Antioxidants & Sun Block – Anti-aging/Anti-Cancer Skin Protection
by Carol Lynne Fouad – Licensed Aesthetician (Sakani Spa and Salon)

If your physician informed you that your heart was at risk, would you heed his advice and protect this vital organ any way you could…..perhaps by eating a healthier diet, taking dietary supplements (or medication as needed) and taking an evening walk for exercise?  Well, if you value your life, I bet you would!   Matter of fact, if the doctor told you that you would look years younger and appear more vibrant if you would do those simple things to improve your health……and if in fact that proved true…….you would applaud his genius.  You would be grateful for your health and admire the reflection in the mirror…..the outward sign of improved health.  That just makes sense.

Our coworkers do matter!
by Barry Bailey

In the competitive world of business, many people underestimate the impact our coworkers have on our careers. People who do understand coworker impact tend to climb the corporate latter quicker than those who don’t. So, if we identify the need for coworker involvement, how do we cultivate positive relationships?

Help is on the way for troubled homeowners
by Bernard Berrier

Home-mortgage delinquencies and foreclosures have been surging in recent months, especially for people who took out subprime mortgages — higher-priced loans for people with poor credit or low incomes who are considered greater risks. The distress has concerned financial markets and caused anxiety that it could spill over into the broader economy.
