When raising quail there are a lot of variables that have to come together to keep your quail healthy. Most quail breeders first think about getting their eggs to hatch and then being able to keep the quail, disease free. These are very important factors when raising quail and do require a significant amount of knowledge and proper management. But there is also another very dangerous problem that can occur…
Learning requires focus, and focus requires attention to what is being studied, thought about, formulated, and written. It is a process that occurs with intent and conscious involvement, and cannot be rushed no matter how much any student would like for it to be. Yet as any instructor knows, being enrolled in a class, especially an online class, is rarely the only responsibility a student has in any given week.…
Mantras for meditation are an ancient way of aligning yourself with your inner power and allowing the goodness from the universe into your life. What is a Mantra? A Mantra is a sound that you make when you meditate to aid with concentration. It makes it easier for you to connect with your inner power, and helps stop your mind wandering.

If you always have a tight schedule and you need to submit articles or requirements on the dot, chances are, you work like a dog overnight because your boss might take this as negligence on your part. Normally, what you usually do is drink a cup of coffee just to fight back sleep. Now, there may be times that you would want to fight back sleep without coffee, but you…
Messaging Aristotle said that man is a “social animal” and a “linguistic animal.” This convention is so anchored in our perception that it is hard to believe when psychologists claim that 90% of our communication is not verbal at all. The meaning of this fact is simple – we communicate and transmit many messages, without uttering a word. Chazal (the old Talmudic sages) said that life and death are in…
These days, blogging services like Google Blogger and WordPress are advertising their simplicity and ease of use. They say you can create a blog in 3 steps and 5 minutes. If it’s so fast and simple, anyone can be a blogger, right? Well, no. Words such as these are very misleading. It probably doesn’t occur to many people that maintaining a blog is far more complicated and time-consuming than the…
Black and white thinking is sometimes referred to as absolutist or dichotomous thinking. In this kind of thinking, something is all right, or all wrong, all good, or all bad. If you are not a total success, then you are a complete failure. There is no middle ground, regardless of situation or context. It is as if there is only hot water or cold water, no degrees of warm water.…
Birthday, by Wislawa Szymborska – if one were to describe it in one word, it is simply a most exquisite poem, so full of exuberance, so full of the gifts of God’s bounty, so full of happy gaiety, so full of marvel, that it is natural for the poem to be a hearty outburst in its lyrical note and the alliterative use of language. One picture after another comes gushing…
Let’s begin with a good health definition in general. The WHO health definition (World Health Organization), albeit from 1948: “Health is a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity”. Assuming that’s true, what’s the definition of physical health and does good health naturally mean that “all natural” is good, especially as it applies to food? What’s the definition of physical…
I do not believe there are “good” and “bad” foods. There are foods that are good for you, specifically, in that they nourish you and agree with your make up and there are choices that are better for you than others. But I don’t believe in demonizing any foods or making any foods off limits. That’s a sure way to make them irresistible. In Today is Still the Day I…
