Have A Great Day Everyday!

You can have a great day every day. The late Norman Vincent Peale believed that the way in which one begins a day determines how the day is going to go.     He said we can overcome any mood of nature, or any negative mood of human nature by filling our minds with the realization that here is a precious thing called a day.     God made this precious, opportunity-filled day. He gives it to you. As time passes, each day becomes more precious.     As you arise, picture the day you want and expect. Visualize it clearly. You get what you are looking for.  What you project in your mind as a probability is likely to result in fact.     If you started today with gloomy thoughts, let thoughts of anticipation surge through your mind. See what the day can become.     Each morning, you face a new beginning. Put the past behind you.  Take some nice memories along, but leave all other things at the door of the new day.     One reason people have nervous breakdowns or become burned out

How To Save Your Sinuses

You've got holes in your head! No offense, you really do. They're your sinuses, one above each eye, one below, and two on each side of the nose.     Sinuses are lined with membranes that produce mucus, the stuff that keeps your breathing apparatus from getting dry. Mucus flows freely in and out of the sinuses, but if you have a cold or allergies, you've got trouble.     Blockage of sinus openings trap bacteria that are normally harmless, but now multiply and cause infection, fever, headache, facial pain and more, according to the Division of Allergy and Immunology at St. Louis University School of Medicine.     To prevent infection, keep sinuses open.

Hot fluids like chicken soup are even better because of the steam.     Add moisture to the air:

Food of the Month: Lean Pork

Move over chicken, pork is making a big impact on heart-healthy mealtime. According to Duke University researchers, studies show that today's leaner pork fits into a low-fat diet and may even help individuals lower blood cholesterol levels.     Because of misconceptions, some consumers may not choose pork as part of a heart-healthy diet.

Today, it is 31 percent leaner than it was just 10 years ago.     Fresh cuts like pork loin, tenderloin and chops go well with a wide variety of flavors and ethnic seasonings, making great flavor combinations.     International dry rub mixes add great taste and few calories.
