Men's Health Week
- The purpose of Men's Health Week is to heighten the awareness of
preventable health problems and encourage early detection and treatment of
disease among men and boys. This week gives health care providers, public
policy makers, the media, and individuals an opportunity to encourage men
and boys to seek regular medical advice and early treatment for disease and
injury. The response has been overwhelming with hundreds of awareness
activities in the USA and around the globe. For a partial list of
activities, click

Digital TV Begins Today |
|
|
By
law, full-power
television
stations
nationwide must
begin
broadcasting
exclusively in a
digital format
by June 12,
2009. The U.S.
Congress
approved an
extension of the
deadline, which
was originally
set for February
17. Digital
television,
known as DTV, is
an innovative
type of
broadcasting
technology that
provides
crystal-clear
pictures and
sound, and more
programming
choices than
ever before.
While the
benefits of
digital
television are
remarkable,
millions of
households risk
losing
television
reception unless
they take the
easy steps to
receive a
digital signal.
Please look for
the information
about how to
join the digital
TV age

Weekly Update
We will talk a lot in the coming weeks and months

At the Licensing Show in Vegas
Something that has really made me angry
in the past few days is that some "reporter" has been
calling my wife's family members and telling them that
he has a "credible source" that claims that I am being
locked and sequestered in my home and am being sedated.
Can you believe this crap?......... |

Bigger Than Hate
The event at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum on
Wednesday, June 10, 2009, was tragic, but the opportunity to raise one’s
thoughts above the lowliness of small, fearful, egocentric, false
self-supremacy is there for each of us........

Las Vegas Kabbalah Centre
Weekly Insight
Many
newcomers to Kabbalah get so excited that they start
pushing this wisdom down the throats of friends &
family, who eventually choke. What students eventually
realize is, it's not about helping people see our truth,
but about helping them see THEIR truth....... |

Dad And Me
Although my dad and I loved each other, we certainly did
not have a Hallmark card relationship. Long walks in the
country, father/daughter teas, and hearts and flowers
were for someone else. We hung out at ham radio shacks,
haunted record stores for the latest vinyl, and had
political “discussions” that had the neighbors quaking
in fear....... |

conversation, but aside from skin cancer, prostate cancer is the most

In
December of 2006, Barack Obama’s book The Audacity Of Hope
became the number one best-seller on the NY Times
non-fiction list. I read the book and loved it. I was
already an Obama fan from watching his keynote address at
the Democratic Convention in 2004 and reading a number of
his speeches that were posted on his website.......
