With the guidance of your heart, you can make quality decisions and your life will be more fun. Being alive in the heart is what makes life worthwhile. When you are in touch with your heartfelt emotions, you find your true core values and enrich your life. -- Freeze-Frame, Doc Childre [via heartmath]

A camel and an elephant meet. The elephant asked the camel: "Why do you have your breasts on your back?"

The camel, clearly irritated, replies: "What a silly question from someone who has his dick on his face."

Atkins diet beats low-fat fare

Multitudes swear by the high-fat, low-carbohydrate Atkins diet, and now a carefully controlled study backs them up: Low-carb may actually take off more weight than low-fat and may be surprisingly better for cholesterol, too.

Berkeley Labs.  Discovery may yield full spectrum solar cell.  Extremely interesting if it pans out.  Basically, some new work in materials technology for LEDs has led to the development of a low cost compound that works across the full spectrum of visible light.  ~70% efficiency vs. ~15-20% currently.   I did a little work on what it would cost to power my home, and I found that a $14k system would supply about 1/3 of my needs using existing solar cell technology.  If similar price points are in place (based on the size of the panels) with a more efficient system, I could buy a system that supplies all of my needs and provide a recoupment of 100% of the investment in 4 years (and that's in New England!).  [John Robb's Radio Weblog]

Checking for Testicular Cancer

Just like breast cancer, early detection of testicular cancer is key to a good prognosis. The warning sign is a lump in one of the testicles. A good time to check for a lump is in the shower or bath - the heat causes the skin to relax, making it easier to feel any changes. Take one testicle at a time and gently roll it between your thumb and first three fingers until you've felt the entire surface. If you notice any unusual mass or hardness in your scrotum, you should immediately go to a doctor and have it examined. The self-exam takes about 30 seconds. You should know that most irregularities found during self- exams are not tumors. So don't be put off by fear of the C word. You should do this every month, especially if you're a man between 15 and 45.
