The Power is Mine

Shrink Yourself offers some tips about regaining personal power. The site says that once we realize we are not powerless over food, we can learn to make good decisions. And I can say for sure, that's true. I've been working on myself, and I've learned it's my choice. I am not powerless over a cupcake.

Last night I had another dream in which I was in control. In the dream, someone I know accused me of taking something which I didn't take. She had this little fishing rod, and she said that since I was the last person to touch it, and she had lost it, I should pay for it. I refused. I took her to the truck she had been loading things into and showed her that the fishing rod was still it in it. Then I said, "Now I think you owe me something." She said nothing. I said, "That's what I thought." But I was in control.

If you really want to lose weight, you have to realize you are the only one who has the power to do it. I have found that The Secret also helps people find their power. This way of thinking has brought me to a new place.

I am still doing the Belly Fat Cure. You can also follow Jorge on Facebook.

Sugar Links to Cholesterol and Just about Everything Else Unhealthy

My personal challenge update: I've written seven articles. I'm a little behind. I've exercised at least nine times. I've cut way back on sugar and plan to cut even more. I'm going to do Jorge Cruise's The Belly Fat Cure plan. A bunch of us at work will be doing this plan. And we really need it. We eat way to much sugar there. Someone always has candy, cookies, or cake. We've gotten way out of hand with our eating. It's time to get it under control.

We've found a couple of articles about the effects of sugar on health. Did you know that sugar has a link to cholesterol levels? Are you one of those people who's tried everything to lower your bad cholesterol and up the good to no avail?  It's the sugar--not the fat--that you've got to cut. A new study just out in JAMA shows the link.

Also, I've deactivated my Facebook page for now.I have some privacy concerns. I'll let you know when and if I ever put it back up.

Pope Benedict XVI Use Facebook Page As Media To Draw On To The Youth

Pope Benedict Facebook PagePope Benedict XVI, using the Facebook social network to run the religious mission. Through Facebook as the media, followed by hundreds of millions of people from all over the world, Pope invites the young Catholic servant to return to the church.

New Vatican Website www.pope2you.net offers a service called 'The Pope meets you on Facebook'. This service allows people to access the Pope Benedict XVI's speeches, greetings and messages through iPhone or Ipod.

This is a new pattern of communication that is run by Vatican.

Monsignor Paul Tighe, secretary of the Vatican’s Social Communications department said, "We recognize that a church that does not communicate ceases to be a church", "Many young people today are not turning to traditional media like newspapers and magazines any more for information and entertainment. They are looking to a different media culture, and this is our effort to ensure that the Church is present in that communications culture."

However, Pope's Facebook is not the same as the facebook service used by the public. You will not receive a 'friend request' from the Pope or write in his wall.

B on facebook...

Last week, a The B-Life reader sent around this facetious take on facebook, or in this case "pensionbook". While social networking sites like MySpace and facebook definitely have their benefits, one has to ask when it's gotten a little out of control. Advanced technology allows us to create and foster several relationships simultaneously at a much faster pace due to ease of communication and access to everyone at any point in time. Just think - you can send a text message in 7 seconds flat when it used to take 5 days to send a similar message via the US Postal Service back in '95. But while relationships can happen in a New York minute, are they as deep? I mean, just because facebook says you have 535 friends...do you really have 535 friends? Forget baseball, let's address the "pluses" and"minuses" of one of America's new favorite pastimes.

facebook Pros:

-Reconnecting with old friends
-Avoiding the mass email with a "note"
- Sharing photos without creating annoying logins
-Getting a mini-background check on your date
-The wall (now you don't have to memorize a million email addresses!)

facebook Cons:
-You can't do ANYTHING on the slick...(that feed is no joke!)
-Tagged photos - It's too easy to get caught out there looking crazy.
-All those applications - Seriously, what is a funwall/trendsetter/poke? I'm confused!
-"Stalking" is a little too easy
-You can't repeat an outfit - those pics will get you every time.
-Relationship status....it causes drama, plain and simple. Just leave it off - trust me!
-The random "friend" - (who are these people???)

Iffy facebook behavior...
-Shared FB pages - Just because you have a boyfriend, girlfriend, fiancee', or cat doesn't mean you need a dual facebook page.
-Posting photos of your newborn(s) - I mean, it's kinda cute, but shouldn't you be too busy to be on facebook?
-Exchanging more than 4 wall posts - I love the wall, but after a certain point, it's time to pick up the phone or send an email.
