Everyone, at some point in their life, will encounter age related health issues. We're always learning more about the human body and what it needs to function in tip-top shape, and so healthcare and nutrition actually getting better as we age. What may have been an unavoidable health condition in your grandfather's time is either being studied closely or easily treated nowadays. Some look at old age and the related maladies with fear; many don't recognize that there is no cause for concern if you're aware of health tips and tricks throughout life that anyone can learn. While you might still be relatively young, there are approximately 50 million people in the USA who are 65 years of age and older. This is not only a timely topic with the recent COVID-19 pandemic, but it's also information...

The coronavirus known as COVID-19 is causing a pandemic, and in response, a general lockdown is in effect, with millions of Americans quarantined and numerous businesses closed to protect public health. While medical supplies and hospitals are under strain, the healthcare system is doing all it can to help the sick, and in the meantime, working Americans (including you) should remember that it's not just health being affected right now; it's also finances. While the general American economy and Wall Street are beyond the control of everyday Americans like yourself, you can and should keep an eye on your spending and make sure you don't sink deep into debt or get any property repossessed. The COVID-19 pandemic is hitting some households harder than others, but in general, the following are ...

As summer comes to a close, there a couple of things we won't miss. Among them are mosquitoes. We take time during the spring and summer to repair holes in window screens or doors to make sure the bloodthirsty insects don't slip through. Sometimes successfully, other times not so much. As it turns out, in Big Sky, Montana, there are much larger creatures that windows and doors should be secured from. At Buck's T-4 Lodge in Big Sky, one such intruder got into the hotel via shimmying its way through a ladies' bathroom window that was apparently ajar. The culprit, a young black bear, got into the bathroom and, instead of leaving, it chose to hop onto the bathroom counter and lie down for a snooze in the sink. Hotel employees sought to let the bear leave on its own terms, but it was ve...

Many Americans are rather obsessed with the idea of preserving their youth and beauty. With 1.1 million laser hair removal procedures performed throughout the U.S. during 2016, it's clear we're focused on maintaining our appearance. And in many cases, we're willing to go to great lengths for the sake of our looks. But according to a new study, our penchant for plastic surgery and cosmetic procedures may not merely be rooted in our own vanity. It could actually be tied to widespread age discrimination -- in other words, our systemic fear of aging. Plastic surgery is becoming more widely accepted, with more people willing to go under the knife (or needle). The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery reports that U.S. residents spent more than $15 billion dollars on combined surgica...

In 2017, there were approximately 11.6 million youth participants (aged between six and 17 years) in fishing in the United States. Although there are a staggering number of people who may not want to admit how dire global warming might be, there's little doubt that we're starting to feel the effects. From increased instances of flooding to extended allergy seasons, scientists are quick to point out that it can all be traced back to climate change. And as ocean temperatures continue to rise, there's another consequence of our unwillingness to protect the planet: the practice of fishing may be in real trouble. So whether you're one of the 49 million Americans who participate in freshwater, saltwater, or fly fishing as a hobby during the average year or you contribute to (or benefit from) the...

American artists appear in 40% of art collections worldwide. Glass mosaics have been in use for ages. In fact, this work of art dates back more than 300 years before the birth of Christ. Few people would ever expect such a traditional piece of art to appear in the middle of the road. But that's exactly what Chicago artist, Jim Bachor, has done. He first became intrigued by the long lifespan and durability of mosaics after visiting Pompeii, which featured these works of art from more than 2,000 years ago. After learning how to create beautiful Mosaics from Italy, has used this superpower to fill potholes since 2013. Bachor has created a variety of mosaics, many of which feature comforting images like cats, foods, and flowers. He claims that the goal of his work is to put a smile on th...

Contrary to what you might think, the workplace can be rather dangerous for many of us. You don't have to be employed in a hazardous field to get hurt on the job, of course. And if you do slip and fall at work, you could be among the 5% of people who fracture a bone as a result. But these kinds of accidents aren't the only ways we can experience negative physical effects as a result of our employment. In fact, your job could be the very thing that's infringing on your self-esteem and your long-term health. According to recent data, roughly 50% of Americans say they're unsuccessful at losing weight because they lack self-discipline. But as one study revealed, failing to reach our weight loss goals may not be entirely because we're not dedicated enough. In some cases, it could be because ...
