Literally. One study, conducted by Dr. Mike Miller from the University of Maryland Medical Center in Baltimore, shows that listening to music can “create a feeling of well being, which affects the vascular system.” It has the same effect that laughing has on our hearts. Miller found that when patients watched funny movies and laughed, it “open up blood vessels, allowing blood to circulate more freely.” This is the exact response we want in our bodies.

At first, I thought maybe it was a bad joke or something. But no, it’s not. In an effort to turn a tragedy into a PR opportunity, the organization formerly known as the National Mental Health Association figured it was a good time to issue a press release. To help ease holiday shopper’s possible anxiety. It just feels… wrong. It’s a rare tragedy. Respect should be shown to those families who lost their family members. I mean, some of those families haven’t even buried the people who died in the tragedy. And then they open the paper to see something like this. While I&#82...

If you ask around, there are many who will recommend some Windows mobile phone like the something from HTC (e.g. the Dopods). For those that don’t know better, there’s an alternative to Windows mobile PDA phones. I strongly recommend the Treo 680. It’s the best value for money PDA phone at present. Palm OS may be a little old but it’s reasonably stable. Big plus points of this phone are: - Ease of use 2/3 of the time using a PDA phone, one does it for PIM - Personal Information Management.
