Because of a possible salmonella outbreak, Clif Bar, purveyor of energy and supplement bars has issued a voluntary recall on many of its products. From the Clif site:
Yesterday we discussed a few simple ways to adjust your diet to adhere to a "lose weight" New Years resolution and start shaving inches off that waistline. Today we'll delve into the world of starting a new workout routine to start getting some tone.
We're all feeling the strain of this economic time, so shelling out over $100/month to workout with a bunch of sweaty dudes powerlifting 900 pounds may not sound so appealing.
Thanks to the Internet and it's infinite supply of information (all of it true, I'm sure :)...) you can find a workout routine that is right for you. Here's a simple yet effective 15-minute routine to kick off your 2009 resolution.
According to USA.gov, the top New Year's resolution is to lose weight and get fit. For some, it's merely getting back into jogging or going to the gym more. For others, the task is daunting: cutting back on favorite foods, quitting smoking, walk/bike to work, etc.
WSi wants you to know that if, indeed, your 2009 resolution was to get fit, we're here to help. Losing weight, toning up, and feeling healthy can actually be fun. And since January 18th - 24th is Healthy Weight Week, we thought there's no time like the present to get going on this!
Here at WSi Healthcare Personnel, we pride ourselves in the high quality candidates we deliver to healthcare facilities in the Rocky Mountain Region and surrounding areas. It is through a rigorous and thorough screening process we are able to select the most qualified people and match them with the institution that will best highlight their abilities. So when we hear that nurses we've helped find employment are awarded, we are thrilled!
In its 11th annual survery, Men's Fitness Magazine has named Salt Lake City, Colorado Springs, and Denver among the nation's fittest cities.

These are the things we're supposed to do to remove the cholesterol around our brain & try to slow up Alzheimer.
Here's a great little test. You may not get 100% on the first go, but keep trying until you do. It'll wak you up and get your keen thinking and decisivness in order...at least for the day.
Hint: It takes an average of 5 tries to get to 100%. Follow the directions.
It's harder than it seems, as it should be!

Seriously..
Obviously eating an apple a day provides your body with all-natural goodness, vitamins, and a slew of healthy ingredients. ONLY eating an apple day, you may suffer from malnutrition, though, so keep that in mind.
Doing a little more research into new and exciting (not to mention fun) therapy practices has opened the flood gates. It isn't any fun being sick. Wouldn't you like a bit of sunshine in your life?
The medical world is vast and ever-growing, each day adding new certifications and specializations to its already expansive portfolio. Wherever one's interests lie, there is most definitely a way to parlay them into the field of medicine in some aspect. Take, for example, Music Therapy.
It's that time of year again and according to Fox News, this flu season is particularly harsh. Hospitals are seeing a record number of people pour into its ERs with stomach pains and ailments all related to this season's flu virus. Read the full article now at MyFoxColorado.com.
It's rough out there. Employers are being inundated with hundreds (possibly thousands) of resumes for each open position they have. It's a harrowing time to be looking for a job. But here are a few important tips to remember to aid you along the job search path.
Remain Positive
Confidence is crucial! Keep your chin up regardless of what happens. Walk into your interviews thinking, "This job is mine!" Walk out of the interview thinking, "I nailed that!" Employers are looking for motivated prospects, not desperate drones.
With the excitement and anticipation of ringing in a joyous 2009, it's easy to get caught up in excess. We're not here to lecture anyone. All we're doing is saying be safe tonight and use your best judgement. However, if you feel that even your best judgement might be tested tonight, make sure beforehand to go out with either a sober friend or confirmed plans you will be safe by the end of the night.
