Tuesday, May 25, 2010. Over the years, I have experienced a number of dental problems and, as a result, have a few crowns and missing back teeth. I do not enjoy going to the dentist, but I visit him regularly, floss, and use Sensodyne toothpaste. In a recent column, Dr. Oz provided a few additional ways of protecting our teeth and gums from decay and infection. Use tap water instead of bottled water. The former has more enamel-protecting fluoride than store-bought water. Friday, May 21, 2010. In a separa...

Friday, February 26, 2010. To keep those bouquets around for awhile, consider the following tips:. Get flowers from a reliable source. Grocery stores may be convenient, but do not always have the freshest flowers. Strip away any leaves that will be below the water line in the vase- they produce bacteria that kills buds faster. Put a floral food such as Floralife. Keep flowers in a cool spot. Avoid placing them next to air conditioners or anywhere with extreme temperature fluctuations. To increase the fib...

Friday, December 18, 2009. We, Angels and Mortals, Believers and Nonbelievers,. Look heavenward and speak the word aloud. Peace We look at our world and speak the word aloud.

Monday, August 31, 2009. If Students Wrote the Bible. Instead of God creating the world in six days and resting on the seventh, He would have put it off until the night before and pull an all-nighter. The Last Supper would have been eaten the next morning- cold. The Ten Commandments would actually be only five- double-spaced and written in a large font. To limit reselling, a new edition would be published every two years. Forbidden fruit would have been eaten because it wasn't cafeteria food. Report your...
