Pink Crystal Salt
I was watching the Martha Stewart Show the other day and she mentioned that she uses pink salt, an unrefined culinary salt, much like grey salt. Soon after I received my regular newsletter that I subscribe to from Natural News and they gave me the rundown on pink salt. I love it when things just fall into my lap!
I used white table salt almost all of my life. I tried sea salt once and it made my food taste fish. Yuck! Then not too long ago I tried a different brand of sea salt and it did not taste fishy. I love it now! You should be aware, though, per Natural News, there is a scam going around about sea salt. Apparently a few white salt manufactures are promoting their salts as sea salt. While they are not lying, because all salt comes from the sea, if salt is white like white sugar it is highly processed salt. Read the rest of this entry »

Sugar Control Damage – Let’s prevent future trouble!
It appears that more and more people are trying to lessen their refined sugar intake. I receive Dr. Pepi’s health newsletter and just had to share this helpful hint on what to do prior to and after eating sugar.
Unless you have diabetes or some condition that it is essential to exclude sugar, there are those special times that you are going to eat sugar and you know it ahead of time. For example, at a wedding or birthday party or during the holidays. Let’s look at how to pull it off with the least amount of pancreas and liver shock. Those are the two organs most stressed by processed sugars. Drink 2 quarts of water the day before and the day of the event. Water is necessary to make the digestive enzymes you will need to digest sugar. Take 6 Core Level Pancreas and 3 Core Level Liver before your event. For a small child, try 2 Pancreas and 1 Liver. Eat raw food, such as a salad, to add to the digestive enzyme stockpile right before eating the sugar. Eat a good portion of some type of protein before the sugar, such as fish or turkey or eggs. The sugar should be the last thing down the hatch. Read the rest of this entry »

FACEBOOK NEWS FEED: Are your old friends and family getting buried?
If you have hundreds or even thousands of friends on Facebook you may find that the your old friends and family members are nowhere to be found (easily) in your News Feed. Well there is something you can do about that. I explain how to remove friends from your News Feed and how create a new list or separate News Feed where you can chose whomever you wish remain in that Feed.
Deleting each friend one at the time
1. Put your cursor over the right hand side of one of your friend’s messages (perhaps his name is Jack) and you will see the word “Hide”.
2. Click “Hide”. A new window will pop up.
3. Click “Hide Jack”.
That’s it! You will have to do this for each friend you wish to remove from your Feed.
Creating a Separate Favorite’s News Feed
If you have perhaps hundreds or thousands of friends a faster way of finding your long-lost friends is by creating a separate News Feed.

Trademarks and Copyrights: “DO I OWN MY LOGO?”
One of my readers recently asked, “We hired (and paid) a person to design our logo, do we own the copyright?”
As a paralegal, I am not allowed to give out any advice, as I am not an attorney. However, I did find an article that answers the question whether a graphic designer owns a logo / trademark / copyright or the business owner. Of course, you should always consult an attorney specializing in Intellectual Property to be certain that the information is correct. The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) provides information that may help anyone looking to find out about patents, trademarks and copyrights. If you desire to officially trademark a logo, (trademark or service mark) in the U.S. and your business is in the U.S., I provide several references from the USPTO below. I also include the definitions of the different types of trademarks, determined by whether you are providing a service or selling goods. Be sure to read about “Assignments” at the end of this article for possible legal protection. This may benefit you if you wish to file a trademark application. To decide whether your logo is to be copyrighted or trademarked, I have included an extra article that may help you. Read the rest of this entry »
