Dangers of Cell Phones?

Over the years I have heard a lot of scare stories about the dangers of cell phones. Many of these stories have to do with using a cell phone while driving. personally I don't see talking on a cell phone as being any more distracting than changing a CD, talking to passengers in the back seat or talking on a two way radio. But that's just my opinion.

One of the hazards that I do see as real however is the exposure to the electromagnetic field generated by the radio transmitter in the phone. While this field is much less than a typical walkie talkie or other two way radio, we do spend more time on our wireless devices than ever before.

The constant exposure to these fields in close proximity to the body like holding a cordless phone to your head or sitting your wireless Internet connection in your lap or storing your blackberry in your pocket can possibly disrupt the bodies energy field. Some researchers suggest that the dangers of electromagnetic radiation are more dangerous than smoking. Read more about these hazards in this article.....

In order to combat the possible effects of this disruption, we need to make sure we are giving our bodies the right raw materials so that its natural healing mechanisms can work properly.

Two major players in the bodies repair system are calcium and Pycnogenol®.

Travel to Ireland

We recently traveled to Ireland to watch our son Will perform in the St Patrick's day parade in Dublin.

The country of Ireland is beautiful and green. We found most of the people there to be very friendly and helpful. They all had a playful sense of humor.

We enjoyed touring the ruined castles and the cliffs of Moher.

For some details on the trip see the Bradley Band website, http://www.bradleyband.org/

Unity

This past Sunday I was initiated into membership at Unity of Chattanooga.

Unlike others churches I have joined in the past, I actually felt a tingle come over me as I received the blessing from Pastor Doug and the congregation.

I see Unity as more of a learning center than a church. I guess because I have always felt a sense of negativity connected with the church in the past. Now as part of the Unity movement, I feel I have the tools and knowledge to fully embrace the Christ Spirit in me.

Jeep Preventive maintenance

Last night while doing some Christmas shopping, I heard a huge noise from under the hood of my Jeep. It would go away if I revved the engine and return at idle.

Since I was in the middle of holiday traffic I drove on a few miles before I checked it.

When I opened the hood I found the idler pulley had spit out its bearings.

The thing I found most interesting was that there was no warning. There was no squeak or roar before the bearing separated. I have heard others squeak for years without failure.

So I am now recommending that this part be changed as a matter of preventative maintenance. Luckily I was able to drive mine to the perts store and them back to the shop. I would hate to have been stranded in holiday traffic if the belt had slipped off.

See my post on http://indupord.blogspot.com for a special holiday offer.
