How to Make Your Own Kettlebells

Although kettlebells have been around for over 100 years, in the last five years, they have become one of the major exercise and fitness programs. In fact, most people don’t know that kettle bells used aerobically will burn more calories within a given time frame than any other form of cardio exercise. In a study The American Council on Exercise found  participants burned 272 calories in a 20 minute kettlebell workout. That’s approximately 820 cal an hour which would be near impossible to reach on a treadmill or an elliptical. Kettlebells can be very expensive and  so we are providing some videos that would help you make your own for less than 25% of the normal cost.

 

5 ways to grow an emergency fund

As described by the dollar stretcher.com, If you can’t stomach keeping a significant amount of money in a standard savings account with a low interest rate, consider a money market account that allows withdrawals only at certain minimum levels, or purchase short-term certificates of deposit with three- or six-month terms on a regular basis. You’ll earn some interest and be required to constantly reinvest. MORE

Reading- By Harmon Brody

AN YOU READ THIS? 50% of AMERICA CANNOT. Many were the children left behind from the Bush years when the $5 billion reading initiative he campaigned on never materialized. The promised plan guaranteed that each child would be able to read by 3d grade. It was all part of a fundamental plan to dumb down the Erica we have today. It is an America where 50% of the people, many of them registered voters who are students or are unemployed and also who are on public assistance do not exercise their right to vote. Its the legacy of the Bush administration.

What is really abhorrent as Chris Hayes of MSNBC reported SUNDAY is that most of those that wont vote, like Obama and reject Romney.

This week I asked a few high school grads and college students if they voted last Tuesday, they didn’t, didn’t care and their parents did not either. All of the Black youths did not know or care that Dr. King and many others died so they could vote. There is no excuse for a school system or parent who fails to teach these things, but it is in fact a culmination of dumbing down America.

Sheldon Adelson is Trying to Buy the United States Presidency

So what does Sheldon Adelson want that Romney is willing to deliver in part, and Pres. Obama has not been responsive. Actually there are several things and I will briefly allude to them here but more information can be obtained by clicking on the links at the bottom of this page.
Because he doesn’t have to be identified when donating to a super pack, sources differ on the amount Adelson has donated to date. However, a good estimate is that he has already donated approximately $40 million. He has stated a willingness to donate $100 million in order to place Romney in the White House. That would be the equivalent of the average income family donating $40. So much for a Supreme Court ruling that neglects the very premise of our Constitution. He has joked privately about buying the presidency.
First, Adelson wants the United States Embassy in Israel moved to Jerusalem without consultation with the Israeli government. Romney has agreed to look into it. While Obama has objected in principle.
Secondly, Adelson, will be hundreds of millions of dollars richer (that’s correct, hundreds of millions of dollars) with Romney’s tax plan as opposed to Obama’s.

Third, he wants Romney to openly support the release of Israeli spy Jonathan Pollard. Pollard, was convicted in 1985, of spying for Israel and received a life sentence. A brief description of Pollard and his circumstances were noted on December 22, 2010 in the New York Times.

“Mr. Pollard, who worked for the Navy as a civilian intelligence analyst, began spying for Israel after he approached an Israeli officer in the spring of 1984. He was arrested 18 months later after giving Israel tens of thousands of top-secret documents. He claimed he was trying to protect the Jewish state from its enemies.”

Fourth, Adelson, believes Pres. Obama is turning the country more towards socialism. The irony of this is that one of his major casinos is located in China, which is the epitome of socialism.

Currently, Adelson is under investigation by the United States Justice Department to determine if he violated the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. Of course, Adelson is hoping the investigation will die a natural death with Romney in the White House and keep his billions intact.

The Honors go to Judge Robert Simpson

The honors go to Judge Robert Simpson , who upheld a voter ID law in Pennsylvania simply to give the election to Willard Romney. The federal government sued and there was no evidence presented that there was any voting fraud in Pennsylvania whatsoever. These voter ID movements are designed to restrict voting and are aimed specifically at blacks, Latinos, and the elderly. Judge Robert Simpson, you are a disgrace to the American way of life.
