The politics of food is changing fast. In rich countries, obesity is now a more serious problem than hunger. Consumers once satisfied with cheap and convenient food now want food that is also safe, nutritious, fresh, and grown by local farmers using fewer chemicals. Heavily subsidized and underregulated commercial farmers are facing stronger push back from environmentalists and consumer activists, and food companies are under the microscope. Meanwhile, agricultural… More >>

“Throughout the ages, many things have been used as currency: livestock, grains, spices, shells, beads, and now paper. But only two things have ever been money: gold and silver. When paper money becomes too abundant, and thus loses its value, man always turns back to precious metals. During these times there is always an enormous wealth transfer, and it is within your power to transfer that wealth away from you or toward you.” –Michael Maloney, precious metals … More >>
Update: Yes the healthcare bill HR3962 passed. Now it’s up to us to do all we can to repeal it!! This video is based on HR3200 but it is very closely related to HR3962 with the exception that HR3962 is deemed to be worse yet. If we don’t get this bill thrown in the trash where it belongs we can expect to see much if not all of what this video shows us. THE PDF.OF THE BILL HR3200 NOTED AT THE END OF THE VIDEO IS NO LONGER VALID. HERE IS THE UPDATED LINK TO THE PDF. candicemiller.house.gov I am well aware of the typeo in this video, I apologize but It’s too late to fix it now. Healthcare is only a powerful stepping stone to their government takeover plan. Open your eyes America, they don’t care what “we the people” want or need, they simply want control. Aug. 2009 Original Bill (Video) :This is a point by point description (A guide not the actual reading of the bill!) of the Government Healthcare plan taken from the ACTUAL proposed bill HR3200candicemiller.house.gov Though not opposed to healthcare reform most Americans do not want this KIND of reform which is a dangerous UN-AMERICAN UNCONSTITUTIONAL We want reform that makes sense and that is helpful for all not a destructive death warrant for the unborn and the elderly. We want government to stay out of our personal life decisions period. This is America !!

Facebook.com – Become a Fan! Celebrities Wearing Wigs – Do you know who wears one? Call me Nancy Drew, because I’ve uncovered some serious scoop. I’ll tell you which of your favorite celebs are rockin wigs. That’s all up next on ClevverTV! Hey guys, I’m Joslyn Davis and you’re back at ClevverTV. No one really talks about it, but let’s face the facts…everybody’s doing it. Yes, most of the Hollywood starlets you love have amazing hairstyles, but I’m here to fill you in a little secret. More than half of them are wearing full-fledged wigs, extensions, or at least some small amount of fake hair. It was breaking news when people like Miley Cyrus and Lauren Conrad admitted to having extensions. And even Selena Gomez is known to rock long brunette hair pieces too from time to time…I mean come on guys, with a lot of these gorgeous gals, it’s pretty obvious. One day a bob. The next day waist-length locks…Other extension lovers include: Ashley Tisdale, Ashley Greene, and basically every other girl in Hollywood with really long, beautiful hair. And while extensions are used by almost everyone in the business and very widely accepted and talked about, not everyone is willing to admit to wearing full-on wigs. Miley Cyrus did let the world know that Katy Perry was rockin’ a wig at the recent Kids Choice Awards – so there’s one celeb we know of. But did you know that Miss Beyonce herself wears wigs almost all the time? From what we hear, she gets that amazing looking hair style by …

Here are my weekly money savings tips:
1. Maintain a good credit score! It will save you thousands of dollars in the short and long term when you need to borrow money to buy a car or a home. Creditors will give you an interest rate and the loan amount based on your income and credit score.
2. Large sums of money should NEVER be left in a checking account or even a low-interest bank savings account. Rather, put the money into a high interest savings account (like an ING savings), money market fund, or other forms of short term high interest investments with a fixed return.
3. If you have an employer matching 401K plan, maximize your contributions, so that you double your money!
4. Set aside 10% of your paycheck towards some form of long term savings account, like a money market account, mutual fund, retirement plan, or 401K. As you pay amount increases, your contribution will also increase automatically. 10% will also ensure that you stay ahead of inflation.
5. One of the best investments you can make is to first pay off all your high credit card debts. Credit cards typically carry a high interest rate and by paying off these debts, you get one of the best returns available which also is tax-free.
6. If you are losing sleep over an investment, whether its a stock, mutual fund, or retirement plan, its not worth it! Your lack of sleep is probably a good indication that it may be too risky, too good to be true, or just not the right invesment for you.
7. If an investment is projecting returns that are just too good to be true, they probably are. Unless you are intimately involved in the investment or are an insider, an investment that sounds too good to be true is probably too ambitious, too risky or just a scam.
8. Before you invest in something, always do your own research. Consulting with others and getting a second opinion is good, but you need to investigate for yourself. The internet is typically the best source for lots of information but make sure you read enough or get relevant data.
9. Always negotiate for commissions or fees paid for financial or real estate advice. Don’t be misled by standard commissions and “non-negotiable fees”. It is your money and the experts work for you.
10. Can’t get out of debt? If you are having problems meeting your debt payments each month and feel like you are digging a deeper hole, go talk to your creditors and banks to find a solution to get out of the mess. Beware of debt consolidators as they could charge higher interests in the long term and get you even deeper into debt.
