*** Check out your body type to know which sport is easier for you to excel.
From Denny: This was an odd news story. Studying sports seems to be a never ending fascination, especially for coaches who are always trying to figure out how to make athletes better. Turns out there are some observations that help determine an athlete's greater success in a particular sport: where their belly button is located. Where your center of gravity is located really does determine your athletic success.
I told you this was an odd story. :) Seriously though, what was found is that a person with a physique of a long torso and shorter legs was better at swimming. A person with a shorter torso and longer legs was better at running.
Best swimmers: long torso (low center of gravity), usually European origin
Best runners: short torso, long legs (high center of gravity), usually African origin

From Denny: When so many people hear that dreaded diagnosis of cancer, it's good to know that doctors are winning the war on cancer day by day. Here are the latest stats to prove it! They have made great strides of dramatic improvement on certain types of cancers and pushed the meter upward on survival rates on others. Take a look:
From Denny: These were some really good email questions sent in and aired in this news broadcast. I've been wondering too about possible side effects. Yet the flu has now hit college campuses with a vengeance and over 110 children have died nationwide. Whether to take this vaccine or not is a real dilemma for many to consider. I still have my doubts about it all as the virus is mutating. That said if you have a weak immune system or various chronic conditions then a flu shot that might help may be a better choice than no flu shot.
From Denny: Continuing in the series of his fascinating lecture...
Once you start studying what the Kabbalah has to say about how spiritual principles operate, the stories recounted below will make more sense to you. There are three levels of healing available to us and the healings recounted below are about what comes from the highest level of the superconscious - the soul level. Takes a lot of practice - decades - to achieve this level but it can be done. This is the level of what appears to be spontaneous healing because it happens so quickly.
"Spiritual teachers, mystics, and holy people from all over the world have known for centuries that the Force of the Miraculous likes to accumulate in certain people. No one knows why this happens. When this happens, miracles happen around these people on an astonishingly regular basis.
Sri Matajhi Indira Devi was the wife of the Indian ambassador to England. She was a very wealthy and powerful woman even by American standards. She found however, that strange and mysterious events happened around her with regularity. She saw visions, heard voices, and was carried off into mysterious rapturous experiences for hours at a time. Her family hired the best medical doctors that it could find to help her but her condition only worsened.
One day, she met a Holy Man who explained to her that the Force of the Miraculous had chosen her as a vessel and that she needed to be taught how to use the force to help others. Over time, she left her comfortable life and spent the rest of her life learning to master the power of this force. I met her in August of 1994 in Pune, India.
Among her many miracles, she was able to create a spring of clear drinkable water in the middle of a field that had been previously surveyed as barren. She miraculously healed the bodies of hundreds of natives that had been injured through accident or illness. She produced statues made of solid silver out of thin air.
I was introduced to her through a friend that had been the recipient of one of her miracles. He had been diagnosed with a brain abscess and was given days to live. "Ma", a she is called, healed his lesions in hours with a single touch. History is full of people who have been designated as carriers of the Force of the Miraculous. "Ma" is not the only person that I have personally met who carries this force.
I met a man in Las Vegas who can touch slot machines and ask them to give him money. I have seen him do this, twice. It is how he makes his living. The internet is a wonderful tool. Use it to find people who are reported to have miraculous ability. Doing this has enriched my life immensely.
I have met a man who can talk to the sky and ask for rain anytime he wants it. I have seen him do that. It is a sight to behold. I relay these examples for a reason. In order to make the Force of the Miraculous work for us, it is important for us to educate ourselves as to what it is and how it works in the world."

From Denny: Now if this isn't the "strange but true" category! CNN's Elizabeth Cohen reports on an unusual procedure that helps restore vision to the blind. Apparently, there is something about the tissue in the tooth that is compatible with this unusual procedure and helps restore sight to those who experience cornea damage. It doesn't help other types of blindness though. You have to watch this video to believe it; the diagram of how the tooth fits into the eye helps it all make more sense.

However, it is suggested you discuss your health issue with a doctor in person who specializes in vein treatment or phlebology. You need to fully understand which treatment choices are best for your particular condition. In these type of cases, each case involving varicose veins is not the same."
From Denny: Very useful overview of a common problem, especially for women after pregnancy. New solutions to age old problems. Often, varicose and spider veins run in families. Yes, today there are solutions so you don't have to feel uncomfortable in a swimsuit at the beach this season! Take a look.
From Denny: All I can say is Awesome! This is quite a feat of engineering and medicine - and perserverance on the part of the patient. She still faces another two years of surgery. This was the first phase just for reconstructive ability to be able to smell again, to eat and drink normally again - all things the rest of us take for granted. Take a look.
From Denny: What a lot of women want to know. Many women start careers and desire to put off having children until financially secure. An interview with Dr. Jennifer Ashton. This blood test is currently available only from your doctor, any where from $100 to $400. They hope to bring it to over-the-counter status soon. Remember: Life style choices like smoking can accelerate the onset of menopause. Informative short video!
"Chronic pain can make us feel isolated and helpless, especially if its cause is an illness or physical condition for which there's no cure or effective medical treatment.

At times of deepest despair, finding ways to nurture our spirits can help us not only cope with the pain, but also discover nuggets of grace, comfort, and productivity that can move us through and beyond the helplessness and hopelessness we feel.
Here are ten spiritual tools that can help you get started toward peace in spite of and in the midst of pain."
By Maureen Pratt
From Denny: For anyone who has suffered a car accident to a debilitating illness this article reminds us to focus again upon how the simple things can lift our spirits out of the pain. Take a look. She also has a website and has written several books about chronic pain for specific situations.
