What are those purple circles we see on athletes competing in the Olympics? It's Cupping, which pulls on skin to improve your blood flow. The possible placebo effect is said to be an ancient Chinese holistic treatment that works because I have had it done to me several times. The color varies on how much blood is absorbed by the skin. The bruise lasts for several days and it is not painful.

Latino Vote

Are #HispanosUnidosdeAmerica Latinos united? According to The AP, It's a persistent paradox in American politics: Many Hispanic families have an immense personal stake in what happens on Election Day, but despite population numbers that should mean political power, Hispanics often can't vote, aren't registered to vote, or simply choose to sit out.

FAMILY VALUES

Submitted by ub on

The Olympics has once again shown the world that we are a global family with inherent values. There is not need to cheat just to win medals. If we have learned one thing for sure, its that oping is for dopes.

COMPASSION FOR ALL INTERACTIONS WITH AND AMONG EVERYONE SHOULD BE BASED ON OUR CONTINUOUSLY RENEWED CAPACITY TO BE OPEN TO THE FULL RANGE OF INDIVIDUAL NEEDS, CIRCUMSTANCES, AND POTENTIAL.

DIGNITY FOR EACH PERSON'S RIGHTS AND SPIRITUAL PREFERENCES ARE TREATED WITH RESPECT, HONOR, AND FAIRNESS.

Reject Isms

Just say no to the fifth digit; the little finger or tiny toe. Our modern world demands digital democracy. The days of intimidation, mob rule and total control must be left behind. Trust me, I have lived under a dictatorship, communism but will always and forever vote for a democratic way of life.

The isms are a distinctive philosophy, typically a political ideology or a movement. "of all the isms, Totalitarianism, Communism and Fascism are the most repressive.

The first ancient Olympic Games were played on 776 BC. dedicated to the Olympian gods and staged on the ancient plains of Olympia. This practice continued for 12 centuries until Emperor Theodosius decreed in 393 A.D. that all such pagan cults be banned. The Games were religious festivals of the cult of Zeus, and had a secular character and aimed to show the physical qualities and evolution of the performances.

The @Olympics were transformed into a time when politics was placed aside, while the world celebrated its finest athletes. One world one dream!

Meet Depressed

Submitted by ub on

Americans are depressed and frustrated with the state of our current political climate that has reached new lows, with leaders scrambling to persuade their nominees to stick to the issues, to abandon attacks and negative tactics which have caused low morale among the US electorate.

We realize that political campaigns and elections are not supposed to be fun, but they should always reaffirm what’s best about democracy.
