I had a chat with my friend last week and she mentioned that she rushed an employee to a hospital near their office. She was working as a Quality Assurance officer in a call center and this was not the first time she encountered incident like this. The employee had a mild stroke. It could have been grave if he was not immediately rushed to the hospital. Thank God for the Girl Scout in my friend.

Nowadays, more and more people are having diseases concerning the heart. Strokes could not only happen to older people. As I see it, even young adult can get this disease. How can we avoid this? By eating food rich in Omega 3, or by taking Omega 3 health supplements. Studies shows that Omega 3 reduces the risk of heart attack and stroke, helps in lowering blood pressure, prevent the buildup of plaque in the arteries, and may prevent sudden cardiac death.

I didn’t know the importance of Omega 3 until I’ve read about it. And now that we know its benefits, we should also know where we can get it. There are a number of sources of Omega 3 available including fatty fish and health food supplements like Omax3.

But remember that when purchasing Omega 3 health supplements, make sure that you are purchasing pharmaceutical grade Omega 3 because cheaper, non-pharmaceutical grade brands may have mercury-contaminants and other dangerous substances that can harm your body. Omax3 is 91% pure omega-3. It’s real pharmaceutical-grade supplement which offers optimal, pure and high potency essential fatty acids and DFA. Enhances moods and cognition, benefits healthy heart, and promotes optimal health of joint and immune system.

Start taking Omega 3 supplements now and have a happy and healthy heart.

They offer free blog background for blogspot users without deleting your widgets. All you need to do to make it running is-- you must set your template first to Minima, add a widget and copy the html code of the background. My sister who's new in blogging discovered this and I must say, she's a fast learner. You can check her blog here and see what she did to make it more appealing. :)

Well, you can also see that I've changed my background but did not use minima...see the result? nah..it's okay with me..I think I like it. I still want a 3 column template eh.

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to checking my emails at home since I can't open yahoo here..there seems to be a problem, tomorrow my plans include going to prayer mountain, visiting the village where our house is being constructed and attending the board meeting of our high school alumni association (I'll have a busy Saturday) and Sunday, I want to go jogging (late afternoon) at our sports park with my daughter!

Now that my daughter is turning three this year, the thought of sending her to school is one that's on my mind. I've already inquired with some schools and I was surprised to know how much would it cost me to send her to a good school. But Mr. Sala was true in this article:

Should you pull your youngster out of the secular system and put him into a Christian school? Many parents do--some at great financial cost--because they are convinced that putting their children in a school where God is in and evolution is out, where the days open with prayer, and where teachers are compassionate and caring is worth the personal sacrifice; knowing that their youngster will receive a solid academic foundation. So they make do with fewer clothes, longer working hours and lesser spendings, believing that their sacrifice will someday be rewarded.

Another option that has recently taken off like a locomotive running downhill is home schooling. For years I was not very excited about private Christian education or home schooling. I felt that we as Christians need to be salt and light out there in the world where we can make a difference with our witness.

But as our culture darkened, sinister forces began to make our schools unsafe, and educational competence declined, I began to see how important private Christian schools can be. Knowing that a child is in a Christian environment where teachers are there because of commitment to Christians ideals is important. Teachers in Christian schools are usually motivated by their desire to make a difference in the lives of their students.

Why object to home schooling? I was not sure that all moms could handle it academically, an issue which is still of some concern. I thought that only a superwoman could be teacher, mother and disciplinarian all wrapped up in one. I was also concerned about the youngster's social development. But a growing home school movement brings mothers together, provides social outlets for the kids and provides the youngsters an education that far exceeds anything public education can offer.

Home schooling frees a child from social competition--the "I've-got-to-be-just-like-everybody-else" mentality. It allows him an opportunity to follow Sir Edmund Hillary's wild ride in the ice and snow of the South Pole, retrace the route of the Lewis and Clark expedition or invent the incandescent globe, as Thomas Edison did.

I'm convinced that it can be very beneficial to the student as well as the mother, provided she has the temperament, the education and the time to handle the challenge.

If you have options, explore them fully. Make a list of pros and cons for each one. Lay them before the Lord and say, "Father, this child is a gift from You, and I want to help equip him to know You, love You and serve You all his life. Now, Lord, what's the best thing for us all?"

Insight:
Your child is going to get an education regardless of what happens. It may be one of academic excellence or mediocrity. however, no matter how good or poor the school system he may be in, your input as a parent makes a tremendous difference.
