How old do you think the models are in most anti-aging ads?

October 30, 2009 - 1:31 am 5 Comments

I think Oil of Olay is probably the worst. I am seriously wonder how old some of the women are in these ads. I am 32 and do not need anti-aging cream, some of these women look younger than me…I am thinking on average they are about 28. What do you think?

Carolyn Murphy started doing ads for Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair, their anti-ageing product, when she was only 28 years old.

What are the drills and such you do in a soccer fitness session?

October 30, 2009 - 1:31 am 1 Comment

I’m just wondering, because on the 29th my high school team is having 2 fitness sessions. I am compleatly out of shape for running and stuff like that, do you think I could do a fitness session without passing out? Hahahha

In all likelyhood, it will involve all manner of running, conditition drills and that sort of thing. Might want to go get some runs in before the 29th.

How are you paying for health insurance if u are one of the millions recently laid off?

I know COBRA is available for many, but it is very expensive to keep up and runs only for a limited period. Questions like this have been asked before and those against governement supported health care just accused those who didn’t have health insurance as lazy losers. But with the economy crashing, the scenario has changed. If you aren’t employed anymore and have no income and little savings, what are you doing for health insurance?

There are many things that are expensive. COBRA is reasonable. If insurance is important to someone they need to make that sacrifice. I guess we should be paying for their food and homes. Those are expensive and a necessity. Where does it stop?

Bad things happen. That is life. Hard times come and tough decisions have to be made. That still does not make it anyone else’s reponsibility to care for you. And you need to talk to COBRA again. That figure, according to the guy I just spoke to , seems inflated.

How do I go about getting some sports cards graded by a grading company?

October 30, 2009 - 1:31 am Comments Off

I have a couple of sports cards that I have collected over the years that I know are limited runs or autographs of good players and rookies. I would like to get these graded by a major sports card grading company such as Beckett or Profession Sports Authenticator (PSA). If you have any information about the cost and how to go about it that would be great.

It cost about $10 a card but I think they do deals if you do more than one card

here’s the site:

I have researched HGH, and think I would benefit from it. What doctors can prescribe HGH?

October 30, 2009 - 1:31 am 1 Comment

I have researched this thoroughly, and it seems that because of my age, and physical condition, I could benefit tremendously on a HGH therapy regimen. Is it difficult to obtain? What type of doctors prescribe HGH? are the HGH concoctions advertised in fitness mags the same thing?

with all of your research. are you trying to obtain pure HGH injections or supplements that promote your body to create its own HGH. i would first start with a good supplement to promote your bodies ability to create HGH such as truwell’s hgh gold. if you do not notice a difference then look into prescriptions.

How do you determine which fitness level you are at?

October 25, 2009 - 6:04 pm 2 Comments

I read something which mentioned fitness levels such as 7.3 and 9.2. How do you work out which fitness level you are currently at?

base it on other peoples fitness levels and if they say for example i’m a 7.3 i run a mile a day lift for an hour etc. if you do that much your a 7.3, if you do more or the same exercise but longer or more intensely you’d be put higher. if you do less you get the idea.. that would be my guess.

What does health department look for when someone bakes and handles food in their home for sale?

October 25, 2009 - 6:04 pm 2 Comments

I want to start my own business with baking and making food gifts. I am going to the health department this week, but was wandering what to expect when I go. Also what I may do to my kitchen to have it pass for inspection. I do keep it clean and disinfect with bleach.

My aunt had a home-based baking business. She never needed an inspection since she didn’t advertise or need a tax ID #. However, do you have pets? That’s a sticky one. So are young kids. Some cities may require you to rent an off-site kitchen, but if this is more of a hobby, like my aunt’s, you can do it at home. An inspector may inspect your house to make sure it’s not dirty, your oven’s baking at the right temp, your fridge is at the right temp, ingredients are being stored correctly, etc.

I have a friend right now who also does wedding cakes out of her house. Since it’s a hobby and she has a different FT job, she’s never needed a permit. But if you’re considering this your primary business, scrub the H*** out of your house and be very nice to the health department. They have no sense of humor whatsoever.

Is there is a difference between the sports management and sports administration undergrad major?

October 25, 2009 - 6:04 pm 1 Comment

Some colleges offer sports administration, some offer sports management, and some schools (like Gonzaga) offer both, is there a difference and if so, what is it? THANKS!

Gonzaga’s programs are quite different. The Sport Management major is only for a Bachelor in Education. I’m not sure why they’d teach this through the education school, but I guess this would be fitting for aspiring athletic directors?
The Sport Administration is actually a major for a Master degree.
But that’s Gonzaga.

As for different schools calling majors different things, I don’t think that there is much difference. In my home state, GA Tech offers a "Management" degree with various concentrations. GA State offers a Bachelor of Business "Administration" with separate majors. The terminology of the majors and degrees are different like your "administration" vs. "management," but the course requirements are about 95% the same.

So if you need to compare two bachelor programs at two separate schools, you can probably click through their websites and find the course requirements for each and compare them.

I am 34 years old and I am starting to notice small lines developing. So I want to start with an anti aging skin care product line or routine. Can someone tell me what they are using or what you recommend and your results.

If you are really looking for the best anti aging products,
I suggest doing what this mom did, combining Resveratrol and Lift

What anti aging products do you swear by?

October 21, 2009 - 12:16 pm 7 Comments

I use Estee Lauder products. Im loving them but i want more opinions so i know that im getting the best. This is important to me. Im 30 years old and i think its a good time (if not sooner then i have) to be using an effective anti aging line.

Estee Lauder is good. If you like it then there’s no reason to change. However, anti-aging is a multi-faceted thing. It starts with good health by not smoking, very little alcohol if any, exercise, eating good food, etc. I have found that if you abuse your body within, that no anti aging formula is going to make up for it on the outside.
So, with that said, fighting free-radical damage in the skin with Vitamins A,E, and C are good starters. Vitamin A in the form of Retinoic Acid, Vitamin C serums, and creams laced with Vitamin E have confirmed that they do help slow down the aging of the skin.
If you are using any high end skin product with vitamins in it, good moisture binding ingredients, and are doing routine exfoliating, you should be getting more than adequate pampering for your skin.
