Searching the net today I found some wonderful quotes that are inspiring and true:

"Don't walk behind me I will not lead, don't walk in front of me I will not follow, just walk beside me and be my friend."-

If you can't be happy where you are, it's a cinch you can't be happy where you ain't.

by Charlie Tremendous Jones

Love is being able to walk arm in arm...even when you don't see eye to eye.
Love is when you take awaythe feeling, the passion, the romanceand you find out you still care for that person.

Never say goodbye when you still want to try.Never give up when you still feel you can take it.Never say you no longer love a person when you can't let go.
If you love someone, tell them...for hearts are often broken by words left unspoken.

by Jean-Francois Regnard

Stanford study proves Atkins right

In spite of the persecution Atkins faced during his life, he had correctly diagnosed the cause of the modern epidemic of obesity. For the first time, he made it clear that Americans were not getting fat because they were consuming too much fat.
They were getting fat from eating too many carbs.

And this Stanford study is not the first to prove Atkins right:

February 2003: A landmark study that compared the American Heart Association’s low-fat diet to the Atkins diet. The Atkins diet caused greater weight loss and lowered cholesterol and triglycerides much more effectively than a low fat diet of equal calories.

May 2003: The prestigious New England Journal of Medicine published a study that found the Atkins approach beat out the American Heart Association’s low fat approach for both weight loss and blood fats improvement.

Nutrition Week 2003: National meetings recently reported preliminary results of a study performed by Heritage Medical Center on patients with Metabolic Syndrome. Participants ate a low-carb diet for 18 months. Their LDL (“bad” cholesterol) reduced by an average of 82%. HDL (“good” cholesterol) scores increased by an average of 30%.

Riches in Real Estate

Tiffany Pointer purchased an investment property in Las Vegas, and less than two years later walked away with $70,000 in profit when it was sold.
At the age of 22, when many of her peers were thinking about paying back student loans or starting a first job, Tiffany Pointer of Atlanta bought her first property: a condominium in Baltimore.

Pointer, a corporate sales trainer, didn't have a hefty bank account at the time. Instead she had something that Khalfani says is even better than cash in the bank if you want to become a millionaire: good credit. With a credit score of between 760 and 850, "banks will fall all over themselves to give you that loan," Khalfani says.
