Summer Stargazing for Families! – A Fun, Free 8-Week Course
I think we counted about 52 of them—and that was just in the first hour. (At least that's the number I remember. We probably lost count after a while.) My son and I laid in reclining lawn chairs looking up at the dark night sky because it was the night of the annual Perseids meteor shower—possibly the best meteor shower of the year.

Symptoms of Magnesium Deficiency – you don’t want to miss!
When I was growing up, and even into adulthood, I never once considered the possibility that we could be deficient in a particular mineral in our body. I was always in the camp that you can get all of the necessary vitamins and minerals from food alone (which I believe is still possible through responsible farming). However, due to the modernization of farming and the depletion of minerals in the soil, getting all the vitamins and nutrients we need from food may not always be an option. It was through my wife’s personal experience with magnesium deficiency that I discovered how serious (and severe) the consequences of a ...Read More
