21st Century Paladin’s Dojo Info – 5/15/13

The importance of language
Knowledge is power and in today’s increasingly global space, knowing multiple languages can be really beneficial.
  1. Meet the incredible teenager who taught himself 23 languages
    Wow… seems impossible, right?
  2. The Safest (and Cheapest) Cholesterol Treatment
    There are likely natural remedies that God built into our world for every ailment. Of course, it’s quite difficult to find them.
  3. How to boost your energy without caffeine
    I’m sure it works, but where’s the fun in that? hehe
  4. The 7 Ways Successful People Approach Their Work
    Personally, the #7 point, “Pursue Pleasure” is calling my name.
  5. The computers curing cancer: Software is better than doctors at judging which treatments will work
    Number crunching is a computer’s forte. Build faster computers then all we need to do is ask the right questions.

Cayenne Peppers works by “firing up your metabolism and helping you burn extra calories and fat. Nice!
  1. Think Spice: 8 Spices with Health Benefits
    I had heard this about Cinnamon and Ginger, but psyched to learn about Cayenne Pepper. Ay caramba!
  2. Is This The HIV Cure We’ve Been Waiting For?
    So the Mississippi Baby is now HIV free. That’s beyond wonderful! While the general media jumps up and down about a cure, no mention is given to the possibility that God performed a miracle. Some scientists will never get it.
  3. The end of the Third World? New study shows world poverty could be eradicated in 20 years
    “The poor you will always have with you, but you will not always have me.”
  4. Walking IS as good for your health as running – but you’ll need to do it for longer to get the same benefits
    Makes sense. But you also have to consider less injuries, less stress on joints and more opportunity to watch Netflix movies while on my treadmill. ;^)
  5. Healthy Fast Food and Takeout
    There are plenty of ways to modify most of today’s fast food to make it healthier. The question is, will we?

Photo of Google bags
Google is becoming increasingly involved in products/services outside their starting point. I guess that’s what having massive amounts of capital will do.
  1. Google’s project X: Search giant hints at ‘unbreakable’ superphone and tablet with longer lasting battery
    Sounds to me like Google is listening.
  2. Conn. couple named ‘longest married’ in US
    Gotta applaud the effort there. Great job Mr. and Mrs. Betar!
  3. Jessica Cox was born without arms, but never let that get in the way of her dreams

  4. The blind may soon see again as science prepares to market high-tech cyborg eye

Is Paladin going to want one of these for his dojo? Yes, Papa-san.
  1. Samsung teases ‘unprecedented new TV shape’ set to be revealed next week (and it could be transparent as well)
    Slick to the nTH degree. Transparent TV!
  2. Grinnell College’s Jack Taylor scores NCAA record 138 points
    What a ball hog. ;^)
  3. Four Things That Will Cost Less in ’13
    I’ll buy the other 3 but I have a hard time believing Cable prices will ever go down. Them’s is greedy people.
  4. Could a cup of tea made from coffee be the healthiest hot drink option?
    So lemme get this straight, coffee tea is the new coffee? Where do I sign!?
  5. Did someone say Lego Hotel?
    Might be time to prep the Family Truckster.

Evertune, Your guitar is always in tune.
Can be built by a team of five in a week and with materials that we’re generally throwing away. No brainer!
  1. How to put a roof over the world’s poorest people: Ingenious idea for recycling 700m discarded wooden pallets unveiled
    Now here’s a truly green concept that I can get behind. Where can I invest?
  2. Grinnell College’s Jack Taylor scores NCAA record 138 points
    What a ball hog. ;^)
  3. The amazing pacemaker powered by your own heartbeat instead of batteries – and is smaller than a one penny piece

Photo of Devastation of Hurricane Sandy
The devastation of Hurricane Sandy is immense, yet not unprecedented. Samaritan’s Purse is a wonderful organization that gets its hands and feet dirty helping, all in the name of Jesus.
  1. Responding To Hurricane Sandy
    The Red Cross gets most of the mainstream press for disaster relief but the work of Samaritan’s Purse is outstanding, and they comes in the name of Jesus.
  2. Lemonade stand vs. cancer: Boy raises $80,000 to aid research
    Max Igoe is a hero. There are many more like him that need more press!
  3. Paragliders’ stunning views during seven-hour, 204-mile record-breaking flight across America’s Red Desert
    You gotta follow this link… the photos are INCREDIBLE!
  4. Ditch that crossword and take a walk if you want to beat dementia
    “A study has found physical exercise, rather than mind-stretching activities, offers the best protection against excessive shrinking of the brain in later life.”
  5. Stray Cat Saves a Homeless Man’s Life
    No, he didn’t go all Lassie and rescue James Bowen from a well but the emotional support to a hurting man can not be undervalued.

Man saves autistic girl who falls 3 stories from a building.
  1. NY bus driver catches girl, 7, in three-story plunge
    Watch the video! Incredible!
  2. Coffee Skin Cancer: Caffeine Consumption Linked With Lower Risk Of Basal Cell Carcinoma
    It just keeps getting better and better…
  3. Eleven Well-Paying Jobs that Don’t Require a 4-Year Degree
    The concept that college is mandatory is ridiculous. It’s a mindset that’s largely true but taken too far. Most professionals don’t even use their college specialization in their current work.
  4. I’d like a beer, 70-year-old says after icy 6-day ordeal in Alps.
    After that much time, I’d ask for two beers.

    Can’t talk now… booking a flight to Denver… Cliffhanger here we come!
  2. Boy, 9, gives away Disney World trip to family of fallen soldier
    I love warm stories like these. Does that mean I’m getting old?
  3. Paralyzed Teen Walks At High School Graduation
    Patrick Ivison is an inspiration. We need more stories like this and less about crime and death.
  4. Want to Live to 100? Sleep
    It’s not so difficult to have a happy, healthy life… follow what the Bible says. It’s in there!
  5. Donations for bullied bus monitor soar past $500,000
    Sure Karen was mistreated and that’s shameful but wow, it wasn’t nearly as bad as I imagined given the outcry.

Unemployment is down but will it continue to do so?
  1. US unemployment claims hit 4-year low of 357K
    Good news but imagine the numbers if the government would get out of the way and let our economy run.
  2. “Don’t call me a hero … It’s just what you do”
    But you are a hero. I applaud you!
  3. Sliced Bread Just Got Better
    Science is finding ways to create nutrition rich foods cheaper and faster.
  4. The Week Obama Jumped the Shark
    Obama just doesn’t get it. Our country is founded on freedom, for the most people. Not power in the hands of the elites.
  5. New Toilet System Transform Waste into Electricity
    Too many kids? No problem! Turn that poop into cash!

LIT Motors concept vehical
Is this the safest motorcycle ever? It could be that and more!
  1. Part Motorcycle, Part Car: Vehical of the Future?
    There are an awful lot of pros to LIT Motor’s concept. Since it’s the safest motorcyle ever, maybe my wife will let me finally get one? Nah…
  2. Twitter Founders Back a New Start-Up
    Plan to achieve your goals. Little good comes easily so use what you’ve been given to work forward. I just talked about this Agents: Do You Have a Real Estate Plan for Yourself?
  3. Visual thinker Sunni Brown ‘Gets It’
    Not sure why people forget that we humans are visual first. All the other senses take a back seat.
  4. Man, 91, gives millions to foster home
    More news needs to be positive news, like this. God loves a cheerful giver. Great job Al Azus!
  5. Army Major Helps Afghan Boy Get New Life
    Army Major Glenn Battschinger is a great example of the kind of great people that serve our country in the armed forces. Not to mention the foster family who’s keeping him until he returns to Afghanistan.

Find Golf Courses, Save Money and Keep Track of All Your Gold Scores

A friend of my came up with this cool idea. So what did he do? Instead of doing “nothing” he built it!

Screenshot of the DivotDog.com website
Avid golfer? You should check out DivotDog!

DivotDog helps golfers find golf courses and save money on their tee times. Golfers can also get statistical analysis of their game.

I think that’s pretty cool. How about you?

Evertune, Your guitar is always in tune.
Never need to retune your guitar again with Evertune. Yeah, that sounds like a commerical but I don’t care… how cool is that?
  1. Evertune
    Keep your guitar in tune forever. Yes please! Invention of the Year Award too.
  2. Florida Man Sets Blood Donor Record
    A simple idea combined with dedication has likely made the difference in hundreds, if not thousands of lives. John Sheppard is a hero!
  3. He saves comrades, gets medal, shrugs
    A story like this doesn’t get enough run. Instead we idolize self-centered sycophants. I wish more people were like Matt Blain. Perhaps we’ll send all of our kids through the military whether they want to or not.
  4. Man Makes Movie Magic with Trees and Trash Cans [video]
    Dude certainly has a knack with realistic sound effects.
  5. Tiny Oxygen Generators Boost Effectiveness of Anticancer Treatment
    Pure oxygen. Even a non-scientist like myself undertands why it would help. Won’t be long until we all sleep in oxygen tents. Bank on it.
