Christmas Eve, Italian Style

By Wendy Montes de Oca | 12/20/2008

I grew up in an Italian/Irish household. That meant Christmas Eve dinner was usually a mouth-watering feast of seafood delights and culinary delicacies. Antipasto (a wonderful assortment of meats, cheeses, and vegetables), shrimp fra diavolo, fried calamari, breaded flounder, baked scallops, homemade rice balls, and, of course, pasta. Lots and lots of pasta. Dessert was even better with 7-layer rainbow cookies, cannolis, and cappuccino.

What does Michael do when he’s studying a book?

By Mark Morgan Ford | 12/19/2008

When applied to reading books, the Power of One says that you should search the book for one good idea that you can put to work in your life immediately.

How to Kill a Great Company in One Easy Lesson

By Clayton Makepeace | 12/18/2008

Back in the 1980s, I agreed to help the owner of a small company grow his business. Within three years, it was the largest company in its industry.

By combining five key marketing strategies with kick-butt sales copy, we were attracting between 5,000 and 10,000 new customers every month. By 1988, we had more than 120,000 paying customers. Sales revenues and profits quadrupled.

No Need for Lozenges

By Suzanne Richardson | 12/17/2008

If you get a cold this winter, forget sugar-filled lozenges. Instead, try a licorice root brew to ease your symptoms.

The micronutrients most commonly found to be deficient were: vitamin B12, calcium, vitamin D, thiamine (vitamin B1), folic acid, iron, zinc, and magnesium. The authors of the review concluded that nutritional supplementation is absolutely necessary for every gastric-bypass patient.
