Us baby boomers have a lot to offer. I'd be interested in hearing what other BB's have to say about it. Also, who would you like to thank?
First, I have mixed feelings about aging. I'm now in the home stretch but plan to make the most of it.
Second, I advise younger folks to learn from your mistakes, think before you act and share it with others.
Third, I thank God, my Mom (now deceased), and I thank Mary Kay (and Retin-A).
Oh not yet there, but thanks for this, must be horrible to look in the mirror and you get wrinkles, but it is life
You are looking just wonderful. I have seen many beautiful women over 50. A lot of women say it is the best time in their life as they are looking after themselves much better than in their 20's.
Thank you blondpoet. It's important for us aging boomers to get an ego boost. I would like to thank Mary Kay and Retin-A for my longetivity.
I have decided to let nature takes it's course. I no longer dye my hair, it is all natural. Gray, blondish, brown..giving the appearance of a professional job. I've had several hairdressers comment on my unique hair color.
I want to age gracefully. I must say I'm feeling better about myself than I ever have, excercise cardio/strength train 3 times a week and stay in single digit clothing.
Here's to the Boomers!
I started covering my grey 5 years ago. A lot of my contemporaries have been dying their hair for years, so consider myself quite fortunate in that respect. I rely on my looks for my tv extra work and singing when I'm able and being very dark its a real shock when the grey shows. It only takes an hour every 6 weeks or so and considering some women spend a couple of hours every 2 weeks or so in the hairdresser it certainly isn't overkill.
My sexuality is very bound up with how I feel and my perceptions about my body.
I enjoy making myself look nice without being obsessive, eat the right foods, take vitamin supplements. Eat a dairy, gluten, wheat, yeast, sugar, and starch free diet. Drink alcohol very very moderately, don't smoke and I still have a 28" waist. I swim once a week, walk, practice pilates.
Who knows I may go under the knife but not yet.
Just like me then. I finally gave up dying my hair last year after having to dye it for 30 years - I started going grey at 21. Now my hair is a mix of blonde, white and grey which is funny considering I was never blond when young. In fact my hair was really dark!
Now my hair is long and natural. Like the belly, boobs and everything else about me - everything is going south!
But then I knew that would happen one day.
I've got no problems with ageing, I just wish I had the same information in my head when I was young that I do now. I might have done things so differently!
I am sixty, looking like I am forty. I teach school, sixth grade, for the last 28 years. They keep me young and I am fit so they have to keep up with me. I have been making my own soap and body butters for the last 11 years. I was so tired of buying this for my face, this for under the eyes etc; so I came up with my own recipes and now I have many followers who purchase my product in Utah. No one, not one person should feel they are getting older , but aged as an expensive bottle of wine. One should love themselves, know what they eat, drink, and put on their bodies. Being happy , meditating and never reject a compliment but say , "Thank you"
I must agree...and thanks for reactivating the thread!
I would like to know your recipes for great looking skin. I am 56 and still get compliments of not looking my age. I problem I do have is some bags under my eyes.
I do have skin products I use and have been using this brand since about late 2006. But have lately started making my own deodorant and would like to make my own skin products too. I do not want harmful chemicals getting into my bloodstream. What is the best solution for the skin, especially the face? And also, are commercial sunscreens safe for use?
A couple of ideas; sometimes low levels of iron will show up as dark circles under the eyes.
Fresh pineapple has an enzyme which is a great exfoliant. Rub a piece on the skin. It will probably tingle slightly but is harmless. Leave it on the skin for just 30 seconds or so and rinse off with warm water. You will start to see your complexion even out after awhile if you do this once a week. It's also wonderful for acne sufferers though it will sting a bit more at first.
It's not so bad alexandria...everyone will get there sooner or later. Thank you for commenting to help get this thread started.
I'm 51, and I 'm enjoying it! It's definitely better than the alternative! lol
We are both 51 and proud of it! Thanks for contributing.
Tell ya ladies, at 55 I feel better now than I did at 25. Haven't slowed a step. Having 5 boys has kept me younger than I could have ever hoped.
I wish I felt better at 59. Things have gone downhill healthwise since I turned 50. Facial neuralgia through mismanaged wisdom tooth extraction. Osteoporosis diagnosis, bad migraines since mid 30's which have got worse and bad back problems which are chronic . Await
I have been very active bringing up 2 children on my own, working full time, decorating, gardening and at the time of life when I have my freedom with less responsibilites I have been ambushed by these problems.
Fortunately I have been lucky with looks being taken for someone 10 years younger but my social, work life and relationships are affected.
i am 51 and many think i am alot younger but my body feels like 80. i used to have sever migraines but with the help of the Cleveland Clinic and their headache clinic I have been migraine free for a few yrs now if only the same thing would happen for my fibromyalgia. i am determined to only get better from here on but it's hard when i cant get out of bed til after noon. it's great to here everyone tell their ways of making this a positive time in their life. thank u for this forum.

Oops - forgot my advice:
The longer you carry a grudge, the heavier it gets.
aging is ok, when you're feeling healthy! Wrinkles and gray hair are ok too - its just that this is such an ageist society = when I let my hair go gray people started calling me Maa'm ! I just laugh! I think, honestly, that we live a little too long, now - our system hasn't caught up with this and as a result the strain on our economy and services is pretty bad - but we're not supposed to talk about it!
I don't mean that people should just die, I mean that we need to find some way to keep people active and give up on this idea of retiring - it's a sham and a shame that people think they'll be happy retired. There must be some way we can cut back on paid work hours and do volunteer hours in the community or within our families. Most people really hate being retired!
For me the idea of sitting in some retirement community and using up my resources on golf and lunches with the girls makes me want to gag! We have some strange ideas about what people should be like as they age - the reality is, we need to stay active and involved!
I fear getting old. i'm half of 50 now and i don't want to get that old.
Seems weird to me too..my kids are older than you! I still think a bit like I did at 25, just with a bit more knowledge.
Be careful, you may get your wish.
Donotfear, don't get too comfortable! At 50, I felt smug - my figure was still holding up, I had very few wrinkles, no grey hairs and I felt fit. Getting old wasn't so bad, I thought!
I'm now into the second half of my fifties and not nearly so impressed. In the last few years, I've suddenly gained a belly, wrinkles appeared seemingly overnight and my whole face is heading south. I'm developing all sorts of niggling aches and pains.
Bottom line is, once menopause hits, aging happens very fast!
Having said all that, I appreciate my life and, as Habee says, it's better than the alternative.
Believe you me friend you must get old as fare as you are still alive.
"OLD" keeps changing young fellow.
We used to say"Never trust Anyone over thirty".
Now it's Ninety lol.
I wrote a hub about being an aging hippy - which is different than being an aging missionary, I would guess. The thing is it is such a shock when you have to give up your ideas about what it is to get older! And when all my life plans and philosophy were mainly about staying young, the inevitability of age is a rude shock. I was not prepared to change my mind about whether I should trust anyone over 30 and the 30 passed so fast and here I am 61 and still a rebel and it just is not too pretty! haha - sense of humor may get a bit strained as it has been overworked lately trying to keep myself in survival mode!
I'm a bit under half of 50 so I can't say much, but my husband keeps filling me in a bit. He turned 50 a few months ago and, despite being in better shape than most men half his age, still laments not being able to do all of the things he did when he was younger. Granted, he played some violent, hard-hitting sports (football, hockey, and boxing) which is why he is now on the verge of admitting he may need new knees. His doctor told him he'd be in a wheelchair by 40 if he didn't get his knees replaced, but that doc WAAAAY underestimated his level of stubbornness
When I turned 50, it just happened that I was a substitute teacher in a class of blind children between 8 and 12 years old. They taught me something about age.
It's not like we can really do much about it other than stay healthy as possible - all I can say is: Do not go quietly into that night!
I try to go quietly at night-- otherwise I wake up the dog.
It's hard to believe (other than when I look in the mirror) that I am soon going to be 61. Maybe I get to be a know it all. because I've had a lot of experiences, etc. but then I learn so much from the younger hubbers every day here that I am humbled every day by trying to keep up with them. ;D
I guess I don't belong posting in this forum because I've not reached that age(41), as of yet.
Just a thought.
I knew I was getting "old" when people started calling me "ma'am". I don't like it, but there could be worse things they might call me. I love painting and that is the thing I live for right now.
It has been quite an adjustment for me having my children all leave the nest. I have taken up gardening and writing to fill in the gap. Letting go of past mistakes and forgiving are still challenges, but I will keep trying.
It is important to keep a positive attitude. If you have a negative way of thinking, try to turn it around before you become a cranky old biddie. Keep active - I still ride my bike every day. My Dad is 83 and still rides his bike too.
And give yourself a break sometimes - take a nap. My grandma said that the reason she lived to be in her 90s was that she took a short nap every afternoon.
Lol...someone called me ma'am once when I was 14...obviously at that point I was still used to "miss" or "young lady" so it kind of threw me. Now that's how my husband refers to me all the time (there is only one answer if I ask him to do something ) so I'm getting a little more used to it.
Keep active
keep learning
keep having sex
try not to fight over stupid stuff.
find a sport to participate in
get your yearly fisical
have family over for bbq's
play with the grand kids
teach your kids something new
take a home course in something you like
you will be surprised how many companies will hire you if you show them you are engaged in a class,even over the net as I did.
Good Luck and Happy Camping
I will be 56 in a couple of weeks, and life is better than before.
My daughters are adults and not dependent on me. It is lovely to have them as friends.
I no longer feel the need to seek people's approval for anything I say or do.
Just before I turned 50, I was able to stop being a wage slave and set up as a freelance. Now I no longer have bad managers breathing down my neck and forcing me into their petty little rules. I can do my work how and when I like, and take as many holidays and long weekends as I choose because no one else has a say in the matter. It's up to me whether to let this reflect in lower income or to spend some periods working day and night to make up the balance. I do one or the other depending on how I feel.
I took up running at the age of 50 and three years later participated in 2 half-marathons four weeks apart. That all got a bit shot to pieces for various in the last two years, but I intend to take it up again when the weather improves.
I'm free of a toxic relationship and with the man I love.
I can be as weird as I like. The sweetest sound to my ears is one of my daughters saying "Motherrrrrrrrr, you can't do that!" Oh yes I can!
There is that wonderful poem by Jenny Jones, which I have taken as my anthem. It starts:
"When I am an old woman,
I shall wear purple - -
With a red hat which doesn't go,
and doesn't suit me.
And I shall spend my pension
on brandy and summer gloves and satin sandals..."
All in all, I am enjoying growing old disgracefully even though it does involve the odd twinge here and there and wrinkle or two.
50 can be better than 40-- 60 can be better than 50. It all depends. What are doing now? What do you hope to do? and.. what will you do? You make choices every day.
Umm, just turned 50 a couple of weeks back. Feels good. No particular advice
54- guys play stupid and get in the way alot they'll run you off and then you can golf or fish in peace.
My advice would be to approach obstacles with a "how can I overcome it" approach instead of a "how is it stopping me" approach.
When we were kids a hurdle meant an attempt at jumping. And while jumping is getting more and more laughable I still stick by the optimistic state-of-mind that encourages me to think forward and not feel halted by a trial.
Hunter S Thompson said:
"Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!'"
Growing old disgracefully is the Way Forward.
First, I'd like to thank the Academy for this great honor. (Chokes slightly...)
With a more serious tone, being 54 is a trip. Life really began for me at 50 when I had to face all the losses and figure out if there was anything that I wanted to live for.
Turns out, I do.
Though it's a cliché, life is what we make of it. We sabotage ourselves more often than others do. Living in the present is the only way to live because the past no longer exists and future hasn't happened. And the only way to make the future wonderful is by what we decide to do right now.
And I like paying it forward. You don't have to have much in life to be a mentor or a help to someone who needs a little help.
You are quite right here Daniel! Very inspiring contribution. I will definetly take it and run with it.
Daniel you are still looking pretty hot to be. I reckon you could give Daniel Day Lewis a run for his money any-day. In fact everyone I have seen on this thread over 50 are looking mighty fine, I hope to look that good when I get there.
You do go on...
Please, feel free to continue at a pace you enjoy....
I will happily be your manager at a rate of 25%.
Could you read the following script please LMAO.
In my twenties, I smirkily gave a card to a friend who was turning 50. The card had a punchline that went something like, "Don't worry, people have been known to live for weeks after turning 50". Now that it's almost here (7 months!), I hope the card was right... :0
Someone else already said it better, but it's true. I'm always surprised at my reflection in the mirror. I still feel like 20-year-old-me on the inside.
My (clichéd) advice? Live well, love much, and laugh often.
Me too Lynda. I still feel very young inside. In fact, I catch myself using the old 70's hippie slang quite a bit! I just never quite let it go. I climb over gates, go through fences, chase lost cows, ride horseback and fish with a cane pole. What more can you do to feel young at heart!?
LOL, I said the same in my Hub on non-surgical facelifts. I've been known to catch sight of myself in the mirror and think "who's that old bat?"
I say the same thing to myself. I try to avoid the mirror as much as possible!
I feel like I don't have to take any shit from anybody anymore. I feel like I am not intimidated by anyone anymore. I don't give away my emotional pie so quickly. I am more sure of who I am and what my values are.
Could I have a small slice of your emotional pie? I've always been a bit too reserved.
Over fifty and I feel fine. I drink more water now, eat better foods, nothing fried anymore and I walk a lot.
I believe we all can slow the aging process if we do the right things and it also helps if we get the right genes passed down from our parents.
Aging well has a great deal to do with how well our parents aged.
I believe that doing the things that bring us joy, engaging in those passions often and surrounding ourselves with encouraging, positive people, will help in assisting to keep us young.
Be good to yourself you only get one shot at this...........
Best Wandah
Getting old is better than the alternative, but I don't like it anyway.
I'm halfway to 50, but I feel much older One thing my great grandmother always used to say, especially when people tried to tell her she was too fragile for activities meant for younger people, was, "You're only as old as you feel. The more fun you have, the younger you feel so get out of my way!" My great grandmother was in her 80s and had more energy than I have now. She enjoyed jumping rope with the neighbor kids and watching cartoons on Saturday mornings, was very wise, very fun, and a great comfort to everyone. I can only hope I'll have her attitude about life as I age further.
Unfortunately I have no advice to give seeing as I'm not even close to halfway to 50. I can't imagine what its like to get that old and watch your body slowly turn against you by giving you gray hair and wrinkles. Hopefully science will come up with something by then so I can be young forever!
LegendaryHero, good Lord! What do you think 50 is?!! (It's OK. I thought the same way when I was your age.) Bodies don't have to start "turning against you" at 50. I do the same things now that I did when I was 20 and have more energy. 50% of people don't even start to go gray until 50, and even then it can take a long time before isolated gray hairs need any coloring. I'm not thrilled that I got some fine lines under my eyes about three weeks after I passed my 50th birthday; but if I don't put my reading glasses I can't see them - so I still look 30 to me. I know other people can see them close up - but how often do I get all that close-up to all that many other people who don't have worse lines than I do anyway? Besides, in the "scheme of all possible flaws anyone can have with his/her appearance", I figure a few lines underneath my eyes are kind of the least of my own or anyone else's problems.
I think the worst things for me about being past my 50th birthday is having people in their 60's and 70's still treat me like I'm a kid or having people in their 20's have no idea how "the same as ever, and in a lot of ways better" being 50 (and a little more) can be. (I do kind of like it, though, when 80-year-olds treat me like their kids' age - but only people over 80. I don't mind it when teens and younger think I'm horribly old, because young kids think anyone two years older than they are is old.
To be honest, I wouldn't mind going back to my forties, before the fine lines showed up. Even so, I wouldn't trade where I am, and what I am, now with where and what a lot of people in their 20's are now (or with where and what I was when I was in my 20s) for anything.
If HubPages is still up and running when I've passed my 60th birthday (eh hem... many years from now), maybe I'll have more to complain about. For now, the biggest age-related complaint I have is having to say a number that sounds so old.
I am over 50.
For skin lots of water and sunscreen
For weight take lots of hot baths and walk, do yoga, forget about the published charts. How you feel is more important.
For spirit meditate/pray regularly
For heart, love freely and unconditionally.
It's interesting that most of the respondents on here are women. It would appear, then, that women are more affected by aging than men. Is it true that women are more vain than men? I would tell my ex-wife that coloring her hair was unnecessary. Yet, prior to her bi-weekly visits to the colorist, she would violently yank out any gray hairs. She also had an array of creams and lotions that took up so much space I was forced to move my shaving kit into the second bath. Life is what it is. We are born, we live, we die. The rest is prideful nonsense.
I hate it - I want to get up and down off the floor without it being a struggle!
Growing older is marvelous!
Ok, so your body can't do what it used to do - but your mind can do what it never could do before. There is a calmness and clarity that comes with having some experience under your belt. And too, growing old gracefully is an art form.
Here's to growing old gracefully
I'm also 51.
My advice is to enjoy every breath ya take and give God the glory.
I'm not quite there but almost. Many people think I'm younger to which I reply, "It's because I'm immature." Age is a state of mind. The body does something else and to that I say, just keep on moving.
Double nickel SOON. Got a cataract in right eye. Knees are shot. Gonna be a platinum blond soon, what a long strange trip it's been. Goin' to the end o' the line. We all make it there, but, in spite of everything sliding down the hill, it's great to be here. Wouldn't mind comin' back, just to see what will happen after we're gone.
Hi there, as a woman in her fifties I have to say I feel more confident in myself now than I did twenty years ago. I eat a healthy vegetarian diet and excercise a fair bit. A recent diet has seen me lose quite a few pounds and I feel much better for that.
Donotfear, YOUR amazing beautiful and to think you would have never had to tell us your in your fifties as who would have guessed.
I hope to be as beautiful as you inside and out when I'm nearing fifty.
Thanks for the words of wisdom to all you folks in your fifties.
I always heard poop before you leave the house was good advice when I hit 50 sorry that's all I know about turning 50
At 70, I can only give advice that i hope you will take.
Don't smoke! I did.
Don't drink to excess!
Stay away from drugs!
Eat healthy! I didn't.
Stay active and exercise.
I didn't follow all of these suggestions, and paid the price.
I have had 4 heart attacks, 5 stents, 3 arterial surgeries on my right leg, 1 faciotomy surgery on my right leg, 4 veins taken out of my left leg, for a triple bypass, surgery for 3 aneurisms in my stomach, a surgery to repair a graft in my right groin, and 2.2 centimeters burnt off of my left kidney.
I am currently on blood thinner and other meds. I could have avoided this if I had listened to sound advice when younger.
I currently watch my diet, walk at least 1 mile every morning, and spend as much time with my children and grandchildren as possible.
The only other advice I can suggest, is to not try to keep up with the Joneses. Realize that working toward a mutual goal with your life partner is most important. Also realize that one of the biggest pressures you will have in life, is financial. Live within your means.
Worrying about gray hair or wrinkles is futile. You don't have to impress anyone if you are happy with the person you are inside.
Keep family ties open and get together as often as possible.
Forgive and ask for forgiveness when needed.
Hope you all have a long and happy life.
Hi, what a wealth of great advice...love it! thank you!
I'm a month and a bit away from becoming a sexagenarian (oh mama!)
The 50s have been a blurr... even though I retired along with my husband before 55 and moved into a gentle Island lifestyle, it seems like there aren't enough hours in the day to try new things and learn things I've never even heard about before. I blame the Internet lol. I think the 50s are a serious time of spiritual growth and realizing the importance of developing lasting, healthy relationships (as someone said, drop the grudges). Look for excellent mentors to guide you into the person of great age that you want to become. (some of your mentors might be found in autobiographies, that's okay) I'm in a 40-year marriage and finding that it is probably the high point of our life together... we're more creative, we're more forgiving, and we have developed pretty close to the same whacky sense of humour. Living with an attitude of gratitude (yeah, maybe we are the CLICHE generation after all? lol)is important-- love the one you're with (that would be YOU). Enjoy all the perks (grandparenting, sleeping in, letting your little dog sleep in your bed after years of thinking that was sooo dirty). Keep your brain active. Get out into nature. Cultivate community. Don't trust Big Pharma. Take charge of your own health. Etc. See-- it's limitless!! All the best to everyone!
I'm 62 and don't feel much different than I ever did. I have some gray streaks, but I'm healthy and strong. The main thing I worry about is my eyes - I have severe astigmatism and fear going blind someday.
My wife and I were married in 1967. We eat healthy food and exercise regularly. She is not doing as well as I am - she has bad joint issues and constant pain.
We have had a wonderful life. No complaints. I wish she were free of the pain, but as she says, it could be worse.
PC take a look at Turmeric, it's good for pain relief and is a powerful anti-inflammatory (naturally) but she needs to take it for abut two weeks before it will kick in.
Also cider apple vinegar is good for joint pains, which are normally caused by acidity in the body, there are plenty of hubs on both these solutions.
Now back to the thread.
I'm 59, going on 45 in most areas of life, I still have not grown up and constantly see old men younger than me!
I am just beginning to enjoy being older, and look forward to matching my parents, who made just short of 90!
Never stop adjusting to change, once you get fixed in your life, you start to die.
That's me (¡cos my avatar is just that!)
I'm 34 and i have learned quite Alot from friends over 50 ...
more so than my parents in many ways
I love older people!
i am 50- i hope to grow up soon.....
still feel about 15 though with a few aches and pains

It started earlier than this, but I first marveled over state Sen. Rick Jones' unique ability to steal headlines in late 2005 when he vowed to "save Christmas."
Jones says today he can't remember doing this, but in the weeks leading up to Christmas '05, the then-first year state representative cut a press release calling on state officials to rename the Capitol's "Holiday Tree" the "Christmas Tree."
"Rep. Rick Jones Saves Christmas" screamed the outlandish headline to the amusement of my media cohorts.
Amazingly, a year later, the Senate passed a resolution doing just that.
I'm not saying Jones is magical. He just gets in the media. Newspapers, radio, TV, the Internet, it doesn't matter.
The attention makes Jones a media whore in the eyes of the Democrats he insistently bangs on and the envy of fellow Republicans who a) don't make the effort to get into the press or b) aren't as good at it.
Over the holidays, the rest of the 147 state lawmakers' minds were anywhere but on state politics. Jones had the stage to himself, and he took full advantage, making sure someone's foot was firmly planted in Gov. Jennifer Granholm's rear end on her way out the door.
The Grand Ledge man hit her for not giving Michigan State University some cleanup money for asbestos in the former Michigan State Police headquarters building on Harrison Road. The governor's Liquor Control Commission waffled on the Sunday morning alcohol sales for a couple of days. Jones was on them for that.
He found a state employee who told him Granholm's Department of Energy, Labor and Economic Growth let $500,000 in military veterans' job training money fly out the window because the department couldn't spend it in time.
State employees alerted Jones that the Granholm administration was in the process of giving 28 state employees a combined $100,000 in raises. He blew the whistle on that.
Then Granholm signed a bill that initially appeared to have eliminated the sentencing guidelines for possession of K2 (synthetic marijuana) and Ecstasy.
"GOV GRANHOLM REPEALS PENALTIES ON DANGEROUS DRUGS," blasted Jones' release.
Initially, Granholm's office tried to ignore Jones. They'd gone to war with the bombastic state lawmaker when Jones made his very public appeal to eliminate the Office of the First Gentleman, and they didn't want to relive the experience.
After a while, they couldn't help themselves.
Last month, the governor's office was going to have Jones make a ceremonial tribute to a constituent in Jones' district. The day before the event, Jones was told the governor was having someone else do it.
Days later the press office shot back its own volley.
"Rep. Jones would better serve his constituents by doing his job — by ending lifetime health care benefits for people like himself," said Liz Boyd, Granholm's press secretary. "Instead, he seems to be spending his time issuing daily press releases about the governor."
The next day, what did Jones do? He called for the Legislature to return to session to repeal lifetime health care benefits for people like himself.
If there's a controversial issue to be found, Jones is on it like flies at a picnic. If there's not one handy, he finds one. People readily give him tips.
Being the former Eaton County sheriff, Jones knows folks within the Michigan State Police and law enforcement. Being a Republican representing a district all of two miles from the Capitol, Jones receives tips from government employees eager to report perceived shenanigans.
Interestingly, Jones isn't a conservative in the traditional sense. He trumpeted from the highest mountain the finding of 17 "babies" in the dumpster of a Delta Township abortion clinic. He wanted Tazers legalized so badly, he willingly got himself Tazered during a House committee meeting.
In the political newsletter MIRS' annual ranking of most conservative lawmakers, Jones was tied for the third most moderate among Republicans, behind former Rep. Dick Ball of Laingsburg.
Jones is the Capitol's biggest populist. He's the common-sense police. Like when he worked with Rep. Mark Meadows, D-East Lansing, to pass legislation that allow critically ill state prisoners to be released so their hospital bills are footed by Medicaid as opposed to the Department of Corrections' budget.
This year, Jones is in the Senate. It will be different. There, the Republican majority runs as a pack and likes it that way. Running high-profile solo projects is frowned upon.
I told Jones jokingly several weeks ago that I'd need to hire a beat reporter at MIRS just to cover all of the activity he drums up.
I may not need one if the Senate rubs off on Jones. I may need 25 more if Jones rubs off on the Senate.

Chanticleer Promotional Signage
The Duke Chanticleer needed promotional signage to increase interest, public engagement, and visibility on campus. The graphics were designed to promote both the yearbook as a product and as a creative extracurricular club. Students are constantly surrounded by opportunities and advertisements, so these were created with an intentionally lighthearted, casual, and friendly vibe to create a feeling of familiarity and mild nostalgia, as well as to ensure that students did not feel alienated from either the graphics or the group. The vertically oriented images were designed for display on digital signage across campus, while the square graphics were intended for use on social media, such as Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook. All photos are property of either the Duke Chanticleer or Meghan Fox Photography.

This is a simple plugin that you may need.
It allows you to display information about the default category via the [lh_display_default_category] shortcode.
By default this shortcode will output the name name of the default category but if you wish to output any of the wordpress category object keys you can output them instead by specifiying the key e.g. [lh_display_default_category key="category_count"]
This plugin actually supports other taxonomies (that have default term support). So you can also us it like so: [lh_display_default_category taxonomy="my-custom-taxonomy"]
In time I will add gutenberg support for this plugin

What is something does not work?
LH Logged In Post Status, and all https://lhero.org plugins are made to WordPress standards. Therefore they should work with all well coded plugins and themes. However not all plugins and themes are well coded (and this includes many popular ones).
If something does not work properly, firstly deactivate ALL other plugins and switch to one of the themes that come with core, e.g. twentyfifteen, twentysixteen etc.
If the problem persists pleasse leave a post in the support forum: https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/lh-display-default-category/. I look there regularly and resolve most queries.

So, you want to bring traffic to your website?
If your answer is yes, then SEMrush saves the hassle for many digital marketers. Keywords, analytics, competitor research, PPC optimization, website ranking, and more. Everything related to marketing can be found here.
A whole suite of tools awaits you to achieve the best results for your brand. Getting the ideal website traffic is just one click away.
This article will talk about SEMrush, a tool that will help you in SEO digital marketing.
Before you go on, you may want to watch this video by Craig Mullins on YouTube that gives a quick overview. Afterward, you will want to read the rest of the article for a more comprehensive review.
Organic Research Ahrefs Ivs Semrush
Without research, marketing wouldn't be as successful as it is today.
SEMrush uses a research-based approach to find the best keywords. It calculates the financial value of each word. These search terms could be the reason you generate sales.
This tool allows you to visualize the landing pages of competitor websites for each keyword. These pages can be used as a basis for optimizing your page.
Notably, SEMrush can detect new competitors on the Search Engine Results Page (SERP). The rankings change at any time, so you know where to work on.
In getting insights into your competitors, it is found at the "Competitors" tab. There you'll see a visual map of where your website ranks among the others. When there are more keywords, they appear on the right side. Sites with organic traffic will appear higher on the map's scale.
Plans and Pricing
But before we can continue on what the program can do, this section will be covered first. Finding out the cost saves a lot of time to decide.
SEMrush starts at $99.95 per year if you pay annually. If you can't avail of a reasonable price, the program has three plan subscriptions to select from. Each plan is appropriate for small- to medium-sized businesses (SMBs).
Starting at $119.95 per Month
The Pro plan offers 10,000 results per report through the program's own domain. You also get access to keyword analytics tools and up to 3,000 reports or searches per day.
It gathers 5 projects, 500 keywords to track, a 100,000 crawled page limit, and up to 50 social media profiles with 5 scheduled reports in PDF format.
Starting at $229.95 per Month
At this plan, you get 30,000 results per report and 5,000 reports/searches per day. The Guru plan increases their number of projects to 50 while also having 20 PDF reports.
You'd get personalized branding with 1,500 keywords to track, 300,000 crawled pages and 100 social media profiles. There's even historical data access to know how the keyword performed through time.
Starts at $449.95 per month.
This Business plan offers 40 projects, white-label PDF reports, multi-user management, and exclusive access to API. These are the most powerful tools available for higher-ups.
Alongside its many analytics, you get to track 5,000 keywords.
All plans are intended to cater to marketers of any size. Depending on where you work, they have it all covered. SEMrush can also provide custom solutions on request.
Now that we got that out of the way, the tool has more in store.

SEO Writing Assistant
Known as SEO Ideas, this tool gives instant SEO advice per page on your website. This tool is a game changer!
This can be viewed as an additional feature for marketers with a background. But to those who are new, you should make good use of its potential capabilities.
By clicking on the Ideas button, you will be led to a page where you get suggested keywords. There are even recommendations to use backlinks or ways to make page improvements from specialized websites.
Keyword Analytics and User Experience
Keywords are the foundation of any website. SEMrush's keyword search tool finds keywords that are similar to phrases and terms in order to improve search rankings.
These terms will help you get your article to page 1 on the SERP. This will increase traffic and generate more sales. There's even the option to use long-tail keywords. It is ideal for optimizing every content as a start.
The User Experience is straightforward. While it can be overwhelming at first with so much information at once, it has a manageable learning curve.
One possible issue new users may face is data not loading fast.
SEMrush brings so many functions, and it is to be expected to slow down at times. The main menu is located on the right, while the submenus are at the top. They do have an alternative to make their data visuals to speed up the loading buffer.
SEMrush offers a mobile app for users who are on the move. It can be another way to know how your website is doing even without having a desktop.
Backlink Analysis
SEMrush also supports backlinks. The tool monitors which web pages and domains are linking to your site.
It even analyzes the value of each backline made. It evaluates the quality of your website based on the domains and pages that point to it. And it also shares information about the links. From the backlink, SEMrush can pinpoint where the link's geolocation is from. Meaning if you run a personal blog, for example, you get to know where the link clicks are coming from.
Performance Analysis
Found through the Post Tracking tool, SEMrush tracks the performance of each post. You can track up to 50 posts, and you also have the choice to see how your competitor is doing.
> > Click Here to Try SEMrush for Free < <
PPC Data
SEMrush also supports pay-per-click (or PPC for short). PPC is an additional level of marketing that goes beyond SEO.
SEMrush offers planning tools to help you determine which data is more valuable than others. You can be one step ahead by working on your PPC. A tab is present to know where your competitors are aiming and even their current SERP ranking.
Let's suppose you have an ad copy draft but it has not been published. This could be a great opportunity to optimize your ad copy for landing pages in order to get maximum site traffic.
Site Audit
Site Audits are the indications if your website is not appearing in any search engines. These could include:
- Duplicate content
- Website loads slow
- Crawl errors
- SSL problems
- Keyword overuse
- Missing headers/Images
- Broken links
SEMrush has a list of things you can do. Because the program has it integrated into the system, you don't need to hire any third-party help.
They also offer an On-Page Search Engine Optimization Checker. It improves SEO results by proposing possible adjustments.
Notably, SEMrush also teaches you new information. SEMrush will help you solve any issues identified by the Site Audit or On-Page SEOChecker.
> > Click Here to Try SEMrush for Free < <
Social Media Tracker
Many people believe that SEO does not rely on social media. That's what they want you to consider.
SEMrush has a suite of tools to track the performance of your website's rankings on any major social media platform. It tracks follower counts, engagements, and trending topics. They even highlight which platform performs the best.
This tool allows you to compare your competitors side-by-side. This tool can be used to compare the performance of your competitors over any time period.
Customer Support
For a program like SEMrush, the number of features can be daunting. Luckily, their customer support is available through email, chat, and phone.
A live help chat box is found at the corner of every page, along with the contact details on the website's footer. This removes the need to go through a separate help center page, but no help would be given.
SEMrush also organizes webinars regularly to impart information about new features and ways to enhance your SEO and PPC strategies.
All in all, active communication to their clients keeps the engagements going.
If your marketing plan is in dire need of major overhaul, SEMrush is a good choice. Although the cost is prohibitive for some, the many features make it worth the investment for any campaign. Ahrefs Ivs Semrush
It would be a good question to ask: Is it worth the cost? That depends on you.
SEMrush offers many plans for any kind of marketer as it finds a way to audit your website. The UI may be clunky at first, but the versatility it gives for online transparency is present. Ahrefs Ivs Semrush
Need the data? It's there. Find the best keywords? The program will show you the most relevant keywords.
It all comes down to how you want to boost traffic.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) Ahrefs Ivs Semrush

ELKMONT, Alabama — A cousin of an Alabama youth charged with killing five relatives says the slayings occurred days after the teen learned that the woman he considered his mother wasn't a biological parent.
Daisy McCarty tells WAFF-TV she believes that revelation led to the slayings, which happened Monday in the north Alabama town of Elkmont.
Authorities say the youth told authorities he fatally shot his father, stepmother and three siblings who were 6 or younger.
McCarty tells the station the youth learned about his stepmother last week. She says he also had been acting out in recent months, by burning live animals and breaking into his school.
Authorities haven't released the suspect's name because of his age, and The Associated Press isn't using the victims' names to avoid identifying him.


text: What a great space, mission, community, and awesome local panel speaking last evening at Portland's WeWork Labs official opening. The WeWork Labs will work with other local startup accelerators, incubators, mentors and communities to share resources in which to successfully help local startups succeed. The PIE Shop incubator with 21 startups located in the Autodesk Portland office building celebrate this new additional local resource for startups and looking forward to working with them. I wish someone had recorded the panel discussion of local startup community leaders and a VC as there was so much rich advice in that short panel discussion.

Interruptions is a very useful feature on Android. It allows you to restrict notifications such as calls, messages and reminders. You can specify which events will bother you and which ones will be muted.
The most useful thing is to learn how to set up priority interruptions only in silent mode. In other words allow vibration notifications from your most important (or priority) contacts only.
This works for Android 7 Nougat, Android 6 Marshmallow as well as for CyanogenMod 12 and 13.
Configure Which Interruptions are the Priority Ones
- Pull down the Status Bar.
- Tap and hold down Do Not Disturb:
- Tap on Priority only allows.
- Define which interruptions will have priority. In most cases will be useful to select calls and messages from starred contacts only:
- If you have selected Starred contacts only just add important contacts to the Starred group in Google Contacts:
If you have selected Contacts only just add the person to your contact list and since that time he or she will be able to call you or send a message in Priority mode.
How to allow only priority interruptions in Android 7 Nougat
- Pull down the Status Bar.
- Tap on Do Not Disturb tile:
- Select Priority only.
- Select the duration (Until you turn this off, for a definite period of time, until the next alarm).
- Tap Done:
How to quickly allow Priority Interruptions Only in silent mode
Here is how to allow calls and messages from the favorite contacts in silent mode.
First go to Settings ⇒ Buttons (in the Device section) ⇒ Power Menu (in Power Button section). Here enable Sound Panel:
Now you can turn on the priority interruptions in silent mode by performing the following steps:
Now you will receive vibration from priority contacts' calls or SMS. Others will be muted.
How to turn off Do Not Disturb Mode and allow all interruptions with sound
- Press the Volume Up key.
- Adjust the ringtone volume. This will turn off the silent mode.
- Tap on End Now to allow ringtones and notifications from all callers regardless of being Starred or even their presence in the Contacts.

You're welcome! Have a pretty week :)Delete
me likey!!!! they re all interesting readReplyDelete
I shower morning and night except when I'm in hostel, too lazy and the weather is cool. LolReplyDelete
The dentist memory loss one looks interesting, clickinggg.
My Lil sister talks in her sleep all the time.
For me because I go from house to car to gym to office to car to house, I hardly sweat, so I don't see the need to shower at night. Although I must admit that sometimes it's relaxing.Delete
I talk in my sleep a lot and it disturbed me at some point that I had to do research on the reason I did that. I read that you should not take caffeine in order to avoid it and I stopped taking caffeine for a while and it improved, but then, it started again and then, I realized that mine happens mostly when I sleepover at my friends place.ReplyDelete
I nominated you for the versatile blogger award. Do check on it!Replies
Hmm. Why at sleepovers? Maybe because it's not your normal environment?Delete
Yay, lemme see.

Merci Mademoiselle!!!ReplyDelete
I love water plus its highly recommended for my weight loss regime. So during a typical night, I already go to pee about 3 times. On days when I've had to shower at night, i pee up to 5 hours (which is about once every hour) which also means i barely sleep!!! Phew!ReplyDeleteReplies
Oh no. I can't. It takes me a while to fall asleep. I can't imagine waking up that many times to peeDelete

The beaches of Koufonisi are enchanting. They have aquamarine waters inviting you into their cool embrace.
Folk Museum
The museum was created in 2011 at the initiative of the then Head of the new municipality of Koufonisia, Antonis Koveos. It opened officially on June 30, 2011. The council, local inhabitants and many friends contributed enormously to the work required.
The exhibits have been provided by the inhabitants – they tell their story and memories. You will find it next to the church of St George, by the old water fountain. Domestic utensils, big and small, the tools of the farmer's labour, the fisherman's, the ship's carpenter's, old picture frames, all reminding us of times gone by. Open daily.
The main occupation of the islanders used to be the production of basic commodities for their families. One of these was wheat. For grinding this into flour there were two windmills, which to this day stand proudly and adorn Koufonisi.
The first towers above the harbour, and appears to welcome visitors. Open Windmill at Loutro Photo Gallery Open Windmill at Loutro Photo Gallery The second windmill is located near the shipyard, in the Loutro area. It was built around 1830. It has been designated a Modern Monument of the Preindustrial Era
Karnayo (Dockyard)
This is where repair and maintenance of sea vessels is done. The Koufonisia own the largest fishing fleet in Greece in proportion to their population. There used to be two dockyards on the island, but only one of them remains in operation as the other one closed after its owner retired.
The one still in operation is located in the Loutro area. It is the only one in Mikres Cyclades. The work there remains almost exactly the same as it was in the past.
A natural swimming pool awaits you in the eastern part of the island.
Walking along the cliff path towards the east, past Platia Pounda beach and before you get to Pori beach, about halfway, you will find a large rock pool, big enough for several people to swim in.
It is perfect for diving, too. It might be one of the amusements that Neptune once provided for the entertainment of the Nereides, his sea wives.
To Mati Tou Diavolou cave
Just before you get to Pori beach on the cliff path, at the cape at the end of the cove, there is a small cave called Devil's Eye (To Mati Tou Diavolou) It is difficult to find as its entrance is not visible from the path, so below we are providing some directions we hope will help. If you are standing on Pori beach, facing the sea, the cave is on the right hand end of the cove. On the cliff path from Platia Pounda to Pori, past Pisina, you walk about 250m, until Pori beach comes into sight.
There you stop and look to the right towards the sea to locate an opening between the rocks. You walk through turn right after about 20 steps and there is the entrance to the cave. It is low, you must stoop to enter. On the right hand side of the entrance there is a hole through which the sea comes up and floods the cave floor to be sucked back down again. That is Devil's Eye. The power of the sea, the deep sigh of the ever rising and falling water, the lovely view from the cave make for a riveting sight.
Tripiti or Gala
An enormous hole in the ground containing a beach. Gala is located on the Pori peninsula, on the left hand end of the cove. You will find it by following the path from the left hand end of the beach walking towards the east. You cannot see it until you get there.
You can climb down to the beach for a lovely swim inside the cave and if the sea is calm, swim through the narrow passage to the open sea and back. The name Gala (milk) was given by visitors from the colour of the water inside the cave. The original name is Tripiti.
The caves at Xylobatis Cove
North of Pori, at a distance of about 150m is the rocky cove of Xylobatis. There are two caves inside it on the right hand side, one with two entrances, the other with only one, but with a small beach inside, ideal for those seeking a cool, peaceful, secluded haven.
Access to the caves is only from the sea, but they are easy to swim to from the rocky beach – all you have to do is climb down the rocks, a bit steep, but not too difficult. The cove is on the way of the north sea current. If there is a strong northerly wind blowing, access to the caves becomes difficult.

***News Release***
Dan Celia: Do Earnings Reports, Gas Prices, China and Iran Headlines Predict Global Economic Slowdown?
PHILADELPHIA—Nationally syndicated host and biblical investing authority Dan Celia said today that headlines about earnings reports, gas prices, China, Iran and global growth will be the top economic newsmakers this week.
Celia discusses these and other global and economic headlines on his daily, three-hour "Financial Issues" program, heard on about 650 radio stations nationwide, as well as several television networks.
"We're expecting over 140 different S&P companies reporting," Celia said. "That will bring the grand total of S&P companies reporting by the end of this week to about 200. Out of the companies that reported last week, 78% either met or beat expectations. Hopefully, that trend will continue. If we listen to some media, we may think that earnings are falling into a black hole. That is not the case at all. In the beginning of the week, we saw oil surge about 3% higher. That's one of the largest increases we have seen in over a year, and we are continuing to see that oil surge. Additionally, Iran is threatening to close down the Strait of Hormuz.
"One of the biggest issues I'm concerned about is China," Celia added. "China is buying approximately 3.6 million barrels of oil a week from Iran. That is a problem. Most of the sales from Iran are to China, India and Turkey. Turkey is saying they will not comply and continue to buy oil from Iran. Global growth is still our biggest worry, or at least my biggest worry. It looks like things continue to worsen around the globe, and things are starting to slow a bit more significantly here in the U.S. Higher gasoline prices will not help. This will act like a tax on the American consumer, and that will be a problem as well. In my opinion, it's likely that the majority of this year's growth has already been put in, and we might not see much more through the next three quarters."

Four Pillars to the Investment Process
Investment Process
Our tactical investment process is a rejection of traditional buy and hold investing. We believe that being fully invested in equities during periods of intense speculation and monetary tightening within an overvalued market is unwise. In contrast, we believe there are market environments in which investors should be fully invested and at times should over-weight higher beta sectors and indices. Our goal is to be in concert with the overall economic/business cycle. We believe this alternative investment process is a more prudent way to grow investors' capital over time.
There are four pillars of our investment process. The first three pillars: valuation, monetary policy and investor sentiment are qualitative in nature and our final pillar is a quantitative assessment of volume and breadth based momentum. The initial part of our decision making is to determine our level of market exposure. Next we decide which type of exposure has the best risk/reward characteristics. We use relative strength and relative value models; comparing each segment of the market against the others. Typically, we use the following indexes: S&P 500, Russell 2000, S&P MidCap 400, Nasdaq 100, Dow Jones 30 and MSCI Emerging Markets Index. Using a combination of qualitative and quantitative metrics, we seek to manage risk and enhance alpha by tactically phasing into and out of major equity cycles. Our goal is to be in concert with the overall economic/ business cycle.

[imgbelt img=image002.jpg]
The Aberdeen American News has the most incredible story today. It's about Herman Schumacher, a livestock sale barn owner and longtime advocate for independent cattle producers, who is about ready to lose his property. Schumacher and others had the temerity some time ago to file suit against several large meatpacking companies (Tyson, Cargill and Swift) claiming the companies violated federal law by manipulating prices paid to cattle raisers. Schumacher won. In the spring of 2006, a South Dakota jury ruled in his favor, finding that the packers "knowingly used erroneous U.S. Department of Agriculture price reports to pay less to producers for beef cattle." The jurors awarded the plaintiffs $9.25 million.
An appeals court overturned that verdict and now Schumacher has a notice on his front door from the U.S. Marshal saying he owes about $16,000 to Tyson. (Picture above.) A federal judge ruled Schumacher owed that to defray the company's court costs. Now if Schumacher doesn't pay the bill, he'll lose his house in Herreid, South Dakota. He wins his case before a jury, but has that verdict taken away by judges.
"In a sense (the writ of execution) is on my door, but it's on the door of any producer that dares speak out" against meat packers, Schumacher said. "I really do think they're trying to make an example of me, to silence me."

Poland, Warsaw, 2nd OTP Translatathon
Location: Warsaw, LANG Language Training Center (See the virtual tour here)
Date: 1 June 2014 10:00 – 15:30
Goal: Community building through continuous engagement, introducing new people to the OTP, transcription training & transcribing TEDxWarsaw talks, fun... fun, fun, fun
Asia Pietrulewicz - introduction to transcribing talks, examples of bad and good transcription
Kinga Skorupska - introduction to the OTP - community pictures, Amara interface, workflow, task limit, GoogleDocs for TEDxWarsaw and on-site support
Mateusz Nowak - Organizing TEDx events, Speaker coaching, Q&A session about the recent TEDxPresidentialPalace event
Additional tips
- Ask the participants about their experience, motivation and how they found the event - hearing the answers will let you prepare even better next time :)
- Have all the important links ready in an easily accessible place, we had them in our local FB group in a sticky post (shorten the links prior to the event, because some people may not have FB)
- For ColorAmara tool to start working sometimes you need to restart the browser
- Tell the volunteers not to save their work manually too much, since each "save" creates an additional revision and comparing becomes more difficult
- Update the list of available tasks to work on the day prior - make sure your list includes the description of the talk and the original language to help them choose
- Allow the new participants to do transcription/translation tasks only - that is how they can learn the most about the basics
- Make sure you know who sits where and who everyone is by name to later tag them or help them find each other if they became friends :)
- Keep the e-mail address list for later to send a follow-up email (in 15 or so days?) with the next event date when you have it, links and the 30 day task deadline reminder - also ask if you can assist them in any way.
- Make rounds in the room to make sure everyone understood the instructions and give hints if you see them make basic mistakes in line breaks or line length - you want everyone to know you are there for them and feel free to ask you questions
- Have a break after the first three hours, either invite someone to talk to them, or do something together like jigsaw puzzles and word games :)
- We had 11 people, and they kept me busy with questions for the first two hours after we picked the tasks
- Make sure that everyone knows how to find new tasks, where to go, where they can learn more and that they know they have 30 days to finish their tasks, but of course they can finish earlier :)
- Give them a link to the rules of transcription - http://translations.ted.org/wiki/Zasady_transkrypcji#Transkrypcja and encourage them to write down the numbers 84, 42 and 21 and make sure that they understand which is which and why they are important.
- Be ready to answer people's questions on how to transcribe something best, but don't give them an answer right away, ask leading questions and let them learn on their own :)
- Encourage people to post questions to the FB OTP Polska group and other online forums and tell them what is the best way to do it (Give a link to the talk, the time when something is said and an explanation of your problem within the context of the talk)
- Ask when they prefer to have next workshops/translatathons, weekdays/weekends and tell them they can teach their friends the necessary how-to or even help them register :)
- You can plan and propose a fun activity to do after the translatathon on the same day
Thanks go to Magdalena Daniel for handling registration and FB announcements, to Krystian Aparta for helping us popularize the event, our presenters, the LANG Language Training Center for the awesome room with great internet and to all the participants, soon to become active contributors and community members! :)
