There are 40 million seniors in the U.S. alone and 16 million of them are single.  What’s more, those numbers are set to double in the next 30 years.  That’s a lot of lonely people looking for companionship and more. Senior Dating is a new website that aims to demystify the whole subject and offer practical advice and tips on the subject of dating in later life.

It was founded by Kathy Damer, whose experience as the Marketing Director of a large retirement community near Toronto, Canada, gave her a wide knowledge and understanding of the personal challenges facing seniors today. “Many people in later life find themselves single again, either through bereavement or divorce, and have no idea how to go about finding a partner,” explains Kathy Damer, “It’s a natural human instinct to want to connect and share your life with someone at any age but it can be hugely intimidating to start again in your senior years.” “I found that an increasing number of people were asking me for advice about senior dating and how to meet people online and I wanted to guide them towards a trusted source of information.  The trouble was that I couldn’t find one!” So Kathy set out to create that trusted source to meet the growing needs of an increasingly web-savvy senior population.  40% of seniors now have a computer at home and in the U.S., there are over 50,000 seniors enrolled in college courses.

Senior-dating.org features a weekly blog about all aspects of dating and relationships in later life, with a particular focus on helping seniors meet people online.  It also features a regularly updated review of the best senior dating services and will also cover other related issues such as health and well-being...Read more here or see the site now

Patients and their families are invited to visit the Asbestos.net site (http://www.asbestos.net/) where individual videos are displayed throughout the content of the site and accessible by clicking 'Watch This Article' on many of the most important articles, or find the complete collection in one place directly on the YouTube.com website (http://www.youtube.com/asbestosnet).

According to Bill Mulligan, Director of Client Advocacy at Asbestos.net, "Being medical in nature, we recognized early on that the subject material covered on Asbestos.net can be overwhelming for the average person who has been diagnosed with mesothelioma to read and comprehend. One of the main focuses of this site and project is to distill the information into a form that makes it accessible to those that have been diagnosed - something that we have tried to accomplish in all aspects of the site. The videos were just a natural extension of this concept: Because both the topic and the terminology can be unfamiliar and confusing, it's often easier to listen to a person presenting the material rather than try to digest it in written form."

Having taken over a year to produce, this collection of videos represents the most important and relevant topics to those who have been diagnosed with mesothelioma or another form of asbestos cancer, and cover just a portion of the thousands of pages of content, many of which have been reviewed by a licensed oncologist, published on the Asbestos.net site. Asbestos.net is confident that those affected by this deadly condition will truly benefit from the information contained within this collection of videos, allowing them some comfort in the knowledge...Read more here or see the site now

An innovative medical website at MyPediatricianOnline.com has launched. Unlike anything currently available on the Internet, the site has been developed to provide parents with personalized online pediatric advice and information directly from a board certified pediatrician.

For the first time parents have unlimited, continuous access to an online pediatrician. Parents who join My Pediatrician Online are able to ask a pediatrician as many questions as they wish as often as they like, and receive a prompt answer normally within minutes. Whether they are at home, the office, or on vacation, parents can now use their computer to keep in constant contact with an online pediatrician they can turn to whenever and wherever they have questions about their child’s health. My Pediatrician Online is a much needed service, particularly for families who for whatever reason may not have access to a pediatrician at the moment. Unfortunately, there seems to be more of these families every year. The Journal of The American Medical Association estimates that more than 9 million children in the United States currently do not have health insurance. That number doubles if you include those children who have breaks in their health coverage throughout the year. On February 25, 2009 the Kaiser Family Foundation released a survey of 1200 adults that speaks volumes about the present lack of affordability of health care in the United States. The survey found that more than half of those polled said someone in their household cut back on needed health care in the past 12 months because of cost concerns...click to read more

HeadAndNeck.com is designed to help guide severe headache sufferers who, misdiagnosed with migraine, get little relief and are forced to live a life of chronic pain, lost hope, depression and/or secondary effects of the drugs that they are given to control the pain. Many times these drugs have little positive effect. Most severe headaches are not migraine but are treated as such. The majority of headaches are caused by spasms in the muscles of the head and neck, a problem called Temporomandibular joint dysfunction, or TMJ syndrome, which, most often, can be successfully treated without drugs or surgery.

Visitors to www.headandneck.com can download, at no cost, TMJ Syndrome - The Overlooked Diagnosis, a classic book written for the layman by Dr. A. Richard Goldman. Dr. Goldman is director of the Head and Neck Pain Center, in Chicago, owner of the website. This book deals with the causes and diagnosis of and treatments for TMJ Syndrome. It also includes many case histories. Additionally, www.headandneck.com contains several video interviews with patients who had been misdiagnosed, as above, who had been helped by the techniques discussed in this website...Click to read more.

A brand new range of “brainwave CDs” has been publicly launched by Inspire3 Ltd, designed at seriously increasing your mental powers. The 6-CD program, known as the “Brain Evolution System,” helps increase thinking speed, boost creativity, raise energy levels, improve your memory, and release bad habits.  A companion web site with further details is also available at http://www.brainev.com.

Built on over 150 years of brainwave research, the program was developed by brainwave pioneer Michael Kelley – and uses special sounds to help change brainwave patterns. The Brain Evolution System was originally launched early 2006, and currently enjoys over 10,000 users worldwide. Among its many supporters are best-selling author Mark Joyner, of Simpleology.com, and self-development leader Karl Moore.

Initially, the program was only available on direct recommendation – however this month sees the Brain Evolution System launch direct to the public for the first time ever. Program developer, Lee Benson, said: “This is possibly the most powerful self-development technology on earth. It has the ability to change your life – just by listening to a simple CD, once per day.”

The Brain Evolution System was developed by brainwave pioneer Michael Kelley, using the patent-pending 3-Point Dynamic Entrainment Audio Process. This technology combines three leading methods of influencing brainwaves, to help ensure the mind is placed into a state of peak performance while listening to the program.

Brain Evolution System user Bob Bly, best-selling author of over 65 books, commented on the program: “The first time I listened, it immediately placed me into a calmer, more peaceful, more contemplative mood. Its calming sounds immediately enabled me to concentrate fully on the piece I was writing. I love this!"

The entire 6-level program is currently available as a 21-day trial, and each purchase comes with its own 7-month, no-questions-asked guarantee. In addition, the official website is currently offering two month’s supply of its mind-sharpening supplement, Acuity, when ordering.
