I love the LG brand. LG stands for “Life’s Good,” so they’ve really nailed it,right? Anyway, I have never owned an LG phone, but my son has and he liked it. I wouldn’t hesitate to buy one.

Here is an LG deal I just happened upon.

Have you heard of the  LG DoublePlay™ ? Well, if not, hold on tight because you’re going to love this! Here are some tempting details:

This phone has dual customizable touch screens — a big one and a smaller one that will operate independently or together. How cool is that? It also has a full slide-out QWERTY keyboard and you can Swype your texts in too, Like to multi-task? Who doesn’t? with the DoublePlay, you can do things like update your FaceBook pages while surfing the Web, sending a text or checking your email.

The DoublePlay also has an impressive 5-megapixel camera with LED flash and a video recorder! You’ll never be without a decent camera or video camera to grab those moments as they happen. After you capture your memories, it’s an easy thing to share them via messaging, email or Facebook.

So…how reliant are you on your phone for social networking? As for me, my phone is never far away and I use it constantly. If I’m out and about and something cool happens, I often snap a pic and upload it to my mobile uploads on Facebook. Recently, I lost a bunch of pictures and it was so nice to have all of those pictures saved in my Facebook account — I would otherwise have lost them!

So…are you tempted? Go see the DoublePlay yourself and see what you think! I’m not a huge texter…pretty much just with my mobile kids…but it’s nice having this capability. I probably send about 50 texts a month. If I had the DoublePlay that might change, I don’t know. How many texts do you send a month? The DoublePlay might be the force behind you finally having a phone that can keep up with you! Think of the social networking options! Leave a comment and tell me how you use your phone now and how you think the DoublePlay would change that!

Don’t forget, the DoublePlay is available exclusively at T-Mobile.

The chemical in microwave popcorn, called diacetyl, is so poisonous that it often destroys the lungs of workers in microwave popcorn factories. These workers develop an incurable disease known as bronchiolitis obliterans — popcorn lung.

Health professionals have known of this risk for years always assuming that it would only affect people working in the factory and breathing the especially high concentrations there.

In 2007, a man who ate two bags of microwave popcorn daily was diagnosed with popcorn lung. This indicates that diacetyl enters the air and lungs when microwave popcorn is cooking. In response, most microwave popcorn companies removed diacetyl and replaced it with chemicals having the same effects.

Suffering from recurring headaches, migraines, depression, anxiety, arthritis, ringing in the ears, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, irritable bowel syndrome, Crohn’s disease, or acid reflux is becoming more and more common. The symptoms of Artificial Sweetener Disease can change daily, depending on how much sweeteners you consume.

Ever hear the frequent adage: “there’s not enough artificial sweetener in any specific product to cause health concerns?” Well, as of 2011, there are chemical sweeteners in more than 25 percent of all foods and drinks. The effect of these chemicals is compromised health…thanks to little regulation of chemical agents in food.

Don’t look for a prescription drug to solve the health issues created by artificial sweeteners. Stop consuming them and your health will improve.

US FDA has issued a new warning to pet owners about the possible toxicity of some pet treats imported from China. So far in 2011, at least 70 dogs have been sickened or killed by jerky products imported from China. Dog owners who observe any symptoms associated with these treats should stop using them.

Many kinds of pet treats have also been subjected to irradiation treatments. This deadly process makes food toxic.

When purchasing any pet food or treats read labels carefully to identify the product origin. Then verify whether or not the food has been treated with irradiation.

High-frequency electromagnetic radiation (EMR) can increase cancer risk.

EMR is a toxin that you can see or feel. Erroneous studies assert that current EMR exposure levels are safe. The US government has even gone so far as to establish faulty guidelines for EMR exposure. It purports safe levels to be thousands of times higher than what scientists have proven to be safe. In fact, studies reveal that current amounts of EMR from towers and antennas drastically alter the body’s cellular processes — causing cancer and other diseases. The amount of radiation that we are exposed to doubles annually.

New cell towers are built every day. Most folks living in cities have between 30-100 microwave towers/antennas within four miles of their homes. These towers emit electromagnetic fields linked to cancer.

Dangers lurk inside the home, too. Wi-Fi routers, baby monitors, and cordless phones give off high-frequency radiation linked to cancer. Cordless phones emit the same amount of radiation as a cell phone. Wi-Fi routers are also dangerous.

Got any cute puppies or babies around the house? Got an opinion about which is cuter? Of course you do! Everyone does!

Now’s your chance to vote in the Puppies vs. Babies online contest  . Consider the two  – Puppies vs. Babies  — and decide which you prefer. After you make up your mind, head over to the online contest and register your vote. You have from right this minute until November 23rd to vote. Get going, now…the winning puppy or baby will win $5,000!

It’s too late to enter the contest, but it’s not too late to vote. I wish I had known about this contest before, because I’m quite sure that this picture of my princess would have been in the running.

Don’t you agree?

Heart failure is an oft-deadly condition that occurs when the heart can’t pump an adequate amount of oxygen and blood throughout the body. Symptoms include fatigue, appetite reduction, fluid build-up and kidney failure. Shortness of breath also happens when blood accumulates behind the heart. This leads to increased fluid in the lungs.

Heart failure has no cure. Some medications and lifestyle changes can help people live longer. Sometimes heart failure patients need heart transplants.

There’s a new treatment that might help heart failure patients. No, it’s not any type of surgery even a prescription. It’s vitamin C.

Heart failure patients with low vitamin C intake were over two times more likely to have higher levels of high sensitivity C-Reactive protein (hsCRP) — a marker for inflammation and a risk factor for heart disease.

Because inflammation is a significant symptom in heart failure, and a lack of vitamin C could make inflammation worse. By taking in adequate vitamin C, you may be able to significantly lessen inflammation and thereby lessen heart failure.
