FOREVER FATHERS
  
This month we celebrate Father's Day.
Even though my dad passed away in 2009, this day remains special as my family honors his memory every year.
Cheers to our fathers, both near and far.
GULF MAIDEN
I have known my friend Lesley since we were 5 years old.
We were reminiscing about our fathers, who have both passed on.
A couple hours later, I see an email in my Inbox with a picture of the Gulf Maiden.
My dad used to own this vessel and I remember how he would always be repairing his nets at the Steveston docks with his other fishermen pals.
Lesley was able to locate it using www.VesselFinder.com.
95% OF ALZHEIMER'S IS PREVENTABLE
I like watching Diary of a CEO with Steven Bartlett because of the guest speakers.
My mother is showing signs of mild cognitive decline, a precursor of dementia.
Less than 5% of dementia is due to genetic mutations; the rest is due to our lifestyle choices.
Learning new skills prevents cognitive decline, but even more effective than that is lifting heavy weights.
Recently, found this compelling interview with Dr. Louisa Nicola.
Studies show that resistance training releases Natural Killer cells that significantly reduce prostate cancer, colon cancer, and breast cancer.
This interview with Dr Rhonda Patrick reinforces the matter.
