Gluten Actually Unbinds Us?

We can all rest now, a very popular cereal has finally made it possible for us to eat together because as you know, this was a problem before their ingenuity kicked in.

I admit, I like to read stuff while I eat and okay, do other stuff. Newspapers and magazines (and now online media) is great but I also enjoy reading the boxes that products come in. i.e., food, soap, toothpaste whatever. This is where the real marketing gems can be found and how these products are not just effective, but actually are changing the world, one family at a time.

Killing Jesus Review

I was enticed to pick up a copy of this non fiction book “Killing Jesus, A History” by Bill O’Reilly and Martin Dugard after hearing him on Imus in the Morning several times on my way to work. I was also intrigued to read “Killing Lincoln” but after starting with “Jesus” I think I’ll pass.

Killing Jesus details the historical and political events that led to the demise of the most influential man in world history: Jesus of Nazareth. Continue reading “Killing Jesus Book Review”

Buy Over the Edge of the World: Magellan’s Terrifying Circumnavigation of the Globe

 

Over The Edge of The World Recommendation:

To all lovers of historical literature I highly recommend Laurence Bergreen’sOver the Edge of the World”.

If you are picking up this book, it is likely that you already know something about Ferdinand Magellan and his famous circumnavigation of the globe from 1519 to 1521. However, the detail Bergreen goes into regarding the geopolitical landscape of the time and the events leading up to Magellan’s voyage is impressive and may not be known to the casual reader of historical works. “Over the Edge of the World” employs impeccable research and a variety of little known first-hand accounts to weave a story that rivals any popular novel.
