How Dangerous Is High Cholesterol?
~~
Well, it seems these years of warnings that the medical and pharmaceutical industries used to boogieman us over high levels of cholesterol - and busily marketed expensive drugs to counteract them - were something of a waste. Now it can be told that such levels are markers of underlying imbalances which treating high cholesterol hasn't addressed at all, newer studies find.
Dr. Lipman's article How Bad Is Cholesterol? reveals a broader picture and makes a lot of sense to me so I hope you'll check it out either before or after you bite into that cream-filled doughnut because you might find yourself feeling a little less guilty, if a smidge weightier!
Delicious Banana Bread might be the wiser choice, yes?

Yellow trillium, wake robins: in moonlight
~
Here in the moonlight if not the spotlight, my botanical drawing of Yellow trillium, aka wake-robins, soaking up moonbeams along with falling raindrops!
Here are a few bio details on the charming little April to May blooms of the Yellow trillium with a lovely cheesecake photo included.
Plus, snag yourself a peek at my pencil rendition of the other color trillium bloom in, Purple trillium which is actually a deep maroon. My illustration tends toward the purple side but its fairy visitor doesn't seem to mind in the least.
And on an Astrology-and-Art note, this is the week that the International Astrology Day Blogathon 2010 goes Live on March 19 -- yet you may pre-view my Cosmic Art Show this very minute. There you'll find invitations to a new Cosmic Flower Art Slideshow and a 'psychedelic' Kaleidoscope Art Show, too.
Enjoy!

Vitamin D deficiency worldwide
~~
Did you know that there'a a worldwide epidemic of Vitamin D deficiency going on?
More and more studies have shown the importance of Vitamin D in maintaining health including fighting off cancer, diabetes, and other health horrors. Let Mike Adams tell you all about it and pass me my bottle of Vitamin D. Seriously - I started taking high potency softgells about 3 months ago and it's become a habit of the bestest kind!

Coming Soon: International Astrology Day 2010
~~
Coming soon to an astrologer or Astrology website or blog near you: International Astrology Day or, as it is sometimes called, World Astrology Day!
Celebrated each year at the time of the Aries Ingress - Spring Equinox - International Astrology Day coincides with the start of the Iranian calendar yet here in the west, Astrology is based more on the Sun with eastern Astrology being based on a lunar calendar...thus the Crescent Moon symbol on flags of the Middle East.
For Spring Equinox 2010 - and knowing what a fix the world is in - a group of astrologers/authors are planning a veritable smorgasbord of articles to aid us in dealing practically on a personal level with the Cardinal T-Square pattern of planetary energies in effect from Spring 2010 into 2014. From this situation alone we may expect to find more financial and political frettings to appear on the global menu than before so please stay tuned for more details on how to glom into the 1st Annual International Astrology Day Blogathon 2010 which will publish to the world on Friday, March 19!
Alternately, you may wish to snoop around Donna Cunningham's excellent blog Skywriter for the latest Blogathon info and details.

Thought you might enjoy a newly created 'Rainy Day Art Cube' of mine!
Am still in Astrology Day Blogathon 2010 mode since the carnival of informative articles authored by a variety of astrologers doesn't go Live until Friday March 19, 2010 and there are more preparations under way as I type!
Now that last was a Chiron-inspired statement, wasn't it? Be Here NOW, says He.
Why, I think the ongoing and inspirational Neptune-Chiron conjunction in Aquarius is about to have even more beneficial effects upon a harried collective...it is to be hoped! jc

Snow! in Photo and Art
``
With the Northeast due for yet another snowstorm, I'm in Georgia with snowflakes on my mind...
Snowy photo courtesy of Maya Henderson, drawing Snowy Path by yours truly...
Then there's my totally untested theory that whatever sort of weather a baby is born into (or is greeted by when brought home from the hospital) is the kind they're fascinated by. In Maya's and my cases, it was snow...hers in Washington DC, mine in Athens, GA.
Not conclusive but I'm sticking it to it like snow clinging to a cold treetop!
