Founded by leaders of the environmental movement following the first Earth Day, the League of Conservation Voters, (LCV), the political voice of the national environmental and conservation community and the only organization working full-time to educate citizens about the environmental voting records of Congress, is inviting its members to nominate Representatives and Senators to be considered for the Dirty Dozen list.
The Dirty Dozen list is a program that targets members of Congress, (regardless of party affiliation), who consistently vote against the environment. To help in making your choice, take a look at LCV National Environmental Scorecard, published since 1970. It ranks every member of Congress on his or her environmental record.
In addition to working for a new energy future, LCV spent much of 2007 building support for a science-based global warming bill to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by at least 15-20 percent by 2020 and 80 percent by 2050.

Specifically designed for slip prevention during yoga practice, the 100% silicone eco nubs, (healthy for mother earth), grip the mat or carpet, keeping your hands and feet from slipping mid-stretch.

These yoga towels are super absorbent, and put a hygenic layer between you and the yoga mat, (or any exercise equipment). Use them on the other side too, to stimulate pressure points on hands and feet.

To prolong the life of the towel, be sure to machine wash in cold water and tumble dry on a delicate (cool) cycle.
Size: 24″x 64″, 17″x 26″, 25″x 80″

Great for yoga-on-the-go when you are traveling!

Dr F. Karsch,M.D. advises: “Rinse the teeth and gums very thoroughly with a tablespoon of Sesame or Sunflower oil . Do it slowly, (but do not swallow), for 15-20 minutes up to three times a day on an empty stomach.”
This simple method can completely heal a wide variety of diseases which would normally be treated by powerful or potent drugs or by an operation, usually with significant side-effects.

The best part of this healing method is its sheer simplicity. It consists of swishing cold-pressed oil in the mouth( Sunflower or Seasme). The healing process is accomplished by the body on its own. In this way, one can potentially heal cells, tissue and all organs simultaneously; the body itself gets rid of toxic waste without disturbing the healthy microflora.

As Dr. Karach puts it, human beings are living only half their life span. We could potentially live healthy to be 140 to 150 years old. Not bad, right…
