Health:
Did you know that you start to lose 20% of your muscle mass in each decade after age 30? Did you know that men are as subject to bone loss to osteoporosis as women? Did you know that the fifth leading cause of death for people over 65 is falling?
All of these problems, plus adult onset diabetes, loss of balance, flexibility, weight loss,and a host of other things can be reduced or prevented by weight lifting two or three times a week. The best sytem I know of is a computerized, fixed weight system. It is widely available.
Start now to extend your health and longevity!
Translation Service:
A new site for translation of several languages is quite good. It also has a spoken facility so that if you want to say something in a speech or whatever, the text is spoken for you to imitate.
It is not perfect, but acceptable, and if one has some working knowledge of the language, it is easily corrected.
