What does the Russian space program have to do with chiropractic care? Quite a bit, according to Tom Lenahan, DC.
Dr. Lenahan, who has practiced chiropractic as a second career for 15 years, says he’s seen tremendous breakthroughs in patient healing through the use of electrical stimulation–a concept first researched by the Russians for their space program. The Russian government developed the research because it wasn’t practical to send an entire pharmacy along to keep their space explorers healthy. So, Russian scientists started looking for healing alternatives.
“As they began to explore how electricity works in the body, they realized it’s the body’s primary driver system,” says Lenahan. The researchers found that the body has two electrical components. The first, the nervous system, is like the hard wiring, says Dr. Lenahan. The second wasn’t as well understood.
“They discovered the body has a second component to it,” Lenahan continues. “It is a semi-conducting system in the body, much like your computer. They realized they could stimulate that fascial, semi-conducting system to send a signal to the brain and get it to produce various neuropeptides. This gave them an effective, efficient means of treatment for anything they would run into in space. It’s still one of the primary components of the Russian battlefield first-aid kit.”
It might still sound like a strange fit with chiropractic techniques, but Lenahan insists it isn’t. In fact, Lenahan discovered the power of electrical stimulation in his own quest to find better ways to help his chiropractic patients.
“As I got into chiropractic school, I realized there were many facets that were needed to help the body heal,” says Dr. Lenahan. “In our profession, there are those who are ’straights’ and those who are ‘mixers.’ I’m the mixer’s mixer. I’ve always sought avenues and technology that would benefit my patients.”
That’s why he was so excited when he found the technology of electrical stimulation.
“It works for acute injuries, but also for the chronic degenerative condition,” he says. “This technology is able to add energy into the system and retard that degenerative process.”
Not only will this technique allow chiropractors to help their patients in ways never thought possible, says Lenahan, but it will also result in a boost in chiropractic practices.
“The…units will let you address really severe pain. They will help you alleviate that and get your patients back in, and keep them coming in,” Dr. Lenahan explains.
“A lot of times we lose patients because the pain is so severe, and they feel they have to go someplace and get drugs. This will help you manage that type of process.”

Who does not like stories? I am not talking only about children, but also for adults. Whether you are watching television or reading a book, anything in form of story holds the attention. We all love to hear stories. The art of story telling has to be learnt. Not everyone can tell a story in an interesting way. How is dating and story telling connected? Let me tell you.
During dates, especially during the first date with a person, it sometimes becomes difficult to converse. We cannot think of any good topic that can be discussed. We are advised that we should avoid talking about religion and politics. We are told that we should not ask many intimate questions. We are told that we should avoid talking about our finances and our past relationships. We are told to avoid so many tings by different experts that some of us do not understand what they should talk about with their date.
The answer is – tell stories. Look back at your life and think of instances that were funny and exciting. They brought you much fun and excitement, isn’t it? Talk of those instances in form of stories. Think of instances- anything that happened in your office or your neighborhood, something that happened when you were holidaying. Any incident that was funny and exciting can be turned into a story. A story always holds the attention. Even now when you are an adult, a good story will hold your attention. Stories have an attraction for the human mind. Use stories during your date.
Once you develop the art of story telling, you will not find it difficult at all to hold attention of your date at all times. You will not feel embarrassed with the silence. Read newspapers and find out how they tell stories. Study the method of beginning of the story, the building up of the story and the ending. Read few stories as a student. You will learn many ideas about how to tell a story in a gripping manner during a date.

Christmas stories have been told since Christmas began.  When families gather together during the holidays, it is always important to include personal traditions that involve everyone.  Having a reading of a Christmas story can be a great tradition to incorporate into your family’s holiday events. 

There are several ways you can integrate a reading of a Christmas story or Christmas stories into your repertoire.    Think about your family’s personality when decided what is best.  Perhaps you may ask the oldest member of the family to pick a story and have everyone gather around for a peaceful reading.  If that seems to calm and normal for your family, perhaps you can ask each member to pick a Christmas story they would like to share and have them even act it out or include some audience participation.  The means in which the story is presented should be unique to your family to make it a truly special memory.

The theme of the Christmas story can also vary.  Some families may find that funny Christmas stories fit well.  Other families may want to really relay a deep or spiritual message and may prefer an inspirational Christmas story.  If you think that you would like to have multiple stories presented, you may want to use many styles of Christmas stories.  The important thing is that you pick something that everyone in the family will appreciate and enjoy.

There are many classic Christmas stories available online, as well as wonderful stories you may have never heard before.  Read through several stories on the Internet and pick one or more that you think would resonate best with your family.  Creating simple traditions that get everyone together makes Christmas memories that are priceless.  You can almost guarantee that your family will continue the tradition for generations to come.

The era of space exploration has arrived and the need for absolute knowledge has increased faster than before. Scientists need to answer more questions than before, concerning the origin of the universe and the best way to do this is by sending probes into space and analyzing data.

Probes that collect this valuable information are developed so that they can resist the hardest conditions in space and so far, they have done a great job.

Computers are an important asset when it comes to space exploration technology because with their help researchers understood how many of the secrets of the creation of the Universe have happened. The reason why computers are so good at what they do is because they have an amazing processing power and are able do render data a lot faster than the average person. Even astronauts rely on computers when they need guidance for their ships and are totally blind and helpless, without their help.

Most of the technology used today in our space exploration missions comes from help from computers. Every field has benefited from computer’s assistance and thus, important breakthroughs have been accomplished. There is no reason to doubt computers because they can excel in areas where we could never begin to comprehend.

The best part about computers is that by being used on such a frequent basis, the need for then to bee more efficient and powerful increases and thus, they get to be upgraded and fitted to suit our demands. Every couple of months, computers get upgraded and there is no way you can keep up with the technology.

A good short story has withstood the test of time and remains as vital and relevant today as it was one hundred years ago.

Short story enables busy readers to “shop around” for storytellers with whom they may eventually enjoy longer relationships.

A short slice of life

So what do you do when you have to tell a fairy story, or love story and have to make it long enough to sustain your nephew’s interest but short enough to end before he falls asleep? You find a story to tell. If you remember enough of what you felt strongly about – recently or from a long time ago – you tell him that.

And do you remember those scary ghost stories grand-mom used to tell, bring them back in your recollection with the help of these children’s ghost story.

If, like most of us, you don’t, you fall back on short stories you cajoled out of parents and uncles and aunts and want to make them fresh short stories in today’s connotation. The short story grew out of an increasing readership’s desire for shorter reading material.

It needs a skill to cultivate a short story from your recollected thoughts for course or arrangement of events. Even it is more challenging when you have to co-relate something what morals you need to convey thorough the story.

Now no worries, you have everything here what you would have imagined for; short stories, ghost story, love story, and basically you are in short love stories gallery.

Hey, are you looking for love making stories, if yes, you will find how a soldier is making love story in some frontier land.

We know our thoughts give meaning to our actions and they should be conveyed to Tom by these kid’s stories which fulfill the flair of funny short stories, isn’t it?

We are required to contact, welcome and log in any and all sentient races or multibeings in this quadrant of the Universe, without prejudice, fear or favor. So let’s join the voyage.

How to Be a Funny Guy

Women love funny guys. However, don’t confuse it with being ‘goofy.’
It’s very easy to be funny by being goofy and having others laugh at you – but it is not good. Why? When people are laughing at you, you are generally lower in social status than they are.
Ever seen a documentary with hyenas? The omega male is the one that always gets picked on and overpowered. He eats last and almost never gets to breed with the females.
Why? The offspring he would create might have his omega genes and possibly inherit his behaviors, thus making it hard for them to survive.
Much is the same with humans. If you are being the ‘goof of the group’ and people are always laughing at you, then you will be selected last (if at all) by females.
Instead of being someone to laugh at, you should focus on showing others how to laugh at life, themselves and situations. Help people laugh about the weird, charming, goofy and funny nature of things.
You’ll notice that I included ‘goofy.’ Yes, you can still engage in goofy humor. It’s playful, disarming and I personally love it. Just don’t be a goof to laugh at.
I’m also not suggesting that you take yourself ultra-seriously and never allow anyone to have a laugh at your expense. Just don’t encourage it in order to get the approval or attention of those around you.
If others laugh at something you said or did, have enough confidence to laugh with them, or reverse the joke back on the person/people.
For example: You walk out of the bathroom and your zipper is undone. Suddenly, your friend John points, laughs and begins the subtle social process of having everyone get involved and laugh at you.
You stop walking. Remaining composed, you begin to nod slowly. With a grin on your face, you say, “I knew it – John is secretly gay! What’s the first thing he looks at when I walk into a room? My zipper – John, you have issues man.”
Congratulations. You have just defused the situation and John probably feels a little silly for pointing it out. He may just think twice before trying that sort of thing on you again.
Note: Be playful with this kind of behavior. Don’t become the loser who tries to make people feel lousy in front of others. The point is to maintain your air of social status, while being playful and not becoming the butt of jokes.
There are many ways to be funny in an attractive way. However, you must remember that no technique or funny line will be a quick fix for success with women and dating.
Being funny includes more than funny lines or jokes. Pick out the funniest comedian you know (Eddie Murphy, Jerry Seinfeld, Chris Rock, etc) and repeat one of their jokes to your friends.
Why is it that the joke sounds better coming from the comedian than it does from you? It’s because something else is going on when the successful comedian is telling the joke.
Pay attention to:
- Their level of confidence.
- Their body language, especially facial expressions.
- Well-placed tonality changes.
- When and how they pause for effect before delivering punch lines.
- Their verbal and non-verbal reactions they make when people start laughing at their jokes.
- How they structure their stories.
- How they insert bits from previous jokes into new stories for extra laughs (i.e. callback humor).
More tips on how to be funny:
- Watch comedy movies.
- Listen to audio recordings of successful male comedians.
- Don’t try to impress women with humor
Being funny and entertaining can spark massive attraction. However, a woman will lose her attraction for you the moment she senses you’re doing it to impress her.
Why? She will realize that you see her as the prize to be won and it will usually kill off most of the attraction she has for you.
So, never try to win a woman over by being a performing monkey. It simply does not work.
She may be laughing and giggling at things you are saying/doing, but secretly she will see you as having entertainment value rather than sexual value.
If she perceives you as her entertainer and you try to escalate to any form of intimacy, you will most likely be flatly rejected.
