We Have a New NameThanks for your patience as we took some time to change our name from Baby Bloomer Magazine to Boomer Coffee House. During this update, we also moved to a super high speed server and redesigned our site layout to feature more of the interesting articles submitted by so many of our contributors. Rumors of Food Shortages in the AirBy: Michael Phillips Last year I began hearing rumors of food shortages but was not sure how much to believe these stories. At the same time, the Derry Brownfield radio show from Missouri occasionaly mentioned the growing shortages in the food supply as well. Then in February, I found a short lived article with the headline "Middle Class May Be Subject To Food Rations, Warns UN," which can still be found in some remote corners of the web — just google the headline. So when Tiffany wrote her article on Power Quinoa, I was very interested because it seemd that Quinoa would be a grain that I could not only store for a rainy day, but also use as a healthy new food. I encourage everyone to read Tiffany's article "Power Quinoa," an Ancient Seed with Miraculous Qualities. Caution: This movie will CHALLENGE YOUR REALITY!Zeitgeist - The Movie: Federal Reserveby: Michael Phillips I recently discovered an excerpt from the full length movie Zeitgeist the Movie with insights into the secrets behind the creation of our world financial system and the Federal Reserve. With its extensive documentation and common sense logic, this film, I assure you will be worth the time spent. Go to Boomer Coffee House to watch these five video clips and you will learn a new way to view our current economic climate. Preparing Yourself for the Next Career OpportunityBy: John O'Leary I hope by now we’ve gotten the message. Big Daddy (or Mommy) Inc. won’t take care of us anymore. The social contract between company and employee has long been shredded. The corporate lifer has gone the way of the dodo bird. As Dan Pink warned us in his bestseller, Free Agent Nation: “In a climate of heightened risk, attachment is a poor strategy and cradle-to-grave security a false promise.” Emersonian self-reliance updated for the 21st century! Indulge Your Senses with Food, Wine & TravelBy: Chef John Wilson As the host of Culinary Vacations, a cooking school with five locations in Europe including Spain, France and Italy, I live in Europe five months out of the year, experiencing the European way of life first hand. Europeans have a very a different lifestyle, often spending as much as three hours for lunch or dinner. It’s a laid back and enjoyable way to soak in continental atmosphere and each other’s company.

See if Your Parents Quality for this Tax Credit!By: Sandra J. Fasulo Massachusetts’s seniors can claim the “SENIOR CIRCUIT BREAKER TAX CREDIT,” if the amount of their property taxes and 50% of their water and sewer bill exceeds their total income by 10%. Renters can claim it if 25% of their annual rental payment exceeds 10% of their total income, providing that they are not receiving a federal or state rent subsidy. The maximum credit you can receive is $900.00 for tax year 2007. Taking Care of Your Energetic BoundaryBy: Yuliya Cohen The notion of a boundary is very much culturally defined. The importance of maintaining appropriate personal boundaries is very much a part of American culture. As much as we are concerned with properly maintaining and respecting our own boundaries as well as those of others, most of us do not perceive a personal boundary as a concrete physical reality. |
