Site Review: Encore Careers

September 25, 2010

I  just published a review of a great site called Encore Careers on my retirement income blog. Please click on the link to take a look at it. It promises to reveal to retired persons how they can combine “purpose, passion and a paycheck.” I think you will enjoy looking at it and it may change your life!

Callaway Diablo Edge Irons Hybrid Combo Set

Amazon.com may not be at the top of your list when you think about buying golf clubs, but I urge you to take a closer look.  I was recently thinking about buying some new clubs (hope springs eternal!) and I check Amazon.  I have mentioned here before that I have learned that careful and extensive research frequently leads me back to Amazon to buy products I am looking for.  The set of clubs that is depicted here, for example, typically sells for at least $100 more in sporting goods stores and pro shops.  Of course, it is a premium set of clubs!  Amazon describes it as:

Receiving a gold medal from Golf Digest’s 2010 Hot List for Super Game Improvement Irons, this 8-club set of Callaway Diablo Edge irons provide increased distance without compromising feel or performance. The lower, deeper center of gravity (CG) makes the sweet spot more accessible and is in line with where amateurs most commonly hit the ball on the clubface, generating longer, consistent distance and improved accuracy. And Callaway’s core technologies like VFT, S2H2, Modified Tru-Bore, and a 360-Degree Undercut Channel work together to maximize distance, feel and playability.

The 8-club set features graphite shafts and includes the following clubs:  3 hybrid, 4 hybrid, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and pitching wedge, and is available in either left- or right-handed models.  Best of all, you can get customized shafts just for senior citizens!

Amazon has an enormous inventory of other clubs and golf equipment, as well.  I suggest that you click through using the link above to see what they have to offer.  I think you will be happy!

Product Review: Omron Heart Rate Monitor

July 28, 2010 Work & Play - Sports & Exercise

Heart rate monitors are particularly beneficial for people who are just beginning to exercise and who have led a sedentary life. The monitors enable them to learn their bodies and to work out at an appropriate pace. Those who are just beginning to work out tend to either work out at a pace that is far too easy for reaching fitness goals, or they work out at a pace that is too difficult, making it nearly impossible to continue the workout long enough for it to be beneficial.

Product Review: Family Genealogy Program

June 28, 2010 Work & Play - Genealogy

Perhaps my experience will sound familiar to you. I have been interested in learning more about my family genealogy since I was a young man. I have had the best of intentions and have collected hundreds of bits and pieces of information about my family over the years. Every time one of them passed away [...]
