Obama's Request On Capitol Hill

President Obama is visiting Capitol Hill today. Obama is requesting authority to order U.S. military training and arms to confront the growing danger of Islamic State militants in Syria.

A Local Search

According to WTVO, the local police and the F-B-I are searching the Pecatonica River for evidence in a felony investigation. Police say  the public isn't in danger and the search could last until Friday.

Are Short Relationships Beneficial?

Ending a relationship is difficult. I found a survey that found that women are most likely to end things but also can take up to 30% longer getting over it. As I was telling my daughter yesterday, that it takes an average of one month for every year you spend together to get over the breakup. She vowed she would keep her relationships short, so she could get over them quicker. I really don't know if that's a good thing?

If You Just Gotta Have It...

If you have been craving a certain type of food lately, your body could be lacking something. Like, if you're craving carbs, it might mean you're low on amino acid, so stock up on eggs, and milk. Can't get enough of cheese? You may need to add more calcium to your meals. Learn more about your cravings ------>here!
