🍎 Health Hack: To Egg or Not to Egg

Eggs Take a Beating (Again)
For decades, eggs were seen as coronary landmines because of their high cholesterol content. But in recent years, eggs’ reputation improved as accumulating research suggested that dietary cholesterol has little effect on blood cholesterol in most people. The latest headline-making twist in the egg-and-cholesterol saga was a major study in JAMA in March, which linked increasing egg intake with small increases in heart disease and mortality rate.

🔤 Grammar Tip: Do I Capitalize or Not Capitalize?

When To Capitalize and When Not to Capitalize

  1. Capitalize ‘I’
  2. Capitalize nations, national nouns and adjectives – French, Russian, English, Italy, Canadian, etc.
  3. Capitalize the first letter of the first word in a new sentence or question
  4. Do NOT capitalize common nouns, nouns are only capitalized if they are the name of something
  5. Capitalize proper names of people, institutions, festivals, etc.
An example: I go to university. (common noun -> university)

BUT
I go to the University of Texas. (noun used as proper name)

Today’s Poem ~ Promise Yourself

Promise Yourself

Christian D. Larson

Promise Yourself
To be so strong that nothing
can disturb your peace of mind.
To talk health, happiness, and prosperity
to every person you meet.

To make all your friends feel
that there is something in them
To look at the sunny side of everything
and make your optimism come true.

To think only the best, to work only for the best,
and to expect only the best.
To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others
as you are about your own.

To forget the mistakes of the past
and press on to the greater achievements of the future.
To wear a cheerful countenance at all times
and give every living creature you meet a smile.

To give so much time to the improvement of yourself
that you have no time to criticize others.
To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear,
and too happy to permit the presence of trouble.

To think well of yourself and to proclaim this fact to the world,
not in loud words but great deeds.
To live in faith that the whole world is on your side
so long as you are true to the best that is in you.”

Today’s Poem ~ Time Is

Time Is

Henry Van Dyke

Time is
Too Slow for those who Wait,
Too Swift for those who Fear,
Too Long for those who Grieve,
Too Short for those who Rejoice;
But for those who Love,
Time is not.

🔤 Grammar Tip: Is It Better to “Resign” or “Re-sign”?

Resign and Re-sign

Resign — without the hyphen — means to quit your job and the “s” is pronounced like a “z.”

Example: My boss didn’t want to increase my salary so I decided to resign. This will be my last week of work.

Re-sign — with the hyphen — means to sign a contract again and it usually also means that you’ve decided to stay in your current job! In re-sign, the “s” is pronounced as an “s,” and you emphasize the first syllable.

Example: I love my current job, so I happily re-signed for another year.
