Weekly Roundup - Living On Nothing Edition Category: Roundups | Comments(15)

Did you hear about the guy that lives on nothing? No seriously, he lives on zero dollars a day. Meet Daniel Suelo, who lives in a cave outside Moab, Utah. Suelo has no mortgage, no car payment, no debt of any kind. He also has no home, no car, no television, and absolutely no “creature comforts.” But he does have a lot of creatures, as in the mice and bugs that scurry about the cave floor he’s called home for the last three years.

To us, Suelo probably sounds a little extreme. Actually, he probably sounds very extreme. After all, I suspect most of you reading this are doing so under the protection of some sort of man-made shelter, and with some amount of money on your person, and probably a few needs for money, too. And who doesn’t need money unless they have completely unplugged from the grid? Still, it’s an amusing story about a guy who rejects all forms of consumerism as we know it.

The Frugal Roundup

Contentment: A Great Financial Principle. If I had to name one required emotion for living a frugal lifestyle it would be contentment. Once you are content with your belongings and your lot in life you can ignore forces attempting to separate you from your money. (@Personal Finance by the Book)

Over-Saving for Retirement? Is it possible to “over-save” for retirement? Yes, I think so. At some point I like the idea of putting some money aside in taxable investments outside of retirement funds, to be accessed prior to traditional retirement age. (@The Simple Dollar)

5 Reasons To Line Dry Your Laundry. My wife and I may soon be installing a clothesline in our backyard. In many neighborhoods they are frowned upon - one of the reasons I don’t like living in a neighborhood. I digress.

have chili dogs, which, of course, require an order of onion rings and a big rootbeer also.<<<

While you are waiting for your order, take one or two of the peppermint/papaya pills with a good slug of water and forget your problems, for you will not pay for having a good meal.

Or that is how I do it.

There are few Americans with the knowledge to survive, and few realize just how easy it is to hit the streets.

It is no longer the drunken dope addict, but today is the homeless family.

I listen to Las Vegas police scanner, as it is the closest to me that I have found, only 100 miles away and it cover Laughlin, so it comes within 25 miles of me.

I think it’s a tablespoon per day in a glass of water. The malic acid in the vinegar is supposed to help your liver and the acidity in your stomach. On thread #1 there was a post about the health benefits of ACV. I’ll see if I can find it.<<<

Liberté Yogourt Issues Allergy Alert on Undeclared Walnuts and Plums in Its Méditerranée Wild Blackberry Yogourt 6oz Product Distributed in the USA

Contact:
Roger Dickhout
CEO Liberté Brand Products
1-416-707-8761
1-905-458-3700

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – St.Hubert Quebec,Canada - August 12, 2009 - Liberté Brand Products, St Hubert, Quebec, Canada announced that it is recalling all Liberté Méditerranée Wild Blackberry Yogourt 6 oz code dated Sept 02 distributed in the USA because it may contain undeclared walnuts and plums. People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to walnuts run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume the product.

Liberté Méditerranée Wild Blackberry yogourt was distributed nationwide. The product is packaged in a 6oz retail plastic container with the expiry code date of September 02 printed on the foil lid. The UPC Bar code is 0 65684 65434 5.

Liberte initiated the recall on August 11th 2009, when the company received an email from a consumer that found that containers labelled as Liberté Wild Blackberry yogourt actually contained the Liberté Méditerranée Plum and Walnut fruit preparation. Notwithstanding our internal quality safeguards, the Plum and Walnut filling was inadvertently put into the Wild Blackberry containers for some subset of this production run. The company has notified its distributors and retailers where the product was distributed and has asked that the products be removed from the shelves.

To date no illnesses have been reported from this product.

Consumers who have Liberté Méditerranée Wild BlackBerry Yogourt 6oz should destroy the product and contact Liberté at 1-888-340-9306 x 0 (Monday-Friday 8am-5pm EST) or via email at info@liberte.ca for a full refund.

The company is working cooperatively with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration until the recall is complete. We continue to evaluate the root cause of this problem and are making corrective actions.

We deeply regret the risk that this error has created for those who are allergic to the plum and walnut fruit preparation and the inconvenience that this recall has caused to our customers.

Jalapeno for Muscle Pain
Submitted by drake on Sun 08/09/2009 - 11:41

For neck pain and back pain, rub jalapeno along the infected areas. The jalapeno causes the area to warm, similar to using a product like Ben Gay.

I learned about this by accident after cooking with jalapeno. At the same time, I had some pretty bad pain in the neck and upper back. I cut the jalapeno open and smeared the open jalapeno, seeds and all, on my back and neck. It really did help relieve my muscle pain.


Salt n Pepa:

You are actually right, and now I must revise my recommendation.

I no longer recommend rubbing jalapeno on your skin. It really burns. I don’t even know if it helped me with my muscle aches. When I took a hot shower, it burned even more.

In summary, ignore my advice.

Thanks,

Drake


[My note:

Of course it burns, and it could cause blisters on really tender skin, but it is that burning feeling that caused it to work...

It was burning and waking up the nerve endings/blood vessels and they went into action and relaxed the painful area.

Another method that does not burn, is to use the end of the vacuum cleaner hose and suck up the skin in the pain area.

This will also cause the nerves and blood vessels to contract and start working again.

Works great for headaches and I know of one man who swears that it cured his dead arm, that was dead because of a stroke.

I learned this from Dr. Comer, a Chiropractor who graduated from the Palmer Chiropractor Institute in 1926.

He did all kinds of weird things that worked.
