Eliminating The Danger That Stands On Your Door Step

I once had a young woman living next to me. She told me that the prior  night someone had banged on her door, late at night. So, she felt COMPELLED to open the door! Fortunately, the guy was just odd, rather than dangerous, and just looking for a prior resident. But, it could have turned out bad.
 
The moral of the short story is: Install a peep-hole in your door and use it. Never feel embarassed about not opening the door.
 
If you can't make out who it is, don't open the door.
 
If you hear a knock at your door late at night, the first thing to do is to take a deep breath.
 
Then grab a weapon. Some will say, "Don't do that, they'll use it against you!"
 
That's insane. Someone who would venture into someone's house late at night, knowing full well someone is there (car is a big hint and your actions), has evil intent to begin with.
 
Then, grab your cell phone and carry it with you.
 
Always have backup batteries! And backup of that. Be sure they are in your nightstand by your bed and have batteries in other places, as well.
 
I will give you many other tips, but I don't want to overwhelm you. That will serve little purpose.
 
If the person hovers around, call 911. Always be one step ahead of trouble.

Time Management and Your Core Values

Values are a little mentioned term. However, they inately guide us, know it or not. An example of a value is freedom. Of course, to some degree or another we all aspire to be free, but it is the weight we assign to it versus other values. It is how seriously we take. Some adore freedom so much they would risk dying to maintain it. Give me liberty or give me death. Be free or die.
 
Through trial, error, and quiet contemplation we learn what we learn to prioritize our values. We figure out what we want to do with our life. 
 
As we age, time becomes an ever more valuable entity. With each passing year, the preciousness of 1 year actually goes up. When one is 20 and facing, say, 60 more years of living, 1 year is 1/60th of his remaining time. At 50, however, 1 year is 1/30th.
 
Morever, the QUALITY of life is key. Can one assign as much value to older years? Only to the extent of remaining TIME but not the actually quality. I mean if you were to stay at 30 or so, with bountiless energy and zeal, youthful looks... even if you would live the same quantity of years, life would be much better.

However, despite all the hype about medical advancements, old age is still no picnic.
 
Of course, we can't do much about that, so let's come back to down to reality.
 
It behooves one to spend time wisely. This encompasses what activities you engage in, what work you enter, who you interact with and how, etc.

We're Back With More About The Back

The physical condition merges from a single tumor, which starts in the bone marrow and disseminates into the liver, lymph nodes, spleen, bones, and kidney. Tumors of this nature set up in plasma cells, which manufacture abnormal counts of immunoglobulin. The tumor then triggers activities, such as osteoblastic, which leads to destruction of bones and extends all through the body.

Back Pain and Multiple Myeloma

Back Pain and Multiple Myeloma
 
Some of the common problems that cause back pain merge from musculoskeletal conditions and neurological conditions. However, back pain also arises from arthritis, muscle disorders, etc, including multiple myeloma. Muscle myeloma is abnormalities and proliferation of the plasma cells within the bone marrow. According to etiology aspects, doctors believe that multiple myeloma derives from genetics, environment, and unknown sources.
