Dear woodworker,

Let me take a wild guess. You’ve spent hundreds of dollars or even more on your woodworking projects – it took you a LOT longer than you thought, or maybe you even called it quits because you kept getting your measurements wrong.

Or perhaps you’ve:

  Postponed a project because you ran out of ideas? 
  Thought you had every detail figured out, only to find that it still went wrong! 
  Had sticker-shock because of the high prices DIY stores charges for their sheds, decks and self assembly garden buildings? 

If you answered YES to any of the above, I feel your pain! You see, I used to be exactly where you are. That’s why I put up this site: to help folks like yourself get the job done cheaply, fast and without headaches, every time, using my never-before published woodworking plans.

When I built my first deck, almost 20 years ago, I thought I had it all figured out. 4 exhausting months later, I still wasn’t done – I thought I had every detail measured out, only to find that I’ve got it all WRONG. So I decided to find a better way.

For the past 6 years, I’ve spent thousands of hours buying, reading and restructuring woodworking plans. Restructuring, because most plans on the market left me with questions – not answers! Their diagrams are confusing, unclear, or even wrong and they often skip important parts. No wonder woodworking seemed so hard!

Yet all these issues were a blessing in disguise, because it made me create my own woodworking plans gallery: I named it “Woodworking4Home” -  a clear, detailed, step-by-step system that didn’t leave anything to the imagination.

Have you tried and failed before? Me too – many, many times. I know exactly how frustrating that can be. I know how it goes…you’ve checked everything again and again, but somehow you can’t get it right. This is why, with my easy-to-understand plans, you are sure to never steer off course again. 

Hobbyists, professionals and woodworkers alike have benefited
greatly from my woodworking plans. Just take a look at some of these

If you think that video games are for lazy teenagers or adult couch potatoes only, think again. Once you start reaching your ‘golden’ age or if you are way past your 60s and 70s, your heart, body and mind can use the adrenaline rush brought about by the modern gaming devices which are available today.

Why Video Games Aren’t Just For Kids Anymore?

So what exactly are the benefits that grandma and grandpa can get from playing Wii, online games, PlayStation 2 or similar gaming devices? There’s actually a lot more to video gaming than you may actually think.

A good number of studies in the past have shown that playing video games has many positive benefits to senior health. For young people, one of the benefits of playing video games is to sharpen their problem-solving abilities. Video games are even known to improve the skills of a surgeon in the operating table.

Now, to give you an idea about the health benefits that older people will enjoy, take a look at the following list:

1. According to the Psychology and Aging magazine, playing complex video games after receiving training may improve the cognitive functions of seniors. This is one the functions which typically decline with age.

2. Aside from improving their cognitive functions, video games which require seniors to juggle multiple tasks may also improve their ability to perform some other everyday tasks in the ‘real world’.

3. Researches done in the past also indicated that video games such as the ones provided by Nintendo and Wii can be successfully used to doctor seniors with Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease and other illnesses of a psychological or psychosocial nature.

4. Preliminary studies have shown that strategy video games may help older adults in keeping their brains razor sharp.

Since you will be playing with the aid of a joystick, video games can help improve your eye-hand coordination.
To sum it all up, what video games do is keep an aging brain young – which is why they bring forth a multitude of benefits for a senior’s overall health. And with the introduction of Wii fitness-themed games, who says that they can’t enjoy the physical benefits of video games as well?

Top 10 Video Games to Improve Senior Health

After learning about the benefits of using video games to improve senior health, which games should you borrow from your grand kids? Here are the top 10 video games which help improve senior health:

1. Brain Age and Brain Age2

This is a video game developed by Nintendo DS, which has already spawned a sequel: Brain Age2. Both the original and the sequel video games are inspired by the work of Japanese neuroscientist Dr. Ryuta Kawashima.

Basically, what the Brain Age video game will assist you with is stimulating your brain by giving it the workout that it needs with activities like solving simple math problems, currency counting, drawing pictures or unscrambling letters.

As indicated in their website, the activities in the Brain Age2 video game will increase the blood flow to your prefrontal cortex. [Poor Blood Circulation]

2. BrainBashers.com

BrainBashers.com is actually a website which was started in 1997 by Kevin Stone, BSC. The site has a great collection of logic game, brain teasers, riddles, puzzles, games and optical illusions.

The good thing about BrainBashers is that five new puzzles are added every other week, so you will have some new brain-exerciser games to look forward to. [Brain Strengthening Exercises]

The benefit of visiting sites like these is that your mental acuity will be sharpened because of the sheer number of activities that your brain can be engaged in.

3. Wii Golf

If, for one reason or another, you have decided to quit playing golf – you can still have a go at it with the help of a video game like the Nintendo Wii Golf.

You can enjoy it as part of the Wii Sports collection which includes a series of five sports simulations: tennis, baseball, golf, bowling and boxing. So, how exactly will the Wii Golf help seniors have a pretty good workout – with the help of a video game console? [Balance Exercises For Seniors]

The Wii Remote is the key. What it does is mimic the actions performed in real life sports.

Let’s say that you have swung the Wii Remote which you will be using as a golf club, its mechanism will detect how strong or how gentle your golf swing is, and the results will be seen on the screen.

4. Dancing with the Stars

Whether or not you’re a fan of the show that the video game is based on, you will have a blast playing the “Dancing with the Stars” video game. Released in October 2007, the game has PC and online versions, and is also available in Wii, PC, mobile and PlayStation 2 platforms.

If you will get the PlayStation 2 or Wii formats of the game, that is when you will have the best time exercising because it comes with the dance pad. Basically, you will enjoy a physical workout while playing a video game at the same time.

5. Tetris

Whether it’s a game installed on your mobile phone, your computer or a gaming console, the classic blocks game of Tetris will provide a lot of benefits for you as a senior.

When you use the arrow keys on your keyboard to play the game and you’re at an advanced level, your quick thinking skills will be sharpened. Hand-eye coordination and logical thinking are the other benefits that you will get from playing this game.

6. NASCAR 09

Bring out the risk-taking race car driver in you with the NASCAR 09 video game. It comes in the following formats: PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. If you’re not into race car driving, you can try the other driving and flying video games, which will keep your wits razor sharp.

7. Guild Wars

This PC game is available in Windows format only, and is developed by ArenaNet. It’s an episodic series of role-playing games on multiplayer online mode.

Guild Wars is in fact popular with both the younger and the older crowd – so you’ll have plenty of youthfulness to keep you company while the game sharpens your wits at the same time.

8. Pogo.com

If there’s one online video gaming site that is popular with the over-40 crowd, that is none other than Pogo.com. The site is suitable for seniors who are not really into racing, war games or strategic games.

Pogo.com includes a wide array of puzzle games, word games, card games, board games, arcade and sports games that will keep you spending as much hours as your grand kid is spending on the Internet.

9. Scrabble

Another classic game that will keep your brain razor sharp is scrabble. You can even go one step further and use the fun game to connect with your friends and family – no matter which part of the world they live in.

You can have a game with two to four players, and receive notifications on your e-mail if it is your turn to play.

10. Grandparent Games

To cap off our list, there’s the aptly named Grandparent Games which allows seniors to connect with their grandchildren through interactive games. If you want to connect with your children’s kids while exercising your brain at the same time, you get free access to the service for 7 days.

There’s a minimal fee to continue, but if you like playing the games, it is definitely worth it.

There you have it – our top 10 list of the best video games that will allow seniors to exercise their brains, their bodies and improve their eye-hand coordination. Whoever said that video games are a waste of time and are only meant for lazy kids and adults, can never be more wrong.

Many individuals have their hearts and minds in the right place when they consider solar energy. The environmental benefits of solar energy are immense. Solar energy produces no pollution as well as no greenhouse gases. The products last for decades and also create renewable energy. However, solar energy can also benefit individuals financially. The long-term benefits of solar energy are astounding.

First and foremost, solar energy is a protected investment. By paying upfront for installation, you will save yourself from rates of inflation as the years go by. Average warranties on solar energy panels are around 25 years. Many solar panels are still working well after 40 to 80 years. Just imagine that during this time you are saving 75%-100% of your energy costs, or even selling energy back to the local power company. Of course, minor maintenance costs may occur, but this is minimal in comparison to paying regular energy bills or in comparison to paying on inflation.

The government pays rebates and tax credits to those who generate their own solar power. Depending on where you live, federal government and local government rebates can cover to 70% of the total cost of the system. Government incentives combined with a decrease in solar equipment prices make solar energy a good and easy investment decision.

Solar energy provides long-term reliability and low maintenance costs. Originally, photovoltaic cells were developed for use in space. Because of this initial design, solar cells were made to last for extensive periods of time with little to no maintenance costs. Once installed, solar power systems will quietly last a minimum of two decades, especially if they don’t use batteries for storage.

It is necessary to have regular maintenance which includes removing debris such as dirt, dust, smog, and gravel, as well as making certain that tree branches do not interfere with the sun’s rays. During winter months it is imperative to remove snow which will block all of the sun’s rays which give the solar panels energy. This can be difficult, especially if the solar panels are on a slanted or steep roof.

Becoming green will eliminate major uses of fossil fuels and will also allow you to use renewable energy. This is an investment in your future as well as in generations to come. It will reduce dependence on foreign energy and will lower every individual’s part in global warming, providing safety and health for many people.

At EnviroCitizen.org, we support and encourage the use of alternative energy sources.  Solar energy is just one of many ideas you may want to look into.  Depending on your situation, you may want to explore the benefits of wind energy, solar thermal energy and  geothermal energy, amongst others.  We all have collective as well as individual choices available to us regarding how sustainable and renewable our energy sources are.  If we can make a choice that will benefit the environment as well as our financial situation then it is really a win-win situation.  The short- and long-term positive effects on the earth’s environment, combined with the medium- and long-term positive effects to our pocketbooks and wallets certainly make alternative energy worth investigating and implementing.

What lessons are included when taking electric guitar course?

I’m a self -taught accoustic & electric guitar player. Now my goal is to really improve my skills in picking & fingersyle in playing electric guitar. Meaning, I want to be really serious in playing, so in the future I can perform for a band.
But I need to know what sort of guitar course is good such that by taking the classes, I can continue to improve my known skills instead of starting from the beginning again like all the strummings etc.
Will it include learning about the scales?

Thanks a lot.

Answer
I would recommend lessons but not just to learn how to pick or fingerstyle but for the many other things that are involved.

No a good teacher wont make you go back to the beginning , he should work with you to figure out what you know and don’t know and will taylor your lessons to fit you.

Lessons should include all things music, From music theory to technique. He will watch you play and look for bad habits that you may not notice and help you to correct them.

Yes it should include learning about scales. That is part of the boring stuff called music theory. It will include how scales relate to chords and how to build chords from scales. How to know a minor chord from a major, etc, etc, etc, etc and allot more. this is all music theory

The most efficient way in the present day is to handle the flora and fauna  is with the DIY renewable energy. It is the greatest solution when supply cannot keep tempo with the requirement.

Fossil fuel is the thorough requirement for our routine life. We cannot think about our being without them. It is the heart and soul of today’s economy. Since these are now-renewable (whose resources are getting lesser by the day) it is very crucial for us to efficiently look out other alternative sources of energy. Also today’s demands of power have surged up so greatly that DIY Renewable energy becomes the best solution to improve the current situation. Renewable energy brings the energy from nature. Some of the sources include solar (from the sun), wind, biomass (from plant and animal waste), and geo thermal (heat from under the surface of the earth). Also called “Earth Energy”, these sources of energy are replenish able and hence always available!!

What is the reason behind our attempts to make DIY renewable energy? The answer to this question is that it shrinks the time required to harness outside energy. It is cheap.  DIY renewable energy is simple to create and safe to function. DIY renewable energy is something that can be replenished. It is available everywhere. Unlike fossil fuels which run a risk of depletion, this source of energy is available in abundance. DIY renewable energy does not create waste and hence there are no green house gases produced. DIY renewable energy improves the quality of life around us. It is non polluting and hence healthy! DIY renewable energy also improves energy efficiency. Hence it saves energy. Last but not the least, DIY renewable is cheap and will help us in save money from skyrocketing power bills.

The DIY renewable energy has many uses. Solar panels for providing  electric supply is a big achievement and wind turbines are also used a home. Solar panel can easily be manufactured and has low maintenance cost. It is a non-pollutant in terms of waste produced and the noise generated. That’s a wonder!  Solar panel saves energy and money on electricity bills efficiently. Not only can they light our homes, they can be used to generate power for Industrial units, agricultural units and for lighting remote units like the lighthouses. A simple wind turbine could use the power of wind to harness energy for home needs.

The global warming has stressed that alternate source of energy needs to be harnessed to save our lives. DIY can bring about a revolution by creating clean energy. Let us show our commitment to mother earth by investing on DIY renewable energy for our daily energy needs and protect it for our future generations.
