The moral of today’s boomer chick guest post (www.overthehillchick.blogspot.com) is: If you’re waiting for someone to say yes to you for whatever it is, at this age look around and see if, instead, you can say yes to yourself!

According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) I’m a “Baby Boomer” due to the fact I was born Downunder during the years 1946 to 1964; and there I was thinking I was just “a chip off the old block”. Following closely on the heels of the ABS, are the so-called generation experts who claim that “Baby Boomers” are cashed up, getting botox, runni

Touching on the subject of baby boomers again, I got this rather humorous e-mail from a high school classmate. As I read it, I become more aware that yeah!, the things written here are true. Have a read.First, some of us survived being born to mothers who smokedand/or drank while they carried us. (sioktong ang inumin)They took aspirin, ate blue cheese dressing, fish from a can(brand : ligo ), and
Going through an interview session with the younger generation can certainly present an entirely different set of problems for baby boomers. However, there’s no need for older job seekers to get disheartened so easily. In addition to older employees having more job experience, there is also the Federal Age Discrimination in Employment Act.
According to the [...]
Mark Feinsand/New York Daily News (aka The Daily Roger):David Wells may want to pitch for the Yankees, but at this point, the Bombers don't appear to have much interest in bringing the aging lefthander back to the Bronx.Wells, who turns 45 on May 20, is hoping to pitch a shortened season, and a return to New York would clearly be his first preference. Gregg Clifton, Wells' agent, hasn't been in touch with the Yankees yet, but he has heard through different channels that Hank Steinbrenner may be interested in a pinstriped return for Wells. "We'll wait and see what happens over the weekend," Clifton said. "I'm sure the Yankees want to see what they can do in-house first." Steinbrenner didn't return a phone call yesterday, but a source with knowledge of the team's thinking said the Yankees ar
Mike Puma of the NY Post has comments from David Wells saying he would love to come back to the Yankees and Hank Steinbrenner didn’t rule it out of the question. It really depends on how Kei Igawa, Darrell Rasner and Ian Kennedy if he gets another chance (which he will if Igawa or Rasner are [...]
I don't listen to the show, but I occasionally listen to their podcasted audio. The WFAN morning crew had a great interview with New York Gov. David Paterson, who is one of the best politicians to hear interviewed anywhere in the country. I hope you enjoy this segment as much as I did.

From James J. Heckman and Paul A. LaFontaine's study on high school graduation rates:
After adjusting for multiple sources of bias and differences in sample construction, we establish that (1) the U.S. high school graduation rate peaked at around 80 percent in the late 1960s and then declined by 4-5 percentage points; (2) the actual high school graduation rate is substantially lower than the 88...

We can say without doubt that intimate friendships have always been important for women. But have you noticed that they have become even more so that you faced with the transition of children who grow up and parents growing older? Findings from the MacArthur Foundation a recent study shows that the emotional security and social support these relationships for women is a survival strategy for them in adversity. In fact, friendship is one of the keys to a long and happy life.A landmark UCLA study suggests that women respond to stress brains with chemicals that cause us to maintain friendships with other women. Until this study was published, scientists generally believed that stress causes hormonal cascade that prepare the body to remain in either fight or to flee. Now they believe that wome
Boomer lit is fiction aimed at readers, women mostly, in their 40s, 50s, and 60’s. The stories involve conflicts that affect Boomers-aging parents, career woes, retirement, health issues, where-the-hell-did-my-life-go, and good old-fashioned loneliness. The best of boomer lit involves a strong dose of self-assessment.

First some insight from wikipedia ‘the Van Allen Radiation Belt is a torus of energetic charged particles (plasma) around Earth, held in place by Earth's magnetic field’. Ok, glad that’s out of the way so on with the music. Pittsburgh's The Van Allen Belt are a seriously interesting proposition, a gargantuan 4-piece with the amalgamated sound of the Polyphonic Spree/Go-Team in their sights. Not only do they somehow manage to recreate what was prevalent when studio’s and big name producers actually affected how a hit record sounded but they also come fitted with a conscience unbowed by conventional thinking (see ‘Slanted To The Left’). The result is a refreshing epic and as much as it sometimes sounds retro I can’t escape the feeling that the Van Allen Belt are somehow going t

In the real estate industry, there has been much talk and interest in the Baby Boomers that are now coming to retirement age. The Baby Boomers are approximately 78 million people that were born from 1946 to 1964. To put the Baby Boomers in perspective one only needs to look at the basic statistics that illustrate the immense size and power of this demographic. For instance, approximately 7,918 people in the US turned 60 each day in 2006.
The Bureau of the Census estimates that there will be twice as many persons age 65 or older in 2030 as there are today: 69 million (20 percent of the population) versus 34 million (13 percent of the population). Likewise, the Bureau’s population projection, from its middle series, shows 18 million persons age 85 or older in 2050 (4 1/2 percent of the U.S. population); now, there are less than 4 million persons in that age group (1 1/2 percent of the U.S. population).

Life continues ever faster. Obviously we aren’t the same people we were in high school, when we had everything to learn, wide-eyed, and our life was in front of us. At this chronological phase, we come prepackaged, we are in the middle of a journey, and have a great story, which includes family, wisdom, and a keen intuition, a list of preferences and what we don’t want.
Perhaps, it should go without saying; our youth lives inside us. We still feel, 16 or 23, on the inside, I do. Perhaps, we live with someone and are blessed to have the ideal relationship or we thought it would be for life and something changed the outcome. We watch our partner change ever so gradually, didn’t really notice the changes, as we changed too, and we observed change in ways we found to be intolerable.

It's clear that Americans have developed an addiction to food with sinus-clearing pizzazz. Why is hot so hot? The conventional explanation is that the nation has an increasingly adventurous palate.But some food scientists and market researchers think there is a more surprising reason for the broad nationwide shift toward bolder flavors: The baby boomers, that huge, youth-chasing, all-important demographic, are getting old. As they age, they are losing their ability to taste - and turning to spicier, higher-flavor foods to overcome their dulled senses.

So, it's in a strip-mall, but this was a lot better then expected. They actually managed to pull off having a full BBQ set-up (something I think would be hard to do in a strip mall...go figure).

Baby Boomers, the "Born to be Wild" generation, are living nearly twice as long as previous generations and they are remaining active. As Boomers are remaining active - they are dealing with the pain from an active lifestyle.It is impossible to underestimate the importance of being Boomer. Baby Boomers -- people born between the years 1946 and 1964 -- represent nearly 29 percent of the population in the United States. The number of baby boomers in America is counted at 78.2 million, and these nearly 80 million baby boomers are reaching their late fifties. Approximately 7,900 Americans turn 60 each day. That's about 330 every hour, or more than 4 million a year. The significance of these numbers is that within 20 years one in five Americans will be older than 65. What are some of the common causes of pain in those over 50?Osteoporosis - is a condition affecting both men and women in which the bones thin, become porous and brittle, and fracture easily. As we get older, joints and bony c
Anybody know what the average age of a blogger is? How about what percentage of bloggers are still in college, less than 24, or have kids? I honestly don't know what the figures are for those questions, if you have them, let me know! Today, lets talk about what I recently read, regarding seniors and blogging. More and more seniors, individuals over 65, have joined the blogging ranks and have begun detailing their life stories and daily occurrences. This is a wonderful thing! The ability to self-publish [for FREE mind you] is an extraordinary opportunity. What better way to leave records of yourselves? Now that we have this powerful tool, historical and personal events are far easier to a) document, b) discuss, and c) share with the world. Companies devoted to building websites for engaged, couples, for example, allow family members to keep up on the daily happenings leading up to the wedding in real time. Young people in the
According to Matthew Flamm of NewYorkBusiness.com, local sports radio station WFAN has chosen former Jets QB Boomer Esiason to replace Don Imus in the mornings on their station. The station also hired veteran radio personality Craig Carton, who has hosted the Jersey Guys morning drive program on WKXW-FM in Trenton, N.J. for the last five years.
The show’s name will be Boomer and Carton in the Morning and it will debut on September 4th, running from 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. for the morning commute.
…This is a good move for Jets fans, as we will likely see more Jets talk in the morning now and possibly a few more interviews with people within the Jets organization on the FAN, now that we have Boomer here. Boomer did have a tryout with the station for a week or so in late April and early May, where he worked with Chris Collinsworth in the mornings and interviewed Jets general manager Mike Tannenbaum during that time…
The public memorial service for Bill Walsh will be held this Friday at Monster Park, and the master of ceremonies will be none other than Chris Berman. That’s right, on Friday Bill “Don’t call me Steve” Walsh could…go…all…the…way…to heaven. He will be back, back, back, back, gone from this earth. You’re with me pine.
All joking aside, Berman does have a very good serious side and he should do a nice job overseeing a somber event such as this. He’s also one of the few currently renowned sports personalities who was actually around during Walsh’s heyday. The ceremony will include and NFL Films video tribute, and former 49ers Joe Montana, Steve Young, Roger Craig, Jerry Rice, and Roger Craig are scheduled to attend. Dan Snyder isn’t involved, and so parking and admission are free.
San Diego Padres starter David Wells is truly the "Peter Pan" of Baseball, he'll never grow up. And that mindset brings good and bad of course to the table. The veteran southpaw is still pitching in the Majors at age 44, although not as effectively as in his prime as he sported a 4-5 record with a 4.31 ERA at the break. But nobody will ever doubt his grit or competitiveness while on the mound. Unfortunately he is still prone to adolescent type tantrums such as the one he on Saturday during the fourth inning of San Diego's eventual 8-5 win over the Atlanta Braves. Boomer gave up a two run round tripper to Braves outfielder Jeff Francoeur, and then started to question the calls by the home plate umpire Ed Hickox. The umpire ejected Wells from the game, and Boomer looked like he was ready to get into a brawl in an Oakland motorcycle bar. It took Padres skipper Bud Black, and two coaches to restrain him from going after Hickox. Thursday, MLB Vice President handed down a seven game suspen
According to RadioInk.com, former Jets Quarterback Boomer Esiason will replace Don Imus in the mornings on Sports Radio 66, WFAN in New York.
Boomer was actually the first tryout for WFAN in the mornings to replace Imus. In his first few days, right after the NFL Draft, Boomer interviewed Jets general manager Mike Tannenbaum on the air.
WFAN has used many different options in the morning while they looked for a permanent replacement.
…I for one am going to like this move. With a former Jets QB in the mornings, we might see some more interviews with Jets players and personnel…
Brand : BoomerCompany: Wrigley'sAgency : GreyBrand Count : 241Boomer is a pure kids brand. When most of the chewing gum marketers are spending heavily on the adult segment with sugarfree variants and outlandish ad budgets and creatives, Boomer followed the kids.I feel that Boomer now takes the position of BIGFUN which was the best selling chewing gum during my school days. BigFun is currently not in the market.Boomer was launched in India in 1995 by Joyco-which is a confectionery major from Spain.Boomer actually revived the chewing gum market in India and in 2000 became the single largest brand in the segment with a market share of over 40%. But later the company lost out to Perfetti which redefined the entire confectionery market. In 2005 Joyco was taken over by Wrigley's .

First, we survived being born to mothers who smoked and/or drank while they were pregnant. They took aspirin, ate blue cheese dressing, tuna from a can, and didn't get tested for diabetes. Then after that trauma, we were put to sleep on our tummies in baby cribs covered with bright colored lead-based paints. We had no childproof lids on medicine bottles, doors or cabinets and when we rode our bikes, we had no helmets, not to mention, the risks we took hitchhiking. As infants & children, we would ride in cars with no car seats, booster seats, seat belts or air bags. Riding in the back of a pick up on a warm day was always a special treat.We drank water from the garden hose and NOT from a bottle. We shared one soft drink with four friends, from one bottle and no one actually died from this. We ate cupcakes, white bread and real butter and drank koolade made with sugar, but we weren't overweight because we were always outside playing.We would leave home in the morning and play all day

June 1 marks the 40th anniversary of the U.K. release of the Beatles' Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. It is a singular statement of ambition and talent, an astounding success and the proof everyone needed to go forward with artistic aspirations in rock and roll. What it's not is the perfect encapsulation of American hippie counterculture, contrary to what the nostalgic baby boomers would have you believe.
Every second a baby boomer turns sixty.And almost every morning a baby boomer finds, reflected in the mirror, a face with one wrinkle more.At least the unlucky ones, the ones who do not have a friendly mirror or a bad lit bathroom.The normal ones I mean. The ones who see the truth reflected there, the first sight in the morning.The sight that decides how the day is going to be.A happy, smiling one, or a terrible sad and upsetting one, when you realize you're aging and your youth is running away, leaving behind a person still young in his heart, but terribly old in his look.Who is going to accept that?You want to still feel young and look young, or at least look the best you can.And that is not vanity, it is just being human.Once people had just one choice: to accept it, and regret, and miss the past.Now a day a fifty year old person can look much better than a twenty years old.Because technology has come to our rescue and we can, if not delete all, at least "help" our old body to look
