8 Healthy Reasons to Eat CucumberCucumbers are the 4th most widely cultivated vegetable on the planet, which boasts a great number of health benefits. They are rarely mentioned as a superfood, however, they are one of the best and healthiest foods to add to your eating plan. You can use cucumbers in your salads, smoothies, and some other healthy meals. Take a look at the list of 8 healthy reasons to eat cucumbers more often.
1. Control blood pressure
One of the biggest reasons to add cucumbers to your diet is because they help control your blood pressure. Cucumbers are high in water, which helps hydrate your blood vessels. They are also rich in calcium and potassium that can help you reduce blood pressure. For this purpose, it’s recommended to drink cucumber juice in combination with beets, carrots, garlic and lemon.

The Prostate Diet for Prostate CancerEvery time you pick up a fork, put food on to your plate, order at a restaurant, or consume any drink, you are making a choice to either be good to your prostate or not, especially if you are concerned about your diet for prostate cancer. And if you have had treatment for prostate cancer you should be even more concerned about your diet to prevent prostate cancer. www.factoryofknowledge.wordpress.com
POETRY: GLIMPSE OF LOVEOh! My sweet lily.
Like saffron of hanging forest,
In flames of love, even rivers never wash away
The bond from skin to skin. Can I place
As seal upon my heart?
The unending desire of your loins
From pigeon holes of burning smells, we
Stick to glue, like watering dish and
Let me take you into the sky, the
Pleiades stars in Taurus constellation
Were the Orion dwells as inner being?
To feel the passion of clothed clouds
Wrapped in thick gloom,
So as to soar like falcons
Under my lotus tree, in poplars of hairy valleys.
When I wipe her tears with lasting kiss
And she pulled away!
By dreams and dreams
Of juicy canals
On my ribbon and
Rose flower bed. www.factoryofknowledge.wordpress.com

BirthingWell, after nearly exactly 15 months my latest book, THE END TIME is about to be birthed. The cover is complete, the blurb and pitch are complete, and I just sent all my material to Chris O'Byrne at Jetlaunch. Chris is the man who formats my manuscript for ever ereader imaginable and places the book on all the sell sites for me. Like my cover artist, Judy Bullard, I've used these same two people for all my ten published books. This gives my titles and format and consistent look. I advise all indie writers to try and do the same.
Look for THE END TIME very soon. I will be launching a huge promotional campaign once it's out.

Hi,long time havent posted but here's my recent posts :The One Release Reminder

Lost in Babylon by Peter Lerangis Review
http://eternalbooks.blogspot.com/2014...
The Beginning: The cause of the Hate (as it had come to be known on both sides of the uneven divide) was irrelevant.
I knew it would be difficult for Dog Blood to match Hater. The second instalment is always difficult. We don't get the excitement of the first novel, the what-the-hell-is-going-on-rush, which was really powerful in Hater, where we really didn't know what the hell was going on. That was amazing. Second instalments can be both brilliant and horrible. Good authors use the second book to explain things, to focus on the characters or to just tell us more awesome stories. Bad authors (very bad!) just use it for filling. Or to earn extra money (bad, bad authors!).
Dog Blood falls into neither category. I didn't feel the same zsa-zsa-zsu as I did in the first one. But it was still freaking thrilling. It's one of those books that swallow you whole - whenever I opened it, I was completely dead to the world. Speaking of dead, this is the first time the word "zombie" found its way into the story:
'We drag ourselves around constantly, looking for unchanged to kill. It's almost like we're feeding off them. When you're killing, you feel alive, like you can do anything, but the rest of the time it's like you're in limbo. Just existing. Not really living, but not dead either …'
'So what are you saying?'
'I'm saying we're like zombies,' I finally admit.
I'm usually not that crazy about the last instalments - you know, the final battle. I don't really care that much about battles, I care more about the descriptions and character developments. But I'm very curious about Them or Us, the last one in this series. Many of the things I expected to be settled in the last book, were already put to a horrifying end in Dog Blood. I'm so excited about the next one, but have to wait a while before I buy it, as there's simply no space left in my to-read-shelf.
PS: Amazing shot of my cat, right? She's usually so sweet ...
