Getting Old Ain't So Bad
Yale University recently completed a long-term study
of those 50 years of age and older, to discover that having a good attitude
about aging adds years to your life. People who strongly disagree with
the statements, "As you age, you are less useful," or "Things
keep getting worse as I get older," outlasted their more negative
peers by a whopping 7 1/2 years. And this happened even when the researcher
accounted for age, sex, income, loneliness, and physical ability. California Grants Site
The Governor's Office for Innovation in Government in
California has created a Web site, "Get Grants," for nonprofit
organizations to use in searching for state grant programs. http://www.iig.ca.gov/projects/GrantsByProgram.shtml. Australian Links
