The Playful Drug Marijuana Remains A Liability

January 16, 2015 / Bullz-Eye Staff

There are many people in recovery from hard-core addictions who do not care if there is a scientifically provable link between marijuana and stronger drugs.

These are simply addicts who know that marijuana was part of their addiction-oriented lifestyle. They also remember that marijuana frequently includes symptoms of anxiety and paranoia. This lends itself to taking a sedative and an alcoholic beverage is often the sedative that is easiest to reach. So, marijuana and alcohol are not linked from a specific biological cause and effect, but the link is still viable enough for someone facing a life in recovery knows enough to avoid marijuana use if they want to stay clean and sober.

Just as coffee is not biologically linked to smoking a cigarette, those who smoke frequently say they combine the two and that sitting down with a cup of coffee – if they manage to quit smoking – frequently gives them the urge to smoke.

Car Review: 2015 Toyota RAV4 XLE

January 13, 2015 / Bullz-Eye Staff

The Toyota RAV4 was the first compact crossover SUV, debuting over 20 years ago. This popular vehicle is now on its fourth generation in a very crowded and growing segment. We tested the XLE model with the Dynamic Torque Control All-Wheel Drive system.

Over the years, the look of the RAV4 has evolved considerably, as it now sports more of a lower, car-like stance. This sleeker design is becoming more common in this category, and we suspect many buyers will use design as a differentiator in making their decision.

One of the reasons the compact crossover segment is growing has to do with the roominess you get for a smaller vehicle. Like others in this segment, the RAV4 comfortably seats five adults, and we filled up the vehicle several times during our test. It also has plenty of cargo capacity with 38.4 cubic feet behind the rear seats. With the 60/40 split rear seats folded, the space expands to 73.4 cubic feet. This practical feature plus the roominess for passengers in a smaller, affordable vehicle makes the RAV4 and other options in this segment irresistible to many buyers.

For Him and Her: Healthy Ways Couples Can Boost Fertility

January 10, 2015 / Bullz-Eye Staff

You want to have a baby, but the problem is that it’s not like going to the grocery store and popping some cookies into the cart. Isle 3 – babies. If only it were that easy. And, while many women don’t have serious problems getting pregnant, some women do. Having a baby, for some women, is an almost impossible task. Fortunately, there are solutions that are proven and fairly reliable.

Maintain Normal Weight

Maintaining a normal weight is essential for getting pregnant. If you’re overweight, or even slightly underweight, having a baby can be difficult or impossible. Being underweight isn’t as obvious, but it’s a common phenomenon these days due to the skewed perception that “skinny is beautiful.” Some women overdo it, and in the process they’re starving their bodies of the nutrients that are necessary for a normal pregnancy.

Zio Zeigler: An Inspiration for all Aspiring Artists

January 9, 2015 / Bullz-Eye Staff

American artist Zio Zeigler is renowned for many things, but perhaps he is most famous for the painting and large scale outdoor murals that he has completed throughout the U.S. Inspired by the 1990’s graffiti movement in the Bay Area and Central Europe, he is often considered the premier exponent of art that transcends genres and bridges the accessibility of mainstream and cult work. His own output represents just a small fraction of Zio’s contribution to the local community, however, as he has also committed to using his gifts for teaching others and creating a symbiosis through various U.S. regions.

Art has always been considered as a medium that can draw people together, and Zio’s efforts have afforded youngsters a platform through which they can express themselves and build a better life. This means little unless a talented and dedicated artist is willing to collaborate and share his gifts with others, and thankfully Zio has remained a proactive player within multiple local art movements in various regions. He has also succeeded in making art more accessible to the general public, which in turn has helped to inspire others and create the next generation of visual artists.

Zio’s career is celebrated by Dewar’s ongoing Live True campaign, where some of the worlds’ most inspirational figures are recognised for their achievements and the impact that they have had on the lives of others.

Designers & Sunglasses, A Good Match?

January 9, 2015 / Bullz-Eye Staff

Buying the right pair of sunglasses can be a significant challenge. Many buyers make their choice based on style instead of fit. While this may work in the short term, it may not be the best option over the long run. Given the fact that sunglasses are now being worn all year round, selecting a pair which can be worn on numerous occasions is prudent.
