Ferida Wolff's Backyard: A Fantastic Double Rainbow
Ferida Wolff writes: "A rainbow, besides being amazing, is seen as a sign of possibilities. In the midst of life’s storms it is often hard to spot a rainbow, but they tend to appear after the storm and offer hope. A double rainbow is even rarer and a good omen. It is the symbol of hope and encouragement and prosperity. It also provides spiritual encouragement. But whether scientific or spiritual, any rainbow is a joy to see." more »
Brief Remarks on the Economy and Monetary Policy Governor Michelle W. Bowman At the 2023 CEO and Senior Management Summit and Annual Meeting, sponsored by the Kansas Bankers Association, Colorado Springs, Colorado
"... the economy and the labor market have remained strong as the FOMC has tightened monetary policy. Real gross domestic product grew slightly more than 2 percent at an annual rate in the first half of the year, well above many forecasters' expectations. Consumer spending has been robust, and the housing sector appears to be rebounding with accelerating growth in house prices and a pickup in new housing starts. The most recent employment report showed a strong labor market with low unemployment and solid job gains. The pace of job gains has slowed, which is a sign that labor market demand and supply are coming into better balance. But the demand for workers continues to exceed the supply of available job seekers, adding upward pressure on prices." more »

National Institutes of Health: Common Misconceptions About Vitamins and Minerals
"In most cases, whether you need a vitamin or mineral supplement depends on how much you get from the foods and beverages you consume each day. For example, the RDA for calcium is 1,000 milligrams per day for many adults. If you get that much from foods and beverages, you shouldn’t need a calcium supplement unless your health care provider recommends it. There are some exceptions for certain vitamins and minerals. For example, if you could become pregnant, you should get 400 micrograms a day of folic acid from dietary supplements and/or fortified foods in addition to what you get naturally from foods. This helps reduce the risk of serious birth defects, called neural tube defects." more »
