Last Minute Tax Deductions: Give to They Shall Walk and Save a Life.

Last Minute Tax Deductions: Give to They Shall Walk and Save a Life.
It is the the holiday season. Many people have been asked and many agree the best way to show them you care in this economic season we are in is to give to a charity in their honor. Many people who want to give right now can not and would rather you give money to support missionaries, build an orphanage, prevent disease or give the gift of walking.

Test Pilot Journey: Surviving Chronic Pain

Imagine you wake up and when you inhale your first breath of the day you feel like someone was sitting next to your bed with a dozen forks on standby and as you took your first breath of the day they shoved each one of them into your spine. That is how most of my days begin. Sometimes it happens again in the middle of the day and a couple more times before I go to bed.
The first thing that used to come to mind was suicide. "If I were dead I would not be feeling the pain" The second thing that co… Continue

The Inspiration for the LIFESUIT: Starship Troopers, Taking the Fiction out of Science Fiction
By: Monty Reed - 7/10/2009

People ask "How did you get into this kind of work?" My answer is a littel different depending on the situation and the context of our conversation before the question comes up. Basically the answer is the same.

I was an Army Ranger jumping out of perfectly good airplanes and I had a parachute accident. While in the hospital I read a book by Robert Heinlein Starship Trooper… Continue

Test Pilot Journey: Ted Walker Is Getting Ready to Walk with a LIFESUIT After Eleven Years .
Blog by Monty Reed for Ted Walker

Ted was born with CP (Cerebral Palsy) and had trouble walking early on. He started out using a walker just like the ones you would see the elderly use to walk. Ted's mom encouraged him to do as much as he could, even when it was hard. She would say "Your father and I will not be her forever to take care of you so you need to take care of yourself. It is okay to accept h… Continue

Walk Across America to Raise Money for TheyShallWalk.org

A sixty year old man has offered to walk Across America to raise money for www.TheyShallWalk.org He hopes to leave July 2 2009 and will head to New York City, New York. Estimates are that it will take nine months and a few thousand dollars. He is willing to sleep in a tent most nights. I hope there are people who will offer to sponsor him while he is passing through their town. Before he leaves he will need a few items.
Tent
Sleeping bag (Gortex would be prefered)
Walking Shoes
Water
Food Ration… Continue

Hi Monty, It has been some time since we last attended one of Beverly summer picnics. Are you still in Nikken? I am still very committed to Nikken and all their wonderful products and technologies. I am really excited about the exclusive marketing rights Nikken now has to a new all natural bone health product. I have had a 4% overall increase in my bone density and there are no side effects like the Osteoporosis Drugs have. Take care. Hugs, Chloe Ann
