One that comes to mind is sports nutrition. I have been watching the company GNC and Vitamin Shoppe and their stocks have been doing well because of Boomers interest. What other stocks might do well? (businesses, categories, etc?). I suppose medical services is an obvious one. But I am looking for niche ideas since I don’t know how to get my head around medical services which is such a large industry.

It is a cult founded on a number of dogmatic beliefs that have no basis in reality. These are people who believe that the inflection point of the Laffer Curve is somewhere in the low single digits, and that cutting taxes to insanely low levels will magically lead to revenue increases. These are people who believe that government itself is basically unnecessary but for a private property protection scheme, and that the unfettered market will provide all that society needs, and will dole out the appropriate price for all goods, wages and services with zero inflation through the magic of the market. These are people who believe it is impossible for humans to affect the climate, and that it is better for humans to attempt to magically adapt somehow to a much hotter world than to do anything to even curb the behaviors that might be making it hotter. These are people who believe that the proper way to punish corporate evildoers is to not punish them at all, because people will simply stop purchasing from corporations that poison their water and air and crash their economies–because the average consumer presumably has the secret market-given wisdom, and magic powers necessary to make financial choices to punish Koch Industries and Goldman Sachs if necessary.

I’m interested in bringing a club to my school in which I would help raise and donate money to the cause of providing safe drinking water to developing areas of the world. I’ve become aware of how crucial to life it is to have clean water by how many people simply don’t have it, the deaths it causes and the increase in quality of life it can bring to the people that it would go to. I want to know if anyone is aware of an established, supported organization that is dedicated to bringing clean drinking water to impoverished places that I could affiliate my club with. Thanks:)

Does a patient care tech certifying school have to be affiliated with the National Healthcare Assoc. in NYC in order for student to qualify to take the NHA Patient care tech exam? what requirements do schools offering PCT training need in order for the students to qualify to take the certifying exam?
