NEW YORK, NY, March 19, 2014 (Press-News.org) Fiftyisthenewfifty.com encourages middle-agers to come out of hibernation this week by checking out their new "Spring into Spring" feature series and fabulous giveaways in celebration of the warm weather ahead.
"We are doing a 'Spring into Spring' feature series because we need to remind everyone that, after this horrendous winter, better times are coming! Spring is a time for renewal and rebirth, which is what we strive for in middle age," says Beth Portolese, founder of Fifty is the New Fifty.
Since its launch last year, Fiftyisthenewfifty.com has become known for offering witty and wise fifty-friendly articles on lifestyle, beauty, and health and wellness issues as well as middle age musings on other interesting topics. From March 19 through the 21st, the website's focus will be centered on springtime, with articles related to exercising, fashion, and even cleaning.
Those looking to drop extra pounds gained over the holiday season won't want to miss fitness trainer Eraldo Maglara's article titled 5 Simple Exercises to Help You Stay in Shape. "During the long cold winter, we see people decrease their exercise activity level and that could increase their body weight anywhere from 5 lbs to 10 lbs," Maglara says, adding, "Spring is around the corner, and it's time to get in shape!"
Spring is also a great time to update your wardrobe to reflect the new styles of the season. In her article Updating Your Closet with Touches of Spring, Melissa Angert, of All Things Chic, walks readers through the process of transiting their wardrobe from winter to spring. She also offers a few key pieces of advice on how to keep up with the latest trends while sticking to a budget.
To cap off the series, DIYFrugal.com blogger Sarah Peppel offers tips on how to get your home looking better than ever in her article 5 Steps to Energize Early Spring Cleaning. "Now that it's getting warm enough to open doors and windows, it's time to leap into action and shake, rattle, and roll all those pesky dust bunnies out of the house for a fresh clean start," Peppel says.
Portolese is also excited to announce Fifty is the New Fifty's "Spring into Spring" Giveaway. The winner will receive a $100 Amazon.com gift card along with an Objects with Purpose Oscar Swag Pack worth $70. The contest begins on March 18 and closes March 21.

Study finds even buzzed driving increases risk of auto accident
2014-03-19
In New Jersey and across the country, the legal limit for getting behind the wheel after consuming alcohol is a blood alcohol concentration of 0.08 percent. This limit has led many motorists to assume they are capable of operating a vehicle safely so long as their BAC is under the legal limit. According to a recent study, however, that assumption may not be accurate.
New research suggests that even motorists who consume small quantities of alcohol, resulting in BACs below the legal limit, present a higher risk of being involved in deadly auto accidents than those who ...
