Viewpoints Industry TV and How to Stay Cool This Summer


It current weather conditions are telling, this summer promises to be a scorcher across the country. Viewpoints Industry TV shares suggestions on how to stay cool this summer.

Sometimes, just looking at the morning weather forecast is all we need to know that it is going to be another sweltering day. Fortunately, there are ways to stay cool when the mercury keeps going up and up.

Go to the movies for the matinee. Enjoy someone else’s air conditioning and see a movie while there. There is an added bonus that this screening is usually less expensive than the evening screenings. Double coolness.

Take a cool shower and stand under a ceiling fan to cool off and dry. Please be sure the curtains or blinds are closed when doing so.

Put pillowcases in the freezer a little bit before going bed. It is easier to get to sleep when there is something cool under the head.

Viewpoints Industry suggests to eat to for the heat. Make and enjoy cool meals like fun salads, cold pasta dishes and refreshing beverages like cherry lemonade. Drink plenty of water too. Staying hydrated is a great way to cool off.


Finally, do as they do in the South – put a spoon or knife in the freezer. Take it out after an hour or so and press is on pulse points like the neck and wrists. Stay cool and refreshed this summer, readers!

Viewpoints Industry Reveals Why Corporate Volunteerism is Important



In 2015, the Millennial Generation will make up the bulk of the working population. While most people think this generation is all about themselves, many of them donate time and money to charitable organizations close to their hearts. If businesses want to hire these new workers, they must step up their corporate volunteerism practices. Viewpoints Industry explains.

Giving back to the community or world is a quality many workers have and some participate in. But when the company they work for joins the cause, the benefits are plentiful. Employees feel more loyal to their employers and will hesitate to jump ship. Employers gain a better standing in their communities and maybe even a boost in respectability. Lower employee turnover is another benefit for companies. Workers are more likely to stay with their job during downtimes, according to Katherine Smith, Executive Director of the Center for Corporate Citizenship at Boston College.


Viewpoints Industry TV gives employees two paid volunteer days off per year. The charitable groups which benefited from them ran the gamut from clean water initiatives to sending needed items to wounded service members in an overseas hospital. The staffers reported feeling great about their “give back time” and the producers gained added loyalty from those who took advantage of the volunteer program. Corporate volunteerism is important for many reasons: it allows employees to follow their hearts, employers benefit from loyal and more productive workers, and the organization receives needed man power or essential items. This is a win-win-win for all.

Viewpoints Industry on Ultimate Travel Destinations





Where do you want to go today? This open-ended question can be asked in many settings. Viewpoints Industry shares what it means when thinking about ultimate travel destinations.

Vacations and holidays are for unwinding from work and daily stresses. Travel is often considered when the time is close to taking off from the daily grind. So, where do you want to go? Across to state, the country or across the world?

Ultimate travel is anywhere you make it happen. It can be to a wild animal refuge which is a few hours away or it can be to a wildlife sanctuary on the other side of the world. Take some time to find out where you want to go, how much you have to spend and how much time you have. Make a list of everything needed for the journey from airfare to passport fees. Check them off when you have them. Save every cent. Pack snacks for travel and pack instant beverages such as coffee and water flavoring to keep hydrated and awake. It’s a good idea to stash some small breakfast and lunch items in luggage to have when hungry. Plus, it can save money.

Viewpoints Industry TV suggests closing your eyes and imaging someplace awesome to visit. There are so many great places to visit. Ultimate travel is really about where YOU want to go. Even if it’s in your own backyard.

Viewpoints Industry TV on the Best Cities for Single Retirees


Tired of seeing all the ads of happily married retirees on the TV? We are, so we sought out the best cities for single retired people – and realized most of them are in our general area.

The highest number of unmarried retirees are in the Miami and New Orleans areas, where half of the residents are single, age 60 and up. Viewpoints Industry TV also learns that New Orleans has a somewhat large percentage of widows and widowers, while Miami has more who have never been married. Both of these cities offer an abundance of activities from the arts to professional sports. Both have excellent public transportation systems and great healthcare.  In cities like Albany and Cleveland, there are more single retired women than men.

1.Miami 
2. New Orleans 
3. Jackson, Miss. 
4. Memphis, Tenn. 
5. New York 
6. Cleveland
7. Albany, N.Y. 
8. Las Vegas 
9. Buffalo, N.Y. 
10. Los Angeles

Viewpoints Industry learns that many of these cities provide opportunities to continue education. The key to having a great retirement is to keep busy, be healthy and maintain social relationships. All of the above cities give its older residents the ability to do all of that. This is why they all made the top ten.
