When did the US first decide to store gold at Fort Knox?

Besides gold, has anything else of value been stored at Fort
Knox?

ANSWERS TO YESTERDAY'S TRIVIA - - - -

--------------

What's the difference between "flora" and "fauna"?

"Flora" are plants, while "fauna" are animals. Both words
are singular and refer to ALL the plants or ALL the animals
of a particular place or period of time.

Are America's gold reserves still stored at Fort Knox?

Yes. Fort Knox still houses the largest portion of the
United States' gold reserve. The depository is located
adjacent to a military installation and is further guarded
by US Treasury Department officials. Fort Knox is pretty
well protected. The vault itself is concrete and steel (no
cutting through this baby!) The vault door is between twenty
and thirty TONS and is rarely opened. It's not easy to open
the door, either. It takes several people dialing in
separate combinations known only to them. The depository is
further protected by sophisticated security and defense
systems and the whole fortress has a separate emergency
power plant and water system.

OPTIMIZE LIFE NOW™ ... with Dr. Rhoberta Shaler

------------------------------------

Just See It!

How is your creative imagination? Can you see things in
your mind's eye and make them "real" to your brain, nervous
system and senses? This is an excellent facility to develop
further. You can use this in your goal achievement process.

Here's an important fact: Your nervous system cannot tell
the difference between an real and an imagined event. That
is why your body goes through the same distress each time
you re-tell the story of a frightening or sad event. It may
not be at the same level of distress the event but the
signals to the body will be the same. Of course, this is
also true of the positive messages and stories you tell
yourself and others.

How can you use this information to your highest good? You
can use the operation of this unconscious creative mechanism
by calling up, capturing and evoking the feeling of success.
You can envision your goals achieved and how you will feel
when that is accomplished. You can see yourself enjoying
the benefits. You can feel the exhilaration and relief in
your body. You can use the natural workings of your mind to
accomplish your goals.

Take the time to fully see, hear, feel, touch, taste and
smell the things you want in life. Just sit with your eyes
closed and imagine all the "sense-ations" that will
accompany your success. Get fully into it. It's simple and
it works!

Keep It in MIND!

Stress And How It Affects Your Physical Body
A Few Ideas To Enhance Your Fitness Level.
PART 7 of 9

This really happened to a friend of mine and she couldn't talk
about it for a long time, as anyone she should have been
telling, would harm the "friend". I'll call her Lori. She was
and is a beautiful gal: gifted as a child and very talented. And
now she is also very beautiful to look at, and of course very
talented. When she was in her early teens, Lori and her brother
were invited out by a family friend to have a ride in his new
car. She had to sit on the console, as this was a "two-seater".
Her brother was totally distracted by the blaring stereo.
Several times Lori felt this man's hand go up her skirt and rub
her leg. She would push his hand away and glare at him.
Eventually she was able to get away. Her brother was a little
suspicious but she didn't say much and he didn't ask. Over the
next many years leading into Lori's adult life, this family
friend continued to pursue her, in spite of all her rejections.
Eventually she was caught in a situation where she had to enlist
the help of a neighbour who ran to protect her. My point here is
that Lori had set her boundaries and had made her wishes known
very definitely. Yet persistently someone tried to override
them. She was successful, but the scars remain. And now her
stress is showing in other ways. But isn't this a very familiar
story? Isn't it sad that we have to be so watchful.

Once you consciously choose your boundaries you don't need to
announce them to everyone. But you will feel much more powerful.
In Lori's case, she was still a child when the first choices had
to be made. And all through her teens, she could have told
someone, but she also knew her family would be very harsh on
this "friend". So in protecting him, she violated her own
boundaries. But now she needs to be reminded and rewarded for
sticking up for herself at great emotional cost. She was
courageous then and she is still that same person today. It's
strange how people wake up to acknowledging this power once
someone brings it to their attention. They need to be given
personal examples and ways of expanding it, but one they get it,
they really "get it"! Once they feel consciously good about
their goals and futures, and recognize their abilities and
uniqueness, its' quite amazing to see them grow. We all have
this power, but the sad part is that we don't use it or even
know it's available as a choice. This is where recognizing your
uniqueness is brought into play. Use it and wonderful things
happen. I wish this recognition for everyone!

PERCEPTIONS . . . by Ken Darby

-----------------------DISCLAIMER

Some around me think I am an opinionated old goat.
Whether that be true or not I will sometimes, in this column,
talk about things people don't like to talk about - or don't want
out in the open. Take it all with a grain of salt.

Do your own thinking, and don't accept the things I say as
gospel. They are only mental meanderings from a simple soul.

These Gadgets Are Blinding

Goodness a whole bunch happening today.

Bush decides to hell with it we’ll drill for oil in Alaska’s
Bristol Bay. I guess it’s so remote he figures who cares
about the environment up there anyway. No one ever sees it.

That’s about par for the course. There is always some reason
to do something, regardless of consequences.

I see Apple, today, introduced a new cell phone. This one
does it all. It is being held out as something that could do
to the cell phone business what iPod did to the music
industry. It is at least five years ahead of its time.
Apple, industry analysts and investors expect Apple will do
real well with this one.

Apparently they can now tell from blood tests whether you
are about to have a heart attack. Wow, science is sure
getting sophisticated.

Between the gadgets Apple turns out and the gadgets made
available to modern medicine it seems we are a gadget
plagued society.

Oh well! I guess any tricks and toys to keep people from
seeing what climate change is doing. These gadgets are
blinding.

WHY DO WE SAY IT?


Cad. Why do we call a vulgar person a "cad"?

Because a page boy was once called a "cadet". For this
reason the public school boys of England called a person who
waited on them a "cadet" which they shortened to "cad".
Since these "cads" were less educated than the schoolboys,
they were presumed to be vulgar persons devoid of the finer
instincts. So, in time, any person who possessed these
attributes was called a "cad".

HA! HA! HA!

A New Father

One night a wife found her husband standing
over their newborn baby's crib. 

Silently she watched him. As he stood looking down at the
sleeping infant, she saw on his face a mixture of emotions:
disbelief, doubt, delight, amazement, enchantment,
skepticism.

Touched by this unusual display and the deep emotions it
aroused, with eyes glistening she slipped her arms around
her husband.

"A penny for your thoughts," she whispered in his ear.

"It's amazing!" he replied.  "I just can't see how anybody
can make a crib like that for only $46.50!"
