ANSWERS TO YESTERDAY'S TRIVIA - - - -
--------------

Why were red M&Ms discontinued in the 1970s?

They're back now, but in the mid '70s, red M&Ms were
discontinued due to fears that they contained
Red Dye No. 2, a substance that is carcinogenic
(cancer-causing). The candies never did contain the
dye, but to assuage the fears of the public, the red
M&Ms were simply dropped for awhile. 


Which color M&M do most people prefer?

Surprisingly, it's the brown M&M (perhaps because it
looks most like chocolate). Market research conducted
by the company that makes the candy has determined
that brown is the favorite, so that's what each bag
contains the most of.

with Dr. Rhoberta Shaler
---------------------

You Teach People How to Treat You
by Rhoberta Shaler, PhD


So often we hear people ask the question,
"Why does he/she/they treat me/us so badly?". The
honest answer, in most cases, is "Because you let
him, her or they!"

If that seems too simple an answer, think of it this
way. You make a date for lunch with someone new.
They arrive twenty minutes late, citing traffic, office
hold ups, the weather, their car or their kids. Of
course, things do happen to detain even the best
intentioned person. You accept the apology and
have a lovely lunch. The next time you have lunch
with this person, they are thirty minutes late. Aha,
there may be a pattern developing. What do
you do?

Unless you do not mind this behavior, you then
have the opportunity to teach that person how to
treat you. Good communication skills come into play.
You can say something like, "One of the things I've
found works for me is to be honest with people.
I really enjoy your company and would like to continue
meeting for lunch. I know things come up at the last
minute and sometimes traffic can be horrendous. I'd
like us to agree that either of us can leave if the other
is more than fifteen minutes late? Would that be all
right with you?" This clearly communicates what
you need and want without ascribing blame. It builds
relationship when you make clear agreements with
people. Would it be all right with you if an employee
came to work consistenly one-half hour late? No,
there is an agreement about the starting time, isn't
there? The same is true of our own time.

One of my favorite quotes comes from John Powell.
In his book, The Secret of Staying in Love, he wrote
that "the genius of good communication is to be totally
kind and totally honest at the same time." I repeat this
quote often to remind myself how to approach teaching
people how to treat me. If I do not tell the truth about
what works for me, I cannot expect another person to
honor and respect it. Learning to teach people how
to treat us takes practice.

You may still have folks who have been in your life
for a long time who take advantage of you, treat you
poorly, or are angry, abusive or violent. A habit has
been established and they may like it a lot! Consider
telling them the truth about how their behavior affects
you and what changes would make the relationship
feel more respectful and caring for you. Be both
honest and kind. Be prepared to have to repeat this
information consistently over time. It is sometimes
"inconvenient" for these folks to remember that you
have now stated your preferences. They may not
want to change. Holding these boundaries also requires
attention on your part. Once you have asked for the
change, you must insist on it or consider giving up
the relationship. Both of these tasks take
positive self-esteem and self-confidence.

Relationships worth having are mutually respectful
and responsive. Think about how you might like to
apply these thoughts in your daily life.

THE ROLE OF MULTIVITAMINS
IN DEGENERATIVE CONDITIONS
by Karin Henderson
PART 9 of 10

Send a blank email -
mailto:multivitamins@rr-email.com
(Two studies by AMA)

Can you also see how all of these conditions are treated
for symptoms: not for changed outcomes...for a better
future? Many of you know that I am involved in a website
devoted to Meniere's. The symptoms for these people
are related to balance and hearing. Their symptoms come
and go, but often they get progressively worse after a
period of remission. There is no cure and doctors treat
their symptoms. They are not looking for the possible
restoration of balance and hearing. Consequently, this
would qualify it as a degenerative condition. In some
places it has this classification: in others, it doesn't.
However, we have had tremendous success with people
who decided to try supplementation. But our experience
has shown that not all supplements will produce these
results. Why would that happen? I am guessing, but I
would suspect that the body needs a complete offering
of the required nutrients, and in large enough amounts
(optimal)…or why wouldn't it continue to "borrow" from
another part of the body. I also suspect the supplements
need to be balanced and of good quality. Isn't that what
they AMA stated as one of the discoveries in their review?
Does that also not then give a hint as to what needs to
be IN these supplements?

THE NET'S BEST KEPT SECRET

<><><><>

THE SAGA OF PINEHILL
by Ken Darby

--------------------------------------
Eloise Henry, age 18 when the story began, and
David Wylie, age 20, were selected, by a
stranger in town, to take a dangerous trip, together.
The idea was that each was to take only the clothes
on their back, and go anywhere in the world where
the stranger took them. They were to be left there
to find their own way home. They had no money,
no identification, and no idea where they were.

Upon their safe return there was a million dollars
waiting in their bank account for them. If one did not
make it that money would go to the survivor. If neither
made it the money would go to their families.

The story deals with their adventures along the way
and leads into the only way they could survive. That was
for Eloise to learn higher law and commit her life to
that end. Along the way she learns how to perform
many a miracle.

The story leads to many friends, many adventures
and many places. As you read on, enjoy. It continues . . . . . . .

"But, but, how is it possible to do things just by
thought? I don't understand." said a perplexed
Shing Li.

"How much time in your life have you even thought
about it Shing Li?" asked Susan.

"None. I have never thought about it." she
answered.

'Then this is an entirely new idea to you. This is
the first time you have been introduced to the
idea. Do you think it is right that you instantly
grasp the concept when you are first confronted
with it? These are life changing ideas Shing Li,
and it will likely take a while for you to
understand. Yet it is most worthy of your
attention, would you not say?" asked Susan.

Susan went on, "I was like you, Shing Li. I saw
and I did not believe. I watched it happen for
years before I believed. My neighbors, their whole
family live by higher law, and I used to think,
'Oh! That's just for them. I'll never learn.' But
all the while I was hoping, wishing, thinking
about it. They had such power, such love, and
could help so many. So inside myself I kept
wishing. Then, one day it happened. It is personal
choice for each one of us, Shing Li. You must make
the choice and the decision to committ yourself to
living by higher law. It is no small thing, Shing
Li. It takes perserverence, determination, and
never ending commitment."

"You mean everyone can live by, as you say,
'higher law'?" she asked.

"Yes, Shing Li. All men have within them, the way.
They need only choose and follow. Most will not
make that choice, out of fear, but in this regard
all men are equal. All, at some point in their
lives, are exposed to the concept and ideas. Few
will take up the challenge and commit." said Mae.

And Mae went on, "In fact, Shing Li, do you
remember when you were a child you cut yourself
badly on the leg. No one was around. You were a
long way from home and your leg was bleeding
badly. You did not know what to do. You were
afraid. You sat down and went inside yourself. You
told your mind that you were in control and the
job you gave it was to heal your leg. You had made
up your mind right then and there you were not
going to die, neither were you going to suffer for
a long time. You began to envision your leg as
whole, and it became so. At that point in your
life, Shing Li, you could have continued with your
thinking and changed all things in your life.
Instead you went home and soon the chores of the
household made you forget. You became busy."

"How you know this?" asked Shing Li.

"Am I right?" asked Mae.

"Yes. I was only fourteen then, but I remember it
clearly. Now that you say this, I see how this
works. You are right. Thinking can change things.
It has been so long I had forgotten." she
responded.

"All men are given a glimpse into higher law,
Shing Li. All men have a chance to make the
choice. Now, you are blessed, for you have now a
second opportunity to address the matter." said
Mae.

"What you are saying is that now, in full
knowledge, I must make choices. If I choose to
return to my usual ways, then I shall never attain
the value and benefit of higher law. If I choose
to live by higher law then I must commit myself to
the exclusion of all other things. Am I right?"
Shing Li asked.

"You have it precisely. Commitment to the
exclusion of all other ways will bring you the
results you want." said Mae.

"Think on these things, Shing Li. They will make
your life better in all ways. None of it is
instant, but you shall progress, if you so
choose." commented Susan.

The group walked through the day. Shing Li turned
quiet. She was pondering the matter deeply. Mae
and Susan could see and watch her thoughts and
from time to time offered a little "mental
guidance."

The day passed so quickly they each could hardly
believe. Soon they found a meadow in which to
settle for the evening.
