What is the Garden Gnome Liberation Movement?
The Garden Gnome Liberation Movement, or
"Mouvement d'Emancipation de Nains de Jardin," is
an infamous French group that steals garden gnome
statues as a "protest against kitsch." The stolen gnomes
are repainted to look silly (or, let us say, "sillier") and left
in woods or other non-garden areas. The owners are
usually tipped off as to their new location.
How long could a person live without sleeping?
With absolutely no sleep, the average person would be
dead within ten days. You could probably go eleven
days without water and up to a month without food, but
sleep is critical!

TITLE ARTICLE - - -
-----------------
Think!
by Ken Darby
A Churchgoer wrote a letter to the editor of the newspaper
and complained that it made no sense to go to church
every Sunday. "I've gone for 30 years now," he wrote,
"and in that time I have heard something like 3,000
sermons. But for the life of me I can't remember a single
one of them. So I think I'm wasting my time and the
pastors are wasting theirs by giving sermons at all."
This started a real controversy in the "Letters to the
Editor" column, much to the delight of the editor. It
went on for weeks until someone wrote this clincher:
I've been married for 30 years now. In that time my
wife has cooked some 32,000 meals. But for the life
of me, I cannot recall what the menu was for a single
one of those meals. But I do know this: they all nourished
me and gave me the strength I needed to do my work.
If my wife had not given me those meals, I would be
dead today."
No comments were made on the sermon contents
anymore.
I have seen this time and time again. The logic of the
final retort by the man whose wife fed him 32,000
meals appears to be so logical and so associated
that there remains nothing more to be said on the
first subject.
The fact is, folks, the two are not related. They are
apples and oranges. The one speaks of religious
matters while the other speaks of physical, medical
or survival matters.
The one speaks of going to church and listening,
thinking, absorbing. The other, sadly, speaks of a
man who was too lazy to get his own meals or help
out in that regard.
The point here is this. It may be a good thing for you
to go to church. It may not. What it depends on is
what you think about it.
Eating is something about which we have very little
choice. It is well documented that without food we die.
Not going to church has no such effect on a person.
In fact there are many spiritual people who have
never darkened the doorway of organized religion.
Those in organized religion use this kind of argument,
often, to convince the masses of their value. They may
well be valuable, but in my eyes when they use
arguments like this it weakens their position. There is
no relationship between the final letter, and the main
subject. It just looks that way to those who prefer others
do their thinking for them.
This discussion is about religion. I have seen exactly
the same process used by others on other topics. Outside
the religious scene we are often warned by police to
look out for those who use this style of sales talk. Too
often they fall into the category of "con-artists".

COMPUTER TIPS - - -
-------------------------
COPYING FILES
If you need to copy or move a large group of files,
you can do them one at a time or If you want to
pick up all the files in a folder, it's easiest to
click on the first one, then press shift and click
on the last one. That selects everything
between the first and last.
If the files aren't contiguous, you can select
them individually. Just hold down Ctrl and
click the files you want. Let's say you need a
large group of files, but not few that are in the
middle of the group. If you select the ones
you don't want, then click Edit and Invert
Selection, you'll get the ones you want.

MEDICAL COLUMN - - - -
Health Question On Positioning
PART 3 of 4
Why is turning so important? It has to do with pressure on
certain body parts that will possibly be harmed. If you have a
person lie on their side, the blood in their system/body will
"pool" to the lowest point of their body...i.e. the hip area or
ankles. And if they continue to keep that position, the pressure
of the body weight will start to block off that circulation. If
you actually looked at that skin area you would see first see
redness and then blanching or whitish area. This is the initial
stage of skin breakdown. Unless the person is repositioned, this
could well lead to all sorts of "pressure ulcers or sores".
This is one of the big challenges in nursing homes...people sit
or lie for extended periods of time. We assume they move or
wiggle around to make themselves more comfortable. They often
don't.
There are lots of different protective and positioning aids to
prevent pressure sores. When wrists and ankles are mentioned, it
raises the question of more defined restraint. That would come
under specific hospital policies and doctor's orders. (Keep in
mind that these institutions have many, many experiences like
this and will already have made provision for positive results
and preventative measures. The reports on injuries or unexpected
results are long and tedious to complete. Prevention is the
"firewall".)

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 . . . . . . .

The boys began to saunter home. They strode casually,
talking all the way as young men do. There was not much
happening along the route, the evening was warm and
they were, without knowing it, bonding deeply as friends.
They talked about a lot of things, the day, girls, the events
of the day, girls, the game, girls, the changes Billy would
go through, girls, and all the things boys talk about, and girls.
Billy was displaying a keen interest in what Tim and Tom
could do by living by higher law. He was becoming
fascinated by the fact his newfound friends would just
do these things, and not only think nothing of it, but said
nothing about it either. They were not out to push this
philosophy on anyone, and it was appearing to be a
very practical way of thinking.
Billy studied on it as he walked.
Soon they were home. They sat, again, at the kitchen table
and had a beverage. Alewka and Sam had already gone
to bed. The boys turned out the lights and each went to
their bedrooms.
Billy undressed, then jumped into bed. This had been a
monumental day for him. He thought back on it. Before
going to sleep he had already decided he liked it here
in the Henry household. Then he realized he had no
clothes with him. He would speak of that in the morning.
He drifted off into the best sleep he could remember for
a long, long time.
The following morning it was the smell of fresh brewed
coffee that awakened him. He rose, dressed and went
downstairs.
The only person up was Sam.
"Good morning Mr. Henry." said Billy.
"Good morning Billy. Would you like some
coffee?" asked Sam.
The pair of them sat down at the kitchen table, with coffee.
"How did you sleep last night?" asked Sam.
"Good! I slept good. We stayed up until after midnight
and we played hard at the basketball court, so I slept good.
When I was getting undressed last night, Mr. Henry, it
came to me that I have no clothes to wear, other than the
ones I have on. I will have to go back to the foster home
and get some." Billy remarked.
"Do you want to do that, Billy?" asked Sam.
"Not if I can help it. I don't like going there, if I don't have
to." answered Billy.
"Well, I don't think you will have to. If you go upstairs to
your room, I think you will find all the jeans, underwear,
t-shirts and socks you need in the drawers in the dresser. And
in the closet there are a half dozen shirts I think you'll like.
So don't worry about the clothing issue. Anything
else?" asked Sam.
"Gee, no, Mr. Henry. Thanks!" said Billy as he sipped his
coffee "Do you guys always fix things so fast? Do you
always live this way?" asked Billy.
"Is there something wrong with the way we live,
Billy?" asked Sam.
"No, no, I didn't mean that, Mr. Henry. It is just that you
don't have to go out to the store to buy clothes, they are
just there. Last night we played until midnight and it was
as if it was broad daylight out. Tim and Tom caused it to
be light, somehow. And you don't seem to be worried
about anything, you don't seem to work, you don't seem
to do any of the things most people do. Life seems so
easy for you." said Billy.
"Well, Billy, it can be that easy for you, and every human
in earth, too. All that is needed is for one to choose this
lifestyle." answered Sam.
"What do you mean choose. I can't choose to live like
this! I can't do that stuff." said Billy.
"Billy, you are now in grade twelve at school
right?" asked Sam.
"Yes." said Billy.
"That means that three years ago you were in grade
nine, right?" asked Sam.
"Yes!" answered Billy, somewhat perplexed.
"When you were in grade nine could you have done
the work you now do in grade twelve?" asked Sam.

TODAY'S REPORT:
Today was a busy one. I spent part of the day with a
client going over the ad campaign we have been
working on. I think they are going to be getting some
good business out of it.
And then I went to speak with a "super salesman"
whom I asked to be out Sales Manager. Wow! what
a conversation. This person I know by reputation.
He would be perfect for the job.

HA! HA! HA!
A Goober is walking along the beach one day, and he
sees a bottle laying in the sand. He picks it up and starts
to brush it off, and out pops a genie.
The genie says, "Since you have freed me from the
bottle, I will grant you three wishes."
The Goober thinks for a moment and says, "I'm feeling
a might thirsty, I think I'll be wishing for a bottle of Coke."
POOF! There is a bottle of Coke in his hand. He drinks
it down, and starts to throw the bottle, when the genie
says, "I'd look at that bottle again before I threw it if I
were you." So he looks at the bottle, and it is magically
filling back up with Coke. The genie told him, "That is
a magic bottle, and it will always fill back up after you
finish it." The genie then asked, "What other two wishes
can I grant for you?"
The Goober looks at the bottle in his hand and says,
"I'll be taking two more of these."
