ANSWERS TO YESTERDAY'S TRIVIA - - - -

What exactly is an "endangered" species?

An "endangered" species is one that may become extinct. A
species is considered endangered when the number of
individuals of a plant or animal species has gotten so low
that scientists think it will die out. A "threatened"
species is one that may become endangered in the near
future. The population of individuals might be higher, but
not high enough to sustain reproduction or survive a natural
crisis.

How hot is the center of the earth?

EXTREMELY hot. Scientists estimate that the temperature at
the center of the earth is about 9,000 degrees Fahrenheit,
nearly as hot as the surface of the sun.

Here's To Think On . . . by Ken Darby
-----------------


It Is Tough When . . .

The businessman dragged himself home and barely made it to
his chair before he dropped exhausted.

His sympathetic wife was right there with a tall cool drink
and a comforting word. "My, you look tired," she said. "You
must have had a hard day today. What happened to make you so
exhausted?"

"It was terrible," her husband said. "The computer broke
down and all of us had to do our own thinking."


I know how this guy feels.

I have written on this subject before but it bears
repeating. Changes cost us energy. Changes cost us our goals
and rewards.

I know the only thing constant is change but too many
changes are imposed upon us and that serves nothing but to
keep you poor. Those in control know this.

It really boils down to the old western movie theme. The bad
guys come in to town and set fire to the church. While
everybody is up at the church putting out the fire the bad
guys are down at the bank helping themselves.

The same is true with all of us everyday. The more we react
to changes imposed upon us by government, church, industry
and others, the more "unsettled" we are. We actually end up
at the church putting out the fire for 50% or more of our
time.

Now, a simple question. Who can progress when they permit
the world to control their lives?

This is no small matter. Some of you will sit there scoffing
and saying "Yeah! But what can I do about it?"

The answer is STOP.

Make choices today as to what you are going to do today.
Make choices tomorrow as to what you are going to do
tomorrow. DO NOT make those choices on the basis of "I have
to" or "my boss or someone expects me to".

Make your choice exclusively on the basis of how will this
contribute to my life, my goals, my objectives today. There
is no need to think this a cold and heartless method. I am
not asking you to shun those who need help. I am not asking
you to be arrogant, selfish or greedy. I am not asking you
to be a heartless fool.

I am asking you to follow the law "As ye give, so shall ye
receive . . .". I am asking you to get your eyes on your
prize and keep them there and to stop reacting to conditions
you perceive as changing and therefor requiring your action.

I have a secret for you. 90% of all the things you do
because of changes imposed upon you are unnecessay action.
It is purely and simply a waste of your time, your energy
and your resources. If you would enjoy prosperity, peace,
power, plenty and happiness then follow the law.

Stop reacting to changes. If you analyze carefully you can
easily determine to which you do and do not have to react.

I used to live in a large city and followed the masses,
reacting the same as everyone else. Now I live in the
country on a beautiful lake some 40 miles from my earlier
home. I no longer react as I once did because it is not as
convenient. Wow! What a lifesaver! I soon discovered it is
completely unnecessary to react to most of the stuff imposed
upon us.

Peace, power, plenty, prosperity can all be found when you
are still and listen to what you are told from within.

Oh! I know it is hard, because you are changing a long held
habit.

Just remember IT IS TOUGHER WHEN you keep on doing
the same old thing, and make no changes for YOU.

Could Your Blood Pressure Be Too Low?
A Plea For Some Common Sense: Some Sanity
PART 2 of 12
 
Let’s get the definitions, signs and symptoms, and the links
out of the way, BUT you need to keep these links handy as
you read the rest of the article. You may need to refresh
your memory and these sites will give you
professionally-correct information. Before you do anything,
even if you suspect your own situation might be causing
problems, read the article to its conclusion and completion.
Do NOT run to make any changes without medical support. Arm
yourself with questions, possible answers, and research to
back your thoughts.
 
Definitions, signs, and symptoms: Hypotension aka Low Blood
Pressure   Mosby describes “hypotension” as a condition
without actual numbers. And that makes so much more sense to
me. It states: ”an abnormal condition in which blood
pressure is not adequate for normal perfusion and
oxygenation of the tissue.”
 
http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/003398.htm 
“Hypotension (blood pressure below normal): may be indicated
by a systolic pressure lower than 90, or a pressure 25 mmHg
lower than usual“(paraphrased) Low blood pressure is an
abnormal condition where the pressure of the blood against
the walls of the blood vessels during and after each beat of
the heart is much lower than usual. This can cause symptoms
such as dizziness or lightheadedness. When the blood
pressure is too low, there is inadequate blood flow to all
parts of your body, including the heart, brain, and other
vital organs. A blood pressure level that is borderline low
for one person may be normal for another. The most important
factor is how the blood pressure changes from the normal
condition. Most normal blood pressures fall in the range of
90/60 mm Hg to 130/80 mm Hg, but a significant change, even
as little as 20 mm Hg, can cause problems for some people.

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.

-----------------------END DISCLAIMER


Racial Profiling?

For some time now I have been bothered by calls from the
Moslem world about racial profiling. They seem to think they
are being selected by the world's police forces and border
security forces from all countries just because they are
moslem.

I know the feeling, and in truth it is not right, yet they
think they have troubles. Let's look at a few things in the
cold light of day.

Take a piece of paper and write down all the trouble spots
in the world you can think of. Even ask your spouse and
others for all the places you can find.

Now, on another piece of blank paper take all the places on
your first list that are not caused by moslem people, and
write out a new list. Stroke a line, on your first list,
through all the ones you moved. Now compare your two lists.

You wonder why the moslems are racially profiled? Your list
should tell you.

Consider that they don't like being detained at border
crossings, or picked up by police, or investigated by
police. None of them seem to ask why their own people are
racially profiling Americans or UN troops. And there is a
big difference between being detained or investigated, and
being killed. The moslem world is itself the world's greatest
racial profiling organization that exists. They indiscriminately
kill Americans or anyone under the UN flag just because they
are American or a UN soldier. You talk about racial
profiling.

I say to you if they feel they are racially profiled, then
put on a soldiers uniform and go fight terrorism like any
other UN soldier does. Take up the risk of death then see
how insignificant being detained is.

One more thing. If I could see a universal, all
encompassing, aggressive, forceful but non violent move
throughout the worlds moslems attempting to stop those
within their ranks that promote violence and terrorism, then
I might feel bad about racial profiling. Until then, until
they get it stopped by themselves then they are subject to
reaping the rewards from the efforts of those in their group
who feel it is just fine to kill anyone they please at will.

WHY DO WE SAY IT?



Calendar. How did the calendar" get its name?

From the Latin word for an interest book kept by
money-lenders - the calendarium. Interest fell due on the
calends or first day of the month. Calends itself came from
calare - the Latin verb meaning "to call" - because the
Romans used to publicly "call out" the first day of the
month.

THINK ABOUT THIS TODAY!


If you wait for tomorrow, tomorrow comes. If you don't
wait for tomorrow, tomorrow comes.
African proverb



<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>
<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

HA! HA! HA!



The homeowner got into his old work clothes one Saturday
morning and set about all the chores his wife had been
urging him to do all week. He cleaned the garage, pruned
the hedge, and was halfway through mowing the lawn when
a woman pulled up in the driveway and called out her
window, "Say, what do you get for yard work??"

The fellow thought for a moment, then answered, "The lady
who lives here lets me sleep with her!!" ;-)
