"UNFAITHFUL HUSBAND'S EDUCATION" Jun 1, 2009 3:43 am Mood: adventurous, 435 Views There was a young woman who knew, Her husband was being untrue. She knew his unfaithfulness grew, And she didn't know what to do. She had a strong indication, About his extra relation. It caused her some real vexation, For she'd had more expectations. He'd quit climbing into her bed, And he didn't care what she said. It made her curious instead, She wondered who was getting bred. This made her somewhat suspicious, Cause she knew she was delicious. Things just weren't very auspicious. Then her thoughts got real ambitious. She'd find herself a detective, And make sure he was subjective, And that he could be reflective, About what was her objective. She was feeling real vexation, At this unwanted relation. But she had some expectation, That she would soon cause sensation. The detective she'd hired got proof, Because her old man was a "Goof." And when he stood in court aloof, That judge made his assetts go "Poof!" Now his "Ex-Wife" has all his dough, And he just don't know where to go. He walked from that courtroom real slow, A much wiser man feeling low. He got a real education, And learned about new relations. How they could cause real vexations, And a financial castration!! 0 Comments

~THE BEAUTY OF A WOMAN~ May 31, 2009 12:51 am Mood: beautiful, 424 Views The beauty of a woman we cannot do without She is there when we may need her and even when we pout The tenderness in her eyes and touch When she cares for us so much. There is a seed inside us all that grows with only love She nurtures and provides for us so we will soar above The gentle kiss goodnight or a smile to start our day She is there for us in many different ways. How many times we cry in pain and think it will never end She wraps us in a warm embrace and always helps us mend The whisper inside our hearts when we’re feeling down That all will be ok to help erase our frowns. The beauty of a woman is not upon her skin It is something that just radiates from somewhere deep within She looks upon us all, with a smile in her heart And touches us in ways we remember from the start. 2 Comments

WORLD NO TOBACCO DAY May 30, 2009 7:52 pm Mood: hopeful, 396 Views [B]“Tobacco health warnings”—the theme for this year’s No Tobacco Day on March 31st, reinforces the need to step up graphic warnings on tobacco packages to discourage consumers from using tobacco in any form—smoking cigars, cigarettes, water pipes, hookah and beedis and the non smoking version such as chewing tobacco or sniffing powdered tobacco. Several international studies have proved that effective health warnings, especially graphic details of the health hazards of tobacco can motivate users to quit using tobacco and discourage first timers from getting into the habit. More and more countries are beginning to follow the guidelines drafted in the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control and putting up a spirited fight to beat the tobacco industry as it tries to lure more hapless people into tobacco addiction. Tobacco Trouble Unable to plug tobacco at the supply level, health organizations all over the world issue repeated warnings about the devastating effects of tobacco on the health of consumers –especially smokers, and also on hapless people who are passive smokers or second hand smokers, inhaling the toxic smoke released by smokers. Strong medical evidence supports the fact that using tobacco seriously affects many organs of the body, causing various diseases and reducing overall health. Several studies have shown the negative health effects of cigarette smoking on people of all ages –unborn fetus, infants, young children, adults and seniors. Some of the health risks of tobacco include lung cancer, oral cancer, cancers of the stomach, bladder, kidney and pancreas, impotence, chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder (COPD) and cardiovascular diseases such as heart attacks angina and stroke. Shocking Smoking Statistics and Facts There are currently more than 1.1 billion smokers in the world and the number could increase to 1.6 billion by 2025 Approximately 10 million cigarettes are purchased each minute worldwide Benzene in cigarette smoke is a known cause of acute myeloid leukemia One in five teens in the world begins smoking when 13 years old Every 8 seconds someone dies of tobacco use in the world (approx 5 million deaths annually) Passive smoking (second hand smoke) takes in over 50% cancer-causing chemical compounds Specific Tobacco Health Warnings Needed According to a recent WHO observation, though there is a general awareness in many countries that tobacco harms health, consumers lack specific knowledge of the serious health risks of tobacco.Studies done in Asia and Africa support this disparity in knowledge. China only 37% of smokers knewsmoking causes coronary disease only 17% of smokers knew it causes stroke though 95% of physicians knew smoking causes lung cancer, only 66% of physicians knew it causes heart disease India less than 50% of school and college students in Gujarat knew Gutka (popular mix of betel nut and tobacco) causes oral cancer 58% of those who chew areca nut and tobacco in Tamil Nadu were unaware of the serious health hazards Israel 50% of school children believed smoking water pipe was less harmful than smoking cigarettes (it is equally harmful) Africa though 87% of those who responded knew the harmful effects of smoking, only 58% knew smoking causes cancer and only 36% related heart problems to smoking Kick the Butt Now Cigarette smoking and all other kinds of tobacco use are addictive because nicotine in tobacco triggers addiction similar to heroin or cocaine addiction. Nicotine is known to cause chemical changes in the brain that make nicotine addiction a physical dependency. Withdrawal symptoms such as headaches, irritability, hunger, insomnia, decreased heart rate and blood pressure are common. There are several ‘Quit Smoking Aids’ available world wide to help people addicted to smoking. Studies show that the people have quit smoking for reasons such as health concerns, life style changes, having a baby, high cost of cigarettes or death of a friend or family member. The most common reason smokers put forward for not kicking the butt is lack of will power. True to the maxim “A picture is worth a thousand words,” the WHO is exhorting all countries to display pictorial warnings on tobacco packages so that the message of the evils of tobacco reaches the literate and the illiterate. With tobacco traders continuously stepping up sale of tobacco products, health experts are aware that it is getting increasingly difficult to persuade people to give up the nicotine craving, which is a leading cause of preventable death. Scaring people into giving up the obnoxious use of tobacco by displaying horror pictures of tobacco –related diseases should hopefully do the trick and help consumers shake free of their tobacco addiction.
