Please save the life...

                                    HORRENDOUS!!!........


Denmark is a big shame .

The sea is stained in red and in the meanwhile its not because of the climate effects of nature. 



Description: Description: cid:image001.jpg@01CB7DD1.3401A130

It's because of the cruelty that human beings (civilised human) kill hundreds of the famous and intelligent Calderon dolphins.
 

Description: Description: cid:image002.jpg@01CB7DD1.3401A130
This happens every year in Feroe Iland in Denmark . In this slaughter the main participants are young teens.
 

WHY?
 

A celebration, to show that they are adults and mature!
 

Description: Description: cid:image003.jpg@01CB7DD1.3401A130

In this big celebration, nothing is missing for the fun. Everyone is participating in one way or the other, killing or looking at the cruelty supporting like a spectator
 

Description: Description: cid:image004.jpg@01CB7DD1.3401A130
It is necessary to mention that the dolphin calderon, like all the other species of dolphins, its near extinction and they get near men to play and interact in PURE friendship
 .

Description: Description: cid:image006.jpg@01CB7DD1.3401A130

They dont die instantly; they are cut 1, 2 or 3 times with thick hooks. And at that time the dolphins produce a grim cry like that of a new born child.
 

Description: Description: cid:image007.jpg@01CB7DD1.3401A130
But he suffers and theres no compassion while this magnificent creature slowly dies in its own blood
 
Description: Description: cid:image008.jpg@01CB7DD1.3401A130

Description: Description: cid:image009.jpg@01CB7DD1.3401A130

Enough!
 

We should forward this message until it arrives in the ears of all associations which protect and defend the animals, we wont only read. That would make us accomplices, viewers.

Take care of the world, it is our home!
 
So please send this message to more and more people to save these species....

Use of aspirin

A former EMT with CareFlight (same as Life Flight in Houston (but in  Dallas ) sent this information.  He said do not have the heart attack patient swallow the aspirin but place it under the tongue.  The reason is, there are 2 good size veins (which return blood to heart) that are only covered by a thin layer of membrane.  This allows for the aspirin to almost immediately enter the blood stream going to the heart.  If swallowed, the aspirin has to take a longer journey through the stomach before reaching the heart.  If you go to a mirror and stick out your tongue so that you can see the underside, you can see the 2 blue veins running parallel on either side of the center of the tongue.  This former EMT's Dad was lucky to already know this procedure when he had his heart attack and credits it to saving his life. 
IMPORTANT READ.....
Something that we can do to help ourselves.  Nice to know.  Bayer is making crystal aspirin to dissolve under the tongue. They work much faster than the tablets.
Why keep aspirin by your bedside? 
About Heart Attacks 
There are other symptoms of an heart attack besides the pain on the left arm. 
One must also be aware of an intense pain on the chinas well as nausea and lots ofsweating , however these symptoms may also occur less frequently.

Note :   There may be NO pain in the chest during a heart attack.  The majority of people (about 60%) who  had a heart attack during their sleep, did not wake up.  However, if it occurs, the chest pain may wake you up from your deep sleep. 
If that happens, immediately dissolve two aspirins in your mouth and swallow them with a bit of water
.

Afterwards :

 phone a neighbour  or a family member who lives very close by
 say  "heart attack!"  say that you have taken 2 aspirins ..
-   take a seat on a chair or sofa near the front door, and wait for their arrival and ...

Now wash your hands - and your mobile

                      It is the sort of news story that will have left many feeling queasy over their breakfast cereal - a study which suggests one in six mobile phones is contaminated with faecal matter. Researchers at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine and Queen Mary, University of London took nearly 400 samples from mobile phones and hands in 12 British cities. They found 16% of phones and 16% of hands harboured E. coli (Escherichia coli), bacteria which inhabit the human intestines.  The largest proportion of contaminated phones was in Birmingham (41%) while Londoners were caught with the highest proportion of E. coli present on hands (28%).  But the sample size in each city was small, so the variations between them could be a statistical anomaly. 
                     However Dr Val Curtis, from the London School of Hygiene says the study showed clear differences between north and south. Why do so many people clearly not wash their hands with soap after a visit to the toilet? Perhaps they do, but are simply doing it wrong.” "We found the further north we went the more hands and phones were likely to be contaminated. It could be the bugs survive better in colder and wetter conditions or it might be that people wash their hands less." I explained to Dr Curtis that such comments were unlikely to win her friends in Glasgow and Liverpool - two of the cities where samples were taken.  But she brushed this aside explaining that after a similar survey three years ago she was advised not to hang around Newcastle.
               Archers warning Most strains of E. coli found on the hands and phones are not likely to cause major ill-health, although listeners of "The Archers" will know that Clarrie Grundy became an unwitting carrier of the bacteria, leading to a number of children being  hospitalised in the fictional county of Borsetshire. Dr Curtis explained that they were using E. coli as a marker for the presence of faecal matter.  She said: "Campylobacter and Salmonella bacteria are much more likely to cause a gastric infection and could easily be passed on through faecal contamination." So we are talking about poo, excrement - on mobile phones and fingers.
                Hand washing technique Why do so many people clearly not wash their hands with soap after a visit to the toilet? Perhaps they do, but are simply doing it wrong. I remember having correct hand-washing technique described to me by the virologist Professor John Oxford. He thought people didn't wash thoroughly enough, or long enough - two verses of Happy Birthday to you were suggested. Perhaps there is also a confusion in some people's minds about dirt and germs. After all, there is plenty of research suggesting dirt can be good for you. Since the late 1980s the "hygiene hypothesis" has argued that the lack of early childhood exposure to some germs may be linked to the rise in allergic diseases, by suppressing the development of the immune system. It's a much-debated theory.  But while letting your children - or your husband - play in the dirt may well be ok, they still need to wash their hands after the toilet. Or after handling raw meat and poultry.                  Big killer 
            You simply have to look to the developing world to see the devastating effects of poor hygiene. Diarrhoeal disease remains one of the world's biggest killers. While hand-washing may help prevent a nasty stomach bug here, in poorer countries it can save lives. The survey from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine is timed to publicise Global Handwashing Day on 15 October.  It is an annual event which promotes hand-hygiene, the cheapest and most effective way of preventing infection by bacteria and viruses.

Hiccups..


  A hiccup is an unintentional movement (spasm) of the diaphragm, the muscle at the base of the lungs. The spasm is followed by quick closing of the vocal cords, which produces a distinctive sound.
Hiccups often start for no apparent reason and usually disappear after a few minutes. Rarely, hiccups can last for days, weeks, or months. Hiccups are common and normal in newborns and infants.


Causes

  • Abdominal surgery
  • Disease or disorder that irritates the nerves that control the diaphragm (such as pleurisy or pneumonia)
  • Hot and spicy foods or liquids
  • Harmful fumes
  • Stroke or tumor affecting the brain
There may be no obvious cause for hiccups.

Home care
There is no sure way to stop hiccups, but there are a number of common suggestions that may be effective:
  • Breathe repeatedly into a paper bag.
  • Drink a glass of cold water.
  • Eat a teaspoon of sugar.
  • Hold your breath.
  • sometimes a sudden shock may get rid of hiccups.

Bicarbonate of soda..

   Bicarbonate of Soda is not just for baking once a year.
There are some incredible uses, that are easypeasy.

1. Cleaning
First and foremost, bicarb is fantastic for clearning.
Soak tea or coffee stained mugs with bicarb dissolved in water overnight
and theyll come out squeaky clean.
A bicarb solution will remove scuff marks on laminate floors or skirting boards
with a bit of gentle wiping.
Add a little water to bicarb to make a paste and use this to polish your silver for a brilliant shine.
You can also dip half a potato in a bicarb solution and then use it to rub away rust on cutlery,
or anything else metal.


2. Removing bad smells
An open tub of bicarb in your fridge will rid it of that gone-off food smell
that seems to linger even though youve thrown out everything thats past its sell-by date.
You can also get rid of garlic (or generally bad) breath by gargling with a teaspoon of bicarb
dissolved in a glass of water.
Use a powder puff to dab some bicarb under your arms for an effective deodorant.
It wont make you smell of roses, but you wont smell bad either.
A small bag filled with bicarb and put in your wardrobe will also stop
your clothes smelling musty.


3. Soothing skin
A bicarbonate of soda solution dabbed onto a minor burn until it has cooled will soothe it
and help it heal. If youve been bitten by a mosquito or any other insect,
a paste of bicarbonate of soda will help sooth the bite and dry it out so it heals quicker.
4. Freshen up
If you want to freshen up your whites a scoop of bicarb in your white wash
will have them dazzling in no time. As well as invigorating your clothes,
a bit of bicarb in the water for your cut flowers will help keep them perky for longer
and boost alkaline loving potted plants.

5. Tenderising meat
Fed up with bashing out your meat with a little hammer to get it tender?
Instead, pour bicarb over it and then leave to work its magic in the fridge for 3-5 hours.
Once youre ready to cook, rinse off thoroughly and your meat will be beautifully tender.

6. Fire safety
In case your kitchen is short of a fire-safety blanket,
when poured over a grease or oil fire,
bicarbonate of soda can extinguish flames.
Although it wouldnt be safe to rely on this in an emergency!
