No return to cosmetics made from slaughtered whales
Jojoba growers call for maintenance of commercial whaling moratorium
On the eve of an international conference to discuss the resumption of commercial whaling, the
International Jojoba Export Council (IJEC) announces its strong opposition to lifting the current
moratorium on commercial whaling. The IJEC confirms its support for maximum and permanent
restrictions on the production, trade, and use of whale-derived materials, including spermaceti -
once a core ingredient of cosmetics. Jojoba oil is a common ingredient in cosmetics, sourced
from the seeds of the desert shrub Simmondsia chinensis. Jojoba esters, a derivative of jojoba
oil, are almost identical to spermaceti, a whale-derived material which was among the most
profitable products of commercial whaling

Thank you dearest Sis Heather
This makes a lot of sense.

A very good article which takes two minutes to read. I'm sending this to persons I care about.......I hope you do too!!!

Heart Attacks And Drinking Warm Water

This is a very good article. Not only about the warm water after your meal, but about Heart Attacks. The Chinese and Japanese drink hot tea with their meals, not cold water, maybe it is time we adopt their drinking habit while eating.

For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you. It is nice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal. However, the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. It will slow down the digestion. Once this 'sludge' reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine. Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer. It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal.

Common Symptoms Of Heart Attack...
A serious note about heart attacks - You should know that not every heart attack symptom is going to be the left arm hurting . Be aware of intense pain in the jaw line.

You may never have the first chest pain during the course of a heart attack. Nausea and intense sweating are also common symptoms. 60% of people who have a heart attack while they are asleep do not wake up.. Pain in the jaw can wake you from a sound sleep. Let's be careful and be aware. The more we know, the better chance we could survive.

A cardiologist says if everyone who reads this message sends it to 10 people, you can be sure that we'll save at least one life. Read this & Send to a friend. It could save a life... So, please be a true friend and send this article to all your friends you care about.

Steve Jobs up for Time's 'Person of the Year'

Time magazine has revealed its final seven candidates for Person of the Year, and one Mr. Steven P. Jobs has made the list. Though the editors of Time have already chosen the winner (to be announced on The Today Show on Wednesday morning), MSNBC.com wants to know who us average folk would vote for.

At the risk of our audience being slightly biased, I'm going to release the same poll here. So vote below, and don't feel bad if you don't think Steve should get it. He's already won another little award this year.

'I think I go for this guy! He has guts and determination on his job as well as his health is concern. He is a fighter so so speak and hell politics!

Play/Pause VideoBerlusconi bloodied but unbowed in Milan

noreply@blogger.com (Apple-Nellie) — Mon, 14 Dec 2009 08:32:00 +0000

The Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi is recovering from a broken nose and smashed teeth after an attack at a political rally in Milan. Television footage caught the moment he was hit in the face with an object by someone in the crowd.

The premier was bundled into a car by aides and rushed away minutes after addressing thousands of supporters. The 73-year-old was obviously shocked and was kept in hospital overnight.

He’s said to have been hit by a small model of Milan cathedral, thrown at close range. A 42-year-old man has been arrested and charged with aggravated assault. Massimo Tartaglia is reported to have been receiving treatment for mental problems at a clinic for several years.

Statement from Tom Brokaw on fatal accident

noreply@blogger.com (Apple-Nellie) — Sat, 05 Dec 2009 04:31:00 +0000

NBC News
updated 4:27 p.m. CT, Fri., Dec . 4, 2009
Former NBC News anchor Tom Brokaw issued the following statement Friday after his car collided with a sport utility vehicle in New York. The driver of the second vehicle was killed:

Tom and Meredith Brokaw, at around 1 p.m. today, were in a three vehicle accident on the Bruckner Expressway. The Brokaws were in the far left lane when they noticed a spool of cable bouncing along the far right lane. Just then, a green SUV in the right lane came up fast and tried to avoid the cable. The driver lost control of her vehicle and slid into the middle lane, forcing a mail truck into the Brokaw lane of traffic.

As the mail truck careened into the Brokaw lane, Tom hit the brakes hard and skidded along the median. When the mail truck catapulted the median the Brokaw vehicle slid into it. Neither Tom nor Meredith were injured but tragically the driver of the SUV was thrown from her vehicle and killed. Tom and Meredith are greatly saddened by this loss of life. [...]
