Chicken Wings – Its Dangerous!
A relapse occurred just a few months later. Distressed, she rushed down to her gynaecologist for a consultation. During her consultation, her doctor asked her a question that puzzled her. He asks if she was a frequent consumer of chicken wings and she replied yes wondering as to how, he knew of her eating habits. You see, the truth is in this modern day and age; chickens are injected with steroids to accelerate their growth so that the needs of this society can be met. This need is none other than the need for food.
Chickens that are injected with steroids are usually given the shot at the neck or the wings. Therefore, it is in these places that the highest concentration of steroids exists. These steroids have terrifying effects on the body as it accelerates growth..
It has an even more dangerous effect in the presence of female hormones, this leads to women being more prone to the growth of a cyst in the womb. Therefore, I advise the people out there to watch their diets and to lower their frequency of consuming chicken wings!

Car-air-conditioning
Please do not turn on A/C as soon as you enter the car. Open the
windows after you enter your car and turn ON the air-conditioning
after a couple of minutes.
Here’s why: According to a research, the car dashboard, sofa, air
freshener emit Benzene, a Cancer causing toxin (carcinogen – take
time to observe the smell of heated plastic in your car). In
addition to causing cancer, Benzene poisons your bones, causes
Anemia and reduces white blood cells. Prolonged exposure will
cause Leukemia, increasing the risk of cancer may also cause
miscarriage.
Acceptable Benzene level indoors is 50 mg per sq.
ft.. A car parked indoors with windows closed will contain
400-800 mg of Benzene. If parked outdoors under the sun at a
Temperature above 60 degrees F, the Benzene level goes up to
2000-4000 mg, 40 times the acceptable level… People who get into
the car, keeping windows closed will inevitably inhale, in quick
succession excessive amounts of the toxin.
Benzene is a toxin that
affects your kidney and liver. What’s worse, it is extremely
difficult for your body to expel this toxic stuff.
So friends, please open the windows and door of your car – give
time for interior to air out -dispel the deadly stuff – before
you enter.
’When someone shares something of value with you and you
benefit from it, you have a moral obligation to share it with
others.’
Everyone Was a Billionaire In Yugoslavia ( Serbia )
Denomination was the 10,000,000,000 Dinara notes which were worth only 6 USD at that time. In October 1993, Yugoslavia reformed the currency in setting 1 Million old Dinara equal to 1 New Dinara. By the end of the year, the exchange rate was 3 Trillion (3,000,000,000, 000) Dinara to 1 USD. The highest denomination at that time in Yugoslavia was the 500,000,000, 000 Dinara note, and it was only worth 16 US Cents, by the end of the year. It probably cost more to print the notes than they were worth. In September 1993, the exchange rate had fallen to 1,700,000,000 Dinara to 1 USD, and the highest.

Top 14 things smart business people are doing to grow their businesses.
Make Internal Improvements
1. Monitor cash flow. Cash is king, now more than ever. Make sure your lines of credit are adequate, and pay extra attention to cash-flow projections. If you run short of working capital, manage by cash (not profit and loss statements). Monitor your numbers closely, and be ready to act.
2. Review your strengths and weaknesses. Know thyself. If you are aware of flaws in any areas of your business, remedy them now. They make you vulnerable. Similarly, find new ways to capitalize on your strengths. You need them more than ever.
3. Rethink your sales strategy. Identify your most profitable products or services, and focus your sales efforts accordingly. Use gross profit as a measure, or better yet, your gross margin return on investment.
4. Categorize your customers. Determine who’s profitable, and who’s not. If some customers are a drain on resources, either raise their prices or “fire” them. You can’t afford to carry unprofitable customers along; you need to work lean and mean right now.
5. Improve work processes. If there are excess costs in your workflow, squeeze them out, so your business runs as efficiently as possible. Perhaps you can benefit from an assessment program such as Total Quality Management.
6. Increase throughput. During soft markets, customers often purchase in smaller quantities. Instead of turning small accounts away, find ways to accommodate them. If you can shorten lead and set-up times without compromising work flow, do so. It will add up.
7. Ramp up marketing efforts. What’s the first thing many firms do to tighten their belts? The exact worst thing: cut back on marketing. Research proves that companies that maintain (or better yet, accelerate) marketing activity during soft economies reap greater benefits later. Besides, marketing firms are hungry for business now, so you can negotiate better deals.
8. Review your compensation. You need to get the most from your work force now. If you haven’t already, put performance measurements in place and link compensation to performance. Think creatively: Can you lower base salaries while increasing results-driven bonuses? Remember, salaries are the single largest expense for most small businesses.
Seek External Opportunities
9. Create strategic alliances. Forming simple partnerships can save you money. Consider buying pools, rent sharing and equipment sharing as ways to reduce expenses. Another idea: Can manufacturers’ reps and export agents give sales a boost?
10. Renegotiate with vendors to reduce expenses. Take your rent, for example. If your lease will expire in the next few years, suggest a longer-term lease in return for cost concessions. Or, if you are in a position to pay suppliers promptly, use it to obtain price discounts and promotional allowances.
11. Target your competitors’ customers. If one of your competitors is struggling, reach out to its known customers. If those customers sense a decline in quality or fear a service disruption, they may be receptive to your pitch.
12. Even better, acquire your competitors. If you’re in a position to buy out floundering competitors, consider it, but only if it will further your own strategic goals.
13. Upgrade personnel. There are many talented people looking for work right now. If you’ve been muddling along with mediocre employees, know that they’re dragging your business down. If you can’t bring their performance up to par, do the hard thing and make some changes.
14. Keep your eyes open. Be on the lookout for fresh ideas and opportunities. Stay abreast of news and trends. Interact with other entrepreneurs to see what they’re doing. Learn from what’s going on around you, and be poised to jump on opportunities when they come your way.
When the going gets tough, smart leaders get going. Be prepared, and be proactive. Your company can not only survive the recession, but also benefit from it, provided you take the lead.
10 Facts You Must Know About Your Body
1 – Body Position Affects Your Memory
l skin, without coloring, would appear creamy white. Near-surface blood vessels add a blush of red. A yellow pigment also tints the canvas. Lastly, sepia-toned melanin, created in response to ultraviolet rays, appears black in large amounts. These four hues mix in different proportions to create the skin colors of all the peoples of Earth.?
3 - Your Stomach Secretes Corrosive Acid
There’s one dangerous liquid no airport security can confiscate from you: It’s in your gut. Your stomach cells secrete hydrochloric acid, a corrosive compound used to treat metals in the industrial world. It can pickle steel, but mucous lining the stomach wall keeps this poisonous liquid safely in the digestive system, breaking down lunch.
4 - Bones Break (Down) to Balance Minerals
In addition to supporting the bag of organs and muscles that is our body, bones help regulate our calcium levels. Bones contain both phosphorus and calcium, the latter of which is needed by muscles and nerves. If the element is in short supply, certain hormones will cause bones to break down upping calcium levels in the body until the appropriate extra cellular concentration is reached.
5 - Big Brains Cause Cramped Mouths
Evolution isn’t perfect. If it were, we might have wings instead of wisdom teeth. Sometimes useless features stick around in a species simply because they’re not doing much harm. But wisdom teeth weren’t always a cash crop for oral surgeons. Long ago, they served as a useful third set of meat-mashing molars. But as our brains grew our jawbone structure changed, leaving us with expensively overcrowded mouths.
6 – Much of a Meal is Food For Thought
Though it makes up only 2 percent of our total body weight, the brain demands 20 percent of the body’s oxygen and calories. To keep our noggin well-stocked with resources, three major cerebral arteries are constantly pumping in oxygen. A blockage or break in one of them starves brain cells of the energy they require to function, impairing the functions controlled by that region. This is a stroke.
7 – Thousands of Eggs Unused by Ovaries
When a woman reaches her late 40s or early 50s, the monthly menstrual cycle that controls her hormone levels and readies ova for insemination ceases. Her ovaries have been producing less and less estrogen, inciting physical and emotional changes across her body. Her underdeveloped egg follicles begin to fail to release ova as regularly as before. The average adolescent girl has 34,000 underdeveloped egg follicles, although only 350 or so mature during her life (at the rate of about one per month). The unused egg follicles then deteriorate. With no potential pregnancy on the horizon, the brain can stop managing the release of ova.
8 – Puberty Reshapes Brain Structure, Makes for Missed Curfews
We know that hormone-fueled changes in the body are necessary to encourage growth and ready the body for reproduction. But why is adolescence so emotionally unpleasant? Hormones like testosterone actually influence the development of neurons in the brain, and the changes made to brain structure have many behavioral consequences. Expect emotional awkwardness, apathy and poor decision-making skills as regions in the frontal cortex mature.
9 – Cell Hairs Move Mucus
10 – The World Laughs with You
Just as watching someone yawn can induce the behavior in yourself, recent evidence suggests that laughter is a social cue for mimicry. Hearing a laugh actually stimulates the brain region associated with facial movements. Mimicry plays an important role in social interaction. Cues like sneezing, laughing, crying and yawning may be ways of creating strong social bonds within a group.
