Amazon
The Amazon rainforest produces more than 20% the world's oxygen supply.
TheAmazon River pushes so much water into the Atlantic Ocean that, more than one hundred miles at sea off the mouth of the river, one can dip fresh water out of the ocean. The volume of water in the Amazon river is greater than the next eight largest rivers in the world combined and three times the flow of all rivers in the United States .
Antarctica
Antarctica is the only land on our planet that is not owned by any
Country. Ninety percent of the world's ice covers Antarctica . This
Ice also represents seventy percent of all the fresh water in the
World. As strange as it sounds, however, Antarctica is essentially a
Desert. The average yearly total precipitation is about two inches
Although covered with ice (all but 0.4% of it, I.e.), Antarctica is the
Driest place on the planet, with an absolute humidity lower than the
Gobi desert.
Brazil
Brazil got its name from the nut, not the other way around.
Canada
Canada has more lakes than the rest of the world combined. Canada is an Indian word meaning ' Big Village ..'

How to succeed in the JOB Interview(Tips)
A job interview is your showcase for merchandising your talents. During the interview an employer judges your qualifications, appearance, and general fitness for the job opening. It is your opportunity to convince the employer that you can make a real contribution.
Equally important, it gives you a chance to appraise the job, the employer, and the firm. It enables you to decide if the job meets your career needs and interests and whether the employer is of the type and caliber you want to work for.
Before each interview, though, you should assume that the job you are applying for is precisely the one you want - because it may be. To present your qualifications most advantageously, you will need to prepare in advance. You should have the needed papers ready and the necessary information about yourself firmly in mind; and you should know how to act at the interview to make it an effective device for selling your skills.
Preparing for the interview
Assemble all the papers that you may need. The main item will be your background and work experience inventory. It contains all the facts and figures you could possibly be asked - either in filling in the job application form, or in the job interview. Don't forget to take copies of your resume, even though you may have already submitted one. Take your recent school records and military separation papers. If your work is the sort you can show in an interview, (such as technical drawings, artwork, publications, or procedures), take along a few samples. Be careful not to leave your only copy of something, as it could get lost.
Learn all you can about the company where you are going for an interview - its product or service, standing in the industry, number and kinds of jobs available, and hiring policies.
Know what you have to offer, what education and training you have had, what work you have done, and what you can do. Review your inventory.
Know what kind of job you want and why you want to work for the firm where you are applying.
Bring along the names, addresses, and business affiliations of three persons (not relatives) who are familiar with your work and character. If you are a recent graduate, you can list your teachers. Ask references for permission to use their names.
As you are filling in the job application be aware that it in itself offers an excellent opportunity to convince an employer that you are a valuable person to hire. It is not only a chance to describe your accomplishments but it also shows how clearly you can think and write, and how well you can present important details.
Learn the area salary scale for the type of work you are seeking. If you have the required skill and experience, don't hesitate to state your salary expectations in filling in the application blank. On the other hand, if for any reason you don't want to commit yourself then, simply write "Open" in the space for salary desired. If asked, say you prefer to wait until the job interview to discuss salary. Never take anyone with you to the interview.
Allow as much uninterrupted time for the interview as may be required. (For example, do not park your car in a limited-time space.) Dress conservatively. Avoid either too formal or too casual attire.
You and the interview
Be pleasant and friendly but businesslike.
Let the employer control the interview. Your answers should be frank and brief but complete, without rambling. Avoid dogmatic statements.
Be flexible and willing but give the employer a clear idea of your job preferences.
Stress your qualifications without exaggeration. The employer's questions or statements will indicate the type of person wanted. Use these clues in presenting your qualifications. For example, if you are being interviewed for an engineering position and the employer mentions that the job will require some customer contact work, use this clue to emphasize any work, experience, or courses you have had in this kind of skill.
If you have not sent your resume in advance, present it or your work records, references, personal data, work samples, or other materials to support your statements when the employer requests them.
In discussing your previous jobs and work situations, avoid criticizing former employers or fellow workers.
Don't discuss your personal, domestic, or financial problems unless you are specifically asked. Answer only what relates to the job.
Don’t be in a hurry to ask questions unless the employer invites them. But don't be afraid to ask what you need to know. If the employer offers you a job, be sure you understand exactly what your duties will be. Also find out what opportunities for advancement will be open. A definite understanding about the nature of your job will avoid future disappointment for either you or your employer.
Be prepared to state the salary you want, but not until the employer has introduced the subject. Be realistic in discussing salary. But don't sell yourself short. If the employer does not definitely offer you a job or indicate when you will hear about it, ask when you may call to learn the decision. If the employer asks you to call or return for another interview, make a note of the time, date, and place.
Thank the employer for the interview. If the firm cannot use you, ask about other employers who may need a person with your qualifications.
Testing
Many firms require a psychological test, or a series of such tests, as part of the application procedure. The tests most commonly used are those that indicate intelligence or general aptitude. In addition, some firms use tests that give them information on specific aptitudes, personality traits, and interest patterns.
If you are a recent school graduate, you are probably used to taking tests. But if you have been away from school for some years, you may be apprehensive about the testing process. You may fear that your test scores will not reflect your real ability to do a job. Don't let tests scare you off. None of the commonly used tests require advance preparation; you need not feel concerned over not having "crammed" the night before.
Many tests have time limits. When they do, you will be told how much time you will have. listen carefully to the instructions you receive. If you do not clearly understand what you are expected to do, be sure to ask questions. The time for questions, however, is before the test begins. If the test is timed, seconds lost in asking questions after it starts could seriously affect your score. After your start the test, work steadily and carefully. Do not light a cigarette or do anything else that interrupts your work. In taking most tests, you should not spend too much time on any one question; instead come back to difficult or time-consuming ones after you complete the others.
Once the test is over, do not reproach yourself for not doing better. If the test is well constructed, you probably would make a similar score if you took it again. Remember; too, that employers do not regard your score as an infallible measure of your abilities - but as only one indication of them.
After the Interview
Make each interview a learning experience. After one is over, carefully analyze what went on by asking yourself questions such as these:
• What points did I make that seemed to interest the employer?
• Did I present my qualifications well?
• Did I overlook any that are pertinent to the job?
• Did I pass up any clues that might indicate the best ways to "sell" myself?
• Did I learn all that I needed to know about the job I was trying to get? Or did I forget or hesitate to ask about aspects that are important to me?
• Did I talk too much? Did I talk too little?
• Was I too tense? Or too relaxed?
• Was what I wore appropriate?
• Was I too aggressive? Not aggressive enough?
Based on your answers, draw up a list of specific ways you can improve performance in your next interview.
Count on the fact that your skill in this crucial phase of the job search process has been steadily improving.
If you plan carefully and keep up your enthusiasm you will eventually succeed in "merchandising your job talents "- landing a job that uses your abilities and pay you well.

"ONE DAY AT A TIME"
There are two days in every week about which we should not worry, two days which should be kept free from fear and apprehension.
One of these days is Yesterday with all its mistakes and cares, its faults and blunders, its aches and pains. Yesterday has passed forever beyond our control. All the money in the world cannot bring back yesterday. We cannot undo a single act we performed; we cannot erase a single word we said. Yesterday is gone forever.
The other day we should not worry about is Tomorrow with all its possible adversities, its burdens, its large promise and its poor performance;
Tomorrow is also beyond our immediate control. Tomorrow's sun will rise, either in splendor or behind a mask of clouds, but it will rise. Until it does, we have no stake in tomorrow, for it is yet to be born.
This leaves only one day, Today. Any person can fight the battle of just one day. It is when you and I add the burdens of those two awful eternities Yesterday and Tomorrow that we break down.
It is not the experience of Today that drives a person mad, it is the remorse or bitterness of something which happened yesterday and the dread of what tomorrow may bring.
Let us, therefore, live but one day at a time.

Fighter Jet motorcycle($82350)
How many bucks would you spend to watch a Jet and a bike make love? Not very many I guess, but you must be curious to see the result of this rather unfortunate procreation. Meet MonoTracer! The futuristic looking vehicle is actually a real-life working model and is being built and sold by Peraves.
Basically, MonoTracer is an advanced version of the normal bikes. A cabin mounted on a bike and the drag gets minimized to a great extent, making MonoTracer highly effective at achieving high speeds and greater levels of safety. The vehicle flies at a top speed of 250 kmph and can go from zero to hundred in 5.7 seconds. So time for the distressing factor now: the price. You must doll out $82,350 for a MonoTracer. But hey, the coolness associated with this one makes the buying decision a no-brainer.

Eco-boat powered by human fat attempts round the world speed record
The fastest Eco boat on the planet will attempt to break the round the world speed record using fuel made from human fat.
Pete Bethune, the New Z eland skipper of Earth race, said the attempt to circumnavigate the globe would begin from Valencia in Spain on March 1 next year.
Bethune and his wife mortgaged their house and sold everything they own to help make the project happen, while continuing to seek support from sponsors.
Record breaking attempt: Earth race will attempt to circumnavigate the globe running 100 per cent bio diesel, and with a net zero carbon-footprint.
Earth race is a 78 foot alternative fuel powered wave-piercing trimaran, it can carry 3,000 gallons of fuel, and weighs 23 tonnes when fully fueled
Demonstrating further commitment to the cause, Bethune underwent liposuction and donated enough to produce 100ml of bio fuel, while two other, larger volunteers also had the procedure, making a total of 10 liters of human fat.
This in turn produced seven liters of bio fuel, which could help the boat travel about 15km.
Earth race is fuel led on 100 per cent bio diesel and has a net zero carbon footprint.
The announcement was made at the QE2 pier in Greenwich where Earth race is being hosted by Greenwich Council until January 1.
Circumnavigating the globe represents the pinnacle of powerboat challenges, and more than 24,000 nautical miles is the world’s longest speed challenge.
Pete Bethune, the New Zealand skipper of Earth race, believes the boat can help advance bio diesel as a genuinely viable alternative to petroleum diesel
The current record holder is British boat Cable and Wireless Adventurer which took 75 days in 1998.
From the start in Valencia the boat will cross the Pacific, Atlantic and Indian oceans and travel through the Panama and Suez Canals..
From there the boat will cross the Pacific, Atlantic and Indian oceans as it thunders along the planet’s circumference at a maximum speed of 40 knots.
When it attempts to break the Round the World Speed Record, the goal is to do 20-25 knots (23-29mph) almost continually for 65 days.
The not-for-profit project aims to promote awareness of the environment and the sustainable use of resources.
Inside Earth race: The not-for-profit project aims to promote awareness of the environment and the sustainable use of resources
Earth race, which cost about £1.5 million to build, can carry 3,000 gallons of fuel, and weighs 23 tonnes when fully fueled.
The boat is designed to cut through waves rather than sail over which enables the boat to go faster through big seas compared to conventional craft.
Bethune believes Earth race can help advance bio diesel as a genuinely viable alternative to petroleum diesel.
He said: “Governments have a role to legislate to make bio fuels happen.
Route to success: The boat will cross the Pacific, Atlantic and Indian oceans and travel through the Panama and Suez Canals
“If it were up to market forces, bio fuels wouldn’t happen at all.
“Politicians in Western Europe must be prepared to stand up to the oil industry, and be more supportive of the bio fuels industry to make sure the production of bio fuels is sustainable.”
A successful attempt by Earth race would mark the first time in history that an official UIM (Union Internationale Motonautique - The International Power boating Association) Powerboat world record has been broken using only renewable fuel.
Headache

• Infection in the brain (encephalitis) or of the membrane surrounding the brain and spinal cord (meningitis).
• Stroke, a problem that occurs when a blood vessel (artery) that supplies blood to the brain bursts or is blocked by a blood clot.
• A rupture of a blood vessel with bleeding in or around the brain (aneurysm)
Headaches and other health conditions
Other health conditions that can cause or contribute to headaches include:
• Fibromyalgia, a condition that causes widespread muscle and soft tissue pain and tenderness.
• Glaucoma, an eye disease that damages the nerves at the back of the eye.
• High blood pressure (hypertension).
• High blood sugar (hyperglycemia) or low blood sugar (hypoglycemia).
• Inflammatory problems, such as arthritis, lupus, or giant cell arthritis.
• Kidney disease, which causes wastes to build up in the blood.
• Low calcium levels in the blood (hypocalcaemia) or over activity of the gland that helps control the release of calcium into the blood (hyperparathyroidism).
• Lyme disease, a bacterial infection spread by certain types of ticks.
• Mental health problems, such as anxiety or depression.
• Problems with pregnancy, such as severe high blood pressure (preeclampsia).
• Sleep problems, such as insomnia or sleep apnea.

CANCER PREVENTION UPDATE
AFTER YEARS OF TELLING PEOPLE CHEMOTHERAPY IS THE ONLY WAY TO TRY (TRY THE KEY WORD) AND ELIMINATE CANCER, JOHNHOPKINS HOSPITAL (IN USA ) IS FINALLY STARTING TO TELL YOU THERE IS AN ALTERNATIVE WAY .
1. Every person has cancer cells in the body.These cancer cells do not show up in the standard tests until they have multiplied to a few billion. When doctors tell cancer patients that there are no more cancer cells in their bodies after treatment, it just means the tests are unable to detect the cancer cells because they have not reached the detectable size.
2. Cancer cells occur between 6 to more than 10 times in a person's lifetime.
3. When the person's immune system is strong the cancer cells will be destroyed and prevented from multiplying and forming tumors.
4. When a person has cancer it indicates the person has multiple nutritional deficiencies. These could be due to genetic, environmental, food and lifestyle factors.
5. To overcome the multiple nutritional deficiencies, changing diet and including supplements will strengthen the immune system.
6. Chemotherapy involves poisoning the rapidly growing cancer cells and also destroys rapidly-growing healthy cells in the bone marrow, gastro-intestinal tract etc, and can cause organ damage, like liver, kidneys, heart, lungs etc.
7. Radiation while destroying cancer cells also burns, scars and damages healthy cells, tissues and organs..
8. Initial treatment with chemotherapy and radiation will often reduce tumor size. However prolonged use of chemotherapy and radiation do not result in more tumor destruction.
9. When the body has too much toxic burden from chemotherapy and radiation the immune system is either compromised or destroyed, hence the person can succumb to various kinds of infections and complications.
10. Chemotherapy and radiation can cause cancer cells to mutate and become resistant and difficult to destroy. Surgery can also cause cancer cells to spread to other sites.
11. An effective way to battle cancer is to starve the cancer cells by not feeding it with the foods it needs to multiply.
CANCER CELLS FEED ON:
a. Sugar , is a cancer-feeder.
By cutting off sugar it cuts off one important food supply to the cancer cells. Sugar substitutes like Nutrasweet, Equal, Spoonful, etc are made with Aspartame and it is harmful. A better natural substitute would be Manuka honey or molasses but only in very small amounts. Table salt has a chemical added to make it white in colour. Better alternative is Bragg's aminos or sea salt. ( THE WEST MADE US 2 CHANGE FROM SEA 2 WHITE IODISED SALT )
b. Milk causes the body to produce mucus, especially in the gastro-intestinal tract. Cancer feeds on mucus ..
By cutting off milk and substituting with unsweetened soya milk cancer cells are being starved.
c. Cancer cells thrive in an acid environment .
A meat-based diet is acidic and it is best to eat fish, and a little chicken rather than beef or pork. Meat also contains
livestock antibiotics, growth hormones and parasites, which are all harmful,especially to people with cancer.
d. A diet made of 80% fresh vegetables and juice, whole grains, seeds, nuts and a little fruits help put the body into an alkaline environment .
About 20% can be from cooked food including beans. Fresh vegetable juices provide live enzymes that are easily absorbed
and reach down to cellular levels within 15 minutes to nourish and enhance growth of healthy cells. To obtain live enzymes for
building healthy cells try and drink fresh vegetable juice (most vegetables including bean sprouts) and eat some raw vegetables 2 or 3 times a day.. Enzymes are destroyed at temperatures of 104 degrees F (40 degrees C).
e. Avoid coffee, tea, and chocolate, which have high caffeine .
Green tea is a better alternative and has cancer-fighting properties . Water- best to drink purified water, or filtered, to avoid known toxins and heavy metals in tap water. Distilled water is acidic, avoid it.
12. Meat protein is difficult to digest and requires a lot of digestive enzymes. Undigested meat remaining in the intestines become putrified and leads to more toxic buildup.
13. Cancer cell walls have a tough protein covering. By refraining from or eating less meat it frees more enzymes to attack the protein walls of cancer cells and allows the body's killer cells to destroy the cancer cells.
14. Some supplements build up the immune system (IP6, Flor ssence,Essiac, anti-oxidants, vitamins,minerals, EFAs etc.) to enable the body's own killer cells to destroy cancer cells.
Other supplements like vitamin E are known to cause apoptosis, or programmed cell death, the body's normal method of disposing of damaged, unwanted, or unneeded cells.
15. Cancer is a disease of the mind,body, and spirit. A proactive and positive spirit will help the cancer warrior be a survivor.
Anger, un forgiveness and bitterness put the body into a stressful and acidic environment. Learn to have a loving and forgiving spirit. Learn to relax and enjoy life.
16. Cancer cells cannot thrive in an oxygenated environment. . Exercising daily, and deep breathing help to get more oxygen down to the cellular level. Oxygen therapy is another means employed to destroy cancer cells.

GYM !
One guy - goes to a popular GYM in Bangalore sees an ad for
a new gym guaranteeing to reduce anyone's weight by 5, 10 or 20
kilograms on the first day. So he goes and tells them he wants to lose 5 kg.
They lead him into a huge gym with all kinds of ropes and parallel bars
and ladders and tell him to wait a minute.
He's standing there when on the far side of the gym a door
opens and out steps a beautiful girl, with a sign saying If you catch me, I'm yours.
He starts running, and just as he gets close, she starts
picking up speed. Before he knows it, he's running all over the gym, up the
ladders, down the ladders, across the parallel bars, here and there. And just as
he's about to catch the blonde, pop, she disappears through a door.
In comes the management who lead him to the showers, and then weigh him.
Sure enough, he lost exactly 5 kg.
He's back on the street and starts to think.
God, I was so close to catching her. If I had a little more
time...So he races back to the gym and says, I want to lose 20
more. No problem, says the manager. Again he is led to the large gym.
This time he's standing by the door when it opens. Out comes a Gorilla with a sign. If I catch you, you're mine.
