Q: Doctor, I've heard that cardiovascular ex-ercise can prolong life. Is this true?A: Heart only good for so many beats, andthat it... Don't waste on exer-cise. Everything wear outeventually. Speeding up heartnot make you live longer; itlike saying you extend life ofcar by driving faster. Want tolive longer? Take nap.
Q: Should I reduce my alcoholintake?A: Oh no. Wine made from
fruit. Brandy distilled wine, thatmean they take water out offruity bit so you get even moreof goodness that way. Beer alsomade of grain. Bottom up!
Q: How can I calculate my body/fat ratio?A: Well, if you have body and you have fat,your ratio one to one.. If you have two body,your ratio two to one.
Q: What are some of the advantages of par-ticipating in a regular exercise program?A: Can't think of single one, sorry. My phi-
losophy: No pain...good!
Q: Aren't fried foods badfor you?A: YOU NOT LISTEN-ING! Food fried in veg-etable oil. How gettingmore vegetable be bad?
Q: Will sit-ups help pre-vent me from getting a lit-
tle soft around themiddle?A: Oh no! When you ex-
ercise muscle, it get bigger.You should only be doing sit-up if you wantbigger stomach.
Q: Is chocolate bad for me?A: You crazy?!? HEL-LO-O!! Cocoabean! Another vegetable! It best feel-good
food around!
Q: Is swimming good for your figure?A: If swimming good for figure, explainwhale to me.
Q: Is getting in shape important for mylifestyle?A: Hey! 'Round' is shape!
Well... I hope this has cleared up any mis-conceptions you may have had about foodand diets.
And remember:
Life should NOT be a journey to the gravewith the intention of arriving safely in an at-tractive and well-preserved body, but ratherto skid in sideways - Chardonnay in one hand- chocolate in the other - body thoroughlyused up, totally worn out and screaming"WOO-HOO, what a ride!!"
AND..... For those of you who watch whatyou eat, here's the final word on nutrition andhealth. It's a relief to know the truth after all
those conflicting nutritional studies.
1. The Japanese eat very little fat and sufferfewer heart attacks than Americans.
2. The Mexicans eat a lot of fat and sufferfewer heart attacks than Americans.
3. The Chinese drink very little red wine andsuffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.
4. The Italians drink a lot of red wine and suf-fer fewer heart attacks than Americans...
5. The Germans drink a lot of beer and eatlots of sausages and fats and suffer fewerheart attacks than Americans.
CONCLUSION: Eat and drink what youlike. Speaking English is apparently whatkills you.
My mother and I returned from thegrocery store and began put-ting away the groceries. I openedthe box of Animal Crackers andspread them all over the table."What are you doing," my Mom
asked? "The box says youcan't eatthem ifthe seal is
broken," Iexplained.
"I'm look-ing for theseal."
Sierra turns 8 atAdventure Park!
I Love My Doctor:
Alittle boy wanted to meet God. He knew it was a long trip to where God lived,so he packed his suitcase with a bag of potato chips and a six-pack ofroot beer and started his journey.
When he had goneabout three blocks,he met an old man.He was sitting in thepark, just staring at somepigeons. The boy sat downnext to him and opened hissuitcase. He was about to takea drink from his root beer when henoticed that the old man looked hun-gry, so he offered him some chips. Hegratefully accepted it and smiled at him.
His smile was so pretty that the boywanted to see it again, so he offered hima root beer. Again, he smiled at him. Theboy was delighted! They sat there all af-ternoon eating and smiling, but theynever said a word..
As twilight approached, the boy realized how tired he was and he got up to leave;but before he had gone more than a few steps, he turned around, ran back to
the old man, and gave him a hug. He gave him his biggest smile ever..When the boy opened the door to his own house a short time later,
his mother was surprised by the look of joy on his face. She asked him,"What did you do today that made you so happy?"
He replied, "I had lunch with God." But before his mothercould respond, he added, "You know what? He's got the most
beautiful smile I've ever seen!"Meanwhile, the old man, also radiant with joy, returned to
his home. His son was stunned by the look of peace on hisface and he asked, "dad, what did you do today that made youso happy?"He replied "I ate potato chips in the park with God." However,
before his son responded, he added, "You know, he's much youngerthan I expected."
Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a lis-tening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential
to turn a life around. People come into our lives for a reason, a season, or a lifetime! Embraceall equally!
Have lunch with God.......bring chips.

More than 100 excited people,including the Consul Gen-eral of the Slovak Republic, re-cently enjoyed the re-dedication ofGibbs Butterfly Park with the un-veiling of eight artistic tiles show-ing the development of a newMonarch Butterfly.
In 2007, the area west of Mead-owlark Golf Course had 179 deadeucalyptus trees, which caught theattention of neighbor LeslieGilson. She approached the City ofHuntington Beach to seeif the land could berestored.
Working withthe city, Lesliespearheadedan effort thati n v o l v e dmany vol-unteers, in-c l u d i n gJean Nagyof the HBTree Society,
the citys Park,Tree and Land-scape group,neighbors, BoyScouts, school childrenand others.
The beautification project hadthe trees removed, new eucalyptusplanted and a tile mosaic explain-ing how Monarchs migrate therebetween November and March.Many of the butterflies, who areescaping freezing temperatures inColorado, Nevada, Utah, NewMexico and Arizona, stop at Gibbs
Park before heading south. Otherlocal Monarchs are in the parkmuch of the year, thanks to theamazing effort, which included anEagle Scout project that put spe-cially placed trees on the golfcourse for butterfly wind protec-tion in the park.
Real leaders are ordinary peo-ple with extraordinary determina-tion, said Jean Nagy, President ofthe non-profit HB Tree Society. Itwas a wonderful private-publicpartnership that saved the park. Iwant to thank Leslie and everyone
who has done so much to help
make it flourish.Im so impressed that so many
people took such interest in restor-ing this place so people can comehere today and relax, reflect,recharge and reconnect with na-ture, said park namesake, HBsfirst woman mayor, Norma Bran-del Gibbs.
The exciting new butterfly tilescreated by artist Lubica Selecka ofCapistrano Beach are sensationaland even brought Slovak Republic
Consul General DanielOrszag to the cere-
mony, along witha camera crew
from hiscountry.
Were sovery proudof SlovakArtist Lu-
bica Se-lecka and
her incredibletiles telling the but-
terfly story, Orszagsaid. Even children can
understand the process because ofthe beautiful art.
Among the celebrants were for-mer HB Mayor Ralph Bauer, HBCity Councilperson MatthewHarper, Shipley Nature CenterVice President Kay Goddard, HBHuman Relations Task Force ViceChair Don Garrick, former chair-
persons of the HB Planning Com-mission Barbara Delgleize andTom Livengood, Steve Bickel ofthe HB Chamber of Commerce,plus many others.
The park at 16641 GrahamStreet in Huntington Beach andhas a donation station where peo-ple can deposit coins in a meter.Trees can be named for individu-als as anniversary, birthday andmemorials. To find out more, con-tact the HB Tree Society atwww.HBTrees.org. Visit the parkand see it for yourself. Youll be
glad you did!

Pappa Doo Run RunAs They Say At NSA:and Here Is Where
Bruce Watson of the "daily"shares research he did some tmeago about where to hide...if you
need to..."former CIA employee andNSA contractor Edward Snowden iscurrently hiding out in Hong Kong.
The ever-expanding National Secu-rity Agency PRISM scandal has raiseda host of philosophical questions aboutgovernment, freedom and privacy. Butone question has been on many people'sminds that has less to do with big ideasand more to do with practical ones:How did self-confessed leaker/whistle-blower Edward Snowden think he wasgoing to escape prosecution by UncleSam after he revealed details of the se-cret government surveillance program?
The answer, apparently, was by flee-ing to a country with no extradition
treaty with the United States: The for-mer CIA employee and NSA contractoris currently hiding out in Hong Kong.But the ex-intelligence man would havebeen smart to do a little more researchbefore going on the lam: Hong Kongmay not be quite the sanctuary he'dhoped for.
In some ways, Hong Kong is a greatplace to hide out. While technically, ithas an extradition agreement with theU.S., the treaty was signed in 1996, ayear before Great Britain transferredcontrol of Hong Kong to China. Sincethe U.S. doesn't have an extraditionagreement with China, it's possible thatSnowden may be able to stay there.Certainly, it's a better bet than his orig-inal destination, Iceland, a country thathas an unambiguous extradition pactwith the U.S.
In the grand scheme of things, how-ever, Snowden would have been betterserved heading to a country with amore clear-cut non-extradition policy.Unfortunately, most countries that re-fuse to cooperate with the U.S. govern-ment are Communist dictatorships,theocracies, failed states, or are other-wise less than ideal. But there are a fewhidden gems among them.
...Are you on the run...don't knowwhat the NSA heard on your last phonecall...or you are just scared of an RSaudit...Here are the highlights: The 5Best Countries With No Extradition...
Croatia: For the Outdoorsman
With a per-capita GDP of over$17,000, Croatia occupies that sweetspot between places that are too poor tobe safe and too expensive to be enjoy-able. Your dollars will go a long wayhere, and with miles of beaches, remotecastles, extensive caves and uninhab-ited islands, the formerly war-torn re-public has endless options for your nexthome. While a little lacking in nightlife,Croatia's extensive diving, caving andhiking opportunities make it ideal foroutdoorsmen, and its stable governmentand parliamentary republic promisethat your property -- and life -- shouldbe well protected by the rule of law.
Kazakhstan: For the 'Star Trek'Enthusiast
A Trekker with a pocketful of doughcould hardly do better than Kazakhstan.While it has a variety of terrain, thecountry is particularly famous for thesteppes, a windblown grassland wherethe descendants of the Khans drink fer-mented mare's milk and practice KhyzKuu, a traditional sport that involveschasing down maidens while on horse-back. As for cities, the capital, Astana,halves the distance between Mongoland Klingon culture, with breathtakingbuildings that seem to have jumped offthe cover of a Ray Bradbury novel.
Dubai: For the International Play-
boyWidely regarded as the Las Vegas of
the Persian Gulf, Dubai's gorgeous
buildings, vibrant nightlife and collec-tion of private islands make it the per-fect escape for the rich man withquestionable morals and a healthy dis-dain for hoi polloi. And, if you're look-ing for something a little more sedate,lesser-known Abu Dhabi is just a shortride away. Whichever way you go, theUnited Arab Emirates is a good dealright now -- property values tumbledduring the recession but are risingagain, and the country's extensive infra-structure and commercial developmentguarantee you easy access to most ofthe pleasures of home.
Western Sahara: For the Would-Be Bond Villain
Most experts view Western Sahara asthe world's longest-running failed na-tion, but we'd prefer to think of it as theworld's most functional anarchy. Mo-rocco is ostensibly in charge of theplace, but the truth is that Western Sa-hara basically occupies 103,000 squaremiles of empty, unpoliced space be-tween Morocco, Mauritania and Alge-ria. Only 600 miles (as the crow flies)from Europe, it's a convenient stagingground for any dastardly plans youmight want to cultivate. Infrastructureis rare to nonexistent, but a few billiondollars should easily fix that, and thelack of state-level oversight means thatyou won't have to deal with zoning is-sues when building your secret hideout.
Bhutan: For the Spiritual Hermit
Bhutan hasn't made much of a blipon the international tourism radar, butthe Asian "constitutional democraticmonarchy," may be the perfect choicefor the stressed-out criminal looking toget away from it all. Rejecting standardmeasures of success like GDP and taxrevenue, Bhutan has chosen to focus itsefforts on improving "Gross NationalHappiness." Among other things, thismeans tourism development is heavilyrestricted, so your sense of internalwell-being is less likely to be disturbedby the sight of high-r ise hotels or thebuzz of snowmobiles!"

Change Is (Should Be)a Matter Of Choice
IAM PRINTING THIS NOTE FORA FEW OF THE "THINKERS"(SUBSCRIBERS TO THE
LOCAL NEWS TO SEE IF IT RE-
FLECTS THE FEELINGS OF LOTOF OUR READERS.I have never heard this said as sim-
ply or as well. Class war at its best.(OR WORST)
The folks who are gettingthe free stuff don't like thefolks who are paying forthe free stuff, becausethe folks who are pay-ing for the free stuffcan no longer af-ford to pay for
both the free stuffand their ownstuff.
And the folks
who are paying forthe free stuff wantthe free stuff tostop.
And the folks whoare getting the freestuff want even morefree stuff on top of thefree stuff they are alreadygetting!
Now... the people who are forc-ing the people who pay
for the free stuff have told the peoplewho are RECEIVING the free stuffthat the people who are PAYING forthe free stuff are being mean, preju-
diced, and racist.So... the people who are GETTING
the free stuff have been convinced theyneed to hate the people who are paying
for the
free stuffby the people who are forcing somepeople to pay for their free stuff and
giving them the free stuff in the firstplace.
We have let the free stuff giving goon for so long that there are now more
people getting free stuff than payingfor the free stuff.Now understand this. All great
democracies have committed fi-nancial suicide somewhere
between 200 and 250years after being
founded.The reason?The voters figured
out they could votethemselves moneyfrom the treasury
by electing peoplewho promised togive them moneyfrom the treasury
in exchange forelecting them.The United States
officially became aRepublic in 1776, 236
years ago. The numberof people now getting free
stuff outnumbers the peoplepaying for the free stuff.Failure to change that perhaps
spells the end of our way of life aswe know it.
Change is a matter of choice.A Nation of Sheep Breeds a Govern-
ment of Wolves!TLN ~Dave Garofalo

Americans cel-ebrated Inde-pendence Day lastweek with a myr-
iad of festivities including parades,barbeques, fireworks and sportingevents intertwined with patriotismand salutes to heroes. But ESPNcolumnist Howard Bryant lamentedthe merger of sports and patriotism,railing against military flyovers,the pre-game inclusion of the armedforces, and the addition of GodBless America to The Star-Span-gled Banner" at our sporting
events.Bryant claims that the confluenceof sports and patriotism which inhis view equates with politics - is arecent phenomenon, one that beganafter 9/11. History suggests other-wise. Military flyovers date back toat least 1955 when beach races wereheld in Daytona. Every presidentsince William Howard Taft in 1910has thrown at least one ceremonialfirst pitch for Opening Day, an AllStar Game or a World Series Game.As a sign of patriotism, MLB Com-missioner Kenesaw Mountain Lan-dis volunteered to suspend MLBgames during World War II, but
President Franklin Roosevelt declined the offer, in-
sisting that it would be best for the country to keepbaseball going.
Bryant laments the elevation of servicemen andwomen, along with police and fire fighters, to hero
status at our na-tions sportingevents, prefer-ring instead tolimit hero wor-shiping to the
participating ath-letes. Heswrong on bothcounts. Nothingan athlete does
on the playingfield can be con-sidered heroicwhen comparedto what military
personnel, policeand fire fightersdo on a daily
basis.Bryant accuses
his hometownBoston sportsteams, particu-larly the Bruinsand Red Sox, ofmerging sportsand politics by
emphasizing patriotism immediately after the Boston
Marathon bombings. Yet he criticizes the teams forfailing to acknowledge what was occurring just out-side the stadium wallsduring the city's busingcrises in the 1970s and 1980s. Furthermore, Bryantsays, If the permanent inclusion of the military intosporting events is at best perilous, the addition of the
police as heroes is even worse. The role of police, es-pecially in minority communities, is hardly univer-sally agreed upon. Bryant seems to be saying thathe welcomes the mixture of sports and politics, aslong as he agrees with the politics.
Patriotism isnt about politics. And you dont haveto believe the militarys expenditure of a trillion dollarsand the loss of thousands of lives in the wars in Iraqand Afghanistan are justified to respect and appreciate
the sacrifices of the men and women in uniform.Bryant ends his rant against patriotism by saying,[I]t should be remembered that the greatest freedom-- fought and died for by so many of the young menand women trotted out to throw out the first pitch --is dissent. On that point, Bryant and I are in com-
plete agreement. Thats why Ill take my ballgamewith a dose of patriotism anytime.

4 Marketing Tactics SoObvious Youre Probably
Not Doing ThemSara Nash adds some com-mon sense to our all toocommon need to market some-thing to someone.
This is a post by Sara Nash;Sara earned her degree in PublicRelations from Penn State Uni-versity. From there, she workeda PR agency in Boston before
joining the PR and Social Mediateam at Vistaprint.
She says:..."There are a num-ber of ways beyond email anddirect mail to market your busi-ness. Some of the most effectivemethods can happen withoutpeople even realizing it! Trysome of these less-obvious waysto spread the word about yourbusiness.
1. Whether you are out onthe town or attending a net-
working event, simply talk-ing to others can be a greatway to market your busi-ness. Inevitably your com-pany will come up inconversation, and it will be anice way to show your pas-sion while being able to an-swer any questions.2. Promotional products are
functional, useful productsthat can double as tools forgetting your business seen. Ifyour logo is on your cell-phone case or tote bag, forinstance, maybe someonewill be intrigued enough toask about it.3. If people read about you
in their local paper, they maynot realize it was intentional(and maybe it wasnt!). Ob-viously it would be great forthe media to write about youwithout prompting it, but itcant hurt to pitch your storyto local media to help sharewith the public.4. Whether it is an event, ateam, an award, etc., spon-sorships can accomplish afew things. You will likely
be able to get your logo on at-shirt, in the program, andmore, but you will also behelping out a great cause!
Have you used any of thesemethods to market your busi-ness? Tell us how it went in thecomments below, or tell us aboutother unexpected marketingtechniques you have used!"

it was, Id assumed wed pretty much heard theend of it. In case you missed it, heres the short
recap:
When 8th grade Jared Marcum got dressedfor school on Thursday he says he had noidea that his pro-Second Amendment shirtwould initiate what he calls a fight over hisFirst Amendment rights.
It was the image of a gun printed on Jaredst-shirt that sparked a dispute between a LoganMiddle School teacher and Jared, that endedwith Jared suspended, arrested and facingtwo charges, obstruction and disturbing theeducation process, on his otherwise spotlessrecord.
By the end of the story, Jared was back inschool and his parents were working with localauthorities to get this incredibly stupid exercisein oppression off of his record. Thatshould have been the end of it,but apparently the localpowers that be are plan-ning to take this situa-tion to its illogicalextreme.
Suspendedand arrestedafter refusing tochange his NRA shirt.
Today, 14-year-old JaredMarcum appeared before ajudge and was officiallycharged with obstructing anofficer.
A $500 fine and up to ayear in jail, thats thepenalty that Jared could face, now that ajudge has allowed the prosecution to moveforward with its obstructing an officer chargeagainst him.
Me, Im more of a fighter and so is Jared andeventually were going to get through this,
Jareds father Allen Lardieri said. I dontthink it should have ever gotten this far.
Jareds dad is being a lot more calm and rea-sonable about this than I think I could manage,but thats probably to the boys benefit. At thispoint, the defense is still treating it as a mis-interpretation of school policy, and not somesort of civil rights violation. But if it goes muchfurther, its not hard to imagine them bringingthat aspect of it up in court. And if they do, thestate is going to have a hard time sending Jared
up the river. Our resident legal analyst, DougMataconis of Outside the Beltway, has alreadydone the digging and found that the SupremeCourt came down on Jareds side some timeago.
In Tinker v. Des Moines Independent Com-munity School District 393 U.S. 501 (1969),the Court deal with the case of a group ofstudents who were disciplined for takingpart in a protest related to the VietnamWar by wearing black armbands toschool. In its decision, the Court heldthat the students right to express theirpolitical beliefs as protected by the FirstAmendment outweighed any argumentthe school could make that its actionswere necessary to keep discipline andorder in the school:
The school officials banned and sought topunish petitioners for a silent, passive expres-sion of opinion, unaccompanied by any dis-order or disturbance on the part of
petitioners. There is here no evi-dence whatever of petition-
ers interference, actual ornascent, with the
schools work or ofcollision with the
rights of otherstudents to besecure and to
be let alone. Ac-cordingly, this
case does not con-
cern speech or action thatintrudes upon the work ofthe schools or the rights ofother students.
The full details of thecourts decision, alongwith Dougs comments
on this piece of legal insanity, are available atthe link. In the meantime, I suppose wellhave to deal with yet another side show as thisall drags out. You might think that in this en-lightened age of free speech, something likethis would never come up, but apparentlyyoud be wrong. I can understand the officials
at one relatively small middle school flyingoff the beam for a bit and blundering into thissort of error, but once the public spotlight wason the case, one would hope that the legalsystem would notice and shut it down. Butnow theyre setting themselves up for publicembarrassment on a national level. And forthe cherry on top, this is all happening on JoeManchins home turf, just as hes facing an-other battle in the public opinion polls overhis gun control mistakes.
Break out the popcorn."

BY A 15 yr. OLD SCHOOL KID who got an A+ forthis entry (TOTALLY AWESOME)!
Since the Pledge of Allegiance and The Lord's Prayerare not allowed in most public schools anymore becausethe word 'God' is mentioned..... A kid in Arizona wrote
the attached NEW School prayer:
"New Pledge of Allegiance"
Now I sit me down in schoolWhere praying is against the ruleFor this great nation under GodFinds mention of Him very odd.If scripture now the class recites,
It violates the Bill of Rights.And anytime my head I bow
Becomes a Federal matter now.
Our hair can be purple, orange or green,That's no offense; it's a freedom scene..The law is specific, the law is precise.
Prayers spoken aloud are a serious vice.For praying in a public hall
Might offend someone with no faith at all..In silence alone we must meditate,
God's name is prohibited by the state.We're allowed to cuss and dress like freaks,And pierce our noses, tongues and cheeks...
They've outlawed guns, but FIRST the Bible.To quote the Good Book makes me liable.
We can elect a pregnant Senior Queen,And the 'unwed daddy,' our Senior King.
It's 'inappropriate' to teach right from wrong,
We're taught that such 'judgments' do not belong..We can get our condoms and birth controls,Study witchcraft, vampires and totem poles..But the Ten Commandments are not allowed,
No word of God must reach this crowd.It's scary here I must confess,
When chaos reigns the school's a mess.So, Lord, this silent plea I make:
Should I be shot; My soul please take!Amen

Dan Fastenberg (Aol jobs) did the research and here is what he has to say..."For
years agriculture and manufacturing have been stalling while service sectors
have been adding jobs. And that shift will be "cemented" by 2020, according
to Nicole Smith, a senior economist at the Georgetown University Center on Educationand the Workforce. Smith is a co-author of a new study that identifies the fastest-grow-
ing industries and it projects that the top five will be service industries, such as health
care and hospitality.
Using state and national data, the report by Smith, Anthony Carnevale, the center's
director, and Jeff Strohl, the center's research director, projects that a total of 55 million
new jobs will be created from 2010 to 2020. Twenty-four million of the jobs are ex-
pected to be newly created positions. The rest are expected to open as baby boomers
retire.
"If the U.S. Congress can deal with budgetary challenges, we are on schedule for re-
covery," Carnevale said in a news release accompanying the report. The catch, however,
is that there may not be enough qualified workers to fill the openings. According to the
Georgetown study, 5 million of the total job vacancies will remain open throughout the
decade as Americans fail to receive the proper educational and technical training.
Here are the 10 fastest-growing industries:
10. Private Education Services

water safety
Thunder and lightning stormshappen all the time. But didyou know that lightning
strikes and lightning fires occurmost often in the summer? Knowwhat to do to keep you and yourfamily safe when it does strike!
Outdoor Safety If you can hear thunder, you are
within striking distance of lightning.Look for shelter inside a home, largebuilding, or a hard-topped vehicleright away. Do not go under tall treesfor shelter. There is no place outsidethat is safe during a thunderstorm.Wait at least 30 minutes after the lastthunder before leaving your shelter.
Stay away from windows anddoors.
If you are in or on open water, goto land and seek shelter immediately.
If you feel your hair stand on end,that means lightning is about to
strike. Squat low to the ground onthe balls of your feet; place yourhands over your ears and yourhead between your knees. Makeyourself the smallest target pos-sible and minimize your contact
with the ground. Do not lie flat onthe ground. This is a last resort whena building or hard-topped vehicle isnot available.
If a person is struck by lightning,call 9-1-1 and get medical care imme-diately. Lightning strike victims carryno electrical charge; attend to themimmediately. Check their breathing,heartbeat, and pulse. CPR may beneeded.

Frank Gormlie shares azinger...or is it a stinger..."SanDiego lifeguards are warning oceangoers to be on the alert for stingrays
in the water. Theres been an in-crease this season of the bottom-feeders who swim close to shore.And theres been an increase in at-tacks at local and regionalbeaches, according to officials.
For example, Huntington Beachlast year witnessed an all-timerecord number of stingray injuries,with more than 400 seen by No-vember.
Instructions of how to avoidstingrays was given by LifeguardSupervisor Kevin Pearsall, who de-scribed that its important to shuffleyour feet when entering the water.He said:
As you enter the water, onto thesand, you kind of shuffle, you keepthe sand moving, the area moving
as they hear you coming and see
you coming. Theyre going to flee.They do not want contact with usin anyway.
If you are stung by a stingray
it can be very painful and bleed.But there is no need to rush to theER or be seen by a medical doctor.
Simply immerse the affectedarea into a pail of very hot water ora bathtub with hot water. After
about anhour, the s t i n g dissolvesand thepain dis-appears.However,a barb leftin the skincan get in-fected.
So, forinstance,if you arestung on
the foot or let a likely area whilewadding in shallow water placethe foot into a pail of water that isas hot as you can stand. Keep itthere immersed for an hour.
When I worked at the BeachArea Community Clinic in the1980s in Mission Beach, we wouldhave numerous patients come induring the summer with stings.And what we would we do is sim-ply what I just recommended; wewould have the patient sit with theirfoot in the pail of very hot water for
about an hour."

There are few accessories thatcan say as much about a woman
upon first glance as her sunglasses. Is she glamorous?A little mysterious? Too cool? A total tomboy? Youmight say they reveal as much as they conceal...
We all love to envision ourselves in a fantasy lifewhen we try on sunglasses. (Or is that just me?) Youcan be a modern-day Jackie O. in oversize blackframes or the classic cool girl in metal-frame aviators.The only bummer about trying to get into characterwith a variety of shades is that not every style willlook it's best on every face.
Knowing a little about which styles and frames bestflatter your face shape will help you feel confident
when you're going incognito. (Or just stepping out torun errands.)
So how to do you choose the right sunglasses foryour face shape? The defining features that help nameyour face shape are your forehead, cheekbones andchin. Your face might be round, square, heart-shaped,long or oval-each of which has a stylish and summer-ready style perfect for inspiring your own fantasy
character. Credit: Courtesy of Lifestyle Mirror

Dear EarthTalk: Iunderstand that pet
cats prey on lots ofbirds and other "neighbor-
hood" wildlife, but isn't it cruel toforce felines to live indoors only? And isnt human en-croachment the real issue for bird populations, not a fewopportunistic cats? ~ Jason Braunstein, Laos, NM
While it is true that habitat loss as a result of humanencroachment is a primary threat to birds andwildlife of all kinds, outdoor cats are no doubt exacer-bating the loss of biodiversity as their numbers swell andthey carry on their instinctual business of hunting.
The Smithsonian Conservation Biology InstitutesPeter Marra estimates that outdoor cats in the UnitedStates, counting both pets and feral animals, kill up to3.7 billion birds each yearalong with up to 20 billionother small mammals. Researchers estimate that roughly114 million cats live in the contiguous U.S., 84 millionof them pets and the rest feraland that as many as 70percent of pet cats spend some time roaming outside and
hunting.Cats are a nonnative species, reminds Marra, addingthat they often target native species and can transformplaces that would normally harbor many young birdsinto sinks that drain birds from neighboring popula-tions. As a result of this ongoing predation, many en-vironmentalists and animal lovers think cats should stayinside. The big message is responsible pet ownership,Marra says. He acknowledges that feral cats may be thebigger problem, but pet cats still catch as many as twobillion wild an-imals a year.
The non-profit AmericanHumane Asso-ciation reportsthat there areseveral ways to
keep indoor cats happy even though they are restrictedfrom chasing and hunting wildlife. Getting Fluffy a com-
panion (another cat or even a dog) is a good way to providean outlet for play. Likewise, interactive toys, scratchingposts, cat perches and other amenitiescheck with anywell-stocked local pet storecan make the indoor environ-
ment a stimulating yet safe one for housebound cats andshould serve to prevent stir-crazy behavior.Meanwhile, another non-profit, the American Bird Con-
servancy (ABC), adds another reason why cat ownersmight want to think about restricting their pets territory toinside: Research shows that indoor cats live significantlylonger lives than their free-roaming counterparts. Life for
outdoor cats is risky, reports the group. They can get hitby cars; attacked by dogs, other cats, coyotes or wildlife;contract fatal diseases, such as rabies, feline distemper, orfeline immunodeficiency virus; get lost, stolen, or poi-soned; or suffer during severe weather conditions.
But the fact that feral cat populations have gotten so largein recent years makes the problem that much more vexing.Researchers concede that efforts to catch and either neuteror euthanize feral cats have proven ineffective given theirbooming populations, leaving cat owners wonderingwhether jeopardizing Fluffy's mental health for the sake ofsaving a few birds is really even worthwhile.

T
oday, more than 12,000 U.S. wine shopshave a presence on the web. But just 14states allow consumers to order wine from
out-of-state retailers.Eleven states prohibit residents from ordering
wine from out-of-state wineries. Four states banthe sale of wine on Sundays. The overwhelmingmajority of Americans support supermarket wine sales,but 15 states force consumers to purchase their wine in adedicated liquor store. In another 15 states, it's illegal tobring your own bottle of wineinto a restaurant -- even if therestaurant owner is okay with it.
Like virtually all America'sliquor laws, these restrictionstrace their origins to Prohibition.Today, these laws simply harmconsumers and enrich special in-terests.
Fortunately, there's a new or-ganization that's fighting these
anti-consumer wine laws. Calledthe American Wine ConsumerCoalition (www.WineCon-sumers.org), the group deservesevery wine lover's support.
When Prohibition was re-pealed 80 years ago, states weregiven the authority to regulatethe "transportation or importa-tion" of liquor within their bor-ders. At the insistence of amotley crew of interest groups, states imposed an assort-ment of rules.
A top priority was weakening producers, because be-fore prohibition, teetotalers and law enforcement alikebelieved they wielded too much power. Temperance ad-vocates blamed producers for the ills of drunkenness; po-lice officers associated producers with organized crime.
Lawmakers answered this call in one of two ways.
They either took control of the sale and/or distribution ofalcohol or created a "wholesaler tier" to sit between pro-ducers and retailers.
Today, just Pennsylvania and Utah maintain total con-trol on alcohol sales. Inthose two states, gov-ernment officials decidewhich liquor brands aresold, how much ischarged, and wherethose products can bepurchased.
Virtually every otherstate depends on a
wholesale tier throughwhich most alcoholmust pass. This is essen-tially a state-mandatedmiddleman.
As one might guess,wholesaling is big busi-ness. Together, the na-tion's two largestwholesalers had rev-enues of more than $14billion last year. So it's
no surprise that the wholesaling industry fights hardagainst efforts to undermine its presence.
Consider direct-to-consumer wine sales.About 20 years ago, Americans started developing a
taste for high-end wines, typically from California. Manyconsumers started ordering directly from producers.
Such transactions cut out wholesalers, so they spear-headed a campaign to prohibit winery-to-consumer ship-
ping. Consumers re-sponded with lawsuits,and in 2005, the Supreme
Court ruled that state law-makers could only pro-hibit direct shipping fromout-of-state wineries ifthey blocked wineries intheir states from ship-ping out of state. The 11
states that still prohibit
