Cell Phones and Brain Cancer: Is There a Link? By Shauna Arthurs
With the recent announcement by WHO (world health organisation) about the potential dangers of cell phone radiation, we are all naturally concerned, especially those of us who use cell phones regularly and/or who have kids with cell phones. What is safe, we wonder, in terms of use, cell phone type and exposure? Are some cell phones safer than others, and are there ways in which we can limit the dangers by changing our usage patterns?

Pediatric Brain Tumors and Brain Cancer Alter the Definition of Normal
For most of us, today will begin like any other day. We'll sip our coffee, skim the morning paper, drop the kids off at school, and perform the normal rituals that make up our daily lives. The good, the bad, and yes, even the somewhat ugly; we'll tackle it all with confidence and a sense of comfort, knowing that tomorrow, as routine as it may be, we'll get to do it all over again.

English exam
It was the final examination for an introductory English course at the local university. Like many such freshman courses, it was designed to weed out new students, having over 700 students in the class!
The examination was two hours long and exam booklets were provided. The professor was very strict and told the class that any exam that was not on his desk in exactly two hours would not be accepted and and the student would fail. A half hour into the exam, a student came rushing in and asked the professor for an exam booklet.

A Student’s Request for Extra Money
A student called up his Mom one evening from his college and asked her for some money because he was broke.
His Mother said, “Sure, sweetie. I will send you some money. You also left your economics book here when you visited two week ago. Do you want me to send that up too?”
<--more-->
“Uhh, oh yeah, OK.” responded the kid.
So, his Mom wrapped the book along with the checks up in a package, kissed Dad goodbye and went to the post office to mail the money and the book. When she got back, Dad asked, ”Well how much did you give the boy this time?”
“Oh, I wrote two checks, one for $20 and the other for $1,000.”
“That’s $1020!!!” yelled Dad, ”Are you going crazy???”
“I taped the $20 check to the cover of his book, but I put the $1,000 one somewhere between the pages in chapter 15!”

Collecting Asian Art - Porcelain By Isadore Chait
Porcelain is an integral thread of the fabric of Chinese culture. In the 14th century, while Europeans were still eating from low-fired earthenware or wooden dishes, the Chinese had developed the first underglazed porcelain. They were using cobalt, originally imported from Iran during the Yuan period (1279-1368 A.D.), to add exceptional shades of color, from pale blue to nearly black, to translucent white wares. As soon as Marco Polo brought back a few samples, the world couldn't
