Going to the dentist is very expensive, but if we want to have healthy teeth it's necessary.Some people need to go to the Dentist but just can't afford to go.

 A Florida man was arrested recently for performing dental work in his filthy garage without a license.

The man performed all kind of dental work from filling dentures, to making a full set of false teeth for $200 dollar, compared to the normal cost of over $2,000.

Even though the place was filthy and I am sure that people knew the risk that they were taking by going somewhere other then a licensed dentist, it didn't matter to them because they didn't have enough money to afford to go anywhere else.

His patient were very upset when he was arrested because they said he was not a criminal and that he had saved them a lot of money, he was helping the elderly that live on a fixed income. It's sad that our elderly have to do this.
 
 

Have you ever been down on your luck and need help? You might not have, but we have many families that need assistance and have to use food stamps.Lets hope that we never need to. The Govenor of Oregon is seeing how hard it is to live off $21.00 a week

 
A group of rapists and date rapists in prison were interviewed on what
they look for in a potential victim and here are some interesting facts
1) The first thing men look for in a potential victim is hairstyle.
They are most likely to go after a woman with a ponytail, bun, braid or
other hairstyle that can easily be grabbed. They are also likely to go
after a woman with long hair. Women with short hair are not common
targets.

2) The second thing men look for is clothing. They will look for women
who's clothing is easy to remove quickly . Many of them carry scissors
around specifically to cut clothing.

3) They also look for women on their cell phone, searching through
their purse, or doing other activities while walking because they are
off-guard and can be easily overpowered.

4) Men are most likely to attack & rape in the early morning, between
5:00a.m. and 8:30a.m.

5) The number one place women are abducted from/attacked is grocery
store parking lots. Number two: is office parking lots/garages. Number
three: is public restrooms.

6) The thing about these men is that they are looking to grab a woman
and quickly move her to another location where they don't have to worry
about getting caught.

7) Only 2% said they carried weapons because rape carries a 3-5 year
sentence but rape with a weapon is 15-20 years.

8) If you put up any kind of a fight at all, they get discouraged
because it only takes a minute or two for them to realize that going after
you isn't worth it because it will be time-consuming.

9) These men said they would not pick on women who have umbrellas, or
other similar objects that can be used from a distance, in their hands.

Keys are not a deterrent because you have to get really close to the
attacker to use them as a weapon. So, the idea is to convince these guys
you're not worth it.

10) Several defense mechanisms he taught us are: If someone is
following behind you on a street or in a garage or with you in an elevator or
stairwell, look them in the face and ask them a question, like what time
is it, or make general small talk: "I can't believe it is so cold out
here,"
"we're in for a bad winter." Now you've seen their face and could
identify them in a line-up; you lose appeal as a target.

11) If someone is coming toward you , hold out your hands in front of
you and yell STOP or STAY BACK ! Most of the rapists this man talked to
said they'd leave a woman alone if she yelled or showed that she would
not be afraid to fight back.
Again, they are looking for an EASY target.

12) If you carry pepper spray (this instructor was a huge advocate of
it and carries it with him wherever he goes), yell I HAVE PEPPER SPRAY
and holding it out will be a deterrent.

13) If someone grabs you, you can't beat them with strength but you can
by outsmarting them If you are grabbed around the waist from behind,
pinch the attacker either under the arm (between the elbow and armpit) OR
in the upper inner thigh VERY VERY HARD. One woman in a class this guy
taught told him she used the underarm pinch on a guy who was trying to
date rape her and was so upset she broke through the skin and tore out
muscle strands - the guy needed stitches. Try pinching yourself in
those places as hard as you can stand it - it hurts.

14) After the initial hit, always GO for the GROIN. I know from a
particularly unfortunate experience that if you slap a guy's parts it is
extremely painful. You might think that you'll anger the guy and make him
want to hurt you more, but the thing these rapists told our instructor
is that they want a woman who will not cause a lot of trouble. Start
causing trouble and he's out of there.

15) When the guy puts his hands up to you, grab his first two fingers
and bend them back as far as possible with as much pressure pushing down
on them as possible. The instructor did it to me without using much
pressure, and I ended up on my knees and both knuckles cracked audibly.

16) Of course the things we always hear still apply. Always be aware of
your surroundings, take someone with you if you can and if you see any
odd behavior, don't dismiss it, go with your instincts!!!

You may feel a little silly at the time, but you'd feel much worse if
the guy really was trouble.

 Tip from Tae Kwon Do: The elbow is the strongest point on your body.
If you are close enough to use it do.
.If you are ever thrown into the trunk of a car, kick out the back
tail lights and stick your arm out the hole and start waving like crazy.
The driver won't see you, but everybody else will. This has saved lives.

 If someone is in the car with a gun to your head DO NOT DRIVE OFF,
repeat: DO NOT DRIVE OFF! Instead gun the engine and speed into
anything, wrecking the car. Your Air Bag will save you If the person is in the
back seat they will get the worst of it. As soon as the car crashes
bail out and run. It is better than having them find your body in a remote
location.

 If you are parked next to a big van, enter your car from the
passenger door. Most serial killers attack their victims by pulling them into
their vans while the women are attempting to get into their cars.

Look at the car parked on the driver's side of your vehicle, and
the passenger side. If a male is sitting alone in the seat nearest your
car, you may want to walk back into the mall, or work, and get a
guard/policeman to walk you back out.

IT IS ALWAYS BETTER TO BE SAFE THAN SORRY. (And better paranoid than
dead.)

 ALWAYS take the elevator instead of the stairs. (Stairwells are
horrible places to be alone and the perfect crime spot. This is especially
true at NIGHT!)
 Another Safety Point: Someone just told me that her friend heard a
crying baby on her porch the night before last, and she called the
police because it was late and she thought it was weird. The police told her
"Whatever you do, DO NOT open the door."

The lady then said that it sounded like the baby had crawled near a
window, and she was worried that it would crawl to the street and get run
over. The policeman said, "We already have a unit on the way, whatever
you do, DO NOT open the door." He told her that they think a serial
killer has a baby's cry recorded and uses it to coax women out of their
homes thinking that someone dropped off a baby. He said they have not
verified it , but have had several calls by women saying that they hear
baby's cries outside their doors when they're home alone at night.

Please pass this on and DO NOT open the door for a crying baby
----This should be taken seriously because the Crying Baby theory was
mentioned on America 's Most Wanted this past Saturday when they
profiled the serial killer in Louisiana 

 

There have been a lot of news lately about the death of cats and dogs due to tainted food, and that saddens me because we love our animals. They say that the tainted food came from China.

Now I find out that we need to start worrying about the food the we eat. Did you know that an incredible amount of food that we eat every day is grown, processed and packaged in China.

The Fish and chips or breaded shrimp that you buy at the supermarket or eat at the fancy restaurants, A large portion  comes from China as well.

Pollution are at critical levels in the production areas in China, and because of the greed here for all things cheap and the companies making hugh profits, the US is bringing in tons of  products  from there and other countries.

WE don't have enough inspectors to check the hugh amounts of food coming in, plus for some reason they are being lax when it comes to checking chinese products, something to do with the money and control that the Chinese Govt. has over our beautiful country.

The top exporters of food to the US are Malaysia, New Zealand, China, India an the Netherlands.
