Harry & Bess
Tuesday, July 6th, 2010Harry Truman was a different kind of President. He probably made as many, or more important decisions regarding our nation’s history as any of the other 42 Presidents preceding him. However, a measure of his greatness may rest on what he did after he left the White House .Editors Note: I have a viral email archive site, Web PickUps, that is primarily a comedy site. Perhaps this should be included there as it is circulating as an email, but this epistle does not fit the mold there.
The only asset he had when he died was the house he lived in, which was in Independence Missouri . His wife had inherited the house from her mother and father and other than their years in the White House , they lived their entire lives there.
When he retired from office in 1952, his income was a U.S. Army pension reported to have been $13,507.72 a year. Congress, noting that he was paying for his stamps and personally licking them, granted him an ‘allowance’ and, later, a retroactive pension of $25,000 per year.
After President Eisenhower was inaugurated, Harry and Bess drove home to Missouri by themselves. There was no Secret Service following them.When offered corporate positions at large salaries, he declined, stating, “You don’t want me. You want the office of the President , and that doesn’t belong to me. It belongs to the American people and it’s not for sale.”
Even later, on May 6, 1971, when Congress was preparing to award him the Medal of Honor on his 87th birthday, he refused to accept it, writing, “I don’t consider that I have done anything which should be the reason for any award, Congressional or otherwise.”
As president he paid for all of his own travel expenses and food.
Modern politicians have found a new level of success in cashing in on the Presidency , resulting in untold wealth. Today, many in Congress also have found a way to become quite wealthy while enjoying the fruits of their offices. Political offices are now for sale. (sic. Illinois )
Good old Harry Truman was correct when he observed, “My choices in life were either to be a piano player in a whore house or a politician. And to tell the truth, there’s hardly any difference! ”
I say dig him up and clone him!!
This is not sent for discussion. If you agree, forward it. If you don’t, delete it. I don’t want to know one way or the other. By me forwarding it, you know how I feel.
Enjoy life now-it has an expiration date!

An Idiot’s Guide To Resolving Conflict In Marriage
Tuesday, March 30th, 2010by Ruth Purple
Marital conflict is an unavoidable element of any marriage. A marital union that has not been afflicted by discord is like a teabag that has not been dipped in hot water-you really don’t know how strong a tea it would make to make. While conflict is often seen negatively, not all conflicts are detrimental.
In the work environment, for example, clashes in opinions allow two people to see things from the other’s point of view, resulting in a fresh perspective. This leads to a dialogue that provides a venue for brainstorming which, in turn, could lead to resolution of the disagreement. Change can take place, and with it, growth.
Similarly, marital discord is essential to keep the marriage from stagnating. The manner in which a couple handles dissension spells the difference between a shaky marriage and a sturdy one. What are some constructive ways to approach marital conflict? First, recognize that your spouse is a unique individual with a different set of values, needs, styles, perceptions, and goals.
When some of these are not met, dissatisfaction sets in; dissatisfaction, when not addressed, is a breeding ground for quarrelsome thoughts. Whenever a conflict arises, perceive it as your partner’s way of communicating his or her discontent. Strive to see beyond the tantrum and really listen to what is being said.
By doing this, you gain an understanding of the situation and avert irreparable damage caused by fighting fire with fire. Second, let the steam out. While mulling it over can be helpful in organizing your thoughts and expressing them better, letting conflict simmer for too long is just asking for trouble.
A pot left on the stove, even on the lowest of fire, will eventually boil over and the resulting spillage may burn seriously. A helpful strategy is to set an agreed moment to sit down together and tackle the problem. On the other hand, take care not to let every single differences in opinion escalate into discord-that would just be a waste of precious time and effort.
Third, do not bury it. Most women-ok, some men too-take the silent treatment into new depths. They loathe confrontation and would rather wallow in their resentment preferably in the sanctuary of the marital bed. Asking them what the matter is will only be met with a blistering “nothing”, or worse, dagger looks.
It would be best for the reasonable spouse to let a ‘tomb-er’ lie in the grave for a while; any effort to draw her out will prove futile if she is not ready to be resurrected. After a while, try coaxing her out with little acts of kindness-a cup of tea usually does wonders.

with the tea couldn’t hurt!
Fourth, learn the art of compromise. Giving up the prerogative to be always right is better if it means harmony between spouses. When you take time to really listen to your spouse, you might be astonished to find that his point of view is just as valid as your own.
Seeing things from a different angle can foster new ideas and makes you more receptive to various ways of resolving the issue at hand. So, now and again, try getting off the moral high horse-you may just like the view from the ground. Last, resist the temptation to be a chronicler.
It is so easy to resort to mucking around with the muddy past. Nit-picking on your spouse’s previous shortcomings will only complicate matters and postpone resolution of the current marital conflict. Stick to the problem at hand, seek to resolve it, and once resolved, put it in the bin-reduce but don’t recycle.
As we can see, conflicts can do good for a marriage. Handled right, it can cultivate honesty and understanding between spouses which deepen the relationship. So, the next time you feel like boiling over, boil the kettle instead and see how strong a tea your marriage makes.

Tentatively Ascribed to Natural Rubber is Expected to Re-up
Tuesday, March 16th, 2010At present, natural rubber has been the main contract of 1001, the key to an integer points close to 20,000. The author believes that the basic trend of rising natural rubber has not changed, the fundamentals are still the better, if effectively break through 20000, this will usher in a wave of accelerating the highs.
The financial tsunami, after the baptism, our country has taken a series in order to stimulate economic recovery for the purpose of macro policies, in a positive fiscal policy and loose monetary policy, appropriate support, in the first half of China’s economy has shown a steady recovery trend. Judging from the recent official release in July focused on the major economic data we can see that China’s economy in the second half of the “start” in stabilizing the momentum continues, and this trend becomes clear. Of natural rubber as an important industrial raw materials, the positive economic environment at home and abroad to the good background, the market demand, the price steadily rising.
Rubber in the automotive industry’s largest consumer groups, which flourish and bring the tire manufacturing progress. This year, China has taken the auto industry, including the car tax reduction, auto go to the countryside, speed up old car is scrapped, car “trade in” and a series of initiatives, effectively promote the sales of China’s booming auto industry, is also a strong impetus to the rapid recovery of the tire industry.
In previous years, relatively light vehicle sales in July this year, in July, car sales in previous years, a change the tunnel, out of a strong off season is not short market, the third consecutive month, sales remained at 5 months more than 1 million level. July, automotive production 1.1096 million, a decline of 3.77%, an increase of 52.15%; auto sales 1.0856 million, a decline of 4.95%, an increase of 63.57%. From January to July, auto sales reached 7.1009 million, respectively, and 7.1844 million, an increase of 20.23% and 23.38%. Tires, tire production in China in July rose 6.5%, reaching 5,718 million. From January to July’s 4.9% increase in tire production, reaching 365.6 million. The above figures show that China’s rubber consumption demand has continued to rebound.
In addition, the current popular interest in Sino US tire “special security case” continues to heat up. Tire in the face of China’s rapidly expanding U.S. market situation, the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) once again moved out of the magic weapon of tariff barriers, put forward China’s passenger car, light truck tire with the Chinese system of special tariffs imposed three year program, its proportion respectively 55%, 45% and 35% high. If the above mentioned “special protection case” passed, China’s tire companies will face huge losses. At present, China’s government and industry associations to provide sufficient defense, and a resolute attitude, a positive appearance at all costs, to win this trade “special protection case” a great possibility.
In the spot, the suspension tight spot supplies, as well as strong demand impact of buyers entering since August, Thailand, No. 3 tobacco piece rubber (RSS3) shipment price of 198 208 cents kg range shock; domestic e commerce center spot Quote in 17900 18010 yuan ton fluctuated between positive macro face frequent, emotion fueled speculation the spot market, “rise in the price,” 1. In addition, according to Singapore, sources said, the main producing countries affected by affected by switching to planting of the original production in the region will be reduced by 2011 is expected to reduce the world’s natural rubber production, which also raised expectations on rubber prices.
The recent Typhoon “Morak,” is expected to affect Vietnam and southern China’s natural rubber production, which gives some support Hujiao prices, boost the confidence of investors have a certain effect.
Meanwhile, the international crude oil and the dollar will have an impact on the trend of rubber. Because of natural rubber to synthetic rubber alternatives to crude oil as the main raw material, two types of tire rubber in the production ratio is almost accounted for about half of the total volume, therefore, natural rubber and crude oil has a strong linkage between the nature. Crude oil stabilized at around 70 dollars, to support the formation of rubber prices. In addition, if the dollar index, as expected, general long term into the downstream channel, will increase inflation expectations, promoting commodity prices.
Furthermore, since 2009, investors tend to the stock market as a leading indicator of economic performance, from which oil demand was informed that the position, most of the time by the crude oil price movements, influenced by movements in the stock market. U.S. two day meeting on interest rates, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) announced that the maintenance of 0 to 0.25% range of the current benchmark interest rate unchanged, and that interest rates will remain low over an extended period. U.S. stocks rose sharply and the dollar fell, which together contributed to sharply higher crude oil, but, EIA released last week, stocks rose 2.52 million barrels of crude oil of the report, oil prices rose slightly reduced, the follow up continue to focus on the U.S. crude oil trend.
“Little Lotus was exposed sharp corner”, rubber Quotes triggered the first wave to start the market sought after emotions, is expected to do more restless kinetic energy savings, the re opening speed up space.

Cigar Humidification – How to Keep Your Cigars in Perfect Condition
Monday, March 15th, 2010Cigar smoking has become more than just a past time for cigar enthusiasts, to most it has become a lifestyle. In fact, most enthusiasts have created their own rituals that they follow every time they light a cigar. Cigar smoking is, to most enthusiasts, is an art form which is why each time a person lights up a cigar should be a perfect smoking experience. To make each smoking experience perfect, you should definitely know how to keep your cigars as fresh as the day you opened them.
This is why it is important that you invest in a cigar humidor that will store your and protect your cigars. By storing your cigars in a humidor, you keep your cigars at a regulated temperature and moisture, and as an effect you maintain the flavor of the cigar. Generally, a cigar is at its best when it is stored at around 68 and 70 degrees Fahrenheit with 65-70% humidity.
The correct temperature required for the storing of cigars has been long debated by enthusiasts. Some of them insist that a slight change in the temperature should be counteracted by a change in humidity. They believe that every degree that the temperature decreases merits a 1% increase in the humidity and vice-versa. But this is a myth. The humidity levels should always be kept at 65-70% at all times. This is the only way to maintain the flavor, integrity and color of your favorite cigars.
When looking for a cigar humidor, there are some factors that you should definitely always keep in mind. One of the most important things you should keep in mind is that the cigar humidor should keep the moisture inside the cigar humidor. If you buy a cigar humidor that is neither snug nor secure then it can cause more damage than good to your cigars. If you choose a cigar humidor that has a tight lid, then it will also prevent outside elements from affecting the cigars inside your humidor. It is better that you choose a cigar humidor that has a smooth interior, that way you can prevent snagging cigars (or your fingers). It should also be lined with Spanish cedar. It will help you regulate the moisture inside of the cigar humidor as Spanish cedar absorbs the excess moisture inside the humidor.
There are many materials that can be used in the interior of the cigar humidor, but the best material to use is Spanish cedar.
Lastly, it is important that you measure the size of your cigars before buying the cigar humidor. Nothing can be more frustrating than buying a cigar humidor only to find out that your cigars don’t fit in them. There are many kinds and sizes of cigars and humidors available in the market which is why you should measure your cigars before buying a cigar humidor for your favorite cigars.
Once you buy a cigar humidor, you should start seasoning it at once so that you can preserve your cigars for a very long time.
