Rules of life by Bill Gates
Bill Gates recently gave a speech at a High School about 11 things they did not and will not learn in school. He talks about how feel-good, politically correct teachings created a generation of kids with no concept of reality and how this concept set them up for failure in the real world.
Rule 1 : Life is not fair - get used to it!
Rule 2 : The world won't care about your self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something BEFORE you feel good about yourself.
Rule 3 : You will NOT make $60,000 a year right out of high school. You won't be a vice-president with a car phone until you earn both.
Rule 4 : If you think your teacher is tough, wait till you get a boss.
Rule 5 : Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your Grandparents had a different word for burger flipping: they called it opportunity.
Rule 6 : If you mess up, it's not your parents' fault, so don't whine about your mistakes, learn from them.
Rule 7 : Before you were born, your parents weren't as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes and listening to you talk about how cool you thought you were. So before you save the rain forest from the parasites of your parent's generation, try delousing the closet in your own room.
Rule 8 : Your school may have done away with winners and losers, but life HAS NOT. In some schools, they have abolished failing grades and they'll give you as MANY TIMES as you want to get the right answer. This doesn't bear the slightest resemblance to ANYTHING in real life.
Rule 9 : Life is not divided into semesters. You don't get summers off and very few employers are interested in helping you FIND YOURSELF. Do that on your own time.
Rule 10 : Television is NOT real life. In real life people actually have to leave the coffee shop and go to jobs.
Rule 11 : Be nice to nerds. Chances are you'll end up working for one

為何乳癌最常發生在靠近腋窩的地方? ...請轉寄給你認識的女孩子
不久以前,我參加了一個由 Terry Birk贊助的「乳癌防制研討會」,在最後的問答時間裡,我提出了一個問題
當時沒有人可以回答我的問題,可是最近我收到這封信
現在我要請你重新想想你每天的日用品,有沒有可能會致癌的東西
一位朋友將這封信轉寄給我,我把它給一位 正 在接受化療的朋友看,她說在她最近參加的互助團體中
大部分的商品都是結合「防汗 / 除臭」兩種功能的,所以趕快回家檢查你有沒有很多這樣子的東西
最主要的理由是:人體有幾個主要排除毒素的區域,包括了膝蓋後方關
那些止汗 / 防汗用品明白地指出了它們的目的在避免你流汗,因而阻止了我們身體
男人之所以比較不會得到乳癌的原因是因為這些防汗用品被阻絕在他們
不但如此,女人如果在剃毛之後馬上使用防汗 /止汗用品,更會提高罹患乳癌的機率,因為這樣皮膚上那些細微的傷痕
請你將這個訊息轉寄給所有的人,因為乳癌的罹患率已經高的驚人

HI All,
Have you seen recent advertisement of M/S SAINT GOBAIN GLASSES shown in TELEVISION'S - Then you must have known about 2 Way mirror)
How to determine if a mirror is 2 way or not (Not a Joke!)?
Not to scare you, but to make sure that you aware. Many of the Hotels and Textile showrooms cheat the customers this way & watch privately.
HOW TO DETECT A 2-WAY MIRROR?
When we visit toilets, bathrooms, hotel rooms, changing rooms, etc.,
How many of you know for sure that the seemingly ordinary mirror hanging on the wall is a real mirror, or actually a 2-way mirror i.e., they can
see you, but you can't see them. There have been many cases of people installing 2-way mirrors in female changing rooms or bathroom or bedrooms.
It is very difficult to positively identify the surface by just looking at it. So, how do we determine with any amount of certainty what type of
mirror we are looking at?
CONDUCT THIS SIMPLE TEST:
Place the tip of your fingernail against the reflective surface and if there is a GAP between your fingernail and the image of the nail,
then it is a GENUINE mirror.
However, if your fingernail DIRECTLY TOUCHES the image of your nail, then BEWARE, IT IS A 2-WAY MIRROR! (There is someone seeing you from the
other side). So remember, every time you see a mirror, do the "fingernail test." It doesn't cost you anything. It is simple to do.
This is a really good thing to do. The reason there is a gap on a real mirror, is because the silver is on the back of the mirror UNDER the glass.
Whereas with a two-way mirror, the silver is on the surface. Keep it in mind! Make sure and check every time you enter in hotel rooms. May be someone is making a film on you.
Ladies: Share this with your friends.
Men: Share this with your sisters, wives, daughters, friends, colleagues, etc.

Please be a true friend and send this article to all your friends you care about.
For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you. It is nice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal. However, the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. It will slow down the digestion. Once this "sludge" reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine. Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer. It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal.
A serious note about heart attacks - You should know that not every heart attack symptom is going to be the left arm hurting. Be aware of intense pain in the jaw line.
You may never have the first chest pain during the course of a heart attack. Nausea and intense sweating are also common symptoms. 60% of people who have a heart attack while they are asleep do not wake up. Pain in the jaw can wake you from a sound sleep. Let's be careful and be aware. The more we know the better chance we could survive.
A cardiologist says if everyone who reads this message sends it to 10 people, you can be sure that we'll save at least one life. Read this & Send the link to a friend. It could save a life. So, please be a true friend and send this article to all your friends you care about.
Its never late....Forward soon...

Miracle of Allah in Saudi Arabia
SAND FOUNTAIN
You can't believe this in present materialistic life but this has happened in Saudi Arabia .
A SAND FOUNTAIN ... SUBHANALLAH
The description says: A fountain of sand erupted in the desert of Saudi Arabia and until today geologists don't have a clue or an explanation to what is going on. Scientists say that this will bring out some minerals and metals that we have never seen or encountered before..
IT IS JUST ANOTHER MIRACLE FROM ALLAH
Suddenly , a 9-meter fountain appeared, in the Al-Ahsa City , Eastern Saudi Arabia .
Immediately, Aramco Geological teams and Scientists hurry to deal with this strange phenomenon, but they did not succeed in explaining what happened! But they agreed on
a theory (...) that these are -what so called- burdens of the Earth. Allah says in the
Quran :
'And the earth throws up her burdens (from within)' 99.2
Some scientists said this phenomenon will lead to appearance of new materials, Which will change the humanity way of life ...
We will show them Our signs in all the regions of the earth and in their own souls, until they clearly see that this is the truth ...'
(Holy Quran: Chapter Fussilat, 41: Verse 53)
The Day of Judgment is near when there is a single star in the sky, straightaway the path of forgiveness will close. The writing in the Quran will vanish. The sun will lower itself with the earth.
Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said who ever delivers this news to someone else I will on the day of judgment make him a place in paradise, Aameen.

Beware of using credit card to refill the petrol.
Just got to know about this case through a friend that this thing actually
happened to one of his co-workers. She used her credit/debit card to
purchase gas at the pump (like most of us do).
She received her receipt like normal. However, when she checked her
statement, there were 2 $50 charges added in addition to her purchase. Upon
investigation, she found out that because she did not press the 'CLEAR'
button on the pump, the employee inside the store was able to use her card
to purchase his/her own gas! To keep this from happening, after you get
your receipt, you must press the 'CLEAR' button or your information will be
stored until the next customer inserts their card.
Be sure to tell all your friends/family so that this doesn't happen to
them!

1 DON'T SLEEP WITH WATCH
Watches can emit a certain level of radioactivity.
Though small, but if you wear your watch to bed
for a long time, it might have adverse effects on your health.
2 DON'T SLEEP WITH BRA
Scientists in America have discovered those that wear bras for more than 12 hours have
a higher risk of getting breast cancer. So go to bed without it.
3 DON'T SLEEP WITH PHONE
Putting the phone beside your bed or anywhere near you is not encouraged.
Though some of us will use phones as alarm clocks, but please put the phone as far as possible.
Scientists have proved that electrical items including mobile phone and television sets emit magnetic waves when used. These waves can cause disruptions to our nervous system. Therefore if you need to put your mobile phone near you, switch it off first.
4 DON'T SLEEP WITH MAKE UP
People who sleep with make up might have skin problems in the long run.
Sleeping with make up will cause the skin to have difficulty in breathing and problem in perspiring.
You will also need a much longer time to go into deep sleep..
5 DON'T SLEEP WITH OTHERS' WIFE / HUSBAND
You may never wake up again.
