Many people will rush into their cars first thing in the morning and the last thing at night, 7 days a week and start their cars and immediately switch on the air-conditioner.
Car A/C (Airconditioner)
DO NOT turn on your A/C as soon as you turn on the car ignition
Open the windows after you enter your car and turn ON the AC after a couple of minutes.
Here's why:
According to a research, the car dashboard, sofa, air freshener emit Benzene, a Cancer causing toxin (carcinogen - take time to observe the smell of heated plastic in your car).
In addition to causing cancer, Benzene poisons your bones, causes anemia and reduces white blood cells.
Prolonged exposure will cause Leukemia and increases the risk of other cancers.
It can also cause miscarriage.
Acceptable Benzene level indoors is 50 mg per sq. ft.
A car parked indoors with windows closed will contain 400-800 mg of Benzene.
If parked outdoors under the sun at a temperature above 60 degrees F, the Benzene level goes up to 2000-4000 mg, 40 times the acceptable level.
People who get into the car, keeping windows closed will inevitably inhale, in quick succession, excessive amounts of the toxin.
Benzene is a toxin that affects your kidney and liver.. What's worse, it is extremely difficult for your body to expel this toxic stuff.
So friends, please open the windows and doors of your car - give time for the interior to air out and expel the deadly toxin before you enter.

I am constantly getting facebook messages for Vita Soy in my email.
I'm pretty sure I've gotten some of the completely random funny ones but I can't remember any at the moment.
Although fuck it was a long time before I could convince my grandpa to stop sending me his horrible right-wing fundamentalist emails about how Obama is a muslim and all that fun stuff.
Here are some titles:
Fw: SLIDE SHOW OF 9/11 NEVER SEEN BEFORE (sent June 9th of this year)
Fw: Obama's "Inherited Deficit"?? (about how the deficit is actually from the Democrats in 2007 and not from the wars)
"
I am afraid that this, if carried through, will lead to Civil War...there are too many trained veterans in this country, to take this quietly
Supposedly there is a Army Brigade that is in trainng to suppress any opposition.
When I took the Oath, it was to defend the Constitution, not some President.
Jim :-)"
Oh Jesus chris one of the emails is seriously about how Joe Arpaio is actually a good guy. I want to throw up in rage
No Looting, no riots and only 15 minutes of national coverage...
What will happen? The people of Nashville will pick up the pieces and go on... Nothing like New Orleans... Why?? The People…"
Oh god my grandpa is a racist
edit: Seriously I'm wading through like a year's worth of shitty forwards that have collected in my inbox and it is terrible.
I mean I'm not even a hardcore democrat or anything. I'm pretty middle of the road. But these are so far to the right it is crazy. I mean they have just lost all perspective on reality or something
since when are concentrations measured in mg per square foot? that makes no sense
kpop appreciation station i also like to tweet some
i don't want to break his little heart by telling him i voted for obama
Where the hell were they during the Bush administration
not protests of the tea party
protests with the pea tarty
It's kinda sad I had kept the best stuff he sent me for months waiting for this thread, and I just deleted them the other day.
Dear C4L Member,
Late Sunday night, the U.S. House of Representatives abandoned the Constitution, made a mockery of the words of the Founders, and drew a line in the sand as it passed the Senate’s health care bill 219-212.
The morning after the federal government acted yet again to increase its control over our lives, the freedom movement has two clear options.
Option #1 is to give President Obama, Rahm Emanuel, Nancy Pelosi, and Harry Reid exactly what they want by throwing in the towel, surrendering any hopes of free market health care reform, and taking the pressure off an exhausted Congress.
Option #2 is to rededicate our efforts, work harder than ever to spread the message, turn up the heat, and give them the fight of their political careers.
You see, our elected officials are used to enduring knockdown, drag-out battles over controversial issues, and the one thing they always count on after a contentious vote is that the phone lines will go silent and their inboxes will slowly be whittled down. After all, they know our side lost, and the bill will soon be signed into law.
That may have been true about the legislative fights of old, but our Revolution must not allow this dangerous relic of past political thinking to continue.
Read the roll call of the House vote here. Get contact information for your representative here.
If your congressman voted for Nancy Pelosi’s power grab, contact him right away today by phone and email and let him know what you think of his failure to uphold his oath to the Constitution.
Remind him that you’re watching and will do everything in your power to hold him accountable for his vote and to make sure his constituents know he believes they should either carry government-approved insurance or answer to the IRS.
Tell him his actions have made you more committed than ever to fighting for free market health care reforms like those contained in C4L’s Operation Health Freedom.
And make sure he knows this will be the first of many calls, emails, and faxes he can expect in the coming days and months.
If you are able, please help Campaign for Liberty spread the word, hold our elected officials accountable, and carry on the battle for health freedom by donating today.
Only your continued support will keep us at the forefront of the fight to push back against the statists’ advances and reclaim our liberties.
I don’t know about you, but I’m sick and tired of being lectured on responsibility and fairness by reckless politicians who think money can be generated out of thin air forever and who believe the Declaration’s statement concerning “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness” means we have to bow the knee to their every whim.
They’ve staked their claim and left no doubt about where they stand.
Now it’s our turn to prove we will never give up on our principles.
Principles that don’t include forcing your neighbor to buy whatever good or service you think they should have under penalty of IRS action. Principles that reaffirm the fundamental right of each American to live their life and pursue their dreams without constant government interference.
Please, contact your representative today and clearly state your independence from politics as usual.
The statists think the fight is over.
Together, let’s show them they haven’t seen anything yet.
In Liberty,
John Tate
President
P.S. Unlike big government cheerleaders, C4L will not spend resources it does not have. Your continued support is critical to helping us lead the charge to overturn ObamaCare and institute real health care reform. If you are able, please consider making a contribution to our efforts today.
Telling the left to "love it or leave it".
A chemistry professor in a large college had some exchange students in the class. One day while the class was in the lab the Professor noticed one young man (exchange student) who kept rubbing his back, and stretching as if his back hurt.
The professor asked the young man what was the matter. The student told him he had a bullet lodged in his back. He had been shot while fighting communists in his native country who were trying to overthrow his country's government and install a new communist government.
In the midst of his story he looked at the professor and asked a strange question. He asked, 'Do you know how to catch wild pigs?'
The professor thought it was a joke and asked for the punch line. The young man said this was no joke. 'You catch wild pigs by finding a suitable place in the woods and putting corn on the ground. The pigs find it and begin to come everyday to eat the free corn. When they are used to coming every day, you put a fence down one side of the place where they are used to coming. When they get used to the fence, they begin to eat the corn again and you put up another side of the fence. They get used to that and start to eat again. You continue until you have all four sides of the fence up with a gate in The last side. The pigs, who are used to the free corn, start to come through the gate to eat, you slam the gate on them and catch the whole herd.
Suddenly the wild pigs have lost their freedom. They run around and around inside the fence, but they are caught. Soon they go back to eating the free corn. They are so used to it that they have forgotten how to forage in the woods for themselves, so they accept their captivity.
The young man then told the professor that is exactly what he sees happening to America . The government keeps pushing us toward socialism and keeps spreading the free corn out in the form of programs such as supplemental income, tax credit for unearned income, tobacco subsidies, dairy subsidies, payments not to plant crops (CRP), welfare, medicine, drugs, etc.. While we continually lose our freedoms -- just a little at a time.
One should always remember: There is no such thing as a free lunch! Also, a politician will never provide a service for you cheaper than you can do it yourself.
Also, if you see that all of this wonderful government 'help' is a problem confronting the future of democracy in America , you might want to send this on to your friends. If you think the free ride is essential to your way of life then you will probably delete this email, but God help you when the gate slams shut!
Keep your eyes on the newly elected politicians who are about to slam the gate on America .
"A government big enough to give you everything you want, is big enough to take away everything you have"

What could possibly go wrong????
Budgets do NOT come from the White House. They come from Congress, and the party that controlled Congress since January 2007 is the Democratic Party. They controlled the budget process for FY 2008 and FY 2009, as well as FY 2010 and FY 2011. In that first year, they had to contend with George Bush, which caused them to compromise on spending, when Bush somewhat belatedly got tough on spending increases.
For FY 2009 though, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid bypassed George Bush entirely, passing continuing resolutions to keep government running until Barack Obama could take office. At that time, they passed a massive omnibus spending bill to complete the FY 2009 budgets.
And where was Barack Obama during this time? He was a member of that very Congress that passed all of these massive spending bills, and he signed the omnibus bill as President to complete FY 2009. Let's remember what the deficits looked like during that period: (below)
If the Democrats inherited any deficit, it was the FY 2007 deficit, the last of the Republican budgets. That deficit was the lowest in five years, and the fourth straight decline in deficit spending. After that, Democrats in Congress took control of spending, and that includes Barack Obama, who voted for the budgets. If Obama inherited anything, he inherited it from himself.
In a nutshell, what Obama is saying is - I inherited a deficit that I voted for and I voted to expand the deficit four-fold since January 20th.
There is no way this will be widely publicized,
Unless each of us sends it on!
This is your chance to make a difference. Do it!
i'm sort of a jerk
how can you be forced to listen to that

He is apparently battling that by saying the government is trying to censor him
But tea and cookies go great together.
Basically, it boils down to Beck being a silly goose.
He rants and raves all day to his listeners / viewers about how the government is going to take your money, the economy is going to collapse and money will end up worthless like in Zimbabwe. The way to avoid this is buying gold.
His show is sponsored by a gold minting company, and he's backed by the same company.
This explains everything way better than I've seen elsewhere
What is it about digging precious elements from the ground that turns people into giant douchebags?
When I was in Boston for PAX we sat in the hotel room channel surfing and found Glenn Beck on FOX News. We don't get the news part in Canada so it was exciting. I had only seen clips from the daily show before.
After about 2 minutes I was like "...is he trolling?"
There's no way that guy is for real.

Yeah, this is mostly what I get anymore. I used to get really awesome passages from Tolstoy with V-I-A-G-R-A hidden in the middle somewhere.
