Text Valentines Day
Its that time of the year when couples show their love for each other
by sending cards, flowers and chocolates. But Valentines Day is not
only about public displays of affection: in recent years it has also
become big business. In the UK alone, more than 20 million pounds is
spent on flowers, whilst in the United States over 1 billion dollars is
forked out on chocolates.
Valentines Day, or its equivalent, is now celebrated in many countries around the world. However, the
traditions often differ from place to place. In Japan, for example, it is customary for the woman to send
chocolates to the man, whilst in Korea April 14th is known as Black Day and is when the unfortunate men
who received nothing on Valentines Day gather to eat noodles and commiserate with each other.

called his Aunty Tara. How could you have called Aunty Tara? I asked. You dont
even know her number. Yes, I do. I called her, he replied. I wasted a lot of breath
trying to convince him that he didnt know her number, but he insisted he had made
the call. Okay, I said finally. What did she say, then, if you called her? He
answered, She told me I had the wrong number.

Text Dolphins
Dolphins are mammals, not fish. They are warm blooded like man,
and give birth to one baby, called a calf, at a time.
At birth, a dolphin calf is about 90-130 cms long and will grow to
approximately 4 metres, living up to 40 years.
They are highly sociable animals, living in groups, which are fairly
fluid, with dolphins from other groups interacting with each other from
time to time.
Dolphins carry their young inside their womb for about 12 months.
The baby is born tail first, and its mother will feed the calf for up to 2
years.
However, the calf will stay with its mother for between 3-6 years, during which time it will learn all about
feeding techniques, social interaction and group hunting.

Text Superstitions:
Friday 13th unlucky for you?
Are you superstitious? Do you believe in good luck and bad luck? And, if so, how do you go
about avoiding bad and promoting good luck?
One person in four in Britain is, apparently, superstitious, and theyll do everything from hanging
horseshoes over their fireplace to crossing their fingers, touching wood and absolutely never walking
under a ladder. And theyre careful about cats. Black cats are supposed to be the familiars of witches
or warlocks, so if one is following you its definitely bad luck a witch is after you!. On the other
hand, if one crosses your path and continues then its good luck because it hasnt noticed you.
However, in some places the beliefs are different so it pays to know where your black cat comes
from!

EARN CASH AND HELP SAVE THE PLANET BY RECYCLING

YOUR OLD GADGETS WITH MIRRORGOGREEN
If getting paid for going green sounds too good to be true then youve not heard of Mirrorgogreen, a
new site launched to help paint Britain green through recycling old or unused gadgets.
We all have old phones, digital cameras and even laptops gathering dust in drawers so now is the time
to recycle these gadgets and cash in.
Recycling an Apple iPhone, for example, could earn you $198, while you can get up to $350 for a
working laptop and more than $60 for a working MP3 player.
The Mirrorgogreen site has been developed to be the first of its kind to recycle not only mobile phones
but also laptops, MP3 players and sat navs, with plans to expand into several other technologies in the next
few months.
To find out what your old gadgets are worth and to cash in while doing your bit for the environment, visit
the Mirrorgogreen site now.

Non-smokers who grew up with smoking parents face double the usual risk of lung
cancer. A recent study estimates that 17 percent of all lung cancer patients in the US
have never touched a cigarette and that their disease results from exposure to smokers
when they were young. It makes a strong case that exposure to secondhand smoke as
a child increases your risk as an adult, says Dr. Stanton Glantz of the University of

Text Roller Skates

ROLLER SKATES
Today, roller skating is easy and fun. But a long time ago, it wasnt easy at all. Before 1750,
the idea of skating didnt exist. That changed because of a man named Joseph Merlin. Merlins work
was making musical instruments.
In his spare time he liked to play the violin. Joseph Merlin was a man of ideas and dreams.
People called him a dreamer.
One day Merlin received an invitation to attend a fancy dress ball. He was very pleased and
a little excited. As the day of the party came near, Merlin began to think how to make a grand
entrance at the party. He had an idea. He thought he would get a lot of attention if he could skate
into the room.
Merlin tried different ways to make _________ roll. Finally, he decided to put two wheels
under each shoe. These were the first roller skates. Merlin was very proud of his invention as
dreamed of arriving at the party on wheels while playing the violin.
On the night of the party Merlin rolled into the room playing his violin. Everyone was
astonished to see him. There was just one problem. Merlin had no way to stop his roller skates. He
rolled on and on. Suddenly, he ran into a huge mirror that was hanging on the wall. Down fell the
mirror, breaking to pieces. Nobody forgot Merlins grand entrance for a long time!

Text New Research on the Power of Smiling
13
We all know that smiling is important when meeting

new people. However, new research suggests that
different types of smiles affect what people think of us.
There are any number of sayings about the power of
the smile. Peace begins with a smile. A smile is the
universal welcome. Life is short but a smile only takes a
second. All good advice. But it may not be as simple as
that. According to new research, if you want to make a
good impression when you meet people, it's not just that
you smile. It's how you smile.
The study was carried out by the Go Group, a business support organisation based in
Scotland. They looked at people's reactions to different grins. They found that responses varied
considerably.
Through this they say they have found three types of smile to avoid: The first is The
Enthusiast, very wide, all teeth showing, possible evidence that you can have too much of a
good thing. Then there is the 'Big Freeze', a fixed grin that looks practised and fake. Finally
comes The Robot, a small, thin smile, lacking in warmth.
The group also warns about smiling too quickly, saying it can make you look insincere. The
best smile, they say, is slower and floods naturally across the whole face.

WHITE LIES
At 9:00 Dick Spivalks bank telephoned and said
payment was late. The check is in the post. Dick replied
quickly. At 11:45 Dick left for a 12:00 meeting across
town. Arriving late, he explained that traffic had been bad.
That evening, Dicks girlfriend wore a new dress. He
hated it. It looks just great on you, he said.
Three lies in one day! Yet Dick Spivalk is just an
ordinary man. Each time, he told himself that sometimes the
truth causes too many problems. Most of us tell much the
same white lies, harmless untruths that help to save trouble.
How often do we tell white lies? It depends in part
on our age, education, and even where we live. According
to one U.S. study, women are more truthful than men, and honesty increases as we get older.
While most people use little white lies to make life easier, the majority of Americans care
about honesty in both public and personal life. They say that people today are less honest than
they were ten years ago. Although it is believed that things are getting worse, lying seems to be
an age-old human problem. The French philosopher Vauvenarges, writing in the eighteenth
century, touched on the truth when he wrote, All men are born truthful and die liars.

MR. MILLERS COMPLAINT

Dear Sir,
I must complain in writing about the service at the Hotel Regency last month. I stayed
at the hotel for a fortnight, and this was my third visit.
There were a number of things wrong. First, the new self-service arrangement at lunch
was not what I expected. Second, the service at dinner was very slow. Third, the general
standard of service in the hotel was very poor. The receptionists always seemed
extremely busy; the hotel porter was never available; there was no 24-hour service; there
was nobody to help me get a taxi when I needed one most; and I thought that the floor
waiter was rather rude.
I do not usually complain but, as an old customer, Im sure you will be interested in my
comments.
Yours truly.
Peter Miller.
