A fox once saw a crow fly off with a piece of cheese in its beak and settle on a branch of a tree.
“That’s for me, as I am a fox,” said Master Reynard, and he walked up to the foot of the tree.
“Good-day, Mistress Crow,” he cried. “How well you are looking to-day: how glossy your feathers; how bright your eye. I feel sure your voice must surpass that of other birds, just as your figure does; let me hear but one song from you that I may greet you as the Queen of Birds.”
The crow lifted up her head and began to caw her best, but the moment she opened her mouth the piece of cheese fell to the ground, only to be snapped up by Master Fox.
“That will do,” said he. “That was all I wanted. In exchange for your cheese I will give you a piece of advice for the future:
“Do not trust flatterers.”

One study divided college-students’ comfort-food identifications into four categories (nostalgic foods, indulgence foods, convenience foods, and physical comfort foods) with a special emphasis on the deliberate selection of particular foods to modify mood or effect, and indications that the medical-therapeutic use of particular foods may ultimately be a matter of mood-alteration.
The identification of particular items as comfort food may be idiosyncratic, though patterns are detectable. In one study of American preferences, “males preferred warm, hearty, meal-related comfort foods (such as steak, casseroles, and soup) while females instead preferred comfort foods that were more snack related (such as chocolate and ice cream). In addition, younger people preferred more snack-related comfort foods compared to those over 55 years of age.” The study also revealed strong connections between consumption of comfort foods and feelings of] An article, “The Myth of Comfort Food” asserted that men tend to choose these types of savory comfort foods because they remind them of being “pampered” or spoiled, while women choose snack-related foods because they are associated with low amounts of work and less “cleanup.” It also suggested that women are more likely to reach for unhealthier foods in times of stress due to more weight-conscious mindsets.

I drink warm water before I go to sleep, and lukewarm water when I wake up. I believe it helps my well being, and stops any types of bad dreams. Plus when I wake up, and drink the water it helps me be alert, and oriented when I need it most. Thanks for the information, cheers! |

Hello there!! I agree with your exclamation of canned food. We don’t really know how long, or time the food has been in the product, or the real amount of sodium, or lead. Thanks for the I’m put, much needed. Will have to research that more! 😀 |

All the birds of the air came to the magpie and asked her to teach them how to build nests. For the magpie is the cleverest bird of all at building nests. So she put all the birds round her and began to show them how to do it. First of all she took some mud and made a sort of round cake with it.
“Oh, that’s how it’s done,” said the thrush; and away it flew, and so that’s how thrushes build their nests.
Then the magpie took some twigs and arranged them round in the mud.
“Now I know all about it,” says the blackbird, and off he flew; and that’s how the blackbirds make their nests to this very day.
Then the magpie put another layer of mud over the twigs.
“Oh that’s quite obvious,” said the wise owl, and away it flew; and owls have never made better nests since.
After this the magpie took some twigs and twined them round the outside.
“The very thing!” said the sparrow, and off he went; so sparrows make rather slovenly nests to this day.
Well, then Madge Magpie took some feathers and stuff and lined the nest very comfortably with it.
“That suits me,” cried the starling, and off it flew; and very comfortable nests have starlings.
So it went on, every bird taking away some knowledge of how to build nests, but, none of them waiting to the end. Meanwhile Madge Magpie went on working and working without, looking up till the only bird that remained was the turtle-dove, and that hadn’t paid any attention all along, but only kept on saying its silly cry “Take two, Taffy, take two-o-o-o.”
At last the magpie heard this just as she was putting a twig across. So she said: “One’s enough.”
But the turtle-dove kept on saying: “Take two, Taffy, take two-o-o-o.”
Then the magpie got angry and said: “One’s enough I tell you.”
Still the turtle-dove cried: “Take two, Taffy, take two-o-o-o.”
At last, and at last, the magpie looked up and saw nobody near her but the silly turtle-dove, and then she got rare angry and flew away and refused to tell the birds how to build nests again. And that is why different birds build their nests differently

Thing is the Differences in the physical connection of our brain are at the root of what make people think and behave differently from one another. the exact brain regions where individual differences occur. Their findings reveal that individuals’ brain connectivity varies more in areas that relate to integrating information than in areas for initial perception of the world. personalities have a lot to do with different mindsets today. |

I use avacado oil for my daily moisturizer after I take a shower, and use it twice during the day. What it really gives is a glow to my skin, and really makes my hands soft, and reguvinates my appearance. I am an artist, and using my charcoal, oil pastels, and putting art in canvas my hands and skin can get pretty rough, and I feel like acacado oil really helps moisturizing my life, and smoothing out life. |

I have a Toyota Prius. It is a hybrid electric, and runs too on gas. My favorite thing about it is that it saves me a lot of money, and for a total of 450 miles on a full tank of gas, I’m able to efficiently get around. The best thing about it is the energy monitor, and it tells me how much miles per gallon, and pressing the brake, I can preserve more battery. I love it, and even though I have only had it for 10+ months, it is efficient. |
