As a child, I along with my brother and sisters, explored the Wilmot Creek and area on a daily basis. The Outdoor Education Centre, located immediately immediately across the road, allowed schools access for field trips regularly. It was from my exploration of this natural habitat that I learned the information and skills I have used in teaching science and nature lessons in the classroom classroom as well as when working in YMCA Outdoor Exploration Summer Camps, As well as putting a "damper" on the future of children's enjoyment and learping, the development of this land will be very detrimental to the plant and wildlife that thrive there. We have to seriously think about whether it is worth taking over this valuable land. If we keep developing at the present rate we will not have enough natural resources to survive ourselves, let along plants and animals. This is not an isolated case. It is happening worldwide. I once read an article entitled "Earth's Vital Signs" during my ongoing ongoing pursuit toward attaining my B.A. through night school. It mentioned the fact that "each year, thousands of plant and animal animal species disappear, many before they arc named or catalogued...All human activities affect the earth's physical condition." condition." Thousands of lakes arc biologically dead, as well as creeks and streams. (Lester R. Brown et al. in Sources-Notable Selections in Sociology. Finstcrbusch and Schwartz. 1993. The Dushkin Publishing Group Inc. Guilford, Connecticut. U.S. p.291). The outcome of this factory will be most likely an economic success, success, but sometimes we need to think about health and welfare before money. The building of this factory factory will disrupt the natural habitat of innumerable species. The Wilmot Creek is one of the healthiest creeks with the highest abundance abundance of fish and trout varieties. Let's work together in order for it to remain so.

Smokers metabolize certain drugs faster than non-smokers. For example, they break down caffeine almost twice as fast as non-smokers. So those who finally quit the habit should switch to decaffeinated coffee to reduce sleeping problems that might be enhanced from stopping smoking. Massage therapy has progressed beyond being a self-indulgent self-indulgent extravagance to becoming useful in many physiological and psychological situations. Some large companies like Apple Computer and Heinz actually have in-house massage programs for their' employees. They feel it is definitely worth the investment. In Canada, the "start rate" for moms who breast-feed ranges ranges from a high of 90% in B.C. to a low of about 40% in Quebec and Newfoundland. However, these rates reduce quite significantly after two weeks because of lack of support support or good advice. Breast-feeding benefits both mom and baby. Make every effort to learn about it. Although breast-feeding moms can take most medications without fear of harming their baby, it is wise to check first. Your pharmacist is a good source of information on drugs and breast milk.
