DID YOU KNOW (http://www.didyouknow.org/)
The "Crossing the Line" ceremony originally was created as a test to ensure new sailors were capable of handling long, rough stretches at sea, the "Crossing the Line" ceremony is an initiation rite used by many navies to commemorate a sailor's first crossing of the equator. Sailors who have already crossed the equator are nicknamed Shellbacks; those who have not are called Pollywogs. Many navies now have regulations to prevent hazing during the tradition, which often involves various physical tests. DID YOU KNOW Gymnasiums were introduced in 900BC and Greek athletes practised in the nude to the accompaniment of music. They also performed naked at the Olympic Games.

TIP OF THE DAY
How to Learn to Wait for What You Want
Life is 10% what you make it, 90% how you take it. Having the right attitude about things makes life a lot easier.
1.Identify your problem.
2.Have the right attitude. Ask yourself these questions... Do you think your problem is only what is wrong with what is now? Are you unhappy because you can't be where you want to be right this very second? Will things really change if you get what or where you want?
3. Know that if you think life is terrible right now, possibilities are that life will be terrible when you get to where you want to go in life. Because life is only what you make of it.
4. Are you living in the future? Neglecting the present? And forgetting the past?
5. Are your priorities mixed up? What kind of job you have, where you live, and other things in your life are minor ones compared to the importance of making the best of what is here and now.
6.Attitude is everything! A person with a poor attitude is a poor person period, but those with a good attitude are rich no matter what.
7.Set your priorities straight. Do you want the glamour without the work? What if what you want entails work also?
8. Start listening to your intuition for guidance on where you should go. Take charge of the here and now.

QUOTE OF THE DAY
Al Franken

Mistakes are a part of being human. Appreciate your mistakes for what they are: precious life lessons that can only be learned the hard way. Unless it's a fatal mistake, which, at least, others can learn from.
