NEWS and VIEWS

A friend in Australia:
Hi Yanks, I thought you all would like to see the real figures from Down Under. It has now been 12 months since gun owners in Australia were forced by new law to surrender 640,381 personal firearms to be destroyed by our own government, a program costing Australia taxpayers more than $500 million dollars. The first year results are now in:

• Australia-wide, homicides are up 3.2 percent
• Australia-wide, assaults are up 8.6 percent
• Australia-wide, armed robberies are up 44 percent (yes, 44 percent!)
• In the state of Victoria alone, homicides with firearms are now up 300 percent

While figures over the previous 25 years showed a steady decrease in armed robbery with firearms, this has changed drastically upward in the past 12 months,since the criminals now are guaranteed that their prey is unarmed. There has also been a dramatic increase in break-ins and assaults of the elderly. Australian politicians are at a loss to explain how public safety has decreased, after such monumental effort and expense was expended in "successfully ridding Australian society of guns." You won't see this data on the American evening news or hear your governor or members of the state Assembly disseminating this information. The Australian experience proves it.

Guns in the hands of honest citizens save lives and property and, yes, gun-control laws affect only the law-abiding citizens.
*Take note Americans, before it's too late!*

Deep breathing can help you fall asleep:
Breathing deeply and rhythmically can ease muscle tension, lower your heart rate, and help you fall asleep faster. Lie down on the carpet or in or on your bed with your feet shoulder-width apart. (If you're uncomfortable lying on your back, rest on your side with a pillow between your legs for support instead. In this position, you may not be able to breathe as deeply.) With your mouth closed, breathe slowly through your nose, feeling your stomach rise as you gradually fill your diaphragm and lungs with air. Hold for one second before exhaling through your nose to the count of four.
NOTE: Always follow the advice of your Physician!

For the parent and teacher it is a great help knowing, in confidence that the children cannot destroy/alter or run anything that they should not.
For the home-user, the ability to protect any file means NO VIRUS can transfer itself across/within application or alter/destroy data. Virus Proof! No one can open/rename/move/delete or modify any file unless you have authorised it through NoaXs.
NoaXs is 1.5MB to download, compatible with ONLY Windows95/98 and costs $39.95 to register. Benefits include free upgrades/updates/serial replacements and lifetime support.
A 10-day trial accompanies NoaXs and is re-given upon upgrading to a newer version. When the 10 day trial has expired, the program WILL continue to work, abeit a longer splash-screen wait period and a nag requester.
