Have you ever had acupuncture? What else can I try for high blood pressure?
by dmouse ini had a bit of a shock last month when, in a routine check-up, my doc told me i had high blood pressure.. i can't remember what the reading was the first time but the next few days it was averaging 150/100.
not wanting to go on drugs for the rest of my life i decided to look at alternatives.
there are some chinese clinics in the town where i live so i tried one of those.. they recommended a course of herbal medicine and acupuncture.

Wither JW prophecies if the UN disbanded?
by dmouse inreading the newspapers over the past few weeks i have become aware of a massive groundswell of disillusionment regarding the united nations.. comments such as: .
while the isg report provides embarrassing reading for all those who actively participated in saddam's scam, the real victim is the un itself, whose claim to the moral high ground when confronting rogue regimes and dictators now lies in tatters.. .
yet the lofty words were made to an audience somewhat lacking in firepower.

What do you think of justice in the UK?
by dmouse inthere was a horrible story about a special-needs teacher this month who was subject to a campaign of violence and intimidation from local youths.
the police ignored her repeated requests for action and in desperation, when she again saw her car being vandalised, she ran out brandishing an air-pistol to scare the yobs off.
she was promptly arrested and sentenced to six months in prison.

A new way of getting in your time in the UK?
by dmouse inevery sunday, not far from me, literally hundreds of cars converge onto a local farm and set up picnic tables from which people sell all the used stuff they don?t want anymore ?
bric-a-brac, clothes, toys, tools; you name it, they sell it.
i?ve found quite a few bargains in the last few weeks, like a nearly-new leather motorcycle jacket for 10!
