Invented and bankrolled by New York real estate developer Seymour Durst, the 11-by-26 foot National Debt Clock was erected in 1989. When it first was plugged in, the odometer-style clock whirred furiously as the national debt rose by $13,000 a second. Often the last few digits increased so fast they were just a blur. And at one point in the mid-1990s, the debt was rising so fast the clock’s computer crashed.
Under the presidency of Bill Clinton and a push for a balanced budget, though, the clock started ticking in the opposite direction, shaving off roughly $30 a second towards the turn of the century. Durst’s son felt that was “sending the wrong message at [that] point” and the clock was shut down untiul 2002 when the fiscal conservative administration (tongue planted firmly in cheek) of George W. Bush reversed course and brought meaning back to the ticker.

HAVING a romp more often can reduce the need for Viagra.
Recent research shows that men who have regular sex can reduce their risk of developing erectile dysfunction.
The five year study, published in the American Journal of Medicine, analysed 989 Finnish men aged 55 to 75 years old.
It found that men who make love once a week have TWICE the risk of erectile dysfunction compared to those who indulge in steamy sessions three times a week.

The UK`s ‘ultimate fantasy body’ has a name—and no it`s not an Aston Martin! Girls Aloud singer Cheryl Cole won the top vote in a poll carried out by YouGov. The 25-year-old won the survey commissioned by slimming aid Zotrim after she raked in 15 per cent of the votes and destroyed what remains of Posh Spice aka Victoria Beckham, Coleen McLoughlin and the other WAGs (wives and girlfriends of footballers) and celebrities.
The vote also marks a departure from the size zero debate after 11 per cent thought Nigella Lawson was a definite choice.

Kourtney Klein
Marisa Miller
As Sports Illustrated’s 2008 Swimsuit Issue cover girl, Victoria’s Secret’s number one Angel (sorry, Gisele), and the crème de la crème of Maxim’s ninth annual Hot 100 list, Marisa Miller embodies the official return of the all-American supermodel. Not since Cindy Crawford ruled the catwalk has a pinup born and bred on U.S. soil so thoroughly captured the imagination of the American male. It must be strange living a life in which no man can formulate a coherent sentence in your presence. Oh, and if you really need one more reason to love her: Marisa humbly says of her career, “I get a kick out of it, but it would be stupid to let it go to my head. It’s modeling—I didn’t find the cure for cancer.”

India’s first Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw dead(ibnlive)

Members of an unknown Amazon Basin tribe and their dwellings are seen during a flight over the Brazilian state of Acre along the border with Peru in this May, 2008 photo distributed by FUNAI, the government agency for the protection of indigenous peoples. Survival International estimates that there are over 100 uncontacted tribes worldwide, and says that uncontacted tribes in the region are under increasing threat from illegal logging over the border in Peru.

The 1983 team earned a place in sporting history, and along with it the title ‘Kapil’s Devils.’ Every Indian team, thereafter, has been compared to these champions.
A memorable moment. One, no words can describe.
Kapil Dev receives the trophy from MCC president Sir Anthony Tuke
‘The spirit among the boys was incredible. I don’t know what specific reasons enabled us to attain that kind of spirit but I believe it was the most vital character of that triumph,’ Mohinder Amarnath said after India’s incredible victory.
‘The victory. How did it happen? How did India overturn all predictions? Why did so many wickets tumble so cheaply? India performed one of the most mystical acts in her long cricket history — Kapil Dev’s merry men swung, seamed and caught their way through the rich list of Caribbean batting talent to win the Prudential World Cup. Joyful Indian crowds swarmed in front of the pavilion. The handsome captain, Kapil Dev, accepted the Cup from the president of the MCC, Sir Anthony Tuke.’
– The Sunday Telegraph, Tony Lewis.
The match-winning moment
Things were starting to look up for the West Indies. After a disastrous start, wicket-keeper Jeff Dujon put on 43 runs with Malcolm Marshall for the seventh wicket. Then came along Mohinder Amarnath to bowl his trundlers. A seemingly innocuous delivery deceived Dujon and India were roaring towards victory once again.
‘In a remarkable game, no batsman made 50, no bowler took more than three wickets, yet the outcome was perfect climax to a competition puntuated by the unlikely and the unexpected.’
– Michael Carey, of the Daily Telegraph
Left: India’s opening batsman Krishnamachari Srikkanth, who top-scored, with 38 runs, in the final.
India denied the West Indies a third consecutive title. The odds against India winning the World Cup before the tournament were 1 to 66, a true reflection of their performances in the earlier World Cups.

I am an artist at living – my work of art is my life – SUZUKI
Most people live – whether physically, intellectually or morally – in a very restricted circle of their potential being. We all have reservoirs of life to draw upon of which we do not dream. – WILLIAM JAMES
How can you really know the joy of being on the summit of the mountain unless you have first visited the lowest valley?
To savor the good one must know the bad?
Remember that the laws of nature always ensure that when one door closes another opens.
When you are inspired by some great purpose, some extraordinary projects, all of your thoughts break their bonds: your mind transcends limitations, your consciousness expands in every direction and you find yourself in a new, great and wonderful world. Dormant forces, faculties and talents become alive and you discover yourself to be a greater person than you ever dreamed yourself to be.
Winston Churchill said that ‘the price of greatness is responsibility over each of your thoughts.’
Then you will install the vibrant mindset you are looking for. Remember, the mind truly is like any other muscle in your body. Use it or lose it.
Calculated risk taking will pay huge dividends.
You truly cannot afford the luxury of even one negative thought.
Einstein said that imagination is more important than knowledge.
Fatigue dominates the lives of those who are living without direction and dreams.
Only those who seek shall find.
There are no mistakes – only lessons. See setbacks as opportunities for personal expansion and spiritual growth.
The secret of happiness is simple: find out what you truly love to do and then direct all of you energy towards doing it. Once you do this abundance flows into your life and all your desires are filled with ease and grace.
Trust yourself. Create the kind of life you will be happy to live with all your life. Make the most of yourself by fanning the tiny, inner sparks of possibility into the flames of achievement.- FOSTER C. McCLELLAN
Benjamin Disraeli said: “The secret of success is constancy of purpose”.
The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.
A day without laughter or a day without love was a day without life.
A burning sense of passion is the most potent fuel for your dreams.
Good people strengthen themselves ceaselessly – CONFUCIUS
Epictetus said: ‘No man is free who is not a master of himself.”
The only limits on your life are those that you set yourself.
Luck favours the prepared mind.
When you erase fear from your mind, you start to look younger and your health becomes more vibrant.
One must live a life of moderation and do nothing to extremes.
Mistakes are part of life and essential for growth.
