How much do you know about the miracles of your body? Living in.a computeriz- ed age, we are impressed with the miracle of elec- tronics. But how much do you know about the miracles performed by the Super-Machine, the human body? Here are a few facts that might give you a better understanding and ap- preciation of your physical being: - Your heart is the most efficient pump in existence for its size, beating approx- imately 75 times a minute or 40 million times a year. Its function is to pump blood to all organs, supply- ing food and nourishment to tissues. Likewise, it cir- culates the blood through the lungs where it gathers oxygen: - In a period of one day, the heart supplies enough energy to lift six tractor- trailers off the ground. - At the rate of 24% gallons of blood per hour, your heart in one year pumps enough blood to fill a two-inch pipeline running coast-to-coast. - Your stomach pro- duces a strong acid which aids in digestion. A drop of' the hydrochloric acid pro- duced would burn cloth, raise a blister on your skin and tarnish metal; yet, it does not harm the walls of the stomach under normal conditions. - In a lifetime, the stomach will digest about 50 tons of food. - There are more than 600 muscles in your body. Working in pairs, it takes as many as 200 to do a sim- ple task like putting a box on a shelf. - Your body is made up of billions of cells. They are so small that if you were to lay them side by side, it would take more than 4,000 to cover an area of just one square inch. - Your lungs are filters which take oxygen out of the air. In breathing, you use almost 100 gallons of oxygen each day. - There are more than 25 trillion red cells in your blood stream which carry life-giving oxygen from your lungs to your tissues, and then return the waste, gas to be cleaned by the lungs. In the plasma which floats through your body: are also white cells. White cells are an army' of guards, enforcing safety by attacking: disease. - The central nervous system originates in the brain and extends through the spinal column, reaching, every major part of the body. Three million im- pulses are generated in the nervous system every second. - Your brain is the receiving station for more than 125 million light receptors in the eyes, 100 million hearing receptors in the ears, 3,000 taste recep- tors, 30,000 heat receptors, 250,000 cold receptors and % million touch receptors. There is no doubt about it - the human body is a complicated mechanism. That is the basis for chiropractic's viewpoint that any dysfunction of one system or structure may have far-reaching effects. That is also why doctors of chiropractic, as primary health providers, place great emphasis in maintain- ing sound nerve function and structural balance of the body. REVIEW New rent review legislation planned by the Government of Ontario means that the responsibilities of landlords and tenants will be changed retroactive to August 1, 1985. As of that day, a rent review quideline of 4% is to apply to most apartment buildings, and rented townhouses, duplexes, condominiums and individual dwellings such as houses. Other specifics include: © Under rent review, landlords may increase rents up to a specified limit without applying for a review of the proposed new rent. However, if the tenant objects to the proposed increase -- even if it is below the specified limit -- he or she ma for a review. Until August Ist, 1985, a 6% rent review quideline covered most private rental accommodation except units occupied after 1975 and certain units renting for $750 a month or more. © Retroactive to August Ist, 1985, a 4% rent review quideline is to cover all private rental units including those,occupied after 1975 and those renting for more than $750 a month. © Until the legislation is in place landlords can legally collect a 6 per cent increase. However, provision will be made for the payment of rebates to tenants of any amount over 4 per cent, unless a higher increase can be justified in a rent review hearing. Accordingly, all landlords are being asked to voluntarily comply with the 4 per cent limit in order to avoid a time-consuming rebate process. y also apply directory.

Cuts in energy use improve pulp and paper's position Montreal, Aug. 1985 - The Canadian pulp and paper industry now generates 6Yof its total fuel use. from bark and wood wastes, as compared to 42, in 1972. This has come about as a result of an energy conservation drive, begun 15 years ago, mak- ing it possible for the in- dustry to reduce by 27/the amount of energy purchas- ed from domestic and foreign suppliers of elec- tricity, oil, gas, and coal. The reduction is the equivalent of 17,000,000 barrels of oil a year - more than is required to heat all the homes in British Col- umbia for 12 months. The 'Canadian Pulp and Paper Industry Energy Conservation Report for 1984", issued recently. by the Canadian Pulp and Paper Association, noted that the sharp reduction in the use of outside energy sources was brought about by conservation measures and modifications and im- provements to manufactur- ing processes. These steps, achieved at a cost of several hundreds of millions of dollars,. have resulted in a greater use of pulp and paper mill wastes, such as bark and spent pulping liquors, as energy sources. Purchases of electricity, coal, oil, and gas account for some 1Yof the cost of manufacturing pulp and paper products. "The cost of energy rose faster than other costs after the energy crisis of 1973,"" noted Mr. David Paavila, Director of the Environmental, Energy, and Supply Ser- vices Division of the Cana- dian Pulp and Paper Association, "and eroded Canada's competitive posi- -tion in the international pulp and paper market."' "*This energy conserva- tion and reduction program has made the industry a great deal less dependent on non-renewable sources of energy and has also helped our competitive position," added Mr. Paavila. In the long run, the costs incurred by the industry in reducing energy consump- tion will play a significant role in keeping Canadian pulp and paper producers competitive. This is crucial as the economic health of the industry depends on its success in foreign markets where more than 80 of Canadian pulp and paper production is sold. «= Porth DRYCLEANING SERVICES - PHOTO PRINTS -- TERRACE BAY TRAVEL REST -- SCHREIBER Heavy Sleeping bags Bedspreads Blankets 825-3776 to August 31st winter coats and parkas 549 SizzTin Summer Sales : PHOTO PRINTS - Simcoe Plaza, Terrace Bay TRAVEL REST Highway 17, Schreiber 824-2617 408 Scotia Street Schreiber, Ontario POT 2S0 FREE DELIVERY for Schreiber and Terrace Bay Did You Know?
