Members, are you tired of your investments bringing you only a few
percent return each year? Sick of those bloated blue chips? This week we
are bringing you a company which is just the thing for an investor looking
for big returns!

All it takes is one smashing piece of news, one institutional investor taking
notice and a small stock like this will skyrocket!

Here's your chance:

Company: X-tra Petroleum (XTPT)
Current Price: $0.006
Expected price: $0.017 (280%% gain)

In the oil business big news brings big moves, and we are expecting an
explosive announcement! If you are looking for the kind of gains that
count then we advise you to get in early. Here's your chance!

  Re: Womens Self Defense

The reason no experts have replied is due to the fact that they would
understand that defending one's self in a violent situation is based on
staying calm, being in GREAT physical condition (especially if you are
a woman), and then knowing what to attack and when to attack. The only
way to achieve this is to train... hard.... several times a week.
Telling anyone that they can become proficient enough to defend
themselves after a 6 weeks course, or by reading a book or website, is
just a scam.

Hello,

Is there anyone in the London or Essex areas of the UK doing the LDS
training in To-Shin Do. I have just begun and would like to find a training
partner for reasonably regular training sessions.

Regards,
Richard
