Marine Reptiles
Many millions of years ago, long after the great reptiles had colonized the land, some of them decided to return to the sea. Today, reptiles are not the most common residents of the coral reef, but they are definitely among the most beautiful. Perhaps the most well-known reptiles in the sea are the turtles. There are many different species of sea turtle, ranging in size from only 2 feet to the real giants at over 6 feet in length. Sea turtles lay their eggs on land. They can be seen on the beaches late at night digging a deep hole in the sand. The eggs are deposited and covered over. Several months later, the tiny turtles dig their way to the surface and scramble towards the sea. But a turtle's life is not easy. Only one in a thousand will survive the predators and return to the beach one day. Sea turtles were once killed by the thousands for food. Today, even though many face extinctions they continue to be exploited. Their eggs and shells are in constant demand the world over. Another member of the sea reptile family enjoys full protection. The sea snake is the most venomous snake on Earth. Several sea snake species can be found swimming the world's coral reefs. Some of them are spectacularly colored. Divers are weary of this animal, but the sea snake is timid and will not attach unless provoked. Below is a list of some of the more common reptiles found on the reef.

Scientists and doctors say that about 34 million American are too fat. Why is this? One cause is the kind of food Americans eat. Many Americans like “fast foods”. These foods (such as hamburgers and ice cream) often have fattening things in them. Another cause is the way Americans eat. They often eat little snacks between regular meals. These extra foods add extra fat on the body. A third cause is not enough exercise. Americans like driving everywhere, instead of walking. They often have machines to do a lot of work. Some Americans are also too heavy because of health problems, but for most of those 34 million Americans, the problem is the American style.

The Rules of the Game
You will receive a body. You may like it or hate it a bit but it will be yours for duration of your life on Earth. You will lear6yk,jkl´-n lessons. You are enrolled in a full-time informal school called Life. Each day in this school you have the opportunity to learn lessons. You may like the lessons or think they are irrelevant and stupid. There are no mistakes, only lessons. Growth is a process of experimentation. Failures are as much a part of the process as success. Lessons are repeated until learned. A lesson will be presented to you in various forms until you learn it – then you can go on the next lesson. Learning does not end. There is no part of life that does not contain its lessons. If you are alive, there are lessons to be learned. ‘‘There’’ is no better ‘‘here’’. When your ‘‘there’’ has become a ‘‘here’’, you will simply obtain another ‘‘there’’ that will again look better than ‘‘here’’. Others are only mirrors of you. You cannot love or hate something about ranother person unless it reflects something you love or hate about yourself. What you make of your life is up to you. You have all the tools and resources you need. What you do with them is up to you. The choice is yours. All the answers lie inside of you. The answers to life’s questions lie inside of you. All you need to do is look, listen and trust. You will forget all this.
