:: compare ::

My teachers and lecturers used to tell me, "When you compare two or more stuff, you should compare it wisely.. compare an apple to another apple.. don't compare an apple with an orange"..

Ah, now I know what those people were saying..

So, those who didn't compare wisely is what eh?

Not wise ka?

So, here we go.. comparison of some countries.. the oil price in their country, against their PPP and whether they produce oil or not..

And to be 'nice' to people who compared-apples-with-oranges, in this table, even for those countries that still import oil even though they produce oil, I had just left them still with a tick..

Within 20 minutes, blood pressure decreases, pulse rate drops, body temperature of hands and feet increases.

After 2 hours, the level of nicotine in the system is significantly reduced.

After 8 hours, in the bloodlines, oxygen level increases to normal, and carbon monoxide level drops, allowing larger amount of oxygen for muscles, brains and tissues.

After 24 hours, carbon monoxide levels in the lungs return to those of a non-smoker and the mucus begins to clear. Chance of heart attack is already decreased.

After 48 hours, nicotine leaves the body and taste buds are improved.

After 72 hours, breathing becomes easier, as bronchial tubes relax.

After 96 hours, ALL nicotine by-products is gone from the system. No more physical addictive substance messing with your brain.

After 2–12 weeks, blood circulation improves, and lung functioning increases by 30%.

After 3 months, fertility is improved. Tar stains on fingers and nails are gone!

After 6 months, occurrences of coughing, stuffy nose, tiredness and shortness of breath decreases.

After 1 year, the risk of heart attack falls to about half that of a smoker. Skins and gums are constantly improving, due to the extra oxygen absorbed. Dry skins and premature wrinkles can be naturally reduced.

After 5 years, the chance of lung cancer is almost the same as a non-smoker, together with the chance of getting cancers of the mouth, throat, esophagus, bladder, kidney and pancreas.

After 10 years, the chance of getting coronary heart disease and stroke is the same with those who had never smoked.

Besides that:

1. You can set good example of healthy lifestyle and/or willpower to the younger generations.

2. The bad habit which can affect those around you (including your loved ones), are gone.

3. You save more money (no need to buy cigarettes, no need to pay higher life insurance premiums)

4. You have more energy to do stuff that you love (and hey, by the way, smoking can cause impotency!)

5. Smoking is not cool/hip and not a thing of the rich anymore. 1 billion (out of 1.22 billion) smokers lives outside the developed world
