The only other surefire way to avoid cramps is to prevent them: first, by avoiding the combination of severe stress and unfamiliar movements; and second, by doing a thorough warm-up, stretching, and gradually increasing the intensity of your workouts. All these measures contribute towards optimal coordination. Nutrition Nutrition also plays an important role. The body needs sufficient amounts of calcium and magnesium to support optimal muscular function. Because the body cannot manufacture these two minerals, it must be supplied with them in foods and beverages. An inadequate supply of calcium and magnesium can lead to problems with muscular coordination

They probably got into your veins and are nesting in your heart and lungs now, more likely the lungs than the heart I'd think.

Do you feel a rattling feeling when you take a deep breath in?

The average U.S. worker produces $63,885 of wealth per year, more than their counterparts in all other countries, the International Labor Organization said in its report. Ireland comes in second at $55,986, followed by Luxembourg at $55,641, Belgium at $55,235 and France at $54,609.

The U.S. employee put in an average 1,804 hours of work in 2006, the report said. That compared with 1,407.1 hours for the Norwegian worker and 1,564.4 for the French.

It pales, however, in comparison with the annual hours worked per person in Asia, where seven economies — South Korea, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Hong Kong, China, Malaysia and Thailand — surpassed 2,200 average hours per worker. But those countries had lower productivity rates.

Hmm... A recent UN study showed that Americans (more specific: United States workers) are more productive than anyone else in the entire world, and not just by an inch but by several yards.

It must be all those illegal immigrants stealing our jobs.
