				(2) Phlegmatic: This temperament is evidenced by deliberate speech and action and is accompanied by a disinclination for exercise or serious occupations of any kind. The flesh is soft and the eyes lustreless, while the complexion is sallow, pale blond or deep brunet. Phlegmatic people of the extreme type are usually in a kind of semi-comatose condition; they enjoy lethargy just as the choleric take pleasure in excitement and activity. Individuals of the decided phlegmatic type are not far removed from plant creation as regards ambition and initiative. With this temperament energy is lacking even when the features are forceful, and regardless of the proportions or size of the cranium. A marked example of the phlegmatic temperament came to the attention of the author at Torquay, Devonshire, in the person of a native of India who possessed unusually strong features, but whose disposition was so extraordinarily placid that it is doubtful if he would have shown energy or excitement even under severe provocation. The phlegmatic disposition is more usual in tropical or semi-tropical than in temperate climates, as excessive heat precludes the display of great energy. The choleric temperament refers to demonstrative affection, while the phlegmatic implies passive or receptive love or the desire to be loved. The choleric manifest displeasure by loud, forceful and rapid speech, the phlegmatic by long, unbroken silence, and it is difficult to say which of these tendencies is the more objectionable. The one is offensive, the other defensive, but they are equally annoying. With the phlegmatic, the blood does not readily flow from the body into the brain, and those who possess this disposition therefore are seldom excitable or aggressive. The signs of the phlegmatic temperament are:

UNESCO's Director-General highlights key role of education in poverty eradication

October 17, 2003 - Poverty presents a threat to world security that affects each and every one of us, says the Director-General of UNESCO, Koïchiro Matsuura in his message on the occasion of the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty.

Some three billion women and men live on less than two dollars a day. Eight million children die each year as a result of poverty. But poverty is not inevitable, Mr Matsuura added. More
