Introducing holidays to Los Cristianos
Los Cristianos will see you based in a vibrant resort on the island of Tenerife, surrounded by gorgeous beaches, captivating countryside and a bustling nightlife. On the west coast of Tenerife are many exciting and exclusive resorts, and you'll experience that on Los Cristianos holidays. From wonderful beach treats to fun family attractions, the resort caters perfectly to a variety of holidaymakers, from families to couples. The location of the resort will also give people the chance to explore some of the iconic natural beauty of the Canary Islands, whether through exploring the dramatic inland landscapes of Tenerife, or ferrying over to a neighbouring island to explore a variety of national parks. If you look for a beach break, an island-hopping adventure or a trip filled with outdoor pursuits, you'll never run out of things to do on holidays to Los Cristianos. The hotel Paradise Park Fun Lifestyle certainly gives itself a name to live up to, and provides a facility packed hotel that'll leave you not wanting to leave the hotel!
With there being so many things to do in Los Cristianos, you'll be happy to know that there are places to chill and recharge your batteries. Whether it's with an ice cream in the shade, laying about in the tropical sun, or enjoying the luscious natural surroundings, you'll find it easy to switch off from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. If you don't mind taking a short trip over to Playa de las Americas your efforts will be rewarded in the Mare Nostrum Spa, a world renowned beauty and health spa which offers innovative but very relaxing treatments, the algae body wrap being a particular highlight.
Top Attractions
The highlight of all Los Cristianos attractions has to be the gloriously sandy beach that has seen Los Cristianos become one of the most popular holiday destinations in south Tenerife. Playa de Los Cristianos is a long stretch of golden sand which also has the added appeal of being adjacent to the harbour, should you wish to take a cruise around the bays or head out further to one of the neighbouring islands such as La Gomera. Ideal for catching some rays while relaxing on the shore and perfect for enjoying the ample water sport opportunities for some fun in the sun, the beach of this fantastic resort is a must-visit.
Action and Adventure
There are plenty of things to do in Los Cristianos and with humble beginnings as an old fishing village; you'll find that a lot of the attractions and tours aren't far from the beach or harbour. Luxury can be found upon the pleasure cruises that run frequently around the island, or for a more family oriented feel, glass bottom boats offer a window overlooking the coral and sea life below. However, if you'd prefer to get up close and personal you can always head off on a scuba diving excursion to truly explore the crystal clear waters you'll undoubtedly come to love.
There's plenty of excitement and adventure found on and around the coastal beauty of Los Cristianos, as well as the relaxation of lounging on the soft sand. Those that thrive on adding an active element to their trip will find plenty of things to get their pulses racing, with a myriad of water sports available. From diving and snorkelling to sailing and jet skiing, Los Cristianos and the neighbouring resort of Costa Adeje will have you occupied from the moment you arrive. For something a little more sedate on your Los Cristianos holidays, strolling around the harbour and marina will welcome you to some charming bars and alluring eateries, serving up cool drinks and traditional cuisine. Others will find enough joy in relaxing on the sand, with Playa de las Vistas arguably the most attractive strip of sand in the area, while the beaches of nearby Playa de las Americas will also serve beach bums well. A series of boat trip options can also provide a sedate atmosphere to your trip - some of the most exhilarating include dolphin and whale watching adventures.
For Families
The great thing about Tenerife is that there's plenty of scope to explore and discover the various areas and hidden gems that the island withholds, making for an exciting holiday that will keep the whole family entertained. Los Cristianos things to do will include sunbathing on the beach or joining in with the numerous activities the shoreline has to offer, but heading inland will give you a change of scenery, Monkey Park being a great place for the kids to check out some of the tropical wildlife that inhabits the island. Shining in the sun, the white church acts as a focal point for fiestas and concerts which provide a good dose of bright colours to the already vibrant greens, blues and gold of the beach and surrounding areas if you fancy spicing things up.
Families will find a great deal of joy from spending their holidays in Los Cristianos. There are countless wonderful and comfortable hotels from 4-star resorts to large apartments to host families and couples. Those with young kids, as well as the young at heart, should head to Siam Park, a fantastic themed waterpark. Meanwhile, Monkey Park is a great and informative zoo that's home to many friendly and interesting primates. Castillo San Miguel is another great family attraction, hosting medieval shows. A stay in Los Cristianos also gives holidaymakers the opportunity to hop on a ferry and explore some more of the Canary Islands, among them La Gomera. Holidays to La Gomera are home to some stunning natural scenery landscapes, with the crown jewel found in the form of the Garajonay National Park – a perfect place for nature lovers to trek around. The island is also home to some wonderful beaches, all of which see smaller crowds than those on Tenerife and Gran Canaria. When back at your resort, if the sun has set, head out into the bustling nightlife enjoyed in Los Cristianos after enjoying hearty seafood paella around the marina.
Wine and Dine
Having been adapted for mass tourism, it comes as no surprise Tenerife offers a wide variety of foods from different cultures and countries, from traditional English food to Lebanese cuisine, there's not much you can't find in Los Cristianos. Unsurprisingly, fresh seafood is pretty common among the waterfront restaurants and cafes that line the promenade, but if you're up to venturing a little further from the beach you'll be ecstatic to find European, Asian and African style foods all within walking distance from the shores. Pubs and bars are equally prominent in the area, although they are still just as diverse with everything from Irish pubs to traditional tapas bars.
After experiencing one of the many treatments in Mare Nostrum Spa, you should probably check out the bustling nightlife while you are there. Although the list of Los Cristianos attractions includes numerous bars and pubs for you to enjoy a drink in, there isn't quite the party atmosphere that you'll find in this neighbouring resort of Playa de las Americas. Magic Lounge Bar and Tramps will get the heart racing and feet a-moving while playing some of the best club anthems around, while Soul Suite and Sax Bar introduce live acts into their domain for a more personal approach; either way, you'll be able to throw some shapes and dance the night away.

The Crossroads of the Aether
I finished my goggles last night. Well, probably not finished but usable. I'll probably add some more bits and pieces, a pressure guage, some copper here and there as I'm inspired. Starting from this...
I ended up with these...
I was at my favorite cool clothing store (that I can't afford to shop at) recently looking at top hats. Got talking with one of the salespersons and it turns out he makes and mods goggles, so we ended up trading ideas back and forth for a while. Then he said he had some old Styrofoam heads in the back if I wanted one for fitting hats and masks. So i walked out with a free head. I've named it Hedly in tribute to one of the greatest movie villains ever.

It's 2011! No flying cars yet, but you can beam video games directly onto your Wii or DSi thanks to download services, so that'll have to do. And speaking of those games, there's a whole bunch of new ones this week, including an indie game compilation from Jason Rohrer and sneezing animals.
This week's games are as follows:
On DSiWare this week, we have Alt-Play: Jason Rohrer Anthology (Sabarasa, 1-2 players, 200 DSi Points), Word Searcher 2 (Digital Leisure, 1 player, 500 DSi Points) and Music On: Drums (Abylight, 1 player, 500 DSi Points). Alt-Play is a collection of three indie games by Jason Rohrer in one neat bundle: Passage, Gravitation, and Between. A must-buy if you like games that are a bit outside the box. Word Searcher 2 is more word searching fun (yay!), while Music On: Drums lets you play around with over 150 different kinds of percussion sounds to make some fresh beats.
WiiWare has a few titles this week: Sneezies (Chillingo, 1 player, 500 Wii Points), Ghost Mania (Legendo Entertainment, 1-2 players, Wii Points) and a demo of previous WiiWare release Robox (DreamBox Games, 1 player). Sneezies is a puzzle game where you use sneezing powder to make creatures stuck in bubbles free themselves by … well, sneezing. Ghost Mania is also a puzzle game that features colored ghosts you have to match up. It's like … well, any other falling block puzzle game.
No Virtual Console this week. Apparently, it's hungover from its New Year's party with WiiWare and DSiWare.
Sneezies, Ghost Mania and the Robox demo are available for download off the Wii Shop Channel, while Alt-Play: Jason Rohrer Anthology, Word Searcher 2 and Music On: Drums are available for download off the DSi Shop Channel.
Check back next week for the latest round of digital releases for the Wii and DSi. Until then, happy gaming!Powered by Sidelines

Caterham have axed technical director Mark Smith and formed a new committee in a bid to address their disastrous start to the year.
The Leafield-based marque find themselves languishing at the foot of the constructors' championship, with their car noticeably slower than that of close rivals Marussia.
That has led to Smith's departure and the formation of a technical committee that will oversee all technical and operational aspects of the team's activities on and off track.
Caterham have confirmed Smith will not be directly replaced, and instead John Iley, Jody Egginton and Gerry Hughes will now each take responsibility for specific areas of the team's activities.
Iley, previously performance director, is now head of performance engineering; former deputy technical director Egginton is now head of design and manufacturing, whilst Hughes, who joined early this year as chief engineer has become head of track operations.

Team principal Cyril Abiteboul said: "It was obviously a tough decision to see someone of Mark's calibre go.
"But we have identified the need to restructure as a key aspect of increasing our on-track performance. Forming a new technical committee will allow us to do exactly that.
"After investing last year in our new factory, and over the winter in aerodynamic development capacity, the new structure gives three specialists we are lucky to have with us the opportunity to use their experience, passion and dedication to help us progress.
"We are not happy with our current performance levels and John, Jody and Gerry, with my full support and that of our shareholders, staff and partners, are the right people to help take us forward."

|[flow] end of life of the WebContinuation
|Tue, 29 Jul 2003 12:37:31 GMT
Hi all, some 2nd thoughts on my earlier proposal: > 4/ dispose() the wrapped continuation object upon invalidation > > I'ld like the ContinuationsManager to check if the wrapped > continuation is implementing Disposable upon invalidation of it's > wrapper WebContinuation. > > While at it it might preform the same service on the wrapped > 'userObject' (although I have no direct need for this, it seems a > logical extension of the reasoning) (for the full context read the current flow code or the report that introduced this: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=xml-cocoon-dev&m=105913410112209&w=2) the adapted proposal: upon creation of the WebContinuation we currently have typically (inside your own Interpreter impl of the callFunction) WebContinuation wk = continuationsMgr.createWebContinuation( yourImplSpecificContinuationObject, itsParentWebCont, TIMETOLIVE); where we could add a forth argument to the method that allows (optionally: could be null) to register an object to be called in the event of invalidation of the wrapping WebContinuation... so we would get interface ContinuationDisposer{ void disposeContinuation(Object o); } plus the new ContinuationsManager gets modified to public WebContinuation createWebContinuation(Object cont, WebContinuation parent, int ttl, ContinuationDisposer disposer) together with the additional check inside the invalidation process that is now not biassing it towards considering Avalon components: [inside ContinuationsManagerImpl.java#_invalidate(WebContinuation)] if (wk.getDisposer() != null) { wk.getDisposer().disposeContinuation(wk.getContinuation); } which requires the WebContinuation to be changed so it could keep the reference to this new Disposer, and the most possibly hide the above trick inside it's own invalidate() method. My suggestion would then be that those Interpreter implementations that require this 'notification of cleanup' mechanism would opt for imlementing the disposer interface themselves (keeping in one place the knowledge of both start and end of life) what do others think? -marc= -- Marc Portier http://outerthought.org/ Outerthought - Open Source, Java & XML Competence Support Center Read my weblog at http://radio.weblogs.com/0116284/ firstname.lastname@example.com email@example.com

That's the kind of convoluted story you get when you start messing with temporal physics, but who cares when it looks this good? Activision and developer Beenox of Shattered Dimensions fame showed off Spidey's latest time-twisted adventure this weekend at WonderCon in San Francisco, and now we get a chance to see what we've missed. Looking at the trailer and the screens, it looks as if the game is looking to play around a bit with 2099 continuity. What if the Alchemax corporation wasn't supposed to be in complete control of 2099 New York? What if that entire dark storyline was the result of some terrible event in the past? It seems a bit sketchy, fiddling about with established continuity like that, but they do have Spider-Man 2099 co-creator Peter David handling writing duties, so I'm sure he won't do anything foolish. Well, nothing too foolish, at least.

The Search
I was endlessly wandering in the dark
Searching for a little spark
Seeking for something to give me heat
In the cold and looming street
I saw a light
Felt a strike
Deep in my body
Within me
The light's getting brighter
The strike's getting warmer
Still in my body
Deep within me
The light was you
And so is the spark
The brightness is us
You, within me

- Notes:
- Significance: The Recreation Shelter on Islands 2 and 3 was part of the last active phase of construction at the Ellis Island U.S. Immigration Station during the 1930s. The Recreation Building and two Recreation Shelters were designed for Ellis Island alongside the New Immigration Building (1934-1936) and Ferry Building (1934), all of which were financed through New Deal funding. The construction of these new facilities contributed to a reconfiguration of the island into clearly demarcated spaces for patients, immigrants and deportees, a shift that recognized the changing dynamics of immigration in the United States during the years of the Great Depression. This concern for the physical and mental well-being of the islands temporary inhabitants was tied to larger national and international concerns about public health and social services. In 1933 the federally-appointed Ellis Island Committee completed a report that recommended widespread improvements to the Immigration facilities, among which was the development of adequate accommodations for recreation. Plans were initiated to make the new space created by filling in the lagoon between Islands 2 and 3 into an open-air recreation area, and to build a Recreation Building and Recreation Shelter at its west end. The Recreation Building and Recreation Shelters (a nearly identical structure on Island 1 was used by deportees) were constructed simultaneously in large part because of a new recognition of the need to accommodate patient, inmate, and immigrant leisure on the three-island complex. During World War II, the building was used by the United States Coast Guard, which also made use of the facilities from 1951 to 1954, after the United States Public Health Service vacated on March 1, 1951. The Ellis Island United States Immigration Station ceased operation on November 12, 1954 and the complex was largely unoccupied until it was made part of the Statue of Liberty National Monument in 1965, under the administration of the United States Department of the Interior, National Park Service.

Please use the following steps to determine whether you need to fill out a call slip in the Prints and Photographs Reading Room to view the original item(s). In some cases, a surrogate (substitute image) is available, often in the form of a digital image, a copy print, or microfilm.
Is the item digitized? (A thumbnail (small) image will
be visible on the left.)
Yes, the item is digitized. Please use the digital image in preference to requesting the original. All images can be viewed at a large size when you are in any reading room at the Library of Congress. In some cases, only thumbnail (small) images are available when you are outside the Library of Congress because the item is rights restricted or has not been evaluated for rights restrictions.
As a preservation measure, we generally do not serve an original item when a digital image is available. If you have a compelling reason to see the original, consult with a reference librarian. (Sometimes, the original is simply too fragile to serve. For example, glass and film photographic negatives are particularly subject to damage. They are also easier to see online where they are presented as positive images.)
No, the item is not digitized. Please go to #2.
Do the Access Advisory or Call Number fields above indicate that
a non-digital surrogate exists, such as microfilm or copy prints?
Yes, another surrogate exists. Reference staff can direct you to this surrogate.
No, another surrogate does not exist. Please go to #3.
If you do not see a thumbnail image or a reference to another surrogate, please fill out a call slip in the Prints and Photographs Reading Room. In many cases, the originals can be served in a few minutes. Other materials require appointments for later the same day or in the future. Reference staff can advise you in both how to fill out a call slip and when the item can be served.
To contact Reference staff in the Prints and Photographs Reading Room, please use our Ask A Librarian service or call the reading room between 8:30 and 5:00 at 202-707-6394, and Press 3.

University research focuses on the early diagnosis of autism
World Autism Day (today) is an opportunity to highlight the need for vital research into the condition, according to a researcher at the University of Sheffield.
Sheffield Autism Research Lab is currently working towards developing new techniques which could be used to enable easier and earlier diagnosis of autism – a lifelong developmental disability that affects how a person communicates with and relates to those around them.
Dr Elizabeth Milne, of Sheffield Autism Research Lab, said: "It is vitally important to raise awareness of autism. Autism affects 1 in 100 people, it is a life-long condition and can be very debilitating for people affected.
"World Autism Day means different things to different people. For many it is a chance to celebrate the creativity and diversity of autism. For others it is an opportunity to raise awareness of the condition.
"Here in Sheffield, we are working towards developing new techniques that can be used to enable earlier and easier diagnosis. Specifically we are working to find a brain-based signal for autism that can be used to identify individuals who have, or are likely to have, autism.
"We are also studying sensory function in autism in an attempt to understand why people with autism often experience heightened sensitivity to some sensory stimuli. In addition, we are collaborating with social psychologists in order to understand the public perception of autism, and to develop interventions that will improve the public perception of autism."
Dr Milne added: "Living with autism, or with a family member who has autism poses a number of challenges. Researchers and the medical community are working hard to understand the causes of autism and to develop techniques and interventions that can provide support to people with autism and their families.
"There is still a long way to go in this regard though, which is why raising awareness of autism through World Autism Day is so important.
"The amount of funding for autism research differs between countries. According to a report produced by the Institute of Education, in 2010 the US allocated £75.79 per person with autism to autism research, whereas the UK allocated just £4.26 per person with autism.
"World Autism Day is an opportunity to highlight autism as a priority area for practitioners, clinicians, local authorities and researchers and to encourage the government to allocate more resources to this condition."

Today, Microsoft announced a new XMPP Gateway for Office Communications Server 2007 R2 that enables interoperability with Cisco Jabber/XMPP and Google Talk, along with new licensing options for Office Communications Server customers to connect with AOL and
Windows Live (read the details of the announcement).
To get more details about how all of this works we sat down with Ashima Singhal (Senior Product Manager) and Albert Kooiman (Senior Product Manager) from the Communication Server team to discuss the news focusing on Instant Messaging (IM) interoperability between different networks.
Albert explains the architecture to enable the bridges between the different IM services including AOL, Live, Yahoo! and GTalk (XMPP) as well as with IBM Sametime and Cisco Jabber. Then Ashima shows a demo of various public IM clients communicating and sharing presence/status information with Office Communicator.

Newborns may come into the world as defenseless creatures totally dependent on their parents for protection, but their startle reflex also has a protective function. Learn more about this reflex, including a definition and examples, with this review of this involuntary movement in newborns.

The Definition of the Startle Reflex

If you want to see the startle reflex in action simply observe newborns when they feel as if they might fall down or when they hear an unsettling or loud noise, such as a dog barking or a door shutting. When newborns are exposed to startling environmental stimuli, they will instinctively extend their arms and legs, open their fingers and arch their backs. Then, newborns will clench their fists and pull their arms to their chests. Babies exposed to loud noises may also cry, as parents know well.

The Invisible Effects of the Startle Reflex

The startle reflex doesn't end with this reaction, however. Babies who hear loud sounds may also experience effects their parents can't see, such as an increased heartbeat or heavy breathing. Some babies are more sensitive than others. For sensitive babies, even a light touch may bring on the startle reflex at times.

Other Names for the Startle Reflex

The startle reflex is also known as the startle reaction or the Moro reflex. This alternative name for the reflex comes from the German pediatrician Ernst Moro.

Testing Out the Startle Reflex

Parents will probably test out this reflex many times accidentally, as loud noises are sometimes unavoidable, especially if you have pets and other children in the home. However, parents should never intentionally startle their child to see if the newborn has the reflex. Also, parents should not be concerned if babies don't perform the startle reflex in response to every loud noise. This doesn't indicate there's a problem with the baby. The child simply may not startle easily or may do so in a subtle manner.

When the Startle Reflex Disappears

Parents should note that the startle reflex disappears when babies reach about 2 to 4 months of age. If your baby never startles, however, you should contact your health care provider. This could be a sign that something is wrong with your child's neurological system. On the other hand, you might not be observing your baby as carefully as you think you are. A pediatrician should be able to determine if a baby's startle reflex is off.

Wrapping Up

The startle reflex is one of many involuntary movements babies have upon entering the world. These instinctive movements have helped babies bond to family members and get the love and care they need for millennia.

Do they still have that limit of - what was it, 10k?
Why? - Mobile devices have limited screens. Long pages on small screens are confusing, because users can't see the big picture and feel lost. Some mobile devices with limited memory still can't handle pages that are more than a few Kb but, in essence, the 10Kb limit was set for usability reasons. Some screens may be big enough to display pages with more content. The 10Kb limit ensures that the page is still usable on devices with small screens.
How? - Focus on the piece of information that you want to deliver, and build the page around it.
More Information - Severity: low.
Useful improvements are possible.
Category: Keep it small.
Smaller sites make users happier by costing less in time and money.
Best practice: PAGE_SIZE_LIMIT
Ensure that the overall size of page is appropriate to the memory limitations of the device.
I remember us struggling with that.

Wyvern of Wye
this wiki
The Wyvern of Wye was a dragon-like creature from River Wye that terrorised the West Country sometime during the lifetime of King Arthur. The beast was fought by Sir Cadogan, one of the Knights of the Round Table, who bravely engaged it in combat. The Wyvern, however, was too strong for Cadogan, and it managed to eat Cadogan's horse, break his wand, and melt his sword and visor with fire before Cadogan could escape. The two then had a second, shorter encounter after Cadogan managed to procure another mount, an overweight pony that was grazing in a nearby meadow. The Wyvern bent its head to try to gobble up the knight and his new steed, but Cadogan's damaged, misfiring wand stabbed into its tongue and ignited the fumes from its stomach, causing the beast to explode.
Behind the scenes
- The wyvern is a mythological creature similar to the dragon, often distinguished from the latter by only having two wings and a single pair of limbs while a dragon is supposed to have two wings and four limbs, this would mean that all the dragons shown throught the series are thecnically Wyverns.
- Sir Cadogan has a portrait at Hogwarts
- Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (Mentioned only)
- Pottermore (Mentioned only)

Speedriding, a unique hybrid of paragliding and skiing, has gained popularity in the last few years, as well as reputation for one of the riskiest things a human can do. While this video from Mike Swanson and his friends Luca and 'Ippo' is as much about soul and stoke as it is about shredding, make no mistake, speedriding isn't as easy as these guys make it look.
Shot over two months during the past winter in Valfrejus, France, (near Savoy) we witness the riders in or near lift-served terrain, cruising over wide open bowls, as well as scoring some untouched powder. It's nice to see that speedriding doesn't necessarily have to be in the realm of total impossibility. Our biggest question: where are all the other skiers and snowboarders? It looks like a blue-bird powder day to us!

Come Near
By Jeff Shumate © 2009
I came to you or you came to me,
I really don't know, it doesn't matter to me,
Just be close, come near to me,
I just want to look, in the only eyes that I see.
Me into yours, yours into mine,
May our own two eyes slowly intertwine,
What do you see in me, and I in you,
It's different today and tomorrow too.
One thing is certain
My eyes always see you,
You're the woman I love,
The one I want above—
All others…

I just wanna cry
my heart is full of pain
I have no one to talk to
about all these feelings in my soul
and thoughts in my brain
every time I'm saddened
no tear comes out of my eyes
all I get is pains and headaches
around where my tears must have dried
somewhere along this long road of misery , suffering,and constant nightmares I HAD to walk
I lost how to be human
and now I'm starting to feel
a very distinct loss
I know I sound weak, but I really wanna cry
just for anyone to hold me and tell me I'll be aright
I just want the affection that I've seen , living without it makes you want to die
I don't want to burden anyone but for once I just wanna cry
just put my pains out there for someone to hear
my if I told anyone around me this they'd run away in fear
so I am alone and I suffer in silence
alone in my dark world
on a miserable island

Outstanding I can relate to this
same with colinb, i can also relate. you're not alone.
Im sorry thank you feel this way, my fellow poet! Ive expierienced this feeling more times thn i can count. Sometimes it feels like the only way to express myself is through my writing. Just know you're not alone and you will always have kind writers who can relate :) hang in there and if you cant cry, then let it all out in your amazingly written poetry! :) i hope things get better. Keep writing!
I hate for anyone to feel alone and miserable even though like everyone said I can relate. I'm always available to try to help people so I can always listen to your problems. I hope you feel better soon I hope that you find the help you need. Also maybe try writing in a journal it may help later it's one thing that can help get rid of those feelings.
People are programmed to only think about themselves, only worry about what disrupts their daily lives and not looking outside their own bubble to see if they could help others. I'm not saying al people are like this though. Others go out of their way to help others.
It was a good poem: it had the right amount of emotion in it and the words flowed well together.
Just be sure that all your 'i's are capitals. In stanza 4, line two, is 'alight' meant to be 'alright'? I may be reading it wrong though- I'm not perfect. Far from it, actually. Also 'is' in stanza 2, line three should be 'are'.
Good job :)
I relate to this sooo much. Please keep writing poems about it. It'll help you. Trust me.
You aren't weak, you can be so strong with this feeling, you can smash it up and tear it from you, if you wanted. I just about manage it myself but it can be fun.
I don't think technically this is a poem or anything, like a long complaint but the feeling is brutal enough to really get me reading it.
i really didn't think it was poem either because at first i couldn't find a way to write it that made sense or would get people to get my point, but then i just started writing how i was feeling and it came out like a poem . anyway thankyou for your comment :)
strike my heart... I truly do love this poem.
Oh my gosh I just want to cry for you then wrap you in a big hug! I normally don't like poems but your's moved me. You have an ability to make the reader feel you and that is the true sign of a writer. I only wish I could make my work half as good. I will definitely read more of yours, just have to go to work now. Great job.

I'm always amazed at the money that's thrown into cutting-edge science. The investments have given us super-powerful computers, the space shuttle, incredible advancements in medical technologies, and all manner of consumer products. Though I'm not that much of a space buff, the science of the SETI project has always interested me. There's something both inspiring and more than a little creepy about an array of antennae listening for signals coming from extra-terrestrial lifeforms. Maybe someday, we'll find out…
Nah, it'll never happen. Not as long as Groundtruther is in business. After listening to this music, I'm fairly certain that Messrs. Hunter, Previte and Medeski have figured out how to intercept the incoming signals: and the results are being filtered through their instruments.
In fact, I can now reveal that I was lucky enough to attend the recording session. The event's broken down location made me a little nervous, but my fears vanished once I stepped inside.
The three musicians had set up their equipment in a huge abandoned warehouse. Apparently, they've discovered that a cheap & easy way to pick up the signals is to wrap some tinfoil around a big chrome pipe that's suspended up near the ceiling (Shhh…the secret technical term for this is a "Warsaw Radio Mast." Calibration of the receiving mast is quite simple, the tinfoil wrapping just needs to be slid down the pipe in either direction). Some heavy shielded cables snaked from one end of the pipe down to a black box located behind John Medeski's mellotron. Word has it that the box holds a very sophisticated amplifier that properly boosts the incoming waveforms to useful levels. The thing must take a lot of power because fat lines are taped to the floor, running all the way out to the back of the building where several diesel generators are located.
Despite all of this high & low technology, the music is surprisingly organic (and loud!). Much of this is due to the group's collective ability to groove hard no matter what abusive sheets of sound are slung out from the other members — basslines swoop, blirpy noises blurp, guitar figures attempt to respond before decaying into the distance, and the moog drops handfuls of sound shards all over the cracked concrete floor. Those adjectives taken in total might imply a kind of chaos but the music holds together much more tightly than that.
In fact, by the time the guys begin to close out the first hour, it seems that they try to clear the air of abstraction a bit by rocking out with "Empire State." This must have pissed off one of the locals because somebody punctured the generators' diesel tanks…and there went the power.
There is no record of what transpired during the time between this catastrophic outage and the official restart of the recording session (the guys wouldn't let me into the back room), but clearly Groundtruther was inspired. Without the background whirrr of those engines, the instruments really shimmer in the wet echo of that warehouse. John Medeski switches to piano, Previte to an all acoustic kit, and Hunter to the acoutic guitar. Undeterred by the enforced shift of aural venue, the level of interplay is ratcheted upwards. Piano arpeggios chime into the air as the acoustic guitar attempts to fashion a mating pattern, and the drums shift roles from rhythmic to melodic instrument and back. There are indeed moments of seeming chaos and violence ("Tectonic Revolution"), creepy soundscapes (just what the hell is going on with the chanting in "Cold Seep"?), as well as extreme & ominous beauty ("Subduction Mode").
After going over my notes, I discovered that a few facts needed to be straighted out. I wanted to ask Charlie Hunter to comment on the amazing versatility of Groundtruther, especially given the adversity endured that evening in the warehouse. Also at the top of my list were the Warsaw Radio Mast and that black box.
My calls were not returned.Powered by Sidelines

"When it just doesn't feel good" is the answer. It's your soul telling your head "It's time to make that move".
Author: beingwithronash
Anita Moorjani "Dying To Be Me: My Journey from Cancer, to Near Death, to True Healing" March 23rd 12pm EST 424-757-1425
12pm Anita Moorjani was born in Singapore of Indian parents, moved to Hong Kong at the age of two, and has lived in Hong Kong most of her life. Because of her background and British education, she is multi lingual and, from the age of two, grew up speaking English, Cantonese and an Indian dialect simultaneously. She had been working in the corporate field for several years before being diagnosed with cancer in April of 2002. Her fascinating and moving near-death experience in early 2006 has tremendously changed her perspective on life. Her life is now ingrained with the depths and insights she gained while in the other realm.
As a result of her near death experience, Anita is often invited to speak at conferences and events to share her insights. She is also a frequent speaker at universities, particularly for their department of behavioral sciences, speaking on topics such as: dealing with terminal illness; facing death; psychology of spiritual beliefs; etc. She is the embodiment of the truth that we all have the inner power and wisdom to overcome even life's most adverse situations, as she is the living proof of this possibility.
Anita currently lives in Hong Kong with her husband, and when she's not traveling and speaking at conferences, she works as an intercultural consultant for multi-national corporations that are based in Hong Kong.
Some topics Anita may discuss include:
- How to eliminate fear from a medical diagnosis and from our language.
- What medical providers need to know about cancer and healing.
- Why we have nothing to fear of death and what lies beyond.
- How worry consumed her life and how her experience changed that.
- Her experience with cancer, why the treatments didn't work, what she would have done differently, and what she wants patients to know.

So in my last blog I outlined the real danger of government spending without a balanced budget. If the government continues to borrow and spend, borrow and spend, borrow and spend, pretty soon Uncle Sam won't be able to borrow any more. If that happens – if foreign governments don't lend the U.S. money, if investors don't buy U.S. Government Bonds – how will the government pay for its expenditures? This is a difficult question, and one we hope we never have to answer, but rather than cross our fingers and put our heads in the sand, we need to face this potential reality head on. We know that the government's going to have to do something, so here's what you can do to be prepared:
The first thing the government can do is balance the budget by making sure the amount going out is the same as what's coming in. It could do this by reducing what goes out, or by increasing what comes in. It could reduce what goes out by reducing the national debt, thus reducing the amount paid in interest. It could also reduce funding for programs like Medicare, unemployment benefits, and financial aid for education. Here are some things to do in case this happens:
Increase contributions to your retirement accounts – Medicare is a primary source of medical insurance for most Americans age 65 and over. Since medical expenses are expected to increase when you are retired, if less is available from this federal source of health insurance, you will need more personal savings to compensate.
Increase the size of your emergency fund – Losing your job unexpectedly is hard enough, but realizing there may be little assistance from the federal government could make it harder.
Increase savings for college – I think we all appreciate the benefits of a college education, so don't let a lack of federal financial aid be a barrier to your child's future.
Another step toward balancing the budget could be increasing revenue, which could mean raising taxes. If the government does have to raise taxes, here's what you can do to reduce the potential impact:
Contribute to a Roth IRA – Funds contributed to a Roth IRA are contributed on an after-tax basis, so go ahead and get the taxes out of the way now so that you won't have to worry about higher taxes in the future.
Fund a cash-value life insurance policy – Life insurance agents have been saying this for years, but the truth is cash value is accessible tax free through policy loans.
Pay off your mortgage – When you sell a primary residence that you've lived in for two of the previous five years you can exclude up to $250,000 ($500,000 if married filing joint) in capital gains.
Invest in capital assets – Currently, capital gains are taxed favorably when assets are held longer than a year. Because of the popularity of capital gains tax treatment, this tax rate will likely remain lower than your income tax rate.
The U.S. government also has the power to do something no one else on earth has the power to do: print U.S. dollars. (Some have attempted to assist the government in this enterprise, but without success.) If Uncle Sam can't borrow money, and if he can't raise it by levying more taxes, he'll simply print more. When the U.S. prints more money, the dollar loses value and things get more expensive. What's that called again?
Inflation (in•fla•tion/inˈflāSHən/) noun: A general increase in prices and fall in the purchasing value of money.
Inflation in the U.S. has a historical average of 3%, but there have been periods of time when it has been much higher than that. To reduce the impact of a potentially high rate of inflation, consider the following:
Invest Internationally – Whether it is bonds, stocks, or real estate, investing in assets that are valued in foreign currency is favorable when the U.S. dollar weakens.
Invest in Commodities – In an inflationary environment, assets such as gold and oil may cost more in the future, so why not buy them now and take advantage of their increase in price. There are several ways to invest in commodities, but the simplest may be using traditional mutual funds and/or exchange traded funds (ETFs).
Invest in Treasury Inflation Protected Securities (TIPS) – It may sound ironic, but if the government is going to print more money to pay for its obligations, you might as well be one of them. Since TIPS are designed to generate a yield which adjusts for inflation, Uncle Sam will pay you more to make up for the fact that what it is paying you is worth less. Now isn't that generous?
Now as I've said already, I hope that none of this comes to pass, but as my boss always says, "It's better to hope for the best and plan for the worst." Do yourself and your loved ones a favor and be as prepared as possible.

I know that a lot of people don't like Franklin Veaux, but I find
this article
helpful in a general sense.
Not a lot of specific practical advice, though. The advice seems to be, don't just endure it or you'll be miserable, but don't forbid it either. Allow it, but then ask for reassurance, and retrain your brain so that men aren't seen a threat because you trust that your partner will make decisions that take your well-being into account, that she loves you, etc.
Ultimately, I think a way to get over it will be for you to get over the fear of not being the best. If you can reach a point where you can think "if the guy is better in bed than me, stronger, better looking, and his dick is better... so what? Good for her."
For that, you need to know what's being triggered, what you're afraid of, and follow the train of thoughts.
You're worried, for instance, that a guy might have a bigger penis. Why? What bad outcome would follow? It itself, it's not scary, unlike you have the largest penis in the world some guys will be better-endowed. Why is it scary? Do you fear it would make you less valuable in her mind? Do you fear she might think "why did I bother with him? He has a small penis!"
Fear don't have to be rational to be crippling, so be willing to admit that you're afraid of something that, when you say it out loud, sounds ridiculous.
Whoever she dates, he or she will be better than you in some ways and worse in others. You're the sum of everything. Is the size of the other guy's penis scarier to you than whether he shares an interest with her you don't share, and they can talk about it for hours? Or the idea that, say, they are a similar size and she can wear his clothes?
These examples are random. But penis size is random too. It's just been ingrained that bigger is better, which depends on the taste of the woman, and the skill of the man. And I think that has a lot to do with why you don't have a problem with female lovers: they don't have a penis at all.
Although, they actually might have several. And if you're so worried about size, well, the penises they might have are probably bigger than yours, because they rarely sell average-sized toys. And if all else fails, they have fists, too.

Third night of rioting at prison complex near Doncaster
5 November 2010 Last updated at 01:06 GMT
An investigation will begin into violence at a prison complex in South Yorkshire.
A third night of rioting has occurred after disturbances broke out at Moorlands Young Offenders' Institution- a facility on the same site.
The Prison Service says more than 50 inmates refused to return to their cells during the evening. They surrendered after officers in riot gear were called in.
More than 80 inmates have been moved to other prisons because of damage caused during the disturbances.
