Wow, the number 19 sound so.......so.....so.........old.
Well, thats life.
You know how 'older' people always say 'I'll always be 18.' or 'when I was 18...', and now my 18 is almost gone too! I can said those sentences too in an hours time! oh man, so old....
so when I'm 20 plus, 30 plus, 40 plus etc, will I say
'oh i did blablabla when I was 18.' or
'I wish i look like when I'm 18.' or
'I still look the same as when I was 18.'(haha!)?
So how's my 18th year of my life?
Will I wanna be remembered as the 18 years old cinyi?
Well, i guess this past year was quite alright. Its just the right balance between work and play.
When i first turned 18, I was still studying for my A levels prelim. Followed by the A level stress, blablabla. ):
When I became 18 and a half, my A level was over, and I'm touring at almost the other end of the world. (:
and then its the longest holiday ever, filled with good and bad job experiences plus many many many fun times with friends and families. :D
so the 18 years old cinyi was a carefree one.
Although many times I'll be whining and complaining of the big and small things of life.
But today, at this moment before i turn 19, I to thank hmm, the universe. (cos I don't have a religion).
Sometimes, I secretly grumble about how my parents are not THAT rich.
I'll be secretly feeling grumpy and jealous bout people who are born with a silver spoon.
But I should be and I'm grateful that my parents always try their best to give me everything I want. I led a higher-than-average lifestyle, at least I don't have to worry bout my 3 meals a day, and have enough to spend on clothes, food and almost any other thing i want.
Most importantly, I want to thank the universe for giving me such lovely and cute parents who love me more than anything else in the world.
I'm also thankful that I have a completely family.
Sometimes, or most of the times, I'll be complaining bout my
of course, i should take note of my body, cos a steadily increase of body weight is always a bad sign.
But, I think I should be grateful that I have a normal body, with all organs and body parts intact with me, perfectly. (thank mummy for giving birth to a normal and healthy baby)
I should be grateful that I can eat normally, or rather, i should be thankful that i have food to eat.
能吃是福! (:
compared to children starving to death or eating sand to filled their hunger on the other end of the world.
and bout my look, no matter how cliche the saying of 'nobody is perfect, and we should just love the way we are.' is, its true.
I should be grateful that Im not the worst looking person on earth. (I'm not right? 0.0)
Sometimes, I complain about my friends, get upset bout the smallest things, blabla. In some darkest moment, I think that nobody ever understands me.
But, I should be grateful that I even have friends, not one, not two, but Im pretty sure its a double digit. ^^
and its not those friend-friends, but really FRIENDS, that i can open up to. Friends that i know they will company me through my life journey. Friends that i know i can count on them to catch me when i fall.
I should just be grateful that I'm living as a human being on this planet at this century.
ok, so just now i went to celebrate my birthday with my parents.
I think its the first time I'm actually not eating diner with them on my actual birthday.
I feel a little bad,
but they have 18 years already!
and they want me to have fun with my friends, and I want to have fun with my friends too!
(Im soooo excited bout tomorrow!)
i previously blog about this restaurant before, so yea..
too busy eating *nonnomnonm*
emoing~ putting one candle only~ alone~
I'm a happy girl! (:
this is taken when I'm really blowing the candles -.-
Happy 19th birthday, Chen XinYi!!

Great hospitality in a luxury boutique hotel
My wife and I spent 3 nights in the penthouse suite and we loved it! The hotel has lots of luxurious touches - lots of marble, beautiful bathrooms, high-end bath products. The penthouse suite is a big room with a huge outdoor patio with an outdoor jacuzzi tub. There's a desk, mini fridge, closet, and safe. Big breakfast spread every morning. There's plenty of parking. Kostas is a wonderful man - super friendly and helpful. He gave us some great suggestions and routes for touring the island - and his recommendations were perfect. We spent 2 days driving all around the island, exploring cool villages and ancient sites. The hotel is a 10-15 minute walk from the main port area - it was an easy walk, and being outside of the main area meant that the area around the hotel was quiet at night. Thanks Kostas and staff for a great stay!

A beautiful holiday in this loved hotel
The hotel is perfect , has all things thai you need. kostantino and the staff are very helpful, kind, that gave us valuable advice to better enjoy our holiday, always with a smile! every morning has a very abundant breakfast, rich in both salty and sweet. The hotel is near by foot from centre of naxos ( Hora). for the whole week they lent us an umbrella to take to the beaches without services and beach towels every morning. in short, I recommend this hotel has everyone, you will be fine!
|AliceTue 21 Aug, 2018
Wonderful Suite
Amazing suite view, very clean and comfortable. The breakfast is very good and varied, the yogurt is the best of naxos. The hotel is 20 minutes to the the port and 5/8 minutes to the beach. The staff is very kind and meticulous to inform to everything.
|SandroWed 15 Aug, 2018
Thank you
For the price it's missing a structure to protect of the sun in the terrace of the penthouse. The boy that welcome us was so special and don't ear us.(wich is not at breakfast) The breakfast is really top with an amazing welcome of the boss and the assistant. With a baby the penthouse is not practice and the way to hotel dangerous.
|DavidTue 14 Aug, 2018
Great modern hotel
Lovely modern hotel with staff who do everything to make the stay more welcome. Breakfast was superb! The room was large, clean and well appointed and Moltom Brown gels in the bathroom were fantastic. The only small criticism is the location is a bit off the main area, but less than 5 minutes to the main road, hotel area and bus stops.
|DimitraMon 13 Aug, 2018
Everything was beautiful and clean. I wish we could stay more days! I will definitely recommend it to friends!

Very nice hotel
Thank you so much for your help and attention when our daughter was ill We really appreciate Many many thanks
|MassimilianoMon 06 Aug, 2018
Nothing much to say: just perfect (friendly and helpful staff, beautiful room, excellent breakfast...) good position (on foot, ten minutes away from the city centre).
|DeborahSun 05 Aug, 2018
BEWARE. Once you book, there are no refunds. Our honeymoon sadly had to be cancelled nearly two months in advance of our reservation and the owner Konstantine REFUSED to issue a REFUND. Then he relisted the room, booked it and kept that money too. The money we lost on this booking has set us back and it is so SAD that Konstantine?s apparent greed and dictatorial polices got in the way of good service and common decency. We DO NOT recommend staying at the Vlassis Hotel.
|AndreasSat 04 Aug, 2018
Excited about this hotel
What I liked the most about this hotel is the behaviour of its staff! They were all very kind and willing to help whenever we asked them to. In addition, the hotel was very clean with very good services. If I travel back to Naxos, I will stay at this hotel for sure!!
|ELENAMon 30 Jul, 2018
Great hotel
The hotel was great, small and clean, perfect to give you the greek island experience. The only downsite to the hotel is the distance from the chora which is 10min walk on a non-pedestrian road. The bus stop is 5 minutes away and from there you can go to all beaches. The staff was very helpful and the breakfast was nice with local products. Overall, highly recommended.

A new deep-drawing apparatus is developed for examining the compatibility problem between the tool and the workpiece material in metal forming. The die consists of two parts divided coaxially, the radius part rotating at a desired speed and the flange part fixed. The division of the die makes it possible to control the meridian component of the frictional force on the die profile radius by changing the direction of frictional force with its rotation. The characterization of the apparatus is made by drawing tests of copper blanks with a sintered carbide die. The result shows that it is possible to estimate the absolute value of die profile friction in deep drawing by using the apparatus developed.

You can 'de-code' tantrums by sorting them into 2 separate groups. The first is 'TANTRUM PREVENTION' and the second is 'TANTRUM RESPONSE'.
Tantrum prevention is an important piece of the puzzle as this will be a 'proactive' approach which can help decrease tantrums tremendously if not stop them all together. It will be more effective in tackling tantrums versus not doing any prevention and be left dealing with them constantly which is a 'reactive' approach.
A.) Increase Sleep -
One of the main issues behind behaviour in children is lack of adequate sleep. This is a huge issue for a lot of Parents who just seem to 'put up with it' because they don't know what else to do. Toddlers are needing about 12-14 hours of sleep in a 24 hour period for proper growth & development and to just function normally on a daily basis.. {Infants about 14-16 hours and preschoolers about 10-12 hours}. Ensure your child is getting enough sleep as this will help diminish tantrums and behaviours.
B.) Increase Routine -
You may have several routines already but if your little tot is misbehaving or having a lot of tantrums, they may not be effective enough. At this early age you can't have enough routines. Children but especially toddlers, thrive on structure and routine. Being able to 'predict' what is going to happen next is a critical component to a child's learning and understanding.
C.) Increase Attention -
There is a good chance that even though you may be spending every waking minute ( and night time too) with your child, there may not be enough 'attention' in the 'tank'. This is your quality, one-on-one time that you spend with your child with no other distractions or items on the agenda accept for making a true connection. Many Parents admit that this is lacking on a daily basis because they just think they are with them all the time anyway, so what difference does it make. There is a huge difference when you 'top up the tank' of attention as this builds attachment, connection and trust.

Holiday Specials on Select Cabins on Select Cruises,
Call Today to Book.
small alaska ship
Our Alaskan small ship cruises are 14 & 9 day adventures touring throughout the Alexander Archipelago in Southeast Alaska. Departures are offered from Juneau, Sitka, or Petersburg, and are all serviced by Alaska Airlines, and Delta airlines for Juneau and Sitka.
Does your idea of a great vacation include spectacular wilderness bays, kayaking, glaciers, whale-watching, and wildlife? Then you should visit the real wilderness with evenings anchored in breath-taking coves, and enjoy the peaceful nature of pure Alaska; uninterrupted by the noise of motors.
Imagine watching humpback whales and marine mammals close enough to hear the "rush" of their breathing, and cruising the rugged shorelines and remote bays of Alaska's Panhandle. Picture bald eagles, cormorants, tufted puffins, loons, and Pacific sea birds right outside your cabin window. That would be a Fantasy Cruise.
Feeling the need to get even closer to nature? You can even enjoy using one of our ship's kayaks to explore the "nooks and crannies" of our evening anchorage.
Fantasy Cruises is authorized by a Special Use Permit to provide guiding services in the Tongass National Forest. Each of our cruises features an onboard, certified Alaska Naturalist to give deeper insights of the local wildlife.

Consider the Gospel Invitation
Some years ago, while passing through the town of Rochester, my attention was arrested by an old-fashioned building which stood in the High Street, over the door of which a stone tablet announced that, by the bequest of a certain gentleman, "six poor travelers, not being rogues or vagabonds," were nightly lodged, entertained, and provided with a few pence to carry them on their journey the next day.
My curiosity was aroused, and although it was bitterly cold, the keen wind driving before it a drizzling rain, causing the few passers-by, whom, like myself, business had compelled to be out, to hurry on to seek the shelter of their homes, I concluded to wait, and, if possible, see who would apply for the charity.
Addressing myself to a policeman, who by this time had stationed himself near the door of the house, I enquired at what hour the poor travelers were admitted.
"Six o'clock," was his reply. I had not long to wait. Soon the church clock, close at hand, chimed out the hour of six, and before the last stroke had died away, at least twenty men had ranged themselves along the pavement. They came hurrying along from all directions—and a motley crowd they were. There was the farm laborer in his white smock frock, the mechanic out of employment carrying the tools of his craft, while here and there could be seen one of the genuine beggar type, shivering in the bitter wind, his countenance bearing the pinched and haggard appearance which tells most unmistakably of long acquaintance with want and privation.
But what struck me most was the eagerness depicted on every face. Each had his eyes fixed on the door, which he knew would soon open, and all else seemed forgotten in the one desire to get within the house of charity.
At length the door opened, and an old woman, looking as antiquated as the building itself, came out, and through the half-closed door could be seen the ruddy glow of the firelight within, in strange contrast to the inclement weather without. She quickly selected six, and I noticed that they were the most respectable ones—the poor shivering beggars were rejected—and then the door shut.
The look of eagerness gave way to one of disappointment, and the unsuccessful applicants dispersed, with the exception of one young man, who lingered for a moment, and then, turning to the stern-faced policeman, asked, with tears in his eyes, "Oh, sir, where am I to go?"
I have never forgotten the incident, trivial as it may appear to some; and I now use it in order to contrast God's door with man's door.
Reader, God has opened a door for poor travelers—those who are traveling on the broad road which leadeth to destruction. He has opened a door of wondrous grace and mercy for such.
Let me ask you, Is this your condition? Do you know yourself as a poor traveler—poor because you are without Christ? In a word, Do you know yourself as Lost? If so, draw near, I beseech you, to God's door, and let us see what He has written over it.
First I see His gift, "God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." (John 3:16.)
Now look at the class He addresses. "Whosoever will, let Him take the water of life freely." (Rev. 12:17.)
Now see the invitation. "Come, for all things are now ready." (Luke 14:17.)
Do these precious Scriptures satisfy you? or are you saying, "I cannot think that He will receive me, I am so sinful."
Look again, dear reader, at His own words, "Him that cometh to Me I will in No Wise cast out."
If you are still in doubt, take your Bible, turn to passages in the gospels where sinners came to Jesus, and I am sure you will not find one instance of a soul being turned away.
Jesus is now exalted; but although He is surrounded with the highest glory of heaven, His heart of love remains the same. "Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, and today, and for ever." (Heb. 13:8.)
But remember that, while the door of grace is open as wide as the abounding mercy of God and the precious blood of Christ can set it, although it has remained so for nearly 2,000 years, although God is now, as it were, holding that door open, that you, for whom He has waited so long, might enter —a time is coming, we know not how soon, when the door will be Shut forever; and if you are outside, no power on earth, or in heaven, can open it again for you. "When once the Master of the house is risen up, and hath shut the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us; and He shall answer and say unto you, I know you not whence ye are." (Luke 13:25.)
Come then, now, while God is calling. Enter the open door, and everlasting life shall be yours, through the Savior's precious blood.

Ismini Phillips is an authorised and dedicated instructor of the Pink Ribbon Program. She works in restricted groups of 6 people per course or alternatively can offer classes on a one-to-one basis.
The Pink Ribbon Prograrm
exercise may be the last thing you feel like doing after breast cancer surgery. You're probably exhausted, your arm may be painful and swollen, and the adjuvant treatments can make you feel even worse. All you want to do is rest. In the past, that's exactly what doctors recommended.
However, recent studies indicate a link between moderate physical exercise and improved quality of life for breast cancer survivors.
We are dedicated to promoting a healthy lifestyle and positive body image to all breast cancer survivors. The Pink Ribbon Program will help stretch and strengthen the shoulder, chest, back, and abdominal muscles, allowing women to regain full range of motion to those areas affected by breast cancer surgery. This program is suitable whether your surgery was recent or several years ago and accomodates all fitness levels.
Qualified Breast Cancer Exercise Specialist
The Breast Cancer exercise Specialist (BCES) is a professional qualified to assess, design, and implement individual and group exercise and fitness programs for those diagnosed with cancer. The BCES is skilled in evaluating health behaviours and risk factors, conducting fitness assessments, writing appropriate exercise recommendations and motivating individuals to modify negative health habits and maintain positive lifestyle behaviours for health promotion.
The BCES will have a complete understanding of the entire cancer process from diagnosis to treatment, recovery, prevention of lymphedema, and contraindications.
The Benefits of the Pink Ribbon Program
- Reduces feelings of depression
- Improves self confidence and control
- Helps regain strength and mobility in affected shoulder and arm
- Enhances energy levels
- Helps to control weight
- Improves sleep
- Alleviates fatigue
- Decreases stress and tension
- Enhances physical and mental well-being
focussed & dedicated instructor
Ismini Phillips is renowned for her focused and thorough approach to Pilates giving her clients individual attention even in a group setting.
Course Timetables & Schedules
As the Pink Ribbon Program is restricted to a maximum of 6 participants per course, it is highly advisable to contact Ismini directly to find out when the next program is in your area.
Schedules and time lines are not advertised as the course runs for an initial 6 weeks, with a Pink Ribbon Pilates Transition course thereafter and Ismini prefers to run these courses on demand. Alternatively, if you are uncomfortable about joining one of these small groups, Ismini is happy to provide the Program on a one to one basis. This can be either studio based or in the privacy of your own home.
For more information about the Pink Ribbon Program Pilates please contact Ismini via the contact Page.
"After surgery and treatment for Breast Cancer I was lacking in confidence with reduced mobility of the affected arm due to lymph node clearance.
Returning to Pilates classes not only regained my confidence with the use of my arm but has been a physical and emotional release too. The exercises are so important to keep the lymph moving correctly and it makes me feel in control again. Pilates has played a major part in my rehabilitation and recovery."

The La Crescenta Woman's Club's rustic clubhouse, built more than 100 years ago, made the perfect backdrop for the organization's second annual Western Round-Up on Saturday night.
The ladies decorated the stage with bales of hay, pumpkins, a scarecrow and a large poster of a desert sunset. More than 60 members and guests dressed in western fancy shirts and jeans or skirts.
Leading the soiree were chairwoman Carol Benedetti and president Carol Huntwork. Bre Coe, the junior group's president, taught line-dancing and won for best costume for the gals. Devin Roth won best get-up for the cowboys, vying against Art Galvan and Rick Berger.
At the sound of the dinner bell, the chuck-wagon spread offered homemade meatloaf, mac and cheese, salad and green beans topped off with apple pie a la mode.
Funds raised go to scholarships for graduating high school seniors moseying off to college. They give six scholarships a year — four general scholarships, one for a student studying art and the other for a student seeking a history degree.

But before I tell you about how water proof my foundation is, I had fun with a new Lamborghini today.
I mean, I love my Swift, with it's 1.5 ltr engine, so imagine my surprise when I'm in pole position at the motorway lights with a heavy footed Lambo driver. I knew things would go fast once the lights turned green, so I slipped the Swift into manual mode and waited.
The lights went green, and the Swift went super swiftly to red line, chopped through the gears, G-forces pushing me hard,
I really did expect to lose the little drag, so no surprises as the Lamborghini tail lights raced past me - we have a top speed limit of 100Km/h, he got there a couple of seconds faster before we both ended up behind a police car.
Always a boy at heart.
This evening, after getting changed in to girl mode, bit of shopping at the grocery store, I hit the pools, to help tone my body and increase my muscle mass, get my triangle shape back that I had a few years ago.
So this is how I looked while swimming (obviously the life guard was not a glamour photographer in her previous life)
I will say in my defence that a) I was so happy with my look I swam and extra 250 meters
b) having boobs adds a lot of drag.
But it just goes to show, with quite a bit of imagination, what a bald, middle aged man can look like (after being Photo Shopped).
After my strenuous swim, without adding any more make up, I stopped off at KFC for a small $5 meal before heading home to wife & kids to relax in front of the TV.
I hope your having a great week

The U.S. Army and U.S. Navy successfully tested the MUOS Satellite Network and General Dynamics MUOS-Manpack radio communications. The use of MUOS and the Manpack radio will allow units that are Beyond-Line-Of-Site (BLOS) to communicate seamlessly.
Its commonplace for people to pick up their cell phone and be able to communicate with whomever they want, wherever they might be. For soldiers on a remote battlefield, its not quite so simple. However, after recent testing of the Mobile User Objective System (MUOS) satellite and a radio, which was the General Dynamics Mission Systems AN/PRC-155 two-channel MUOS-Manpack radio terminal, battlefield communication is taking another major step towards improvement. With the radio using the MUOS waveform, military personnel will be able to have secure voice and data communications sent and received immediately, much like regular cell phone service.
The Importance
Currently, there are more than 5,000 AN/PRC-155 Manpack radio terminals fielded to the U.S. Army providing secure line-of-sight and satellite communications connectivity for its personnel deployed in places where other communication networks are unreachable. With the addition of the MUOS High Power Amplifier (MHPA)and the MUOS waveform integrated within the AN/PRC-155 Manpack radio terminal, these remotely located units will be able to connect with the greater network thousands of miles away to talk, text and share large amounts of data clearly and effortlessly.
The Technology
MUOS is the U.S. Navys new satellite communications system that provides cell phone-like voice and data communications to U.S. military forces. The AN/PRC-155 Manpack radio connects U.S. Army soldiers to the Warfighter Information Network Tactical (WIN-T) and other local and wide-area military communication networks. Equipped with a field upgradable MUOS HPA (MHPA), the AN/PRC-155 MUOS-Manpack radio terminal has the radio-signal strength needed to communicate with the MUOS satellites in geo-synchronous orbit.
One of the primary features of the two-channel AN/PRC-155 Manpack radio is the ability to run different communication waveforms. This enables the SRW and the SINCGARS to run simultaneously with the MUOS waveform, which acts as the digital dial-tone to connect and communicate with the MUOS satellite system. For example, the AN/PRC-155 MUOS-Manpack radio terminal will receive a call from a tactical radio using SRW or SINCGARS on one channel, then route and retransmit the call using the second channel via the MUOS waveform, sending the call to a satellite communications network such as MUOS or other tactical communications networks.
As part of the Handheld, Manpack and Small Form Fit (HMS) family, the AN/PRC-155 Manpack is the first Army-fielded radio with the MUOS capability available today, said Mike DiBiase, a vice president and general manager of General Dynamics Mission Systems. These radios connect the new MUOS network, bridging lower-tier tactical networks like the soldier radio waveform and SINCGARS radios to the big Army network, reaching back to Army personnel located in the most austere locations.

"Life is happiness and unhappiness. Life is day and night, life is life and death. You have to be aware of both." — Osho
Thursday, December 24, 2009
Christmas Eve
Several people came into the office today. A few thanked us for being open on a day when most business, let alone professional offices, are closed.
"Thank you." - Two words that a lot of people say every day. They rarely seem to carry the full meaning.
One of the patients was so thankful for us being open today that she bought my co-worker and I a pizza. I was surprised, and pleased.
She didn't have to do that, we were just doing our job (and getting paid to do it), but it was a very nice gesture and her way of showing us that she really did appreciate that we were there.
A half hour later our Mail Carrier came in and I offered him a piece. He was reluctant, but I insisted. He was very thankful for the food. He works weekends, and only gets two days off in a row when there is a holiday (or he takes vacation). And he was there today, so we shared our food. He was surprised, and it made me happy. I like sharing happiness with others.
Mr. B & I don't celebrate Christmas. We don't buy each other gifts for the holiday (however, we will buy each other items that we've been wanting if we can find a good deal). But we do-up the holiday for Little Monster. When we found out I was pregnant we decided we'd have to start celebrating Christmas when he turned 3. We want him to have a "normal" child-hood (whatever that means). We put up the tree. We wrap the presents. We hang the stockings. I even make Christmas cookies. And Mr. B's god-father comes over for dinner.
Christmas music gets irritating after the first day. It's all the same songs, just different artists and different versions. They get boring. People say "it's the most wonderful time of the year" and "'tis the season for giving" but to me it seems like people are generally more stressed, rude, and annoying.
I've been late to work almost every day because of other people. Two days ago I decided that I am going to start taking pictures on my cell phone any time something I can't control causes me to be late for work. That was the day someone double parked out front blocking my parking spot. That is an idea I may hold true to.
Little Monster loves Christmas. He was so excited to decorate the tree while we watched "A Muppets Christmas Carroll" and ate cookies. He was so excited to wrap presents for his dad, his cousin, and for me. He was so excited to see presents for himself under the tree and try to guess what they could be (he is very good at guessing).
Tonight he got to open his biggest gift and his stocking. The biggest gift was a futon because Mr. B & I decided it was time to upgrade him to a big boy bed (and he's been begging for a futon--it's a Transformer bed). The stocking had a lot of small toys in it, but instead of playing with his new toys he's been playing in the box that the futon came in. It's his "secret hide-out."
A lot of the things I've been doing with him (decorating the tree, watching 'A Muppets Christmas Carroll', playing in boxes) all remind me of some of the best times in my childhood.
-Decorating the tree was my favorite part of Christmas growing up. I remember always wanting to put up the ornaments that my grandmother had made (she hand crocheted and beaded them). Even though I don't like to celebrate Christmas for myself, I find myself wishing I had one of those ornaments. (The ornaments looked something like this.)
-'A Muppets Christmas Carroll' reminds me of my favorite Christmas. My grandparents had just moved close by and it was our first Christmas at their new place. That was the first time I watched that movie and the first Christmas that it didn't feel like our family was poor. Every Christmas after that felt progressively less poor, but that Christmas is the most memorable to me.
-Little Monster playing in the box reminds me of when I was young and we used to play with appliance boxes. The refrigerator boxes made the best forts! My dad would tape all the ends up and then cut us doors and windows and we would play for hours in the boxes. I remember it was the summer my younger brother Rett was born, we spent hours playing in those boxes and using "Squeez-it" bottles as water guns. We'd take a couple trash cans and fill them up with water, then fill the "Sqeez-it" bottles up with water and put them in the trashcans... we'd have a couple trash cans filled up like that in the middle of the lawn and then we'd all have a water fight... we grabbed one, sprayed someone, grabbed another, sprayed that one out and just kept going until they were all empty, then we'd start all over again. I can't imagine how high my parents water bill must have been.
All right, time to get my boy out of his box and put him to bed... he mentioned that he might want to sleep in the box. I just can't imagine that it would be easy to get out of in the event that he needs to use the bathroom... we'll see.
What is your favorite Christmas memory? Are there other good memories that have popped up recently? Talk to me.

Wonderful! I will see if we can get out one of those ornaments--I thought you had one. It's a "poor" Christmas in terms of big gifts, but the best is knowing you are all safe and sound...I have stuff for everyone I just never seem to get around to the mailing part! Oh I did get you a non fiction book I think you will enjoy! Christmas has always been bittersweet for me every since Unc passed away on dec 22 That day I always remember him. That changes the tone of Christmas-- this year I was excited and then not, but tonight we had our Christmas Eve Service and I thought of the plays you were all in and how cute you were! That always made Christmas very special--and seeing all of you excited at the Christmas story and then the presents...I am very blessed and very thankful for all the memories both happy sad they make and mold us!

I guess we would have been considered poor growing up as well, so the presents weren't a big memory for me. My favorite memory would have to be when I was about ten or eleven. I woke up so early that the sky was still fighting between dark and light. A fresh layer of snow had just fallen, and my bones ached just thinking about how cold it was out there. The tree sparkled while all the rooms were quiet with sleep. I put on a Dollar Store video my grandparents gave us the night before, and just sat there and watched these extremely dated cartoons that looked like the illustrations in a Grimm Fairy-Tale book. Being snuggled up on the couch in the still quietness was my favorite, and I think it still is. :)

RASSF1A Signaling in the Heart: Novel Functions beyond Tumor Suppression

The RASSF proteins are a family of polypeptides, each containing a conserved Ras association domain, suggesting that these scaffold proteins may be effectors of activated Ras or Ras-related small GTPases. RASSF proteins are characterized by their ability to inhibit cell growth and proliferation while promoting cell death. RASSF1 isoform A is an established tumor suppressor and is frequently silenced in a variety of tumors and human cancer cell lines. However, our understanding of its function in terminally differentiated cell types, such as cardiac myocytes, is relatively nascent. Herein, we review the role of RASSF1A in cardiac physiology and disease and highlight signaling pathways that mediate its function.

The end of an era… November 12, 2007Posted by shell in RANDOM, THOUGHTS.

Well before we post up our final outcome, we will each wrap this baby up… see the two below posts for Bec and Disti's final thoughts and the entry entitled 'Critical Analysis' for Tash's final thoughts.
Well… I have learnt an extraordinary amount throughout this project, it has really opened my eyes to the power of the media. Through all the books and articles read, and documentaries watched I have come to realise that we, KillerTofu, chose a very important and topical issue. At the beginning of the semester I was somewhat naive to the deceptive ways of the mass media, but now I feel I have the knowledge necessary to make informed decisions about the information I receive on a daily basis from these conglomerates.
As for our rather ambitious social experiment, I am proud to say I was a part of it, we learnt a lot and had a heap of fun in the process… who knew four twenty-something chicks would have the nerve to vandalise city property and create totally false news headlines? The action day and night will not easily be forgotten, and is by far the most memorable uni moment I will take with me into the big bad world!!
A massive thank-you to the girls, Bec, Tash and Disti, once again we made a great team and got through it all without any dramas. We even managed to avoid pulling any all-nighters!! I will miss working with you all thats for sure.
Thanks to Nicki, Tony & Keith for their input and support throughout the semester, and apologies if we made you nervous with our naughty plans!
Well thats it from me, I will now post the final outcome up.
Cheers, Shell.

Very similar to ours and it is going to be displayed on trains as public art.
Takes a similar humorous approach as our 'John So for PM' headline.

a friend of mine told me about this
(copypasted off perezhilton.com)
The Emmy telecast bleeped part of Sally Field's acceptance speech for her best actress in a drama win.
What did she say?
"If mothers ruled the world, there wouldn't be any god-damned wars in the first place."
it's just a simple opinion.
it didnt get censored on ten's broadcast though.
goes to show that 'they' really do put a tight hold on whatever there is to say on tv. even awardshows can't escape from political censorship!

Hi Tofu's… yes i have once again changed the theme.
Disti, sorry I know you didn't like the blue in this one, but the reason I have used it is because it shows who wrote each post, it has all the links down the side, and best of all it has a search function so that people can look for specific topics (so it makes it easier for people to do thinks like type in 'probes' and then be given all the posts that center around processing the probe kits).
Hope that's cool?

Naratha Muni have found a celestial mango fruit and brought to Lord Shiva to share with his children Ganesha and Murga, the two son gods. Lord Shiva would like the mango to be shared equally between brothers, but Naratha had another idea. He suggested a running race for brothers to encircle the universe and the fruit will be given to the one who can come first. It was fascinating and thrilling to both gods and competition begins. While Muruga jumped on his famous rider, the peacock, Ganesha with huge body and elephant face knows that he cannot match his brother's agility, and decided to use his mind by posing a wonderful question to Lord Shiva.
'Is not Lord Shiva the universe?' Lord Shiva amazed with the intelligence of Ganesha and has certainly affirmed with him. Ganesha just took a simple walk around of Lord Shiva and won the competition. After making exhaustive circum of universe with his peacock, Murga disappointed to witness that Ganesha already enjoying the mango treat. The rest is a great epic in Tamil religious history. The epic revolved around three famous gods of Tamils, but I can derive a perfect example for 'survival of fittest'.
Entire mankind is in unparalleled race and trying to unseat each others. Most of the individuals have the propensity imbibed in their hearts and minds to treat others as his or her potential enemies or obstacles to their growth. Success at the expense of others is the order of contemporary life and people travel to any length to cut down others for no obvious enmity.
We simply accept the norms without looking at the veracity of basic stimuli, the 'survival of fittest' that made the world become 'mad' at each other. The proponent of survival of fittest is derived to engage humans to a new level of talent acquisition for self advancements but diligently negated the possibility of collective progress. The encomium surrounding on the theory of survival of fittest attracts more followers with less conviction. Because, the mankind is the best flocks that walks on the order of a shepherd dreaming that the shepherd will lead them to a worldly achievement and salvation. We just accept, not agreed. By just accepting the 'survival of fittest', we legitimize the irreconcilable values and drive ourselves to the inexplicable bewilderment.
We create a permanent pandemonium in mind due to forced acceptances and failed to envisage the necessity of agreement. Agreement demand conviction and sadly seldom ready for the process of conviction. Conviction demands balance of mind, reasons of existence and rationale thought process. Do we have the time to exercise these critical elements? Millions of issues being carried, executed, diluted, augmented in mind and evaporated in daily bedlam without being agreed or convinced, yet life goes on. We are in the race without knowing the target.
Yes, the life goes on either we accept or agreed with it. It does not wait for anyone. It moves. It has been intertwined with time. It has been further disheveled due to our irrational self acclamation that we only dapping in. We further divulging our soul towards the darker trench believing that it is enlightening and providing necessary security. We are defeating ourselves without even knowing it.
We bend the life the way we want to live and conveniently forgetting the natural process that is larger than the life structure that we create and lives in. We are mostly naïve irrespective of our age, experience, expertise and lock ourselves with the vicious cycle of our own making. We field ourselves with inherited trait of 'the fittest will survive' and diametrically opposed the characteristics that are built to propel us. We connect our survival with ever evolving theory of 'fitness' that has been defined by circumstances, thus allowing us to be controlled by mystifying forces. The uncontrollable happenings within and outside of our self is the perfect example of acceptance and not agreement.
Every day we compete, we fail mostly and win sometimes, we justify and compete again. The cycle continues viciously and we pass these traits to our children. We let our circumstances to define our life and we become slaves of it. And we force our children also to become slaves of circumstances, because, we believe only fittest will survive. The concept and theory of 'survival of fittest' is to belittle the human dignity and enslave the weak to strong and to free the strong from any accountability. The survival of fittest theory was to create a world order that favours the advantageous group that are already in power and permanently disallowing the weak any genuine opportunities or forcing to pay the price of being weak.
An artificial intelligence was created with strong mobilization to disintegrate the people in the name of competition. The artificial intelligence is an intellectual product of strong to permanently keep them in advantageous position. Further, the strong dictates and defines the nature and level of competition aided by the blades of cunningness, thus preventing the natural intelligence from any growth. In fact, the natural intelligence is effectively replaced with artificial intelligence.
Every child is blessed with natural intelligence and it is the duty of parents, teachers, society and country to aid the natural intelligence to grow, function and mature. The natural intelligence plays amicable role in life offering wider control on every individual to perform their role in satisfaction of its Creator. The natural intelligence beautifies the life, because it is balanced and not forcing the individual to race against time. Natural intelligence allows the mankind to travel with time, nature and enjoy the life. Natural intelligence offers space to everyone and never punishes the weak; rather lend a helping hand to lift them to higher level. Human beings are created with certain advantages and disadvantages, not to create the theory of 'survival of fittest' but to enforce the noble theory of co-creation for a collective journey in achieving supremacy.
The world is not to compete, but co-create and cooperate. Replace the survival of fittest with natural intelligence to co-create and cooperate for a better world where the strong is the servant of weak, not a master.

So here's some of my work on the latest Disney Kingdom series, Figment. Well, the first two issues, at any rate. I had lots of fun with Filipe Andrade's masterful art here, and got to do a bit of experimenting with new techniques (pushing for that "storybook" feel here). Nothing ground-breaking, really, but I'm pretty pleased with the way it came out (although I have to admit I was sad that all those vibrant pinks and purples didn't print so well...)! And to make things better, the first 3 issues of the series all sold out and had to go for second printings! I'm keeping my fingers crossed the the next two issues. ;)
Anyway, here are a few choice pages from issue 1.
And a few from the second issue. I should have pages from the other issues at some point.

Hopefully this will be my new best friend. Set to release in Feb 2011, the new 100 dollar bill has new security features such as the 3D security ribbon and the color changing liberty bell ( I thought it was a pot of gold). Wow, everything is going 3D these days... And after showing the front of the Independence hall for oh so many years, now they are going to show the rear view.

Havana.- Cuba's leisure industry, the fastest-growing sector in the Island's economy, is expected to report an increase of 12.7 percent in tourist arrivals this year.
According to official predictions, the largest Antillean Island will receive 1.9 million vacationers in 2003.
Last year, 1,686,162 travelers visited Cuba, and the hotel occupancy rate is expected to rise to 61.7 percent this year.
Tourist authorities pointed out that revenues are likely to grow by 15.2 percent, and profits will be higher than last year's.
Results during the first few months of 2003 lead to a significant recovery in the tourist industry, which has experienced a sustained growth during the past ten years.
Cuba's working strategy makes emphasis on efficiency and contingency plans to counter crises.

Each day in the month of August, I will be sharing a written piece by one of the RWISA authors. RWISA is the Rave Writers International Society of Authors, a prestigious organization that prides itself on including incredible INDIE authors. Today it is my honor to share a short story I wrote several years ago. It is a favorite of mine and I hope you will enjoy it.
It was one of those wonderful August days when the sun was high and warm in the sky. The big cumulus clouds slowly drifted by creating designs that filled Jim's imagination, who at nine years could see all kinds of amazing sights. He had been playing with his model airplane in his aunt and uncle's yard where he spent the summers on their ranch in San Diego, California. Staying with Uncle Leon and Aunt Helen was always a special time of adventure, fun and farm work.
"Jim, do you want to go to the pasture with me? We'll check the water trough for the cattle," Uncle Leon asked at the same time he took his handkerchief and wiped some perspiration from his tan brow.
"Oh, yes," Jim responded with great excitement. He ran to the front porch and put his treasured airplane on the table next to where Aunt Helen sat in her rocking chair.
Uncle Leon walked over to the Allis-Chalmers tractor and stretched his long, thin legs up and over onto the metal seat. "All right, Jim you can come on up now." Jim awkwardly managed to climb up and grabbed hold of his uncle's hand, who swung him onto his lap. With the turn of the key, the tractor began to vibrate and the engine roared. Shifting the gears into forward Leon yelled, "Here we go!"
The pasture was a favorite place for Jim with its rolling hills, oak trees, and green grass. It was always a peaceful place where a boy could run until he was out of breath, and then fall onto the grass and let the wind gently blow over his panting body. Many were the times that Jim would spend his day just climbing in the oak trees pretending he was hiding from some enemy or shooting squirrels with his imaginary rifle.
He and his uncle drove through the pasture until they came to a large trough sitting by a water pump on the top of a knoll. The cattle were grazing some distance away, but their occasional moos could be heard.
Uncle Leon helped Jim off the tractor and then sauntered up to the trough. "Not much water left so we best get this filled up."
Jim was leaning over the trough where the top of it just reached his chest. "What can I do? I want to help."
"Well now, how about you pump the water in once I get it primed," replied Uncle Leon with his usually smiling face. He was happy that Jim wanted to help, but he also knew that pumping water would be a big job for such a young lad. Once he had the water flowing with each downward motion of the pump handle, he instructed, "Okay, young feller, it is your turn now."
Jim eagerly grabbed the handle and standing on his tip toes pushed it down, smiling happily when the water gushed into the trough. He repeated the pumping for as long as he could, but all too quickly his arms and shoulders began to ache. Jim did not want to admit that he was getting tired, but his uncle knew and said, "How about if I do it for a while?"
Once the water neared the top, Jim leaned over cupping some water into his hands. "This is the best tasting water I've ever had," Jim thought to himself. He slurped several handfuls into his dry mouth.
Looking over at his nephew, Leon asked with a twinkle in his eye, "Did you see that fish drop into the water from this here pump?"
"What fish?"
"Why that fish that came right out of the pump into the trough. I thought sure you would have seen him while you were drinking the water."
"No, sir. I didn't see any fish." Jim wiped his mouth with his shirt sleeve and earnestly looked in the water.
"Well, he must still be in there." Uncle Leon leaned over the trough looking for the mysterious fish. "Now isn't that something. I can't see him anywhere." He peeked a look at his nephew, who now had eyes as big as saucers. "I wonder if you accidentally swallowed that poor little fish while you were drinking all that water."
Jim stepped back from the trough and began to rub his stomach. "I don't think so, sir." The minutes passed and Uncle Leon continued to wonder out loud what happened to the fish. Jim began to imagine that the fish was swimming in his stomach. "I don't feel so good," Jim said as he stretched down on the cool grass.
Seeing that his nephew was fearful and feeling sick, Uncle Leon laid down next to him and pointed up towards the clouds. "Jim, look at that cloud up there. See the little one next to the big puffy cloud."
He waited until Jim nodded his head and said, "I think so."
"It kind of looks like a fish, doesn't it? I wonder if that is the fish that was in the trough."
Jim looked at his uncle, then up at the clouds, and then back at his uncle who was smiling from ear to ear. Uncle Leon laughed and began to tickle Jim's stomach. "Or is that fish still here? Where is that fish?"
Jim laughed and joked right back while he patted his uncle's stomach. "No, I think that fish is right here!"
Soon they both stopped laughing and just looked at one another. "I hope I don't tease you too much," Uncle Leon said.
"Oh no, Sir." Jim looked at his uncle and went on to say, "I like to tease my younger brothers. Mother is always telling me not to do it too much. She doesn't want them to cry."
"Well, I would never want to make you cry." Uncle Leon put his big hand on Jim's head. "Do you know why?" Jim slowly shook his head back and forth not wanting his uncle to remove his hand. "I love you too much to ever make you cry for any reason."
With tears in his eyes, Jim whispered, "I love you too."
They spent the rest of the afternoon enjoying the sun, the warm breeze, and just being next to one another in the grass watching the clouds drift by. It was a special day that Jim always remembered with a smile.
Thank you for taking the time to read this short story, which is based on a similar event my dad had as a young boy. I hope it brought a smile to your face.

Sometimes a programmer wants to create an exact but separate copy of an existing object so that subsequent changes to the copy should not alter the original or vice versa. This is made possible using the copy constructor.
A copy constructor is a constructor that creates a new object using an existing object of the same class and initializes each instance variable of newly created object with corresponding instance variables of the existing object passed as argument. This constructor takes a single argument whose type is that of the class containing the constructor.
class Rectangle
int length;
int breadth;
//constructor to initialize length and bredth of rectang of rectangle
Rectangle(int l, int b)
length = l;
breadth= b;
//copy constructor
Rectangle(Rectangle obj)
System.out.println("Copy Constructor Invoked");
length = obj.length;
breadth= obj.breadth;
//method to calcuate area of rectangle
int area()
return (length * breadth);
//class to create Rectangle object and calculate area
class CopyConstructor
public static void main(String[] args)
Rectangle firstRect = new Rectangle(5,6);
Rectangle secondRect= new Rectangle(firstRect);
System.out.println("Area of First Rectangle : "+ firstRect.area());
System .out.println("Area of First Second Rectangle : "+ secondRect.area());
The statement,
Rectangle firstRect = new Rectangle(5,6);
creates a Rectangle object and invokes the constructor Rectangle (int l,int b) which initializes values length and breadth with values 5 and 6 respectively and returns the reference to firstRect variable.
The statement,
Rectangle secondRect = new Rectangle (firstRect);
invokes a copy constructor
Rectangle(Rectangle obj)
and initializes the instance variables length and breadth of the newly created Rectangle object
and returns its reference to the secondRect variable.
One may think, as in C++ the copy constructor can be invoked using the statement,
Rectangle secondRect = firstRect;
but this is not so. Here the variable secondRect references to the same object as firstRect. No new object is created.
