The prank (2)
2008-01-08 22:01:00 At first, she pressed her lips together and she smiled a smile that belonged to a toothpaste ad. But when she removed the lipstick cap, she first hesitated, then she put a surprised look on her gorgeous face, but, almost instantly, she said in a sensual voice:- I beg your pardon...! I said "thorny rose pink", not "thorny cactus green"!And everybody laughed. More About: Prank
Native American Code of Ethics
2008-01-07 17:56:00 Each morning upon rising, and each evening before sleeping, give thanks for the life within you and for all life, for the good things the Creator has given you and for the opportunity to grow a little more each day. Consider your thoughts and actions of the past day and seek for the courage and strength to be a better person. Seek for the things that will benefit others (everyone).Treat every person from the tiniest child to the oldest elder with respect, at all times. Special respect should be given to Elders, Parents, Teachers, and Community Leaders. No person should be made to feel "put down" by you; avoid hurting other hearts, as you would avoid a deadly poison. ...What wise words! Man's ethical behavior should (and could!) be based easily on values as simple as these. And it would be a better world, wouldn't it? More About: Native American , Ethics , American , Code , Native

Time?s Machine of the Year
2007-12-26 18:36:00 25 years ago today, on the 26th December 1982, Time Magazine's Man of the Year was for the first time given to a non-human - the personal computer. The personal computer was selected as Time magazine's Man (or in this case, Mach ine ) of the Year. The PC beat out some formidable competition, including US president Ronald Reagan, the leader of the Conservative Party and Prime Minister of the United Kingdom Margaret Thatcher -a.k.a. the Iron Lady- and the Nobel Peace Prize laureate and first Likud Prime Minister of Israel, Menachem Begin.It marked the first time that the editors selected a non-human recipient for the award (the planet Earth would be second, in 1988), which Time has bestowed annually since 1927.The magazine's essay is a quaint reminder of the era's dawning awareness of the computer as a force in modern life. In 1982, 80 percent of Americans expected that "in the fairly near future, home computers will be as commonplace as television sets or dishwashers"!(And they wer...

You may say I'm a dreamer...
2007-12-08 23:05:00 It was 27 years ago today, on December 8, 1980, that former Beatle, songwriter, singer, musician, graphic artist, author and peace activist John Lennon was shot four times in the back by Mark Chapman as he entered the Dakota, his luxury apartment building on Manhattan's Upper West Side, opposite Central Park, at 23.00 local time. Chapman said he had heard voices in his head telling him to kill the world-famous musician. He pleaded guilty to gunning down JL and is currently serving life in Attica .In his solo career, Lennon wrote and recorded "Imagine" , an authentic hymn to peace and fraternity, and one of my favourite songs ever.

Hey, go die somewhere else!
2007-12-06 19:51:00 UK chooses 'most ludicrous laws'A law prohibiting anyone from dying in the Houses of Parliament has topped a survey of Britain's most absurd legislation, seconded by the one that says that it is an act of treason to place a postage stamp bearing the British monarch upside-down. The poll, commissioned by UKTV Gold, also quizzed people on unusual international laws, including legislation against getting a fish drunk in Ohio, naming a pig Napoleon in France, and driving while wearing a blindfold in Alabama.Just read them all. They have all made me laugh my feathers off!Most ridiculous British laws:1. It is illegal to die in the Houses of Parliament2. It is an act of treason to place a postage stamp bearing the British monarch upside-down3. In Liverpool, it is illegal for a woman to be topless except as a clerk in a tropical fish store4.

Google 403 Error
2007-12-04 18:54:00 As you might have noticed, yesterday, December 03, for a couple of hours, most of the pictures in my blog seemed to have vanished and I couldn?t publish new posts. It seems that Google , which owns Blogger, doesn?t like me and served me up a "403 Error " page, which said:We're sorry...... but your query looks similar to automated requests from a computer virus or spyware application.

Words of wisdom
2007-11-24 00:39:00 "So live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart. Trouble no one about their religion; respect others in their view, and demand that they respect yours. Love your life, perfect your life, beautify all things in your life. Seek to make your life long and its purpose in the service of your people. Prepare a noble death song for the day when you go over the great divide. Always give a word or a sign of salute when meeting or passing a friend, even a stranger, when in a lonely place. Show respect to all people and grovel to none. When you arise in the morning give thanks for the food and for the joy of living. If you see no reason for giving thanks, the fault lies only in yourself. Abuse no one and no thing, for abuse turns the wise ones to fools and robs the spirit of its vision. When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives...

World Day of the Sea
More articles from this author:2007-11-17 00:52:00 About 70 % of our planet it is covered by water. The biomass of all sea inhabitants - from the algae to the blue whales - makes 90 % of a biomass of all living organisms of a planet. According to the data of United Nations, for last 100 years such kinds of fishes as a tuna, a cod and marlin have been caught on 90 %. About 21 million barrels of oil annually pours out in the seas and oceans. The synthetic wastes, dumped in large reservoirs, are the reason of destruction of one million sea birds and 100 000 sea mammals in a year. Because of global warming for last 100 years, the water level in large pools of a planet has risen on 10-25 cm.This loss of biological diversity is essentially the bottom line of what we're doing to this beautiful planet we share! Well, I think - and truly believe - that making a difference on this requires, first of all, an attitude shift, on a local, national and global level.Thus I, Cochise, leader of the Apache Nation, have spoken, thus shall it be!
