The 9 o'clock sun on May 3 began to burn down on those assembled at Angke-Kapuk Nature Recreation Park (TWA Angke-Kapuk) in North Jakarta. The air was becoming hotter and hotter, but this did not wilt the high spirits of the hundreds who had come from the Regina Caely Church Community in Pantai Indah Kapuk and from the Telkom Vocational Senior High School) in Daan Mogot, West Jakarta, to listen to Murni's briefing on mangrove-planting techniques.Sri Lela Murniwati, 64, who is known simply as Ibu Murni, has been working at the TWA Angke-Kapuk since 1998, when she received a decree by then forestry minister Djamaluddin Suryohadikusumo appointing her to manage the 99-hectare coastal park.Murni's entry to reforestation is unique.

with Professor of Fangeekonomics, Ms. Melissa Voelker Reference Materials for today's class: Xena: Warrior Princess, Episode 1.15 – Warrior…Princess? Though Xena was a darker, much more serious show thematically than its predecessor Hercules, it was not a show above devolving into some humor and silliness once and a while. To prove this point, the writers created a series of progressively more ridiculous episodes that all revolved around Lucy Lawless playing two (or more) look-a-like characters. This gave the actress a chance to be playful, demure, flaky, and even delicate, which the hardcore warrior Xena would never be. Today, class, we will look at the first episode to utilize this trick and see if Ms. Lawless can manage to pull off playing two different characters at one time

Carver, Mass. (ThaLunatic Daily) -- George Cowen, a 17 year old teen was arrested on almost a dozen charges after he burst onto a high school athletic field in a speeding car, terrorizing hundreds of people.Approximately 600 people were enjoying the ballparks at Carver High School in Carver, Massachusetts when Cowen, charged the athletic fields in his parent's car, spinning out and doing doughnuts. Witnesses reported that Cowen narrowly avoided several kids who were on the grounds."There were spectators for a baseball game, some high school sports were practicing, there was also a middle school track meet going on at the time," said Carver police Sgt. Michael Miksch.Parents and children ran for their lives. Calls to 911 emergency service rolled in pleading for officer assistance."Al

I know that yesterday I said my rafting assessment was going to be Tuesday, but in fact it turned out to be today. It was originally going to be today, but then it was changed to Tuesday because of numbers, and then it was changed back to Monday to make Tuesday's batch of assessment's quicker. Confusing I know, but either way it doesn't really matter as I passed my Level 1 Raft Asessment on the mighty Durance. Bob Timms was the dude running the assessment and man is he a nice bloke? I've met so many good guys now in my short time spent in the rafting circuit. I've been trained by Geraint Rowlands (top bloke), then had further training from my CI (nice man), Jim Hill (also a nice man) and Jon Caterer (just happens to be a nice man) and then only a few days ago I was on a raft with Tim

Myanmar government reported 10,000 people killed by the recent cyclone that struck the country. As of today, the government is still collecting information as to how many casualties were victimized by the typhoon.Let us pray for the souls of the typhoon victims. The havoc that hits Myanmar (former Burma) is a natural disaster. Yet, we can say that people have something to do with it. Why? Of course, heavy rains will surely pour down during typhoons, which may result to floods. We all know that most of the flooded areas are those that have no proper drainage systems or no proper waste management system.But why there are remote areas (provinces) that still susceptible to flood? These are the areas that illegal logging are continuously happening. Myanmar, might as well, belong to these

Seriously, doesn't the title say it all? Well you probably did think Trajan Langdon was dead. But maybe because he was the "Alaskan Assassin" you could've thought that he was in jail or something. But he's not. In fact he plays for CSKA Moscow in the Euroleague. And they won the Euroleague finals this year. And Langdon was the Finals MVP. Not to shabby eh? Check out his stats if you like.For those who don't know, Langdon starred at Duke in college. He had a typical Duke career including a traveling violation with seconds left in the national final trailing UConn by a point. He was drafted 11th overall by the Cleveland Cavaliers in 1999. He lasted 3 season before heading for Europe. Like I said, a typical Duke career. Imagine if he and Dajuan Wagner had panned out. The Cavaliers would not h

By Chuck Lunney I’m sure that many readers have heard that Thursday is the National Day of Prayer. It’s supposed to be a day when believers of all faiths gather to kneel down and pray for healing, hope and peace (at least, I certainly hope that’s what most people would pray for).I do appreciate the sentiment, and I know prayer makes those doing the praying feel better, but unfortunately prayer is one of the most objectively ineffective and useless forms of assistance. Other than making those doing the praying “feel better,” numerous studies have shown time and again that prayer fails to benefit those who are prayed for, and at best it is no better than a placebo. As an atheist, that just seems like a tremendous waste of time and personal effort, which I’d prefer to see spent in

I was just thinking today that our society has the really bad habit of judging peoples' sex lives. Countless subcultures are forced to hide for fear of being labeled a sexual deviant. Why do we care so much what other people do in bed? If I hear one more straight guy or girl frown up at gay or lesbian sex, I'm gonna tell them that's exactly how we feel about the idea of them having sex (not all straights, just the homophobic ones ;). But Back to the point, if someone is into someone gets off on toys, or paddles, or handcuffs, or much kinkier stuff, that's their business. Don't judge them. Just tell them to play safe and keep it moving. Then you can get back to dressing up like a schoolteacher and "disciplining" your bad student. I promise I won't judge you.Get Your Life! Only @

We really enjoyed watching this fun period piece. Excellent script, great casting, lovely set design, solid acting, and tight editing, plus neat clothing (also lack of clothing). Frances McDormand and Amy Adams present a nice contrasting look at pre-World War 2 London, as the good times start to come to an end. No disrespect to Frances McDormand, but Amy Adams in particular is delightful. We also enjoyed her in Enchanted, it's nice to see her in another great film. The film opens with Miss Pettigrew (Frances McDormand) losing another childcare job, becoming homeless, and fairly hopeless. She has a few chance encounters that foreshadow things to come. In desperation, she sneaks into a position with Delysia Lafosse (Amy Adams), that turns out to be not quite the childcare job she th

Are hobbies a child play? or merely a pass time, which we forget when we are busy with our business/career or other important chores? Hobbies play an important role in our lives.

Martin Luther King 'dream' lives on, 40 years after death WASHINGTON -- On April 4 America marks the 40th anniversary of the assassination of Martin Luther King, just as the first black candidate with a viable shot at the White House reinvigorates the late reverend's civil rights "dream." In 1968 the Reverend Martin Luther King Jr was killed by a single bullet to the head while on the balcony of the Lorraine Motel in downtown Memphis, in the southern state of Tennessee. The Nobel peace prize winner was just 39 years old. Had he lived he would have turned 79 in January.

Significant progress in mammography technology continues to help physicians diagnose breast cancer in its earlier stages. When coupled with new treatment options, early diagnosis through mammography screening can significantly improve a woman's chances of survival. That's good news because in the United States more than 200,000 new cases of invasive breast cancer are diagnosed each year.Mammography screening is the single most effective method of early detection. That's why an annual mammogram is recommended for women over 40. A clinical breast examination by a health care professional should also be done on a regular basis. Additionally, women can take charge of their own breast health by understanding their personal risks of the disease, performing a breast self-exam every month and repo

My first story is about how love affects our life. Is this feeling just a momentary, is it chemistry or is it something real? The whole world is ruled by money and sex, but everybody keeps talking and searching for love. Why?Everybody needs something to be happy. For some of us 'happy' means going away for a couple a days with our family; for another happiness is loving and being loved by somebody; and even for many other 'happy' means driving a nice car, getting rich etc. For me happiness means love. Love to my family; my friends; to the person I'm waking up next to every morning. What makes you happy? Share your thoughts!But what is love?Love is lust, attraction, and attachment. Lust exposes people to others, romantic attraction encourages people to focus their energy on mating, and atta

Topic: Discuss the part that money plays in our liveMoney plays an important part in our lives. In several aspects it is the most important thing in life. It is therefore much sought after.Without we could not buy our food, clothes and all the other things that we need to live comforably. We require money to travel, to buy medicine when we are ill and also to pay for the services rendered to us by others. In truth money is almost indispensable to our survival. Most of our activities are therefore directed towards earning as much money as possibleWe use money not only to meet the basic needs of life but also to pay for own advancement. We use it for education which helps us to live a better life. Thousands of students are unable to attend school or continue their studies for want of money.

Masked by oblivion,Haunted by their faces,I see no hope,They're all over me,Closing all around me,Blotting me out,Smothering my thoughts,And attempting to break my spirit...I shall never give in!A maggot in their eyes,I acknowledge their ignorance,They are but puppets,They know not what they do,For that i forgive them...Inhumanity at its worst,Numbness pervades my senses,I'm but a ragdoll,Ragged,Limp,Worn and Pall.Listlessness rips me apart,I sometimes wonder-what keeps me together?It's but the will to survive,The hope of seeing a brighter tomorrow,The burning desire to live freely,And the eagerness to get out there.If you're reading this my friend,You're not by yourself out there,I'm there with you on the walkway,Through the nether we shall venture,I'm with you my comrade,I'm with you.

These are staggering statistics.However, breast cancer death rates are going down. This decline is largely attributed to the benefits of annual mammograms that enable physicians to detect cancer at its earliest stages, and improved treatment programs that help patients better manage their cancer.Both digital and film-based mammography can identify breast disease in women who may have no obvious signs of breast cancer. Historically, mammograms have been conducted using medical X-ray film. Now, new digital imaging technologies are emerging that offer a complementary method for early detection of breast cancer.The a

Thailand which has typically been progressive and culturally tolerant to their large transsexual minority, and even somewhat understanding of their homosexual citizens has backtracked today on sexual minority rights. The Thailand Red Cross has announced that it will no longer accept blood from men who have sex with men, citing the high levels of HIV/AIDS in the gay community.All blood should be tested regardless of what a person does or says, and to single out a whole group of people based on a statistic is wrong. The fact is millions of heterosexuals have HIV, no other racial, religious, or community based group would dare be singled out for fear of the organization being labeled insensitive and discriminatory.Please contact the Thailand Red Cross to let them know that gay blood saves l

The Christin right in America frequently expresses their belief that George Bush is a stalwart defender of Christian principles.

German churches are now [...]

Revised CPR method helps save Arizonans - CNN.com In a bold departure from standard practice, paramedics in most Arizona cities do not follow the guidance of the American Heart Association. Instead, they follow a protocol that was developed at the University of Arizona's Sarver Heart Center, largely by Dr. Gordon Ewy.I've been through CPR training more than once, but every time I have been given the grim statistics on the odds of actually saving someone who has had a cardiac arrest. It's not that you shouldn't try, but you shouldn't feel to bad about failure. Now here's a new method beginning to save lives. Read it, learn it.

Badui peopleIn a fast-changing world, the Badui community in Banten reminds an enigma. A deeply spiritual community, a wholly unique and closed society, the Badui people of Banten steadfastly maintain their ancient ways, rejecting most trappings of modern society.Members of the innermost community, the badui Dalam (inner badui people), live in one of three villages, Cibeo, Dikertawana and Cikeusik, nestled amongst the forested foothills around Mt. Kendang, southeast of Rangkasbitung. Deliberately spurning all contact with the world beyond their group, the Badui Dalam are completely surrounded by a protective buffer zone of badui Luar (outer Badui people).The 400 or so members of this community believe they are the direct lineal descendants of the first people to occupy the Earth, the land
