As a parent I find myself with out enough hours during the day to accomplish simple everyday chores. Here is this man who is not only going to run our country in an amazing 6-more days, but he took the time to write a beautiful letter to his daughters Malia and Sasha. He writes: Dear Malia and Sasha, I know that you've both had a lot of fun these last two years on the campaign trail, goi
Stevie Wonder: Someday at Christmas A Christmas song with a great message. This was on You Tube. What affected me and brought me to tears was a comment left by a viewer:SissyGirl First I want to thank you for uploading this song. It was around Christmas in the early 70's that may family was notified my brother died in Vietnam. When i hear this song I think about my brother. This song allows me a g
So, the hubby gets a wee bit bent out of shape last night because I [again] "fiddled" with his 'stuff'. No, not in THAT way!
Anyway....my hubby uses a straight razor to shave and he "rigged" up this piece of copper wire to circle around a coffee cup, in which he keeps his shaving soap. This wire holds his shaving brush and usually it sits pretty "comfy like" hanging
With diff-ext, GNOME users can compare and merge files from within Nautilus. If, instead, you use KDE 3, try out kdiff-ext from the same site, which works with Konqueror. Each utility handles paths to files and directories and invokes an external diff tool to perform the grunt work. With diff-ext you can easily compare two files with different names, from different directories, or whole directory

I watched Rated K (ABS CBN) today and have been touched with one of the featured stories. The story was about the unconditional love of a man to his deceased wife and because he still want to express his love to his wife, he created a blog LETTERS2MAMA.

Winter has descended upon the magical land of Chicago. Okay, it's not freezing yet but the evenings are now 45 degrees.

Description:In 2004, the USA Network in the US screened an adaptation of the first serial, produced by actor Bruce Willis's production company and starring Jeffrey Donovan as detective Creegan. The premise was somewhat different than that of the UK series; rather than acquiring the ability to sense criminals, Creegan's recovery from a gunshot wound to the head instead strips him of his impulse con

'Bulimia': the normal image conjured up is of an emaciated model or troubled teenager, not a rounded 69 year old Northern bloke with a taste for pies and official buffets.

Try to recollect the highlights of recent British elections, and what do we remember? Prescotts punch, Portillos face, Majors soapbox.

John 20:19-29 Jesus Confronts ThomasIt was just an ordinary day back in Maybole, Scotland. I had been making house calls in the village of Dunure, which was about 9 miles away from the manse. I was heading home and thinking about what Evelyn might be making for my dinner. The sun was shining and the sea looked beautiful as I coasted my way back home.When I got to the manse, I expected Lynsey and Lauren to come out to meet me, but they didn’t. I walked through the back door and met Evelyn in the kitchen. I could see in her eyes that something was wrong.“John, I’ve got some bad news,” she said quietly. “Your Mom is dead.”I was stunned. I knew that my mom was ill and had been for years, but this was sudden and completely unexpected. I obviously couldn’t take it in, so I think Ev

If you are a dog lover, you will love this. I got this from one of my friends who is also a die hard dog lover.THE MEANING OF LIFE Being a veterinarian, I had been called to examine a ten-year old Irish Wolfhound named Belker. The dog's Owners, Ron, his wife, Lisa, and their little boy, Shane, Were all very attached to Belker and they were hoping for a miracle. I examined Belker and found he was dying of cancer. I told the family. We couldn't do anything for Belker, and offered to perform the euthanasia procedure for the old dog in their home. As we made arrangements, Ron and Lisa told me they thought it would be good for the four-year old Shane to observe the procedure. They felt as though Shane might learn something from the experience. The next day, I felt the familiar catch in my
It's been a big week for sin. First, a Vatican official talked about sin in a newspaper interview. Not a big deal, they probably do it a lot of the time, but this suddenly became 'Vatican announces 7 new deadly sins', and before you could say Magisterium every blog and media outlet was following the story (but credit to Reuters for reporting the facts).
It probably didn't help that the Vatican was slow off the mark. This particular horse was 2 laps round the track by the time they shut the stable door and pointed out that everyone had got it wrong (they should have asked Rowan Williams for advice on that one).
But it was all worth it for the this cartoon from Indexed (the Pope might not agree):

When kids shows try to educate about something as serious as child abuse the results are unintentionally hilarious. I am sure that the makers of Pooh Corner were very sincere in what they were trying...
GK Chesterton said a lot of profound things, here is one of them:
"Because children have abounding vitality, because they are in spirit fierce and free, therefore they want things repeated and unchanged.
They always say, "Do it again"; and the grown-up person does it again until he is nearly dead. For grown-up people are not strong enough to exult in monotony.
But perhaps God is strong enough... It is possible that God says every morning, "Do it again," to the sun; and every evening, "Do it again," to the moon.
It may not be automatic necessity that makes all daisies alike: it may be that God makes every daisy separately, but has never got tired of making them.
It may be that He has the eternal appetite of infancy; for we have sinned and grown old, and our Father is younger than we."

If you think you can harass a robot and get away with it, think again. Aiko is one feisty female bot, created to answer doors, be a tourist guide, interact with your customers, etc. Aika was created by Dr. Le Trung in his basement with a really meager budget.What Dr. Trung demonstrates in the video are the more deviant uses you can put Aiko to. The lesson to be learned here is if you touch a robot's breasts, prepare to be karate-chopped! And no Dr. Trung, we don't think it's Photoshopped. According to Dr. Trung, Aiko has been wearing the same clothes for months and any fashionable donations would be welcome. Check here for her measurements.Sources: Engadget, SpikedHumor, & ProjectAiko

Slight hiccup today when it emerged that a photo of an MP (the Secretary of State) was slightly 'retouched' because he hadn't actually been present when the picture was taken. Some other MPs turned up on time, but the final picture seems to have accidentally merged them with the separate picture of the missing person. A terrible mix-up, even the hospital trust where the photo was taken and the MP's press office appeared confused. In this new era of spin free politics, exemplified by the recent original speeches from Gordon Brown we must guard against accidentally being misled by this kind of thing. In another news item, Gordon has just published a new book about everyday heroes, which he claims to have written himself after talking to the people featured. I see its being serialised in the Daily Mail at the moment. Interesting that several of the people featured in the extensive chapters had only (allegedly) had brief 3-4 minute phone calls with the man until they met him at the b

Wow! This is the second time this week we have sexy pictures of Alyssa Milano promoting her women’s baseball line Touch. I can’t explain how excited I get when I have the opportunity to write about a celebrity that really turns me on. It feels like my first threesome. Actually, that didn’t work out so well… I couldn’t get little Tuna up for the life of me, but the second time I was the Terminator. Anyway, enjoy Alyssa in all her hotness because I have a feeling we won’t be seeing her again for a long time.
Rakesh said to Deepa, "I'll bet you fifty rupees, I can kiss you on the lips without touching them.""You're crazy," said Deepa. "That's impossible. Here's a fifty rupee bet that says you can't."The two fifty rupee notes were placed on the mantelpiece and Rakesh then enfolded Deepa and for ten minutes kissed her passionately, intimately, and moistly.She broke away at last, panting and disheveled, and said, "You did nothing BUT touch my lips."Rakesh pushed the two fifty rupee notes toward her and said, "So I lose."!!!
