What is your true element?

Earth

Your element is earth: Wise, solitary, mysterious
and loving. You are very wise. Your wise as in
you know things others do not. You can see past
the stereotypes and see the real people behind
their facades, people will often come to you
for help and advice. Quite solitary and
somewhat shy around people because you prefer
animals and plants. Animals aren't afraid to
show themselves or what they are feeling and
plants are fun to nurture. You are very strong
in your silence, if you set your mind on
something you will often times pursue it to the
end. Sometimes you just want to get away, so
you seek refuge in the forest where you can
have time to think and try to sort out your
emotions. The sound of the wind usually calms
you, especially moving through the trees. Life
to you is something precious and should not be
taken for granted.

Good Morning

Wow, I have been slacking here on my personal blog, but in my defense I have been working hard on Sunshine's Blah Blah Blogger. Such hard work, all the research, then choosing or writing an article. Don't get me wrong I absolutely love it; I could do it for a living. I am very proud to be, in my humble opinion, a part of history. As Andy Warhol says "Everyone has their 15 minutes of fame" Well I'm trying to make mine a bit longer.
I will potentially begin posting my novel next week, one chapter a month until it is complete. I went to a psychic years ago and she told me my name would live on past my life, being as I was writing the book way back then I continued to do it. Everyone, just about, who has read it loved it. My sister actually passed out the first couple of chapters at her workplace in Dallas, TX and they continued to ask her for more chapters. I was mortified, embarrassed and wanted to die. I didn't mean for 'strangers' to read it! So I stopped writing for a very long time. A few years later I took several college classes, Creative Writing I, II, and advanced. My last class teacher ripped my book to shreds on the fact that I wrote individual chapters one in first person then in third etc...As well she said I wrote how I speak and according to her you can't do that either, in other words she hated it. So I put it away again. My sister, my mother, my son and numerous friends argued that many books are written in different styles or as you speak and are quite successful. The Catcher in the Rye for one example. But I was still not convinced. My son said "Mom if you had a million dollar winning lottery ticket wouldn't you cash it in?" Well that is how he feels about my book. So I took it out and wrote some more chapters. Then out came the Harry Potter series by JK Rowlings. Damn, a great fantasy storyline, just like mine, three characters two boys and a girl, just like mine...Damn. So away it went again. Well now I have decided that no matter what outside influences, positive or negative, how will I ever know if I don't finish it? How would my characters feel if I never make them known? They are even screaming at me to make them a reality, they haunt me and in fact I even dream about them! So I have decided to finish my book and this time I mean really finish it AND more importantly I will be submitting it to publishers, so by the end of 2006 my characters could potentially be a household name. Why not? If I don't think so who will? Nobody. So I have to start believing in not only myself but my characters and my family and friends. So I'm going to start up again and after I do a little bit of research on copyrights (just to make sure nobody can steal it) I will start posting it one chapter per month. I have five complete chapters now but that will give me time to edit and complete new chapters. This book was started around 1986ish and I have to believe that it will be published in 2006...gads 20 years...well you can't win if you don't play, right?

All the bandwidth you'll ever need!!

By Hiawatha Bray July 18, 2005

It's the Internet's favorite price point: zero. From software to movie trailers, the freebies just keep coming. Usually they're come-ons, designed to focus our eyeballs on digital advertisements. But some online giveaways are utterly devoid of strings, and utterly compelling.

Information is often free; storing and transmitting it never is. Luckily these online services are dirt-cheap for most of us. Your Internet service provider probably throws in free website hosting as part of your monthly subscription fee. People who want to set up their own Internet domains subscribe to independent hosting services. Some of these outfits will give you half a gigabyte of online storage for a mere $10 a month. That's ample for most personal websites and blogs.

Then there are companies like Blogger.com, which will host your blog for free. Blogger.com is owned by Google. With its billions of dollars in ad revenues, the huge search company can afford to be generous, especially with disk drive prices so low. Even at retail, a gigabyte of data storage now costs about 75 cents; bought in bulk it's cheaper yet. And remember that most websites are mainly text, which takes up very little space.

But although a good-size website, complete with pictures, might use up 10 megabytes, a single podcast can easily devour that much storage space. If you upload new podcasts on a regular basis, and maintain an archive of your older shows, you'll have hundreds of megabytes in need of a good home. It gets worse for video bloggers -- that small but growing band who use camcorders to chronicle their lives and times. Not many people are publishing their personal movies yet, but those who do must figure out how to store files that can easily hit 50 or 100 megabytes.

Then there's a problem most Web page hobbyists never consider -- the bandwidth factor. Web hosting services spend lots of money on their connections to the Internet. As usage increases, the hosting companies must buy faster, larger Internet connections. To cover the cost of all of this bandwidth, the companies set data-transfer limits on each account. Text-based sites rarely bump up against these limits. But any podcaster or video blogger with a sizable audience will soon hit his data-transfer limit, and receive a bill for excess bandwidth use.

So it's surprising to learn that only 28,000 Internet users have signed up at ourmedia.org, a new Internet service that's giving away both storage and bandwidth, for personal use, at no charge. Any podcaster, text blogger, or video blogger can sign up for a free account at ourmedia.org, and publish as much as he wants, for as long as he wants.

It sounds like a classic Internet come-on: free bandwidth in exchange for a flood of on-screen advertisements. But ourmedia.org's not driven by a quest for profit. It's the latest venture of the Internet Archive, an ongoing effort to catalog and preserve every document posted online. Brewster Kahle, a veteran of the long-gone Cambridge supercomputer firm Thinking Machines, launched the archive in 1996, with money earned from a successful Internet business venture. Today, the archive, located online at www.archive.org, gets funding from multiple sources, including the National Science Foundation and the Library of Congress. It contains about 40 billion pages spanning most of the Web's history.

The Internet Archive is, alas, a mess. Its crude search tool is lousy for looking up files on specific topics. On the other hand, if you want to review past postings at a specific site -- say, CNN.com's coverage of the Sept. 11 attacks -- you'll find it here.

For all of its flaws, the archive has made an excellent start at preserving our online history. It could do an even better job if more Internet users published their files here in the first place. Enter ourmedia.org, an idea conceived by a couple of the archive's biggest fans.

Journalist J.D. Lasica, author of the new book ''Darknet," cooked up the plan along with Marc Canter, cofounder of software company Macromedia Inc.

''We both saw that digital media had become so pervasive that people can pretty easily create this stuff," said Lasica, ''but it's still pretty hard to share this stuff."

So Lasica and Canter drew up a proposal for an eternal free hosting service. They successfully pitched it to Kahle as a way to enhance the archive, at lower cost than the current method, which uses ''spider" software to search for new Web pages.

''We can bring you contemporary culture," Lasica told Kahle, ''and we'll put it up on your servers."

Pornography is banned from ourmedia.org; so are files that violate copyright laws. Otherwise, anything goes.

Despite the Internet Archive's vast size, it had plenty of unused disk space. Which is why Internet publishers can publish their biggest, fattest multimedia files on the ourmedia.org servers for free -- a price that Lasica said will never increase.

That's easy to say with just 28,000 users. But after reading this, legions of Boston Globe readers will no doubt sign up, then tell their friends. Next thing you know, ourmedia.org has several million users and a massive bill for storage and bandwidth. How can the company keep giving it away?

''We're going to look for different additional partnerships," said Lasica. ''We're already in discussions with Yahoo about that."

They don't just want money from the huge Internet company. Lasica and Canter want Yahoo and other companies to host portions of ourmedia.org on their own computers. They hope to transform Ourmedia into a distributed storage system, housed in servers worldwide. Companies could donate unused server space and bandwidth, allowing the ourmedia.org service to expand without limit.

As for the indexing problem, Lasica is also talking to Blinkx.com, the company that recently launched a podcast search engine. Blinkx.com uses speech-recognition software to identify the words used in audio and video files. Then it indexes those words so you can look up podcasts and videos on any topic.

With corporate financial and technical support, ourmedia.org could become the Internet's richest and most user-friendly multimedia site -- and for publishers, definitely the cheapest. It's such an appealing vision that it's sure to enrich someone. Not Lasica, Canter, and Kahle, perhaps. But certainly the rest of us.

Cure urinary tract infections with Alka-Seltzer. Just dissolve two tablets in a glass of water and drink it at the onset of the symptoms.

Honey remedy for skin blemishes... Cover the blemish with a dab of honey and place a Band-Aid over it. Honey kills the bacteria, keeps the skin sterile, and speeds healing. Works overnight.

Listerine therapy for toenail fungus... Get rid of unsightly toenail fungus by soaking your toes in Listerine mouthwash. The powerful antiseptic leaves your toenails looking healthy again.

Easy eyeglass protection... To prevent the screws in eyeglasses from loosening, apply a small drop of Maybeline Crystal Clear nail polish to the threads of the screws before tightening them.

Smart splinter remover...just pour a drop of Elmer's Glue-All over the splinter, let dry, and peel the dried glue off the skin. The splinter sticks to the dried glue.

Hunt's tomato paste is a boil cure. Cover the boil with Hunt's tomato paste as a compress. The acids from the tomatoes soothe the pain and bring the boil to a head.

Balm for broken blisters...To disinfect a broken blister, dab on a few drops of Listerine ... a powerful antiseptic.

Heinz vinegar to heal bruises... Soak a cotton ball in white vinegar and apply it to the bruise for 1 hour. The vinegar reduces the blueness and speeds up the healing process.

Kill fleas instantly. Dawn dish washing liquid does the trick. Add a few drops to your dog's bath and shampoo the animal thoroughly. Rinse well to avoid skin irritations. Goodbye fleas.

Rainy day cure for dog odor... Next time your dog comes in from the rain, simply wipe down the animal with Bounce or any dryer sheet, instantly making your dog smell springtime fresh.

Eliminate ear mites... All it takes is a few drops of Wesson corn oil in your cat's ear. Massage it in, and then clean with a cotton ball. Repeat daily for 3 days. The oil soothes the cat's skin, smothers the mites, and accelerates healing.

Quaker Oats for fast pain relief....It's not for breakfast anymore! Mix 2 cups of Quaker Oats and 1 cup of water in a bowl and warm in the microwave for 1 minute, cool slightly, and apply the mixture to your hands for soothing relief from arthritis pain.

Firsts & Lasts

This was sent to me from my good friend Jennifer she said it came from her friends Rose's Blog. Here it is, very touching.

Firsts & Lasts
Lately I've been feeling sad about not remembering all of the "lasts" in my life. The not remembering the "lasts" seems to haunt me. Here are some that have been on my mind lately:

I don't remember the last time my daddy was well enough to drive me somewhere in a car

I don't remember when my 16 year old lost his last tooth

I don't remember the last time I held my youngest son at my breast.

I don't remember the last time my second son called his sister "honey"

I don't remember the last time I rocked a sick child all night

I don't remember the last time I cried over the 2 babies that I lost last year

I don't remember the last time I thought that God would answer my prayers just because He loved me

I don't remember the last time my daughter crawled

I don't remember waking up in the morning excited because I was special and good things were going to happen to me

My lasts have been replaced by some "firsts". Some of them are bittersweet...

For the first time I have been able to do something for my Daddy after all the years he cherished and cared for me

For the first time my 16 year old got his braces off and smiles like a confident adult

For the first time my youngest son can pour his own drink without spilling!

For the first time I saw my second son and the sister he called "honey" sitting at the computer working together as friends

For the first time in years all of my children have been well and noone has had to get up at night

For the first time I can think of my lost sons and smile, knowing that I will be with them soon

For the first time I feel confident that God will answer the most important prayer "thy will be done in my life" knowing that I will be better off for it

For the first time I saw my daughter walk off to school last year after homeschooling for 7 years and soar like an eagle!

For the first time I realize that my being special and good things happening to me isn't important. It's because He is special that I get up determined that good things will happen for the Kingdom despite how they affect me. It's not about me!

The "lasts" still get me down, and sometimes threaten to break my heart, but then the "firsts" pick me up and put me on my way again!

This a pic of me back in April, and my sister oh, about 15 years ago, we don't have any recent ones, although we need to get them, because she is just as beautiful today as she was then. In fact, more so, because she had grown spiritually and now her beauty is more than just skin deep...
