Do a little research to see more temples and sculptures and you'll end up with a smile on your face and at peace.

For those who life is an eternal recovery

For some people recovering seems to be the normal state of mind. After an event that makes us fall we stop, stand still and recover from the recovery appreciating the peace, celebrating the balance, enjoying life and it's simple happiness without daring any action that could jeopardize this quietness of being.
Deep inside we know that from afar, lurking in the darkness, the next trouble is preparing another attack.

It's a question of when according to our experience. We keep going as if walking on a tightrope pretending nothing is happening, showing a courage we never had but knowing that at any moment a phone call, a letter, an e-mail or someone will come to tell us the news.

Again we fall as if never before. Depending on the grade in our scale of strength the fall have it's schedule of recovery. 
What makes us keep on going is the certainty, not during the falling state for it gives the impression we will never recover, that one day it all will vanish as if by magic.

Don't give up, we shall never surrender.

Nobody

What if Paul McCartney had really died?

Let's assume that the conspiracy was proved and Paul has really died in the car crashed.
What does it make a bunch of people comply being part of the big lie and a man accepting the gig of being a clone of the deceased?
Don't know. 
I belong to the tribe of those who is appalled with the phrase "The show must go on." no matter what.
And how quick the show starts. Would you accept a life of lie?
That disgust me.

"I read the news today, oh boy
About a lucky man who made the grade
And though the news was rather sad
Well, I just had to laugh
I saw the photograph

He blew his mind out in a car
He didn't notice that the lights had changed
A crowd of people stood and stared
They'd seen his face before
Nobody was really sure if he was from the House of Lords" 

On weeping

A - "Don't cry"

B - "Ok. Next time someone tells you a joke or you feel happy DON'T LAUGH."

Crazy chemical experiments

 

Deflecting A Water Stream With A Charged Rod

Blood meets hydrogen peroxide

I just came across with the site "All that is interesting" and there are so many things out of of ordinary things that I felt like sharing. Now I feel like doing these two experiments... (don't wanna cut my finger and I don't know how to make a charged rod.)

You should pay them a visit because there is more crazy experiments and lots of different stuffs.

A garden on your window: Barreau&Charbonnet's easy solution

I came across with Barreau&Charbonnet's volet végetal while searching for a way to hang plants on my window.

There is one apartment in my building that has one of the windows full of plants and i cannot figure how it was done.

This is a very easy do-it-yourself structure and you can find the explanation on how to do it at this page of Barreau&Charbonnet's site.

Can't they sell the thing ready? I'm not very skilled with these materials and not eager to learn it by now.

I watched the video, no, no, not for me. They didn't paint the wood and I don't like the green version either.

Could it be produced in red please? My phone number to inform me when it is ready: 983759275027576720q83.

Thank you! (blue would do)

Frustration-free packaging or Assassination-free packaging?

I was searching for Kindle even though I'll not buy it but I wanted to check the price and came across with the seal "Frustration-free packaging".  launched by Amazon.

I searched for the expression frustration-free and found the "wrap-rage" concept:

"Wrap rage, also called package rage, is the common name for heightened levels of anger and frustration resulting from the inability to open hard-to-remove packaging, particularly some heat-sealed plastic blister packs and clamshells. Consumers suffer thousands of injuries per year, such as cut fingers and sprained wrists, from tools used to open packages and from the packaging itself. Easy-opening systems are available, when desired, to improve convenience to end-users."

The word "frustration" is quite inaccurate and it is also noticeable that all human emotions and reactions are described in a way that sounds pathologic.
The problem are in the packages not the feelings that it provokes, and yes, sometimes it is rage because it is not understandable how can these packages be at the market.

But we don't need an expression that dislocates the problem from the package to the consumer that seems to be suffering of a disease:
"She cannot answer now because she is in a frantic wrap-rage episode! Call her later."

What about "deluded and extrahuman package-creator"? Who invented these packages? Why?
I'll not search because I have a life and good stuffs to read. But... I cannot help wondering how much oil is used in these plastics.

In 2003 The Telegraph published an article claiming that: "More than 60,000 people require hospital treatment each year after injuring themselves opening difficult packaging, research has shown."

"Assassination-free packaging" would be more appropriated but it would not put the blame on the consumer.
Corporations would have to pay if the real reason of these injuries was explained so they decided to defend the idea that it is because of the "frustration" of trying to open something that is not possible to open that people get injured. Nothing related to the packages.

Nothing changed even though they knew about these injuries and some are pretty serious.
I wonder why not a single movie using one of theses packages as a way to kill someone.

Oops, I hope I'm not helping any homicide.

Where are my scissors? I need to open a polish-nail.
