Fishing boat evacuated after smoke in engine room
Of course, many will be praying for those on that boat in Plymouth. The day I and a friend went to Plymouth to check out the scenery...the harbor was lined and strewn with a mixture of boats, sitting quietly on the waters in the bay. The sky was not so blue, but clouds wereblended here and there..just to let the crowd know...they were there, fluffy and white for sure. And, the water was not so blue in the forefront but more a green hue. Ah! But as one looked yonder and far, beyond the jetti...there it was that lapis lazuli color of blue...and it so reminded me of that old American song.. Suffice to say, amidst the accidents that occur in this native land, its beauty is still ever ever there...Thank God... (Jul 22, 2008 | post #1)
Dolly Parton Threatens to Sue Howard Stern Over Racist & Sexual...
Perhaps he needs something like this to put in right back on his heels. Since he did something to cause her enough anguish over this, and is threatening her reputation in any way...then he should not get away with it...Justice should be served... My best to Dolly Parton on this situation Majorie (May 18, 2008 | post #175)
Scientist: Smiling can hurt your health
I believe this is correct. I worked with a manager who had the worst temper tantrums. He banged the walls, threw fans into the next room, and picked up a heavy object one time, and wanted to smash a customer with it. It was very scarey! I was not used to a temper like this! After a time, he began to "melt down" so to speak, but oh boy...when he lost his temper...he would grab a telephone and if you were holding it...you would get whacked in your chin. I don't recall ever having experienced the likes of that in a position. I have not had that happen since...thankfully ! Majorie (May 18, 2008 | post #2)
Doughnut shop worker charged with spying on women in bathroom
This is exactly what happened in a former apartment complex I lived in. Maintenance workers set up cameras, installed them in various apartments...mine was one of them, and proceeded to watch the footage of what was on that tape. His name is Dave ?, and he is of the extreme perversion. The management won't fire him because they don't believe he did this, but he wonders through hallways...at night, and he slips into women's apartments. He will give the key out to others in the apartment building, and outside the complex. Women are drugged, and the pervert is still getting away with it. He gave the key to this hothead named John who was beating his galpal all the time. John is a substance abuser, and he likes to instill fear in women--he's a bully...and does the most perverse things (so I hear) ..no one would ever think of...sickness of the mind. The maintenance manager illegally put a surveillance on a woman--over 55 years of age, and watched her (via the hidden camera) get dressed, take her shower, and other things. He's going to be going to jail soon because it can't be covered over much longer, along with the other pervert, John. Majorie (May 7, 2008 | post #120)
Child abuse may 'mark' genes in the brains of suicide victims
Suicide in this current age is more prevalent than it's ever ever been. I don't think the Scientists are going to have the answer or even are the answer. There are abusers who abuse others. That is a known fact, and a study has been done on that..a long time ago. An abuser will try to instill fear into a person--child or an adult..could even be an elderly person. The abuser does not set up boundaries. They are bullys in one sense and cowards in another sense. And, they do look at life and people in a different way than say "normal" people. Sometimes, substance abuse enters in..and brings forward an increase in abuse to whomever, not just children. There is a lot of violence on t.v. today, videos and the most horrible video games that create that "kill and conquer" humans. This was never promoted in years past, and it doesn't enlist anything good in this current age. When the pressure of this current world, the violence on t.v., the horrible videos, and the halting of parents to rightly discipline children (because children need discipline--it gives them boundaries), all rolled together with drug or alcohol abuse--you've got a culture that lends way to suicide. Compassion is needed, and that they can turn to God Who is their greatest Advocate ....their comfort, their strength, and Anchor.... Majorie (May 7, 2008 | post #15)
Robot reinvents bypass surgery
Just thinking..just as it is possible for a doctor with the highest of good intentions to do the miraculous for a patient..to do that patient good without touching or by the human hand... so can it be done, as well? if a wanna'be doctor or nurse has a flight of the moronic, and if this type of device is available to do specific surgeries on say...a woman, of whom that nurse or wanna be doctor (speculation only)doesn't care particularly for...and wants to do some damage-- wouldn't it be possible for this kind of device to fall into the wrong hands? and do some serious damage to a patient's health. It's simply an awareness factor, I think...given the times we live in... Medical knowledge is good as long as the person holding the device has the right and good mind set ...to want to enhance life. When medical coupled with sci-tech enters, it can go off in a very different manner--I would be skeptical of this kind of advancement.... Majorie (Apr 30, 2008 | post #2)
Research: Older adults are happiest Americans
Happy? When you get older, life is supposed to be less complex. The world in which is prevalent now is very complex, and people of this current generation cause it be so. Life is what you make it. It's depends on your outlook, and if you or I run into someone that has a bad attitude...you can give into that bad attitude or you can walk away from it. I mean, you don't have to get caught up with their baggage. I find the world--some people, not all..thank God, less tolerant. It wasn't always like that, and it has nothing to do with President Bush either... it is the mainstream of people. And, it used to be a more safe world; it isn't today. There is more hype today than I think I have ever seen. It wasn't like this--not even when the Viet Nam war was occurring. Hate is more prevalent today and malicious crimes. So..although I'm older I wouldn't say that life is less complex...I'd say it's more and there are those groups of people that like to have it so. I thank God for the days of R & R, but then it's time to get back into doing-- Why? In order to help others..to encourage...to care for and have a concern for and to promote a better outlook even in this ungracious time. Majorie (Apr 18, 2008 | post #15)
Scientists invent microscopic operating table for 1mm worm
I'm curious. Does this mean that if some kind of surgery was done (and I'm not pointing a finger at anyone), and the surgery was done poorly...or was done with something left undone..that this particular "worm" could locate it. I did not read the whole article, but I am curious about that. Majorie (Apr 13, 2008 | post #13)
Good sexual intercourse lasts minutes, not hours, therapists say
I have to add a couple of comments to this article. I do not know how they came up with that kind of information, but it is not true. If you and your partner are very much inclined to engage in sexual intercourse, and enjoy it to the max..it will last much longer than 3-13 minutes. If a woman or a man, are less inclined to mentally and physically interface with this kind of wonderful activity, then it will last anywhere from 3-10 minutes. The average person or couples may be too weary from their schedules to fully enjoy this delightful communication, shall I say, and 3-13 minutes may be all they can muster. As long as there is some enjoyment and release taking place...not being a "chore" but enjoying the sensualness of sex...it could go on for much longer than 13 minutes..but let's be glad for the quick fix of 3-13 minutes...

Hackers embed flashing animations on epilepsy support forum
It's being done in more places than anyone knows. I believe this kind of exploit came about somewhere in 2000/2001...and it does take an especially diabolical mindset to do this--a group of people who set no boundaries...and you might be surprised how they did it by this suggestion: digital devices meant to work for a common good were worked for evil due to the doer of it. Micro mini chips is another very good possibility...and the penchant to disable in whatever evil plotting it takes... Sciencetogists? You might be giving them too too much credit...but control is most likely the main theme... (Mar 30, 2008 | post #9)
Scientists train fish to 'catch' themselves
Is our tax $$ going towards this? And, aren't they supposed to dealing with the issues of space and planets and all that. Do they have to go bothering the fish...they know enough to go in or not go into a net. Think about it! They're going to go and mess up their routine...and I think they should keep on dealing with issues more important....like checking out those other planets, stars and moon..blue, strawberry, yellow moons....get into that, and explain away!

Subterfuge, counter-surveillance and assassination: it's cervic...
After a papsmear, I was diagnosed with cervical cancer. I had gone through an especially upsetting year with very odd happenings surrounding me. There were a series of break-ins in the complex I lived in. My health was out of balance, and I didn't realize till I received the the letter from my doctor, at the time, I would need to go for further procedures in the prevention of cervical cancer. When I recieved that letter, I had people praying for me. It was an upset, of course. There was one person who evidently knew about it long before I received that letter however. That was the person who elected to accomodate someone else in placing this into my body. The comment from that person--male & about late 30s..."it was like putting perfume on the tip of a pin." It's an odd statement to make for sure, and I didn't quite understand it at the first. I guess someone went out of their way to cause upset in my system. The doctor set up the appointments for the procedures, and each one was done..most of the doctors involved in assisting were very good. It is something that will have to checked every year I believe, and it is time-consuming but it's important for my health. Cervical cancer to happen at any age, and most cases are curable...thank God. Still, I give most of the credit to God...and thank those who prayed for me. Majorie (Mar 25, 2008 | post #2)
This couple is telling you the truth, but The Truth is hard to take in these days. Jesus can be anywhere He so chooses to be..and if He picked this couples closet, what's the wrong in that? Afterall, I saw the right wing of an angel in the door of an office I worked in. No one else saw it, but if you believe...and it's not a figment of anybody's imagination...then it is entirely possible..includin g the face of Jesus in a closet. And, then..I saw an angel on Rt. 53 in 2002. Have a great day...Majorie (Mar 20, 2008 | post #221)
$10 million bounty for super-efficient cars
There are a few men I know that have such technical knowledge about cars--old and new, it stuns the mind! One of them, perhaps two, are into efficient gas producing cars. One of them in on the road, and sometimes living in Pennsylvania. The other resides on the south shore in MASS. That particuluar individual is into hybrids and electric vehicles and oftentimes will sit and chat about these very current issues. The gentleman, a Navy veteran, is trying seeking to make the public aware of the selling at a very low price, a device that sits under the hood and enables a person's vehicle to save on gas and produce more miles to the gallon. Therefore, it would be more economical for those who seek that. The other man has been focused on hybrids and electric vehicles, along with saving on mpg. If anyone is interested in this kind of experience, please write me. I think, and hopefully, without too much laborious chatting.. Steve and Dave might be able to help out. The American public can use all the help they can get. Specifications and further details can be given by them. I simply wanted to make the public aware of these kinds of benefits..and helps.

Hi there.. I know that God would love to save all people.."He wants none to perish" however, I have to ask you..and I might be a little off center. You tell me? Where do you think Hilter went? Do you think that God approved of him? Tell me..I reserve my right to the answer & leave it with you. Let's put you--probably nice people, and you live in the region that Hitler did. You have green eyes. He only likes people with green eyes, and the rest he no like. He has a really bad bad attitude prob & he takes you or me & puts us in prisons. Prisons that are set up to his liking but not yours or mine. Cold, damp & with very little clothing. (I just wanna' interject here--God is a God of compassion & kindness). Now, let's see..Hitler doesn't like it that you work; he wants to stop that too. He didn't like people talking about anything except to sit & do what he wanted. He called doctors in to do some very crude and ugly procedures. You could not leave your dwelling at all because if you did...you were brought to a place & boarded onto a train (not luxury) and brought to a camp. They called it a concentration camp & brutalized people..just like you and me...& you... Where do you think he is going? Do you think he will be rewarded with a home filled with peace, love and joy..since he didn't elect to give it while he was alive? Or...do you think, after he ravaged you brutally..that he is going to another destination? Free will to decide is given to all people.."God wants none to perish" but He will not force His will on you... Have a great day! (Feb 24, 2008 | post #27358)
