I wonder when - if ever - I'll stop calling myself a girl and start saying "woman" and when I'll start saying "men" instead of "boys".
If I think of women and men, I think of people who are much older than I ( 10 years at least). I never thought of 20-year-olds as "girls" or "boys" when I was still a child. Hmm...

Sales of chewing gum are at record levels (and creating a costly headache for council clean-up teams). Why?

It may be the scourge of the bus seat, the pavement and the school desk, but we love it more than ever.

Gum consumption in the UK is at its highest for decades, according to research by Mintel, and is expected to rise further in the coming years. Last year in the UK, £317m was spent on gum, up 37% on 2001.

And while Wayne Rooney may be one of its high-profile consumers, it is the middle-aged who are driving its growth. Nearly half of people aged between 45 and 54 chewed gum in 2005, twice as many in that age group in 1975, says Mintel. And three-quarters of children aged between seven and 14 indulged last year, slightly down on previous years.

TYPICAL GUM CHEWER
Female, aged 15-24
Lower middle-class, employed, large family

Mintel's consumer analyst Julie Sloan says it's no longer considered just a sweet.

"It's become more relevant to today's consumer. People are thinking it's two-in-one - a sweet fix and cleaning your teeth or freshening breath at the same time. More people are light users, maybe a few times a month, which suggests it's more a case of sharing gum like after a spicy meal, rather than a standard habit."

A stronger focus on healthy eating has also contributed to gum's appeal, she says, because people are turning to sugar-free gum in an attempt to make some kind of "sacrifice" in their diet. The sugar-free brands now make up three-quarters of the total market.

Stress relief is another factor, although not so many gum-lovers admit to it, says Ms Sloan. Traditional spikes in gum demand occur at New Year, Lent and No Smoking Day, when nicotine consumption falls. With a smoking ban in pubs due in April, chewing gum sales are expected to rise another third before 2010.

Speckled pavements

So will the UK's streets pay the penalty? After all, gum chewers, including Sir Alex Ferguson and Britney Spears, like to spit their gum out. And not usually into a litter bin.

It's a habit costing councils, using high-powered hoses, a futile £4.5m a year. To do the clean-up job properly would cost them £150m, it's estimated.

But we are hopeful a rise in gum sales does not mean more litter, says Peter Gibson of Keep Britain Tidy, who is encouraged by events in Preston, where gum-dropping fell by 80% in a pilot scheme last year. The council invested in education through advertising, better enforcement of fines and free plastic pouches to deposit the gum.

"We're using that model and trying to develop it with local councils into a national campaign," says Mr Gibson.

Other imaginative solutions have also been tried. In Huddersfield, people were invited to put their used gum on a Yes or No board to answer a debate. And in Manchester, a man equipped with a megaphone humiliated offenders in the city centre.

Meanwhile the holy grail - a biodegradable gum - is also being developed.

It's easy to think of gum as a very American product of the modern world, but the ancient Greeks loved a chew too - for them it was mastiche, a resin taken from tree bark.

White settlers in the US adopted the Native American habit for spruce gum, but it wasn't until the 1860s, when the magic ingredient chicle was added to give it a stickiness, that modern chewing gum was born. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/magazine/4672256.stm

Life is so difficult that I dread living it alone.
If you were with me, wouldn't be the same?
Pain oh why are you here so soon
If mine is like yours, would you give me no blame?
Oh my Lord whom I'm so afraid of
Shall I ever be pardoned and be cursed no more by love
Pardon me my Lord I bear it no more

Coming home this morning, I met a pretty girl walking on the street. How beautifull she is! I thought. But what makes her look beautiful in my eyes? Would she look beautiful in the eyes of another person? If so, what is beauty then? If I talked to her, would she still be beautiful in my eyes? If no, what makes me change my opinion? So, I'm sitting here reflecting on what beauty is. Does the outside reflects the inside? There are some plants that look beautiful but are dangerous. I like lions but they may kill me. There I thought of some people, not beautiful but kind, helpful, and lovely to be with. They always make me lough and I enjoy being with them. Then I wondered, those are like medecine, tasting bad but there deeds are healing. And it came again, Does the outside reflects the inside? And what is beauty then?

Queen of the library Catherine Cookson has lost her crown after falling from the top 10 most borrowed authors for the first time since records began. The romance author, who died aged 91 in 1998, lost top place to children's author Jacqueline Wilson three years ago, but latest figures put her at 11.

Wilson kept the number one spot for the third year running.

Thriller writers, such as Ian Rankin, also feature heavily, suggesting reading tastes may be changing.

According to the figures published by the Public Lending Right (PLR) since 1984, Wilson - whose works include The Illustrated Mum and The Story of Tracy Beaker - notched up more than two million loans during 2004/5.

The author, currently Children's Laureate, said she was "thrilled" to be number one for the third year running.

MOST BORROWED AUTHORS JULY 2003-JUNE 2004

1. Jacqueline Wilson
2. Josephine Cox
3. Danielle Steel
4. James Patterson
5. Mick Inkpen
6. Janet and Allan Ahlberg
7. John Grisham
8. Ian Rankin
9. Roald Dahl
10. Bernard Cornwell

Source: Public Lending Right

Chick lit novelist Josephine Cox was second in the list of most borrowed authors, followed by Danielle Steel.

Thriller writers James Patterson, John Grisham, Ian Rankin and Bernard Cornwell were in the top 10, alongside children's writers Mick Inkpen, Janet and Allan Ahlberg and Roald Dahl.

In the last list, Cookson - who has had more than 100 books published - was at fifth place, but new figures suggest the love affair with UK readers could be over after plummeting to number 11.

In a separate list of the most borrowed adult fiction titles, she does not figure in the top 10 at all.

Patricia Cornwell tops this chart with her thriller Blow Fly, with John Grisham, James Patterson and Ian Rankin figuring highly.

The story is very different to five years ago, when Cookson occupied nine out of the top 10 places in the fiction list.

Simon Brett, chairman of the PLR Advisory Committee, said: "The data helps to build up a revealing picture of the nation's reading habits. This year sees crime fiction and thrillers stealing a march on romance.

"Maybe this is an indication that national tastes are becoming increasingly macabre."

Sorry for doing it so badly.

*

humiliate yourself
cut down you hair
burn stigmata on your hands
cut wrists and palms
humiliate yourself
fall on your knees
in the middle of the street
on asphalt
in front of a muddy puddle
besides an ugly Lutheran church
in the bus-stop of bus number five
lower your head
and drink the muddy waters
with great draughts
humiliate yourself
lower than an animal
lower than a MACHINE
be fs

now
write a poem
how does it feel like?




*

with big cars death is carted
day is faded
stone is grey
electricity gives no love
with big cars death is carted
honor the work of the driver
don't search for his eye
behind the dark glasses
his hands are firmly on the rudder
he does not err from the road
through night and day
through rain and sleet
drought and blizzard
with big cars death is carted
noone errs from that road

Compulsory miltary service, yay!

Luckily, we can get extension of time due to still being in school if we fill in a blank and get a document from school that proves that we study there. (well, or at least attend to classes)

Probably we can extension of time when we go to university too, which makes it probably at least three years till being a mindless zombie bearing a weapon.

But still, it bodes military slavery.. um, we mean service to be able to protect our country with the price of our life and killing other people and so on. Right. Exactly. Yeah. What fun.

I borrowed a book from the library... Like most of the books at my Uni library it looks very old... the pages are yellow, the cover is falling apart, even the language has some old traits...not too archaic, but not too young either... It perfectly looked like many other books I've borrowed, printed in the 60s. So I turned it and check the print date on the last page.... July 1982. :eek: It didn't age well... :rolleyes: It's funny, I'm oversensitive about my age these days, and even the book, that old worn-out book, is technically slightly younger than me ;) Yeah I like to find the romantic dramatic side of things :D

I do agree, I was just venting some frustration built up while reading a thread that began with a question about what came before religion or God, and moved to predestination and God's omniscience. Perhaps you've read the thread. I just thought neither side made any progress throughout the argument, despite continued argument, and this built up some inner frustration in me.

Ten years ago, a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire... The A-Team.

Don't you just love it how a helicopter crashes into a cliff, falls down, explodes and then the bad guys come out, their hands up? Or how they never mangae to wound anyone with their automatic guns, but the baddies still give up?

well actually there is a reason for this.
you see their moms told them no matter what their day holds they are to be back home for dinner at seven ........or else.
And if you ever met their moms and you were a helicopter or a machine gun you would go out of your way not to harm them or anyone else so that they would be arrested and er um...be late for dinnner.

Why when I'm tired I see things going by
Never occured to my mind that life is still going on?
Why when I'm happy I'm so joyfull that I forget
Life is short and death is knocking on the door?
How things seem difficult without you here
How things seem easy with you roaming near
Stay with me and never leave me alone
Coz I'm afraid of discovering the reality behind
What we are and that is the secret of life
So misterious that makes us in an undless chain
To give meaning to our existance by being what we aren't
Makes the illusion we are living so dear and can't say goodby
For death is knocking on the door
Bringing me the answer that human've sought of yore

Once I've been brought to life and I still don't know why. But I love my life and also I don't know why. I want to live as long as I could, happy, and with the people I love. Then I thought of immortality. If I was immortal, would I have the same feeling about my life and even myself?
I looked through the window and saw a bird singing happily. Unfortunately, it was killed by a cat. But that bird was really happy before meating its end. And I turned my face towards the screan and read "Random Thought of the Day." That was my random thought of this day: that life is short and we are mortals, which makes it so pleasant to be lived. The unknown once known loses its fascination that it creats over people, and that why we seek change. That sometimes we change our clothes just to look different, but in reality to experience the effect that it would produce over ourselves. To savour each moment of our existance as though it is the last, makes of our mortality a "réson d'être".

Getting to know ourselves through others is one thing,

Sweet Adil - Loved your Dream.

She had Such a beautifull mind,
pity that your Dear princess did not have a happy ending.


True Love never goes unpunished.
This world is so cynical and far too 'conditioned'.
We have been raised to suspect everything,
trust no one and above all, you must----- "protect your a$$ ".

How could love ever overcome deception and trickery?

Honesty is important.

A simple - " Hello, my Name is Anton" - Ahhhhh...so simple, But not done. No.-Never

"Protect your a$$"
perpetuate the Lie,
not a shred of truth, for fear of it being used against you,
such mistrust, on and on it plays..............

---- whatever it takes to feed your greed, whatever it takes to feed your 'need'.

Falshood and reality are but one in that poem.

Falsehood and reality have been one in many things.

Never trust those who would use such tools to control others.
Like it or not, people do exist who would stoop very very low
and are quite comfortable playing the role of God.
Most of the time, they have an outwardly overinflated ego
- pure show it all is, as they, deep inside feel that the only way
to have friends is to control them. Sad Really.
Best to stay away from that sort,
you never know what they'll try to do to your mind.
- Whatever amuses them I supose.
The more complex the mind the greater the need for play, and play he did.

WE are all perfectionist in our own ways. The ones who try and make perfection, those who crave it but know they are doomed to fail and so live in absaloute imperfection, those who try and own a piece of it and those who see it even in the cracks of a broken mirror. Is it what causes people to seek higher perfection, what ultimet.ly drives them to disulliosion.

Born in a country so remote where winters friz
Beauty never saw one like her that she is jalous
Of my beautiful princess that her name makes her famous
Her fame spraid everywhere and princes came courting
My lady and her hand from her father asking
All she refused and to her secred lover she remained
Faithful and in her heart buried her love and never complained
A mistery now it still is and all wondered
Who might be the person that Liz Loved
This is a mistery for no one knows
But Liz who through time her memory flows

Once upon a time there was a girl named Liz
Born in a country so remote where winters friz
Beauty never saw one like her that she is jalous
Of my beautiful princess that her name makes her famous
Her fame spraid everywhere and princes came courting
My lady and her hand from her father asking
All she refused and to her secred lover she remained
Faithful and in her heart buried her love and never complained
A mistery now it still is and all wondered
Who might be the person that Liz Loved
This is a mistery for no one knows
But Liz who through time her memory flows
Thanks Adil, this is a beautiful surprise and a wonderful way to begin my day. I feel more strength to face it now...
Take care dear Adil and I pray for your long day to be a wonderful one.

If a shark bit me I don't think I'd enjoy it.

Never fear...just watch this educational video to see what you should do if you are attacked by a shark! Shark defence video (http://www.bestofgooglevideo.com/video.php?video=51)

I just remembered a thing that happened yesterday. I was on my way to work, and was about to be late getting there on foot, so I prayed I would get to work on time with a few minutes to spare for putting my lunch up in the staff room before beginning work.

I walked another block, then suddenly thought I heard a voice calling my brother's name. I didn't look up, thinking it could also have sounded like a girl's name being called. Then a woman behind me called for my attention, saying that she thought someone was calling me. I looked over into the street to my right hand side, and there was a woman in a car asking if I needed a ride. I wasn't sure who she was - she lowered the sunglasses from her eyes, and I was now certain I didn't know who she was!

I went over to her car, and thought that as I entered, I might recall her from somewhere (she was an older woman). Then, after determining that she wasn't an aunt she half resembled, I thought she might have been a woman from my brother's work place. It turned out I was right, and that she had thought I was my brother.

She got me to work with a couple of minutes to spare. This was the only time in a couple years I had needed a last minute ride to get to work on time - what are the odds of someone just then mistaking a stranger for his brother and offering him a much-needed ride?

When I die, bury ne deep
Four feet down, fast asleep,

Place my Maths book on my head
Tell my teacher that I am dead,

Place my Physics book on my chest
Tell my teacher I am at rest,

Place my Chemistry book in my hand
Tell my teacher that I can't understand,

Place my English book on my left
Tell my teacher that I tried my best,

Tell my teachers not to cry
These are those who made me die

Don't know much about geography
Don't know much trigonometry
Don't know much about algebra
Don't know what a slide rule is for.

But I do know that one and one is two,
And if this one could be with you,
What a wonderful world this would be.

Now i don't claim to be an "A" student,
But I'm trying to be.
For maybe by being an "A" student baby
I can win your love for me.

Last night was not as usual
Funny great and rather sensual
I met a girly so funny
Who my brain shared with me
I thought it to be mad
To think so but I'm glad
That she was with me
Telling me now and then a story
A story of a princess from Gall
Playing with pictures in a hall
Pictures of the past and future
That makes the present so sensual
I thought her to be a dream
But was real more than the ice cream
I asked of her mane and came the replay
I'm Lis the butterfly

this has worried me for awhile Larkin was a librarian and yet by the time he retired he wrote this on reading....


A study on reading habits

When getting my nose in a book
Cured most things short of school,
It was worth ruining my eyes
To know I could still keep cool,
And deal out the old right hook
To dirty dogs twice my size.

Later, with inch-thick specs,
Evil was just my lark:
Me and my coat and fangs
Had ripping times in the dark.
The women I clubbed with sex!
I broke them up like meringues.

Don't read much now: the dude
Who lets the girl down before
The hero arrives, the chap
Who's yellow and keeps the store
Seem far too familiar. Get stewed:
Books are a load of crap.

Epecially the last line what if I turn out like that? I love my books what would Ido if I started hating them ?! :eek2:

The question underneath is: how do I make someone, who does not share my idea of reason, understand my reason? Reason in that sense is overated. One should prefer spending his/her life trying to understand other's reasons than trying to make others understand his/hers.
