Being a curious human being, one might seem to want or experience another state of consciousness. We all know that this can be done by children through spinning, sliding, and swinging, all as form of play. It is in a person’s instinct to have the urge to alter one’s consciousness, much like quenching one’s thirst, hunger, and sexual desires. Today, so many people experiment with mind-altering substances or psychoactive medications, which are chemical substances that basically acts on a person’s central nervous system and alters the brains’ functions. The use of these drugs cause short-term changes in mood, perception, behavior, and consciousness.

I have always loved bright colors and movement, like dancing its healing, relaxing fulfilling and challenging as well. The bottom line is the feeling and message that I want to convey through the medium. When I paint, every attempt is to capture the feel of warmth, passion, joy and bliss in none objective or figurative composition. I enjoy experimentation of different media and subjects.

My subject varies based on my emotion and statement but my love for colors is constant. In spite of this, viewers see different forms or figures in my abstract expressions. The good thing about these expressions is the freedom of the viewers to see and appreciate the forms in their mind’s eyes, like face painting in the eye of the viewer. Its also important to mention that “Uli” which is my traditional art style has played a major role in my age long career. The symbols and forms of this art style are reflected in my cubism, abstract images, abstract relief sculpture, seascape, drawing, pastels and watercolor painting.

People see different forms or images in abstract art, the depth of what you actually see when you look at the paintings is partly based on

Confronting the possibility of a potentially devastating human bird flu pandemic, the United Nations system from Secretary-General Kofi Annan to the Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) to the UN health and agricultural agencies today laid out a blueprint for immediate preventive and mitigating action.

We may not know about the future course of H5N1, we do know this: once human-to-human transmission has been established, we would have only a matter of weeks to lock down the spread before it spins out of control. That is why the international community must take action now.” Mr. Annan told the Time Global Health Summit, a three-day event in New York held to discuss key health issues.

In light of these concerns, and likely rationing of available flu vaccines, it is advisable that people also look at other areas which complement good health. In the United States, the average American diet is high in sodium, fat, sugar, and preservatives and low in nutrition. These are typically not the ingredients associated with the support of a healthy immune system. It is the beneficial components of food which feed the cells of the body and support the normal function which allows each cell the potential

* What is the difference between baseball and softball?

Baseball is team sport where a player on one team attempts to throw a hard, fist- sized ball past a player on the other team, who attempts to hit the baseball with smooth, tapered, cylindrical stick called bat.

A team scores only when batting, by advancing past a series of four markers called bases arranged at the corners.

Softball is a variant of baseball played with a larger ball on a smaller field. Despite its name, the ball used is not necessarily soft, but it is larger than a baseball and it may have a softer outer layer. The rules of this game vary somewhat from those of baseball.

Generally, the core of the ball is made of rubber, cork or a mixture of the two and sometimes, layered. Its constriction varies. Around these are various linear materials that include twin and yarn. Sometimes wool is also used.

We all know sports are all about physical fitness and physical endurance. What we also know for fact is sport people do not attach much important on another important aspect – MIND MANAGEMENT.

Athletes may possess 100% physical fitness but if he/she is not mentally fit, the physical fitness is as good as not having it at all. So what is Mental Fitness?

Physical training teaches the body the physical attributes and tunes the body to use the skills of the sport, while mental training teaches the nuances of focus and mind control and the ways to enhance the performance.

It is important to realize the enormous power of thought and its effect on performance.

There are so many different types of diets out there including calorie controlled diets, carbohydrate controlled diets and I have also heard of one called the cabbage soup diet. There are clubs that you can go along to and get group therapy, weekly weigh-ins and they have whole support networks.

Most womens magazines seem to concentrate almost fixatedly on this particular issue. We are certainly a nation becoming obsessed with the way we look and how much we weigh. This is not such a bad thing, however when we look at government reports, the situation is only seeming to get worse. The question that we need to ask is that, is the dieting industry really as effective as it says it is.

The other problem is that people are so confused with the diets out there. A lot of these diets have become controversial. There have been loads of articles in the newspapers alleging negative side-effects, with even scientists condemning there use. Its no wonder that most people get confused about the subject and dont even know where to start.

Slimming is one of those areas that most of us tend to struggle in and with all the new

Respirators are devices created to protect its wearer from the harmful effects of impure air. It depending on its make can protect against particles and impurities such as dust, fumes, smoke, and others. These devices are essential in industries such as mining, welding, medicine, and science.

Respirators can either be filtration devices or oxygen supplied devices. Each has its own niche in any industry. Infiltration devices work by filtering out particles from the air in the environment. Self-supplied devices have their own air supply and provide safe air to its wearer.

Without respirators, man is in danger of inhaling potentially hazardous particles. Miners without respirators would succumb to the poisonous air in mine shafts. Welders could inhale fumes from welded metal that could cause cancer and respiratory diseases. Health workers need respirators to protect themselves from airborne contaminants such as germs and droplets. The failure to wear such puts a medical institution in greater risk of spreading a disease.

The use of respirators can be traced back to the days of Leonardo da Vinci. He suggested the use of finely woven, porous cloth that was dipped in water to protect sailors from a toxic weapon he had devised. Aside

As a lifestyle columnist, I’m always looking for chic lifestyle and fashion statements.

Nothing makes more of a statement than having a sophisticated “idea resource” at my fingertips for days at the beach, nights on the town and dinner parties at home.

One of my favorites is the Spiegel catalog, which offers inspiration on entertaining, decorating and even a fabulous cocktail dress.

At your next get-together, unleash your inner fashionista. When the party heats up, bear your shoulders with a silk halter dress in vivid green. And bejewel yourself with a green and gold jeweled brocade bag that won’t set your budget back, but will spring your inner princess forward.

Accessories are the DNA of lasting glamour, so who wants to be seen in something a million other women already own? Opt instead for a brass cameo bracelet by Michael Negrin, who creates vintage-inspired jewels made to help you feel like a Victorian queen. Or add a dazzling yet delicate multistrand pearl necklace to your gem collection. Wear it the way I do-with a cocktail dress-and you’ll be the envy of all the “gem setters” at the party.

I’m forever collecting shoes. Shoes for meetings, shoes for

People tell me over and over how impossible it seems to change their unwanted attitudes and that they have no idea why this is. If youre reading this book, clearly you want to make changes in your life. If you want these changes to last, youll need to understand the how and why of guilt and resentment. How things you experienced in dealing with your parents and siblings created self-defeating patterns in you. Why these very same self-defeating patterns keep you from functioning as well as you can, or from being the person youd like to be. All the willpower you have and the new years resolutions you make will not help you function better or assist you in becoming the person you truly do want to be. Why? Because long after youve left your family, your childhood patterns continue to show up and impose themselves in your adult life.
