You are willing to extend yourself for those you love, even when it means you must get along with less. You have strong sentimental ties with your family so that you could have some difficulty relating to people other than your family in a person-to-person relationship. Your loyalty to people you love is admirable, but it can interfere with forming meaningful outside contacts. You are possessive with the objects of your affections to they may feel unable to do anything without first asking your permission or at least discussing it with you. You don’t want to be excluded from any situation your lover may be involved with and you can wear out your welcome unless you change your attitude.
Basically shy, yet susceptible to kindness and flattery, you are uncomfortable with persons who are overly aggressive. You are essentially a dreamer who dwells on romantic imaginings or reveries to satisfy your emotional longings. You are therefore very vulnerable to partners or associates with charming personalities and refinement.
You are unrealistic in facing the harsh realities of life and may postpone taking a partner you are waiting for the nearly perfect individual to come into your life. You are inclined to go more than halfway in making concessions if it will produce greater harmony. Be careful you don’t allow others to abuse your generosity by making excessive demands on you. Your protective instincts are probably stronger than most and you would defend the one you love in spite of the demands being made.
Your career interest might include such professions as law, politics, business management and arbitration. You should also find much fulfillment working with people in social activities as are found in clubs, societies, encounter therapy and counseling. Your mature and polished common sense prevails when there are disagreements in which you are involved.
You are gifted in occupations requiring some business sense, and your ability in management is considerable. You are a no-nonsense person and appreciate the efforts of those who are organized for action. Take care you aren’t obstinate in your opinions and learn to let others make their own decisions. They may learn more when they realize why they failed.
Not content to stand still for very long, you eagerly assert yourself in your affairs. You are usually well informed on every facet of the enterprises you have so that you are able to successfully manage them. You enjoy competition and the risks associated with challenging situations. You never believe you will not succeed, and this raises the probability of success.
Your greatest lesson will come from your relationships and how well you can handle them. Compromise is essential to bring out the very best in you and those you deal with. It is urgent that you give others the same respect you demand from them.

Shortly after the language bill was passed unanimously in the Congress to become a law that would provide a better understanding of the business transactions for inexperienced non-English local speakers, the President technically vetoed it because she found the translations were not only too embarrassing and scary but also very vulgar and obscene.
Below are the few samples of the accounting terms, with what the locals would likely take as the appropriate double-entente in parenthesis:

Today before you think of saying an unkind word
Think of someone who can't speak
Before you complain about the taste of your food
Think of someone who has nothing to eat
Before you complain about your husband or wife
Think of someone who's crying out to God for a companion
Today before you complain about life
Think of someone who went too early to heaven
Before you complain about your children
Think of someone who desires children but they're barren
Before you argue about your dirty house; someone didn't clean or sweep
Think of the people who are living in the streets
Before whining about the distance you drive
Think of someone who walks the same distance with their feet
And when you are tired and complain about your job
Think of the unemployed, the disabled and those who wished they had your job
But before you think of pointing the finger or condemning another
Remember that not one of us are without sin and we all answer to one maker
And when depressing thoughts seem to get you down
Put a smile on your face and thank God you're alive and still around
Life is a gift
Live it...
Enjoy it...
Celebrate it...
And fulfill it.
I'm sure many of you watched the recent taping of the Oprah Winfrey Show where her guest was Tommy Hilfiger. On the show, she asked him if the statements about race he was accused of saying were true. Statements like"..."If I'd known African-Americans, Hispanics, Jewish and Asians would buy my clothes, I WOULD NOT have made them so nice. I wish these people would *NOT* buy my clothes, as they are made for upper class white people."
His answer to Oprah was a simple "YES". Where after she immediately asked him to leave her show.
My suggestion? Don't buy your next shirt or perfume from Tommy Hilfiger. Let's give him what he asked for. Let's not buy his clothes, let's put Him in a financial state where he himself will not be able to afford the ridiculous prices he puts on his clothes. BOYCOTT. PLEASE SEND THIS MESSAGE TO ANYONE YOU KNOW. Then send it to the whole community that's not white people and see the result. We have to see the result of unity.
Let's find out if Non-whites really play such a small part in the world. Stop buying any range of their product, perfume, cosmetics, clothes, bags, etc.,
2) Scene took place on a British Airways flight between
A White woman, about 50 years old, was seated next to a black man. Obviously disturbed by this, she called the air Hostess. "Madam, what is the matter," the hostess asked. "You obviously do not see it then?" she responded. "You placed me next to a black man. I do not agree to sit next to someone from such a repugnant group. Give me an alternative seat."
"Be calm please," the hostess replied. "Almost all the places on this Flight is taken. I will go to see if another place is available." The Hostess went away and then came back a few minutes later. "Madam, Just as I thought, there are no other available seats in the economy class. I spoke to the captain and he informed me that there is a seat in the business class. All the same, we still have one place in the first class." Before the woman could say anything, the hostess continued: "It is not Usual for our company to permit someone from the economy class to sit in the first class. However, given the circumstances, the captain feels that it would be scandalous to make someone sit next to someone so disgusting." She turned to the black guy, and said, "Therefore, Sir, if you would like to, please collect your hand luggage, a seat awaits you in first class." At that moment, the other passengers who were shocked by what they had Just witnessed stood up and applauded.
Both the above are true stories. If You are against racism, please copy and send this message to all your friends.

Vous êtes brillant et actif ; mais vous avez besoin d’obscurité et de passivité. C’est cet aspect moins spectaculaire de votre nature que vous devez cultiver. Vous attirez le respect et l’attention de vos associes, mais vous êtes complètement dépendant des principes et des aspirations de votre moi profond. Votre vraie nature, douce et dépendante, ne doit pas être masquée par votre brillante intelligence.
Vous êtes force d’accepter les objectifs égoïstes et souvent violents des autres. Ne faites que ce qui est nécessaire pour réaliser les projets de vos supérieurs. Ne cherchez pas à détruire simplement parce que vous en avez le droit. Ceux qui vous utilisent sont les seuls responsables de la situation.
Ne soyez pas surpris si vous vous éloignez des buts et des idéaux que vous étiez fixes. Mais vous savez que la possession matérielle et le rang social ne sont qu’illusions. Vous avez obtenu ce que vous désiriez, mais vous ne vous êtes pas encore réalise totalement. Votre bonheur n’est pas parfait. Mais il est absurde d’éprouver de la tristesse alors que tous vos efforts ont été couronnes de succès. Ni le bonheur, ni le malheur ne doivent vous atteindre ; vivez pleinement le moment pressent, soyez radieux comme le soleil a son zénith.
Le avversita di questo momento della vita hanno portato isolamento, dolore, sfiducia. Una delusione dopo l’altra alle quali ci si e adattati. Non si vede uno spiraglio di luce, una speranza per rialzari. E necessario avere coraggio e cercare dentro se stessi la volonta di superare gli attuali, pericolosissimi ostacoli. Non e favorevole nelle questioni sentimentali: indica rotture o difficolta finanziarie.
Non e bene cercare di risolvere i problemi con la fretta. L’importante e riuscire a non farsi piegare dalla sofferenza.
Non bisogna pensare di compiere grose azioni. La prima tappa e quella di togliersi di dosso una situazione negativa. Quando sara riconquistata la liberta mentale, ogni cosa diventera piu facile
Un periodo ricco di speranza: tutto e gioia e successo. L’avvenire non e fonte di preoccupazione. Bisogna riflettere prima che sia troppo tardi e prevedere questo rischio di cambiamento di rotta; se si riesce a prevenire gli avvenimenti, si potra essere padroni della situazione.
ARIES. This will be a favorable period when you will feel victorious to see a major hope fulfilled with good news on something of a rather personal nature. Try to be tactful and diplomatic when dealing with people who appear to oppose your views and opinions.
TAURUS. Capitalize your talents to the full and develop them by embarking on a training scheme of some kind. Try to remain level-headed whatever transpires. You could likely lose friends if you allow matters to go to your head and possibly turn them off by your change in attitude.
GEMINI. This period is favorable for advancement, material gain and assistance. Your career could prosper especially if someone influential chooses to put in a good word for you. Your financial affairs could improve, but there could likely be a certain element of risk that you are better off not do anything foolish no matter how well things seem to be going for you.
CANCER. Keep a low profile and do nothing radical during this period. If however you decide to ignore this warning, you should be prepared for disappointment, failure, interference and screwed up plans.
LEO. Friendship would be in a particularly pleasant and harmonious phase. It should be possible to find amicable solutions to old quarrels and arguments which can now be viewed from a different angle.
VIRGO. Love is once again of prime concern with a holiday feeling and a foreign travel likely possible. This would certainly be a happy period to spend with family, friends and loved ones.
LIBRA. Avoid being defiant and learn to bow to the inevitable as this is a time to learn how to be humble. Once you have regained self-control you will see there are other avenues open for you to explore.
SCORPIO. You should be alert and ready to take action at the slightest hint of trouble so that any problems can be dealt with before they have time to get out of hand. Important messages can be expected which may be of a confidential nature.
SAGITTARIUS. Good fortune can manifest itself in various ways which may come about as the justly deserved reward for hard work, in the guise of a gift or out of the blue as the result of some happy accident of fate. You won’t run short of money to be able to enjoy this temporary period of affluence.
CAPRICORN. You’ll possibly make considerable progress but at a price as you will have to overcome many annoying worries and problems before you can reach your goal. Try to make your road a little easier by using the wisdom gained from past experience as a guide.
AQUARIUS. Love is very much your concern during this period. Personal gain could be possible through a liaison with a member of the opposite sex, not necessarily be the one with whom you are conducting a serious relationship.
PISCES. This week is highly favorable for business opportunities and travel. Stimulating developments would take place in your career which could prove to be a great success. There will be a new romantic attachment for you!

I was so shocked and scandalized to learn officially that I would never get back a single cent from the taxes I've already paid for from all the previous annual income tax declarations that I filed with the hope of spending a golden retirement in my hometown someday. Instead, what I only got was a resounding and direct but cold reply that "it's an irony of life." Hearing such a rather insensitive and brutal remark from a senior consular officer, I seemed to have been struck by lightning that I felt utterly cheated and betrayed. Henceforth, I decided to keep my distance as much as possible and vowed to myself that I’d break away completely from any possible dealings with the Embassy from the day when I would finally obtain my naturalization. When I reflect on the miserable pension money which could hardly cover up decently the daily subsistence that my mother received for having sacrificed almost all her entire life working as a public elementary teacher, I could consider myself more fortunate and better off to be able to live comfortably on what I'm now getting as a pre-retiree from the local government. There was a particular incident that a stranded fellow national shared with me when he was refused entry to England and had to go to the Embassy to seek for advice and moral support but only to be told off with indifference by the consul general to just pack up and go home directly, being the standard official procedure to avoid any possible diplomatic incident with the local authorities.
When I flew to Europe in the fall of 1967 as a scholar, I wasn't only too happy to have finally fulfilled my most-cherished dream of going abroad but also too pleased and honored to come over at the expense of the French Government. Many a time, I had to pinch myself in order to prove that I wasn't dreaming awake. If it could have been a fairytale, I thought I could be Alice who got lost her sense of direction in a wonderland and practically went out of her mind visiting and admiring all the places that I read in the book. Unfortunately, I later discovered during my frequent trips that being an ordinary passport holder could prove to be more of a liability and a burden than an asset to one’s personal pride when traveling around Europe from the series of not-so-pleasant incidents and misadventures that I experienced, such as the untoward treatment in the course of a seemingly third-degree interrogation performed by the consular staff of foreign embassies in obtaining entry or transit visas which could prove to be very discouraging and humiliating or the unorthodox practice of random search and scrutiny by some unscrupulously rude customs and border control agents on ones body and belongings to be somewhat abjectly brutal if not traumatic that could eventually lead a highly sensitive person to the brink of a serious nervous breakdown or worse yet to disappear completely from the face of the earth for having been practically defiled and dishonored. Being in such a predicament of vulnerability and desperation, how I'd wished so badly that I would have had a passport from a powerful and rich country so that I could make a rebuttal and defend my honor as an decent and honest human being rather than always play the role of the usual docile victim or an underdog who would just remain to be insulted and oppressed worse than a presumed criminal and be subjected to certain forms of prejudice and discrimination. When I finally realized that I already have had more than my dose of all kinds of harassment and misadventure because I am from a Third World country, I decided to change immediately my nationality at all cost so that I could redeem and give myself a certain sense of self-esteem and pride, thus to be able to regain my self-respect and confidence in the long run. I am so glad my children were automatically entitled to my new citizenship that they were spared from going through what I had experienced. Somehow, I firmly believe that this could have had a substantial influence as an important factor which contributed much to their personal development in a more constructive and positive way while they were growing up.
Finally, it's too pathetic and sad to learn about the growing notoriety from the not-so-flattering image and reputation acquired by Filipinos abroad as economic refugees resulting from their continued massive exodus to look for work since the latter half of the 70's. In Italy, they constitute the largest foreign population where the word "Filipino" has been ostensibly incorporated in the local vocabulary and thereby widely used in the spoken language simply to refer to anybody in general who "is or works as a domestic," regardless of race, creed or country of origin. ¶ 8:04 AM 1 Comments
Whether you are ready or not, someday your life will come to an end.
There will be no more sunrises, no minutes, hours, or days.
All the things you collected, whether treasured or forgotten, will pass to someone else.
Your wealth, fame and temporal power will shrivel to irrelevance.
It will not matter what you owned or what you were owed.
Your grudges, resentments, frustrations and jealousies will finally disappear.
So, too, your hopes, ambitions, plans and to-do lists will expire.
The wins and losses that once seemed so important will fade away.
It won’t matter where you came from, or on what side of the tracks you lived at the end.
It won’t matter whether you were beautiful or brilliant, even your gender and skin color will be irrelevant.
So what will matter? How will the value of your days be measured?
What will matter is not what you bought, but what you built; not what you got, but what you gave.
What will matter is not your success, but your significance.
What will matter is not what you learned, but what you taught.
What will matter is every act of integrity, compassion, courage or sacrifice that enriched, empowered, or encouraged others to emulate your example.
What will matter is not your competence, but your character.
What will matter is not how many people you knew, but how many will feel a lasting loss when you are gone.
What will matter is not your memories, but the memories that live in those who love you.
What will matter is how long you will be remembered by whom and for what.
Living a life that matters doesn’t happen by accident.
It’s not a matter of circumstances, but of choice.
Choose to live a life that matters.
Vous entrez dans une période favorable à la réalisation de grands projets ou d’importants changements dans votre vie. Dans une situation aussi avantageuse, vous devez corriger vos défauts et vous en débarrasser progressivement. En amour, comme en toute chose, la générosité n’est souvent qu’une apparence. Si vous manifestez de la rancœur, c’est que vous êtes déçu ; si vous êtes déçu, cela indique que vous escomptez quelque chose ; si vous escomptez quelque chose, votre prétendue générosité n’est rien d’autre qu’un égoïsme déguise. Votre voie est celle du sacrifice personnel. De toute façon, votre réalisation spirituelle dépend de votre capacité à mettre votre force au service des autres.
Vos rapports avec les autres sont humains, généreux et désintéresses. Vous établissez facilement le contact avec les gens, même avec ceux qui se montrent hostiles envers vous. Votre amour des autres ne s’arrête pas aux différences culturelles. Il ne s’agit pas d’une simple similarité de vues et d’opinions. L’affection profonde que vous éprouvez pour les autres est naturelle. Vous ne pouvez la controler ou la diriger. Il se peut même que vous n’en soyez pas conscient. Selon les valeurs de notre société, vous n’êtes pas quelqu’un d’extraordinaire. Mais tous vos efforts seront couronnes de succès. Le temps est venu d’entreprendre de grands changements dans votre vie.
Non bisogna lasciarsi abbattere da avvenimenti sfavorevoli, ma quello che conta in questo periodo difficile e mantenersi prudenti e riservati e restare nell’ombra per non attirarsi critiche e inimicizie. Tuttavia questo oscuramento deve essere solo esteriore; all’interno de se conviene restare luminosi, allo scopo di continuare a lavorare nell’ombra e far trionfare la propria volonta quando le difficolta saranno appianate.
Ci si sente soli anche in mezzo alla folla, non ci si fida piu di niente e nessuno. Si consigliano prudenza e fiducia in se stessi. Non e bene isolarsi ma nemmeno farsi ingannare da persone disoneste che si approfittano della nostra fragilita.
E possibile conoscere i retroscena che ci erano ancora sconosciuti. Si consigia di mettersi al riparo prima che la situzione precipiti. Non si puo far altro che resistere e attendere di toccare il fondo poiche la fine naturale di chi e disonesto e quella di autodistruggersi.
ARIES. Begin searching for something new and altogether more fulfilling at all levels. This quest for new experience would likely be a beneficial move which should evoke many rewards in the future.
TAURUS. Try to slow down your pace and proceed with caution and circumspection. Greater care than usual should be taken to ensure good health if you wish to come through this period unscathed.
GEMINI. Grasp every chance that comes your way with both hands and to make it work for you. You should settle old scores and reconcile yourself to circumstances as they actually are. You will need to discipline yourself in order to regain self-control and become free of the constant swings of mood.
CANCER. Now is a good time to take a break from what you are doing, such as a short holiday or a few days off to relax and let yourself unwind a little. This could be beneficial on your health and physical well-being in the long run. Avoid trying to live your life on a head-on collision course with everyone else.
LEO. You are under an extremely favorable and fortunate period that could prove to be enjoyable and rewarding when happiness and success are well aspected. You’re in for new beginnings in both your private and professional life. Any plans made for the future are also almost certain to succeed.
VIRGO. You would possibly gain more personal freedom and escape from the restrictions previously imposed upon your movements. However, you could just as easily become tied down by personal preoccupations and feel trapped or bound by obligations. If you’re making long-term plans try to allow for the unforeseen by adding a few extra days or figures to your calculations.
LIBRA. Your dreams could come true and your dearest wishes would possibly become realities. This is a period of love and romance which might even develop into a more lasting relationship and could prove to be one of the happiest moments of your life. So, enjoy it while you may!
SCORPIO. This period promises new avenues to explore if you are willing to try something unknown and untested. However, you would need to be extremely flexible and should be prepared to change existing plans at the last moment. Take a time off and relax by exploring the natural beauty of your region and the neighboring surroundings.
SAGITTARIUS. Before making any decision, try to allow yourself sufficient time to see matters in perspective – as they really are and not just how they seem to be at a quick glance. Anything that has been going unexpectedly out of control could start to improve. As there is usually a price to be paid for most things in life, you may have to make a few voluntary sacrifices. C’est la vie!
CAPRICORN. Try to become one of a team and cooperate more with those around you to work together towards a common goal. Learn to be more tactful and to think before you speak as this could save a great deal of unpleasantness and embarrassment. You must never tell anyone a secret no matter how sympathetic or trustworthy their outward appearance may be.
PISCES. You’re likely to be promised financial rewards for a completed task. However, you should try to remain calm and patient when annoying set-backs occur. Don’t be too proud to accept any help that may be offered no matter how much you suspect the motives behind such a proposal – many hands make lighter work!

You are determined, forceful, self-indulgent and resistant to change when someone else tries to force it on you. Wanting all the comforts of life, you are willing to apply yourself to get them and you don’t allow anyone to stand in your way. You are basically quite insecure and much preoccupied with using material acquisition to compensate for this emotional need. You tend to be a taker, not a giver, and for this reason it is essential that you learn to know when giving is as appropriate as receiving.
The one thing you can give that will not appreciably reduce your capital or assets, is your time and energy. You are enormously resourceful in capitalizing on your creative talents, and instinctively know how to translate your ideas into tangible assets. You are reasonably demanding in having your physical appetites satisfied, and you are really offended when your attentions and desires are rejected. You are slow to anger, but devastating when you are pushed beyond your limit.
You strive for a job with a future in it, one where you can gain tenure if possible, which it is if you use your creative potential imaginatively. You need to be more adaptable and utilize your talents more aggressively. Your main focus in life is in getting the kind of security that will give you the freedom to do all the things you postponed. It is to your credit that you know how to establish priorities and to apply yourself to your goals with great determination. The fact is, you want security, because you don’t want to depend on others for anything.
You have strong feelings that you constantly express. You love life and enjoy close relationships with people. You don’t wait for others to make gestures of friendship, but eagerly seek to make them feel at ease in your company. You want so much to be liked and loved that you dramatize your feelings toward others so they will respond to you in a similar fashion. In fact, you function best when you know others care for you. You have a hard time letting go of the past and yet your growth and development will be delayed unless you do. As an investment in your future, there are sacrifices you must make in the temporary pleasures you might indulge in.
You can easily detach yourself from people who are indifferent or uncaring. You are conservative toward people until they demonstrate their worth to you. Once this is done, you will project your feelings with determination, in anticipation of establishing a permanent relationship. You are clearly unimpressed by pomp and ostentatious display. As a matter of fact, you can be turned off by people who are turned on by that which is dramatic and showy. You are more concerned with honesty in your social encounters and sincerity in your personal relationships. You are especially appalled by the incredible lack of ethics among high government leaders.
You are thoughtful in your decisions because you don’t want to waste your time and making poor ones. You enjoy the benefits you gain from your efforts because you put a lot of thought and organization into your plans before you take any action. You can be a bit tiring, though, when the subject of your conversations almost invariably ends on the topic of money.
You are creatively inspired to bring great pleasure and enjoyment in your relationships. Give others the opportunity to get close enough to you to show you how much they can enrich your life similarly. You’ll never know until you try.
You have an ardent love nature and are constantly seeking to have it satisfied. Your eagerness and drive enable you to sustain the pursuit of the one you love, and you don’t endure any rejection without flying off the handle. You will go to extreme lengths to secure the affection of those you care for, and you are persistent until you succeed. Sometimes, though, your only motivation may be to satisfy your physical lust, which is considerable.
You are engaged in striving for nothing less than the best or the most. You have little patience with anyone who lacks drive and ambition. You need to be more thoughtful in voicing your opinions, though. Your defiance of restraint does not give you the privilege or freedom to ram your ideas down everybody’s throat. You may be a prankster, but others may not appreciate it and take you seriously.

Three women: a German, a Japanese and a hillbilly were sitting naked in a sauna. Suddenly, there was a beeping sound.
The German woman pressed her forearm and the beep stopped. The others looked at her questioningly. “That was my pager,” she said. “I have a microchip under the skin of my arm.”
A few minutes later, a phone rang. The Japanese woman lifted her palm to her ear. When she finished, she explained. “That was my mobile phone. I have a microchip in my hand.”
The hillbilly woman felt very low tech. Not to be outdone, she decided she must do something just as impressive. She stepped out of the sauna and went to the bathroom. She returned with a piece of toilet paper hanging from her behind. The others raised their eyebrows and stared at her
The hillbilly woman finally said, “Well, will you look at that! I’m getting a fax.”

Dear Pablo, Sara & Sophie,
The days have come down in the west much as the setting sun and now I find myself leaving for home. Twilight has come on my trip and I think back on all the good times that I have had and reminisce the fond memories of days well spent. From welcoming me into your home back in January to the celebration on my birthday in March on through the rest of my stay.
It was a wondrous gesture to give without knowing the nature of the guest you accommodate. Only an individual pure of heart and soul that is endowed with compassion is able to quarter a stranger in their house. I can not nor can my family ever truly recompense you and your family for allowing me to stay these past four months within your residence. I hope that in part I was able to display a portion of the kindness bestowed upon myself by you and your family.
From my family unto yours numerous thanks are imparted for the hospitality and generous nature demonstrated. God bless your house as you have blessed me. I will keep in contact with you but for now I am going, I bid you all a fond farewell.
Goodbye.

Vous exercez une forte influence sur les autres, un contrôle direct sur certains éléments de leur vie. Vous occupez un rang social élevé, vous assumez d’importantes responsabilités, vous êtes entoure d’amis influents et – si vous êtes corrumpu – vous profitez de votre pouvoir. Vous avez légitiment atteint cette position, grâce a votre travail et a votre honnêteté. Ainsi pouvez-vous mener une vie extrêmement confortable. Mais vous devez accepter les nouvelles responsabilités qui surgissent quotidiennement dans le monde des hommes et des affaires, en affirmant résolument vos principes. Vous devez réaliser vos projets les plus importants, changer votre sphère d’activité en réagissant toujours naturellement et directement aux transformations sociales. Ainsi réussirez-vous dans les entreprises les plus difficiles.
Vous êtes oppose a une force supérieure a la votre. Soumettez-vous. Soyez prêt a agir des que l’équilibre des forces sera en votre faveur.
N’entreprenez aucune action importante. Vous vous heurteriez a l’incomprehension des autres. Mais ne choisissez pas non plus la voie de la stagnation.
Immaturita. Un comportamento privo di fermezza porta sfortunata. Cercare il consiglio di un esperto, di una persona matura, di un maestro, ed essere perseveranti., questa e la chiave pe ovviare agli errori commessa. Non fare troppe domande.
L’idea della giovinezza e della follia contraddistingue questo segno, ma presso un giovane la follia non e sempre cattiva: puo anzi portare al successo, perche l’inconcienza permette di superare certi ostacoli, mentre l’eccesso di prudenza spesso impedisce di avanzare. In questo genere di siuazione, il consiglio e di trovare un maestro ricco di esperienza e di aver coscienza dei propri limiti e della propria mancanza di esperienza. Tuttavia l’intervento del maestro deve restare a livello preventivo ed avere come scopo la limitazione degli eccessi della temerarieta.
Never, put your banana in the refrigerator!!!
This is interesting. After reading this, you'll never look at a banana in the same way again.
Bananas contain three natural sugars - sucrose, fructose and glucose combined with fiber.
A banana gives an instant, sustained and substantial boost of energy.
Research has proven that just two bananas provide enough energy for a strenuous 90-minute workout. No wonder the banana is the number one fruit with the world's leading athletes.
But energy isn't the only way a banana can help us keep fit. It can also help overcome or prevent a substantial number of illnesses and conditions, making it a must to add to our daily diet.
Depression: According to a recent survey undertaken by MIND amongst people suffering from depression, many felt much better after eating a banana. This is because bananas contain tryptphan, a type of protein that the body converts into serotonin, known to make you relax, improve your mood and generally make you feel happier.
PMS: Forget the pills - eat a banana. The vitamin B6 it contains regulates blood glucose levels, which can affect your mood.
Anemia: High in iron, bananas can stimulate the production of hemoglobin in the blood and so helps in cases of anemia.
Blood Pressure: This unique tropical fruit is extremely high in potassium yet low in salt, making it perfect to beat blood pressure. So much so, the US Food and Drug Administration has just allowed the banana industry to make official claims for the fruit's ability to reduce the risk of blood pressure and stroke.
Brain Power: 200 students at a Twickenham (Middlesex) school were helped through their exams this year by eating bananas at breakfast, break, and lunch in a bid to boost their brainpower. Research has shown that the potassium-packed fruit can assist learning by making pupils more alert.
Constipation: High in fiber, including bananas in the diet can help restore normal bowel action, helping to overcome the problem without resorting to laxatives.
Hangovers: One of the quickest ways of curing a hangover is to make a banana milkshake, sweetened with honey. The banana calms the stomach and, with the help of the honey, builds up depleted blood sugar levels, while the milk soothes and re-hydrates your system.
Heartburn: Bananas have a natural antacid effect in the body; so if you suffer from heartburn, try eating a banana for soothing relief.
Morning Sickness: Snacking on bananas between meals helps to keep blood sugar levels up and avoid morning sickness.
ARIES. This could be a very testing and challenging week for you from all points of view. Therefore, you would certainly need to have your wits about you if you are to emerge from it unbeaten and unscathed. Be prepared for quick decisions brought about by unexpected events.
TAURUS. You should expect the unexpected that would greatly affect the final outcome of your development this week with challenges to meet which will prove extremely beneficial in the end. Important decisions will also be taken as a new phase in your life is trying to get under way. Make sure that your choices are realistic as this is not the time to indulge in wishful thinking.
GEMINI. This could be a delicate time when you will have to make some important decisions. So, be prepared to stand up for yourself and to have the courage of your own convictions. Be more independent and learn to take responsibility for yourself. Avoid acting impulsively and make sure that you allow yourself sufficient time to realize the full implications of these decisions and the far-reaching consequences a rash decision could have.
CANCER. This is likely a very remunerative period and the time to reap the rewards, so rightly deserved, for past efforts. Any speculative ventures have a very fair chance of paying dividends. Your affairs are likely to take a turn for the better and this beneficial upswing is likely to be caused by events over which you have no personal control. A recurring problem could also be solved through a rather strange set of circumstances.
LEO. You could be in for expansion and the opportunity for personal advancement. Now is the time to think a little bigger than usual, to push yourself and your ideas, and to climb a few rungs higher up the ladder of success. You may need to work harder than normal but the rewards should prove adequate compensation for all the extra effort required.
VIRGO. This will prove to be a restless and unsettled period when it will be difficult to know what to do for the best. A fairly major change in your lifestyle is highly possible such as job, residence, partner, or all three that you would make voluntarily or forced upon you against your will. You may seek comfort and advice through spiritual involvement or in a series of love affairs and brief relationships.
LIBRA. This period indicates a domestic slant when anything and everything can and probably will happen that could cover such major issues as marriage, childbirth, move of home, purchase of a new car, or a major redecoration of the house. Your intuition could help you find the answer to a long-standing problem which has hitherto been giving you a pain in the neck!
SCORPIO. A totally unexpected major change in personal circumstance is bound to take place any moment. What’s more, this change is likely to be the only possible solution to a prevailing situation however surprising this may seem. Long-standing plans and proposals might also need to be altered, or even aborted which is not a bad thing because it will leave you free to take up other, more exciting, offers when they arise.
SAGITTARIUS. You should be too lucky to feel extremely happy and confident during this week. You may choose to marry, set up home, have a baby, start a family, change job or move to another location. Your three most important keywords are change, happiness and love, in any order.
CAPRICORN. You would be too lucky to be blessed with a period of good fortune, fulfillment and possible travel. Good opportunities for personal advancement should arise that will make the immediate future appear more hopeful, secure and happy. Try to broaden your horizons and look at life on what it has to offer from a wider viewpoint than you have previously done. A new lease of life should be yours with sufficient energy to accomplish everything that you desire.
AQUARIUS. During this week, good fortune is the keyword which can manifest itself in various ways. It may come about as the justly deserved reward for hard work; it could come in the guise of a gift; or it could come out of the blue as the result of some happy accident of fate. However it does come, money will not be in short supply and you should enjoy this temporary period of affluence while it lasts. Be sure to put something away for a rainy day if you possibly can.
PISCES. You should be able to achieve a great deal during this period. However, your real reward will be the pleasure of accomplishing! If your health has previously been causing you some concern it should improve finally. You will look all set to enjoy a new lease of life.

Une femme cherche un cadeau pour l'anniversaire de son mari. Elle se dit: " Pourquoi pas un animal de compagnie ?"
Elle rentre dans une animalerie et tombe en arrêt devant une grenouille affichée à 10 000 euros !!! Elle demande au vendeur ce que la grenouille a de spécial pour valoir ce prix. Le vendeur répond : - "C'est parce qu'elle fait les fellations comme une déesse". La femme se dit que c'est vraiment original et qu'elle fera plaisir à son mari car elle n'aime pas trop faire ça. Et hop, elle achète la grenouille emballée dans son bocal.
Le soir, elle l'offre à son mari, lui souhaite de passer un bon moment et va se coucher. Elle s'endort et se réveille à 3 heures du matin. Son mari n'est plus devant la télé mais dans la cuisine, avec de la farine partout, des bocaux ouverts, la sauce tomate sur le tablier, un cassoulet qui mijote sous les yeux grands ouverts de la grenouille. La femme s'écrie : -" Mais qu'est-ce que tu fais ???" Le mari répond : Je lui apprends à faire la cuisine, et après tu te CASSES !!!
Un abogado mantiene un romance con su secretaria.
Al poco tiempo, ésta queda embarazada y el abogado, que no quiere que su esposa se entere, le da a la secretaria una buena suma de dinero y le pide que se vaya a parir a Italia.
Ésta pregunta: "¿Y como voy a hacerte saber cuando nazca el bebé?"
El abogado responde: "Para que mi mujer no se entere, tan sólo envíame una postal y escribe por detrás: "Spaghetti". Y no te preocupes de más, que yo me encargaré de todos los gastos."
Pasan los meses y una mañana la esposa del abogado lo llama al bufete, algo exaltada: "Querido, acabo de recibir el correo y hay una postal muy extraña de Italia. La verdad, no entiendo qué significa."
El abogado, tratando de ocultar sus nervios, contesta: "Espera a que llegue a casa, a ver si yo entiendo..."
Cuando el hombre llega a casa y lee la postal, cae al suelo fulminado por un infarto.
Llega una ambulancia y se lo lleva. Ya en el hospital, el jefe de cardiología se queda consolando a la esposa y le pregunta cuál ha sido el evento que precipitó tan masivo ataque cardíaco.
Entonces la esposa saca la postal y se la muestra diciéndole: "No me explico, doctor; él solamente leyó esta postal. Vea usted mismo lo que trae escrito."
"Spaghetti, Spaghetti, Spaghetti, Spaghetti, Spaghetti. Tres con salchicha y albóndigas y dos con almejas. "
Superstition aside, there are still many of those who are very skeptic or wary of having their hands read because they would be afraid to hear and be influenced by the negative remarks that would be given by the hand reader. Generally, they would immediately jump to the conclusion that when they see that their life or any other lines are short or broken, it would utterly mean a premature, sudden or tragic end. From the many hands that I’ve already came across and read, however, they totally meant the opposite. Fortunately in most cases, a break would generally signify the end of an old and unfulfilling existence or situation into a new, positive and more meaningful lifestyle such as a radical change or improvement in one’s career, home, finance, health, love, marriage, motherhood, travel, and personal accomplishments. No matter what I see on somebody’s hands, never in my practice did I mention death, accident, separation or anything unpleasant that I consider would easily affect the psyche of the consultant traumatically or otherwise, whether he or she is sensitive or not. My personal priority as a guideline to follow when reading hands is to give each one a chance to live his or her life to the full by accentuating on its positive aspects. Honestly, I couldn’t change their destiny, but I could help them to follow the parallel path that would lead them to be happier and more optimistic in their life in the long run.
Inasmuch as I've never taken any formal schooling or training in astrology, I couldn't tell you in what level I'd be right now. On the other hand, I must confess to you that I don't have a highly logical mind to any seemingly complicated calculation as a result of a traumatic experience with my mathematics teacher when I was in the grade school that made me somewhat allergic to whatever is related to problem solving in numbers or figures. Fortunately, there are easy and ready-to-use programs on natal charts available on the market or online that I could resort to. Otherwise, I'd just easily go banana by taxing my cluttered brain manually on a chart and screwing up with my interpretations of the signs and planets in the end. With a somewhat limited knowledge and training of astrology, I don't interpret the charts on my own personally as I still have a long way to go before I could do so. In practice, I go by the book. Perhaps with the passing of time, I'd be able to acquire the expertise of it the same way as in hand reading.
For your information, I give less attention to the origin and pedigree of the authors whom I wish to consult as long as the content of their works would interest me that it should fully meet with my requirements. What matters more to me are the detailed illustrations and the descriptions contained therein with every minute particularities that would accompany them. Perhaps I must have had read so much on the basics from the beginning that I’ve slowed down or have reached a saturation point in acquiring new titles as I’m getting more and more confused on the technical terms used that could appear new or foreign to me than putting what I’ve already learned into practice. From my own past experience, I find the major hand lines as already predestined, whereas the minor as the evolution of all the future changes and improvements in the course of our growth. Before mastering the hand reading techniques, I resorted to astrology and numerology as an ice-breaker in order to carry out a conversation with new and interesting faces that I’d like to meet. Surprisingly, such a strategy would often work wonders and could spread like a bush fire especially when everybody would become interested on the subject matter out of curiosity.
I'm honored indeed by your comparing me to your grandmother. However, I’d like to tell you that I don’t consider myself as an empath because I had to learn the basic of hand reading from the outset before I could practice it with ease and acquire it instinctively later. I believe your grandmother mainly practiced it by her strong affinity with her consultants. When I was young, I did it first from a growing obsession and attraction to the exotic physique of the white race so that I could touch and hold their hands while I fantasize on how exciting it was to be too close to them, to feel the softness of their skin and to listen to the warmth and sound of their voice. Many years ago, I had a rather funny experience that could have nearly turned into a diplomatic incident with a blond Dutch woman who hailed me to read the hands of her grown-up daughters in a family beach on the Italian Riviera one summer day. One of them was topless and accompanied by her boyfriend. What a gorgeous couple! I was so confused where to put my undivided attention that I couldn’t get my words straight without stammering at the sight of her firm and bulging breasts that almost reached up to her navel. With a seemingly tropical heat at nearly 35 degrees Celsius, I was perspiring so profusely that I thought I’d just wanted to faint and fall as hard as a sack of potatoes right on top of her hadn’t her boyfriend offered me a bottle of cold water to appease my burning desire and bring me back to reason. In the end, I had a great and wonderful time with them by reading everybody’s hand.
Thanks for recommending me the photo websites. Are you the one who is beside the luxury sports car? Wow, I didn’t know how cute and sexy you are! Your suggestion for me to pursue my hand reading studies in

A regular reader from Malaysia had sent me the following request. I wonder if you could help him.
The reason why I could not further my palmistry was simple, I could not get books for deeper research. I personally believe that Indian palmistry and gemology. There are signs on the hand which only Indian palmistry recognizes that are not found in the any of the books I have encountered. I wish there was a book that would go deeper but there isn't. Well at least not where I am from.

Education, law, foreign service, politics and large-scale enterprises are especially suited to your temperament and creative talents. Your work should give you the freedom to function at your own pace. Your judgment is quick and decisive when opportunity knocks and you want the feeling of mobility should a sudden change in tactics seem necessary if you are to take advantage of it.
You relate well to everyone. You have a breezy manner with a fresh outlook at all times that is infectious with those around you. No matter how dismal a situation may be, you just don’t believe things won’t turn out right in the end.
Your mate must share your enthusiasm and zest for living, and living it up as well. She must be willing to live in the mainstream of life where the action is constant and the excitement never diminishes. You want a mate who will stand shoulder to shoulder with you in search for the dreams you share.
Vous pensez détenir la vérité, mais n’oubliez pas que toute vérité est relative. Dans vos actes comme dans vos opinions, vous êtes persuade d’avoir toujours raison. Pour tempérer votre attitude inébranlable, vous devez conserver cette « autre vision du monde » objective dont vous sentez instinctivement le bien-fondé. N’oubliez pas que vous adversaires croient également détenir la vérité absolue. Sans faire d’entorses à vos principes, adoptez la voie du juste milieu et cherchez un compromis. Tant que ce conflit ne sera pas résolu, n’entreprenez rien d’important et ne cherchez pas a réaliser des projets trop ambitieux.
Puisque le conflit n’en est encore qu’à ses débuts, la meilleure attitude à prendre est de cesser immédiatement toute relation avec vos adversaires Vous en viendrez peut-être à une légère dispute, mais a la fin, tout ira bien.
Vous croyez avoir triomphe. Mais votre bonheur sera de courte durée. Votre victoire engendrera une nouvelle réaction de vos adversaires, ce qui aura pour conséquences des luttes a l’infini…
Chaque expérience vous apporte la joie. Vous êtes toujours heureux. Votre caractère calme et tranquille vous rend ouvert et tolérant. Vous ne voyez aucune raison de dissimuler vos véritables sentiments. Votre confiance inébranlable redonne de l’espoir aux autres. Vous leur offrez la possibilité de révéler leurs pulsions profondes, de retrouver avec vous le sens de la joie.
Fortuna. Ricchezza d’animo. Chi ha saputo seguire la strada della giustizia e della correttezza con l’umilita di un bimbo vedra la sorte sempre dalla sua parte. Ogni cosa gli cade in mano poiche ha saputo meritarsela, con le proprie forze, senza prepotenza o arroganza. Affinche la fortunata situazione non si capovolga, e necessario restare puri e fedeli alla chiarezza del proprio cuore. La fortuna e propizia al consultante, il momento e favorevole per qualsiasi impresa. Tuttavia si raccomanda l’umilita perche la fortuna e un dono del cielo e non va dilapidata per orgoglio prodigalita. Bisogna mantenersi semplici e benevoli nella ricchezza, e mostrare una sincerita priva di ostentazione.

ARIES. Disruptions and disagreements would likely manifest during this phase. On the other hand, few things will go smoothly but be prepared for delays, cancellations and a great deal of wasted time. Some problems could affect your private life which will need careful handling if you wish to continue in your present relationship. Fortunately, a positive outcome is also quite likely when something much better and longer lasting can be established.
TAURUS. Advancement, material gain and assistance, careers in particular should prosper during this period, especially if someone influential chooses to put in a good word for you. Your financial affairs should also take a turn for the better – it may even be possible to put something away for your old age. Incidentally, there could be a slight element of risk and you would be very unwise to do anything foolish no matter how well things seem to be going for you.
GEMINI. Love is once again your main concern. A holiday feeling and foreign travel is very likely. Generally this could be a happy time which you should spend in the company of your family, friends and loved ones whenever possible.
CANCER. You should take on extra responsibilities particularly in your private life. It would likely be that one of your children may need your support or an elderly relative could prove burdensome that you may have to make some form of personal sacrifice in order to fulfill all your obligations. In the end, this could turn out to be a blessing in disguise. Have courage and don’t despair, you are in for a busy and physically demanding time.
LEO. You would be able to sit back a little and really enjoy your achievements. You could always use this breathing space to plan what your next move should be. On the other hand, your private life should also settle down and the need to be continually proving yourself to your partner would gradually fade away, leaving you more relaxed and happy.
VIRGO. This period promises successful plans. But the help from superiors would likely be needed in the form of advice in order to put these plans into action as also as the protection of those in high places. Both will be readily available if required. Contracts and travel are highlighted.
LIBRA. There would be a substantial progress in a project for which you are solely responsible as well as some form of personal reward in recognition of all the long hours and hard work you have invested in the scheme. A major change in your lifestyle is also indicated which will be necessary if you wish to build a more secure future for yourself. Some of the restrictions which you have been under in the past should now lift allowing you more personal freedom and ample time to enjoy it.
SCORPIO. This is a period of successful planning prior to the start of a new venture of some kind that could point to the opening of a business, perhaps the purchase of a new property or, on a more personal level, marriage and parenthood. You should look after your money wisely because your enthusiasm could cause you to overspend.
SAGITTARIUS. Business opportunities and travel are well aspected as stimulating developments should take place in your career which could result in several short trips, probably abroad. These should prove to be a great success provided that you get your facts straight and always play by the rules. Watch out for surprises! Some form of partnership also seems likely and this could mean a new romantic attachment for you.
CAPRICORN. This week could prove highly beneficial for your health should you choose to spend more time on your own by allowing yourself time to think, relax and generally unwind from the pressures of life. However, this does not mean that you should become a recluse and totally isolate yourself from your fellow men. You should try to set some time aside each day to gather your thoughts.
AQUARIUS. A very favorable period indeed when you will feel victorious to see your major hope fulfilled. Good news is also on the way concerning a matter of a rather personal nature. When dealing with people who seem to oppose your views and opinions, it would be wise to win them round to your way of thinking by tact and diplomacy.
PISCES. Lucky you! Now is the time to harvest the fruits of your labors when all your hard work would eventually pay dividends and your efforts well rewarded. Once you have finished celebrating your success you should try to relax from all the pressure that your body has been under lately. Try to get away for a while if at all possible.

Unexpectedly that fall just a few days before my birthday, I received a wire from the French Embassy requesting me to present myself again for an oral examination and interview by the newly-appointed cultural attaché. All of a sudden, I saw a ray of hope. Although I knew I had a rather slim chance of winning the scholarship this time, I just couldn’t cry victory until the result was official, because I was too scared to go through the same experience I have had at the Foreign Office, once again. Moreover, there were two other candidates from more prestigious and exclusive private schools than mine who were also vying for it. Somehow, I felt some guilt of self-apprehension for not being an honor student or an alumnus from the big league universities, yet I was too proud to be the only one from my school to have qualified in the finals. What a mixed blessing of laughter and tears when the scholarship was officially awarded to me a week later. My office colleagues were so overwhelmed to see me jumped with joy by the telephone as I broke them the good news and they congratulated me, even those who detested and envied me for speaking French. It came to me as a total surprise that I could hardly believe I finally made it. For a fraction of a second, I went blank and couldn’t utter a word as if I was practically hit by a lightning. My mind traveled at a supersonic speed into a kaleidoscopic jumble of images of colorful postcard views of the Seine,

Dear Hiram,
You are generally kind and mild-mannered in disposition and you go out of your way to compromise if it will maintain peace and order. You strive for harmony in your affairs and in your dealings with people. It is difficult for you to make decisions because you aren’t usually sufficiently aware of all the pertinent facts and you don’t want to offend anyone by what may be a bad judgment.
You are skilled in saying the right thing at the right time to achieve your objectives. You will probably be comfortable in a career involving public where your art of clever communication and dialogue can be demonstrated. You are eager to stay in the mainstream of social activity and try to win as many friends as possible and to stay informed on current social events. You want constant reassurances that you are effective and competent in your chosen field of work and look for approval at every opportunity. You are basically very insecure about your credibility and need the feedback from appreciative audiences to give you the self-confidence that may be lacking.
You identify so much with society that only when you win its admiration do you feel rewarded. You are growth oriented and you usually associate with professional people whose positions might prove helpful to you in gaining the recognition you feel your talents deserve. There is little you can accomplish on your own.
Your physical desires are not overly emphasized in your life. What you desire most is a warm, understanding companion who will give you the moral support to help you to succeed.
You would have a tremendous will to succeed. Hasty and hotheaded, you can be impatient and do not suffer fools gladly. You enjoy exercise, and possess both physical and mental daring. Carelessness can lead to accidents, but your recuperative powers are excellent.
You will possess magnetic powers of attraction and will never be without a string of admirers. As a result your sexuality needs positive expression and must not be suppressed. You tend to be financially generous, if rather gullible. Caution and professional financial advice are advisable. With the happy combination of intuition and logic, you usually posses a shrewd business head. In the Scorpio/Pluto house, your emotional level will be particularly high. However, the influence of Pluto may cause some repression, and sexual expression in particular may be blocked. Although you can be very secretive, any emotional problems will only be resolved by discussion with your partner.
Challenging journeys, for both mind and body, are guaranteed to appeal to you. Education, philosophy, and travel are all very important and you will want to broaden your intellectual horizons and develop an individual philosophy of life. You have a rich fantasy life, which can get out of hand, and a practical approach to life must be encouraged. You are likely to marry a foreigner and move away from your country or place of birth. A philosophical attitude to life may be apparent, along with an innate desire to make the world a better place to live in. If you are motivated and energetic, you would make great efforts to achieve your ambition and you may work for a charity or in the peace movement.
You like to change jobs frequently, and even your career. Ideally, your work needs to have a good mix of intellectual stimulation, and mobility. You are driven by a powerful desire to get to the top. Mars will bring you ambition and a longing for fame and status. However, you may be impatient and find tension hard to deal with when faced with cautious and more plodding colleagues, tempestuous quarrels may result. Your early life may have been strongly affected by an over-assertive paternal presence. You are intensely romantic with a lively imagination that are your attractive attributes. But you must try to keep at least one foot on the ground, instead of surrendering to fantasy.
Being spiritual and selfless, you may possess deep-seated religious or spiritual beliefs. You tend to work best when alone. You are kind and compassionate, with strong sense of social responsibility. As a result, you are ideally suited to a career in the caring or medical professions. You enjoy your own company and need to withdraw from the world every now and then to recharge your energy supplies. You are happy to work behind the scenes, and do not seek acclaim or glory.
