I just wanted to let you know that the new Homeland Security Bill has passed. Things will be different now and Internet surfing will be tracked by what the 'Agency' calls a "non-intrusive method." The 'Agency' says you will not notice anything different.
For a demonstration, click here.

spinning magnets
This is a toy I got from Jumbo; Basically it's just a set of metal spheres and magnetized sticks.
It makes for some really interesting combinations.

Spiritual Enlightenment Truth Realization Blog By ET
Spiritual Enlightenment Truth Realization Non-Duality Blog By Edward Traversa: "There is no magic involved in awakening. It?s not based on IQ, amount of suffering, how compassionate you are, how well you surrender, work ethic, gender, race, age etc. There is no chosen elite, no secret handshakes, and no mystical practices.
Its all about facing reality as is, without blinkers on and without ideas about how enlightenment should be. That’s the whole secret of enlightenment. Which isnt much of a secret. "

reiki
Lately (by that I mean in the last few days) I started giving reiki ...
It's one of my long-term goals, and I seem to be moving into it, slowly.
Now, if you know me, you'll probably wonder:
WHY?!?
I mean ... we all know that psychologically I'm the pleasure-seeker type and more than a little lazy.
Here's my answer: It's a good feeling to do it. As lot of people had stated, if you give reiki correctly, it leaves you energized.
I didn't really grasp how giving something leaves you better off, but now I will add that it also leaves you fulfilled and happy and whole.
Wholefully yours,
the lazy guy

foray into nicossia
What a senseless waste of human life!
Monty Python
I went to the romanian consulate today, to solve my pesky-password-passed-away problem (in short, it expired).
I made sure to be prepared, taking four passport photos with me, my local papers and permits, and currently passed away passport.
It didn't work.
I got there and found out that I needed six photos instead of four, discovered I didn't have some details from Romania (namely the ID card of someone from there) with me and couldn't do anything.
So, with two hours before the consulate closing for the day I started the happy trip through Nicosia for a photo studio for two additional photos and some iCaffee for my 'details from Romania' problem.
It's amazing how things turn out some times; I'm not talking of BIG things here (like me getting the papers done, because it didn't happen) but of small things (like finding an internet connection with no iCaffee in the area, while looking for a photo studio).
Anyway, back to the story: I walked some streets around there, went as (mistakenly) dirrected up to the secretary of the manager of the big Siemens building in the area (they had this really cool external elevator that made your stomach ascend to your neck as you reached fifth floor), and at some point I found a small and forgotten shop selling ... something computer related (not sure what) that had an internet connection.
I got back to the consulate with 20 minutes to spare, filled almost all papers (I found out I actually needed my left-at-home ID card), talked to the counselor and found out I have program for monday morning:
I'm visiting the counsullate again. Oh Joy!
So ... random impressions from my forray into Nicossia?
The lady at the photo studio was downright beautiful and had a killer smile;
I have to make sure to get some thicker clothes on monday with me;
Waking up at seven in the morning sucks!
The way to there and back made for a very relaxing (albeit short) sleep;
There is no cow level!
... and ... that's about it!
Here are some pictures:

Spring in Trodos Mountains
This was taken while going towards Calledonia Falls.
Unfortunately (or luckyly - depends how you look at it) the road to there is much more interesting than the falls.
Diver in poor visibility
I don't remember the dive site; Perhaps I'll look through my diving log at some point.
