Champion Rossi quietly satisfied with test work

Although he could not prevent Casey Stoner taking the glory in the BMW M Award showdown, Valentino Rossi was content with his work at the Official MotoGP Test.
The World Champion Valentino Rossi came second in Sunday’s Jerez showdown with his predecessor as MotoGP title winner Casey Stoner, but the Fiat Yamaha man made progress in southern Spain and has had a good preseason as he prepares to defend his premier class crown.
The legendary Italian rider put in a best lap of 1’39.365s in the BMW M Award shootout, leaving him trailing Stoner by a 0.719 gap, but he was in or around the top three on the timesheets consistently over the course of the weekend, just as he was in tests at Sepang and Losail International earlier this year.
“Firstly the conditions were quite bad in the 45 minute session, but anyway I am quite happy, especially about the work we did yesterday and this morning,” Rossi stated. “We tested a lot of new and different things which worked well and we have found a setting which will be good for the race here at Jerez. I am quite fast with the hard tyres, I feel strong and our speed is ok.”
Having been tangled up with San Carlo Honda Gresini’s Toni Elias at one stage and interrupted by the temporary halt in proceedings when Tech 3’s James Toseland crashed heavily, Rossi felt he could have gone quicker on Sunday.
However he nonetheless acknowledged Stoner’s rapid pace when he added, “Over one lap Stoner is faster than me, he did a good time today so congratulations to him. I was a little bit unlucky with the red flag and with Toni Elias. My potential is a little bit faster than I went, but I don’t think it was possible to have gone as fast as Casey.”

Suatu ketika tiba-tiba Kuil Dairin diserang oleh seseorang bernama Oudow yang ternyata adalah mantan murid dari Kuil dairin dan termasuk salah satu murid guru Yosen. Pak Tua yang sudah tidak melihat harapan apapun karena semua orang dikuil dairin tidak ada yang mampu melawan Oudow dengan sengaja membuka segel Dewa Petir dan memberikan jurus tersebut kepada Chinmi.

Saiyan Saga

Goku yang telah berkeluarga, memiliki seorang anak yang diberi Gohan, (nama ini diambil dari mendiang kakek Goku). Ketika Goku yang sedang mengajak Gohan mampir di Kame House, tiba-tiba bumi dikejutkan kedatangan bangsa Saiya yang bernama Raditz, akhirnya diketahui bahwa dia adalah kakak kandung Goku. Dia menceritakan asal-usul Goku yang ternyata berasal dari planet Vegeta, sekaligus nama aslinya, Kakarot.

Tujuan Goku dikirim ke bumi adalah untuk memusnahkan penduduk bumi yang kemudian planet bumi akan dikuasai oleh bangsa Saiya. Karena menolak melaksanakan perintah kakaknya, Raditz menyandera Gohan. Karena tidak mampu mengalahkan sendirian Goku meminta Piccolo bergabung. Akhir pertarungan Goku tewas berkorban bersama Raditz. Namum sebelum mati, melalui scouter Raditz memberitahukan kepada dua orang bangsa Saiya lainnya yang akan datang ke Bumi setahun mendatang. Scouter adalah alat canggih berbentuk kacamata, yang digunakan untuk berkomunikasi oleh para Saiya, dan juga mampu untuk mendeteksi level tarung seseorang.

Piccolo lalu mengambil Gohan untuk dilatih menghadapi bangsa Saiya yang akan datang tersebut. Dia melatih Gohan tanpa belas kasihan. Akhirnya tiba saat penentuan. Sementara itu Goku berlatih di dunia orang mati bersama King Kai, agar bisa menghadapi musuh berikutnya.

Planek Namek

Setelah pertempuran dengan Vegeta dan Nappa di bumi, yang memakan korban para Z-fighters, temasuk Piccolo, maka Dragon Ball pun turut musnah. Setelah berdiskusi dengan King Kai, diketahui bahwa di planet Namek, planet asal dari Piccolo masih terdapat spesies bangsa Namek yang masih hidup dan berkembang. Dengan demikian para Z-fighters berharap ada Dragon Ball di planet tersebut dan berangkat dengan pesawat luar angkasa bangsa namek asli yang membutuhkan waktu sekitar 3 bulan untuk sampai ke planet Namek. Setelah sampai di planet Namek, ternyata sudah dijajah oleh Frieza dan kroni-kroninya yang mempunya power level jauh lebih kejam dan lebih kuat dari Vegeta. Bahkan alat komunikasi dan pesawat luar angkasa mereka dihancurkan.

Sementara itu di Bumi, Goku yang masih terbaring di rumah sakit, mendapat kunjungan dari Yajirobe yang memberikan kacang ajaib yang berkhasiat tidak hanya mengenyangkan saja tetapi dapat menyembuhkan segala macam penyakit, patah tulang, pendarahan dalam, patah leher, kejang kejang, pegel linu dan masuk angin dengan seketika. Setelah sembuh segera ia menyusul Bulma, Gohan dan Krillin yang telah berangkat lebih dahulu dengan pesawat lebih canggih yang dibuat berdasarkan pesawat bangsa Saiya, hanya membutuhkan waktu sekitar 1 bulan. Dalam perjalanannya Goku berlatih di dalam pesawatnya yang telah dilengkapi mesin gravitasi x 100 oleh bantuan Dr. Briefs (ayahnya Bulma).

Dalam pertengahan cerita, Vegeta terpaksa bergabung dengan Z-fighters demi mengalahkan Frieza. Namun akhirnya tewas oleh Frieza, setelah ia menceritakan legenda Super Saiyan kepada Goku. Akhir cerita, Goku akhirnya berubah menjadi Super Saiyan namun hanya sekejap karena pada saat pertarungan berakhir, ternyata planet Namek meledak hancur berkeping keping.

Cell Saga

Setelah planet Namek meledak. Mendadak Z-fighters dikejutkan oleh kedatangan seorang pemuda yang menghabisi Frieza dengan wujud Super Saiyan. Bahkan lebih mengejutkan ia mengatakan bahwa Goku masih hidup dari ledakan di planet Namek.

Setelah menanti selama 3 jam, akhirnya Goku sampai di bumi, dan si pemuda misterius itu mengungkapkan (hanya kepada Goku) bahwa ia adalah pemuda dari masa depan yang bernama Trunks. Ia mengatakan bahwa pada waktu XXX akan muncul dua androids yang sangat hebat dan sadis yang membuat masa depan seperti neraka, bahkan dalam wujud Super Saiyan sekalipun mereka tidak tertandingi dan membunuh seluruh Z-fighters. Ia bercerita bahwa Goku di masa depan bukanlah terbunuh oleh android melainkan oleh suatu penyakit. Demi mencegah masa depan yang dialaminya, Trunks memberikan obat dari masa depan (yang mengakibatkan dunia pararel)

Dari garis waktu yang menyimpang tersebut, muncul lagi dua android yang tidak diketahui, yaitu Android #19 dan Android #20 (Dr. Gero) yang memiliki dendam kepada Goku karena pada waktu kecil, Goku telah menghancurkan Red Ribbon Army (Tentara Pita Merah). Mereka sangatlah kuat. Android #20 nyaris membunuh Yamcha dengan menyerap habis energinya.Tetapi bisa diselamatkan dengan kacang senzu. Sementara Goku memulai pertarungannya dengan Android #19. Tetapi Android #19 lebih kuat dari Goku. Goku hampir terbunuh sama halnya dengan Yamcha. Akan tetapi,tiba-tiba penyakit jantung yang pernah diceritakan oleh trunks menyerang Goku lebih awal dari yang diperkirakan. Yamcha langsung membawa dan merawat Goku.

Vegeta yang baru saja berlatih di luar angkasa pulang kembali ke bumi dengan kemampuan barunya untuk menjadi super saiya-jin. Ia mengalahkan Android #19 dengan menggunakan jurus Big Bang Attack. Android #20 yang sudah hampir terkalahkan dan terbongkar identitasnya, Kembali ke laboratoriumnya yang terletak di gunung utara untuk mengaktifkan kembali Android #17 dan Android #18. Inilah android yang pernah diceritakan oleh Trunks. Tetapi,mereka lebih kuat dari perkiraan Trunks.

Buu Saga

Diawali dengan pertandingan bela diri sejagat yang kembali diadakan. Kejuaraan ini diikuti oleh Goku yang sengaja datang dari alam orang mati, Gohan yang menyamar menjadi Great Saiyaman, Vegeta, Piccolo, Krillin, dan lain-lainnya. Hanya Yamcha dan Tien serta Master Roshi yang tidak ikut pertandingan.

Pada saat pertandingan, ternyata ada kejadian dimana lawan tarung Gohan memintanya berubah menjadi Super Saiyan. Ketika berubah menjadi Super Saiyan tiba tiba Gohan disergap oleh dua orang suruhan Babidy. Kedua orang tersebut ditugaskan untuk mencari energi yang besar, yang diperlukan untuk membangkitkan Buu. Monster yang berabad-abad lalu pernah nyaris menghancurkan alam semesta.

Setelah Buu terbebas dari sangkarnya, dengan serta merta tidak ada yang bisa menandinginya. bahkan Vegeta yang sengaja meledakkan energi dalam tubuhnya, hanya mengakibatkan kematiannya saja, dengan Buu tetap bisa hidup.

Gohan yang disangka sudah tewas dalam pertempuran melawan Buu, ternyata berhasil diselamatkan King Kai ke alam Kaioo. Di sana ia berlatih untuk bisa mengalahkan Buu. Sementara Goku yang hanya punya waktu terbatas (karena datang dari alam orang mati) mengajarkan fusion kepada Trunks dan Goten setelah menyadari kekuatan yang dimiliki anak-anak tersebut jika bergabung ada kemungkinan bisa mengalahkan Buu.

Dan dalam pertarungan melawan Buu untuk kesekian kalinya, akhirnya berhasil dimusnahkan dengan jurus Spirit Bomb yang dilemparkan Goku. Namun dalam versi resminya, adalah Mr. Satan (biasa juga disebut Hercule) yang dianggap menyelamatkan bumi, sekali lagi.

Avatar : The Last Air Bender

Avatar: The Legend of Aang (Bahasa Indonesia: Avatar, pengendali angin terakhir; dikenal sebagai Avatar: The Last Airbender di Amerika Serikat dan beberapa negara) adalah sebuah serial animasi televisi Amerika yang ditayangkan oleh jaringan televisi Nickelodeon. Mengambil tempat di dalam dunia seni beladiri dan sihir unsur-unsur alam dengan pengaruh Asia, ceritanya mengikuti petualangan demi petualangan dari penerus gelar Avatar bernama Aang dan teman-temannya dalam perjalanan mereka menyelamatkan dunia dari Negara Api yang keji. Serial ini dituliskan dalam bentuk serial buku, dengan setiap episodenya dianggap sebagai sebuah "bab" (chapter) dan setiap musimnya disebut sebagai "buku" (book). Di Indonesia, film ini ditayangkan oleh Global TV.

Latar belakang

Avatar: The Legend of Aang mengambil tempat di sebuah dunia fantasi, tempat tinggal manusia, berbagai binatang fantastik, dan roh-roh. Peradaban manusia terbagi-bagi menjadi empat bangsa, Suku Air (Water Tribe), Kerajaan Bumi (Earth Kingdom), Pengembara Udara (Air Nomads), dan Negara Api (Fire Nation). Dalam setiap bangsa ada orang-orang yang dipanggil Bender (secara harfiah berarti "Pembengkok", namun dalam hal ini dianggap "Pengendali") yang memiliki kemampuan mengendalikan unsur alam sesuai bangsa mereka. Seni mengendalikan unsur alam ini merupakan perpaduan gaya seni beladiri dan sihir unsur alam.

Dalam setiap generasi, ada seseorang yang mampu mengendalikan setiap unsur, ialah yang dipanggil sebagai Avatar, roh dari planet yang menitis dalam bentuk manusia. Ketika seorang Avatar meninggal dunia, dia akan terlahir kembali di bangsa yang gilirannya selalu bergantian sesuai dengan siklus Avatar, yang seiring dengan musim: musim dingin untuk air, musim semi untuk tanah, musim panas untuk api, dan musim gugur untuk udara. Legenda mengatakan bahwa seorang Avatar harus mempelajari seni mengendalikan unsur sesuai dengan urutannya, dimulai dengan unsur asli bangsa sang Avatar, namun terkadang urutan ini bisa dilewat jika keadaan memaksa. Mempelajari pengendalian unsur yang berlawanan dengan unsur asli bangsa seseorang adalah hal yang teramat sulit karena perbedaan gaya seni beladiri dan doktrin-doktrinnya.

Ikhtisar alur cerita

Seabad sebelum pembukaan cerita serial ini, Aang, seorang anak laki-laki pengendali angin berusia 14 tahun dari Kuil Udara Selatan milik kaum Pengembara Udara, diberitahu oleh para tetua bahwa ia adalah "Sang Avatar". Biasanya, seorang Avatar diberitahu jati dirinya sebagai seorang Avatar ketika ia beranjak 16 tahun, namun, para biksu takut akan perang yang terjadi diantara keempat bangsa akan segera terjadi dan dalam waktu singkat seorang Avatar akan diperlukan untuk menjaga keseimbangan dan kedamaian dunia. Hal ini membuat Aang sangat kebingungan dan tertekan. Singkat cerita, Aang kabur dari Kuil Udara Selatan, namun di tengah jalan ia bertemu dengan badai yang sangat besar dan ia bersama Appa (seekor banteng terbang raksasa miliknya) jatuh tenggelam ke dalam laut. Tetapi Aang segera membuat bola udara mengitari tubuhnya dan Appa sehingga ia tidak basah. Bola udara tersebut membekukan air di sekitarnya sehingga Aang dan Appa terkurung di dalam bongkahan es.sudah bertahun lamanya tidak disengaja aang dan appa ditemukan oleh 2 orang kakak beradik saka dan katara [pengendali air] yang kebetulan terjebak dilautan Es itu,singkt cerita mereka pun kembali kenegara air dengan bantuan appa yang bisa terbang.pertemuan mereka pun awal dari persahabatan.

Pengaruh dari budaya

Avatar banyak meminjam seni dan mitologi dari benua Asia untuk menciptakan sebuah dunia fiksi. Avatar juga mencampur filosopi, bahasa, agama, seni bela diri, pakaian, dan budaya dari negara-negara Asia seperti misalnya Cina, Jepang, Mongolia, Korea, India, dan Tibet. Penampilan Suku Air kelihatannya dipengaruhi oleh budaya Inuit. Secara terang-terangan dapat ditemukan pengaruh dari seni dan sejarah China, anime Jepang, Hinduisme, Taoisme, Buddhisme,dan Yoga.Staf produksi memperkerjakan konsultan budaya, Edwin Zane, untuk meninjau naskah cerita.

Arti dari istilah Avatar

Istilah Avatar berasal dari bahasa Sanskerta, yaitu Avatāra, yang berarti "turun". Dalam mitologi Hindu, para dewa memanifestasikan dirinya dengan turun menjelma ke dunia untuk mengembalikan keseimbangan di muka bumi setelah mengalami zaman kejahatan, dan mereka disebut Sang Avatar. Aksara Cina yang muncul di atas kata "Avatar" pada pembukaan cerita berarti "Perantara Tuhan yang turun ke dunia fana

Bila ada yang tidak kita sukai dari doi, lebih baik jujur. Klo perlu obrolin saat kita dan dia sedang berdua-an saja. Ngga pa pa koq, agak sakit sedikit tapi enak belakangan hari. Seperti kita gk suka melihat klo doi terlalu baik, mau mengantarkan smua teman cewe-nya. Ya boleh dech, kita trus terang aja, daripada saling sindir ato berantem.

Maaf memang ada batasnya.
Namun gak ada salahnya juga kamu slalu siapkan kata maaf.
Namanya juga manusia, pasti ada salah dan gak sempurna.

Ato tengok sebentar aja, bagaimana dengan pelajaran dia yang tertinggal.

Awas ! Pacaran dengan doi, berarti kita juga wajib dekat dengan keluarganya
Minimal, kamu kenal dengan mereka. Sehingga, jika ada apa2, komunikasinya mudah. Kamupun bisa mendapat dukungan dari mereka lho.

Tips Untuk Yang Sedang Jatuh Cinta

Beberapa tips yang di perlu di perhatikan bila kita sedang jatuh cinta..

1.Jangan tertarik kepada seseorang karena parasnya, sebab keelokan paras dapat menyesatkan. Jangan pula tertarik kepada kekayaannya karena kekayaan dapat musnah. Tertariklah kepada seseorang yang dapat membuatmu tersenyum, karena hanya senyum yang dapat membuat hari-hari yang gelap menjadi cerah. Semoga kamu sdh menemukan orang seperti itu.

2.Ada saat-saat dalam hidup ketika kamu sangat merindukan seseorang sehingga ingin hati menjemputnya dari alam mimpi dan memeluknya dalam alam nyata. Semoga kamu bukan hanya memimpikan orang seperti itu.

3.Bermimpilah tentang apa yang ingin kamu impikan, pergilah ke tempat-tempat kamu ingin pergi. Jadilah seperti yang kamu inginkan, karena kamu hanya memiliki satu kehidupan dan satu kesempatan untuk melakukan hal-hal yang ingin kamu lakukan.

4.Semoga kamu mendapatkan kebahagiaan yang cukup untuk membuatmu baik hati,cobaan yang cukup untuk membuatmu kuat, kesedihan yang cukup untuk membuatmu manusiawi, pengharapan yang cukup untuk membuatmu bahagia dan uang yang cukup untuk membeli segala keperluanmu.

5.Ketika satu pintu kebahagiaan tertutup, pintu yang lain dibukakan. Tetapi acap kali kita terpaku terlalu lama pada pintu yang tertutup sehingga tidak melihat pintu lain yang dibukakan bagi kita.

6.Sahabat terbaik adalah dia yang dapat duduk berayun-ayun di beranda bersamamu,tanpa mengucapkan sepatah katapun, dan kemudian kamu meninggalkannya dengan perasaan telah bercakap-cakaplama dengannya.

7.Sungguh benar bahwa kita tidak tahu apa yang kita miliki sampai kita kehilangannya, tetapi sungguh benar pula bahwa kita tidak tahu apa yang belum pernah kita miliki sampai kita mendapatkannya.

8.Pandanglah segala sesuatu dari kacamata orang lain. Apabila hal itu menyakitkan hatimu, sangat mungkin hal itu menyakitkan hari orang lain pula.

9.Kata-kata yang diucapkan sembarangan dapat menyulut perselisihan. Kata-kata yang kejam dapat menghancurkan suatu kehidupan. Kata-kata yang diucapkan pada tempatnya dapat meredakan ketegangan. Kata-kata yang penuh cinta dapat menyembuhkan dan memberkahi.

10.Awal dari cinta adalah membiarkan orang yang kita cintai menjadi dirinya sendiri, dan tidak merubahnya menjadi gambaran yang kita inginkan. Jika tidak, kita hanya mencintai pantulan diri sendiri yang kita temukan di dalam dia.

11.Orang-orang yang paling berbahagia pun tidak selalu memiliki hal-hal terbaik,mereka hanya berusaha menjadikan yang terbaik dari setiap hal yang hadir dalam hidupnya.

12.Mungkin Tuhan menginginkan kita bertemu dengan beberapa orang yang salah sebelum bertemu dengan orang yang tepat, kita harus mengerti bagaimana berterima kasih atas karunia itu.

13.Hanya diperlukan waktu semenit untuk menaksir seseorang, sejam untuk menyukai seseorang dan sehari untuk mencintai seseorang,tetapi diperlukan waktu seumur hidup untuk melupakan seseorang.

14.Kebahagiaan tersedia bagi mereka yang menangis,mereka yang disakiti hatinya, mereka yang mencari dan mereka yang mencoba. Karena hanya mereka itulah yang menghargai pentingnya orang-orang yang pernah hadir dalam hidup mereka.

15.Cinta adalah jika kamu kehilangan rasa, gairah, romantika dan masih tetap perduli padanya.

16.Hal yang menyedihkan dalam hidup adalah ketika kamu bertemu seseorang yang sangat berarti bagimu dan mendapati pada akhirnya bahwa tidak demikian adanya dan kamu harus melepaskannya.

17.Cinta dimulai dengan sebuah senyuman, bertumbuh dengan sebuah ciuman dan berakhir dengan tetesan air mata.

18.Cinta datang kepada mereka yang masih berharap sekalipun pernah dikecewakan, kepada mereka yang masih percaya sekalipun pernah dikhianati,kepada mereka yang masih mencintai sekalipun pernah disakiti hatinya.

19.Sungguh menyakitkan mencintai seseorang yang tidak mencintaimu, tetapi lebih menyakitkan adalah mencintai seseorang dan tidak pernah memiliki keberanian untuk mengutarakan cintamu kepadanya.

20.Masa depan yang cerah selalu tergantung pada masa lalu yang dilupakan. Kamu tidak dapat hidup terus dengan baik jika kamu tidak melupakan kegagalan dan sakit hati di masa lalu.

21.Jangan pernah mengucapkan selamat tinggal jika kami masih mau mencoba, jangan pernah menyerah jika kamu masih merasa sanggup, jangan pernah mengatakan kamu tidak mencintainya lagi jika kamu masih tidak dapat melupakannya.

22. Memberikan seluruh cintamu kepada seseorang bukanlah jaminan dia akan membalas cintamu. Jangan mengharapkan balasan cinta, tunggulah sampai cinta berkembang di hatinya, tetapi jika tidak, berbahagialah karena cinta tumbuh di hatimu.

pasangan ideal

Pasangan asmara yang ideal tentunya adalah yang dapat memenuhi kebutuhan kamu. Misalnya saja kamu menyukai kehidupan glamor maka pasangan yang ideal adalah yang bisa melimpahi kamu dengan materi. Namun sebenarnya hal ini adalah faktor yang terlihat di permukaan saja. Ada hal-hal lain yang perlu kamu pertimbangkan dalam memilih pasangan hidup:

1. Tulus hati dan jujur

Perhatian yang diberikan kepada kamu bukanlah pura-pura atau berdasarkan pamrih. Kamu juga bisa yakin bahwa dia .jujur pada dirinya sendiri, kamu dan orang-orang di sekitarnya. Agar ia bisa jujur tampilkan dirimu apa adanya, jangan terlalu banyak memoles diri. Dengan demikian pasangan kamu akan memnunjukkan dirinya yang sebenarnya.

2. Bisa menghargai perbedaan

Dia tetap bisa menghargai keputusanmu meskipun kamu memiliki cara pandang yang berbeda dengannya.

3. Kematangan dan tanggung jawab

Tanda-tanda seseorang telah mencapai kematangan pribadi adalah bila seseorang bersedia membantu memcahkan masalah, tidak ingkar janji. Bila dia tidak memiliki kematangan dan tanggung jawab, kamu akan merasa tidak nyaman disampingnya.

4. Punya kepercayaan diri

Ia tidak mudah terombang-ambing, tidak gampang tersinggung, dan tidak menganggap dirimu sebagai ancaman. Jika pasanganmu tidak punya rasa percaya diri, akan sulit bagi Anda untuk sejalan dengannya dalam banyak hal.

5. Terbuka secara emosional

Dia mau berbagi perasaan baik ketika senang ataupun susah. Keterbukaan emosional menandakan pula bahwa ia mempercayai kamu dan merasa nyaman di dekatmu.

6. Memiliki perhatian

Perhatian bisa melanggengkan hubungan asmara. Tapi jangan kamu saja yang terkagum-kagum dengannya. Dia pun harus memiliki perasaan yang sama padamu.

It's Time to Make a Friends

There's a certain beauty in being a lone wolf. You have more time to do things you want to do, like take introspective walks, read books, write poetry, and other solitary endeavors. If you want to diversify your options, though, there are literally billions of potential friends in the world. What's more, many of these people want to make friends just as much as you do. So consider these suggestions to meet people and form strong, lasting friendships.

1. Spend more time around people. If you want to make friends, you first need to put yourself out there somehow. Friends seldom come knocking on your door while you sit at home watching TV. If the people you're already around (e.g. at work or school) aren't friend material for whatever reasons, it's not the end of the world.
* Join a club with people who have common interests. You don't necessarily have to have a lot of common interests with people in order to make friends with them. In fact, some of the most rewarding friendships are between two people who don't have much in common at all, but if you have something in common with people, it can make it a lot easier to start a conversation and plan activities together.
* Use the web but get out! Websites like Meetup.com is aiming to bring people together with common interest. You can join to any group or just start your own. Great way to meet new local people!
* Join a sports team. A common misconception about this is that you have to be really good at playing a particular sport in order to make friends with others on the team, but not all teams are so competitive. As long as you enjoy the sport and support your teammates, joining a local team with a laid-back attitude could be a great way to make new friends.
* Volunteer. Volunteering is a great way for people of all ages to meet others. By working together you build bonds with people, and you might meet others who have a passion for changing things the way you do—a common cause.
* Get online. In general, the Internet is a great place to make friends, but... it's also easy to invest a lot of time online with someone you think of as a friend, but then you never meet because of time and distance. Expect to have to sift through a lot of people online before you find the one or two great friends, the kind who will be there for you when you really need them. The Internet can also help you find other people around the world who share your interests even if you live in an isolated place. And even though the Internet is a great place in general you still have to be cautious because not every person you meet online are who they say they are.
2. Talk to people. You can join a club, go to school, or go to church, and you still won't make friends if you don't actually talk to people. By the same token, you don't have to be involved with an organization to talk to people, and any time you talk to someone, you have a chance at making a lasting friend. You can talk to anybody: the clerk at the video store, the person sitting next to you on the bus, or the person in front of you on the lunch line. Don't be too picky. Most conversations will be a dead-end of sorts--when you may never talk to that person again, or you just remain acquaintances--but once in a while you'll actually make a friend.
* Make eye contact and smile. If you have an unfriendly countenance, people are less likely to be receptive to your friendship. Look approachable by not squinting (get some glasses), frowning or appearing blankly deadpan, such expressions may look troubled or disinterested.
* Start a conversation. There are many ways to do this; a comment about your immediate environment (The weather is a classic: "At least it's not raining like last week!"), a request for help ("Can you help me carry a few boxes, if you have a minute?" or "Can you help me decide which one of these is a better gift for my mom?") or a compliment ("That's a nice car." or "I love your shoes."). Follow up immediately with a related question: Do you like this warm weather? What kinds of gifts do you normally buy for your mom? Where did you get shoes like that?
* Make small talk. Keep the conversation light and cheery. Even if you're complaining about something, make sure it's something you're both dissatisfied with, and emphasize the positive—how such a situation can be avoided in the future, or alternatives. Bounce a few words back and forth for a little bit.
3. Introduce yourself towards the end of the conversation. It can be as simple as saying "Oh, by the way, my name is...". Once you introduce yourself, the other person will typically do the same. Remember his or her name.
4. Initiate a get-together. You can chat your heart out but it won't get you a friend if you don't open up the opportunity for another conversation or meeting. This is especially important if you meet someone who you aren't otherwise likely to meet again. Seize the day!
* If you've discovered that the person you're talking to has a common interest, ask him or her more about it and, if appropriate, whether they get together with others (in a club, for example) to pursue this interest. If so, this is a perfect opportunity to ask about joining them. If you clearly express interest (when? where? can anyone come?) they'll probably invite you. If you have a club, band, church, etc. that you think they might enjoy, take the opportunity to give them your number or email address and invite them to join you.
* Ask them out for lunch or coffee. That will give you a better opportunity to talk and get to know each other a little bit better. A good way to extend yourself is to say: "Hey, well, I've got to go, but if you ever want to talk over lunch or coffee or anything like that, let me give you my number/e-mail address." This gives the person the opportunity to contact you; they may or may not give you their information in return, but that's fine. Maybe they don't have time for new friends—don't take it personally! Just offer your contact info to whoever seems to be potentially a good friend, and eventually somebody will get in touch.
* Don't do anything to pressure someone into being friends with you. Never chide acquaintances for failing to invite you to a party, for example; don't call someone repeatedly or stop by uninvited (unless you have established that stopping by unannounced is o.k.); and refrain from overstaying your welcome anywhere. In general, take friendship slowly, and don't try to force intimacy to grow quickly; the move from acquaintance to friend can take a long time. It's understandable to want more of a good thing, but try to err on the side of less. If you are not sure about the pace of your new friendship, check in with your friend and ask directly. Too much, too fast can be scary or intimidating, and not everybody is able to say "Slow down..." - instead, they may run the other way!
5. Be a good friend. Once you've started spending time with potential friends, remember to do your part (i.e. initiating some of the activities, remembering birthdays, asking how the other person is feeling) or else the friendship will become unbalanced and an uneasiness or distance is likely to arise.
* Be reliable. If you and your friend agree to meet somewhere, don't be late, and do not stand them up. If you're not going to make it on time or make it at all, call them as soon as you realize it. Apologize and ask to reschedule. Don't make them wait for you unexpectedly; it's rude, and it is certainly not a good way to launch a potential friendship. When you say you'll do something, do it. Be someone that people know that they can count on.
* Be a good listener. Many people think that in order to be seen as "friend material" they have to appear very interesting. Far more important than this, however, is the ability to show that you're interested in others. Listen carefully to what people say, remember important details about them (their names, their likes and dislikes), ask questions about their interests, and just take the time to learn more about them. You don't want to be the guy or girl that always has a better story than anyone else or that changes the subject abruptly instead of continuing the flow of conversation. These people appear too wrapped up in themselves to be good friends--"one-ups-man-ship" is a put down.
* Be trustworthy. One of the best things about having a friend is that you have someone to whom you can talk about anything, even secrets that you hide from the rest of the world. The key to being a good confidante is the ability to keep secrets, so it's no secret that you shouldn't tell other people things that were told to you in confidence. Before people even feel comfortable opening up to you, however, you need to build trust. Be honest about yourself and your beliefs, and don't gossip about others or spread rumors or they will think you like stories better than friends.
* Be there. You've probably heard of fair-weather friends. They're the ones who are happy to be around you when things are going well, but are nowhere to be found when you really need them. Part of being a friend is being prepared to make sacrifices of your time and energy in order to help out your friends. If a friend needs help with an unpleasant chore, or if he or she just needs a shoulder to cry on, be there.
6. Choose your friends wisely. As you befriend more people, you may find that some are easier to get along with than others. While you always give people the benefit of the doubt, sometimes you realize that certain friendships are unhealthy, such as if a person is obsessively needy or controlling towards you, constantly critical, or introducing dangers or threats into your life. If this is the case, ease your way out of the friendship as gracefully as possible. Preoccupy yourself with other things, such as a new volunteer opportunity, so that you can honestly say that you don't have enough time in your schedule to spend time with them (but don't substitute their time for time with other friends; they may notice and become jealous, and more drama will ensue). Cherish those friends you make who are a positive influence in your life, and do your best to be a positive influence in theirs.

Find Your Soulmate

Many people feel that there's one person out there who can enrich your life in a way that no one else can. If this is true, how can you increase your chances of finding this person? And when you meet him or her, how will you know it's your soulmate?
Soulmate & Love Readings
1. Be the person you would love to love. Instead of waiting for your soulmate to appear, make yourself the person you would like to find. Work on becoming the unique individual you're looking for. Just as you would want your soulmate to be comfortable in their own skin, work on just being yourself. You'll stand a better chance of getting noticed if you are comfortable, confident, and happy to be you. Expressing your individuality is the closest you can come to advertising your soulmate potential. Not only will you stand out, but you'll also be doing things that are more likely to bring you closer to your soulmate, who probably has similar interests and goals.
2. Remember that your soulmate might not be what you expect. If there's only one person in the world who can be your soulmate, what are the chances that they'll live in your town, look like the people you grew up with, or even speak the same language? Your soulmate does not have to live in the same country or even the same hemisphere as you. You don't have to be willing to span the globe for your true love, but you do need to be receptive to people with different backgrounds. Also, if you're expecting your soulmate to be love at first sight, you might never find what you're looking for. So keep an open mind. Part of the romance of having a soulmate is being pleasantly surprised.
3. Be patient. Life doesn't normally work on the schedule you envision. Your soulmate might cross your path when you're 8 or 80 years old. Don't be surprised either if there is a considerable age difference between the two of you. Yes, you might look forward to spending the majority of your life with your soulmate—perhaps buying a house, getting married, starting a family—but things do not always go as you plan. Your soulmate will color your world no matter how old you are, so don't rush into things, or else you might end up forcing the wrong person into the soulmate box, which will cause pain for everyone involved.
4. Accept people for who they are, not who you want them to be. When you've got all these fantasies flying around in your head about how wonderful and special your soulmate will be, it can be easy to look for those specific characteristics and features in anyone you get involved with. Unfortunately, unrealistic expectations can ruin a relationship, and might even chase your soulmate away. Whoever it is that you think might be your soulmate, appreciate their individuality and trust that if this person is your soulmate, they'll never need to change who they are for you, just like you'll never need to change who you are for them. That doesn't mean that you can't encourage them to try something new or help them to grow as a person, just don't force things on them that they are not comfortable with.
5. Weather the storms. Contrary to what popular media would have you believe, meeting your soulmate doesn't guarantee "happily ever after." Things won't get easier when you find that special someone, and in fact, they might get even harder. Ultimately, a soulmate is someone with whom you can grow, and the only way to grow together is to face challenges together. So if you put your heart and soul into a relationship, stick with it through the ups and downs, even when you question whether it's meant to be, and you might look back decades later and realize that you were with your soulmate all along. True love with your soulmate does not grow on its own: it must be cultivated and continually nurtured. So be lovable, and be willing to love like there is no tomorrow.

Define Love

“How on earth are you ever going to explain in terms of chemistry and physics so important a biological phenomenon as first love?”
— Albert Einstein

1. The dictionary defines love in several ways that we use the word. For example, love is:
1. A strong positive emotion of; affection or pleasure; e.g, "His love for his work." or "I love cooking."
2. Any object of warm affection or devotion or liking: "The theater was her first love". "I love French food".
3. Beloved: a beloved person; used as terms of endearment.
4. A deep feeling of sexual desire and attraction; e.g., "She was his first love" or "She loves her husband."
5. A score of zero in tennis or squash: "It was 40-love!"
6. Sexual love: sexual intercourse between two people. e.g. "They made love." "He hadn't had any love in months".
2. Love is characterized by the desire to want good things for that person no matter what. And you're willing to work out your problems together. And you can hardly breathe when you're around them. Even though you may see them all the time or hardly ever, it's as if you get that rush of what you felt when you got your first kiss.
3. The Greeks defined love in four categories:
1. Agape love is unconditional love. It is love by "choice" even if you are not pleased. A good example is "God loves us with our faults."
2. Phi Leo love is the love of "attraction" guided by our likes or our healthy or unhealthy needs and desires.
3. Storge is the word for family love and the physical show of "affection" the need for physical touch. Sometimes friendship that becomes physical love.WikiPedia:Storge
4. Eros is the physical "sexual" desire, intercourse. It is the root word of erotic, and eroticism.
4. Define love by thinking of what it means to you. Be bold and write down the feelings and thoughts you have about love.
5. Be aware of moments when you feel love towards anyone or anything.
6. Consider your motives, what are you each getting from the situation, especially if it is progressing too quickly.
7. Think about whether you'd feel the same way if the other person's looks were to change (is it just attraction).
8. Capture your feelings in metaphors, poetry or songs. "Love is like..."
9. Define love like a psychologist: love can be viewed as having three parts, triangularly. There are three key components:
1. Passion underlies physical desire, sexual behavior, and arousal. This is the physical side.
2. Intimacy is the emotional aspect: closeness, connectedness, and warmth of friendship.
3. Commitment is the decision-making part "CHOICE" of love; are couples willing to work it out?
10. Expressing love may start as flirting with smiles, winks and maybe even kissing, but it is usually infatuation at this point, approaching with curiosity by one or both parties. While time is usually spent looking to discover more about this intriguing person, much time will be spent pondering the many possibilities of what could happen, or the consequences that may become of a certain action, or on the other hand the good that may come of it.
11. Thrill as the person in love having little else of such interest in the real world, food may taste bland, concentrating has become a serious mental struggle and even fun pastimes may seem worthless, as pacing and walking or even simply sitting or lying while musing about the person seems a most engaging thing to do.
* This type of behavior can lead to serious disturbances at work and at home, especially if the person feeling love is already an item with somebody else with whom they may have shared these feelings at some time in the past.
12. Deeply in love--never scientifically proven to exist--it is thought that one can only be really in love with one person at a time. The part of the human being that is reserved for sharing with another (which some may call the soul, or the heart) is used up while dedicating itself to that one source, and that it is impossible to feel the overwhelming feeling of love in two sources: "twice-at-once" sounds impossible!
* Although similar, love is thought not to be like pain which has definite locations; it is thought that it can move around, although usually it will reside in the lower stomach or the bottom of the throat, with sensitive areas like the temples and the legs and joints feeling stressed and weak. The mouth is often dry and the eyes seem strained, and this is all usually given the diagnosis of love sickness, or in some cases where love isn't present, influenza.
13. Endure for a time. Time does seem to be the only healer in the case of lost love. The full connection of two loving parties (mutually) could lead to a stronger relationship, and developments such as procreation and marriage; but in the case of a single party or the rejection of the first party by the second, or even in the case of a secret love, being in love will usually only fade after the interest is out of sight and out of mind, or gives full closure to the pursuer.
14. Love forever (especially in literature)--it is forever. No matter how much time passes by, or what obstacles become present in the path to true and pure love, love will endure. This may be far fetched from reality, but many find it to be a preferable way to think.
* Although this may be a much more joyous belief to have of love, there are also those situations where love does fail. This can be easily said to have been due to false love of mistaken identity between persons (as lovers are star crossed and are meant to find each other). Either way, the difference between feeling love and not feeling it is a distinct one, and cannot be mistaken. It is a true sickness that is present and can be more crippling than the flu, depression and many other illnesses combined.
* Love can cause war; in the cases of love of religion and the love of money; war can cause people to steal and murder, it can lead to suicide and shatter marriage and family life, it can spread disease and give birth to evil; but love is eternal and cannot be eliminated, it is what makes people human. "I think therefore I am" may also be translated as "I love therefore I am".
15. Allow yourself to think so you may choose why, where and when to find your life partner not just for simple breeding or survival of the fittest, but in order for developing and choosing as human beings not just feeling beings.
16. Share your love and spread it on through new generations, so while love lasts eternally, your mark upon humanity is also forever through your children and children's children; you make your mark by your genetic codes, understandings and teachings continuing--passed on and developed forevermore!
* This eternal possibility is a gift, not just dedication; you have to choose as we were born with conscientiousness, not like animals who only have instinct.
* Desire is the want of more and is unfillable, not to be confused with Love which is joy and contentment.

Show Your Love

Showing our love towards those who deserve it is an art. When you know it's real, or maybe pure enough to be shown, you have to know how to show it.
1. Be yourself. Don't play roles and don't try to act like the cliché lovers you've seen in movies or shows. Play your own music when it comes to showing love.
2. Use as few words as possible. Let your love shine through your actions and behaviors.
3. Try to be unpredictable.You can make him/her think you're not enthusiastic about something he/she likes, and then surprise him/her by doing something about it at the most unexpected time.
4. Make a small unexpected comment or sentence about your own feelings at an appropriate time that is also emotionally penetrative, especially with a tone showing you're not waiting for a response.
5. Remember what you've said and in fact claimed. Your actions are going to prove or disprove it and he/she is waiting to see whether you keep your word or not.
6. Think and act spontaneously, Do be prepared (like you're reading this), but don't exactly pre-plan anything.
7. Use the circumstances coming up to show your love. When you do it during a normal talk or in normal situations, it won't impress him/her. It will be sort of cliché. So use the situations that come up. When you choose circumstances to show your love, it's like you pick a tool for doing it and believe me:it's a good tool.
8. Show your love to others by showing your love for what they really like or to what interests them. This is another impressive tool. Learn how to use it.
9. Some people recognize or show love in different ways. For example, some people may show their love by kissing and touching, while another person may show love by doing things or just having quality time with the one they love.

It's Time To Say I Love You

Although many people use this powerful phrase loosely, there are times when you want to say "I love you" in a meaningful way. Whether you're professing your love to a romantic partner or expressing it to a relative or friend, it can be difficult to convey how much they really mean to you. But by keeping the following suggestions in mind, hopefully your love will not only be understood, but it will also be welcomed and returned.
1. Define love The sincerity of the phrase is strengthened by knowing what love is, and what loving someone means to you. Determine the difference between love, infatuation and lust, and make sure it's genuine love that you feel for this person.
2. Make it special. For many people, dropping the "I" allows the sentiment to be expressed casually, such as before separating (e.g. "Time to go. Bye! Love you!"). Using the full phrase, however, can be reserved for more intimate moments, especially during a special event, such as when a child is just born, or even to reassure someone when bad news has been received or during moments of cherished silence, like after a kiss.
3. Make eye contact. If you love this person, hopefully you feel comfortable enough to gaze into their eyes when you express your feelings. Making eye contact shows sincerity and communicates trust.
4. Say it at an appropriate tone. If you're at home and there's not much background noise, keep your volume low; don't whisper unless you bring your lips to their ear, which can also be a very intimate way to express your love. If you want to tell them how you feel in public, it's up to you whether you want to pull the person aside, or say it in front of friends or even strangers. It depends on your loved one's personality, and your own personality. Some will find it terribly romantic to be told they're loved across a room full of people; others may find it mortifying.
5. Smile. It can be nerve-wracking to tell someone that you love him or her, only to wait anxiously for their response--especially if it's the first time either of you have verbally expressed love. The best way to overcome this fear is to not expect the phrase in return. Your intention can be to tell the person how you feel, with the hope of making them happy and showing them that they are valued. Remember that unconditional love means not demanding anything in return. So smile, and perhaps give your loved one a hug. If they love you, too, they'll say it in their own way and in their own time.
6. Be creative. Say it in different languages. Write it into a poem or even a haiku. If you want to be romantic, spell it out with rose petals on his or her bedroom floor. Write it in code, like a Vigènere cipher. Say it in little ways, like post-it notes in unexpected places, and express it in every way you can.
7. Love. Don't just say it, do it. Love is not just a feeling; it's an action. Saying it without showing it is, in a way, a lie. Express your love in action as well as in words.

Wolverine ( My Fave Hero )

Wolverine is a fictional character, a superhero that appears in comic books published by Marvel Comics. The character first appeared in Incredible Hulk #180 (October 1974) and was created by writer Len Wein and Marvel art director John Romita Sr., who designed the character, and was first drawn for publication by Herb Trimpe.Wolverine later joined the X-Men's "All New, All Different" roster in Giant-Size X-Men #1 (May 1975). In May 2008, Wolverine was ranked #1 out of "Wizard Magazine's Top 200 Comic Book Characters of All Time" and was ranked #4 of "The 50 Greatest Comic Book Characters" by Empire Magazine in July 2008. X-Men writer Chris Claremont played a significant role in the character's subsequent development as well as artist/writer John Byrne, who insisted on making the character older than the other X-Men. Artist Frank Miller collaborated with Claremont and helped to revise the character with a four-part eponymous limited series from September to December 1982 in which Wolverine's catch phrase, "I'm the best there is at what I do, but what I do isn't very nice," debuted.

Born James Howlett and commonly known as Logan, Wolverine is a mutant, possessing animal-keen senses, enhanced physical capabilities, retracting bone claws, and a healing factor that allows him to quickly recover from virtually any wound, disease or toxin, enabling him to live beyond a normal human lifespan. This healing ability enabled the supersoldier program Weapon X to bond the near indestructible metal alloy adamantium to his skeleton and claws. Wolverine was typical of the many tough anti-authority anti-heroes that emerged in American popular culture after the Vietnam War; his willingness to use deadly force and his brooding nature became standard characteristics for comic book anti-heroes by the end of the 1980s. As a result, the character became the clear favorite for fans of the increasingly popular X-Men franchise. Wolverine has been featured in his own solo comic since 1988 and has been a central character in every X-Men adaptation, including animated television series, video games, and the live-action 20th Century Fox X-Men film series, in which he is played by Hugh Jackman.

Love

Love is any of a number of emotions and experiences related to a sense of strong affection^[1] and attachment. The word love can refer to a variety of different feelings, states, and attitudes, ranging from generic pleasure to intense interpersonal attraction. The word love is both a verb and a noun. Love is not a single feeling but an emotion built from two or more feelings. Anything vital to us creates more than one feeling, and we also have feelings about our feelings (and thoughts about our feelings)[1]. This diversity of uses and meanings, combined with the complexity of the feelings involved, makes love unusually difficult to consistently define, even compared to other emotional states.

As an abstract concept, love usually refers to a deep, ineffable feeling of tenderly caring for another person. Even this limited conception of love, however, encompasses a wealth of different feelings, from the passionate desire and intimacy of romantic love to the nonsexual emotional closeness of familial and platonic love^[2] to the profound oneness or devotion of religious love.^[3] Love in its various forms acts as a major facilitator of interpersonal relationships and, owing to its central psychological importance, is one of the most common themes in the creative arts.
