English poem #?

Living in disguise
I'm walking in the midst of the night
and the phantom approaches me sayin'
"Forgive your brothers for all their sins they've done
They'll crave for what's left and what's gone
Only if you avoid them all"

Left out in my shadow
I see the living world suffering
My self-esteem blew
Hurtin' every single bone and soul

I close my eyes
Pretending I'm fine
Fact is, I ain't what I am anymore

Slammin' down the phone
I felt life much easier on me
Take me away
I am no longer in my usual state of mind

Please forgive me
I'm leavin' this crazy world for the rest of you
I don't wanna know whatever happens
I'm an angel in disguise...

reenacted 2001, created 1997

Symantec Identifies “Dirtiest Web Sites of Summer 2009” Norton Safe Web Uncovers the Top 100 Infected Web Sites CUPERTINO , Calif. – Aug. 19, 2009 – For many of us, being online is simply a part of everyday life—whether shopping, banking, or connecting with family and friends. But with the seemingly endless reach of the Internet, how can you tell which sites are safe to visit and which may try to deceive you, steal your personal information or crash your computer? Symantec (Nasdaq: SYMC) has identified the “Dirtiest Web Sites of Summer 2009,” the 100 sites with the most threats detected by site ratings service Norton Safe Web as of August 2009. These sites represent the “worst of the worst” based on the number of threats detected by Norton Safe Web. It comes as no surprise that 48 percent of the Dirtiest Web Sites are, well, dirty— sites that feature adult content. However, the remainder of the list runs the gamut of subject matter, including sites dedicated to deer hunting, cater...

Understanding Dreams

Bumped onto this while browsing the 'Net http://news.yahoo.com/s/time/20090616/hl_time/08599190456100 Wish Fulfillment? No. But Dreams (and Sleep) Have Meaning Buzz Up Send Email IM Share Delicious Digg Facebook Fark Newsvine Reddit StumbleUpon Technorati Yahoo! Bookmarks Print Play Video Video:Get Your Zzzs FOX News By TIFFANY SHARPLES Tiffany Sharples – Tue Jun 16, 4:15 am ET Dreams may not be the secret window into the frustrated desires of the unconscious that Sigmund Freud first posited in 1899, but growing evidence suggests that dreams - and, more so, sleep - are powerfully connected to the processing of human emotions. According to new research presented last week at the annual meeting of the Associated Professional Sleep Societies in Seattle, adequate sleep may underpin our ability to understand complex emotions properly in waking life. "Sleep essentially is resetting the magnetic north of your emotional compass," says Matthew Walker, director of the Sleep and N...

A novel review: L.U.V.E.

By -
of ... confessions (pingu Toha's L.U.V.E. novel review) Why is it so hard to express your utmost true feelings to another person closest to you (be it your parents, best friend(s), worst enemy or a most loved/adored/admired/respected person)? Why is it much easier to express it to a non-human being, e.g. your pet(s), diary, voice recorder, wall  (I'm not talking about  facebook 's or any social networks' wall) , etc.? Feelings and confessions. They are  something . Something that is not taught in schools, but is often  discussed  - a discourse, may it be an open discussion or a closed one; feelings are exchanged from one person to another, or perhaps even to other alternatives such as the aforementioned.  L.U.V.E.  Confessions of lovers' experiences in love (and out of love). Fictitious or not, it is up to the reader to judge. A good read nonetheless. Comical and it is surprisingly ironic that there are people like the characters in the novel - reaching out and tryi...
