With confirmation of element 117, people are speculating about possible names. Would Nobel-Prize winning physicist Richard Feynman be a good choice?
Changing faces with a smile - Operation Smile (Original ) #talita
Quote:
Have you met Talita? An amazing little girl who sees her smile for the first time after cleft lip surgery.
People ask me why I volunteer overseas so much... It takes my eyes off me and allows me to remember what life is all about. When we use what we have been given [[whatever that might be) to make a positive change for our world, that's when life make sense.... In a time when the world seems to be imploding with greed, there are certain things that will always remain invaluable..like the smile on this girls face when she realizes her life will be changed forever.
Her life has impacted mine as I have hers..but that's what it's all about..both being happier because the miracle of life allowed us to cross one another's paths and leave each other in a better place because we met. Without judgment.
Her lip is still swollen and painful as she is only 24 hours post surgery but the joy in her eyes is unmistakable and makes my heart laugh without measure. I hope it brings the same to you.
See what you can do to help... Support Operation Smile and help change lives forever.
Thank you EMI and Sony for releasing a license to allow this video to continue to uplift all who see it..
Soundtrack: KT Tunstall - Suddenly I See.
When this video first vanished, I had given up hope it would ever return. I confess I was more than a bit angry since it's only a charitable cause rather than commercial.
But it's back! With an update too!
Lost Cities of the Ancients 3 The Dark Lords of Hattusha
Total duration 59 minutes:
Quote:
12:15: [Archeologists] called the city Hattusha, in the land of Hatti. They called its people the Hittites, even though they were completlely different to the famous Hittites of the Bible....
Hattusha was home to more than 50,000 people....
But ancient Hattusha did have one wonderful treasure just waiting to be discovered by archeologists. Not gold or jewels, but something far more precious. Hidden away in a labyrinth of rooms were five enormous libraries. in them, beautifully files and cataloged were 30,000 tablets. It was one of the largest and oldest libraries ever discovered....
The breakthrough surprised everyone. It meant Hittite was not a middle eastern language as everyone expected but was an Indo-Euroean language just like English. The Hittites were unlike all their rivals in the ancient world, because they were not from the middle east but from some part of Europe. The Hittites must have migrated to Turkey....
The Egyptians claimed victory but we now know from the texts found in Hattusha that, in fact, the Hittites had won the war....
The archives seem to run out right before the end. There's nothing that sheds any light on the very last days of the empire....
The civil war spiraled out of control.
The Hittites then simply abandoned Hattusha.
Any debunking is graciously appreciated.
This 77-year-old grandma can lift more than you

See what a day at the gym is like with Willie Murphy, a 77-year-old power lifter and grandmother. Video by Lauren Petracca for the Democrat and Chronicle.
One important point unmentioned in the video is how weight training prevents the catastophic hazards of osteoporosis in elderly women. Bone mineral density is increased by weight training. It also makes everyday life surprisingly easy. Heavy doors become as light as sheets of paper.
The key is to start small with minimum weights, then slowly, gradually, relentlessly increase the weights over time.
