I'm a U.S. citizen, and this is something that puzzles me at least twice a year. The solstices are usually mentioned on the radio, on the news on television and in newspapers. The media--and our citizens--are always saying that June 21, for instance, is the beginning of summer. By my logic, it's the middle of summer, and the beginning came 1 1/2 months before. On what some call the cross-quarter days.
Apparently, most of the world does consider solstices and equinoxes as the middle of seasons. Hence Shakespeare's play, "A Midsummer Night's Dream". Which would then refer to the Summer Solstice, probably on June 21 or June 22, by our calendar.

When I turn the engine off, it takes at least an hour to turn back on. Sometimes it doesn't though. It seems to have a mind of it's own. It only has 40,000 miles on it. Also, I know when it is not going to start up right away when I turn the engine off, the doors will not automatically unlock. It also makes a strange clicking sound when I run the car. People tell me it might be the computer in the car. Does anyone know what this might be and how much it might cost. I don't think it is the starter, because the problem has been a couple of months.

When it rains, in the spring or maybe the summer for the first time, why does the air almost smell metalic?

I think he might be. He knows I have a boyfriend. Then he emailed me asking me if I had fun at the movies with my boyfriend over the weekend? It's odd because I hang out in areas he doesn't usually frequent because I know he lives an hour away. He always griped about gas prices and I was always the one to drive out to his place.
He says he often sees me driving on the freeway, or at the mall, and at the movies. I find that strange because I'm a people watcher and don't recall ever seeing him around me.
How else would he know I have a bf? Or that I was at the movies, or what movie I saw for that matter? It's really starting to freak me out. Is he stalking me? Should I get a restraining order?

Ihad a Miscarriage June 29th at 4weeks...I got pregnant again to my surprise in July...I’m 8 weeks now and yesterday I notice light pink discharge...I’m freaking out because I'm terrified of having another miscarriage...I wasn’t prepared to get pregnant again so soon but I still hope for a healthy baby and I'm scared I will go thought the same thing......
I only had the discharge for about 3 hours then it went away and I haven’t seen any today? Has this happened to anyone else?

Don't know much about jazz but I know what I like.
Charles Mingus
John Coltrane
Soweto Kinch
Wayne Shorter
Herbie Hancock
Miles Davis
That's the kind of jazz I like, can anyone recommend me some similar stuff? Preferably the less obvious stuff as I might already have some of that.

Continued! Take kindly the counsel of the years gracefully surrendering the things of youth. Nurture the strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and lonliness.Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you concieve Him to be; and whatever your labours and aspirations, in the noisy confussions of life, keep peace with your soul. With all its shams, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. "Be chearful! and Strive to be happy! " written in 1927. by Max Ehrmann.all rights reserved.

...really the "inside!" Which would mean our "center" of consciousness is really the "outside" of everything...Which means "love" would be the most important thing, right?!?
Because what would be the best thing to have as the "outside" of everything?
"Love, right?!?" (see my logic chain?)

If we, as a nation of lawful and just people, want to reduce the number of people coming into the U.S. to work and send money home to their families. Our government need to start helping our closest neighboring countries to strengthen their government with fair elections and their economies with more commerce. With all the money the U.S. is spending to free Iraq, which doesn't want to help itself, we could promote business relations and jobs in these countries so the people there will not be forced to break immigration laws to feed themselves.
