I have landed here after a journey long. Using my systems I have managed to log into your internet and I surf for long time. I learnt your language. I seen your people.You are strange.

There is so much weapons here, so many violence and I am scared to make contact with people of this world. There not much compassion here. They make jokes and have music but they also kill people and make people work all day long like slaves. On my world we live in luxury and share everything and everyone happy. There no violence or big battles.

Please could you help. Will I be welcomed or will they use me to test? I surf and I see on net that they want to do test on people from other worlds.

I cannot return to my world for 1,423,765 days because that is when next photon belt arrive.

I need next meal soon. Please help.

Perhaps you do not realize that rap music is, aside from jazz, the only true american musical art from of the 20th century? That rock&roll and punk, opera, electronic, are all musical genres that are european imports. That rock itself has borrowed liberally from earlier music made by the American Negroes, namely jazz and blues. If you are a conservative, and you strive to be more American, you should immerse yourself in Rap, because rap is purely american; its viberance, its energy, its raw talent and impromptu nature, its youth, are all characteristics that exemplify the United States itself. What an amazing art form!

painful morose memories
once took the life and air i breathe
wandering in the long dark corridors
there's no one here to hold my hand
take me away from this hell
who will come to save my life
i'm lost and alone
losing my footing and falling again
the world laughs at my demise
but he was there to pick me up
bandage my wrists and take away my pain
turned me around and gave me hope
not a slave to the bottle
the pills or the knife
i find myself here wearing white
holding his hands and saying i do
i hear him telling me
beautiful angel all in white
look at the stars that once cried for you
a ghost in the pale moonlight
you faded in and out of life
here you are now
the rose that was trampled
revived by the rain one trying night
hold on now
you are so close
just hang on tight
don't you know....
you were the one who gave me hope...

Chapter 1

“No! I will not stay here and deal with her! We live like such fools! Forget your regrets about the divorce! I’m not going to come running to you either! I’m leaving for good!” Candace yelled into the receiver.

“Well, you’re going to have to stay, whether you like it or not. What is your other choice?” Mr. Timmons insisted in a frustrated tone. He was becoming increasingly impatient with Candace and her demands.

“I have had it with both you and Mom! I am just going to leave!” she screamed. She slammed the receiver down on the desk.

Her face, as swollen as a bad mosquito bite, wrote a story of anger and tearful disappointment. Candace felt betrayed by her father’s refusal to allow her to live on her own in apartment, or else, take her into his home. The predominant coldness of her mother had finally pushed her to the cliff’s edge. Leaning over precariously while looking down at the valley below, she thought about jumping off sometimes. Her desire to get out of her living situation seemed stronger than ever. She was putting her escape plans into effect. Thanks heavens I probably won’t be staying here much longer. I can go stay with Dad or Auntie and really work on my paintings.

Her hazel eyes met with her mother’s cold steel blue eyes. Candace stared right through her, as if she were a mirage instead of a desert oasis. A righteous rage penetrated her mother slowly, but she chose to ignore her interests as usual. Warning, symbols and body language meant little to her because of her emotional vacancy.

“So I guess you will be happy now. You’ve finally got what you wanted. Don’t bother to say goodbye and I will see my way out,” Candace announced coolly. You always use people and then pretend that you didn’t do anything to them, or that you’re really sorry about your actions.

Mrs. Timmons hardly looked up from her spot. She jerked to the right in her chair for some reason, maybe from shock. Candace couldn’t really tell what was going on in her mind. She waited for a response from her mother. Finally, Mrs. Timmons took a deep breath and let out an exasperated sigh.

“Fine. Leave the keys with me. Take what you need and nothing else,” Mrs. Timmons responded icily, as she crossed her arms over her chest. She stared at the floor instead of raising her head to look at her daughter.

“Well, you always get what you want now, don’t you? One way or another, you manage to manipulate my life. Sometimes I can’t even believe what you’ve managed to get away with. If Dad only knew the whole story,” she moaned as she trailed off, twisting her left fingers into her hair.

Mrs. Timmons defiantly looked away for a moment. She took a deep breath while her eyes moved back and forth from one side of the room to the other. Candace waited for her to say that last comment she usually made whenever they disagreed. I’m not the one who has to win the arguments, she thought to herself.

“Well, do what you want. You are always full of nonsense. Just go pack up your things and leave then, if you’re not happy. It’s not like I want to hold you up,” she announced coldly after a few minutes had passed.

“Fine.” Candace retorted without hesitation. I won’t waste my time on someone who doesn’t care, because if I wanted to, I would stay.

She furiously fled out of the living room. Rushing across the hall, she headed for the far staircase. Since she had lost this round of gunfire, she decided that she would no longer fight in this war of words between her mother and her father. Her intention was to leave this house, once and for all. This time, her determination to leave seemed genuine.

Her strawberry-blonde hair flew through the air in streams as she nearly catapulted herself out of the room. Her mother and sisters stared behind her as she made her way out. She was always the first and last one in the room to make a scene. Her mother put her book down on the side table, got up out of her rocking chair and walked to the middle of the Persian carpet that lined the hardwood floor. She watched as her eldest daughter stomped up the stairs to her room on the third floor.

“Don’t bother saying goodbye! I don’t want to see you ever again!” she yelled down the stairs as she crossed the loft into her room. There was no response. Her words echoed through the entire house.

The usual realization of her indifference caused little grief to Candace, since she had spent years putting up with her mother’s attempts at using her to get more money out of her father. They had been divorced since she was eleven. Their separation wasn’t unpleasant, and neither was their marriage. Her father was simply a classic workaholic. He stayed at the office till 8 p.m. or later on a typical weeknight. This Friday, she managed to get a hold of him before 9 p.m. That was unusual for her.

Initially, she had hoped her mother might actually respond in her favor. As usual, her dreams were dashed. She had decided to just hang up without saying anything else to her father. Her father didn’t make most of the decisions simply because he wasn’t around. Because of his lack of involvement, she had put up with her mother’s meddling for years.

Tears rolled down her eyes as she stormed up the stairs to the attic above. Her temper was like a brooding tempest that waited in the outer edges of the horizon, closing in slowly on a warm, clear sky. She continuously shocked all the members of her family with her outbursts. They could never predict how, when or why she would let her demons loose.

The bedroom door slammed behind her. She dropped onto her bed, placed her head on her pillows for a moment, then let out a sigh. She rested there for a few minutes. Then exasperation took over, so she decided to take a quick shower.

As she stripped each layer of clothing and placing them in a pile on the bathroom floor, she slid into the hot shower she had just started. Quickly she lathered up the soap and began washing herself. The warm water rinsed away her salty tears that had started streaming down her cheeks. She was relieved to be upstairs, just so that she could avoid crying in front of her mother. Mrs. Timmons had disapproved of any public display of emotion.

This was one of the many so-called attributes of hers that annoyed Candace greatly. As polar opposites, they didn’t have much in common to begin with. She wasn’t obsessed with clothes, but her mother had to have the finest designer clothing from all the expensive shops downtown.

As a child, she had been fascinated occasionally by a beautiful dress for a special occasion, but as soon as she hit her teens, she started buying baby doll dresses and seventies-style clothing from old thrift shops or else, the mall. Once in a while she went to a large boutique when they had a sale, but she didn’t shop on a daily basis. Her mother was nearly addicted to high fashion and had racked up huge bills every month. When she realized the allowance wasn’t enough to pay for all the items she bought, she went to court to demand more money. At one point, she even had to take out a second mortgage just to pay off her credit line. She had read their files, budget plans and online portfolio.

She thought about these details as she washed and conditioned her hair. She let the water rinse her thoroughly, then finally stood in the shower for a while just to feel the warm water fall on her body. She thought that was a sensual experience of sorts. She wasn’t a virgin anymore, so she was fascinated by every opportunity to experience some kind of sexual or sensual pleasure.

Finally, she got out of the shower, brushed out her hair and dried off her body with a towel. For a moment, she looked at herself in the mirror. She was thankful that her appearance was so different from her mother. With her light reddish blonde hair and dark hazel eyes, she resembled her patriarchal grandmother far more than the woman who gave birth to her. With the release of a sigh, she picked up a tube of concealer. As she dotted the makeup over her circles, she started examining the situation.

Candace had wanted out of the family for a long time. The only members she got along with, other than her little sisters, were her aunts and uncles. Her grandparents had passed during the first nine years of her childhood. She figured she would go stay with them for awhile, since they would not mention that she was staying with them. They lived six hours away along the coast. During her teenage years, she had tossed around the idea of running away, which seemed glamorous and wild.

Occasionally, she read the newspaper. One of the featured stories might mention teenagers arrested by police officers, kids in juvenile hall, and occasionally, something about kids on the street. She had decided against such an existence. Now she was older. Her main focus now was to get off this battlefield of anger, simmering discontent and veiled hostility. She would not wear a mask of calmness over her anger like her mother.

Kindness in his eyes, so don’t think twice
Kindness in his eyes, so don’t think twice
Just tell him why Just tell him why
The magic lingers when he walks in the room
As he lifts you up to the sky
Just tell him there’s no reason why
So natural more than coincidental

If it’s not love, then it’s black magic
Don’t you think so? Don’t you think so?
Just ask him just ask him just ask him
If it’s not love, then it must be more than
The weight of two heart’s gravity
Magnetism maybe but it’s black magic to me

Blindness in your mind, you look only with your eyes
Blindness leads you to the dark
Beneath grey late summer skies
When the night comes early
And the coming rains look stark
Just ask him why Just ask him why
When he lifts you up in his arms, ask him why

If it’s not love, then what must it be
Seems like black magic to me
Dancing around the circle
If it’s not love, then it must be
Black magic black magic to me

Looks are more than a language
More than intimacy
The soul lingers more than pointed fingers
More than just a dead old fantasy
Sounds like black magic to me

More than love more than love
Brings the two of you together
Maybe destiny maybe

If it’s not love, black magic brings you together

A girl friend of mine whos' a photographer in a model agency. Recently, she look me up as she wants me to be her 'model'. I agreed at first as I thought its just taking normal pics. But when I reached her studio she work with, she told me to strip off everything. I was shocked and asked her why. She says she was going to take nude pics for me for an exhibition... (Of course is those picture without 'head') I did not agree her and did not reject her. I just told her I wasn't prepared and need time to consider. Any advice? Should I do it or not? There's some payment which is quite interesting too. And she promise she will return me the negative back which I fully trusted her on.

I know there are a lot of studies that claim average intelligence is higher in men, but what about creativity. If you look at the past, nearly in all artistic fields they have been mostly made up of men. One could argue this was because of more opportunities, but many famous artists did not have opportunities at all, they made their own with their art. In art, film, music, almost all of the major faces in the field are men. Has anyone ever studied the physiological side of this?
