Information is not knowledge,

We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them,

Favorite People

Nicholas Roerich

The pursuit of refinement and beauty was sacred for Roerich. He believed that although earthly temples and artifacts may perish, the thought that brings them into existence does not die but is part of an eternal stream of consciousness — man's aspirations nourished by his directed will and by the energy of thought. Finally, he believed that peace on Earth was a prerequisite to planetary survival and the continuing process of spiritual evolution, and he exhorted his fellow man to help achieve that peace by uniting in the common language of Beauty and Knowledge.

I'm Libra

The Libra person is cooperative, diplomatic, open-minded, urbane, fair, partnership-oriented, avoids conflict, easy-going, even-tempered, strong, refined, balanced, leader, graceful, artistic, home-body, charming, debating, flexible, sensual, idealistic, equalitarian and sociable.

I'm Blue (Wood) Horse

Friendly, cooperative and less impatient, Wood Horse could be the most reasonable of the lot. But he will still resist being dominated. The Wood element enables him to discipline his mind better and he will be capable of clear and systematic thinking.
The Wood Horse will have a happy disposition and be very active in social affairs. Amusing and a good conversationalist, he is not overly egoistical and will not constantly vie for the headlines.
But, as he is progressive, modern and unsentimental, he will throw out the old and welcome in the new. Changes and new inventions capture his imagination and he will not shrink from trying the unconventional.
He will like to explore many other fields but will try hard to fulfill his responsibilities first. The strong, high-spirited and sanguine Wood Horse does not have a lazy bone in his body, but he would do well to learn to be more cautious and discerning.

My Blood Type is "O"

People with blood type O are outgoing, energetic and social. They are the most flexible of the blood types. They easily start up projects but often have trouble following through because they give up easily. They are flighty and not too dependable. O types always say what's on their mind. They value the opinion of others and like to be the center of attention. Also, people with O blood are extremely self-confident.

Capillaries hold key to character

The existence in unicorns has been questioned since ancient times. There is a legend that said he was the animal first named by Adam in the garden of Eden and the one most beloved. When Adam and Eve were expelled from Eden, the unicorn was given the choice to stay in the garden and never die, or to go out into the world with man where death, and all the other tribulations of the real world would occur. It hesitated only a moment before choosing to follow Adam and Eve, and in doing so, it too became destined to a future marked by human greed, treachery, and exploitation.

Japanese Unicorn

The Japanese unicorn, or Kirin, could detect guilt and would punish the guilty with death. The idea of a one-homed creature became so solid a fixture in predicting births and deaths and served as a warning that the guilty will surely be punished. Whatever the reasons, the unicorn was an important part of oriental culture.
In China and Japan the k'i-lin is a solitary animal who walks with measured tread though some say the k'i-lin skips. The male is called the k'i, while the female is the lin. No one knows for sure how the unicorn was born, but some say the k'i-lin sprang from the center of the earth.

Unicorn Magic

Unicorns were thought to have magical abilities that enabled them to escape from tall enclosures, but of all the things they can do, it seems we are most fascinated by their power to heal. For the touch of a unicorn's horn can pull us away from death, toward immortality. Unfortunately for the unicorn, the horn retains its power even without a unicorn attached which has led people to hunt it rather ferociously. (Though some people also believe there is a precious jewel, a "carbuncle," hidden underneath the horn)

Traditional Unicorn

The unicorn is a legendary creature embodied like a horse, but slender and with a single - usually spiral - horn growing out of its forehead (whence its name - cornum being Latin for 'horn'). Though the popular image of the unicorn is that of a white horse differing only in the horn, the traditional unicorn has a billy-goat beard, a lion's tail, and cloven hoofs, which distinguish him from a horse. Interestingly, these modifications make the horned ungulate more realistic, since only cloven-hoofed animals have horns. Marianna Mayer has observed, "The unicorn is the only fabulous beast that does not seem to have been conceived out of human fears. In even the earliest references he is fierce yet good, selfless yet solitary, but always mysteriously beautiful. He could be captured only by unfair means, and his single horn was said to neutralize poison."

Birthday by Marc Chagall

Marc Chagall occupied a unique place in world art. Even though at times he was slighly influenced by the contemporary developments in arts (as when he discovered Cubism, for example), throughout his long life he was an independent artist. The sources of his inspiration are found in his childhood, in the life of a provincial city of Vitebsk and its Jewish community, the Scriptures, and, more surprisingly, Russian folk art and icon painting.

1) ABSTAIN from the Eating and Wearing of beasts
2) AVOID the Exploitation of all living creatures
3) Tread lightly upon the Earth for the benefit of People, Environment and Animals
4) Seek out Health and Happiness
5) With Knowledge comes Responsibility disperse it wisely
6) Vegducation is salvation - spare no one
7) Seek out the truth - The Sharpest Sword
8) Spread Chocolate generously - especially on Loved ones
9) See, Hear, Listen, Smell, Touch, Think - Taste Nature's Force
10) Shine brightly and Illuminate the World - Pity those swimming the Wrong Way for they may drown.

Unicorn Eve

The unicorn wandered, looking everywhere,
Investigating for faint clues that had some worth.
She raised her head listening by that silent pool
For the sounds of other unicorns on this earth.
Thoughtless mankind had polluted their virgin woods.
Evil men had murdered them for their golden horn.
Was she the last representative of her line?
Sadly, hopelessly, wandered that lonely unicorn.
Would the unicorn finally become extinct?
Yet another species destroyed by human greed?
She explored throughout the earth looking for her mate.
They could reestablish unicorns with her seed.

Unicorns like and need privacy, open spaces, and clean environment for survival. Unicorns walk in a graceful and delicate manner, carefully placing each foot down in such a way as to avoid trampling on flowers, small insects, or other animals. They will sometimes make large detours in order to avoid confrontations with other more belligerent creatures. When in a hurry they trot, and when frightened they gallop. Besides trotting, they are also able to make unusually long jumps when running. These may cover as much as twenty feet and enable them to cross small rivers or roads without getting wet or leaving footprints.
