Lets be environmentally responsible...
Lately I've been reading a lot about global warming, rainforest destruction and some other alarming environmental issues. This made me realize that there aren't enough of people in the community carying about simple things like recycling garbage and just be environmentally responsible in their common day of living and that's really to sad. Because I do believe we all can do a difference with our actions in preserving this planet for a future generation, even though it sometimes may not seem or feel so. A few ways you can help save 'mother earth' and be environmentally responsible:
-
Recycle everything you can; newspapers, cans, glass bottles and jars, aluminum foil, motor oil, scrap metal, etc.
-
Try to use phosphate-free laundry and dish soaps.
-
Use cold water in the washer whenever possible.
-
Don't use electrical appliances for things you can easily do by hand, like opening cans.
-
Store food in re-usable containers, instead of plastic wrap or aluminum foil.
-
Don't leave water running needlessly. Install a water-saving shower head.
-
Lower your thermostat by one degree per hour for every hour you'll be away or asleep. If you are freezing wear a sweater.
-
Turn off the lights, TV, or other electrical appliances when you're out of a room.
Other things you can have in mind for example when you're shopping... avoid buying food or household products in plastic or styrofoam containers whenever possible. They can't be recycled, and don't break down in the environment. Think twice about buying 'disposable' products. They really aren't disposable and are extravagant wastes of the world's resources. Buy paper products instead of plastic if you must buy 'disposables'. They break down better in the environment and don't deplete the ozone layer as much. Check the energy rating of major appliances you purchase. Buy only the most energy-efficient models. Ask questions... don't buy products, such as styrofoam, that are hazardous to the environment or manufactured at the expense of important habitats such as rainforests. Buy locally-grown food and locally-made products when possible. Don't buy products made from endangered animals.

Global water conference...
The World Water Week conference opened in Stockholm on Monday. This week's conference gathers some 1,200 experts from 100 countries until Friday. Water management issues must be an integral part of sustainable development and ought to be adapted to take specific country situations into account. Some 1.4 billion people in the world, primarily in Asia and Africa, have no access to clean water while 2.6 billion have no basic sanitary system, according to Jamal Saghir, the head of water issues at the World Bank. Three million children die each year because they have no clean drinking water. Water management should be seen as a key to fighting poverty and promoting economic growth and therefore must be synonymous with sustainable development. I think it's good that the World Bank will not grant loans to projects that don't respect the rules of international development... which will stress the importance of prioritizing the funding of supply services over infrastructures. According to our swedish Environment Minister, focus on long-term goals is not the only thing that is needed in this case. Democracy is also an important aspect and women must be involved in this progress. It's also important to stress that a country's level of development must be considered when finding solutions. The Western model is not necessarily the best solution for other countries. Access to clean fresh water is truly a growing problem and future wars may be fought over water resources. While sixty-three hundred people in the world die every day from lack of water (International WILPF), we in the western world keep using water as it would be something lasting forever and not use our brain to both think of the future and others that's in big need of clean water to survive. We do take a lot for granted in life... way to much, at least that's what I think. I do believe we all could make an effort to save water by simple means.. don't ever let the tap keep running if not necessary when you do the dishes, brush your teeth, take a shower and so forth. Keep in mind that people are dying due to lack of clean water... when you are careless with the water you use.

Funny showering habits...
After having an extra week of rerun on Late Night.. we are now enjoying new shows as the thirteen season has begun. I don't know why the channel TV4+, that airs Late Night, let us have a week of old episodes in between the seasons, but who cares as long as they keep the show on the TV schedule and I'll be content. Unfortunatley we're not able to watch Larry King's show (most of us in Sweden can't) and therefore missed out on Conan being on as guest, but for those who are curious about the interview Bob Costas made with Conan... can read a copy of the transcript.. click here.
As we are in the end of summer many TV series starts again.. among those are CSI, OC, Little Britain, Desperate Housewives, Lost, Third Watch and so forth.. also new ones emerge. The Closer is a new serie that seems interesting, but if I don't remember wrong.. that one is on same day and time as Lost. I guess the different broadcasting companies are fighting over the viewers and high ratings too. Tonight we will be able to continue watching Lost and finally see the last seven episodes of the first season. While I've been waiting for Lost to begin I came across this funny thing about showering habits of women and men. It made me laugh and I thought I might as well post it now, when I don't have anything else better to do.. so here we go...
How to shower like a Woman:
- Take off the fourteen layers of clothing you put on this morning because there was a distinct chill in the air due to the temperature dropping below 73 degrees. Carefully fold and place in clothes hamper.
- Walk to bathroom. If you see your boyfriend/husband along the way, cover up any exposed flesh immediately.
- Look at your womanly physique in the mirror and stick out your gut so that you can complain and whine even more about how you're getting fat.
- Position the shower nozzle away from you and turn on water.
- Get in the shower, once you have found it through all that steam.
- Look for facecloth, armcloth, legcloth, long loofah, wide loofah and pumice stone.
- Wash your hair once with Cucumber and Lamfrey shampoo with 83 added vitamins.
- Wash your hair again with Cucumber and Lamfrey shampoo with 83 added vitamins.
- Condition your hair with Cucumber and Lamfrey conditioner enhanced with natural crocus oil. Leave on hair for fifteen minutes.
- Watch fallen hair accumulate on drain & fret.
- Wash your face with crushed apricot facial scrub until red.
- Wash entire rest of body with Ginger Nut and Jaffa Cake body wash.
- Complain bitterly when you realize that your boyfriend/husband has once again been eating your Ginger Nut and Jaffa Cake body wash.
- Rinse conditioner off hair (this takes at least fifteen minutes as you must make sure that it has all come off.)
- Shave armpits and evaluate if there is time left for legs.
- Slick hair back and pretend you're like Bo Derek in 10.
- Use pumice stone to soften rough spots on feet.
- Use massage mitt to reduce cellulite on thighs.
- Use nail brush to clean toe nails.
- Scream loudly when your boyfriend/husband runs faucet and you get a rush of cold water.
- Cover your entire body in baby oil.
- Turn hot water on full and rinse off, making shower dangerously slippery for boyfriend/husband.
- Dry with a towel the size of a small African country.
- Check entire body for the remotest sign of a spot, or new hair in an uncommon place.
- Apply body lotion from the neck down. Moisturize. Moisturize!
- Return to bedroom wearing long dressing gown and towel on head. If you see your boyfriend/husband along the way, cover up any exposed flesh immediately, and then rush to bedroom.
How to shower like a Man:
- Take off clothes while sitting on the edge of the bed and leave them in a pile on the floor.
- Walk to bathroom wearing a towel. If you see your girlfriend/wife along the way, flash her.
- Look at your manly physique in the mirror and suck in your gut to see if you have pecs.
- Turn on the water, get jet blast in ear.
- Check for pecs again.
- Get in the shower.
- Don't bother to look for a washcloth (you don't use one).
- Wash your face (not compulsory).
- Whistle a few bars of the Irish Spring song.
- Wash your armpits (not compulsory).
- Wash your groin area.
- Wash your behind, with your girlfriend's/wife's loofah.
- Cough up anything that might be lodged in the back of your throat.
- Shampoo your hair with the blue bar of deodorant soap (no need for conditioner).
- Make a shampoo Mohawk.
- Open the door and look at yourself in the mirror.
- Sample your girlfriend's/wife's Ginger Nut and Jaffa Cake body wash.
- Pee.
- Blow your right nostril.
- Blow your left nostril.
- Rinse off and get out of the shower.
- Return to the bedroom wearing a towel, if you pass your girlfriend/wife, flash her.

I got this Dr. Phil's test from a friend by e-mail, try it out. He scored 55 when he did this test on Oprah, she got a 38. This is a real test given by the Human Relations Dept. at many of the major corporations today. It helps them get better insight concerning their employees and prospective employees. The following is pretty accurate and it only takes a couple of minutes. It's only 10 simple questions.. answers are for who you are now, not who you were in the past. Pen and paper.. ready set go... I scored 33 if anyone is curious about how I did on the test.

10. You often dream that you are... a) falling b) fighting or struggling c) searching for something or somebody d) flying or floating e) you usually have dreamless sleep f) your dreams are always pleasant
Now add up the total number of points:
POINTS: 1. (a) 2 (b) 4 (c) 6 2. (a) 6 (b) 4 (c) 7 (d) 2 (e) 1 3. (a) 4 (b) 2 (c) 5 (d) 7 (e) 6 4. (a) 4 (b) 6 (c) 2 (d) 1 5. (a) 6 (b) 4 (c) 3 (d) 5 (e) 2 6. (a) 6 (b) 4 (c) 2 7. (a) 6 (b) 2 (c) 4 8.

OVER 60 POINTS: Others see you as someone they should "handle with care." You're seen as vain, self-centered, and who is extremely dominant. Others may admire you, wishing they could be more like you, but don't always trust you, hesitating to become too deeply involved with you.
51 TO 60 POINTS: Others see you as an exciting, highly volatile, rather impulsive personality; a natural leader, who's quick to make decisions, though not always the right ones. They see you as bold and adventuresome, someone who will try anything once; someone who takes chances and enjoys an adventure. They enjoy being in your company because of the excitement you radiate.
41 TO 50 POINTS: Others see you as fresh, lively, charming, amusing, practical, and always interesting; someone who's constantly in the center of attention, but sufficiently well balanced not to let it go to their head.

31 TO 40 POINTS: Others see you as sensible, cautious, careful practical. They see you as clever, gifted, or talented, but modest. Not a person who makes friends too quickly or easily, but someone who's extremely loyal to friends you do make and who expect the same loyalty in return. Those who really get to know you realize it takes a lot to shake your trust in your friends, but equally that it takes you a long time to get over if that trust is ever broken.
21 TO 30 POINTS: Your friends see you as painstaking and fussy. They see you as very cautious, extremely careful, a slow and steady plodder. It would really surprise them if you ever did something impulsively or on the spur of the moment, expecting you to examine everything carefully from every angle and then, usually decide against it. They think this reaction is caused partly by your careful nature.
UNDER 21 POINTS: People think you are shy, nervous, and indecisive, someone who needs looking after, who always wants someone else to make the decisions who doesn't want to get involved with anyone or anything! They see you as a worrier who always sees problems that don't exist.. Some people think you're boring. Only those who know you well know that you aren't.

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy...
I have finally seen this movie that have taken almost 3 months before it went up at the cinemas here in Sweden. I really liked the movie, but I can't compare it with Douglas Adams' book 'cause it was so long ago since I read it. If I get the time I will read the book again and see if the movie lost any important parts. Otherwise, I think the actors.. Morgan Freeman (Arthur), Zoey Deschanel (Trillian), Mos Def (Ford) and Malkovich who played a small part as Humma Kavula, which I didn't know about until I saw the presentation in the beginning of the movie, were very talented. The film was made in a different way than I had expected and I'm suprised of that they had put so much in the film, even though it didn't last more than 109 minutes. The plot of the movie.. 'everyman Arthur Dent is whisked off the Earth seconds before it is demolished to make way for a hyperspace bypass and as if that's not enough... before it's over, he will have been blown up, attended a poetry reading, been thrown out of an airlock, rescued, reunited with the love of his life, shot at, had a fish stuck in his ear, insulted, whacked, sickened, deprived of tea, learned the answer to the ultimate question, and almost had his brain sawed out by mice. He then goes to have lunch.' My favourite character in the movie was of course the chronically depressed robot 'Marvin' (Warwick Davis played the robot and Alan Rickman did the voice of Marvin).. he was so sweet and in the end of the movie when they are back at Arthur's house, Marvin got shot in the head... that was just an 'aaaawwwwhh' moment. To see the trailer.. click here... Another movie that I'm looking forward to see is C.S. Lewis 'The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. But we have to wait quite a while, it will not be here until December. To watch the trailer for the movie, click here.. warning, may contain some spoilers. Two really good sites to visit and keep you updated on the latest are Narnia and NarniaWorld.

Inspired by an entry 'Lynne' made in her blog, which I paid a visit to a few days ago, I went on a google search for zen sarcasm and these are what I found so far... at mp3talks posted by 'mightyqueencarolyn'. Also, as you all can see.. I've taken time to make a new header for this blog, adding a few new links and some other small changes. Will later on the weekend write a review on the film, 'the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galxy', Sara and I went to see yesterday.
* Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me either. Just pretty much leave me the heck alone.
* The journey of a thousand miles begins with a broken fan belt and a leaky tire.
* It's always darkest before dawn. So if you're going to steal your neighbour's newspaper, that's the time to do it.
* Sex is like air. It's not important unless you aren't getting any.
* Don't be irreplaceable. If you can't be replaced, you can't be promoted.
* No one is listening until you fart.
* Always remember you're unique. Just like everyone else.
* Never test the depth of the water with both feet.
* If you think nobody cares if you're alive, try missing a couple of car payments.
* Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them you're a mile away and you have their shoes.
* If at first you don't succeed, skydiving is not for you.
* Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach him how to fish, and he will sit in a boat and drink beer all day.
* If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.
* If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything.
* Some days you're the bug; some days you're the windshield.
* Don't worry; it only seems kinky the first time.
* Good judgment comes from bad experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment.
* The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.
* A closed mouth gathers no foot.
* Duct tape is like the Force. It has a light side and a dark side, and it holds the universe together.
* There are two theories to arguing with women. Neither one works.
* Generally speaking, you aren't learning much when your lips are moving.
* Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.
* Never miss a good chance to shut up.
* We are born naked, wet and hungry, and get slapped on our butt... Then things get worse.
* Never, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night.
* There is a fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness."
* No matter what happens, somebody will find a way to take it too seriously.
* There comes a time when you should stop expecting other people to make a big deal about your birthday... around age 11.
* Everyone seems normal until you get to know them.

'All eyes on Goldblum'...
I missed the rerun of a new Late Night episode on Monday and then later on in the evening when Jeff Goldblum was guest on the show.. the TV screen was only showing a 'nice' black picture, but luckely I got home in time to catch the encore of Goldblum yesterday. I think he is such an interesting person and has a great way to amuse an audience. I would really like to go and see a play on Broadway he stars in, if I ever get an opportunity someday and he's still in the theatres. Another person I find very interesting too is Bill Maher and I saw him on Letterman last night.. that gave me a reason to actually tune in Letterman, not that he is a bad host or anything. Watch the show only when he have guests I think are worth my attention of notice. Maher was promoting his book New Rules and it seems to be a book worth reading. Also, I kind of like his sense of political humor and the way he is open, honest, right forward with his opinion on the subject. I have a weak spot for political jokes as I probably have mentioned a few times before.

Got to get back to the study hall and continue being a clever student and get something done today. By the way, tomorrow... finally.. I'm going to the movies with Sara and we will see 'Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy'.. whoopiee yeeaaah for us! Also, want to mention that it won't be no trip for me to Gothenburg in next week, due to lack of money. Feels like that is a huge problem, at least lately it has been and that's really to bad. I hate to turn down things in last minute and this is the second time I do that this year.. so far. Earlier this morning I had an appointment at the employment office.. no happy news there, but I got two applications mailed beginning of this week, so that's good. Not that I think I will ever hear from them.. at least I'm trying. As I understood it, I don't think Sara will be joining the gathering in Gothenburg either.. so I won't be the only one cancelling.
I would like to mention that the prosecutor is appealing the verdict in the Marcus Gabrielsen's case and she will be trying to get a murder conviction over Gabrielsen's death... hoping for that new forensic tests will provide more information and also that witnesses will come forward with new testimony.

Pullout from the Gaza Strip...
This is the final countdown for Zionism's rugged frontier in the Gaza Strip, the 21 communities established on land captured in the 1967 Middle East war are slated to become Palestinian domain. But as the August 17 evacuation approaches, many of the roughly 9,000 settlers here and in four communities in the West Bank are refusing to budge, forcing an emotional confrontation over Israel's identity and its future. Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, once the chief architect of the settler movement, now insists withdrawing will disentangle Israel from the volatile strip of 1.3 million Palestinians, and the United States has encouraged it as a step toward reviving the peace process. The settlers accuse Sharon of betraying them and the Zionist cause, and they have run a vocal campaign to win over other Israelis, the majority of whom have expressed support for the pullout. Yet even those hunkering down for a last stand acknowledge that nothing short of a miracle can now prevent troops from kicking them out and razing their homes.
Many of the fine points of this historic operation are unresolved for the government, too. Only about 100 of the 1,700 families in Gaza and the northern West Bank settlements have left, according to the agency running the relocation, and a little more than half have applied for compensation. Temporary housing is still being completed: 260 of roughly 600 planned trailer homes have been set up in communities outside Gaza; the government has paid three months' rent on 800 apartments in the area; and it has secured an additional 1,000 hotel rooms to handle the exodus. There are also contingency plans to use military bases to shelter people. Where the settlers will permanently live, what will happen to graves and greenhouses, and how Gaza will become a stable and economically viable neighbor are still being sorted out. After mass demonstrations and the killing of four Arabs by a Jewish extremist last week, there are also lingering worries about violence by radical settlers and attacks by Palestinian militants. Israel has amassed forces outside Gaza, set up checkpoints usually associated with its reign over the Palestinian territories, and sealed this area as a closed military zone.

Conan O'Brien - fatherhood...
I borrowed a copy of Al Roker's latest book on the subject about fatherhood.. and I thought it was really funny and interesting to read about mens' thoughts and experience of fatherhood. Look for your own copy of the book in a local bookstore or an online store, to read the complete book. This is an abridgement from the piece Conan O'Brien contributed with..
Talk show host; male model; mini-sub enthusiast...
[...] All of us knew that my father was a doctor and that he went off to something called a lab, but none of us had any concept what that really meant. He may as well have been a riverboat gambler because none of us understood anything about the science of battling infectious disease. To be honest, I still can't quite explain to people what my dad does for a living so I often just say that he's a cardsharp on a steamboat called The Mississippi Belle. Though I'm very proud of my dad's work battling infectious disease, it's not easy being the child of a doctor. When a child wants to skip school for a day so he can drink ginger ale and watch The Price Is Right, the most common excuse is "I've got a sore throat." Unfortunately, in our house a sore throat was cause for immediate scientific exploration. The second I said my throat hurt my dad would take me into his study to take a culture of the back of my throat. And, by his own admission, my father is not talented at taking a throat culture. He'd pull out a foot-long swab with a cotton tip and jam it down my throat, looking for suspicious microbes. [...]
[...] Fatherhood for me started when my daughter, Neve, was born a year ago. even though it has been a while, I still can't tell you what it's like to become a father because, thirteen months later, the shock has not worn off. Immediately after the birth the doctor handed me some scissors and told me to cut the umbilical cord. First of all, this seemed like a union violation to me, and second, it seemed like an odd time to start someone off on surgical training. But we men are task-oriented, so it was probably the doctor's way of keeping me from passing out. At that moment he could easily have told me to tighten the distributior cap on a Dodge Caravan and I would have done it. It takes time, after you become a dad, to assess what has really happened to you. When they hand you that baby for the first time it's as if they give you a giant shot of novocaine right in the forehead. Instantly I was transformed into this big, dumb, happy guy who has trouble articulating complex thoughts. [...]
[...] And now I get to see my daughter with my father, which is hilarious. My father has morphed into this kindly, patient, fun-loving grandfather with no trace of a temper. The only time he's going to be reaching into the backseat to get at Neve is to hand her a chocolate bunny. It's completely unfair. Someday my dad will be taking Neve off to see the circus and I'll be shouting after her, "You don't get it, kid, in 1974 this guy was Stalin!" Of course, many people say that grandparents get all the fun of parenting with none of the responsibility, but I have my own theory. It has been scientifically proven that testosterone levels in men start falling in their late twenties, so the authoritarian enforcer we know as kids mellows over time and becomes the kindly, doting grandfather. I'm already a much kinder, relaxed dad today than I would have been in my twenties. Of course, my testosterone levels started falling when I was eleven, so by the time my daughter is in college I'll technically be her grandmother. Won't that be nice...
Two other books I really would like to get my hands on and devour are New Rules:Polite Musings of a Timid Observer by Bill Maher and The Insider:The Private Diaries of a Scandalous Decade by Piers Morgan... I love to read but unfortunatley I don't have enough time for it, I wish I had though.

I came back last evening and I was unpacking my bags while watching a rerun of SNL.. I really like that show and the guest host was Elijah Wood. I've missed a couple of new episodes of Late Night, but I'll catch the encore of two shows later this night. I had a few nice days away and I even had time to look for wild blueberry with my mother. We found lots of them in the forest and then she made, I dare to say, the worlds most delicious blueberry pie ever. She should get the Nobel prize or something in the category of blueberry pie baking...
Already back in old routines.. writing new blog entries, so what have happened lately..? I still haven't got any of the jobs I've applied to and earlier today I wrote two new work applications.. will send them the first thing tomorrow. Something more cheerful.. I received two e-mails from Hanna. Times really flies by.. she has already been a little more than 2 months in Australia now. She has met a lot of interesting people, went on a date with a danish boy (Björn) and experienced dangerous encounters with alligators and sharks. Just a few days ago she took her diver certificate in Port Douglas north of Cairns and is now swimming around in the ocean like a playful 'dolphin'. She'll be moving on soon, leaving the hunky diver instructor behind.. and I believe Ayers Rock, Alice Springs and Darwin will be the next halts.
This coming week Susanne and I will make a real effort to accomplish something with our individual essays. The summer is almost over and we got to pull ourself together and get them done before it's christmas time. It's easier if there is someone that encourage you, so that's what we are trying to do for each other. I'm wondering if Nadia has been lucky and got a student room or not.. I'll write her a few lines later this afternoon, while I'll be watching the competition in men's high jump. I also promised to write an e-mail to my friend Helena when I got back home again, so I guess I'll do that too later on. That reminds me.. I forgot to ask Sara which day she could go and see 'the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy', when I wrote her this morning. Also I haven't got any answers on the travelling plans from Anna yet.. hope to hear from her soon. It would be sad if I have to cancel in last minute.

Like bud that blooms and withers soon;
Like passing day that ends in rain.
All other love begins in bliss,
And ends in tears and suffering:
No love can salve us all but this,
The love that rests in heaven's King.
For ever green, renewed again,
For ever full, it never pales.
It ever sweetens, free from pain,
Continues always, never fails.
