Try full screen volume high. Lyrics to Desert (English Version) : Where is the sea  I don't why I was just looking for the sea But the only thing I found was a desert A desert around me  What can I see You close my eyes when I just need to go and see If you want me to be blind I will stay here With this desert around me The world I can see Is a nowhere land  Without you I'm a nowhere girl  In the desert  In the desert With you Where is the sea  I don't why I was just looking for the sea  But the only thing I found was a desert A desert around me  Where is the sea I am alone I am dreaming of the sea That you are not here next to me The world I can see Is a nowhere land Without you I'm a nowhere girl  In the desert  In the desert  With you

"Oxycodone is a semi-synthetic opioid synthesized from poppy-derived thebaine. It is a narcotic analgesic generally indicated for relief of moderate to severe pain. It was developed in 1916 in Germany as one of several new semi-synthetic opioids in an attempt to improve on the existing opioids. ... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxycodone " TENS "trans-cutaneous electrical nerve stimulation, a technique intended to provide pain relief by applying electrodes to the skin to block impulses in underlying nerves." PS There are very serious risks involved with this procedure.  But worse pain, paralysis and stroke are very rare.  I don't think surgery is any safer.  Right now I can't drive due to the leg weakness. I won't be able to dig my vegetable garden.  I feel sleepy and dreamy from the oxycodone. I'll take a chance to get my life back to normal.

I found this on the Vimeo website.  It's the best short (under 3 minutes!) ghost video I've come across. Website: Vimeo Use full screen. Some of the shadows are hard to see.

I found this video on the Digg website: Digg It was originally from the Vimeo  website: vimeo.com

I like to call my To-Do list my "Action List".  It just sounds better to me, more encouraging to do something rather than just add items to a list. I tried out a few programs but this one is easier and more useful.  You can even change the background! Here's the original background: Here is a link: The Best To-Do App for Windows Using pen and paper is okay but you can't make changes as easily. Rearranging, organizing, deleting are much easier with a computer program. But using paper and pen does not require any equipment or learning to use the software. I still print a copy just in case something goes wrong.     

These pages are not complete. I want to put in some biographical information. Then I'll add whatever I can find to make a family tree.  I'll have to work with a small family.  My parents are no longer living.  I never met my grandparents. Before the 1900's my family roots go back to Italy. I'll add pages from whatever I know about the family even if it's only their first and last names; maybe where they lived.   My parents were married here: Minturno, Latina, Lazio I know that the further back in time I go the results will be less reliable. Putting in the references from birth, death and marriage certificates will be proof that the information is valid. Maybe I'll get lucky and find someone from the family looking for any information I might have.

Why I'm going to try WeRelate: It's free. I don't want to get into a subscription service like Ancestry.com It works like wiki;   a website that allows editing of its content by its users. I hope I can find distant relatives working on their genealogy so we can exchange information.  This is what could make the website useful. The information is saved as a webpage.  This should be safer than having it on my PC because I can use any PC to find it. But I wonder if letting my family history be out on the web will  jeopardize my privacy.  I'm not publishing my social security number, bank accounts, etc. I'm not a celebrity.  It should be safe.    I found this on the Gizmo freeware website. Here's a video explaining how it works: The link:   www.werelate.org So far I'm still learning to use this wiki website. It's more difficult than I expected. I'll let you know how it works...
