Joke of the Week

The Husband's Housework! 

My friend's husband is always telling her that housekeeping would be a snap if only she would organize her time better. Recently he had a chance to put his theory into practice while his wife was away.

When I popped in one evening to see how he was managing, he crowed, "I made a cake and frosted it; washed the kitchen windows; cleaned all the cupboards; scrubbed the kitchen floor, walls, and ceiling; and even had a bath."

I was about to concede that perhaps he was a better manager than his wife, when he added sheepishly, "When I was making the chocolate frosting, I forgot to turn off the mixer before taking the beaters out of the bowl, so I had to do all the rest."

After a half hour clamber over a steep rocky hillside we came to the top pools above Gunlom Fall - excellent swimming we loved it. The day was about 36 degrees and a cool dip was just what we needed. Heading to Katherine today (25th Aug) and West to meet Gary and Cath somewhere near Timber Creek....  http://durninsonsafari.blogspot.com/2010/08/kakadu-national-park.html

Not far down the gravel road we came across a tour vehicle on the wrong side of the road, for a moment we thought they had hit a tree but they had actually lost a wheel, yep the whole wheel was on the L/H side of the road in the bush and the vehicle was on the R/H side of the road. It was actually a bit scary but everyone on board was unhurt and safe. Once we made sure they were ok we continued on. We were making fairly good time until we hit "the 4WD track" and yes it was a track for 1 vehicle with little turnouts if you come across another vehicle and every 1km or so... Continued

Weekly Horoscope
Aries

You'd better cool it at the beginning of this week! Better yet, take that excess energy and go out of your way to do something nice for someone. The universe will recognize your efforts, and on Wednesday and Thursday the way will be clear for you. It will definitely be prime time for a push at work -- or some sweet romantic moves! They'll love your spirit. Around Friday and Saturday, though, focus is key. Choose your direction carefully, and don't try to do too many things at once. You can go all-out on Sunday if you like!


Taurus

Let 'all for one and one for all!' be your motto as the week gets going. Get together with a few of your favorite people -- or maybe just one certain someone -- and there's very little you can't do. Then guide the rush of energy coming your way around Wednesday and Thursday carefully. Apply yourself to an exciting new project -- just one, not a bunch at once -- and make sure it's well thought-out and executed. On Friday and over the weekend, you really ought to apply yourself to more romantic matters. You'll be undeniably hot, whether you're the life of the party or one-on-one!


Gemini

You might be dreaming of a change at the beginning of the week, but now's not necessarily the time to take action. If you do make a move, make it a clear one. Around Wednesday and Thursday, how's your network or community? Check in with colleagues, family and friends -- they'll love hearing from you, and somebody's got something to let you in on, too. And unless you really want to be all over the place on Friday and over the weekend, make a conscious effort to recognize what -- and who -- you want to spend your time and thoughts on. Your priorities and focus reflect on you.


Cancer

How does it all fit together on Monday and Tuesday? Leave the isolated tinkering to others -- you've got a way with the connections, an understanding of the glue. But on Wednesday and Thursday, be aware that things (and possibly people) may not be what they appear to be. Before you embrace or dismiss, do a little background check or ask an extra question or two. And just in time for Friday and the weekend, the flirtatious social butterfly inside emerges into the sunlight (and twilight, and moonlight)! Get festive, and enjoy your own personal cosmic party!


Leo

Watch the drama factor at the beginning of the week -- your own as well as that of those around you! Be the one to defuse a situation, and watch things suddenly get a lot sweeter. On Wednesday and Thursday, you'll be happiest when you're absorbing (and questioning!) something -- or someone -- new. Of course, delving into fresh aspects of an old favorite and transforming it for the better will work just as well. From Friday through the weekend, you'll love getting attention, but giving it may be even more gratifying. Show them how very, very interested you are.


Virgo

The start of the week seems like a natural time to start something new ... but the stars suggest you wait just a bit. Some energy that centers on ideals will help you align what's happening around you -- and what you want -- with your personal value system around Wednesday and Thursday. If this involves a philosophical conflict with a person or situation close to your heart, that will be easier to resolve on Friday or over the weekend. Bring your good-faith efforts together in meaningful, long-lasting ways now -- the stars are with you.


Libra

You're a natural-born Cupid at the beginning of the week. Helping others get their affairs in order may be easier than dealing with your own now, but real avoidance leads to real problems. You'd better focus those attentions closer to home on Wednesday and Thursday; how you handle interpersonal matters will really, well, matter. Set the tone! And they say that pretty is as pretty does -- and with the stars giving you a hand, on Friday and over the weekend you'll be looking good and doing the right thing, too. It's a super-hot combination!


Scorpio

Exploring your options as the week gets going reveals all sorts of stuff you haven't yet considered. Anyone else would be confused, but for you, it's just a whole new realm to play in. Just rein yourself in a bit around Wednesday and Thursday. What you do at this juncture will require thinking through -- the negative repercussions or positive ripple effects are magnified! And you'll love a challenge around Friday and Saturday, so give yourself a project or a goal to work towards. If competition is involved, be an extra good sport when it's through. On Sunday, downtime's in order.


Sagittarius

You may start slowly as the week begins, but once you get started, you keep going ... and going! Kick-start the ol' brain with a little exercise and some fresh input -- otherwise, the getting-going part will eat up precious time. Plan a hot date or fun with friends for Wednesday or Thursday; it'll be an extra fun and dynamic few days for you. At work, you're awesome with concepts, design, strategy and other higher-level stuff, but you'll need some method in your madness on Friday and over weekend. Have at least a semblance of a plan -- and stick to it!


Capricorn

At the beginning of the week, the stars are sending new ways to connect with others -- maybe a certain someone -- if only you're willing to embrace them! Then if something's worrying you around Wednesday and Thursday, it will really help to share the burden. Talk to a friend or get a boost from a colleague -- they rely on you too, so let them in. When Friday comes, knock off early and get a head start on some fun. Apply yourself to time off like you would to a duty -- enjoying living, and loving, is in the stars. You deserve it!


Aquarius

You love stuff that's far out, but as this week gets going, it's too easy for you to careen off-track. Be a little practical, or at least run it by a pragmatic friend or colleague. Once you've got the basics in place, branching out will go a lot better around Wednesday and Thursday. Push yourself and those around you in fascinating new directions; you're very cutting-edge now, and people will feel lucky to be a part of it. But be proactive about avoiding some doldrums around Friday and Saturday. Mix up your routine. Life's only as interesting as you make it -- same with love, especially on Sunday!


Pisces

Get going while your personal energy's flowing at the beginning of the week! The changes you want to make are easy to enact now, especially because they involve making things better for others, too. But around Wednesday and Thursday, a certain amount of skepticism is healthy. Don't just take things at face value; find out what's behind the facade. And the cosmic forecast for Friday and this weekend? Dreamy days and hot nights! All that's most appealing about you will be accented now. Just be aware of the impact you're having, especially on Sunday.

Did you know?

Uranium is an extremely heavy metal, but instead of sinking into the Earth's core it is concentrated on the surface. Uranium is found almost exclusively in the Earth's continental crust, because its atoms don't fit in the crystal structure of the minerals of the mantle. Geochemists consider uranium one of the incompatible elements, more specifically a member of the large-ion lithophile element or LILE group. Its average abundance, over the whole continental crust, is a bit less than 3 parts per million.

Uranium never occurs as bare metal; rather, it most often occurs in oxides as the minerals uraninite (UO2) or pitchblende (U3O8). In solution, uranium travels in molecular complexes with carbonate, sulfate and chloride as long as the chemical conditions are oxidizing. But under reducing conditions, uranium drops out of solution into mineral form. (Carbon behaves the same way, as do several other elements.) This behavior is the key to uranium prospecting. Uranium deposits mainly occur in two geologic settings, a relatively cool one in sedimentary rocks and a hot one in granites.

Buddhist Quote

“To enjoy good health, to bring true happiness to one's family, to bring peace to all, one must first discipline and control one's own mind. If a man can control his mind he can find the way to Enlightenment, and all wisdom and virtue will naturally come to him.”
