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

A big workout or a major house-cleaning is in order on Monday. You'll not only feel better about yourself and your surroundings, but you'll be able to clear your head, too. Then, something's urgent around Tuesday and Wednesday; could it be in the love department? Making the first move wouldn't hurt. While you've certainly got your own concerns from Thursday through the weekend, making the world brighter for those around you (your boss, a relative, a friend, even a random stranger) reflects a very lovely cosmic light back on you.


Taurus

Take someone out to lunch on Monday -- or have them over and make it for them. Keep it agenda-free and just talk; building bonds goes great now. You know you're right around Tuesday and Wednesday, but getting adamant about it isn't necessarily the way to sway people. Listen to their side (no, really!), and be ready to understand that there might be something to it. Common ground can be found. The rest of the week's ripe for shaking things up, especially in your love life. Surprise someone, and surprise yourself, too.


Gemini

You're not as social a creature as you usually are on Monday, and nesting at home might sound better than anything. Heed that natural instinct. You're ready to make things happen again around Tuesday and Wednesday, when the process of going from a concept to reality is smoothed by the stars. Getting people to agree with you is favored now, too, so make plans while you can. From Thursday through most of Saturday, those connections aren't as easy; you might even have to explain yourself a lot. The last of the weekend looks to be full of good feelings and the chance of romance!


Cancer

If you have time off on Monday, make the most of it; if you don't, consider taking some. Your energy's so good ... why waste it on work? Around Tuesday and Wednesday, you might leave that shell of yours so far behind that it's a little outrageous. Kudos to you for putting yourself out there, but do also give a tiny bit of thought to what this might mean down the road. Those who think you're hopelessly at the mercy of your emotions might be surprised by your objective standpoint and analytical abilities during the rest of the week. It's a great time for a reality check.


Leo

Take it easy on Monday, and give yourself time to think. Finding the source of your emotions is important now, whether they're negative or positive. Then, around Tuesday and Wednesday, your inhibitions might just go out the window, and it just might be a marvelous thing. Why not do what you feel, say what you mean and make the most of life? You're hot now! This ought to be out of your system by Thursday, and the rest of the week looks low-key. You're working things through, professionally or personally, or even both. Good for you.


Virgo

Getting organized for the week to come is a fine idea on Monday, but getting together with someone you care about would be even better. At least give a call and have a chat. Then, if you feel like you're at a disadvantage around Tuesday and Wednesday, don't freeze up or get outraged. How can you reshape your role in a positive way? Sort it out -- and get on it. Anything's possible with the great energy you've got from Thursday through most of Saturday. Snap things into place with ease. If you can't decide on Sunday, don't push yourself.


Libra

Whatever big ambitions you have for Monday are likely to be foiled. Your mission: Make the best of it. Around Tuesday and Wednesday, taking action is much more favored, and others look to you to take the lead, whether in your professional or personal life. For best results, add an unusual element. Give it flair! Socializing's favored from Thursday through the remainder of the week, as is sorting out an interpersonal issue. With your charm, diplomacy and ability to unearth the best in people, you may end up great friends with somebody you never thought of as a buddy.


Scorpio

Combining the emotional with the intellectual on Monday -- letting yourself go after thinking it through -- allows you to see a new angle. Around Tuesday and Wednesday, it's tempting to let your reaction spill out, but a certain situation demands restraint. Life could be stressful now, so plan to handle it calmly instead of letting it get to you. Then, if you don't have your agenda out in the open during the rest of the week, why would you expect that anyone else would? Consider leveling with someone important in your life. The results might surprise you.


Sagittarius

Let your mood dictate your day on Monday as much as possible. You're happiest and you get the most done when you have a flexible agenda. It looks like a distinct advantage may be coming your way around Tuesday and Wednesday -- a lucky break, a bonus or an upgrade. Knowing you, you'll be generous, too, keeping the good vibes going. But beware: If you can't be bothered with the details from Thursday through most of Saturday, the details will likely become a bother to you. Time with friends, new or old, is favored on Sunday. How about brunch?


Capricorn

Wherever you are, you might wish you were someplace else on Monday. It's just one of those days; breathe deeply and hold on. News is traveling about your ability to get things done, and around Tuesday and Wednesday, there's a chance of getting overloaded. Know when to say no -- or to ask the requestor to take on something in return. Over the next few days, though, you're pretty much unstoppable, and it's an excellent time to turn that sharp mind (and that solid-gold heart) toward the future. What is it you want to do next? Sunday's ideal for taking the first step.


Aquarius

Stick to the plan on Monday. Your emotions may seem very compelling, but it's unlikely you'll still feel this way in the long term. In fact, as soon as Tuesday and Wednesday hit, you'll be able to separate out your reaction from reality, and from there it's easy to make a discovery and even improve a relationship. And if you're interested in relating to people (or maybe a certain someone) on a deeper level, the rest of the week offers opportunities galore. Skip the chitchat and get down to the real deal by asking serious questions and sharing powerful emotions.


Pisces

Monday's a fun day, so make the most of your time off. Making an overture of the romantic variety is favored now, too -- lucky you! Keep your nose out of other people's business around Tuesday and Wednesday, or at least keep your opinion of it to yourself. Further developments will have you glad you didn't chime in. It's your own affairs -- maybe with a friend or partner -- that are first and foremost during the remainder of the week. You're usually so charitable, but right now you're more critical, which can be very useful in making improvements.

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.”
