Walking one foot in front of the other--Foot facts
“As a single footstep will not make a path on the earth, so a single thought will not make a pathway in the mind. To make a deep physical path, we walk again and again. To make a deep mental path, we must think over and over the kind of thoughts we wish to dominate our lives.” -Henry David Thoreau
.......²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²². ......
1. The human foot contains 26 bones, 33 joints, 107 ligaments and 19 muscles.
2. Your feet mirror your general health. Conditions such as arthritis, diabetes, nerve and circulatory disorders can show their initial symptoms in the feet --so foot ailments can be our first sign of more serious medical problems. Biomechanical fault and strain affect the knees, joints and L5.
3. There are 250,000 sweat glands in a pair of feet. Sweat glands in the foot excrete as musch as a half pint of moisture a day.
4. The average person takes 8,000 to 10,000 steps a day, which adds up to about 115,000 miles ove a lifetime. That's enough to go around the circumference of the earth four times.

Two poems for my FurFriend MARBLE Cake
Catch a Little Rhyme by Eve Merriam
Once upon a time
I caught a little rhyme
...I set it on the floor
...but it ran right out the door
......I chased it on my bicycle
......but it melted to an icicle
..........I scooped it up in my hat
..........but it turned into a cat
I caught it by the tail
but it stretched into a whale
...I followed it in a boat
...but it changed into a goat
......When I fed it tin and paper
......it became a tall skyscraper
..........Then it grew into a kite
..........and flew far out of sight...

²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²²`•.,,.•
Still I Rise by Maya Angelou (variation in CAPS)
...Just like moons and like suns,
......With the certainty of tides,
.........Just like hopes springing high,
............Still I'll rise.
...Into a daybreak that's wondrously clear
......I rise
............Bringing the gifts that my ancestors gave,
I am the dream and the hope of the FELINE.
...I rise
......I rise
.........I rise.

Riddled with mystery
“The questions are always more important than the answers. Never lose the child-like wonder.” - Randy Pausch, The Last Lecture (Amazing book)
..*•*¨`*•. (¯`v´¯) (¯`v´¯) .•*¨`*•*.
I am within as white as snow,

I am higher than a house,
....and yet am lesser than a mouse.

Though of great age,
.......I'm kept in a cage,
Having a long tail and one ear,
............My mouth it is round,
And when joys do abound,
.......O, then I sing wonderful clear.
What am I?.........................Bell in a steeple
Still, I am like a mirror
......Fast, I am stronger than stone.
Wet, I can burn you.
......Dry, I can keep you warm
Life, I can be a desert
......Death, I can be on the riverbank
What am I?...............................Water
Three eyes have I, all in a row;
........when the red one opens, all freeze.
What am I?............................A traffic light.

Power of her words
<<..•.¸¸•´¯`•.¸¸Emmeline Pankhurst¸¸.•´¯`•¸¸.•..>>
Speech on women's suffrage on November 13, 1913.
"I do not come here as an advocate. I am here as a soldier who has temporarily left the field of battle in order to explain what civil war is like when civil war is waged by women. I am here as a person who, according to the law courts of my country, it has been decided, is of no value to the community at all.
Women, many of whom you respect, women whom you know have lived useful lives, women whom you know, even if you do not know them personally are animated with the highest movtives, women who are in pursuit of liberty and the power to do useful public service...unless you are prepared to put back civilization two or three generations, you must give those women the vote. Now that is the outcome of our civil war."
«-••.•´¯`•.•• ••.•´¯`•.••-» «-••.•´¯`•.•• ••.•´¯`•.••-»
Moving conscious awareness into the field of future possibilities (or probabilities) gives us a degree of conscious choice or control over the future our subconscious mind creates. The Sanskrit word for "to know" literally translates into English as "to go through". Until our conscious mind actually experiences an event or manifestation of physical reality it cannot "know" that event or manifestation.
«-••.•´¯`•.•• ••.•´¯`•.••-» «-••.•´¯`•.•• ••.•´¯`•.••-»
Emmeline Goulden was born in 1858. She married Richard, an attorney, in 1879 to Richard. He shared her convictions about women's rights. He drafted the bill giving married women absolute control over their property and earnings, a bill, which became law in 1882.
She was a striking, charismatic woman and an inspiring speaker. "Perhaps it is difficult to rouse women, they are long-suffering and patient, but now that we are roused, we will never be quiet again." In June 1918 British women over age 30 won the right to vote. On July 2, 1928, just three weeks after her death, a law was passed allowing all women over the age of 21 to vote. Her 3 daughters benefited from her steadfast campaign for social justice.

War amputees - artificial limbs
`•.¸¸.•´´¯`••._.•Veteran's Day•.¸¸.•´´¯`••._.•
Wounded warriors make their way back through extraordinary courage and determination. More than 1,200 members of the US military have lost arms and legs in Middle East fighting in the decade since 9/11.

Military research, creative engineering and technological advances in prosthetics help those who have lost limbs, all or part of an arm or leg through various reasons including:
•Traumatic injuries from military combat including traffic accidents
•Circulation problems from atherosclerosis or diabetes, resulting in amputation
•Birth defects

~11:11:11~(Veteran's-Armistice-Remembrance Day~
On November 11th, we remember the brave fallen. We owe so much to the sacrifices of a very few.
**End of WWI in 1918: A day for Reflection**
In 1918, at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month, hostilities between the Western Allies and Germany ceased, effectively ending what was until then the bloodiest conflict in human history.
The phrase “at the 11th hour” is biblical (Matthew 20:6 — “And about the eleventh hour) and it is understood to mean “at the very last possible minute.”
After the war, a park was created at the site called the Clairiere de L’Armistice (the Clearing of the Armistice). A concrete pavilion was built to house the rail car, and a statue of Foch was erected along with a plaque that read: “Here on the eleventh of November 1918 succumbed the criminal pride of the German empire ... vanquished by the free peoples which it tried to enslave.”
°l11|11|11l°(A Palindromic Moment)°l11|11|11l°
**Symmetry makes us feel safe and balanced.
Nov. 11, 2011, the date when three 11s will align for the first time in a century. There's nothing unusual about the time 11:11 or the date 11/11/11 except the unofficial start of the 2012 metaphysical year.
**Mathematics
The number eleven, as the sixth prime number, has a special characteristic in mathematics. It contains some interesting peculiarities where the number eleven multiplied by itself equals a palindrome (remains the same when its digits are reversed):
(2 digits) 11 x 11 = 121
(6 digits) 111111 x 111111 = 12345654321

Dance - Vote #42
Life-affirming, inspiring & captivating, heartwarming song.
Live fully, joyously, completely and purposefully
.......Have confidence to try something new........
Take chances on opportunities......Gain strength
Embrace challenges.................Hold nothing back
Fulfill dreams.................... ............................Believe
»-(¯`v´¯)-» "I Hope You Dance" »-(¯`v´¯)-»
......by Tia sillers and Mark Sanders
I hope you never lose your sense of wonder,
You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger,
May you never take one single breath for granted,
God forbid love ever leave you empty handed
I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean
Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens,
Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance,
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.
I hope you dance....I hope you dance.
I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance,
Never settle for the path of least resistance
Livin' might mean takin' chances but they're worth takin',
Lovin' might be a mistake but it's worth makin',
Don't let some hell bent heart leave you bitter,
When you come close to sellin' out reconsider,
Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance,
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.
I hope you dance....I hope you dance.
...Time is a wheel in constant motion
always rolling us along,
Tell me who wants to look back
on their youth and wonder
where those years have gone.
Dance....I hope you dance.
(> ” ” <)....Beautiful, powerful, meaningful song

NY-size iceberg
+------------- (NASA's Operation IceBridge)------------+
Scientists based in Punta Arena, Chile are in their third field campaign of the largest six-year airborne survey of Earth’s polar ice ever flown. The mission is geared to produce unparalleled 3D views of Arctic and Antarctic ice sheet, ice shelves and sea ice.
Instruments onboard the DC-8, a flying laboratory, include a suite of radars. Its precision topography maps with a laser than scans 360 degrees 20 times per second, while firing 3,000 laser pulses per second. The Digital Mapping System, a nadir-view camera, gathered high-definition close-ups of an enormous and unstable split.
The Western Antarctica's Pine Island Glacier is one of the largest and fastest-moving glaciers in Antarctica. On the flight perpendicular to the crack, the McCORDS radar also measured its depth and the thickness of the ice shelf in that region. The crack, formed between the end of September and early October, is fairly dramatic. When the iceberg breaks free, it will cover about 340 square miles (larger than NY City or the size of Berlin) of surface area. Radar measurements suggested the ice shelf in the region of the rift is about 1,640 feet thick, with only about 160 feet of that floating above water and the rest submerged. With the crack widening every day, the iceberg will form when it breaks away. This is expected to take place at the end of the year or in early 2012.
The ice shelf thins, the grounding line retreats and the speed of the glacier increases. The ice sheets of Greenland and Antarctica are melting at an accelerating pace, and may soon become the biggest contributor and source of uncertainty to global sea level rise projections. If current rates of ice loss were to continue, sea level could rise by as much as three feet or more before the end of this century. The last big cyclical carving event occurred in 2001.
Satellites, ICESAT (Ice, Cloud and land Elevation Satellite), ended in February 2010, and ICESAT 2, will launch in 2016, is the benchmark Earth Observing System mission intends to continue the assessment of polar ice changes and their relationship with climate.

1572: Tycho's supernova, explosion of a white dwarf star, is observed in the Milky Way constellation known as Cassiopeia
Jupiter rules the night in November 2011 as it shines and beams, like a lighthouse, in the east moving westward and upward from evening dusk until morning dawn.
Meteors in annual showers originate as grains of dust or ice in space, left behind by comets. After midnight, the part of Earth you’re standing on has turned so that you face head on into the incoming stream of space debris. So you typically see more meteors after midnight – unless the moon happens to rise in the middle of the night. Although the moon may wash out some Leonid meteors, it acts as your guide to the meteor shower radiant and the red planet Mars.
The annual Leonid meteor shower ramps up a few additional streaks of light and gets underway in November 6. With the Moon currently waxing toward Full, the best views will come before dawn tomorrow and Tuesday in the hour or two after the Moon sets. Astronomers expect the shower to peak the night of November 17/18.

Fall back tonight
*"The times they are a-changing." -Bob Dylan ¨‘°ºOOº°‘¨
¨‘°ºOOº°‘¨"Time meanwhile flies, never to return" -Virgil
***"Lost time is never found again" -Benjamin Franklin
¨‘°ºOOº°‘¨Back to Standard Time on 11/5/11¨‘°ºOOº°‘¨¨
We gain an hour of sleep this weekend!! Dayllight savings comes to an end at 2:00 a.m. Sunday morning. With the clocks turned back, it will be less dark in the morning but darkness will fall earlier in the evening. Arizona, Hawaii and Puerto Rico stay on standard time all year round.
The concept of daylight-saving time may have first been proposed by Benjamin Franklin in 1784 to the Parisians. The thought was that Americans would appreciate an extra hour of sunlight and conserve energy (candles and oil back then).
Transitions may disrupt chronobiologic rhythms and influence the duration and quality of sleep as the effect lasts for several days after the shift. People who suffer with sleep disorders seem to find the bi-annual transitions more difficult. The extra hour of sleep means a lost hour of afternoon sun, which increases reliance on electricity and decreases the potential for, vitamin D-giving outdoor activities. Nearly half of the world’s population has lower than optimal levels of vitamin D, often called the sunshine vitamin.

The human population reached a billion in 1804. By 1927, that figure doubled. In just over 30 years, it hit 3 billion. Population figures have doubled in the last 50 years. Every 24 hours on our planet some 237,000 people are born and 140,000 die. Nearly half the world’s population is under the age of 25 and entering their childbearing years. The United Nation's figures come with a 1-2% margin of error.
On October 31, the world's 7 billionth person will be born. A world of 7 billion poses many challenges, implications for sustainability, urbanization, access to health services and youth empowerment and countless opportunities to make a positive difference.
The UN's reason for naming a symbolic date as 7 Billion Day is to draw attention to the speed of population growth, with less than 13 years having passed between the six-billion and seven-billion milestones. The UN estimates that baby 8 billion will be born by 2025, 9 billion by 2050, 10 billion by end of century.

Seize the weekend
((¯`v´¯))Oct 22: Make a Difference Day((¯`v´¯))
Make A Difference Day is a celebration of neighbors helping neighbors. This is the nation’s largest volunteering day. Millions of Americans rally into action to help change and make the world a better place through undertakings that include revitalizing community centers, rehabilitating parks, improving low-income homes, creating community art projects, mentoring, serving meals, developing community
gardens and much more.
Seize the day, seize the moment, inspire, equip and mobilize corporations, nonprofit organizations, families and individuals to improve communities throughout the year.

On the shoulder of giants
Here's your VOTE with achieved milestones. All women today come into the world on the shoulders of the ones who came before them.
((¯`v´¯)) Women's first events ((¯`v´¯))
October 19, 1849 Elizabeth Blackwell becomes 1st woman in U.S. to receive medical degree.
1864 Rebecca Lee Crumpler becomes the first black woman to receive an M.D. degree from the New England Female Medical College.
1866 Lucy Hobbs becomes the first woman to graduate from the Ohio College of Dental Surgery.
1869 Arabella Mansfield is granted admission to practice law in Iowa, making her the first woman lawyer.
1870 Ada H. Kepley is the first woman lawyer to graduate from a law school, the Union College of Law in Chicago.
1873 Ellen Swallow Richards, the first woman to be admitted to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, earned a B.S. and became the first female professional chemist in the U.S.
August 26, 1920, the 19th Amendment to the US Constitution became law. Women voted in the fall elections, including in the Presidential election.
1932 Hattie Wyatt Caraway, of Arkansas, becomes the first woman elected to the U.S. Senate
1967 Muriel "Mickey" Siebert becomes the first woman to own a seat on the New York Stock Exchange and the first woman to head one of its member firms.
1981 Sandra Day O'Connor is appointed by President Reagan to the Supreme Court, making her its first woman justice.
1990 Dr. Antonia Novello is sworn in as U.S. Surgeon General, becoming the first woman (and first Hispanic) to hold that job.
1997 Madeleine Albright is sworn in as U.S. secretary of state. She is the first woman in this position as well as the highest-ranking woman in the US government.
Heroes and pioneers have shaped our world and changed the course of history. They fought for our rights, struggled to be free of discrimination, refused to be locked into a role set forth by men/society and broken free of the conventions of the culture.

Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul,
And sings the tune--without the words,
And never stops at all,

Lost in a maze craze
((¯`v´¯))Octo*ber news VOTE!((¯`v´¯))
You can grow it, shuck it, pop it, cook it and even play in it. It seems to be less about eating it and more about getting lost in it as the newest form of "agritainment". Some stumble onto the correct pathways and exit the maze in minutes; the more directionally-challenged wander the puzzles for up to several hours. Still a fun, clean, educational and unique recreation for all ages.
A couple got lost at Connors Farm's corn maze in Danvers, MA. It has a scale difficulty of 9 out of 10. They were rescued by a K-9 police 25 feet from the exit as darkness fell. All's well that ends well.

Another warm beautiful day in NH, hope it lasts !!
((¯`v´¯))Nature’s autumn palette ((¯`v´¯))
Your VOTE comes with a rainbow leaf bouquet tied with bows of iridescent ribbon.
Fall’s changing colors are linked to cooling temperatures, decreasing sunlight and soil moisture. Chlorophyll gives plants their green color. Glucose is trapped in the leaves after photosynthesis stops. Sunlight and the cool nights in autumn cause the leaves to turn glucose into colors which become visible after the chlorophyll disappears.
The bright red and purple fall foliage colors come from anthocyanin pigments, orange colors from carotene and yellows from xanthophyll. Different combinations of these pigments give us a wide range of colors each fall. Brown fall foliage colors come from tannin, a bitter waste product.

Autumn celebration
((¯`v´¯))October 8, the 281st day of the year (¯`v´¯)
Celebrate the harvest ball in the fall. Prepare for the transitions of this rapidly changing world. Seasons of change unfold like clockwork so carve out time to reflect.
Autumn is an open door where you find welcoming smiles. Walk through a secluded path, stop over to rest and reflect. Understand who you are, where you have been and where you are heading.
Catch sparks of enlightment and crystal clear awareness to weather out the storms. Sense the glimmers of revelations beyond the horizon. Navigate life's ups and downs. Reclaim the future. Burst into bloom in the spring. Change is the only constant in life. Here's your VOTE.
"In the other gardens
And all up the vale,
From the autumn bonfires
See the smoke trail.
Pleasant summer over
An all the summer flowers,
The red fire blazes,
The gray smoke towers.
Sing a song of seasons!
Something bright in all,
Flowers in the summer
Fires in the fall!"
by Robert Louis Stevenson, Autumn Fires

New England destination
((¯`v´¯))Week-end's here. Another VOTE !!(¯`v´¯))
I sit here a meowing,
all perched in my tree,
the words are not there,
but the lyrics are free,
a sweet morning of purrs,
to the pleasure of all,
a cool and bright morning,
New England in fall.
The leaves are all parting,
the days they grow short,
the colors of Autumn;
before Winter's return,
the splendor is there,
for all to come see,
come visit New England,
and spend Fall with furrfriends?
