The
Highgate Cemetery in London is supposed to be one of the most eeriest
places to walk around. There is an eerie story about this cemetery
that I want to share with you all.

I have been without television since June 12, 2009, when I lost my
analog
signal. I have tried everything from purchasing two converter boxes, to a
new antenna, to an adapter, to finally breaking down and buying a new
digital television, and nothing works. Almost 5 years later, I am still
without reception in the hills outside of town where I live. I receive at best a broken,
pixilated signal.
As a matter of fact, MILLIONS of low income, unemployed, retired, or
other Americans on fixed incomes don't have TV now. Even more are making
the hard decision to put television service above home repairs and
medical expenses, because we count on our televisions for weather
alerts. Here in Tennessee those weather maps are vital during our
lengthy spring and fall tornado seasons, as well as for other weather
alerts and crisis information.
I have made four requests via the FCC phone hotline for complaint forms
they tell me they send out. After four requests since May, this week I
received a glossy, full-color brochure from the FCC telling me all the
advantages of going digital - still no complaint forms. I have also
requested a supervisor call me back on three occasion since June 12, and
no one has return my calls. The FCC specialist I spoke with today
offered no explanation, but she told me that Congress mandated the
change; the FCC is just the department chosen to implement Congress'
wishes. So the buck doesn't stop at the FCC office.
The FCC specialist also said the FCC couldn't address the issue of just
one person. I had already told her that several people in my area are
having problems, and that I was getting comments on some of my articles
and blogs indicating others across the country were experiencing the
same difficulties. She replied that may be so, but it was just me on the
phone. I asked, "So, I am the ONLY phone call you have taken recently
on this issue?" to which she replied that no, they got plenty of calls
at which point she stopped trying to make this MY issue.
The FCC is sending no complaint forms and offering no helpful feedback
as to what they intend to do to fix this problem. Instead, they are now
trying to hide behind Congress and imply it is an individual's problem,
not theirs.

God - Christianity
I've doubted him, I've questioned him, and I've rejected him. But despite that he showed me that His promise of "I will never leave you, nor forsake you" was very Relevant.
As I continued to seek him through logical, and inspirational evidence of His reality in my life. But as miracles after miracles continue to unfold through my prayers, I begin to realized that he is truly there, and that he is a God of relationships, he is the God of abraham, and he is the God of love. From then on I continue to live my life as proof of His existence.
His Existence In Me
This area of my life is the most difficult thing to show, and express. Have you heard of the disability Called The fear of not being accepted? It's the worst disability that any man can have, it's even more painful than having no limbs.
The word hypocrite has always been there on my mind, and it is a really difficult thing to deal with. Having that on my mind every time I step into a campus was a nightmare of mind blowing words saying: hypocrite! Hypocrite! But God continued to show how he loves me through the words If God is for me, who can be against me? Boy that gave me hope, and it inspired me to continue moving forward despite the challenges.
If God is for me, who can be against me? Think of that for a moment, and let God do the talking in your life. Be the spectator of His greatness, and offer yourself as an instrument of His mercy.
I am ...
A sinner, a thief, and a blasphemer. An adulterer, and a murderer. I although I sin, I am cleansed by the grace, and the love of God.
People, When asked the question "Are you a good person" Often will answer, with no doubt YES! Do not get me wrong, I've also said YES, and this form of questioning changed how I thought of myself. The questioning is found here on www.needGod.com
A few more days and mother nature brings spring into life.Weather is warming and flocks of birds are now seen.People are now wearing light clothes and chit chats about spring is heard everywhere.
I just cant wait to see flowers blooming all around.Butterflies with different species flopping their wings from flower to flower.Bees buzzing around the plants.Trees becoming green again giving the mountains life.
The laughter of children as they go outside and play enjoying the warmth of spring gives life to the backyard which is once a lonely place just covered with snow.
Soon spring rain comes.The rain our farmers are waiting for.Busy green fields over the horizon.What a lovely world we have.

Well, that's it. I know how to get onto the front page, and after a day of doing a lot of liking and commenting and clicking and cleaning out my profile comments, I made it there.
That's Bubblews, of course. I'm always on the front page here with every new post.
I'm starting a series there about getting free or cheap tickets on airlines, coupled with how to achieve elite flyer status.
You know Ryan Bingham in Up in the Air? Well, that's kind of like my life. I do a lot of flying.
Anyway. I just thought I'd share the news, because obviously I can't write an exubilant post at Bubblews.
I'll just bask in the glory there for a bit before I write the next in the series.
Nashville played host to assorted vampires, werewolves and mortals
when the Official Twilight Convention came to Music City the last weekend in
January 2010. Held during one of Nashville's rare snowstorms, the event was otherworldly in more ways than one! The Twilight event was so memorable, it was almost an eternal memory, so I decided to remember it again...
Official Twilight Convention Comes to Nashville
The Gaylord Opryland Resort may have been a vision of a Tennessee Christmas on the outside when the Official Twilight Convention came to Nashville in 2010, but inside it was Forks, Washington all the way as Twilight cast members including Peter Facinelli, Gil Birmingham, Charlie Bewley, Michael Welch, Bronson Pelletier and Kiowa Gordon wove their Twilight magic with the crowds. Kellan Lutz was supposed to be on hand but had to cancel a couple of weeks before the Nashville convention. (See Kellan Lutz cancels Nashville Twilight appearance.)
The Official Twilight Convention included a Volturi Ball, a breakfast
with the stars, photos ops, music, and many other opportunities to get
to know more about the cast and the movies. The convention is visiting
several cities around the country but without Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart or Taylor Lautner.

Millions of people suffer from different sorts of Phobias. Some are not even commonly heard of. But as bizarre as they may seem or even sound, they are for real and as real as the person who suffer from any of the phobias.
First is Hylophobia - it is the fear of trees, wood, or forest. A Hylophobe suffers extreme anxiety even when just simply thinking or hearing about wood.
Second isNomophobia - it is the fear of having or being without mobile phone coverage, running out of battery or even losing sight of the mobile. This is just the latest findings and is said that more than half of the UK are sufferers from this phobia. There might be more out there from other countries who also suffer from this.
Third is Xanthophobia - it is the fear of anything which is yellow. This may sound so bizarre but even sea turtles suffer from this. Xanthophobic is extremely anxious when exposed to sun or even just by looking at the picture of daffodil, sun and anything yellow.
The fourth is Turophobia- which is fear of cheese. The most uncommon phobia. Sufferers often fear a certain type of cheese, but some fear cheese altogether.
The fifth is Ombrophobia - this is an irrational fear of rain or being rained upon. A sufferer may even be so anxious with just the sound of rain or even just presented a situation of being rained on .
The sixth is Papaphobia- it is the pathological fear of the pope or papacy. Sufferers dread the pope or even the mere mention of the pope.
The seventh is Hierophobia - this is the abnormal fear of sacred objects or holy people and is closely related to papaphobia. Most sufferers have an abnormal fear of priests or cross and anything related to church.
These are just some of the very uncommon phobias ever discovered. We should not laugh nor judge people who have a particular fear of something. We should be mindful and tactful of what we say and show respect to the individual and their fear/s. Photo is mine, Dreamy Cakes or dreamycakes are my usernames in other sites :)
This one was supposed to be for bubblews but its giving me some errors so let me post here. I am posting something after a long time, have to make it good. So this few days I have been a bit busy but tried to post some stuffs but the submit button won't appear in the page.
I want to put something out there for people to talk about. Is it good to master one or is it good to know all a bit?
For me I think knowing everything even a bit is good then staying idle and mastering only one.
