All of us sometimes engage in behaviors that make our partners uncomfortable. The actions listed below can tear your relationship apart and if they have become part of how you relate to each other, you will have significant problems sooner or later. It's important to avoid the following:

1.     Deceit. If you don't tell the whole truth as soon as possible, when your mate finds out, it could kill your relationship. Whatever it was you did that you need to fess up to, do it now, so it can be forgiven and dropped. The lies only get more complicated as you withhold the truth, and your partner will only distrust you more when those lies are revealed.

2.     Drama. When everything becomes as dramatic as the last scene in Titanic, it just plain wears you out. If you are making mountains out of molehills, there is something else you need from the relationship. Find out what it is and start getting and giving it to each other. Your relationship should be a place of peace, not a stage to control the attention in the room.

3.     Demands. People who want you to do things that tend to make you uncomfortable may discover that if they had asked nicely, you would do your best to give them what they want. But when someone demands attention, sex, or dinner on the table at six, and gets angry with you for not doing their bidding, I think some counseling is in order.

4.     Disrespect. What research tells us is that when partners tend to be disrespectful of one another, their relationship has an 85 percent chance of dying. You simply must get on the same team and make the decision to stop being nasty to each other. No matter how upset you may be, try to explain it in a neutral way, without blame or rancor.

5.     Domination. If you try to control your relationship, you aren't going to have much energy for anything else. Making sure that everything is done your way can be exhausting! Look, we all have our little bouts of OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder), but if your mate starts to cry or leaves the room when you tell him or her to reorganize the dishwasher, you have to ease up.

6.     Discord. No couple gets along all the time. Trust me, you will bump heads more than a few times. The trick is to see the situation for what it really is, a momentary disagreement, which is perfectly normal. What is destructive is walking around holding on to toxic anger and making sure that every move you make bugs your partner.

7.    Drinking/Drugs. When you puts chemicals into your body, it puts you on a different level than your partner and relating will be more difficult. If you become an addict, your behaviors will bring the relationship down and you may not be able to make it work again.

Avoid these actions and you may actually find yourself living happily ever after. If there are behaviors that you need and want to change and you know you could use some help, please don't be afraid to get it. Going to therapy doesn't mean you are broken-it means you are smart enough to solve a problem before it ruins your life and love.

after that, was ko mogawas sa balay for three days tungod sa kauwaw.  only a thoughtful neighbor who came to assure me that it was all in a day and there really was nothing for me to be ashamed of did i get the courage to go out again.

mao nga di na gyod ko moinom ug alcoholic beverage because i know i can get wild.

pag-ingon kuno niya nga czech citizen siya, aw, medyo sayon na para sa taxi driver.  ang problema kay wa pa kahibawo ang driver nga split na diay ang czechoslovakia, didto siya gihatod sa slovakian embassy imbis sa czech republic embassy.  wa gihapon siya angkona, hahaha!

Science and Research / Re: Transhumanism
March 12, 2012, 08:43:31 AM


This is the BCL-2 gene, the gene that is what scientists call the "humanity" gene. This gene, when expressed, sets limitation to our life span.
If this gene is repressed, there would be no limitation to human life. One could live indefinitely with no aging.

The repression of BCL-2 gene = Immortality

March 12, 2012, 08:40:47 AM
One of these pro-apoptotic genes, the BCL-2 gene, is what is responsible for inducing death of tissues when it reaches a certain age. If we were to inhibit or repress the BCL-2 gene, which is found all over our DNA, then we could become immortal.

Quote from: hubag bohol on March 11, 2012, 10:27:09 PM
Although some transhumanists report having religious or spiritual views, they are for the most part atheists, agnostics or secular humanists. A vocal minority of transhumanists, however, follow liberal forms of Eastern philosophies such as Buddhism and Yoga or have merged their transhumanist ideas with established Western religions such as liberal Christianity or Mormonism. Despite the prevailing secular attitude, some transhumanists pursue hopes traditionally espoused by religions, such as "immortality", while several controversial new religious movements, originating in the late 20th century, have explicitly embraced transhumanist goals of transforming the human condition by applying technology to the alteration of the mind and body, such as Raëlism. However, most thinkers associated with the transhumanist movement focus on the practical goals of using technology to help achieve longer and healthier lives; while speculating that future understanding of neurotheology and the application of neurotechnology will enable humans to gain greater control of altered states of consciousness, which were commonly interpreted as "spiritual experiences", and thus achieve more profound self-knowledge. --Wiki




Interesting. In regards to pure scientific theory, it is technically possible to attain "immortality". Within our DNA, we have genes that are responsible for aging and death of tissues and cells. These are what we call BAX genes, as well as the Pro-Apoptotic Genes, there are a plethora of these in our genome.

If a person were to repress or inhibit these genes from transcribing and thus prevent them from manifesting the natural course of aging and cellular and tissue death, then, technically, one can live indefinitely.

By there lies the ultimate question: "Do you really want to live forever?"

Gospel :  John 2:13-25



Since the Passover of the Jews was near,
Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
He found in the temple area those who sold oxen, sheep, and doves,
as well as the money changers seated there.
He made a whip out of cords
and drove them all out of the temple area, with the sheep and oxen,
and spilled the coins of the money changers
and overturned their tables,
and to those who sold doves he said,
"Take these out of here,
and stop making my Father's house a marketplace."
His disciples recalled the words of Scripture,
Zeal for your house will consume me.
At this the Jews answered and said to him,
"What sign can you show us for doing this?"
Jesus answered and said to them,
"Destroy this temple and in three days I will raise it up."
The Jews said,
"This temple has been under construction for forty-six years,
and you will raise it up in three days?"
But he was speaking about the temple of his body.
Therefore, when he was raised from the dead,
his disciples remembered that he had said this,
and they came to believe the Scripture
and the word Jesus had spoken.

While he was in Jerusalem for the feast of Passover,
many began to believe in his name
when they saw the signs he was doing.
But Jesus would not trust himself to them because he knew them all,
and did not need anyone to testify about human nature.
He himself understood it well.

The law of the LORD is perfect,
refreshing the soul;
The decree of the LORD is trustworthy,
giving wisdom to the simple.

R. Lord, you have the words of everlasting life.
The precepts of the LORD are right,
rejoicing the heart;
the command of the LORD is clear,
enlightening the eye.

R. Lord, you have the words of everlasting life.
The fear of the LORD is pure,
enduring forever;
the ordinances of the LORD are true,
all of them just.

R. Lord, you have the words of everlasting life.
They are more precious than gold,
than a heap of purest gold;
sweeter also than syrup
or honey from the comb.

Bible Study / Readings for The Third Sunday of Lent
March 12, 2012, 02:59:14 AM
Reading 1 :  Exodus 20:1-17

In those days, God delivered all these commandments:
"I, the LORD, am your God,
who brought you out of the land of Egypt, that place of slavery.
You shall not have other gods besides me.
You shall not carve idols for yourselves
in the shape of anything in the sky above
or on the earth below or in the waters beneath the earth;
you shall not bow down before them or worship them.
For I, the LORD, your God, am a jealous God,
inflicting punishment for their fathers' wickedness
on the children of those who hate me,
down to the third and fourth generation;
but bestowing mercy down to the thousandth generation
on the children of those who love me and keep my commandments.

"You shall not take the name of the LORD, your God, in vain.
For the LORD will not leave unpunished
the one who takes his name in vain.

"Remember to keep holy the sabbath day.
Six days you may labor and do all your work,
but the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD, your God.
No work may be done then either by you, or your son or daughter,
or your male or female slave, or your beast,
or by the alien who lives with you.
In six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth,
the sea and all that is in them;
but on the seventh day he rested.
That is why the LORD has blessed the sabbath day and made it holy.

"Honor your father and your mother,
that you may have a long life in the land
which the LORD, your God, is giving you.
You shall not kill.
You shall not commit adultery.
You shall not steal.
You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
You shall not covet your neighbor's house.
You shall not covet your neighbor's wife,
nor his male or female slave, nor his ox or ass,
nor anything else that belongs to him."

Beloved Robert,

I thought about you today, out of nowhere, the thought of you comes and captures my mind. I was in contact with your mother as well this week. Do you remember what you said to me this time 6 years ago? We were in the annual International Club Picnic at Woodcock Dam with the rest of the group. I can't help but smile at the jokes that you ushered, oh brother, I had a good time with you and the rest of our friends then.

It is surreal that it's been over 5 years.

Miss  you, Robbo.

Bible Study / A Warning To The Youth
March 11, 2012, 03:30:35 PM
“Don’t let the excitement of youth cause you to forget your Creator. Honor him in your youth before you grow old and say, ‘Life is not pleasant anymore.’ Remember him before the light of the sun, moon, and stars is dim to your old eyes, and rain clouds continually darken your sky. Remember him before your legsâ€"the guards of your houseâ€"start to tremble; and before your shouldersâ€"the strong menâ€"stoop. Remember him before your teethâ€"your few remaining servantsâ€"stop grinding; and before your eyesâ€"the women looking through the windowsâ€"see dimly.”

Ecclesiastes 12:1 -3

“Since prayer is at the bottom of all this, what I want mostly is for men to prayâ€"not shaking angry fists at enemies but raising holy hands to God. And I want women to get in there with the men in humility before God, not primping before a mirror or chasing the latest fashions but doing something beautiful for God and becoming beautiful doing it.”

“In the Lord, however, woman is not independent of man, nor is man independent of woman. For as woman came from man, so also man is born of woman. But everything comes from God.”

Bible Study / Re: In Christ Alone
March 11, 2012, 03:16:46 PM
In Christ alone my hope is found,
He is my light, my strength, my song;
this Cornerstone, this solid Ground,
firm through the fiercest drought and storm.
What heights of love, what depths of peace,
when fears are stilled, when strivings cease!
My Comforter, my All in All,
here in the love of Christ I stand.

In Christ alone! who took on flesh
Fulness of God in helpless babe!
This gift of love and righteousness
Scorned by the ones he came to save:
Till on that cross as Jesus died,
The wrath of God was satisfied -
For every sin on Him was laid;
Here in the death of Christ I live.

There in the ground His body lay
Light of the world by darkness slain:
Then bursting forth in glorious Day
Up from the grave he rose again!
And as He stands in victory
Sin's curse has lost its grip on me,
For I am His and He is mine -
Bought with the precious blood of Christ.

No guilt in life, no fear in death,
This is the power of Christ in me;
From life's first cry to final breath.
Jesus commands my destiny.
No power of hell, no scheme of man,
Can ever pluck me from His hand;
Till He returns or calls me home,
Here in the power of Christ I'll stand.

Inspiration & Hope / Journey Into the Desert
March 11, 2012, 01:44:56 AM
By Father Stefan Starzynski




How many times have we said at the end of Lent, “I wish that I had a better Lent”? Here we are at the beginning of a new Lent. We have another opportunity to begin anew. Lent is about preparing our hearts to receive Jesus on Easter Sunday.

We are told in the scriptures that the Spirit drove Jesus into the desert. The same Spirit drives us into the desert. The desert has two purposes in the scriptures. The desert is the place where we are tested and stripped of the illusions that we have created about ourselves. The Desert is the place where we can hear and meet God.

We find an example of this desert experience in the life of Moses. Moses went into the desert for forty years in exile, but Moses experiences God on Mount Sinai. Moses had to go into the desert for forty years before he met the Living God in the Burning Bush. The Prophet Hosea says that God in the desert comes to us as a Groom meeting His Bride. God prepares us to become his bride in the desert.

One of the titles of Mary is the Rose of Sharon. This rose is a desert Rose. It is small, delicate and beautiful. This Rose springs up in the desert.  In the morning the petals capture a single drop of dew. The rose protects the dew from the heat of the desert. The dew also gives nourishment to the rose. In the desert we meet God and God meets us. The Rose of Sharon is an image of the Blessed Mother and of every Christian. The Dew is an Image of Jesus.

We are called to be like Mary and receive the dew of God’s Word. In the desert of Lent our hearts are made more sensitive to the small ways that God comes to us.

How many people say that they have a hard time hearing God? In order to be able to hear God we first have to enter into the desert. May this Lent be a time when we make a journey into the desert in order to hear the still small voice of God.

May we come to know that we are God’s precious rose in the desert of the world.
