Did you know it is “National Survivors of Suicide Day” ….Sad that we actually have a day for this

National Survivors of Suicide Day is a day of healing for those who have lost someone to suicide. It was created by U.S. Senate resolution in 1999 through the efforts of Sen. Harry Reid of Nevada, who lost his father to suicide. …

Sad that we actually have a day for this, maybe we need a “National Listen to a Friend Day”…it takes a prominent person in our so call equal society to bring this issue to the masses. So take time to really know your friends, and just maybe they will be your friends for life…

Sorrow + Action = MARS Changing where amateur racers can go to do there thing!

Read here for more information on how you can help make a difference. Securing tougher street racing laws has been an ongoing battle for the last three-year battle. Click Here

The state of Florida’s street racing law was declared unconstitutional in 2007, because the definition of illegal street racing was too vague.

The Florida legislators finally approved a law only fined spectators. In 2008, with the help of Orange County Commissioner Linda Stewart.

M.A.R.S., collected 17,000 signatures, prompting legislators to finally change the law so racers could be fined.

Lawmakers also increased the time street racing cars are impounded, from 10 days to 30 days.

 

Mothers Against Racing in the Streets

This  year, MARS members
said they hope to convince
legislators to consider
making street racing
a felony for third-time
offenders, and to double
the fines and suspensions
for both racers and spectators.

Biggest Meteor Shower of the Modern Age….Experience it!

Leonid Meteor Shower 2009

Biggest Meteor Shower of the Modern Age


Host: 	Night Sky
Network: Global
Start Time: Monday, November 16, 2009 at 11:00pm
End Time: Wednesday, November 18, 2009 at 4:00am
Location: The Skies of the World

It is going to be very great with one of the biggest meteor
shower events of our lifetime. I would recommend everyone mark
their calendars for this historic event. Plus it is just going
to be mad cool.

On Nov. 17, 2009, Earth will pass through the 1466 stream again,
but this time closer to the center. Based on the number
of meteors observed in 2008, Vaubaillon can estimate the strength
of the coming display: five hundred or more Leonids per hour.
The times provided are optimal view hours for PST,
but the Leonid Meteor shower may last up to two days so there
may be other times for optimal viewing.

I wonder if they'll write a song about this one?
Here are lyrics to one that was written about a Meteor shower of 1833

Stars Fell on Alabama" is the title 
of a 1934 jazz standard 
composed by Frank Perkins 
with lyrics by Mitchell Parish.

We lived our little drama,

We kissed in a field of white,

And stars fell on Alabama,

Last night.

I can’t forget the glamor,

Your eyes held a tender light,

And stars fell on Alabama,

Last night

I never planned in my imagination,

A situation – so heavenly,

A fairy land where no one else could enter,

And in the center – just you and me.

My heart beat like a hammer,

My arms wound around you tight,

And stars fell on Alabama,

Last night.

Insanity on steroids [finn perkins 7.07.2006]

Insanity on steroids

Smooth out the rough edges of your soul.
Complete the circle, to make you whole.
Take a moment to give, the moment will give back
Make a move toward a future without pain
Going backwards is just insanity on steroids

Let the heart and soul come together.
Complete the circle, to make you whole
Take a moment to give, the moment will give back
Make a move toward a future without pain
Going backwards is just insanity on steroids

The lacking understanding and the wiliness to try will
only lead you down a road of sadness and unrelenting lies.
Complete the circle, to make you whole
Take a moment to give, the moment will give back
Make a move toward a future without pain
Going backwards is just insanity on steroids

You will find what you gain from the changes you choose
to make will far out weigh the pain and the wait.
Complete the circle, to make you whole
Take a moment to give, the moment will give back
Make a move toward a future without pain
Going backwards is just insanity on steroids
