The two presidential candidates clashed Friday night over taxes, spending and national security as Sen. Barack Obama painted his rival as a loyal supporter of failed Republican policies while Sen. John McCain charged that his Democratic challenger was a naive liberal who "doesn't understand" the world's most grave challenges.
With tens of millions of Americans watching, both men gave little ground in a debate that was supposed to focus solely on foreign affairs but frequently drifted into questions of the current economic crisis.
Mr. McCain pointedly distanced himself from Mr. Bush, calling himself a "maverick of the Senate."
SCARY POINT ...Almost leads one to think of his stubbornness to the right info or suggestions made by his cabinet.His preoccupation with "getting into the office" has shown his one-sided agenda...win the presidency at any cost.
"I have opposed the president on spending, on climate change, on torture of prisoners, on Guantanamo Bay … on the way that the Iraq war was conducted. I have a long record and the American people know me very well," the Republican candidate said, portraying himself as better equipped to bring bipartisan consensus to Washington.
Trying to distance himself from bush, he stammered on.
"Senator Obama has the most liberal voting record in the Senate," Mr. McCain said at one point.
Mr. Obama shot back, "Mostly that's just me opposing George Bush's wrong-headed policies."
Both men said they are likely to support the Wall Street bailout package being crafted in Washington, but Mr. Obama went farther, blaming the problem on Mr. Bush and Mr. McCain.
"We've had years in which the reigning economic ideology has been what's good for Wall Street, but not what's good for Main Street," Mr. Obama said.
"TOUCHE" !
Just hours before the debate it had been unclear whether it would even take place. Mr. McCain had proposed postponing the affair so he and Mr. Obama could help broker a bailout agreement in Washington. He also unilaterally suspended his campaign ads.
But Mr. Obama refused to delay the debate, arguing presidents must handle more than one issue. And facing pressure from even within his own party, Mr. McCain reversed course Friday morning, saying that even though no deal was done he felt good enough about its progress to restart his campaign.
Little new ground was broken on the Iraq war, with Mr. Obama saying Mr. McCain was wrong to vote for the war in 2002 and Mr. McCain accusing Mr. Obama of being wrong on how to save the war effort.
"The next president of the United States is going to have to decide how we leave, when we leave, and what we leave behind," not whether to invade, Mr. McCain said, repeatedly criticizing Mr. Obama for opposing the troop surge that has helped quell violence.
But Mr. Obama said by joining Mr. Bush in supporting the war at the beginning, Mr. McCain cannot see a path out.
"John, you like to pretend like the war started in 2007. You talk about the surge, the war started in 2003," he said. "And at the time, when the war started, you said it was going to be quick and easy. You said we knew where the weapons of mass destruction were. You were wrong. You said that we were going to be greeted as liberators. You were wrong."

SIMPLE PEST CONTROL
SIMPLE PEST CONTROL FOR YOUR HOME
Every home has to eventually DEAL with pests such as insects, birds, and rodents. But don't worry: There are time-proven ways to deter and eradicate these little "problems". I've collected some here:
SOME "NATURAL BORN KILLERS" :
Cucumbers are one example of natural pest control. It's using natural and generally non-toxic ingredients to repel or get rid of pests including ants, wasps, mites, moths, flies and other insects.
Using the peel can deter ants from coming in.
So,Why use toxic chemicals all over your house.There is growing evidence that synthetic pesticides pose a health risk to humans and animals.
Another way to think of protection is to grow certain plants around the perimeter of your home. They not only look nice, but will also deter pests. Plants known to repel ants and aphids include: spearmint, peppermint and pennyroyal.
Eucalyptus is another fantastic pest repeller.
You can use the same trick for fly control. Just substitute the above plants with mint and basil which repel flies, but smell good to humans.
ROACH CONTROL :
Baking soda and powdered sugar mixed in equal parts is a good roach killer. Just spread around the area where you see roaches and soon you won't see them anymore. (Boric Acid, while slightly more toxic, is naturally occurring and is another way to get rid of them.)This is the same ingredient found in TEAM BORAX laundry booster.
FLEA CONTROL :
Grind up rosemary leaves into a fine dust and sprinkle it onto your pet or bedding to ward off fleas.Some Aromatic oils work also , but may be too strong on your pet.
SNEAKY "FLY TRAP" :
Try this amazing "fly trap"-
First,obtain a narrow necked bottle (like a wine bottle)...then put a small amount of sweet fruit,(I.E Watermelon, Mango, Hard candy, or even small piece of meat)into bottom of bottle. Add a few drops of water.Place where flies have been a problem.
Flies will enter bottle to feast,but will NOT be able to get out !!!!
Vinegar is a great weed killer.just use WHITE vinegar on those pesky weeds to rid yourself of them.Use only the strongest vinegar you can find since most are diluted.
SLUG CONTROL :
Here are two methods to deal with slugs and snails ;
HUMANE WAY :
Take an old small flower pot or pie tin and turn upside down. Then "prop" up edge with a small stone to allow some clearance.When the day becomes hot,slugs and snails will seek comfort under your "shelter".Now at the end of the day,check underneath and you will find your pests.You can either dispose of them by trash or SHOE !!!
SECOND METHOD :
Use old saucer or plate,add some beer, just keep most for you.Snails will drink and die.
While natural pest control products are a great step up from most commercial insecticides, you should still be careful about using them. Don't just leap at something that cures the symptom - look for the underlying cause and seek a solution for that problem. Overuse can end up creating new problems - getting rid of one pest in exchange for another types.
That said, natural pest control can be a great non-toxic solution to keeping your garden and home pest free.Remember when dealing with pests it is always a "control" solution.Pests have been around for millions of years and can dominate your home and garden.

THE DIVORCE DIET
A few years back , I seemed to be on some new fad diet. I guess it started when I "lost" about 130 lbs. ....namely my EX. Well,little did i know that this sudden weight loss would bring me change. Dubbed the DIVORCE DIET , I proceeded to be as phyisically fit as i can to spite my Ex-wife. Tedious workouts,eating good things weren't enough.My 'inner-fat" had to be purged,and quickly. My inner fat consisted of bad thoughts, heavy side order of stress and low esteem.
After this enormous weight was now lifted, I could enjoy life like i should. Without reporting to anyone, being on my time and enjoying some freedom is the ultimate benefit . I realized that my physical state was never the "problem" , only that verbal abuse was weight i could not bear. Sometimes the guys are not the bad guys , there are just bad people.
Sure , i indulged. Sometimes it was food, sometimes it was booze , but i finally saw the light. This type of physical torment was easily changed, i feel "healthier'.
My goal is not to be "hollywood healthy' but be "happy'......

TOP 10 Herbal Wonders for Men
Last time I was at a local CVS Drugstore I noticed that they carry hundreds of different herbs that claim to do amazing things. If I was to take all of them, not only would I be super smart, but I would also have sexy skin, a six pack stomach, great hair, be an amazing lover, and all of the women would want me just by smelling my “pheromones.” I doubt that I can have all of that just by taking some pills, but as amazing and unrealistic as the claims are, there are definite benefits to certain herbs. We all know that Ginkgo is for mental alertness and Echinacea is for immunity strength, but what herbs are best for male sexual performance? We will discuss the top ten male enhancement herbs here and finish with a few to avoid.
1. GINKGO BILOBA LEAF – I wanted to start with ginkgo because it is commonly thought of as an herb to help with memory and brain function. This is in fact correct, however only covers one scope of the herb's benefits. Ginkgo works by expanding the capacity of blood flow through your veins and arteries therefore that effect benefits many parts of the body from the increased oxygen supply to the brain, which allows better brain function, to fuller and harder erections as more blood is supplied to the penis.
A few concerns with ginkgo are, because of the increased blood flow, those with bleeding disorders, especially those whose blood fails to coagulate on a wound, should take more precaution as more blood flow will slow the coagulation process. The second concern is for those who prefer ginkgo biloba seeds over the leaf. Uncooked ginkgo biloba seeds have shown some small levels of toxins, so if you prefer the seeds it is advised to cook them prior to ingestion. Finally, as with any new addition to your diet, some people have claimed a minor upset stomach and diarrhea.
The recommended concentration is 24% flavones and 6% terpene lactones. The usual dosage is 120mg to 160mg per day.
2. EPIMEDIUM LEAF EXTRACT – The next herb is epimedium leaf or commonly known as horny goat weed. The origins of epimedium is from goat herders who noticed that when their flock ate the weed their sexual activity was noticeably increased, thus the name. Discovery Channel did a study on horny goat weed. They found that it is the number one most prescribed solution to sexual dysfunction by professional doctors in China. Although little is known about how horny goat weed actually works, it has shown significant increases in libido and vitality in both men and women, restore sexual function in men, and help with discomfort during menopause in women.
To this day there have not been any known side effects with horny goat weed, other than the typical minor upset stomach and diarrhea when something new is added to your diet.
It is recommended that your intake of horny goat weed is concentrated enough to have at least 10% icariin. Generally 1000MG to 2000MG is a sufficient daily dosage.
3. HAWTHORN BERRY – The hawthorn berry is another herb that is generally used to treat one concern, yet its benefits extend further. The hawthorn berry is primarily used to treat heart problems. It strengthens the heart allowing it to pump more blood. This, of course, translates into more blood flowing into your penis. Thus allowing for harder, fuller erections and increased pleasure from orgasm.
A few concerns with the hawthorn berry are that studies show that it does lower blood pressure a little bit so if you have very low blood pressure you may need to consult with a physician. And as usual some have reported a minor upset stomach and diarrhea.
The daily recommended dosage for the hawthorn berry is 160mg to 900mg concentrated to 2% to 3% flavonoids or 18% to 20% oligomeric procyanidins.
4. SAW PALMETTO BERRY – The saw palmetto berry is a berry that is commonly used for urological problems. The most common use for it is to bring an enlarged prostate back to regular size. However most studies indicate that long term use (12 months or more) of saw palmetto also eased urination and increased sexual function significantly.
One of the few things about saw palmetto berries is that although there have been many studies done on saw palmetto, there have not been any reported side effects, none even complained about upset stomach or diarrhea.
320mg per day standardized to not less than 85% fatty acids is the recommended dosage for saw palmetto berries.
5. CATUABA BARK EXTRACT – The catuaba is a Brazilian, primarily in the Amazon rainforest, tree whose bark has been used for thousands of years as an all around nervous system revitalizer. It restores your nervous system function bringing about increased brain function, reduced nervousness, better sleep and improved sexual function. This is the herb that has helped the 60, 70, 80 even 90 year olds in Brazil have a healthy sex life naturally.
There are no known side effects with catuaba except the occasional upset stomach and diarrhea when it is first introduced to the diet. The main concern is that you are actually purchasing real catuaba bark, as there are several exporters who export the bark as catuaba, but it is in fact from the wrong tree. There are 2 forms of catuaba tree that supplies the actual bark that is medicinally known for its benefits and the scientific names for these two is Erythroxylum catuaba and Trichilia catigua.
The standard daily dose is 1000mg to 2000mg. There has not been any standardization of the extract’s concentration.
6. MUIRA PAUMA BARK EXTRACT – The muira pauma is another rainforest tree found in South America and Africa. This plant’s benefits also focus on the nervous system to treat various ailments such as paralysis, beri-beri, rheumatism, grippe, and cardiac and gastrointestinal weakness, baldness and sexual dysfunction, such as impotence, infertility and menstrual disturbances.
There are no reported side effects from muira pauma except the occasional upset stomach and diarrhea when it is first introduced to the diet. It is also commonly exported as muira pauma bark extract from a similar tree whose bark does not have the same medical benefits, the scientific name for it is Liriosma ovate, so be sure that before you purchase muira pauma that it does not come from this tree.
The recommended dosage is 1500mg daily and there are no concentration standards for the muira pauma bark extract.
7. CUSCUTA SEED EXTRACT – The cuscata is commonly known as dodder plant and it is commonly used to increase sperm production and its fertility. New research has shown that it helps with treating impotence.
There are rumors that cuscuta seed extract, when ingested in high quantities, caused lack of sleep. There are no case studies showing this effect as the studies done use standard dosages when administering it. There have also never been any claims of upset stomach or diarrhea with cuscuta seed extract.
The recommended dosage is 10g to 15g boiled in 3 cups of water for 20 minutes, some have said to increase that dosage up to 25 grams of cuscuta seed extract in 3 cups of water each day. It is standardized to 2.5% flavonoids.
8. ASIAN GINSENG – There are several kinds of ginseng available on the market today, but the one that shows the most sexual function benefit is the asian ginseng. It is commonly used to restore energy both physically and mentally and in sexual function it has a significant benefit in preventing premature ejaculation.
Asian ginseng has similar side effects as other forms of ginseng which include difficulty falling asleep when taken in large quantities and an upset stomach when it is first introduced to the diet.
A daily dosage is 200mg to 600mg, standardized to contain 4% to 5% ginsenosides.
9. TRIBULUS TERRESTRIS – The tribulus terrestris is a plant native to the warm climates of southern Europe and Asia, throughout Africa and in northern Australia, although it is found in North and South America as well now. Its primary use is for the purpose of increased sex drive by restoring hormone levels to normal range, primarily testosterone.
There are no reported side effects from tribulus terrestris except the occasional upset stomach when it is first introduced to your diet.
750mg per day is the recommended dosage of tribulus terrestris, standardized for at least 30% to 45% steroidal saponins (furostanol).
10. DAMIANA – Damiana is found primarily in Central and South America. It is recorded being used as early back as the ancient Mayan civilization to prepare for lovemaking. Today it is used to relieve headaches, control bed wetting, better control of the muscles in the urinary tract, as an aphrodisiac and to enhance orgasms.
There are no known side effects of damiana even the upset stomach that is common to new ingredients being added to your diet is unheard of.
The recommended dosage is 750mg to 1000mg per day. There is no standardization for damiana.
All of the above herbs have been listed as safe on the US government website when taken in recommended dosages. However I wanted to make you aware of an herb that is very popular for male enhancement, but it has a serious side effect. The bark of the Yohimbe (aka Yohimbine) tree is known for its potency in increasing sexual function however it can and very often does cause very serious damage to the liver. In fact it is banned for import in several different countries. Please use caution when taking this herb, especially if already have liver problems.
On a Side note ...One particular "HERB" that lays claim to fun in the bedroom is "MARIJUANA".Although considered illegal for a number of reasons,it has remarkable sexual properties.There is little known side effects other than Increased sexual awareness, body relaxation, fuller and firmer erections due to increased blood flow.I personally have had some of the most intense sex with a slight "buzz".There is no particular dose to take per say,but a couple of "hits" have been a suggested amount.
Of course use your best judgement when considering this,I am not condoning any illegal activity,but I have had wonderful results.
(Make sure you have some Pizza around ,you will get hungry) :)
You will find that all of the above herbs when taken alone will improve your sexual functionality, but when they are combined the effects are compounded. So next time you walk into CVS OR even Walmart, you will be able to better distinguish between at least a small section of the natural supplements isle and enhance your love life considerably.

WOMEN AND SELF-DEFENSE
In such an insecure world, it is far more difficult for a woman to survive as compared to their male counterpart. But all is not lost because there are several methods or weapons that a woman can use to thwart an assaulter. One of the most powerful and popular weapons is the pepper spray, which has a far-reaching effect. The motive behind using pepper sprays as opposed to lethal weapons like Guns is that pepper sprays or Tasers will not kill the assaulter or anyone trying to commit crime on a woman but at the same time, these weapons are extremely effective and can save a woman’s life and dignity.
The different types of crimes on women include:
• Carjacking
• Rape
• Murder & Theft
• Theft
• Sexual abuse
• Domestic violence
• Purse snatching
• Stalking
• Threats
• Property crimes
• Sexual harassment in the office
Of all these crimes, rape, sexual abuse, sexual harassment in office premises and stalking has a higher rate than other crimes. In such a crime, a woman can use a pepper spray, Taser or martial art techniques for self defense.
The Pepper Spray
The Pepper spray is also called an OC spray, where OC stands for Oleoresin Capsicum. It is basically a powerful lachrymatory agent, a chemical compound that can cause severe irritation in the eyes and ears and even lead to temporary blindness and severe pain. The pepper spray is used the world over by women to protect them against any anti-social element and have considerably brought down the number of sexual molestation and rape in many countries.
The Pepper spray can be used for various purposes like controlling a mob, controlling riot and even as a weapon of self-defense against animals like bears, wolves, and dogs. It is completely non-lethal although it can be deadly if not used in small quantities. In 1995, the American Civil Liberties Union had documented 14 cases of pepper spray use that turned fatal. If you spray an entire can of Pepper Spray into someone’s eyes then in all probability the subject will go permanently blind.
The primary ingredient in Pepper spray is called capsaicin. Capsaicin is a chemical compound that can be derived from the fruits of a special plant belonging to the Capsicum genus and chillies. There are several different types of Pepper spray in use like Mace Pepper Sprays, Wildfire Pepper Spray, Lipstick Pepper Spray, and a specific version called the PAVA Pepper Spray. The PAVA Pepper Spray has capsaicin, pelargonic acid vanillylamide or desmethyldihydrocapsaicin and it is extensively used in England. A synthetic counterpart of the pepper spray is called the pelargonic acid morpholide. This was developed in Russia and is widely used there.
Pepper sprays are available in canisters and are considered to be an inflammatory. The moment you use pepper spray on a subject, it will cause severe irritation in the eyes and closing of the eye. Some of the other symptoms include a running nose, difficulty in breathing, and coughing apart from the tears. The duration of a Pepper spray effect actually depends on the amount of spray you have used but on an average it can last from anywhere between thirty minutes to an hour.
Here are some important tips:
1. When you are carrying a can of pepper spray in your hand, your thumb should be on the top of your trigger.
2. If your attacker comes too close too you then back up a little so that you are in a better position to use the spray.
3. Use a good amount of spray so that the pepper can do its job as quickly as possible.
4. While the attacker is in pain and temporarily blind, you should try to get out of there as fast as you can.
TASER C2
One of the best self-defense weapons is a stun gun like the Taser C2. There are several benefits of owning or using a Taser C2 stun gun. It is handy and can be carried just about anywhere. It can be hid in the purse as it is of the size of a TV remote and can be used anywhere, anytime. It can be easily found over the internet and costs around $300.
The Taser C2 delivers a charge or electric current the moment it comes into direct contact with the attacker or the subject in question. The Taser C2 has a range of 15 feet and it can pierce through 2 inches of clothing. The range will help any woman to prepare and defend herself well in advance.
The Taser C2 is an electronically controlled device or ECD. The cartridge consists of two electrodes, which are propelled through the air with the help of two wires and compressed nitrogen. The electrodes pierce through the clothing and stick to the skin. Electrical pulses are transmitted through the wires to the electrodes and into the body of the attacker. The effect is stunning and the attacker will go into a shock. The effect will last long enough for you to flee from there or call for law enforcement agents. The Taser C2 can be fired to anywhere on the body and is non-lethal hence can be used extensively by women to thwart any attack.
Martial Arts
The last line of defense is Martial Arts, which combined with any of the above can prove to be a lethal combination. Martial Arts are not for everyone not because the training is difficult but because it is time consuming too. Martial art is considered to be a lethal force and you might end up killing your attacker. There are different types of martial art forms that can be learnt quickly like Judo, Karate, Tae kwon do, and Tai Chi. Karate and Tae kwon do are by far the most popular forms and can also cause severe injury to the attacker.
There are certain parts of the human body, which are prone to severe injuries like the face, forehead, neck, abdomen, and groin. You can hit a man or your attacker in the groin and the nose for maximum impact. The strongest weapons of a woman’s body include the head, elbow, and knees. Martial art will teach you to use these body parts effectively to disable or wound your opponent temporarily. A hit with the elbow to the nose will not only stun them but also give you enough time to get away.
The only drawback of Martial arts is that it is effective only in close combat situations but if your subject is fleeing away or is at a distance then the Taser and the Pepper Spray can prove to be highly effective.
The different types of crimes on women include:
• Carjacking
• Rape
• Murder & Theft
• Theft
• Sexual abuse
• Domestic violence
• Purse snatching
• Stalking
• Threats
• Property crimes
• Sexual harassment in the office
Of all these crimes, rape, sexual abuse, sexual harassment in office premises and stalking has a higher rate than other crimes. In such a crime, a woman can use a pepper spray, Taser or martial art techniques for self defense.
The Pepper Spray
The Pepper spray is also called an OC spray, where OC stands for Oleoresin Capsicum. It is basically a powerful lachrymatory agent, a chemical compound that can cause severe irritation in the eyes and ears and even lead to temporary blindness and severe pain. The pepper spray is used the world over by women to protect them against any anti-social element and have considerably brought down the number of sexual molestation and rape in many countries.
The Pepper spray can be used for various purposes like controlling a mob, controlling riot and even as a weapon of self-defense against animals like bears, wolves, and dogs. It is completely non-lethal although it can be deadly if not used in small quantities. In 1995, the American Civil Liberties Union had documented 14 cases of pepper spray use that turned fatal. If you spray an entire can of Pepper Spray into someone’s eyes then in all probability the subject will go permanently blind.
The primary ingredient in Pepper spray is called capsaicin. Capsaicin is a chemical compound that can be derived from the fruits of a special plant belonging to the Capsicum genus and chillies. There are several different types of Pepper spray in use like Mace Pepper Sprays, Wildfire Pepper Spray, Lipstick Pepper Spray, and a specific version called the PAVA Pepper Spray. The PAVA Pepper Spray has capsaicin, pelargonic acid vanillylamide or desmethyldihydrocapsaicin and it is extensively used in England. A synthetic counterpart of the pepper spray is called the pelargonic acid morpholide. This was developed in Russia and is widely used there.
Pepper sprays are available in canisters and are considered to be an inflammatory. The moment you use pepper spray on a subject, it will cause severe irritation in the eyes and closing of the eye. Some of the other symptoms include a running nose, difficulty in breathing, and coughing apart from the tears. The duration of a Pepper spray effect actually depends on the amount of spray you have used but on an average it can last from anywhere between thirty minutes to an hour.
Here are some important tips:
1. When you are carrying a can of pepper spray in your hand, your thumb should be on the top of your trigger.
2. If your attacker comes too close too you then back up a little so that you are in a better position to use the spray.
3. Use a good amount of spray so that the pepper can do its job as quickly as possible.
4. While the attacker is in pain and temporarily blind, you should try to get out of there as fast as you can.

Damn It's HOT HOT HOT
CALIFORNIA IS SCORCHIN' .......
Triple digit weather is here,suntan lotion,screaming ghetto hids and all.
Don't get me wrong...I love the beach,but when the sand is covered with garbage,diapers,condoms and god knows what else,it's probably best to watch where to go.
California beaches are some of the worst looking after a weekend. And people DON"T CARE !!!!
I swear i feel like dropping a foot up some of those kid's asses.They throw cans,bury waste and food under the sand,leaving everything like some shithole.
Nearby sportfishing is just as reckless,third world fishermen and ladies,catch undersize fish and hide them from the game wardens that walk about.I have been witness to the same fishermen "catch" STARFISH,OCTOPUS OR SOME OTHER HELPLESS CREATURE(knowing full well it was not going to be eaten),hand it over to some kids to oogle over,just to have them "smash" it on the ground or "keep" them.
AM I THE ONLY ONE THAT THINKS THIS IS SOME BULLSHIT ??????

HAPPY Birthday Tayleur
Wow ....Sweet Sixteen !!!
Seems just like yesterday when i remembered you such a small little girl. You always wanted "fry fry"s" (French Fries) to eat. I also remembered you wearing all the frilly , girly baby clothes we would buy you to wear, just so we could show you off.
I do miss those times when you were so small and would yell "Daddy !!!" when i would get home from work....I would get the best hugs and kisses. Even though you are "more" grown up and think parents are "embarrassing" , I love you just as much.
I wish you the best on your special day , because when you were born, it was my "special" day too.

DIABETES SUCKS
Well,it seems i got a problem....started day after i went to a recent concert at the HOUSE OF BLUES.
The ADICTS were playing and it kicked ass !!!!
Anyways , I woke up the next day eith what is called a EYE FLOATER , went to the V.A. hospital to get checked (U.S.ARMY VET),and was told i have diabetes and tha i will need laser surgery to correct.
Please Read the following , Because this can be VERY common :
What are Floaters?
A floater is the term commonly used to describe small spots in your field of vision. Floaters cast shadows over the retina (the light-sensitive inner layer of the eye) and the retina in turn then sends visual signals to the brain, resulting in an image being seen.
PROBLEMS ASSOCIATED WITH "FLOATERS"
Degenerative changes occur in the vitreous that shrink and may detach from the retina. This can cause a small amount of bleeding and is particularly common amongst people who are nearsighted or have had cataract surgery. Floaters that are caused by bleeding from an abnormal growth of blood vessels can lead to hemorrhages inside the eye. DIABETES
Abnormal blood vessel growth can also lead to scar tissue that tends to shrink and this shrinkage causes wrinkling, dragging, distortion, detachment or tearing of the retina.
Help for Floaters
If floaters persist and symptoms are worrying, it is advisable to have a thorough eye examination. Generally, if the number of floaters in the eye have increased or worsened, you should have it diagnosed and treated as quickly as possible. In most cases, floaters do not require treatment because eventually they do disappear.
When floaters appear in your line of vision, you should try to move your eye around or try looking up or down to move the floaters. There are no medications available to treat floaters. However, if floaters occur as a result of inflammatory eye disease, certain medications may be prescribed to treat the inflammation.
In more severe cases, surgery may be needed to remove floaters and prevent blindness. Surgical options include procedures such as vitrectomy and laser eye treatments like conventional LASIK are performed. Vitrectomy helps to remove scar tissue, clear blood and debris from the eye while LASIK corrects visual impairment.
My doctor explained this condition i have with ABNORMAL VESSEL GROWTH , and suggested laser surgery to correct.Even as i type it moves in and out of my field of vision.
It is very annoying.
Soon, I will be screened, but i am sure i will be diagnosed with diabetes.
How scary to hear "YOU HAVE BEEN DIAGNOSED" !!!!
I mean you go through life and never expect to hear theses things,I know it's not the end of the world, but I never thought i would be in this new era of my life.

SIGNS OF A HAUNTING
SIGNS OF A RESIDUAL HAUNTING: Sometimes, this type of activity can make itself known in similar ways to an "Intelligent" haunting, but the most important signs will be different. A spirit, or an image in this case, will not interact with any of the living occupants of the location.
The activity, and the sightings, will be random. There will be no missing items. While doors and windows may open and close by themselves, it will be because of energy expending itself and not because of spirit activity. Commonly reported in these cases are sounds of footsteps, walking and breathing and odd, usually repetitive sounds. Apparitions are commonly reported but they will not notice the living persons around them and will usually repeat the same actions over and over again. It is much more common to visibly spot an image in this type of haunting but remember, there will be no interaction with it.
Like a repeating set of events will occur commonly during the same time or actual location,(think of a recording played in a loop).
Ghosts have been known to interact with the living or just make acknowledgment with a quick glance or eye contact. In other accounts the ghost seems unaware of the presence of living people and appears to be acting out some part of their own life.
SIGNS OF AN INTELLIGENT HAUNTING: The spirit will usually manifest itself in physical ways like slamming, opening and unlocking doors and windows; strange sounds; voices; cold chills and sometimes odors. It may make itself seen and it will most likely look as it did when alive.
The witness should be sure however, that the visible spirit seems to interact and is not just a sighting.
The annoyance factor with this type of haunting will be very high as the spirit seeks to get the attention of the living occupants at or in the location. These spirits are known for hiding objects; keys,small items, moving things about; turning things off and on and other nuisances that would be similar to a child seeking attention. In this sort of case, the spirit may be looking for assistance to pass over or to accomplish a certain task. It has also been documented that the spirit may just be seeking company from the residents, or even from the investigators themselves.
EVP recordings and other evidence can be done from this type of haunting.
There are different types of entities that will manifest :
# Ghost: Soul, Spirit The disembodied spirit of a dead person, conceived of an appearing to the living as a pale, shadowy apparition.(shadow. uneven form, mist, energy,cloud ).
# Phantom: Something that seems to appear but has no physical exsistance; Apparition, Vision, Spector. Something to be feared or deaded.
# Wraith: Guardian; a ghost. Spectral figure of a person supposedly seen as a premonition just before that person dies.
# Poltergeist: Responsible for mysterious noisy disturbances or moving, misplacing of objects. Some poltergeists have been reported to cause physical harm to people.(unsettled ghost that constantly moves , throws , slams ,objects and annoys people around it.) (hair can be pulled , face slapped and physical harm.)
When dealing with ghosts don't look for any rules or absolutes. There are circumstances that seem to create a more ghostly atmosphere, but there are no guarantees on predicting when and where a ghost will appear.
When it comes to ghost hunting the only rule is be ready for anything.
Recurring Hauntings/Ghosts
Recurring apparitions are ghosts that occur in regular cycles over a period of time, usually once annually. This type of ghost sighting is one of the most popular. The date of manifestation usually occurs on an anniversary date or a day of special importance to the deceased. These apparitions can include both ghosts of people and animals. Reports of recurring ghosts include individuals who have committed suicide, murder victims, and entire phantom armies marching across battlefields. Old hospitals, Graveyards , Areas of tragedies/Accidents are common places to witness these events.
SIGNS OF POLTERGEIST ACTIVITY: The already mentioned types of physical activity are most common in these cases, usually involving the violent manipulation of household and stationary objects, which seem to move about "under their own power". Watch for these reports of phenomena to escalate for a period as time goes by. Also watch for a female adolescent to be present in the household or for all of the activity to be centered around one person in particular. It is common that none of the activity will take place unless that person is present at the time.
The earliest known reports of poltergeists date back to the ancient Romans. Other poltergeist records can be found in the medieval times of China and Germany. The reports indicate unexplainable events such as throwing dirt, flying objects, awful smells, loud noises, unexplained lights and ghostly apparitions. All of which are very similar to the still ongoing reports of modern poltergeists. Why exactly poltergeist activity occurs has been under debate by experts and scientists for decades. Poltergeists usually begin and end abruptly. The typical incident can last for several hours or several years.
The differences between poltergeist activity and a haunting can be very hard to distinguish. In the early stages of a poltergeist it may be impossible. Haunts and poltergeists do share basic aspects, (apparitions, strange noises, odors, moving or disappearing objects, etc.).
If you feel that you are encountering poltergeist activity don't wait to look for help. Find a priest or local paranormal research group in your area. Some poltergeist cases can be exorcised before they have the chance of becoming dangerous. If you think that the poltergeist is linked to an object in you possession get rid of that object right away.
Don't try to move or run away from a poltergeist. It's a waste of time. If the poltergeist is linked to a person or object it will follow right along with you. The best thing to do is seek out professional help as soon as you can.
