5 Super-Exciting Date Ideas

Want to impress your date with something other than a cookie-cutter cappuccino date? Want to try something that will make for a very memorable get-together? Then try upping the thrill factor of your dates. These extreme activities don’t just get your blood pumping because they’re physically challenging—they actually increase the chemistry you have with your companion. “The response you have to an element of danger gets processed in the brainstem in the exact same way as sexual arousal,” explains Paul Dobransky, M.D., author of The Secret Psychology of How We Fall in Love (www.womenshappiness.com). These adventurous activities also bring out each person’s true personality. “You both get to find out how you respond to fear, spontaneity, and frustration; you’ll have to compromise and work together, too,” says Dr. Dobransky. That accelerated insight can speed up a budding bond (or help you realize sooner rather than later that there’s no “there” there for the two of you). Sold yet? Here are six fun ideas to start planning. “Just don’t get so heavy on the physical that you forget to actually get to know the person,” says Dr. Dobransky. “It’s smart to grab a bite or do something low-key afterward.” When you do have a conversation after sharing such an intense experience, you’ll take your new relationship to a whole new level.
Rope your date inYou’ll scale new heights of accomplishment during a rock-climbing date for two at an indoor gym. You’ll start by learning how to tie the right knots, secure your harness, and work the device that keeps your cutie safely suspended by ropes while he or she is climbing. An ascent that looks easy can become a whole other story when you’re twenty-odd feet above the floor, scared and sweaty, and forced to rely on your partner for some old-fashioned, “You can do it!”-style support. Getting up and down the wall requires a steady back-and-forth of climbing commands. “Even as you’re enjoying the fun physical activity, you’re learning to develop communication with the person, which is fundamental to any relationship,” says Bill Baer, climbing gym director at Manhattan Plaza Health Club (www.mphc.com) in New York City. “And not only do you build trust in your partner, but you trust yourself to do things properly for the other person.” Oh, and the view from the ground of your date’s bum ain’t bad, either. To find a climbing gym in your area, visit www.indoorclimbing.com. Dive into a derbyAthletic, take-no-prisoners types who want a down and dirty date need look no further than a roller-derby lesson or game. “It’s such a physical, exciting sport that people play really passionately, and that spills over into how you feel about your teammate,” says Tim Patten, manager of the Bay City Bombers (www.baycitybombers.com) roller derby league in San Francisco. The rules of roller derby are basically this: Two teams of five skate around a rink. At the signal, one player breaks ahead and attempts to lap the members of the other team. For every opposing skater he or she passes, the team gets a point. The scorer’s four teammates can skate in strategic formations to try to help him or her blaze past the opponents. What could get your heart pounding more than high-speed cardio when you’re trying to help your partner score points? To find a roller derby facility in your area, do a search for “roller derby” plus your city. If no classes are offered, email the coach or trainer and ask about a private session. Make a splashWhen it comes to summer dayventures, whitewater rafting may just be the ideal sport, surrounded by nature and cool, rushing waters. With no cell phones or bikini bodies to distract you, you get to focus all your attention on your date. While the wild waters may seem high-octane, what surprises many rafters is just how relaxing and romantic the experience can be for a couple. “The guides are really in charge, so your challenge is to let go and actually take in the unique settings and sensations,” says Arlo Tejada, marketing director of Sheri Griffith Expeditions (www.griffithexp.com) in Moab, UT. “It’s exhilarating—and the sunsets are unbelievable.” If that’s not a recipe for romance, we don’t know what is. To find a whitewater rafting outfitter in your area, visit www.americaoutdoors.org. Fly inside four wallsFor a futuristic-sounding dose of fun, go weightless in a wind tunnel at an indoor skydiving facility. “It’s a sport, not a ride, since you’re actually floating, but there’s no loser,” says Rusty Lewis, manager of Skyventure Colorado (www.skyventurecolorado.com) near Denver. “It’s such a unique experience that you’re sure to bond when you share it with someone.” Over the course of about 90 minutes, you’ll be trained in flight poses and hand signals, get outfitted up, and then take a couple of minute-long sessions in the flight chamber. Compared to outdoor skydiving, floating in a wind tunnel requires just a fraction of the training and money for the exact same amount of free-fall time (and zero panic about that whole parachute-not-opening thing). Yet it’s so exciting, you’re liable to feel like you’re walking on air long after you’ve left the facility. Can you ever go back to dinner and a movie again?! To find an indoor skydiving facility in your area, do a search for “indoor skydiving” plus your state. Take the bull by the hornsEveryone loves a cowboy (or cowgirl), which is why rodeo lessons are a great outdoor undertaking for you and a pard’ner. “It’s just such a unique activity,” says Kim McGhee, owner of KB Horse Camp (www.kbhorsecamp.com) in Hahira, GA. She suggests a day of horsemanship lessons or barrel racing — weaving in and out of barrels on a horse — to polish your riding skills, or learning to jump bareback or goat-tie for more advanced equestrians. To find lessons in your area, do a search for “rodeo school” and/or “horseback riding lesson” plus your city or state.

Just Like Skin, Eyes Can 'Burn' in Strong Sun


Kids, teens more susceptible to sun-related vision damage without proper protection.

SUNDAY, May 25 (HealthDay News) -- Don't overlook your eyes when you're thinking about ultraviolet (UV) protection as the weather heats up, experts say.
Overexposure to the sun's UV rays has been linked to a number of eye problems, such as age-related cataracts, pterygium, photokeratitis and corneal degenerative changes, according to the American Optometric Association (AOA).
These conditions can cause blurred vision, irritation, redness, tearing, temporary vision loss and, in some cases, blindness.
"Just as skin is 'burned' by UV radiation, the eye can also suffer damage. The lesson -- especially for young people -- is that eyes need protection, too. Protection can be achieved by simple, safe and inexpensive methods such as wearing a brimmed hat and using eyewear that properly absorbs UV radiation," Gregory Good, a member of AOA's commission on ophthalmic standards, said in a prepared statement.
Children and teens are particularly susceptible to sun-related eye damage, because they typically spend more time outdoors than adults, and the lenses of their eyes are more transparent than those of adults, which means that more harmful light can reach the retina.
But it appears many people still don't fully understand the danger the UV rays pose to eyes.
A 2007 AOA survey found that 40 percent of Americans don't think UV protection is an important factor to consider when buying sunglasses. The survey also found that 61 percent of Americans buy sunglasses for their children, but 23 percent don't check if the lenses provide protection against UV rays.
The AOA offers the following advice about sunglasses:
Wear protective eyewear any time your eyes are exposed to UV radiation, even on cloudy days and during the winter.
Purchase quality sunglasses that offer good UV protection. They should block out 99 percent of UV-A and UV-B radiation and screen out 75 percent to 90 percent of visible light.
Make sure sunglass lenses are perfectly matched in color and free of distortions or imperfections.
Buy gray-colored lenses. They reduce light-intensity without altering the color of objects, providing the most natural color vision.
Make sure children and teens wear sunglasses. They typically spend more time in the sun than adults.

Is Kissing Dangerous ?


''You’d better be careful whom you kiss,” I was told. I was in high school and infectious mononucleosis (also called mono) was “going around.” Kids missed school for a month; and everyone was told it was because “too many people were kissing too many people.” As it turns out, there were only two or three kids who had mono, and they didn’t even know each other. The rest of it was hysteria, rumor or myth. But I always wondered about “kissing disease,” as many called it. Was it really dangerous? Was kissing really so risky?
Mono is caused by infection with Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV). After exposure to EBV, there are usually no symptoms at all – in fact, up to 95 percent of adults have antibody evidence of past EBV infection even though the vast majority recalled no related illness. For reasons that remain unknown, only some people develop mono after exposure to EBV, with fatigue, headache, muscle or joint aches, fever, enlarged lymph nodes, and sore throat. While it is true that the virus is shed in the saliva and can be transmitted by kissing, mono is not a highly contagious illness and it can also be transmitted by other means, such as coughing or sneezing. Preventing the spread of EBV is not easy since there are often no symptoms. Even when there are, one may be contagious before the illness is recognized.
Other infections can cause illness resembling mono, including cytomegalovirus (CMV) and other viral infections. Blood tests usually can establish the diagnosis of mono when necessary.
There is no effective therapy for mono, although acetaminophen or ibuprofen and fluids can be helpful in relieving symptoms. The vast majority of people who have it recover completely within a week or two. Occasionally fatigue lasts more than month, but even then, a return to normal is expected. Because the spleen may become enlarged and could rupture if injured, persons with mono are advised to avoid contact sports for at least a month after recovery.
Infections related to kissing
During any exchange of bodily fluids, there is a risk of transmitting infectious agents. However, the body has defense systems in place to prevent infection, though these work better for some infections than others. For example, HIV and hepatitis B are relatively easy to transmit through sexual intercourse, while hepatitis C is not as readily spread sexually.
Similarly, some infections are harder to transmit through kissing than others. HIV is rarely (if ever) transmitted through kissing; when it does occur it probably relates to open sores in the mouth that allow exposure to blood, not just saliva. On the other hand, many other viral infections are easy to transmit by kissing: herpes simplex virus, the cause of cold sores or fever blisters, is a common example. In fact, the illnesses commonly transmitted by kissing, including mono, have a minimal impact on overall health.
The bottom line
While it is true that EBV is easy to transmit from one person to another through kissing, there is usually no recognized illness associated with the infection. Even when mono does follow, complete recovery in a short period is the rule. While “kissing disease” is real, kissing is rarely a danger to your health.

Some Traditional Games of Indonesia....

Engklek.

Engklek, or the " one-leg jump", is the indonesian traditional game of hopscoth, which requires balanced movement of the players to execute systematic hops into or over squares drawn in the ground to retrieve a marker in one of the squares.



Mobil-mobilan Kulit Jeruk.

Toy cars and carts made from the thick skin of Jeruk Bali are a fine example of child creativity and innovation, using simple left-over material to create something entirely different and more useful.



Lompat Tali.

The traditional Indonesian jump rope game is a game of physical perseverance, which can be played individually or in group.
The rope is made from chain of rubber bands notched together one after another.



Egrang.

The traditional egrang is a pair of long bamboo sticks with footrests attached. it takes quite a learning process in a spirit of try and try again, before a child can possess the physical balance and body coordination needed to stand and walk around using the engrang.



Layang- layang.

To get a kite off the ground, make it soar higher and maneuver it in the air requires learning the proper technique and skills. But once learned, both children and adults can have hours of fun flying kites, whether just for enjoyment or for competition.



Kelerang.

Kelereng is the Indonesian game of marbles, a favorite of children in many countries all over the world. while there are different rules of play, a game of marbles requires a good strategy as well as skill to accurately shoot the marbles.

the love is a sacrifice.

love differs from darling, because darling only a feeling, without referance to to whom we feel and to whom we to give.


love and darling have no we to differentiate with words, but distinguishable with natural we behaviour and feeling.


because heartfelt loves make we can feel what which man who we love feeling.


love makes we volunteer sacrifices any for the shake of who we loved.


like mother love the child.


a volunteer mother does any for the shake of happiness of the child.


love doesn't egoist.


love is patient and doesnt claim.


love is not conditional.


love is not a word and statement of someone as a mutually agreeing.


the love will and can receive insuffiency and excess of man who we love.


the love equal to how we love ourselves.


because, if we cannot esteem and loves ourselves as it is hence we will never understand and cannot love others heartily.


if us are including man that its not understood to " Meaning of a Love", learning by loving the insuffiency in your own x'self and loves your family heartily, hence you will understand does that love.


because real love of we are our family.
