David Gill, who runs the multi -award winning South Lakes Wild Animal Park, at Dalton-in-Furness, has accused Barrow Borough Council of 'stifling' entrepreneurial spirit in the Furness area.
He believes his project would – * create 45 new jobs * bring elephants and 'big cats' such as jaguars to the park for the first time * improve housing for existing animals * add a children's farm * revamp visitor facilities, including a large car park and a new steam train to take visitors around the park Mr Gill is frustrated that the council has not ruled on his planning application after a year – although it is minded to reject it.
Now he has asked the Government's planning inspectorate to intervene and make a decision.
The borough council's planning committee believes the project would be an over-development of a greenfield site and cause traffic problems for residents of Melton Terrace, off the A590, where the new entrance would be located.
And it says that part of the reason it has taken so long to resolve the matter is because some of the application details were not clear enough.
Mr Gill, 50, who set up the park 17 years ago, said: "I have lived here all my life and these councillors are the most backward-looking people you could come across.
"How a positive project, which would create jobs and bring more people to the area in such desperate economic times as these, could be refused beggars belief."
He added: "At the moment we have four different car parks and up to 4,000 people a day trying to cross a busy 60mph road to get to the park. With our new plans we could have them all on one piece of land."
And he warned that the zoo, which is one of Cumbria's top five visitor attractions, would stagnate if it did not grow.
"In this day and age, if you don't go forwards you are going backwards."
The zoo is already home to a variety of animals, including giraffes, rhinos, lions and lemurs and runs two animal conservation charities which aim to protect vulnerable species such as Sumatran tigers.
Mr Gill's plan has been backed by Cumbria Tourism managing director Ian Stephens, who said: ''The park provides one of many good reasons for visiting the Furness peninsula and has brought important benefits into the area in terms of employment, and tourist expenditure.
"The expansion plans are to be encouraged and have a close fit with the tourism strategy for Cumbria. We're sure that most people will be in favour of bringing increased employment and income to the area and as such we hope that the planning issues can be overcome".
John Millar, chairman of Dalton with Newton Parish Council, which opposed the plans, said councillors were not against expansion or creating jobs but were worried about access.
"We are concerned about traffic flow and the impact this could have on the surrounding rural area," he said Coun Ann Thomson, chairman of Barrow's planning committee told the Gazette: "We are not in the business of stifling entrepreneurialism – we wouldn't dream of doing that."
She said members had particular concerns that the car park would 'stand out like a sore thumb' on the hillside and it was still unclear how it would be masked by landscaping.
Barrow and Furness MP John Woodcock said: "Safety should never be compromised, but I hope these concerns can be resolved to everyone's satisfaction.
"The wildlife park is one of this area's big-pull attractions with lots of potential to expand and create more jobs in the years ahead."
The final decision will be made by secretary of state for local government and communities Eric Pickles following advice from the planning inspectorate.
A ruling is likely to be made next spring.
MORE than 10,000 people flocked to Crooklands at the weekend to celebrate quality local produce.
Country Fest — organised by Westmorland Agricultural Society — showcased the finest food and drink the area has to offer.
Independent food and drink producers and suppliers, who give the region its culinary reputation, tempted the senses at the County Showfield and gave visitors an insight into where their food comes from.
The family event also included a pets' corner, 'meet the farmer', sheep shearing demonstrations, music and dance, a 'grow your own' area, crafts, beer festival, trade stands and dog shows.
Sheep dog trials were a new addition this year and The Westmorland Gazette hosted a wedding fair.
Richard and Barbara Mathews, from Kendal, were impressed with the range of items on sale and stocked up on locally-produced pies.
"We have such a wide variety of food here," said Mr Mathews.
"We have got a lot of farmers who are extending what they do into other products and we like to support them."
Tommy Brady, also from Lancaster, said: "The amount of food that is available is amazing. There are umpteen different types of sausage and pies — you want to buy it all."
Christine Knipe, chief executive of Westmorland Agricultural Society, said: "The sunshine did bring people out on the Sunday and it was very busy.
"The feedback was positive."
TWO thirds of the red kites released in Grizedale Forest last summer have survived the harsh winter.
Wildlife rangers believe that around 20 of the 30 birds released in the Forestry Commission's three-year re-introduction programme made it through the winter and are still in Cumbria, or nearby counties. Between five and eight of the birds are believed to be living around Grizedale and the Rusland Valley, with another three to five inhabiting the Kirkby Moor area near Ulverston.
Four more Grizedale red kites have been spotted by RSPB experts at feeding stations in Dumfries and Galloway – the furthest known movement is by the bird tagged as number four, which has flown 120km north west into Scotland.
"The birds are doing pretty much exactly as we expected, which is very encouraging," said Iain Yoxall, Forestry Commission wildlife ranger. "We are more confident that these birds will make it to adults now they have made it through a harsh winter. Sadly we lost a few birds but that is natural and why we have to release the numbers that we did."
The 30 red kites released from a secret location in Grizedale Forest in August last year had coloured tags on each wing. An orange tag on their left wing shows they are from Grizedale, and blue tags on their right wings indicate that they were released in 2010. Some birds were also fitted with radio transmitters to help with monitoring.
Mr Yoxall, who has been following the birds' movements around Cumbria, said the help he has received from the public had been invaluable. "I have been radio tracking the birds but sightings from members of the public have been a fantastic help and greatly appreciated. This has been very important because it helps us find the birds and backs up our radio tracking results to give us a more robust picture of their movements. We hope that the public will continue letting us know when and where they make sightings of the red kites."
This year's birds will hatch in May and are likely to be released into Grizedale Forest in August. The red kites being introduced into Grizedale are the product of a reintroduction programme that took place in Northamptonshire in the 1980s.
Red kites were almost eradicated from the UK following changes in farming practices and human persecution between the 16th and 19th centuries. But they managed to cling on in Wales, and their numbers recovered slowly thanks to the actions of local conservationists
A SNOW leopard which featured in a movie starring Daniel Craig and Nicole Kidman is the latest addition to a South Lakeland zoo.
Young male Pavan, one of two leopards who played the part of Stelamaria in The Golden Compass, will be housed in a walk-through enclosure at Lakeland Wildlife Oasis at Hale, near Milnthorpe.
Staff have created a homely feel for their new feline friend with the enclosure designed to look like a Himalayan village with plenty of rocks for him to climb and snooze on.
An acrylic tunnel running through the enclosure will allow visitors to see Pavan in his own habitat in what is thought to be the UK's first walk-through big cat exhibit.
Assistant manager of Lakeland Wildlife Oasis, Caroline Howard, said: "We're really excited about Pavan's arrival - he's a real celebrity cat! His new home is amazing. You can walk right through his territory while he ranges around you - even above your head!"
Pavan has arrived from UK charity the Cat Survival Trust which helps conserve endangered cats.
Once he has settled in his new environment, zoo staff hope to form a breeding pair by adding a female snow leopard to Pavan's enclosure.It is not known how many snow leopards are left in the wild but they are now classed as endangered by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature.
Lakeland Wildlife Oasis is joining the captive breeding programme which is run by the European Association of Zoos and Aquariums.

They were thicker than I expected. Very nice.,
My clients love the softness - I love the convenience !
Soft, durable and hold up after many washes. Also these fit over fleece face cradle cover without ripping or losing their elasticity or worse yet, creating a breathing barrier for the client while prone. I highly recommend these.
Generous sizing and very soft. Have had trouble finding covers to fit but these are nice. They seem larger & softer than the covers that come in the sheet set from NRG. I'm pleased with these covers

Wow, that's the best off-roader ever!
But one question, he said he used NXT 1.0, and he had Lego firmware. How did he connect to the other NXT automatically with 1.0? And further than that, how did he start a program automatically on the vehicle? Is it a special BT message?

in the linked-to page, he specified which firmware versions he is using (1.04 and 1.07), and states, in a list of bullet points, "Automatic Bluetooth communication setup. Using NXC System Calls in RC Module. See the NXC Source Code for more details on this."
- Jan 4, 2010, 1:35:00 PM
- Linus said...
I don't know why my first comment didn't come through, but anyway, here's my second try:
Aaron, the code lines for the "automatic bluetooth connection" from NXC are in this file here: http://bouwvoorbeelden.nl/MindStorms/NXT_4WD_OffRoader_bestanden/4WD_RCmodule10.nxc , from line 522 onwards. J. Hansen's enhanced Firmware is needed for this to work.
To start a program on another NXT (which has to be already connected via Bluetooth), you can use the NXC-Function RemoteStartProgram. This is supported by all firmware versions.

From my Forbes.com blog The New Persuaders:
With so much turmoil in the venture capital business, from the rise of competing super-angel investors to tepid fund returns for the past 10 years to some big IPO duds this year from the likes of Facebook, the future of this economic engine of innovation is pretty murky. But to hear VC investors on the opening panel of the Silicon Valley Venture Summit held annually in the coast-side community of Half Moon Bay by business media network AlwaysOn, there's not much to worry about.
On the panel addressing the "VC & Investor Outlook for Global Silicon Valley" were host Packy Kelly, partner and co-head of KPMG's U.S. Venture Capital Practice; Norm Fogelsong, general partner at later-stage VC Institutional Venture Partners; Neal Dempsey, managing general partner at early-stage VC Bay Partners, which has gone through its own travails in the past couple of years; and Gaurav Tewari, director of SAP Ventures. Here's what they had to say about the state of the VC business:
Q: Where are we in terms of the VC cycles today?
Fogelsong: The industry's healthy. Things got quite excessive in the bubble, and now we're back up to $15 billion to $20 billion that's healthy for the industry.
Dempsey: Companies are going to have major exits, and I'm convinced it's going to be fine over time.
Tewari: The pace of innovation and entrepreneurship is just accelerating. It's a very exciting time. The numbers are mixed. The number of folks in the industry has shrunk 30% in recent years.
Q: Is there still ample capital to invest?
Fogelsong: Yes. But we're still burning off the excess of the bubble.
Q: How have things changed in terms of the choices entrepreneurs have now–angels, seed funds, accelerators?
Dempsey: It's only better for the industry. The angels provide this huge infrastructure of small investments that we can't make. We can see what trends or companies are working. When we get involved, [unlike angels who make dozens of investments a year], we're hands-on.
Fogelsong: But if you're thinking of getting angel financing, get an experienced angel. Some of the new ones don't realize their investments are going to need follow-on financing. …

It will be visible from all around the world.
More info: http://ind.pn/10sFFVK
OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG.... my father spent his whole life telling me HOW exciting it was for me to be on the planet when Halley's Comet came around (his lifetime actually worked so that he would miss it and it was one of his greatest regrets). It was the biggest fizzer of all time and I was devestated.
By the end of summer it will become visible in small telescopes and binoculars. By October it will pass close to Mars and things will begin to stir. The surface will shift as the ice responds to the thermal shock, cracks will appear in the crust, tiny puffs of gas will rise from it as it is warmed. The comet's tail is forming.
Slowly at first but with increasing vigour, as it passes the orbit of Earth, the gas and dust geysers will gather force. The space around the comet becomes brilliant as the ice below the surface turns into gas and erupts, reflecting the light of the Sun. Now Ison is surrounded by a cloud of gas called the coma, hundreds of thousands of miles from side to side. The comet's rotation curves these jets into space as they trail into spirals behind it. As they move out the gas trails are stopped and blown backwards by the Solar Wind.
By late November it will be visible to the unaided eye just after dark in the same direction as the setting Sun. Its tail could stretch like a searchlight into the sky above the horizon. Then it will swing rapidly around the Sun, passing within two million miles of it, far closer than any planet ever does, to emerge visible in the evening sky heading northward towards the pole star. It could be an "unaided eye" object for months. When it is close in its approach to the Sun it could become intensely brilliant but at that stage it would be difficult and dangerous to see without special instrumentation as it would be only a degree from the sun.
Remarkably Ison might not be the only spectacular comet visible next year. Another comet, called 2014 L4 (PanSTARRS), was discovered last year and in March and April it could also be a magnificent object in the evening sky. 2013 could be the year of the great comets.

Rhys Stools Set of 2
As a movement, Modernism believes in the inherent beauty of the unadorned form – a design philosophy utilized here. Two solid sides meet the work surface they support at an elegant yet simple mitered corner, offering a generous, distraction-free setting for learning, exploration, tinkering and play.
- Handcrafted of kiln-dried hardwood with fine veneers
- Finished by hand in sandwashed grey using an intense multistep finishing process that achieves the authentic texture of time with gently worn edges
- Nylon glides on corners
- This item is handcrafted with meticulous care. Given its hand-finished nature and natural variations in the wood grain, each item is unique and no two will be exactly alike.
- Set of play table and 2 stools sold separately

I actually liked COM and LF (sorry for lumping the two together here) but I did feel that they were originally intended as stand alone books (in the same way as the Bromeliad became) and not as an extended series set in the same world. To be honest, I don't believe Sir Terry expected them to be so well received and only after seeing their popularity did he think to write his next book (Equal Rites) and set it on Discworld. I'm guessing from the way these first two were written, he had not planned to go on and develop the Discworld to such a large extent but I'm certainly glad that he spotted the potential and did. Mind you, from early interviews, I always got the impression that he was somewhat surprised by its popularity.
As for the Colour of Magic itself, any book that can poke fun at one of my favorite authors (Fritz Leiber) without causing me offence is alright in my view. Ankh-Morpork is a direct lampoon of Lankhmar and the first characters we meet are Bravd the Hublander and The Weasel (Fafherd and the Grey Mouser) and their opening dialogue is almost word for word for a passage in one of the Lankhmar books (even the Crimson Leech mentioned is a 'rip off' of the Golden Lamprey). The 'short story' style of Colour of Magic is also the same way in which Leiber wrote his series. There are also similarities between Sir Terry's version of Death's personality in this book and Leiber's Death character. Fritz Leiber was also heavily influenced by H. P. Lovecraft in his works, someone Sir Terry also lampoons extensively. Therefore, I do rather object when Sir Terry (or others) say the book takes the micky out of "bad fantasy writers" since I do not consider Moorcock, Leiber, Lovecraft, Robert E. Howard amongst this number.
In short, I think Sir Terry merely set out to write a lampoon of popular fantasy at that time (consisting of two or three books at most) and originally had no intention of developing the Discworld into such an extensive or well developed series.

Both the long ton and the short ton are composed of twenty hundredweights, each having different values for the hundredweight (112 and 100 pounds respectively). Prior to the 15th century in England, the ton was composed of 20 hundredweights, each of 108 lb, giving a ton of 2,160 pounds.
Assay ton (abbreviation 'AT') is not a unit of measurement (nobody ever has x assay tons of something), but rather a standard quantity used in assaying ores of precious metals; it is grams (short assay ton) or grams (long assay ton), the amount which bears the same ratio to a milligram as a short or long ton bears to a troy ounce. In other words, the number of milligrams of a particular metal found in a sample of this size gives the number of troy ounces contained in a short or long ton of ore.
In documents that predate 1960 the word ton is sometimes spelled tonne; however, in more recent documents the spelling tonne refers exclusively to the metric ton.
In the context of nuclear power plants, tHM and MTHM mean (metric) tonnes of heavy metals, and MTU means metric tonnes of uranium. In the steel industry, the acronym THM has the meaning 'tons/tonnes hot metal', which refers to the amount of liquid iron or steel that is produced (particularly in the context of blast furnace production or specific consumption).
A dry ton or dry tonne has the same mass value, but the material (sludge, slurries, compost, and similar mixtures in which solid material is soaked with or suspended in water) has been dried to a relatively low, consistent moisture level (dry weight). If the material is in its natural, wet state, it is called a wet ton or wet tonne.
The displacement ton is a unit of volume used for describing the displacement of (usually) a warship. It represents the volume of water displaced by the ship. One measurement ton is equal to 35 cubic feet or 0.99108963072+ cubic metres. Coincidentally, 35 cubic feet of water weighs very close to 1 tonne, but the tonne had not been defined when the displacement ton was. Consequently it is less approximately equal to 1 long ton of water (2240 lbs). It is usually abbreviated as DT.
The freight ton represents the volume of a truck, train or other freight carrier. In the past it has been used for a cargo ship but the register ton is now preferred. It is today equal to 40 cubic feet of space (1.132 cubic metres), but historically it has had several informal definitions. It is correctly abbreviated as 'FT' but some users are now using freight ton to represent a weight of 1 tonne, thus the more common abbreviations are now M/T, MT, or MTON (for measurement ton), which still cause it to be confused with the metric ton or even the megaton.
The register ton is also a unit of volume used for the cargo capacity of a ship, defined as 100 cubic feet (roughly 2.83 cubic metres). It is often abbreviated RT or GRT for gross registered ton (The former providing confusion with the refrigeration ton). It is known as a tonneau de mer in Belgium, but, in France, a tonneau de mer is 1.44 cubic metres or about 1.88 cubic yards.
The Panama Canal/Universal Measurement System (PC/UMS) is based on net tonnage, modified for Panama Canal billing purposes. PC/UMS is based on a mathematical formula to calculate a vessel's total volume; a PC/UMS net ton is equivalent to 100 cubic feet of capacity.
The water ton was formerly used in Great Britain and equal to 224 imperial gallons (the volume occupied by a mass of one long ton under the conditions which define the imperial gallon).
See 1 E-1 m³ and orders of magnitude (volume) for a comparison with other volumes.
(Note that volume tons are units of convenience used in shipping and are not useful in science except that they are exactly defined.)
Note that these are small calories (cal). The dietary Calorie (Cal) is distinct and equal to one kilocalorie.
Early values for the explosive energy released by trinitrotoluene (TNT) ranged from 900 to 1100 calories per gram. In order to standardise the use of the term TNT as a unit of energy, an arbitrary value was assigned based on 1000 calories (1 kcal, 4.184 kilojoules) per gram. Thus there is no longer a direct connection to the chemical TNT itself. It is now merely a unit of energy that happens to be expressed using words normally associated with mass (e.g. kilogram, tonne, pound). The definition applies for both spellings: ton of TNT and tonne of TNT.
Measurements in tons of TNT have been used primarily to express nuclear weapon yields, though they have also been used since in seismology as well.
The unit ton is used in refrigeration and air conditioning to measure heat absorption. Prior to the introduction of mechanical refrigeration, cooling was accomplished by delivering ice. Installing one ton of refrigeration replaced the daily delivery of one ton of ice.
The refrigeration ton is abbreviated as RT providing scope for confusion with the register ton.
A ton is also equivalent to 100 runs in the game of cricket (more commonly known as a century).

I apologize if this is redundant, though I didn't see anything helpful while searching "router device priority" and similar, except for the recent "which router should I buy". Ours is a reverse-QoS issue, if there is such a thing.
We're a family of six, plus the occasional friend/extended family. More than our share of tablets, smartphones, Windows laptops and video game systems.
Our problem is that when one of the kids starts up Netflix (or even youtube) on their Kindle Fire or whatever, it slows everyone else down.
Our network: AT&T DSL using the comes-with-it HG-2701 2Wire Gateway; 6016 kbps incoming speed, 768 kbps outgoing. Speed is fine - videos don't lag if it's just one (or even two) of us streaming. But attempting anything else, even to check e-mail, is a slow wait-and-see problem. Not really a QoS issue, but a priority-by-device issue.
I'm not too tech-knowledgeable, but yes, I know that a wireless-G device will slow down wireless-N devices on the same network.
Would a Linksys EA3500 Router (with "Smart WiFi") or similar router help resolve the problem? Their Smart WiFi description says settings allow priority by device (in addition to QoS).
IE, is my internet speed fast enough to handle two or three streaming videos plus a couple of Wiki searches and e-mail checking? What router would be the best for this? Would any dual-band router work to resolve the problem (ie, Kindle Fires on 2.4 band, with laptops and PS3 on 5 band), or only one that does have a setting-by-device feature?
Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

What are 5 things you have learned that has completely changed your life?
I am still a kid, And I love asking questions, cause I believe that the best way to learn is through asking questions. And I love the TED community, its full of amazing individuals. So, What are 5 things you have learned that has completely changed your life?
Ahmad Akhtaby
Jun 9 2012: Every Day I learn More
- +12
1- We spend 1/3 of life working, Choose Wisely & Do something that counts.
2- To Master ANYTHING, Number of tries is the key. Always learn new skills, discover new places & Read much.
3- Take Risks, if you win, you'll lead, if you loose, you'll guide.
4- Your Family is the best gift in life, Love them and be grateful.
5- If you don't build your dream, Someone will hire you to build their dream.Success is all about hard-work, passion and will.
Only live your day and enjoy the beauty of the CREATOR
Jun 9 2012: I couldn't have said it better.
Jun 10 2012: Thank you Sonum
Jun 11 2012: And Thank you.Jun 14 2012: Salam A. Ahmad.
I liked the 5th one. thanks for sharing.
Jun 15 2012: Am smiling at that too !
Jun 16 2012: Thanks Mwenjew
I hope we all r laughing to lifeJun 16 2012: Salaam Rafi
Thanks you for ur opinionJun 15 2012: Again i found some great word..
Jun 16 2012: Thanks Harsh :)
Sebastian R.
Jun 27 2012: 1) Knowledge is fine, but useless without creativity. You need creativity to solve a problem and not only for arts. Creativity is something you have, but after years in school you loose it.
- +8
2) Our supply chain sucks. The way out products are made is very complex. It is difficult to see where the process starts, but usually it involves some kind of slavery (cotton, metals, diamonds, rare earth elements for smartphones.., production of devices (Playstation, iPod...in Foxconn ), which leads to number 3)
3) When you buy something you also approve it. By getting an iPod, shoes or diamonds you say "I think it is a good thing that you do it and how you do it, make more of them".
4) Good grades and status on paper are no primary goals. The primary goal is to make this earth a better place. However good grades and status make this a lot easier. For example if you develop some tech or solve a problem you get a PhD. This is nice but it is only half the way. You also have to make sure, that it is used to the benefit to those who need it. For example to clean up our supply chain (it is ok to use tech as a slave)
5) Talent is overrated. Good people are good at what they do because of practice (10 000 hours). That it does not feel like pain or work to them one could call talent.
Debra Smith
Jun 27 2012: Wow Sebastian, this is what I read TED answers for. You allowed me to live for a moment through your eyes. Thank you.Jun 8 2012: 1- your body, mind and soul all need to be feed equally
- +1
2- love everything, but don't get your happiness attached to any of it
3- you are born the moment you realize your passion and start working for it
4- be good to all, at all times, and all phases
5- we are in this world to make it better, not to sit back and watch. it's short, so make the best out of it!
enjoy life ;)

Ben Goldberg
Jun 8 2012: 1. Charles Darwin - We are animals. We are related to all life on earth. Geological time is vast beyond one's wildest imagination. The ways in which life evolve over this great expanse of time is humbling, beautiful, and extraordinary.
- +7
Naturalism - There is beauty in truth!
2. Richard Dawkins - You, being alive right now, are the recipient of ~3.8 billion years of unbroken and successful genetic inheritance. This is a gift, but also a responsibility.
3. Renés Decartes and Bertrand Russell - Question everything! Skepticism isn't cynicism, it's intelligent and critical thought. Don't accept popular opinion as truth.
4. Edward O. Wilson - Sociobiology. We behave as we do due to evolutionary traits that conveyed advantage (adaptations), language, hands, large brains, and controlled use of fire among them, and in doing so have so vastly separated ourselves from all the other codependent living organisms on earth. Having advanced, technologically speaking, so rapidly, we have outpaced the corrective forces of evolution and unintentionally set a course of global instability that threatens all life on earth, including ourselves. Life will go on, in the sense that rats, cockroaches, vultures, crows, microorganisms, and fungi are life, but the oceans will forever be stained with plastics bags and bottles, the soil, water, and atmospheric chemistry/composition so dramatically altered that life as we know it will fail to keep pace. Our daily choices matter in how we choose to bequeath the earth to future generations of all macro fauna, so choose wisely friends.
5. Henry David Thoreau - a simple life isn't necessarily a less fulfilling life.
Oh, and my history professor in high school, Craig Schmidt, who taught me to be critical of sources of information: history is usually written by the victors of conflict. Also, Al Gore, who revealed an obvious fact: when my father was born there were 2 billion, and now 7 billion people on earth, this is not business as usual.

I tragically forgot Carl Sagan! -
"Human history can be viewed as a slowly dawning awareness that we are members of a larger group. Initially our loyalties were to ourselves and our immediate family, next, to bands of wandering hunter-gatherers, then to tribes, small settlements, city-states, nations. We have broadened the circle of those we love. We have now organized what are modestly described as super-powers, which include groups of people from divergent ethnic and cultural backgrounds working in some sense together — surely a humanizing and character building experience. If we are to survive, our loyalties must be broadened further, to include the whole human community, the entire planet Earth. Many of those who run the nations will find this idea unpleasant. They will fear the loss of power. We will hear much about treason and disloyalty. Rich nation-states will have to share their wealth with poor ones."
"A tiny blue dot set in a sunbeam. Here it is. That's where we live. That's home. We humans are one species and this is our world. It is our responsibility to cherish it. Of all the worlds in our solar system, the only one so far as we know, graced by life."
"Consider again that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar", every "supreme leader", every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there - on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam."Jun 8 2012: 1. Learning and change is a life long process.
2. Do a variety of things and find the right balance. Anything in excess in harmful
3. Be compassionate and generous, especially with praise and genuine love and respect
4. Never be afraid of failure. Sometimes a major failure is the best thing that can happen to you
5. Learn to let go. Some people will always be unfair to you. Learn to get them out of your life
Jun 8 2012: Great answer..
Shankar P
Jun 8 2012: 1.Passion is the fuel to extraordinary results.

2.Faith in god & self.
3.Genuine intention & efforts pays sooner or later.
4.Don't loose hope in tough times, every tunnel has an end!

Roy Bourque
Jun 7 2012: 1. Faith can move mountains, but only if you exercise it. Faith through wishful thinking accomplishes nothing other than to make you wonder why nothing is happening.
- +7
2. Books are an important learning tool. Make sure you review the interior before you buy it.
3. Science is the most productive learning tool we have in today's world. It is not always right, but it is always ready to accept a better answer.
4. If you want to know who's telling the truth, ask a question in which you already know the answer.
5.We only play the cards we are dealt, but we are not the dealer. Learn to play the right cards.
Aaron Pierce
Jun 7 2012: 1. Forgive yourself.
- +7
2. Cultures vary, but underneath people are pretty much the same.
3. Different languages express ideas that don't translate well. Learning new languages gives you more tools for understanding the world around you, and the ability to make connections with people who will help you do the same.
4. You grow the most when you step outside your comfort zone.
5. You will eventually grow comfortable no matter where you go and what you do. Don't mistake comfort for happiness. Refer to #4 often.
Jun 8 2012: number four is really, really true. comfort is like eating the same food over and over again until it doesn't even seem nourishing anymore!
Brian Cox
Jun 7 2012: 1. Pursue your passions recklessly - you'll regret nothing.

Jun 7 2012: Spot-on.Jun 24 2012: MARI TAKESHITA and Debra Smith wanted me to share 5 things that I have learned that completely changed my life. Before I start, I want to thank each and everyone of you for being so kind, amazing human beings. Thank you for taking your time, reflecting, and answering my questions. I am only 16, I do know a lot, but I still haven't experienced a lot. I am still on that journey of figuring out who I am and what I want to do with my life.
1- Love yourself. This is my life motto. I fight everyday to engrave this into my own mind and soul and into others. I believe that it is the most important of all. Love yourself first and everything else falls into line.
2- Don't compare yourself to others. I am firm believer in being yourself and comparing yourself to anyone because all it does, is drive you crazy. Strive for your own happiness, do whatever you can to make your life better. We all blessed in different ways. That realization set me free.
3- Our prime purpose is to help others. Don't live selfishly, this life isn't all about you. Help others the way you can. You don't have to be the richest man on earth to lend a helping hand. Just a simple gesture as a compliment to someone goes a long way.
4- Don't give up on your dreams. Always dream big. It doesn't matter who you are, where you come from or how much money you have in your pockets, if you have a dream, you love and believe in yourself, and you fight every single day to make that dream come true. Then I truly believe that any dream you have can become your reality. DON'T EVER SETTLE FOR ANYTHING LESS THAN YOU DESERVE.
5-Be grateful for what you have. No matter what our situation is we can always find something to be grateful for. This may sound silly, but sometimes, when I'm feeling blue or lonely. I touch my legs, my arms, then I feel my heart beat, and I thank God for those things.
Thank you. I am still learning.

Jun 25 2012: Fonkou, you sound like a genuinely remarkable young man! I think you have the good stuff figured out much, much earlier in your life than many of us likely did : ) Lots and lots of good wishes to you.

Jun 25 2012: Thank you so much Sue! You have no idea how much that made my day!Jun 25 2012: Fonkou, when I was at your age, I discovered that the number of birthdays which one has doesn't guarantee wisdom. You'll be surprised you're wiser than a lot of 60-yr olds out there. Keep dreaming whilst doing. You'll go far!
Debra Smith
Jun 25 2012: YES! Itaught my kids that just because someone lives in a big body does not mean that they are grown up inside.Jun 22 2012: 1. God doesn't have to be the God I grew up with.
- +3
2. It's possible to be grateful for even my darkest moments.
3. Science is not a collection of facts but a way of thinking.
4. The majority of the world is not, in fact, laughing at me.
5. Mathematics is truly the language of the universe.
Jun 22 2012: Very good list, especially #1, i agree people should feel ok about venturing out and finding what works for them.
Thanks for sharingJun 22 2012: :) I like no.4!!
Dan Geurin
Jun 21 2012: 1. Be gentle with people's feelings. You never know how you will impact the lives of others.
- +6
2. Love is more important than money. Most people learn this after work has destroyed important relationships.
3. People who have touched your life stay with you forever. This is so true.
4. Take care of your body. Eat well, move often, and get enough sleep. Your good health will be an asset during your life
5.Music and art are the glue that helps bond us as people across cultural and language barriers. Without it, life wouldn't have nearly as much meaningJun 14 2012: 1. We are not made just to make money.
2. The world is not a perfect place.
3. There is a 'Truth' that is not just determined by what humans think or say; or by popular opinion.
4. Money cant buy love, trust and intergrity.
5. Feelings should not be the sole-driver of all one's decisions.Jun 9 2012: 1. Self-acceptance has led to much wider acceptance of others
2. Happiness is nowhere near as related to money as I once thought
3. If someone is down, help them up
4. If I make it obvious that I trust someone, they will become trustworthy
5. There is no such thing as certainty
Kylie Dunn
Jun 9 2012: Not sure that this is the definitive list but these are certainly the most important things that I have learned in the last year or so, especially during my Year of TED (www.kyliedunn.com).
- +6
1. Nobody has the answers, we are all stumbling along doing the best we can.
2. Do not be afraid to put yourself out there to make friends and really connect with friends - chances are that they are just as worried as you are about making a fool of themselves.
3. I am not required to be perfect, nobody expects it from me and showing imperfection actually makes me more connected to people in my life.
4. Find people in your life who are willing and able to support you and tell you how wonderful you are. Love those people and make sure that you keep them close, they will change your life and give you strength when you think that you have no more.
5. Everyone is broken in their own way and sometimes they will hurt you because of their brokenness. You cannot control their actions and you are unlikely to be responsible for them, so son't take on their crap and let them ruin your life. You probably have enough of your own brokenness to deal with.

5. life is goodJun 7 2012: * Be BOLD in your failures, they are your best steps toward success.
* Don't let other people's fears dictate what you do. You must believe in yourself before anyone else will believe in you.
* Study systems-based thinking, interrelationships are more important than causality
* Learn to appreciate art, even if you can't create it - and to appreciate science, even if you don't pursue it
* Enjoy the time you have with friends and loved ones. Listen to their stories. Ask them questions. It's humbling to hear the trials and triumphs others have experienced - share in their joy, absorb their lessons. Learning from others' experiences will enhance your thinking.

Keep asking questions, Fonkou!!
Jun 26 2012: I like this list and would love to read how they in fact did change your life. Could you share a couple???Jun 26 2012: Love your question!
1. Present is the most important time but past determines you in some way but it's you who can manage your life by giving the past a meaning that could let you use your present to savoir-être and considering your future as an immediate result of your present. So, what matters it's the meaning you give to your past, your present, your future and the things, people and situations you value.
2. Anxiety is not as bad as it seems to be. Anxiety shows when you feel that something you value is in danger to be lost. And anxiety can give you the strenght you need to defend what's important to you and it's also a master who shows you what you value the most.
3. Smiling can make you feel better. So smile!
4. Reading is one of the most delicious things to do and it's also one of the cheapest, everybody should give it a try.
5. Death is part of our lives and our nature.Jun 9 2012: That there is something intangible and indescribable that happens when you become a parent that stops people being selfish to some extent.
That to serve others is an awesome way to live.
That failure can be the path to greater success.
That I can really only change me and invite others to do the same.
That a happy life is about relationships, how I treat others, not money, success or things I've done for others.Jun 9 2012: 1: Sometimes life is hard, sometimes it's easy. Remember that the easy path is not always the right one.
2: Courage is not the absence of fear, it's being afraid but doing what you know is right anyways.
3: Nothing last's forever not even time and space. So don't dwell on things past, and remember that the future is yet unwritten.
4: Always strive to be the most clever person, and if you aren't clever wear glasses while examining things and speak as if you know what you are talking about. Trust me it always works.
5: You are a living thing, not only living but a human. Humans are evil, greedy, envious, selfish, and ignorant. We are also good, courageous, brave, caring, loving, and knowledgeable. The great thing about being human is that we always have a choice. We can only hope that you make the right one.
Avery Lane
Jun 8 2012: 1. Being happy is like having good posture. You have to consciously make an effort to maintain it.
- +5
2. If you feel uninteresting, become interestED. It is your passions, pursuits, and knowledge that enrich you as a person, and before you know it, you'll be admired for that.
3. If you often feel a lack of contentment, at least be comforted by the fact that it probably means you are ambitious and not satisfied with settling for less.
4. If one views the history of life on Earth on a month-long timescale, humans appear in approximately the last five minutes. The human species is definitely interesting and unique and exciting to think about, but it is well to remember how brief of a role we have played thus far.
5. Sometimes you must go do something significant and out of your comfort zone BY YOURSELF to get out of a lack of confidence rut. Backpack through a foreign country alone, move to a big city, end that stifling relationship, or whatever seems scariest to you. The benefits will manifest themselves in your career, your relationships, your ability to embrace opportunities, and your overall happiness.Jun 8 2012: Hi
I have spent 10 years battling various illnesses (with help and other people's spare body parts!) and I think that's one of the most valuable things that has ever happened to me. I wish people could learn from my experiences but it seems that you only learn the true life exoperiences by nearly losing yours or being very close to someone who does.
My lessons are:
1. be happy, do stuff that makes you happy but also know that you control your state of mind - laugh often
2. be grateful, even when you don't; there is someone who loves you
3. give, you will always get more back
4. love, and allow yourself to be vunerable in doing so, you will be protected but those who deserve your love
5. look after your body; use it, try not to take it for granted and forgive it for it's minor problems, it does an amazing job
but the things that changed my life were:
1. Getting diagnosed - discovering my true inner strength
2. waking up after my kidney transplant - surrounded by family and friends and feeling immediately better than i did before i went into surgery
3. buying my first horse - unconditional love and passion combined
4. getting together with my best friend - i didn't know love could feel this good
5. going to do Camp America - I didn't know that I was any good with kids or other people, I thought I was just a maths head but in truth you can reinvent yourself at any time! Like yourself!
Sorry for the waffle!

Jun 8 2012: 1. love yourself, you must before you love someone else

2. don't fight pain, its makes the positive so much sweeter
3. think positive
4. smile
5. never give up on your dreams
Rachel Massy
Jun 8 2012: 1. People can change.
- +5
2. Failures can lead to successes.
3. Depression can be overcome & doesn't have to end you.
4. You can never truly understand another's perspective until you have experienced what they have.
5. Understanding oneself is an endless process.
Jun 8 2012: I got some great answer.. Thank u..Jun 8 2012: 1. First love and respect yourself, others will follow and you will be source of joy for people around you
2. Live each day balancing the three make up of your being body, mind and soul. Take care of your body, nurture your mind and give a rest to your soul when you feel it is due.
3. Expand and increase what has been given to you (although this seems simple, I think it is one of the principles of the universe), don't settle.
4. Don't wait for perfect moment and right time, you have to try to know when is perfect and to feel when is right
5. Pick up your self hundred times, enjoy the process, and move onJun 7 2012: 1. Express your ideas widely. Do not be afraid to tell everyone. No one will steal your idea. The people who work on ideas have their own and won't notice yours. But people who can help you will take notice!
2. The universe is releasing ideas into this material world.. not just to you. Move quickly or watch someone else implement the idea.
3. If you see your idea implemented by someone else, give yourself one gold star. Tell yourself, "I thought of that!" and be proud not jealous.
4. Love yourself first. Give yourself a hug. Then you can spead the love!!
5. If you implement your idea, remember it is not YOUR idea! it is the universe expressing itself through you and the others who have joined you to implement it. Give everyone gold stars!! And thank the universe!
Jun 8 2012: I will try from now to follow these things, really awsome .Jun 7 2012: 1. challenging what I believed to be my core 'identity'- turns out I'm not who I thought I was!
2. it is OK to feel vulnerable and to express that to others without feeling shame
3. that listening to others is more powerful than trying to solve the world's problems
4. fake it til you make it
5. always choosing in favour of my passions and if i don't know what they are i write down the times when i am smiling the mostJun 26 2012: 1. You never notice what you got until it's gone
2. What goes around comes around
3. Optimism will get you far
4. Treat others the way you want to be treated
5. Lower expectations
Jun 27 2012: Hi, like 1-4, but disagree with 5. If you have low expectations you cannot be disappointed. But in some cases high expectations can lead to amazing results for example when working with a team on a project.
Jun 27 2012: Sebastian, I can't answer for Zidni, and again, remember that each list is a personal one and supposed has changed that person's life, but I think what was meant is not to have "low expectations", but "lower ones" which is a difference. Perhaps those that were had were too high at the time and may have been unattainable due to circumstances beyond the person's control, but since they were lowered a bit, they were met and success followed. Does that make sense???Jun 25 2012: 1) Not to care so much, everything will pass in time.
2) Tell people you love them every time you see them, you never know when you might not see them again.
3) LISTEN when people are talking to you, put down your media devices!
4) Wake up every morning and choose to have a good day.
5) You can't change anyone, only yourself.Jun 19 2012: 1. I can do anything if I really apply myself to it.
2. There are only 24 hours a day, and only that many days in a life. Which means potential is nice, but it's worth nothing without focus.
3. Watch your mind. The ability to quiet your thoughts is the most important one you can acquire.
4. Listen to your gut feeling, especially when it's very faint.
5. The things i fear most or am procrastinating are the ones I most need to do. Fear (except when talking about real danger of course) is often a sign you need to push yourself to do.
