~ Innocent Eyes ~  

Do you remember when you were seven? 
And the only thing that you wanted to do 
Was show your mum that you could play the piano 
Ten years have passed 
And the one thing that lasts 
Is that same old song that we played along and made my mumma cry 

I miss those days and I miss those ways 
When I got lost in fantasies 
In a cartoon land of mysteries 
In a place you won’t grow old in a place you won’t feel cold and I’ll sing 

Da da da da da da da da da da da da 
Seems I’m lost in my reflection

 
Da da da da da da da da da da da da 
Find a star for my direction 

 
Da da da da da da da da da da da da 
For the little girl inside who won’t just hide 
Don’t let me see mistakes and lies 
Let me keep my faith and innocent eyes 


My innocent eyes 

Do you remember when you were fifteen? 
And the kids at school called you a fool ‘cause you took the chance to dream 

In the time that has past, and the one thing that lasts 
Is that same old song that we played along and made my daddy cry 

I miss those days and I miss those ways 
When I got lost in fantasies 
In a cartoon land of mysteries 
In a place you won’t grow old in a place you won’t feel cold and I’ll sing 

Da da da da da da da da da da da da 
Seems I’m lost in my reflection 

Da da da da da da da da da da da da 
Find a star for my direction 


Da da da da da da da da da da da da 
For the little girl inside who won’t just hide 
Don’t let me see mistakes and lies 
Let me keep my faith and innocent eyes 

My innocent eyes 

Under my feeling, under my skin 
Under the thoughts from within 
Learning the subtext of the mind 
See creation how we’re defined 


Da da da da da da da da da da da da 
Seems I’m lost in my reflection

 
Da da da da da da da da da da da da 
Find a star for my direction 


Da da da da da da da da da da da da 
For the little girl inside, who won’t just hide 
Don’t let me see mistakes and lies 
Let me keep my faith and innocent eyes 

My innocent eyes

Van Allen Radiation Belts

Van Allen Probes Find Storage Ring in Earth’s Outer Radiation Belt

Since their discovery over 50 years ago, the Earth’s Van Allen radiation belts have been considered to consist of two distinct zones of trapped, highly energetic charged particles. Observations from NASA’s Van Allen Probes reveal an isolated third ring in the outer radiation belt.

NASA’s Van Allen Probes Discover a Surprise Circling Earth

28.02.13

After most NASA science spacecraft launches, researchers wait patiently for months as instruments on board are turned on one at a time, slowly ramped up to full power, and tested to make sure they work at full capacity. It’s a rite of passage for any new satellite in space, and such a schedule was in place for the Van Allen Probes when they launched on Aug. 30, 2012, to study two giant belts of radiation that surround Earth.

But a group of scientists on the mission made a case for changing the plan. They asked that the Relativistic Electron Proton Telescope (REPT) be turned on early – just three days after launch — in order that its observations would overlap with another mission called SAMPEX (Solar, Anomalous, and Magnetospheric Particle Explorer), that was soon going to de-orbit and re-enter Earth’s atmosphere.

It was a lucky decision. Shortly before REPT turned on, solar activity on the sun had sent energy toward Earth that caused the radiation belts to swell. Continue Reading at the link, includes videos and more»

The Solar System

Explore the Cosmos from Your Computer (more at the link) Excerpt >

Our solar system consists of the sun, eight planets, moons, many dwarf planets or plutoids: the discovery of Eris in 2005, and similar in size to Pluto caused scientists to reconsider the definition of a planet, an asteroid belt, comets, meteors, and others. The sun is the center of our solar system; the planets, their moons, a belt of asteroids, comets, and other rocks and gas orbit the sun.

The planet count in our solar system has gone as high as 15 before new discoveries prompted a fine tuning of the definition of a planet. The most recent change was in 2006 when scientists reclassified Pluto as a new kind of object – a dwarf planet. (NASA)

The eight planets that orbit the sun are (in order from the sun): Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune. Another large body is Pluto, now classified as a dwarf planet or plutoid. A belt of asteroids (minor planets made of rock and metal) lies between Mars and Jupiter. These objects all orbit the sun in roughly circular orbits that lie in the same plane, the ecliptic (Pluto is an exception; it has an elliptical orbit tilted over 17° from the ecliptic).

Easy ways to remember the order of the planets (plus Pluto) are mnemonics: “My Very Easy Method Just Simplifies Us Naming Planets” The first letter of each of these words represents a planet – in the correct order.

planet order

The largest planet is Jupiter. It is followed by Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Earth, Venus, Mars, Mercury, and finally, tiny Pluto (the largest of the dwarf planets). Jupiter is so big that all the other planets could fit inside it.  Continue reading at the website for an Informative and Interactive way to Explore the Solar System, with more than ‘Just the Facts’.  Includes many links to useful websites, Including one for the current position of the Planets.

Gerard Way ~ Truth, Mystery and Myth

I seriously thought that a posting like this was just around the corner for me, as My Chemical Romance and Gerard Way, himself are yet again re~creating themselves.  It becomes an interesting topic in itself.  No mystery for my readers, I’m sure, with the amount of articles on this topic that have already surfaced here at my ‘Apanache’ Wordpress!

God, it’s an incredibly enchanting thing when Anna Calvi strings us along. It’s breathtaking the way that she hushes us and the way that she makes us work for it, kill for it. She so very quickly and quietly takes us all under her spell and makes us see and hear only her. We’re locked into her every word, every expertly-placed pluck, strum or squall, as well as being visibly locked on those resoundingly red lips of hers. We’re smitten and we’re intimidated. We’re unsure if she’ll let us out of this show or this record with all of our senses and limbs attached. We pat our pockets - all of them - when she’s broken us from the bewitching, to see what might be missing. We know that she’s taking something from us when she’s singing to us, or singing at us. We can feel it. We just don’t know exactly what it might be and we’re left that way, kinda adrift and searching when she’s through. She mesmerizes and stymies us like no one else that we can think of. The way that she portrays her innermost thoughts and yearnings is very intimate. It’s as if we’re voyeurs and we’re watching her slowly take her stockings off, as she’s singing out-loud, supposedly to herself, calming herself, trying to talk herself down from whatever things she was dealing with all throughout the day and the night that’s just now coming to an end.

She gives us chills with the way that she builds these understated, almost silent cuts into her songs - especially “Love Won’t Be Leaving,” from her 2011 self-titled, debut full-length - leaving us to wonder and hear our own heart beat right down there, under our chin. She sings, “My desire is so strong/My desire is so strong…/Sometimes I see faces/When I’m so alone,” and then she leaves us out in the dark and in the cold for what feels to us like quite some time. There are some spare drums being thumped upon and there’s a shaker that’s just doing a little scratching over there in the corner. It keeps us fully alert and absolutely unsure about the outcome. Then she sends the panic in. Everything is a race against time from then on and the sweat in breaking out all over our body. We can’t catch our breath. We don’t feel the need to catch our breath. What’s the use anyway?

Calvi sings like some kind of kissing candlelight and we’re not really even sure what that means, but it’s what THIS feels like. She overpowers us with her heat and her delicious subtlety. It’s as if we’re driving recklessly on the iciest of roads and she’s watching us, forcing us to slow down and to be more careful. You can see, or hear, her profile in the light, flickering flame of that candle. We feel safe in her light.

Auspicious & Prosperous Year of the Water Snake 2013 ~ Advancing you to better prosperity, position, longevity, wealth & harmony in the coming new year.

Chinese Snake Symbol

The qualities or attributes of Water according to the Ancient Chinese are diplomacy and the ability to influence others in a non-confrontational way. Chinese horoscope signs who have water as their element definitely have amazing skills in interpersonal relations and you can find yourself being persuaded by them without realizing it.

Different Viewpoints

The differences in astrological approaches are reflected in the Eastern use of a constellational, rather than solar, chart analysis. The position of the sun in your solar horoscope shows the outward manifestation of your sense of authority: how you seek to impose your authority on others. The sun’s actual position relative to the constellations shows how you relate this sense of authority to more universal realities.

If, in your solar horoscope, your sun is in Aries, it will tend to make you outgoing, even aggressive in your dealings with others. But assuming you were not born toward the very end of Aries, your sun’s actual sidereal position will be in the constellation Pisces. This will mean that your inner sense of universal influences, of authority from above, and your particular brand of inner wisdom, will be Piscean. On deeper levels, most of us are very different from the face we show to the world — not because we seek to deceive others, but only because those sensitive feelings which are at home in the depths of our mental seas would not survive at the surface. They are too deep to be verbalized.
