► Your routine is about to be tossed on its ear by a new person. Suddenly you either desperately want to impress the heck out of them, or shadow them everywhere they go to find out what their secret is. They are so different from you that you find them more fascinating than the latest celebrity gossip, political news or anything else. Finding out what makes them tick will be one of those challenges that inspire you to get creative and clever. This person is good for you -- in one way or another. Can you put off your own projects for one more day? Hope that you can, because all the karma you rack up today is sure to get used up in the week ahead. It's totally worth it to give unto others!

► SCIENCEDAILY 3 October 2013 : Three Hours Is Enough to Help Prevent Mental Health Issues in Teens. The incidence of mental health issues amongst 509 British youth was reduced by 25 to 33% over the 24 months following two 90-minute group therapy sessions, according to a study led by Dr. Patricia Conrod of the University of Montreal and its affiliated Sainte-Justine Hospital Research Centre. "Almost one-in-four American 8 to 15 year olds has experienced a mental health disorder over the past year. We know that these disorders are associated with a plethora of negative consequences," Conrod said. "Our study shows that teacher delivered interventions that target specific risk factors for mental health problems can be immensely effective at reducing the incidence of depression, anxiety and conduct disorders in the long term."

Oh, this is so romantic. It's very gentle stroking my feelings. Without realizing it I shed a tear because of trying to understand its meaning. I was sad because I didn't fully understand its meaning, but I could feel its softness.
Now I know what can weaken my strong feeling, beyond the power of a large house that shelters me with my baby, and my partner at this time. It's only a tenderness behind the simple sentences.
Thank you for giving me a good inspiration today.

■ Knee-Slapper: Ex-NSA/CIA chief Hayden jokes of putting Snowden on kill list. CIA contractor-turned-whistleblower Edward Snowden should be on a hit list rather than a list of names recently nominated for a Prize for Freedom of Thought. That was a joke made by former NSA director Michael Hayden. But his humor has sparked a wave of criticism. He told RT's Marina Portnaya he was misunderstood.
■ Art of Resistance: Palestinians plant flower garden in spent Israeli grenades. In the middle of the desert landscapes of the West Bank, a small village has become an oasis of Palestinian resistance against the Israeli occupation. Its residents have planted flowers in hundreds of spent Israeli tear gas grenades, to honor those killed during their weekly protests against the separation barrier. RT's Paula Slier went to see the unusual garden.

■ The Shutdown: As Seen Through Prayer in the Senate
What? Really? Well, I'm not cynical, well ... but, well .... do you believe in prayers of the people in American government? After all, ... ouch, I feel awkward with prayer by reading the text. Ehehehe, can we edit the text of a prayer if we made a typo? Ehehhee... moreover, the U.S. is known as a nation that does not believe in the power of prayer, but its people prefer to rely on force of arms, wherever they are. And now, when they're in a "Very Romantic Times" like this, they pray? Ahahaha!
(Sssh! Do not laugh when people are praying, Cisca! That's not good, you know?)
