► You need to explore new territory today so see if you can get your people to back you up -- you'll learn all that the world has to offer. Someone close needs reassurance, which is easy to give. Seeing your family members in this type of mood is a rare occurrence. They're fiery, assertive and willing to say anything that crosses their minds -- except when it comes to exactly what they're up to. You can tell something is going on, but no one will give you even the tiniest of clues. They're keeping quiet, and they're proud of it. Well, think about it. They might be trying to keep a surprise from coming out? Leave it alone, just in case.

And when the time has come,
I feel all that is gripping the heart
Turning on a dream
Like the flow of water that is looking for estuary

While my step is still a question
Do not know where to hang wishful love
The dream is getting burned
Conscience is talking
It's hard to say it, but it becomes a burden

We enjoy our life wine
We enjoy the smiles and all the challenges
We enjoy the sweat and tears
No longer able to survive
Unable to run
Oh, dilemma

► EDUCATION : The Black Hole Wars: My Battle with Stephen Hawking. October 1, 2008 : Dr. Leonard Susskind (Stanford University)
Black holes, the collapsed remnants of the largest stars, provide a remarkable laboratory where the frontier concepts of our understanding of nature are tested at their extreme limits. For more than two decades, Professor Susskind and a Dutch colleague have had a running battle with Stephen Hawking about the implications of black hole theory for our understanding of reality — a battle that he has described in his well-reviewed book The Black Hole Wars. In this talk Dr. Susskind tells the story of these wars and explains the ideas that underlie the conflict. What's at stake is nothing less than our understanding of space, time, matter and information! Published on Sep 4, 2013 by SVAstronomyLectures

► Getting through the day will be a bit of a battle -- not because you're fighting with anyone, though. You just won't want to be there. You'd much prefer to be home, either alone or with the one person on the planet you feel comfortable enough to be completely silent with. It's not that you're tired -- you're just drained. You've been burning the candle at both ends lately. It's okay. Even you need to rest every now and then. You need to take part in something new and cool -- and your energy ensures that you either choose or stumble upon the perfect activity! Share it with friends or keep it to yourself.

► Unbelievable Wingsuit Cave Flight! Batman Cave, Alexander Polli. Wingsuit / BASE-jump athlete Alexander Polli does the never before done—a tactical flight through a narrow cave on a rugged mountainside. The flight starts with a jump from a hovering helicopter, Alexander reaches speeds of 250 km/h (155 mph) while following a precise trajectory leading to the cave opening, he then fully commits and flies directly through the narrow opening of the "Batman Cave". Shot in full HD, this extraordinary flight exceeds the level of commitment most fliers would ever consider—there can be no attempting, the only option is success. The narrow cave, no wider than Alexander is tall, is located in Roca Foradada Mountains in Montserrat, Spain—a location that has inspired this professional Italian Norwegian athlete's flying dream his whole life. Alexander hopes his success will inspire others not only to 'climb over their mountains,' but to also fly right through them!

► "Up/Down" Bipolar Disorder Documentary FULL MOVIE (2011). There are approximately 5.7 million people in the United States with bipolar disorder. In an attempt to eliminate the mystery and misinformation surrounding the illness, many throughout the country diagnosed with this condition were interviewed extensively. They diligently explain the struggle to balance themselves between floating to a state of euphoria and sinking to a devastating depression.

In short, "Up/Down" is a personal analysis of bipolar disorder from those living with it. Looking for something with a more scientific or clinical angle? Try a textbook. "Bipolar disorder is just one of many mental illnesses that is still highly stigmatized in our culture today, and 'Up/Down' could certainly be instrumental in changing that fact." -Microfilmmaker Magazine, Issue 65

► Stephen Hawking: Questioning the universe. Professor Stephen Hawking asks some big questions about our universe -- How did the universe begin? How did life begin? Are we alone? -- and discusses how we might go about answering them. Uploaded on Apr 4, 2008 by TEDtalksDirector

► Bipolar : A Manic Depressive illness. In this video six people who have manic depressive illness discuss the effect that it has had on their lives and they teach how to manage this serious condition. The video was produced in consultation with Professor Philip Mitchell, director of the Mood Disorders Unit at Prince of Wales Hospital, and Dr Meg Smith who is president of the NSW Association for Mental Health and who herself has manic depressive illness. Both Dr Smith and Professor Mitchell appear in the video.

Traditionally manic depressive illness has been treated primarily with medication. While medication remains the centrepiece of treatment there is increasing awareness among consumers and health professionals that treatment requires a combination of medication, counselling, attention to early warning signs of relapse and sensible and informed lifestyle choices. With careful attention to all of these things the outlook for people who have manic depressive illness is optimistic. Uploaded on Feb 28, 2012 by caden311

► Hawking: 'Ventilator Not Curbed My Lifestyle'. World-famous physicist, Professor Stephen Hawking, made clear Tuesday that being on a ventilator hasn't curbed his zest for life. He said his next aim was to go into space with British tycoon Richard Branson. (April 30)

I do not know why, I'm afraid lingering look at Stephen Hawking. What I see in him is not human, but "Something silent but so to speak "
And he is just one example of "Something". What are they learning? I am learning about Something Invisible and what is the meaning of  undetected science from the Greatest Teacher. I turned off the sound when watching this video. And I wondered to myself, "is this the famous scientist in the world? Hopefully God deign to answer one of my questions through my dreams. Frou-Frou.
