I think the events since 1991 perfectly demonstrates the nature of both the Christian and Muslim teachings...both should be banned world wide...harmful doctrines that all peoples of sound mind should reject
oh worse went with an American adviser on a Vietnamese mine sweeper dragging a mine wire cuter alongside the bank on the Mekong, for lunch the Vietnamese dished rice covered in nu?c m?m, which is aged a few months in a barrel fermented fish.

Once shared a holiday with three Thai travel agents (guy two ladies), which was good, went to Laos boarder region, then to Buddhist Temple, next took one agents sister along with us to a dance, (he paid some dud to dance with his sister, they ordered our food while she was doing that and waiter put a plate of live pawns covered in a hot source in front me. They were all wriggling and insist i should eat them...............
I agree the Korea's North and South only exists as a divided nation because China tries to spread communism, with the support China gave the North during and after the Korean war both parts of Korea would have enjoyed (with all its failings) democracy.
However i also believe there is a line across the glob where people with the karmas to constantly being killed, engage in and suffer those types of karmas are born.
Its why Afghanistan, Iraq and the likes over many centuries play out that type of suffering rebirths. Africa, Mexico, Vietnam, Cambodia, Malaya, there to my, (just my reasoning) a line across the glob where those sorts of karmas are played out. For the idiots to send troops to engage in violence to resolve violence shows how foolish/stupid and harmful religion really is
PS mee mum always said make sure you always ware clean undies in case unexpectedly you have an accident and get taken to hospital.
On a serious level, i believe from lot of thought on subject that we suffer a form of death every second of our lives. I've said before I believe its impossible to find a truly existent "I" (self), tis impossible, our true nature is moving energy, as long as energy created cause, an effect is certain, energy does change never turns into nothing that is quite impossible, long the energy seeds cause rebirth is certain
My name is Nick Monaghan. I have been a photographer for almost 20 years and have been fascinated by insects, spiders and other invertebrates for a lot longer. In February 2005, after purchasing a new digital camera, I went out into my garden to test the macro capabilities on some grass-hoppers, and it sort of snowballed from there. I had been living on the Sunshine Coast, Southeast Queensland, Australia, from July 2001 to April 2008, and I am now based in the leafy outer eastern suburbs of Melbourne, Victoria. My original intention was to concentrate on the invertebrate (spineless) wildlife of southeast Queensland, but after the relocation to the deep south and a steadily growing collection of invertebrates from other states, I decided I should open up the field to include any insect or spider I can find anywhere in this huge country of ours.
At present, this site contains over 5,000 images of perhaps 2,000 species and I haven't even scratched the surface yet. This site has been created to share some of my photos with you and to make you aware of what exists in a world not many people take the time to explore. It may also help you identify that beetle in your garden or that spider you found in your kitchen. My aim is to keep a photographic record of whatever I can find and hopefully identify them all, although this is proving rather difficult.
I hope you find this site interesting and perhaps even informative.
And remember - without the humble ant, wasp, bug or spider, the world as we know it can not exist.
Cockies weren’t a problem where I was on the side of the Comboyne in NSW. Selected fruit tree varieties as carefully as I could, no peaches, plum, apples, pears etc, na, avocado, mango lychee, chorioma, longan, tree tomatoes, few nut trees were the main ones. Best food producing fruit (which you could probably live off) I believe is the avocado, nothing really bothers them, we had almost all our avocado fruiting under five years, had fruit about nine months of the year by planting different varieties, like in Bacon and Pilkington earliest to set fruit Hass and Reed are a couple of later fruiting varieties.
some rain and now outside misty clouds are swirling across the mountain tops and ridges, a few birds are whistling, light is filtering through the clouds, a flock of bush ducks are feeding on grass 50 yards from my window
