"I Want To Know"
I want to know, when day is done,
That life has been worth living,
That I have brought somebody joy
Through kind, unselfish giving.
I want to feel, when evening falls
and shadows quickly lengthen
That I have made somebody glad,
Some weakness I have strengthened.
I want to know that come what may
I've left some cheer and gladness;
I want to feel at close of day
I've banished someone's sadness.
I want to feel at close of day
That someone's cares were lighter
Because of kindness I have done,
May someone's life be brighter.
May you rise each texting day with fully charged
phone in your hand inspiring msg in your mind
me in your heart and a clear signal all day long
Have a Nice day!!!
Online divorcee jailed after killing virtual hubby
By MARI YAMAGUCHI, Associated Press
TOKYO: A 43-year-old Japanese woman whose sudden divorce in a virtual game world made her so angry that she killed her online husband's digital persona has been arrested on suspicion of hacking, police said Thursday.
The woman, who is jailed on suspicion of illegally accessing a computer and manipulating electronic data, used his identification and password to log onto popular interactive game"Maple Story" to carry out the virtual murder in mid-May, a police official in northern Sapporo said on condition of anonymity, citing department policy.
"I was suddenly divorced, without a word of warning. That made me so angry," the official quoted her as telling investigators and admitting the allegations.
The woman had not plotted any revenge in the real world, the official said.
HOT GAME OF THE WEEK: FAR CRY 2
She has not yet been formally charged, but if convicted could face a prison term of up to five years or a fine up to $5,000.
Players in "Maple Story" raise and manipulate digital images called "avatars" that represent themselves, while engaging in relationships, social activities and fighting against monsters and other obstacles.
The woman used login information she got from the 33-year-old office worker when their characters were happily married, and killed the character. The man complained to police when he discovered that his beloved online avatar was dead.
Four Little Foxes
Speak gently,Spring and make no sudden sound;
For in my windy valley,yesterday I found
New-born foxes squirming on the ground-
Speak gently,
Walk softly,March forbear the bitter blow;
Her feet within a trap,her blood upon the snow,
The four little foxes saw their mother go-
Walk softly.
Go lightly Spring,oh,give them no alarm;
When I covered them with boughs to shelter them
from harm,the thin blue foxes suckled at my arm-
Go lightly
Step softly March with your rampant hurricane;
Nuzzling one another,and whimpering with pain
The new little foxes are shivering in the rain-
Step softly
Move your cursor over the screen,
and you will have the impression you are flying over
the mountains.
