Hubble Space Telescope Finds Clouds On Super-Earth, Neptune-Sized Planets

Using NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope, two research teams have discovered thick layers of high-altitude clouds covering the atmospheres of two relatively nearby exoplanets: a super-Earth and a "warm Neptune."

Scientists are beginning to get a handle on how to study the atmospheres on alien planets, and have even found green clouds on the super-Jupiter planet, Kepler-7b. But the findings, published in the journal Nature this week, show that clouds can cover smaller planets too — including two of the most common types of planets found in the Milky Way.

Neither of the planets, GJ 436b and GJ 1214b, are quite like anything found in our solar system. GJ 436b is a warm Neptune that’s slightly larger than Neptune and much closer to its host star. Thus unlike our own distant, gassy ice giant, GJ 436b’s surface temperature sits about a blistering 980 degrees Fahrenheit. It is 36 light-years from Earth in the constellation Leo. GJ 1214b, a super-Earth whose radius is 2.7 times that of our home planet, sits about 40 light-years away in the constellation Ophiuchus.

New Year’s Twin Babies Born In Separate Years

Such a Cool News Story!  Just had to share it!!!

As people around the world partied their way into the new year, two mothers gave birth to two of the last babies of 2013 and two of the first babies of 2014.  While born just minutes apart, their twin babies entered the world in two different years.

On Dec. 31, 2013, at 11:58 p.m., Yaleni Santos Tohalino gave birth to baby girl Lorraine Yaleni Begazo, who weighed at 6 pounds, 4.9 ounces, at MedStar Washington Hospital Center, in Washington, D.C.

Soon after, her twin brother Brandon Ferdinando Begazo was born on Jan. 1, 2014, at 12:01 a.m., weighing at 5 pounds, 10.4 ounces.

Pet Winter Safety: Prepping Your Pet for Winter Weather

When the weather outside is frightful, these winter pet tips can keep your precious pets snug, safe, and warm.


Keeping Warm: Fur Isn't Flawless

We may admire our pets' plush coats, but as beautiful as fur is, it's not a perfect insulator, especially when it's very cold.
In winter, pets can suffer from the weather extremes "for the same reason that mountain climbers can get hypothermia no matter what type of protective clothing they are wearing," says Oregon veterinarian Marla J. McGeorge, DVM. "Mammalian systems for heat retention and regulation can be overwhelmed by excessive cold."
And, if an animal's coat gets wet, the fur loses much of its insulating ability, McGeorge tells WebMD. For cats and dogs with short fur, the protection is even more minimal, "sort of like wearing a T-shirt when it's below freezing."

Adding To Our New Year



Studies have proven that we rarely keep our New Year’s resolutions.   I believe the reason for this is due to feelings of being deprived.  And when we feel deprived, we tend to get a bit rebellious!  I know I do.   

For me and many others like myself,  it’s not like we don’t have the will power, we just don’t want to do without.  

So!  For 2014 I am going to pass on a wonderful suggestion that was graciously and generously passed to me by EFT Master and Pioneer Carol Look.   Instead of taking away anything from your life this new year, why not Add Something Good instead?

The following is an excerpt from her latest newsletter:

So what could you ADD to your life in this New Year?  More fun? More healthy foods? More meditation time? More nature walks? More gratitude?  How about more tapping? Or more quiet time or more reading?  

There's so much we can add... and it will take the place of those habits we want to delete from our lives and be far more enjoyable than trying so hard to get rid of something.

Yes, it can be a challenge to think in these new terms where you Add Something Good, but it's definitely worth it.  You'll notice the difference in your vibration and in your enthusiasm about your life.

Even if it's an old habit to make New Year's resolutions that start with "No more....." you can start this new habit of "I get to add..." and you'll feel it right away.

So let's get started - think of one or two areas in your life where you'd like to Add Something New.  Write those new things or activities down... and then notice if there are any "yes, buts..." such as "yes, but, I don't have the time" or "yes, but that doesn't seem possible for me."  (Below we'll do some tapping to move you along.)


What does this have to do with attracting abundance? 

When you Add Something Good,  you are automatically coming from a place of plenty and abundance and communicate to the universe that you are ready to move forward.  Your vibration will immediately be more joyful and more abundant.

Final Thoughts on 2013

Everybody is feeling it.   But unlike years past, 2014 has everyone literally buzzing and filled to the brim with excitement as we anxiously prepare for the new year.  Many of us are feeling an uncharacteristic expectation of something BIG is coming.  

Not only that.  In the  last few months of 2013 many have been experiencing intense dreams, waking up at 2 a.m. and 3 a.m.,  feeling anxious and heart racing like they just finished a marathon.

What is it that we all collectively are feeling these last hours of 2013? 

Could it be that we are collectively fed up with how things have been going in our lives?  Could it be that we finally are getting it?  Could it be that we are finally letting go and allowing it to happen?
Could be!
If you read my two previous blogs entitled Pondering 2013 (Part 1 & Part  2), you already know that I've begun my process of "letting go and allowing" a few weeks ago.
But as I sit here and watch the news feed on my Face Book, I see I am not the only one finally releasing ALL the people, situations, and other similar freeze dried bullshit from their lives early in the game.


And can't help but notice numerous Face Folk posting about the waking up at 2 and 3 in the morning; complaining of the odd dreams, the anxiety, the restlessness, etc.    Naturally, we all know these are all part of the Awakening process or the Ascension process as some call it.  

I am going to take this opportunity to say to all of you who are new to the experience and those who are less familiar with the process 



WELCOME to my End of the Universe! 
We've Been Expecting You!

To Help you all out, I've listed some links to articles I've written/posted here on my blogs.  Be sure you read ALL the way down to the very end!


*~*~*~*~*~*

Honestly, I think I've said All I need to say with regards to what's on my so-called mind!  At least for now here in 2013!  

Oh I do have two last things to add.  

My motto going in 2014 is: 


The Freeze Dried Bullshit that Happened in 2013 STAYS in 2013!


To bring that message home I've adopted a theme song for 2014.  Click HERE



*LOLOLOL*

I don't know about all of you, but for me 2014 is going to be ANYTHING BUT the 




























As promised!  Here are links to my articles that pertain to this process.    Feel free to print them out, share them with friends and family! 

The Spiritual Awakening, Ascension Process, The Transition, What EVER...




Some Tips and helpful hints on Working through the process:




And I thought I would add this article as well.  It goes along with what I've been ranting about for the past several weeks! *LOL*   It's entiled Instead.

People Who Are Religious or Spiritual Have "Thicker" Brains

People who are religious or spiritual have ‘thicker’ brains, new research suggests.

Parts of the brain’s outer layer, the cortex, were found to be thicker in people who were religious, than in those who were not.


U.S. researchers studied people with a family history of depression and found the thickening related to religion could offer protection against the condition.
