I can't get pass my disappointment Emma Stone wasn't nominated so I'll accept the winner. Leo was my choice he's out, I'll pick George. Hugo was a good movie but the others were good too. I loved Puss in Boots and Rio. The movie that stands out is The Help as I remember that time in America. I do wish all the nominees the best because all the actors are great.

    Brad Pitt, who is my daughter's heart throb, endeared himself to me in a scene from a movie, when a man

    asked him if he was crazy and he answered "Is that a problem" so I will keep my fingers crossed for him. I

    wish all the other actors the best, however.

      i hope that the soyuz capsule launches safely to the space station. was reading tolstoy's wikipedia biography the other night and he 'believed that a true christian could find lasting happiness by striving for inner self-perfection through the great commandment of loving one's neighbor and God rathern than looking outward to the church or State for guidance.' he chose povrerty and the formal denial of the will. i think when you do that, though, that the energies of your brain that are then released from the rat race can then be utilized by the godspot in the brain to accomplish work in the higher realms. like i told joshua bell earlier this month, the monks of tibet have no doubt recreated the paradise that tibet used to be in the higher realms and in this world, they serenely sweep out the temple and wash the rice bowls. tolstoy liked matthew 19:24, 'it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter into the Kingdom of God.' i didn't know that his 'The Kingdom of God is Within You' influenced Mahatma Ghandi's campaign of nonviolent resistance in routing the british out of india. tolstoy spent the latter part of his life wearing peasant clothes and his bedroom looked very much like vincent van gogh's looked, the bare essentials. i just know that living in a small footprint sure increases my sense of peace and contentment. i can't go anywhere near those crazy political primaries without frying my poor little brain, egads! of course, i don't have to since barack obama has my vote. maybe eric holder knows all of the nitty gritty on those bankers that he used to represent. there are worse punishments in this life than what is meted out by the courts. somewhere along the way here, i have found two rings of power. i have no idea how. they are anti-matter devices. they'll never be found because i have no idea how or where i found them and then where i put them for safe-keeping! best, anna martina
