I've tried in vain to clean my camera lens. Yet, starting today, this black dot is appearing on all my pictures. Can anyone give me advice? I haven't dropped the camera or exposed it to dirt . . .
Although popular legend blames Napoleon and his troops during the French campaign in Egypt (1798-1801) for having shot the nose off the Great Sphinx, in fact this story just isn't true. I have yet to locate an original source for this myth. The idea that Napoleon was to blame for the Sphinx's missing nose dates at least to the beginning of the twentieth century.
One traveler to Egypt around the time of World War One wrote the following: "To take our photos sitting in front of the Sphinx on a camel was the aim of another. ...And so, repulsing the hordes of robbers on all sides, we came to the wonderful, inscrutable, worth-millions-of-pounds-to-authors Sphinx. The great riddle of the mysterious East. How many reams of rubbish have been written about this misshapen block of stone. Napoleon, a practical man, fired a few cannon balls at its face. High explosive shells were not invented in those days." [From: Sommers, Cecil. Temporary Crusaders. (London: John Lane, 1919) Chapter VI. "19th April."] Another book from about the same time (In the Footsteps of Napoleon (1915) by James Morgan, p 85) states "There is a tradition among the Arabs of the Pyramids that all the scars of time and the wounds of a hundred wars, which the Sphinx carries, were inflicted by Napoleon's soldiers, who used its mystifying and majestic countenance as a target. That, however, is only a legend for the tourist. Long before the discovery of gunpowder, the Arabs had laid iconoclastic hands on the beard of this god of the desert..." Though the Arab guides may have spread this tale, this myth has been perpetuated over the years by countless teachers the world over who have passed this bit of "history" on to their students

Le tournoi de foot rassemblera 400 joueurs, nés en 2006, à Pleudihen, ce week-end. Les meilleurs clubs européens seront là.
Trois questions à...
Jean-François Lorée, président de l'Europoussins.
Beaucoup d'éducateurs comparent l'Europoussins à l'Euro de foot des petits. Est-ce votre ambition ?
Notre souhait est de rassembler les meilleures écoles de foot européennes, françaises et amateurs. C'est dans cette recette que nous trouvons notre équilibre. Nous avons la chance d'avoir un plateau qui s'améliore d'année en année, avec des très grands clubs prestigieux, comme l'AS Roma, la Juventus ou Chelsea. Chaque club envoie à l'Europoussins ses meilleurs éléments. C'est ce qui fait que le tournoi est devenu le plus grand rassemblement de U10 en Europe.
Parmi les 48 équipes sélectionnées, 20 sont internationales. Comment arrivez-vous à les convaincre de venir à Pleudihen (Côtes-d'Armor) ?
Nous avons des ambassadeurs, des éducateurs qui sont venus à l'Europoussins et qui en parlent. Les clubs apprécient la qualité de jeu, mais aussi l'organisation millimétrée. Les matches s'enchaînent non-stop, tout en gardant un esprit de fête durant deux jours. C'est ce qu'apprécient les clubs qui parcourent parfois des très grandes distances, pour venir à Pleudihen.
Tous les clubs sont invités, et notre meilleur argument pour les convaincre de venir, c'est ce que nous proposons durant deux jours.
Le tournoi a grandi en vingt et une éditions. La compétition communale est devenue européenne. Sera-t-elle internationale un jour, avec des équipes du Brésil, par exemple ?
Ce n'est pas forcément dans nos ambitions. Il y a tellement de beaux clubs en Europe que l'on n'a pas encore fait venir : la Turquie, l'Autriche ou la Grèce. Nous avons les capacités d'accueillir encore plus d'équipes étrangères.
Et puis, il nous reste trois grands clubs à convaincre : Barcelone, le Real Madrid et le Bayern de Munich. Eux, on aimerait vraiment les avoir.

The question is how and in what way the remote viewing subliminal messages facilitate remote viewing techniques.
Can we really view things and events spatially or temporally away from our physical eyes?

- This picture resembles myself: Amidst the aggregation of nothing, feeling cramped. Pleonasm or Oxymoron?
I also hope to someday find a better picture that is worth the title.

*Addendum to my first post ００１:
This Is Me
I am the World
I'm the reflection
I am the Thought behind the window
All you see is what I reflect
Shutterd shivers
That are moving inside of your mind
Like clouds on a windy day:
The perspective will decide
If they stay
In Your field of vision.
Do You think it's reality?
What is reality anyway?
Only accelerated light?
This is not me!
These are parts, shards
Of my outter appearance
The mind,
My inner self,
Stays behind the glas
Veiled, hazy, fragile
All You reflect is what I see
Exposed elements
That are crawilng into my mind
We are the Toughts behind the windows
We're the reflections
We are the World

This image again depicted the same woman dressed in two different outfits and it relates to my research question "Can you tell a person's sexuality by their clothes?" because it shows, although with a bit of over exaggeration, how people think a straight sexy woman should dress and how a classic lesbian would dress. When I asked a small group of my peers again, they instantly stated that the woman on the left is straight and the woman on the right is a lesbian. When I asked them why they said that the one on the left was either "too sexy to be gay" or "gay woman do not dress like that". Not only does that bring to question why lesbians cannot look attractive to a straight male but also why did they choose the way they chose?
