Welcome to Gaia! ::

Saturday, August 8th, 2009. Seems just like any other day for three members of a Pennsylvania family in a private plane and five Italian tourists and the pilot in a helicopter. However, this was going to a be a day unlike any other. Everyone in the both aircraft died, and there has been no word on exactly how.

The cause of this accident? An unresponsive black box used to communicate with our pilots. One of the pilots of a different aircraft tried to communicate with the doomed helicopter pilot, saying, "You have a fixed-wing behind you". There was no response from the pilot of the helicopter, leading it to it's downfall.

Shortly after, the pilot who had tried to warn the point of the helicopter, watched in horror as the private planes wing clipped the helicopter, splitting both aircraft apart, both then fell into the water.

The people identified in the crash are, the plane's pilot was 60-year-old Steven Altman. Also in the plane were 49-year-old Daniel Altman, and his 16-year-old son, Douglas.

The five tourists were Michele Norelli, 51; his son Filippo Norelli, 16; Fabio Gallazzi, 49; his wife, Tiziana Pedroni, 44; and their son Giacomo Gallazzi, 15.

The area where they were flying in was a busy aviation corridor where planes are free to choose how and where they fly, as long as they stay under 1,000 feet (305 metres) and don't get too close to Manhattan skyscrapers. Many accidents happen around this area.

As you know, Michael Jackson, the "King of Pop," died over two months ago, but there is still a big commotion going with Michael Jackson fans. Many are asking, "What was in the medicine he took that made him die?" Currently nobody knows, but the doctors are doing some research so they can explain what happened to Michael Jackson's father, Joseph Jackson, who is threatening legal action against the offending hospital.

On the radio, a certain celebrity said he will take Michael Jackson place and become King of Pop, and claimed that Jackson wasn't as talented as the hype made him out to be. The response was enormous, as a flood of Jackson fans called in to the radio station, furiously cursing and accusing the celebrity of being cruel.

In the newspapers and magazines, they talk about Michael Jackson’s tribute, from the music and speeches to how his family reacted. When the Michael Jackson tribute event happened, there were speeches delivered that really touched their hearts. Michael Jackson's daughter, Paris Jackson, said that she loved him and she is going to miss him. Many who saw the tribute burst in tears and cried, as sympathetic sentiment for the King of Pop and his family ran high.

In addition, Michael Jackson songs have been a huge hit this since Michael Jackson's death. Anybody who is a fan does not want Michael Jackson’s music out of their lives. They buy Michael Jackson music at stores like Wal-mart and Target or at specialty music shops. Some fans buy every Michael Jackson CD they can get their hands on. Amongst the most popular are the CDs released recently, with collections of hits from the past. It would appear that despite his death, Michael Jackson may yet retain the title, "King of Pop," without end.

Note from the Editor: Since this article was written, Michael Jackson's death has been ruled a homicide. See CNN.com for more details.







If so, you may need a Nepenthes attenboroughii. Founded in the Philippines, on a remote mountain is a plant called Nepenthes attenboroughii stated in the family of the pitcher plants...recently known as the rat trap. The Nepenthes attenboroughii is very similar to the Pitcher Plant, a bell-like plant that lures insects inside using sweet smelling enzymes, then dissolves them for nutrition. The difference? The N. attenboroughii is so large it can hold an adult-sized rat in it's leaves, dissolving the animal with acidic enzymes.





How was it found? A group of scientists and explorers heard from missionaries on the island of Palawan rumors of large pitcher plants. The idea was to great to resist, scourging the dense jungles they found the N, naming it after Sir David Attenborough, a TV naturalist who held the Nepenthes genus in high regard.

“He has inspired a generation into protecting the world and developing greater understanding diversity of the planet,” Stewart McPherson said, one of the scientists on the trek said of Sir David. Recently, many believe there have been 30 new species of the N. attenboroughii founded on that same mountain, but no information has been released as of yet.

So next time your in need of a rat trap and don't have the money...remember the Nepenthes attenboroughii; you never know when mother nature will reach out a lending hand.

Try not to scream: this article is about MySpace and Facebook. But even those of you who hate Internet-based social networking can appreciate its rapid growth and appeal to the "unwashed" masses. Social Networking services as we know them are predated by "older" methods of socializing, like bulletin boards or forums

Perhaps I'm being over-critical -- the acclaim of some of these types of sites is nothing to sneeze at, and it's made a lot of ingenuitive people very rich and/or famous. But regardless of my personal feelings about the topic, I'm here to educate you on its history. Perhaps it'll serve to inspire you to create a successful website of your own; if that's the case, don't forget the little guy who gave you the idea, okay?

Now, I dug up a list of various social networking websites. There are over four-hundred at this point, and determining chronology would be a daunting, if not impossible, task. So I apologize to those who like to peruse the lesser-known sites, but I plan to only cover those that are the most well-known in addition to those sites with which I am the most familiar. Let's start, shall we? (For all these subsections, clicking on the graphic will take you to that site's U.S. branch.)

Cyworld -- never heard of it, have you? Neither had I, until a friend of mine decided to point me in that direction for this article. Cyworld was created in 1999, and was mainly a networking site for Asia, based in South Korea. It introduced the concept of the "mini-homepage" (the same concept as every user having a unique MySpace page), and creating relationships with other users (i.e. buddies or friends) by linking their mini-homepages together.
As of late, the site has been expanded to include China, Japan, Sweden, Taiwan, the United States, and Vietnam.

When someone mentions "social networking," usually either MySpace or Facebook come to mind. But we're backing up a little bit to 2002, to the site that originally inspired MySpace into existence. Friendster is a social networking website headquartered in Sydney, Australia. Users can send messages, share photos and videos, and comment on the uploads of others. Haven't heard of it? It probably isn't too surprising; its success is phenomenal with 90 million registered users...but nearly 90% of that traffic comes from Asia, odd considering the site is based in Australia. Friendster holds several patents in the realm of social networking, and they were the basis for several similar sites to come.

Here's the one you've been waiting for (or dreading, depending on your outlook). MySpace was founded in 2003, and quickly grew to be a phenomenon in the Social Networking arena. Two years after its peak in user base, however, it was overtaken by Facebook.
MySpace employs photo and video sharing, a forum community, special profiles for bands, musicians, and celebrities, friend list announcements, and more recently, applications for the profiles. An individual profile in and of itself is nothing more than a simplified web page generator, where a user can either input direct text, or flare it up with HTML, should they have the knowledge or resources to do so (or have it done for them, as the case may be.)
MySpace has faced significant controversy over the years due to safety issues, though it can be said that it is only due to it being the first major social networking site to become popular in the United States. News outlets made large press out of MySpace-related suicides and abductions, leaving citizens to fail to come to the conclusion that it is simply a fact of the Internet -- not MySpace itself -- that these incidents take place.
Prior to Facebook becoming a major player, MySpace had a rivalry with another type of networking website called YouTube. For a short stint, YouTube videos were disabled for usage in MySpace profiles to help control the competition and promote MySpace video. The plan backfired, however, and outcry from the user base of MySpace caused them to revert back to permitting YouTube videos, but with special encoding that disabled the ability to use the video to link to YouTube itself. YouTube countered by adding features into embedded videos that essentially permitted a user to "browse" videos on YouTube from a finished video.
MySpace remains a major competitor in social networking, but remains second to Facebook. In an attempt to catch up, MySpace implemented "applications" similar to Facebook's, but thus far the attempt has not brought them back up in front of the competitor.

YouTube was designed to be a video networking site, permitting users to upload videos they created for critique and view by the user base. Whether or not this has actually occurred is still up for debate, as many television producers would contest.
YouTube first appeared in 2005, and the "myth" as it were behind it was closely linked to the old saying, "If you don't have pictures, it didn't happen." Apparently at a party, a few PayPal employees couldn't share a video with a friend of theirs who didn't believe that something had actually taken place. Whether this is what really happened is still up in the air, apparently, but regardless of the origin, the site became extraordinarily popular, rivaling MySpace in number of users for a significant period of time.
Just over a year after founding, the site was purchased by Google and became one of its subsidiaries. Today, YouTube is used by people all over the world, and was partially responsible for the discovery of many amateur filmmakers, and the spreading of Internet fads, such as Lego videos, and the quick spread of memes. YouTube is criticized, however, for allowing content that is copyrighted to be uploaded by its user base. Technically, it is against the Terms of Service, but YouTube never takes these videos down themselves; they always wait for a request from the owner of the copyright. This leaves the site open to criticism from copyright holders, questioning whether YouTube is popular for user-created content, or for the ability to watch copyrighted material for free.

Twitter is a recently growing community of people on the Internet. Taking advantage of a vast love of the concept of text messaging, Twitter has but one major function: the "what are you doing now?" function made popular by Facebook. Once a user marks what they're doing or feeling at any particular moment, the message is sent to anyone who is "following" the user. In many cases, if that user is subscribed to by a friend who uses "device updates," then a text will be sent as well. Once a person's cell phone is linked to their Twitter account, they can send their updates via text to the Twitter server, and it will update the site for them without forcing them to log in at a computer to do so. Several businesses are now twitter-capable, permitting fans, customers, or otherwise interested parties, to receive regular updates.

Now, I know thare are so many more social networking sites out and about, but this is all I plan to cover...at least for now. Remember, there are over 400 sites out there, and I simply can not chronicle them all. But if you want to submit a review of your favorite Social Networking site for next month's issue, that's 1,000g in your pocket.

Its just another afternoon, and your playing your good ol' Xbox 360. But then all of the sudden your game froze, but its still no big deal! You just turn it off and back on like the other couple of times. Now as you wait for your system to turn back on you hear a beeping noise... you turn your head at the system's power button and see what every Xbox 360 owners' worst nightmare is... THE RED RING OF DEATH!!!

This is a common problem in the Xbox 360 considering almost everyone will get it no matter how well you treat your Xbox. About 90% of the cause for the red ring is because of overheating. So then you think, hmmm.... "Then I should just play it less!" This is partly true, but at the same time it isn't. See, the Xbox 360 was the earliest of the new generation gaming consoles to be made, so it has the weakest hardware of them too. Plus, this frame work for this system isn't exactly efficient, either. In the frame for the 360, the fan only cools one side of the motherboard while the other side gets fried to a crisp. So if you didn't figure it out, that is where the overheating happens.

1. If all the lights but the first or third rings are lit, then you have the real issue and what is what most people refer to as the red ring of death.
   
   
2. If all the lights but the second is lit, then you have just overheated your Xbox 360 slightly. This can usually be fixed by simply unplugging every part of your 360 and letting it cool down for a couple of hours.
   
   
3. If all the lights but the forth ring are lit, then you just got lucky. Since this mean its a hardware failure and all you need to do is make sure all of your cords are plugged in accordingly and there is no faulty wires.

Yay! Now the important part! Now most people know that if you have any error what so ever in your 360 then you can send it to Microsoft using their website or calling the number (800) 4MY-XBOX. Its a toll free number that can explain everything. Please note that your warranty for anything other then the red ring is one year, for the red ring it is three years. Also remember that this process will take quite a bit of time, about two weeks to a month! But you have the satisfaction that it will be in good hands!

Alternately, there are said to be other solutions to this persistent problem! These video links below can explain how to do them, but please note that the Gaian Record International, the video makers, nor I are responsible for any broken 360's or anything else caused by your experimentation! Also, be advised that opening your Xbox 360 will automatically void your warranty.



Now I hope this article has helped you fix your red ring of death problems and you are enjoying your fixed 360! Please know that I have not done any of the "Tricks" myself but I know some people that have and their Xbox works great!









It is nearing the end of summer and we all know what that means: school will be starting, and for some of us it already has. Here are some tips to help get your year started right.

1. Shopping: Start your back to school shopping earlier, so you don’t have to rush to buy all of your clothes! Start shopping during your summer vacation. Buy a shirt or a pair of jeans here and there that way it won’t be such a strain on your or your parent’s wallet all at once. This tip might be a little late but save it for next year!
   
   
2. Money Smart: If you are tight on money this year but still want some ‘new’ clothes, try hitting up the thrift stores if your area. Don’t be embarrassed by it, many people do shop at thrift stores. You’d be surprised what treasures you can find!
   
   
3. Breakfast: Try to wake up early every morning to have breakfast. It will make you feel more awake and attentive. But be sure to get your rest as well!
   
   
4. Teachers: Teachers are people too. Get to know them, and be friendly. In the long run it might be beneficial to you when you need a letter of recommendation written. Some colleges do require it.
   
   
5. Homework: We all dread it. But you don’t always have to finish homework at home. Try to finish it in class. If you’re in English but aren’t doing anything, pull out your math homework and have at it. You’re in school anyway; why not just get it over with?
   
   
6. Meeting new People: Old friends are great but sometimes you might not have any classes together and it’s hard to see each other. This doesn’t mean abandon them and find new friends but it does give you the opportunity to meet new people. So take advantage of the situation and make the best out of it.

You read about it in the papers when journalists talk about the likes of Amy Winehouse, Britney Spears and Lindsay Lohan. Perhaps you see it in the street when strangers walk past you, or maybe your knowledge comes from a friend. You are shown the physical and emotional effects on the user daily, be it in the papers, the news, or in everyday people on the street. You may even believe that you understand the problems of others. But the truth is, nobody really understands the life-altering effects of drugs and alcohol unless it affects his or her own life.

Many people look at users and think, "What an idiot!" or "Good-for-nothing!" but coming from a family that has been torn apart by drugs and alcohol, I know different. I love my mother, and I know that will never change no matter what she does; her hard work and brains have helped to keep a roof over our heads for at least sixteen years, proving that it was not selfishness or stupidity that sent her over the edge, but a mixture of depression bought on by stress, a lack of faith in her own abilities and post-natal depression bought on by me.

The repercussions of my mother's actions on my family caused my father to be in denial and my sister to lose her childhood innocence so I could keep mine. At the age of six, my sister was the main mother figure in my life, and she was never thanked for it; her hard work meant I didn't truly understand the issue until I was forced into a similar position at the age of sixteen (this year). She spent eight years sheltering me from the pain caused by my mother, and not once did I thank her for it, and neither did my father. She saved my mother as well, by being her personal rock, accompanying her to counseling sessions every week for three years, and stopping her from going too far. She helped cook the meals, she made sure I got to bed on time, and stayed awake to talk to me when a particularly nasty fight was happening between our parents downstairs.

She didn't do very well in her exams at the age of eleven. I was always led to believe that it was because she hadn't tried hard enough, but only now, after handling my mothers relapse alone in my GCSE year do I realize that it was because she was trying too hard in life and something just had to give.

I myself was not completely sheltered from the pain the first time around, even though my mother quit when I was nine. I got to an age when I was beginning to understand the problems that had occurred before, and it was then that I could be there for my sister after the hardship she had gone through to shelter me from it at the time. The enormity of it caused a seven-week mental breakdown when I was eleven.

At the age of fourteen, my sister was cautioned for shoplifting. At the age of fifteen, she was a heavy smoker. Now, at the age of eighteen, she's dabbling in hard drugs and hiding it, whilst I, being the only one who knows about the hard drugs and the first by years to realize that she was smoking, silently regret not saving her like she saved me.

My family's problems are not rare; thousands, if not millions of families go through the similar problems every year. So next time you see an alcoholic or a drug addict, take time to think about the family suffering silently behind them.

The death of composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart age 35 may have died from strep throat. A Dutch study on Monday, August 17th states that the death on September 5th, 1791, could have been caused by a number of problems, from intentional poisoning, to theumatic fever, to undercooked pork.

Mozart's death certificate has hitzifes Frieselfieber officially recorded a.k.a. heated military fever; which is a rash looking like millet seeds. The theories surrounding his death, however, were mostly based on accounts written decades after his death from people that have witnessed Mozart's last days, rather than any particularly reliable source.

A new study reported in the Annals of Internal Medicine, was based on information from official death registers for Vienna in the winter of 1791 that places Mozart's death in a wider context. Mozart died in Vienna.

"Our findings suggest that Mozart fell victim to an epidemic of strep throat infection that was contracted by many Viennese people in Mozart's month of death, and that Mozart was one of several persons in that epidemic that developed a deadly kidney complication," states researcher Richard Zegers, of the University of Amsterdam in the Netherlands.

This "minor epidemic" of step throat may have begun in the city's military hospital. Witnesses do say that Mozart fell ill with an "inflammatory fever," which is consistent with strep throat.

The strep throat infection became worse and turned into a kidney inflammation with severe swelling, back pain, and rash, ultimately ending the life of a composer of more than 300 famous works.

For thousands of years silk has been a highly esteemed fabric. It was invented some 5,000 years ago in China, and for about the first 2,000 of those years the secret of producing silk was guarded and remained in China. Finally silkworm eggs and the knowledge of how to produce this textile were smuggled out of China and spread to many places around the globe. Silkworms are actually domesticated insects, and their scientific name is Bombyx mori, sometimes shortened to B. mori. They no longer live naturally in the wild at all, and they only exist to produce silk. If people did not keep them alive for silk production, they would simply disappear. They eat nothing but the leaves of mulberry trees (or substances made from mulberry leaves). When the worms are in their caterpillar stage they are mulberry leaf eating machines. After an enormous growth spurt they extrude a chemical to make a cocoon, and this hardens quickly when exposed to air and turns into silk fiber. The silk worms work for 2-3 days and produce one long strand of silk fiber normally about 400-600 meters in length which makes a cocoon that protects the pupa while it is in the process of metamorphosis into a moth. Silk production unravels this strand and combines it with many others to form the fabric we know as silk. It is interesting to note that most of the pupa are killed in the production process, and only enough moths are born to lay eggs for the next generation of caterpillars.

Silk Properties

Silk has many remarkable properties. It is light in weight and when used in clothing can keep one cool in summer and surprisingly warm in winter. Silk is sometimes used as a liner in winter garments. Silk is very flexible and will return to its original shape without a lot of wrinkling. It can be stretched by as much as 20-25% and return to its original condition. In particular silk takes well to both natural and synthetic dyes, and that is why it is used in colorful parts of the wardrobe such as silk scarves for women and neck ties for men. Taking silk scarves along when traveling is a good way for women to stretch their wardrobes and carry less clothing. That is, a different colored silk scarf can make the same outfit look different.

Wild Silk

There is a certain amount of production of silk made from caterpillars other than B. mori, and India is the leader in this area. This production is small and uneven, however, because the caterpillars cannot be domesticated like B. mori, and the cocoons need to be found in the wild. Also, with B. mori numerous generations can be produced in a year using heating, lighting and other techniques, whereas with the wild silkworms there can only be one generation each year. The silk made from wild silkworms is said to be a bit more rough than the silk made from B. mori.

Conclusion

Silk has a fascinating history, and in the heyday of silk production hundreds of thousands of people around the world earned at least part of their incomes from some facet of the silk industry. Since synthetic fibers like nylon and especially rayon were invented, the demand for silk has dropped a good deal, but there will always be some demand for the real thing.
