Enceladus: The Best Hope Yet for Extraterrestrial Life
When the Cassini spacecraft (launched October 15, 1997) flew within 175 km (109 miles) of Enceladus in July 2005, everything believed known about the Saturnian moon had to be discarded. With the unexpected discovery of a huge water geyser and the heavy presence of water vapor in its atmosphere, a satellite previously believed to be small and dead (meaning no geological activity) became the best hope to date for finding extraterrestrial life. Even though everything must be in place to support the existence of life water, an adequate heat source, proper chemical nutrients, and precise environmental conditions [that] result in the necessary chemical reactions [1...
Bathroom Home Decor ideas
The best way to approach bathroom decor is to begin by selecting a theme. Since bathrooms are relatively small areas, it's best to stick with a single primary theme. Once you select a theme, you'll want to choose wall art, a shower curtain, rugs, and storage items that coordinate with each other. Be sure to select items that blend with your existing wallpaper or paint color, unless you're planning to change the walls when you update the decor. Nautical Bathroom Decor Those who live near the water or enjoy spending time on the water often choose to decorate their bathrooms using a nautical theme. If you like the idea of a nautical theme, you'll be able to select among a variety of different types of...
Relationships - Do Travel Relationships Last?
A couple which met travelling on round the world trips in 2000 will soon be celebrating 10 years together! So, do travel relationships last? We started our whirlwind romance at a picturesque waterfall in Hawaii in 2000. We were both staying in the Banana Bungalow hostel in Waikiki beech (it's a great place!) The hostel was running a few small treks and we had both registered to see a local waterfall. Following a brief trek up ginger rooted dirt tracks and saving a couple of beautiful wild cuckatoos from being poached by our guide, we chatted briefly. At the top was a lovely waterfall and we both had a dip in the pool beneath. It was here we chatted more and it went from there really. We kept in...

Top 3 Romantic Holiday Destinations
Venice, Italy - This beautiful city, built on a series of islands in the centre of a huge lagoon, is a classic destination for lovers. Famed for its network of canals which make up the main thoroughfares of the town, and for it's distinctive and often crumbling buildings, Venice is a city full of surprises where you could quite happily wander for hours, hopelessly lost, only to find yourself back where you started. My advice would be to abandon all hope of knowing where you are and simply get lost in the winding streets, marvelling at the little treasures of architecture, shopping and food that Venice holds. A slight word of warning - Venice is not a city for party animals; wander the streets after...

What to Pack on Your Caribbean Cruise Vacation
Are you struggling with what to take on your cruise vacation? Here are some things I have learned about packing for a cruise. I hope the information is helpful. Of course we all have our own preferences about what we need and want on a cruise vacation. And I personally like to pack light so I don't have to handle too much luggage. I think about packing in threes and adjust up or down depending on the item (for a one week cruise). For example, I might pack three pairs of shorts and three t-shirts and three bathing suits. Increase the amount of short and t-shirts if you plan on spending more time exploring than swimming or sunning, and decrease the bathing suits. Or vice versa. This works for dresses...

Britain's Five Most Mysterious Hotels and Inns

Take for example the following 5 hotels and inns - and form your own opinion on whether or not you believe the tales. Cross Keys Hotel Originally built in 1693 as a coaching inn, the Cross Keys Hotel is the most haunted building in all of Peebles, Scotland. It is said the Bedroom #5 is haunted by the ghost of a lady named Marion Ritchie, the first landlady of the...
If you were to step out into the street and ask the first ten people you see whether or not they believed dolphins were creatures of intelligence, 8 of 10 would probably say yes. If you ask two scientists the exact same question, you just may be opening up a debate that could last for hours. Most scientists to-date have refused to take a firm stand on the intelligence level of the dolphin, and although many will admit that dolphins seem to be intelligent creatures, it is not a proven fact. The biggest problem researchers are running into seems to be the actual definition of intelligence. Darwin's theory bases intelligence on the ability of a species to recognize what it needs to survive, while other...
Hawaii in the Winter
If you are thinking about planning a trip to Hawaii, you may be wondering the best time of year to visit Hawaii. Well, anytime really. Hawaii really doesn't have an off season. The winter months of January and February seem to be the rainiest, but it's not the same kind of winter you would have in other parts of the United States. In fact the winter months may actually draw crowds during those so called rainy months. One reason is that the waves on the northern shores of the islands are much bigger during the winter. The North Shore of Ohau in particular is famous for those huge waves, sometimes coming in as high as thirty feet. These are some of the largest waves in the world. On any given...

Teeth, Black Eyes and Voracious Appetite - The Great White Shark
I've always been fascinated by the Great White shark. In fact, there's no living thing on the planet that can fill me with as much fear as this giant predator. The thought of swimming along, and feeling those razor sharp teeth sink into my leg, moments before it thrashes its enormous head back and forth in an attempt to tear my leg off is enough to keep me awake at night. I'm not the only one either. Peter Benchley realized this, and his book and subsequent movie, Jaws, has managed to keep a great many people up at night, clutching their blankets in fear. But is the Great White shark as bad as the movie portrays it? Is this giant predator misunderstood? Before answering these questions, we have to...

Meat Eaters Versus Vegetarians
The first humans populating the Earth ate a diet of fresh fruit and vegetables according to the Old Testament. Humans had neither fangs nor claws to kill, nor the swiftness to catch animals. According to Dr. Josiah Oldfield writes; "Today there is Scientific fact assured - Man belongs not to flesh eaters, but to the fruit and vegetable greens, sprouts and seed eaters." Take a look at Dr. Josiah Oldfields web site: It is a known fact that eating flesh of dead animals is hard to digest and some of it rots in the gut before elimination can take place and this putrefying residue is absorbed into the blood stream and it poisons the entire system. Flesh eating animals have a much shorter colon for faster...
