2. Write a book- You could write a book on your life and how I told you to write a story, so you did. Then you could give me 1/2 of what you make so its a win-win situation.

3. Talk- Instant message, e-mail, call, text. Just talk to people it may be the most fun that you have ever had while trying to waste time.

4. Cook- I know that some guys are out there reading this and saying to them self that they would never cook something to waste time and they would much rather go get high, but don't. Cooking is a life long skill and for those guys out there, ladies like it when you make dinner for once. And for the girls, guys expect you to make breakfast lunch and dinner everyday. Untill you get in a fight and get divorced.

5. Go Jogging- Exercise is very good for the human body--even though its very boring. Bring your MP3 player along-- and if you don't have one, get one; they are very useful to waste time with. Just go out there and take a 20 minute jog just once a day, maybe before you go to work or before you go to bed. Or just when ever your bored and want to waste time.

6. Practice imitations- If your going to imitate something, you might as well practice to make it sound good. This seems like the most boring way to waste time, but hey, wasting time is boring; and in this case, it's funny when you're good at it.

7. Run into a wall- After a while it gets fun because you're all loopy.

8. Get a Triond account- Triond.com is a web site where you get money for making articles that get viewed a lot. You can make a buck a month and in the end you waste more time than you ever have in your life. I would know.

9. Start chucking stuff- If you can find a brick around your house your lucky. Otherwise just fling a rubber band around your house and go get it. You get exercise from this and it's crazy how far/high rubber bands can get if they're big enough.

10. Read this list- Just by viewing and reading this you wasted a couple minutes of your time. Now go Pro at wasting time and comment to waste 10 min of your life.

Rising Sun Anger Release Bar

A bar in East China’s Jiangsu Province became a big hit among customers by offering an outlet for the stresses and strains of everyday life. At Rising Sun Anger Release Bar, customers can smash glasses or rant, curse, scream and shout from the top of their lungs. Their main attraction is the physical abuse you can do to their staff if you feel like you want to punch or kick somebody. The Bar employs 20 men in their 20’s and 30’s that have been given protective gear as well as regular physical training to prepare them for the job. For 50 to 300 Yuan (US$6.25-$37.50) patrons may ask them to look like whatever way they want before they attack them. For the worst stressed out cases counseling sessions are also available from four psychology students from local universities. Interestingly, most of the customers are women from the local service industry.

The place actually looks more like a theme park than an eating place. It is said to be one nice place for a family with kids who can play around the floating huts and the giant sculptures of monkeys, fishes, dinosaurs and even Mayan-Aztec themed structures. But if you’re here to release that pent-up anger, go ahead and smash a P15 cup or plate on the Tacsiyapo Wall. If that’s not good enough, you can choose a flower vase, wall clock and even a working P1500 TV set as you shout “Tacsiyapo!!!” which means Shame on you! This is said to be a good marketing publicity for this seafood eating place in Tarlac, Philippines. Most customers who smash stuff on the wall don’t really do it to release their anger, but rather to have fun with family or friends as they aim for the words on the wall that says: “Corrupt,” “Gossip,” “In-laws,” “Other woman” among others.

From the time when they born, they are carried on the back of their mother till the age of around 9 - 12 months and moreover as they reach to the age of 2 - 3.5 years, they reach to the age they are called as sexually matured ones.

The Giant Ant Eater is mostly found in swamps, grasslands and tropical forests. As mentioned above they have been found in the parts from Southern Belize to Argentina and the areas including densely as well as scarcely populated areas. The maximum length in which the animal grows up to is about 7 feet and generally their weight is about 86 lbs. The animal is known to have sharp claws which can grow up to 3 - 5 inches long. It is covered with hair so it's mostly found in brown and grey color with stripes of black and white in between.

In mythological terms, the bee is said to bridge the natural world from the underworld, a carrier of souls - just as the bee returns to the hive, honest souls return to heaven, and the good and pure bees transport new souls to be re-born into the world.

The extent of the mysterious disappearance of our bees is difficult to ascertain as media, beekeepers associations and Government figures per country seem to issue contradictory figures, however, reports indicate that up to between 25 and 45% of the global population are gone!

The term Colony Collapse Disorder(CCD) was coined in 2006 in the USA, it refers to the disappearance of worker bees from honey bee colonies before the brood has reached adulthood.

However, the disappearance is not limited to hives, as reports indicate that solitary bees are disappearing in the same numbers due to cause/s unknown.

The fact that bees do not die in the hive, makes it extremely difficult for investigators to determine causes.

It is known that honey bees forage at distances between 2 - 5 km from the hive, however, considering the numbers of missing bees, investigators cannot find anywhere near a corresponding number of bee corpses - the plot thickens!

A number of universities and government agencies have formed a “CCD working group” to search for potential causes of the bee disappearance and then to formulate a working plan to mitigate CCD.

Consequences of Bee Decline

It has been estimated that the value of bees to the word economy is $ 180 billion!

The bee is responsible for one out of three mouthfuls of food we eat.

Decline will therefore significantly decrease food availability, driving food prices up.

This is a huge problem - that will affect us all.

The impact upon our already tenuous global economy cannot be underestimated.

Funding has been granted for a film to be made to explore why bees matter so much and to attempt to answer the question of why they are dying off. For more about the film, visit www.vanishingbees.com

In many hives, where the majority of bees have disappeared, scientists have found evidence of almost all known bee viruses in each of the few remaining bees. Some bees have five or six infections at once, as well as being affected by fungi, an indication, experts say, that the bee's immune system may have collapsed.

Another mystery is that other insects and non resident bees do not go near hives once they have suffered CCD, unaffected deserted hives would usually be raided for honey and pollen stores.

Theories Regarding The Cause of Decline in the Global Bee Population

There are many theories regarding CCD, a few of these are listed below:-

Virus, Disease, Parasites

The bee has many natural parasites / disease and viruses, I have listed a few of the most common, this list however is not definitive

Varroosis is caused by an Asian parasitic mite which spread to Europe in the 1990's.

The mites feed on both adult bees and the brood.

The bee is weakened by the mite which also hosts other diseases which are then spread from bee to bee.

Nosema ceranae is a microsporidian fungus, which in extreme cases can wipe out a hive within eight days. However, there has been no direct link established with this infection and CCD and the fungus has been identified within healthy hives.

Chronic bee paralysis virus

Most viral diseases of bees are associated with stress. This may take the form of climatic pressures but is more often associated with other diseases or parasites.

Affected bees, tremble, bloat and lose hair from their bodies and eventually lose the power of flight, leading to death.

It must be noted however that not all hives with CCD contained evidence of any one type of mite, disease or virus infestation which could be classified as a clear cause.

Genetically Modified Crops

A farming industry organisation entitled “The Supply Chain Initiative on Modified Agricultural Crops” (SCIMAC) has developed guidelines for farmers growing GM crops. But there are no provisions within these for protecting beehives from contamination with GM pollen, or even to inform beekeepers if GM crops are to be grown in their area.

A small study, conducted at the University of Jena, between 2001 and 2004 examined the effects of pollen from a genetically modified maize variant called “Bt corn” on bees.

A gene from a soil bacterium had been inserted into the corn which enabled the plant to produce an agent, toxic to insect pests.

The study concluded that there was no evidence to suggest that the “Bt corn” had any adverse effects upon bees.

However, at the end of the study, the bees became infested with a natural parasite which resulted in “a significantly stronger decline in the number of bees” than would have been normally been expected - suggesting the “Bt corn” had somehow weakened the bees natural ability to fight infection.

Unfortunately further investigation into this matter was halted due to lack of funding.

Electromagnetic Disruption

Bees carry an electromagnetic charge which aids in the adherence of pollen.

It is notable that the earths natural magnetic field, which has been charted for the past 150 years has decayed by 5% in that time.

The possibility that natural decline in the earths magnetic field and/or un-natural human electrical activity / disruption has disrupted the bees natural electo-biological balance should also an avenue for investigation.

Torsion Field Disruption

Torsion fields are hypothesised to be the forces (spinning electro-magnetic waves) which hold matter in a particular form or shape.

It is interesting to note that natural bee nests with chamber cells are natural torsion generators.

Russian naturalist and entomologist Viktor Stepanovich Grebennikov came across a “bee city” in the steppes of the Kamyshlovo valley.

He became engrossed with studying the bees and decided to spend the night there - out in the open.

When he tried to fall to sleep, he had terrible and strange experiences: sensations of expansion and contracting, falling, flashes in front of his eyes, a metallic taste in the mouth, ears ringing, head spinning, feeling light and then heavy nausea - which he attributed to an effect of strong electro-magnetic torsion fields produced by the bees.

Upon return to the “bee city” a few years later he noted that the bees had died, he picked up a handful of old clay lumps with multiple chamber cells, he again experienced the odd feelings he had when he spent the night there.

Grebennikov theorised that the hollow chambers held a strong natural torsion field that appeared to affect all matter around it.

Grebennikov studied the “Cavernous Structures Effect” and found that clocks, both mechanical and digital, when placed in a strong CSE field started to run inaccurately.

Another finding of the CSE effect was that trays of dry honeycombs, positioned above the head apparently cured headaches.

Climatic Chaos

Our planet is in a period of climatic chaos - often (inaccurately) referred to as global warming, the causes of which are yet to be identified and agreed upon.

Periods of prolonged wet weather during summer months confines bees to the hive, leaving them less time to forage for enough nectar to see them through the winter.

This disruption could also be the cause of stress to the bee, leading to a weaker immune system, thus leaving the bee vulnerable to disease / illness.

Herbicides / Pesticides

There is a widespread practice in agriculture of spraying wildflowers / crops with herbicides / pesticides.

One prolific pesticide used in many countries is known as “Neo-nicotine” (marketed in many brand names) - the chemical disorientates “pest insects”, resulting in memory loss, rotting of their digestive system and weakening of the immune system - Very similar to the observed symptoms of CCD.

It is also important to note that these pesticides are often within the seed and root of a crop - therefore, impossible to wash off by the human consumer.

A strong case for further independent scientific study has to be made in the case of pesticides.

Poor Husbandry

Inaccurate diagnosis of bee illness within a kept hive can lead to ineffectual and often harmful compounds being administered, often in the wrong dosage.

There is also evidence of stress within the particular, which is exacerbated by dwindling numbers.

Keepers often have to transport hives across country, hundreds of miles, to ensure pollination of specific crops.

Agricultural Monocultures

Selection of specialised profitable crops by farmers leads to a lack of natural choice for bees when foraging for pollen. Limited dietary factors may contribute to the CCD phenomenon,

Conclusion

CCD could be caused by any one of a number of factors, or it may be a culmination of many factors, however, with no known cause there can be no effective treatment.

Natural bee decline has been noted in previous years, but not to the extent that we are seeing it today, and with the world population at an all time high, the ramifications upon food production are critical.

It is our fundamental responsibility to determine if the cause of death for billions of bees is a consequence of human activity, as has been the case for many other species, because in this case, indifference to their plight may significantly impact upon our own.

In the meantime, we can all do our little bit to help, by planting a few wild flowers in a garden or window-box in the spring.

2. Call out "Welcome Aboard!" to any new lift-user. Very funny. And witty.

3. If your in a crowded lift, here is a way to annoy people; pretend to be reading a magazine or newspaper. Then, blow a large raspberry from behind it - everyone will think you've farted. For the piece-de-resistance, wave your hand around near your behind and say "Sorry, I ate a lot of sprouts last night".

4. Set your mobile ringtone to something like "Barbie Girl" or "Crazy Frog", then arrange for a friend to ring you on your mobile when your on the lift. Get them to ring you about three times for this to work effectively. This works best when your on a long lift journey.

5. Show random people photographs of your family, going "Isn't he cute!" and "Look, look, that's my little girl!" etc. Very annoying.

6. Announce to the whole lift what you had for breakfast and/or lunch, and what your going to have for tea. Say it quite a few times, a little louder each time, as if you think they didn't get the message the first time.

7. Hum a tune in a really high pitch for as long as you can. Then, stop for a minute or two before starting again, carrying on for longer each time. "Crazy Frog" or "Barbie Girl" works best for this.

8. Hum a tune in your head. Do not hum aloud. Instead, shake and bob your head around as if you are actually listening to music. Perfect for annoying people, because sooner or later someone will ask you what you are doing.

9. As in number 3, pretend to be reading a newspaper/magazine. Then, from behind it, make a miaowing/mooing/squawking noise - which ever you think will annoy people the most. Wait about 10-15 seconds, then do it again. Keep this up for about a minute, lomger if you're feeling brave.

10. Finally, as you leave the lift for your floor, call out "Have a nice day!" in a really cheesy American accent (if you are already American, just make your accent cheesy!). It really annoys people after a while. You can also do this whenever someone else leaves the lift, just for "something to do".

Now that the boring introduction's out of the way, on to the fun part:

The Cursed Car

   In September 1955, a man named James Dean was killed by a car accident while he was driving his Porsche. Afterward, the car had some very unlucky occurrences surrounding it.

First, when the car was towed away from the accident, the engine slipped out and fell on one of the mechanics, which unfortunately shattered both of his legs.

If that wasn't bad enough, the engine was bought by a doctor, who decided to put it into a racing car that he owned. He was later killed in a race in which he had been using the car with the cursed engine.

Then, when the Porsche was repaired, the garage that it was repaired in was burned down in a fire.
The car was later put on display in Sacramento, California, but it fell off of it's mount and ended up breaking a teenager's hip.

Later, in Oregon, the trailer that the car was mounted on slipped from it's towbar and smashed right through the front of a shop.

4 years later, in 1959, the car somehow broke into 11 pieces. (and while it was on steel supports!)

The Legend of King Umberto

   Monza, Italy.

One day, King Umberto I went to dinner at a small restaurant. When the owner took his order, he noticed that the two of them looked identical. They talked to each other and found even more similarities.

• Both were born on the same day, in the same year. (March 14th, 1844)
• Both had been born in the same town.
• Both married a woman named Margherita.
• The owner of the restaurant started business on the same day that Umberto was crowned King of Italy.

On July 29th, 1900, King Umberto was told that the restaurant owner had died that day in a mysterious shooting accident. As Umberto was feeling regretful for him, a wild-looking man suddenly pushed through a crowd and assassinated Umberto.

A Friendly Game of Poker

   In 1858, Robert Fallon was shot and died while playing poker. He had apparently been killed as an act of revenge by the people playing with him. They claimed he had won the $600 (worth a lot back then) pot through cheating. With his seat now empty and none of the other players wanting to take the now unlucky $600, they found someone new to take his place, and staked him with the $600.

Later, when police arrived to investigate the killing, the new player had already turned the $600 into $2200 in winnings. The police demanded that he give the original $600 to Fallon's next of kin - and discovered that the new player was Fallon's son, who hadn't seen his father for seven years!

The Mystery Monk

   In Austria during the 19th century, a near-famous painter named Joseph Aigner attempted to commit suicide several times.

1. First attempt - Aigner tried to hang himself at the age of 18, but was interrupted by a mysterious monk.
2. Second attempt - At age 22, he tried again to hang himself, but was interrupted by the same monk.
3. Eight years later, he was sentenced to death, but was saved by yet again the same monk.

 At age 68, he was finally successful in committing suicide. His funeral ceremony was conducted by, amazingly, the same monk.

The Occurrence of Greenberry Hill

   November 26, 1911:

   Three men were hanged at Greenberry Hill in London after being convicted of murdering Sir Edmund Berry   Godfrey. The names of the killers were Robert GREEN, Henry BERRY, and Lawrence HILL.

So, next time your are dreaming your best friend could be doing you, and you couldn't even feel it!  Ok, enough  with the doing your best friend jokes.

You Can do Anything in Your Dreams

Ok i lied, you can only do anything in lucid dreams.  Lucid dreams are dreams that you know you are dreaming in.  You can take control of whatever you want in that dream.  You want to jump off a 40 story building and still survive?  You can do it.  You want to shrink do you can go inside someones body?  You got it.  You want to dream about doing your wifes best friend? You got it.  Dammit, I did it again.

Well there you go, the top 10 facts about dreams.  I just have one more thing to say, please, PLEASE, don't look these facts up.
