E agora... Qual é o Plano?
Quando se planeia algo, o objectivo deve ser ter-se sucesso com o plano que se estabeleceu... E se isso não for conseguido? Deve fazer-se um plano alternativo. Melhor ainda, deve por-se em marcha o plano alternativo que já estava feito... Ou seja nunca se faz um plano só. Há que fazer pelo menos dois de cada vez. Se um não funcionar, usa-se o outro. 29 de setembro de 2010
Robert Blake the eternal "Baretta" ...
Robert Blake (b. September 18, 1933) is an Italian-American actor who starred in the film In Cold Blood and the U.S. television series Baretta. In 2005, he was tried and acquitted for the 2001 murder of his wife, but on November 18, 2005, Blake was found liable in a California civil court for her wrongful death. Blake was born Michael James Vincenzo Gubitosi in Nutley, New Jersey, to Giacomo (James) Gubitosi (1906-1956) and Elizabeth Cafone (b. 1910). His brother was James Gubitosi (1930-1995) and his sister was Giovanna Gubitosi (1932-1985).
His father was born in Italy, arriving in the United States in 1907, and his mother was an Italian-American born in New Jersey. They married in 1929. In 1930, James worked as a die setter for a can manufacturer. Eventually, James and Elizabeth began a song-and-dance act. In 1936, the three children began performing, billed as "The Three Little Hillbillies." They moved to Los Angeles, California, in 1938, where the children began working as movie extras.

The King ... Black and White, and in Colour...
Elvis Aaron Presley[1] (East Tupelo, 8 de janeiro de 1935 — Memphis, 16 de agosto de 1977) foi um famoso músico e ator, nascido nos Estados Unidos da América, sendo mundialmente denominado O Rei do Rock, também conhecido pela alcunha de Elvis The Pelvis, apelido pelo qual ficou conhecido na década de 50 por sua maneira extravagante e ousada de dançar. Uma de suas maiores virtudes era a sua voz, devido ao seu alcance vocal, que atingia, segundo especialistas, notas musicais de difícil alcance para um cantor popular. A crítica especializada reconhece seu expressivo ganho, em extensão, com a maturidade; além de virtuoso senso rítmico, força interpretativa e um timbre de voz que o destacava entre os cantores populares, sendo avaliado como um dos maiores e por outros como o melhor cantor popular do século 20.[2]

Ainda as tentativas de aqui fazer Publicidade...
As tentativas de fazer publicidade neste meu (e em segundo lugar "vosso") Blog da Janela continuam a tentar aliciar-me... Confesso que quando por aqui começei a escrevinhar, nunca me passou pela cabeça que me pediriam para aqui divulgar o que quer que fosse... Agora que tenho resistido a estas tentativas de sedução, porque não necessito (à data de hoje) e por principio, dizem-me que me estou a "fazer caro" e que não tarda, me dobro (não por estas palavras claro está...)... Vamos a ver. Por enquanto a Publicidade aqui sou eu que faço. Como esta, da bebida que tem o condão de branquear moedas escuras ao fim de umas horas.The Beatles -Let It Be
When I find myself in times of trouble, mother Mary comes to me, speaking words of wisdom, let it be. And in my hour of darkness she is standing right in front of me, speaking words of wisdom, let it be. Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be. Whisper words of wisdom, let it be. And when the broken hearted people living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be. For though they may be parted there is still a chance that they will see, there will be an answer. let it be. Let it be, let it be, ..... And when the night is cloudy, there is still a light, that shines on me, shine until tomorrow, let it be. I wake up to the sound of music, mother Mary comes to me, speaking words of wisdom, let it be. Let it be, let it be, ..... (Paul Mcartney - The Beatles)

"Why Doc's don't like XANAX (some of us)"
This is in response to JW's question below about the "rules" docs use about prescribing Xanax/alprazolam. Not all docs feel this way, but here's how I think about it. Of course, I am not suggesting that, if you are taking this anti-anxiety drug, you should stop it. I'M NOT. Talk to your doctor if you have concerns.The half-life for Xanax is short... on the order of 6-20 hours. Halcion is the only similar sedative that has a shorter half-life (and that one has even more problems). Thus, it doesn't stick around long. It is also quite lipophilic, meaning that it quickly gets into the brain. So, it has a quick on, quick off way of working. Sounds great, right?The quicker a drug works, especially one which makes you feel good in some way, the more addicting it is, as the cause (taking it) and effect (feeling it) are close in time, making it very reinforcing. This is fine if you just take it on those rare anxious moments where you need something to get through it. However, since it works so quickly, many folks start taking it more and more often, until it gets to the point that they are taking it daily. Then they start taking it as soon as they feel it wear off. Before you know it, you are taking it 3-4 times per day. Now, that's not the big problem.The big problem is all because of your brain's laziness. See, your brain makes it's own natural Xanax-like substance, called GABA. GABA works by inhibiting the brain's natural tendency to speed up. It's like a brake pedal, where the accelerator is stuck in the pedal-to-the-metal mode. GABA keeps your brain from over-working. Xanax (and other sedatives, and alcohol) works by acting like GABA in the brain (sort of). If you start taking it daily, your brain starts thinking "I guess I don't need to make so much GABA because this Xanax stuff is here, so I'll only make 20% of what I usually make." It takes a week or more for your brain to stop making the GABA (which is why just a few days on Xanax won't lead to much trouble), and a week or more for it to start making it again when you stop taking the Xanax.Here's where the trouble begins. If Xanax wears off in just a few hours, but it takes a week for your brain's natural Xanax to kick back in, what happens in the interim? Withdrawal. What does that feel like? It feels like a panic attack, but worse. High blood pressure, rapid heart beat, tremors, confusion, delirium, hallucinations, seizures. What do folks do when they feel a panic attack coming on? Take another Xanax.As a hospital-based physician, I see lots of folks, often older, who wind up with severe withdrawal problems from Xanax. It's usually because they run out of the drug, decide to cut back or stop taking it, or something else happens (eg, stroke, get sick) and they forget to take it. Or they don't tell their surgeon they are on it, and 2 days after their hip surgery I get called because they are hallucinating.Some prescribers think it is a good antidepressant (it's not). Or that, because of the short half-life, it's not as addictive (it is).So, here are my rules of thumb about Xanax:
Avoid it.
Keep the doses small.
Do not use in older folks or forgetful folks (more likely to forget it, thus more likely to have problems).
Do not use in anyone with a history of alcoholism or addiction (yes, that means you have to ask).
Tell folks to avoid from daily use.
If they are on it, warn them that stopping it suddenly, even for a day or two, can result in confusion, hallucinations, seizures, and even death.

Watch Out Alprazolam (xanax) users!
Alprazolam (trade name Xanax, among others) is a potent short-acting drug of the benzodiazepine class. It is primarily used to treat moderate to severe anxiety disorders (e.g., social anxiety disorder) and panic attacks, and is used as an adjunctive treatment for anxiety associated with moderate depression. It is available in an instant release and an extended-release (Xanax XR) preparation, both of which are available under several generic names. Alprazolam possesses anxiolytic, sedative, hypnotic, anticonvulsant, and muscle relaxant properties.[3]
Alprazolam has a fast onset of symptom relief (within the first week). It is the most commonly misused benzodiazepine; however, the majority of prescribed users do not develop a substance use disorder.[4][5] Tolerance to the therapeutic effects of alprazolam is controversial with one view being that alprazolam is ineffective with long term use[6] and the other view being that tolerance to the therapeutic effects does not occur.[7] A physical dependence commonly occurs as a result of alprazolam treatment, typified by a withdrawal and rebound symptoms necessitating a gradual reduction in dosage to minimize withdrawal effects when discontinuing.[4] Withdrawal symptoms similar in character to those noted with sedative-hypnotics and alcohol have occurred following discontinuance of benzodiazepines, including alprazolam. The symptoms can range from mild dysphoria and insomnia to a major syndrome that may include anxiety, abdominal pain, muscle cramps, vomiting, depression, sweating, tremors and in rare cases suicidal ideation or suicide itself.[8]

Procurar no Blog.
Muita gente, não se apercebe que quando está num Blog (do tipo Blogger), como este da Janela, pode procurar informação anteriormente publicada por assunto. Basta escrever no topo do lado esquerdo do monitor entre estes dois simbolos, e depois clickar na "Lupa". Experimente por exemplo escrever "TV" e veja os artigos que aparecem...
TV
Televisão (do grego tele - distante e do latim visione - visão) é um sistema eletrônico de recepção de imagens e som de forma instantânea. Funciona a partir da análise e conversão da luz e do som em ondas eletromagnéticas e de sua reconversão em um aparelho - o televisor - que recebe também o mesmo nome do sistema ou pode ainda ser chamado de aparelho de televisão . O televisor ou aparelho de televisão capta as ondas eletromagnéticas e através de seus componentes internos as converte novamente em imagem e som.
Parabens tambem ao nosso Amigo Antonio Sabugueiro!
Também no mesmo Torneio Tennis Europe (under 14) em Mallorca, António Sabugueiro (Campeão Nacional de Singulares de Sub 12 em 2009 e Campeao Nacional de Pares de Sub 14 em 2010) ganhou na segunda ronda ao nº1 Espanhol. Grande vitória António. Aqui na foto com o seu Treinador, noutra ocasião, João Carlos Santos.25 de setembro de 2010

Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here
So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from Hell,
blue skies from pain.
Can you tell a green field
from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?
How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have we found?
The same old fears.
Wish you were here.

Loucura - Tema a desenvolver...
Essa mania de que "Livre-Arbitrio" separa Sanidade e Insanidade e de que os "Loucos" não têm Auto Critica tem de acabar. Este é um tema para desenvolver (se houver tempo para isso...).
