This is the solution offered for bloggers hwo are experiencing problems with the wysywig editor on the blogger composing interface.
As a possible repeat of an episode a couple years ago, numerous bloggers who appear to be customers of Singnet, or possibly of other ISPs in the Singapore region, report that the toolbar area in the post editor is distorted or out of shape, and the buttons don't work.
What the Bleep?This Documentary Movie is absolutely mindblowing! A must-see for anyone who has ever wondered about Life The Universe and Everything, or why we do the things we do, or why we are the way we are.. This blog is supposed to blog on bloggers and other blogs (which it does), but the movie i found on movies online was so overwhelming that i would like to propagate the public awareness of it's existence.
Based on a New Age Metaphysical view of Reality, the film takes the topics of Quantum mechanics, Buddhism, Psychology, Biomechanics (that's nothing to do with robots it means the mechanics of the biological system), and Psychology to give us a more objective view on the Universe we live in but percieve little of due to our subjectivity and the influence of the dualistic perspective.Watch "What the Bleep do We Know,and wonder!
I watched the first part of this movie on the above blog and ordered it immediately! This is the nost surprisingdocumentary movie i have seen in a long long time. Perhaps the most thought provoking piece of film that i have ever watched. Definitely well worth watching to all ages, even children may nderstand a lot of what is described in the film.Quantum physics, spirituality and philosophical thought are blended to present us with an objective view of the Universe and the perception of it by we Humans who exist in it.
Whether you are of the atheist scientific perspective, or of the Spiritual/Mystickal, you will find this film inspiring and confirmative of many thoughts you may have had about this Omniverse
A master treatise about Human Conditioning. Well, Well worth watching! - Movies online gets a 5 star rating from me for the post on Wgat the Bleep do we know, and also for the great look and feel of the blog. The template was hacked and refurbished with dhtml to make a rapid loading smooth scrolling weblog that has a Very high end look and feel to it!
For those who dont know much about what Quantum Physics is.. here is a children't program called "Doctor Quantum" that explains a few principles of thought.

Avalon Star won the 2006 Web Awards for the Best Blog Award. Graphically, this blog is absolutely out of this world. I don't feel i can explain any better about avalon star than it' s owner can, therefore here is an excerpt below what the owner says about his own blog.
Avalonstar.com was bought as a present by my father on September 28, 2000 from a host that went by the name of Burlee. I got it for helping my dad with some desktop publishing work and it cost him a mere $28.50 at the time. Image maps and a picture of Shinji Ikari from Neon Genesis Evangelion adorned the first version of Avalonstar.
Since then there have been 25 versions of this site, 3 which were hosted on another domain, avalonstar.net. There were 7 that were considered official releases, but never saw the light of the internet. There were even 2 Flash versions done while I was a freshman in college, only having a collective lifespan of 3 weeks. To give you a sense of how often I redesigned (harhar), the first 9 versions all went through the cycle before I bought .net only 6 months after buying .com.
The Phoenix you know and love didn’t appear on Avalonstar until after the move to .net, logos before that consisted of a… lot of A’s and swooshes. Avalonstar has won numerous placements on some of the top design galleries, even climbing as high as to claim the best blog award at SXSW’s 2006 Web Awards.
I wish I could show off every version I’ve done, however the fates were not so kind as Avalonstar’s PSDs have suffered through two hard drive crashes. What I do have, and what I have found through drive recovery you’ll find below. Link; http://avalonstar.com
Yanin is a female blogger from Mexico (Guadalajara, to be precise),who blogs in bilingual (English and Spanish). I visited Her Y@nin's Hola a todos blog and found it enchanting! She also includes some fascinating articles I was especially joyous to encounter the where is matt videos on her blog. If only for this simple fact, is her blog now of worth to me. Travelogue like in its composition, there is an obvious air of newfound freedom in travelling, and the desire to communicate that new found freedom. She started the "Yanin's Hola a Todos" blog in 2005, although in that year she made only one post, although an interesting one about her visit to the Cirque du Soleil. From the one post in 2005, to an amazing 119 posts in 2006, the blog came to life with a kaleidoscope of travel tales seasoned with Yanin's observations about her impressions of the experiences. A family blog that remains fresh and entertaining, without the need to include swearing, sex or violence. You can let any child read her blog. Hat's off to Yanin for a blog with riveting content. Yanin also owns a second blog; Pastorelas

Dr. Steinberg; geographer on the road - well played content - dedicated blogger
Dr. Steinberg - Geographer on the Road (in search of trout)
Dr. Steinberg is the owner of a wonderful blog i found today. This is a dedicated blogger who puts original thought, opinion, flavour and content both graphically with the wonderful fotos of the natural habitat, and textually with his reflection on various matters, mainly that of the Brook trout. In Search of Brook Trout Brook trout conservation and management in the eastern U.S.A A blog reflecting on the brook trout, their natural habitat, and the human driven threats to the speciesin the ultimate decades.
When a kayaker thought he spotted an ivory-billed woodpecker in 2004, the birding community took notice. Two birders traveled to the bayou where the sighting occurred, well aware that the last confirmed sighting of an ivory-bill had taken place over sixty years ago. Both men caught a glimpse of the bird, and a team began to search the surrounding swamplands. Even after long hours of surveillance and multiple sightings, the scientists cautiously refused to disclose their rediscovery of the extinct bird until they captured it on film. At last, armed with a short video and sound clip, they published their findings in Science, triggering a frenzy of media coverage and sparking a controversy among birders and scientists who continue to disagree about whether the bird really still exists.
In Stalking the Ghost Bird, Michael K. Steinberg engages the lengthy debate over the ivory-bill's status by examining the reported sightings and extensive efforts to find the rare bird in Louisiana. Louisiana has long been at the center of the ivory-bill's story. John James Audubon wrote about the bird and its habitat during his stay in St. Francisville, and scientists James Tanner and George Lowery studied the ivory-bill in Louisiana in the 1930s and 1940s. More recently, bird experts have conducted targeted searches in Louisiana. Steinberg discusses these and other scientific expeditions, and he catalogs reported ivory-bill sightings since the 1950s, using a detailed timeline that includes both dates and specific locations. Interviews with conservation officials, ornithologists, and native Louisianans illuminate the ongoing controversy and explore why the ivory-bill, more than any other bird, arouses so much attention. Steinberg meets elderly residents of the Atchafalaya Basin who saw the ivory-bill while hunting in the 1930s and even ate the bird-which they called the "forest turkey"-during hard times. He paddles into Two O'Clock Bayou with one wildlife professor and travels to a cypress-filled wildlife refuge with the director of Louisiana's Nature Conservancy. His interviews illustrate how expert opinions vary, as well as how much local non-experts know. Steinberg also explores in detail the human impact on both the ivory-bill and its bottomland forest habitat, explains how forest-management practices in the South may pose problems for an ivory-bill recovery, and outlines where future searches for the bird should take place. In this absorbing study, Steinberg turns his lifelong interest in the majestic ivory-billed woodpecker into a tale that encapsulates both the mystery and intrigue surrounding the legendary bird and our fascination with it. Michael K. Steinberg, an assistant professor in the New College and Department of Geography at the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa, is the coeditor of Dangerous Harvest: Drug Plants and the Transformation of Indigenous Landscapes and Cultural and Physical Expositions: Geographic Studies in the Southern United States and Latin America. He has also published articles on various conservation-related topics in Conservation Biology, Geographical Review, and Economic Botany.
