1 kyat Myanmar 1852
(07 Oct 2008)
I don't know why exactly but I have to show you all my new acquisition It's 1 kyat (rupee?), silver coin from Myanmar (or Burma), minted in 1852. On the averse we can see peacock, in pride, displaying plumage.
On the reverse burmese legend (value and date within wreath).
In my opinion very interesting and beautiful coin

Myanmar (Burma) OK to visit at the moment?
(09 Sep 2008)
Hi, I'm new to the forum but not new to travelling and in S.E. Asia have visited: Thailand, Cambodia, Malaysia, Singapore and Vietnam.

I had planned to visit Mynamar as my next trip though I did get side...

Characteristics of a survivor
(10 Sep 2008)

By John Blake, CNN
(Sept. 8) -- Deborah Scaling Kiley still can't break free from that night.
She can't shake the screams, the image of the frothing water turning red, and the sounds of sharks attacking the man who had just been sitting next to her.
She still can't forget blurting out the Lord's Prayer to block out the cries of the man dying in front of her.

Quote: : What I Will Miss About President Bush
As the world knows, America will elect a new president on Tuesday. Barring unforeseen electoral circumstances, this is George W. Bushs last Sunday to hold the presidential stage to himself. The Op-Ed editors asked six writers to reflect on what they have most admired about him.

When I was young I struggled long and hard and for years
trying to understand Christianity, God, Jesus, Satan, Genesis, etc.
I tried to come to grips with the basic doctrines, the core beliefs
and ideas, i.e. the real essence of Christianity. I tried to
understand
the various teachings and the contradictions in Old versus New
Testament.
What was the truth? Why? What did it all mean?

An article on surviving
(08 Sep 2008)
I read this and thought of every one of you guys.
I believe that each and every one of us have all of these traits, and more, which is what results in us being able to survive all we endure - and still, somehow be able to be a warrior mom.
Hugs to everyone.

Book looks at how miraculous survivors survived

Deborah Scaling Kiley still can't break free from that night.

She still can't forget blurting out the Lord's Prayer to block out the cries of the man dying in front of her.
