Audiences experience 'Avatar' blues
James Cameron’s completely immersive spectacle “Avatar” may have been a little too real for some fans who say they have experienced depression and suicidal thoughts after seeing the film because they long to enjoy the beauty of the alien world Pandora. On the fan forum site “Avatar Forums,” a topic thread entitled “Ways to cope with the depression of the dream of Pandora being intangible,” has received more than 1,000 posts from people experiencing depression and fans trying to help them cope. The topic became so popular last month that forum administrator Philippe Baghdassarian had to create a second thread so people could continue to post their confused feelings about the movie. More…
VIENNA (Reuters Life!) - A 33-year-old furry photographer is winning fans on social networking website Facebook for pictures of her daily life as an orangutan in a Vienna zoo.
Orangutan Nonja's photos, taken with a camera that dispenses raisins as she snaps, have won over 500 fans on Facebook since the zoo launched an online photo album on Tuesday.
Although the slightly blurry images of Nonja's climbing rope, food and companion's shaggy red-brown fur have won lots of admiring comments from fans, the photographer herself is not so interested.
"Of course the apes don't care about the pictures, they are just an accidental side product," zoo spokesman Gerhard Kasbauer told Reuters. "They just know that when they press the button, a raisin pops out."
The Vienna Tiergarten set up the project to help keep Nonja and her three hairy ape friends entertained in their enclosure. The album is online at: here

Pavlova (is this because it makes you drool like Pavlov's dog???)
Preparation time :20 minutes
Cooking time: 1 hour 10 minutes
Serves eight to ten
For the meringue case -
8 egg whites -
1 2/3 cups caster sugar (granulated sugar//fine/super fine sugar) -
2 teaspoons vanilla extract -
2 teaspoons brown vinegar -
2 pinches of salt -
2 teaspoons sifted cornflour (corn starch)
For the filling -
1 1/4 cups cream, firmly whipped -
1 punnet strawberries, hulled and halved -
2 bananas, peeled and sliced -
1/3 cup passionfruit pulp
How to cook a Pavlova: 1 Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Line an oven tray with baking paper and mark a 23 cm (10inch) circle as a guide for spreading the mixture. 2 Beat the egg whites on high speed in a large clean bowl with clean electric beaters until soft peaks form. Gradually add the caster sugar, beating continuously until the mixture is firm and glossy and all sugar has dissolved. Beat in the vanilla extract, then the vinegar and salt, and fold in the cornflour. 3 Using a spatula, spread the meringue mixture over the marked circle. Straighten the sides and make them higher than the centre. Bake for 10 minutes in the centre of the oven, then reduce the temperature to 120°C (250°F) and bake for a further hour. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely. 4 Just before serving, top the pavlova with whipped cream. Decorate with the strawberries and bananas, and drizzle with the passionfruit pulp. Alternatively, decorate the pavlova with 3 peeled and sliced kiwi fruit, arranged in rounds and drizzled with passionfruit pulp.

Strawberry "shortcake" (with a twist!)
This really doesn't have a name, but a friend made this at a bbq one time. Now it's a favorite of family and friends. Basically, this is strawberry shortcake, but instead of shortcake, you use Pillsbury Grand Biscuits. For those that don't know, Grand biscuits are the really BIG biscuits. You dip the top of the unbaked biscuit in melted butter, then dip the biscuit in sugar, bake biscuit as directed on packaging. While baking, prepare strawberries. Some people like just strawberries on there biscuit. I prefer them a little mashed so you can get the juices. When the biscuits are done, split open, top bottom half with strawberry mixture, put top half of biscuit on top of strawberries followed by whipped cream. Yummmmm Easy for kids to help make this!
Frozen Strawberry Loaf
Line a loaf pan with wax paper or foil
In a large reseal able plastic bag, mush up about 10 oreo cookies with a little melted butter. Press into the bottom on the lined loaf pan.
In a bowl mush about 2-3 cups of strawberries. Add a small can of sweetened condensed milk and about a half container of cool whip.
I don’t have exact measurements, sorry. Poor this mixture into the loaf pan on top of the oreo crust. Freeze for at least 6-8 hours. Overnight is best. Invert loaf pan onto a plate and ‘frost’ with the remaining cool whip, decorate with sliced berries. Slice and serve.
