Whether you love it, hate it, or laugh at it, here it is. Anime: Tenchi Muyo (American Version) Song: I'm a Pioneer Artist: Sharyn Scott Lyrics: Did you know, I am a pioneer I'm out on a secret mission I travel the galaxy and far beyond Can't you see that I am a pioneer Unlocking the greatest mysteries My key is a fearless heart so pure and strong People laugh when you are a pioneer Not walking the straight and narrow They tell you the way they are, they swear you're wrong You can't be a hero hiding underneath your bed Got to live the life that you create inside your head So I opened the window, caught the wind one night Now I sail with the birds in their flight If you're tired of everything, come hitch a ride with me You'll cry out with joy when you realize you're free It's a trip like no other for your heart and mine leaving all but the future far behind Some will say, You're safer here Nevermind them, be a pioneer Can't you see that you see that you are a pioneer Not one of the endless talkers Who tell you the same old rules you've heard before I can tell that you are a pioneer You want to be facing danger Not having to hide your big dreams anymore You are a pioneer, the same as me! You can't be a hero hiding underneath your bed So we'll live the life we've created in our heads We'll wake up everymorning in a whole new place On a road reaching out into space Some will say "We are safer here." Nevermind them, we are pioneers Hand in hand we'll journey as pioneers ...

“[Jaume] Sanllorente’s story, reminiscent of Greg Mortenson’s Three Cups of Tea, is remarkable and uplifting.”—Booklist
In 2003, Jaume Sanllorente was a young journalist leading an active and exciting life in Barcelona—no more idealistic than any other young professional. Then a travel agent convinced him to spend his vacation in India. Amazed by what he saw in the land of sacred cows and shocking poverty, Jaume was transformed.
That experience lead him to reconsider the world he lived in and caused him to think that he might do something to make it a little better. He devoted himself to helping a small orphanage in Bombay, one that was about to close its doors and send its forty children back to the streets (and the brothels) from which they had been rescued. Jaume seized the moment, determined not to let that happen. As a consequence, he changed his life, and much more as well.
In Bombay Smiles, Jaume Sanllorente gives us an insightful and loving vision of a country of great contrasts. He reveals that the secret of his own happiness is in seeking happiness for others.
Bombay Smiles is a story of loneliness, ransoms, dangers, injustices, threats of death, and acts of courage, which give an example to follow in spite of the adversities one might meet. It is a lesson of wise love, surrender, sacrifice, and hope, which invites us to start on the path toward a better world.
Jaume Sanllorente was born in 1976 in Barcelona, Spain. His nonprofit organization, Bombay Smiles, provides schools, homes, and health care to thousands of children in India.

What To Eat While On Your Next Camping Trip
What To Eat While Camping
One of the most fun times you can have while camping is cooking for the group. Cooking is generally done over a fire or on a grill. You should bring foods that are easy to store and keep fresh. You should include snacks for the trail as well as foods to put in order for each meal. Perishable items should be stored in a refrigerator or in a cooler on ice.
Breakfast
Start your day off right with a morning meal that will get you ready for a day of hiking or exploring. Slice up some mushrooms, onions, bacon and potatoes and grill in a skillet over the fire until done. Mix eggs with a petite milk and pour over the compound to heat until the eggs are fully cooked. This is a great skillet meal that is easy to put in order and clean up. other easy meal to put in order is a morning meal taco. Cook some eggs and place inside a tortilla with cheese and picante sauce. If you feel a bit more adventurous, try a morning meal pizza using pre made crusts and eggs. You can cook the eggs any way you like them and add bacon, potatoes or sausage. Heat the pizza crusts over the fire and top with your egg compound and cheese.
Lunch
Keep lunch uncomplicated and easy to put in order and clean up so you get back to your adventures. Sandwiches are a great lunchtime treat using easy to store and put in order foods. Sliced lunch meats with vegetables on bread make the excellent pick me up. For a hot side dish to accompany the sandwiches take some freezing French fries, chili and cheese sauce; combine them in foil, wrapping it tightly. Throw the holder on the fire and cook until the fries are cooked through and then enjoy your gooey chili cheese fries.
Dinner
Dinner consisting of a hearty stew is a great option. Using canned vegetables, mix equal parts of your favorites in a heavy pot. These can include corn, peas and beans. Also add a can of chunk chicken and pre made barbecue pork. Add two cans of tomato sauce and two cans of chopped tomatoes and simmer gradually over an open fire for a filling stew. If you went fishing and were lucky enough to make a catch, fry it for dinner. After cleaning the fish, cut it into fillets. combine one can of beer with two eggs until wholly mixed. To that add twelve ounces of flour, two teaspoons of baking powder and salt and pepper to taste. Dip the fish in cornstarch then the batter. Place it in hot oil and fry until the batter puffs. This is a great way to enjoy the efforts put forth after a day of fishing.
Trail Snacks
No camping trip is faultless without snacks to put in order and bring while you are out on a nature hike. Walking and hiking is hard work so you should bring some foods that will help boost your energy. Popcorn popped over an open flame is a fun way to put in order the next day's snack. Trail mix is a former choice and is petite to only your imagination. Use a compound of hearty ingredients with sweets. combine granola, raisins, chocolate chips, M & M's, cereal, dried fruits and nuts. Use anything combinations you like.
My favorite camping meals though, are made with pudgie pie makers (also called pie irons). They are made of cast iron or metal and have long handles. Our family uses pudgie pie makers to meal tasty treats for lunch and dinner. Bread is the staple ingredient in manufacture a pudgie pie. My favorite is grilled cheese. To make one, butter two slices of bread. Place the buttered side down in the pudgie pie maker. This will forestall the bread from sticking. Place a cheese slice on top of each slice of bread. Close the pudgie pie maker. Place in the coals of your campfire. It will only take a few minutes for the pie to cook. Turn the pie maker after about a minute. Watch your sandwich closely. Depending on how hot your fire is, the sandwich will cook very quickly. Ham and tomato are also very good additions to your cheese sandwich.
Pizza pudgie pies are favorite with our family too. Again, butter two slices of bread and place the buttered side down in the pudgie pie maker. Add your favorite pizza toppings (ours are canned pizza sauce, pepperoni, and mozzarella cheese). Close the pudgie pie maker and place in the coals of your campfire to cook. Be rigorous when removing pudgie pies from your pudgie pie maker. Both the pudgie pie maker and your sandwich will be very hot.
Another favorite type of pudgie pie that our family enjoys are dessert ones. Butter your two slices of bread and place the buttered sides down in the pudgie pie maker. Spoon in some of your favorite ready pie filling (cherry or apple are our favorites). Cook in the fire and enjoy.
And of course, no camping trip is faultless without manufacture smores. They're also very easy to make. Start by roasting a marshmallow over your fire. Once your marshmallow is warm and gooey, stick it on top of a graham cracker and a piece of a chocolate bar, and then top with other graham cracker.
Cooking while camping can indeed be a lot of fun. preparing foods should be easy and need petite clean up and use few pots and pans. At the end of the night, though, no camping trip would be faultless without toasting marshmallows. Cut some branches and skewer large marshmallows. Hold each stick over the flame until brown and toasty. It makes a great, gooey dessert and an ideal end to your day.
