ARIES (March 21-April 19): Warning! The following statements may pop into your head with annoying frequency in the coming week: “Nobody sees me for who I really am.” “Life is a bitch.” “Sooner or later, everyone will find out how I’ve been faking it all these years.” “I’ll never have enough money.” “I’m afraid to change even when I know the change will be good.” Now listen closely, Aries: All those ideas are dirty lies. I don’t believe in the devil, but if I did I’d say it was he who planted them in your mind. How can you fight back? Wage a ferocious campaign of positive self-talk. Barrage yourself with uplifting affirmations like these: “I face my fears with joyous courage.” “I turn apparent setbacks into juicy opportunities.” “I answer every criticism with a vow to be my best.” “I am an amazingly gorgeous genius with unimaginable tricks up my sleeve.”

My Horroscope Today:
Working within boundaries and restrictions may really get to you today, dear Aries. Yours is an independent spirit, and your best achievements are often born of doing things your own way. Yet, like it or not, we all have to follow guidelines and rules. Do your best to follow suit and finish what needs to be done. Afterward you may find more freedom to act independently without consequences. Exercise patience and diligence as needed.

Good post by Todd Hess on ZDnet to Cooper blaming Microsoft for the Blaster worm.
You are right about no excuses, but your target is way off. It was the users who have no excuse this time. For about a month, it has been all over the news that users need to download the patch. Microsoft even sent emails. I didn’t have the problem at my home or at my workplace because I heeded those warnings and updated all machines. Not only that, but two weeks ago the Department of Homeland Security also went public urging everyone to update their PC’s. Then, people like yourself, ignored these warnings. I can’t understand why ANYONE would cancel an install of an update when it pops up and asks you to update (in the case of automatic updates).
The Human Genome???? Please, don’t make me laugh. You can’t even make that comparison. Here’s why…
-The project was started in 1953 and completed 2003. It took them 50 years. Windows became prevalent in the early 90’s.
-The human genome never changes. It has remained constant. Windows, however, has not. It is constantly changing. Compare Windows XP code with Windows 3.1 code. You won’t find many similarities.
-Over time, the human genome doesn’t become any more complicated than it was in the past. Windows, on the other hand, becomes more and more complicated with each release.
-Humans have existed for thousands and thousands of years. We still get viruses that exploit our weaknesses. The human genome has done nothing to increase our immunities.
-Medicine has existed for hundreds of years. We still can’t kill a virus. It simply has to run its course, usually about a week. A virus in Windows, on the other hand, can be killed, usually within a day of it infecting the system.
-Windows has only been around for a little more than 10 years. The human body has been around for thousands. So, you would think we would have a cure for the common cold by now.
-A virus or security breach can be prevented in Windows with patches and Antivirus signatures. It cannot yet be done in the human body.
-Even if a virus destroys data, if you have a backup, you can be back up and running in a short amount of time. If a virus destoys the human body, there is no backup. You’re dead.
-A virus for a computer is created by a malicious user who knows a little about computers. This makes it much harder to stop them than it does a human virus. However, we can stop a virus on a computer but we can’t stop a virus in our body yet.
So, please, don’t make that comparison.

This is a paper I wrote for Psychology 101 class:
The subject is my alter ego, Siddman. He is the thinking man who talks less but when he does talk, he does it well. He’s usually quiet, not the typical guy. He wraps himself in mystery. Not the most outgoing guy he does goes to parties once in a while. Siddman spent most of his childhood alone by himself until his sister was born. At that time he was looking after her. He’s was the responsible big brother and the best son anyone can ever have! He also was a bright student. Since his father was busy and out of town most of time, gradually Siddman took over chores and became more of a man of the house. Having house full of women meant he didn’t have too much exposure with many males. Being the only son of a paranoid mother, Siddman never got to do explore his Id as much as other kids did. Currently he is in the middle of Oedipal conflict and The Latency Period. Since Siddman’s family responsibilities never left him, his Ego is slowly losing the battle with Superego. He avoids unnecessary risks such as relationships, any activities that might get him into physical or other harm.
Throughout his development, Siddman has created Siddmanland, his own personal world. A place where rules are made and broken by him. Where he can be all that he wanted to be but couldn’t. Although he gets along fine with women, he has suppressed anger and issues because of his mother’s controlling nature. He’s denies himself normal social activities by considering himself better than others. He thinks he is a superhero. Being superhuman means he doesn’t have to do what everyone else does. Freud would be surprised seeing how Siddman is going along everyday pretending to be a normal person with so much fragmentation inside him. How can this be possible? This reminds me of a line from Seinfeld, “Serenity now, Insanity later”. Freud might say that this person will probably go insane during later time of his life. All the suppressed Id will fight to come out and drive him to do crazy things.
Erikson’s conflict theory applies to Siddman’s life just as well if not more than Freud’s theories. Conflict between the needs of the individual and the needs of the environment did not get resolved in this case and it is definitely leading him to negative mindset. Siddman never liked having too many people at home, but his parent’s siblings and relatives would pack the house, keeping his parents away from him. Now he hates family life and wants to be alone. Intimacy vs. Isolation is playing strong part here. Ironically, Siddman is a family man where his mom is somewhat like his wife and his sister is his child. Technically he is married and fulfilled society’s silly little events. Erikson would agree with Freud about Siddman’s dark future as well. This guy is really screwed up, that’s what he might say.
Both Freud and Erickon’s theories make perfect sense when we look at Siddman’s journey through life. Both of them are reaching the same conclusion. Freud is looking from the inside out and Erickson is looking from outside in. Different point of view but same result in my opinion. Although both of them think Siddman is a future nutcase, I think since he survived this far, he just might make it to the end and find a balanced Ego after going on a binge of Ids.

Don’t listen to anyone who tells you that you can’t do this or that. That’s nonsense. Make up your mind, you’ll never use crutches or a stick, then have a go at everything. Go to school, join in all the games you can. Go anywhere you want to. But never, never let them persuade you that things are too difficult or impossible.
- Sir Douglas Bader, a British fighter pilot who lost both legs in a flying accident, but still fought in World War Two. He was knighted for his work with the disabled, and the quote above is from his talk to a 14-year-old boy who had lost a leg in a car accident.
