Internet Obscenity and Pornography
This essay is about obscenity and pornography on the web. I will be discussing my views and opinions about this subject. If it hasn't already obscenity and pornography being openly displayed on the web will affect you. Maybe you have a younger brother or sister, or a child, or for some of us a child in the future. Whatever the case may be, YOU WILL BE AFFECTED! How would you feel if you came home from a hard day of work only to find your five-year-old child on the web looking graphically nude pictures? I am sure it would be a shock and quite a scare for you as it would be for me. How do you explain to you child of five what that is or what the people in the photographs are doing? Do you lie or do you actually explain to him or her about sex and pornography? I know that these are a lot of difficult questions, but if something is not done about this, you could be facing the very real truth of having to find answers to these questions. Not only will you have to explain what it is, what happens when they start asking more questions than you are willing to answer? I never realized how bad this was until I was surfing the web and about three times while I was on looking around from site to site, windows came up within my main page with four to six different porn sites you could go to. That was when I realized this is a growing problem. I don't think that you should have to have your children or whoever sit on you lap and you guide them through the web to make sure they only go to "safe sites." Children should have the freedom to explore without having their minds corrupted at a young age. Obscenity on the other hand is another story. This could or could not affect all children at a young age. That depends on the competency of that child. To get obscenity from the web you must first be able to read and second, be able to sound out the words. Not all children can do that. But if they can or could, what happens when your child gets angry with you and calls you a bitch? I am sure that would not make anyone too happy. This category runs over into another though. If you frequently say these words at home, a child may recognize the words in print more easy. So the best bet would be not to use them at home either. In conclusion I feel that children have to be monitored all the time when they are using the web, or you could be forced to answers questions that you aren't ready to answer. But, a even better solution would be to regulate what comes across the web and how much of it. Parents need to start using the technology that is out there to block these sites from their computer.

SEASONS OF KASHMIR
The Changing Seasons of Kashmir
A place famous for lakes and mountains set like a jeweled crown on the map. Kashmir is a many-faceted diamond changing its character with the four seasons, always extravagantly beautiful.
SPRING : March - May (Temp Min3.5oC- Max24.6oC)
It comes alive in spring when nature bedecks the valley with blossom after blossom: almond, cherry, apple, peach, pears, pansies, narcissi, daises and many more. Throughout the valley thousands of fruits and flowers burst into bloom exuding and alluring fragrance.
SUMMER : June - August (Min 14.4 Max30.8)
In the summer the melting snow of the mountains fill the brooks and rivers with gushing water. Only a touch of white peaks on the top most crags tells the tale of winter past. Characteristic of summer are the floating gardens on the Dal lake, trout fishing, trekking in the Himalayas, golf, water sports and bird watching etc.
AUTUMN : September - November (Min.2.0 Max.28.3)
Summer gives way to autumn. Nature packs up for the season with wild abandon leaving a trail of gold mellowed leaves. Red fire like glowing Chinar leaves start falling. One of the famous highlights of autumn are the saffron fields of Pampore, for which Kashmir is very famous.
WINTER : December - February (Min -5.0 Max 8.8)
By December the winter season starts to fall and covers the valley to hibernate. But at the same time skiing at Gulmarg and the Himalayan chakore & Wild duck shooting season starts which tourists have been enjoying since the British Raj. Also if by any chance the Dal-lake freezes then one can enjoy the ice skating too. From 1987 heli-skiing has also started in certain new areas.
