Terrific treehouses
Free Spirit Spheres

Where: Qualicum Beach, Canada
Inspired by the theme of "oneness", Free Spirit's spheres were designed to fit harmoniously into a forest setting to create the perfect place for meditation, and to "commune with nature and reconnect".
According to the resort's owner, the single continuous curved wall-ceiling of the design echoes the theme of unity, as does the web of rope that connects the sphere to the trees (and is meant to reflect our connectedness to the ecosystem we live in).
Thanks to the rope-web's built-in stretchiness, the slight bouncy feeling once inside the spheres creates a rather pleasant floating sensation.

MSN. Once again, can you get rid of these ridiculous and boring dating sites. I've heard this request so many times,from other users on every topic that you cover. Nothing is ever done to rectify this problem.
Is someone in MSN on the take fron these people to allow this to continually happen? Or are you just a lazy bunch that don't do your jobs as they should be done and can't be bothered?
You are not indispensable. A lot of folk wouldn't mind your job.

What on earth is happening MSN!!?? Soon you will get NO COMMENTS made by ordinary people about the items you put on here - they will ALL be these stupid dating etc adverts. On this one for example there have been 10 - yes 10 of these adverts, getting away with murder - while you do nothing! Two other posts besides mine and they are both complaining (rightly) about these irritating annoying, useless email adverts that you are letting get away with it! Who is pocketing all the money hey? MSN you are absolutely useless - it has been going on for far too long - stop this now! Please.
