Zome
The term zome is used in several related senses. A zome in the original sense is a building using unusual geometries (different from the standard house or other building which is essentially one or a series of rectangular boxes). The word "zome" was coined in 1968 by Steve Durkee, now known as Nooruddeen Durkee, combining the words dome and zonohedron. One of the earliest models ended up as a large climbing structure at the Lama Foundation. In the second sense as a learning tool or toy, "Zometool" refers to a model-construction toy manufactured by Zometool, Inc.. It is sometimes thought of as the ultimate form of the "ball and stick" construction toy, in form. It appeals to adults as well as children, and is educational on many levels (not the least, geometry). Finally, the term "Zome system" refers to the mathematics underlying the physical construction system.
Both the building and the learning tool are the brainchildren of inventor/designer Steve Baer, his wife, Holly, and associates.

Heart Has A Mind Of Its Own
by: Sammieyou don't get to tell your heart how to feel
it does what it wants when it wants to
all that you can do is pray that it lands in the hands of somebody true!
and you don't get to tell your heart where to stay
no it will not obey cause it knows the truth
let's not confuse it! you try to prove it wrong
but the heart has a mind of its own
chorus:
you can't run from the place that you belong
cause if you run, you'll be feeling so alone
before you know, you'll be picking up the phone
cause the heart has a mind of its own!
can't fight that burning in your chest
you can't fight, feeling such a mess
your hear decides, but it's you that second guest
cause the heart has a mind of its own!
you don't get to fall at the perfect time
for someone love is ending, for someone else is just beginning
someone is gotta cry, someone needs to know why
but the heart tells no lies!
and you don't get to tell your heart when it heels
when it breaks like rock through shatter glass
all you can ask is that the pain moves fast
one day this too, shall last!
by know i hope you know, it has a mind of its own!
chorus:
you can't run from the place that you belong
cause if you run, you'll be feeling so alone
before you know, you'll be picking up the phone
cause the heart has a mind of its own!
can't fight that burning in your chest
you can't fight, feeling such a mess
your hear decides, but it's you that second guest
cause the heart has a mind of its own!
it's so real, can't you see it?
is the heart that really means it
and the heart won't let you lie,
it won't let love be defeated!
sometimes is inconvenient,
but the real truth is you need it
cause the mind will leave you lonely
chorus:
you can't run from the place that you belong
cause if you run, you'll be feeling so alone
before you know, you'll be picking up the phone
cause the heart has a mind of its own!
can't fight that burning in your chest
you can't fight, feeling such a mess
your hear decides, but it's you that second guest
