Vacations

Why do we need a vacation? Is it really necessary, or better. We need that much vacation? Instead of people simply confer the things they would rather flee from them. What could be more or less the function of the holidays. But if our lives weren't so boring, agustiante, frustrating, and stuff. Vacations would be less necessary. We would already in peace. We would be happy and we wouldn't normally have time to make up this harm. But I still think we should have a vacation time, but smaller. Enough to travel. I know we are ever to reach a point where it is viable. Someone has to think ahead to plan for the future.

Nonsense conventions of the love.

Humans have created so many nonsense conventions on top of other conventions that made a serious dating so complicated. It's generally accepted that it isn't easy to find someone perfect, but because of I said this is just the beginning. Among the complications are:
1 - Don't demonstrate that you like of the other (at least not much).
2 - Wait a time to communicate with the person, for exemple calling to him/her.
3 - Don't be friends with that person. What is called the friend zone.
4 - Today the rule is that you MUST to stay a while as "danting" ("ficantes"). Even if you are sure you want a relationship.
5 - People can't do very well in discutirções generally worsens a little religion.
And I don't remember what else.

Socrates had an alternative – change it. He was the leading light in a movement at the club which became known as “Corinthians Democracy”. Players, coaching staff and club employees would vote on all kinds of issues of interest to the collective – from which players to sign, to whether the team bus should stop to allow people to get off and relieve themselves.

New methodology against AIDS at Africa

Studies have shown that male circumcision greatly reduces the risk of HIV transmission by up to 60%. More than 1,000 men in Rwanda are doing a test with a new system that make the circumcision without pain, any need for sutures or anesthesia. The objective is to scale up use for a mass circumcision initiative across the country.

The PrePex is a device designed to compress the foreskin using two rings. The PrePex squeezing the skin in a very non-painful way the blood supply to the skin begins to go away and the skin dies. After few days, no more than one week, the men return to Medical Service to remove gauze bandage, which was placed around the tip of his penis after his foreskin was removed and his penis is clean and without blood.

The procedure has yet to receive full approval from the WHO but the European Union has already endorsed.

Despite the success of the procedure, male circumcision should be only one element of a comprehensive HIV prevention package which include mainly the promotion of safer sex practices such as condom use.

Prince turned into a frog

What to do when the perfect guy... isn't to perfect as well.

Everyone has imperfections

When we falling in love, we don't notice some imperfections that other people are clearly visible.

Deceptions

To avoid deceptions, it's very important listen to advices from friends and family.

Be realistical and don't be fooled easily.

The only single girl

The situation is: all of your friends have a boyfriend, but you it's a only single girl!

Stay in home? NOT!

Don't worry if all your friends have a boyfriend to go out and you don't. You could meet new interesting people and make new friends. Go out with them and just FUN!

The dilema "I need to someone"

Don't think that your friends will forget you. The secret it's: your friends will share the time between dating and friendships! Just keep touch, watch movies, talk on the phone and laugh a lot!

The Cupid

The boyfriends of her friends can serve as a cupid and can help you!

Sooner or later, the time for you fall in love will come.

(Gabriella Drummond)

Truth's Game

When we tell a lie often try to communicate with the body of a whole different emotion we are feeling. Learn to detect lies by observing the behavior of the speaker.

Believe me-me: the person is superarticulada, but on a specific subject begins to stutter. There's lies in play.

Scratch, bit, disguise. Touching your neck, looking down, biting his lips, itchy nose and eyes: it may indicate a lie - if the person usually doesn't do this.

Woooooow! The shorter emotion that exists is the surprise. Extending this expression is a way to gain time to prepare a lie.

You blinked: a normal person blinks 10 to 15 times per minute. When you tell a lie the frequency of blinking increases.

Made of ice. Who lies tends to''freeze'' the face and move abruptly from one expression to the feelings of others. Calculated moves and arms attached to the body are also bad signs.

The voice is gone... The voice's toner tends to get lower and paused when a person is lying.

Britain suffers as a Bystander to Europe’s Crisis - On Eve of Key Meeting, New Rifts on Euro Emerge

British is one of the countries that is in Europe and didn’t join the euro (UK keep the pound). Because of this the country becomes even more marginalized in decisions on the Continent, and also has less influence in decisions. Other presidents from the UE think that if the British doesn’t like the euro it can’t tell them what to do.

France and German have demonstrated that they will go ahead of their plans, without thinking if this is good or not to Britain, so the British is in a bad position to defend its interests in Europe. Mr. Cameron promised that he would call a referendum on any agreement that could transfer power from the British to Europe.

Inside the government from British there are partners that agree and not agree to many issues, like Europe. This makes Cameron to became in tough to Nick Clegg (his deputy prime ministry).

French officials are concerned on finding a deal to save the euro. They disagreed with the idea of making combination of two rescue funds, a temporary and one permanent. British also in this time said that wants some special protections if there were any treat changes.

WHAT CIGARETTE SMOKE DOES TO YOUR BODY

BRAIN: Causes strokes. Nicotine reaches the brain 10 seconds after you inhale

STOMACH: Raises risk for cancer and peptic ulcers.

HEART: Gives you a two-times-higher risk of heart attack than a nonsmoker. Just one to five cigarettes a day can double your heart-attack risk.

FERTILITY: Increases the odds that you won’t ovulate or conceive. Smoking while pregnant decreases the normal oxygen supply to your fetus; your risk of miscarriage is 39 percent higher. It’s also associated with stillbirths and low-birth-weight babies.
