Californication

I don't watch TV to much,but Californication is one of the shows I really like, especially Tom Hanks who plays Hank Moody who plays a writer who juggle his career, his daughter Becca and his ex-girlfriend Karen.He has a gift of the gab, especially for life seducing but his private life is a mess.He has a body Charlie Runkel who is talented agent but he is affected with Hank's sexual appetite.I have watched only two series of the episodes and it was a fun. There is probably three or four more series of the show right now. When I find more time to watch TV, I will definitely watch it.

Traveling

In these days traveling by air plane is becoming a nightmare.Just imagine you want to travel to Chicago.You have to get to the airport two or three hours earlier because all those safety precautions.I have nothing against safety but it is getting very annoying when you have to spend so much time to get on the plane.Flying was so easy before September 11, but after that I think twice , before I buy a ticket.If I have to go, I will go but the otherwise no.Now it is getting even more interesting with new scanning procedures.I think the lines are gonna be more longer and passengers will have to come to the airport earlier then it was before.By the way that scanning is danger because of the radioactivity and on the other hand it is against people rights.Some people will agree and some not.I have red on Internet articles about scanning the buses and subways after certain time of period.I don't now if I should laugh or take it seriously.Is this all about our safety or it is about something else? How far the government will go to take control over their own people?

Landlords

I live in private house for more then ten years and this is my second landlord to whom I pay my rent.He is the owner for more then 6 years. It is very bad times for everebody right now. I came today to pay my rent and my owner told me he wants to add another hundred dollars to my rent because everything is going up.It is truth but I am working only two days right now and it is not affordable for me to pay now more. I have bad times now, there is not much work at these days.The other thing is he didn't heat my apartment very well for last three years and I had another argument with him this year about the heat.Now my heat is very good but now he wants more money.In my opinion he can't move me out at this time of winter because I pay the rent.I have told him, I can't and I will look for another apartment but I am not gonna pay you more money.I just can't believe it he has tried to raise my rent at this time.Who is raising rent at winter?

SICKO

I have found the movie SICKO written by Michael Moore very interesting. The whole documentary movie is about the Health care in the United States. It shows that it is provided by high-profit oriented maintenance organization(HMOs).With 300 million populations in USA there is about 50 million people without an insurance, and even people with the insurance are worry if their insurance is covering them when they will get very sick. There are very bad practices by the insurance companies. The company agents who are helping to fill the applications for health insurance are not honest with their responses to the customers, and they are forced by companies to hold some information or even lie. People are worry after they will get sick not to be dropped by insurance companies, because insurance companies are able to use dirty practices to get rid of those people to save the companies money. The movie reveals that the doctors who have least claims are getting the big bonuses compare to the doctors with high numbers of claims. How is it possible that the guy who cut his two fingers has to decide which of his fingers he wants to safe because he has no enough money to save both of them? Why young women with cancer and small child can’t get the help because the insurance would not take her? Why three 9/11 clean-up volunteers, who developed respiratory problems can’t get help? It also shows that there is still racism in our health system. Author also examines why Nixon promoted HMOs in 1971, and why the Clintons' reform effort failed in the 1990s. It shows how big influence lobbing companies have in our political system. Author compares our health care to free, universal care in Canada, the United Kingdom and France. Moore contrasts U.S. media reports on Canadian care with the experiences of Canadians in hospitals and clinics there. He interviews patients and doctors in the U.K. about cost, quality, and salaries. It is unbelievable that young women with the cancer comes to Canada and gets help which she can’t get in USA or can’t afford it. Why is that that US citizens are forced to look for help outside of the country? How is it possible that Cuba is able to provide free health care for our citizens and US the country with the biggest economy of the world not? After watching this movie I think everybody has to answer all this questions in his mind, and it's hard to disagree with Moore argument that health care in the United States is broken and needs to be fixed.

Vegetarianism

When I hear this world vegetarianism ,I think of people whose diet is more healthier than diet of the rest of people who eat an animals. Vegetarians don't eat or use animal products. There is more forms of vegetarianism. Most common form is lacto-ovo-vegetarianism.In general people of these form of vegetarianism don't eat meat and sometimes eat the fish. They also eat eggs and dairy produce.There are also more extreme and restricted diets.There are vegetarian follovers who exclude all animal products but they eat anuything from the plant world. there are also follovers who eat only cereals or follovers who eat raw food.Personally I know some people who are vegetarians. Some of them are happy with they diet but some of them have change it back to meat diet. I was thinking of changing my diet to vegetarian but I have decided not to because I think that meat is better source of essential elements for healthy growth than plants and that plants don't have all nutritiens which the body needs.So I prefer combination of both.

Black Friday

Black Friday is known as a day of great discounts on retailers merchandise. Everybody is trying to get to the stores as soon as possible not to miss opportunity to get great deal on his items.I have never been shopping on Black Friday, so I went this year to see how it look like to stay in those long lines.I didn't go crazy and I didn't stay in line from 5 AM, instead I came there around 11AM. The line wasn't long so I have stayed there maybe for 5 minuets. I was trying to get a new phone for my brother, and after paying for the phone I had to wait very long two hours to get the Sim card activated. I was frustrated and very disappointed. I think that I will not go for shopping on Black Friday for very long time. When I was leaving the store and I was a witness of little nasty scene at the entrance. There was no line at that time and one guy was trying to make shortcut to the entrance sneaking in through opening between the small fences in his way. The guy standing at the entrance came to him and pushed him back but the guy who was pushed refuse to back up and pushed him back.The police officers standing next to them were watching for maybe 30 sec and than they decided to make a move to stop it. One thing was weird why the guy at the entrance who was suppose to watch the customers to enter the store didn't have some kind of security sign on him and why hi was so ruthless to pushing the other guy out when even the line didn't exist at the time.The cops have warned the customer and tell him to live not to get arrested, but didn't say nothing to the guy who started.

Hostel

One of the most disgusting movies I have ever seen is Hostel movie by director Eli Roth. The film is about three young men and their horrific backpacking trip through Europe. A particular hostel in an out-of-the-way Slovakian town stocked with Eastern European women as desperate as they are gorgeous. The young men quickly find themselves trapped in an increasingly sinister situation that they will discover is as wide and as deep as the darkest, sickest recess of human nature itself. Watching this movie was very unpleasant and there were the moments I had to close my eyes. I often had to resist the reflexive temptation to leave. Honestly, this movie has nothing to do with pleasure to watch. The movie is full of blood and torture scenes. I found this movie the sickest I have ever seen.

TSA scanning at the airports

We know that the air travel is essential part of our daily lives, and that millions of people are traveling every day.We had tighten security at the airports to the highest levels to prevent any terrorist attacks. I agree we need to have some kind of protection but we can't violate the human rights. The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures. TSA recently practising invasive and humiliating full-body scans that result in the display of a graphic image of each passenger's naked body to be scrutinized by a TSA agent.We have to be aware that full-body scans produced by backscatter X-ray machines create radiation potentially harmful to frequent fliers. The air travel is already not that comfortable like it use to be and I believe government is going to far, and some politicians are gonna profit from selling these screening machines to the airports.

Eiffel Tower - La dame de fer

When someone whisper the word Paris , first thing that clicks in my mind is Eiffel Tower. The tower has become the most prominent symbol of both Paris and France.Tower has a nickname La dame de fer (The iron lady), and it is the tallest building in Paris, and the most-visited paid monument in the world. The tower has three levels for visitors.The third and highest level is accessible only by elevator.For repairs, the top of the Eiffel Tower is closed from November 3 to 16 during the day and evening.So when you are planning a trip to Paris and you are excited to see the city from the top of the tower, better check on Internet if there is some restrictions.I have always wanted to go to see Paris, but I couldn't. Paris has a great history and it is one of the most beautiful cities in Europe and Eiffel tower is a global icon of France and one of the most recognizable structures in the world.

ATP tournaments in tennis

Tennis is my favorite game. My favorite player for years is Roger Federer and he is #2 player of the world right now. This is his eight attempt at this tournament to win this title and he had never pass quarter final at BNP Paribas Masters.His now in semi-finals and he is on course to win his third straight ATP World Tour title after he defeated No. 11 seed Jurgen Melzer of Austria. It is unbelievable that the guy like him who is considered to be the greatest player of all times, who had won all Grand Slams tournament titles, had never won this tournament.He is 29 years old and many experts are predicting that he is at the end of his carrier, but he is still playing unbelievable tennis and I hope hill make this Little history in Paris and he became a champion ones again.

thanksgiving

I can't believe Thanksgiving is just around the corner. Thanksgiving is the third biggest holiday after Christmas and Halloween.In the United States, Thanksgiving Day falls on the fourth Thursday of November.Thanksgiving Day in America is a time to offer thanks, of family gatherings and holiday meals. A time of turkeys, stuffing, and pumpkin pie. A time for Indian corn, holiday parades and giant balloons.Even in difficult times, there are always things for which to be grateful. For some people cooking the big holiday meal is stress.Everyone from local deli or favorite restaurant will likely offer Thanksgiving meals.I am not gonna use their services this year, because this year I will spend Thanksgiving in the circle of my family. Happy Thanksgiving.

crocodiles vs. alligators

Some people think that alligator or crocodile is a same animal but they think wrong. The truth is they are quite different.Alligators have a very broad, wide snout, and crocodiles have a narrower snout and jaw. Also crocodiles often have a lower tooth that juts out noticeably,while an alligator's fourth tooth is hidden. They have been considered villainous, man-eating monsters for centuries. Are they really so dangerous? The answer is yes. Alligators are actually "not" known for being aggressive toward man unless nesting or unexpectedly disturbed, but crocodiles do and have killed humans.The Nile crocodiles are known for the large number of human fatalities they cause every year. The best thing is never to approach one, even for a good “shot” with a camera.

halloween

The movie was about how Halloween became such a tradition. It began 3000 years ago in Ireland.Halloween is a mix of ancient Celtic practices, Catholic and Roman religious rituals and European folk traditions that blended together over time to create the holiday we know today.It is considered to be the scariest day of the year.Halloween has long been thought of as a day when the dead can return to the earth, and ancient Celts would light bonfires and wear costumes to ward off these roaming ghosts.Halloween began to lose its religious connotation, becoming a more secular community-based children's holiday. Although the superstitions and beliefs surrounding Halloween may have evolved over the years, as the days grow shorter and the nights get colder, people can still look forward to parades, costumes and sweet treats to usher in the winter season.

public tennis courts in NYC

I live in part of Queens called Woodhaven. I have walking distance to the public tennis courts there. The courts are in devastating condition for more than 4 years. Some of the cracks on the court surface are so big as a size of tennis ball, and anybody can easilly get hurt. Despite of this condition the people who work for the city are checking for the permits, and lock down the place after certain time. Permits are not cheap and the cost of permit is $100. People were signing petition 3 years ago and asking to fix these courts.Nothing happened till now. The courts are under the construction, so I had found another place to play this beautiful game. I was very surprised because about 5 miles from Woodhaven is Highland Park in Brooklyn and there is 14 tennis courts in very good condition.But listen to this. This courts have even a lights for night play and nobody is asking for permits there. How is this possible that in Queens people have to pay $100 for playing and in Brooklyn not? Both are public tennis courts in NYC. How is Mr.Bloomberg doing his job?

salmon fishing

Every year make a trip to Salmon river at Pulaski . It is a small town in NY state, approximately five hours by car from NYC towards Canadian border. The river at the time is packed with fishermen,and for the whole day you hear "fish on" and "fish off". I like it. I get up at 6AM and after I got back to the motel at 6PM, I have slept as a baby. Despite of excitement of fishing, the danger of drowning is still there. I felt into the watter myself and I was scared to death. The watter is very cold there so wearing the neoprene suit is needed. Some guys have ended the day without the fish, but many of them were more lucky. The fish gives a big fight and many times escapes from the hook.I love the feeling of the power on my rod when the fish is trying to escape. I can hear my heartbeat some times, and the fight can last up to 10 minutes or more. I hope that there will be the fish for another hundreds of years so me and my Friends can always go there and have some good times.

autumn

As summer ends and autumn comes, we notice this change because the days are getting shorter and shorter, and the trees "know" they have to get ready for winter. I love watching how the trees are changing the colors of the leaves.I use to drive to work, and on my way to work or from work ,I have been always fascinated by colors of the trees. Why the leaves are changing the colors? Why a maple leaf turns bright red,and where do the yellows and oranges come from. Chlorophyll is what gives plants their green color. Insufficiency of chlorophyll causes that the leaves are changing their colors.
Glucose is the product of photosynthesis.In some trees, like maples, glucose is trapped in the leaves after photosynthesis stops. Sunlight and the cool nights of autumn cause the leaves turn this glucose into a red color.The brown color of trees like oaks is made from wastes left in the leaves.
The combination of all these things make the beautiful fall colors we enjoy each year.

Bohemian Hall & Beer Garden

The oldest beer garden in New York City is 100 years old. Since 1910, Bohemian Hall has been a part of New York City history. This is the last original remaining Beer Garden in all of NYC. I remember the first time I had entered this place . It was eighteen years ago, and I was concerned that this is a place which is gonna die very soon. There were just four people with me and a bartender. The place was very slow, but after restriction of smoking in bars and restaurants, this place started be very popular among a smokers and beer lovers. You can easily fit over 1000 people in there. The garden is surrounded with 15 feet high stone walls and beautiful trees behind them. Especially in the summer time place is packed with the people and there are very long lines to get in . Miracles happens all the time, and this is a miracle that the garden didn't die.

NYC marathon

NYC Marathon is behind the corner.NYC Marathon along with the Boston Marathon and Chicago Marathon, it is among the pre-eminent long-distance annual running events in the United States. Not everybody can run it and overcome 42.195 km .For those who don't know, it is held on the first Sunday of November and attracts professional competitors and amateurs from all over the world,and has been run every year since 1970. Runners pass through all five boroughs of New York City.So hurry up get ready for this big event of the year.

Halloween and pumpkins.

Halloween is consider as the scariest day of the year. Nobody can imagine Halloween without pumpkins for jack-o-lanterns and decorations. The pumpkin is most often
associated with Halloween, but there are other fruits and vegetables which has a very strong connection to this holiday. In England and Ireland, Halloween lanterns were originally carved out of turnips and large beets and faces of demons were cut into vegetables.People carried these lanterns and placed them by their doorsteps to frighten away evil spirits.
When Irish immigrants arrived in America, they found pumpkins abundant and much easier to carve than turnips so the tradition of turning pumpkins into jack-o-lanterns began.
In the Victorian era the apple played a significant role in determining a young girl’s future: she slipped an apple under her pillow on Halloween eve so she was sure to dream of her sweetheart.Apples were also used to foretell the identity of the man she was to marry. At midnight on Halloween a girl would stand in front of a mirror and brush her hair three times while eating an apple. It is said the image of her future husband would appear in the mirror over her shoulder.
In Mediterranean countries rosemary was placed over the cradle of babies to protect them. It was often burned with juniper and thyme as a means of cleansing the room of bad spirits and witches. Rue was hung from doorways and windows to ward off evil spirits to prevent them from entering the house.
Salvia, also known as meadow sage, was considered a symbol of immortality and was planted on graves in cemeteries to symbolize eternal life.
Salvia, also known as meadow sage, was considered a symbol of immortality and was planted on graves in cemeteries to symbolize eternal life.
Did you know that around 90 to 95 percent of the processed pumpkins in the United States are grown in Illinois?

The twilight episode: "A game of pool".

I never watched the twilight episodes , but this one was interested and i really like it. The great Fats Brown is a long time death pool-shooting legend and nobody believes he can be beaten. On the other hand Jesse, pool-shark, believes he is the best player on the world even better than Fats Brown but how he can't prove it when the guy is dead. One night, he is pissed and he yells out his problems into a empty pool room and the call goes out to the long dead Fats Brown who comes back to earth and accepts Jesse’s challenge. Fats Brown doesn't want to play for money, he instead offers Jesse a real winner take all stake; if he wins, he lives to tell about it. If he loses, he loses his life. Jesse ultimately learns that even being a legend has its price when he wins the game only to find that after his own death he must constantly prove how good he is by playing the living players, like himself, for the duration of his eternity as a kind of a sentence.

The twighlight zone.

This movie is about a Henry Bemas who works for the bank as a teller. He is a "nut- reader", and he reads at work instead of doing his job, because his wife doesn't let him read at home. He is so crazy that he reads anything with the letters on it. One day at the job he had walked down to the vault to get some privacy with his reading, and later he found out that something horrible happened to the world. The H-bomb exploded on the outside when he was reading article about the H-bomb inside the vault.He was the only one who had survived this catastrophe. First thing came to his mind was to take his life away, but hes eyes cached the label with words "public library" on it.That automatically changed his mind, and he got excited about it. Now nobody was in his way to read all the books on this world, and he had all the time to read all these books in his entire life. At this point he was the happiest human being on this world. But evil didn't finished his work yet. What he didn't expected was that his glasses had completely broken, and that was the and of the world for him. I didn't really like the end because it was very cruel to him. I didn't like his wife acting as she hide the book from him and then with a smile let him open the book to read it, and when he opened the book all text was destroyed.I like the beginning of the movie as he couldn't count the money to his customer. At this point everything looked like real life to me, but at the end it was very sad and unreal.

environmental contamination by humans

All life on Earth depends on water. Contamination of rivers, lakes, seas, and precipitation poses serious environmental problems. Human activity is threatening quality of water. The burning of fossil fuels releases air-polluting compounds and large amounts of carbon dioxid into the atmosphere. The chemical reactions of these compounds with water alter the delicate balance of conditions for life by affecting water pH. Acid precipitation has killed fish and damaged other forms of life in lakes and streams, and it also changes soil chemistry and has negatively affected some forests. Major product of fossil fuel combustion is carbon dioxide which stays in the atmosphere. Some carbon dioxide is taken up by plants for their photosynthesis and about 30% is absorbed by the oceans. An increase of carbon dioxide is expected to change ocean chemistry and harm marine life and ecosystems.

Anabolic steroids

Anabolic steroids are synthetic variants of the male hormone testosterone.As prescription drugs,they are used to treat general anemia and diseases that destroy body muscle. Some individuals abuse these drugs,with serious consequences. Overdosing may cause liver damage leading to cancer,or alter cholesterol levels and lead to high blood pressure,increasing the risk of cardiovascular problems.Use of these drugs can reduce sex drive,infertility and breast enlargement in men. Use in women has been linked to menstrual cycle disruption and development of masculine characteristics and in teens can cause stunting growth.

Down syndrome

People with Down syndrome usually have a life span shorter than normal.Down syndrom was named after John Longdon Down,who characterized the syndrome in 1866.What causes Down syndrome? Normal human has 23 chromosomes pairs.They are numbered from 1 to 23.
So all together normal human has 46 chromosomes.People with Down syndrome have instead of 46 chromosomes one more chromosome number 21,so instead two chromosomes 21they have three chromosome 21.This condition is called trisomy 21. Trisomy 21 is the most common chromosome number abnormality. People with Down syndrome exhibit varying mental retardation. However,some individuals with the syndrome live to midle age or beyond,and many are socially adept and able to hold jobs. A few women with Down syndrome have had children,though most people with the syndrom are sexually underdeveloped and sterile.

Health

Low-fat diet . Before beginning a low-fat diet, it is important to understand that some fats are essential for good health. Fat is necessary for storing energy and absorbing certain vitamins. A diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol will yield the best health benefit. Keeping track of how much fat is in our diet, we need to know read nutritional labels on the food we buy. Low-fat diet should include no more than 65 grams of fat each day. To loose weight ,it is necessary to exercise enough to burn more calories than the body consumes. Eating in smaller, more frequent portions is important. Simple changes like switching to skim milk ,avoiding fried foods,and substituting traditionally high-fat dairy products such as sour cream and cream cheese with fat free version or yogurt helps with low-fat diet. In low-fat diet many people mistakenly believe if they eat only foods labeled low or reduced fat that they are following a low-fat diet. In low-fat diet less than 30 % of a pearson's total caloric intake should come from fat. People attempt to eat a low fat-diet to lower total fat and cholesterol to reduce health risk such as heart disease and also to achieve weight loss.

Carbon is basic of life.

Carbon is a sixt element in periodic table with atomic weight 12.01. Carbon plays important role in almost every biological process required to make our lives possible. Carbon is nonmetal element usually black but it can be clear and colorless.All forms of carbon are solid in room temperature. Carbon plays very important role in organic chemistry. Carbon makes four covalent bonds in his compounds and create carbon chains of varios lenghts and configurations. Carbon is an important part of natural polymers. Polymer (macromolecule) is a large molecule compoused of repeating structural units typicaly connected by covalent chemical bonds. Natural polymers occure in plants and animals and are very essential for life. For example,proteins constitute much of animal body , nucleic acids control heredity of molecular level and cellulose provides food ,clothing and shelter. Examples of natural polymers:starch,cellulose,protein,silk,wool,rubber. Cellulose is in plants. Starch is in potatoes,corn,rice and grains. Starch and cellulose are made from sugar (glucose)and they act differently. Starch dissolve in water but cellulose not. From starch we make food and from cellulose we build things and make clothing. Protein is a polymer we are made from.

microbes in our everyday life

Microbes are an essential part of all life on earth. Microbes were used for centuries to provide us with food through fermentation. We can't imagine life without a bread. Bread is a result of microbial fermentation of sugars to produce carbon dioxide, that make our bread rise. Yogurt and cheese are produced by fermentation of lactose, the sugar in milk. We make our beer and wine with help of microbes. Microbes converting sugars into alcohol for our consumption. Microbes such as phytoplankton also serve as a nutrient source that indirectly feeds all marine animals.

HAARP

HAARP(high-frequency active auroral research project). Its purpose is to analyze the ionosphere and investigate the potencial for developing ionosphere enhancement technology for radio communication and surveillance purposes.But what is a real motive??? Many people think HAARP camouflages the worlds biggest weapon ever created.It's potencial is worse than nuclear bomb.The world have allready experience with atomic bomb and everybody knows, that there are people they are able to do anything for their own profit. Despite warnings and protests it's going ahead anyway.Wake up our skies are being programmed, and we are not far behind.

swindle in science medicine.

Main stream media called it the biggest swindle in history of science medicine.
Dr.Scott Reuben, a former member of Pfizer Inc.'s speakers' bureau admitted he was falsifying his medical research papers. He accepted $75.000 grant from Pfizer to research the effectivness of pain medication CELEBREX. In this study no patiens were actually enrolled. This research suported the conclusion that CELEBREX was effective in helping patients who had recieved a particular type of knee surgery. All this study was published in the medical journal "Anesthesia & Analgesia". After this swindle journal had to retract some papers writen by Rueben, medical experts at the time said at least 21 journal articles by the Reuben appeared to be fabricated.Reuben was inventing his data for 13 years. Now he is facing 10 years in prison and $250.000 in fine.(www.theday.com/article/20100115/NWS01/100119833/1047)

Contract.

To finish succesfuly my English 227 with professor Kinsley, I would do my best to achieve this goal. In my English 227, I promise to be always on time and at least five minutes before the class start. I will never miss a class this semester , only if I have an emergency, and I always will notify my professor about my absence. In the class, I will be always focused from the start to the end.

I will never bring food ,alcohol drugs and any kind of weapons to the class. I will never come into the class under any influance of drugs and never distribute this drugs among my classmates. I will never use my cellphone in the class. I will keep my cellphone always in vibration mode and never text to another person. I will never act strange in the class , I will always bring my assigments on time so they can get graded on time. If I feel very sick and consider myself a danger to the rest of my class and my professor , I will go to see my doctor to get a treatment rather than make my classmates and professor sick. I believe that keeping all this resolutions will help me to achieve my goal, and it will have a huge impact on my final grade.

live concerts

People like music.They listen to the music in the car,subway,plane,at home ,at work simply everywhere.I like to go to the concerts but only to smal places like a Roseland Ballroom and Hammerstein Ballroom in Manhattan.Reason is simple.I can get more closer to the band there then on big stadiums like Yankee's or Giant's .I feel the atmosphere there much better.I can get to the stage very close ,maybe 10-20 feet.The other good think is you have bar there so you can drink.If you go to MSG to watch a metal band you can't drink beer or alcohol there.I remember my first concert at Roseland Ballroom and it was Alice Cooper band. I was having a fun and I really enjoyed the atmosphere . People were singing and dancing .I was at Giant stadium in NJ to see Bon Jovi and I was very disapointed.It wasn't that much fun .The band was to far but big screens were showing the band in the action.I didn't like it ,and I said to myself this is a last time I am at big stage like this for music entertainment.

to quit or not to quit

Everybody knows Mell Gibson .He is an excelent actor.His movies "Lethal Weapon and Braveheart" can't by forgotten.Lots of his fans were disappointed when he quit acting after his movie "Signs".But there are good news for his fans.He is comming back with new movie"Edge of Darkness".He is playing a lead role as a veteran cop trying to solve his daughter's murder.Personally I like Mel Gibson acting ,all movies I so with him were so much fun and action.Why he is back?Well,first he was saying he is quiting because he is tired and bored,but now he is back like anybody else who quit his job and than figured it out that a life without his job has no sense to him.Hopefully his eager for acting will last for a long time,and we will see more great movies with this great actor.

soccer world cup Africa 2010

First time in a history soccer world cup is gonna be in South Africa.The best teams from all over the world will play for the title.South Africa is a beautiful country no doubt about that.Personally I would love to go there and see in action all the best teams on the world.Americans are qualifying regularly to the world cup tournaments in last two decades.They are getting better and better and they are hoping for their first big succes at this stage of game..Africa is known as very dangerous place on this planet.Killings ,robberies and rapes are nothing new there.Organization of such big tournament costs a lots of money and security has to be a priority.Some of the teams are hirring private security teams for their own protection.Why is FIFA putting all these teams in this dangerous possition?

australian open

I am a big fan of tennis especially Roger Federer.He is the only guy I realy like to watch on the tour.Anybody can say that he is not only one who plays great tennis .I agree there is more very good players and some of them have head to haed with Roger better statistics(Rafael Nadal.Andy Murray...).He is something special.When I have started to play tennis long time ago my big hero was Bjorn Borg from Sweden.He wa s like a robot on the court and he also endetd his carier very early when he was 25 years old. At that time his big rivals were John Mcenroe and Jimmy Connors,their battles were fantastic.Tennis at that time was good but not that fast as today.Players today have better tennis raquets and strings so they can play a much faster tennis and make the balls spin a lot more than 15 years ago. As I said my first hero was B.Borg but watching the Swiss tennis superstar is something special.Today he reached his 23 th strait semifinal in a row and 18 th finals from the last 19 th grand slams.I woke up 4 AM today to watch his semifinel agains Jo-Wilfried Tsonga from France and it was worth it.I belive he is gonna win his 16 th major thournament in Australia.

credit cards

I have one very good habit that I always check up each item on my credit card bill. I am always suspicious that I can get overcharged.Doesn't happen often but it happened couple times.I came home tonight and have opened my credit card statement. First thing what took my attention was a $100 charge from a gass staion. "Do I drive a bus?", that was my first question.Nope.I have called custumer service and put a disput on this item. What I am trying to say is ,that everybody should pay a littel more attention to casual things like this and save some money.

How can an idiot make your day

I was taking a subway on my way to school last week and I was in situation when I didn't know if I should smile or I should be upset.I was trying to get out of the train an the guy behind my back have pushed me out. When I asked him what is wrong with him ,he started to curse me with names.The people around had fun and me too.I was in good mood so, I have asked him if he just reached his climax of the day and I have kept walking to the school. I was suprised how can some people even idiots like this guy make my day.I came to class and I pass my test with 100% score. Now, I always be looking for this guy before my next test.

corruption among politicians

One of the things I really don't care are politicians.I have many reasons for it.I believe all politicians are selfish,they don't look after their voters,they always look for their own profit.Another reason why I don't care is that politicians take their job as a business and these officials will do anything to stay employed and get reelected.Politicians want us to believe that they are noble and there is no corruption in these modern politics,and American system of goverment is a smooth,efficient maschine that runs without flaws.Politicians make decisions that efect our everyday life. They are worried more about ensuring their own financial succes, securing votes by any means, granting jobs or favors in return for votes and remaining popular. They are not concern with social issues but support or crush these issues with the decision that would benefit them personally.

internet communities

What are online communities? I am not so sure. One thing I can tell you is when I hear those words I usually think of chat rooms. Everybody knows that one thing what everybody can do is go to the chat rooms.There are many different chat rooms. I remember my friends telling me how much fun it was. I wondered what was so fun about it.If I want to talk to some of my friends,why I just pick up the phone and call them?They sed, it is a fun because you can talk to people all over the world.One of the first things you have to do to get to chat room is create your screen name.It was fun ,it took me almost 20 minutes to create one. There are millions of them to choose,and it is annoying when you finally pick up one and it's already taken.After I picked up my screen name I went to a chat rooms.Some of them were interested ,some not.I think that there is a category for everyone.One of the reasons why people go online is because they can to pretend to be anyone. A person who might have a low self-esteem or be shy might feel comfortable enough to start talking to other people. Also many kids go online because when you are young most parents will not let you go out at night. Even though chat rooms have their pluses ,they have also their negatives.Especially young people have to be careful who they talking to.Ther is a lots of crime on internet.

importance of military

In my opinoin each country needs a military. It would be nice to have a whole world without it,but reality is different. Military should be not for fighting the other countries , but for protecting each country from outside or inside enemies.Its impotant to train the military and have a new soldiers because you never know when war might happen.Military has changed many people who would not be who they are today wihout the discipline military gave them.The military has helped teenagers who have been bad during their adolescence to change into someone with a future.The military made a huge difference to a lot of peoples' lives.It has also helped to get an education and experience new things.The military is important in our lives because if another war break out,those soldiers will risk their lives to save ours.

influence of teacher

There are many other occupations out there that may recieve a better pay.But i don't feel that there are any other occupations that can be as rewarding as teaching children.The best possible reward for teacher is knowing that he has a influence on these children.Being a teacher means to provide love and understanding to someone who may not recieve it at home.Being a teacher means teaching students to be a success in life and means teaching students new information and being responsible for their future.Today's chidren are tomorrow's future and a good teacher is a part of the base that supports that future.

Euthanasia murder or not?

Everybody has a different opinion on this issue.Some people consider it as a murder some not.Murder can be defined as an act of violence which is perpentrated against a victim.For example,a man stuffed into a car after being shot four times is a murder victim.Euthanasia is not an act of murder.Euthanasia does take place and is selected voluntarily by patiens who are in great pain due to an incurable illness like cancer.It's their choice .Because patients select to die,their deads end sufferig, and there is no intention to cause harm,physician assisted euthanasia cannot be considered murder.

does alcohol helps to solve our problems?

What is alcohol? Alkohol is compound of carbon,hydrogen and oxygen , which can be combined together in many different ways.Alcohol consumption touches many million people around the world.Many people try to solve problems by drinking of alcohol.Doesn't work.When an individual consumes alcohol there are both short term and long term effects.Short term effect is that you feel excitement,happiness and relaxation.In a moment you forget about your problems at work,about your marriage and other things that bother you.When you stop drinking the problems come back.Instead of finding some smart ways to deal with the situation,many people just continu to drink.Later, they lost the job and marriage.On a long run after consuming alcohol for certain time of period they can face a serios health problems and even a death.My suggestion lttel bit of everything is like a medicine but too much is too much,and doesn't help to solve your problems.

Danger of mobile phones.

I can't imagine today's life without a mobile phones.Communication between people is easier and fast,but every coin has two faces.Same goes with mobile technology.Mobile phone addiction is a big social problem.Psychiatrists believe that mobile phone addiction is becoming one of the biggests non -drug addiction in the 21 st century.Teenagers are engaged on their mobile phones all the time,no matter on phone calls,using SMS text messages,personalising the mobil phones with ringtones and pictures etc.Mobile phones use radiation to connect.I believe too much time spent on the mobile phone can cause headache,earaches and blurring of vision.Scientists believe radiation can cause a cancer.Though ,these problems are still under research,parents and school teachers should inform kids and teenagers about the danger of these radiations and their effects.

bilderberg

There are many who believe that "shadow goverments "exist.I have heard about Bilderberg group.I have found on internet many articles about this Bilderberg group.The Bilderberg Group is named after the Dutch hotel where it held its first meeting in 1954.They are rich powerful people(politics,bankers,heads of royalty families...)that meet and plan out the power strategies for the whole world.The mainstream media dont inform us about their meetings,which are hold secretly and under highest levels of security.There is a plenty of speculation about what goes on in these meetings ,but without media to represent the people we have no voice.Who is gonna report the facts which are impacting our lives?Is goverment hiding something from us?

dangerous genetically modified food

Many people in this country have changed their eating diet.Many people are bying organic food to stay more healthy.Why?Because most of the food we are getting from food companies contain GMOs(genetically modified organisms).Warnings of FDA (Food and Drug Administration)scientists were ignored.GMOs in your food may make you sick.Studies link GMOs with toxins,allergies,infertility,infant mortality,immune disfunction,stunted growth,accelerated aging,and death.Why are the products not labeled if they contain GMOs?Who has the interest not to inform consumers?I am curious when the products will have labels for GMOs and finally when the food will be free of GMOs.In Europe in 1994 the food companies were forced to remove GMOs from food,the same companies who supply us.

imigration problem

The United States of America is known as "The Land of Opportunietes". We know that this country has at least 10 millions of illegal emigrants.All these people came to this country for different reasons.Most of them for political,religious or economical reasons.Many immigrants are not here to become a citizens.Many wish to stay for short time and than return to their home.In fact many immigrants are reluctant to become legal.Many harbor hopes and dreems of returnig back to their friends and family back home.Some of them want to have "dual citizenship" to travel back and forth,but there are still many of them who want to stay and get their citizenships.I am curious when this will happen.Former president G.W.Busch had promissed to legalize ilegal imigrants,but after he was elected for second term nothing happend.For another four years of his presidency he did nothing for emigrants.Looks like he just use this immigration issue for his personal benefit to get voted for another four years.

steroids in sport

I love sports, any sports and it's very exciting to wach or perform it.Today's sport is a big business.The athletes are willing to risk their careers and lifes for success.Very popular among
the athletes is use of steroids.They are looking for quick way to build muscles ,or to get stronger the fastest way possible.I think that using these drugs is degrading to sports and athletes.I am big fan of tenis and I was very disapointed when I have read on Internet that Andre Agassi was using the drugs during his career.The other famous tenis player Marat Safin from Russa said that he should return back the money and titels to the ATP.I agree,he was cheating on the other players and he was degrading this sport for many years.Using drugs is unethical and dangerous but can we stop it?

Many conspiracy theories of September 11 attacks continue to circulate on Internet.One of those theories was that the World Trade Center(WTC) twin towers were destroyed by controlled demolition. Non -experts (called by media) claimed that debris seen blowing out of windows was evidence of explosives,but experts identified this as air and light office contents.
"Non-experts" claimed that there were loud sounds under the ground that would have indicated
the use of explosives,but the officials have refused it. I like technology and i was studing a physics and this took my attention.I was searching on websides for this videos and I have founded what I was looking for. The videos have showed the loud sounds under the ground with people on tape confirming the sounds.This video tape was long about 2 hours and explaning by physics laws how it happend. I was very impressed and I can say that was very,very professional.Whatever, everybody has its own opinion on this matter.One thing is for sure,lot's of people lost their innocent lives and our goverment went to Iraq and Afganistan after that.I am very curios abot these theories and I am not alone.Everybody knows our goverment is corrupted and that our former president was lying under the oath(Clinton).Can we believe to everything wat is goverment telling us?

religion

Most of the people on this planet are religious.Why they believe in some kinde of super power represented by God?Why they believe in "afterlife"?Many people tried to prove that God exists.In my opinion God doesn't exists.I can't prove it ,but nobody proved that God exists.Religion came when people couldn't answer some questions.Religion answered all this questions with the stories of gods and godesses and other supernatural forces that were beyond of understanding of humans.There were slaves in our history without the rights forced to work from dawn till dusk.These people had no choice only believe in"afterlife".It's everybodies choice to deside if God exists or not.

swine flu and dirty medicine

Swine flu vaccination poses serious threath to your health.The WHO(World Health Organization) declared swine flu pandemic.Now the WHO hype is aimed at provoking mass hysteria over a non existing threath to humanity:swine flu,a much milder "A" flu than seasonal flu.Such politicly created hoax will by associated with mandatory of mass vaccination for no medical reasons but for enormous profits of the NWO(New World Order)corporations-as well as for global /political reasons.
The vaccine caries a risk of very serious complications.We remember last year Baxter's contaminations of seasonal flu vaccine with deadly bird flu virus.There is also a very serious problem with the adjuvant of the vaccine:the oil" squalene",which is said to caused the "Gulf Syndrom".Is there connections to the" illuminist" and "world elite's"depopulation programme?
In 1990 the UN's WHO launched a campaign to vaccinate millions of women in Nicaragua,Mexico and Philipines between the ages 15 and 45,allegedly against Tentanus.The vaccine was not given to the boys!The women were incapable of maintaining a pregnancy,none of the women were told about it.It later came out that the Rockefeller foundation along with the Rockefeller population Counsil,the World Bank and the United States National institutes of Healh had been involved.
Global Research, June 11,2009:"A total population of 250-300 million people,a 95%decline from present levels,would be ideal."-Ted Turner to Audubon magazine 1996.
Dare you let yourself to be vaccinated against a harmful flu virus-much less harmful than seasonal flu-by money-and power grasping NWO psychopats.

the great global warming swindle

Nobody is saying that change of climate doesn't exist.The problem is what is causing this changes.What is the purpose of this new "religion" which comes from USA?(Al Gore)
It's doubtless that it follows a certain purpose but not to save humanity?Was it necessary to create idea of global warming for only a reason which is a money?We were told that Earth's
climate is changing,but the Earth was always changing.In Earth's long history there have been
countless periods when it was a much warmer and much cooler than it is today, when much of
the Earth was covered by tropic forest or covered with vast of icefields.The climate was always changing without us humans.The global warming is a swindle with one purpose "MAKE THE MONEY"!
