I was mourning for my lost money in the busy metro this morning. What an unlucky day, I talked with myself. To my chagrin, it was the second time for this month that I lost my money. I was annoyed with myself.
"Morning, Mickey!" Mr. Armous smiled and greeted to me when I walked out the metro near my company. Last time when I lost myself on the way to his company to give back his stamp, he happened to come back from outside and picked me up.
"Morning, Sir." I answered in a languid tone.
"What's up,
For the past few days, I have been reading various articles about this remarkable young lady, Malala Yousafzai. She was feted to be a Noble Prize 2013, but she does not win it. However, I think she is still a winner to many children especially young girls. I think when you read her name, no futher introduction is necessary about this brave young lady. But, give me a little leeway here, I still want to say a few words about her.
Malala was a student in Swat Valley, Pakistan. She was an advocate of

Listen To News: Tokyo To Host 2020 Olympics Games - 10 September 2013
Discussion Question: While people in Tokyo are overjoyed by the news, many Japanese residents who have been displaced by the Fukushima nuclear disaster think Japan's money and effort should be spent on the tsunami damage. What are your thoughts on this argument?
Great question to think over. The tsunami-shaped massacre whereby Japan population went through in March 2011 is not forgotten in our minds yet. It was a unpredict

I was so excited when hearing the electropop English band Fenech Soler was coming to my hometown on a television advertisement. I listen to the Fenech Soler's sound for the first time on a internet radio last year. The band released the debut album in 2006 and comes from Kings Cliffe, Northamptonshire in England. It consists of four members namely: Ross Duffy, Ben Duffy, Daniel Fenech-Soler (whose name entitles the band) and Andrew Lindsay. The sound of the band blends synthpop, indie pop, an
Till Lindemann uses both tones of his voice... I love its chorus and E-guitar !
Even on the waves there is fighting
Where fish and flesh are woven into sea
One stabs the lance while in the army
Another throws it into the ocean
Arise, arise seaman arise
Each does it in his own way
One thrusts the spear into a man

Arise, arise seaman arise
And the waves cry softly
In their blood a spear is lodged
They bleed softly into the ocean
The lance must be drowned in flesh
Fish and man sink

Atomic enegy , the internet, guns and so on are very convenient and necessary at the present time but if we incorrectly use these things, our society will be severely damaged.

Discussion Question: Do you think these types of man-made barriers will protect the Netherlands from future storm surges resulting from global warming?
Looking at the question in a positive mood, I believe the human technology is evolving everyday. On this side, I think whilst the technology improvement human ability is in progress to overcome the incredible strenghts nature has, men has the power in its hands to control the natural effects provoked by own devastation.

I am sure you have known IQ, EQ and FQ, but do you also know SQ? Giggling, let me tell you the secret.

The so-called SQ means your ability to control your body and your health. I'm healthy therefore I am; I am shaped therefore I am. There goes a Chinese saying, the body is the capital of revolution. It's the most primitive capital.
Nowadays, with the rapid development of human society, there are more and more people
