A bucket of Scorpion for force eviction

Straight out of a Grade B horror flick, residents of an apartment complex in Shenzen, China, which borders Hong Kong, woke to find hundreds of scorpions invading their homes and covering their floors.

In the case of one frightened tenant, a scorpion crawling over his body awakened him. When he turned on the light, he found many more, creeping and crawling all over his bedroom.
It is believed that a real estate developer, in an attempt to force evictions, is behind the horrible horde of 110 pounds of living, stinging scorpions.

Residents told the press that a man carrying a large bucket was seen walking from the apartment’s development office and dumping the contents into open windows. Currently, the company is trying to evict the residents in favor of a more profitable construction project.
The company denies these allegations on the grounds that their deal was sealed with the construction company and there would be no need to force evictions.
The apartments in question are slated for demolition, BUT homeowners have not yet signed anything, as they are awaiting compensation settlements.
Police and residents spent 24 hours hunting down the scorpions and removing them from homes.
Forced evictions and the denial of full compensation by greedy developers happen often in China and it is a major source of social discontent.
Check out this video below depicting the dynamic nature of this terrible trend and…watch where you walk!
You never know what might be underfoot.

Stylish Egyptian

A study of male and female mummies has revealed the  fashion-conscious Egyptians made use of a fat-based product to keep  their hair in place.They  used the styling gel on both long and short hair, tried to curl their     hair with tongs and even plaited it in hair extensions to lengthen  their    tresses.

It  is thought they used the product in both life and death, with corpses  being styled to ensure they looked good in the afterlife.
 The  incredible discovery was made by archaeological scientists who studied hair samples of 18 male and female mummies, aged from four to 58  years old. The  team, from the KNH Centre of Biomedical Egyptology at the University of Manchester, was led by Dr Natalie McCreesh who studied the mummies  as part of her PhD.

Using light and electron microscopes, they found that nine of the mummies had coated their hair in the fatty substance, which is thought to be a beauty  product.
Some of the mummies, which were artificially preserved, show the gel was used to prepare the body for the afterlife.
But others, which were preserved naturally in dry sand, prove the product must also have been used in everyday life by the vain Egyptians.
Bizarrely, even in the artificially-preserved bodies the hair did not contain resins or embalming materials, suggesting the hair was styled separately to the mummification process.
The preserved bodies are between 3,500 and 2,300 years old, with most being excavated from a Greco-Roman cemetery in Dakhleh Oasis in the Western Desert.
Further study of the material, using gas chromatography mass spectrometry found the substance contained palmitic acid and stearic acid.
Dr McCreesh, 29, who is now a visiting scientist at the university, said: "The Ancient Egyptians used this fatty product just like we use gel today.
"The similarities are amazing.
"We knew that paintings in tombs have shown people with ungent cones on top of their heads, which were thought to be made of fats and scented resin.
"So we looked at hair on a selection of mummies to see if there was any trace of it.
"We found there was a fatty substance being used to hold hair in place.
"There was a variety of hair styles and cuts - some of the mummies had really beautiful curled hair.
"Under the microscope we could see the fat was used specifically on the curls, to hold them in place - just like people would now.
"One of the mummies had quite short hair and we joked she looked like Marilyn Monroe. Some others had longer curly hair, a little bit like    Rihanna.
"Some of the younger men had their hair parted and slicked down with the product.
"We found the fat on the hair of nine mummies - the rest were very degraded and it wasn't possible to say for sure whether or not it was there.
"It's reasonable to think that some people would have styled their hair and others wouldn't - just like today.
"Because some of them were preserved naturally, we can see that they used it in everyday life as well as when they were being preserved in death.
"It probably wouldn't have been the very poorest, but it certainly wasn't restricted to just pharaohs or high nobility - ordinary people used it too.
"It's absolutely fascinating. You can almost imagine them tending their hair and setting their curls, just like we might today."
The hair coating was found to contain fatty acids including palmitic acid and stearic acid, but it is hoped further research can help identify the exact recipe.
The research has now been published in the Journal of Archaeological Science.

Why Lovers hurt their beloved

A lover, who claims to love, can never hurt his/her beloved. Love demands that you care utmost for your beloved. You are concerned about their feelings. You make them as comfortable as possible. You keep them as happy as possible. You help them fulfill their dreams. You encourage them during tough times and you are always there for them. If you don't do this, there will be nothing called as love. The definition of love includes the qualities I mentioned.

This does happen. In many relationships it happens all through the life. Such couples need not worry to know about heaven. Their home is heaven. But in some relationships, if a lover wishes to break away for any reason including feelings of being treated unjust, the results will be harrowing.

Let us look at what will happen. As the lover who wishes to break away remembers all the investments she/he did for the love, she will feel that all has gone waste. All my sacrifices are in vain. I did so much for many years, and now what is the result? This frustration and anger is directed towards the partner. At that time the lover who is breaking away forgets that worse will happen to one she /he will be leaving. Only selfish thoughts occupy the mind.

This is the tragedy of such love. The one who is left behind might have made more sacrifices and given a lot more for love. He/she gets bewildered at why this break up is happening? It is like a sudden earthquake. That is why I asked, that if you love someone why hurt?

Be Positive: Talk to Yourself

There is always a debate about whether daily affirmations work - the kind of uplifting statements you repeat to yourself in the mirror each morning.

I find a more effective way to improve your mood and self-esteem is to create your own positive scripts for regular re-reading and study. On those days when you're really down on yourself and think that you're a failure, immersing yourself in a book crammed with notes about your qualities and accomplishments can restore your balance, brighten your spirits, and re-energize you for the rigors of the job hunt.

Keep a notebook close by and jot down every little success you've ever had. List your personal characteristics, work and non-work successes, little things you've done that made you feel proud. Record what other people have said to you as compliments or in gratitude. Note any awards or trophies you've ever won.

Describe your accomplishments, big and small: completing a difficult class, learning how to bowl or play a decent round of golf, teaching your teenager how to drive a stick shift, losing that last 10 pounds. No one reaches adulthood without a long string of successes along the way but we tend to discount them because our emotions are engaged by our failures, the "ones who got away."

Keep adding to your book of positives as you think of more and more accomplishments (the list will grow, the more you think about it). On the days when you think your value to the world is zero, take out your book to remind yourself of your own worth. The world is a better place due to all of our collective efforts so give yourself an emotional pat on the back.

Parenting Teens

 It is just part of parenting teens to feel shut out and worthless as a parent, right? This is not the case. Most children (remember, teens are still kids) need a firm parental hand on their shoulder. While most of the time they will make good decisions based on what you have taught them through the years, other times they will struggle endlessly with peer pressure. The first thing that you need to do as a parent is to take a step back and then make your move.

Take A Step Back

Parenting teens is no easy task. The first thing that you need to do, no matter how angry you are, is to take a small step back and realize what is really happening with your teen. To do this, you need to realize what they are facing. They are facing peer pressure, constant rejection from friends and are usually struggling with their self image. They are under a lot of stress and do not need you to add to it.

Make Your Move

No matter what you see when you take your step back; you need to react to it. If you are thinking that you do not need to worry about your child because they will make the right choices, you are welcoming their pain. Instead, you need to pull them aside when they are having trouble and talk to them in a frank yet understanding way. For example, if you suspect that your child is doing drugs, sit down with them, tell them what you think is happening and offer to help them to get them back on track. No accusations, no pressure, just you being a parent.



Realize that all children make mistakes, even teens. The mistakes teens make are just bigger and more life threatening than those that toddlers make. Yet, parenting teens means being a parent to them. Realize what is happening to your child. Realize what you need to do about it. Forgive them for making the mistake and help them to get out of it. You will need to do this type of parenting for as long as you have teens.

Living in with friends

 Here are a few reasons why you do not want to move in with a friend and some personal experiences from when I lived with my  best friend.

Personal Space and Quiet time:

     When living with friends you will not have any privacy or quiet time, and the closer the friends you are the worse it will be. You may not realize it now but you are not always in the mood to be with your friends sometimes you may want to just sit in your room and relax, and if a friend called you up you could say you were busy but if you live with a friend they will be knocking on the door and bothering you all the time, and good friends will often borrow things of yours without asking you. Where as someone you found via ad will usually leave you alone when your door is closed except for something important.


My old roommate would always go into my room to borrow my things no matter how much I asked him not to, and every time I asked she would get insulted because it was his so it should be ok with me. If your things is broke and asked and why he didn't take care of it that's a major issue of   friendship. Your friend will get mad and insulted because he thinks that you value more of your things than your friendship.

Finances:

The reason why you moved in to an apartment is because you needed help being able to afford your expenses, and someone you don’t know will usually be more responsible with making sure they have the money to bay their half of the bills then a friend will, a friend will ask you to help them out when they are short on cash.

One of my friends would always spend his rent or bill money in buying online card for his MMORPG character, spending to much on internet cafe, loading his globe internet broadband stick , gambling  such as tong-it  or poker. I like to play some poker  just as much as anyone else but I always made sure to not gamble with my rent money . If I was short on money I would not gamble but rather play for fun, but I would never allow myself to not have the money to pay my share of the bills.  I played online games but I have my limitation. If you tell them , they will make you feel bad, some will replied "it's their money" or " when I borrow money I'm paying it, right?" and instead of losing your patience , just go to your room or get out...


Cleaning of the Shared Spaces:

In the past roommates I had found in the news paper always made sure that any space we shared like the kitchen or living room was kept clean. If you cooked something any mess was cleaned from the counter and pots, pans and plates would be put in the sink and were taken care of after as soon as possible  and never leave not until you clean so that you will not invite any insect, but friends may take advantage of the slack you will give to a friend, because they know you would be ok with it.
 One of my friend will leave his dishes in the sink and when you complain they will tell you "Dont be OC's!"  Wow, now I'm OC but when I went on a vacation in our Province for 3 days, the plate, the glass and pans are all in the sink .. annoying


Power Consumption:

Unless your roommate has lots of money and lets face it if they had cash they would not need a roommate, then they will be looking to save money and not want to waste money on electricity, and once you agree on things like using the dryer or electric fan two roommates who meet online or from an add sign  will usually respect the rules better then two friends will. Friends will usually bend the rules, like leaving the computer on all day or running the electric fan, leaving television ON  all night or worse the iron.

My friends used to leave their electric fan on all day long and would often leave their rooms and even the apartment without turning them off, and instead of being more responsible for their actions they would make up excuses like "oops I forgot" and will just say sorry but still they are doing that habit.




      So before I totally ruined our friendship and get annoyed so much,  I decided to move to my auntie's house and I just gave my friends a reason that it is better because I can save more from rent and fare . They understand me because they know my story and how I send half of my salary to my mom at our province to help her.  A good excuses right?

These are just some of the many reasons you should avoid living with friends, especially if you want to keep them as friends. It is one thing if a friend needs a place to stay for a week or two but never ever let them move in.

ikaraoke

      Fast approaching a staggering 500,000 apps, you'd be forgiven for thinking the Apple iPhone allows us to do almost anything.

But designers are now patenting technology to help achieve the impossible for many - the ability to sing perfectly.

Apple has produced software for the iPhone and iPod turning the devices into a mobile karaoke system that tells you clearly if you are off-key or miss a beat.

The user will be able to use their iTunes library to choose their favourite songs to sing along to, according to the Daily Telegraph.

On the screen, just like a karaoke machine, the lyrics and tune will run along it in time with music.

But in a bid to improve the person's performance the software will analyse singing throughout and let them know how they are doing, with any mistakes amplified and the perfect pitch made to sound even better.

It is understood that through the user's earphones their errors will be made to sound worse so they can clearly hear where to improve.

But a great singer will hear their performance as if it was at a venue like the Royal Albert Hall.
At the end of the song every person will get a full appraisal of what they did right and wrong.
The patent also proposes allowing users to record their performances as well as edit and listen to them back - comparing them directly to the original hit.

It is also understood that the software will also have a means of saving face for very poor singers.If plugged into speakers a person's bum notes will be covered up with a 'fuzz' rather than be exaggerated like it would through headphones.

Apple refused to say how it would move forward with its patent or when it would be available, but it could be soon as a huge karaoke section has been developed on iTunes.

Forex Trading

      This is my first time to post about forex and can't think of any good topic or humor because I'm reading a lot of economics report and watching every news around U.S.A, Canada, Great Britain, other Europe happenings , and Japan's economy. Need to focus  for me not to loose. Analyzing all of the effect and how much impact they will have for tuesday trade.

     I'm into forex trading for almost six years now but not that active anymore. During my first 3 months I trade everyday Monday- Friday. You need a total focus and constant study on every countries economics that interest you. A lot of work from analyzing, doing a graph, comparing and studying again to make sure it is good enough and to avoid mistake not to loose. Lucky for me during those days I lost only twice, I lost because I have the doubt on my study and I believe to other trader prediction. I learned my lesson from that lost, not to rely on others prediction and believe in your self and what you have studied. That's the advice I gave from the person interested in forex and try to learn from me.

 
     The forex trading system involves buying and selling foreign currency. Unlike the stock market there is no fixed market for the forex trading system. A good and effective forex trading system allows the traders to transact easily and provide more chances to increase the earnings. Forex, foreign exchange market, is a market place where a currency of one country is sold for another country's currency for some profit. Currencies are traded in pares, like, US Dollar and Japanese Yen or US Dollar and Euro.



     Foreign exchange tradings are a great money making opportunity for those who know their way around, for newbie it's a dream world where they either fall hard, sail well or fly high, its not easy to be a successful trader in the forex trading system., it's a mix of luck and experience that must work to find success. There are a lot of companies and individuals over the internet and offline willing to help you earn money from the forex trading system but only a handful of these are true and can actually help.

      Nowadays most of the calculations are done by easy to use software that need minimum input from the user. You will need help initially, and may take some time for you to get to know the forex trading system. The high degree off leverage can sweep you either way, in the forex trading system one has to assess the risk for self, think of the chance one may have individually or with the help of a broker and/ or signal provider one may have and the amount which one can safely risk without putting yourself into financial trouble. It's a law of nature, where there's potential to earn there' potential to loose so just be prepared before you dive in.

The Powerful Diary

 Anne Frank  

A young girl full of Hope 

        In 1944, Gerrit Bolkestein, a member of the Dutch government in exile, announced in a radio broadcast from London that after the war he hoped to collect eyewitness accounts of the suffering of the Dutch people under the German occupation, which could be made available to the public. As an example, he specifically mentioned letters and diaries. Anne Frank decided that when the war was over she would publish a book based on her diary. Anne died of typhoid in 1945 in Bergen-Belsen at age 15. Her father was the only one to survive the camps. Upon his return home, a friend gave him Anne's dairy, which they had rescued from the attic. It fell instead to her father ,Otto Frank , to see her diary published. 

  The Diary of a Young Girl on display at the Anne Frank Zentrum in Berlin, Germany.

           Anne Frank's diary became one of the most inspirational and had powerful impact of the words inside the diary of a young girl have had on the world. She wrote a detailed account on her diary.
         In 1940 one of her entry in the diary ,  she writes ‘Peter was the ideal boy: tall, slim and good-looking, with a serious, quiet and intelligent face. He had dark hair, beautiful brown eyes, ruddy cheeks and a nicely pointed nose. I was crazy about his smile, which made him look so boyish and mischievous.’ She perfectly describe her one true love. Any woman will fall on her 'one true love'. Even though the family of Anne Frank had no picture of Peter Schiff ,  Readers  felt sincerity and love from Anne as she wrote her entry dreaming for Peter.

  Lutz Peter Schiff 

(taken:1939 / discovered 2008)

Anne Frank's 'Great Love'

      The humble journal is not only about  love, it is an actual diary that's greatly written of an 11 year-old girl about  hope, grief, terror, strength and dreams while Ann's family and 4 others hid in the attic of a factory from June 12, 1942 to August 1, 1944 when they were betrayed to the Nazis. The diary is the mirror of the world in the views of a young girl while being terrorized by Nazis. Anne wrote every detail on what she experienced during dark days.

    
     In 2010 the Culpeper County, Virginia school system banned the 50th Anniversary "Definitive Edition" of Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl, due to "complaints about its sexual content and homosexual themes."
     This version "includes passages previously excluded from the widely read original edition...Some of the extra passages detail her emerging sexual desires; others include unflattering descriptions of her mother and other people living together."
    After consideration it was decided a copy of the newer version would remain in the library and classes would revert to using the older version.

It's been translated into 67 languages and is one of the most widely read books in the world. 



Interesting Fact:
Peter Schiff does not reappear in the diary until January 6, 1944, after Anne had been in hiding for more than one and a half years. After she has a dream about Peter she writes ‘At that point I woke up, still feeling his cheek against mine and his brown eyes staring deep into my heart, so deep that he could read how much I’d loved him and how much I still do, and now Peter, my dearest Peter. I’ve never had such a clear mental image of him. I don’t need a photograph, I can see him oh so well.’ The photo of Peter Schiff along with a note that reads ‘A friendly memento of your friend Lutz Peter Schiff’ was donated to the Anne Frank museum by Ernst Michaelis had recently discovered last 2008 . Like Anne Frank’s family, Peter’s family fled Germany for the Netherlands and died in Auschwitz or Bergen-Belsen.

The Birthday Gift

     Isabelle Prévost has the most best, funniest, and weird gift she ever had from his ex-husband who happened to be a Mayor  and own a excavation company. Isabelle recieved a a 20-tonne, gift-wrapped boulder her  driveway.

.

     Dany Larivière, who is the mayor of Saint-Théodore-d’Acton, near Montreal, claims to have deposited the rock in Isabelle Prévost’s driveway in a bid to get her to stop harassing him.

Dany Larivière is the mayor of Saint-Théodore-d’Acton, a small town near Montreal 

Mr Larivière sprayed the rock with fluorescent orange birthday greetings and topped it off with a pink bow.

‘She never had a rock big enough for her tastes, now she has one. That’s the biggest rock she’ll ever get in her life,’ he added, claiming the boulder was a ‘gift’

The pair, who split acrimoniously three years ago, have each accused each other of harassment.

The Unbelievable Choices

       If you are given 2 choices to go to school which of these two will you choose?
1.) Take a dreadful 2 hours trekking and hiking with the chances of encountering the wild animals such as wild boar ... or
2.) Do the 1 minute zipline 1200 meters above!

     The image above is not photoshop nor edited.. This is the harsh reality of  Daisy Mora, an 11 year-old girl, pulling some commando crap just to go to school , so crazy and insane for other average Joe or a normal kid out there.

and despite what one would reasonably assume, it does not show the girl desperately screaming for her mommy while her callous and irresponsible uncle laughs from the launch platform. She not only ziplines by choice, but has done so on this ramshackle, ancient setup - situated over 1200 feet in the air - twice a day, every day, for her entire life with her 7 year old sister in a damn sack.

    When you look at her face you can't see any traces of fear on her and doing that batshit crazy stuff is just a normal thing.
      Life is sooooooooooooo unfair, kids should not doing this, Daisy made me look like a sissy girl when the first time I experience the zipline and screaming my heart out because of the idea I'm falling 1000 feet above the ground and I need to pay for it, to scare myself... HaH! While on the other side of the world, kids like Daisy and other 60 people in their community is doing it like a normal thing to do before you can shops on your basic needs for their entire life because they  live in the secluded area , 60 people use that ziplining everyday.  Daisy is enjoying the zipline and higher than what I experienced and vow that I will not doing it again..for her its just normal thing just like walking. and its all free... (being sarcastic!)

Humor: The moral Story of One stone

Good day readers.. here's another humor try to guess the moral story...

One Stone - This was his Indian name given to him
because he had only one testicle. After years and
years of this torment One Stone cracked and said, "If
anyone calls me One Stone again I will kill them!" The
word got around and nobody called him that any more.

Then one day a young girl named Blue Bird forgot and
said, "Good morning, One Stone." He jumped up, grabbed
her and took her deep into the forest, and there he
made love to her all day, he made love to her all
night, he made love to her all the next day, until
Blue Bird died from exhaustion.

The word got around that One Stone meant business.

Years went by until a woman named Yellow Bird returned
to the village after many years away. Yellow Bird, who
was Blue Bird's cousin, was overjoyed when she saw One
Stone and hugged him and said, "Good to see you, One
Stone."

One Stone grabbed her and took her deep into the
forest where he made love to her all day, made love to
her all night, made love to her all the next day, made
love to her all the next night, but Yellow Bird
wouldn't die!

What is the moral of the story?
(You'll love this ...)

















Sometimes, You can't kill two Birds with One Stone !

Humor: Good Manners

During one of her daily lessons, a teacher trying to teach good manners, asks her students the following question: “Michael, If you were on a date having dinner with a nice young lady, how would you tell her that you have to go to the bathroom?”

Michael says “Just a minute, I have to go pee.”

The teacher responds by saying, “That would be rude and impolite. What about you, Sherman, how would you say it?”

Sherman says, “I am sorry, but I really need to go to the bathroom. I’ll be right back.”

“That’s better, but it’s still not very nice to say the word bathroom at dinner table. And you, little Edward, can you use your brain for once and show us your good manners?”

“I would say, ‘Darling, may I please be excused for a moment? I have to shake hands with a very dear friend of mine, whom I hope to introduce to you after dinner.”

The teacher faints.

Father raised cat and left baby starve to death

     A 2 year 10 month old Japanese baby has starved to death because the his irresponsible  father was more concerned with raising the cat.
Police stated that the starved baby must have gone into survival mode, eating anything he could find, after pieces of diaper, cat litter, plastics, and papers were found in his stomach.
   
The father denied the charges and also offered the following statement:  ”It’s not that I didn’t do anything.  It was just my cat was more important than my child.”
Japanese social service were alerted to the boys situation after his check up at 6-7 months old, he was only 13.7 pounds.  This tragic and heartbreaking case could have been prevented.
The social service had gone to the house to check on the baby five times, but to no avail as the father would never let them see the boy or they weren’t home.
When the boy died he only weighed 12.8 pounds.  Normal average weight for a 2 year 10 month old boy is 29.7 pounds.
The mother called the police saying her baby was not breathing.  Police immidiately rushed the baby to the hospital but he died that night.  Officers are investigating the case after hospital officials told them that they suspect the parents were neglecting the child. Unfortunately it’s a little to late.
