Chocolate can be good for you!

Chocoholics around the world can take heart from new research which shows chocolate can help you live longer - as long as you don't eat too much of it.

According to US research, people who eat chocolate and sweets up to three times a month live almost a year longer than those who eat too much or those who steer clear of the substance altogether.

Researchers from the Harvard School of Public Health studied almost 8,000 American men aged around 65 for a five-year period.

The results were adjusted for other risk factors, including smoking.

People who consumed a moderate amount of chocolate survived longer than those who ate sweets three or more times a week and those who never touched sweets.

"As with most things in life, moderation seems to be paramount," the researchers wrote in the British Medical Journal.

Heart disease and cancer

Although the test included both chocolate and sweets, the researchers believe chocolate is the key to a longer life.

They believe it contains substances that protect against heart disease and cancer.

Chocolate, like red wine - which is also said to protect against heart disease, is believed to contain chemicals called phenols.

These reduce the presence of free radicals that damage cells and DNA, causing disease.

The researchers also think the cacao plant, from which chocolate and cocoa is derived, may restrict the formation of the type of cholesterol which damages the heart as well as boosting the immune system.

However, chocolate is high in calories and eating too much can therefore make you fat, increasing your risk of heart disease.

Chocolate, which originates from the Aztecs and was brought to Europe after the conquest of South America, is big business.

The average American eats around 6.5 kilograms of it a year.

Doesn't Chocolate Have a lot of Fat?

Here is some more good news -- some of the fats in chocolate do not impact your cholesterol. The fats in chocolate are 1/3 oleic acid, 1/3 stearic acid and 1/3 palmitic acid:

· Oleic Acid is a healthy monounsaturated fat that is also found in olive oil.

· Stearic Acid is a saturated fat but one which research is shows has a neutral effect on cholesterol.

· Palmitic Acid is also a saturated fat, one which raises cholesterol and heart disease risk.

That means only 1/3 of the fat in dark chocolate is bad for you.

Enjoy sparingly! =)

Current Style Petrograd.

By: Felliph Rebuitti Souto

In the XXI century, we are increasingly looking to the past, this process can be seen in the speeches or the media present on social networking sites, more and more young people use in writing abbreviations, slang, a clear example that we see today is you, through language young is the same as c, "just an observation, you comes from the word, your worship, going on from time to vosmicê and now is just c".

With the facts mentioned above, we can also see the current style of eighty percent of today's youth because "short" funk, parangolé, levanoiz, songs that do not have complete lyrics and has only the chorus, and the head of the youth are the best songs in the world and thus make the greatest success today. "If you look well these songs have the sensuality and pornography, the latter mainly present in the funk.

As previously stated, the media nowadays, increasingly available to all social classes, are giving a strong contribution to the spread of musical styles, for example, if a video posted on YouTube, "type" I am fucking "is very successful and soon is being broadcast on radio and television.

Analyzing the lyrics of some songs, for example, "I'm fucking" and "adultery" are totally pornographic letters that stimulate the sex and induces the young man's betrayal is something good and very pleasant and the letter of the song "Dakota" has ambiguity in sense of pornography or something totally nonsensical, given the context of music.

We can see that speech, writing, culture, music are regressing more and this leads us to ask the following question: Will our future is our time of the caves?

Alice: Madness Returns

One of the most famous children’s books of all time is Lewis Carroll’s Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. Its enormous success has inspired many different kinds of adaptations, from parodies to movies and games.
A brand new retelling of Alice’s tale has just arrived in the stores around the world: Alice: Madness Returns.

This video game, developed by Electronic Arts, is the sequel to American McGee’s Alice, which shows the protagonist older, more cynical and macabre.

The first video game, that was released in 2000, happens some time after the Through the Looking-Glass adventure and it starts when Alice’s house is burned down by a fire, and she is the only survivor of the incident. She gets mad and is taken to an asylum, where Dr. Heironymous Wilson observes and treats her.
She “started to follow the White Rabbit” and then goes back to Wonderland that is actually her subconscious mind, and discovers that her madness has completed ruined it. So... as you may think, she has to install the peace again to recover her sanity.

As you can note in the trailers below, the game contains a lot of symbolism, what includes alchemical symbols, cards, Baphomet references, white rabbits, dolls and many more.
In spite of this, the game seems to be very creative. Watch the videos in full screen mode. It’s scarier.

I'm so sorry for the people who bought it thinking it was a family game....

See? She knows how to use the Vorpal Sword.

Optical Illusions

Humans have five senses: olfaction, tact, palate, listening and sight. Each one has its own importance, since they are present in the organs of our body that help us to understand and interact with the world around us.
It’s like a machine. Each sense plays its part and sends its information to the brain, where these information will be interpreted and processed.
The sight, especially, has its importance. “See” is a very important act, but the interesting is that, sometimes, the information that the eyes send to the brain can be not correct. They are called optical illusions, phenomenon that happen when the brain wrongly interpret the information sent to him.
“An optical illusion is characterized by visually perceived images that, at least in common sense terms, are deceptive or misleading. Therefore, the information gathered by the eye is processed by the brain to give, on the face of it, a percept that does not tally with a physical measurement of the stimulus source. A conventional assumption is that there are physiological illusions that occur naturally and cognitive illusions that can be demonstrated by specific visual tricks that say something more basic about how human perceptual systems work.”
Look to the place where a vertical line intercepts a horizontal one. If you stop looking into it, you’ll notice black circles where the lines meet each other. But, if you look to one dot directly, it’ll disappear.

Gear: Pay attention in the dot in the middle of the picture and move your head back and forth.

“Gira-gira”:Look fixedly to one of the black dots in the picture and see what happens with the circles around it.

The Kite Runner is a novel by Khaled Hosseini. Published in 2003 by Riverhead Books, it is Hosseini's first novel, and was adapted into a film of the same name in 2007.

The Kite Runner tells the story of Amir, a young boy from the Wazir Akbar Khan district of Kabul, who befriends Hassan, the son of his father's Hazara servant. The story is set against a backdrop of tumultuous events, from the fall of Afghanistan's monarchy through the Soviet invasion, the mass exodus of refugees to Pakistan and the United States, and the rise of the Taliban regime."It tells the story of an Afghan boy, Amir, who escapes the violent destruction of his homeland after the fall of the monarchy and comes to live with his father in the United States. But years later he must return to Afghanistan to come to terms with the ghosts that

haunt his past. "

The story takes place over three separate time periods in 1978, 1988, and 2000.

Amir, a well-to-do Pashtun boy, and Hassan, a Hazara who is the son of Ali, Amir's father's servant, spend their days in the then peaceful city of Kabul, kite fighting and roaming through the streets. Amir's father, a wealthy merchant, who Amir affectionately refers to as

Baba, loves both boys, but seems critical of Amir for not being manly enough. However, he has a kinder father figure in the form of Rahim Khan, Baba's friend, who understands Amir better, and supports his interest in writing. Amir tells us that his first word was 'Baba' and Hassan's 'Amir', suggesting that Amir looked up most to Baba, while Hassan looked up to Amir.

Assef, a notorious sociopath and violent older boy, mocks Amir for socializing with a Hazara, which is, according to Assef, an inferior race that should only live in Hazarajat.

Hassan is a successful "kite runner" for Amir, knowing where the kite will land without watching it. One triumphant day, Amir wins the local tournament, and finally Baba's praise. Hassan runs for the last cut kite, a great trophy, saying to Amir, "For you, a thousand times over." Unfortunately, Hassan encounters Assef....(important part of the book)

The Kite Runner is an exciting book and that makes people think about life, enjoy reading! \o/

A Clockwork Orange: a history to help you grow up

A Clockwork Orange is a book write by the English writer Antony Burguess at 1969. It’s a old book? No. The history it´s the most actual possible: it’s a future and violent London with a population really full and some revolts adolescents.

The book tells the Alex story. Alex is a revolt adolescent (14 years old) and he have a gung, (yours three droogs: Pete, George and Dim) to make all kinds of violence (and “ultraviolences”). He kills (by accident) an old woman and is sentenced to 14 prison years. After two prison years he’s “treated” (by “The Ludovico Technique”) to be a “good” guy.

Burguess make a new language in A Clockwork Orange:  “The Nadsat”, a language used to all “nadsats” (teenagers) of book, with different “slovos” (words) and slangs. Fallowing, a part of a dialogue of the two doctors of Alex, about the language used to him:

 ““Quaint,” said Dr. Brodsky, like smiling, “the dialect of the tribe. Do you know anything of it’s provenance, Branom?”

“Odd bits of old rhyming slang,” said Dr. Branom, who did not look quite so much like a friend any more. “A bit of gipsy talk, too. But most of the roots are Slav. Propaganda. “Subliminal penetration.””

The principal reasons to A Clockwork Orange be my favorite book it’s the various debates about the right and the wrong, the good and the bad, the religion, how the society age, the claim of choices, and others polemics and important themes that help us to make opinion and grow up like   conscious citizens.

In 1971 Stanley Kubrick make a movie based in this book. It’s really good to, but it’s really better ready the book before the movie, so, you understand (real horrorshow) the real meaning of the Alex story, what is frequently confused with a history of blood, without any philosophical character.

Open your mind and go inside in A Clockwork Orange.

“And all that cal” .
