Energy drinks: a risk for the teenagers

I'm sure that a lot people had already try the energy drinks and some are addict of it, just because we are in an old where we spend a lot of our energy and we need to be always on the top. For that we have discovered a solution and this are the energy drinks. But what we really know about it kinds of products?

Health researchers have identified a surprising new predictor for risky behaviour among teenagers and young adults: Super-caffeinated energy drinks, with names like Red Bull, Monster, Full Throttle and Amp, have surged in popularity in the past decade. About a third of 12-to 24-year-olds say they regularly down energy drinks

The trend has been the source of growing concern among health researchers and school officials. Around the country, the drinks have been linked with reports of nausea, abnormal heart rhythms and emergency room visits.

kuerten says farewell to the tennis


He is known universally as 'Guga' and beloved by fans worldwide as much for his frizzy hair, big smile and engaging personality as for his three French Open titles. It is the first South American man to ever rank year-end Number 1 will proposed farewell to the sport and tennis at Roland Garros.

Kuerten is a real challenger, he had started his career when he was just 18 and then he multiplied victories. By then the tennis world had fallen in love with the richly gifted player, a colorful and exciting personality.

Kuerten regained his crown as the unrivalled master of European clay-courts with victory over Swede Magnus Norman in the 2000 Roland Garros final, when his demoralizing power and divine touch helped him secure his second title on his 11th match point.


Twelve months later he drew a heart on the clay of Philippe Chatrier Court when he became only the fourth player since the Second World War to win the most mentally demanding of all the Grand Slams more than twice.


Again, as in 1997 and 2000, he dedicated each of his triumphs to his father, Aldo, who died while umpiring a junior match when Kuerten was eight years old in 1985. In November 2007 his achievements would once again be tempered by the loss of his greatest supporter: his brother Guilherme, who suffered from cerebral palsy.

In 2000 he launched the Guga Kuerten Institute that helps the handicapped and provides support for projects that promote the integral development of children and adolescents through sporting activities. The Institute has assisted more than 25,000 people in Santa Catarina and has raised more than $2 million.

Today Kuerten is revered by a sports mad nation in the same light as the late Formula One racing driver Ayrton Senna.

The most beautiful dresses, the most beautiful dinner-jacket are this years in the prestigious Festival of Cannes. On the top ten of the most glamour stars in the festival of Cannes are:

One of the events of this Cannes film festival did not take place in cinemas, but on the red carpet! Women who waits for twins is absolutely sublime.
Not evident to get dressed when we wait for two babies... Nevertheless, Angie took up the challenge easily with this green dress very elegant woman Max Azria Atelier. What high-octane gasoline mum, this Angelina!







The sexy "Desperate Housewife" was on the croisette without her Tony Parker of love to play the ambassadresses L' Oréal. And least that we can say, it is that she played the game of the glam ' profoundly!
Enter white froufouttée dress and turquoise blue dress for dragnet Versace Couture and jewels Van Cleef and Arpels, Eva set fire to the red carpet!











The siren of Bollywood, Aishwarya Rai, an actrice who I really like, came to the arm of her husband, the actor Abhishek Bachchan, to the first one of the film of Woody Allen, Vicky Cristina Barcelona.
She takes a pink dress fuschia satiny, dress handkerchief in the hand and the brown buckles skilfully tamed, the ambassadress of The Oréal is to fall!

Criminal minds



If you're an addict of the suspense drama and disturbing stories, so you have to watch Criminal minds, this series it's about an elite squad of FBI profilers analyze the country's most twisted criminal minds, anticipating their next move before they strike again. Each member of the "mind hunter" team brings their own area of expertise to the table as they pinpoint predators' motivations and identify their emotional triggers in order to stop them.

it's principal objective it's to catch the most dangerous serial killers, for that, some have the capability to read in there mind just analysing how they talk, which kind of activities they do. So in this team we can find different character who gives it proper knowledge.

This American series was created by Jeff Davis and produced by Peter McIntosh.

In the casting, we can find Mandy Patinkin (Jason Gideon) he is the boss, the man who have always right and good instinct, Thomas Gibson ( Aaron Hotchner) the most serious one, Lola Glaudini ( Elle Greenway) and Shemar Moore (Derek Morgan) are the two character who act on the terrain , Matthew Gray Gubler (Spencer Reid) he is the younger and he's sometimes disturbing by the cruelty of the criminal, Andrea Joy Cook (Jennifer Jareau) who is the press attaché, she is the person who makes conferences to gave information to the population about the profile of the criminal and Kirsten Vangsness (Penelope Garcia) the expert on computing.

Well I really like this series because you can never know who is the real criminal until the end and because it shows what are happen in the world, in every beginning of an episode the main character cite a famous sentence told by different philosophers or personalities who had impressed the history and they sometimes make us think about the situation of the world and our strange mind.

The pianist

Today in history we've started to what the film The Pianist, because we are studding about the second World War and about the nazism, so the teacher keep this movie, which I never have the opportunity to see, Today we've only see a part of it and honestly there were some scene that make me really upset, next to the violence with which the nazis had treat the Jewish.

There were two scene which distress me, the first one was a little boy who tried to returned to the ghetto where was put the Jewish with a peace of bread. The boy was trying to enter by a little hole to avert that the SS see him, but they have seen him and hit him at the back the boy was suffering pain until they break his back.

The second one happened too in the ghetto, where during the night a group of Nazi police enter to a home of the last floor, when they entered to the house all the family wake up except the old one who was paralyzed, so the police keep him and through him out from the window, after that the Nazi order the family to go out and to run while the police shut them like if they were like animals.

Honestly I couldn't stay unblinking next to the brutality of these scene, just to imagine that this kind of torture had existed make me sick, sometimes we can't imagine that a human can commit this kind of atrocities.

Death

I'm a girl who fear some things like everybody in this life, but the thing that afraid me a lot is the death, I don't mean that I'm afraid by my death, I'm afraid by the death of some of my family or my friends, it's something that I can't stand and I think that a lot of people feels the same.

When something so horrible like the death happen for example one of your friends, like it happened to me 1 year ago, it just impossible to continue your daily life like you used to do before, it something that affect you in the negative form, because we can do nothing next to this fact, we are just weak and these are the moments where we really realize that our life stand by just one wire. this are unfortunately the rules of the game but sometimes it can be unfair because I get the feeling that it's always the nice people who leave us first and let our hearts break for ever.

I'm angry about my self because I could do much better than this.
