Dark cherry 

Ok, so some people love to stand up in front of a hundred people and do a presentation. They show no sign of fear, laugh naturally throughout, and think of reading from a script in the same way as they would walking outside with no trousers on. In other words, they are annoyingly good at what they do and you wish they would just fall down a man-hole cover. While they confront enormous challenges and do so with disturbing ease, Read the rest of this entry »

While you ponder your debt problems have you ever wondered what would it be like if one could travel freely in a world without borders? Most if not all countries are divided by borders. Free trade will definitely be a good thing for people who want to grow their business and to spread their products and services around the globe. Business travellers will not only take advantage of no-borders world, but the economy of each country will boom as well. Although this can be quite complicated and there may be issues that may arise because of free importation and exportation, consumers will be the ones who will get the most benefit from it.

For the leisure travellers, this is especially a treat. You do not have to have stop-overs in airports and travel freely till your heart’s content. You can travel to the north and south end and explore all possibilities of adventure and fun without thinking about the high cost of travelling. Travellers can now be at any part of the world they chose and can be part of the country they love at anytime they want without thinking about tourist visas and missing their flight schedule.

But then again, borders were there as a standard measure to divide countries for a reason. Maybe the human population is not yet ready for a world without borders as we are still at the presence of war, racial discrimination and economical and political imbalance. Perhaps this is a wishful thought for the avid travellers, but looking at it in a different perspective, there are disadvantages that we are yet to explore. We are not at this stage yet, but we are still free to travel the world with a passport and a fortune as pocket money.

Enigin says according to the British Met office there is only ten years to curb the effect of climate change! Scary thought. But wait a minute aren’t those the guys that get the weather wrong half the time? It’s now (apparently) such a science they give the weather in percentages. There’s a 15% chance of rain or a 80% chance of (especially if the suns already shining everywhere) sun. So as long as they don’t say 100% they’ve got an Read the rest of this entry »

There are times in your life that you never forget: the first time you have liposculpture surgery (so says a friend of mine…) ; your first wedding (well, assuming it doesn’t end in a horrible divorce–), your first child (so they say) and your first kiss. There are also many times you know a lot of other people will never forget, and you wish you could get inside their mind and erase that particular memory, so that it would end Read the rest of this entry »

I never liked History class much at school. It wasn’t the subject I disliked, it was more the teacher. His enthusiasm pushed us young ones away, you see (he’d often come in wearing the authentic traditional clothing from that period–). If he’d have been slightly less enthusiastic then we’d have probably been alright, but the man was frighteningly excited about war and carnage and battles (and eating the same food that the peasants used to eat). To be honest it Read the rest of this entry »

Recently a blog written by a graphic designer caught my attention. The blogger is working with a company known as Enigin PLC and the company has some brilliant plans lined up if you ask me. This particular blog post contains an example of the level of thought and understanding about the environment which the company possesses. The company is concerned about electricity consumption and awareness and plans to do something about it. Sounds like something which not everyone can come Read the rest of this entry »

This post might upset a few people. It might be the written equivalent of varicose vein removal . Especially if you have a toned body which comes from hours pumping away down at the local space-age gym–This might annoy you quite a bit–

Here we go, then: I despise gyms. Not the people, or even the gym attitude, but just the idea of gyms. The very concept goes against everything I grew up to learn.

My theory is this: we Read the rest of this entry »

I’m not really one for TV. Like Corporate Team Building events, the very concept annoys me. It’s not that there isn’t anything good on, it’s more that I dislike the way it sucks you in and you don’t even know it. Without even realizing it, people all over the world have become slaves to a flat screen. The worst thing? They see no reason to be anything else, because what is there to be? The TV, in some places, Read the rest of this entry »

We know how to eradicate lines and wrinkles using high-tech techniques. We know how to send a probe to another planet and crash it in to the surface (not that it does much good, of course, but you can’t say it isn’t an achievement). We also know how to build a machine that could potentially tell us the secrets of the galaxy, a machine that hurls particle beams in to one another so hard that some people are worried it Read the rest of this entry »

I’m warning you right now: if you possess ovaries, hair-less legs and an ability to multi-task while simultaneously using a phone, this might rub you up the wrong way. But still, it needs to be said: Leave Men alone will you? Not all men are a waste of space; some do know what an abdominoplasty is. But recently I’ve come across numerous articles stating just that. So I thought I better set the record straight, for all those men out Read the rest of this entry »
