Maybe it would be easier to vote for Hillary Clinton if she wasn't such an insistently unconvincing liar. Bill Clinton used lies the way Van Gogh used yellow, to intensify and transcend reality. Hillary's lies are shameless and strident and form not so much an argument as a cascading aural sludge pile. Most Sanders' supporters, armed with facts but not hip waders, are forced to back slowly away from her speeches lest the rising effluent suck them down to the cretinous levels of centrists, neoliberals, and Joan Walsh.

Лекарственные растения используются для лечения органов дыхания на протяжении многих веков. Это эффективный и одновременно щадящий метод. Суть лечения лекарственными растениями заключается во введении в организм биологически активных веществ в их естественном виде. Для профилактики и лечения заболеваний часто используют многокомпонентные сборы - ведь каждое лекарственное растение обладает своим действием: антибактериальным, противовоспалительным, отхаркивающим, разжижающим мокроту и т.д.

Success is a fascinating paradox; we can be all-consumed by our quest to achieve it without even fully comprehending what 'it' is.

Striving for success and improvement is in the very essence of our human nature; but every single day I meet ambitious, hardworking women who feel they have done everything 'right' to be successful in their careers, and yet still find themselves asking, 'is this IT?!'

Perhaps you can also relate to the frustration of feeling like you have ticked all the boxes... Читать дальше...

MÉDIAS - Comme on pouvait -malheureusement- s'y attendre, la venue de Pamela Anderson à l'Assemblée nationale a provoqué une mini émeute de journalistes entre les murs du Palais Bourbon. Mais si l'on est plus ou moins habitué à assister à des scènes de cohues lors d'événements très médiatiques, voir un journaliste s'en prendre physiquement à des confrères en plein travail est bien plus rare (et vraiment désolant).

Comme l'ont immortalisé les caméras du Petit Journal, un journaliste de France... Читать дальше...

Nasa is exploring how caring for plants and flowers may help improve feelings of isolation and stress that can be a part of a long-duration mission in space.

Des heurts ont brièvement éclaté mercredi soir au niveau de la rocade portuaire de Calais entre plusieurs centaines de migrants et des forces de l'ordre qui ont tiré de nombreux lacrymogènes pour rétablir la situation, a constaté un correspondant de l'AFP.
Ces incidents surviennent après que la préfecture du Pas-de-Calais a fixé un ultimatum qui expirait en début d'après-midi aux derniers migrants pour quitter une bande de 100m déboisée de la "Jungle" le long de la rocade par mesure de sécurité. Читать дальше...

For years, super-fans of Quentin Tarantino have put all his work under a microscope and come to the theory that his films exist within the same world.

And it turns out they’re right.

From Uma Thurman’s character in “Pulp Fiction,” Mia Wallace, explaining the plot of “Fox Force Five" — which is essentially the same as “Kill Bill" — to characters in different films being related — like Vic Vega in “Reservoir Dogs” and Vincent Vega in “Pulp Fiction" — the connections among Tarantino films are deep.

The plunge in commodity prices is bad for energy- and metals-sector high-yield bonds. But it’s positive for the majority of issuers. That’s why we expect only a modest rise in the average default rate in 2016.

Sure, defaults among oil, coal and other commodity companies could add up pretty quickly over the next couple of years. These issuers have been hurt by multi-year lows in oil, coal, copper and other commodities and decreased demand from China. Many energy-sector... Читать дальше...

It is safe to say that college students are often sleep-deprived. Health experts recommend that we should be getting 7 to 9 hours of sleep every night, but sometimes that may seem impossible. From the demands of every-day life, to balancing classes, work, and studying, your schedule may not allow you to get the proper amount of sleep that you need. Although napping is by no means a replacement for sleep, it can help make up for lost hours and improve your mental and physical functions.
