Two celebrities who surprised me recently

Who are they? Tina Karol with her extremly interesting clip where she is naked but you can really see anything provocative! There you go:

And than Richard Gere who is quite old now, but still shocks public, this time Indian. So there is a huge scandal now and he can even be sent to a jail for 3 months. Everything due to this provocative kiss:)
Have a nice Sunday!

2:8

Belarus' Oleg Antonenko, right, and Ladislav Smid of the Czech Republic struggle for the puck during their World Ice Hockey championship match in the town of Mytischi, outside Moscow, Friday, April 27, 2007. (AP Photo/Dmitry Lovetsky) Aleh Antonenka is still my today's hero, but it doesn't make it easier. It is such a pity, that we lost with such a score. Belarus against Czech Republic - 2:8. I would say shame, but Czechs were second last year and we were sixth. On the other had our ice hockey team had a whole year to improve;) Well, good luck to them for the next games!

Kissinger vs Putin

The author of one of my favorit book (Diplomacy) and a former U.S. secretary of state (from 1973 to 1977) met with Putin today.
Kissinger, who is also head of his own international consultancy, said President George W. Bush and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice had approved the idea, and called on the international community to treat Russia as an equal partner, which, he said, is what Putin is trying to attain.
So there you go:
Russia and the United States are forming a working group that will focus on the future of bilateral relations and will be co-chaired by a former Russian premier and an ex-U.S. secretary of state.

International monetary economics reflexions

I ask myself why I like courses about International monetary economics and banking... Due to practical implementation? Because I was always lucky with my teaches. Maybe in a way.

But it's also very intersting to be able to predict what will happen next. In our last class we've learned that you need to know only exchange rates of two currencies and interest rates in both countries in order to predict expected changes.

As there is never a one hundred per cent certainty in those predictions (one best possible predictions as they are named), I do admire people who predict the trends in global futures for example quite correctly and most of the times.

It becomes even more complicated and itersting when you deal with the shares, or you participate in forex trading. Sure you can start with some 250$ (for example, Global Futures Exchange & Trading Co., Inc. can help to start trading with these money at the beginnin). No doubt, one risks, but who can risk can always gain the most.

26th of April

This day is really important for every Belarusian person. In the 1986th there was Chernobyl explosion, and 70% of radiation landed on Belarusian grounds. It is a sad day, it's day of national tradegy and day to remember about those who died and about our future life an a better world.

IT in our everyday life

Today I was thinking about information technologies. Sometimes we just accept what we have and we don't really worry about all the ways some particular thechnologie came through to reach us.

Personally, I get most of the information I need online: news, facts, references and reviews, information for my research paper... So only when one looses for a moment our possibility to use this modern technology (Internet here), one realises how dependent he/she is and how important it is.

Nowadays, many people speak about mobility, independence, fast way of leaving. And of course the producers of "the modern technologies" try to adapt. Only 7 years ago I could not imagine how laptop looks like. Only 2 years ago I've started profiting from WiFi. And what now? Now I am so used to it that I start to panic when for some reason connection disappears. Wireless Networking took an inmortant place in my life: at work, at university, even sitting in a cafe... For example, some my friends in the academy from time to time have to seat on the corridor in order to use their laptops being connected to the WiFi network. Actually, I don't know the reason of those troubles, but it could be some effects of interference from other devices (there are special spectrum analyzer tools to check it). So they really feel on their own skin how it feels to be left without a connection.

Maybe it is a bit ridiculous, but still the efficiency of my work depends on the working conditions and the efficiency of Internet connection for examle. And I would not be able to write these lines if our Network would stop working. So, guys, have a fast and stable connection!

I am still an optimist!

Despite all negative news I read everyday I always find some which are rather inspiring. These days there were two:) First, EC finally got an answer from our governement (EC sent its request in 2005), EC is allowed to open office and official representation in Belarus! That's cool, but as my friend said, let's see how long it will take. Anyway, it's a progress! Next a chief assistent of the state secretary of the USA David Kramer (I am not sure about the spelling) visited Belarus and even met with our officials. It's funny that he was asked to meet with Piatkevich, who is very strong woman and our president advicer. Actually, I am not 100% sure that it's a good sign, but at least some changes! Therefore, let's keep being optimistic and enjoy the spring weather;)

Belisi style online!


Few months ago, I wrote about this designer. Belisi is a designer (almost wrote web-designer! I have to be careful, but it's a result of my Inet addiction:). He is for the nice look using interesting accessories.

Recently, Belisi decided to creat a new space for his designs (this time I could write web as it's online!). He created a profile on Stylehive. Therefore now you can find info about his designs and about designers HE likes. It's quite interesting to see.

As he believes accessories provide the final touch to any cloth (especially if you do it in a right way). So you final look will be really impressive. His Brand was founded to bring the utmost luxury to this beautiful world!

How many children has Belarusian president?

After a press conference given to Belarusian mass media it became quite clear! He has 3!!! Though everyone knew only about 2! It's amazing!

Just exhausted

I have a feeling that I am not able to do anything except dreanking coffee and chatting with friends. I am really exhausted after my today exam of Evolution of international systems in the period of 1789-1945. It was really tricky, I guess our teacher decided to take revanch after all. But it doesn't make it better... Well, I hope my grade will be better than I expect it to be:D LOL!

Cosy kitchen

I wonder when finaly I will have my own kitchen with a big appartment added to it:) hmm, it would be cool. Though at the moment I have only one room with old window and strange colour curtains.

When I have to go to the corridor where we have a tiny kitchen I dream about other one:) Just imagine nice and cosy, with colourful window and with roman blinds as on the picture. What was its name? Oh, yeah, "A suede look Roman Blind", still looking modern, in a striped beige/coffee colour. Chic! It would be place where I could enjoy cooking (!!!) and drinking tee or coffee with my friends.

Inet users in Belarus

I was wondering about a number of Inet users in Belarus yesterday. There are different statistics... Today I found a news with a number of 32.5% of adults in Belarus. Actually, it seems to be a real number. So there is a positive trend!

News which my friends brought

During these days I've met many of my old friends. And it's really sad now to go back to my studies. One more thing is sad, actually. Many of my friends told me about different signs that our whole system is going to collaps. On the one hand it's quite good, as there will be political changes. But on the other... when I start thinking about our whole economy, people, parties... there are sooooo many difficulties to be overcome. So, let's be brave, creative and persistent!

- Zyvie Belarus (Long live Belarus)!

The RIGHT man! Check it out online;)

I guess every girl knows at least one story when some guy was cheating on her or her friend. I know many, as it happens quite often, unfortunately. That's why I was really curious about site with title World's Largest Database Rating Abusive and Cheating Men. Well, I've checked my ex-boyfriend there, and he was not there. Good start! Then I checked randomly some other friends, but none of them is there! So maybe it's a good sign! You can check yourself! ... and good luck. NB: just keep in mind - whatever will be the result, truth is somewhere inbetween;)

More marketing ideas

As I started to write about marketing campains, I will write about my last trip experience. On the way to Belgium we stopped in Germany several times. At one the stations there was a special system which I liked especially. Why? Hmm, it's fun, easy and working. During stops many people visit WC, it's not a secret, of course. There you had to pay 50 euro cents. Not very cheap, but not really expensive either. So you pay. And you get a special ticket which is also your credit to buy sth in a nearby restaurant or bar! Bien sur, everyone is motivated 'not to loose' 50 cents and (!) spend MORE money! It's really tricky and it's really working:)))

Let's keep shopping!

Again and again, I see that people really love getting discounts and promo products! At least I do, especially when it's something I really want to buy! So recently I went to a shop in the city and bought few things for example. But what I enjoy the most is On-line shopping! And naturally with online promotions and online coupons! For example, there is one which I might use, it's snapfish promotion with free photo prints, so I can really take advantage and print lots of photos! Actually, they are quite active in promotion campains and it's cool as customers love it!
