The biggest mosquito in the world.

Straszne komarzysko grasuje w Chinach. Jest większe od ludzkiej dłoni. Potwór! 

Nobody likes being bitten by mosquitoes - certainly not by this one. 

An insect expert claimed to have caught the world's largest mosquito with an astonishing 11.15cm (4.4in) wing span - about 10 times longer than that of an average mosquito.

The massive insect was caught on Qingcheng Mountain in south-west China's Sichuan Province. The mosquito was discovered by Chinese entomologist Zhao Li during a field inspection in August, 2017.  

Mr Zhao told MailOnline the insect belonged to a species called holorusia mikado, which is the world's largest mosquito species originating in Japan. 

When he first caught the mosquito, he thought it was extraordinarily big. However, he has only recently confirmed it to be the largest mosquito in the world.

We are your friends - T-mobile advert.

O reklamach T-mobile pisałam już kiedyś.(https://englishpleaseee.blogspot.com/2015/11/t-mobile-advert.html)
Głównym ich atutem jest wykorzystanie wpadających w ucho piosenek. Tak też jest w ostatnim spocie reklamowym z udziałem Doroty Wellman
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tl38Mw5z4Xs
gdzie w tle słyszymy "We Are Your Friends" francuskiego  duetu  Justice.
 ( Remix nagrania Never Be Alone brytyjskiej grupy Simian z 2003 roku). Videoklip piosenki zdobył w 2006 nagrodę MTV.
Tekst utworu jest niezwykle prosty:

Because we are your friends

You'll never be alone again

Well come on

Well come on

Well come on

Well come on

Because we are your friends

You'll never…

Vacations from FB?

Chcielibyście odpocząć od facebooka ? Głupie pytanie !  Jeśli jednak się zdecydujecie na 5- dniowy urlop, będą z tego same pożytki dla zdrowia ( tak twierdzi Daily Mail).... No, nie wiem.....

Taking a five-day break from Facebook reduces people's stress levels, new research suggests.

Abstaining from the social-media site lowers the amount of the stress-hormone cortisol people produce, a study found.

Yet, the benefits may not be clear cut, with people reporting a reduced sense of wellbeing after not visiting the website for less than a week, with many being happy to check in again, the research adds.

Researchers believe quitting Facebook enables people to escape an overload of information but also cuts them off socially.  

They wrote: 'Our results suggest that the typical Facebook user may occasionally find the large amount of social information available taxing and Facebook vacations could ameliorate this stress - at least in the short term.'
