Eat almonds!

Chcecie się pozbyć oponki z brzucha ? Jedzcie garść migdałów dziennie.
A handful of almonds a day could be the key to a longer and shapelier life.
The nutrient-rich snack can get rid of your muffin top, give you slimmer legs and stave off heart disease by reducing cholesterol, scientists say.
And eating 42g (1.5 oz) of the superfood every day could reduce the likelihood of an early death.
Experts from Pennsylvania State University compared the diets of 52 overweight, middle-aged adults with high-cholesterol over 12 weeks.

Winter garden.

"January is the quietest month in the garden.  ...  But just because it looks quiet doesn't mean that nothing is happening.  The soil, open to the sky, absorbs the pure rainfall while microorganisms convert tilled-under fodder into usable nutrients for the next crop of plants.  The feasting earthworms tunnel along, aerating the soil and preparing it to welcome the seeds and bare roots to come."
Rosalie Muller Wright, Editor of Sunset Magazine, 1/99

To horse!

Jeśli myślicie, że słowo horse znaczy tylko koń, to jesteście w błędzie.
Horse to także:
ogier, zwierzę z rodziny koni czyli także osioł lub zebra, kawaleria, jazda, konnica, przyrząd gimnastyczny, warstwa płonnej skały w rudzie, zaprzęgać konie do wozu, siedzieć na czymś okrakiem,
nosić kogoś na barana, jechać konno, wychłostać kogoś.....
O "końskich" idiomach napiszę innym razem, ale nie odmówię sobie najsłynniejszego "końskiego" cytatu "A horse! A horse! My kingdom for a horse!" ( William Szekspir "Ryszard III")

The end of plastic bags?

Czy uda się kiedyś wyeliminować z użycia plastikowe torby? Nie jest to takie proste, bo wszyscy się do nich przyzwyczaili. Pojawił się pomysł, który z pewnością może ograniczyć ich stosowanie. Co  to takiego? Zobaczcie:

A simple set of cleverly designed reusable bags could revolutionise supermarket shopping - and mean you will never need a plastic bag again.
Trolley Bags are a system of reusable bags that fit on to shopping trolleys to help organise goods at the checkout.
In one simple action, the system spreads out and rests on any supermarket trolley giving the shopper a series of open and upright bags into which to sort their shopping.

What women will wear in 2015.

Co będzie modne w 2015? Wszystko już było, a więc będzie to powrót do lat 70-tych ubiegłego stulecia. No one can escape the 1970s in 2015. - straszy BBC.
Nie wiem czy to powód do radości czy rozpaczy. Oceńcie sami.
No one can escape the 1970s in 2015. Crushed velvet, pink psychedelic zip-up boots, long collars and gilets reminiscent of the first Woodstock were seen at Chanel, Pucci, Gucci, Sonia Rykiel and Saint Laurent, while the ultra-modern Stella McCartney produced the season’s essential item – a folk-inspired spaghetti-strapped dress. Long or short, crocheted or diaphanous, the only rule is to include all the colours of the rainbow. Bell -bottoms have also ballooned back into fashion – but tripping over them could hinder the spread of peace and love.

From Poland to Hollywood.

3 stycznia 1897 przyszła na świat Barbara Apolonia Chałupiec, znana jako POLA NEGRI. Karierę aktorską rozpoczęła w teatrze w Warszawie w 1912 roku a w 1914 zadebiutowala w polskim filmie "Niewolnica zmysłów". Trzy lata później wyjechała do Berlina, gdzie zagrała w kilku niemieckich filmach, a w 1923 roku trafiła do Hollywood i stała się gwiazdą kina niemego. Głośno było też o jej romansach z Charlie Chaplinem i Rudolfem Valentino. Była  jedyną polską aktorką, która trwale zapisała się w historii światowego kina.
Pola Negri was born in Poland and moved to Warsaw as a young child. Living in poverty with her mother, a teenage Pola auditioned and was accepted to the Imperial Ballet. Due to an illness which ended her dancing career, she soon switched to the Warsaw Imperial Academy of Dramatic Arts and became an actress. By 17, she was a star on the stage in Warsaw, but World War I would soon change the theater scene. Without the theater, Pola turned to films.

“A New Year has tiptoed in.
Let’s go forward to meet it.
Let’s welcome the 365 days it brings.
Let’s live well with love in our hearts towards God and all people.
Let’s walk through it’s corridors with praise songs on our lips.”
