Joel said to imprensa that isso was sacaneation. that the culpa was not of him, because the time was very bad, with a lot of perebations and it was very difficult to treinate that band of heads of bagres that only pensate in vuvuzela and vudu macumbation.
Joel said that he dont know what time he will treinate now, but he will not go to Fluminense to salvate it of the second divisation because he now make his explications in english and the time of the tricolation dont will understand his instructions from the right, from the left and from behind! But now he wants good luck to Parreira, a great friend he was esquentating the chair in the mode to be the coach of Bafana-Bafana in the next Coup. The business now is take the ball to the frent with the bensations of the Father of the Sky.

Challenge

How do you challenge yourself? Do you know it is the best (I'd dare say the only) way to avoid a lot of diseases? Do you have hobbies? Do you like board games? Do you like working out? Tell me what you like, I said like, doing to challenge yourself. Whatever it is, why don't you try doing it in English, just to add another bit of challenge? It could be very entertaining. Try it out and tell me all about your experience.
I want to challenge myself with some Tai Chi Chuan sessions, for example. Check this video out and see what I'm up to.


Join me for a Tai Chi session?

The heart has its reasons which reason does not understand

Have you ever thought about what life brings to us? Mainly, have you ever taken some time to understand how those things come to us? If we could focus on ourselves, trying to be honest with ourselves, lots of things could be so much different. What do you think about it?


I loved this video. It is food for deep thought, I believe. Check it out.


I would love to hear from you on this idea.

I am here now, trying to put down some words. I know.... everyone thinks it's not so easy to write. I have to agree. But I also know that we cannot achieve any goal if we do not put our hearts and souls onto it, and a lot of effort as well. Don't you think so?

Dropped "h" causes trouble for France's Kouchner
Mon Oct 06 19:42:54 UTC 2008
PARIS (Reuters) - A dropped 'h' landed English-speaking French Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner in trouble on Sunday after he was mistakenly quoted as saying Israel could gobble up Iran if it wanted to.
"I honestly don't believe that it will give any immunity to Iran ... because you will eat them before," Kouchner was quoted by Israel's Haaretz newspaper as saying in an interview about the possibility of Tehran gaining a nuclear weapon.
But the French Foreign Ministry issued a brief statement later saying Koucher had said 'hit' -- meaning carrying out a surgical pre-emptive strike -- rather than 'eat'.
"He regrets the unfortunate misunderstanding this phonetic confusion has caused," the ministry said.
The letter 'h' is silent in French and many French people inadvertently drop it when speaking English.
The foible gave rise to the "Allo, Allo" title of a British Broadcasting Corp television comedy about wartime France and colors the accent of the blundering Inspector Clouseau in the Pink Panther films.
