Virus Found!

What do when your computer gets a virus? Delete the infected information? Get in panic?
Well, the best way is to have a antivirus, it means, have a program to exam and destroy any type of infection or worm.
Virus is a program who may copy itself, and infest the whole computer, delete or damage some programs, virus can infiltrate in the computer without your permission. Viruses can increase their chances of spreading to other computers by infecting files on a network file system or a file system that is accessed by another computer. The term "computer virus" is sometimes used as a catch-all phrase to include all types of malware. Malware includes computer viruses, worms, Trojan horses, most root kits, spyware, dishonest adware, crime ware, and other malicious and unwanted software), including true viruses. Viruses are sometimes confused with computer worms and Trojan horses, which are technically different. A worm can exploit security vulnerabilities to spread itself to other computers without needing to be transferred as part of a host, and a Trojan horse is a program that appears harmless but has a hidden agenda. Worms and Trojans, like viruses, may cause harm to a computer system's hosted data, functional performance, or networking throughput, when they are executed. Some viruses and other malware have symptoms noticeable to the computer user, but many are surreptitious.
Most personal computers are now connected to the Internet and to local area networks, facilitating the spread of malicious code.
The first virus apparition was in the 70s, since that time, they have modify and get more and more dangerous e difficult to remove, but the antivirus, our weapons against those evil and malicious stuffs, have also evolve, creating new ways to search and destroy the virus and spywares.
Been a virus, a Trojan Horse, adware or worm, the safe way is and will always be, to have a Firewall and a antivirus and any other program like this.

Human Cloning?

Although the possibility of cloning human beings has been the subject of speculation for much of the twentieth century, scientitists and policy makers began to take the prospect seriously in the 1960s. Nobel Prize winning geneticist Josuha Ledesber g advocated for cloning and genetic engineering in a seminal article in the American Naturalist in 1966 and again, the following year, in the Washington Post. He sparked a debate with conservative bioethicist Leon Kss, who wrote at the time that "the programmed reproduction of man will, in fact, dehumanize him." Another Nobel Laureate, Jmes Watson, publicized the potential and the perils of cloning in his Atlantic Monthly essay, "Moving Toward the Clonal Man", in 1971.
Scientists can now clone animals like sheep,cows,pigs,cats or horses and it is tecnally possible to clone people.

Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS)

At least 8 in each 10 women have the Premenstrual Syndrome, the PMS.
PMS is a collection of physical, emotional and psychological symptoms that usually appear 1 or 2 weeks before the menstrual cycle and that generally disappear when the menstrual flow starts.
There are more than 150 symptoms related, and the most common are abdominal bloating and camps, stress, anxiety, headache, acne and mood swings.
And there are lots of kinds of PMS too, like the anxious, the stressed, the candies compulsive and the fat one.
Some food can help decreasing or rising the PMS. You should avoid: sugar, fat, alcohol and salt.
And you must eat several times a day, in small portions to reduce the will of eating candies and heavy food.

What a man should or shouldn’t say to a woman in this period:

Dangerous: What do we have to dinner?
Safe: Can I help you with the dinner?
Safer: Where do you wanna go dinner?
Ultra safe: Here, eat this chocolate.

Dangerous: Are you going to wear that?

Safer: Wow! You look like a cat!
Ultra safe: Here, eat this chocolate.

Dangerous: Why are you nervous?

Ultra safe: Here, eat this chocolate.


Dangerous: Should you be eating that?
Safe: Why don’t you eat an apple?

Ultra safe: Here, eat this chocolate.

Dangerous: What did you do all day long?
Safe: I hope you haven’t work too much today.
Safer: I love when you wear those pajamas!
Ultra safe: Here, eat this chocolate.

So, men, take care with us, we can be dangerous in this period. ;)

Music

The music is a way to calm the people and demonstrate what they are feeling. When you are sad, there are songs to accommodate themselves so sad and happy when there are songs to show that joy.
The music is a way of talking about love, the emotions, of revolt, of the ways to change the world and more. The music may be the strength to express what is felt and if you feel.
Was confirmed through studies, to sing, play or compose music, brings a great peace of mind to people. There are places that the group is singing, where people who can not sing or play and learn. The psychologists use it as a therapy for their patients and it brings much more effects than traditional treatments.
These are good things that bring the songs, in addition, we have the big "Brazilian Popular Music," which in addition to beautiful, it is quiet and true!

What Is Nanotechnology ?


A basic definition: Nanotechnology is the engineering of functional systems at the molecular or atomic scale.The word 'nanotechnology' has been popularized in the 1980's, talking about building machines on the scale of molecules. Generally nanotechnology deals with structures of the size 100 nanometers or smaller, and involves developing materials or devices within that size.

There are,second the U.S. National Nanotechnology Initiative four generations of Nanotechnology: Passive Nanostructures (2000), Active Nanostructures (2005),Systens of Nanostructures (2010)and Molecular Nanostructures(2015/2020).

There has been much debate on the future of implications of nanotechnology. Nanotechnology has the potential to create many new materials and devices with wide-ranging applications, such as in medicine, electronics, and energy production. On the other hand, nanotechnology raises many of the same issues as with any introduction of new technology, including concerns about the toxicity and environmental impact of nanomaterials.

The chocolate

Have you ever wonder why eat chocolate is so good? Well, chocolate isn't like the otter candies, the chemistry that ocurres whith it in our body is special, it produces phenylethylamine then comes the serotonin, the substance that we produce in situations of happiness. When we get sad this hormone become low in our body, that's when the biggest part of us want to eat chocolate, because it increases the production of serotonin in our organism.
The desire to eat chocolate is different of the desire to eat any other candie because when the body discovers that there is chocolate in the organism, that gives energy and relax tensions it begins to ask for more and more, that's when we have an “chocoaddicted”. If you begin to eat chocolate every day, when you stop with that you're body will be asking for more and you won't stop eating chocolate.
An study in Amsterdam, Holland, in a congress of the Cardiology European Society concluded that chocolate is the newest friend of the heart, in the chocolate are substances called flavonoids that helps to combat the oxidation of the blood circulation. The cocoa is one of the richest fonts of flavonoids, so a good chocolate becomes one of the bests anti-oxidants.
Chocolate arose in South America, where the natives used cocoa seeds like currency. The Mayas and the Aztecs used the cocoa seeds to make a drink and they called it “Xocolatl”, they used to say that cocoa came from paradise because they used to believe that it would give power and magic for who drink it.
The first chocolate house was opened in London, 1657, by a french. Untill then, chocolate was a noble product, just for the elite. The chocolate has became popular after the Industrial Revolution, when it started to be procuced in serie. In 1765, John Hanan, introduces chocolate in EUA, there he opened a chocolate factory turning chocolate popular in the all world.
Nowadays chocolate is so popular that we have movies, books and novels about it, after all who has never dreamed about that giant chocolate waterfall from “Charlie and the chocolate factory”?
