Different rodents go inside, yet unique qualities of mice incorporate bite checks on wood, plastic, or cardboard; fecal droppings 1/8 to ¼ inch long; musky smell; or form run stamps along baseboards or cover (Run imprints are deserted by the grimy, slick assortment of a rodent over and again running over and over again along a made trail).

It is essential to free your home of these uninvited visitors and guarantee that your house is not accommodating or effectively approachable to them later on. House mice are not pets. Mice transmit sicknesses, reason fires by biting electrical wiring, and mice ruin sustenance, papers, space boxes, woodwork, and separation with chewing, pee, and droppings

1) Inspect your house for evidence of mouse activity. Check for the droppings, gnaw marks, and body trails.

2) Trap and free your home of mice. Cornell University proposes utilizing traps. Cornell likewise proposes setting traps inside PVC channel or espresso jars to disguise them. Keep traps securely out of span of kids and pets.

The myth of Eldorado gold live again

What is truth and what is myth in the story of the lost city of riches. Visits to the treasures that are not related to the end, but for a man to have confirmed recent research.

Times of crisis have again revived the myth of gold Eldorado. South American Indian legend, oral tradition that has assumed proportions of the myth of a lost, golden paradise, Eldorado, has led many conquistador in the rainforest and mountains of South America during the 15th and 16 century.

Their search ended in the discovery of the New World countries, but never Eldorado, and they eventually transformed a symbol of the dream of a desired but unattainable.

Recent archaeological studies, however, have cast a new light on the whole story. Confirmation that Eldorado means "golden man", not a "golden place" (sp. El indio dorado - Indian gold, sp. Dorado El Rey - The King of Gold), showed not only from the new angle of an ancient Indian beliefs, but and launched a new type of "gold rush".

The myth of Eldorado born around the 1530th in the Colombian Andes, where Gonzalo Jimenez de conquistador Quesada found Muisko Indians tribes. The story which I heard from Indian elders quickly spread and took on mythic dimensions. It was a story about the golden Eldorado man, not in gold, but its expansion and beautification transformed the myth of Eldorado, a rich kingdom, the king of gold.

The transformation of the myth the legend, the king of gold by the end of gold, had a great influence on European conquistador, especially Spaniards. Fascinated by the story, Francisco de Gonzalo Pizarro and Oreljana the 1541st led an expedition during which they did not find El Dorado, but they discovered Amazon.

Expedition 1541-1545. German Baron Philip von Hutena looking for Eldorado led him to Venezuela. In the 1569th Gonzalo Jimenez de Quesada organized the expedition that started in Bogota. English nobleman Sir Walter Rowley continued pursuit 1595, and his book is placed Eldorado somewhere along the Orinoco (Venezuela today). This place was on the cards sailors and explorers, as long as its absence did not prove Alexander von Humboldt.

Although the Spanish never found Eldorado, yet they amassed great treasures seized by the Indians of South and Central America. Gold that were taken back to Spain was so significant that shook the country's economy.

Search for Eldorado Europeans did not, therefore, would be completely without merit. Historical documents and archaeological discoveries have agreed on the usual story Musika that begins after the death of the ruler of the enthronement ceremony of the new, usually his nephew, who in a special ritual, totally naked, but covered with gold dust and gold ornate decorations, items for worship of the precious metal and gems - throwing them into the lake.

One of these sacred objects, a device with a small gold figurines, found in 1969. in a cave south of Bogota. Similar items were found in the waters of the lakes in this part of the world, which the Indians considered sacred, they found not only the specific alloy of gold Tumbaga, "tailor-made" of gold, silver and copper, but also an extraordinary technique of making Europe what that time is not known.

The notion that this nation is almost half its total gold production was offering as a gift to the gods, believing that by contributing to the harmony of society Muiska, it became the "trigger" for the invasion of Europeans in Eldorado. For the gold that Muiske watched as the spiritual value of the Europeans who went in it recognized only material value.

Desperate hunt for gold, for which they have over the centuries many of them left their lives in the South American wilderness, revived again. Former clash of civilizations around the different views on the value of gold, now turned into a battle of archaeologists who want to preserve the legacy of the ancient nation of thieves and ready for anything to get their hands on that golden treasures.   

The molten civilization

Seventies thieves they reached such quantities of gold, in northern Colombia that caused the earthquake of this metal in the market, as it sometimes happened in Spain. Most of these cases were melted, which was destroyed forever their significance valuable data about the ancient civilization. What is, however, preserved in the museums of Bogota and London, testifies not only to the beliefs of the ancients, differing views on gold, but it is also a valuable addition to the truth in the myth of Eldorado. 

Sketches more realistic then pictures

When you first look at the hyper-realistic images Dirk Dzimirsky, you are convinced that these photographs. If you look more carefully, you will see that these are works of very talented artists who use only pencils and crayons.

Dirks photos used only as inspiration for their work. He set the basic proportions and then draw until you create an incredibly realistic portraits. Mr. Dzimirsky uses light and shadow to capture facial expressions, and do not omit any tiniest detail, from pine to water droplets.

- I want to capture and describe the man and his inner world special. As detailed what the writer can use to analyze an individual, I portray not only physical characteristics, but what is more important, that the presence of the inner life-Dzimirsky says.

His paintings "catch" the light on the hair people, the shadows under his eyes, and even the raindrops that fall on their forehead. On its website says that the artist prefers to paint than to photograph because of his work draw the viewer deeper, than by staring at pictures.

- I choose instead of drawing pictures because it allows me to inflict a lot of other layers over layers of lines and dots which react to each other and all that is formed bis vibrant texture with directions and movement-said Dirk.

The artist has exhibited his works in galleries in London, Germany and America, and despite the incredible results and still says he does not want to copy photos.
- Use photos as a base, but I'm not looking for perfect reproduction. Photographers use very little when aspect is established. I usually do like to paint live models-Dzimirsky concludes.

   

Treats for wantonly rich

World contrasts, hungry or satiated not believe: the poor do not have to bread, cake serving in New York from 18,700 dollars. The most expensive 800 euros tiny cookies, hamburger less than 300.

Yes, the food is more expensive, but some people just do not care for it.

They do not have the appetite while looking after the tripe in sauce yellow menu: instead, you shall request "extravagant burger" from the Japanese "wagyu" beef. I'll think they got through ...

And maybe it really so, since that piece of meat in a New York restaurant "Serendipity 3" costs "only" 293 dollars. And for lunch, I could soup in London, as already practiced by many wealthy to "plunge" between the two cities and several times a week.

The magic fluid in the London café "Kai Mayfair" is called "Buddha jumps over the wall." Ingredients: shark tails, sea snails, mushrooms "Japanese flower", sea cucumber, dried clams, chicken, cooked ham from the Chinese province of Hunan, pork and ginseng. Price: 108 pounds.

All that you recommended Bi-Bi-lightening section for travel. And, far from being expensive entree to break down some of the "slum" dry walnut cookies or pies. A quick trip to the Middle East, there are good tufahije, and dessert for the local CSD 3676, approximately 800 euros. These are the most expensive small cookies in the world, and make them edible leaves of 23-carat gold, pretty gold dust and organic strawberries.

Asia takes precedence over the map education

Asia takes over the United States and Europe primacy in higher education. In 2020. year, 40 percent of graduates from China and India.

MAP of Education, the rapidly changing appearance.

As a mirror of economic power, the universities in the United States, Western Europe, Japan and Russia have dominated the prestige in the world after World War II. The economic rise of Asia, particularly China and India is rapidly changing the established order. To 2000. U.S. and China are to equalize the number of graduates, India caught up with Japan. By the end of the first decade of this century, four out of ten students in the world come from China and India.

Prediction of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) in Paris said that 40 percent of over 200 million graduates aged between 25 and 34 2020. coming from the two countries, each with over one billion inhabitants. Only China will provide 29 percent of graduates in 2010, five times more than the previous decade, while in India and the United States to come 12 or 11 percent of the graduates.

U.S. citizens and the EU will do little more than a third of young people academically educated people in OECD countries and the Group of 20 most developed countries and those in the fast-rising - the organization said that comprises 34 industrialized countries in the world.

The share of the U.S., until recently, unquestioned power of the university, dropped from 17 in 2000. to 14 percent in 2010 and is expected to 2020th sink at the 11 If this trend continues, the number of college-educated people ages 25 to 34, from Argentina, Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, Russia, Saudi Arabia and South Africa will be nearly 40 percent higher than the number of people from all OECD countries by 2020 notes OECD spokesman Spencer Wilson. Brazil would, as anticipated, could have more graduates than Germany, Turkey more than Spain, Indonesia three times more than France.
The migration of knowledge, with the rapid development of technology, however, gives rise not only a new world university ranking, but it changes the way of studying. While China and India are steadily taking over, the fact remains that these and other countries that provide an increasing number of graduates, rely on Western standards, so the scientists noticed that the big question is whether the Chinese experts will be able to create new models.
Meanwhile, American universities are trying to put technology at the service of attracting students. This fall, more than one million students participate in an experiment which, estimated to be able to influence changes in the study.
Distance learning is not new, but now some of the major American universities such as Harvard and MIT, offer online courses. These two universities were linked in the project worth 60 million dollars, the program "Edeks" that offers an interactive "virtual" courses available to computer users anywhere in the world, free of charge, entrance exams, at least in this, the experimental phase.
Entering "heavyweights" in the arena of internet-study could, experts note, that a turning point. For now, priority is given to studying "eye to eye", but the emergence of new technological resources, as well as materials for study in digital form, creating not only changed the geography of higher education, but to displace the "virtual sphere". The trend is certain, given that, according to the OECD, since 1998. by 2008. employment in the field of science and technology grew at a faster pace than total employment.

THREE WAYS OF THINKING

Chinese students are highly placed in the prestigious OECD test - "writing" that measures skills in reading, mathematics, science. Andreas Schleicher, responsible for this test, notes that in China an impressive school buildings, unlike the West where they are typically shopping centers. Cultural differences, he said, reflecting on students thinking about how success in school. In the United States considered that it was "a matter of pure luck and talent." In Europe, they say it is a matter of family tradition. In China, most people think that success depends only on the effort.   

Instructions for the encounter with the aliens

UN made ​​instructions on how to behave when people encounter with aliens. Astronauts believe that there are sentient beings. Padalka: And the other planets are inhabited, will meet the "brethren according to knowledge."

ONE of the most experienced Russian cosmonaut Gennady Ivanovich Padalka (54) surprised the public by saying that the astronauts' get instructions on how to behave in case of encounters with aliens. "Apparently, the Chinese have made ​​with the UN rules on how they should behave in this case.

In America, the place Koroljov, the question of how Chinese journalists are Russian cosmonauts are ready to meet with aliens, Padalka said for that, "there are instructions." Padalka, who is eight times the open space, the hero of the Russian Federation, said it "believes that the other planets inhabited humans sooner or later encounter with the 'brothers according to knowledge.'"


Astronauts often speak of the strong flashes of light that they see them, although their eyes closed. The first of it, after the flight to the moon in 1969, told Edwin Aldrin and Neil Armstrong. In the NASA concluded that astronauts see rapid cosmic rays. However, it does not explain why astronauts feel uncomfortable.

Cosmonaut Alexander Serebrov says that doctors can not lie to the preparation of all astronauts. The American astronaut Edgar Mitchell claims that things happen in space "that we can not, at least for now, we understand."

Test pilot Marina Popovich, who has talked with many Russian astronauts, said that many came back with a lot of uncertainties and doubts. The leading scientific associate of the center for mental health of the Russian Academy of Sciences Vladimir Vorobjov points out that strange sensation that astronauts have no cause for fear for their pleasure.

Yuri Gagarin was after a concert band that played on electric instruments, said it was similar music "heard" during my stay in space. And Alexei Leonov, who first came out in open space, said there was at satellite also heard some strange music. Cosmonaut Vladislav Volkov says he is seeing on the ground and heard the dogs barking, and then the crying child.

Astronauts experience are different, but no one called hallucinations. Some call it "the effect of Solaris," some argue that it is "the materialization of human thought."

Russian biophysicist Alexander Pressemane proved that electromagnetic energy is greater than three thousand megahertz block the arms and legs, and since waves affect endocrine processes biopotential brain and may cause feelings of fear.
Alexander Serebrov flew in space four times. The first summer he accidentally dropped a magnet and began to behave strangely, even though it took to float like all objects in weightlessness. Inside the spacecraft, therefore, there is a strong magnetic field, depending on the position of aircraft. Serebrov story to a magnet attract objects in shadow, and rejected them when it was sunny.
- When he took off Serebrov fourth time in 1993, he managed to persuade those responsible to set the accessories that have shown that the magnetic field strength in some parts of the spacecraft changed 16 times during the day. The largest anomalies were in commander cabin. Cables were passed over the head commander of spacecraft Ciblijeva Basil, who had a very restless sleep, teeth creaked, he shouted and jerks. His dream was the peace of mind when he turned his head toward the floor. Ciblijev dreamed and argued that what dreams he had never seen in my life. Experts have argued that such a dream is possible because of the strong magnetic field.
Professor of the Moscow Aeronautical Institute Burdakov Valery says that a man in orbit, in a state of severe emotional stress, may lose control of the situation.
- They told me about how astronauts are at some point wanted to leave without helmeted in open space or space ship changes course, believing that it is in their vital interest. Only the strong will be saved by the mindless process - explains Burdakov.
Shock - Small Earth

Head of the Institute of psychophysiology medical-biological changes of the Russian Academy of Sciences Yuri Bubejev explains that "the psychoemotional status of astronauts is very complex." The highlight is when seen from space as a small country and it causes severe stress. This condition says Bubejev, can be called "spiritual awakening". The phenomenon has yet to be investigated. 

CONVINCED

Double-Soviet hero Georgi Mikhailovich Grechko (81) has repeatedly said he is convinced that aliens are long and many times came to Earth. Grechko as a young engineer working on the preparation of the first flight into space, and later took off and I 1975th He was also a candidate for the Russian crew that was scheduled to fly to the moon. - I'd like to meet with the aliens. I am interested in looking their spacecraft. Is it really as a flying saucer, as we imagine - Grechko said. 

The average citizen of planet earth weighs 62 kilograms

Most Americans are obese, because they seem as if the planet has a billion more people. The nations that spend a lot of driving cars and so few calories to get fat.

If all the people in the world were like the Americans, the planet would be "made​​" that lives on it almost a billion more people. All this because the average American is much heavier than the other inhabitants of the country. U.S. citizens on the infamous list of water treatment period. North America settled by six per cent of world population, but a third of the total biomass, and due to all - obesity. In Asia, by comparison, 61 percent of the population living world, but they "waste" only 13 percent of the biomass.

The report of the journal "BMC Public Health" from last week, based on data from the World Health Organization, said that, if the world is so "americanize" all start to look identical to U.S. residents, the effect was the same as if the the earth has settled 935 million people of average weight. The energy requirements would increase the planet for 473 million adults.

Earth currently has a population of seven million people. The average human weighs 62 kilograms, but there are regional differences very large: The average size of the population of Asia is 57.7 pounds, while North Americans - even 80.7 pounds. Americans are constantly stretch "in width": 2030. year, 42 percent of the nation will be obese!

A study published in the journal mentioned, unlike some older, when the level of energy use in a country measured solely in relation to the number of residents, and to account for their profession. Logically - as obese need more energy to function.

- Imagine three people in the room and that they spend a certain amount of energy. If they are overweight by any chance, it is the same as that in room four. The "extra" people require additional energy for cooking, for its transportation, creating more waste ... - Said Dr. Richard Bergman, researcher Sidars-Sinai hospital in Los Angeles.

The consumer society that has allowed Americans to "multiply", and by natural growth. More energy, more food, more trash - happy energy, food, recycling industry ... But, everything is connected and "going in circles." The bad habits (rich) man to "just around the corner" go by car, returned to haunt his health and the line.

Large average body weight of the U.S. population, but also the rich Arab countries, one of the authors of the study, Professor Ian Roberts, associated with a high degree of motorization, conditioned among other things, cheap gasoline:

- One of the most important factor is the heavy weight of cars by the "head" people - says Professor Roberts. - In some countries people eat but little move, because all are going by car.
