Big shame.... I am sorry, Brazil, fans
Today morning one customer told me. "Incredible. Germany beat Brazil 7:1." It is not possible, I thought. Probably I bad heard. Two minutes later I heard everything of radio. Shock which sounds incredibly. Brazil wanted win all tournament. Brazil is playing home, before their fans. Brazil, where football is religion. Now? Big shame and only words - I am sorry, Brazil, fans. This result is the worst in Brazilian historii and this result can be the biggest sport suprise for this year!

More women headed...
More women in politics? More women in management companies? More women in sport clubs?
This is questions, that is not only lone cry once in a while. In the Czech republic exist Forum 50 Percent - fifty percent women in politics, same number of men. Is this idea correct? Ten people, ten answers :-)
Similar idea live is in Australia. Specifically in NRL. For example SEA Eagles from Northen Beaches in Sydney. "SEA Eagles board members Julie Sibraa and Kerry Chrysiliou have become two of the hottest properties in the NRL." This is title from article, which you can read to Daily Telegraph.

United Nations 2014 World Drug Report shows Australians are the biggest drug users in the world
This news is suprise for me. Astralians and drugs? They are very close. Country where are famous surfers has darker pages too. According study more than ten percent people between 16 and 65 aged use cannabis and 2.1 percent use cocaine. "People on one hand have more money to spend and on the other there are more people who are at risk — and those that are at risk are getting worse because of high unemployment, poor job prospects, lack of optimism,’’ Dr Wodak told The Daily Telegraph.

Pizza battle
Competition on market is good, pushing to price and customers can be happy. For example: Pizza from fast food is very popular and cheaper then in classical restaurant. It is nice. Maybe. Certainly don't for 100 percent.
You can buy Domino's pizza for $4.95. Few days ago followed similar propagation and price competition from Pizza Hut. Price going down, customer can pay less money. Is now customer happy? Part of them yes, part do not. You can read comments below article on Daily Telegraph.
