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.

Each second football player is more artist than soccer player

 Yesterday I watched to soccer from Brazil. Quarter Final Brazil vs. Chile and have to see, that each second player is more artist than soccer player. Anything referee whistled for a foul, ninety percent was badly. Everytime sinner talking, talking and talking. I nothing, it is not true, I did not touch his. Day ago I saw game about forty years old. Speed little bit less, less aggressive, less talking, more fluency. Today? On soccer have a lot of influence money.
