Feel free to swear if you are angry, it really helps! According to a study, the benefits of a juicy swear-word said in the right place at the right time are highly underestimated.

Is swearing reserved for men only? Apparently not! A new study shows that today women swear more than men. Modern women believe that they have just as much right to use the F-word, even in front of their kids.

They refuse to teach the kids to hold back, as long as they are careful where and when they use obscenities. And this refers to boys and girls equally. Moms believe that allowing boys to swear while teaching girls to behave ‘ladylike’ is sexist and outdated.

Women no longer sit at home knitting, waiting for their husbands, cursing quietly. Oh, no! They have superior language skills and aren’t ashamed to use them! Thank you, equal human rights fighters!

Here is why women shouldn’t give up swearing any time soon:

1. F-words are fun

Try thinking of the most creative ways to swear. Choose from vintage examples like “Sugartit” and “Holy cow”, that seem more like jokes than insults, or modern creations such as “Pis*flaps” and “Sh**bag”. You are sure to have great laughs is the process!

2. People who swear are trustworthy

People who aren’t afraid to swear openly are generally not afraid to speak up about anything. They are open-minded and brutally honest. They will say whatever is on their mind using colorful words. What better way to enrich your swear-word dictionary?

3. Swearing puts emphasis

Imagine someone leaving the door open every time they leave the room (your husband, maybe?). Saying “Could you please get the door” for a seventy-second time will be less effective than “Get the F***** door!” said only once. You get the point.

4. You’ve hurt yourself

Hurting yourself might be the most legitimate reason to let yourself loose. The world is obviously against you and should express your opinion about it. Just use the juiciest swear-word you can think of and you’ll feel better soon.

5. It’s scientifically proven

As mentioned at the beginning, scientists have confirmed that swearing is good for you. It increases muscle strength and boosts stamina. Plus, it expands your vocabulary and improves your linguistic skills. 

6. Helps you show who’s in charge

Why should you censor yourself? You can be a lady and still swear. Be a ‘controlled swearer’ and use the F-word only when appropriate. You’re an adult who knows that such words won’t work at the church. But they are certainly fit to use after hitting the staircase with your head!

Being a mother is one of the most grateful and amazing jobs (if we can call it a job) in the world. It’s rather an experience that can bring the greatest joy one can imagine. But, this joy often comes with the price of exhaustion and this is a real issue mothers are silently facing.

Parents know that for every innocent smile you get, there is at least one scary challenge accompanying it. And there are also the other household tasks and professional life, which can be overwhelming for parents. They say that you only remember the sweet moments of life after some time, but the numerous challenges that parenthood brings are difficult to face in the present and no parent is spared.

Motherhood is a privilege. It is also a selfless sacrifice in many ways and more people need to talk about this. One mother made a public step forward regarding this question. She recently reached a wide audience with a simple post about motherhood.

Bethany Jacobs used social media to reach mothers everywhere and tell them that they are not alone, although they might feel like it. The post became popular for a powerful reason. It showed all mothers that it is okay to make a break and feel down because of everything else they sacrifice and all the effort they put into being a good mother. The post also represents hope for all the future mothers, showing the way the selfless sacrifice all mothers makes everything worth it. Being totally open and direct, Bethany’s words touched many fathers around the world, who showed their support and encouragement for their wives and all mothers everywhere.

James Brooks, father of 2 girls, commented on Bethany’s post, saying that his wife has felt the same way, but that didn’t make her look bad in front of their children.

Crystal Boyko also showed his support for mothers everywhere, telling them they are enough because they are doing a tremendous job and only loving their babies is enough.

Bethany’s post united parents from USA and beyond. The message that she sent started with three words “You are enough”. In the post, she salutes all the moms who are hiding in the bathroom in order to find peace just for a short time, often crying. Many mothers who read the post recognized themselves in these sentences.

Bethany continues to explain that moms know how it is to sit in the car alone in order to eat. Indeed, people don’t realize how judgmental they can be and how negatively that can affect the other person.

Mothers know that whenever they yell at their children, they feel worse afterwards and this feeling can develop into something more with time. It can grow into feeling of unworthiness. If we all know this, we will understand why the world might seem too much to handle sometimes.

All moms who have felt lonely and depressed will understand this post and remind themselves about these words whenever they feel down because they “failed at something”.

But all moms have to realize that it’s okay to fail sometimes. It’s okay to order pizza over and over again instead of cooking dinner. They are enough, they are important, they are worthy.

As Bethany writes, this is just a phase and it will end, no matter how hard, challenging and crazy it is. Because it will be worth it in the end.

Continue to do your best because your children think of you as someone perfect and they know that you are more than enough. For them, you are the strongest and you can conquer the world. For them, you are more than enough.

“You. Are. Amazing.”

The percentage of counterfeit currency is increasing at alarming rates. It is a serious issue and must be dealt at every level. Detecting a counterfeit bill is now easier as compared to early days.

Astonishing as it is, the amount of counterfeit money generated through computer systems, in circulation accounts for over 45% and this number is still rising.

With the help of advance Technology, counterfeit pens or it would be correct to say counterfeit detection pens are now available for your help.

These counterfeit pens are an easy way to check bills and find out the authenticity of a bill presented to you. In this article, you will read about five essential things you must know about these counterfeit detection pens. 

1. What is a counterfeit detection pen?

A counterfeit (detection) pen is a pen-shaped instrument that has a felt tip which contains iodine solution. This iodine solution is helpful in identifying a computer-generated, fake or counterfeit bill.  

2. How does it work?

 Most criminals use the copy paper (standard printing paper) to print the counterfeit bill. The iodine solution quickly reacts with the wood pulp containing starch, present in such papers.  Authentic government generated bills do not use such papers for printing bills they use fiber based papers for printing currency. So it is a visible marker to check a fake note.

3. How to use a detection pen?

You do not require any specific training in this regard. It’s as simple as putting a mark on a piece of paper using a pen. Yes, all you need to do it put a mark from the felt tip of the pen on the corner of the bill. 

4. How to identify?

Well, it’s a simple chemical reaction. When the iodine in the solution reacts with the starch of the paper, a chemical reaction occurs that changes the color of the bill to dark brown or black.  So, if the mark on the bill changes color it means the bill is counterfeit but if not it’s good to use. 

5. How to buy a counterfeit detection pen?

Nowadays it has become effortless to buy such pens as they are commonly available in the market.  One pen will cost you about $5, and it can check about 3000 bills.  You can also buy such pens online at reasonable rates.

So, I guess now you must have got answers to all your queries about counterfeit detection pens. Commonly such pens were used to identify wood pulp paper based currency. But they can also detect paper currency on thread base.

Today, almost every businessman, small or significant or even a store owner uses the detection pen to check the authenticity of the bills presented to them.

Although such pens are capable of detecting most of the fake currency, there is still a significant portion of counterfeit currencies made through other sources that go undetected.

I don’t say that these pens are foolproof, but at least they are of some help. And some help is better than none.

Pollution is one of the greatest dangers that humanity is facing today. The plastic that’s being wasted into the water is increasing every day. The situation is so bad that experts forecast that by 2050, the oceans will have more plastic garbage than fish.

The consequences can be devastating for the sea species, but also for people who consume sea food. As unbelievable as it sounds, we are eating the waste we produce. This large pollution is costing the world more than $12 billion a year in environmental damage.

Actions have to be taken and some change has to be underway soon if we want to avoid a catastrophic scenario for the future. The positive news is that some people have already taken some measures to prevent further worsening of the situation.

The last one is the Norwegian billionaire Kjell Inge Røkke, who wants to clean up the ocean with a new vessel specially designed to clean up the plastic cluttered on the bottom of the ocean.

The idea behind his “superyacht”, which will be finished by 2020, is to collect the plastic from the oceans and melt it down. According to the plan, the yacht should be able to collect around 5 tons of debris per day.

While 5 tons of garbage may sound a lot, it actually might not be enough. The stats show that every year, humans dispose of 8 million tons of plastic garbage into the oceans.

Still, the new vessel will definitely reduce the plastic waste in the ocean once it’s realized, although additional measures need to be taken in order to reduce the production of plastic garbage.

However, Røkke might have the solution for this, as well – or at least might have it soon. Røkke’s plan is to invite scientists and researchers to join him in this endeavour by studying climate issues aboard the vessel in order to fight the related problems.

In the vessel, the 60 scientists will have access to laboratories and advanced technology and equipment that will help them work on finding innovative solutions for the marine-related issues.

Røkke is not new in the marine business and he has been criticized for the profit he has made in the oil and gas sector. He owns almost 67% of Norwegian company Aker ASA and is one of the richest people in Norway.

His wealth has been estimated to $2.6 billion, and he has profited the most from offshore drilling. So, he wants to see this new project as a way of giving back to the world for the billions he has made.

RD The 595-foot superyacht called Research Expedition Vessel (REV) will be designed by Espen Oeino, and built by VARD. Other than clean the ocean, the new superyacht is already famous for another feature.

Namely, it will be the largest yacht ever built, beating the now-largest 592-foot Azzam yacht. The ship will be managed by the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) Norway and they have complete independence over the mission of the ship, granted by the billionaire himself.

Moreover, the ship was designed in such a way that it will release low amount of carbon. VARD explained that the superyacht will include an “energy recovery rudder system, medium speed engines, a direct drive diesel-electric propulsion system with battery package, and an exhaust cleaning system,” which will also help the crew reduce their personal carbon footprint.

For a Norweigan magazine, the billionaire revealed that he is motivated to return something to the world for the profit he has made. In addition, 70% of the surface of the Earth is covered with water and a great deal of it is not yet studied, and this new project can change that.

Do you get tired living a hectic life in a city? If you do, but you think you have not enough money to move to another place – there is a solution for you.

There is the village of Bormida, located on the hillside of Italy, which offers to pay you 2,175$ if you decide to move there. Moreover, the rent will be only 50$ a month. This is an attempt to increase the village’s declining population.

According to a local newspaper, the population in Bormida has declined in 2014 to 390 residents under the office of the current major – Daniele Galliano. Not wanting this village to become a “ghost town”, Galliano started to take actions to reverse the sudden decay.

Today, the village has 394 residents; which does not seem like Galliano succeed in what he had planned. However, when you take into consideration the fact that 54 people died or moved away, and only 4 were born – this is a success.

“Instead of seeing a heavy demographic deficit, the situation is stable thanks to the initiatives of the municipal administration to encourage those who, by necessity or pleasure, wish to live in a small mountain community like ours,” said Galliano to Il Vostro Giornale.  

However, looking at the fact that the population increased to only 4 more people, Galliano started to take more serious measures and actions. He decided to lower the price of rents from $130 a month to a symbolic price of only $50 per month.

British Guardian views the offer as one that still needs to be approved by the local council. But, if the offer passes, everyone who decides to move there will be given a cash of $2000.

Moreover, if you look at the pace of life you will have in “Bor(ing)” Bormida you will see that it will take you a long time before you can spend all the money.

According to Cosmopolitan, there is one main street in the village, 4 restaurants (it’s Italy after all!), a post office which is opened 3 days a week, and a bed and breakfast. The whole architecture there dates back to 1200s.

“There is nothing much to do here,” said Oddone Giuseppe, the manager of one of the restaurants. “But life is so simple and natural, we have forests, goats, the church, and plenty of good food. Life would definitely be free of stress.”

But, some are still skeptical. One Facebook user wrote addressing Mr. Galliano that he would like to take his offer and move to Bormida if he can guarantee him a job also.

What do you think? Would you be interested in Mr. Galliano’s offer and consider moving to Italy?

Many people are not aware of what they are eating, drinking, and worst of all, breathing. And while we can control what we intake when it comes to food and liquids, controlling what kind of air we breathe is unimaginable – at least for us.

There have been many conspiracy theories regarding chemtrails, as to what they contain and what they are actually used for. The common thing in all those claims is that we are being poisoned constantly and that the reason this is not revealed is because, well of course, who would tell you if they actually did poison you?

An audio recording of a telephone conversation which was uploaded to YouTube could shed some light on what is actually happening to the air we breathe. Uploaded in 2013, the recording is of a conversation between Douglas E. Rowland, from NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, and a woman.

In it, Rowland admits that the chemtrails contain Lithium, which he claims not to be harmful to the environment in any way and that it is used for scientific and research purposes only.

What Rowland explains is that the purpose of dispersing lithium in the atmosphere is so that scientists can understand better of how the wind moves in the atmosphere. Which is more, he explains that it’s not only lithium, but also “different kinds of chemtrails” that they use.

Releasing these chemicals in the ionosphere is backed up by the need to understand how our planet works, by observing the electric currents driven by the wind. To do this, they release these chemtrails and observe their visible movement forced by the winds and take pictures.

Nasa’s official stance on this matter confirms what Rowland explains in the recording by explaining that the disturbances in the ionosphere translate in disturbed signals in their communications and GPS satellites, which send those signals through the ionosphere.

The major concern that the people have is whether we are given Lithium and other harmful chemicals to breathe in.

This, of course, is something everyone should be concerned about. Lithium is a chemical which is given as pharmaceutical treatment for people with bipolar disorder. It works by altering the levels of serotonin and norepinephrine secreted in our brains and can be very dangerous.

Doctors say that it is hard to establish the proper dosing for those who need it, and that it is dangerous – something which doesn’t sync with what Rowland claims.

The side effects of Lithium can be very dangerous:

• Excessive urination
• Suicidal thoughts
• Seizures
• Fever
• Diarrhea and vomiting
• Swelling of the hands and feet
• Confusion or hallucinations

If this makes lithium dangerous for those who need it, the people who don’t need it are at even greater risk.

The main question is: Does lithium released in the ionosphere reach the unsuspecting citizens, and if it does, does this show an indifference to the wellbeing of the population or is something much more heinous in game?

Serotonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine are the three most important chemicals in our brain for our mental wellbeing. If a disturbance exists, it very often translates into a mental illness.

While it’s your choice as to what to believe in, and what to dismiss, taking everything into consideration is important when yours and the lives of those around you are at play.
