Research has shown, that women are happier and healthier if they enjoy a regular chat with their girlfriends every once in a while. This is because if a women talks to another women her level of progesterone increases. This hormone helps to reduce the feelings of anxiety and stress. It also plays an important role in social bonding and it is one of the main reasons why women are more willing to help others even if this might mean that might have the risk their life during the process.
I find it very important that there are people out their who are linkin biological mechanisms and social behavior. It is important to know why some people are happier, healthier and live longer in general. I think it is very interesting to about hormones and the influence they have on people. The thing I did miss in this article was the fact that they did not give any insight on the influence gossip has on the behavior of men.

Influenced by Physical Touch
Researchers have found out that people get influenced by the physical touch of their surroundings. The ability to touch is one of the most important one things we have, when it comes to exploring the world. One of the first things a little child learns are concepts such as warmth, roughness and hardness.This study shows us how important it is to understand those factors, because it helps us to understand the society as we become older. You can notice this, because you can see it our language. Just take a look at expressions such as that person has a warm smile or a heart as cold as ice.
This is a very interesting topic, because everyone has to deal with their surroundings. On the other hand I think it is quite obvious that you get influenced by this factor, so it might aswell be a bit of unnessercary information. However, I liked the information the topic gave but I do not think it is possible to have an opinion about it. Mainly because it are all facts and you cannot argue with facts.

Soldiers in Afghanistan Pay a High Prince
Four British soldiers have paid a huge price for being in Afghanistan, all of them died in an accident. Their amored vihicle rolled off a road and ended up under water. People are still investigating the case but there was probably no enemy involved in the action. This accident brings the death toll to 307 people of the UK service personnel who have died in Afghanistan. Now the question remains why are the soldiers still in Afghanistan? The truth is that they are still present because the Afghans are still nog ready to keep their own country save and to keep terrorist out of their country.
I think the big war in Afghanistan was on big mistake to begin with, if you start a war or get involved in one you know people are going to die. Too bad that these four men died in an accident but these things simply occur every now and then. It might as well happen in Britian and it that case no one would have made a big deal out of it.

Even Though I Am Free, I Am Not
Having the right to your own opinion is one of the most important rights a person should have. Living in the Netherlands this right is considered as being normal. However in countries such as Burma it is not. U Win Tin is the living example, he is a former political prisoner and a member of the NLD (National League for Democracy). Although he has already spend 19 years in prison and is still in the danger of being re-arrested, U Win Tin is still promoting democracy and human rights.
In my opinion U Win Tin is a hero. He is constantly fighting for things he considers as being the right thing to do. The fact that human rights are being broken is a shame to all of us and it shoudl be stopped as soon as possible. Luckily we still have people like U Win Tin to fight for it, sadly enough this does mean that he is putting his life at stake.

The Things We Do for Charity
Our victim Joe and ten of his mates, decided to do something for charity. They wanted to raise money for the local hospital and had agreeds to do the girls only therapy. In other words they agreed to get waxed. The majority of the men only got their chest waxed, however there was one brave man present.. Joe our victim agreed to get his balls waxed. Sadly enough this went wrong and Joe almost lost a testicle because of it. Luckily Joe is doing fine and his balls are healing. And more important Joe and his friends raised 3000 pounds for the children's hospital.
I think Joe is very brave and at least he had the guts to try something new. Although I am pretty sure he will not try this again. I like the fact that they raised a lot of money for the hospital and the story gave me a laugh. I hope Joe and his balls will be better soon, so they can continu raising money for charity.

Dirty Lunatics
Robert Thompas and Venables are accussed of storing indecent pictures and video's of children, This is not the first time this duo has shown inappropriate behaviour with a child. At the age of ten these two have killed a two-year-old toddler. Due to this crime, they both got life sentence, but since both were ten years old while the committed the crime they got released after ten years. Partly because they had shown good behaviour in prison.
People like this are the main reason why I am for the death penal. Although I believe the should not get it because of the porn, but because of the murder on the toddler. Just imagine, if a child of ten is capable of commiting a murder.. what would he be capable of when he is a grown up? And since when is life sentence ten years, I do not want people like that walking around in my country free. Just keep them in prison where they belong!

Are Our Children the Victims of the Harsh Society?
Apparently children are more at risk when it comes to personal crimes, such as robbery, assault and theft. As a matter of fact 25% of the children has been the victim of crime in the year 2009. These children are aged between 10 and 15 years old. In the year 2009, 2.153.000 crimes of theft and violence took place, the people involved were all children under the age of 16. This is a serious matter, but nonetheless we should keep in mind that the figures may be wrong. It is very likely that the figures overstate the level of crime among children, since many incidents probably will not be classified as a crime by most people.
I think it is a very bad development that children are being bothered that much. They should be able to get a nice childhood without crime, sadly enough this is apparently not possible due to society. I think that the main problem is that people are too used at being exposed to crime and agression. This is partly because of television, but also because the things people see on the street. People should know better than to behave agressive.. but we do not act that way.
