ANIMAL RIGHTS IN ROMANIA


The idea of "animal rights" is that the basic interests of animals should be afforded the same consideration as the similar interests of humans. Animals should be viewed as legal persons and members of the community-not property, and that they should not be used as food, clothing, research subjects or entertainment. Animal law is taught in 112 law schools in the USA and in 8 schools in Canada. In Romania has been voted an animal protection law referring only about wild animals and animals with owners,it doesn't include the stray ones. Despite this, there are many animal foundations who are trying to do the best for the stray dogs found on the streets. White Fang Foundation is one of them created thanks to the initiative and efforts of some people who love animals. What is interesting about this foundation is the fact that you can adopt a specific dog from the shelter but you don't have to take the dog home because the foundation will take care of him with your financial support. You will receive pictures with the dog and information's about his life and health. Animals have no voice to educate the community about the laws that have been enacted to protect them. You can be the voice for them!

THE SECRET LIFE OF MARILYN MONROE







If you think you know all there is to know about Marilyn Monroe think again. Based on never-before-revealed correspondence between Gladys- Marilyn's mother, business associates and family members, as well as first time interviews with those who knew Gladys in sanitariums in which she lived, Taraborrelli weaves a complex story of mental illness. Based on a stunning amount of research that includes voluminous family and medical files, personal correspondence and notes, thousands of other primary documents as well as scores of interviews with FBI and Secret Service agents, friends, family members, "The Secret Life of Marilyn Monroe completely redefines the story of a legend. In Romania cartea se numeste "Marilyn Monroe-secrete, glorie si tragedie" si se distribuie alaturi de ziarul Saptamana Financiara. Charles Casillo, autor si biograf al lui Marilyn, a descris cel mai bine atractia exercitata de aceasta astfel: "Marilyn Monroe era frumoasa. Marilyn Monroe era sexy. Marilyn Monroe era delicioasa...intotdeauna delicioasa.Toata lumea stia asta.Nu era doar un sex simbol.Farmecul ei era copilaresc, inocent, stralucitor-te frapa si il vedeai ca pe un vas cu capsuni proaspete, ornate cu putina frisca...Creatia lui Marilyn Monroe o transformase pe fetita aceea nedorita si mereu pe drumuri in cea mai dorita, cea mai discutata, analizata, barfita si ravnita femeie a epocii sale."

MILKSHAKE RECIPIES











When the term "milkshake" was first used in print in 1885, milkshakes were an alcoholic whiskey drink. However, by 1900 the term referred to "wholesome drinks made with chocolate, strawberry or vanilla syrups". In the late 1930s, several newspaper articles show that the term "frosted" was used to refer to milkshakes made with ice cream. All in all, here are some recipes that I've picked up for everyone out there who loves this delicious drink. CHOCOLATE MILKSHAKE: 1 cup chocolate ice cream, 2 cups of milk, 3-4 tablespoons chocolate syrup. Put all the ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. BANANA CHOCOLATE MILKSHAKE: 1 cup of milk,2 tablespoons cocoa, 1 cup sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 medium sliced banana, ice cubes. First pour the milk in a blender, add cocoa then blend on low speed until is well mixed. Add sugar, vanilla and banana. Blend until smooth. STRAWBERRY MILKSHAKE: 1 cup milk, 1 cup strawberry ice cream, 2 cups strawberries, ice. Put all the ingredients in a blender. CHERRY MILKSHAKE: 200g vanilla ice cream, 2 tablespoons of milk, 150g cherries. Remove cherry stalk and pit from each cherry. Blend the ice cream, milk and the pitted cherries till smooth. As for a garnishing idea top with marshmallows and chopped cherries like in the picture above.

I KNOW WHO KILLED ME




I came across this movie the other days and though there where so many with a bad opinion about it I still found it interesting to watch, especially if you're a fan of Lindsay Lohan. A stylish psychological thriller with a captivating riddle at its center, I Know Who Killed Me explores the dark side of identity, family and obsession. The quiet suburb of New Salem is being terrorized by a brutal serial killer who abducts and tortures young women, holding them captive for weeks before murdering them. Aubrey Fleming appears to be his latest victim when she disappears without a trace during a night out with friends. After a frantic search, Aubrey turns up to be alive, but changed. She is missing limbs, but has gained a new personality-that of a bad girl Dakota Moss. Her parents and the FBI think she' suffering from delusions, but if "Dakota" is just a trick of her mind, why do strange wounds keep appearing on her body? "I Know Who Killed Me" is rated R for grisly violence including torture and disturbing images, sexuality and profanity.
