Really?

Some funny stuff...

  1. Human heart creates enough pressure to squirt blood at a distance of 10 meters. (Oh, God!)
  2. Pig’s orgasm lasts 30 minutes! (I want to be a pig in my next life :) )
  3. A cockroach can live 9 days with the severed head before it starves to death. (Phew!) (…I am still thinking about a pig…:))
  4. Banging your head against the wall for an hour you can spend 150 calories. (Do not try at home ..... at work, maybe)
  5. A flea can jump a distance of 350 times its body length. It's like a human jumping a football field. (…30 minutes ....... lucky pig ... just imagine!)
  6. Some lions mate over 50 times a day. (Still a pig is much cooler ... the quality over the quantity)
  7. The strongest muscle in human’s body is tongue! (Hmmm.......)
  8. Right handed people, on average, live nine years longer than left-handed ones. (I am unlucky one :( )
  9. Elephants are the only animals that can not jump. (That's even better)
  10. An ostrich's eye is bigger than its brain (I know several people just like those ostriches)
  11. Starfish has no brain (and I know such people as well)
  12. Humans and dolphins are the only species that have sex for pleasure! (Lovely!)
  13. And one more thing... Never believe everything you hear and read, otherwise, you can be automatically ticked under #11 in this list :)

Viva Brazil

The Christmas and New Year Eve were truly remarkable for me this year as I spent it in fantastic and mesmerising Brazil. My friend Caio was my guide there and as a native he could show me the best of Brazil: not only the touristic parts but also the whole beauty of small towns and suburbs, everyday life, traditions and culture. Considering that not many people speak English there I am so grateful to Caio for making this trip so amazing and stress free for me. Multifaceted and colourful Brazil is known for its nature, culture and rich history. In Brazil you can experience everything from architectural monuments of the colonial era, lively carnivals to  simply   a delicate aroma of coffee floating in the air. Among of all beautiful places Rio De Janeiro surely holds is pr imary position for me. Noisy, picturesque and ever bubbling Rio attracts by its excellent sandy beaches, luxurious hotels, unique sights and state-of-the-art architecture. To visit the city of all B...

Uzbekistan: reforms to privatization and commercialization and all the way back to command economy

Uzbekistan's transition to market relations determined the state policy in forming and development the class of real property-owners, but in recent years the government decided that this system doesn’t work for Uzbek society. On the first stage of reforms the government was working towards the privatization of state housing fund, small and medium trade enterprises, service, light and food industries, transport and construction. All these formed 52268 owners of trade, consumer services, public catering, and consumer cooperation entities. At the second stage the privatization formed 2 million shareholders of privatized enterprises, 3 million owners of personal household plots, 85 thousand owners of private and small enterprises and 14 thousand of real estate owners. Last, the privatization of industrial giants such as fuel and energy complex, chemical, metallurgical and machine-building industries is conducted, and it's carried out with wide attraction of foreign capital.

Still under impression from Budrus....

On Saturday I went to Curzon for premiere of Budrus in the UK– an award-winning feature documentary about peaceful resistance as a means of Israeli-Palestinian conflict resolution. To say it was good means to say nothing. It is excellent film, which makes you see behind all these sensational news headlines, shows the conflict on a local level and how it affects people’s lives. Even though I am from Uzbekistan, living in the UK and the problems in the Middle East are far away from me, the film made me feel sensitive about the issue, made me empathize… The plot of the film is unarmed movement organised by Palestinian, Ayed Morrar, who united local Fatah and Hamas members along with Israeli supporters to save his village of Budrus from destruction by Israel’s Separation Barrier. At the end of the premiere filmmaker Julia Bacha told the audience about the process of filming, main characters and their lives today, about Budrus and issues the other Arab villages facing today, about non-viole...
