If you are planning to travel abroad next month HPA (the Health Protection Agency recommends keeping some swine flu precautions because 42 countries have now reported confirmed cases of the H1N1 virus, the number of cases of swine flu around the world to more than 11,100. and there have been 86 deaths. The number of cases in England rose by five to 117, but there have still been no confirmed cases in Wales, although 10 people who have travelled to the US and Mexico are still being investigated.
First of all travelers should ensure they have access to adequate healthcare and health insurance. UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office’s advice states: “Travelers to an area of the world affected by swine flu should ensure they have access to adequate healthcare and insurance before traveling.
“They should be aware of the flu-like symptoms associated with swine flu and consult a doctor immediately if they exhibit these symptoms.” That’s important. The swine flu information line can be contacted on 00 44 207 928 1010 from abroad.
They also recommend to all of travellers to have maintained basic hygiene in their cases, which includes frequent hand washing and covering your nose and mouth while sneezing.
“Generally the disease seems to be mild so, therefore, travel restrictions would not be sensible” Dr John Watkins, a public health consultant at the National Public Health Service for Wales, said.
“If you are fit enough to travel then you will probably be reasonably OK, but sensible precautions apply no matter where you travel in the world.”
It seams that Spaniard Breathe Cocaine scientists of the CSIC institute affirm. They have detected cocaine in concentrations of 29 to 850 picogrammes per cubic metre in the air of Madrid and Barcelona.

“Even if we lived 1,000 years we would not consume the equivalent of a dose of cocaine through the air,” says one of the scientists, Miren Lopez de Alda.
“Heroin was also found in detectable levels in the samples taken in Madrid, but not in those from Barcelona,” says the CSIC.*
Dont know is it important or not but samples taken before Champions League final:-)
Coffee should be black as hell, strong as death and as sweet as love. Yes, I must confess I’m a not only great pretender but great coffee lover!:-) And I have many reasons why I drink my strong black cofee through all my day over.
First of all cup of coffee helps me wake up and to be refreshed. It powers my workouts. It helps me shed pounds at last. Besides that dont you know that according to the National Institute of Environmental Medicine in Stockholm increasing your coffee intake may prevent liver cancer. Two cups of java daily lowered a person’s risk by 43 percent on average. In another study from University of Minnesota at Minneapolis, women who drank coffee had a 24 percent lower risk of dying from heart disease and other inflammatory conditions. Antioxidants in coffee are likely behind the protective benefits.
What else? It can ease muscle cramps and makes your cardio feel like a cinch, and what is the most important it always helps you get want you want:-)
“How sweet coffee tastes! Lovlier than a thousand kisses, sweeter than Muscatel wine!”
Johann Sebastian Bach (Coffee Cantata)
