what’s possible in a week? If you dedicated seven days to the achievement of one goal, how ambitious could you make this goal? These were the questions that the multilingual friends Katy and Sara posed themselves when they determined to learn English, to prove that it can be done and anyone can do it with the right methods,learn English in one week.possible in a week? If you dedicated seven days. They would attempt to liberate themselves from the distractions and responsibilities of modern-day life in order to cram eight hours of study time and I was observing some of the world’s most capable language learners at work. The friends set themselves the challenge of learning a language in a week in order to stretch themselves, and then it was a question of choosing which language to learn. English presented itself […]

Do most doctors fully understand human physiology? At least to the degree they need to for public health and chronic disease? Most doctors think they know plenty about human physiology, but many don’t. In fact, many doctors are missing some of the most fundamental principles of how human physiology misfires when consuming the modern western diet, particularly too much meat and dairy. What most doctors are taught in medical school is a set of rules created more around pharmacological-based medicine and less about true evidenced-based medicine. Is there a flaw or a conspiracy? Nobody can claim any one reason to the problem. Nevertheless, many of the rules governing how modern health care is taught and practiced can be linked back some 100 years earlier to the Flexner Report. The Flexner Report came out in the early 1900s and it still accounts […]

This weekend, more downpours are coming to Texas, where flood levels not seen in over 100 years have left at least 16 people dead since Memorial Day weekend, nine of whom were US Army soldiers posted at Fort Hood. One of those dead was a man found caught in metal bars near a San Antonio river drainage site, police told reporters Friday. In addition to the estimated 6,000 homes impacted by the heavy rain-induced flooding, three prison facilities had to be evacuated, Texas and US Army officials said during a Friday news conference. After the Brazos River flooded on Friday, the state’s Department of Criminal Justice moved all of its 1,700 prisoners from W. F. Ramsey Unit in the city of Rosharon, which is roughly 30 miles south of Houston near the Gulf of Mexico. About 2,600 inmates from two […]

The death toll from monsoon floods in India, Bangladesh and Nepal has climbed above 1,200, as rescue workers scramble to provide aid to millions of people stranded by the worst such disaster in years. All three countries suffer frequent flooding during the June-September monsoon season, but international aid agencies say things are worse this year with thousands of villages cut off and people deprived of food and clean water for days. Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi conducted an aerial survey of flood-hit Bihar state on Saturday and has pledged a relief fund of $78m. A flash flood emergency has been declared in the Houston area of Texas by the National Weather Service after water reached the second floors of houses south of the city. The heavy rains were brought about by hurricane Harvey, now downgraded to a tropical storm. Government […]

Four test playing nations. A former World Number One lost its way to experience one of the lowest points in the annals of their sporting history. In recent times, a supremely insurmountable side at home became more prone to defeats. A team famously regarded as the most volatile side to have taken the field endured isolation and wilderness in the Arabian deserts. A team deemed misfit started making significant strides that the world took note of. These are tumultuous yet exciting times for the test playing nations from the subcontinent. One day, the leaves wither as they turn old. India and Sri Lanka are primarily experiencing this phase. There are more greens on their tree today. Pakistan is almost in a situation where the leaves are about to fall. The cricketing expiry for Misbah and Younus is much closer than […]

At the first debate between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, authenticity proved to be no substitution for preparation. Strong words faded in the face of solid experience. And, in a campaign that has seen norms shattered, there was something comforting about at least one candidate behaving in expected ways — and The meeting came at a Letter moment, with six weeks before Election Day. The night's potential impact had the senior advisers to both campaigns losing sleep in recent days. Only Clinton's should feel comfortable as they crawl under the covers. What remained unclear is whether either candidate had changed voters' minds or given them permission to firmly link up with a candidate they already leaned toward. Even Trump admitted Clinton is a governing-focused nerd, and Trump's victory in the Republican primaries was rooted in his eagerness to buck traditional […]

The 3-4 Seahawks are headed to Arlington and seeking revenge against the 2-4 Cowboys who shocked the world by beating the reigning Super Bowl champs at home in 2014. Something no other opponent was able to do.. The Seahawks, much like the Cowboys, are off to a slow start in 2015. Both teams are desperately seeking some new found hope in a last ditch effort to return to the playoffs. In this post the YDCFF staff share our thoughts and predictions for the rematch. Kevin Sivells: Well, it is revenge time for the Seattle Seahawks. They are coming into Dallas with a chip on their shoulders. I am pretty sure they have not forgotten how these Cowboys rode into Seattle last season and out muscled them in their home stadium. I am pretty sure they want to return the favor. The […]

For the first time in their history, Team Germany has beaten an American national squad as they defeated the USA, represented by the United States Federation of American Football, 14-13 at the World Games in Wroclaw, Poland, in a game which should not have been that close. The USFAF team, which almost did not make it to the World Games, was put together, literally within a couple of days. With barely one practice under their belts and a roster which was below the minimum 45, a rag tag United States team took the field to face a well-prepared German team  in the middle of the regular season in Germany. And it showed as Team Germany controlled much of the play. Nevertheless, Team USA battled. After a quiet first quarter, in which Germany missed a chance to take the lead on a missed field goal, Team Germany opened the scoring. Quarterback Alexander Haupert connected with 6’9″ wide receiver Aurieus Adegbesan on a 43 yard touchdown pass and Thomas Rauch kicked the extra point […]
