Flying cars are here at last

For anybody who grew up on Tomorrow's World or The Jetsons, the future has been a huge disappointment. Yes, we might have home computers and mobile telephones and robot dogs. But we don't have the flying cars that we were promised.
Until now, that is.

Debbie Harry's still rocking

VETERAN rock chick DEBBIE HARRY gives another Atomic performance at the ripe old age of 62.
The star — who sang “Denis, Denis, I’m so in love with you” — looked a long way from her glamorous heyday in Blondie as she stomped around in trainers at London’s Hammersmith Apollo.
Theatre bosses are planning a musical based on BLONDIE hits called Desperately Seeking Susan. It will open in the West End later this year.

Going for a holiday in Brazil is a great option!!

From the famous cocktail "Caipirinha" to the traditional "Feijoada".
Diverse, with lots of seafood (including the badejo, a delicious sea bass), fresh fish from the Amazon and beefsteaks straight off the southern plains. The more staple diet consists of rice and beans and a variety of stews, including feijoada and moqueca, made of seafood flavoured with coconut milk.
I love it!!
