writing - Write a letter to the Managing Director of BES outlining your solutions to the problem

Dear --(Managing Director of BES)--

I've looked into your situation and the problems that you face. The main problem that I detect is the reduced sales, which appeared after replacing Sales Manager. Consequences are observed among employees (other than their individual characteristics). Employees are very low motivated to work, their behavior is incorrect, they're unfairly disciplined and that don't accept responsibility to mistakes. Also, some of the employees are acting like kids, not adult persons, they are very bad from professional point of view, because are including their private life at work.

I found few points that affect to the problem and you have to correct: - manager has no authority among employees - employees are not motivated to work - employees have lost their key to success

In order to solve the problem, I suggest the following options: Firstly, the new sales manager should take some activities to make authority among the employees. He should not come in a situation employees to say: good old days... Nigel Fraser must show his skills and make A TEAM, not individual employees, that compete and argue with each other and are irresponsible. Then, when he can work in a COMPANY TEAM, he can improve employees' keys to success. At the end, I'd like to say that if employees don't become better, responsible, professional, then you must take more stringent measures, like reduction in their salary and even dismissal from the workplace. Because there are lot of people that want a job and will be happy to show off their skills. Ultimately, these are not the perfect employees and none are. But the employees must give the best they have.

I hope that my solutions will help you to solve the problem.

Best wishes,

Angela

The changes in my life
There are thousands of changes that happen to us. Everything is changing and nothing lasts forever. In my life this year especially happened a lot of changes - emotional and material. Firstly, I think I grew up this summer emotionally. A lot of things happened to me and now I'm thinking how smart steps I took. How much problems I solved that I even didn't predict them ever in my life. I've never been thinking that I can change my mind for some questions, but I did it. I was surpriced. Now I feel stronger and smarter. Also, a material changes happen in my life. Last week I bought a Mercedes Jeep which I've never been thinking I could have, but now it's in my garage. I was just watching it on TV and some buisnessman driving it in my town (especially foreighners on summer that came in Gostivar). This change caused change of my way of thinking to better and much positive. Also it made me believe in myself and changed my life from grey to much more colourfull. :)

Caferoma
(An E-mail for Managing Director - Mario Cumino)

Dear Mr. Cumino, I am really sorry because I wasn't able to attend on the last meeting about the possible solutions for increasing Caferoma's share of the coffe market. In addition in this mail I'll suggest you my ideas. I hope you'll like and accept them. Firstly, something about the logo. It can be changed, to be more interesting and to attracts more customers. Then some changes about the packaging and distribution are well-come. The price is big problem, because of the big competition on the market. Caferoma should reduce the price by 25% so that it's in the medium range of prices. Caferoma have to develop a new advertising campaign to relaunch the brand. Also, I think the best solution is to bring out a new product - an instant coffe, or decaffeinated product under the Caferoma brand as soon as possible. By the way, Caferoma must allow some makers of coffe equipment (cafetieres, percolators, coffe machines, etc.) to use the Caferoma brand on their goods, for a licensing fee.

Sport --> Promoting Macedonia
These days we saw a great win by Macedonia on EuroBasket2011. It was so unexpected, but also it had a triple effect - 1. All Macedonian people we're happy and together celebrating 4th place ranking in EuroBasket2011; [|Gostivar Slavi part1] [|Gostivar Slavi part2] [|Gostivar Slavi3] these are link from Youtube by celebrating in my town... First time I saw so many people on streets celebrating. The view was amazing. I wish to see again so many Macedonian, all together with smile on their face... :) 2. Every Macedonian was feeling proud to be a Macedonian; all social networks we're updating every second with new status's with names of the players of Macedonian Basketball Representation, videos and photos with Macedonian flag & Macedonian songs... Facebook and Twitter we're all red and yellow. Also, on Youtube we're uploaded thousands of videos by celebrating in all other towns in Macedonia, not just in my town, but the videos came lately, first came the photos on Facebook and status's on Twitter. 3. Great way to promote Macedonia to other countries. our Government was promoting our country in the world by making expensive videos along Macedonian land, but not so many people learnt about Macedonia. This time, with sport, I think that every European heard about Macedonia.. That was the cheapest way to promote our country and t he most effective way. Oh, I'm still so happy about that great win.. And this video makes me cry from happiness [|Macedonian Team - EuroBasket 2011]

**PERSUASIVE ESSAYS (20)**
- Concerning this issue before we state for sure where we stand and what is our opinion about it, a careful observation and explanation should be made. - First of all, the prisons are considered to be a kind of houses for protection from the people that are dangerous. So, the question is Do we need these institutions to protect our society and it's members. If the answer is positive, then we are definitely a certain that the members of the community and our society can not be changed in any other way. So, that would mean that no matter why or what has driven these people to act in such a way, we condemn their action completely and we don't believe that there is even a single chance for them to change. And according to that opinion, the presence of prisons is definitely justified. - On the other hand, if our attitude for this question is negative, then these kinds of institutions should be completely abolished ( if thinking extremely ) or simply rearranged or reorganized. So, every thing relies on the human potential for changing their way of thinking, acting and managing problems. According to that, the need of prisons is necessary.
 * 1. Do we need prisons?**
 * However, the basis of the issue is just deeply in our human minds and the alternation of our conclusion. I strongly believe that people can change, but for sure there are also some people who simply are violent due to many factors.

- Death penalty was a corporal punishment in every different state in the world. As the world was becoming more "civilized" and more modern, many of the countries abolished this kind of corporal punishment. In those countries where this punishment exist, there are still murders that happen in a prison. So, logically a question emerges on the surface. Death penalty for all, or just for those who also kill people in prison. Murder is murder. That's a sin punishable by the state. The problem arises when we want to know the prisoners have changed themselves or they have remained the selves person. Do the state has to prepare a legal stratification of the murder and the degree of guilt of the prisoner, or that should be a law that would provide mortal punishment for every killer. There are many examples that prove that people (prisoners) have changed and many murders in prisons that stand as proof that the killers keep their own way. The best possible solution according to my opinion is that every killer should be well monitored and observed. His wife, mother, behavior, habits and many other aspects, but that is a time-consuming task and project that would be law-lasting. So, according to this, the death penalty should remain to all who are suppose to be punished in such way.
 * 2. Should the death penalty be mandatory for all murderers, or just for those who manage to kill people even when staying in a prison?**

- Being gay was a great taboo a few years ago. But it seems that the present greatest taboo especially in the countries from the former socialistic states is "Gay marriage". Being gay is definitely a thing of personal choice and none has right to comment on somebody's personal selections concerning sex orientation. Marriage is a constitutional category that is defined by the law and by that it is legal and lawfully supported. That means the partners are equal and have great responsibility referring to the offspring. The orthodox prospect of the marriage that is known since ever, is well-known and established by legal laws and religious laws, but there's also the so called natural law or the birth law. All these orthodox legal and religious views are put aside by this gay marriage which is naturally fruitless and by that children and condemned to ruin by many respectful social and religions institutions. On the other hand, there are examples of many religions, Catholic countries, that seems to stay blind and do not condemn these marriages. In some protestant-countries, they are even legalized. The partners can adopt children and by that change the mental view of the family known as society consisted of a father and a mother. None knows what effects would what have on the children raised in such unnaturally families. I am convinced that everything that is against nature is making problems, changes... Perhaps not legally or forcefully, but naturally. So, I don't like (support) gay marriages.
 * 3. What do you think about gay marriages?**

- The foundation of our modern society are financial power and beauty. The moment we are born we have to accept those artificial standards set by our society. Definitely, one of the greatest contemporary standard is our physical appearance or beauty. I didn't use the word "or" in vain. Our society compels us to use this word in order to tends the physical beauty, which is one of the standards for better earning, communication or even better future for social individual. If we do not match these so called beauty standards and we are so called "beauty slaves" the I think that would definitely make an mental pleasure towards the need for cosmetic surgery. The opposite view on this matter would be closely linked with our naturally given features or would be connected religiously to the old saying "God makes us as we are". And, there's truth in that. If we accept the way we are "made" then we can have and easy life that goes along without "beauty pleasure". The life word about this would definitely be the one of ourselves, but many doctors would have one or more opinions concerning the issue. I strongly believe that the moment a person accepts who he/she is, that is the moment we can live with ourselves in peace. Because nobody is perfect, but anyway, we should never give up the pursuit of perfection.
 * 4. Do we want to have a cosmetic surgery?**

- "Necessity is another of inventory". Necessity is an impulse and a motivation, but the doubt and wondering the invention with work or not. Being skeptical is helpful or not. The positive aspect of the answer can be found in lots of examples. The method of proving and experimenting was found by a skeptical man. The story begun in a monastery in France where the mans had been debating about the number of the teeth in the horses mouth. They were skeptical about all the answers that were presented and finally one of them suggested that they should open the horse's mouth and simply count them. That's how this method because widely accepted and approved. There are many examples that can serve as good examples that show that the doubt was considered as great motivation and excellent stimulus for social great world inventions and experiments. Lavr century's geniuses such as Albert Einstein and Nikola Tesla based much of their invention due to their and other's doubt's and skeptic. If the above said proves that doubt why positive and essential for those great names then there must not be doubt about the "necessity of the doubt", but directed and stimulated properly and preciously.
 * 5. Is it helpful being skeptical?**

Last month I went in Skopje and bought a lot of books. I love reading, but I had a lot of tests at school, so I couldn't read it. But two weeks ago, I started reading one of the books. I finished it few days ago. The book called "The cave of ideas", written by Hose Carlos Somoza. World criticism the book compares with the cult of the "Name of the rose" by Umberto Eko. This is a novel in which the story takes place in ancient Greece, specifically Athens, and is associated with Plato's Academy and his teaching. It is presented in the form of authentic ancient Greek transcript, in which the translator appears from time to time in the form of footnotes. It was the first thing that attracted my attention to this very unusual novel. The mystery begins with the murder of a young boy, apparently attacked by wolves.The boy was a student of Plato's Academy. Meanwhile more murders occur. The investigation leads us around Athens, and it seems that the contrast between reality and abstract follow us throughout the novel. Sometimes the text passing in the second person, and it appears that the translator was at times quite confusing and it was very difficult to prilagodam it, but for me this is the most unusual novel I've ever read. The book from beginning to end for me was a complete enigma interwoven with elements of fantasy in which nothing is quite as it seems, and everything, literally to lead the characters in danger, as the danger is behind every corner that will look.  So, if you like this kind of books, this is book for you. ;)
 * 6. The book I've just finished is absolutely fantastic.**

- Sure, as soon as women are allowed to have more than one husband. So, first of all that would be total discrimination. Why women should not be allowed to have more than one husband?! Why only men have that right? When a man is married to more than one wife at a time, the relationship is called polygyny, and there is no marriage bond between the wives. According to the Ethnographic Atlas Codebook, of 1231 societies noted, 186 were monogamous. 453 had occasional polygyny, 588 had more frequent polygamy, and 4 had polyandry. At the same time, even within societies which allow polygamy, the actual practice of polygamy occurs relatively rarely. There are exceptions: in Senegal, for example, nearly 47 percent of marriages are multiple. To take on more than one wife often requires considerable resources: this may put polygamy beyond the means of the vast majority of people within those societies. Such appears the case in many traditional Islamic societies, and in Imperial China. Within polygynous societies, multiple wives often become a status symbol denoting wealth, power, and fame.
 * 7. Should men be allowed to have more than one wife?**

Dear principal, I'm student in 2nd year. I really respect you and I think you are doing the best for the school and for the students, BUT I think that the school uniform that you chose for us is absolutely horrible. I'm writing this letter to you to tell you what I think and the most of my classmates. The school uniform that you chose for us has very low quality, the color is not nice, the size is not good. Also, the uniform does not stand nicely. When we go out from school, we take it off because students from other schools made fun of us. We are ashamed of it. And for that price we think we could find something better. So, according to that you can't made us to wear that, and you shall not be surprised when you are seeing us without school uniform at school. It's not that we don't want to wear school uniform. We do. But, not this uniform! We want to say that better idea would be if you asked us to choose the school uniform. Perhaps not us to decide, but anyway you shall listen and our opinion. Anyway, who will wear that ? WE ! :)
 * 8. I think that the school uniform destroys me as an individual. (letter to my principal)**

Sincerely, Angela.

- Hmm, I'm not sure that all religious people are not tolerant to atheists. I'm religious, but I'm tolerant to everyone, no matter of his way of thinking. Anyway, we must respect everyone if we want them to respect us. Atheism in a broad sense, is the rejection of belief in the existence of deities. In a narrower sense, atheism is specifically the position that there are no deities. Most inclusively, atheism is simply the absence of belief that any deities exist. Atheism is contrasted with theism, which in it's most general form is the belief that at least one deity exists. Atheists tend to be skeptical of supernatural claims, citing a lack of empirical evidence. Atheists have offered various rationales for not believing in any deity. These include the problem of evil, the argument from inconsistent revelations, and the argument from nonbelief. Other arguments for atheism range from the philosophical to the social to the historical. Although some atheists have adopted secular philosophies, there is no one ideology or set of behaviors to which all atheists adhere.

Other arguments for atheism range from the philosophical to the social to the historical. Although some atheists have adopted secular philosophies, there is no one ideology or set of behaviors to which all atheists adhere. Since conceptions of atheism vary, determining how many atheists exist in the world today is no easy task. According to one estimate, about 2.3% of the world's population describes itself as atheist, while a further 11.9% is described as nonreligious. According to another, rates of self-reported atheism are among the highest in Western nations, although also to quite varying degrees—United States (4%), Italy (7%), Spain (11%), Great Britain (17%), Germany (20%), and France (32%). According to this statistics I think that perhaps atheists are not respected by religious people in countries where they are in small percent. But, anyway, it's not about the numbers, it's about human's mind and his thoughts. Also, I think that we must be tolerant to any religion in the world. It is someone's choice and we must be tolerant to him.
 * 9. Why atheists have to be tolerant to religion, while religious people are not tolerant to atheists?**

* Sociologist Phil Zuckerman analyzed previous social science research on secularity and non-belief, and concluded that societal well-being is positively correlated with irreligion. His findings relating specifically to atheism include:
 * Compared to religious people, "atheists and secular people" are lessnationalistic, prejudiced,antisemitic,racist, dogmatic,ethnocentric, close-minded, and authoritarian.
 * In the US, in states with the highest percentages of atheists, the murder rate is lower than average. In the most religious US states, the murder rate is higher than average.

- One of my friends, a skinny girl, thinks that she needs to lose few pounds, but that will only damage her health. Every time when we go out, in pizza bar, she never eats pizza, she only drinks watter. Sometimes she feels so bad, she is very pale. All of us are talking with her and her parents, but she is very stubborn. Last week she started a diet. But yesterday she fainted. She is losing very important vitamins because she is not eating everything, she only drinks water. There are thousands kinds of diets. Some of them make you not to eat all day, some are banning you to eat everything. That't bad not only for a skinny girl, than to all who use it. You won't lose weight. You will lose only your health. I'm really sad for her and I have no idea how to explain her to stop with the diets. As I said she is very stubborn and she doesn't believe us (her friends) that she is very skinny and the diets will only damage her health.

- Dear readers, how often do you cheat? There no exist man or woman on the Earth who is not lying, even the children are doing that. Sometimes we cheat to get something, sometimes we do it to help someone, but if we do it very often, it becomes our habit and that's horrible. It is really hard to find an honest person. People became very bad. I ask myself how far will that go. How broken hearts should be made, to find out that lying is bad. BUT people hope that they will get something good and they will change the mistake they've made if they cheat someone for that. Do you know the quote "Lying is with short legs". So, why should we cheat when we know that the truth will be surfaced. Hmm... Last weekend my parents went outside and they told to me not to get out of house. I was with my grandma all day, it was so boring. Everyone was asking me where will I go that night and I said I'll be at home. I was feeling horrible because I knew how great party will happen that night. I was so nervous. At the end, I decided to go out. I explained to my grandma what to say if my parents call us. Actually, I made her to cheat them for me. That night passed great. I was very happy, but few days later my parents found out that I cheated them. They were very angry to me and my grandma. I'm still sorry because I lied to them. Now they don't believe to me. I lost confidence which they had in me. I regret for what I did and but now nothing can change. They are not mad at me now, because that happened. I had great night with my friends, I'm not sorry for that, but I will count to 10 next time when I'll want to cheat my parents. And I learnt the most important thing that we should not cheat those who are important to us. And do you remember last time when someone lied to you? How did you felt? Angry? Sad? According to this, remember not to lie people, because if you felt sad when you were lied, they will feel sad too.
 * 11. Cheating and lying can sometimes be helpful.**

- For much of the world, vegetarianism is largely a matter of economics: Meat costs a lot more than, say, beans or rice, so meat becomes a special-occasion dish (if it's eaten at all). Even where meat is more plentiful, it's still used in moderation, often providing a side note to a meal rather than taking center stage. In countries like the United States where meat is not as expensive, though, people choose to be vegetarians for reasons other than cost. Parental preferences, religious or other beliefs, and health issues are among the most common reasons for choosing to be a vegetarian. Many people choose a vegetarian diet out of concern over animal rights or the environment. And lots of people have more than one reason for choosing vegetarianism. Clearly meat is nutritious for humans, our teeth can handle the job, and most meateaters love a well-cooked steak. But to say we are natural meateaters, I'd think two things would have to be true: For now I will ignore the first point because experience tells me that meateaters will argue to the death (literally) that eating meat has no health risks. The interesting point to me is why so-called natural meateaters feel the need to disguise their food by cutting it into steaks, cooking it, and covering it with barbecue sauce. If eating meat is natural, you would expect it to make you hungry in it's natural condition. Looking at a cow should make you salivate when you are hungry. -Am I wrong?! According to thousands of statistics - Vegetarians stay slim, but meateaters get fat. I don't care about my weight, I just want to eat more fruit and vegetable, but sometimes I want to taste meat. Anyway I'm meateater but I'd like to start being vegetarian. Sometimes I don't want eating meat because I'm thinking about the animals who are killed for me to have lunch. I'm really sad for them. That's the reason why I want to become a vegetarian, because I love animals and I'm really sorry when they are hurt.
 * 12. Vegetarians vs. Meateaters.**
 * Eating lots of meat wouldn't increase our health risks.
 * Seeing a cow would make you salivate if you were hungry.

- First of all, you have anything you want. Discos, clubs, thousands of friends... But older people don't want that kind of living. They want to have peace, not loud music, not rush hour... <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">We, younger generation, want more parties, more friends, we adore wasting our time outside, chilling with friends,meeting new1... <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">It is really hard tо reach agreement with you parents. They want more calm place to live. Perhaps it is where they feel that their children are more safe. <span style="color: #102614; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; line-height: 22px;">In the first place, there are more employment opportunities readily available in big cities than in a small town. A big city means that it has numerous companies and factories, and hence, those enterprises have enormous demands for labors to work for them. Take Beijing for example, a host of job opportunities offer to people who live in there. Furthermore, not merely there are more job positions, the qualities of the position are much higher as well. In addition, the pay is more decent. <span style="color: #102614; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; line-height: 22px;">In the second place, living in a big city has a superior overall living standard to that in a small town. There are more commodities and services in city markets; there are more public utilities available in big cities; there are even much more tools to secure information in big cities.
 * 13. Living in a big city is better than living in a small town.**


 * 14. Plastic surgeries: A way to become more beautiful, or someone's unhealthy idea? **
 * -<span style="font-family: Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-weight: normal;">Living in a society where everyone is practically judged by image, why do some people question the assets behind plastic surgery? Girls want to have the body like Britney Spears and the guys want the body of Brad Pitt because in the eyes of the general public to be “beautiful” you have to look like them. If a teenager is growing up over weight more than likely they have been teased by peers and often wanted to change something about themselves. I ask this, if it is wrong to change “what God gave you” then people should be looked differently upon if they dye their hair or go tanning. Plastic surgery is changing something about ones self that they don’t like. Whether it is for bigger breasts in females or larger calves in males it can basically be correlated along with the simple act of dying ones hair. **
 * <span style="color: #102614; font-family: Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-weight: normal; line-height: 22px;">It is hard growing up with something about yourself that you do not like. On covers of practically every magazine we see physically fit and beautiful male and female models. That sends the message to viewers; “This is beautiful. Look like this to fit in.” Being thin and in shape is shoved down our throats every day, so I say to those who aspire to look like the models, use everything our society has to offer. Most people do know that diets do not always work, and when one is desperate to flake off their excess pounds there should be no negativity when it comes to their choice of getting an operation to make themselves feel better about how they look. **
 * <span style="color: #102614; font-family: Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-weight: normal; line-height: 22px;">When getting plastic surgery, many problems can arise. According to brainevent.com, “ Some plastic surgeries can be dangerous because foreign material, such as an implant is inserted into the body and can be rejected” (Battalion). There is a heightened risk attached to teen plastic surgery because their bodies are still in the process of growing and there is no way of telling how the body will deal with the implants when the body is fully matured. Their bodies may become distorted and disfigured as the grow older. **
 * <span style="color: #102614; font-family: Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-weight: normal; line-height: 22px;">Plastic surgery should be reserved for those who desperately need it. **
 * <span style="color: #102614; font-family: Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-weight: normal; line-height: 22px;"> And that’s exactly what plastic surgery is needed for. It should be favored negatively for the reason of falsifying what people think of themselves and plastic surgery should be kept for extreme cases. These cases include children who have cleft lips, or an extremely overweight person who needs liposuction to live. Cosmetic surgery and plastic surgery is needed only when it is greatly needed by someone. Plastic surgery is something that will change a person’s life for the better, if they need it. A person should do it not for beauty, but for need; and that’s what people should remember these days, not about the celebrity who got a botched face lift. They should look at the little boy whose life is saved by having his cleft lip fixed or the women who had liposuction so she could live normally. **


 * 15. I have my own view of marriage. **
 * <span style="color: #102614; font-family: Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-weight: normal; line-height: 22px;">- Our world has become a small village with the advent of globalization and its aftermath, but what is the basis of society and what keeps it tied together? Family is no doubt the basic foundation of any nation and it is the haven where citizens are raised and acquire their values, traditions and customs. It is therefore extremely important to think of marriage as it is the only way to form a family. **
 * <span style="color: #102614; font-family: Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-weight: normal; line-height: 22px;">Marriage is the bond that ties a couple together in order to create a family that should provide warmth and happiness to husband, wife and children. However, this is not the case in all marriages as the rate of divorce has increased drastically. So what are the reasons behind divorce and how could we solve this problem which is taking its toll of human life and society and the nation as a whole. **
 * <span style="color: #102614; font-family: Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-weight: normal; line-height: 22px;"> The first major reason is the difficulty to adapt to a new life with its demanding responsibilities. The young wife imagines that her new married life will be full of ease happiness and love. She expects to have a maid to do all the housework. She assumes that her husband will continue expressing his love to her as during their engagement. **
 * <span style="color: #102614; font-family: Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-weight: normal; line-height: 22px;"> On the other hand, the husband thinks he will have everything at the tip of his fingers as his wife would obey all his orders and would provide him with all his needs. Thus both couples are faced with the shocking fact of the reality of marriage. **
 * <span style="color: #102614; font-family: Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-weight: normal; line-height: 22px;"> A second reason that causes divorce is the increasing demands of children especially when they are newly born. In nine months the couple may have to endure lack of sleep and the constant crying of babies that sometimes drive mothers to depression and alienation. The father sometimes is asked to share in the responsibility but in most cases he rejects this as the male role is always tied to work and providing for the family. As the mother is overburdened with the responsibilities of her children a gap is created and she loses touch with her husband who seeks his friends. All in all their former relationship is destroyed. **
 * <span style="color: #102614; font-family: Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-weight: normal; line-height: 22px;"> Last but not least, the reaction of the married couples varies from one person to another. Some wives refuse to accept the fact that marriage is just a new stage not a prison where they are tied down to certain unending daily chores. Their rejection is perceived in total negligence and disregard to their duties toward husband and children. Other wives tend to compare between their status and responsibilities and that of their husbands. They feel jealous because their husbands are at work spending most of their day in a stimulating and challenging atmosphere. While on the other hand they are left all alone with whining babies who never give their moms any peace or quiet. In short marriage to them becomes a nightmare and is not what they expected it to be. **
 * <span style="color: #102614; font-family: Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-weight: normal; line-height: 22px;"> In conclusion, marriage is essentially important in building families and thus it is of utmost significance to tackle the problems that lead to divorce and to try to solve them. Thus the rate of divorce will decrease and children will enjoy living with both parents and the whole society will be stable and happy. **

Why is it that one half of American women color their hair, and forty percent of them color it to a shade of blonde? Despite the fact that only sixteen percent of all American girls are born blonde, forty percent of all Playboy Playmates are blonde. Our society is so infatuated with blondes that parents even want their children to be blond. Ads for egg donors go as far as to offer bonuses for blonde donors. The portrayal of blondes throughout history can be held accountable for these sometimes not so obvious preferences. <span style="color: #102614; font-family: Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; line-height: 22px;"> The Macedonian women of today can never be too thin or too pretty, like in the past. In most cases thin equates beauty, so the present ideal Standard in a radiantly healthy, young women. In magazines stuffed with models And advertisements, billboards on the highway, and a message of what women Should look like everywhere, advertisers manipulate women into thinking their Value is dependent on their physical appearance. They appeal to those women <span style="color: #102614; font-family: Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; line-height: 22px;"> Because they want to be wanted, accepted and sexually attractive. This manipulation of perception on what is “ideal” leads to concern in <span style="color: #102614; font-family: Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; line-height: 22px;">Relation to the teenagers of this country. The television is one of the most Influential technologies of all time, replacing the real role models and teachers. The media teaches what’s feminine, what’s cool, what’s sexy, and what’s romantic. In conclusion, what is the result of this endeavor for perfection? One out of Every four college aged women has an eating disorder? Psychological study in 1995 found that three minutes spent looking at models in a fashion magazine Caused seventy percent of women feel guilty and shameful. Fifty percent of American women are dieting and seventy-five percent of “normal” weight women Think they are too fat. What question remains…is this healthy? Is the current Image for the “ideal women” healthy for the women of Macedonia? It is “ideal”...

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> - The practice of contraception is as old as human existence. For centuries, humans have relied on their imagination to avoid pregnancy. Ancient writings noted on the Kahun papyrus dating to 1850 BCE refer to contraceptive techniques using a vaginal pessary of crocodile dung and fermented dough, which most likely created a hostile environment for sperm. The Kahun papyrus also refers to vaginal plugs of gum, honey, and acacia. During the early second century in Rome, Soranus of Ephesus created a highly acidic concoction of fruits, nuts, and wool that was placed at the cervical os to create a spermicidal barrier. <span style="font-family: arial,sans-serif; line-height: normal;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Today, the voluntary control of fertility is of paramount importance to modern society. From a global perspective, countries currently face the crisis of rapid population growth that has begun to threaten human survival. At the present rate, the population of the world will double in 40 years; in several of the more socioeconomically disadvantaged countries, populations will double in less than 20 years. On a smaller scale, effective control of reproduction can be essential to a woman's ability to achieve her individual goals and to contribute to her sense of well-being. A patient's choice of contraceptive method involves factors such as efficacy, safety, noncontraceptive benefits, cost, and personal considerations. This article addresses the predominant modes of contraception used in the United States, along with the safety, efficacy, advantages, disadvantages, and noncontraceptive benefits of each. <span style="color: #102614; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; line-height: 22px;">A century ago, sexual intercourse before marriage was forbidden. Along with fashion, and women’s rights, this trend among young people has changed dramatically. Unfortunately, young people today are not more educated about sexual intercourse than young people at the turn of the century. Although abstinence is the best for of birth control, adolescents today continue to engage in sexual intercourse, and school boards need to recognize that education, as well as available contraception, in all schools is the only effective method of fighting teenage pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases. <span style="color: #102614; font-family: Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 22px;"> The prevention of teenage pregnancy not only protects young people today, but also the future young people that would be brought into the world. If the frequency of sexual activity cannot be lowered, the frequency of teenage pregnancies, and sexually transmitted diseases can be. Common ground lies in the good intentions for today’s young people. Everyone wants today’s youth to become successful, well-rounded adults. Schools need to realize that youth today are dealing with issues that young people have never had to think about before. Abstinence is the best form of birth control, however, in a society where abstinence is not always an option, education and contraception need to be available in schools for all students.

- <span style="color: #102614; font-family: Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; line-height: 26px;">The time in which humans leave the stage of being a child is a very difficult time for both the person and their parents. Being a teenager means that you have many more tasks to accomplish and many more physical and emotional changes to go through. The changes that teenagers experience are those among sexual activity, violence, and drug abuse. Many wonder what exactly creates these changes, and whether it is more than just hormones. <span style="color: #102614; font-family: Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; line-height: 26px;">The moment when one enters teenage life, they encounter complexity and experiment with new things. Among these things include sex, drugs, and violence. Teens behave differently and act differently to peer and parents. Since media has such a great effect on how teenagers behave, hopefully it will start to portray positive images of teen actions instead of negative. <span style="color: #102614; font-family: Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; line-height: 22px;">As a person goes from child to teen they are faced with many changes and choices. One big decision teens often have to make is weather or not to try drugs there are many different factors which can influence this decision. Teen drug use is a critical issue. While there are many reasons why teens use drugs, none of them justify its use and abuse. Also, teen drug use is not getting better. It is getting worse. More teens are looking to drugs to experiment with, escape reality, to solve their problems, or any other number of reasons. Various reasons were explained. A few theories were elaborated on. Some shocking statistics were revealed. What does all of this tell you? It tells you that we are losing the war on drugs, and that if we ultimately lose, our entire society will become nothing more than a waste of potential. <span style="color: #102614; font-family: Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; line-height: 22px;">- While children need no permission from their parents to become parents, 30 states currently have laws in effect, or scheduled to take effect, that mandate parental consent or notification prior to a minor’s abortion. Most of these states, however, allow a minor mother to place her child for adoption without her parents’ involvement. Legislators in these states have decided, in effect, that while young women may not be mature enough to decide for themselves to terminate a pregnancy, they are all mature enough to become mothers and to make medical and other life decisions for their children.

**<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">What am I good at? **
I don't know who are my talents but I'm sure that I'm very good at so many things. I don't have any special talent, or maybe I will wonder it later... When I was younger I was drawing. I loved to do paintings and I was painting all day. I joined in a lot of drawing projects and competitions. When I had 13 years, my drawing was exhibited at an exhibition in Austria. Later, when I was 14 I went on competition for Maths and Physics. I was 5th place :D and I was very happy. My Maths-Teacher told me that I'm great mathematician. When I had 15 years I played basketball and I trained basketball. The coach was praising me all the time. 1 year later I stopped training basketball because I didn't had enough time. I had to study a lot at school and I went on competition for Sociology. I was ranked on 3th place and my Sociology-Teacher was very proud of me. Now I'm interested in business, marketing and economy and I HAVE NO IDEA what is next... but I'm sure that I'll never stop at any place :-D

Is love on Internet possible?!
I don't believe that love exist anyway, but people who believe that love exist maybe have an Internet-Lover. I think that nobody will love you as the way you are. People will love you only if they get something from you if you are rich or beautiful. If love on Internet was possible I think that won't be a real love, because you can't see is that person really that person which is communicating with you on Internet. We know that almost everyone lies for his\her informations on Internet so we shouldn't fall in love with someone that we don't know in real life. And also I'm sure that we shouldn't believe on everyone on Internet because maybe if we met him\her we will be disappointed. We can have friends from Internet. That's really nice, especially if they are from other countries and if they are as old as we are. BUT a boyfriend\girlfriend on Internet looks really horrible. Maybe there exist someone who have that kind of relationships but anyway, I don't like that. :-)

A letter for Santa Claus.
Dear Santa, I know I'm an idiot because I'm writing this but I must :-/ I don't believe that you exist. I think you are not real, that's why I'll tell you my unreal thoughts.

If you ever come to me I want you to bring me a pink Hummer for New Year. Also I want a new lap top, palmtop, HTC-Desire mobile phone (or BlackBerry-Torch), a lot of money and.... and.... and even more money :D That's all !!! :$

Thank you in advance. Sincerely, Angela :-)

--> MACEDONIA <--
My country is the southern of Europe. We are very small country, but we have our own parliament and government. There are more than 2 millions of us. We have a lot of mountains, lakes and rivers, but we don't have sea or ocean. Foreigners are visiting Macedonia for hunting or holiday. Everything looks cheap to the foreigners, but for our standard it is not :-) Foreigners like hunting in Macedonia because of variety of animals and the great nature here. They also like visiting my country for vacation because it is very cheap and we make a great parties. Also, in Dojran, the lake is very healthy, but in Ohrid.. there is the best nightlife you have ever seen. BUT, the saddest thing is that we, Macedonians, do NOT know to appreciate our natural beauty and resources.

(while other have everything else what they want) :-/
 * And I'd like to say that there are only 2.000.000 people in the world who have privilege to live in Macedonia :-)

Top 5 cities in the world with biggest population:

Problems in the biggest cities :-/
 * 1) <span style="color: #333333; font-family: arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif; line-height: 16px;">The rush hour on the train is a nightmare. It's like human hamburger. If you want to drive it;s impossible and it's expensive (and you pay to use highway) You can't do anything about this cause it's just too much people.
 * 2) <span style="color: #366388; font-family: arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif; line-height: 16px;">Man and woman <span style="color: #333333; font-family: arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif; line-height: 16px;"> are not equal. But it works both ways. All man has to work and married woman can't get good jobs. This is changing as time goes on because many young woman works now. The other way around is the train problem. Like I said trains are crowded.
 * 3) <span style="color: #333333; font-family: arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif; line-height: 16px;">They work WAY TOO MUCH. Man work from 6 in the morning to midnight. They don't even see their families. They even work on weekends. Some people live in the office. They don't follow the 8 hour shift and the competition is too great for you to say no. This is related to over population and the growing economy.
 * 4) <span style="color: #333333; font-family: arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif; line-height: 16px;">I think this is example how the big number of competitors can be GREAT REASON to make people think more and do more. We can see that almost everything we bye is "Made in China", "Made in India" ...Korea...Japan... ;-)

<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 16px; line-height: 23px;">**What a lovely baby!**
<span style="background-color: #fc88d3; display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 110%; text-align: left;">I was born in the hospital in Gostivar, on the 03th of july, 1994. I was born on Sunday at 16:00h, just like my older brother was. When I was born, my father was with my mother in the hospital. They called my grandparents to come and my brothers with them. When they came, my aunt was holding me in her arms, but my oldest brother caught me from her and run over the hospital. He was very happy but my father was very angry. <span style="background-color: #fc88d3; display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 110%; text-align: left;">I'm born as third (and last) child in my family as my father was. When I was born my father was 35 years old and my mother was 34. They felt very happy for having girl, because before I was born they had only two boys and they wished a girl, especially my father, that's why I'm daddy's little princess. <span style="background-color: #fc88d3; display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 110%; text-align: left;">My mother is saying that I was perfect baby, she doesn't had problems to feed, to look after me and I never cried except when I was sick. When I first came at home, I slept in my parent's room. But when I grow up (2 -3 years) I was in other room. The room had a lot of toys, especially dolls, because I love dolls. <span style="background-color: #fc88d3; display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 110%; text-align: left;">When I had only 9 months I started to go in kindergarten because my mum should go on work and my father too, my brothers were young and there was nobody to look after me. I learnt to walk when I had 8 months and I learnt to speak when I had 9 months. I don't remember what I was doing when I was baby, but I remember that I learnt to read when I was 4 years old. I spent all my childhood in kindergarten but I'm happy for that because I learnt to read and I met a lot of friends there. <span style="background-color: #fc88d3; display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 110%; text-align: left;">What a great day. <span style="background-color: #fc88d3; display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 110%; text-align: left;">My worst moment ever. <span style="background-color: #fc88d3; display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 110%; text-align: left;">My friends. <span style="background-color: #fc88d3; display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 110%; text-align: left;">What I like doing. <span style="background-color: #fc88d3; display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 110%; text-align: left;">My best holiday.

Дубаи е една од седумте Емирати и најнаселен град на Обединетите Арапски Емирати.Таа е лоцирана по должината на јужниот брег на Персискиот Залив,на Арапскиот полуостров.Многу малку се знае за пред-Исламската култура во југо-исток од Арапскиот Полуостров, освен дека многу антички градови во регионот се трговски центри меѓу Источниот и Западниот свет. Градот на Дубаи бил важна порта на повик за странските трговци,главно оние од Индија,од кои многумина подоцна се населиле во градот. Дубаи е познат по извозот на својот бисер од 1930-тите. 'Дубаи' бисерната индустрија билa оштетена непоправливo од настаните од Првата светска војна,а подоцна и од Големата депресија во доцните 1920-тите. Место кое би сакала најмногу да го посетам е Дубаи.Сакам да го посетам во било кое време. Ми се допаѓа тоа место затоа што тамy има многy убави и големи градби,водата е си ситен песок,плажите се прекрасни итн.Најмногу би сакала да го посетам зимскиот центар во Дубаи кој е изграден под земја и таму работат постојано вентилатори за да го ладат воздухот и не дозволува снегот да се топи. Во Дубаи друштво во зимскиот центар сакам да ми прави мојот брат бидејkи тој е одличен скијач и со него одлично се забавуваме.Би сакала да ги посетам вештачките остроvи кои ги градаат во Дубаи и ја симболизираат планетата Земја,а за патување до таму се разбира дека би одела со авион бидејkи со некое друго превозно средство невозможно е да се одидејkи е м биногу далеку.
