RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) - all interior and exterior Maria Boreth de Souza small home in the lower middle-class district of Rio de Janeiro Olaria screams Flamengo Rio de Janeiro Brazil's most popular soccer team.
The concrete houses is in the Club colours of red and black lacquer. The living room and bedroom are decorated with Flamengo Rio de Janeiro jerseys, flags, beer mugs and other team memorabilia. Even a curtain before their kitchen is a plastic Flamengo Rio de Janeiro flag.
The 63-year-old Souza, who is one of the most die-hard fans of the legendary team, has become a symbol in her own right over the years.
She is equally fanatical about Brazil's national team. "I pray that they win the World Cup," she said of the tournament, which begins in Brazil on December 12.
"Loses the tournament, which packs the statue of Christ of the Redeemer Brazil his bag and leave the town forever," she said.
Dressed in a Flamengo Rio de Janeiro uniform or with a team flag Zenica is draped over her shoulders, a well-known sight in their neighborhood and in the Maracana Stadium.
"I go into every game playing Flamengo Rio de Janeiro at the Maracana, where I always with open arms by players and fans of Flamengo am applauds you Rio de Janeiro and the teams, where to play against." They all hug me and ask for my autograph, "she said, adding that Flamengo of Rio de Janeiro became an honorary member in 2010.
She said that at the age of seven, that she her home escaped, because it mistreated their parents. "I lived on the road for ten years to beg for food and money, here and there odd jobs and selling candy. I have never stolen or with drugs to do."
Things started changing Souza, prefers to invoke ZICA, she gave the nickname even in honor of former Brazilian football great Zico was wandering aimlessly through the streets of Rio at the age of 17.
"It was Christmas and it was my birthday. I got tired and sat down to rest on the pavement. Suddenly a lady patted me on the back, asked me if I was all right and invited me to his home for dinner."
The wife was mother Zico. And her son, a rising star in Flamengo was at the dinner.
From that day on Zenica says, their loyalty to Flamengo Rio de Janeiro has never wavered.
For the next 12 years, she says parents, she lived in the houses of Zico and Zico House work "small such as watering the plants and taking care of children. I was never like a girl, but as a member of the family treated."
When she was 29, Zico persuaded parents you back home, to care for their sick parents. "they died shortly after my return and I inherited her house."
Roughly at the same time that she met and married her husband, Calitoel. They met at a game in Flamengo of Rio de Janeiro.
They have a daughter, Vanessa, and three grandchildren. Her son, Thiago, died in a motorcycle accident a few years ago.
Remove the trash, washing the dishes or laundry not like make it or break moments for EHEN-- but according to a new study, as appears there are domestic work strongly influenced relationship satisfaction divided.
Study recently published in sex roles, researchers 220 studied fresh married couples who had married within the last 24 months.
The participants were provided with a questionnaire, two things measured: cognitive egalitarianism (i.e., male and female household of pairs of tasks perceive) and behavioral egalitarianism (as indeed couples the households tasks divided). The participants were asked not to respond to discuss with their spouses.
After examining the results, found marital researchers, that affected an unequal division of domestic work women satisfaction, especially, if women believed that the roles should be more equal. The same was not true for men.
"These results were interesting because in General marital satisfaction in only one spouse is studied. Here, we could see what happens if there is a discrepancy in the spouse attitude on this issue, '' said Brian G. Ogolsky, a lead author of the study, in a press release. "If a woman believes that domestic work should be split evenly, what happens when they have a traditional question approach?" The most satisfied couples have similar expectations and follow through on them."
"For men, do not share household tasks as related directly to their satisfaction." Either they do not realize that there is a discrepancy, or they have the idea that women belongs to the [home work], "he said.
The food? Ogolsky notes that because expectations play a big role in marital happiness, couples should discuss these issues at an early stage. "Bride and groom need to carefully plan how they develop their expectations to share tasks in real life can make, especially if the new spouse greatly appreciate work gender equality in the household." This problem only more matter will start after the children arrive, "he advised.

Excerpt:
For many years, I have lived with the secret of Deep Throat's identity. It has been hell, and I have dealt with the situation by telling pretty much anyone who asked me, including total strangers, who Deep Throat was. Not for nothing is indiscretion my middle name.
Excerpt:
Today, our nation is fighting two wars: one abroad and one at home. While the war in Iraq is in the headlines, the other war is still being fought on our own streets. Its casualties are the wasted lives of our own citizens.
I am speaking of the war on drugs.
And I cannot help but wonder how many more lives, and how much more money, will be wasted before another Robert McNamara admits what is plain for all to see: the war on drugs is a failure.
Excerpt:
Just as there are "novelists" and then "women novelists," there are "movies" and then "chick flicks." Whoever is in power takes over the noun -- and the norm -- while the less powerful get an adjective. Thus, we read about "African American doctors" but not "European American doctors," "Hispanic leaders" but not "Anglo leaders," "gay soldiers" but not "heterosexual soldiers," and so on.
With Rev. Wright's retirement and the ascension of my new pastor, Rev. Otis Moss, III, Michelle and I look forward to continuing a relationship with a church that has done so much good. And while Rev. Wright's statements have pained and angered me, I believe that Americans will judge me not on the basis of what someone else said, but on the basis of who I am and what I believe in; on my values, judgment and experience to be President of the United States.
Yeah, I'm disappointed, too. I thought we were sweeping into power; I thought change meant Change. I believed all that talk about another First 100 Days, a la Roosevelt. Well, that didn't happen. The question is, is this as good as it gets from Obama, or is he pacing himself? He may have a four and eight-year plan and they included a first year of just gettin' to know you and not gonna rock the boat too much. Well, Mission Accomplished on that.
It's still too early to lose hope in a guy as smart and talented as Barack Obama. But I would counsel him to remember: If you're going undercover to infiltrate how Washington works, so you become one of them for a while, to gain their confidence, well, it can be just like all those movies where a cop goes deep, deep, DEEP undercover with drug people and -- fuck, he's a drug addict, too!
"Unless you've never worn leather shoes, sat upon a leather chair or eaten meat, save your condemnation."
You're right, Sarah, we'll all just go fuck ourselves now.
The snotty quote was posted by Sarah Palin on (like all the great frontier women who've come before her) her Facebook page to respond to the criticism she knew and hoped would be coming after she hunted, killed and carved up a Caribou during a segment of her truly awful reality show, Sarah Palin's Alaska, broadcast on The-Now-Hilariously-Titled Learning Channel.
Excerpt:
The problem is not men, it's you. Sure, there are lame men out there, but they're not really standing in your way. Because the fact is -- if whatever you're doing right now was going to get you married, you'd already have a ring on. So without further ado, let's look at the top six reasons why you're not married.
Excerpt:
We can use all the excuses we want or hide behind the words of an amendment that was written in the 18th century that references "a well-regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State," as reasons for not doing anything about the disease that has infected our entire nation. This is not an issue of good people abusing the right to bear arms. This is an issue of too many guns that are too easily available that are killing too many people.
And what of liberty? A view taken by many apologists for massive surveillance holds that liberty is what is left once you have subtracted all the obedience and good behavior required by government to secure for the people a long life. But nothing could be more remote from the spirit of liberty. The Declaration of Independence -- with which the Constitution means to be as consistent as a framework of laws can possibly be -- holds instead that liberty is integral. It is not something you can add or subtract bits of. Liberty denotes the condition of the person who judges for himself, and whose actions are not constrained by an external power hidden from himself.

An old ring-shaped structure in southern Alberta, Canada, probably formed when a Meteor into the Earth, producing a 5-mile wide (8 miles) craters smash. Enough energy to a region that would produce to destroy area in New York City, researchers say the effects.
This is a card that you may create city structure and the shape of the crater bow by a gigantic meteorite. Meters above the sea level shows color variations.
A geologist discovered the structure near the village in the town of bow, although time and glacier undermine in particular the character of the ancient meteorite strikes. Scientists can not say with certainty that a meteorite of bow city crater created, but seismic and geological findings support this idea.
"Effects of this magnitude would kill everything for pretty far," Doug Schmitt, a stone-physics at the University of Alberta, Canada, said in a statement. If the strike happened today, the city of Calgary, the 125 miles (200 km) to the Northwest, would be "completely fried" and in Edmonton, the 300 miles (500 km) Northwest, "each window would have been blown", he added. [See pictures of bow city, crater & other impact craters]
Researchers say that the collision occurred over the last 70 million years. Disintegrated in the meantime about a 1-mile deep (1.5 km) layer of the sediment, making it hard to grasp the exact date when an object out of the crater carved.
Links are only the "roots" of the crater, a semicircular Groove with a point in the middle. The crater was strong enough probably 1 to 1.5 miles (1.6 to 2.4 km deep) - to decimate the most lives in the area, the researchers said. The object that would have sprayed debris pummeled many, from the crater could have affected all over the world, possibly for decades, she said.
Geologist Paul Glombick discovered site effects in 2009, as he was to map geological area of the Alberta geological survey. Glombick discovered the strange structure in existing geophysical log data from the oil and gas industry. The Alberta geological survey contacted Schmidt and his colleagues, who confirmed the structure with seismic data from the industry.
The discovery was detailed online ahead of print in the journal Meteoritics & planetary science.
