In May 2007 The Progeria Research Foundation (PRF) made history with the start of a first-ever clinical trial for children with Progeria, the rapid aging disease. 28 children from 16 countries travel to Childrens Hospital Boston every 4 months for 2 years, to test a drug that shows great promise to be an effective treatment. And just nine years ago there was nothing being done medically for these children! PRF is funding the trial, and as of January 2009 has raised $1.78 of the $2 million needed. We hope this video inspires you to support our ONE possible campaign to raise money for the trial. Please be ONE who makes the hope of a cure POSSIBLE! Please go to: www.onepossible.org to donate, and www.progeriaresearch.org for more information on Progeria and PRF's work.
 
 

CAUSES - November 26, 2011 20:49 PM

Everybody has their own Top 10 scariest movies, so here it is mine:
 
1. "The Exorcist" (1973)
I was about 5 the first time I watched it and yes, it scared the shit out of me. The real terror of "The Exorcist" may not involve Satan and possession, but the helplessness of a parent trying to save a child. Of course, a ton of harrowing special effects and director William Friedkin's somber respect for the supernatural subject matter doesn't hurt either. It's horror for grown-ups.
 
2. "Psycho" (1960)
Alfred Hitchcock's blueprint for contemporary horror: More than just a film, "Psycho" was a cultural slap in the face. Censors wanted to ban it, while screaming audiences couldn't get enough of it. Hitch employs all of his tricks - shifting audience sympathies, killing off the main character halfway through the film and a ton of macabre humor - but more importantly he makes the horror internal. Norman Bates isn't a monster in the classic sense; he suggests that the greatest evil can lurk beneath the quietest, most pleasant surface. And no one, of course, can possibly match Anthony Perkins' amazing, subtle and creepy performance as Norman Bates.
 
3. "Poltergeist" (1982)
This is still one of the best ghost stories ever made. The film takes the safety and ordinaryness of the American suburb and turns it into a house of horrors. And it all begins with some strange and amusing poltergeist activity in a young family's home, and gets serious when five-year-old Carol Anne disappears. A team of paranormal investigators is called in, but it's a task none of them are quite prepared for.

 
4. "The Silence of the Lambs" (1991)
Jodie Foster never signed back onto the "Lecter" franchise, and that's all the more reason to watch the original as many times as you can stomach it. Lecter versus Starling. Hopkins versus Foster. Buffalo Bill, in night-vision goggles and a human-skin suit, versus the world. All that psychological suspense aside, we know you jumped 35 feet in the air when Lecter snapped suddenly at the glass... Go on, fess up.

 
5. "The Sixth Sense" (1999)
Nine-year-old Cole Sear (Haley Joel Osment) always seems disturbed, frightened... and his mother cannot figure out why. He finally confesses to psychiatrist Malcolm Crowe (Bruce Willis) that it's because he sees dead people - everywhere... and they're not always pleasant to look at. This movie has a surprising ending!

 
6. "Nightmare on Elm Street" (1984)
Before dream-killer Freddy Krueger became a quipping pop-culture reference, he represented the most twisted monster unleashed on the public since Halloween's Michael Myers. Seeking vengeance by slicing and dicing the children of the parents who murdered him, Freddy scared the hell out of Cineplex audiences. His on-screen entrance remains terrifying, as does much of director Wes Craven's surreal, smart and shocking masterpiece.
 
7. "The Fly" (1986)
What do you get when you cross a classic Kafka tale, a lot of goop, Geena Davis, and Jeff Goldblum? No, the answer's not "Reading Rainbow." "The Fly" is a psychological thriller as it flips human morality on its head (think twice before you crush that little ant under your foot). The movie also has enough special effects to make your stomach churn; and that maggot scene, well… you get the idea.
 
8. "Halloween" (197
It was all downhill from here on out for Jamie Lee Curtis. And we mean that. Would she ever scream like this again? Hide in a closet while a very persistent Michael Myers spent about, oh, say, 78 minutes trying to hack through the door? Did we mention she's related to the killer? Little known fact: John Carpenter wrote the theme song himself. Genius like that doesn't come along many times in a lifetime, folks.
 
9. "Alien" (1979)
Sigourney Weaver: hot. Alien monster: ugly. Throw them together in a futuristic, highly stylized space battleground: beautiful. And terrifying. "Alien" was important not least because it showed that the science-fiction horror genre was one of possibility - this movie was also intelligently rendered, psychologically powerful, and, well, gross. Where else can find a bloody creature being birthed from a human surrogate?
 
10. "The Ring" (2002)
Naomi Watts. Very good looking, yes. Sassy? Yep. Try squaring her off against a weird chick who really wants to climb out of a well and kill people and eat their guts. OK, well maybe she doesn't want to eat their guts. But she does a good job of killing a lot of people in this cinematically beautiful horror romp - and she scares the bejeezus out of Naomi Watts in the process. Hey, that little kid playing the doomed son is cute, but kinda freaky. Extra points for that.

ENTERTAINMENT - October 03, 2011 17:16 PM

These days I have found on the net lots of blogs showing pictures of dead people, accidents and so on. In one of them an angry blogger posted some videos of brutality against animals. I was with my babycat Muse, that someone put in my door some days ago (she is still smaller than my hand and I feed her and take care of her like if she was my babe girl) when I watched a videoclip of a woman stepping in a baby cat with high heels, screwing up the cats head while you could hear the poor thing agonizing.

I got shocked! I don´t know why cause I lost faith in humanity a long time ago. Everybody nowadays is so worried about making money, luxury, cellulitis that we forgat that the only thing that separates us from the animals it´s the use of our brains. Well, at least it should be, cause we have become a plague that destroys everything we touch. 

I wish I could find these people to give them a taste of their poison. A little animal has no way to defent itself. This is worse then cruelty, it´s inhumane, it´s disgusting. And I sent a message to the webmaster trying to discover where she finds these videos to complain to authorities about it. Being quiet seeing all of this is something I simply can´t do. Something has to be done, cause brutality and cruelty against humans, animals, the nature seems to have become something normal and this is sick!

Angel

Some days ago a terrible thing happened that let us Brazilian people completely lost, confused and horrifyed... a guy entered a school armed and after shooting children he killed himself in Rio de Janeiro. Already 11 children died and there are more pretty hurt in the hospital.

Nobody could ever imagine something like that would happen here and this hit us really hard.

In such situation I feel powerless and sad, so I thought of doing the only little thing I can do to help those parents that are mourning their beloved children right now... I would like to say a little prayer...

"Lord,

I pray now for those kids that died so young and innocent and their families that are suffering so much right now. I ask you to give them strength to go through this difficult moment and never forget to keep the faith in you. I ask you to bless them with wisdom to accept what cannot be changed and hope to keep going on since life is just a passing moment and one day we will be all with you.

Help us remember God, in this moment where the world seems to be loosing the way with war and hunger and violence, that we are all brothers and sisters in your name and help us also remember what you taught us to, that is to love each other, to forgive and have compassion.

Amen"

For a long time now search engines have become part of our daily lives. Anytime we need information about anything we just need to go online and get into a site like google for example, type the subject and we may find thousands of pages with information regarding that specific subject.

As a matter of fact google is one of the greatest search engines of all time and it even became a verb, it´s actually pretty common to hear:”I googled this, I googled that” for example.

Also one of the cheapest and best ways of marketing products and services nowadays is the search engine marketing. We know people are searching for things right now so why not look for affordable ways to get the most of our online presence and be easily found?

Online marketing has never been cheaper with pay per click ads and even better than this is that you can always get geo-targeting ads so people with geographic proximity can easily find you and this makes the buying and selling a much cheaper and safer experience.

It doesn´t matter what kind of business you have, if you´re selling something, giving advice or even if you just want your personal website to be seen, search engines are the best way to be found there is!

BUSINESS OPORTUNITIES - April 02, 2011 12:11 PM

private health insuranceThere is a brand new world at anyone´s fingertips at the internet.

Nowadays in the comfort of our homes we can shop online, do research, make friends, listen to music, play games and so much more.

I was surfing online one of these days and came across some private health insurance sites and I realized how easy and comfortable it is to research about all kinds of health insurance plans in details to find the package that fits all our needs.

And I got amazed cause if we don´t find the health insurance package that suits our budgets we can build our own personalised health insurance plan and apply for it instantly.

So imagine how wonderful it is that any housewife or house husband can now stop worrying so much like it was before cause it´s easier and faster than ever to find the perfect health insurance for their families at home while surfing the net.

Some years ago this would be impossible, isn´t it? Health insurance online? Who would think about that? but now with this new world that opened up, any information, any product or service is getting easier to be found online by any person with a computer and internet connection.

This is great isn´t it?
