Would you like to live longer?


It seems to be that one day in the not so distant future scientists are going to be able to extend humans life spans from the average of eighty years to six hundred, or even more according to recent experiments. Of course that sounds unbelievable and even too fictional, but thinking about what these scientists have been able to do with some worms, yeast, bacteria and mice by extending their life span, there is no reason to think that one day in the future they are not going to be able to do the same with humans too. Think about this, if they have been able to extend a worms life span from one week, to eight times that, wouldnt it be possible to extend our average 80 years of life span to eight times that too?

Amor Es...



Many people still remember the famous “Love Is…” the comic strip that was so popular in the seventies for the beautiful little notes that it came with. According toTribune Media Services, the strip was created by Kim Casali in the late 1960s, when she drew the cartoons as love notes for her boyfriend and future husband, Roberto. “It wasn’t until 1970 that her illustrations were revealed to the world”, and it was a big hit; everyone loved the little love note cartoons and they were published in newspapers, magazines, and cards worldwide. Kim Casali passed away in June 1997, and since then her son Sefano Casali, has continued publishing “Love Is…” with artist Bill Asprey, so the little cartoon continues to live bringing smiles to everyone and spreading the initial intention of Kim, little love notes to show love to your loved one.
