sTaNd Up COMEDY

Do you know what stand up comedy is?
Well it's really caught on here in Brazil nowadays.
It's basically one guy, standing there with a microfone and an audience staring at him waiting either to have a colapse of laughing or to throw tomatoes at him....Describing it this way seems boring but in fact it's really nice.
Normally it goes fine, except when Jim Carrey tries doing it...whoa!!!! Don't even try watching Robbin Willians ones...
There's a nice guy, Mitch Fatel, who's really funny but you guys have to check his videos by yourselves.kkkk

Here's a video of BERT KREISCHER,you'll find more funny stuff in this site:

"I gotta feeling that today's gonna be a GOOD day..."


Oprah is a highest rating show in the American history. It is a syndicated show hosted by Oprah Winfrey. She was highly surprised on the mind blowing performance of Black Eyed Peas. BEP presented a different thing which has never shown earlier. She was completely unaware with such kind of response by the public. As she said that, it was the best performance during all of her career.It was a Flash Mob Dance which spread only in few minutes among all the 20000 crud. Waooo, it was amazing, it was outclass, it was glamorous, it was really full of surprise. The dance started from single women and rapidly it spread among all of the people, gathered there. Oprah the host of the show was much surprise on this out class reaction of the crud. She commented on the performance that, “That was the coolest thing ever!!!”.

Peters mother has three children nicolas, penny, and guess the third child?

Kanye West, The Rude



Oh-my-God, that's the rudest thing I've ever seen during a VMA (Video Music Award, it's given to the best video clips of the year). We all know that Beyonce rocks and that she's "a little" better than Taylor Swift, the blond teenager. But if Taylor got an award, it's because she deserved it. Kanye shouldn't have done that, look at the girl's face when he leaves, she looks terribly sad... it was her first award, by the way. I imagine how disappointed she was. Her first award, her friends and family watching her and this very unpolite man takes off the mic of her hand and just say "hey, you're good but Beyonce is better. Bye!".
Poor Taylor! I think she must have cried a lot after she left the stage.

I hope your week is better than Taylor's, LOL.

Lollipop

Origins
In 1908, American candy maker George Smith manufactured the first hard candy on a stick, which he named after a race horse called Lolly Pop, according to Lollies Galore. The name was the exclusive property of Smith until he stopped making the candies during the Depression.

Ingredients
Encyclopedia.com reports that the most common ingredients in lollipops are corn syrup, flavorings, water, sugar and malic or citric acid.

Nutrition
Though they are high in sugar, lollipops are typically fat free and are about 25 calories each, depending on their size.

Machinery
The first machine used for automated lollipop production was made in Racine, Wisconsin in 1908. Those first machines made only 40 lollipops and hour, while machines used in the modern production of lollipops can make 5,900, according to the National Confectioners Association.

Celebration
National Lollipop Day is July 20.

Largest Lollipop
At 4,031 pounds, 18.9 inches in thickness and 15 feet in height, a cherry lollipop as tall as a giraffe was made on June 25, 2002.

vOcAbULaRy!



Hello there!

I was checking some stuff in Macmillan's site (again...) when I came across
"The ten best vocabulary learning tips". Nice!
It is in student's section, check it out and see some really nice stuff.

There you can find many tips and games to practice anything you learn from there.

It's funny!
Here's the link of the vocabulary games:
http://www.sheppardsoftware.com/web_games_vocab_sat.htm

You can choose from a large number of games and test your knowledge as well as your pronunciation listening to the word before you try to figure it out.


Here's the one I played (and I liked it a lot).

Repeat the word carefully and have fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Are you an addict? I can help you!


How many of these simbols are you familiar with? Do you usually spend hours in front of the computer and forget to do the real important things, like paying your bills or calling your mother?

First, you need to aknowledge your problem. Only by admitting that you can't stop accessing is that you'll be able to help yourself.

Then, repeat with me: I can do it! I can get over my internet addiction! "There can be miracles, when you believe"

Also try doing those things you've always wanted to: help your community, write that book, start up yoga, go to that nudist beach... Stay busy.

As an ex-addict I can give you some more advice. You can find me on facebook, orkut, msn, twitter etc and I'll gladly help you to break free.

Voyage Voyage
Kate Ryan

Au dessus des vieux volcans
Glissent tes ailes sous le tapis du vent
Voyage, voyage, eternellement.

De nuages em marecages
De ven d’Espagne em pluie d’Equateur
Voyage, voyage, vole dans le hauteurs
Au dessus des capitales, des idées fatales
Regard l’ocean

Voyage, voyage, plus loin que la nuit et le jour...
Voyage, dans l’espace inoui de l’amour.
Voyage, voyage, sur l’eau sacré d’un fleuve indien...
Voyage, et jamais ne revienne.

Sur le Gange ou l’Amazone
Chez les balcks, chez les sickhs, chez les jaunes
Voyage, voyage dans tout le royame

Sur le dunes du Sahara
De iles Fidjii, au Fujiyama
Voyage, voyage, ne t’arrêtes pas
Au dessus de barbelés, des coeurs bombardés
Regard l’ocean

Voyage, voyage, plus loin que la niut e le jour...
Voyage, dans l’espace inoui de l’amour.

Voyage voyage, plus loin que la niut e le jour…
Voyage, dans l’espace inoui de l’amour.
Voyage, voyage, sur l’eau sacré d’um fleuve indien…
Voyage, et jamais ne revienne.

IH students review local restaurants

Labaredas by Tadeu

The Labaredas restaurant, in Catalão, is the only restaurant I know in town. Actually, I have been there frequently and the food was always different, well prepared and warm. Another important aspect is the service, it is really satisfying and there are not many unnecessary things, I mean, the service is appropriate for this restaurant and this town.
Finally, I recommend this restaurant if you are in Catalão.

Churrascaria Gaúcha
by Natália

Churrascaria Gaúcha is located on Lamartine Pinto de Avelar. You can make reservations. The place is nice and beautiful. The service is fast and the waiters are extremely polite and attencious. There are a lot of types of salads and the meat is extremely delicious.
I love this restaurant.

Cantinas Sel-Service by Ricardo

Cantinas is a self-service restaurant that serves very good food and the food is always hot. They serve a lot of types of food bt the lasagna served there is always cold and looks bad. But in general, it is a good place to eat with good waiters to serve you.

Churrascaria Gaúcha by Jefferson

In the rastaurant the food is good. The buffet is special because the waiters are so fast, the meat is fresh and the beans are very good. The restaurant is on Avenida dr. Lamartine Pinto de Avelar. The parking lot is big and easy access. I like it so much.
