Greek syndrome is eating the Balkan - Greece's collapse will cause a drain of capital from the region?

Greek financial collapse could lead to a severe economic downturn in the region of the Balkans, as well as among other countries which are not in the euro area, but had years of business ties with Greece, warn economic analysts.

No one can predict how events will develop after the parliamentary elections on 17 July in Greece. Fears are not unfounded: Greek banks hold in their hands 15% of the charter capital of credit organizations of neighboring countries. Thus, the primary investments are invested in the economies of Bulgaria, Romania, Macedonia, Albania and Serbia.

Analysts warn of the possibility of a Greek bankruptcy and say that the switch from Euro into Drachma will have negative affect for the business in the region. European Bank for Reconstruction and Development makes a defensive ferrule around Greece, and according to the bank's claims, this could prevent a massive capital drain from the Balkans. Namely, the European Bank reached an agreement with three Austrian banks, large financial investors in the region, for the unfavorable liquidity in Eastern Europe.
Problems arise in the other Western Balkan countries that do not have the Euro, but are financially related with Greece. By itself this means it is possible a deeper crisis in the Balkan countries.
Analysts recall that something similar happened in 2008, when due to the complicated financial situation, the Scandinavian countries withdrew significant funds from banks in the Baltic States, and came to the economic downturn in the region. Because Balkan countries are more unstable in economic terms from the Baltic, the consequences can be very serious.
Analysts believe that the fast transition from Euro to Drachma is not possible. The process will take at least a few years. During that time other foreign banks, among others and Russian, can buy subsidiaries in these countries, and that way replacing the Greek capital.
Experts warn that the outflow of funds to Greece from its Balkan subsidiaries will cause panic among investors and they'll begin to invest in more reliable sources, such as Germany and Switzerland ..

Tattooing - who, what and how?

A tattoo is expensive, painful and permanent. Removing tattoos is more expensive, more painful, and sometimes impossible. For these reasons, inform yourself pretty good about tattooing, and before you decide to visit a tattoo studio, consider the following.

1. CONSIDER GOOD WHICH PART OF THE BODY TO TATTOO

If you don't want your tattoo to have an impact on your life and career (because there are still many people with prejudices, fact) don't tattoo body parts that can not be camouflaged with clothes, such as the hands, neck or face. The part of the body you choose should fit the image that you want on your skin, but should be suitable for covering with clothing (when this you need it).

2. DECISION WHAT TO TATTOO

Tattoos with Chinese, Japanese and Arabic characters are popular, but if you do not understand their meaning, you should not tattoo them, because you are not aware that one letter can have different meanings depending on the context.

3. BE WELL INFORMED WHERE TO PERFORM THE TATTOO

If you don't want to fall into the hands of an amateur who will exercise on you, an artist who is not so talented or with someone whose hygiene is not exactly a strong side with whom you can "attach" an infection, it is best to know someone who has already made ​​his tattoo there.

4. COLLABORATE WITH THE TATTOO ARTIST 

Most of the tattoo artists insist on conversation with the customer prior to tattooing. Do not tighten and just ask anything you would like, but be prepared to accept his suggestions about the colors, shadows, or the size of the tattoo. The more you work with the artist, so your tattoo will be prettier.

5. HYGIENE IS THE MOST IMPORTANT

Before the artist starts tattooing, you should insist to show you the sterilized equipment. This is the only way to make sure that you will not get a disease with the tattoo.

6. IT'S GOING TO HURT
If someone told you that tattooing does not hurt - he lied. Okay, the intensity of the pain depends on the size, of the place and the complexity of the tattoo. Those tattoos that are made over the bones and tendons (neck, back and leg ankle), sections with relatively little "meat" (legs, arms, wrists) and places with lots of nerve endings (warts, fingers, face) most hurt.

7. DO NOT TOUCH WHILE IT IS FRESH
The tattoo is a wound like any other. First off, let it dry, and then cover it to protect. No matter how hurts and itch and do not put anything on it, except fat, which for this purpose you have received from your tattoo artist. And most important - do not hands off. You will have it for a lifetime, so be careful not to ruin it.

MEDICAL ASPECTS

Tattooing is a way to decorate the body, but this way of decorating carries many risks. Tattoo means cutting the skin and injection of color in the mesoderm of the skin to make the desired picture.
Infectious diseases, skin problems, allergies, hepatitis, these are just some of the problems that you can have if you have a tattoo.
To reduce the risk of transmission of pathogenic bacteria, the artist who is tattooing must always use sterilized equipment, surgical gloves and masks, new needles, and unused bottles with paint for each new tattoo - none of these things should not be used again and to be shared  on several users.

People with more body tattoos have a higher risk of infection with hepatitis C, and other blood borne pathogens.

Other risks are Hepatitis C, fungal and bacterial infections. Risk also represent the chemicals in the tattoo ink, especially the use of tattoo ink that is not intended. Pigments in the ink used for printing and painting cars. Some of these substances can seriously harm the body, especially the kidneys, lungs and lymph nodes. Allergic reactions may occur several years after the placement of the tattoo.

So, before starting a tattoo, think twice if you really want a tattoo, and especially consider where you will put on your body. If you have decided to have a tattoo, then be careful when tattooing - a man who tattooed you must wear new surgical gloves, mask, and insist needles that will be used to be extracted in front of you, and to properly sterilize all equipment, and the skin where  the tattoo will be drawn to be erased with medical alcohol.

Cro Cop: All of you who want to fight for the money, forget it!

Mirko Filipovic has decided to send a message to everyone who appears before him in recent years and who have a great desire to engage in martial arts.

Apparently many are counting on entry into the world of combat sports for the money, but Cro Cop warns that this is the wrong way of thinking and thus are unlikely to get very far, especially not to a superior level.

"I received a lot of messages with questions related to training, and considering that I can not respond specifically to everyone, I will write it like this, so that all who are interested can easily see. The last one who wrote to me was a 17 years old boy asking whether he is to old to begin training, cause 'many' told him he is too old. Nonsense, those are the ideal years to start with serious training and please don't listen to people who have no idea about anything and feel dubbed to share lessons more or less about everything, and the only contact with martial arts for them were few seen shows of Fight Club on Eurosport."

"It's never too late to start practicing sports in general, and that refers to martial arts as well. Of course, to a man dealing with professional sports (from now on I'm just talking about martial arts), he should begin no later than about 18-19 years, and a lot depends on the genetic structure of the body, the talent and persistence, and each man is a special in this view. The biggest problem is the motive with which people enter the sport. Those who want to do martial arts to 'take the money', will never see the money."

"One guy wrote that he wants to involve in MMA, that he is 23 and wonders on how much profit he can count (I guess he wants to plan when to purchase). He will never see a nickle. Combat sports must be love, not a job, it should be strive for progress to be better than sparring partners, gradually to be the best in the club, to expand the horizons of local events. Opportunity for something more will come on itself if you possess the quality, but until then it MUST be a game and love, because who thinks about money, will never see it."

"That's how it is, it's the law of the sport. Everybody who did something, began so they can develop physically and mentally, to strengthen and to acquire the discipline, so they eventually proved to be an extraordinary talent, and then the opportunity for fights and earnings came by itself, and nobody of us planned that when we started with training. Some guys who have written  to me about this, read this pretty well and remember this, because I am completely right when I write you this." - said Mirko to all young fighters and those who would like to become.

In Josip Broz Tito's luxury bunker

33 years ago, inside the mountain Zlatar near Konjica in BiH, was built nuclear shelter that was the main command place of the former JNA (Jugoslavian National Army), and for that building knew only four official commanders, and workers who had to sign a contract for silence.

The construction of Tito's bunker lasted from 1953 to 1979 and cost $4.6 billion. Since the beginning of the construction of the bunker it was hidden by nature and three houses and therefore nothing could be seen that just under them is the most important object in the SFRY (Socialist Federative Republic of Yugoslavija) and her leader - Josip Broz Tito.

The bunker is composed of three parts. First masked part is visible from the outside, followed by supervisory residence, facility for rigorous insurance of the former president of Yugoslavia, Josip Broz Tito, and the facility for accommodation of technical support.

When passing through the hallway of the first house, a metal door opens with a thickness of 1.20 meters, and behind that door it can be found the tunnel that leads to the heart of nuclear hideout at a depth of 280 meters.

Tunnels are the link between the masked part and the nuclear hideout that can withstand a nuclear attack of 20 kilotons.

The last part of the object is in the form of a horseshoe and has 12 blocks. Inside are housed protection systems, fire prevention system, protection system against nuclear attack and climate.

The bunker has an alternative exit that does not exist on the map, and leads 170 meters high hill above the object.

More than a hundred sleeping rooms are located on an area of 6.854 square meters in which, in the case of nuclear attack, could sleep 350 people from the highest political and state peaks in Yugoslavia.

They could stay in the hideout for 6 months without any contact with the outside world. Despite the numerous rooms, significant place exist for Tito's luxury residence with five chambers.

The building is now owned by the Ministry of Defence of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and is guarded by five soldiers and it hosts cultural events.

NY Times Man of the Year 1938!

The prestige newspaper from the United States, New York Times, has it's practice to give a noble title to one man or women that marked the following year. The newspaper gives the award "Man of the Year", every year since 1927.

The criteria for someone to get this title is determined by how much anybody contributed to what was important for the year he was chosen for, not making an objective research which will include the past of that person.

On this list you can find names as glorified as Charles Lindbergh (1925), Mohandas Ghandi (1930), Dwight Eisenhower (1940), Martin Luther King Jr. (1963), The Computer (a machine - 1982), Mark Zuckerberg (2010) and many others.
But one name between all on this list attracts huge attention. It's the name of ADOLF HITLER, who was given this title in 1938.
Just to remind us, the title was given to the man who was directly responsible for the death of 6 million Jews and 50 million others during the World War II, which he started it.
Irony knows no limits ..
