La OMS es optimista con la situación del ébola en Nigeria
http://sociedad.elpais.com/sociedad/2014/08/19/actualidad/1408438908_350917.html
El número de casos de ébola en Nigeria es el único que se mantiene estable en los distintos recuentos de la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS): son 12 confirmados desde la llegada de la enfermedad a Lagos el 20 de julio (hay otros tres sospechosos), y todos ellos contactos directos del liberiano-estadounidense que llevó al virus al país, y que falleció cinco días después. El tiempo transcurrido sin que se hayan confirmado nuevos casos excede ya los 21 días del periodo máximo de incubación del virus, y eso permite, por primera vez, una interpretación optimista. En total, los casos siguen aumentando: en total, la OMS ha registrado hasta el 16 de agosto 2.237 sospechosos de ébola, de los que han fallecido 1.229.

This is something very interesting, for new generation especially in Asia area, following Western schools
Kyrgyzstan's 'Sex School' Breaks Through Taboos
It starts out like any gymnastics class: A teacher guides a roomful of women through stretching and breathing exercises. The yoga, ballet and tai chi moves train pelvic muscles, the stomach and legs. You only realize you are in a "sex class" when the egg-shaped stones appear. They are used for vaginal weightlifting, a Chinese technique for strengthening muscles and increasing sensitivity in the genital area. The goal is something rarely discussed in Kyrgyzstan: better sex.

Struggling With Sanctions, Russia Faces Oil Price Crash
Oil prize crash in Russia
The price of Urals crude oil, Russia's key export and the lynchpin of its government finances, fell below $100 this week for the first time in more than a year, after plummeting $15 in under a month.
Russia relies on hydrocarbon exports for 50 percent of its budget. Already squeezed by Western sanctions over Ukraine and balanced on the edge of recession, a sudden collapse in oil revenue looks like bad news for the economy.

Obama tropieza de nuevo con la raza
Obama and Missouri
Cuando Barack Obama ganó las elecciones presidenciales de 2008, el columnista Thomas Friedman proclamó en un artículo que finalmente la guerra civil americana había terminado. Casi 150 años después de la derrota del Sur esclavista ante la Unión liderada por Abraham Lincoln, un hombre de origen africano llegaba a la Casa Blanca. Obama, hijo de un negro de Kenia y una blanca de Kansas, triunfó presentándose como el candidato posracial, el que debía cerrar heridas profundas. Si un afroamericano era presidente, todo parecía posible.
