We spent a lot of time and money in planning a holiday. Sometimes, we face few problems despite of planning. We forget to pack few pairs of clothes, forget to check the arrangements beforehand and many more. Due to lack of planning and pre-preparation, we make more mistakes in making the trip memorable. It is better to plan the vaccination before three months.

Iraqi Troops Face Rise in Prescription Drug Abuse
The Iraqi troops are now facing the new problem of prescription drug abuse. The present position in Iraq is still worse; and even with the assistance of US army they still sees the position uncontrolled.
They mostly use these to control their fear, stress and tension during duty hours. They find the pills very helpful in their duty and find it hard to sign in without their pill popped.
As we know these people are not allowed to use alcohol or drugs during their duty hours and they will be fired if they were found abused. They find prescription drugs very good alternative for these. These abused prescription drugs mostly involve tranquilizers, painkillers and other drugs, according to the doctors and other health specialists.
The most common drug abused here seems to be the Artane which is used to treat Parkinson’s disease. This drug gives euphoric effects when used in high doses.

Buying a Home in 2009: Good or Bad?
People are in a big dilemma to choose between buying a home or not.
This has started with the recession that broke out, and washed away all the soaring real estate prices. Now whatever prices existing out there in the industry are tempting people to become home owners.
At the same time they have these problems like job security, consumer confidence, plummeting businesses, and many more factors which are threatening from getting into buying a home.
Prices in 20 major cities of US were estimated to have fallen by around 18 percent. What this means is that you can buy a home in these cities to a price which you could have bought in the year 2004. The prices are tempting people towards buying a house.
At the same time there are some analysts who say that prices might still fall to lower number than what it is now. And this means you are draining away your money, into something which is not worth it.
This is a big confusion out here. If any body can help please let me know.

OLPC: Reducing Size by Half
It is not a tech company or an auto company to have struggled the economy crisis. It was meant to serve a big purpose. An extremely bigger task, as big as building a Pyramid again. But it could not resist the recession taking over it.
The One Laptop Per Child project has announced that it is going to reduce its size by half if the present size.
“It pains me to post this”, their blog says, “we have striven to avoid this over the past few months, but it is unavoidable”.
The situation is similar with many of the charity projects out there. They find it hard to look out for sponsors or donors to help them achieve their targets.
Their targets may look reasonable before the crisis started. These targets were created for those times. But for now, the situation has changed. All those targets seem to be impractical and unachievable.

Beautiful Roses: Let Them Welcome Your Guests
If you have some empty place around your house (around your compound only; nor neighbor’s) and you want to make good use of it, just plan fro some good Home Garden.
Home garden is not just for people with a big lawn in front of their house. If you have space around your house, and a heart kind enough to help existence of plants in this polluted world, then you are eligible enough to be a plant owner.
Since you can’t grow an Apple Orchard within the little place you have, plan for something small but pleasant.
I recommend growing Rose plants; because they grow well even in difficult conditions and blossom almost incessantly from frost to summer. You will have hardly any mess with the plant and what is great is that Rose flowers are most good-looking, pleasant-smelling flora from the entire flower kingdom.
You can have two rose plants on the two sides of your doors (only if the location can provide sufficient air and sunlight), welcoming your guests with their gentle smile.

How Does Information Explosion Impact Us?
We have excess information, these days, available through many resources. As we are in information age, excess of information is always helpful for us to standout in the present day competition.
But we are hearing a lot about Information Explosion these days. If excess of information is so helpful and so useful why use the word Explosion? It shows that there is a negative impact of so much availability of information. And as the people of Information age it is our responsibility to know it.
Excess of information has pushed the evolution of another virtual world called the Electronic World. There are many people in the world who use their physical world just to carry out some routine jobs like eating, sleeping, etc.
There is no regulation of excess of information been produced everyday. If people are not confident of the information source, it is never used. But still adds up to the quantity of the information. It is like dumping your litter in your own house everyday.
