Hepatitis B virus infects the liver, and causes an inflammation called hepatitis. It is a DNA virus and one of many unrelated viruses that cause viral hepatitis. The disease was originally known as “serum hepatitis” and has caused epidemics in parts of Asia and Africa. Hepatitis B is endemic in China and various other parts of Asia. The proportion of the world’s population currently infected with the virus is estimated at 3 to 6%, but up to a third has been exposed. Symptoms of the acute illness caused by the virus include liver inflammation, vomiting, jaundice, and rarely, death. Chronic hepatitis B may eventually cause liver cirrhosis and liver cancer, a fatal disease with very poor response to current chemotherapy. The infection is preventable by vaccination.
With a disease like this that actually infects over 10 times the amount of people that HIV/Aids does, and is 100 times more infectious you’d think we’d all know more about it?! http://www.aminumber12.org is the new website launched this year to help promote the campaigns of World Hepatitis Day that is helping to promote awareness for this disease. If you sign up at the website you get information about supporting the campaign and information to assess if you are at risk. The message “Am I number 12?” hits home, especially when you realize that one in twelve people have the disease; and most of them don’t know.

In the next few months, we will be moving to San Francisco. We decided to move to the because of my work. In regards with this, we are slowly packing our stuff to have them transported to San Francisco. We are also looking for a car shipping company to do auto transport for us. I’m not really sure on what’s the best company that offers these kind of services so I asked my friend Sawyer who has moved from Japan to US a couple of years ago. He told me that there is this company National Car Shipping which did the job for them. According to him, he was pleased with their service and that he strongly recommends them. They are an international car shipping company which provides the said service. According to them, they were even assured that the car would be transported safely and that it’ll be delivered in perfect condition. Perhaps, I’ll have to check out their site and ask them for their rates.

By next month, we’ll be visiting San Francisco again. I’ve been there twice since my cousin lives over the area. It’s really a wondrous place to visit. San Francisco is a vibrant city which boasts its natural beauty which is well loved and appreciated by most of its tourist. The first time we visited San Francisco, we were toured over the area and we’ve heard a lot of colorful stories. I really loved the view over the Golden Gate bridge which I only mostly see on movies and television. We also enjoyed a cable car ride and we visited the Fisherman’s wharf and Pier 39 where you can shop and dine for with its delights. This time we’re getting back to San Francisco and we’re all really excited. We are checking out some hotels in San Francisco which can accommodate out 2 week stay. We’re actually looking for some cheap hotels in San Francisco since we’re quite on a tight budget. Good thing is that we found this site Sanfranciscohotels.com which offers a lot of great deals on San Francisco hotels.

Technology has greatly improved a lot of things over the recent years especially with the presence of the world wide web. Even when it comes to buying flowers! Buying flowers can now be done just by a single click of a mouse. You pay using credit card, paypal, etc. then you have them delivered whatever location you may want. Flower delivery belongs to one of the major services they offer especially when it comes to flowers. A flower shop without a delivery service is almost useless. Before, I buy flowers on a local area and can only have them delivered on the same location. There’s a limit when we talk about the distance the flowers are being delivered but nowadays, you can buy flowers and have them delivered anywhere in the world. A site which I’ve tried a few times is E-florist-inc.com. If you check out their site, you’ll see that they don’t only offer a great delivery service but they also have flowers which are beautifully designed at prices you can really afford. How’s that for valentines or a birthday present?! Flowers delivered from across the world? Wouldn’t that be sweet?! You’ll definitely be able to show your affection and love by doing such act.

Nowadays, there are many online sites to learn English. This includes study with plenty of hours in order to improve your skills in listening, writing, speaking and reading. For me, it is very important to learn English because it is used worldwide. English is usually used by businesses when they communicate with other companies. Learning English is not that easy based on my experienced. Because it takes time for us to be able to understand English languages better and it also takes time to be fluent when speaking in English. As a Call Agent, I can say that I was able to improve my skills in writing reading, listening and speaking in a short period because our customers usually spoke English language. So for those parents who want their children to be fluent in speaking English (if English language is not your native tongue), try to talk to them in English language while they’re still young. Letting them watch English cartoon movies is a big help if want them to learn English quickly. In addition, always remember the saying: “Practice makes perfect.”
