A day of excursion!
1. Once a year in the institute I work the entire institute having this excursion to go to different places and site seeing then come back to the institute and have dinner! The occasion of this was yesterday. This is being done for people to get to know Swiss culture and heritage and learn about hiking (something that these guys die for!) We saw couple of heritage monuments and old spinning company but two was the highlights of the trip. A place that they used to be brewing beer and damp-train (I call it CHU CHU train.) The CHU CHU train was amazing because we did not just visit it, we were taken to mountain to visit some area with it and it was such memorable experience since you could sit outside and enjoy the Alpine natural sceneries!
Something interesting about spinning company was the fact that even Swiss people were into slavery! They used to bring in blind and deaf people to move the wheels when they did not have power of water to rotate the wheel!

2. Today in Zurich, I saw many young boys and girls with smile are distributing apple among people!
When I ask what the occasion is? I was told: in a few day people are voting for European union and new countries that are joint. In any case, I enjoyed the way they are persuading people to go to ballet boxes.

I may post some of the pictures soon.

3. Two public advertisements for all to have a healthier life:

3.1. A link for our concerned Women!

3.2. Human spine loses its water content inside intervertebrae disk (Hamon disk keh ma migim) due to regular pressure received during a working day. The rate of fluid loss is approximately 10-20%. Fluid loss during daily loading is regained during overnight rest, and it has been postulated that this diurnal fluid exchange is critical for disk nutrition!
So, sleep well at night if you wish to have pain free spine!:-)
