The End of the Malaria Wars

A team of researchers have found probably the cure for the deadliest disease on the planet: Malaria. The study that occupies the portrait of the Nature magazine, was made by the GlaxoSmithKline laboratories in Madrid. They discovered a way to stop the parasite in the Malaria, Plasmodium falciparum, from acting and killing the blood cells we have in our bodies. They also have seen a way to make the red blood cells to act and stop the parasite from penetrating them.

With this we can stop the deadliest disease on Earth from killing a children in Africa every thirty seconds. The Malaria originates from a infected mosquito in the tropical rainforest's that needs blood to reproduce. The mosquito bites on a human, and as it sucks blood the malaria enters to the body. This disease caused by the insignificantly small mosquito makes more than a million people die each year. With this new discovery, the world could be saved from a fatal disease.

The 40th anniversary of Walt Disney World

In a little bit more than a year, the Walt Disney Company, one of the most famous film companies in film history will celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Walt Disney World Resort. The world's largest theme park was opened on October 1rst, 1971. This theme park, was created by the Walt Disney Company whom also created Disneyland in Anaheim, California. The founder of the theme parks, the films and Mickey Mouse as many of you might know, was Walt Disney.

Walt Disney is probably on of the most famous filmmakers in film history. Walt won 26 Academy Awards out of 59 nominations, more than any other filmmaker or actor. He created along with his brother Roy O. Disney the Walt Disney Company, the world's largest entertainment and media conglomerate in the world. Walt Disney, after creating Disneyland, wanted to create a second park to supplement the first. He discovered that only 2% of the visitors in Disneyland came east of the Mississippi River, and knew that 75% of the population in the US lived in the East at the time. So, after searching for a long time, he bought a large piece of land in Lake Buena Vista, Florida. Sadly, Walt died in 1966, 4 years before the park opened. His brother died 3 months after Walt Disney World opened.

The Walt Disney World Resort currently has 4 theme parks: Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Disney Hollywood Studios and the Animal Kingdom.

Stories of the World Cups

In the past, their have been 18 World Cups, the worlds most seen and famous sport tournament in history. The 19th World Cup will be held in South Africa, and it's first game will start on June 11th, 2010 in the Soccer City Stadium,Johannesburg, South Africa. The Colombian magazine Semana, released a guide and history to the past world cups. These are the best and worst Wor;d Cups according to the magazine:

1. The best World Cup ever: Mexico 1970. In this World Cup, Brasil won the championship to Italy 4-1 in what is regarded as the best soccer team that ever existed: Pele,Gerson,Tostao,Jairzinho and Rivelinho. Edson Arantes DoNacimento (Pele) was crowned as the best player of all-time and still conserves this title. Many goals were scoared.

2. The worst World Cup ever: Korea-Japan 2002. Brasil won this title against Germany 2-0 in a very insipid game. Here, many coaches showed very little interest in the game and many unfair refferies. France was elliminated without even scoring a goal (beated by Senegal), and the United States won against Portugal staying in Quarter Finals. Even more surprisingly, South Korea got to Semifinals, according to some with help from the refferies. Howcome Senegal after this, didn't even classify to Germany 2006, and both Korea and US were elliminated in the first round? The team that most suffered was Italy, with 5 valid goals not valid by the refferies.

What kind of World Cup will we see in South Africa?
