Italian raccomendations

No idea where to go on the holidays? I've selected three interesting Italian destinations that I can recommend you. 
  1. Taormina: a small village on the east coast of Sicily. It's one of the most beautiful places on the island. From the city situated on the hill, you can admire the breath-taking view of the seascape. You can even notice the Etna volcano. Taormina is located close to Catania and Syracuse, where you can go sightseeing. And if you are, by any chance, The Godfather's fan, you can visit the nearby city of Savoca where all the scenes 'from Corleone' were shot. 

  1. Verona: the city of Romeo and Juliet. It's a small, but very charming city. If you've ever seen Letters to Juliet, you know that so called Casa di Giulietta still exists and attracts crowds of tourists from all over the world. Every girl wants to stand on the famous balcony and take a commemorative picture. But Verona is not only the location of Shakespeare's story. In the middle of the city, you can find an ancient colosseum: The Arena of Verona, that till today holds concerts and operas. 


  2. Cinque Terre: it's a fragment of the Ligurian coast, that includes five villages:   Monterosso, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola and Riomaggiore. It's a gorgeous destination. You can get there with ferry or by train. In 1997, it has been registered on the UNESCO World Heritage list.

How did fitness tracker help resolve murder investigation?

Lately, I came across an article about how fitness tracker helped resolving the murder investigation. Out of curiosity, I’ve decided to read it cause it appeared to be quite unusual. So, not to prolong: thing was happening in California. 67-years old woman was found in her house with wounds around her head and neck. Last person who saw her that day was her father, 80-years old Anthony Aiello. While asked about their meeting, he testified that they ate together and that they parted on good terms. Little did he know, that   his daughter wore a fitness tracker on her wrist. Smartwatches like this can show us how many steps we make during the day, what’s our daily calories intake and among many others: they can measure our heartbeat. So, as you may have already guessed: the police with a help of the tracker could easily estimate the time of the death…and surprise, surprise: It happened to be exactly while she was supposed to be having a meal with her father. This time technology has ...

Must read

Hi, guys! How's life? What have you been up to? If you by any chance found out how to be a productive person, please make sure to let me know, cause I'm still having difficulties with adopting to the fact that the academic year has officially begun. I, personally, have spent most of my summer reading crime stories and I just must admit that there's one, in particular, I enjoyed. Have you ever heard the name A.J. Finn? No? OK, so you have to change it, cause I can assure you, it'd be worth it. The book is called The Woman in the window . Anna Fox, the main protagonist,  is a middle-aged woman, living on her own in the beautiful house in the suburbs. She spends most of her days drinking wine and watching people. Yes, she's literally spying on her neighbours. And there wouldn't be anything interesting about that, were it not for the discovery she's about to make. The key word in describing this book would be: the truth. While reading it, we have the...

Spoons of Victory

Do you remember the  African  Vuvuzelas from the 2010  World  Cup? Well, Russia is no worse than RPA, they also have their special instrument for this occasion. 'Spoons of Victory': their shape resembles the letter 'V' like 'Victory' that they are about to achieve. The instrument was invented by Rustam  Nugmanov  and is supposed to help tapping the rhythm of the songs without causing as much  rumour  as  Vuzuelas . The 'Spoons' are made  entirely out of the wood  and look more  like a kitchen  supplies  than something that  imitates  the sound.  Fans  can  bring them to the match and if they don't own one, it can be purchased at the venue.  Do  you  think  they'll repeat the success of  Vuzuelas ?
