Second Largest Diamond in the World Found in South Africa

The second largest diamond in the world has been found in South Africa, weighing 2492 carats (498 g) and valued at over $40 million. The lucky discovery was made by the Canadian mining company Lucara Diamond at a Botswana mine, but what will be done with it has not yet been decided. The largest diamond in history, the 'Cullinan' at 3106 carats, was found in 1905 (also in Africa). It was then divided into several pieces, which adorned the scepter of English King Edward VII and the British Empire's crown.

Nothing Returns to the Office

"Remote work is incompatible with high ambitions and high speed." The British company Nothing has decided to bring all its employees back from remote work – 450 people received an email stating that everyone is switching to a five-day office week. Those who refuse to come to the office were offered to resign and seek opportunities in another field. CEO Carl Pei said in the letter that they have an "adult company," and adults should work in the office. Employees will be given two months for adaptation. They have not yet commented on the decision, but it could be assumed that the employees are simply speechless. After all, many joined Nothing because the company operated only remotely. Remember how during the Covid era everyone said that the world would never return to offices?

The Most Famous Superfood: Avocado

The most famous superfood is the avocado. It is very rich in vitamins and microelements, but it is important to remember that this harmless fruit is high in calories and can hinder weight loss. This fruit should ideally be eaten with various foods, especially tomatoes. With them, the avocado burns empty calories. Powerful antioxidants and carotenoids are found in the green fruit, while beta-carotene is found in the red fruit. Therefore, these two ingredients help in the fight against harmful radicals and are highly effective antioxidants.

Why Love at All?

Why love at all if it will likely hurt in the end? I think you need to accept it as one of the outcomes of your relationship. It will hurt, but not necessarily. The point is not to focus on this question at all – it could drive you crazy. And you could lose all meaning in everything. Missing out on an opportunity like love is very sad due to such prejudices. The point is not to suffer because of what might happen in the future, but to enjoy the here and now. Do not be afraid to love and be loved!

About Male Love and Women's Wishes

When a man spends the night with a woman, it speaks of passion. When he dines with her, it shows his interest. When he is jealous, he shows his seriousness. But male love begins with caring for his woman. How is male love measured? By gifts? By care? By attention? Every woman has her own yardstick. I think when a man loves, he is always on your side in front of the rest of the world, even if you are wrong a thousand times. A man is the one who can piece together even a shattered heart and be proud that he managed to win the love of the one he truly needs. That's a woman's happiness, to be a whimsical woman in the hands of a caring man. Don't lose the woman who continues to love you despite your flaws. Women have only 3 wishes from a man. If you think it’s an apartment, a car, and a fur coat, you are mistaken. It is loyalty, gratitude, and attention.

Do you notice the little things that make our love more important?

For example, when the door is closed so quietly not to wake anyone. Or how they taste the tea before handing over the cup. How they let you eat the cherry from their cocktail. How they leave the last sip of water in the bottle when you're thirsty. How they get up a bit earlier in the morning to prepare breakfast and tiptoe around. How they gently stroke you to help you fall asleep faster. Love is in these tender little things when you pay attention to them.

Forget All Negative Emotions

Emotions can be compared to waves that come and go. Try to imagine an emotion as a wave. And remember, waves come and go. The same happens with emotions: they come and go. It is important to describe and perceive emotions with words. Then we begin to recognize them and understand that we are capable of withstanding them. Over time, they lose their intensity.

Beer Can Be Consumed Without Health Risks: One Glass per Week

Beer can be consumed without harm to health: one glass of 0.3 liters a couple of times a week. This information was shared by doctors. It is better to choose quality beer without sweeteners and preservatives. It should contain nothing but water, hops, and malt. It is also recommended to drink only when in a good mood and in pleasant company. The main problem of weight gain from frequent beer consumption is that people use chips, crackers, nuts, fatty sausages, and other high-calorie foods as snacks. It is best to choose shrimp, crayfish, natural homemade crackers, lean dried or cured meat. And it is best to avoid snacks altogether and enjoy the taste of beer. In the latter case, statistics show that the amount of beverage consumed will be less.
