Female genital Circumcision PICTURES

(FGC), also known as female genital mutilation (FGM) or female circumcision, refers to "all procedures involving partial or total removal of the external female genitalia or other injury to the female genital organs whether for cultural,realious or other non-therapeutic reasons." Female Genital Circumcision is practiced throughout the world, but the practice is concentrated more heavily in Africa, Indonesia, and the Middle East.

I can not believe what a horrible thing could be done to a woman. I hardly understand the circumcision on men, but on women is outrageous. I once saw a movie, Nip/Tuck, and in one episode a patient asked for a procedure on her vagina, cause in her country, when you are born as a woman you will have your clitoris cut. The reason?? Because they have no right to feel pleasure, just men are allowed to have it.

Nokia vs Apple: The Morph vs. iPhone

Nokia is the world's largest mobile phone maker and with more than one billion handsets shipped is by extension the world's largest computing platform.

Every day Nokia sources 329 million parts and builds a million phones in 100 plus handset models and distributes these phones in 70 different languages to 150 countries. Earlier this week the firm unveiled Morph, a concept phone that revealed the company's long-term ambitions; a mixture of high technology and services.

Flexible & Changing Design
Nanotechnology enables materials and components that are flexible, stretchable, transparent and remarkably strong. A folded design would fit easily in a pocket and could lend itself ergonomically to being used as a traditional handset.

Self-Cleaning
Nanostructured surfaces, such as “Nanoflowers” naturally repel water, dirt, and even fingerprints utilizing effects also seen in natural systems.

Advanced Power Sources
Nanotechnology holds out the possibility that the surface of a device will become a natural source of energy via a covering of “Nanograss”.

Sensing The Environment
Nanosensors would empower users to examine the environment around them in completely new ways, from analyzing air pollution, to gaining insight into bio-chemical traces and processes.

"That's my personal life," she said. "It has nothing to do with my mayor's position."
