DANISH MILITARY ISSUING SINGING PILLOWS TO TROOPS.

Denmark's military is currently involved in conflicts in Kosovo, Iraq and other hot spots. Naturally, in all these tense areas, troops have trouble sleeping with all the chaos that accompanies war going on just outside their barracks. Thus, the Danish Defense Academy has developed an experimental "singing pillow" to help lull the troops to sleep. The pillow has been dubbed Musicure.

The Singing Pillow Or "Musicure"

What Musicure does is chirp like a bird. It is soft and white with built-in speakers that also release acoustic instruments like cellos along with the chirping birds.

10 pillows are in use in Kosovo. One soldier commented that the problem with the pillow was he "fell asleep too quickly."

If the experiment works, as it looks likely to be the case, then all troops will eventually begin using Music Therapy to rid them of war related stress.

See link below by Garentina Kraja on the sleeping pillow.

ITALIAN MAFIA REVENUES FOR 2004: A WHOPPING +$43 BILLION.

The Calabria-based Italian Mafia has racked up huge profits in 2004 as reported by the Italian research institute Eurispes(in Italian).

Calabria Region Of Italy.

Drugs were the most profitable area bringing in $27 billion, followed by money skimmed from public contracts and general business corruption and extortion.

Next comes the old main stays of prostitution and arms trafficking.

It's now feared that the Calabria mafia, also known as 'Ndrangheta, may overtake the well established and world reknowned Sicilian mafia in both power and murderous activities.
