Dark skin...

They are even responsible for drug calculation
In crisis...

SisyphusEach day I spend a little time with my friend Sisyphus in the morning,
He tries his best to give me advice or at least to offer up a warning.
He can tell by the way I work that sometimes I spin my wheels,
Trying hard to get...

Not For NaughtWhat you do here, is your job, life, future and health.
Without each one of these, there will be no wealth.
Apply and learn each day that you live and breathe.

Don’t ever think, what you do, is...
