Xmas Gift idea : PAINT STOP BOOM writtern by Ana Sarelas

Book Synopsis:
“Heroes versus heroic acts, intentions versus instincts, paintings that stop bombs, a city changing to the tick of the clock that everyone is racing against, and the nature of change.”
Paint Stop Boom revolves around two very different characters.
Anais is an eccentric artist who unwittingly paints pieces that stop bombs. Yet she is unwilling to help stop the attacks in Sydney . She does not want to be a hero.
Michael cannot comprehend how anyone would not believe in saving the world if they could. He has lost his family to a terrorist attack that exploded in the heart of Sydney and steals her paintings to stop the bombs.
Anais wants her life back. All her paintings have been stolen and she is running out of time to submit her entry to the Venice Biennale.
Michael is running out of time. He has stolen all her paintings and he needs more. But the police are after him for theft and Anais is refusing to paint any more.
It is a story of heroes versus anti-heroes, examining the clash between those who care and those who don’t; the difference between those who want to lead their lives as best they can and those who want to save the world.

Jennifer Aniston tops 'Hottest Woman of All Time' list
With a successful TV and movie career, Jennifer Aniston has achieved a lot. But now she has a new trophy to showcase on her mantlepiece: Men's Health voted Jennifer as the Sexiest Woman of All Time, beating out such classic stars as Marilyn Monroe and Raquel Welch. Known for her killer body and stunning looks, it's no wonder men notice her. Jennifer is a health-conscious and down-to-earth beauty that gets her glow from the inside out.
Jennifer gets rave reviews from Men's Health after being revealed as the all-time sexiest woman, Perez Hilton reports. "Funny is sexy, and Jennifer Aniston is funny," the magazine explains, adding: "Throughout her career, Aniston has remained sexy, funny, and unmistakably real." Keeping her feet on the ground and her beauty simple yet stunning, Jennifer keeps her physique toned with running and yoga and by eating a healthy diet. The 42-year-old has shown off her slender body in many cover shoots and ads (including the one for Smart Water where she was completely nude), displaying her natural beauty and flowing locks with confidence and ease.

Two years later, Greece is no closer to a fiscal solution
TWO YEARS AGO, on Dec. 14, 2009, Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou pledged that his debt-ridden country would “address and resolve, once and for all, deep-rooted problems that are holding the nation back.” As if to mark the anniversary, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) brought out a report this week whose main conclusion is that Greece is not only not reforming fast enough but “falling behind across a range of policies.”
Instead of shrinking, the Greek budget deficit is growing. And instead of growing next year, as the IMF once predicted, the Greek economy will contract again. In short, while Europe’s leaders turn their attention to ratification of a long-term plan for fiscal discipline across the 17 nations that use the euro, they still don’t have a solution for the situation that plunged the continent into crisis in the first place — and could yet trigger a meltdown.
Sydney Olympic finishes the year with a friendly win against South Melbourne
The 2011 year could not come to an end in a better way for our historic Club, after winning the Premiership and the Championship in NSW and playing the last game of the year in Melbourne, against South Melbourne FC for the opening of the new Lakeside stadium and winning with a 3-2 score.
In front of over 4,000 spectators Sydney Olympic FC showcased some of the class we have all seen in the Football NSW Premier League and beat South Melbourne that started the game with an early goal from Jason Trifiro just 52’ seconds after the game kicked off that got the home fans excited and hoping for a win.
