<p>I was not at all surprised to read today that people eating dark chocolate regularly, have lower body mass index. The funny bit was that fact was being shown as the reason for having the lower body mass index. This is wrong.</p>
<p>IMHO, skinny people eat dark chocolate because they don&#8217;t want the extra calories not the other way round <img src='http://www.nickvassilev.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  People who eat dark chocolate are not guaranteed they will become skinny  .</p>

<p>As a Nikon fan it is an understatement to say that I quite like the new Nikon D800 DSLR camera. 36 Megapixels! Wow! This little beauty goes shooting straight to medium format cameras. Can&#8217;t wait to lay my hands on one of these guys.</p>
<p>This is the promotional movie Nikon has shot the premiere of the DSLR. One little detail &#8211; the entire movie was shot using only the new D800. :^)</p>

<p>Can I recommend you a really good cosmetics product? Actually I could recommend a whole website for your pure enjoyment &#8211; try <a title="Rose Oil Cometics by Thracian" href="http://www.thracian.co.uk">Thracian</a>. All products have been manufactured by a leading Bulgarian rose oil distillery. They are already very popular around the world with their fine quality and excellent recession prices.</p>
<p>Did you know that to produce 1 kg of pure rose oil, the distillery needs 5 tonnes of Rosa Damascena, the famous Bulgarian queen of roses? And by the way, the technical term for rose oil is Rose Otto.</p>
<p>Be safe!</p>
<p>Rispek!</p>
