Pinkeye (a.k.a conjunctivitis) is redness and swelling of the conjunctiva. The mucous membrane lines the eyelid and eye surface. The lining of the eye is usually clear. If irritation or infection occurs, the lining becomes red and swollen. Contagious forms of pink eye are usually linked to bacterial or viral infections. Non-contagious pink eye can occur when eye irritants such as allergens, dust and smoke are in the environment. Coughing and sneezing can spread contagious pink eye by spraying tiny droplets from infected mucus into the air. Shared towels also can be infected, as well as table tops, counter spaces and bathrooms.

Funny BOX video
This video i shared with my students. They had a good laugh and understand why correct pronunciation is a MUST...not just for English..but for all spoken language :-)
Today's BOX English Pronunciation
Pronunciation is definitely the biggest thing that people notice when you are speaking English. Do you think people will notice your poor vocabulary or bad grammar? I believe not. But they will notice if your pronunciation is good or bad. If your pronunciation is poor, they will immediately think that you’re bad in English. Our pronunciation creates the first impression that we make.
