MY VOCAB PRACTICE:

1. Decadent
   You should not judge decadent individuals according to your system of values, but embrace different cultural values.

2. Cadence
   I could never be a good drummer, because my knowledge of music and cadence of notes are really poor.

3. Cascade
   A Philippino co-worker ran a workshop in Leadership for a non-governmental organization, that should transfer those skills to the local community on a cascade effect.

4. Casualty
   Don't be surprised if one day you will read on the first page of all the newspapers a casualty regarding the President of Cambodia.

[majes.tytyty]

Hmmm, what are you planning to do to the President? And why?

Good luck. After "dealing with" him, can you please deal with about 2–3 dozen other leaders of countries around the world?

There's one country near Canada that could use your help. ☺
