Sadly not available in the Dominican Republic even with the updated data from the private and social costs associated with these tragedies, much less the value of the loss in productive power. We reiterate that the lack of qualitative information useful and accessible impossible today, assessment and analysis of costs for making good decisions. Although the economic costs of each country are different, our starting point the fact of what our income level. If we rely on data from the World Health Organization and the World Bank, Dominican Republic with a gross domestic product this year from U.S. $ 85.500 million, taking us as middle income, the annual cost of road trauma amount around RD $ 46.500 million. How reliable could be this value? It’s something we have to work in concert with multilateral agencies and the Secretary General Iberoamericana. Being extremely conservative, an estimate that is what I would do. Although each country has its particular situation, as mentioned above.
However, it gives us an idea of how important it is to pay attention to the problem. Safety audits implemented on roads at different stages of design, construction and even after it became widespread, would be a tool for significant resource savings to the state. Suggest the application of such audits in the streets, avenues and highways in the identification of critical points, it would be interesting, to their proper corrections. Verify enormous advantages of preventing road accidents that would result in tangible savings in a short time. Chile has entered into this process recently.

This would have to start with the rigorous granting the issuance of license and vehicle registration certificate, as the first government initiative to establish sincere at the time of the Data Centre demanding regional security organizations. Accordingly, the government must create the governing body of their security policies in this area. It is one last question, How much resource you can count the Dominican Government with the adoption of new public policies on road safety for the restructuring of public investment, savings product of road violence prevention? The answer must be sought. Dominican, with studies in Electromechanical Engineering, Energy and Security.

Yoga can have many meanings and is associated with several Indian religions such as Hinduism and Buddhism, but here we are only going to discuss the yoga postures as a form of exercise.
As a system of healing, yoga has been around for over 5,000 years. Its practice combines breathing exercises, postures and meditation. Those that practice yoga believe that it can calm the nerves and achieve balance in the body, mind and spirit. A session of yoga can last between 60 and 90 minutes, and it has been shown to lower blood pressure, minimize stress, and improve many body functions such as coordination, flexibility, concentration, sleep and even one’s digestion.
Because yoga combines physical exercise with breathing exercises and meditation, it is an ideal form of exercise for people with certain physical ailments like heart disease, high blood pressure, asthma and back pain or other back problems.
