Regularly, it was about sex, physical appearance and also fatality. additionally, these words are to prevent an individual from getting offended

Senior citizens who consume a high dietary intake of carotenoids, nutrients found in coloured fruits and vegetables such as carrots, peppers, mangoes and kiwi fruit, are able to walk 'longer and stronger' than those with a low dietary intake, suggest the results of a new study published by the Journal of Nutrition, Health and Ageing.

Researchers at Johns Hopkins Medical Centre used blood tests to measure levels of carotenoids in 687 older adults aged sixty-five and over and subsequently assessed the results against the physical walking performance of the trial participants.

Results showed that a higher dietary intake of fruits and vegetables, as indicated by a higher blood carotenoid level, was associated with a significant protective effect against physical degeneration over the course of three years, as measured by a strong or weak walking performance.

The latest findings are the second such study to examine the connection between these dietary factors and sustainable physical performance in aging. Previous research, also carried out by Johns Hopkins and forming part of the larger Women's Health and Aging Study, revealed that "low serum carotenoid levels, an indicator of low intake of fruits and vegetables, are independent predictors of the progression towards severe walking disability among older women living in the community." 

Prior to both studies, the link between a low carotenoid intake and poor muscle strength had been established, as had a more general correlation between fruit and vegetable consumption and functional disability in senior citizens. 

Researchers in the current study felt that their results may be particularly important given that such mobility assessments can be accurate predictors of future disability and even mortality, and that the findings could help senior citizens in maintaining independence and quality of life with aging.

Lead author Dr Alipanah and colleagues suggested a number of explanations for the findings, including that the antioxidant properties of the nutrients could protect against the progression of aging and may help to dampen down a type of inflammation unique to muscle weakness and physical decline. The research team also suggested that physical degeneration may on occasion simply be related to under nutrition and that an increased intake of fruits and vegetables could be indicative of consuming enough calories to lend to a strong physical walking performance.

According to the US Department of Agriculture, the highest levels of carotenoids are found in collards, sweet corn, tomatoes, watermelon, pink grapefruit, pumpkin, butternut squash and carrots. Guidelines recommend an intake of around 6mg each day, or equivalent to eating three portions of carotenoid rich foods.

* Senior citizen = old people

* Longer and stronger = healthier or in a good health

JACK THE RIPPER ! !

He is the most notorious ‘murderer’ of all time… J.T.R 

"Jack the Ripper is the best-known name given to an unidentified serial killer who was active in the largely impoverished areas in and around the Whitechapel district of London in 1888. The name originated in a letter, written by someone claiming to be the murderer that was disseminated in the media. The letter is widely believed to have been a hoax, and may have been written by a journalist in a deliberate attempt to heighten interest in the story. Other nicknames used for the killer at the time were "The Whitechapel Murderer" and "Leather Apron". Attacks ascribed to the Ripper typically involved female prostitutes from the slums whose throats were cut prior to abdominal mutilations. The removal of internal organs from at least three of the victims led to proposals that their killer possessed anatomical or surgical knowledge.

–source from wiki-

         

Based on my point of view (and the investigation that has been made :P)  I think the most probable suspect to be Jack the Ripper is……?

Dr Thomas Neil Cream !!

Premise 1

The execution appears to come from a doctor (The Modus operand)

Argument

The killings seem to be from someone who is specialized in anatomy      

Sub Argument

Incisions made towards victims are clear-cut and neat which might give the clue that the murderer is a well experienced person.     

Premise 2

     Dr Thomas Neil Cream is expert in abortions

Argument

     He is obsessed towards female genitals as it is associated mostly with his job

Sub Argument

     Jack The Ripper assassination methods somehow resembles Dr Thomas Neil Cream area of expertise, which is the removal of female genitals, thus it shows that he is the most probable suspect to be Jack The Ripper

Premise 3

He confessed that he is Jack the Ripper when he is almost died

Argument

Ordinary human being would only tell the truth when approaching death

Sub Argument

Without sense of hesitation, he confess that he is Jack the Ripper because he discern that he is going to ‘kick the bucket’ very soon and he will not get any punishment for his inhumanity conduct

..My impression regarding on the articles..

: thinking Folly by Eckhart Tolle

From this article, it is clearly shown that the author want to convey that thinking is not required in an individual’s life as it will only cause misery. However, I opposed his view as I think that thinking is very important in one’s life. In addition, thinking is essential in order to make up decision whether it is right or wrong. Based on the author view, he also stated that thinking will cause disease. This is absolutely intolerable. In one’s life, thinking process is needed for an individual to continue living as it is part of their life. Islam also encourages the followers to think in order to make sure that they are not being too far apart from conviction and belief. Therefore, this article is nonsense as it only discuss on the drawback of thinking process although it is necessary to think and it brings a lot of benefits to an individual particularly. 

: The Degree of Happiness by Bertrand Russell 

Based on this article, the author claims that there is level of happiness in one’s life. Additionally, he argues scientist is happier and contented than the farmer. Nevertheless, based on my personal view, individual level of happiness differs from one another. This is because they might have different sight and indulgent of the happiness itself. For instance, if the scientist have done outstanding job by their research, then they will be pleased as they have contribute to the people. Thus the author said that this group of people are happier than the farmer. However, the farmer also attains happiness using their own way. Even simple things can make they feel contented because that is their own approach of flaunting happiness. Therefore, happiness is abstract because ones happiness is altered from others based on their technique in conveying contentment.

: The Jews and Their Deceits by Adolf Hitler

The excerpt from the article The Jews and their Deceits are absolutely adequate as it portrays the vindictiveness of the Jews towards the Nazi. I agree with the author as I think that the Jews should be abolished from this world as they are shrewd and totally untrustworthy. The Jews should be diminished from the world as they force the Nazi to live in a desolation situation. Plus, Jews also have shown vindictiveness that has been executed in order to achieve their goals. Besides, The Jews carries out various methods in order to take reward from the Nazi drudgery just for their own importance. This shows the evil side of the Jews as they are only manipulating others and take advantage of the misery of others. They are pretentious and can be considered as “poker face” particularly when it deals with their feelings. 

: Man and Women Merely Players by Robert Greene

This article is coinciding since being naïve and descent at all times leads to nowhere land and will contributes in nothing but failure. Personally, I do agree with the author as man and women are the players in theatrical life. Besides, this particular article also emphasize on the individuals approach in order to expand their status in a society and to achieve power in the authority. In addition, not everyone obtain similar vision of life and their intention might differ. These days, it is not relevant to completely trust someone as they might possibly harm other individuals in the future with their appealing action. Furthermore, they are more harmful to individuals since they secretly draft all the plans to topple you down secretly. These kinds of people are hiding their agenda and we might not even know that they are one of the enemy. It is clearly stated that man and woman pretend and have the intention to be dominant in society which makes them the real ‘players’.

Plan 9 From Outer Space – How Bad Could It Be?

Posted on 14 April 2011 by Kolbe Swanson

Plan 9 is a blatantly bad film, but is it really the worst film of all time? I’ve seen plenty of other flawed films, such as: Manos: The Hands of Fate, Teenagers From Outer Space, and The Robot vs. The Aztec Mummy. Plan 9 might not actually be the worst film ever made, but of the appallingly cut-rate films I have seen, Plan 9 is probably the most fun; its shoddiness is consistent and ridiculous enough to keep one laughing from beginning to end.

my review on the movie 'PLAN 9 FROM THE OUTER SPACE"

At the outset, I have similar view with the writer; Kolbe Swanson based on his statement in the movie reviews. This movie is not the worst movie ever made as it makes the viewers enjoy most of their time watching this particular movie. Even though this movie doesn’t provide an excellent storyline, however this is unacceptable to be very judgmental on the Edwood Jr work. There is no “bad movies” in this world. Things that hold opposing views from the others are the plot which makes it very astonishing messed up. However, this movie can be considered acceptable as it still have the influence to pull the laughter among the viewers.

 

SuPeRsTiTiOnS!!

IF A MAIDEN SINGS WHILE COOKING, SHE WILL BE DESTINED TO MARRY AN OLD MAN

Left brain

This superstition is ridiculous because there is no guarantee if a maiden sings while cooking, subsequently she will marry an old man as everything depends on fate.

This superstition is absolutely absurd because the maiden will only bother other people by her singing and it can create obnoxious circumstance.

This superstition is irrational because this belief is against the norms of life whereby people destiny cannot be measured by this kind of supernatural belief.

Right brain

This supernatural belief can be accepted as it helps to restraint the maiden not to sing in the kitchen in order to maintain the fine image of a fair maiden.

This superstition is applicable because when a fair maiden sings in the kitchen, she will automatically lost her concentration towards cooking and perhaps the outcome will turn out to be outrageous.

This superstition is accepted because it the maiden herself won’t disturb other people by her singing as it will brings many unenthusiastic outcome.

LADIES CANNOT CHANGE PLACES DURING MEALS OR SHE WOULD REMARRY MANY TIMES IN HER LIFE

Left brain

This supernatural belief is absolutely unaccepted because there is no connection between changing position during feast and she will remarry many times.

This supernatural is ridiculous as it is against the norms of life whereby people destiny cannot be measured by changing the place during meal time.

This supernatural belief cannot be accepted as it is normal to change place during meal time as the maiden might have difficulties and that lead her to alter the place.

Right brain

This superstition is accepted because it helps to make the maiden more discipline by forbidding them to move around when having their meals..

This supernatural belief is conventional because it teaches the maiden to look out of their image as a fair maiden as people will always observe their manners..

This superstition is accepted because it will prevent the maiden from choking when they are changing places during meal..
