► SCIENCE DAILY March 20, 2013 : Family Dinners Nourish Good Mental Health in Adolescents — Regular family suppers contribute to good mental health in adolescents, according to a study co-authored by McGill professor Frank Elgar, Institute for Health and Social Policy. Family meal times are a measurable signature of social exchanges in the home that benefit adolescents' well-being -- regardless of whether or not they feel they can easily talk to their parents.

This research is successful, as I get to the real truth. When we (sisters, brothers and I) were in the same family, the family dinner was an event for each of us discussed our experience on that day.

And I was most amazed at my dad when he was sharing stories and discussing politics, while my mother discussed the health issues. My brother talked about finance and economics, my youngest brother to question issues of culture and work ethic, while me and my other sister discussing our respective faces. Our problem at the time was, "Why our faces are very similar?" Most people thought we were twins. We got annoyed if they thought we were twins. To show our disapproval, we were often involved in the argument for no reason.

When my mom was talking to my father and my sister talked to my sister, me and "my twin" would end all discussions with a single action. : She or I was going to leave the dinner table each night and headed to bed each with a feeling upset or crying.

Up at the front door of our each room, we each still another stuck our tongues out at us, respectively. To her its means, "You!" To me it means, "You!" In each of us that means, "Me!"

Ehehehe, sweet memories in childhood. 

Now each of us had left the family home and looking for each other's lives. Finally the time has led us to make much difference.

"My twin sister" has been married to a pediatrician and they have a beautiful daughter, while I am not married and have a gorgeous baby boy, as handsome as my partner.  Ahem. Ahem. (Dahling, do you think you are handsome, hm?)

Ehehhee it does not matter whether he is handsome or not, or he looks handsome because I feel he is handsome, but the family dinner --- that has been my habit since childhood --- will be accustomed too in the life of my family now.

Giacomo explained the theory of war's rationalism, the motives that led to war. First, the problem of indivisibility such as border issues, etc.. The second is due to asymmetric information delivery. It can occur in one direction through the control of dissemination of information (radio, TV) and propaganda. An example is like in Rwanda. The latter is the capacity to perform the tasks in a credible manner, as happened in Venezuela.

The motive of war is simply politics. Annexation, unclear borders, the struggle for natural resources are just politicized and twisted theme. For the benefit of whom? Who else if not for politicians?

War is a political tool, not the economy, not the sociocultural. And the nature of war is reciprocal. If only one party attacked, then it can be considered as aggression. If the party attacked doesn't attack back, then it can not be called a war.

War and peace is a principle which is very much different. The war caused clashes between the two interests, or more on the basis of threats to the values ​​of integrity, self-esteem, or the collapse of a nation or ideology.  The complexity that can not be terminated  will usually lead to war. Meanwhile,   peace is a situation when there is a balance between two or more interests and to minimize the impact which will occur.

Sometimes, war must be taken to a peace,  as a very high price; and the war could not be avoided because of the laws of equilibrium in this world should be run as a law of nature.

Indeed, war is very alarming, both on the part of the attacker and the attacked. The thing to be observed is  why wars happen?

For example, why did America invade Iraq - Afghanistan - Libya? Why did Israel attack Paletina-Egypt-Lebanon? One group attacked the WTC-Bali-London-Spain, the Crusades, the Colonial War, the North-South war in the U.S., and others.

Different perceptions, interests, and ideology which can not be settled amicably, making war predicted will be able to stop the differences which
estimated to have the potential to cause more damage than the decision for war.  And It is very difficult to tell all the hysical wars are unholy.  Maybe for George Bush, the war (physical) against terrorists is a holy war. Similarly, like Israel against the Palestinian people also regard it as a holy war.

For Muslims, perhaps to know the holy war or not, of course have to look back at what Allah stated in the Qur'an and examined the journey of Prophet Muhammad. Then there are all the answers and by asking for God's guidance in order to understand the contents of Quran correctly while continues to be positive, then the truth of the Quran will be proven.

But for "The Windmills ofYour Mind" in North Korea , mmm .... sorry, I'm dying for a pee. It seems, too, my baby pees, too. Haiya ....

If Bo dies, will he be buried as a tribute to the human? If yes, I would sit and cry alone here. Why? Do not ask me anything. Ah, no. That's all right. I'm fine. I just wonder, "Why do people take the degree of "a man who failed" is lower than the presence of a dog?"

► Students would do well to learn cursive, advocate says ||   SCIENCE DAILY July 26, 2012 : Eye-Writing Technology: Writing in Cursive With Your Eyes Only  — A new technology described in the paper published online on July 26 in Current Biology, a Cell Press publication, might allow people who have almost completely lost the ability to move their arms or legs to communicate freely, by using their eyes to write in cursive. The eye-writing technology tricks the neuromuscular machinery into doing something that is usually impossible: to voluntarily produce smooth eye movements in arbitrary directions.
