Humble life of Uriguay’s president “True president of a country”

Humble life of Uraguay’s president is being an issue. He had been famous for the most humble president in the world, so a rich man suggested the president to sell 34 year-old car in price of million dollars. But he rejected that suggestion.

  Though the rich man suggested much more price than his whole fortune (about 300 million dollars), he rejected the rich man’s suggestion. He doesn’t regard money as important thing. He didn't sell the car because his dog really loves the car.

   José Alberto Mujica Cordano, president of Uruguay is raising a dog whose name is ‘Manuela’, and has a soft life in his wife’s house, though that is not rich. He doesn’t need any security guard and bulletproof vehicle, so he drive the 34 year-old car himself. And it looked so peaceful that his was driving to a farm with his wife. A president who lives in his farm, not a palatial residence and donates salary to the poors. I guess Uruguay’s future is bright as well agrarian country from underdeveloped country in South America.
 

 IPYG, we thought we should try harder for world peace after we listened to this news. We hope that we will be remembered as a great youth group that has been acting for world peace.

An impression from “Interstellar”

According to  the ticket computer network of the Korean Film Commission on 18^th, the film drew audiences totaling 210,410 people for one day on 17^th and it is topped the box office. Total attendance at this movie has topped 5million.  It is about a box office hit  `Interstellar’

The director has studied the subjects related to this movie at the university for 4 years. 

He said that he didn’t want to make an immature and groundless movie.  Thus Christopher Nolan worked on this movie.  

To make a higher quality movie, it is based on the theory of  a possibility of time travel through wormhole of internationalphysicist, Kip Torne’s Physical cosmology.

‘The story of `Interstellar’ goes like this.  As the earth became that mencan’t live on, peoplehad to find a new planet to survive.  The main character Cooper went into space,  leaving his beloved family behind, as a last hope of mankind. He ventured his life in another galaxy through wormhole

In the film, fine dust covers whole earth. Only corn farm survived despite fine dust covered on their labored crops.  In fact, not only our country but also other countries struggle with fine dust these days.  Is it only fine dust?
The temperature of the earth is getting higher and the ice on polar regions are melting slowly. The marine life is dying from some unknown cause, abnormalityof climate caused mutation of produce, and some people are suffered from the shortage of water. I thought this kind of story can be happened in the future science fiction film in my childhood

But this came into reality already.  The message of `Interstellar’ is not  just an interesting story.  We should do something for stimulating the global environment. We have to change our mindset and we need to make a habit of thinking about the conservation of nature in daily life.  In addition, we need to teach our children how to love the nature and make them carry out the idea.

It recalls me a commercial copy that“Nature is not ours but we borrowed it from our future generation.”  Today I deeply feel that we need peace not only among people  but also peace between people and nature..

Nail Can Reveal Your Health

Nail Can Reveal Your Health

Your fingernails can provide clues to your overall health. For an instance, when our body is healthy, nails can grow well. Fingernails and toenails are far away from the heart but they are linked venule with arteriole without capillary vessels.

The region directly linked venula with arteriole is called glomerulus. Now that such glomerulus is largely distributed, problems in the liver, lungs and heart can show up in your nails.

Healthy nails are usually 0,5mm thick, hard and transparent pink. When you press the fingernails, at first they turn white and then return to their original color within 3 seconds.

If it takes longer than 3 seconds, it may be doubt of the following health problems: anemia, lack of hormone, menstrual pains or irregular menstruation.In addition, when the color of the fingernails are close to pale white without pink, it may be doubt of malnutrition or tuberculosis.

That's why proper nail care is very important. In general, women give attention to care for fingernails: they have their nails grow well and they paint the nails with pretty colors. No matter how clean you keep your long nails, it is difficult to prevent the propagation of bacteria.

The longer the nails, the more bacteria may increase. According to dermatology's data, the major bacteria in the fingernails are as follows: bacillus pneumonia, a urinary infection, yeasts that cause blood infection and staphylococcus.

When you cut the fingernails, it is good to leave about 1-2mm distal edge. On cold and dry days, the fingernails are apt to get cracked and chapped just like hands. If your nail cuticle is easily flaky and splitting, it may signal insufficient nutrition of the fingernail.

To keep your fingernails moist and glossy, it is necessary to use hand cream on hands and moisturize the nails with cuticle cream. Also, you should cut nails straight across if possible and take a close look at the shape and color of the nails while cutting them. Easy and correct habits are conductive to good health.

I hope you will stay healthy through simple and easy ways. 

Bugs for the future nutrition food for 20 billion people in global village?

At present, the world population is approximately 70 billion.  It will be 90 billion in 2040 according to the report.  The farmland is limited and the crop harvest is getting worse because of global warming.The future foods may be Cyanophats, fabricated foods and processed  foods. Lately, UN recommended bugs. A worm has higher protein and 10 times more calcium than beef.  The expenses for feeding the bugs are 1/12 less than that of animals. FAO suggested recipes for bug dishes for a restaurant menu. The ranking of edible bugs is a beetle first, and  next, worm, bee, ant, grasshopper, cricket, spider, scorpion etc. East Asian countries such as Vietnam, China, Thailand, and Latin American countries such as Mexico and Columbia eats bugs but most of Westerncountries tend to disgust. I heard that our previous generation ate grasshoppers when I was young.  In memory of those days, sometimes people eat roasted bugs as an event in the country festival.  I thought that eating bugs is a story  of old days when food was wanting, but  now I am afraid that we are likely to have bugs as the future food due to  the shortage of food.  I wish that individuals and nations work together in order to make the healthy and affluent society worldwide.

Apple CEO, Tim Cook Coming Out

Apple CEO, Tim Cook Coming Out

After Steve Jobs died if pancreatic cancer, Tim Cook, became a new CEO Of Apple Inc., told everyone that he is gay.

 < Tim Cook & Steve Jobs >

Last Oct. 30, Apple’s CEO, Tim Cook confessed that he is a gay through his article on a weekly economy, “Business week”, whose title was “Tim Cook Speaks Up” Many celebrities admitted they are homosexuals in the meanwhile. But, it’ll have a great resonance that a man as a CEO of the company which come into the spotlight, outed as gay.

He said,"I am proud to homosexual characters. Many co-workers know I'm a gay, and I don't think that they won't be a change in the way on the ground of sexual orientation.. Also, "Because I'm a gay, I can understand deeply what is the minority, and when I, Apple's CEO, confess I'm a gay, I think that I can help those who people who are worried about who they are, or those who feel alone.
Also, Tim Cook quoted Martin Luther King. Jr.' word, the most important question that will not go away in life, is "What do you do for the other people?”, and  “Because of your greed to protect your privacy, you should not postpone the more important things.


★ The reaction for coming out

The founder as FaceBook, Mark Zuckerberg, former president, Bill Clinton from the southern, and a principal manager of Google, Sundar Pichai posted the writing in support about Tim Cook’s coming out. Besides, Huffingtonpost paid tribute of praise under the headline “Tim Cook changed the U.S. for the way Jobs never use.” And “It’s great that  the one of the biggest company in the U.S., Apple’s CEO outed as gay. 

The gay rights advocate in the U.S. presented reaction, “Now, there are no the homosexuality related laws in 29 States of the U.S. we hope that the recognition for discrimination on work-place or gender bias,etc., are changed.” Meanwhile, The nations that homosexuality is not human righted-issue, like China or Russia, reacted against Tim Cook’s remark and have sparked a boycott. A Russian politician said. “Tim Cook’s entry must be stopped. And Foreign Policy reported that China internet was fiiled with comments to laugh at him.

I, writing this, don’t agreed with homosexuality. But, leaving pro and cons about it, we should think and take time for self examination:’How often have we listened to minorities’ opinions?’, ‘How much have we considerated of positive discrimination?’, and  ‘How much and how long have we understand other people who have different thoughts and behaviors from me,

An Iranian Woman was Hanged in Iran for Murder Alleged Rapist Despite International Pleas

"I am telling you from the bottom of my heart that I don't want to have a grave for you to come and mourn there and suffer."

Reyhaneh Jabbari, an Iranian woman, was executed on suspicion of murder of a man she claimed had tried to sexually abuse her. In heartbreaking message to her mother Sholeh, Reyhaneh expressed her love and concern for mother.

When the message was open to the public, people felt pity for that Reyhaneh finished her short life of 26 years old not being admitted her plea of self-defence.On October 25, the execution day, National Council of Resistance of Iran released Reyhaneh's will in a voice message she had recorded for her mother.

Reyhaneh confessed her sufferings in the will as follows: "I don't want you to wear black clothing for me. Do your best to forget my difficult days. Give me to the wind to take away."

Also, Reyhaneh said that she wanted to give her internal organs to someone who needs them as a gift."I don't want to rot under the soil. I don't want my eyes or my young heart to turn into dust." She added a few more words to those who would be donated, "I don't want the recipient know my name, buy me a bouquet, or even pray for me."

Reyhaneh appealed for unfairness by saying,"If I hadn't stabbed the man, my body would have thrown in some corner of the city after having been raped."

In addition she criticized the stern realities of Iran."The murderer would have never been found since we don't have their wealth and their power."

The accident that had occurred in 2007 reversed Reyhaneh's life. Reyhaneh, 19-year-old, an interior designer, followed a man who had offered to hire her to redesign his office to an empty appartment. The man named Morteze Abdolai Sarbandi was a former employee in the Iran's Intelligence Ministry. As soon as they entered the house, Sarbandi allegedly tried to rape her. At that moment Reyhaneh took a pen knife out of her bag and stabbed him with it for the purpose of escaping from the urgent situation. And then Sarbandi died.

Reyhaneh had admitted stabbing the man once from behind to defend herself but she insisted another man killed him. However Iran's Supreme Court sentenced her to death as follow: In that she had purchased the knife two days before committing murder, it was definitely a deliberate murder. Reyhaneh's plea of self-defence was disregarded by judges. 

Reyhaneh Jabbari's death has occasioned some disquiet across the world. The Prosecution which should work for the sake of the national human rights and safety put an underprivileged woman to death to protect their agent. It is natural that this incident should incur blame for injustice treatment.

In spite of crying out for human rights and peace movements, such affairs are to be met with everywhere. Besides even at this moment such bad things could happen somewhere. As we are indifferent to such unjust affairs. They could occur continuously regarding them as lawfulness. All of our attention and efforts on the issue of injustice are truly needed. Thus, as a member of IPYG, I hope that IPYG will take the initiative in working. Let us all strive to make a safe and peace world with IPYG.
