Hi everyone,I read this article about the recent earthquake in Nepal.It is really sad to see alot of people lose their lives unexpectedly.You can wonder how many years it takes to build a house and it is painful to see the building go down in a seconds.These means all we have been working for all this while can be lost in a seconds.The earthquake was really terrible,it will be difficult to give the accurate number of people that loss their lives during the earthquake.Some could sill be trapped down there in the buildings, unable to call for help.

Gender Bias
http://www.npr.org/blogs/goatsandsoda/2015/04/19/400486373/see-priya-cook-gender-bias-pervades-textbooks-worldwide?utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=science
Hi everyone,I read an article about how gender bias pervades textbook worldwide.I think this has been going over the years.For example,in academic writing when the world ''men'' is used it generally means both male, and female but some kids may read an article that contains the word ''men'' and they may think it only means male.Moreover,some religious books such as the Holy Bible also contains the word ''sons'' and when some children or adult read this holy book they will think it only means sons.In addition,some people in Africa believes that women should not be doing hard jobs such as auto mechanics,truck drivers or construction jobs rather they should be doing jobs like marketing and sales jobs,accountant or bankers jobs.However,rewriting most of the textbooks used in schools will help to minimize the rate of gender bias in the world.

Preserving our memory
http://rss.cnn.com/~r/rss/cnn_health/~3/bz6UxF9VgiM/index.html
Hi everyone,I read an article about the ways one can prevent Alzheimer's disease which are socializing and doing creative activities such as painting,sewing,reading books.I think this new discovery would go a long way to reduce the rate of Alzheimer's disease in our society today.I believe all jobs really involve using your own brain.Although a lot of people are involve in one job or the other which they find to be boring; we should make our job fun,and try to think outside the box.It is good to try this way of life in order to stave the brain of Alzheimer's disease.In summary,all the message in this article is simply keeping the brain active.

The Right to Die Bill
http://www.npr.org/blogs/health/2015/04/03/397257185/california-faith-groups-divided-over-right-to-die-bill?utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=science
Hi friends,this article is about the right to die bill.In my won opinion I believe people should be given the right to make their own decision.If someone wants to die because of pains or fear of losing independency,then that's fine.It is better to be in peace than to be in pain and tears for an unknown period of time.Although some people may try opposing the bill because they don't know what it means to experience pain or depend on people totally for everything.God gave each one of us the power of choice, so we can decide what we want, and we are responsible for every decision we make in life.Hence whether someone choose to die or not,it is a choice.

Health benefits of cereal
http://rss.cnn.com/~r/rss/cnn_health/~3/clPtOrBiE1w/index.html
Hi everyone,I read an article about the health benefits of eating cereal.who would have imagine that cereal would be a meal that can prolong ones life.Although I usually take cereal but not every morning.However,I bought this cereal called ''roast flakes' which is full of sugar,I did not enjoy eating it,and I trashed the remaining cereal.Now that I have knowledge of its health benefits.I will start eating it every morning.Moreover,I will advice those who hate foods that contains high fiber to consider eating cereal because of some dreadful diseases such as cancers,inflammation and obesity.Additionally,if some of us can take bitter pills every morning due to illness then what stops us from taking cereal every day.Also think about this medical saying ''prevention is better than cure''.

Maternal Death
http://www.npr.org/blogs/goatsandsoda/2015/03/15/392886495/how-far-has-the-health-of-moms-come-since-1995?utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=science
Hi everyone,I read this article about the rate at which women have lost their lives during child birth and it sounds alarming.I think women are also occupied with the whole house works such as cleaning,sweeping and cooking which could be very stressful.Moreover,the pain women go through child birth is beyond word description.In countries like Indian and Nigeria where the rate of maternal death are high,some certain measures should be put in place such as providing skilled attendants at birth,ensuring free maternal care for everybody and providing health care facilities in all the states.However,poverty rate in countries like Indian and Nigeria could also lead to child death during birth or maternal death.I could remember what happen to my friend in Nigeria;when she was in labour ready for child birth,her husband struggled to take her to a general hospital.When they got to the hospital,they were told that there is no bed so they can't take them in.Hence,the husband manage to get a taxi for the wife who was in pain but before they could get to another hospital due to the heavy traffic in the city of Lagos;the woman gave birth to a dead child inside the car.There are countless of stories of how women have either lost their child or their lives as a result of improper care.In addition,women should be given maternal health education both formal and informally on what to eat and do during the period of pregnancy.
