Some random thoughts on MY politicians

I was reading this from this. It appears that with the insanity things the politicians are doing it is getting more and more insane and ridiculous to the level of... sorry I cant find the word!!
These people are giving religion a bad name just like the white crusader of Christians in the old europe history.(I dont know the real name given for those white color clothing Christians but most of you should know what I mean)

Some may have stereotyped certain religion through the influence of media and people around them

But like all religion I believe Islam at its purest core is just as good as any other religion. Its just the politicians.

Whatever is happening in Selangor with the war between PR and BN especially with the beer issue and condom is just absurb! People in Kelantan muslim and non muslim live in harmony and pork seller is right next to a muslim seller in the market. Where has education brought us to the so called developed and brain child state of Malaysia-Selangor?

What is mid life crisis?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midlife_crisis

Individuals experiencing a mid-life crisis have some of these feelings:

  • search of an undefined dream or goal
  • a deep sense of remorse for goals not accomplished
  • desire to achieve a feeling of youthfulness
  • need to spend more time alone or with certain peers

They exhibit some of these behaviors:

  • abuse of alcohol
  • conspicuous consumption—acquisition of unusual or expensive items such as motorbikes, boats, clothing, sports cars, jewelry, gadgets, tattoos, piercings, etc.
  • depression
  • paying special attention to physical appearance such as covering baldness, wearing "younger" designer clothes etc.
  • entering relationships with younger people

Apples

I have been eating apples for my breakfast, i keep peeling them off and my other colleague keep eating them. So I've googled and here goes the facts/comments by others

1)Skin is good -fact
2)skin has antioxidant -fact
3)skin has got pesticide and other chemicals on it -fact
4)most apples non organic which last for months has a layer of food grade wax on it -fact

  • Why the skin is important especialy the red delicious ones
They may not taste as good as other apple varieties, but AFAIK red delicious
skins contain a far greater concentration of the antioxidant flavonoid named
quercetin, than does any other variety of apple. This is also true of red
onions with respect to yellow/white varieties.

Other important sources of quercetin: black/green teas, cranberry, red wine,
brocolli, kale, spinach, whole buckwheat flour, undutched cocoa powder

  • Now how do you get rid of the wax?(the best answer i come across

Wash under clean, cool, tap water, scrub gently with clean vegetable brush and rinse again.

Some people use soap. I know someone who used bleach once. You should never use either.

Also, it is recommended that you do not just soak in water. Soaking in water just has the fruit sitting in the dirty water. Running it uner water is best.

You should also wait until just before you eat it to wash it. You shouldn't wash it and then store it because it can pick up unclean things while storing.
