 Jack the Ripper in America

There were many suspects in the Jack the Ripper murders over the years. What are the evidences that support the claim that James Kelly was Jack the Ripper? If you are a rival detective, how do you eliminate all the evidence that you've identified in the documentary?



Jack the Ripper is a serial killer in 1888 where until now people do not find the real identity of him even though there are over one hundred Jack the Ripper suspect have been proposed. Based on the documentary Jack the Ripper in America, Ed Norris which is a retired detective, he believe that Jack the Ripper is a person names James Kelly. He finds several evidences that show Kelly was the killer.

The first evidence is Kelly was murdered his wife in 1883 less in one month of his marriage by stabbing his wife in the neck. This is because he found that his wife has another man. Nevertheless, he doing so because he was not in a good emotion where people when they are angry they will lost their control and do something beyond their thinking.

The next evidence is Kelly was committed to the Broadmoor Asylum, and he was escaped on 1888 from there by using his own key. However, there is no evidence that shows Kelly was in Whitechapel since the police could not find him for almost 40 years.      

The third evidence is Kelly has worked as a furniture upholsterer which this job requires hardiness with a knife. However, as we know Ripper was an expert since he was using the equipment that is related to operation and he knew about human’s organ where Ripper must be someone who is knowledgeable about human body since Kelly does not have it.

In conclusion, James Kelly is not the Jack the Ripper because the evidences do not really show that he was the murder.

From Hell


As we know, Jack the Ripper is a serial killer in 1888 who was killed many female prostitutes by cut their throats and also removes some of the organs in their body. After watched the movie, I found that some plot is accurate to the historical fact in the JTR murders and some aspect of the plot is based on the filmmakers' own imagination.

 First and foremost, the plot in the movie that is accurate to the historical fact in the Jack the Ripper is how the prostitutes were murdered. As we can see in the movie Mary Ann Nichols, Annie Chapman, Elizabeth Stride and also Mary Jane Kelly were murdered same like the historical fact

Scrawled and misspelled note reading: From hell—Mr Lusk—Sir I send you half the kidne I took from one woman prasarved it for you tother piece I fried and ate it was very nise I may send you the bloody knif that took it out if you only wate a whil longer—Signed Catch me when you can Mishter Lusk

. The other plot that is accurate to the historical fact is the “From Hell” letter where this letter came with a small box that contains a kidney. However, the plot that is based on the filmmakers’ own imagination is the death of Martha Tabram which she was killed by 39 stabs, but in the movie itself she has been killed same goes to other victims

SUPER SIZE ME




Based on the facts presented in this documentary are you convinced that fast food is the main cause of obesity in United States and around the world?

Nowadays people usually eat at fast food restaurants such as Mac Donald’s, KFC, Burger King and Wendy’s. They just take an easy way to get a food instead of cooking at home. They just simply go to the fast food restaurants with their family or their buddies where the fast food restaurants are everywhere with a huge number of them. Each day one of four American visited the fast food restaurants and this is the reason why America has obesity problems among their society including the children.

 In the film,  a person doing the experiments on himself by eating only Mac Donald’s food within 30 days without eating other food. He ate at the Mac Donald’s three times per day where he must eat every menu that Mac Donald’s has served. At the first before he do the experiments he has meet three doctors which is internal medicine, gastroenterologist & herpetologist and also cardiologist. He also has seen nutritionist& dietician and exercise physiologist.

The rules that he must follow are can only super size when asked, can only eat food from Mac Donald’s, water include, has to eat everything on the menu at least once, and must eat three meals per day. Thus, he has no other choice where he has to follow the rules.

After watching the documentary, it is clearly that fast food is not the main cause of obesity in United States and around the world.  As we can see, other than fast food there is variety of food that people can eat which are healthy and good foods. They can make a better choice for themselves. So if they found that fast food is the main cause of obesity, then do not go and eat it. As a human they have the right to choose what is good and what is bad for them. The one who we have to put the blame on is ourselves.

ANCIENT ALIENS: THE EVIDENCE



State several evidence which support the ancient astronaut theory. Discuss whether you agree or disagree to the evidence that you have identified.
Millions of people around the world believe that in the past we have visited with being which is not in this world where they believe it is an alien. Scientist have make research in order to prove it. Most of the scientists have found several evidences that can prove that alien actually existed in the past.

The first evidence is in Egypt which located in Kyra. There is a building name Sakkara, the city of dead. It was there in 1891. The French archeologist on earth ancient found that the Sakkara bird is different with other birds where the wings and also the tail are totally different. It is like a component that highly developed.

The other evidence is at a jungle in Colombia where many of treasures hunter believe the legendary of gold live here. Among the objects that have found 100 of small gold. Many of those looks like insect and fish, however out of those 100 they also found a weird shape but it is looks like a fighter jet which it is triangle shape and stabilize and nothing similar in nature because there is no such insect that has wing in the bottom. It is look like a plane. The scientists said that both of these examples from the opposite planet and both are flying.

Another example is at India which a fly machine is called Vimana. The scientist found that the fly machine is the description of space ship where Vimana used proposition system based on the combination of electricity and mercury.

Based on the evidence that has given I totally do not agree that alien is exist. Since the scientist do not provide much evidence and the evidence that has shown also do not strong that said alien is exist.

For example like the Sakkara bird. I know that the bird is look different but maybe people in the past have change the illustration physical of the bird since no one can prove the evidence that they found is actually a real bird. But maybe people in the past have found by themselves how a bird can fly. Thus they create something like a bird as we can see like airplane.

WEEK 3- A LEADER'S LEGACY TUN ABDUL RAZAK


A LEADER'S LEGACY TUN ABDUL RAZAK

Discuss whether or not Tun Abdul Razak's son, our current prime minister, Datuk Seri Najib is continuing his father's legacy primarily in affirmative action policy.




             
Tun Abdul Razak was the second prime minister of Malaysia. He is the father of development. During his administration as a prime minister, he was launching the Malaysian New Economic Policy where this policy is to help poor people and to reducing inequity among people especially Malays who live in rural area. His target is to reduce the poverty among Malays. He was the person who is responsible creating the affirmative action, which is by providing social and economic privileges to majority Malays population. Nevertheless, his son, Datuk Sri Najib Tun Razak which is the current prime minister does not continuing his father’s legacy primarily in affirmative action policy. This is because Datuk Sri Najib was launched a campaign known as 1 Malaysia where this campaign is for Malaysians people. 1 Malaysia is a concept where all Malaysian is equal. Meanings that all people are the same even with different races, religion, colour and also position. All people will get benefit through this campaign. It is clearly that Datuk Sri Najib does not continuing his father’s legacy.







New Economic Policy (NEP) is actually a system that providing social and economic privileges to majority of Malay’s population and it become huge problems among the other ethnics where they claims that NEP is unjust. In Al Jazeera 101 East the talk show about New Economic Policy (NEP), the guest that I choose is Azeem Farouk who is a political scientist.

Discourse Analysis

CONCLUSION
NEP should have to make a new strategy in order to gain confident from people
PREMISE 1
NEP is a good policy that will always be relevant regardless of ethnicity and races
ARGUMENT 1
NEP has two strategies which are reduction of poverty and also restructuring of society
PREMISE 2
The NEP has to be fine tune and implemented to benefit everyone across the board
ARGUMENT 2
There should be some form of policy that could be in support the majority group


Based on the discourse analysis above, I would like to agree with his statement on all his premises. He stated that the NEP should have to make a new strategy in order to gain confident from people. This is because the other ethnics and races tend to said that NEP is actually unfair for them where it is just helps Malays and not the Malaysian’s people. They also need the same privileges like Malays. Not all the people in their society are the rich people. There are also poor people that might need the help. Therefore the government and political party should consider regarding this matter where they should provide help and support for the other races in order not to be unjust and to live in peacefully without any conflict or whatsoever.

WEEK 2- GANDHI, FATHER OF INDIA

GANDHI MY FATHER


Harilal is the eldest son of Gandhi where he died because of his own mistake which is being an alcoholic. He never success in everything that he did. He put the blame on his father because his father does not giving him the opportunity to be a barrister in England. Gandhi doing so because his son has failed three times in matriculation and he give that opportunity to other people who he think that people can do it. But Harilal blame his father because being bias and does not trust him

However, even though he does not give the chance to Harilal, he is always giving support for everything that Harilal did. For example in that movie, when Harilal wants to convert to Islam, he just accepts it as long as it is good for him, and he can be a better person. He never stopped him from doing something that he wants. He want Harilal learn from mistakes and be a successful person. So, Harilal is the one who is responsible for the tragic end of his life. 



GANDHI


Gandhi is a father of India. He fights for the civil right of Muslim and Hindu. After watching the movie, I found that Gandhi has failed in his life work which is to promote non-violence and reuniting the people of India.

He told his people that they will not get anything with violence. He wants to promote non-violence to his people, but the people using the violence in order to get independence from British. If they do not using the violence, they will not get the independence. This means he has failed to persuade his people not to use violence in their life. 


To unite the people, it is not an easy thing to do. For reuniting the people of India, he made strong effort in other to unite the people. He tried his best and put all effort in order to unite the people. He was imprisoned too many times, but his spirit never lost. For me, he is a great man.

WEEK 1- TEST YOUR BRAIN & SHERLOCK HOLMES


Test Your Brain !


               The documentary Test Your Brain is really awesome. I found that we have to focus not only at one thing, but at the whole things.  It is not what you look at, it is what you see.

               The first eureka moment that I have experienced is the scene in game one where that guy want to change $1 to $100. When he shows the magic, I am just paying attention at the money.  I did not notice that his hat, handkerchief and also the background has changed. And when he shows back how he does it, I said “wow, amazing!".

               The second eureka moment is the scene in game four. When Apollo Robbins steals the things from that guy, at first I just found that he just steal the scarf because I can see it clearly. But then, after he plays back the video I was so shock where there are four things that he steals which are scarf, wallet, mobile phone and also handkerchief.

               Next is the scene in game seven. When he put the things into the cup and then he change it to drink. I am just focusing at the cup and I did not realize that there are three person in animal mascots walked behind him.

               Another scene is in game nine. The host asks the audience to count how many steps that the Jabawaki step into the spotlight. And I also count it. When he asking “how many people see the penguin going through?” I said penguin? I did not see it. I did not expect that the penguin will walked behind the Jabawaki dancer.  And when I take another look, then I realize that I am not really paying attention.



Sherlock Holmes ~ A Study in Pink

Sherlock Holmes is a wonderful person. After watching the movie Sherlock Holmes a Study in Pink, I think he is a right brain hemisphere. He has the ability to solve problems by putting himself in a person situation or problem. He also can describe a person just by looking at that people.


For example, when he tries to solve the case of the lady in pink dress, he assumes that the lady is a serial adulterer and not happy with her marriage for almost ten years just by looking at her ring. He also assumes that the lady has a suitcase just by looking at her hand. He has to find the suitcase in order to find the killer. After he got the suitcase, he asks Watson to send a message to a number. He said that the number is belongs to that lady, and if the murderer has the phone, he will be panic if he got the message.  


So it is true that Sherlock is a right brain hemisphere which he is an emphatic person where he can read and able to understand people.
