Obama problems, my views

WELCOME TO OUR BLOG, Menfranco general blog. In addition to our own posts about, my life story, and some DIY posts, we are going to publish some world wide issues that we are writing, about what is happening in the world today and other stuff.

Welcome to our blog, Menfranco general blog
and this post, Obama problems, my views

Obama problems, in my views
-
The President of the US Barack Obama is a good man, but in my views he has got a problem with his own people, because he cannot guide them as their leader, since he doesn't talk to them as if he his their patriarch. Since in that position, he could tell them what to do. He talks to them as their brothers and let them do whatever they want. So, he has lost a great opportunity while he was in office.
Another thing that worries me, is that he seems to like the Muslim people instead of their usual friends the Israelite.
 
Obama problems, in my views

Welcome to our post Obama problems, my views
Dear readers, this post and a couple more posts after this, they are not the usual posts that we post, because we feel that we have a few things else important enough to say, we will come back to our usual post after that. Now let me tall you what I want to say.
------------------

Barack Obama, the most potent leader in the world has got a leadership problem.
Dear readers, today I would like to say something about the outgoing US president Barack Obama, as I feel that we had a greater expectation from him, when he took office 8 years ago, we thought then that he would have been able to control the racial issues that exist in America better than any other person, since he would represent those people that felt discriminated from the rest of the main communities, but this did not happen for many reasons, one of the reasons I believe is Obama himself, so, in this article, I am going to write some of my personal views why it did not work. I am writing also what is happening now, and why I don’t agree with it. However, let me first explain why I am writing this article.  
You see, I have written a few articles about the Italian problems lately, since I am an Italian and I felt that I wanted to have my say, having written those problems and the politics part that goes with it. When I watched the world news, I became concerned about the American politics and about what I heard President Barack Obama is doing these days, because I don’t agree with what he is doing now. So, I started thinking that I would write my own views about what is happening over there and how I feel about what Obama is doing now, which I found somehow distressing, he seems a changed man, since they lost the presidential election. I know that what I am doing now is not my business, because I don’t live in America and I am not an American citizen, but so what, when you feel that you have something to say, then it would be better if you say it anyhow.
Now, this is only my opinion, and I don’t claim that I am perfect in this politics matters, but in my personal views, President Obama is doing the unthinkable, because he gets busy to do what would have been better left alone. He could have left everything as it is until the new president and new administration takes over. But he seems to feel personally hurt, because his party didn’t win the last Presidential elections, so, he wants to blame other people for his own failure. He is still thinking that he could win an election again, and perhaps he could, because he is a very good speaker, but that might not be enough to win elections. Because sometimes you need original policies that the people like to win them. Also, to be a president, you should be able to be right with your policies all the time, which is very hard to achieve. So, he should look at what he has done during his time has president, and ask himself, if there was something that he could have done better, which I believe there are a few things that he could have done better.
So, one could ask, what is wrong with him? Is he not aware that he has made some minor mistakes during his term? Yes, he has made some mistakes because he did. I believe that he has never done much during his eight years in office, at least this is how most people will see it in the wide world, but the worst part is that he does not admit that he did something wrong, so, he still believes that what made him win his two-presidential election would still work today, which in my opinion, it is not possible, because things change, and also people like to change to other policies.   
So, one could ask what sort of mistakes were made during his term? To answer that question one should go back to see what Obama beliefs were, and how he would have liked to run the American politics, which he did, but could never fulfil what he wanted to do. One of the reasons why he could not achieve what he wanted to do, it was because he did not put the welfare of all Americans first, he sided with the poor and the American-African people, because he is an American-African himself. Now, I should ask for forgiveness for using the term American-African, but I had to make it clear, because Barack Obama did not try to stop his friends doing nasty things, since he feels that he is one of them.  
In my opinion, no leader should put at risk his own law and order government force, like the police and other institutions created to uphold the law of the country, but Obama did, because he didn’t state to the people that he represented clearly that the police forces were doing their job, and if (they) the people would follow their orders it would have been better, since everything would run in a more peaceful way. But what Obama did was the following, most times he was saying that he sided with the trouble maker people, telling them that he was on their side, and he was calling an investigation. Being the top leader of the most powerful nation on earth, Obama should have known better and should have tried harder to stop what was going on. He should have told the people first to respect the law and be good honest citizen, so that the police had no reason to punish them.
Therefore, this Obama behaviour made things worse, because those people that were robing went on robing and became more violent against the police. One would ask, what sort of leader is that? I believe that no leader should side with anybody. What has happened and is happening in America is proof of that. Therefore, it is a good thing that the entire administration is changing, and they can start all over again in a new direction, with somebody else as President.
Other Obama things I cannot agree with.
Now, we have talked about the American people only, but what about the foreign policies that I cannot agree with. I know that here again it is not my business because it does not affect me directly, but nevertheless I have an opinion, which I would like to share.
One of those foreign policies that I don’t agree with, it is the way Obama administration has done to Israel, after so many years of backing Israel they left Israel on its own, at least this is how I understand the situation, so, let us talk a bit about this.
We should admit that Israel seems doing something that does not agree with their neighbour. But at the same time Israel has the right to exist. So, the Israelite neighbours are even worse than Israel. Because they don’t want to accept that Israel exists and is there to stay. They should ask themselves, where do they think, the world can place a new nation of Israel? I am sure nowhere except where Israel is right now. So, the Arabic people should really understand that they cannot destroy an entire nation just because they don’t like it being there. If they use logic reasoning, which most times they don’t, and if they believe in any God that has created all humanity, it would be obvious that the planet earth is there for everybody to share.
Anyhow Obama did not back up Israel and there could be more problems from this decision. I believe that Obama should have done what America has done most times, and since he is going out soon he should have left out this decision to the new administration, especially because the new administration that is coming soon does not agree with what he has done.  
Today on the news, again some terrorist or deranged person has killed some Israelite soldiers with a truck. Maybe they are getting bolder since America does not back up Israel as they used to, so, this is possible, because they would like to think that Israel disappears altogether. Here I would like to point it out that in that corner of the Middle East, these fighting each other to possess that land, it has gone on since the beginning of the known history of mankind. I could say more if I describe some of the known history that is even written in the Bible, but I will stop here, since here we are talking what the American policies can cause.     
Just one more thing
This is about Barack Obama sending home 35 Russian diplomats, for taking part in some obscure spying on the internet, which in Obama beliefs caused the loss of the presidential election for Hilary Clinton. In my opinion, it would have been more helpful for themselves and America, if the outgoing president Barack Obama and Hilary Clinton forget about it, because this could only make it worse for everybody, what can they gain from this action. Nothing at all, now the elections are lost and they have to wait at least another 4 years, it they play it right. If they start doing silly thing like what they are doing now, by sending home some Russian diplomats, just because they feel hurt, then the 4 years might become 8 years or more. People usually remember these things.
At this very moment, it looks already bad for Obama, because the Russian President Vladimir Putin is not reacting and he is going to wait for the new American President to be sworn in, in the hope that they could fix this damage that Obama is creating. Perhaps Obama is creating this just to make it harder for the new administration.
Here, I want to point out that any good leader should put the nation he is leading first, and not his own personal desires. Anyhow I believe that I have said a few things already, so, I better stop writing about Obama leadership.
I believe that anyone reading this article are going to ask themselves, to which party I would belong, so let me explain. I don’t belong to Donald Trump’s party, because he backs the rich people only, but if he is able to use the rich people to give enough work to the middle class, then I could back him.  I am a bit more inclined to back Obama and Clinton party, if they stop following the poor blindly, and this poor section of the community that are usually greedy, and want to rob other people of their hard-earned things that they own.
In other words, if I was a voting American, I would like the Obama-Clinton party to have a policy that looks more to the hard-working middle class and not just those poor people that are unwilling to work and want to rip anybody off, for any reason at all. You see today most politicians make this mistake, they don’t care much about the hard-working middle class, because they try hard to look after themselves. But the politicians should realize that those are the people that make the nation great, and if the politicians side only with the poor people, then the nation soon or later will become poor. I hope you see my point of view.
That is all folks, I have had my say.
See you next time, which will be about the Australian government pensions.

Improving your memory

WELCOME TO OUR BLOG, IN ADDITION TO OUR OWN POSTS, WE HOPE TO BE ABLE TO SUPPLY SOME USEFUL INFORMATION TO OUR READERS, SINCE WE ARE GOING TO WRITE SOME DO IT YOURSELF POSTS.
-
Welcome to our blog, menfranco general blog
and this post, improving your memory

perhaps even thinking of places where you have been before could help your memory

You are invited to browse and take part in the discussions that follow.

Improving your memory
This post here I believe could be useful to anyone; I have found this information on the Internet, so, I am also giving you the links if you want to know more, all you have to do is click on links below.
-
To do things;
write a to do list.

Interesting Info -> Psychology -> Improving Memory
Improving your Memory
Tips and techniques to help you remember...

...you know, that thing... I forgot. 

Great for students...but other folks could benifet from these tips, as well.

Having problems forgetting appointments, to-dos, errands, feeding your children and pets, picking up after yourself, getting out of bed... not to mention forgetting birthdays, and even anniversaries?

If you are like many people, you will often find yourself forgetting something. In an age of computers, PDA’s, and many other devices - this may be ok for some folks, unless you forget where you put those devices. Others may want to increase their ability to memorize things - luckily there are a few creative ways you can improve your long and short term memory. 
Use your Senses & Be Aware

Practice creating vivid images/concepts in your head - using all of your senses. Analyse your surroundings by sound, sight, smell, taste, and touch. Being aware all of your senses will give your mind more ways to associate (and thus remember) when it is time to recall something.

This is like form of meditation -- which is good for your brain in a variety of ways. (see our article: 
Interesting Ways to Improve Your Brain for more info). 
Memory and Concentration Games on Blifaloo.com:

Memory 3 

Memorize color patterns to test your short term memory.
Music Memory
Test your memory while training your musical ear with this game.

Balls & Boxes Memory Game
Use your memory and put the balls back into their original boxes.

Classic Memory Game
Old-school card matching memory game.

Practice this tip of simply being more aware of your surroundings every day and you will find your general memory greatly improved. 
Humor & Vulgarity

If you need to memorize something specific try using humor or vulgarity as a memory aid.

Make a nasty or funny limerick or poem about something that needs to be remembered and you'll have a hard time forgetting. (Great tip for students).

Example: Guitar students are sometimes taught to remember the common 5 string tuning of EADGBE with this:

Every Asshole Does Good But Eddie
Don't worry, be Mindful

There has been a lot said about the power of positive thinking. Recently, a huge bandwagon of new-age positive thought = positive outcome theories have been on tips of everyone's tongue from Oprah to your local convenience store clerk. Just do a google search for "Law of Attraction" or "The Secret" if you aren't in the cult loop.

Negative thoughts fog our minds, but clearing out the negative and focusing on the positive also improves memory & concentration.

Stress is a big brain buster, so minimize stress and negative thoughts to keep your wits.

Apt Quote: “What to do if you find yourself stuck in a crack in the ground underneath a giant boulder you can't move, with no hope of rescue. Consider how lucky you are that life has been good to you so far. Alternatively, if life hasn't been good to you so far, which given your current circumstances seems more likely, consider how lucky you are that it won't be troubling you much longer.” - Douglas Adams
See the Future

Have trouble remembering to-dos, appointments, meetings, deadlines, birthdays and other future events?

Here is the secret: When you know you have an upcoming event you don't want to forget, picture yourself at the event. What are you doing, who is there, what does it smell like? Imagine the event...even better: imagine yourself taking the steps that lead to the event.

For example, let's say tomorrow you have to call the someone. Picture yourself in your home/office, picture yourself picking up the phone, imagine dialling the number and talking to the person of the other end. 
Associate

Association is among one of the easiest and most used tools in learning. This is the process of taking the information you wish to memorize, and linking it mentally to something else that is natural to you. When learning something new, try to associate the new concept with one to which you are already familiar.

Couple association with being aware using all of your senses and you will have a higher rate of successful recall. 
Chunky like your mom

Chunking information is a great mnemonic method to remember multiple items. Many people naturally use chunking to remember phone numbers: Instead of thinking "17342876642" we chunk it as 1-734-287-6642. 

The concept of chunking comes from a famous 1956 paper by George A. Miller: The Magical Number Seven, Plus or Minus Two: Some Limits on our Capacity for Processing Information. If you are a sucker for classic works in the history of psychology (I know, who isn't?) you can read the 
whole original paper here
Write it Down

We generally think of "writing things down" as a means to NOT have to remember something. The paper does the work for -- we just need to remember where we put that piece of paper...

But, writing things down has another effect: you clear your mind and take away the stress of "having to remember", and by doing so you actually have more room in your noggin for remembering stuff. I know that explanation wasn't scientific, but it works.

To-do lists are championed by business gurus and soccer moms alike. Try writing everything down for a week or two and see how much this improves your memory & focus. A great digital tool for "writing things down" is provided by a website called 
Nozbe.com -- I recommend it for clearing your head and also organizing your thoughts.

The healing power of baking soda

Overlooked 150 Year Old Household Cleaner a Remedy for Swine Flu?

In today's modern world of medicine the FDA just will not let companies that sell products make medical claims about them unless they have been tested at great expense, and approved as a drug. But this was not always the case.
In a 1924 booklet published by the Arm & Hammer Soda Company, the company starts off saying, "The proven value of Arm & Hammer Bicarbonate of Soda as a therapeutic agent is further evinced by the following evidence of a prominent physician named Dr. Volney S. Cheney, in a letter to the Church & Dwight Company:
"In 1918 and 1919 while fighting the 'Flu' with the U. S. Public Health Service it was brought to my attention that rarely any one who had been thoroughly alkalinized with bicarbonate of soda contracted the disease, and those who did contract it, if alkalinized early, would invariably have mild attacks."
Recommended dosages from the Arm and Hammer Company for colds and influenza back in 1925 were:
• During the first day take six doses of half teaspoonful of Bicarbonate of Soda in glass of cool water, at about two hour intervals
• During the second day take four doses of half teaspoonful of Bicarbonate of Soda in glass of cool water, at the same intervals
• During the third day take two doses of half teaspoonful of Bicarbonate of Soda in glass of cool water morning and evening, and thereafter half teaspoonful in glass of cool water each morning until cold is cured

Dr. Mercola's Comments
Baking soda (also known as sodium bicarbonate), popularized by Arm & Hammer some 155 years ago, is derived from a natural occurring mineral, and is one of the safest and most versatile substances around. In fact, if you search for "baking soda" on my site, you'll find a number of articles detailing its potential uses, including using it as a:
• Household cleaner
• Sunburn remedy
• Alternative to toxic antiperspirants
• Sports performance enhancer
Few people realize, however, that baking soda also has potent medicinal properties. Taken internally, it helps maintain the pH balance in your bloodstream. This is likely the basic premise behind its recommended uses against both colds and influenza symptoms, and even cancer.
Baking Soda as an All-Natural Cold Remedy
In their booklet "Arm & Hammer Baking Soda Medical Uses," published in 1924, Dr. Volney S. Cheney recounts his clinical successes with sodium bicarbonate in treating cold and flu:
"In 1918 and 1919 while fighting the 'flu' with the U. S. Public Health Service it was brought to my attention that rarely anyone who had been thoroughly alkalinized with bicarbonate of soda contracted the disease, and those who did contract it, if alkalinized early, would invariably have mild attacks.
I have since that time treated all cases of 'cold,' influenza and LaGripe by first giving generous doses of bicarbonate of soda, and in many, many instances within 36 hours the symptoms would have entirely abated.
Further, within my own household, before Woman's Clubs and Parent-Teachers' Associations, I have advocated the use of bicarbonate of soda as a preventive for "colds," with the result that now many reports are coming in stating that those who took "soda" were not affected, while nearly everyone around them had the "flu."
According to the Materia Medica by Walter Bastedo, sodium bicarbonate taken internally can soothe your mucous membranes and dissolve thick mucus.
It's worth noting that I have personally never tried this cold remedy, but I wouldn't be surprised if it worked, as maintaining proper acid-alkalinity balance in your body will have a beneficial impact on your natural immune system function.
If any of you have experience using baking soda as a cold remedy, I'd love to hear about it.
The administration is easy enough, and is harmless even if you should not experience relief from your cold symptoms. Simply dissolve the recommended amount of baking soda in a glass of cold water and drink it.
Recommended dosages from the Arm & Hammer Company for colds and influenza back in 1925 were:
• Day 1 -- Take six doses of ½ teaspoon of baking soda in glass of cool water, at about two hour intervals
• Day 2 -- Take four doses of ½ teaspoon of baking soda in glass of cool water, at the same intervals
• Day 3 -- Take two doses of ½ teaspoon of baking soda in glass of cool water morning and evening, and thereafter ½ teaspoon in glass of cool water each morning until cold symptoms are gone
Further dosing recommendations and instructions for taking sodium bicarbonate can be found in Mark Sircus' book Sodium Bicarbonate – Rich Mans Poor Mans Cancer Treatment, which is also available in Kindle edition.
According to Arm & Hammer's dosing instructions, do not exceed seven doses of ½ teaspoon per day, or three doses of ½ teaspoon daily if you're over the age of 60. In addition, do not use the maximum dosage for more than two weeks.
The Potent Healing Power of Baking Soda
Dr. Tullio Simonici and Mark Sircus, Ac, OMD both advocate using baking soda for even the most serious of diseases – cancer!
Unfortunately, despite all the evidence showing that baking soda indeed has enormous potential as an effective and non-toxic cancer treatment, conventional medicine is refusing to take notice, as baking soda will never be a huge profit center for any drug company.
Even worse, the industry tries to discredit or downright destroy those who dare bring inexpensive treatment options like baking soda to the forefront. Make no mistake about it, cancer treatment is big business, and for all the promises to find a cure, there seems to be an unwritten law somewhere stating it will only be studied and accepted if there's big profits to be had.
Dr. Simoncini, who is an oncologist (cancer specialist), was ousted from the medical community when he refused to use conventional cancer treatment methods and elected instead to administer sodium bicarbonate.
This despite the fact that he's been able to show that 99 percent of breast- and bladder cancer can heal in just six days, entirely without the use of surgery, chemo or radiation, using just a local infiltration device (such as a catheter) to deliver the sodium bicarbonate directly to the infected site in your breast tissue or bladder!
You can watch actual before and after footage of the treatment working in this video.
In his book Winning the War on Cancer, Dr. Sircus writes:
"Sodium bicarbonate is the time honored method to 'speed up' the return of the body's bicarbonate levels to normal. Bicarbonate is inorganic, very alkaline and like other mineral type substances, supports an extensive list of biological functions.

Sodium bicarbonate happens to be one of our most useful medicines because bicarbonate physiology is fundamental to life and health."
Many chemotherapy treatments actually include sodium bicarbonate to help protect the patient's kidneys, heart and nervous system. It's been said that administering chemotherapy without bicarbonate could possibly kill you on the spot.
Could it be that while mixing chemo poisons with baking soda, any improvements seen are the result of the baking soda, and not the toxic poisons? Dr. Sircus believes that may be the case.
"There are no studies separating the effects of bicarbonate from the toxic chemotherapy agents, nor will there ever be," he says.
Final Thoughts
If you keep an open mind, you will quickly learn that there are numerous ways to support your body in healing that have nothing to do with toxic drugs, vaccines, or surgery, even when it comes to a serious condition like cancer.
For my Top 12 all-natural cancer prevention strategies, please review my previous article, Winning the War on Cancer.
As for preventive measures against cold and flu, please read through the three articles listed below. They're all chockfull of helpful tips and guidelines to make cold and flu symptoms a thing of the past.

What Science Can Tell About Us from Our Hands
In the past, many cultures thought that hands had a prophetic value. Based on the structure and lines on the hand, they believed they could discover things about themselves and their future. This practice evolved into what is known today as palmistry, and like other forms of divination -- it has not been taken seriously by science.

But, what if there is some truth to palmistry?
What can science tell about us from our hands?

Over the past decade, research has found that the hand does have merit as an instrument to gauge heath, innate abilities, personality traits, and even sexuality.



















Digit Ratio
One of the most fascinating things discovered about hands is the ratio between the second and fourth digit and its link to levels of testosterone and estrogen. This has become known as the "Digit Ratio" or "2D : 4D ratio", and is obtained when the length of the second (index/ 2D) finger is measured, and divided by the length of the fourth (ring/4D) finger. (see fig. 1).

This ratio has been found to be one of the only sexually dimorphic (different norms for men and women) characteristics that are fixed before puberty. Men tend to have longer fourth (ring) fingers compared to their index finger, while women have longer index fingers comparatively.

Simplified, the fourth fingers length is positively correlated to testosterone, while the second (index) finger with estrogen. In Europeans 2D:4D ranges between 1.0 and 0.96, with females tending towards the higher values and males tending towards the lower. In other populations 2D : 4D may be different.


Check out this video with Professor John Manning explaining digit ratio.

He attempts to deduce the winner of a race by studying 5 athletes hands.

From the BBC documentary "Secret of the Sexes".

So what?

Males with a lower 2D:4D ratios (greater fetal exposure to testosterone) have been correlated with being more fertile, more aggressive, and having higher music & sports aptitude.

Men with higher 2D : 4D ratios have been found to be more at risk for heart disease.

Male to female transsexuals were found to have a higher digit ratio than control males, but one that was comparable to control females.

Lower digit ratios in women have been correlated (but not statistically significant) with lesbian/bisexual tendencies, along with with aggressiveness and assertiveness.

While women with higher digit ratios are more at risk for breast cancer, and more fertile.

Schizophrenic men and women were found to have higher digit ratios and a lower 2D:4D ratio has also been found more often in those with Autism.

Color of Hands
Beyond digit ratio, there are other medical clues we can gather from our hands.
The color and appearance of our hands can often be a good indicator of our general health:

Poor circulation (a symptom for a variety of ailments) can cause hands to take on a blue-ish hue.

Red hands may indicate cirrhosis of the liver.


Fingernails
Diabetes is often accompanied with "Terry's nails" (half white, half pink nails).

Blue fingernails can be sign of heavy metal poisoning, (very) poor circulation, lung or heart problems.

Yellow or green finger nails can indicate a respiratory problem.

Clubbing (nails curve over the fingertips) is often caused by low oxygen levels in the blood, and could be a sign of lung, liver or bowel disease.

Spoon nails (concave shaped) may indicate an iron deficiency.

Hand Lines & Fingerprints
Even the lines on our palms can have some medical significance -- certain swirl patterns are known to be associated with genetic disorders such as down syndrome.

























The presence of a single transverse palmar crease can be, but is not always, a symptom of certain medical conditions such as Fetal alcohol syndrome and genetic abnormalities including Down syndrome and Noonan syndrome.


















Males are twice as likely as females to have this condition. (see fig 2 & 3)

Fingerprints
Dermatoglyphics is the scientific study of fingerprints, and rare dermatoglyphic patterns often relate to genetic disorders. (see wikipedia article for more info)

In one study patients with Alzheimer's showed a significantly increased frequency of ulnar loops on their fingertips.

A pattern of eight or more ulnar loops was found significantly more often in patients with Alzheimer's (72%) than in the control group (26%).
(see fig4)



Cool Hand Fact:
Hands begin to form about four weeks after conception. By the end of the fourth month the formation of linese, ridges, and creases on the fingers and palms will be complete, and this structure will remain the same for the rest of the person's life. Making hands like a fossil record of our life in the uterus.

Conclusion
The hand can be viewed as a map of psychological development in the uterus much like the rings inside a tree mark its growth. They can be used to gauge levels of prenatal testosterone and estrogen in the uterine environment during the critical formative stages. Using this information, it is possible to measure what effect the prenatal environment had on physical development.

While it is not possible to look at hands to screen people for these particular traits, it is possible to see if they have a higher probability of them. 

I believe that I have said enough about this issue, so, see you in our next post, where we are going to talk about, the healing power of baking soda.
