JACK NICHOLSON'S RETIREMENT

“You want the truth ? Well you can’t handle the truth”. If you are familiar with this sentence surely you know the actor that said this line, yes it is Jack Nicholson. One of the most respected yet talented actor of in the history of American film industry.

Widely known for his roles in many famous movies such as The Shining, Batman, A Few Good Men, One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, Jack Nicholson usually portrays a rather complex, dark, a bit crazy character, take an example when he played Jack Torrance in the Shining. He played a role of a loving father turned psychopath. I believe his acting  made this movie one of the greatest horror movie of all time, this is only a simple example of his magnificent acting.

Since 2010 Jack has never been featured on a new movie his latest one was acting in a comedy drama “How Do You Know”. Reports said that he have been retired from the film industry due to memory loss. The 78 year old actor have also announced his retirement but still want to remain as a public figure. Alzheimer disease was reported to be one of his biggest reason to stop acting. Although retired Jack Nicholson have won many awards from Tony Awards to Oscars, his legacy will always live on.

CHARLIE HEBDO INCIDENT: An Effect of the Freddom Of Speech

The Charlie Hebdo incident that occurred recently surely have shocked the world , the killings were very gruesome and the insults against various communities(Christians,Muslims,Jewish)already become one of the most horrible tragedy in Paris and of course the world. Many aspects have been brought up to discussion when we talked about Charlie Hebdon, what  I’m going to put out is the term “freedom of speech” which to me is a very delicate matter.

Charlie Hebdo as we know have portrayed many individuals that represents various communities including Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi the leader of ISIS. Personally I think the drawings are very controversial, Charlie Hebdo to me have abused the system,  freedom of speech should not be mistreated and become a shield when an institution or even a person provoke another groups  or individual. Freedom of speech is a symbol of our rights and a way to communicate better and not as a connection breaker.  What the paper did have crossed the line surely, they have used the freedom of speech to insult another person’s belief it’s very obvious that not everybody can accept their actions not everybody in this wide world have the some toleration limit. The people who work over there at Charlie Hebdo should realize that, why do they keep doing that? look at the result people died over a cartoon sounds very ridiculous also absurd but of course it can be prevented. We cannot change or alter the past the tragedy is very fortunate, what have happened over at Paris can just be another lesson for all of us in the future to choose our words carefully, think twice about our actions,once again freedom of speech have limits.

What about the killings? Is it really necessary or is it just an excuse to terrorize others in the name of God.  The terrorists who killed people over at Charlie Hebdon should be brought to justice my opinion is the killings are very unnecesary and overated. A censorship or even a banning to the paper or just maybe  a discussion between  Charlie Hebdo’s side and the offended communities should be enough. What those terrorists did was not defending their religion and their prophet what they did was more than enough to make people all over the world judge and questioned Islam. It’s in the eye of the world Islam have become a factory for violence, hatred, and other bad things. Many people can misjudge Islam with the terrorists , people tend to think the actions of a certain individuals defines his/her groups and communities. This situation like it or not happened in various situation many Muslims are going to have a hard time or already had hard time because of this. Social discrimination is a result too, this is why this extremists need to learn they have become a danger to the thing they hold dear and protect and certain  dialogues , seminars needs to be done to open people’s eyes so we can make a difference between terrorists and Muslim.

In conclusion my thoughts about these are simple which are to think before you do and to process our way of thinking before we judge others. Let us learn from Charlie Hebdo and be better in the future.

The Benefits of Medical Marijuana

One of marijuana’s most famous positive effect is for HIV/AIDS patients, Chemotherapy patients, also many forms of cancer patients. Studies and research done by FDA and American Cancer Society both agree that ingredients in marijuana or known as cannabinoids is able to relieve nausea, vomiting, increases appetite for chemotherapy patients (also AIDS patients) and has anti-bacterial properties which can fight tumor growth. (Smith, 2012) Another benefits from marijuana is, a medicine  for glaucoma patients.  What is Glaucoma? In short Glaucoma is a disease that damage optic nerve system which can lead to blindness.(http://www.glaucoma.org) On a study in 1975 researchers also found out the effects of marijuana can help glaucoma patients, the cannabinoids help reduce the damaged optic nerves. (Smith,2012) But still new studies needs to be done since it has been over 25 years since the last study. Third benefits from using or consuming marijuana as a medicine is for people that are having Multiple Sclerosis. This disease can affect patient’s brain, spinal cord, and the optic nerves in the eyes. It can harm visions even simple daily activities this disease also unique because some sufferers might need some treatment and others don’t. (www.webmd.com) And cannabis is actually helping by reducing pain on the muscle area such as hands or feet so people with MS can have a relaxed feeling, also the chemical inside marijuana can treat muscle spasms. but of course on a low and proper dosage. (Welsh, 2014).

From all three examples above marijuana’s health benefits do exist, researchers are able to conduct proper studies that can finally determine what this drug capable of. And another good news is these three benefits are not the only positive effect of marijuana, cannabinoids have many more effects and those things are, marijuana helps positive effect on treatment for Epilepsy, it can also help treat Alzheimer’s disease by preventing growth of an enzyme which cause the disease in the first place, it can treat Arthritis, also Hepatitis C, even morning sickness. (Smith,2012)

Recent Study in Israel showed that smoking marijuana or consuming marijuana helped reduce tremors, and helped people with Parkinson’s disease to get more sleep also improving the motor skills.(Welsh,2014) Dr. Tod Mikuriya, a former national administrator of the U.S. government’s research program, had this to say“After dealing with about 10,000 patents in the last 15 years, I’d say about 200 different medical conditions respond favorably to cannabis”. Now we know from the late doctor,  marijuana do contributes in helping people with certain dangerous diseases, until now researcher keep on testing this drug for its many benefits.

The Dark Knight (2008)starting Christian Bale, Heath Ledger, Michael Caine, Aaron Eckhart,Morgan Freeman, Maggie Gyllenhaal was another sequel from Christopher Nolan’s Batman Begins in 2005. A movie that was based on DC’s famous superhero Batman.The Dark Knight was released on July 14th 2008 with the world premiere in New York City.  It is indeed one of the most successful Batman movie franchise.

Aside from the thrilling story with many plot twists surely our attention were held by the amazing casts of this movie from the great Michael Caine to the late Heath Ledger all of those main casts were not inexperienced actors and actress. But one name we will never forget for his unforgettable performance in the movie, he is Heath Ledger.

Portraying the Joker who is one of Batman’s arch enemy he gave an amazing performance that landed him Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor, the Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actor, Screen Actors Guild Award for Best Supporting Actor, and the BAFTA Award for Best Supporting Actor in a Supporting Role.
