I want intel processor 15 series. but I'm happy wth what I have right now. Alhamdullilah.


Random but TRUE:

A healthy person is the one who has a healthy stool. It must be long like a sausage and yellow like a banana.

Do not sit too long because it will increase the chances of getting colorectal cancer.

Malaysia has this bill where young girls at the age of 13 can get free vaccination for HPV. (jealous. I want it too)

Parents can help their children to grow by 5-10cm taller by watching over their diets and encouraging them to exercise.

Geological factors influence the architecture of buildings in certain countries.
(We all know this) But do you know why there are strings of columns built at the ancient city in Egypt? This is because the stones that they used, are limestones. As we know that limestones are sedimentary rocks, they are strong when they are stacked ith each stones have the strata layers placed horizontally. Therefore they need a lot of columns to support the roof.








Another example will be Greece.. The ancient greek cities, they are rich in sculptures, long slender columns but their roof are more triangular shape or rectangle. These are possible because Greek countries are rich with marbles which are metarmophic rocks, stronger rocks than sedimentary rocks.


















NOW... in Romania. The romans building are more dome-like shape. they afford the domes for their roof and arcs entrance because of..... CONCRETE. They obtain the concrete from the ash from volcanoes.















We all knew that Roman was once a greatest empire. BUt why the once majestic empire was swept away from the Earth.... Many scientists came up with theories. but the most common sense theory was from Dr Iain Stewart. He believed that the upper class Romans slowly diminished from the Earth's surface because of Lead poisoning. This is because they enjoyed wine and food so much. And the wine and food were kept ad cooked on pots and pans that contains lead . which was meant to help the pots ad pans fom leaking during those time.
