Why Capital Punishment Still Exists
Capital punishment has been a cause for debate for many years, and people continue to disagree on the topic. Capital punishment may be a controversial subject, but it is one that must be addressed with today's violent society. The death penalty is believed to provide the necessary punishment and deterrent for criminals in many countries. The issue of capital punishment always comes with the problem of human rights which is a fundamental thing for a civilian. Can we really take away the criminal’s evil deed or crime by giving him another lethal blow? Below, the reasons why capital punishment should be abolished are as followed.
Firstly, from a religious point of view, capital punishment shall never be fair for a man. God says “Whosoever shed man’s blood, by man shall his blood be shed.” This means one cannot take away other’s life. It is quoted right from the book of Genesis saying the creation of the world and assuming God is the master and creator of the world, thus everyone should obey and listen. According to this viewpoint, death penalty should never exist because it simply violates the principles from God.
Secondly, death penalty originally with the intention to decrease the crime rate and to threaten back the criminals shows no difference after all. It is widely believed that the existence of capital punishment shall deter the rate of crime, but later on, it is proven that the punishment didn’t make any difference on the rating. Instead, people are still unaware of the importance of life. Since the mission of reducing the crime rate could not be carried out, then why should death penalty exist? To replace the capital punishment, we should have some alternatives for it, for instance, life imprisonment.
Thirdly, the possibility of executing an innocent man could be one of the main ammunitions for anti-death penalty movements. Many may doubt that under the sound juridical system, there won’t be any mistake on judging whether or not one is convicted. But, in fact, there are many people who were now proved to be mistakenly sentenced to death sand being wronged for such a long time throughout the history. In order to prevent wronged people being sentenced to death from happening some said that it is necessary to abolish the punishment to save those wronged and innocent men.
Although lots of evidence or confrontations have been made, there’s still refutation going against with this. Several countries practice death penalty, including China, Iraq, Iran, U.S.A., and Saudi Arabia. In the United States, twelve of the states do now allow death sentence. The twelve states are Michigan, Wisconsin, Maine, Minnesota, North Dakota, Hawaii, Alaska, Iowa, West Virginia, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Vermont. One major way the death penalty helps is that it could console a family if someone is murdered and the convicted criminal is put to death. A perfect example was Timothy Mc Veigh when he was put to death in 2001, which was the first execution by the government since 1963 (CNN.Com). Therefore, the death penalty is good because the inmates, who deserve to be killed, should be killed.
In summary, we have seen three major reasons why capital punishment should be abolished from above though coming along with a refutation. Nevertheless, the issue of capital punishment has been hotly debated for a long time since 18th century, which I assumed that it would continue to be controversial in no matter what country or religion. But, there is one thing we can be sure of is that if the punishment went against the human right, it should be removed at once so as to protect the basic right of a man.

Journal ING - My Dream Car II
Now my heart is a little bit itchy for my dream car has been revolved and redesigned!!! With these incredible features such as key-free system, touring head light and so on....smooth rumble at full speed, that is just amazing! As far as I know, one of the professors in Chung Hsin has this car but the previous edition, and he often pulls his car on the green avenue next to the Language Center, therefore, I would have chance to take a closer look at this car, but maybe I'll look a bit creepy if I spook at the car.
As you see no matter from my dream car I the Porsche Cayenne, or this one, those are all SUV car, four by four, and that's what I want rather than a sedan.
Journal ING - Before and After?
well, I've been watching MODTV (model TV show) for couple of months on iTune, and there I found that the tactics the makeup stylist applied on are incredible. Just take a look at the image of before and after, sometimes we can barely recognize the person because it was way too different. Therefore, the saying of makeup could change someone is true, and to tell the truth, most of the celebrities form Hollywoods are wearing a well-done artificial masque, for their beauties are simply from those makeup skills and works. But, I didn't assert that without makeup was good, the fact is How to use this well and don't go to far is the point. Furthermore, we have to have the recognition that makeup could harm your original skin which means it can never last long on your face for more than a half day or you might regret with this act.

Journal ING - My Dream Car I
Have you had something that you can't resist on? Porsche Cayenne is REALLY something that has long been my dream. I sometimes dream of its rumble voice, so smooth and agreeable. In, the film, the car was in dark red, but I prefer one in PURE BLACK which can impress you right away with its galantry. I don't know whether I could be a tough driver, but I gotta say that til now, I didn't drive at all after the launch of my driving licence. By the way, who's going to lend his car to a ROOKIE? Will you? I really wanna take a ride in it!!! The boy describes it with the word phenomenal, well, I don't think it's enough, perhaps INCREDIBLE. And I should ssay that shift handling and power drifting.....ohhhh my...Guess I'm a wacko for Cayenne.
Journal ING - Food Price Level's Outrage?
The world bank tried to announce the upcoming disaster which would affect more than 85 percent of people all over the world by a high level of food price. Right after the gasoline's outrage, food price is now getting wild and uncontrollable. For the poor, they can barely purchase the gas, but still they have to eat in order to survive, thus if the food price level keeps mounting, probably they will not be able to EAT someday cause they don't even have enough money for veg or meat. And not to mention that if they could grow some plants or veg themselves cause who's going to pay for the fertilizer ?

Journal ING - Why Airbus would be the victim under the downturn of US dollars?
Several years ago, we’ve been amazed by the splendid and luxury decoration inside the airplane manufactured by French company Airbus.
But later on in the end of 2007, the company seemed to face some serious financial problem concerning the deposit down payment. Though they got lots of purchase for their product A380 from Singapore airline or Mainland China Airline, the amount of the deposit was agreed to be paid in US dollar not in Euro. So, here comes the problem, due to the rapid growing of the price of gas and the downfall of US dollar, their interest increased right away, furthermore, the materials which they assigned for A380 are all bought by Euro. As a result, there came a shortage or so called deficit in their so far income.
In order to solve this problem, Airbus arranged to move their base from Toulouse, France to Mainland China to reduce some certain cost and to save their money back. On the other hand, this may bring Chinese people many job opportunities such as mechanics or pilots…etc.
Lots of accidents or you may say surprises have launched our economic base, still there are people who could make a right prediction, for instance, the one from Jim Rogers.
