Normally, when a person is young, healthy, and earn desired income, s/he feels proud of life and wish to live forever.  Unluckily, aging is a barrier to all of them because it affects our physical, mental, and social life negatively. Frankly, I have met and realized the struggle of old people that is why I wish to fight aging. For examples, Mr.  John has lost her wife 10 years ago. He is 85 and always alone, and he does not like approaching others. Also, Dr.  Jonathan is 90, he cannot manage to stand for even 5 minutes. Ms.  Percaline is 80.

Healthcare trends are different inclinations that influence various positive or negative changes in health settings.  For instance, the current young generation has many and different expectations to access effective and advanced healthcare services using technologies with less or no trips to see doctors (Elsevier, 2016).

History of Car Free Day in the Developed Cities Car Free Day in Bogota city of Colombia The Car Free Day has been so popular since the 1970s in Bogota city of Colombia, so Los Angeles became next due to its solid traffic reputation. Normally, people used to complain of long travels, air pollution, common traffic collisions and delays. Later, Richard McKinnon proposed closing off a portion of the city to vehicles for a few hours one Sunday to lessen vehicle traffic and encourage biking and walking to reduce the risks. His idea is based on the success of many other cities where officials have incorporated car-free days to promote the improvement of mass transit, biking and walking, and the development of communities where jobs are closer to home and where shopping is within walking distance.

Measuring Rote Against Eidetic Memorization Techniques Researcher: Patrick Mahirwe Date: 2/1/2017 Abstract  This report explains the memorization techniques by the experiment. It aims to provide more details about the difference between rote and eidetic memorization techniques. To conduct the experiment, I had four participants who formed two groups and there were ten words to use in this research. Each participant had to recall the words from ten words they were assigned to memorize. I wanted to know which memorization technique is effective, for I divided participants into two groups; two participants in Group One and other remaining two participants in Group Two. Which means that the first two participants would memorize words by using rote and other remaining two participants would memorize words by eidetic. The results from my experiment have shown that both groups had different ability to memorize information, based on the memorizing techniques they have used.  I have
