Most  Christian denominations believe that the fall corrupted the entire  natural world, including human nature, causing people to be born into  original sin, a state from which they cannot attain eternal life without  the gracious intervention of God. When God created Adam and Eve, he  originally made them sinless, and he intended for them to remain that  way. But the eating of the forbidden fruit somehow transformed human  nature. Some Christians believe that our natural tendency to sin is  transmitted from generation to generation by male semen.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br></div><a href="http://afkra.blogspot.com/2012/10/5-weird-religious-beliefs.html#more">Read more »</a>

The line  between liking and obsessions is often unidentifiable by the obsessed  but others around them can tell when things go a little or a lot out of  control. A mere liking turns into an obsession when you throw your life  out of balance to follow something to a crazy extent. When you follow  something or do something you like but also keep a healthy balance in  life and keep following most of your regular routine things are under  control. However, the minute you start thinking about an activity,  something or someone day in day out, you skip meals, skip work and fall  sick but nothing seems to get your mind off it you, my friend, are  obsessed. We have heard of people who are obsessed with love, power, shoes,  shopping, getting thin, pets, celebrities, body art, collectibles etc.  But the obsessions we will share with you today are a little out of the  ordinary and mind-boggling. These are regular activities that have gone  out of bounds for some very regular people.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b> </b></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b></b><br></div><a href="http://afkra.blogspot.com/2012/10/5-craziest-obsessions.html#more">Read more »</a>

She was born to an scholarly and prosperous  family in Pradesh in India 1948. Her reincarnation came in to scene when  she was only three years old, while travelling with her father past the  town of Katni, more than 100 miles from her home. The girl indicated and  asked the driver to take a turn down the road to “HER HOUSE”. She  further suggested that they could get a better cup of tea there than  they could on road. Her father went to that very house indicated by the  young girl and found all the facts stated by her to be true.

Containing three natural sugars - sucrose, fructose and  glucose combined with fiber, a banana gives an instant, sustained and substantial boost of energy. Research has proven that just two bananas provide enough energy for a strenuous 90-minute workout. No wonder the banana is the number one fruit with the world's leading athletes. But energy isn't the only way a banana can help us keep fit. It can also help overcome or prevent a substantial number of illnesses and conditions, making it a must to add to our daily diet.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"><br></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><b><span style="font-family: Arial;"></span></b></div><a href="http://afkra.blogspot.com/2012/10/little-known-facts-about-bananas.html#more">Read more »</a>

Researchers examining the blood levels of more than 1,000 Finnish men ages 46 to 65, found that those whose blood contained the highest levels of lycopene had 55 percent less chance of suffering a stroke. Those results, published in the October 8 issue of the journal <i>Neurology</i>, held true even after adjusting for the men’s age, health and other risk factors such as smoking and obesity. Because stroke is the third leading cause of death in this country, the fact that simply adding more tomatoes to your diet can add years to their life is big news for men in their middle years.

Some creatures use the camouflage techniques as a hunting and defense mechanism, others show everything they have -  like transparent animals. Despite of what we are inclined to think, transparent and translucent animals live also on the ground, not only in the abyss of the ocean and we have visual proof of it.

Coughing  among pilots and fears that contaminants were leaking into their  breathing apparatus led the experts to suspect flaws in the  oxygen-supply system of the F-22 Raptor, especially in the extreme  high-altitude conditions in which the $190 million aircraft is without  equal. They formed a working group a decade ago to examine the problem,  creating an informal but unique brain trust. Internal  documents and emails obtained by The Associated Press show they  proposed a range of solutions by 2005, including adjustments to the flow  of oxygen into pilot's masks. But that key recommendation was rejected  by military officials reluctant to add costs to a program that was  already well over budget.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br></div><a href="http://afkra.blogspot.com/2012/10/ap-impact-air-force-insiders-foresaw-f.html#more">Read more »</a>
