Care for our birds
This plant is killing songbirds across North America! If you have one or see one with berries, cut off the berries and compost them. Nandina domestica (heavenly bamboo) is from China and so our birds mistake it for a food source. The seeds contain a ton of cyanide and cause a swift and extremely painful death. I cut the berries off my neighbours yesterday, but he said he has already found a few dead birds. Such a simple thing could save hundreds of lives. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3005831/

WHO – 65 is still young!
The World Health Organisation (WHO) had declared that 65 years of ages is still considered young.
Before, based on the Friendly Societies Act (1875) in Britain, old was defined by age of 50. The UN has actually not adopted a standard requirement however recently 60 years of ages was referred as the border age to the word ‘old’. However, the health organisation had done new research just recently, inning accordance with average health quality and life span, and defined a new requirement that divides human age as follows:
– 0-17 years of ages: underage
– 18-65 years of ages: youth/young individuals
– 66-79 years old: middle-aged
– 80-99 years old: elderly/senior
– 100+ years of ages: long-lived senior
