There were many suspects in the Jack the Ripper murders over the years. What are the evidences that support the claim that James Kelly was Jack the Ripper? If you are rival detective, how do you eliminate all the evidence that you’re identified in the documentary?



              Finding Jack the Ripper is not easy even the suspects for this serial murder were over a hundred. In a documentary named Jack the Ripper in America, a retired detective, Ed Norris claimed that James Kelly was Jack the Ripper and he was responsible to other murders of prostitutes in United States of America (USA). Ed Norris found some evidences of the case that lead to his conviction about James Kelly was the Ripper.


           The first evidence is James Kelly killed his wife by stabbing her in the neck after he accused his wife had another man. This evidence shows that Kelly had an experienced in murdering however, he was doing it when he was angry towards his wife unfaithfulness. When people are angry, they may lose control and do anything that can release their angriness and this is different with the other Ripper’s victims where they were killed randomly.


            Second, James Kelly was escaped from Broadmoor Asylum by using a key that he made by himself in early 1888 exactly the year when the killing happened. On the contrary, there is no evidence show that James Kelly was in Whitechapel at the time of the murder happened because police could not find him until 40 years after he escaped.

              Third, other evidence that Ed Norris found is he worked as a furniture upholsterer that had ability in using a knife. Nevertheless, the method of Jack the Ripper killing is he cut the victims’ throat and took out the organs of the victims. It shows that the Ripper had knowledge about human body or anatomical knowledge as he knew the location of human’s organs and James Kelly did not have that.


           Fourth, the next evidence is James Kelly’s psychological result matched with the Ripper’s attitude as a doctor decided that Kelly was insane that could lead to murdering. Granted that, insane people cannot murder their victim without leaving any proof and cannot plan the place and time of the murder strategically since most of them are doing it spontaneously. It is different with Jack the Ripper’s method of killing.

                  Last but not least, the fifth evidence is James Kelly’s photo is the same with Jack the Ripper’s sketch when he was 40 years old younger than the age when the photo was taken. Conversely, this evidence is an assumption made by Ed Norris as it is not strong enough to proof that Kelly is the Ripper. No one can convince and had witnessed that the Ripper’s sketch is 100% correct or the young face of James Kelly is accurate.


              As conclusion, Jack the Ripper remains unknown until today no matter how hard people trying to find him by using technology or personal detectives. It is because Jack the Ripper was an intelligent murderer who could do his work without leaving any evidence on his victims’ body.


Distinguish between facts and fictions that are portrayed in the movie and which aspect of the plot that is accurate to the historical fact in the Jack the Ripper murders and which aspect of the plot that is based on the filmmaker’s own imagination.



               Jack the Ripper has been a legend until today as the case and the culprit had not been solved over the years. The influential of the murder can be seen as a movie has been made to portray the incident that happened on 19th century. However, From Hell has been criticized by many people as it is believed that some of the movie plots are based on the historical facts and some of them are based on the filmmaker’s imagination.


              First, the plot in the movie that is based on historical facts of Jack the Ripper is the way how some victims were murdered and the bodies’ position. The second victims in the movie who is believed as Mary Ann Nichols was killed by two cuts on her throat and her lower part abdomen was ripped open as in 22:28. The third victim who was Annie Chapman also was killed with the same way as the historical facts and the same as Mary Ann Nichols. The fourth victims who is Elizabeth Stride was killed by one clear-cut incision and this movie shows that Jack the Ripper did not finish his work as someone was coming and it is based on the historical facts in 01:20:18. The last victim who is Mary Kelly also had been murdered the same way as the historical facts because her heart was missing and this movie shows that Jack the Ripper has taken out her heart in 01:40:13.

             Second, the aspect of plot that is the same as the historical facts is in 01:19:35 where someone walked on the street and saw Elizabeth Stride with two men and one of the men shouted at the witness “What are you looking at?” The next plot is an officer described Mary Kelly’s body as “She’s in pieces” in 01:41:49.


              The other plot that is based on the historical facts is From Hell letter where the letter came with small box that contained a preserved kidney. The writer claimed that he fried and ate half of the kidney in 01:12:00. The next plot that is based on historical facts is in 1:24:58 when Sir Charles Warren ordered Inspector Fred Abberline to wash away some writings on the wall about Jews that might write by the murder. The order by Sir Charles Warren was because he afraid that the writings on the wall could cause a riot among the citizen.


             The last plot that is based on historical facts is the place and the time where the victims’ bodies had been found and the example is in 01:23:40 where Kate Eddowes’s body had been found in Mitre Square.

             However, there are some plots in the movie that is made by the filmmaker’s imagination and the first is the way how Martha Tabram had been killed. The historical facts shows that Martha Tabram had been killed by 39 stab wounds and in the movie claimed that her throat had been cut as well as the other victims in 14:39. In addition, another different plot with the historical facts is all the five victims were friends and they knew each other. It is contrary with the facts which is they had no connection at all except there were all prostitutes.


           Furthermore, grapes that had been found near some victims’ bodies also one of the imaginations of the filmmaker as historical facts never exist so. Moreover, this movie also shows that Inspector Fred Abberline and Mary Kelly had an affair between them and the last victim was not Marry Kelly but her new roommate who was Ada in 01:44:05.

             Other than that, in the movie shows that Inspector Abberline was addicted to Opium and died just after Mary Kelly’s death. However, based on historical facts, Inspector Abberline had no records in taking any drug and he did not died after the murder of Marry Kelly because he died at the age of 86 in his house.


             In conclusion, there are some plots in this movie that do not based on the historical facts and this can confuse people who are interested with this crime.

State several evidence which support the ancient astronaut theory. Discuss whether you agree or disagree to the evidence that you have identified.


              The existence of alien has been an issue for a long time by most scientists in this world. In Ancient Aliens: The Evidence shows that the scientists and researchers have found several evidences that support ancient astronaut theory.


                The evidences that have been found in the Ancient Alien are related to aircraft, space ship and the gigantic building. The first evidence is at duration 02:25 where they have found a small wooden model that seems to be a bird and has the description there which is “I want to fly” in Egypt. The second evidence is at duration 09:27 where there are a dozen out of 100 are gold figuring like an insect and fish found at Colombia. Both of these evidences seem to be represented the aircraft and fire jet.


                The third evidence is occurred in Indian Sanskrit in duration 15:21 where there is an object named Vimana and the description of the object is same goes to a spaceship. Besides, at 23:46 they believed that ancient people were connected to each other as they believed that there is a Vimana airport at Mexico. Other than that, Joseph Bluemerk concludes at 30:40 that the flying carpet that had been said by King Solomon is a spaceship in The Kebra Nagast.


                The fourth evidence is where they do not have any idea how the ancient people managed to build gigantic building without living any sign of the machine that they used. Research has found that even by doing modern technology they still cannot replicate the gigantic buildings as what the ancient people did. The next evidence is in 1:05:48 is about the Manna machine which is a food source. Research found that the machine is radiation poisoning and very dangerous and it had to be cleaned once a week.


                Furthermore, the other evidence is when pyramid in Egypt actually provides energy to satellite or to other source in 1:17:30 and they also had wireless electricity in 1:21:42. In all the evidences found, some believe that Alien had come from the past and the miracle that had happened from the past was from them.

                In my opinion, I do not agree with all the evidences that lead to the existence of Alien and ancient astronaut theory. The answer is because alien is not the one who shaped our culture but the intelligence people in the past as there are many examples that we have already known. Gravity has been found, revealed and discovered by Aristotle, Galileo, Newton and Einstein without any help from alien and it is because they were intelligence. Alien never exist in the past, present and even in the future.

Based on the facts presented in this documentary are you convinced that fast food is the main cause of obesity in United States and around the world?



           
               United States of America (USA) becomes the fattest nation in the world. Nearly 100 million of Americans today are overweight or obese and that make over 60% of all USA adult. Obesity are currently the second leading preventable cause of death in the United States after overtake tobacco as the leading cause of death. Based on the evidences in Super Size Me, I think fast food is not the main cause of obesity because obesity is caused by the laziness and the mentality of people nowadays and the limited responsibilities of society.

               People today tend to have an easy lifestyle and depend too much on technology. The examples that we can see in this movie is when even in hypermarket, they are using a machine to move around rather than walking. As a result of this technology dependency behaviour, people attempt food that can be served immediately without any preparation and that is fast food. This is the main cause of obesity because they eat a lot of food that is unhealthy and using the technology instead of their own energy in doing daily activities.

               Other than that, the mentality of people nowadays is easy to be influenced by others. The example that we can see in this movie is when people easily are influenced by McDonald advertisement and approaching. People can make a choice whether to go to fast food restaurant or order for Big Size no matter how hard the fast food company trying to influence them therefore, it is not the fault of fast food regarding obesity problem. The problem occurs because of people choice since they are the one who choose to live with technology and unhealthy lifestyle.


               Besides, the other induce of obesity is the limited responsibility of USA government in diminishing the obesity problem. There is no precaution seems to be taken by the government or society as can be seen in the documentary where even in the hospital they have the fast food restaurant. It shows that the government does not intend to minimize the development of fast food and encourage the citizens to live healthily. This is also happened in school as can be seen in this documentary where most students are served with unhealthy food and it encourages them to live unhealthily. The society should consistent the menu in school with healthy and energetic food than can enhance the brain not the fat.


               As conclusion, fast food is not the main cause of obesity because the problem comes from the people themselves and the unawareness of society and government to this problem. Fast food companies are making money by selling the unhealthy food but it is the person's responsibility to choose to live healthily and the society responsibility to decrease the unhealthy lifestyle approaching.
