Why,
for some, laughter is the best medicine By R. Morgan Griffin
Laughter Therapy: What Happens When We
Laugh?
We
change physiologically when we laugh. We stretch muscles throughout our face
and body, our pulse and blood pressure go up, and we breathe faster, sending
more oxygen to our tissues.
People who believe in the benefits of
laughter say it can be like a mild workout — and may offer some of the same advantages
as a workout.
“The effects
of laughter and exercise are very similar,” says Wilson. “Combining laughter
and movement, like waving your arms, is a great way to boost your heart rate.”
And laughter appears to burn calories, too.
Maciej Buchowski, a researcher from Vanderbilt University, conducted a small
study in which he measured the amount of calories expended in laughing. It
turned out that 10-15 minutes of laughter burned 50 calories.
Laughter’s Effects on the Body
Blood flow. Researchers at the University
of Maryland studied the effects on blood vessels when people were shown either
comedies or dramas. After the screening, the blood vessels of the group who
watched the comedy behaved normally — expanding and contracting easily. But the
blood vessels in people who watched the drama tended to tense up, restricting
blood flow.
Immune response. Increased stress is
associated with decreased immune system response, says Provine. Some studies
have shown that the ability to use humor may raise the level of
infection-fighting antibodies in the body and boost the levels of immune cells,
as well.
Relaxation and sleep. The focus on the benefits of laughter really began with Norman Cousin’s memoir, Anatomy of an Illness. Cousins, who was diagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis, a painful spine condition, found that a diet of comedies, like Marx Brothers films and episodes of Candid Camera, helped him feel better. He said that ten minutes of laughter allowed him two hours of pain-free sleep.

Weird Jobs That You Can Actually Make A Living At (jobprofiles.org)
1. Odor Tester
This one is pretty odd, but some chemist has to make sure that all of those deodorants and anti-perspirants are operating properly to keep their users free of funk
2. Pet Detective
Another one we might have missed if it weren't for a film or television show. Ace Ventura, pet detective, displayed just how important this job is, especially when Dan Marino is in trouble! Personally I would've gone with a missing ad in the paper, but these folks are sure to find that furry member of the family.
3. Snake Milker
snakeIf you ever get bitten by a poisonous snake you'll be grateful these people know how to work with animals. They are responsible for getting the venom out of snakes to make the anti-venom. Be honest, which one of you thought that snakes had actual milk glands?
4. Cow Hoof Trimmer
Just like horseshoes, cows need some hoof maintenance too. These fine animals can have poor milk production, lameness, and decreased fertility if not properly groomed. Try to imagine giving a cow a pedicure.
5. Chicken Sexer
Going through baby chicks and separating them according to sex. I hear this job is pretty easy, if you just play bad 80's music and set things up like a 5th grade dance, they separate themselves.
6. Cartoon People/Mascots
Remember when you went to Disneyworld for the first time when you were eight? You got to meet Mickey Mouse and Goofey! Well we all now know that those are real people in there and are aware of it, this is still a pretty weird job.
7. Dog Food Tester
Watch out guys, this gal is going to have some great breath in store for you. Just like any other meals, dog food needs to be inspected too. I suppose they can't use dogs to test the food so this profession requires a taste testing of such a delicious cuisine.
8. Whiskey Ambassador
whiskeyLet's face it, this is every over 21 year old's dream job. You would be responsible for choosing only the finest whiskeys and teaching your clients the proper way to taste and admire the different attributes which this delicious liquor can possess. Sign me up!
9. Dice Inspector
With one false move of a single die a person can lose quite a bit of money on those craps tables. The dice inspector checks for proportionality, specific angles, and blemishes. I guess if dice are not perfect they can't be the reason for you going broke in the casino.
Questions:
1. What do you think these odd jobs?
2. Would you get an unusual job with high salaries?
3. What would be your ideal job? Why?
4. How to make a good career choice?
How to get a well paying job?
6. In your opinion, what are the best paying jobs in Taiwan?
