Temporarily Dying Infuses Life
Posted in News on 18 January 2008

Temporarily Dying

Right on the heels of my words, I would like to say it loud that this seemingly concept to many is been practiced in Korea. Most of you would agree with me when I say that our life is nothing but synonymous to stress. And thus our hunt for a soothing moment begins. But if you want a quick-fix solution then visit Korea now. The unique exercise organized by the Korea Life Consulting Co. makes you rejuvenate your life temporarily dying. To be direct, at a drop of $325, you can feel your funeral experience while being alive.
It begins by laying clients inside a coffin with a tight-lid followed by a voluminous spray of dirt on the face of the coffin. The lights are switched off and soothing funeral music is on. There you get good 15-minutes to spend with your own self or a full-on panic attack. After this, the coffin is opened up and person comes out taking this moment as his “rebirth.”
This process is popularly known as “well-dying”, a gloomy drift energized toward cheering Koreans to lead happy and improved lives. The trial is a proven success as it has boosted the efficiency of many employees deputed in certain factories. As a result of this many companies are interested wanting their employees to undergo this process. No one can mar this innovative but weird way of increasing productivity. Around 50,000 people have experienced this since this concept turned reality in 2004. This is a good way to ‘start over.’

Hungarian scientists say yes! The question demands a deserving amount of attention as much as you love your pets. So please don’t cheat! Scientists based in Hungary are engaged working on software that will analyze dogs’ growl to let their owners have a better understanding of what their dear friend is feeling.

The scientist believes that a commercial application or a monitored device can help strengthen dog-human communiqué.

The computer accurately predicted the emotional response of the dogs by reading their barks and counted 40% of the cases from given 43% of the cases were judged correctly. If this happens, it would need a great amount of celebration for efforts invested in this cause.
