summary of the novel: City of bones ☠☠

Fifteen-year-old Clary Fray is partying hard at the Pandemonium Club with her best friend, Simon.She follows some awful looking people, and discovers that they're demon hunters when they kill a demon in front of her, which dissolves into the floor. Yuck.
Back at home, her mother is acting all cryptic and over-protective, packing up their stuff to move away from New York City and into the country home of her best friend, Luke. Clary isn't pleased, and leaves the apartment to hang out with Simon. She finds him at a poetry reading, where she also runs into Jace, one of the demon hunters (called Shadowhunters or Nephilim). And then she receives a scary phone call from her mother that sounds like she's being attacked.Back at the apartment, Clary finds the place deserted. Except, that is, for the giant, slobbering, poisonous demon that bites her. She kills the demon by herself, but not before she's bitten and passes out. Poisoned, Clary is carried to the Institute by Jace, who introduces her to a few other Shadowhunters. They seek cover in the apartment of Madame Dorothea, a hacky looking psychic who has ties to the Nephilim. Clary realizes that her mother must have hidden the Mortal Cup, a magical artifact that is pretty much the most important thing ever, inside a painting—the hand-painted Tarot deck she made for Madame Dorothea.So they go back to the apartment! Clary cleverly retrieves the cup, but then an evil demon, Abbadon, rushes through the Portal, possesses Madame Dorothea, and tries to kill Clary and Co. They manage to escape and return to the Institute, where Hodge, Jace's tutor, betrays them by handing over the Cup and an unconscious Jace to Valentine, the Big Bad, whom he had been working with all along.Gasp! Hodge flees, pursued by Clary. They confront each other in an alleyway, and Hodge attacks her. She's saved by Luke, who is a werewolf. Double gasp! Inside Valentine's castle, which is under a spell that makes it look like a crumbling mental hospital, Clary finds her mother, who is unconscious and chained up.Then Jace shows up and tells Clary that Valentine is his father. Triple gasp! Which means that Clary and Jace are brother and sister. Okay, we're hyperventilating now. Clary manages to convince Jace that even though Valentine is his father, he's still a murderous, lying buttface. Valentine escapes through a Portal with the Cup, smashing the Portal behind him. Inside Valentine's castle, which is under a spell that makes it look like a crumbling mental hospital, Clary finds her mother, who is unconscious and chained up.Then Jace shows up and tells Clary that Valentine is his father.

Most dangerous drug in the world: Devil's Breath. 💉💊

The Devil's Breath's real name is "scopolamine" and is made using extracts from a tree known popularly as the "borrachero" tree which is common in the South American country of Colombia and which loosely translates to the "get-you-drunk" tree. The seeds, contain a chemical similar to scopolamine called 'Burandanga". flowers and pollen of the tree are known to possess hallucinogenic qualities when consumed or inhaled but how effective, or widespread its usage is, is a point of contention. The seeds, when powdered and extracted via a chemical process, Borrachero has been used for hundreds of years by native South Americans in spiritual rituals. The compound is said to lead to hallucinations, frightening images, and a lack of free will. 
A hazardous drug that eliminates free will and can wipe the memory of its victims is currently being dealt on the streets of Colombia. 
Scopolamine often blown into faces of victims or added to drinks within minutes, victims are like 'zombies' - coherent, but with no free will. Some victims have even reported emptying bank accounts to robbers or helping them pillage own house. It blocks your free will, wipe your memory and can even kill you if taken in more amount. This is Devil's breath in normal flower form.

This is just a picture of the flower, they might seem beautiful to some of you guys, but it can more likely change you into a flesh eating zombie if inhaled in large amount.
Its common side effects are dry mouth, blurry vision, dizziness, flushing, and a feeling of light headedness and coma. In severe cases, users may even pose the risk of death.In addition to the side effects referenced above, a number of potentially serious side effects can be linked to use of Devils Breath. These effects include urination issues, confusion, rapid or irregular heartbeat, extreme dry mouth, speaking troubles, disorientation, drastic changes in mood or thought patterns, hallucinations and extreme drowsiness.An allergic reaction is often viewed as an additional serious side effect of Devils Breath use. Common signs associated with a Scopolamine allergic reaction include tightness in the chest area, breathing issues, skin rashes, itchiness, hives, and swelling throughout the face. 
These are some real things which happens to your body...

What is freedom? Are we free?


What does true freedom look like?  Does it look like a voter’s ballot or someone walking out of prison?  Is it seen in being able to buy anything I want or in the fact that I don’t owe a thing to anyone?  Of course, it’s crucial to define what we mean by freedom so that we know what we’re looking for, what we’re hoping to attain. 
Say that a child runs outside and climbs a tree because he wants to get away and be free.  In his exuberant effort to be free, the boy wanders out onto a tree limb, turns around, and begins severing the last connection he has with the world — the limb.  Having sawed through the limb, the boy quickly realizes that he not only failed in achieving his goal of complete freedom, but discovers that what he was seeking wasn’t true freedom at all.  In his effort to achieve freedom, the boy finds himself in a worse situation then before — broken limbs and all! or some another examples; the burglar cannot have the freedom to steal, the thug cannot have the freedom to mug, and the businessman cannot have the freedom to excessively pollute and pay no taxes.
Well there is much to disuse about this topic, we will just start from knowing what actually is freedom? Freedom is the power or right to act, speak, or think as one wants without hindrance or restraint, and the absence of a despotic government. freedom is self-determinance; it is the condition of minimal constraint. Okay you might have got the idea what actually is freedom but do you think you are free? Are you allowed to make your own decisions? Are you not be bound of anyone?(as a child then of your parents) Is there human rights? Women empowerment? Laws made under religious sayings? 
All I can say is maybe, or might, and so do you, cause your not sure about it. There isn't only one kind of freedom, there are many, and to be completely free means to be obeying those laws and not feel cool to disobey them, if there is only one kind of freedom in a society/country then, there citizens might not be obeying them. Securing freedom from fear and freedom from want is very likely to entail some collective, organized action. That kind of activity is often carried out most effectively and efficiently (although, admittedly, not perfectly) by the government. If we want to live in a society where freedoms are protected and where the opportunity to exercise freedom is assured, we have to rely on some form of governance. So far, liberal representative democracy seems to do the best job of it. 
The main types of freedom are;
Freedom of the press prohibits the government from interfering with the printing and distribution of information or opinions. It can be limited by libel and copyright laws, and it doesn’t include the act of news gathering.
Freedom of expression includes freedom of speech, of the press, of association, of assembly and petition. This freedom doesn’t extend to expression that defames, causes panic, creates fighting words, incites people to crime, creates sedition, or is obscene.
Freedom of speech is the right of people to express their opinions publicly without governmental interference. The right doesn’t extend to hate speech, advertising, child pornography, and a few other instances.  
Freedom of Religion is the freedom of an individual or community, in public or private, to manifest religion or belief in teaching, practice, worship, and observance. This right extends to any religious belief, but not in the practice of all religious activities (for example, ones that involve breaking other laws).
Freedom of Assembly, sometimes used interchangeably with the freedom of association, is the individual right to come together and collectively express, promote, pursue and defend common interests. The right to freedom of association is recognized as a human right, a political freedom and a civil liberty. This freedom can be limited by laws that protect public safety.
There is nothing mysterious about the foundations of a healthy and strong democracy. The basic things expected by our people of their political and economic systems are simple. They are:
  • Equality of opportunity for youth and for others.
  • Jobs for those who can work.
  • Security for those who need it.
  • The ending of special privilege for the few.
  • The preservation of civil liberties for all.
  • The enjoyment of the fruits of scientific progress in a wider and constantly rising standard of living.
There are always two sides of a coin as do freedom have, there are two types of freedom; Internal(Inner) freedom and external(Outer) freedom
Internal freedom refers to the first and most basic type of freedom is embodied by the chap in jail, All normal human beings are born and remain free in the most important sense that they are forever and at every conscious moment freely-choosing beings. We can not escape this kind of freedom even if we try, for we must then freely choose among means of escape, and so on. Although External freedom refers to the normal and common freedoms expected in daily life, in most countries. It is something described as freedom from. because it implies immunity from undue interference by authority, especially by government. It is also sometimes called "negative freedom."
