//////////////150 MINS OF BRISK WALK /WEEK
The amount of exercise needed is pretty modest - 30 minutes of brisk walking or cycling five days a week. The study was published online on July 18, 2012 issue in The Lancet.

///////////////NAGEL=that philosophy arises naturally out of the human condition. People start asking philosophical questions from an early age. And there is a history of over 2,000 years of people discussing these questions – thinking critically about how we should live, what the nature of reality is, what consciousness is.

To play a game is to engage in activity directed towards bringing about a specific state of affairs, using only means permitted by rules, where the rules prohibit more efficient in favor of less efficient means, and where such rules are accepted just because they make possible such activity…playing a game is the voluntary attempt to overcome unnecessary obstacles.”
/////////////philosophy is any human enterprise that involves critical thought about basic questions, like how we should live, what is the nature of reality and so on.

///////////////People feel safer with the established order in the face of potential change. That's partly why people buy the same things they bought before, return to the same restaurants and keep espousing the same opinions.
This has been called the 'system justification bias' and it has some paradoxical effects (research is described in Jost et al., 2004):
