Students are notorious for having bad eating habits. Recently the Guardian newspaper asked one student to record what he ate over a three day period, and then asked a nutritionist to comment. Day one
10am Can of mango juice, Nutri-Grain (cereal) bar. 1pm Steak, chips, cauliflower. Twix* and water. 4pm Large bowl of Crunchy Nut Cornflakes (cereal) with milk.
8pm Two cans of mango juice, three bacon sandwiches (two rashers in each, no butter). 11pm Milky Way*. Day two 10am Crunchy Nut Cornflakes with milk. 1pm Water, Galaxy Ripple*, chicken sandwich, packet of McCoys crisps. 7pm Three cheese toasties, bowl of Crunchy Nut Cornflakes. Day three
10am One Danish pastry, two chocolate croissants, bowl of Raisin Wheats (cereal). 2pm Burger and chips, Diet Coke. 7pm Spaghetti bolognese, ice cream. *Twix, Milky Way and Galaxy Ripple are all brands of chocolate bar. What the nutritionist said What you eat has a direct impact on your health. According to The Guardian’s nutritionist this student’s diet is lacking in unrefined carbohydrates such as wholemeal bread and wholegrain cereals which can help reduce the risk of heart disease and certain cancers. However, the nutritionist did say that it was good that the student’s diet actually included breakfast. This can help concentration and so could be useful for early lectures and seminars! The student wasn’t so good about including fruit and vegetables in his diet though – nothing apart from mango juice and cauliflower on day one. Recommendations are for five portions* of fruit and vegetables each day. The chocolate, fast food and crisps that the student eats might also have an impact on long-term health – instead of snacking on chocolate, the nutritionist suggested the student should carry either fresh or dried fruit as a snack.

Japan WW2 Soldier Who Refused to Surrender Dies
A Japanese soldier who refused to surrender after World War Two ended and spent 29 years in the jungle has died aged 91 in Tokyo. Hiroo Onoda remained in the jungle on Lubang Island near Luzon, in the Philippines, until 1974 because he did not believe that the war had ended. He was finally persuaded to emerge after his ageing former commanding officer was flown in to see him. Onoda was greeted as a hero on his return to Japan.
The young soldier had orders not to surrender - a command he obeyed for nearly three decades. “I became an officer and I received an order. If I could not carry it out, I would feel shame. I am very competitive”, he said. Three other soldiers were with him at the end of the war. One emerged from the jungle in 1950 and the other two died.
Mr Onoda ignored several attempts to get him to surrender. He later said that he dismissed search parties sent to him, and leaflets dropped by Japan, because there was always something suspicious, so he never believed that the war had really ended. Though Onoda had been officially declared dead in December 1959, search parties were sent out in 1972, when the last person from his group was killed by local police, but they did not find him. Onoda was now alone.
On February 20, 1974, a Japanese man, Norio Suzuki, found Onoda after four days of searching. They became friends, but Onoda still refused to surrender, saying that he was waiting for orders from a superior officer. Suzuki returned to Japan with photographs of himself and Onoda as proof of their encounter, and the Japanese government located Onoda’s commanding officer, Major Yoshimi Taniguchi. He flew to Lubang where on March 9, 1974, he finally met with Onoda and rescinded his original orders in person.
The Philippine government granted him a pardon, although many in Lubang never forgave him for killing 30 people during his campaign on the island. The news media reported on this and other misgivings, but at the same time welcomed his return home.
