"For Scripture says, "Do not muzzle an ox while it is treading out the grain," and "The worker deserves his wages.""
Lately, much has been made of raising the Minimum Wage, which does nothing more than establish a minimum standard.
But who cares about minimums?
We should strive to exceed!
Some well-known, publicly-traded, highly profitable firms, however, revel in greed, and wallow in the slop, when they can do far better for the employees who operate their businesses.
The question is often asked "why pay unskilled workers $10 or even more per hour?"
It's a valid question, and deserves a genuinely thoughtful response.
So, let's pose that question to BIG OIL COMPANIES in Williston, North Dakota, where…
"oilfield companies pay unskilled 19 year-olds $80,000 a year."

Williston, North Dakota, has the nation's highest rents. Thanks to the fracking boom, a basic apartment in Williston costs more than something similar in New York or San Francisco. And it comes with a lot fewer amenities.

Things like this – Cat LOL videos, stories of animals having friendships, and other similarly expressive photos & stories (such as the depressed goat which was separated from, then was reunited with it's longtime donkey companion) – are quite fascinating.
The reason why should be self-evident. Which is, that we find them humorous or entertaining because we ascribe human traits to animals.

Today marks the feast day celebrating the life of Athanasius – Saint, Doctor of the Church, Father of Orthodoxy, Defender of the Faith and "Father of The Canon" – who is highly respected not only within the Catholic Church, but in all of Christendom not just because he defended orthodox Christianity (then in its infancy) against what is described as the greatest greatest crisis of faith ever to befall the Church, the Arian Heresy, but because in the process, he was also the first to effectively elucidate the nature of the Trinity. "Athanasius contra mundum" – Latin, meaning "Athanasius against the world" – was the hallmark phrase noting his dedication to Apostolic tradition during the First Council of Nicaea.
When I converted, I took two patrons: First, Saint Athanasius the Great, and Second, John Henry Newman (now Blessed John Henry Newman).
{NOTE: The tradition of taking a saint's name in baptism began in Germany and France during the Middle Ages. The custom spread throughout the church, with the exception of Ireland until after the Norman invasion in 1066 (11th century), were at first, it was considered an irreverence. However, a baptismal saint becomes a special and personal patron, protecting the person who bears his or her name. It was expected that the baptized eventually learn the story of their patron saints, model themselves after them, and seek their intercession for guidance and protection. Taking a particular saint as a patron and model of one's own personal faith might seem somewhat out of character for modern believers, because the saints lived in different times. However, their lives continue to testify that a a baptized person can walk with the mystery of God and thrive in faith. Their lives tell how the Good News of the Gospel can be lived in a practical way. This doesn't mean that people of today should copy saints in some external way, but rather, that the saints' lives can be a stimulus and source of inspiration toward one's personal efforts to follow the way of Jesus in our own time, situations and culture.}
Simply put, Arianism taught that Jesus was created "a son of God" and therefore was not fully divine, but only partially. And as it seems today, increasingly, Arianism had become more a political ideology, rather than a religious movement. At the time, Theology was a topic which most deeply engaged men's thoughts, and the Arian controversy interested all classes of people. Indeed, the heretical propositions of Arianism made rapid inroads into popular thinking because they were publicized in the form of songs set to popular tunes, were chanted in forums, and carried by sailors from port to port.
Complicating matters was that simultaneously Read the rest of this entry »

Peace be with you, Papa, and bless your for your honesty by acknowledging that "…both strength of mind and body are necessary, strength which in the last few months has deteriorated in me to the extent that I have had to recognize my incapacity to adequately fulfill the ministry entrusted to me."
May your successor be more than four times as strong as you, ten times as wise, a hundredfold more personable than John Paul II.
Pope Benedict XVI announced he will resign at end of month:
"I declare that I renounce the ministry of Bishop of Rome, Successor of Saint Peter, entrusted to me by the Cardinals on 19 April 2005, in such a way, that as from 28 February 2013, at 20:00 hours, the See of Rome, the See of Saint Peter, will be vacant and a Conclave to elect the new Supreme Pontiff will have to be convoked by those whose competence it is."
Pope Benedict XVI on Monday said he plans on resigning the papal office on February 28th. Below please find his announcement.

The things we continue to learn about the explicit wickedness and evil of that era continues to plague the South, and the nation at large… particularly those who pander to it in the Republican party. And GOP party officials wonder why they continue to lose elections. Perhaps they should get a clue.
FIFTY years ago, Birmingham, Ala., provided the enduring iconography of the civil rights era, testing the mettle of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. so dramatically that he was awarded the 1964 Nobel Peace Prize.
During his protest there in May 1963, the biblical spectacle of black children facing down Public Safety Commissioner Eugene (Bull) Connor's fire hoses and police dogs set the stage for King's Sermon on the Mount some four months later at the Lincoln Memorial. And the civil rights movement's "Year of Birmingham" passed into history as an epic narrative of good versus evil.
Our understanding of the "good" has expanded beyond the lone-dreamer theory to embrace other activists, like King's partner in Birmingham, the Rev. Fred Shuttlesworth. Yet the evil segregationist archetype is fixed in the popular mind as the villainous housewife of "The Help" or the cretinous mob of "Django Unchained" — nobody we'd ever know, or certainly ever be.
But the disquieting reality is that the conflict was between not good and evil, but good and normal. The brute racism that today seems like mass social insanity was a "way of life" practiced by ordinary "good" people.
According to the Southern community's consensus of "normal," those fighting for rights now considered mainstream were "extremists," and public servants could rationalize plans to murder men like Shuttlesworth, confident that they were on the right side of history.
Consider new evidence about a plan by Connor to have Shuttlesworth assassinated. Under Connor's orders, Detective Tom Cook Read the rest of this entry »

Today was a good day at work.
I cried.
The last time I recollect crying at work was at least 6 or more years ago when a patient of mine – a young black male, who was his mother's only son – had been murdered, and as I looked into her bloodshot, tired, hollow, intently peering and watery eyes, volumes were communicated though we neither said a word.
I couldn't bear her gaze, and after what seemed ages, I averted my eyes, and departed behind a nearby curtain in the Trauma ICU to cry. There, my tears flowed like twin rivers, swollen by a storm, albeit an emotional one, which was joined by the two smaller tributaries of my nostrils. Gazing over the city from atop the 11th story of the teaching hospital through tear-drenched eyes, I wondered… was this what dear Mother Mary felt like when she gazed upon her only son as he hung from that cross?
Today, I wept for Read the rest of this entry »

People everywhere cry for freedom.
Oppression of political speech?
Or something else?
Putin asked the courts to go easy on them.
And yet, cries of 'six more years' was not heard after the verdict was rendered.
Either way, Putin's gotta' go.
Reckon Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn is turning over in his grave?
On the face of it, there would appear to be little reason why foreign investors should worry much about Russia's Pussy Riot court case.
So what if three young female punks have been jailed for two years, as they were on Friday, for hooliganism after a noisy performance in Moscow's Christ the Saviour Cathedral? After all, there are many western countries where such a provocative public display would also result in prosecution.
But that is to misunderstand Russia. In fact, the case should give even the most hard-headed international business people pause for thought.
First, it's a reminder – not that we need one – of the heavy-handed arbitrariness of the Russian courts. The three women could have been Read the rest of this entry »

1This, too, I carefully explored: Even though the actions of godly and wise people are in God's hands, no one knows whether God will show them favor. 2The same destiny ultimately awaits everyone, whether righteous or wicked, good or bad,a ceremonially clean or unclean, religious or irreligious. Good people receive the same treatment as sinners, and people who make promises to God are treated like people who don't.

Economics is a faith-based pursuit forever in search of a new deity. Those who believe in a compassionate God struggle to explain how such a being can allow such terrible misery to be inflicted on life's innocents. Belief in the canons of economics demands a comparable leap of imagination.
When I first started writing about the subject for the FT during the early 1980s, Margaret Thatcher worshipped at the altar of something called "monetary base." The government, this creed promised, had only to regulate the quantity of notes and coins circulating in the economy and just about everything else would fall into perfect place.
Soon enough, monetarist fundamentalism proved a false prophet. The experience led to the annunciation of the heretical Goodhart's Law. Bearing the name of one of the trade's distinguished free thinkers, this says that as soon as Read the rest of this entry »

Skeptics abounded when it was announced that Mr. Colson had converted and become Christian.
Their skepticism was misplaced, for Mr. Colson's conversion was genuine.
If anything, Mr. Colson's life is a story of the redemptive and transformative power of the living Christ.
His life story is a familiar one. A man with significant talent and power goes terribly awry. When confronted with the error of his ways, he is genuinely repentant, and changes his ways. He become another man altogether… a man no one would recognize, were it not for his name to identify him.
"I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.'"
"Then the righteous will answer him, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?'
"The King will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.'"
– the words of Jesus Christ, Matthew 25:36-40
May he rest in peace, and may his memory be blessed.

1If I speak in the tonguesa of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. 2If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames,b but have not love, I gain nothing.
4Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
8Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 9For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. 11When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. 12Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
13And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

(CBS News) Chuck Colson, a former aide to Richard Nixon, evangelical leader, author and nonprofit founder, died Saturday at the age of 80.
He passed away at a hospital in Northern Virginia, three weeks after surgery to ease intercerebral hemorrhage — a large pool of clotted blood in his brain.
Colson was Nixon's special counsel and was part of the Watergate scandal which led to Nixon's resignation. He was known as the president's "hatchet man," and also served on Nixon's re-election committee, which plotted and attempted to steal information from the Democratic Party headquarters.
Colson pleaded guilty to obstruction of justice and served seven months of a one-to-three year prison sentence.
Prior to the start of his prison sentence, Colson became a born-again Christian. After his release from an Alabama prison, Colson founded Prison Fellowship, a nonprofit organization that conducts outreach to prisoners to "seek the transformation of prisoners… through the power and truth of Jesus Christ."
According to his bio for Prison Fellowship, Colson formed the idea of Prison Fellowship when a fellow inmate told him "there ain't nobody cares about us. Nobody!" Colson started the organization and ran it for 33 years.
Jim Liske, CEO of Prison Fellowship, told CBS News that Read the rest of this entry »

Ex-rocker Ted Nugent made some violent, extremely vitriolic and blatantly ignorant remarks at at the National Rifle Association's 2012 Annual Meetings in St. Louis on April 14, 2012. He was speaking to Cam Edwards and took questions from NRA members.
Specifically, the most virulent remark he made concerning the security of the leader of the free world was that "If Barack Obama becomes the president in November, again, I will be either be dead or in jail by this time next year."
His extremist remarks have now apparently garnered the attention of the United States Secret Service, which is charged with protection of the president.
The Secret Service takes all such threats against the president's life seriously, and investigates them all, because at their heart, they are terrorist threats.
It is a violation of federal law to threaten the president.
Specifically, 18 USC § 871 – "Threats against President and successors to the Presidency" – addresses that crime.
The New Yorker Magazine reported Tuesday, April 17, 2012 at 10:17AM EDT that "a spokesman for the Secret Service tells us, "We are aware of it, and we'll conduct an appropriate follow up.""
Popularly known as "The Motor City Madman," it is also well documented that Mr. Nugent Read the rest of this entry »

Of the many roles Pat Robertson has assumed over his five-decade-long career as an evangelical leader — including presidential candidate and provocative voice of the right wing — his newest guise may perhaps surprise his followers the most: marijuana legalization advocate.
Pat Robertson, center, has taken a surprising stance after his long career as an evangelical leader.
Follow @NYTNational for breaking news and headlines.
"I really believe we should treat marijuana the way we treat beverage alcohol," Mr. Robertson said in an interview on Wednesday. "I've never used marijuana and I don't intend to, but it's just one of those things that I think: this war on drugs just hasn't succeeded."
Mr. Robertson's remarks echoed statements he made last week on "The 700 Club," the signature program of his Christian Broadcasting Network, and other comments he made in 2010. While those earlier remarks were Read the rest of this entry »

Or so wrote David Broder in 1978.
The late former Alabama governor is perhaps most widely regarded – or should I write "most infamous" – for his "stand in the schoolhouse door," and formerly, his openly racist attitudes earlier in his political career.
However, there was a man whom no one knew, about whom little has been written… until now.
It is a man whose heart was broken and rendered, whose attitudes changed, who literally became a Christian, repented of his evil ways, apologized for his wrong-doings, and sought the forgiveness of the people he most deeply offended, and formerly hated.
Who was that man? Read the rest of this entry »

As a kid, I recollect lying in bed one evening and thinking that nothing was something… that there was absolutely no such thing as "no thing" because "thing" was something, and that a void, or chasm were things which also existed because there was something before and after, and which may have surrounded the same void or chasm. I reasoned further, that the existence of a void, or chasm could only be identified first by the presence of another thing which was opposite. Those thoughts I had long before I'd heard of the names of the world's great philosophers, or even read any of their thoughts. My questioning led me to suppose that, when I met the Almighty – I still aspire to that Beatific Vision – I would ask Him, "Where did you come from?"
For quite some time, I have also shared that we understand the things we do not now understand by comparing them to the things we do understand. We analogize. It was fascinating – indeed exciting – to recently hear a scientific researcher – an astrophysicist – say almost verbatim the exact same thing.
In much the same way, we use our brains to understand. Read the rest of this entry »

Dave's Diary: Family Values Win Again-Married With Kids Happiest
Here is an interesting observation for you. Married people who have kids are happier than married couples without kids and the more kids the merrier according to researchers from the University of Glasgow in Scotland. The research seems to indicate marriage is key. Couples who aren't married, even if they are in a committed relationship and live together, don't find greater happiness through children.

Local banks finding the pain is not over
Published: Monday, December 7, 2009 at 1:00 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, December 7, 2009 at 12:26 a.m.
Southwest Florida's 16 remaining community banks collectively lost $58 million during the first nine months of 2009.
Not one of them reported a profit.
Non-performing loans totaled $241 million as of Sept. 30, a 164 percent increase from the same period a year ago, and the five largest banks in the area are considered undercapitalized.
Peninsula Bank is in the worst shape of all. The Englewood-based community bank with branches on the the east and west coasts of Florida reported $116 million in non-performing loans as of Sept. 30, which represented nearly 27 percent of its loan portfolio.
But the banks new chief executive, Anthony Leo, said Peninsula still has enough capital and sellable assets to pull itself out its predicament.
Though no other bank in Southwest Florida is as bad off, there are a handful that are dealing with large levels of problem loans and are running short of capital.
Horizon Bank, Bank of Commerce and LandMark Bank have problem loans that represent from 7 percent to 9 percent of their loan portfolios, which is considered high by banking standards.
But the banks still have money set aside to deal with their bad loans, and Charlie Conoley, Horizons chief executive, sees reason to be hopeful in 2010.
Were seeing stabilization and slight improvement in the residential real estate market, Conoley said.
Unemployment is a serious problem, but tourism is hanging in there. And some builders are taking down lots again, which means construction might get started and there will be more jobs for plumbers and painters.
Because of the failure of so many local competitors, profit margins for remaining banks are improving, as is their ability to land more credit-worthy customers, Conoley said.
In the past, we were paying too much for deposits and were not charging enough for loans, he said. So we were operating on a low margin, he said. That is changing. The next 12 months are going to be tough, but it will be better than the last two years.
While seven of the eight largest and oldest banks in the region actually saw their loan portfolios shrink by $95 million during the first nine months of 2009, compared with the same period a year ago, their smaller and newer rivals have picked up some of the slack.
The eight smallest banks doubled their collective loan portfolio to $500 million as of Sept. 30 from $245 million a year ago.
Gateway Bank added $49 million in loans; Florida Shores Bank added $47 million; 1st Manatee Bank added $28 million; and Calusa National Bank added $26 million.
But even the smaller banks had their share of problems. Sabal Palm reported $4.6 million in non-performing loans, representing 9.26 percent of its loan portfolio. Insignia Bank reported $6.1 million in non-performing loans, representing 6.04 percent of its loan portfolio.
Still, analysts say they are not as worried about these smaller banks because they have a lot of capital that they are still trying to grow into.
Both Sabal Palm and Insignia had Tier-1 capital ratios of more than 14 percent as of Sept. 30; anything above 8 percent is considered healthy.
The problem in Florida is that weve had too many banks and there comes a point where they cant keep growing, said Irv DeGraw, a banking professor at St. Petersburg College.
The difference between us and retail stores is that we need to get the money back. I think a lot of bankers forgot about that.

And yes, the Hokage would be very rich since they get the most difficult missions (according to Kakashi's description of the ninja rankings before the Zabuza arc, but we have yet to see the hokage do an actual mission).
And yes, the Hokage would be very rich since they get the most difficult missions (according to Kakashi's description of the ninja rankings before the Zabuza arc, but we have yet to see the hokage do an actual mission).
Well think about it.. Sasuke was everybody's closest living relative. When they were wiped out he would be in place to Inherit every Uchiha had ever owned. That entire part of the Village should belong to him now.
I take it Naruto's father set something up for him, or there's free lodging for orphans or something. He has his own little one room apartment thingy. I'm sure they set something up for him so he could eat.
Since the Kage's ran the hidden villages I bet they got money from that land's daimyo or whatever. They probably also took a percentage of the money given out for missions. I bet a greedy kage could make good money.
As for taking care of orphans, well, I would think that with no parents there would be no objections to them becoming ninja. Once ninja they start contributing to the economy via missions.
Providing housing and food for orphans seems like an investment. For the price of a shack and some dirt cheap instant ramen you have a future member of the workforce where there are a lot of "work-related" injuries.
More seriously, Naruto was enrolled in the ninja academy before the start of the story, right? We see flashbacks of basic training like balancing practice and so on (from Iruka's past, too). I think it's likely that students are enrolled quite young (preschool can start very young, can't it?), and it becomes somewhat the teachers' responsibility to watch over their students, and (possibly) report back to the Hokage. Naruto's landlord could have also been keeping tabs on him.
Before they're old enough for that...well, Naruto would have fallen into this category, but not Sasuke. While there's likely a system set up for the general case, I'd like to think more along the lines of Urameshi's speculation: Naruto was a special case, and was taken care of by someone outside of the usual system (whatever that may be), like the Sandaime. Maybe I just like the image of him having to change Naruto's diapers.
if the funding from the village is true, i wonder how amazing that system can be done in the real world
Any of you have seen that??
It's all speculation. But I do wonder... isn't it the same with Kakashi? I don't remember if anything was said about his mother, though...
I could see Naruto and Sasuke as adopted children who rebelled against their families. Naruto probably was too troubling and Sasuke was just plain antisocial, so nobody would want to keep them around for long. That's my guess, because they should've had someone to take care of them, but obviously it was nobody special to them or they would've been mentioned somewhere (but the flashbacks always show them lonely and they never mention anybody). I mean... yes, Sasuke was 8, that's probably alright for ninjas (Itachi was ANBU captain with 13 and Kakashi had missions as a 6-year-old o_o ), but he was the sole survivor of a massacre. I'd think he had at least some... err, therapists or something to look after him?
We don't know enough about how the acadamy works to say that.
It didn't say he failed 3 years, but 3 times as far as I can remember.
We just don't know if the exam is only held once a year, like in a school when you fail the required grades and have to repeat the whole year.
It could also be like with the drivers license. You take lessons and if you fail the test you just take it again a few weeks later.
I think it's the second. But it was never stated how it works, so who knows.
"For Feanor was made the mightiest in all parts of body and mind, in valour, in endurance, in beauty, in understanding, in skill, in strength and subtlety alike, of all the Children of Illuvatar, and a bright flame was in him"
Hidden villages might really be run by communist regimes, if not socialist. I think its the perfect kind of government to handle war-oriented countries.
sasuke was old enough to take care of himself by that time
his clan was the MAIN clan of the village....he was well funded
and he has way too much pride to let some one hold his hand
even at that age....after he swore himself avenger....
naruto,was supposed to be supported by the whole village ..ever since he got
the fox implanted...remember the first volume? the third probably
looked after him till he could walk..then random people on n off looked in on him
but you gota remember he was despised...so he never became attached to anyone
...except for his teacher...we can pretty much say HE took care of naruto
was it iruka? *gets out first volume* yeah IRUKA

How Long Can You Resist A Marshmallow?
How long can you resist a marshmallow? For a minute, maybe two - How about 20 minutes? Believe it or not, the answer to that simple question, could shape your entire future - At least that, is the conclusion reached by University of Stanford scientist Walter Mischel the brainchild behind the now legendary 'Stanford Marshmallow' test.
The unusual experiment was conducted by the psychologist between 1968-1970. Children between the ages of 4-6 were invited individually and seated at a table inside a room that had a single marshmallow (or even cookie or pretzel if that is what they preferred) on a plate. They were told that if they could resist the treat for 20 minutes, they would be rewarded with another. Those that that were unable to wait, simply had to ring a bell that lay in front of them before devouring it. They would however receive no additional treats. The scientist would then sneak out and watch the kid's behavior from a one-way mirror.
What they observed was that only about a third of the kids were able to wait out the 20 minutes and that the older the child was, the better his/her resistance power. However, what was even more interesting is that most, no matter how young, did wait it out at least for a little while. Very few, gobbled the marshmallow right away.
That of course, was just the beginning of the study that has been ongoing since. Many years later, the scientist followed up with the parents of the now-grown kids with a detailed questionnaire. What he found was that those that had been able to resist the marshmallow for the full 20 minutes, were thought to be more competent by their parents, than the others. Things got even more interesting a few years later, when he discovered that the marshmallow resisters all scored an average of 210 points higher on their Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) scores than the rest of the group. Not only that, they were also better at planning and, handling stress.
Recently, Tanya Schlam at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health along with some of her colleagues decided to contact the same group for a totally different purpose - To see whether the self-control had continued into adulthood and therefore helped them maintain a healthy weight. Sure enough, they found it was directly related to the minutes they were able to hold off eating the marshmallows. Who knew that scoffing down a marshmallow when you were just four could affect your entire life!

- sherlockcutepupWednesday, February 25, 2015 at 3:08 pmmy parents didn't let me have a marshmallow for a whole year or two.
- aphphilippinesWednesday, February 25, 2015 at 9:56 amI'll problally be able to resist it for an hour.I'm not a big fan of marshmallows.
- zoellaWednesday, February 25, 2015 at 5:28 amThat depends if i'm super hungry I wouldn't last 30 seconds if its like im a little hungry I could last 2 hours
- robloxer1563Tuesday, February 24, 2015 at 12:40 pmwow! i could survive like an hour or more not eating a marshmallow
- llvdTuesday, February 24, 2015 at 9:57 amI can't resist at all. I LOVE MARSHMALLOWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MARSHMALLOWS FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- hiTuesday, February 24, 2015 at 5:56 amcool.
- ginnypandas444Monday, February 23, 2015 at 6:55 pmWOW. Scientists have a weird habit of just finding any random, totally crazy thing to test like people actually care about them! Like this marshmallow test! I mean, it's funny and entertaining, but in my opinion, who actually needs to know this? Scientists think that this article is proof that the older people get the more resistant they get, but I think this is proof that Scientists find totally irrelevant things. Please follow me!
- bigmeloWednesday, February 25, 2015 at 3:39 pmYou're absolutely right in which scientists find the craziest things to test people on, but all of these tests represent certain traits & behavior involving our own future. Also, we should care about scientists, because if we didn't have them, we wouldn't have most of the things we have today. So, we should thank & be thankful for the diverse world of scientists - they have provided for us a great amount of discoveries every single day. :D
- bigmeloWednesday, February 25, 2015 at 3:39 pmOops! I almost forgot. I'll follow you! :)
- crystalmoriMonday, February 23, 2015 at 8:04 pmActually, I think people are able to resist things better with age, too. Or rather, it just becomes easier to make your own decisions once you have your own values and opinions. Like, before, I could never play violent video games. (I don't like violence anyway, and besides, my parents wouldn't let me) Now I can handle it because I know that I value the lives of well, everyone/thing and my mind just shuts it out. This way I can watch dark stuff without being corrupted by the darkness therein. Resistance in this way is very important, and I am glad I had the chance for it to develop undeterred.
- sherlockcutepupWednesday, February 25, 2015 at 3:11 pmyou are right Crystalmori my parents don't let me do things that are not my age.
- LillyMonday, February 23, 2015 at 5:57 pmI would last forever because I don't eat them.
- taco_xMonday, February 23, 2015 at 5:40 pmi can only do like an hour then i explode
