 Ever had someone give you bad news? How about good news? What's the difference or is there a difference? Good news - stuff or information that makes us happy, content, reassured, secure and validated. Bad news - the opposite. So, it would appear that there is a difference between good and bad news - read on. Have you ever gotten bad news but in the end things turned out well or better than you anticipated?

  It seems that the more gadgets we have that were all touted as being able to de-stress us by keeping us up to date, the more stressed out we have become. People walk out of their houses on their phones, they drive while checking their emails, and walk down the street while texting someone. You know, there is something to be said for not knowing everything right now. Wouldn't it be nice to walk down the street to your local store and actually watch where you're going? Take time to see the trees, the insects, and the birds as you go by? Being able to drive in your car and enjoy the view, what a simple pleasure we take for granted. Sometimes we're trying to talk to one person while texting someone else. Gone are the times when you had someone's undivided attention, and enter the times when our lives have become one multitasking session after another. Being detached from the grid from time to time can be very de-stressing, unless you start stressing about not knowing. The...

  We probably all have a pretty good intuitive notion of what a game is. The general term "game" encompasses board games like chess and Monopoly, card games like poker and blackjack, casino games like roulette and slot machines, military war games, computer games, various kinds of play among children, and the list goes on. In academia we sometimes speak of game theory, in which multiple agents select strategies and tactics in order to maximize their gains within the framework of a well-defined set of game rules. When used in the context of console or computer-based entertainment, the word "game" usually conjures images of a three-dimensional virtual world featuring a humanoid, animal or vehicle as the main character under player control. (Or for the old geezers among us, perhaps it brings to mind images of two-dimensional classics like Pong, Pac-Man, or Donkey Kong.) In his excellent book, A Theory of Fun for Game Design, Raph Koster defines a game to be an interact...

Lifestyle tools that almost all people will benefit from. Tips for a Better Lifestyle 1-Don...

  Introduction: Cannabis is not only the most abused illicit drug in the United States (Gold, Frost-Pineda, & Jacobs, 2004; NIDA, 2010) it is in fact the most abused illegal drug worldwide (UNODC, 2010). In the United States it is a schedule-I substance which means that it is legally considered as having no medical use and it is highly addictive (US DEA, 2010). Doweiko (2009) explains that not all cannabis has abuse potential. He therefore suggests using the common terminology marijuana when referring to cannabis with abuse potential. For the sake of clarity this terminology is used in this paper as well. Today, marijuana is at the forefront of international controversy debating the appropriateness of its widespread illegal status. In many Union states it has become legalized for medical purposes. This trend is known as "medical marijuana" and is strongly applauded by advocates while simultaneously loathed harshly by opponents (Dubner, 2007; Nakay, 2007; Van Tuyl, 2007). ...

  The world of Nitro Powered (or Gas Powered) Remote Control vehicles is exciting and exhilarating for virtually all age groups. The initial cost of nitro powered RCs is typically higher than most electric RC vehicles. For instance, instead of replacing worn-out batteries you'll be replenishing fuel and oil, and other wear-out parts such as tires, shocks, and even vehicle bodies regularly. With that said, the thrill of control over a fast nitro-powered vehicle is sure to please. For Nitro RC cars and trucks you can look at off-road type vehicle as well as pavement racers - built for speed. Nitro cars and trucks can be purchased in a kit assembled or un-assembled for the serious enthusiast. Styles will vary greatly along with the engine selection. As mentioned, Nitro-powered vehicles require a different budget allowance, but it doesn't stop there. Sure, most electric vehicles are easy to maintain for, but gas-powered engines require a little more TLC. Similar to a new, full-size...
