Firefox People vs Internet Explorer People:
"Firefox users are slightly more likely to be male (55 percent) than Internet Explorer users (50 percent). In addition, compared to IE users, Firefox users more likely to have annual household incomes of at least $75,000. Firefox users are significantly younger: They are 69 percent more likely than IE users to be between the ages of 18-24. Firefox users are more likely to be tech-savvy, educated, and engaged with user-generated content."

Awesome.

By the way, I use Firefox. ;)

We all have habits, good and bad. I'll agree, sometimes some can become annoying. But you can't get mad. Why? Think of it this way: You do something over and over. Once you've done it so many times, your body says, "Hey, how about I do this automatically for you, so you don't even have to think about it?" Your subconscious mind then takes over from there. A habit is your body going into autopilot. It's just trying to save you precious thinking time (since we all think so much anyways...). So, don't get mad. Get autopilot. It rules.

Sean and I saw a group playing out at the friz course the other day. They had a small dog with them that had to be no larger than five pounds (guess) and looked like a little, brown fur ball running around. As the group walked away, we watched as the little fella comically trudged along after its masters, trying to keep up. The terrain on this particular hole was once engulfed by the river, so the ground is completely covered with smooth stones. The pup was obviously having a hard time navigating over the landscape. With a laugh and a smile, Sean turned to me and said, "There is no way that is a native animal."

Ever since this incident, I've found myself applying this idea whenever I see an animal. Many pets people own are obviously not made for our area, and it shows. And it's freaking hilarious. Give it a try.

Speaking of the economic crisis, How about this idea? Whenever an individual wants a new car, they have to take it up with the car manufacturer themselves. If I want a brand new car, I could approach the manufacturer and request it. The factory then orders it, builds it and ships it to my area. An open market is left open for individuals to sell their used vehicles amongst other people. Car lots covered with strings of shiny, new cars would be no more. For new vehicles, demand would meet supply perfectly.

While I was feeding my fish in the backyard pond today, a few wasps zoomed by me. I've always been curious but have never actually known exactly where bees go or what bees do during the winter. Surely they're not out and about, I've never seen even one bee during the cold season. So I hit the books. I learned that different species of bees will behave differently during winter, so I stuck with the classic honeybee.

When temperatures fall, honeybees stay in their hives. Some bees will hibernate, but the workers form a huge "bee ball" surrounding their queen. The bee ball is constantly moving, with each bee vibrating his wing muscles to raise temperature. Heat is also generated by the oxidation of the honey that was produced during the warm season. This heat is then disbursed amongst the hive by the wing-fanning of worker bees. These methods warm the hive enough to keep it from freezing. The workers feed on the stored honey and can consume up to 30 pounds of it throughout the winter. And you thought honeybees are working so hard to supply us with honey? Think again, they are working hard to survive!

The Earth can be thought of as one huge ecosystem. It is a physical environment with a community of living, interacting organisms. You have those that roam freely amongst the Earth and those that grow through and from it. There are natural processes that maintain and keep the planet operating. How, then, are our bodies so different from planet Earth? We, too, can be thought of as an ecosystem. We have navigating germs and cells that resemble the roaming animals, growing hair that represents the sprouting plants and vegetation, and bodily functions that represent natural planet maintenance. Inside each of us, we have a whole world of our own.

Planet Earth has opened my eyes! After watching the Jungles episode for close to the sixth time over, I got to thinking: We always think of our planet as having three main living environments: water, land, and sky. But we are missing one, one that isn't so obvious and almost always overlooked. The treetops. Sure, there are many animals that live in the treetops along with another environment, such as birds, but there are some animals that spend their entire lives in the branches of trees miles above the ground. And they never come down. Quite a lifestyle.

Greetings everyone.  I recently learned a lot about the wonderful fruit, bananas.  They are one of the healthiest fruits (foods, for that matter) around.  Read on, and I shall educate you.

Why I Love Bananas So Much & Why You Should Too

Bananas contain three natural sugars - sucrose, fructose, and glucose combined with fiber.  A banana gives an instant, sustained and substantial boost of energy.  Research has proven that just two bananas provide enough energy for a strenuous 90-minute workout.  It then makes sense that the banana is the number one fruit with the world's leading athletes.

Bananas are extraordinary in that they can help us prevent or overcome a substantial number of illnesses and conditions.  I'll lay them out for you:

Depression:  According to a recent survey undertaken by MIND amongst people suffering from depression, many felt much better after eating a banana.  This is because bananas contain tryptophan, a type of protein that the body converts into serotonin, known to make you relax, improve your mood, and generally make you feel happier.

PMS: Forget the pills - eat a banana.  The vitamin B 6 it contains re gulates blood glucose levels, which can affect your mood.

Anemia: High in iron, bananas can stimulate the production of hemoglobin in the blood and so helps in cases of anemia.

Blood Pressure: Bananas are extremely high in potassium yet low in salt, making it perfect to beat blood pressure.  So much so, the US Food and Drug Administration has just allowed the banana industry to make official claims for the fruit's ability to reduce the risk of blood pressure and stroke.

Brain Power: 200 students at a Twickenham (Middlesex) school were helped through their exams this year by eating bananas at breakfast, break, and lunch in a bid to boost their brain power. Research has shown that the potassium-packed fruit can assist learning by making pupils more alert.

Constipation: High in fiber, including bananas in the diet can help restore normal bowel action, helping to overcome the problem without resorting to laxatives.

Hangovers: One of the quickest ways of curing a hangover is to make a banana milkshake, sweetened with honey. The banana calms the stomach and, with the help of the honey, builds up depleted blood sugar levels, while the milk soothes and re-hydrates your system.

Heartburn: Bananas have a natural antacid effect in the body, so if you suffer from heartburn, try eating a banana for soothing relief.

Morning Sickness: Snacking on bananas between meals helps to keep blood sugar levels up and avoid morning sickness.

Mosquito Bites: Before reaching for the insect bite cream, try rubbing the affected area with the inside of a banana skin. Many people find it amazingly successful at reducing swelling and irritation.

Nerves: Bananas are high in B vitamins that help calm the nervous system.

Ulcers: he banana is used as the dietary food against intestinal disorders because of its soft texture and smoothness. It is the only raw fruit that can be eaten without distress in over-chronicler cases. It also neutralizes over-acidity and reduces irritation by coating the lining of the stomach.

Temperature Control: Many other cultures see bananas as a 'cooling' fruit that can lower both the physical and emotional temperature of expectant mothers. In Thailand, for example, pregnant women eat bananas to ensure their baby is born with a cool temperature.

Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD): Bananas can help SAD sufferers because they contain the natural mood enhancer tryptophan.

Smoking & Tobacco Use: Bananas can also help people trying to give up smoking. The B6, B12 they contain, as well as the potassium and magnesium found in them, help the body recover from the effects of nicotine withdrawal.

Stress: Potassium is a vital mineral, which helps normalize the heartbeat, sends oxygen to the brain and regulates your body's water balance. When we are stressed, our metabolic rate rises, thereby reducing our potassium levels. These can be rebalanced with the help of a high-potassium banana snack.

Strokes: According to research in The New England Journal of Medicine, eating bananas as part of a regular diet can cut the risk of death by strokes by as much as 40%.

Warts: Those keen on natural alternatives swear that if you want to kill off a wart, take a piece of banana skin and place it on the wart, with the yellow side out.  Carefully hold the skin in place with a plaster or surgical tape.

So, a banana really is a natural remedy for many ills. When you compare it to an apple, it has four times the protein, twice the carbohydrate, three times the phosphorus, five times the vitamin A and iron, and twice the other vitamins and minerals . It is also rich in potassium and is one of the best value foods around. This is why I absolutely love bananas, and why you should too!

The human race is no new thing, we have been walking the Earth for over 200,000 years. But much has changed. Humans today are (obviously) very different than humans thousands of years ago. Not only do we look, talk, and think differently, but we live differently. In biblical times, the average man could live to well over 900 years old. Today, the average individual in the United States only lives to 77 years. Our average lifespan has decreased dramatically, even to less than ten percent of what it was. So why such a change, especially one so extreme? I think this: Our lifestyle today compared to olden days is much different, much quicker, much more fast paced. Thus, because we are nowadays able to travel and communicate so much quicker than we use to, we have actually caused ourselves to not only live faster, but to die faster. Today, we can pick up a phone and be talking to someone on the completely other side of the planet within seconds. We can travel by driving anywhere at amazing speeds. Back then, you had to walk or ride your horse, extremely limiting where you can go in an amount of time. You can do in a matter of hours today what would sometimes have taken you years to do in olden times. It seems we are just digging ourselves into a never ending hole. Our advanced, lazy lifestyle that has helped make life so much easier is taking its toll methinks.

So I'm in a car driving down the road going forty miles an hour. I take my cellular phone out of my pocket, toss it straight up in the air, and catch it in my hand again without having to move my hand anywhere. So I start to think... If I throw my phone straight up, would it not, to the bystander on the side of the road, be traveling at the same speed as the car, in this case, forty miles an hour? While the phone is in the air, it is still traveling forward which is why I don't have to maneuver my hand anywhere to catch it. Thus, an example of a cell phone traveling at forty miles an hour, safe and sound. That is awesome.

The other day, I was driving in the car with Brittany when she says, "Think if you could see all of the sounds waves around. Think of how many there would be!" She continued describing how crowded and unorganized the world would look. She talked about light waves, x-rays, and all the other invisible things the naked eye cannot see. "I bet the world looks cRaZY to God!" Amen to that Brittany. Amen to that.

Your mouth has two parts: your mouth, and your jaw. You are always in control of both of these. For example, you can open your jaw without opening your mouth. You can open your mouth without opening your jaw. And, you can open both of them at the same time. Trippy to think about...

One day, a buddy of mine got too curious and decided to try cocaine. Liking it, he continued to use it until he became addicted. He started to get so desperate for it that he spent all the money he had towards the addiction. His craving remained, even after all his money was spent, so he tried to bargain with his dealer. They decided that if he would give the dealer a ride to and from work, the product would be supplied for free. Because the cocaine had such a strong grasp on him, my friend accepted. As they passed a local high school one day on the way to work, the dealer told my friend to pull over and wait because he had something he needed to do. My buddy did so, and waited in the car for several minutes, only to see the dealer come out of the school doors in handcuffs and surrounded by a swarm of policemen. They came over and pulled my friend out of the car, handcuffed him, and took him to jail. The sting set up by the police was a success, yet again. MORAL: Police are not stupid. Don't take chances, don't get too comfortable. Keep your distance and stay smart & cautious.

Our world today is run under the influence of greed. Think about it. People gain power by gaining money. The more money you make, the more power you get. These powerful people then take their money to make businesses which are run by other people who are only working under the influence of greed themselves as they wait patiently for payday to come around. We always want more money, higher wages, lower prices. But this is only to a certain extent. There are those few people who money has no effect on, people who can see right through its contagious poison. Sadly, I am not one of them (ha). Money has damaged our society, it seems damaged it more than assisted it. It has infected the minds of millions, driving them to want more power, more wealth. It is a trading solution that has backfired and is causing more and more tension each and every year. May the power of greed someday be overcome, and the difference between want to need be more clearly defined.

A little sketch I drew up during Counsel Aid, 6th period. It seems I can come up with some pretty cool designs if I'm bored enough. Every line in this pic was drawn with a straightedge ruler. Just ignore the little part where the ruler moved on me...

One thing that we as humans will never be able to perfect is approximating the amount of time left for a computer task, and that includes showing the amount of remaining battery in our wonderful electronics. The battery was first invented in 1799, over two hundred years ago, yet its amount of power remaining still remains a mystery to us. What can predict when a battery is really low on energy? The truth is, we really have no idea. Battery scientists have spent thousands of hours of labor trying to resolve this issue, but no further breakthroughs have yet been obtained. Will the truth ever be revealed, or will it remain mysterious forever such as its close brother, the gas gage? The world may never know.
