When people are talking about dealing with death, how a death comes about, whether die of natural causes, suicide, accident, or murdering, matters a lot. The trolley problem proposed by Judith Jarvis Thomson in 1976 gives me an opportunity to make a distinction between cases with similar situations but opposite results. I agree with Judith Jarvis Thomson’s opinion about the trolley problem which was presented in her later paper published in 1985. Thomson (1985) attempts to show that it is…

What We Learned from the Rockets in Round 1 The Houston Rockets put an end to Russell Westbrook’s historic season Tuesday night with a 105-99 victory. They will now face the winner of the San Antonio Spurs/ Memphis Grizzlies series. I had predicted before the series started that the Rockets would win in six games, but I was blown away by the performance of the Houston bench. Despite video game numbers from Westbrook, the Rockets showed how much team chemistry they have going forward and will…

This is the type of style that was used in the Jaripeo that I attended. These riders hope that the spurs alone will be enough to keep them on the bull. This style of bull riding dates back to the 1980s. This style has caused many deaths for both riders and bulls. The…

closer to putting up the big 500 on bench ( but maybe that is one of my issues also ). So I gave in and saw my Dr and he stated it sounded like a bone spur, but to be safe he did x-rays ( as a side note being an athlete , I should be able to glow in the f-ing dark , I have had so many x-rays ).
