15 - Benefits of Drinking Alcoholic Beverage


When it comes to your health, is it better to drink or not to drink?
It's becoming an even more complicated question, especially in the wake of several recent studies linking even a little drinking of alcohol to a higher risk of cancers.
In one of them, researchers found that women who had as little as one drink a day boosted their risk of cancer of the breastliver, rectum, throat, mouthe, and esophagus. Meanwhile, numerous studies dating back decades show that alcohol and heart health have a positive relationship.
So what's a health-conscious person to do? WebMD asked experts in cardiology, oncology, epidemiology, and internal medicine who are familiar with the latest research to clarify the risks and benefits of alcohol intake.

Numerous studies have associated heavy or binge drinking with increased risk of diabetes. But others have found that a moderate intake could reduce the likelihood of developing the condition.

14 - Legalizing Premarital Sex



It is puritanical to make everyone wait till they are married to have sex. People should have time to wait an experiment with other people before committing to a single person for the rest of their lives. Most people want to be skilled at sex before they get married anyway.


Now don't get me wrong... if your teen is having sex, the last thing their conscious mind wants is a baby. But the primal mind of every human is hardwired for reproduction and sex. God made us to reproduce and populate this wonderful earth. Even if you are not religious, we all are humans, and reproducing and spreading your genes is part being human. 


Look at it this way: how many of your parents were puritans, and got married before they had you? This is not Hollywood. Everyone has different morals. This post respects this and wants you to just take it under consideration for a fun lifestyle choice, including adventure and freedoms, not the restrictive puritan old dusty grimy ways.





13 - Positive Effects of Video Games



Video games force kids/adult to think quickly. In particular, action games encourage players to make fast decisions using evidence gathered throughout the game, according to a study explained on the Daily Tech website. Kids who play video games are given unusual problems to solve, many of which they must solve very quickly. This process improves critical-thinking skills and can teach kids the value of trying several different solutions to a problem, a skill that will benefit them for life. Additionally, children who are able to pay attention to a sequence of events in a video game are more likely to apply this skill to their real lives.

The player learns to manage resources that are limited, and decide the best use of resources, the same way as in real life. Video games are often blamed for poor social skills in children. However, according to Psych Central, the opposite may be true, since video games often allow players from around the world to work together to solve problems or complete tasks. This is especially true in children with autism. Playing video games can teach children with autism or an autism spectrum disorder how to respond to visual and verbal queues, in turn improving their social responses.

12 - Sports photography



Action and sports photography is challenging but very exciting. The key to getting good pictures is to set your camera up properly before the event begins, so that when things kick off you can forget about your settings and focus on the action.
The following camera settings are an excellent place to start. They work well in all situations and will help you get sharp, detailed photos with plenty of atmosphere and interest.
Get as close to the action as possible. No sport is going to allow you to be 
on the court or field-of-play. However, you may be able to sit near the sideline or goal-line at some events. Other times you may be restricted to the stands. It is important to get there early in order to have the best opportunities.
Also, be sure your field of vision is not obstructed. This may be nearly impossible to do in a crowd. However, with a little planning and maneuvering you should be able to set up for some great shots.
Position yourself so that you have a clean background unobstructed by unsightly objects such as trashcans or other photographers. You will want the focus to be on the players and not on background noise.

Practice make perfect in sports photography. You can not rely on just luck. You must practice in order to train your reflexes to react in an instant.

11 - Ghost Hunting


I’ve always been fascinated by ghosts and creepy phenomena. As a child, I firmly believed that there was more to the world than what was immediately visible and I desperately wanted to be able to truthfully say, “I see dead people.” Many years later, I can say…I’ve seen weird shit. I can’t say for sure whether I believe in ghosts, but I’ve experienced some things I can’t explain.
October is the best month to get really and truly scared. Sure, you could go on some lame hayride and get chased by “ghosts” in period clothing and white makeup or you could look for a real ghost. ’Tis the season for ghost hunting, because even your skeptical friends can be convinced to indulge on the grounds that it makes for some harmless Halloween fun.
I love a mystery, and I’m fascinated by dark and morbid stories the tragic deaths, the haunted houses, the legends that survive for generations. And most of all, I relish the opportunity:

" ghosts can be anywhere. Everyone has a chance to find one."



10 - Body weight exercises


I often find myself surfing the net, scouring various forums and obscure web sites in an effort to learn more about fitness and health. When I do so, however, I'm often surprised how often I run into the opinion that bodyweight exercises are great for building endurance, but not strength. 

This is demonstrably not true. As I point out elsewhere on this site, how do animals such as Gorilla's or Chimpanzee's develop their amazing strength and power? They never lift weights, yet they posses astounding strength and power. Yes, the answer often comes back, but that is different. The muscles that animals posses are somehow "different" than human muscles, etc. I doubt this (muscle is muscle), but for the sake of argument  let's accept it for the time being. Instead, let's consider the example of one of the most "animal like" athletes I'm aware of. Namely, the Gymnast. 

So if i were you, Work hard!


9 - Cyber bullying


It's just about as bad as being bullied in real life.The traumatic effect can harm someone's emotions to a point that might even cause suicide.For many older people. The word "trolling" means to pick fun at someone to 
get a rise out of someones emotions.Eventually trolling can get 
seriously played out like a dirty sock.I feel a majority of teen can be affected but so can adults.

While cyber bullying IS a thing, most people who go cry themselves to sleep cry over some random fuckboi talking shit about you, then go cry to tumblr bout muh insecurities and shit. If you can't handle a little banter you just need to stay off the internet, because that aspect of it's never changing. There is a very clear line between random banter and someone truly bullying you on the internet. When people dox you and start fucking with your personal, home life, then that is cyber bullying. If somebody called you a mean "name", and you get upset and emotional over it, you're just being a pansy and need to learn how to block/mute/ignore people.

I know this is an issue for some young people, however, I think it's up to the parent to supervise what their child is being sent over the internet. I would teach my child that just because someone says something about you, doesn't make it true.
