| Respect for the dead |
 |
If you couldn't respect someone in life should you respect them after death?
I remember as a child hearing that you must never say anything negative about those who have passed on and therefore, must always show respect for the dead. I've never thought much about respecting the dead until a few years ago when my grandfather (on my fathers side) passed on and more recently when my grandmother (also on my father's side) died.
To speak highly of these people would be lying both to you and myself so I won't endeavor to do so. I would, however, like to approach the topic of whether or not the dead actually deserve respect regardless of who they were and how they acted in life.

As a webmaster, I'm on the internet almost half my day, everyday. The internet not only provides me with good ideas for fresh content to publish here but is also a way to test my skills and l3v3l 0f l337n3ss via online gaming.
I can also connect with my good friends all over the globe via AOL/MSN Messenger or chat live using headphones and a mic utilizing software such Teamspeak/Ventrillo. The internet has literally made the world a much smaller place and if used wisely, can be a good, limitless resource for many aspects of your daily life.

| Is Chocolate good for you? |
|
|
Cocoa products found in chocolate, are said to be an excellent source of catechins which are thought to protect against heart disease, cancer and other medical conditions.
Since this news has been released, there have been numerous articles emerging citing the benefits of eating chocolate and how chocolate may actually be good for you. Chocolate manufacturers also used the news to try and peddle their product to a larger audience while attempting to dispel the rumor that chocolate is no longer a "guilty pleasure".

The dangers of teenage drinking.
As a parent I've had my share of nightmares about my child's mortality and my inability to stop it from happening. In my nightmares, my daughter is usually a finger length away and as I go to grab her, the unthinkable happens and she's taken from me. I've learned that this is a part of parenting and how to deal with it although I must admit, these nightmares always leave me feeling very low.
Recently I've met a gentleman named Dave who's worse fears became reality as Dave is now the father to Michael who has become a shell of his former self. Justice for Michael is a very heart-wrenching tale of peer pressure, irresponsibility and bad luck, all of which combined to change Michael and Dave's lives forever.

| Life Support |
|

The term life support is usually left for sustaining a patients life when one of their vital organs is no longer functioning correctly. While I can see the connection for terming this form of treatment as "life support" the question that begs to be asked is, what about the years leading up to this?
Can the term life support also include all the times in ones life when support was required be it physical, psychological, emotional and/or spiritual? By my way of thinking, if you can't solve the issue on your own, getting outside help or support is helping to better your life in some way, shape or form; thus life support.
