    Do you still go to the cinema? How often?

    I haven't gone to see a movie in the theaters in a long time. It's just much easier and less expensive to watch movies at home. However, there is something special about going to cinema and watching on the big screen with full sound and getting movie theater popcorn. It's something I would maybe...

    Child Murderer Up for Parole

    She needs to be sterilized so that she can't bring anymore children into this world to murder them. It is just beyond awful that she has killed eight of her children.

    Do you think Amber Alerts work?

    I think it's possible that they could work, but the majority of people probably do ignore them. I remember there was an alert awhile back that caused loud notifications on people's cellphones, which prompted many to turn off those emergency alerts so they wouldn't be bothered. However, some...

    Lip Prints Unique as Fingerprints

    This is interesting, thanks for sharing. I hadn't heard of lip prints being as unique as finger prints before, but it does make sense. I wonder how much a lip print would change from different factors such as pursing your lips differently or having chapped lips. Finger prints are probably easier...

    What is with the moms killing their babies?

    The mothers who do this are probably mentally ill. Normal people don't kill their babies. They could be suffering from postpartum depression, or most likely, they already had issues before giving birth. Anyone can have children, even people who shouldn't.

    Florida Man Found Guilty of Raping an Eight-Month-Old Puppy

    This is absolutely terrible. It makes me sick to think that someone would do that to a poor innocent puppy. There is definitely something wrong with him, and he needs to be put away for life or to receive some sort of help for his apparent issues. He would probably do the same to a human if he...

    Transgender Woman Killed by US Marine

    It is terrible that there are so many crimes against transgender individuals. I heard somewhere that the life expectancy for a transgender person is around 26 years old because they are either targeted or take their own lives. It's a sad situation.

    What are you doing right now?

    It's not lame; I'm doing the same thing... It's true that it's not a lot, but it's better than nothing. We do what we have to until we have better options.

    What can I do to be safe while running or walking outside?

    I used to think my neighborhood was pretty safe, but I recently found out that there have been reports of a man targeting women in the area. They are not extremely violent attacks, but apparently he attempts to pull their clothes off or grope them before running away. I've been staying away from...

    Woman fends off would-be rapist with frying pan

    Good for her, I'm glad she was able to defend herself. This reminds me of the scene in the Disney movie Tangled where she uses a frying pan to protect herself. Maybe it is not such an uncommon tool for defense :)

    Do you prefer to work out at the gym or at home?

    I used to like going to the gym for the classes and the motivation of having other like-minded people around, but I don't have gym membership anymore, so I've been working out at home and running outside. There are benefits to both. Which do you prefer?

    Ebola outbreak fear.

    It is definitely scary, especially for people in Africa. I'm in the United States, so I am not particularly worried about a huge outbreak here, although I know some people are. It is definitely good to be aware of what's going on and to take precautions. However, I have heard that one of the...

    I'm going to start running

    It is best to start out slowly and let your body get stronger before pushing too hard. If you push too hard in the beginning, you could injure yourself or get discouraged. When I went back to running after being in active for a little while, I was trying to go too fast and would get pain in my...
