Khen Lampert (2005): "[Empathy] is what happens to us when we leave our own bodies...and find ourselves either momentarily or for a longer period of time in the mind of the other.
We observe reality through her eyes, feel her emotions, share in her pain".
Empathy is found in many, perhaps all, mammals, and may be essential part of our specie.
It does help the group as well as the individual.
Lack of empathy is found in various types of mental disorder, such as psychopathy, antisocial personality disorder, narcissistic personality disorder and sadistic personality disorder.

As most Colias-species, it can fly very fast.
Binge drinking is an unhealthy way of drinking alcoholic beverages.
When people binge drink, they usually drink a lot of alcohol in a short time, or drink with the goal of getting drunk.
Binge drinking is very common in the United States.
The United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says that in the U.S.:
More than half of the alcohol drunk by adults is drunk during binge drinking; and
About 90% of the alcohol drunk by youth under age 21 is drunk during binge drinking.
What exactly is binge drinking?
In the United States, the most common definition of binge drinking was created by the National Institute of Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism in 2009.
It says that binge drinking is a pattern of drinking alcohol that brings a person's blood alcohol content (BAC) to 0.08 or more.
Blood alcohol content is the percentage of ethanol in the person's blood.
(In the United States, a BAC of 0.08 means a person is legally drunk.)
This means that a person would be binge drinking if:
A usual adult man had five or more drinks in about two hours
A usual adult woman had four or more drinks in about two hours.
In the United Kingdom, the National Health Service says that binge drinking is having "eight or more units [of alcohol] in a single [drinking] session for men and six or more for women."
(Units are used in the United Kingdom to measure alcohol.)
This means a person would be binge drinking if:
A usual adult man drank four glasses of wine, or three and a half pints of beer, in a single drinking session
A usual adult woman drank three glasses of wine, or three pints of beer, in a single drinking session
Dangers of binge drinking
Binge drinking can be dangerous.
It can cause alcohol poisoning.
If a person drinks too much, they can stop breathing and die.
Binge drinking can also damage the liver.
Also, it increases binge drinkers' risks of having other problems.
Binge drinkers are more likely than people who do not binge drink to:
Hurt themselves accidentally (for example, by falling or drowning)
Physical aggression like hitting, kicking, or slapping
Psychological intimidation, belittling, or humiliation
Forced sexual intercourse or activities
Controlling behaviors like isolating the person from friends and family.
Drive while drunk, crash the car, and hurt or kill themselves or other people
Hurt themselves or other people on purpose (injuries from guns, rape, and domestic violence are all more common among binge drinkers)
Get sexually transmitted diseases or get pregnant without meaning to (because they are more likely to take risks and not use birth control like condoms)
Have children who are born with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome
Have high blood pressure, strokes, and other cardiovascular diseases
Get liver disease, like cirrhosis
Get brain damage
Have erectile dysfunction

Pop is a UK children's channel that airs many children’s cartoons.
It has won a lot of awards and prizes.
Pop was called Toons & Tunes sometime before 2003, but in June 2003, it changed its name to Pop.
At first it was just music videos but in early 2004 it started to show cartoons.
These include things like Archie's Weird Mysteries, The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 etc.;
The music videos were kept but all disappeared in mid 2006.
They were brought back in 2007 but only during a slot called Pop Party.
Also changes have been made to the logo throughout the years.
To start with, it showed letters being replaced by balloons, it was all in lower case, and it had no exclamation mark but in October 2006, a change was made.
It was now white letters on an orange background.
They were in 3D now.
The exclamation mark was added and the letters were now all done in upper case.
Due to copyright reasons on the music that got changed in 2007.
In 2008 Pop's logo yet again changed.
It used to be coloured letters on a blue background but the background disappeared and the letters were now all red.
This is its current logo but the old one is still on the pop website.

The Tonian was the first geological period in the Neoproterozoic era.
It lasted from 1000 million years ago (mya) to 720 mya.
The supercontinent Rodinia began breaking in this period.
Acritarchs radiated during the Tonian.
The United States is the third or fourth biggest country in the world.
Only Russia and Canada are bigger.
If you do not count the area of the Great Lakes, China is also bigger.
Its geography varies a lot.
The area is about 3,717,000 square miles, or about 9,629,000 square kilometers.
The highest point is Mount McKinley, Alaska and the lowest point is Death Valley, California.
There are meadows and forests on the East Coast,
The Appalachian Mountains in the east
The Great Plains in the middle of the country,
The Mississippi-Missouri river, in the middle
The Rocky Mountains west of the plains
Deserts and coastal areas west of the Rocky Mountains
Forests in the Pacific Northwest
Arctic regions of Alaska
Volcanic islands in Hawaii, which is not geographically part of the Americas.
The geographic center is in Butte County, South Dakota.
The geographic center of the 48 states is in Smith County, Kansas.
There is a general rule of thumb which explains why so much of the land is close to sea level in the East, and so mountainous in the West.
It is as follows.
The Americas have been moving west for over 100 million years.
The movement has buckled up and collected geological plates in the West, and spread out the land in the East.
This has resulted in a series of mountain ranges all down the West of the Americas, and mostly low-lying land in the East.
In fact, the only high land in the East of the U.S. is where there is a very ancient ground-down mountain range known as as the Allegheny Mountains.
What is now the Alleghenys was once part of the great Appalachian orogeny (mountain building) about 300 million years ago.
What remains now is just the ground-down roots of this ancient mountain chain.
In the top-most physical map the red-brown areas are high land.
The climate varies along with the geography, from tropical (hot and wet in summer, warm and dry in winter) in Florida and Hawaii to tundra (cold all year) in Alaska.
Large parts of the country have warm summers and cold winters.
Most of the northern U.S. gets snow in winter.
Some parts of the western United States, like parts of California, have a Mediterranean climate.
The southeastern United States can get hurricanes.
Parts of the southern United States are subtropical (hot in summer and cool in winter).
Tornadoes happen a lot in the Midwest.
Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen (27 March 1845  10 February 1923) was a German physicist who discovered X-rays.
In 1901, he was the first person to win the Nobel Prize in Physics.
Röntgen was born at Lennep in the Lower Rhine Province of Germany.
His father was a manufacturer and dealer of cloth.
His mother was of an old Lennep family which had settled in Amsterdam.
Röntgen was three when his family moved to Apeldoorn in The Netherlands.
In Apeldoorn, he attended the Institute of Martinus Herman van Doorn, a boarding school.
In 1862, he attended a technical school at Utrecht, but was expelled.
He then entered the University of Utrecht in 1865 to study physics.
He entered the Polytechnic at Zurich as a student of mechanical engineering.
He worked in the laboratory of Kundt.
In 1869 he graduated Ph.D. at the University of Zurich.
He became Kundt's assistant and went with him to Würzburg.
Three years later, they went to Strasbourg.
Röntgen held positions in various European universities, but his fame rests with his discovery of (what he called) x-rays.
He received many honours and awards, doctorates, and honorary doctorates.
He was a modest man who enjoyed the outdoors and mountain climbing.
Röntgen was married to Anna Bertha Ludwig (m. 1872, d. 1919) and had one child, Josephine Bertha Ludwig.
The child was adopted at age 6, in 1887.
She was the daughter of Georges's brother.
Antoine Henri Becquerel (15 December 1852 – 25 August 1908) was a French physicist.
He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1903 with Marie Curie and Pierre Curie for his discovery of radioactivity in 1896.
This happened when a piece of pitchblende ruined some photographic film and he investigated.
Other scientists had seen film similarly ruined but did not discover why.
The SI unit becquerel named after him.
One becquerel (Bq) is equal to one radioactive decay process per second.
He was the third person in his family to occupy the physics chair at the Muséum National d'Histoire Naturelle.
Philosophical skepticism (Greek σκέψις - skepsis meaning "enquiry") is a school of philosophical thought of skepticism that began in Ancient Greece and a method that crosses many different cultures.
Many skeptics examine the meaning systems of their times, and this can often result in a position of doubt.
This skepticism can be either disbelief in philosophical solutions, agnosticism, or even rejecting the reality of the outside world.
One kind of scientific skepticism talks about looking into claims that lack evidence that can be seen.
In Islamic philosophy, philosophical skepticism was started by Al-Ghazali, known in the West as "Algazel", as a part of the orthodox Ash'ari school of Islamic theology.
It has been said that Rene Descartes' ideas in Discourse on the Method may have been influenced by Al-Ghazli.

King River is a river in the north east of Victoria, Australia.
It flows into the Ovens River and which then joins the Murray River at Echuca.
The King River is used for kayaking with many level two and three rapids.
In 2008 it was the site for the Victorian and Australian Downriver Championships.
The King Valley is a beautiful, cool climate wine grape growing area.
King Valley History
The King Valley has been described as a little part of Italy, set in the hills of north east Victoria, south of Wangaratta.
This area has a history which includes bushrangers, the Chinese and Italians.
The Chinese came from the gold fields in the mid 1800s and worked as farmers growing vegetables and tobacco.
The were also Chinese merchants, selling their goods as they moved around the valley in horse pulled wagons.
Roads in the valley today carry the names of the more important families like Mahlooks, Honey and Fosangs.
The Italians came to the area in the 1940s and 50's and like the Chinese grew tobacco.
They soon saw that it was a good place to grow wine grapes.
The valley has become famous for its different wines, such as sangiovese, nebbiolo and barbera.
The vineyards have Italian names like Pizzini, Dal Zotto, Corsini, Sartori, Ciccone and Politini.
The King Valley has some of the highest altitude vineyards in Australia.

The Placoderms (Placodermi: Greek = plated skin) were a class of armoured prehistoric fish, which lived from the mid Silurian to the end of the Devonian period.
Their head and thorax were covered by armoured plates; the rest of the body was scaled or naked, depending on the species.
Placoderms were among the first jawed fish, the Gnathostomata.
A 380 million year old fossil of one species is the oldest-known example of live birth.
The placoderms were hugely successful in the Devonian period, which is sometimes called the 'Age of Fish'.
In the Upper Devonian, a series of extinction events devastated the marine fauna.
As the placoderms were predators, this caused a swift decline in their numbers, and the class was entirely extinct by the end of the Devonian.
The main source of placoderm fossils is the Old Red Sandstone continent.
This, in the Devonian, was a united North America and western Europe and the continental shelf areas around it.
Fossils from these strata in Scotland were collected since the 18th century, and Louis Agassiz wrote the first survey of fossil fish.
A century later, Eric Stensiö showed that placoderms were genuine jawed fish.
Remarkable fossils have more recently been found in the Gogo formation of northern Western Australia.
This is a former Upper Devonian reef system, where well-preserved fossils of 25 species have been found.
The relationship between the placoderm and other jawed fish is still not clear.
Most placoderms were benthic predators, near the bottom of the water column.
The largest types, such as Dunkleosteus and Gorgonichthys were 6 metre-long top predators in the middle and upper pelagic zones.
All of these plants are herbs with corms.
The plants grows in South Africa.
In total, there are 40-60 species.
Common names for this kind of flower are Corn lily and African Corn-Lily and Wand flower.
The leaves look like swords.
The flowers look like stars.

Teleosts are the dominant fish of the present day.
They arose in the Mesozoic era, and include 20,000 living species.
The oldest teleost fossils date back to the late Triassic.
They evolved from fish like bowfins in the clade Holostei.
During the Mesozoic and Cainozoic they diversified.
96 percent of all known fish species are teleosts.
Teleosts have a movable jaw and changes in the jaw muscles.
These changes make it possible for them to protrude their jaws outwards from the mouth.
This adaptation improves their ability to grab fast-moving prey.
Date of origin
The date of origin of the teleosts is a difficult problem.
Two kinds of evidence are available.
There is evidence from the fossil record, in which the first teleost comes from the late Triassic period.
This date is somewhat later than molecular divergence time estimates (molecular clock).
A recent paper finds that fossil dates and molecular clock dates are similar to each other.
These researchers atate:
"Divergence times estimated from relaxed-molecular clock analyses yield a comprehensive time-scale of actinopterygian diversification that is remarkably close to ages inferred from the fossil record".
Teleost superorders
Osteoglossomorpha (freshwater elephantfish, mooneyes, Arapaima)
Ostariophysi (carp, goldfish, minnows, catfish, piranha, electric eels)
Stenopterygii (marine hatchetfish)
Cyclosquamata (Bombay duck.
lancetfish)
Scopelomorpha (lanternfish)
Lampridiomorpha (ribbonfish)
Polymyxiomorpha (beardfish)
Paracanthopterygii (cavefish, cod, anglerfish)
Acanthopterygii (mullet, silverside, dory, flyingfish, stickleback, seahorse)
16 Orders, and especially the Order Perciformes (40% of all fish): bass, cichlid, mackerel, tuna, perch, filefish, pufferfish, flatfish, goby, blenny, whiting, wrasse)
When people say 'fresh water', they usually mean water from the lakes, rivers, snow, and ice, which is not salty.
It also can mean water that people can drink.
The oceans and seas are made up of salt water, which people cannot drink.
People cannot drink all fresh water, because it might be contaminated.
It might have harmful bacteria in it, or poisonous because of chemicals it contains.
Water from a tap has been tested and treated so that it is safe to drink.
This applies to most countries, but in some place the water needs to be boiled first to kill the germs and drunk after it has cooled down.
Fresh water that people can drink safely is called 'potable water'.
Desalination can turn salt water into drinkable water.
What causes water scarcity is the mismatch between fresh water demand and availability.
What this means is that there is fresh water available, but not always where it is most needed.
In many countries the water used by people is recycled water.
People pay for water supply which is safe to drink.
Water theft also happens.
Thames Water thinks water loss by theft is significant.
Waste water (sewage) is treated to purify the water.
That is why people are charged for the supply of pure water.

WrestleMania XXVII was the twenty-seventh yearly WrestleMania professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event made by World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE).
It took place at the Georgia Dome in Atlanta, Georgia.
In September 2009, it was reported that the city of Atlanta was wanting to have WrestleMania XXVII at the Georgia Dome.
A press conference was held on February 1, 2010 at the Georgia Dome to officially announced the event for Atlanta; this will be the first WrestleMania to be held in the state of Georgia.
Along with WrestleMania XXVII, a group of events known as "WrestleMania Week" will be held in the week before the event including WrestleMania's yearly WrestleMania Axxess fan convention, the 2011 WWE Hall of Fame ceremony, the fourth yearly WrestleMania Art showing and auction, and a Celebrity Pro-Am Golf tournament.
According to the president of the Atlanta Sports Council, Gary Stokan, WrestleMania Axxess is planned to be held at the Georgia World Congress Center, while the WWE Hall of Fame ceremony will take place either at the Fox Theatre or at Philips Arena.
Between 15 and 20 cities were thought of to host the event, with fewer than half of the people thought of invited to explain why they should hold the event at WWE's headquarters at Stamford, Connecticut.
Atlanta's main rival to hosting the event was the city of Miami, Florida who wanted to host the event at Sun Life Stadium along with WrestleMania Axxess at the Convention Center and the WWE Hall of Fame ceremony at the American Airlines Arena.
Miami was later given WrestleMania XXVIII.
Attendance record controversy
During the pay-per-view, Justin Roberts announced a new Georgia Dome entertainment attendance record of 71,617.
But a Billboard.com article claims a Backstreet Boys concert had 73,337 people in attendance.
WWE says in their official press release that the Backstreet Boys concert only had 65,658 people in attendance.
WWE's number was later confirmed by officials at the Georgia Dome.

Enthalpy is a concept used in science and engineering when heat and work need to be calculated.
The name comes from the Greek word "enthalpos" (ενθαλπος), meaning "to put heat into".
The idea and the word were made up by the Dutch scientist Heike Kamerlingh Onnes in 1909.
Enthalpy is similar to energy, but not the same.
When a substance grows or shrinks, energy is used up or released.
Enthalpy accounts for this energy.
Because of this, scientists often calculate the change in enthalpy, rather than the change in energy.
Consider a system containing a fixed amount of gas.
Any heat energy entering the system will:
The work done is the product of pressures and volume.
Enthalpy takes both these factors into account, therefore:
Enthalpy (H)= Internal Energy (E) + (Pressure(P) x Volume (v)); H = E + (P x V)
Enthalpy and chemical reactions
When a chemical reaction happens, a substance can become warmer or colder.
As a result, heat will flow to things around it, or from things around it, until its temperature is the same again.
If the pressure stays the same, this amount of heat tells how much the enthalpy changed.
For example, if gasoline is burned in the open air, heat is released by the gasoline.
If we suppose 100 kilojoules of heat were released, then the enthalpy of the gasoline was reduced by 100-kilo joules.
Therefore the change in enthalpy for this reaction was ∆H = –100 kJ.
If a chemical reaction gives off heat (warming its surroundings), then the enthalpy of the reaction is said to have decreased.
The value of ∆H is negative.
This kind of reaction, like the example above, is called exothermic.
If a chemical reaction absorbs heat (cooling its surroundings), then the reaction's enthalpy has increased.
The value of ∆H is positive.
This is called an endothermic reaction.
MRSA is a strain of Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.
This is a bacterium which causes infections in different parts of the body.
It is tougher to treat than other strains of Staphylococcus aureus – or 'staph' – because it is resistant to some commonly used antibiotics.
In fact, it is now resistant to all forms of penicillin and cephalosporin.
The symptoms of MRSA depend on where the infected is.
Most often, it causes mild infections on the skin, causing pimples, boils or pus.
However, it can also cause more serious skin infections or infect surgical wounds, the bloodstream, the lungs, or the urinary tract.
Though most MRSA infections are not serious, some can be life-threatening.
Many public health experts are alarmed by the spread of tough strains of MRSA.
Because it is hard to treat, MRSA is sometimes called a "super bug".
Garden-variety staph are common bacteria which may live on our bodies.
Plenty of healthy people carry staph without being infected by it.
In fact, 25-30% of us have staph bacteria in our noses.
But staph can be a problem if it manages to get into the body, often through a cut.
Once there, it can cause an infection.
Staph is one of the most common causes of skin infections.
Usually, these are minor and don't need special treatment.
Less often, staph can cause serious problems like infected wounds or pneumonia.
Staph can usually be treated with antibiotics.
But over the decades, some strains of staph -- like MRSA -- have become resistant to antibiotics that once destroyed it.
MRSA was first discovered in 1961.
It's now resistant to methicillin, amoxicillin, penicillin, oxacillin, and many other antibiotics.
While some antibiotics still work, MRSA is constantly adapting.
Researchers developing new antibiotics are having a tough time keeping up.
Usually the members of a colony are genetically linked by common heredity.
Sometimes, as in bryozoa, they are genetically identical clones, sometimes as in eusociality, they are members of an extended family.
Sometimes, as with the Portuguese Man o' War, the members of the colony are joined together as one individual, which operates as a single unit.
Most of the colonies in the groups listed below build a common structure or nest.
Sometimes they are linked only by their behaviour.
The close integration of termites, ants, bees and wasps is called eusocial.

Samson is the third to last of the Judges of the ancient Children of Israel mentioned in the Tanakhic (the Hebrew Bible) and the Talmud.
He is described in the Book of Judges chapters 13 to 16.
The Book of Samson also appears in Josephus's Antiquities of the Jews, written in the last ten years of the 1st Century AD, as well as in works  slightly earlier.
He is believed to have been buried in Tel Thora in Israel above the Sore valley.
There stand two large gravestones of Samson and his father Manoah.
Nearby stands Manoah’s altar (Judges 13:19-24).
It is located between the cities of Zora and Osthol.
Samson's father Manoah, and his wife had been trying to have a baby for many years when an angel showed up in front of their house.
The angel told them that they were to have a son, who was to be a Nazarite.
The child was to never cut his hair, drink wine, or touch a dead person.
A while later, Samson was born, and he obeyed the Nazarite laws just as the angel said.
First marriage and the lion
Samson saw a pretty Philistine woman while he walked through Tinman, a Philistine town.
He went to ask permission from her father to marry her.
The Philistines at the time were the enemies of the people in Israel, so Samson did not know how his father would react once he told him the news.
While he was on his way home, a lion jumped on him.
He killed the lion with his bare hands.
After this, he told the Philistine woman that he wanted to be her husband.
At their wedding, Samson gave the Philistine guests a riddle about the lion.
However, his wife told them the answer because she was threatened by the men, and Samson realized he could not trust her.
After the wedding, she was given to another man.
Later, Samson's wife and father-in-law were burned to death.
After his first wife died, Samson found another good-looking Philistine woman.
Her name was Delilah.
Little did he know that she would betray him to the Philistines.
She tried many times to get the secret behind his great strength.
This made Samson very annoyed with her.
After a long time, Samson told Delilah that he would become weak if his hair was cut.
After getting the secret to his strength, Delilah told the Philistine army about it.
She sang him to sleep at her feet, and called a man to shave Samson's head.
After getting his haircut, Samson was tied up while still asleep.
He woke up and tried without success to break free from the ropes he was tied down with.
The Philistines grabbed him, poked his eyes out with their swords and took him to Gaza, where he was put in prison.
Samson's death
While in prison, Samson worked on a treadmill, a machine used to grind grain.
He didn't do this work for a few months until his hair grew long again.
Next, he was taken to a temple honoring the Philistine demon, Dagon to perform for the people worshipping Dagon.
While on stage, Samson told a young boy nearby to move him in between two pillars.
He pushed the pillars apart with his full strength.
This caused the temple's roof to fall down on top of himself and his Philistine audience.
Samson died, along with twelve thousand of his enemies, including their highest leaders.
He defeated more Philistines with his death than during his life.

'Nontheism' is a term that describes anyone who is not a theist.
In other words, a nontheist is anyone who does not have a specific belief in a god or deity.
It usually refers to anyone who does not have any religious belief.
This is a lot like atheism, but the two terms are often used in different ways.
The term "nontheism" was first used by G. J. Holyoake in 1852,.
He used it because of the bad associations with the term atheism.
"Mr. [Charles] Southwell has taken an objection to the term Atheism.
We are glad he has.
We have disused it a long time [...].
We disuse it, because Atheist is a worn-out word.
Both the ancients and the moderns have understood by it one without God, and also without morality.
Thus the term connotes more than any well-informed and earnest person accepting it ever included in it; that is, the word carries with it associations of immorality, which have been repudiated by the Atheist as seriously as by the Christian.
Non-theism is a term less open to the same misunderstanding, as it implies the simple non-acceptance of the Theist's explanation of the origin and government of the world."
Nontheism in society

As a child he went to "Our Lady of the Wayside," where he was made fun of for having one brown eye and one blue eye.

In his junior year he met Joe Principe at a "Sick of it All" concert show.
Joe asked Tim to sing over a few tracks that he and Mr. Precision had taped.
That is when Rise Against was formed, and Tim left college.

Tim was very active in the Chicago local alternative rock/punk scene.
His first band was the post hardcore band Baxter.
They formed in 1995 along with future The Lawrence Arms drummer Neil Hennessy and future Killing Tree and Holy Roman Empire bassist Geoff Reu.
Their first release was a full length, self released, cassette, Troy's Bucket, which was released in 1996.

In 1997 they released a 7" EP Lost Voices on Static Station Records.
After some local touring, the band split up.
Tim played bass and sang backup for The Honor System.
He sang on their demo and on some songs on their first album Single File.

The Hitler Youth was an organization in Nazi Germany for children from ages 10 to 18.
The girls split off from the Hitler Youth when they were 14 to join The League of German Maidens.
All German children between these ages whom Adolf Hitler considered to be "pure-blooded" Germans, were required to join, and parents who stopped their children from joining could be sent to prison for a  long time.
In order to get rid of any distractions or other groups that might keep children from being involved with the Hitler Youth, Hitler banned all other youth groups or clubs.
The Hitler Youth also prepared boys for the army and taught them how to use weapons.
The purpose of the Hitler Youth was to train children to accept values such as duty to the Nazi Party and to Hitler, and to teach them to be prepared even to give their lives for their country.
Many children died because of the Hitler Youth, because they became soldiers, which was one of its main purposes.
