Donald Trump’s UN mouthpiece “Nikki Haley” has suggested that the case of Iranian protests has to be taken to the UN Security Council— that is actually a great idea —all cases of human rights violations must be taken to the UN — any government anywhere in the world that abuses its power and unleashes its violence against its citizens must be taken to the UN— and even after that to the International Criminal Court —

But this “Nikki Haley” character must respect her elders and her moral superiors and stand in line to take the ruling regime in Iran to the UN— for long before she denounced her own heritage, declared herself “white,” and converted to a Christian Zionist to jumpstart her career opportunism, the glorious leader of the Civil Rights Movement in the US Malcolm X had proposed that the US must be taken to the UN and charged with the historic violation of African-Americans Human rights—

Someone at the UN must screen this video clip of Malcom X at the Security Council and watch Nimrata Randhawa raise her hand and singlehandedly veto it— as she did when the entire world opposed the US stealing Jerusalem to give it to her favorite settler colony—

NORWEGIAN: NO THANK YOU, PRESIDENT TRUMP
So instead of trying to import our whiteness, the US President should try letting some of our ideals in. Also, immigrants have been and are shaping Norway. Our history is formed by migration, from the Vikings traveling the world to the German Hanseaten coming to Bergen, a city on the southwestern coast. Nearly 17% of our population is made up of immigrants or have immigrant parents. This includes Somalis, Eritreans, Iraqis, Syrians, Filipinos, and Pakistanis. This is not to say that Norway is perfect — and Trump needs to understand this part too.

Our Prime Minister, who met with Trump earlier this week, does not say that there are "some very fine people" among the marching Nazis. She warns that they could rip our society apart. The key to fighting against such tendencies is integration and equality. Encouraging a society where we judge people as individuals, not for belonging to an ethnic or religious group, is crucial. These are the same ideals that Martin Luther King Jr. promoted, and that Donald Trump, bizarrely enough, praised in his first meeting with the press after the comments on "shithole countries" and Norway.

SO YOU'RE THINKING ABOUT INVESTING IN BITCOIN? DON'T
DON’T BE A FOOL. The reason why is that it’s not an investment; just as gold, tulip bulbs, Beanie Babies, and rare baseball cards are also not investments. THESE ARE ALL THINGS THAT PEOPLE HAVE BOUGHT IN THE PAST, DRIVING THEM TO ABSURD PRICES, NOT BECAUSE THEY DID ANYTHING USEFUL OR PRODUCED MONEY OR HAD SOCIAL VALUE, but solely because people thought they could sell them on to someone else for more money in the future.

INVESTING means buying an asset that actually creates products, services or cashflow, such as a profitable business or a rentable piece of real estate, for an extended period of time. An investment is something that has intrinsic value – that is, it would be worth owning from a financial perspective, even if you could never sell it.

**NASA was interviewing professionals to be sent to Mars. Only one could go, and he couldn’t return to Earth.

The first applicant, an engineer, was asked how much he wanted to be paid for going. “A million dollars,” he answered, “because I want to donate it to M.I.T.”

The next applicant, a doctor, was asked the same question. He asked for two million dollars. “I want to give a million to my family”, he explained, “and leave the other million for the advancement of medical research.”

The last applicant was a lawyer. When asked how much money he wanted, he whispered in the interviewer’s ear, “Three million dollars.” “Why so much more than the others?” the interviewer asked. The lawyer replied, “If you give me $3 million, I’ll give you $1 million, I’ll keep $1 million, and we’ll send the engineer.”

بهرحال بزرگ فكر كن

مردم طرفدار بازنده‌ها و پيرو برنده‌گان بزرگنند؛
بهرحال براي بازنده ها تلاش كن.

چیزی را که برای ساختنش سال ها تلاش کرده ای، ممكن است در یک شب از بين برود؛

مردم واقعاً به كمك نياز دارند، اما اگر به آنها كمك كني ممكن است به تو حمله مي‌كنند؛
بهرحال به مردم كمك كن.

اگر بهترین هایت را به دنیا بدهي ممكن است سرخورده شوي؛
بهر حال تو بهترین هایت را به دنیا بده.

How a Bad Mood Affects EMPATHY in Your Brain
According to a new study, we're less able to resonate with other people’s pain when we’re feeling down. Jill Suttie- Dec. 2017

Bad moods are no fun; but we all get them from time to time. I sometimes feel down reading the news or forgetting to exercise; others may become moody after a setback at work or a fight with their partner.

Now, a new study published in Psychophysiology suggests that bad moods seem to impact the neural underpinnings of empathy, as well, with important implications for our relationships. Past research has shown that our neural wiring allows us to experience what another person is feeling—something called emotional resonance, an important element of empathy. This is why we tend to get scared watching horror movies and feel happy when a loved one expresses joy.

To look at how moods might affect emotional resonance, researchers in the new study hooked up 23 students from a Chinese university to an EEG to measure brain activity and had them listen to music or to a broadcast that put them in either a good, bad, or neutral mood.

Participants were then shown pictures of people going through painful or neutral experiences—such as getting a hand shut in a door versus seeing a hand closing the same door. Afterwards, they reported how much pain they thought the person in the picture felt and how painful it was for them to see these pictures. Findings revealed that participants in a bad mood showed brain activity linked to lowered emotional resonance with people in pain than participants in a positive or neutral mood. This pattern was mirrored in how they rated their own discomfort at seeing others in pain, suggesting that someone in a bad mood might be less empathic and less motivated to help a person suffering than someone in a good mood.

According to the authors of the study, this concurs with previous studies that found people in a bad mood are less able to mirror other people’s actions and facial expressions. In other words, we are less tuned to others when we’re not feeling good. The study extended past research by showing us the neural underpinnings that may be responsible for this effect.

On the other hand, participants in a bad mood did not consistently make reduced ratings of another’s pain in the painful scenarios. So, while our bad moods may affect automatic, unconscious empathic processes, they seem to have less impact on cognitively controlled processes—such as imagining how another person might feel.

What does this mean for our relationships? Being in a bad mood could impact our orientation toward another’s suffering and our desire to alleviate it. In addition, since bad moods may be contagious, being in a bad mood could put others in a bad mood, which might impact their ability to empathize with us, as well. In just the moment when we could use some support, our ability to connect may be hindered.

Of course, bad moods aren’t something most of us can control. And we shouldn’t simply try to wipe them away and fake being happy. But, if we keep in mind that we have the power to shift our moods and maintain some emotional balance, we may be doing ourselves—and those around us—a big favor.
