well my biggest problem is that who to invite.i mean we effect people we don't even notice and they would want to see you even though you don't know there name or any thing but they will want to express respect,sorrow or what ever.a funeral is like a party of appreciation for the person.i mean it is not happy but it is a gathering and you hear people say stuff about you that you never thought they would of said. it is a nice idea and i would like to see that while I'm alive and hear good things that these people think of me.it is a shame that we don't hear this while were alive because i think if people heard things good about them more often maybe they would be better people.i don't know
how did i feel about this?
well i think it is some what comforting and unsettling to think about this. i mean to think about not existing any more having the experience of complete loses of cautiousness. also looking at the complete change in someone when there dead and thinking that will be you. death over all is not scary it is the dieing that is scary. getting dead. when we see death it is a negeative thing but i think we look at dieing as bad. also i know before someone dies a flood of dopamines and they get in to a good feeling so mabye dieing might be enjoyable. so we have a biological fear of death which is understandable we cant change that so easyly but why not try we will get there soon.

"An analysis led by a UC researcher calculates that the number of obese adults over the age of 60 will rise from 14.6 million in 2000 to 20.9 million in 2010--an increase of 43 percent." http://healthnews.uc.edu/news/?/681/
this rise in obesity will lead tto higher rates in heart realted illnesses.
since there are these problems of old poeple how many people in the united states are old?
In July 2003, 35.9 million
people were aged 65 and older in
the United States, or 12 percent
of the total population. Among
the older population, 18.3 million
people were aged 65 to 74, 12.9
million were aged 75 to 84, and
4.7 million were 85 and older.
i got this from http://www.census.gov/prod/2006pubs/p23-209.pdf
if there are these many poeple what is there life expetinticy?
• People in the United States are
living longer and healthier lives
than ever before. Average life
expectancy at birth rose from 47.3
in 1900 to 76.9 in 2000.
again i got this at
http://www.census.gov/prod/2006pubs/p23-209.pdf
now that we know there amounte of poeple what is the demographics?
• In 2003, non-Hispanic Whites
accounted for nearly 83 percent
of the older population. Blacks,
Asians, and Hispanics accounted
for 8 percent, 3 percent, and 6
percent, respectively.
again http://www.census.gov/prod/2006pubs/p23-209.pdf
now where would one find the most old poeple in this country?
Florida, Pennsylvania, and West
Virginia were the states with the
highest proportions 65 and older in
2000: 17.6 percent, 15.6 percent,
and 15.3 percent, respectively.

online uniform
human beings have always been social creatures poeple come toughter in there packs (familys) ually to find have a comforble living and have a higher chance of survival. today poeple still have that need to be in groups. this need to be in groups stemming from our evoulsary back round human spent most of our history evouling to the hunting and gathering life style.humans have inhert need to be in groups and when this is taken away it leds to deire conaquese. this need for being totugher with other poeple has been taken avaentage of by the media to make us by there goods and fall in to a uniform personaltys that would be fit or profitable. most of the ideas that are given in online media is usally shallow, not well thought out and follow a stereo type ofthen also claim to have an answer to every thing. but why do poelple fall for such things arent poeple smarter to serptate relatiy from the fiction that is being presented to them about how to solve these social problems if any problem at all.
this deperaate plea to be accpted or to have fofilled the soical norm is take avatage of by the online adversiers and even vides, articels about how to live an aspect of your life to the "fullest" as they see fit. the problem with these how to videos is that they make also make stereotypes for gender race mroepromintit in socity when it wouldnt really matter at all. also it enhance the chaterized poeple before we know them. for instance in the on how to be a good girlfriend men are shown dumb and love beer, this is not true for many i would think. Also the videos protray all women as sophisticated and smart when that is also not always true.these videos on how tolive your life only septrae poeple by fitting themin to stereo types. this expection of poeplewill fail becuase not allmen are one way and not allwomen are one way becuase of this it would lead to apersonal confusetion always looking for a futher easiar way. this is like a never ending circle where poeple find answers get them wroung and go back to find more anwers and it contiues.
how have advertiements, songs , videos and marjor motion pictuers. the problem is having kids listening or watching these thigns not becuase it will make them sinners but becuase it will confuse them as they grow up as teens and become adults. as adults they will pass what they learned to there childern and it will keep going forever changing the futer of a culture and media.for exsample when you watch something how wouldyou see if lets say 10 or 15 years younger. would you see themusic and the movies the same and how would it effect you. what have i seen that effected how i see poeple.well i grew up watching godzilla movies and i always saw the humans as bad guys. now if i was younge now a days and lack of godillza movies. i was watching transformers earlyer today and thinging about it i might offell in to that when i was younger becuase gaint machines but that movie all the women are not normal poeple there makeup is always perfect. the men are all soilders, horny and drive fast cars that are robots. so what would i expect to see inmy self in that. well nothing im not in that world so as i child i would look to poeple who are like that maybe or look to make my worldlike that expecting poepl to be like in the poeple in the transformer moive. well thats me being a big kid to see that but is there any real sexual adveritments towards childenrn if mytheroy is right that people in are trying to make childern grow up thinking that poeple should look like. well one way to show how peopleshould look like is to look at the hero charter there it is more likely for the child tolook up to the hero charter then any one else in the stroy. so hero chaters, i will show one for male consumers and female consumers. for males that most poeple rememebr is superman.most boys are told or do look up to superman he is mulscalr, tall, strong and white. this is not online but it is the same kinda brain washing where poeple strive to achive an imgae or staus. sueprman and how to be a good boy friend or differnt but come from the same tree. both do the same thing in telling poeple how to act esacalyl when they are as i said before the hero charter. this will in turn effect the next gernation where they will tell there kids the same vaules usally or change what they know to fit even higher expections. for exsample again i will use a super hero who has changes the most with the time. for exssample batman, he first started as a i demshaialnl chater with purple gloves runnign around punching poeple some times killing them.btu how his attuibe and phyic chaged. this shows poeple how they should be over time and these charters change becuase of popeles exoetions.
poeple expect them sleves to be like these impossible expections they hope to fofill but never could and never can.

obama
today this speech was to set the tone of his next fours years of being a president. it was saying over all we will improve and work hard as Americans. is he kidding the idea in this country to to get as much as you can for as little as you can give. hope fully he will inspire people to go out and do something that will benefit the country and not them selves. but he has allot on his plate and i hope he could do some thing to really make a change or a better America. all these problems he has must be attacked with creativity. many people are comparing him to FDR with all that he needs to deal with also having to clean up after a much hated president hoover and bush. over all i don't think it has gotten that bad under bush for us but maybe bad enough that people are comparing him to hoover or Nixon. so this connection to the past shows the hope and desperation that people for America. like Roosevelt that Obama will need to be creative with plans for the country and possible do things to fix America inside and out. the world has its eyes on him he can only deliver or fail.
martin luther king day
martin Luther king is remembered for being a activist during the civil rights. he was the shield of of the civil rights usually going to Cristian ideals to make his protests. an American Gandhi in some ways avoiding violence and taking as many saw it to be the better route. being tracked by the FBI having bugs on his phone tracking what he said and where he went. but why would they do that did they feel his none violent protest where some thing to worry about? the FBI felt that his ideals shared many with the communist ideology.so in short they where afraid that he was spreading Communism in America. this is another reason for the conspiracies that have been shading his assassination. America celebrates his idea of treating every one equal but at the same time America likes that idea to a point where if being equal effects the wallets then it is bad. but at the same time i remember imagining a world where every one is equal is that what he was talking about some times? that is not really addressed.
is America following his ideas even today.
i feel that people still serrate them selves from other races. also i feel our country looks at it as black and white when there are other colors and races. like native American ,Asian and Hispanic just to say a few. i think that now that we have a larger world that dose not just have black and white and maybe we should switch from black and white to full techno color and make all those people equal. one of which who are becoming the majority so we need to understand that there is not black and white.
