Womens Domestic Capability

Fuck it. That'll do.

I think this is Women's attitude to cleaning compared to men's. And this is why I think this.

Women can multitask

This is true.  Human multitasking is the best performance by an individual of appearing to handle more than one task at the same time. And Women do better at it as the part of our brains that allow us to multitask is actually thicker (allowing for more brain power so to speak) then men's.

But!

The brain cannot fully focus when multitasking, and people take longer to complete tasks and are predisposed to error, which is why although women can multitask better, the task's that we carry out are usually not done to it's fullest. For instance; In the morning I always wipe down the kitchen side after I gorge down my breakfast but I never get right into the corners of the counter (although this could be down to laziness.) Men however, when they do a task they get right into it! I mean when you force them to or your lovely husband decides to surprise you by cleaning the counter, the corners of it are sparkling!

The reason why men typically are better at housework (although it always depends on the individual) is because they can't multitask very well so they complete every task to the fullest to compensate so to speak.

So for all these unfunny joke's made by douches (not all by men) about 'Women get back into the Kitchen' or 'Make me a Sandwich' how about YOU get into the kitchen and make me a Sandwich because your obviously better at it. BOOM! Roasted!    

 

IFA expo have a lot of Gadgets it's just no one can afford them

It can be suspected that this particular technology firm missed the news about there being a reccession as many of there new gadgets will most likely be left to gather dust on the shelves.

The annual IFA expo in Berlin is filled with the newest products - everything from the smartest mobile phones to the biggest TVs. Seriously if your a gadget guy you'd be in heaven! But some of this new technology is not only pointless but far too expensive. Take a look at this very fine specimen (I mean the Samsung Pavilion not the model with it.)

 

 

Something tells me I won't be needing this new technology anytime soon as I am very content with my mobile phone that look's like a brick but it definately is very impressive.

Worrying

Worrying because no one see's the point in themselves owning the latest and greatest gadgets and so firms that make new gadgets can never return there investments. Shows like the annual IFA used to direct the way the tech world would be in the months and years afterwards.

But with more people having money struggles it can be assumed that these companies will have to lower there prices of these new gadgets so that the majority can afford them and thus these companies can break even until the economy picks back up. Hopefully that will be soon which means good news for us and bad news for bankers!!!

 I can't wait to own whatever it is in the picture, finally I could impress all my other Nerd friends.

What is Suspended animation?

 

Seriously What the Fuck is it?

Well my 200 blogger friends let me explain what it is as I usually do in my weird and frankly fucking wild blog post's.


Suspended animation is the art of shutting down life processes and then starting them up again. It's wild stuff, but it's not science fiction. (Just pseudoscience if you read my previous post)

Suspended animation can potentially help trauma and heart attack victims survive long enough to be treated which is very awesome. In fact I found a video from TEDTalks to explain it far better than I could. I'm way too nice to you guys.

 

I liked this video but I expected more of an applause when he said he saved thousands of babies, I mean come on, the dude is saving babies and the crowd barely made a noise. I applauded though.

Autism and Genius

Everyone has Autism to some degree

With every negative side there will always be a positive. Its the same with psychological disorders. Having Autism and Aspergers can make living everyday life hard for some people that have the disorder to a higher degree, but Autism can make that particular individual more creative and focused.

I don't like to say the word disorder

And that's with everything. I mean just because they have a different way of looking at the world (which is what it is) doesn't mean they are wrong, does it? In fact looking at the world differently to everyone else is where new idea's are generated from, example's are; Albert Einstein, George Orwell, H G Wells, Ludwig Wittgenstein, Beethoven, Mozart, Hans Christian Andersen and Immanuel Kant. Of course these dude's died before Autism and Aspergers became an available ''condition''.

 

The link between Genius

Autism and Aspergers produce people who are;

• Highly focused
• Don't integrate into the school system very well 
• Have poor social relationships and eye contact. (which is probably why they are so focused)
• Can be paranoid and oppositional but are usually highly moral and ethical.

This doesn't sound so bad. And these are the qualities that make a genius. All they need is an empathic Adult/Parent/Friend to understand them and they can thrive in whatever they want to. In fact we as humans always tell our children 'do what makes you happy' and 'dont care what others think' which is what many people who have what our society deems as 'problems' most likely wouldn't be so unhappy if we just accepted them for who they are. Of course there will always be a few hiccups in the road called life but thats with everyone isn't it?

 


If you have an Autistic relative or child your doing a great job, you should be really proud of yourself and your relative, and if you can both understand eachother it can be one of the most rewarding relationship you can ever have. Keep in mind what's been said in this post and find a way that allows both the Autistic and yourself to thrive as everyone is unique and there will never be just one way.

 

It's not a problem if you don't allow it to be.

The advantage of being small

                                                Who wants to be tall?

In today's time, everyone is obsessed with height as they mistakenly assume that being tall means power over the little people. FUCK NO! In fact short people such as myself have so many more advantages compared to the tall people. And this post is going to explain why....


My science teacher is maybe about 6ft tall and always jokes about with me about how short I am. I am 5ft 3, and in the science lab he always has to reach the little test tube thingamabobs off of the shelf for me, because I just cant reach. But what most people do not know is that short people, many scientists hypothesis, that shorter people thrived better than the lanky people in prehistoric times.

Reason number 1;

Faster reaction time.

How are you going to survive in the wild if you cant react quick enough? The most probable reason why shorter people have quicker reaction time is because we aren't weighed down with really long bones and muscle. I can actually validate this as I have the quickest reaction time in my class with catching a ruler as measured in our science experiment.

Reason number 2;

Size isn't strength.

It's an evolutionary thing to not mess with the 7 ft  300 pound guy because you assume he could squish you. But Jackie Chan, Bruce Lee, Tony Jaa and Tom cruise are all very short guys and could probably beat any tall guy to the ground because of course they have the necessary training to do so. But it all depends on the individual as anyone with a brain cell can work out as some tall people could beat a small guy and some small guys can beat up the tall one. So this misconception that size equals strength is wrong, it's all about the individual.

Reason number 3;

Small people require less energy to function.

Being small you don't have to eat to much to feel satisfied and so in the wild you don't have to spend hours a day hunting for food as compared to a taller person.

Reason number 4;

Reduced risk of cardiovascular diseases.

People with a taller stature are more likely to have a heart attack or such likes because there heart has to beat harder to get the blood all around there body whereas a small person's heart doesn't have to because they only have a little body and can relax a lot more.

Reason number 5; 

We live for longer.

See all reason's above.

Being small isn't bad at all. I know were not living in a world where we are battling for survival and so all these reaons may seem obsolete because for whatever reason everyone is holding tall people up as the example of accomplishment. But hey, the tall people aren't making millions like this guy are they? Fuck no.

Talk to the hand.

'Humans are top of the food chain'

No we're not -_-

And we never shall be (which is a very good thing because imagine the terrible things we'd do if we were!) So who is sitting on the top of the food chain? Sharks? Hippo's? Lions? There not even a blimp on the radar.

Microorganisms

Yes, something so tiny has the potential to wipe out all species on earth. Bacteria, Viruses, Fungi and parasites are like a double edged sword to us. They can cure us such as the Fungi Penicillium chrysogenum produces a byproduct of penicillin or they can kill us. Horribly.

So in no particular order we have 3 truly awful diseases ever known to the earth.

1. Mad Cow disease.

Poor Cow that was inflicted with mad cow disease

Mad cow disease's official name is Bovine Spongiform encephalopathy. It affects the brain and spinal cord and has a very long incubation period of 30 months to 8 years and can affect both Cattle and can affect humans in the slice of Beef they eat was from an infected cow. The cause of this disease is a little misfolded protein called the Prion protein.

 

When infected with this disease you experience depression, insomnia and anxiety and as it progresses you experience muscle spasms. You then lose muscle control and coordination, and may also face some problems involving vision and memory. Starting with  blurred vision, and then forgetting people and things that they do in their daily life. Dementia thus begins to spring it ugly head and all mental and physical functions will become weakened. During the final stages of the ailment, the patient may go into a coma which finally leads to death.

 

Bovine Spongiform encephalopathy became an epidemic in 2004 and really scared people. And rightly so because it turns your brain to mush! But this is what I think of of mad cow disease...

 

 

 

2. Rabies

 A poor man infected with Rabies in restraints

 

The Rabies Virus is a viral disease (obviously) that can be transmitted through blood and saliva. It is Zoonotic like mad cow disease (which means it can be passed from animal to humans) and is almost always fatal when not treated before symptoms occur. Which is what makes it so fucking hard to treat because nobody can know if they have it if they aren't showing symptoms yet.

The Rabies virus cannot survive in water and so infects the host with a paralysing fear of water and an inability to swallow. The first symptoms appear flu like with a raised temperature, sneezing and coughing. Soon after, the symptoms expand to slight or partial paralysis, anxiety, insomnia, confusion, agitation, abnormal behaviour, paranoia, terror, hallucinations, progressing to delirium within four days of initial symptoms occurring. People with the Rabies Virus can often walk around in circles without purpose and often become violent, which is why the man depicted above is in restraints.

 

Only one person has ever survived Rabies without the intervention of a vaccination beforehand. Many people say that if a zombie apocalyse were to ever occur (these people obviously live on the internet) the Rabies virus would be responsible.

 

This Racoons not looking so sweet now is he?

 

3. The Ebola Virus

 

 

The Ebola Virus is a truly terrible virus that makes HIV look like a common cold.

Ebola hemorrhagic fever is potentially lethal and encompasses a range of symptoms including fever, vomiting, diarrhoea, generalised pain or malaise, and sometimes internal and external bleeding. Mortality rates are generally very high, in the region of 80% – 90%, with the cause of death usually due to hypovolemic shock or organ failure.

 

You can obtain this virus from unsterilised needles, hospital contagion or person to person contact. Well actually you could get it from anywhere which is why it could easily become an epidemic.

 

 

 

So here is WhatTheJunk's 3 terrible diseases that make me want to sterilise everything I own and become a shut in. And now you probably do to.

 

 

 

 

 



The uncertainty principle

The uncertainty principle is an interesting theory that falls under Quantum mechanic's and although it is only a theory, it is one that I live by. For those who do not know what Quantum mechanic's is it is basically Scientist's conducting experiments and wanting to predict there results. For instance;

A car is travelling 500 miles per hour. We can predict that it it will travel 1500 miles in 3 hours.

Anyway this above kinda falls under physic's but you get the idea that scientists were trying to predict the outcome of there experiments. But before Quantum mechanic's was born Scientist's were conducting experiments of all sort's and were getting really fucking weird results and wanted to be able to predict there results to make sure they actually got them correct. But unfortunately there early attempts to create 'rules' to calculate predictions for experiments were pretty crazy and nobody had a simple description as to how you would predict the outcomes. And like Einstein said, 'if you don't know how to explain it simply, you don't know it well enough', and thus, our brainy physicts started to unify these crazy rules and bring them together to create Quantum mechanic's.

So anyway, now that's out of the way, I can explain to you the Uncertainty principle. The equation for the uncertainty principle is this;

Uncertainty Principle

It's a nice little equation isn't it? Kinda cute too actually, lol :)

The uncertainty principle is usually put into several different ways to help people understand and the most popular one is the 'Schrodingers cat'. For you I found a short little video explaining it in a really simple way so you could understand it (but mostly because I can't be bovered to explain it all:)

             The creator of this video says 'no cats were harmed during the making of this video'


So in a nut shell, this is the elusive Uncertainty Principle that many people have trouble understanding, and rightly so I don't know how Heisenberg dreamt this theory up! But it's one of my favourite theory's out there and it's one that I live by and so I felt like I should explain it to you. Although sometimes I wish I didn't live by it because I can never be decisive on any choice I make. I even had trouble deciding whether I should of made this post first or on another theory!
