Fri, 10 Feb 2012 18:20:09 +0100 COMMENTARY | A video response from a hurt dad posted on YouTube has gone viral. The video was shot after the dad discovered a disrespectful post left on Facebook by his daughter about how she was treated more like a slave than a child in the home. At the conclusion of the video, the disgruntled Facebook dad takes a 45-caliber handgun and destroys the child's laptop to prove a point. Responses to the video are outrageously supportive, but I can't find one reason to support a father who chooses violence over intelligence when disciplining a child. (Source: Yahoo!

Fri, 30 Sep 2011 23:40:02 +0200 (Reuters) - A elderly woman undergoes therapy in a pool on the premises of the Gerontological Association Costarricense in San Jose September 27, 2011. According to the National Council for the Elderly (Conapan), adults aged 60 and up comprise 9.5 percent of the total population of almost 5 million inhabitants and it is estimated that in the next five years the adult population will grow by 15 percent. The authorities indicate that the Costa Rican population faces an aging problem because of the process of demographic and socioeconomic shifts as well as rapid development of science and technology. According to the U.N., the world population will reach seven billion this year, making the population almost quarter what it was in 1960. Picture taken September 27, 2011.
