Theodore Roosevelt and The River of Doubt
Theodore Roosevelt and The River of doubt.
Theodore was a loved president until he switched parties. He wasn't democratic or republican. In 1913 he lost his first debate and then went on a downward spiral after that. He then got a call to do a speaking ceremony in Argentina South America. He took this chance to get away from his depression and also to see his son Kermit.
Once there he was invited to go on a expecdition of the River of Doubt. People called it that because one man explored it but forgot everything about it. He took the chance because he uses danger physical activity to relieve depression and stress. His son, him and other men went on it.
From the start it went horribly wrong. Bugs and diseases, such as malaria, spreaded like wildfire. The rations of food and survival sources where low because they lost most of them while on the rapids. A man turned murderous and was chased out of camp while being caught stealing food and other supplies. A couple of days later they heard him cry for help but ignored him. Later on Theodore sratched his leg badly and soon got infected to dangerous levels. He became so sick that he couldn't walk. They had to carry him the rest of the way in a canoe and down 6 waterfalls (with other rapids as well).
After the expedition where men died and Theodore sick. They got medical treatment. After he was better and able to walk he returned home but not as healthy as he was and never would be when he first started the expedition.

Facebook threat's
These threat's should be taken seriously if the user fully means it. It should be because it's a threat! He only should be puninshed if he does what he says he's going to do. I say this because if he is just joking it's ok, and what if he is just joking? Then it's harmless. So if he does what he say's punish him then. One of my reason's is that he most likely doesn't mean it. Another is that he didn't do anything to blow the building up, so it's an empty threat.

Feed Readers
From using both of the blogging websites, I prefer google reader because it's easier to use and technorati is complicated to me.
I personally prefer google reader because it has more varieties. While on technorati I couldn't even follow or subscribe to my favorite band's. Also technorati didn't have that many choices in music or entirmtainment.
