CATHOLICISM AND OTHER RELIGIONS ARE APPEALING TO YOUNG PEOPLE

Soon after his election in 2005 Pope Benedict went to Cologne, Germany, for his first World Youth Day and addressed nearly 2.5 million young people. He inaugurated a new World Youth Day tradition of evening eucharistic adoration under the stars at an outdoor field. The theme that year was "We have come to worship Him" in honor of the relics of the three kings that are housed in Cologne's cathedral.

Alcohol and Drug abuse

Between 1992 and 2008, treatment admissions for alcohol and drug substance abuse problems more than doubled in the US for adults 50 and older and will continue to increase as the baby boom generation ages.

Toll Roads

Should states consider toll roads for private infrastructure investment, leading to faster routes for those drivers willing to pay a premium while removing cars from the crowded free routes that motorists are accustomed to driving?

Online Poker

Should the US legalize online poker and other games as a way to generate jobs and tax revenues?
Americans gamble online but they have to use offshore sites that do not benefit the US economically nor provide any protection for the participants. 

Overseas Jobs

Between 2000 and 2009, multinational corporations eliminated 2.9 million jobs in the US and added 2.4 million jobs overseas. Today, many companies have more employees overseas than in the US. 

Mouth Examinations

Examination of your mouth through regular checkups by a dentist can detect signs of heart disease, diabetes, and stress.

Motor vehicle Traffic Fatalities

Motor vehicle traffic fatalities are at the lowest level since 1949 thanks seat belts, air bags, better safety equipment in cars, and efforts to reduce DUIs. 

Red Tape

Short of full online service in starting a business, there are so many confusing state and city laws, fees, taxes, regulations and license requirements that are so costly and time consuming, they are frustrating businesses from creating jobs.

Basketball

After 25 years of the 3-point shot in college basketball, the opposition has been forced to defend the 3-point line as well as the basket and the lane. 

HOAs

Do homeowners' associations, (HOAs), on balance do much more good than harm?

Carpooling

In the 1970s about 25% of Americans who drove to work shared a ride. Today, less than 12% of all drivers carpool. 

Opera

An Opera tells a story through songs. In opera, many different art forms are interrelated such as acting, stage scenery, writing, singing, dancing, instrumental music, costumes, and lighting. In opera, there might be 40-100 instruments, usually not electronic. Opera singers must project their voice without the use of microphones, which can change the tone of their singing. 

Cost of Drugs

In a matter of months, expiring drug patents will dramatically lower the cost of even the world's best selling drugs including Lipitor and Plavix. Between now and 2016, about 255 billion dollars in global annual sales will go off patent in favor of generic versions.

Las Vegas Strip

Smut peddlers, costumed performers, unlicensed vendors, and even much publicized deaths have tarnished the image of the Las Vegas strip as a safe and entertaining venue for tourists, and is threatening the state of Nevada from an economic standpoint. 

Borders

The closing of Borders emphasizes the change in Americans' reading habits from printed books to electronic books, although printed books will still be around in some form or capacity. 

Sex Selection

Is sex selection an abuse of human rights?

Across the world, the sex ratio heavily favors boys. In China, it's 121 boys to 100 girls. The technology of ultrasound and abortion has killed more than 160 million girls in Asia alone. 

Car thefts

Las Vegas is the US city with the most car thefts. Malls and gyms are prime locations where thieves steal for getaway cars, joy rides, and stripping their parts. Older model Acuras and Hondas are typically targeted.

Good advice- lock cars, take valuables, and use alarm systems.

Religion

Are some Americans today identifying less with religion than in the past:
Are there fewer members of congregations, less confidence in religious leaders, and a reluctancy to be included in a specific religion or faith?

Chocolate

Is chocolate good for you?
Yes and No.
Chocolate can lower the risk of heart disease and stroke, but too much can result in weight gain which can strain the heart and cause diabetes. It's best to eat chocolate in moderation and a regular manner.

Commercial Aviation

Is automation contributing to accidents caused by pilot error?
