Liquid Ice Energy Drink

Soda, pop, cola, soft drinks: whatever you call them, research shows that their consumption in the last thirty years has increased dramatically, along with their relative health risks. The National Soft Drink Association reports that Americans consumed 54 gallons (or approximately 204 litres) of soft drinks, per person, in 1998, with more than 15 billion gallons sold in 2000. In Canada, soft drink consumption has more than doubled from 55.1 litres per person in 1972, to 113.3 litres in 2001.

In the US, this accounts for more than a quarter of all drinks consumed, and works out to at least one 12-ounce can per day for every man, woman and child, providing more added sugar in a typical 2-year-old toddler's diet than cookies, candies and ice cream combined (February 27, 2007 Washington Post article - "The Amazing Statistics and Dangers of Soda Pop").

According to the Center for Science in the Public Interest, teenage boys and girls drink twice as much soda pop as milk. Twenty years ago, the exact opposite was true. This is important to know, since pop is even worse than pasteurized milk, containing about 10 teaspoons of sugar, 150 calories, and 30 to 55 mg of caffeine.

The high level of energy in childhood also increases the risk of the later development of cancer. Each increase of 250 calories in a child's typical daily diet showing a 20 percent increased risk of calculated death (British Medical Journal February 14, 1998;316:499-503). Add to these a good amount of artificial food colors and sulphites, calories and other harmful additives, and it virtually eliminates any chance of eating a balanced diet.

Obesity is another factor. In 1964, five per cent of children were considered obese, while today, that figure is 20 per cent and rising. The sugar in pop is believed to cause a hormonal response in the body which promotes weight gain, suggested a study in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism. Continuing to drink pop has been found to increase a child's chance of actually becoming obese by 60 per cent (2001 study from the Harvard School of Public Health).

The high-fructose corn syrup in soda is the cheapest, most processed sugar on the market and typically such concentrated amounts will wreck teeth. The previous Washington Post article mentioned a federally funded study of nearly 3,200 Americans aged 9 to 29, conducted between 1971 and 1974, showing this correlation. Numerous other studies have shown the same link throughout the world, from Sweden to Iraq.

There is also a strong association between cola beverage consumption and bone fractures in 14-year-old girls, says a 1994 Harvard study. Those who drank cola were about five times more likely to suffer bone fractures than girls who did not. University of Saskatchewan researchers in 2001 went one step further and stated that these girls may face a LIFE-LONG increased risk for fractures and osteoporosis.

Depressingly, it gets worse. Research from a British university suggests that sodium benzoate, (a common preservative used in large quantities to prevent mold in soft drinks such as Sprite, Diet Pepsi, Coca-Cola, and Dr Pepper), has the ability to switch off vital parts of DNA, eventually leading to diseases such as cirrhosis of the liver and Parkinson's (The Independent May 27, 2007).

It has also been known for years that sodium benzoate can produce benzene (a cancer causing chemical) when mixed with ascorbic acid (vitamin C). Benzene is associated with leukemia and other cancers of the blood (BBC News March 1, 2006, Times Online.co.uk, March 2, 2006).

Still not convinced? How does a diabetes link sound? A June 8, 2004 USA Today article stated that women who drink more than one can of soda a day increased their likelihood of developing type 2 diabetes by 85 percent over those who drank less. This is significant since the number of people with diabetes has almost doubled over the years of 1990 to 2002

These studies show that soda is among the worst possible foods. Their acids and phosphates alter your body's pH levels and inhibit absorption of other nutrients. Let's take a look at some of the major components:

Phosphoric Acid - interferes with the body's ability to use calcium, leading to osteoporosis or softening of the teeth and bones; neutralizes hydrochloric acid in the stomach, which leads to faulty digestion and improper nutrient absorption.
Sugar (up to ten teaspoons a can) - increases insulin levels and leading to high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart disease, diabetes, weight gain, and so on.
Aspartame - a sugar substitute with over 92 different health side effects, including brain tumors, birth defects, diabetes, emotional disorders and epilepsy/seizures.
Caffeine - may cause jitters, insomnia, high blood pressure, irregular heartbeat, elevated blood cholesterol levels, vitamin and mineral depletion, breast lumps, birth defects, and perhaps some forms of cancer.
Coloring agents such as yellow # 5, commonly used in soft drinks, has been linked to attention deficit disorder, hives, asthma, and other allergic reactions in some children.
Tap Water (main ingredient in bottled soft drinks) - has chemicals including chlorine, trihalomethanes, lead, cadmium, and various organic pollutants.

Components Source: Mercola.com, 2003 - The Real Dangers of Soda to You and Your Children.

In terms of proven information, these and many other studies and statistics should be alarming to pop drinkers. A proper diet should have some balance and diversity, and soda pop - the anthisesis of good nutrition - is simply not a part of a balanced diet.

Frequently Asked Questions

QUESTION:
Allergic reaction to "Liquid Ice Energy Drink"?
I posted this here, as few people seem to frequent the Allergies sub-board.

I bought an 8 oz. can of Liquid Ice Energy Drink today. I've had other energy drinks in the past, and never had a problem. About 10 minutes after consuming it, I felt this weird sensation behind my ears/on my neck. It was an icy hot sensation like someone had put Ben Gay all over your neck. Pretty soon, my entire face began to feel uncomfortable. I looked in the rearview mirror, and I realized my entire face was red. I got home and put a cold washcloth over it, but it's still burning/uncomfortably red. Anyone have any suggestions? Know what the difference is in this drink between others?
- ANSWER:
  Wow, that's awful! I've heard that dabbing a little bit of cold milk on a cotton ball and then applying it to your face eases the pain as well as take away some of the redness. I've never tried it, so I can't be positive that it works. You may also try so aloe vera gel, it works when I get a really bad sunburn to relieve pain and some of the redness.
  
  I listed the ingredients of the dirnk below:
  Ingredients: Carbonated Water, Sucrose, Dextrose, Citric Acid, Taurine, Sodium Citrate, Natural flavor, Sodium Benzoate (preservative), Caffeine, Inositol, Potassium Sorbate, Niacin, Calcium Pantothenate, Vitamin B12, Vitamin B6, Ubiquinone (CoQ-10 Enzyme), FD&C Blue #1.
  
  Then compared it with another energy drinks ingredients, (red bull)
  
  Water, sucrose, glucose, sodium citrates, carbon dioxide, taurine, glucuronolactone, caffeine, inositol, niacin, pantothenic acid, vitamin B6, vitamin B12, caramel and riboflavin.
  
  I'm not sure what exactly triggered your reaction, but it may have been the sodium (my guess).
  
  Hope that helps and good luck!

QUESTION:
no rush from energy drinks, will alcohol effect me in the same way?
I am a 15 year old male. i once read that if you don't get a rush from energy drinks, your body has a high caffine tallarence. i once had 4 liquid ice energy drinks in under an hour, another time i had two monster energy drinks and a no fear energy drink in about 3 and a half hours. both times i felt absolutely nothing what so ever. There are also plenty of other times i've had just one energy drink and felt nothing.

So i was woundering if it would be the same case for alcohol, when i grow up, would i need to consume very large amounts of alcohol to get drunk?
- ANSWER:
  Energy drinks are just vitamins (maybe), caffeine (probably) and sugar. It's really not that different from any other soda or candy.
  People who have a decent amount of sugar and caffeine in their diet wont get the "false energy" that people who have a more "pure" diet.
  
  Caffeine is a stimulant and alcohol is a depressant. People who consume a lot of alcohol wont feel the effects of one beer as much as someone who never drank before.
  
  If you do decide to start drinking (when you're old enough) don't assume that it wont affect you because energy drinks don't.

QUESTION:
What type of hookah base liquids should I try?
The other day my friend and I were coming up with what type of liquids we could put in the base of his hookah to smoke with. I came up with the more bizarre ones but he mentioned milk, ice, water, and energy drinks. The ones I came up with were (all as jokes) rubbing alcohol, vegetable oil, consumable alcohol and piss(pee, I don't know if yahoo will censor piss). Which brought me to wonder how would alcohol affect your body when smoked through a hookah and have anyone tried these liquids???
- ANSWER:
  With any addition of other liquids to the base always keep the majority of it water. Not doing so will make the smoke harsh.
  
  Alcohol - Only do a few shots. The fumes will not ignite and the mix will give you a mild alcohol buzz.
  
  Ice - Will cool the smoke more and make the smoke slightly thicker.
  
  Frozen Fruit - Do the same as Ice and add flavor.
  
  Milk - Makes it smoother
  
  Energy Drinks - Will just add flavor
  
  Juice - Orange, Cranberry, etc. will add flavor.
  
  The ones you listed as jokes....don't.
QUESTION:
Calculation of entropy generation of melting ice in water?
I've tried to assist with the following problem, and I ran in to a snag of a non-physical solution:
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AmJgyEgi_Htk.67AP3I2wd3ty6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20100430155116AA6qP9i&show=7#profile-info-hJgPAamXaa
------------------------------
Problem Statement (paraphrased):
A 7.5 gram ice cube initially at -263.15 K is placed in 200 grams of liquid water initially at 293.15 K. The process occurs in a well-insulated container. By how much has the entropy of the cube-water system changed when equilibrium is reached?

Summary of my resulting equations:

Equilibrium Temperature:
Teq = (Tw1*m_w*c_w - (c_i*(Tm - Ti1) + h_f - c_w*Ti1)*m_i)/(c_w*(m_w + m_i))

Change in entropy of system:
∆Ssystem = m_i*(c_i*ln(Tm/Ti1) + h_f/Tm + c_w*ln(Teq/Tm)) - m_w*c_w*ln(Tw1/Teq)
-------------
Record of my data:
Ti1:=263.15 K; Tm:=273.15 K; Tw1:=293.15 K;
m_i:=7.5 grams; m_w:=200 grams;
c_i := 2.22 J/gram-K; c_w := 4.184 J/gram-K; h_f:= 334.9 J/gram;
---------------
Results:
Definite answer for equilibrium temperature (yes, I am sure the ice has fully melted for this set of data)
Teq = 288.9 Kelvin

Erroneous value for entropy change:
∆Ssystem = -0.4022 Joules/Kelvin

I know it is erroneous, because this should be a possible process, but mathematics indicate entropy is destroyed (indicating it is impossible)

---------------------
When I consulted the software Engineering Equation Solver, I got a similar result for Teq, but my entropy generation result was far more believable.

Teq = 289.4 K
∆Ssystem = 0.6803 Joules/Kelvin
--------------------------
Why does making the calorically perfect assumption of ice and water indicate this is an impossible process?

EES can comprehend the variation of specific heats and look up actual values to indicate that it really is a possible process, much as anyone who drinks a glass of ice water would believe.
--------------------
My questions:
Do I not fully understand entropy quantitatively as well as I thought?
Do I need to consider volume change in some way, shape or form?...
Even if I use enthalpy and isobaric specific heats (AND for a solid and liquid system for which it shouldn't make too much difference) to model the energy balance and heat exchanges?
The system decreases in entropy according to these mathematics, and the system is well-insulated.

A well-insulated system cannot exchange any entropy with the surroundings, because there is no heat transfer to the surroundings.
If the entropy of the system decreased and no entropy exchange occured with the surroundings...

THEN, the only logical explaination is that entropy was somehow destroyed.

As per the entropy principle:
If mathematics indicate entropy is conserved, it is a reversible process.

If mathematics indicate entropy is generated, it is an irreversible process.

If mathematics indicate entropy is destroyed, it is an impossible process.
I know this is a possible process, because it makes intuitive sense to us that it would exist.

BUT why does the calorically perfect assumption make the mathematics indicate destruction of entropy?

What am I forgetting to include?
What is EES including that I am not?
-----------------
@ Pearlsawme:

You've made the assumption that the process is reversible by your entropy method of finding Teq.

This is INVALID, because it is impossible that ice spontaneously forms in an insulated container of 16 C water.
--------------------------
@Arantheo

Good try, but using Celsius is invalid for the entropy equation.

You can only use Celsius for temperature differences. NOT temperature ratios or dividing by a temperature. Kelvin must be used for the entropy equations.

ALSO, you changed the given data. That is illegal.
Also Arantheo, why did you change the sign of the entropy change of the initially water portion of the system?

The water portion of the system releases heat to the ice, why would its entropy increase?
- ANSWER:
  The entropy of a thermally isolated system increases in any irreversible process and is unaltered in a reversible process. This is the principle of increasing entropy. If in addition to being thermally isolated the system is mechanically isolated from the surroundings so no work can be done, by the first law, the internal energy remains constant too. The statement refers to net entropy changes, it does not say that the entropy of part of the system cannot go down, if heat flows from body A to body B at a lower temperature, both of which are contained in aan adiabatic enclosure ∆S A is then negative but :
  ∆S =∆SA (+) ∆SB will still, by the entropy increasing principle ,be positive.
  making the calorically perfect assumption seems to be acceptable.You should check out your entropy generation result,
  Q1 + Q2 +Q3 +Q4 = 0
  7.5 •2.22•[0-(-10)] +7.5•333 +7.5•4.2 (te-0) +200•4.2• (te-20)= 0
  871.5 te -14136.0 =0
  te= 16.2°C => Te= 16.2+273.15
  Te=289.4K about the same value
  ∆S[-10→ 0] +∆S [fusion]+ ∆S [0→Te] +∆S [20→Te]>0
  @gintable :using Celsius is invalid for the entropy equation ,I didn´t intend to make it confusing.My data can be slightly different yet the result cannot be that different.
  - We don´t need to worry about the sign, ln( a/b ) = - ln(b/a) ,a Again :
  if heat flows from body A to body B at a lower temperature, both of which are contained in an adiabatic enclosure ∆S A is then negative but :
  ∆S =∆SA (+) ∆SB As entropy is additive I prefer this way to represent the changes from initial to final states:
  200•(4.184) •ln(289.4/293.15) < 0 ,for initial portion of liquid water
  my figure for total entropy change doesn´t agree with your answer
  ∆S = Σ∆Si
  7.5•2.22•ln(289.4/263.15) +(7.5•334.9)/273.15 +7.5•4.2•ln(289.4/273,15) + 200•4.2•ln(289.4/293.15) >0 in J per degree, it can never be negative ,after all the process goes only in the direction of increasing entropy
  The process is irreversible and there would be inconsistency between the the physical meaning and the state property entropy if ∆S <0 ;
  I can´t detect a conceptual mistake in your equations

QUESTION:
I have no energy or appetite in the summer?
Where I live the temperature can get up to 35C (95F) in the shade. I have lived in the same area most of my life, although I did move, so this is my first summer without air conditioning and therefore I have no energy... Since I currently do not have air condition, my room is usually between 26-30C (80-85F), sometimes higher. I feel like I have no energy during the day (even though I sleep 8-9 hours a day), and sometimes a little dizzy. I thought it might be somewhat due to dehydration. However, I do drink 6-8 cups of liquids (mostly water) a day. Also, I get headaches. Furthermore, I barely have any appetite, but I really do not want to lose any more weight, as I already am quite slim.
This is my first year that this has happened to me. I was fine all along until it got really hot outside. I keep some windows open, and sometimes have a fan going. Otherwise, I'm not sure what else to do. Although, I do find that when I find a way to cool off like eat something cold or go swimming I have energy for a little while, until I heat up again. But I'm barely hungry to eat a bowl of ice cream nor do I have the time to go swimming every day. It really sucks not having energy, especially since I'm supposed to be preparing for two music exams, which are in less than two weeks.

Any suggestions or ideas would be appreciated. Thanks.

ANSWER:
6-8 cups of water is not nearly enough in such a hot climate! Aim for 10 or more cups each day. You probably don't have energy because you don't have an appetite and thus are not eating enough. Food = energy! Heat always kills my appetite so that is probably why you don't have an appetite -- because of the heat! My recommendation would be to eat even though you may not be hungry. Try eating cold foods like frozen grapes, carrot sticks, fruit and yogurt smoothies, ice cream, cold turkey sandwiches, etc. Make sure you drink your water!

QUESTION:
Chemistry- molar heat of fusion?
The molar heat of fusion of water is 6.01 kJ/mol. how much heat energy is required to melt one ice cube in a soft drink to form liquid water at 0 degrees Celsius, if the ice cube has a mass of 18.9 g?

ANSWER:
using the molar mass of water, find moles
18.9 g H2O @ 1 mole H2O / 18.01 grams = 1.049 moles of water

1.049 moles of water @ 6.01 kJ/mol = 6.307 kJ
your answer, rounded to 3 sig figs, would be
6.31 kJ

QUESTION:
Please help me change!?
I am a 5 foot 5 and seriously overweight. I have hypothyroidism and polycystic ovarian syndrome. I want to lose an extreme amount of weight. My long term goals are to be between 120 and 130. my weight jumps about 10 pounds every week. I take my medication faithfully and I just need help. I HATE veggies except for raw spinach, lettuce, raw carrots, celery. I like most fruits. If I have to eat a salad for the rest of my life thats fine. I do like to drink protein shakes(homemade with skim milk, bananas, peanut butter, ice, and GNC powder) in the morning. I thought about starting a raw food diet but include alittle meat like turkey and chicken breast, and help me eat veggies. I don't like to eat alot of meat.
I need help. I want to change and be healthy and feel good in my skin.

So can anyone tell me the food to eat? or a program to follow.
I am always tired and have not energy so I started to use a liquid B complex and it isn't helping
Im going to start using my game system the Wii and Wii fit plus and a jillian micheals fitness game

ANSWER:
I'm going to go straight to the point. Eat 5 or 6 small meals a day instead of 3 large ones. Go to your local park and do some exercises, eg. jogging, pushups, situps. You don't have to do a million of them. 30 minutes of slow jogging, 10 pushups, 20 situps each day will do just fine. You can take a rest or two on the weekend. AND MAKE SURE YOU REALLY DO IT. You don't necessarily have to join a gym in order to lose weight. There are other far better alternatives out there. Now you tell me, would you rather work out in a gym where there's nothing but equipment around you or go to a park and exercise breathe in the fresh air and look at the beautiful flora at the same time? Your pick. I know mine. Don't come up with excuses like "Oh I can't make it because I've got other commitments or I'm feeling abit lazy today." NO EXCUSES WHATSOEVER. If you really want to achieve your goal, you have to be able to go that extra mile and not come up with lame excuses. Be true to yourself. Your goal is just ahead of you.You think you're seriously overweight and I understand that you are taking medication but seriously, 30 minutes of slow and consistent jogging at a park is not that hard. I'm not asking you to run like The Flash at the speed of light. Remember, it all depends on you. YOU CAN DO IT. YOU DENIFITELY CAN. Look in the mirror and envision yourself looking fit and healthy. Never be disheartened because while there's a single breath in you, there's always hope. Be careful of people who tell you you're okay the way you are. If you don't feel good in your own skin, who the hell are they to tell you you're okay? Eat lots of wholegrains instead of white bread, forget about your soda drinks and limit your alcohol intake. MAKE SURE YOU DRINK PLENTY OF WATER. Have a slice of pizza every once in a while, even two. Just make sure you stick to your routine of eating right and exercising. You can't lose weight with a half-assed purpose. You have to really go all out and do it. You have the power to change your body and be a happy and healthy individual. Good luck to you mate.

QUESTION:
Do YOU think that I'm a healthy eater?
Well, I'm sure that you've seen tons of these questions, but this is what I usually eat throughout the day:

- Breakfast:
Liquid Egg Whites, Whole Wheat Toast w/ tbsp. of peanut butter, Banana, and a glass of milk.

- Snack:
I freeze Fiber 1 Yogurt and add a little bit of whipped cream on top. (tastes really good, and is a better substitute for ice cream). I also eat one of those prepackaged packs of almonds.

- Lunch:
Oscar Meyer Deli Fresh Slices, 1/2 slice of Sargento Swiss Cheese, Baby Spinach Leaves, Whole Wheat Bread with a serving of Campbells Healthy Request soup (I drain out the broth because it adds lots of sodium that I don't need)

- Snack:
Large Fuji Apple with Sargento String Cheese

- Dinner:
I don't really eat 'dinner', since my mom works late and often doesn't have time to cook, so I'll probably have a bowl of Kashi golean cereal and 1% milk and cinnamon sprinkled on top. It satisfies me because it has lots of fiber and protein in it.

Does that sound good? Should I adjust anything? We have a lot of fruit in the house, and I eat it. At least I'm eating fruit and not cookies/cake/etc.

I don't starve myself, and I feel really full by the end of the day. I also have tons of energy to exercise. I also don't drink any soda at all, and I avoid junk food as much as possible.
Actually, Eric, I add only about a tbsp. of whipped cream, and according to the whipped cream can, that only contains ~17 calories since the serving size is 25 calories.

ANSWER:
That actually sounds like an extremely balanced, well thought out diet. Congratulations, and good for you.

The ONLY thing I would change is the whipped cream on top of the yogurt, since it is high in fats. And that's only if I HAD to choose something to change. However, it sounds like it works perfectly into your total daily allowance, so don't even worry about that.

QUESTION:
This is my report on the hydrosphere does it sound correct?
ok i just to know if it makes scene and doesnt sound incorrect please tell me if it does or if it is ok and please give me more ideas what more information i can put and btw its not done yet i still have a other page to do. So please tell me all you ideas thank you!
ok here it is!!!!

The hydrosphere describes the combined mass of water found on, under, and over the surface of
the planet .The hydrosphere can also be called the “water sphere”. The earth’s oceans contains
97% of water in the hydrosphere, which is mostly salt water. Ice caps have a little less than 2%
of water found on earth. Even though that is a small amount of water it can have a great
impact on are environment if it melted, it can cause the sea level to rise.
This can demolish coastal cities, dislocate millions of people, and destroy freshwater systems
and habitats. Water beneath the surface is the next largest store of water.
By volume ground water and soil water make up about .5% of all water. There is a difference
between ground water and soil water, soil water is water that is held in the pore spaces between
soil partials, usually the pores fill up after a rain storm. On the other hand ground water is found
where earth minerals are saturated though the year. Both soil and ground water are very
important because , soil water is used for plants and ground water is used for drinking water.
The hydrologic cycle, or water cycle, is the cycling of water though the earth system.
It’s not only a water cycle it’s also the cycle of energy. Evaporation is the phase of a liquid into
vapor. Evaporation is an important way of transferring energy between the surface and air. The
energy used to evaporate water is latent energy, the water molecules the water undergoes the
phase of evaporation. Most of the water that evaporates from the ocean mostly goes back to
the ocean. Some water is transported over the land before it is precipitated out. When water
vapor condenses back to a liquid it releases latent heat, which it is turned into heat and warms the
surrounding area.

ANSWER:
Its the best I ever read but the ice cap part doesn't make a good deal
The Ice melting wont rise the ocean water its like ....try puting a huge ice cube in a jar of water and mark the level before it start melting (and not before placing it) and after melting
Any way its the best a triple "AAA+"

I don't know about you, but i can't wait for the future !!!!!!!
great answers people, bravo.....

ANSWER:
Not sure why we need the list, but yes, of course I'm concerned about the future. By the way, the vast majority of the things on your list don't have to be made using fossil fuels. The list would have made more sense (and been a lot shorter) if it had only included stuff that could ONLY be made from fossil fuels.

ANSWER:
Looks like you got a study guide in class, dont know the answers, and are too lazy to look it up yourself. Sad thing is, you could have used a dictionary or your text to find all the answers in less time than it took you to type all that in.

QUESTION:
What would make a good conclusion for my paper? Ideas/suggestions?
Here's my paper, its unfinished and im just missing that POW at the end, so any ideas or suggestions would be awesome. Thank you!

“Are you all set?” a warm voice asks. I take a look at my parents and see their tired eyes are filled with worry. My mother plants an affectionate kiss on my pale cheek before I give them both one last hug. I nod to the smiling woman dressed in floral scrubs to which the warm voice belongs. She gracefully rolls me out of the calm room as I wave one last goodbye to my parents. I know it wont be long until I see them again, an hour at the most. But this goodbye had nothing to do with time and it wasn’t just any other farewell. I knew the next time I would see them, things would be different. I would be different. As soon as I am taken out of the room and out of my parent’s sight, I can feel a warm tear streaming down my cheek. For the first time, I’m afraid. After the long and thorough x-rays, after the hundreds of questions asked by several unfamiliar people, and even after the countless needles which penetrated my arms and hands, I had not felt fear until this moment. Before I know it, my bed is being rolled into a room filled with expressionless surgeons, blindingly bright lights, and shiny silver objects. As soon as I get into to the room, masked figures swarm around me like I’m the turkey at thanksgiving. One draws a line across my foot, another rubs a brown liquid all over my leg and foot as another hooks up an IV; a tall man dressed in blue places a mask over my face as he tells me in a reassuring voice: “You should be asleep by the time I get to one; ten, nine, eight, sev-”

I wake up in the same room I was before, feeling tired and groggy, but thankful to feel no pain. I glance across my body, wrapped in a warm white blanket, to notice a few iodine-stained toes sticking out of a carefully crafted cast covering my elevated foot and leg. I find my parents at the side of my bed, staring at me with obvious relief. Even though it was only foot surgery, I could tell all they were thinking was: “she made it out alive!” I glance across my body, wrapped in a warm white blanket, to notice a few iodine-stained toes sticking out of a carefully crafted cast covering my elevated foot and leg. After eating a free cup of cherry jello and drinking a much needed glass of water, it was time to leave the hospital. As I made it out of bed, it hit me. I wouldn’t be able to walk on my right foot for six weeks, and wouldn’t be free from a cast for more than two months. Goodbye summer soccer and goodbye independence; hello pain killers, ice packs, and elevators. My life had been changed for what I thought would only be a couple of months, but little did I know that this experience would change my life forever.

After four days of recovery, it was time to go back to school. Welcomed with piles of homework and little sympathy, I was in constant pain. The medicine given to me for pain did little other than make it nearly impossible to stay awake in class. In addition, getting to and from class took so much energy. Rarely receiving help from fellow peers, it shocked me how oblivious and careless people could be. I wasn’t asking for special treatment, but I knew that the way I was being treated was wrong. After a few weeks on crutches, I made a promise to myself that I would try to make a difference, even if it was as little as opening the door for someone who was injured. Beyond helping injured people, I decided I would just do simple good deeds for anyone. Whether it be helping them with a math problem, picking up a dropped pile of books, or even asking someone how they are doing. I immediately pursued my promise and continued to do simple yet meaningful things for others.

I realized that before having had this experience, I was just like all those other people who were oblivious to helping others. I didn’t care. However, my surgery not only helped to correct my feet, but also changed my attitude into a more positive and caring one.
It's not a college application essay, its a rough draft for my college writing class.

ANSWER:

QUESTION:
What will it take to wake people up?
Trillion dollar spending plans, multibillion dollar bailouts, and now...here it comes. Higher taxes.

Oh yeah, I've heard the Obama hype about all the "tax cuts" that the middle class folks are gonna get. But that's all it is...hype!

"WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama is sending his Treasury secretary and budget director to Capitol Hill on Tuesday to defend his proposed tax increases, which are being met with misgivings by both Republicans and Democrats in Congress.

Lawmakers in both parties question Obama's call to reduce high-income earners' tax deductions for the interest on their house payments and for charitable contributions. Also drawing fire is his proposal to start taxing industries on their greenhouse gas pollution — a move sure to raise consumers' electric rates."

Now for those who forget the many things made from oil - and oil refineries will fall under this new tax increase proposal - let us take a minute and review. These products are made from oil. So...not only will we pay higer taxes for fuel, both gas for our cars and heating oil, but when we go shopping, we will also pay higer prices for the following products, because those increased taxes to the manufacturers will be passed along to us...

Obamas Budget Director , Peter Orszag, had this to say:

"Orszag has acknowledged that the energy proposal would increase costs for consumers, but he argues that the vast majority of consumers will get tax breaks elsewhere in Obama's budget package."

Really! I wonder...just how many tax breaks for us working stiffs does this spendulous bill have?

How f@cked up does this whole thing have to get, before people wake up to how badly we are going to get screwed?

ANSWER:
First of all, it would be nice if you cleaned your mouth up a bit here. Second, you stated, "Oh yeah, I've heard the Obama hype about all the "tax cuts" that the middle class folks are gonna get. But that's all it is...hype!" How do you know it's all hype when it isn't ready yet to happen? Ever heard of and practiced wait and see what happens? You are putting the horse before the buggy.

INTEL and IBM
