  1. Paintball, Nerf or Lasertag can be really funny. Aswell as Frisby Golf. Than we allways have the posibility of Citysurvival or if Posible Survival Weekends in the woods (Building a Basecamp chopping Wood for a fire is a nice workout). Than hmmm use a slackline. Dart or Billiard.
  2. Hello. I would be interessted to get one of the language certifications. What exactly are the differences? How much do they count if one want's to teach abroad in Asia or Latin America?
  3. Hello, I stoped Smoking a year ago, and from the moment I wanted to stop it was quite easy. Ok, it took me a while to want to stop smoking but than i read Allen Carrs Book, and with the last page i had my last smoke. So it worked for me.
  4. There was a recent study done that compared the cost of diabetes lungcancer and other diseases linked to obesity and smoking to the costs for diseases of age. And Alzheimers, dementia, a broken hip and so on and so on did beat the self induced. The cost for obesity smoking and co explode early, but then stop, getting someone to his 90est birthday with serios problems is much more costy. In Numbers Smokers cost 220 000€ Obese 250 000€ and the healthy people 281 000€
  5. It is the responsibility of the strong to take care for the weak. And the stupid are weak. By the way healthy people are the real problem for society. Fat smoling couch potatoes die before they get the real expensive deseases. So actualy if we only want to save money, make smokes cheaper get people to eat more sugar and just let them die when they turn 60.
  6. 6) Most people become politicians because there is money to make. Specialy in a system that forces politicians to raise money corruption is a big problem. 5) Banning soda (what hasn't happened) because you think it is poison is something compleatly different than forbidding sex because there can be a virus. You can still drink soda, it is not gone you just have to get up and refill more often. But than there are some things that we forbid. Heroin, Cocaine and other drugs. Nobody has a problem with that. So why big outrage when the same is done to other drugs?
  7. If you ever played D&D 4e, (the in my opinion best edition for the grown up nerd with not nearly enough time to play) than you know the power system. If not in short, you have at will powers that you can use when ever you want, encounter powers that you can use once per fight, and daily powers that well you can use once a day. So most people tend to save up the strongest daily powers for a later fight, even when the fight is though as hell and it is uncertain that there is a next fight. It's like Worms, saving the sheep for the better shot when actualy you need it now. Playing it save or waiting to long is quite a bad habbit. Sometimes you wait to long to ask a girl out, sometimes you wait to long to ask your boss for more money So, how do you overcome that?
  8. As far as i know soda is not banned but the xlarge unlimited refill things are. So that makes what? Less unlimited? I don't see a reason why people cry about that. There are more obese people than starving people at the moment. And starvation would not be a problem if the western world (Specialy USA and Europe) Wouldn't destroy the marked for african products in africa. There is enough food in the world. The problem is people can't afford it, because they can't sell it, because the us or european produce is cheaper because of subsidies. So by exporting food we are starving people. And than we even kill out old grains that could be used as seed the next year because we mutate it so it becomes impotent. The world is starving because it is good business.
  9. They say you can't run away from your own personal demons, but than nobody said you can't run away of Zombies. i red once that everybody should be able to run for 5 km at every given moment, specialy when your mother in law is chasing you. But I realy don't like running (or biking, but this is about running) and allways prefere to but on my inline skates if i want to go somewhere fast. Than I have allways been a gamer, so when i saw the App Zombie Run I just had to buy it. It's quite simple, the world is done, and only a few survived. You have your own little fortress with some other survivors and have to run missions to gather stuff your town could need. But while you are out there at random there are Zombies trying to hunt you down, and you have to outrun them to bring back your gathered goods. It is quite funny one the 3x1 Minute Sprints can indeed be challenging. And I think it is motivating for people who don't realy like to run but like numbers in your city to grow.
  10. True as most of us did awake and did not found themselfs extinct. But it is a good reminder, that change can happen, every day. And it does for the living. (for everyone who doesn't know where the Quote comes from, I envy you for the oportunity to see the (in my opinion) best Star Trek series (DS9) for the first time.) Aren't most people realy only living dead? Getting up, going to work having the same boring empty routine every day all over again, spiced with some tasteless food? How comes, people see Matrix as dystopian Science Fiction, while they are nothing more than batteries for other peoples? Well, i have been there and i do not know the answers. The road so far. I have been quite a slim teen, with my 63kg on 181cm, who loved pc games, books and his TV (Knight Rider, Mac Gyver and Star Trek been some of my favorites ). So when i went to university, i still loved to play pc-games. Diablo 2, Counter Strike to many beers and smokes made my 63kg some solid 100kg. But is was quite a first year, spend going out drinking and playing. But the 15-20 beers a day don't realy do anything good for you. So i dropped out of university and started to work. And from one day to the other i stopped drinking too, for about a year (lucky me, no withdrawl no problems, it wasn't even hard, just didn't felt the wish to drink alcohol). At least i stoped drinking alcohol, but my addiction was Coke, 2-4l a day. Bloody mistake. But lets make a list. Rayen the first 30 years On the plus side: Job I had a training in a publishing house I had a training as a medic Travel I have been to Uganda Mexico England and Scotland, Spain, Hungary, Italy Germany (as a european quite a focus on europe) China Live was quite good to me. On the down side Job I wasn't that happy And it is getting harder to become a job with a good pay. Health I was obese with 130 kg I was smoking to much (in my 12 years of smoking i blew 16000€ into the air, while poisioning myself, in a good fond that money would have been a solid gournd for investments and if i would have saved all my smoking money for the rest of my working live into a fond I would have a nice age with 650 000€ on the side without ever missing something) Relationship Yep the last 5 years (is it plus or minus?) So there are some plus and some minus and i can't say that i lived anything else than a good life beeing able to afford what ever I wanted. But hey than you get older. Going out with young friends leaves you wasted for a week, smoking while still fun when socialicing is taking its toll, and while working you realice, damned, there is to few free time. And than you have to decide if you hang in the ropes or cut loose and jump. So i jumped. Rayen the years from 31 Well, they just started. This year. And did you know, 30 is the new 18? so 31 is only 19, and there are still posibilitys out there to have fun see the world and find the one women to spend the next few years with. On the I did list I stoped smoking (easy with Allen Carrs Book) I started to watch every movie and TV Series in english to train my english (and to save some money) I stoped drinking coke (ok sometimes there is the red bull cola but only sometimes) I started to eat more clean paleo (Hell I love steak ) and lost 30 kg (97 something at the moment) but fell of the wagon and struggeling to come back I startet with yayog and had fun, but struggeling at the moment too. (Ill and now at the restart got some serios headake from my visit at the dentist) I enrolled for university to become a teacher On the to do list Health Get back on Track with sports and paleo and down to 80 something, but than more muscles and more kg would be ok too... Living healthy on a tight budget with €5 for meals a day. Doing Yayog to an end Restart with martial arts or yoga (don't know now) or start with weight training. Job Become a teacher Personal life Find a regular group of people to play all that ameritrash games i buy and love. Find a regular group of people to play P&P RPG Find the right woman Stop wasting time on the internet, specially frequent visits on uninteressting forums or facebook, limiting that to one or two times a day. Crafting Plug a vandalism Swich to my PC and work it into my desk. Build a Deskcase for a PC To lay new flooring into my flat To get the damned lights to work in my flat (i am sick of the dark inside, but still like it outside ) Travel To travel to Japan. China Vietnam Thailand Somewhere in Southamerica (don't know where at the moment) Canada And maybe the USA.(gotta stop watching ciminal minds if i want to go there ) So thats it for now. And a final Quote from Ds9 "I am Rayen. I'm very much alive and I intend to stay that way."
