Why the metric system matters - Matt Anticole
I'm completely comfortable with the metric system despite being from the US and living in Myanmar. I also recognize its clear advantages, like any rational person would.
But, feet and pounds are still intuitive for me because of my primary education. The US will only shift when they refuse to teach USC units to schoolchildren.

Losing a Point for Mocking Opponent's Grunting
Well, in that case, wouldn't topspin or backspin also be a deliberate act that hinders the opposing player?
The ref apparently called hindrance. The USTA defines hindrance as being hindered in playing the point by an opponent's deliberate act. I think one could reasonably argue that the opponent's scream--mocking or not--was a deliberate act that hindered the other player.

Dear Trump Supporters
But he never once mentioned Clinton. He did make a comparison to Sanders, but I'm assuming that's not one of the two "turds" you were talking about.
Also, there was no advocacy to vote one way or the other. The message was clear - do not be fooled by this man and this system. Do not direct your anger towards the ill-defined other in an easy scapegoating attempt to make yourself feel better.
That statement below is the reason why this video, while laudable and beautiful in it's way, was a complete waste of time...
When the first reaction is to compare which one of the two turds stinks more, you've already completely missed the message... = \

Syrian Refugee Camp In Jordan - Vlogbrothers
As someone who works almost daily with refugees and IDPs, as well as the rural poor and generally impoverished, I would like to commend John for his accurate and powerful portrayal of the humanity of these Syrian refugees.
Often, for people in the West, it is hard to understand that these people have agency. They are not helpless victims, they are not mere pawns in someone else's war; they have rich, meaningful lives filled with the same hopes that we all have. And, yes, they are in much more direct contact with the fears that most of us can only imagine. They face harder, tougher situations and decisions than anyone ever should.
They don't need or want your pity. They will take your help, if you give it openly and honestly. But they will also struggle and fight in their own ways, without you or your aid; they will make their lives and the lives of their children as full of love and purpose as any other person.
However tenable their situation, their humanity will remain. You have only to respect that, admire it, stand in awe of it, to have your heart and consciousness expanded.
