Even identical twins who are genetically identical cannot think the same way. If all members seem to agree, it is not peace, but rather oppression, which, as history shows, has lead often to war. War is primarily defined as the opposite of peace. During war, death and destruction, the total entropy of the system, is acclimating exponentially. However, not all that comes out of waris bad.
Many scientific discoveries, technological advancements and social breakthroughs have been coaxed out of wartime. For example, during World War I, women were taking over jobs that their husbands formerly worked at. If peace and war are opposites, then during peace, a society would not make progress. For example, if a student that attended every class and was attentive and studious, ended up getting the same score as a student that never showed up to class, the hard-working individual would not be inclined to put in the effort anymore.
Peace by definition is a utopian ideal, one that can not ideally be achieved. Despite humanity craving and wanting peace, it is not backed scientifically or logically. There is always going to be competition because there will always be someone that has something better. There will always be chaos in the world because it is not possible to make people agree on things.
However unattainable peace may seem, it does not mean we should stop trying. Go out there and be kind to someone today. Add a little positive chaos to the entropy of this chaotic world. Stanley Cup playoffs: History repeats itself, kind of. Five rules that every fantasy sports league should follow to get the most out of their experience.
Listen: Awareness needed for those with hearing impairment. A coherent, integrated approach was crucial for implementation. Funding must drive cohesion rather than increase fragmentation. She also commended Sweden and Sri Lanka for their intention to hold a pledging conference on sustaining peace. Oh Joon Republic of Korea , President of the Economic and Social Council, said that while Sustainable Development Goal 16 on peaceful and inclusive societies was relevant to the peacebuilding agenda, sustaining peace was critical for achieving all the Goals.
As conflict and unrest could reverse development gains, everyone must work together to help countries emerging from conflict implement commitments through support to address immediate challenges, build institutions and develop human resources. In that regard, close collaboration between the Council and the Commission was imperative, he said, noting that moving forward the Council would benefit from lessons from the Commission.
Macharia Kamau Kenya , Chair of the Peacebuilding Commission, agreed that all the Sustainable Development Goals were important in conflict-affected countries, not just Goal 16, and many were related to violent conflict. Goal 10 on inequalities, Goal 8 on jobs and Goals 12, 14 and 15 on natural resource management were also critically important to addressing the root causes of conflict. The Commission should support the General Assembly, Council and the High-Level Political Forum in their follow-up and review of the Agenda, focusing on progress in conflict-affected countries.
Furthermore, the Council and the Commission should hold a regular dialogue to promote coherence between the United Nations peace and security efforts and its development, human rights and humanitarian work.
And they could review good practices in addressing the root causes of conflict, preventing it and how the United Nations development system had integrated sustaining peace into its planning frameworks and activities. David Donoghue Ireland , shedding light on the negotiations to develop Goal 16, said among the innovative ideas put forth was the prominence given to the rule of law.
Accountability, transparency and many other factors were also central. The range of items to be covered was extensive. A key to the consensus reached was the focus on issues affecting men and women on the street, such as violence, corruption, bribery, poor governance and lack of transparency, which were wide-spread in many societies and needed to be tackled as a whole. Once they were addressed, consensus would be possible.
Juan Sandoval Mendiolea Mexico stressed the nexus between the Agenda and the United Nations peacebuilding architecture. The Organization should invest in peace and bring development to communities rather than spend 75 per cent of its budget addressing conflict. Sustained commitment was needed to implement all the Sustainable Development Goals.
This is especially helpful for current college grads who want to get their MBA, JD, or other specialty degrees to qualify for high-paying jobs. If you struggle to define balance in your life , this will surely help you.
There's no question about one fact in that e-degrees offer the best work-life balance situation possible. That's primarily because class scheduling is highly flexible, most programs are self-paced, and you can do homework whenever it fits into your work week, assuming you hold a job while you're in school. Universities and colleges can earn high profit margins on e-courses because a vast majority of the classroom sessions are taped and can be viewed at any time.
In short, schools spend much less on e-students than on those who live and matriculate on campus. In general, expect to pay about half the cost of a traditional diploma when you are a remote learner. One thing that's often overlooked when comparing all the differences between traditional and computer-based curricula is the discipline factor. If you intend to opt for an e-degree, make sure you have the self-control to watch every video lesson, take part in live discussions, study for exams, and write papers.
For some, it's far too easy to give in to the temptations of TV, social media, and other distractions when earning a degree from the comfort of home.

Thanks, friends, and family for sticking around. Arthur Bozikas has penned a memoir that is heart-breaking and gutsy, as well as being full of hope and gratitude.
This book is guaranteed to lift up readers and have them believing in the resilience and transcendence of the human spirit, making it a must read for years to come. When reaching adolescence, most teenagers want more freedom, independence and control in their lives. For Arthur, it was the opposite, as he discovered that his lifespan would only last up to adulthood. After becoming an adult, Arthur was waiting for his death.
It was at the eleventh hour, at the age of twenty-one, when Arthur was introduced to a miracle treatment, but only after the damage of iron overload from all the blood transfusion was done to his body. Grateful to be given a chance to survive for a few more years, Arthur decided to do something with his life; to get married, buy a house and also to have children, knowing he had no prospect of any future for himself.
At the age of sixty, Arthur and his wife Helen celebrated their thirty-five-year marriage anniversary. Recently we caught up with Bozikas so we could learn more about this amazing human and very talented writer.
Why was you story Iron Boy one that you felt you needed to share with the world? I promised myself if I made it to the age of 40 years old, I would put it all down in writing. I didn't know it will take me another twenty years to do it? When reading Iron Boy, the book struck me as a story on struggle, but more so about survival and endurance. How has that challenges you faced growing up helped shape you as an individual today especially as it pertains to business and entrepreneurship?
This is the first of its kind worldwide, from the prospective of a patients' point of view and not from a specialist or doctor. I wish I had something like Iron Boy when I was young and very afraid of my prospects! As a professional CEO for over twenty years, the challenges in business is that you need to equip yourself with the right information or you are dead in the water! People with my condition now do have my book to prepare for the future because there is one and it's up to the individual to believe!
Being married for 35 years is a huge accomplishment, what is the secret to your success that you can share with younger couples looking to hopefully have the same success in their marriages?
I think if both couples feel like they can't wait to share a new idea with one another or are not prepared to go anywhere without their partner by their side, then this is the only secret that any younger couples must desire for a successful marriage! These two examples will resolve all arguments that every couples get into a marriage too or later!
From a life lesson perspective what are some of the key points that you hope others can take away from your story 'Iron Boy' and even more so what is something that you hope you leave behind to your children that you hope they can apply to their own lives? My children have been raised to see the person, and not the disability, that they have.
I would like for a life lesson that the world can refer to us as "people first" regardless the disability one has. People with a disability and not disabled people…always put "people" first.
