DIALOGUE

Mom: Good morning, Nicholas. It's time for school. Come on, get out of bed! Jessica's already up and dressed.

Nicholas: Good morning, mom.

Mom: Let's check the weather out today. It's looking a bit cloudy. Looks like it's gonna rain. So, we should take our umbrellas. The trees are blowing side to side, it means it's a little windy but still a lovely morning. Go to the bathroom and brush your teeth, then get dressed and come downstairs to get some breakfast.

Nicholas: Okay, mom.

Dad: What are we going to have for breakfast?

Mom: We're going to have bagel with eggs, bacon and cream cheese this morning and strawberry blueberry smoothie.

Jessica: Perfect! Can I make the smoothie?

Mom: Yeah, sure! You need frozen strawberries, blueberries, almond milk and Greek yogurt.

Jessica: It sounds yummy! Shall I also put some bananas?

Mom: No, we should leave the banana out of this recipe to allow the flavors of the berries to shine. Grab the blender and add almond milk first, then toss in the strawberries, blueberries and Greek yogurt. Blend it until smooth. You can add some cinnamon, too.

Jessica: It looks nice and thick and it tastes delicious!

Mom: The egg bagel sandwiches are ready, too. I've also added tomatoes and cucumbers.

Nicholas: We are missing the main ingredient, the ketchup.

Dad: That is a yummy egg bagel sandwich! It's so filling! Now that we had breakfast, I guess we better get going. It looks like it's getting nice out.

Mom: That's right! I thought it would rain.

  Transcript: When I was a kid, I had zero (0) Jewish friends not because I hated Jews but because Jews don't want to live with us. And, us, Arabs , we don't want to live with Jews. In my country, Israel , there is segregation . Arabs live in one place and Jews live in another. We don't go to school together, we don't make friends and we rarely interact . This is segregation and that's why I'm angry. Segregation is a problem not just in my country, but in every country. In London , one of the most diverse cities in the world is actually quite segregated. If you look at the map of London, the Whites live in this part, the Muslims live in another part and the Blacks live in another part. The people are diverse, but they live separately . In the US, entire neighborhoods are dominated by one ethnic class. Baltimore, Washington is 60% Black and Nebraska is 88% White. This segregation is no one's fault . We, humans gravitate to people that share ou...

Cryonics, does Korea think it’s ethical?

Cryonics is the practice or technique of deep-freezing the bodies of people who have just died, in the hope that scientific advances may allow them to be revived in the future. Video Transcript Just last month, a husband asked CryoAsia, a bio-freezing technology company, to freeze the body of his wife who died of cancer. This is the second case of frozen humans in Korea after a son had his mother who had passed away in her 80s frozen and preserved last year. The preservation period is 100 years which currently costs about 86,000 USD. CryoAsia explained that even if the preserved body is thawed in the future, it is extremely unlikely that the subjects will wake up. But the calls still continue regardless, from those who consider cryonics as their only remaining option. The husband also expressed that after suddenly having to part with his wife, he was struggling but cryonics came as a strand of hope and a great comfort.  The first Korean cryonics applicant had also told...
