Example 1 - Angry Wife Uses Scissors on Naked Husband!

What do you think of when you see a headline like this? The real story is different than headline might lead you to believe. My wife is a medical professional, but she still likes to cut my hair at home. She cuts my hair as well as most barbers I have tried. One day, as I was preparing to get into shower, she noticed that haircut from day before was not up to her usual high standards, which made her a little upset. She grabbed a pair of scissors to trim that one spot so that it would blend in with rest. That's all there is to real story. This example clearly illustrates how a headline can be true, and yet very misleading. Headlines like this are a common tabloid tactic.

Example 2 - Only 50 Percent Chance For The Sun To Rise Tomorrow!

Would this headline get your attention? A few people might use twisted logic to tell you such a thing could be true. They say any event has a 50 percent chance of happening and a 50 percent chance of not happening. They might say it with such certainty that some people believe it without hesitation. The sun has been rising for at least thousands of years and any idea of sun not rising tomorrow is totally absurd. Some people might use twisted logic to influence you, so be careful about believing everything you read or hear before you check it out for yourself.

The Hardest Part Is Getting Started

Written by Allan Wilson

The theme and name for this article was taken from a story someone told me about space travel.

You see when it comes to getting a rocket into space hardest part is in Lift Off and breaking free of earth's gravity.

This is usually most anxious time for all involved. Countless hours and many people have been working behind scenes to get this rocket into space.

Finally tense moments of count down begins. 10... 9... 8... and so on until off it goes and announcement is made "We Have Lift Off!"

Then struggle begins for rocket to get off ground. This rocket could have a journey, which will last many years in space, yet most of power and fuel used will be in just getting started.

As it struggles to leave earth's atmosphere tanks of fuel are burned up and discarded before it reaches first vital point of its journey - space.

Then something amazing happens. There is no more gravity. No more huge burst of energy and fuel needed. The steering of craft becomes much easier and everyone back home in control center breath a huge sigh of relief.

The hardest part is over - rocket is in space.

Sure there is still work to be done. However compared to beginning everything now almost runs in automatic.
