This I Believe by Thomas Mardik

In today's society, there are two topics that most people do not want to discuss. If they are mentioned, they can lead to infinite discussion and meaningless consensus. And just have people champion their views with ruthless passion. Two popular button themes are religion and politics. Though the sensitivity of these topics is well known, Thomas Madik ignores this idea and discusses his religious beliefs in a semi-public way as the subject of the "I believe" article did.

I recently saw a drama that caused a national debate on this topic. Known as "Thomas and Sally", it is talking about the relationship between Thomas Jefferson and his slave, Sally Hemings. There was a protest outside the theater, encouraging not to participate in the show, requesting customers to refund, and no longer supporting the Marin Theater Company.

Do not think that this will put a big burden on art - after your argument Are you satisfied? Does the show include scenes where all of us saw a woman being raped? "

At the beginning of the blog, I talked about one of our most productive presidents, Thomas Jefferson, and what we can learn from his customs. I still believe in learning from history and past success. So today I would like to discuss Thomas Edison, one of the most productive people of the 20th century. Whether you like Edison (his character and ethics are increasingly being questioned in recent years), you must admit that this person's productivity is very high. Edison received 1,093 patents in his lifetime and recorded a record high. What is more wonderful? Almost all the patents he has are closely related to the success of the business. Do you want a sample of the industry that is affected by Edison? Well, he invented the gramophone and started the recorded music industry. It is now worth more than $ 150 billion. After inventing sellable lights, he founded General Electric. He experimented with batteries and portable energy
