Iraq War Vets Disabilities Are Being Downgraded
As a disabled veteran who served this country, I was alarmed when reading a news article that stated that Iraq War Veterans disabilities were being downgraded! With all the talk of Support the Troops going around our nation I am reminded once again of the old saying that talk is cheap. According to this news article several soldiers were given a zero per-cent disability rating by the Army who had traumatic brain injury, caused by roadside bombs while assigned in Iraq. This is unbeleivable in this day and age that men who have put it all on the line will soon be seen walking aimlessly down the street as they join the ranks of the homeless.This is an outrage that must be addressed before our veterans wounded in this conflict hit rock bottom!

Issues in Neuroscience: Social Disabilities.
Sort of follows on from Neurodiversity. I define the concept of social disability as how I see it, and talk about my opinions on it. A social disability, in my eyes, is a trait that causes problems due to the society we live in, but if we weren't social animals, and lived alone, wouldn't cause any problem.
Some examples I talk about are:
- Mutism and deafness
- Autism
- Tourette syndrome
- Friedreich's ataxia
Also, what can you do is helping people with social disabilities? But also, how can strange behaviours of a few people affect everyone else around them, or you, personally? Can you help it but to judge others, and do you really mean to cause harm? Bleh, society is complicated!
http://www.youtube.com/itsabrainthing - It's a brain thing, by Dr. Henley. The aim is to fight stigma for brain conditions. One that really got me thinking was the 'addictions' video. Think about how much some of us look down on those with drug and alcohol addictions. Is it really their choice?
