Before making a decision, weigh the cost vs. benefit.

In the story, Country Mouse thinks about what he likes (the benefits), and then he thinks about what he does not like (the costs), and then he makes a decision to stay or go home.

Every day we make choices based on the chance that certain events might occur.

We estimate the probability for the event to occur.

Then we examine the consequence of the event and make a decision.

People and the Effects of Their Decisions

Patrick Daniel "Pat" Tillman- (November 6, 1976 – April

22, 2004) was an American football player who left his professional career and enlisted in the United States Army in June 2002 in the aftermath of the

September 11 attacks. Tillman joined the Army Rangers and served several tours in combat before

he died in the mountains of Afghanistan. At first, the Army

reported that Tillman had been killed by enemy fire. Controversy ensued

when a month later, on May 28, 2004, the Pentagon notified the

Tillman family that he had died as a result of a friendly fire incident

James Francis "Jim" Thorpe (Sac and Fox (Sauk): Wa-Tho-Huk, translated as "Bright Path" May 28, 1888 – March 28, 1953)Jim was an American athlete of Native American and European ancestry. Considered one of the most versatile athletes of modern sports, he won Olympic gold medals for the 1912 pentathlon and decathlon, played American football (collegiate and professional), and also played professional baseball and basketball. He lost his Olympic titles after it was found he was paid for playing two seasons of semi-professional baseball before competing in the Olympics, thus violating the amateurism rules that were then in place. In 1983, 30 years after his death, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) restored his Olympic medals.

Rosa Parks-On December 1, 1955, in Montgomery, Alabama, Parks refused to obey bus driver James F. Blake's order that she give up her seat in the colored section to a white passenger, after the white section was filled. Parks was not the first person to resist bus segregation. Others had taken similar steps, including Irene Morgan in 1946, Sarah Louise Keys in 1955, and the members of the Browder v. Gayle lawsuit (Claudette Colvin, Aurelia Browder, Susie McDonald, and Mary Louise Smith) who were arrested in Montgomery months before Parks. NAACP organizers believed that Parks was the best candidate for seeing through a court challenge after her arrest for civil disobedience in violating Alabama segregation laws, although eventually her case became bogged down in the state courts while the Browder v. Gayle case succeeded.[2][3]

Parks' act of defiance and the Montgomery Bus Boycott became important symbols of the modern Civil Rights Movement. She became an international icon of resistance to racial segregation. She organized and collaborated with civil rights leaders, including Edgar Nixon, president of the local chapter of the NAACP; and Martin Luther King, Jr., a new minister in town who gained national prominence in the civil rights movement.

22 April 1451 – 26 November 1504She and her husband, Ferdinand II of Aragon, brought stability to the kingdoms that became the basis for the political unification of Spain under their grandson, Holy Roman Emperor Charles V. After a struggle to claim her right to the throne, she reorganized the governmental system, brought the crime rate to the lowest it had been in years, and unburdened the kingdom of the enormous debt her brother had left behind. Her reforms and those she made with her husband had an influence that extended well beyond the borders of their united kingdoms. Isabella and Ferdinand are known for completing the Reconquista, ordering conversion or exile of their Muslim and Jewish subjects in the Spanish Inquisition, and for supporting and financing Christopher Columbus's 1492 voyage that led to the opening of the New World. In most instances, she was more influential than her husband.
