Research like Batman

So you're Batman and you just got a lead on a major investigation and you need to know his/her's next move. You need information and the best way to get information for anything is to research.
Cool place to research...am I right?
1. Know your topic. Be specific. If your going after a mob it would be a waste of time to research each member of the mob being only a one person. It would be smart to zero in on the leader( or leaders) of this mob. You could also be doing a research article on food and zero in on chicken. It's the simple rule of quality over quantity.
2. Use reliable resources. Although many people criticize Wikipedia for not being reliable the truth is that it has administrators who check many of the articles everyday so that the articles STAY up to date. Now people may say that there aren't enough of them to monitor each article everyday but not many people have a real drive to change Wikipedia articles to be inaccurate. Most published work in books are extremely reliable(as it takes a lot of effort to publish a book) just make sure it's up to date(no longer than 5 maybe 10 years old.)
3. Keep a research journal. Write down EVERYTHING that you:
A. Haven't read, heard, or seen before.
B. Important facts, methods, etc.
C. Your thoughts and conclusions made on the topic.
Remember to keep it organized with bullet points, lists, etc. Keep this journal as a reference guide to whatever your planning on doing because without reference research really isn't worth anything.

Wake up like Batman

Waking up like Batman, really? The beginning to often determines the end, so you might as well start it right, and the end of Batman's days is putting an end to crime, pretty good ending right? So why not start your day like Batman...........
Batman waking up from a dream about Catwoman.

1. Sleep well. It's always important to sleep well to wake up great. Read the Sleep like Batman article for more information.
2. Wake up, get out of bed, do one hundred push-ups. One hundred push-ups? Yes one hundred push-ups, it's not as hard as you think and it'll really get your blood pumping and even make you look better throughout the day.
3. Eat breakfast. This is probably the most important part of waking up like Batman. Breakfast is no doubt the most important meal of the day(believe it because it's true). It sort of balances you through out the day, so random moments of fatigue or hunger will be eliminated, and remember to drink your water. For more information read the Eat like Batman article.
4. Groom yourself. Brush your teeth, then comb your hair, and then dress yourself. You'll feel better about yourself, and feel even more awake. I'll probably write an article about how to do it like batman later.
5. Last but not least, clean your room. Sure Alfred probably cleans Batman's room but if Alfred went on a vacation(as if) for a week I'm sure Batman would clean his room in the mourning. A clean room represents an organized person and you'll feel it too. Then you'll be ready to beat up criminals, climb mountains, party like a rock star, go to school, or go to work, like Batman.
