In the first stage of brain evolution there was only Instinct.
Animals had very simple brain which allowed them only to eat, fight and breed.
An alligator has only instincts.
Then they were evolved to mammals which have Emotions.
They formed societies and can live in groups and have feelings.
A dog has instincts and emotions.
Then humans came and they posses Logic (not very extended though).
Logic can find the cause of actions and predict their results.
I and you have instincts, emotions and logic.
So if we use our “limited” logic to predict the future what do you think will be the brain feature of the next generation species?

You will feel good for the next six months, and then be gone quick. You get $150,000 from the progressive benefit portion of your life insurance. Check arrives in 10 days. What thoughts are in your head RIGHT NOW?

I've just booked a 6 week course with Polestars in Leeds, has anyone been on their course?

I've wanted to try it for ages, so took the plunge this afternoon and coughed up the £135.00! Quite excited but a little nervous!!

Any experiences, tips would be gratefully received. x

I wish there was one moment,
That everything would just freeze,
So I could think,
What’s going on in my life?
What am I doing wrong?
What do I need to fix?
I wish my brain would just stop,
So I could take a breathe
So I could be free,
So I could think,
And not be afraid of what might happen next.

I'm trying to get my daughter more into reading, but I need some advice on good books for her. She loved Freak the Mighty, so maybe something along that line. She's in 6th grade but probably has about a 10th grade reading level.

A barren world, so lonely and deserted,
the heat of the sun so unimaginable,
the air seems to be made of sand,
unable to see, unable to breathe,
he continues walking,
in hope that he can get to her,
for he knows even though he feels unbearable pain,
the joyous heavenly feeling when he finds her will be worth it,
to him she is worth more than his life,
for he says " what good is life without love",
and "what good is love with out being able to share it with her."
Then She appears before him,
smiling with eyes that seem able to stop time,
he looks at her dazed in ecstacy,
and he asks her " is it you my love",
she does not reply,
he walks to her, trying to embrace her,
but all he embraces is the sand,
cruel are the tricks of the sand,
then he falls down in saddness,
never to rise again,
only to be found by her later,
she, seeing his sad lifeless body weeps,
for she has lost the one person who dearly loved her,
"I hope you can hear me" she pronounces to the sky,

I have an oil painting (still life) that I just love. My mother gave it to me 25 years ago and I am trying to find out some information about the artist. My mother is no longer with us so that isn't a source of info for me.

It is signed "Marie Eccles" with a crude looking circle with lines coming out of the circle. Maybe a sun?

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks much!

"Click on the Innernet, not in the internet", Sri Sathya Sai Baba said like this once. Even after so much of allegations Sai Baba still commands the followership of over 30 million ardently devoted ones... Do you think is this becuse of the Power of Innernet over Internet...?
