I have heard that anal is the most probable way to get aids because of damage to the rectum and colon during sex and oral was the least common for the opposite reason.

I have post traumatic stress syndrome from a reletively nasty childhood. That was years and years ago, but I can't stop dwelling. I need some kind of closure, and want to go to therapy, but what would they do? I don't like surprises and want some insight before I go . . .
Also, how do you know when you find the right therapist? I had one once, it didn't work out. She made me super uncomfortable. Please give me an idea of what to expect.

For a school project I have to research Photographics memories. I have read a lot on the internet so far and a few books. So far, some people say and have proof of people with photographic memories. But, others say its impossible and that these supposed people with "Photographic memories" are just frauds and they use memory techniques.

I was wondering what everyone else thinks. Also, if i could get an answer from an expert.

What I want to know is "Do photographic memories exist?". Please could you also point me in the direction of a few sites about it. Also, my other question is "Can you develop your own photographic memory?". Explain.

Thanks, Daniel

My wife went out to pay some bills and go shopping with my sister in law today. they went to the mall.... well after shopping for a bit my wife grabbed her purse and went to the restroom. the only problym is that when she left the restroom she left her purse. ok heres where my question comes in.. some one picked up her purse and took off with it. so everything we had money wise is gone. flat broke no big deal i can make more money....
social security cards gone... no big deal can get new ones.
drivers licence gone .. same there.
keys same here.
but there was one thing that was irriplacible. she had a 1981 half dollar in her purse that her dad gave her when he addopted her in her purse. well i was collecting change and there was another 1981 half sitting there. i told her that it was the one that her dad gave her and that i picked it up yesterday when my 1 year old spilt her purse. she was so happy and excited that she still had it...

Is this wrong? it means so much to her???

I'm thinking about going under hypnosis to help me with...ahem....out-of-the-box sexual fantasies because they're really becomming a problem with me and I need to be repulsed by them to resist having my thoughts dwell in them all the time.
