Competition allows conflicting interests to bring out the best products, bring out a leader in a group, OK... BUT:

Competition is rooted in our instincts for food, territory, opposite sex, material possessions and difference (morphology, skin color, language, beliefs...). Look at the biosphere: almost every single species fight for survival, some small percentage find symbiosis. Is there really a hope for peace if our instincts drive us against each others? If our internal wiring recognize threats where there might just be a chance for pacific coexistence? Can we survive as a species? Can we thrive? Can we... evolve?

I've had this dream before, but now I'm starting to have it everyday. It's always the SAME teeth too. My back molar to the left, my front right incisor, one of my bottom teeth. It's always 3. They always crumble when I loose them and I loose them just by wiggling them. Last night was different though because I actually had one tooth growing in place of another one, but not for any of the others. My boyfriend has made appearances in my dreams, so has my grandparents, my sister..and Tyra Banks? It's freaking me out and I sometimes even have a dream within a dream that I wake up and my teeth are still missing. This has led to my chronic brushing of teeth. So what do these funny dreams mean?

..meaning would you be willing to buy a $300 item online for $70 less, or just head out to Best Buy and buy it at full price w/o worrying about the wait or potential freight problems (although usually there aren't any..as you can tell, i want it now!).

Help! I am being sued for custody of my child b/c I give him his Metadate. My ex thinks that he would be fine without it, but my ex hasn't seen him without meds. He does so much better with meds, he can play sports, focus in class, gets MUCH better grades, and is manageable at home. But, my ex is a naturalist who is avidly against pharmaceuticals, and now he wants to take me to court and take my child away.
Can anyone help me prove to him that this drug is safe and necessary? Has anyone else gone through this? I can't put my child through another move of households. :(

Masturbation , teen age bad habits-watching adult websites , enjoying the beauty of girls( sight) and chating with friends unneeded......these things are disturbing me a lot .. I want to have an end for it..How can I forget all these things and concentrate more in my studies..? I am a brilliant and first rank holder in my school life..but these bad habits changed my life totally now.. Now., I am unable to concentrate on my studies...Somedays ., I used to study with compulsion...but the dreams of what I did till( including the good and bad thoughts ) are interveining in my studies .. I am unable to launch my concentration in a single path-Studies..I am feeling very tired and burning head with even a half-an-hour continous study..Before in my school life and all., I used to study a book whole-day continously or whole night continously..where I didnot get such disturbances and tiredness..I want to study as in my school studies..I want to leave all my bad habits. I want to increase memory
