I consider my self honest but of course I did lie before, I don’t know any body who has never lied before!
What makes us label some people liars, is it because they are not very good at lying or is it because they lie more frequently than us?
I would appreciate your opinions.Thank you

Right or Wrong Patients DR ordered to pay child support

gynaecologist in Venice has been ordered to pay child maintenance to a patient who had an unwanted pregnancy following the failure of a sterilisation operation.

He has been ordered to pay £8,000 in court costs, with the balance as compensation for psychological stress suffered and maintaining the child during his school years.

The patient,

And, what are your feelings about euthanasia. Are you for it? Against it? Why?

I have a severe fear of throwing up and getting stomach flues. If someone in my family even says they have a bad stomach ache, then I start shaking and avoid them like crazy because it makes me so afriad. I hate living with this. I've researched this and it's called emetiphobia I think, and I've tried tharipists but it didn't help at all. I feel so alone! Does anybody else share this fear? Does anybody have a way to overcome this?

...if you were in a room on your own and not expecting anyone, THEN, someone just walks in and you look at them - AND IT IS YOU! Wearing the exact clothes and looking very concerned when he sees YOU.

Obviously you don't have a twin brother. So please, how would you feel? What would you say? What would you do?

Please give me your honest reaction (if you could imagine it pretty well) and in good detail.

I had a partner who thought that crying and getting almost hysterical is a weakness. I've never seen him cry, or get choked up, or give any real display of sentiments. He says because he is strong. So is showing your sentiments a sign of weakness?

I always want attention on me and I feel like being a dictator and I admire some rulers like Napoleon. I just want to be a king or something and make the world respect me and know who I am. I get frustrated at jokes not even directed at me. I snap at anyone when I get mad. I want to hurt people whenever I get mad and I throw things or slam things when I'm mad. I have a lot of friends, acutally. I talk a lot some days and am happy and energetic and then others I am quiet and calm, and almost depressed. On those days I hate the world. On the happy days, I talk to everyone and everyone is my friend. I have always viewed love as pathetic and God knows why. I would feel like I lost a battle if I kissed a girl or held hands with her in public. I want to beat people up if I see people holding hands or kissing. I have had some friends that are girls, so I'm not jealous. I can't even say I love my parents, and they do nothing bad to me. Am I bipolar or do I have a control problem?

I have two sisters. My older sister & I don't get along. My younger sister & I have always gotten along and been very close. For the last 4 years, they have lived in San Fran and my little sister has worked for my older sister as her nanny/housekeeper. Recently, my younger sister decided to move to Seattle to pursue a degree at Univ. of Wash. When she got here, she got depressed and wanted to go back to Cali. Both my sisters have a history of mental illness (older sister-depression, younger sister-anxiety). Now neither of them will talk to me, because they blame me for this whole thing. I'm left here wondering what the heck I did wrong. I expect this from my older sister, but not from my younger sister. I think she needs to seek some professional help to deal with her anxiety, but she refuses and now won't talk to me. What should I do? I feel so helpless.

japan, the world's most egalitarian society [thanks to gen macarthur], has the highest life expectancy, 82.2

the usa, the world's most unegalitarian society, has life expectancy of only 77.5, and 30th ranking [and falling],

DESPITE SPENDING AS MUCH ON HEALTH AS THE REST OF THE WORLD

[in 1970, when american society was much more equal, it ranked 12th in life expectancy]

i suggest that the high cost of health in the usa is because unlimited fortunes has pushed health providers to pump health prices astronomically

the figures mean that inequality is killing us off 5 years before our egalitarian time, with stress and violence

in the 1970s [at the end of the midcentury 'great compression' of incomes-range], when usa ranked 12th in life expectancy, the top 500 ceo's got 'only' 28x as much as the average - now it is 369x the average - costing every one of 300 million americans 5 years of life, on average - 15 billion years of life

what do we think of this?
