Social Science - 27 November 2006

Whites can have blonde, brown, red, and black hair, with differing nose shapes, different eye shapes and other facial features. Different head shapes.

African-Americans have homogeneous hair and eye color with similar facial features, similar nose and mouth shape, and similar head shape.

Asians too have have homogeneous hair and eye color with similar facial features, similar nose and mouth, and eye shapes, and similar head shape.

Why are whites more diverse?

Several years ago, a biology professor said that with technology such as artificial insemination and things like that, man's role in reproduction has basically become obsolete. I was wondering what women think about that. Do you think guys are obsolete? Would you have a problem if guys were removed from the reproductive picture.

Just when you think to yourself, do you think it sounds the same as your own voice when you hear yourself talk? What do you think??

I want to have visitors staying, but what makes the difference between a visitor and a dweller. For instance they get their mail sent here. If they become a dweller do they get ownership rights? This is confusing me. If anyone can advise Id be very grateful. thanks

I am usually interesting in a something but when I found out I am not the best and there's some one better, I feel as if I'm not fit to there and make up excuses like it's not my thing. It's upsets me that in life, I will never be the best in something I do.

I feel guilty all the time. There is a voice in my mind that continually pumps negativity. I once attributed this to my conscience but then I began to think deeply about it. There was a time when I was younger that I operated with no anxiety. I never avoided conflict I ran to it. But now it is starting to make sense. My brother was a jerk so I would kick his azz. One day he hit my sister so I punched him in the gut. My mother told me he could die from the hit and so basically told me I killed him. Then one day I went to take a bath. There was a spider in the tub and I killed it. My mother told me that killing a spider is bad luck and that if the house burned down it was my fault because I brought bad luck to the house. Is this a normal way to treat your kid or is this one of the reasons why I suffer and have suffered from depression and OCD?

A week or so ago i posted this picture for my avatar, it was a suggestion from a friend in order to see how many shallow men there are on this site. It worked, within minutes i was receiving email addresses and comments on my looks rather than my questions. Now men get a lot of stick about being shallow and judging a woman based on looks and sometimes its justified as these men proved.

What surprised me though was the reaction from women, the bitterness and jealousy could be felt for miles, women answering my questions calling me a t.art and only answering my questions in order to insult me. Now lets get this straight, i am quite obvioulsy not the woman in the picture, its a modelling shot. But this woman exists and who are we to decide her personality or intelligence based on her photo. She probably earns thousands of pounds for modelling while you idiots sit at your desks for minimum wage, so who's smarter??

They are a lot of people who are persistant all the time. And usually they achieve what they want. But in the same time by pushing someone else to do what is in his best interest doesn't make him a good person.I'm a wrong? What do you think about his.

I'd like to put together a few calculations to determine "real inflation" over the past 10 years.

When I say "real inflation" i mean what a US family pays for necessities.
These would be:
Food,
Gas,
Heating fuel,
Housing - rent
Housing - home purchase
clothing
Health insurance
Toiletries
Automobiles

Just to do these rough calculations, I'd need figures for the above categories in 1996, 2001 and 2006.
(or if nothing can be found for 2006 then 1995, 2000, 2005)

My premise is that "real inflation" or the actual cost of living for a family far exceeds the figures we hear on the news.

Can you point me to sources for the numbers i need for the above calculations?
Thanks!
