Is anyone trying to live debt free? I mean really trying. No using credit cards, paying off your house early, etc. I'm not doing it but maybe I should. Is it even possible?

what I am getting at here is what FUNDAMENTALLY attracts/lures/interests someone to "consume" media (e.g. watch a movie, read a book, listen to a podcast).

Would like to know how to meanifully forecast exchange rate in between USD and Indian Rupee, both in abosulte terms and in PPT (purchasing power parity), say for next 30 years.
I know this is little difficult question but any theoretical suggestions to calculate this would be useful. India is growing at 8% annually and is expected to continue at that pace. Inflation rate is around 5.5% in India.

why is it that females are quicker to take offense, quicker to take something out of context and assume - judge - and convict without all the fact's or even a clue, quicker to deny being a lady and even get offended by it, yet they are also quicker to become nastier and more vulgar than any male yet refuse to admit it even to themself's ?

Critical Thinking Question ........so please give me your own answer........


Here we talks about emotions as being a universal human phenomenon. Motivation and emotion are the components of human experience that are an intrinsic part of daily life, and they cannot be seperated. Motivation refers to the forces, both inner and outer, that energize and direct human actions, such as hunger and thirst. Sexual motivations are also a powerful influence on behavior. There is a variety of social or learned sorces of motivation, including needs to affiliate with others and to explore one's surroundings. Also emotions serve as an energizing and motivating function. Emotions are multidimensional, comprising physiological arousel, subjective feeling states, cognitive interpretation of events, and observable manifestations in behavior. Emotions influence us in powerful ways, often producing obvious changes in our posture, facial expression, muscle tension, and inner-organ functioning. Some emotions are a liability to be overcome, but also as gifts from God. Emotions are mixed blessings. And effective proclamation of God's truth will involve responding to all levels of need. From dealing constructively with anger I personally see that anger is powerfully motivating and can make the truth come out. I believe anger is an important emotion that everyone has. It helps us be mentally and physically happy after it has passed.

I am doing a critical review on whether face recognition uses a separate perceptual system from object recognition. I have studies showing prosopagnosics having impaired face recognition but normal object recognition (suggesting they are different). I have been trying to find a study to go against this finding but have found nothing.

All i could find is this line from someone’s lecture notes online "Face recognition isn’t special: Actually, prosopagnosics often show impaired recognition ability for non-face objects 'within' a category (e.g., birds, cars, etc).

However, i can't find any study to support this. Anyone have any ideas? I know my Q is very far fetched but I’m desperate I’ve been searching for hours! Thanks

Umm...confused - everyone's opinion appreciated !!!?
just 3 nights before,i told my 3 month crush that i like him & he replied with a "i would have said yes,but i'm not looking for a relationship right now & i like someone else".he was VERY sweet abt it & we spent an hour talking abt life in general.

now,bear in mind that happened at this youth grp we attend & that was actually the last day of school too.so i won't be seeing him at school for 5 weeks.but i will b seeing him during the hols cos my friends are having a cookout thing at my place & he's coming too(generally,we'll be having a lot of hangouts this season).

ok! so,my question is,how should i act around him,now that he & everyone knows.there's nothing to hide.(i'm usually very shy around him & don't talk to him as much as i do with my other friends but after that conversation,how should i act?)my usual self?like hyper & very friendly?

thanks & ppl,i'm 17 so don't tell me 'go around & play with my barbie dolls'...i'm just learning to face certain challenges.hehe :^)

"Hope is a state of mind, not of the world. Hope, in this deep and powerful sense, is not the same as joy that things are going well, or willingness to invest in enterprises that are obviously heading for success, but rather an ability to work for something because it is good." Vaclav Havel

If you believe in Christianity or Islam, then you all live on forever, so if someone kills someone you love, aren't they just them a favour?

I was watching discovery channel and a discussion was brought up about circumcision. I didn't know that women can get circumcized. I find that to be horrible. I know it's a cultural belief for some...but it's horrible to me. What are your thoughts???
