Social Science - 4 January 2007

I had a call recently wanting to know what kind of things are looked for during a home study. This lady is really trying to pull her life together and will have a home visit sometime soon. She was wondering if every kid had to have there own dresser, etc. If beds had to be on frames for if they could be on the floor? Any information would be helpful!!
Thank you!!

There's a science fair coming up, and I have 2 ideas:
-How music affects plants(with growth)
and -Optical Illusions
But I feel those are too common. Can anyone tell me which idea is better and suggest any other ideas to me?

Please.

Will you give me big, easy signs on attraction and non-attraction, for highschool girls.

This is not a lame question, there is a girl I talk to , and I don't know what she is saying. She is really shy.

Any help on what to look for?

ps. she usually folds her hands in a light fist under her chin when I talk to her, while standing. ?

As a black college student in a predominatly white town, I've experienced what I believe is racism. Examples, having to wait to be helped after a white women is helped even though I was at the counter first, cashiers putting my cash on the counter even though I have my hand out.

I know that some people just go around looking for racism, but I do believe that racism is an issue that still needs to be addressed even in this society.

What about you, have you experienced racism?

At two separate place where I am seeking employment, they asked me to take a personality test. No biggie. But instead of just the personality trait answers I was expecting, there were also analogies and actual math questions. Were they testing my personality or my intelligence?

I am doing a science project in school, and i was wondering whether laughter or any other psychologically pleasing emotion, can actually help you heal faster.
If you find any information please state your sources.

I consider myself a mellow guy who almost always has a good temperment. I was wondering though, why is it guys are expected to be brash and egomaniacal in society? The "boys will be boys" and "I'm a guy and that's just how we are" excuses seem lost on me. NO, you don't have to respond in a violent manner when someone calls you a mean name. NO, you don't have to 'prove' your masculinity by owning guns or bragging about sexual exploits. It's a consciencious CHOICE! You can CHOOSE to at least control your anger instead of letting it control you! Are there any other regular guys out there who think this way too?

I've always had difficulty sleeping and never seem to get a good night's sleep. Last night I dreamt a weird hairy autistic man came up to me and put his forehead against mine and did something to my frontal lobe. He reminded me of Iron John. I ended up having a great night's sleep and woke up happy and refreshed after only 5 hours sleep.

New years has already passed and I still have no idea about any resolutions. I'm in highschool and everything seems to be going pretty well. I do have a hard time talking to cute boys sometimes, and I procrastinate on my schoolwork. However, these are some problems I have that won't be very easily fixed. I know I have other faults like accepting criticism and saying sorry, but I dunno. Any ideas??

This is by far, my BIGGEST FLAW!!! I just graduated from college, I'm taking a year off, and I'll be starting law school in August. I think I'm a smart girl, and my grades are pretty good. But, I am absolutely positive that if I didn't procrastinate so much, I would be getting nearly all A's in my classes!!! I do my work, but never as early and as much as I had planned to do. Then I somehow always end up being on the border of an A and B, and I'm typically given the B. Also, keep in mind that I worked about 20-25 hours/week during college and even now, so this take some of my time and makes me a bit tired when I wanna actually study.

Someone, please help!!! Get this...I procrastinate sooo much, that I post-poned my LSAT twice, and when I did take it, my score was low. Now I'm studying again to re-take it! I can't go through law school by doing the same thing.

I beg of you.......PLEASE HELP!!!

Why do you think some people feel a need to remove their clothes while they poopoo? Is it an animalistic calling?
