Will we grow a new body part? Or will it be an evolution in how our societal behavioral systems function?

The US limits the amount of sugar being imported into the country while allowing domestic prices for sugar to be more than twice as high as the world market price. In addtion, 70,000 to 10,000 jobs were lost from 1997 to 2003 because companies that use sugar as an input relocated to other countries to escape the high domestic sugar prices. Sugar is better grown in other countries and produced at a cheaper price. It costs 3 billion to 8 billion dollars to irrigate the Everglades to produce sugar which is paid for by tax dollars. Why did the US ever have these quotas put in the first place?

My ex wife and ex girlfriend are friends and seem to have nothing better to do than sit around and bag on me to any and everyone within earshot. I live in a small community and I know I shouldnt let it bother me but, it does. If they want to bag on me for things I did wrong, fine. I could handle that. However they take something that has an ounce of truth and completely distort it to make it 10x worse than what the true story is. I know, my true friends and more intelligent, grounded people will takt their gossiping with a grain of salt however, it is still getting to me. They are both bigtime victim personalities so everything is my fault (or another ex) that has ever happened to them. So, any concrete advice as to not let this bother you?

You know how people always say oh you're racist or prejudice if you say that or believe it, but stereotyping does have substance and some truth to it, which a lot of it is ignorance, but just like there are cultures more prone to certain diseases, they have some truth. If you carry it out to an extreme though and close your mind and just believe it without a chance then you are ignorant.

It seems like nothing other than my FRIEND interests me anymore! And, I can't concentrate! Every time that I try, everything gets kind of blury, its not that I'm sick, I do it on purpose, its like, I don't want to concentrate, so blurring everything has become a reflex! And, I have become very irritable! I'm depressed if that might have anything to do with it... Anyway, I just need to know if something is wrong with me! And, please, take this seriously!

Yeah I read this topic about How women are less smarter than men, their aliby...IQ scores, To be honest I think it also have to do with opportunities, Not IQ scores. Why is it that women had barely any rights in the past and they have already catched up with us? How about it being 57 percent of women are the population in college right now? The fact that now that women have rights They are taking advantage of opportunities. I know my mom is much smarter than my dad...easily. She's also younger than him. I know most women are a little emotional but honestly I know much more intelligent women than guys....I know i'm gonna get beat up by the guys but I gotta tell the truth....I am a complete moron and my little 16 year old sister is smarter than me. I'm 23 years old lol. She's already read 6 of my psychology books and I only read 3.

You know the types.. men who think because a person is a woman they are some kind of goddess who can do no wrong and should have their butt kissed all day. OR.. men who lose their identity and opinions when dealing with women and just go along with whatever they say.

I think its pathetic and demeaning for a man to behave this way. They put women above men.

What do women here think? And if you are one of these men.. what is your problem?

I have an example; some of my relatives are worry worts and were real crazy about the cell phone radiation brain cancer thing. When the results were coming out that you were very much unlikely to get brain cancer from your cell phone they still wouldn't believe it and said, "oh that's not true. they don't know what they are talking about."

Can someone please explain why some people are like this?

Each dream is a little different but basicly the same where even tho I can't see the full tornado I know it's there & coming right at me, I'm useally in an UN-SAFE place like a trailer or a closet that isn't closed all the way (part of a wall is missing & opened to the outside) In the dream I'm trying to get everyone to seek shelter,Or listen at least listen to my warnings, sometimes only a few listen & take the threat a little serious, & everyone else just goes on about there business, but most times, no one takes me seriously or every-one seems un bothered/not worried at all. In the dreams I have a feeling of fear,real danger, & Along with knowing I have no control of the storm/tornado, that feeling is empower more by no one listening to me or taking me seriously that they need to get shelter.
My question is.. Why do I keep having these type of tornado dreams?What is my sub-consinous trying to tell me?
(I am disabled, don't work,haven't in 9 years, nor have more then 2 friends)

Success is counted sweetest
By those who ne'er succeed.
To comprehend a nectar
Requires sorest need.
Not one of all the purple host
Who took the flag to-day
Can tell the definition,
So clear, of victory!

As he, defeated, dying,
On whose forbidden ear
The distant strains of triumph
Burst agonized and clear!

QUESTIONS:


1.What do 1-4 suggest about the circumstances in which people care most about success

2.According to the speaker in the poem, who appreciates success most? Why might their appreciation of success be greater than others?

i know that even teenagers and even older people do so. ...

so basically, my question is why people suck their thumbs. and if you see it as ''a pacifier that never falls'', i can change my question to ''why do we even NEED a pacifier?''. :)

is it somekind of lack of self-belief?

thank you in advance.

Last night I dreamt that I started getting pain on my bottom jaw, and then realized there was blood everywhere on my gums, and that my teeth were loose and about to fall out. I ran to my parents asking for help, and they said I would be fine, but I wasn't. I was trying to hold my teeth in my mouth, but one came out. I looked at my top teeth and they were decaying. I ran to find a phone but found it hard to speak since I was trying to hold my teeth in my mouth and prevent them from falling out. It seemed that a new tooth kept on getting loose.
Finally I arrive in a dentist's office and see my grandpa in the waiting room reading a newspaper. A tooth in the back of my mouth comes out. I take it out and it's brown, I hand it to him and tell him that I am, in fact, in trouble.
