I asked a similar question here, and people referred to other animal species that kill their young:
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AvA7ObLSJrEMKm9FNC1HWCXsy6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20071126224757AAKNi7w

However, the real question is whether or not other members of the Primate family kill their (own) young. I'm sure that we could find some animal species that matches a particular human behavior, but comparing ourselves to other primates seems more appropriate.

FYI - I was originally writing about this story line: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20071127/ap_on_re_us/child_s_remains

I had a dream where i was walking with my ex boyfriend and he grabbed my hand out of the blue and we held hands for a long time and he smiled at me like he did when we first went out. But then we came to a crack in the sidewalk and we let go of eachothers hands until we crossed over the crack. After that we held hands until the dream ended.
Just a stupid dream, or is it symbolic in any way?

If you had some significant money but didn't trust the pound or the dollar..... for fear of both currencies losing value in the near future..... what would likely be the best option to change currency in to.

I don't trust the Yuan..... Chinese currency, solely on the reasonable premise that a strong stable currency can not be depended upon from a Communist regime which had deep rooted corruption issues and little framework of law.

Oh... and I think it helps if the country/currency rules have genuine firepower (the gun is always mightier than the dollar), and preferably resource wealth like oil, minerals ect.

I can't easily see a suitable candidate for a strong currency... oh and I rule the €Euro out because it's an insane currency.... one currency for like 10+ different countries who are often bickering at one another with totally different economies in each country.... it will be torn apart as a currency at some point.

Would you want to feel more mature, and tolerant of others, non prejudice?

I have a problem with acting myself infront of poeple im not really comfortable with, thats thats a very low number of poeple. When i force myself to say something in their presence, it just comes out as meaningless phrases or words that do not really contribute to the conversation. Overall, they come out as words that would not come out of the normal me. What can i do to be more confortable infront of these poeple and just act myself?

I have very vivid dreams that I'm in a relationship. It's always with a very different woman but she always seems very real and very detailed. I am not with anyone in real life. Is it just wish fulfillment? Past life maybe?

"When I ask you to listen to me, and you start giving me advice, you have not done what I asked.When I ask you to listen to me, and you begin telling me why I shouldn’t feel that way, you are trampling on my feelings.When I ask you to listen to me, and you feel you have to do something to solve my problem, you have failed me, strange as that may seem. –From On Listening, by Ralph Broughton, M.D."

Do you agree with this? Do you typically offer advice or only listen? Explain. (I've always given advice, and didn't realize that was different from active listening. How do YOU "only" listen?)

The problem is, I always want to date someone for that sole purpose of giving them physical (sensual) pleasure and not because I actually like them. It is almost an obsession. I HATE to be touched, personally, and it seems difficult to find someone who would be okay with such. What is wrong with me?
