Sergei Rachmaninoff's is briefly mentioned as bipolar in this article. The source cited is a dead link. From where was this information taken?
Small bits and pieces of the bible do not dictate how one should be a "christian" the WHOLE book does. Read the book and stories from cover to cover every last word and take notes and then take a week to just sit and think about what you read and then speak on what the bible says and does not say. You've based your religion off of a bunch of random scriptures that you googled or heard from the next so called christian.... I'm so tired of all these bandwagon christian people who swear they have studied the bible and probably only know John 3:16 and then all the other verses they swear condemn others to hell. PLEASE FILL YOURSELF WITH REAL KNOWLEDGE FOR YOUR SAKE. GOODBYE :)
I have wanted to since my brother started to play. When i was in middle school a whole bunch of my friends tried to get the school to make a girls football team but the principle said"we dont have the money" yea right! We even said that we would use the boys football
jersey. Later to find out that they thought we wouldnt win any of the games. THATS CRAP! Im in high school now i am thinking about joining watch out boys here i come!
There is an actual business that was established to demonstrate the correlation between music & math. This business was founded by a former band director and math educator in 2013. Since that time, scores of musicians and math students, many of whom are the same individual, have affirmed that either of these disciplines can be mastered so long as one is mastered. Music & Math Masters Studio (Woodway, Texas) now deals with motivating and training clients, ages 3 and up, how to play any musical instrument, solve any math problem efficiently, and sing any genre vocally in addition to providing professional audio and video recording services. As a retired musician and mathematician of more than 30 years, may I suggest that you begin your research by studying the various professionals who have made their life's goal or career based on uniting both music and math.
So in the end does this all tie back to Quanta? What if we were able to actually be aware of every single neuron in our mind? Would that amplify our power as human beings or is that just some fairy tail?
My memory problem is very specific in that i get word blind on the same names over and over again. I've had this difficulty forever. Especially when trying to remember the names of celebs. It's always the same celebs i can't recall.
Only yesterday for instance, I couldn't remember the name of a particular celeb and someone told me their name. Yet less than 2 minutes later and i couldn't recall that very name again. This problem can also carry over to place names and names of things, though not common things. Generally more obscure stuff, but still which i should know because i have a good knowledge of the subject matter. But when i get a particular word blindness it will always be the same words that i difficulty with. They just don't seem to stick no matter how many times I'm told them.
I am 22 years old residing in India, Bangalore
Since my childhood as i can remember i have been facing this problem particularly in English other languages doesn't bother me much... It's this frustration i hve bn going through since school days that i can read, write and even speak fluently when im alone.... But the same doesn't go well around with ppl..i forget words and i stress words more than i usually do, it really kills me Everytime
I commit mistakes very often which makes me feel like a loser, on the contrary back home nothing stops me from speaking fluently
Im awestruck at what's happening with me
Y can't i do it what i easily do at home
Plz help me out to overcome this problem also educate me if this is some kind of oral disease
I will be greatly indebted to u
Thanks for your post. It was a while ago, but I had the same thing.
I placed 8 cups of food at each station:
1. mashed up beans 2. Nacho Cheese Sauce 3. Torn Bits of Tortilla 4. Fat Free Yogurt 5. Torn bits of Toast 6. Butter
7. Strawberry Jelly 8. Broken Pretzels
Made a new data table for the students to record their test results of the 8 food items, and had the students glue it over the former on page 5 of the handout.
Data table on page 6 - the students were able to use the information from data table on page 5 to show + or - for the food items consumed in the break room by each suspect.
I told the students at the end of the lab that I tested the evidence and the results were..... then they simply matched up to their findings and they were able to easily determine the culprit.
This is how the lab made sense to me.
I also find this info Very Helpful...as well as Comforting ! I too sometimes need a bit of time to Retrieve names and details regarding When an event occurred......basically I do feel that my recall with regard to names and chronology of events is poor....and I do not think it is particularly "Age" related.......so I am just trying to pay more attention....but do not yet have an effective "remedy" !!! Just good to know it is very common!!....and not an indicator of Alzheimers!! ....I hope!!!
Your comment brought me to tears because I've been feeling so emotionally broken about my problem. But your comment made me realize that this is not a permanent problem and I will get through this. I believe anyone going through this problem will get through it. Changing the way in which I think also helps me to keep on. I'm so thankful you made this comment because it spoke to me. God bless you.
Each activity has Teacher Notes which provide learning goals (i.e. learning objectives). These Teacher Notes also provide suggestions for implementation and background biology.
Do these lesson have learning objectives listed some where?
You know what else is transmitted? STD's
What are you talking about? Your comment is ridiculous. The author is just sharing her experience with different cultures. Your being arrogant and ridiculous...
I would say that one of the principal differences between the two is that Buddhists see the world of sensual pleasure as something to be avoided, as dukkah, while the Taoist seeks to be in harmony with nature, including sensual pleasure. As a practical matter though in the East one could be comfortable saying that they are Taoist, Buddhist and Confucianist all at the same time.
Even in the Zen tradition there is seen this rejection of the body, as in the story of Bodhidharma where his first follower waits for years to be taught by him and is standing out in the snow and in exasperation demands to know when he can expect to be his student. He is told " when the snow is red" and with that he cuts off his arm and waves it around making the snow red.
It is hard to say which is more altruistic. It is kind of like bragging about how much humility your faith has. It can't be done.
I have tried everything to fix my right eye histo spot is pretty large. I went to a nutrion doctor and he put my on tuna pills and changed my diet . I dont eat bread and all that sugar which now my eye has improved the crooked lines are more straight my central vision is much better so happy with the improvement. I hope maybe this will help someone.
This is just saying that Americans are stupid. I think that the title, Culture Shaping our Perspective, is a cover up for, Americans are Stupid and Need to Think More. Horrible reading...
Thank you very much for sharing this great activity and card decks. I am grateful.
I would suggest you ask your doctor to do another karotype blood test to be sure
Thank you for your helpful comments and suggestions.

A teacher has posted helpful advice which I fear you may not see since his/her comment is at the bottom of this comment page. Here it is:
I just completed part II of this lab with my freshmen biology students. I recommend proofing the yeast a few days before working the experiment with students. You need to heat up warm water (35 C) and add a little sugar and yeast. Use the same proportions as listed in the procedures. If you see a significant amount of foam produced, the yeast is alive and will likely perform for your experiment.
Sometimes the yeast we buy is dead - that's why the author suggests using newer yeast.
Also I found it helpful to spend some time the day before the experiment explaining the procedure to my students. Even then it has a lot of moving parts and kids who daydream get very confused about what they are supposed to be doing. Just a FYI.
We welcome your comments and thank those of you who have contributed,

This is wht I am currently going through. I tried to go vegetarian but then i wasnt moving stools at all so today I added back chicken to get some fats to see if I could hve a natural bowel movement. This is so painful it sucks so much.
hello,
I am so sorry to hear about your condition.
I totally believe it has a huge impact on all aspects of life.
My husband also has CNV in one eye and is currently undergoing treatment.
I didn't understand from your message if you are getting treated for the CNV.
Are you taking the injections ?
This seems to be very helpful to treat CNV that is not related to age related maculopathy.
Also did you receive orientation from a low vision specialist ?
I understand there are options to assist people experiencing such condition.
May I ask where are you from ?
I red that in US it was developed a kind of bionic glasses that in some cases allow even to drive again.
Of course, it all depends on your specific details, but there may be solutions.
When my husband first received this diagnosis we both got totally scared, but we cannot give up on living.
Especially that nowadays there are so many supporting technologies.
And maybe sometime not very far in the future even stem cells retinal regeneration can be offered to patients.
I know it's difficult, but maybe with the help of a psychologist or the support of an association you can overpass this phase.
We also plan to have a child and the future can be scary during the dark hours of the night.
I know this very well because I suffered of panic attacks and anxiety.
In my case, the psychologist did miracles with me.
But I know the nights are the worse.
Try starting with small steps, get as much information as possible about treatment and/or low vision aid - I didn't understand exactly the cause of vision deterioration in the good eye, but this needs to be checked by the eye doctor.
After this you will see you'll be able to think about the future again. Some adjustment may be needed, but we are adaptable, we need to be.
My husband is already profoundly deaf and now has also this eye issue. And even so we don't give up.
Trying to live our lives the best we can and take the most out of the available technology.
stay strong and do not give up on the future !
Very Good Work, Deep And Incisive
Spelling, grammatical and structure error does not reduce the substance of he paper. The cardinal objective is that knowledge has been passed! Thanks a lot
I am manic and do not do depression...the last time I was depressed my son died of a methadone and Xanax over dose back in 2003 Oct. 9 the same date my daughter was born on so there is both good an bad associated with that date...anyway I recently had a migraine headache for 4 months in an attempt to end the migraine I was given 2 steroids I was already on 1 steroid for my nose. This combination made me HYPERmanic sorta like supercharged mania with nitro injection...as in 10 X or more mania....I will probably never not be manic. I am a big boy and I can handle mania as long as I can get some sleep I am good...the rest of the world may not like it but exactly do I give a fat rat's ass...fuck no...yep that's a lil touch of mania right there....anyway I may be an anomaly but I do not do depression...I do a shit ton load of anger and a shit ton load of Spirituality and I would argue with the Pope cause he don't know shit anyway. So why not argue with him...I am following The Middle Way but as far a religions I am Gnostic...I die for 30+ minutes some 23 years ago and I will never fear death again...HELL is a lie created by Ha Satan...don't fall for it...everyONE gets to Heaven or they get recycled to Earth, that is called the wheel of 84. Anyway if you want to contact me send an email to my eddress. In the Light of The Lord we see and feel only LOVE may The Light of The Creator make bright your Path.
Namaste'
