EVOLUTIONARY PSYCHOLOGY.

Evolutionary psychology (EP) is an approach within psychology that examines psychological traits - such as memory, perception, or language - from a modern evolutionary perspective. It seems to explain how many human psychological traits are evolved adaptations, that is, the functional products of natural selection or sexual selection. Adaptationist thinking about physiological mechanisms, such as the heart, lungs and immune system, is common in evolutionary biology. Evolutionary psychology applies the same thinking to psychology, arguing that the mind has a modular structure similar to that of the body with different modules having adapted to serve different functions. Evolutionary psychologists argue that much of human behavior is the output of psychological adaptations that evolved to solve recurrent problems in human ancestral environments.

Other adaptations, according to EP, might include the abilities to infer others' emotions, to discern kin from non-kin, to identify and prefer healthier mates to cooperate with others and so on. Consistent with the theory of natural selection, evolutionary psychology see organisms as often in conflict with others of their species, including mates and relatives. For example, mother mammals and their young offspring sometimes struggle over weaning, which benefits the mother more than the child. Evolutionary psychology emphasizes the importance of kin selection and reciprocity in allowing for non-selfish social traits such as altruism to arise.

Like chimps and bonobos, humans have subtle and flexible social instincts, allowing them to form extended families, lifelong friendships and political alliances. In studies testing theoretical predictions, evolutionary psychologists have made impressive findings on topics such as infanticide, intelligence, beauty, and parental investment.

Evolutionary psychologists hold that behaviors or traits that occur universally in all cultures are good candidates for evolutionary adaptations. Evolved psychology adaptations ( such as the ability to learn a language ) interact with cultural inputs to produce specific behaviors (e.g. the specific language learned ). Innate gender differences, such as greater adult strength and aggression among men, are explained as adaptations that reflect the different reproductive strategies of males and females. Evolutionary psychologist contrast their approach to what they term the "standard social science model", according to which the mind is a general-purpose cognition duice shaped almost entirely by culture. The influence of adaptationist approaches in psychology has been steadily increasing.

My house where I was married to had no furniture. It has no furnishing. It has no entertainment to lighten up your soul. The days are long for a married stay-home Mom. In order to replenish time other than boring household jobs all around the house, a girl has to have a hobby which she loves.... Let her do something that she enjoys, she will be spirit-free lifted and she will worship you more as long as she knows her boundaries...

Ling Ling.

Hi, my name is Ling Ling. I'm going to turn 42 in April 22nd. I am a Taurian. My chinese zodiac is a cork. I love to eat Kentucky Fried Chicken, Pizza Hut, and also MacDonalds. I also like to eat at Nasi Kandar or any other chinese restaurant near my home. I always prefer Homecook meals but during occasions when everybody is hectic and wiped out, we go outside and eat.

There are four in my family right now. I am married and I have two children. They are both boys, aged 12 and 9 this year. My husband is staying with my children and he takes care of their school days. My mother-in-law, Nanny Mcphee cooks around the house and attend to the children's needs. I'm sorry I couldn't stay with them as I had to take care of my father , who is ill. I also helps my Mom a lot around the house and we always go out together to buy food.

My two boys needed space to grow as the house is very small and the space to grow is very limited. So I have volunteered to relief my space around the house for them to study and play. My two boys are independent and they don't want me around the house and disturb their privacy. I respect their needs and thus my parents agreed to take me in back home. I am now back in hometown with my family. My two boys are happy that they also found their new-found freedom around the house eventhough Nanny Mcphee can be rather strict.

My husband's workplace is very far away from his house and he travels quite a distance to get there. His food supply is limited and his days are jam-packed. His work requires him to be there all the time and always on time in schedule. I respected his duty at work and never troubled him at any cost. He works with the cargo factory and its manufacturers at the port.

He is an average income earner and his allowance I gave to his mother to take care of my two children. I am free from any debt and I am also independent. His mother is quite wealthy and owns a property. She is a vegetarian. My husband is a vegetarian. My two boys are also vegetarian as well. (ps. I'm carnibal - referring to meat )But they do buy a whole chicken that last for a week......

I love my family a lot. I will not forsake them at any cost. I am a lovable mom.Happy Chinese New Year of the Bunny Rabbit 2011!

WHAT DID YOU EAT????


Do you believe that the foods you eat can make your breasts grow? I personally am a little skeptical on this one, as in I don't think that eating a lot of one certain food is going to suddenly turn you into a voluptuous C or D cup, but some people do believe that there is a reason the average bra size for women is on its way up, and doesn't show signs of stopping this upward trend.

Did you know, for example, that Chinese women's average breast size has increased by almost one full cup size over the past ten years, and scientists are wracking their brains trying to figure out why? Many speculate that the increase in Chinese meat and dairy consumption and other "Americanized foods" that can possibly make a woman's breasts grow more is the reason, along with other environmental factors. This theory is especially viable since the Chinese diet used to consist simply of a lot of rice and fish products, which do not really contain estrogenic compounds such as the ones found in the breast enlargement supplements programme.

This theory stems from the fact that the majority of livestock we buy, such as red meats, chicken and other highly consumed meats and other dairy foods in the US are given hormones to make them grow faster, produce more milk and simply be a better product in the end. That is, unless you buy organic. Some theorize that this infusion of hormones in our foods we eat accounts for some of the fact that women's breast are growing bigger over the long haul. I actually just read a story that said that women in Australia's average cup size had grown almost a full cup over the past decade, most likely due to food consumed or some other unattainable or unidentifiable factor, but most likely food or environment related, so there are cases that point to foods and supplements definitely having an impact on the size of the breasts.

Some other foods that may or may not make your breasts grow are foods that contains high amounts of natural estrogens, or phytoestrogens such as pure soy products and other plant life that is characterized by a high phytoestrogen count. These foods include many spices too and whole grain foods and seeds. Some say that eating these types of "vegetarian" foods in high quantities may have a little effect on the growth of your breasts, but if it does, it is norminal at best since it is nearly impossible to sustain the high intake of the phytoestrogens necessary to actually result in permanent breast growth.

But take heart, if in time you have sufficient sleep and sexual intercourse, your breasts will surely grow. It has been heartenly defined that a man's aphrodisiac, his saliva ,has a 10% rate on a breast's growth but scientist has yet to agree that sex does bring about the change in hormone of a woman's body in order to make it fully blown. Still, a woman's attractiveness not only lies in the cup size of her bosom / breasts but it also lies in her skillful hands as well as her innermost beauty that shines out, thus draw a man. Happy Love Making!

How to forget. Glad you asked........

The best thing for getting over someone who doesn't love you is to love yourself more. Try and focus your energy to the future and more positive things or things you can do something about. Time heals all wounds and although you may always have a special place for this person at least you will have more perspective on it after sometime had passed.

TO LOVE MYSELF MORE - buy make-up. Put it on your face. Put it on your hair..!

Too Embarrassed to Ask?

For many women, the area "down there" is a bit of a mystery, and a big reason is that our most personal questions can be hard -- or just too embarrassing -- to ask our doctors. Most people think other people are having more sex than they are. In truth, the only people having a whole lot of sex are those in that dizzying first phase of romantic love when you are literally drugged by your own hormones and just can't keep your hands off each other.

There's an old saying that goes, "Before you get married, put a bead in a big jar everytime you have sex. Soon you will fill the jar. After you get married, take a bead everytime you have sex. You will NEVER empty that jar". Scientifically, the reason this is true is that when you move from the giddy throes of falling in love to the comfy Sunday-morning-with-pancakes-and-the-paper stage of a relationship, a different hormone takes over.

You don't get a rush of adrenaline and other inner opiates that makes you crave a sexual encounter anymore. What you do get is a steady stream of the "bonding" hormone oxytocin. (It's the same one that pumps copiously when a woman is in labor or breastfeeding ) In other words, the neighbors probably aren't doing it any more than you are if you've been together for a while - and that's just fine.

This is the time when we remembers our duties and fulfilled them. A time for spring cleaning, taking out the laundry, doing the lawn, getting the windows cleaned, the curtains washed -- the rush of adrenaline comes in a different form -- in the form of commitment ,bounded by money. Another rush of adrenaline when we suspected that we might be pregnant. I haven't had my period for the last month -- I was kind of late......

Then the rush of adrenalin , when  my husband comes home, is the food ready? Are the children Okay? The tension of being questioned and the hurt of been deprived a trust, on the contrary, it's just a question out of curiosity or even a bribe! Most people don't like to be questioned , but sentimentally , why don't you take a look -- for yourselves -- the table's been set, the baby's not crying, the house is beautifully cleaned!!!! Am I just a freako with an anxious mind or are you that nut who doesn't know how to converse a statement of virtue such as, 'it's good!'~~

An Aphrodisiac for potency?

BLACK LIQUORICE ( CONFECTIONERY )
Liquorice is a confectionery flavoured with the extract of the roots of the Liquorice plant. A wide variety of liquorice sweets are produced around the world. In the U.S., liquorice is called black licorice ( see also spelling differences ) to distinguish it from similar confectionery varieties that are not flavoured with liquorice extract, and commonly manufactured in the form of chewy ropes or tubes. Most popular in the United Kingdom are liquorice allsorts. Dutch and Nordic liquorice characteristically contains ammonium chloride instead of sodium chloride, prominently so in salty liquorice. I personally prefer 'salty liquorice' whatever coloured.

An aphrodisiac is a substance that increases sexual desire. The name comes from Aphrodite, the Greek Goddess of sexuality and love. Throughout history, many foods, drinks, and behaviors have had a reputation for making sex more attainable and / or pleasurable. However, from a historical and scientific standpoint, the alleged results may have been mainly due to mere belief by their users that they would be effective (i.e. the placebo effect ). In particular, Western medical science has no substantiated claims that any particular food increases sexual desire or performance.

DREAM JOB!

Confucius said, "Find a job you enjoy, and you'll never work a day in your life." I'm not sure if that's entirely accurate - even dream jobs can be hard work, but, it does make life much easier when you are doing something you love.

As you can see, dreams come in all shapes and sizes. They are often more attainable than you would think. It's not the number that counts. It matters not how much you're paid, provided you can cover the cost of living in this century. The cost of starting a family, raising children, or even buying a dream house of your own. The first step to take in starting to follow your dream involves deciding what it is you really want to do with your life.

Consider a short-term work experience or an internship as a way to experiment with different positions. You won't need to make a long-term commitment and you will have the opportunity to test the waters with jobs that sound interesting. If you need new skills to accomplish your goals, consider going back to school to get the appropriate training. Then, follow your dreams as best you can........

What is the Cost of having too much Fun?????



Too much fun can be hazardous. Those who love adrenaline rush enjoy roller coasters the most. But for some.......adrenaline rush is too much to handle. In conclusion, you find roller coasters enjoyable because you love the speed, and the adrenalin rush!

Historically and even today, these are people called thrill seekers who like to find ways to shock and excite themselves. Roller coasters were and are a way to defy gravity and speed. In the early days of roller coasters probably the fact that the roller coaster was new helped its popularity. It was something different that gave people a couple minutes of thrill and excitement.

Some people like to give their money to be scared because they feel excited and alive when they get off a roller coaster. Roller coasters took them away from their everyday life for just a couple of seconds and gave them an adventure. The adventure in which today by new ways of building and structuring roller coasters have made them even more popular.

When you enjoy doing something, you are more willing to pay the price for that piece of FUN!
