Bad attitudes often are a result of excessive stress. Concerns for job security, a sense of a lack in pay they feel they deserve, a sense of being harassed by coworkers or bosses.

Is eating yourself suicide or cannibalism?
That is a hard qusetion to answer. It is both suicide and cannibalism. If you eaty yourself and you didnt mean to kill yourself it would just be cannibalism. But there is one more way that doesnt apply under either of these categories, that's in the sexual way.
whoever thought that this would be a good question is extreamly stupid!! but i will answer it anyway....anaroxic people usually try to stay away from foods with a lot of calories. examples of foods are: apples, carrots, beans, radishes, tea, water, and any diet sodas. some of these foods are called negative calorie food because the human body uses up calories to digest food and if the food takes more calories to digest than are actually in the food so the net gain of calories is negative, i hope next time whoever asked this question will not ask such stupid questions!

How are the Donner party and the Lewis and Clark expedition similar?
Similarities:
-Both were huge expeditions across the continent.
-Both could be considered "risky" - the Lewis and Clark for the fact this was completely uncharted territory, the Donner Party for the fact they had never traveled the "shortcut" route before.
-Both taught a valuable lesson - Lewis and Clark Expedition, mapped the country, the Donner Party for the risks of moving west.
That's all I have, hope it helped!
How many members does the progressive labor party have nationally?
how many members of many members of conservatives dose each party have?
how many members of many members of conservatives dose each party have?
People can be satisfied with what they have, I do not believe that everyone wants or desires much more than what they have achieved. I believe that people at the extremes of wealth and poverty desire or require more either through greed or want.
I have worked in recruitment and social work and have discussed with individuals their aims and asperations. Most people want to remain static but want a change rather than more.
However, I think that the desire for more is what keeps the human race moving forward. We all need somthing to strive for, it may not be monetary, it can be the desire for more knowledge, time, health, etc.

AnswerIn addition to the previous comment, I also think that there is something about wanting to beat "joe neighbor." T.V. advertises new and amazing things everyday. Why wouldn't someone want the newer, faster, better thing? Some people just have it in their head that bigger is better.What did one muffin say to the other?

Why don't generators run themselves?
Generators, despite the name, do not create energy - they merely transfer it from one form to another. For example, a generator might burn gasoline to produce electricity. They do not power themselves because they are devices that run on a different type of energy than they produce - that's what makes them "generators" in the first place, after all.
Think of it like a car. A car burns gasoline to create movement. It doesn't matter how fast the car might be moving when it runs out of gas - it'll sputter to a stop, because it's designed to run on gasoline, not on momentum.
It is much the same with a generator. It's designed to run on its fuel, not on its output. That's the whole point: to convert one type of energy to a different type.
Kuru is a medical condition that affects the brain and nervous system. Kuru is caused by the transmission of abnormally folded prion proteins found in the brain and is infectious. This disease was found in some people of New Guinea who engaged in ritual cannibalism and ate the infected brains of dead people with the condition.
Kuru is related to :-
BSE (Mad Cow disease)
Scrapie
CJD (Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease)
How do you survive a cannibal attack?
== In order to survive a cannibal attack, first you must . . .
1.) Get a weapon
2.) Kill/wound the person
3.) Tie up the cannibal
4.) Call 9-1-1
5.) Get a restraining order from the person that attacked you. == If you are not prone to violence you may also try some forms of cannibal prevention. First, stay out of areas cannibals are known to frequent. If you have to go into one of these areas, be sure to spray yourself with plenty of mosquito repellent. It smells strongly and the cannibal will know you taste bad. This will most likely cause him/her to move onto the next person who comes wandering through. Also, always bring a friend that runs slower than you.
Were the Mohawk people cannibals?
Mohawk is not the real name of that Iroquois tribe, but like most of the names used today it is a derogatory name applied by the enemies of that tribe. Their real name is Kanien'gehaga - People of Flint.
The Narragansetts and Wampanoags to the south-east of the Mohawks called them Mohowaugsuck, meaning eaters of living things (people), from which Mohawk is derived. This was meant as an insult and may have been along the lines of "beware the monsters that live in the north-west" to frighten their own children.
There is no evidence that the Mohawks ever actually ate people, any more than the Wampanoags ate tree bark - the Mohawks called them ratirontaks, meaning "they eat trees". This is the origin of the modern place name Adirondacks.
Each group was simply hurling an insult at the other to reinforce inter-tribal hatred.
