Is the nearest ocean to the amazon rain forest the pacific?

No. The most distant source of the Amazon River is a glacial stream on a snowcapped mountain peak in the Peruvian Andes. The Amazon River flows from this source to its mouth, where it empties into the Atlantic Ocean. The Amazon Rain Forest grows on either side of the Amazon River and its many tributaries, but does not come in contact with the Pacific Ocean because of the Andes mountain range.

How much sunlight does an average Earth day receive?

Every place on earth averages 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of darkness. Each pole which is the farthest away from the equator receives an equal amount, but it comes in bunches of six month periods due to the angle of inclination which is 28.5 degrees. The only place where the 12 hour daylight and 12 hour darkness is constant is at the equator and from the Tropic of Cancer going north and the Tropic of Capricorn going south the days and nights begin to stretch and shrink through the seasons until we reach that six month day and six month night at the poles. Hence, Tampa Florida has twelve hours on the average of daily sunlight and so does Madison Wisconsin, but the differences come with the distance from the equator which gives Madison shorter winter sun and longer summer sun than Tampa Florida. The growing season is shorter in Madison than in Tampa, but it evens out so that both have a pretty comparable growing season due to the extension of daylight hours in Madison.

Why is the topsoil in tropical rainforests thin?

it is because, tropical rain forests face continuous rain fall, which leaches away the nutrients, along with the top soil. but still it has a dense vegetation, how? its simple it has a lot of trees and animals, so the remains of the waste materials, settles down and breaks down to release nutrients, so the cycle begins. the soil also has a lot of carbon in it, [as the whole place is filled with carbondioxide] it speeds up the reaction, so the dead remains quickly break down and fulfill the needs of the lush vegetation.

How does one decide who is the abuser and who is the victim as these seem to flow into one another?

When in the middle of the strife, the lines can be blurred and gray. I know after months of stress and emotional abuse, I would lash out angrily and then be accused of abusive behavior. With some hindsight, and hopefully not too much rationalizing, I can honestly say my intent was never to abuse. I think intent has a lot to do with it. My anger and rants were defensive rather than offensive. Now that the N is out of my life, most of those behaviors don't surface readily. But in the end, I think we're both victims: he with his undiagnosed and highly untreatable disorder, and me, for my codependent participation until I could endure no more.

Hmm, that's how I felt for many years!! I thought perhaps I was abusive as well. Look at the overall pattern and trend not just one incident at a time. I had the silent treatment for weeks, I was asked to leave (and I did for the night) to come back to locks being changed on my house. Everything I had learnt about how to communicate went wrong. We would set a mutual time and date and then he would find something to do instead (usually claiming to be tired). He wouldn't observe the time and date and instead lash out at me before hand and then when our time change--he'd said you're still angry over that! --that's over. He'd tell me right off the hop--he doesn't want to fight before I would express my concern and continue saying that while I was talking. He'd say don't use that tone with me ( like i was a child). He'd literally ignore me but if someone came around he was mr. wonderful again. It is a long and constant path of put-down, snide remarks, walking away, silent treatments, etc that makes you wonder who is the victim. Have no doubt, you are the victim. If you're questioning this, then you've become exactly what he wants--that's to be confused about the situation and surrunder to perhaps you had alot to do with the problem. He's turning it around so that you were at fault. Years of abuse would make you feel that way. Very confused.

I know that I was the victim of my exhusband's abuse for four years. The last year that we were together, I began to "fight back" and at this point, he began acting like the victim!! This was exactly what he wanted! He loved the attention that he got from his family and friends! Always remember that YOU are the victim and don't let him try to make you feel differently! I know that my ex still is trying to play up his "victim" role. See the information on narcissisim and you'll find that this is the way they work. I have found that researching narcissisim and abuse has been very beneficial for my own self-esteem and helping me to remember that HE is the abuser and that I was the victim. Be strong and always go with your instincts!!

What is the hidden truth behind these persons????

Stalkers and the Borderline Personality

The Borderline Personality

In recent years psychologists have learned about and done case studies on a new personality disorder which the DSM-III-R classifies as an Axis II disorder- the Borderline Personality . This classification includes such personality disorders as the Anti-social Personality, the Histrionic Personality and the Narcissistic Personality. Several psychologists (including myself) diagonosed my stalker as afflicted with the Borderline Personality. Characteristic of the Borderline (derived from research done by Kreisman & Straus, 1989) are:

a shaky sense of identity

sudden, violent outbursts

oversensitivity to real or imagined rejection

brief, turbulent love affairs

frequent periods of intense depression

eating disorders, drug abuse, and other self-destructive tendencies

an irrational fear of abandonment and an inability to be alone

Not much research has been done on the Borderline Personality, and for many years it was difficult to diagnose- and to treat. A Borderline often feels as though his/her life is marked with a distinctive emptiness; a void in which a relationship often acts to fill. Many times the Borderline is a victim of an early dysfunctional family situation and/or emotional/physical abuse by those he/she trusted early on in childhood.

The Borderline is psychotic , in the original, psychological meaning of the term: he/she is not in control and not in touch with reality. To the Borderline, a softly spoken word of advice can be construed as a threat on his/her emotional stability. An outsider's viewpoint that the Borderline is not in touch with reality often ends in a bitter and irrational dissassociation from the outsider on the part of the Borderline. Often, the Borderline ends up very much alone and victim to his/her disillusions.

The Borderline stalker is very apt to see his/her actions as perfectly justified; he/she has paranoid disillusions which support these-often with disturbing frequency. The Borderline often has brief love affairs which end abruptly, turbulently and leave the Borderline with enhanced feelings of self-hatred, self-doubt and a fear that is not often experienced by rational people. When the Borderline's relationships turn sour, the Borderline often begins to, at first, harass the estranged partner with unnecessary apologies and/or apologetic behavior (i.e. letters of apology 'from the heart', flowers delivered at one's place of employment, early morning weeping phonecalls, etc.). However, the Borderline does not construe his/her behavior as harassment- to the Borderline he/she is being 'responsible' for his/her past behaviors.

The next phase of the Borderline Personality develops relatively quickly and soon he/she feels suddenly betrayed, hurt, etc. and seeks to victimize the estranged partner in any way he/she can Strangely enough, this deleterious behavior is always coupled with a need to be near or in constant contact with the estranged partner . While sending threats to the estranged partner, it is very common for the Borderline to begin to stalk his/her estranged partner in an effort to maintain contact. This effort is motivated by the excruciating fear that the Borderline will end up alone and anger that [the estranged partner] has put him/her in this position. We are finding, in many cases, that a great deal of stalking behavior is associated with Borderline or related personality disorders. Earlier research did not incorporate the Borderline Personality in stalking profiles; research now is beginning to focus on the Borderline in such disorders as Erotomania, etc.

What advice can you give if I have been demonically possessed for many years?

== == I have no idea where you get the idea that you are demonically possessed and if you wouldn't mind could you give me some examples as to why you feel this way? Just tell your story. Firstly, I would advise you to see your doctor about this as it could be something treatable, secondly I would advise that if anything is attacking you or you feel vulnerable or exposed to any sort of demonic goings on, then speak to a priest, vicar, pastor or someone high up in your religion. Thirdly, sprinkle natural salt around your home. Doorways, windows, anywhere anything can get in. This is done to absorb negative energies. (A demonic entity will not be as strong with the salt barriers in your home). Please do not eat the salt, this will not help anything. Being possessed by demons isn't at all uncommon and most people that have never experienced this would rather deny or dismiss it or be non believers. It does happen. The Catholic Priests have ledgers upon ledgers of people that have been possessed. I did see a program on demonic possession and for a person such as myself to watch the Priest working with the patient possessed it appears 'staged' because that's just how it looks. There is nothing worse than something happening to your body and you can't convince others to believe it's real. Some people will simply laugh it off as another candidate that's seen 'The Exorcist' one too many times. There are possessions that take place if people would do their research. I suggest to you that you get a 'sleep study' done on yourself at either a University Hospital or a major hospital that deals with sleep problems. They may keep you indefinitely and study and monitor your sleep problems. There are other methods along with this to get to the root of your problem. I would also like to suggest there are a few diseases that can cause these same reactions to the body and you should be seeing a specialist and getting MRI's done as well as blood workups, etc.
