The Smartphone’s Role In Dumbing Down America
In short, dumbing down is the deliberate oversimplification of intellectual content in education, literature, cinema, news, video games, and culture.

The smartphone has begun to play a huge role In dumbing down America. Rather than being a source to move us forward, it has become an albatross around the necks of many weak-minded souls that depend on them. People turn to ... [Image Embedded Here]

Men who watch p 0 r n. I REFUSE to date one.
First off, I'm not interested in a man who finds the objectification and abuse of women arousing. Secondly, the acts shown in most if not all p 0 r n is a twisted perversion of reality and morals.
3rd for all you men who think whacking off to some chick...pretending it's you on the video...these videos for a 15 minutes portion can take up to 7 hours to film and up to 48 hours ( literally 48 solid hours of straight editing / fixing/ slimming / beautifying. For filming theres makeup, wardrobe, hairstylists video editing ( editing of bodies & faces) fake semen made of icing as in the white stuff on cinnamon rolls, fake squirting mechanisms and look at these girls and the stupid fake faces they make and they can't hide the fact they're in pain much of the time. There's even the "cartoon" and anim versions which consist of anatomically impossible figured for instance which for example a typical body measurement would be bust 42 waist 18 hips 32....it's all bullshit. Not to mention p 0 r n users are contributing to the exploitation of children and women and child p 0 r n. Furthermore, I will not date a guy who aroused himself by watching and fantasizing and ogling over other women / using their imagery for the purpose of arousing himself only to then want to put his aroused penis in me. I am not his cum dumpster nor am I his sex toy or self-gratification tool or his only redort. In other words, if I'm not enough to cause you to be aroused & aroused enough to want to f**k, then you have NO BUSINESS PUTTING YOUR DICK IN ME! I HAVENT even mention the harm it causes to our society, families, marriages & relationships
Mainstream media has done a great job of selling it as "normal" or even acceptable behavior to watch other people have sex like wild, uncivilized animals. They're completely brainwashing society into eliminating the entire reason for sexual contact other than reproducing...that is LOVE. SEX is supposed to be meaningful and an act an intimate private act between two who are expressing their love for one another. It's not an extra-curfivular activity or sporting event or spectator sport. The newer generations have been completely brainwashed into thinking it's ok to have p 0 r n disrupting the relationship! It does. Men know it's a form of cheating and that's why they hide it!
I'd rather be alone than be with a guy who watches and/or whacks off to p 0 r n.
The great p 0 r n experiment | Gary Wilson | TEDxGlasgow
In response to Philip Zimbardo's "The Demise of Guys?" TED talk, Gary Wilson asks whether our brains evolved to handle the hyperstimulation of today's Internet enticements. He also discusses the disturbing symptoms showing up in some heavy Internet users, the surprising reversal of those symptoms, and the Science behind these 21st century phenomena.
More About Gary Wilson
Gary is host of http://www.yourbrainonp 0 r n.com. The site arose in response to a growing demand for solid scientific information by heavy Internet erotica users experiencing perplexing, unexpected effects: escalation to more extreme material, concentration difficulties, sexual performance problems, radical changes in sexual tastes, social anxiety, irritability, inability to stop, and obsessive-compulsive symptoms.
As a physiology teacher with a particular interest in the latest neuroscience discoveries, Gary was aware that their symptoms might be the result of addiction-related brain changes. Applying the website's concepts of brain plasticity, many former users have braved withdrawal, reversed their symptoms and restored normal sexual responsiveness.
The site has been linked to from hundreds of threads in forums from over thirty countries, with posts numbering in the thousands. Gary blogs for "Psychology Today" and "The Good Men Project" on the extreme plasticity of adolescent brains, the evolutionary context for today's flood of novel cyber "mates," and the neurochemical reasons why superstimulating Internet delivery has unexpected effects on the brain.

As I have written earlier on curezone, I suffer from a feeling of heaviness and stiffness around my eyes, mostly my left eye. It has been a year since this began, although I had it in a significantly milder form before too. It disables me from proper social contact and also in my work because I am unable to make proper eye contact, as my eyes stiffen into a gaze.
I know that sinus congestion is related to this because I can breath easier from my left nostril rather than my right. However, I have tried many remedies for sinus and not had anything more than temporary relief.
What I have discovered over the months is that when I stretch my neck, my sinus clears up for a few moments. The stretch I do is among the most simple ones. It can be seen in the image on this page.
I don't quite understand what is happening here. My physiotherapist says that the brain gets certain signals and it could be that in my brain's make-up, the areas that are stimulated when the neck muscles stretch are also the areas that are stimulated when the sinuses clear, and that the brain is far too complex and too little understood at this time to offer any simple explanations. He said it with a little more jargon but this was the essence of it.
Can anyone help me understand what is going on here? How do neck stretches help the sinuses? I have been asked by the doctor to get an MRI of both the cervical spine and the sinuses but having read up on MRIs I do not feel it is safe to get them.

Online gaming, shopping, chatting and social networking sites such as Facebook are slowly replacing in-person interactions with others – often to the detriment of one's health. Excessive Internet use is associated with depression, but what we don't know is which comes first are depressed people drawn to the Internet or does the Internet cause depression?

This Donald and Sue Hepner had me sign a lease agreement and acted like the owners of 4141 Glencoe Avenue Unit #303, Marina Del Rey, CA 90292
They advertised they're ad in Bakers Field California in the headline they put:

All I can say is anyplace I am renting will be with me seeing it visually in person or walking in at least shaking someones hand. Not just sending money or direct depositing without some form of security.
This is a classic scam and fraud and believable to some extent cause it seems natural for property owners to rent to tenants and potentially be out of the area owning investment properties... Be careful is all I can say. "Craigslist Scam Susan Hepner"

glad to hear from you! what your doing sounds good to me. I'm having some more problems so I think I have been doing TOOO much, so I'm laying off the herbs cut back on the prescriptions and have been taking probiotics. I'm hoping thats the answer cause i'm not getting better, but maybe its because my immune system needs that bacteria now not later (how I planned my treatment). keep posting :)
