Content: All the pairs of Black Women and White Men I met, on the other hand, were people who truly loved each other, and who were ready to be together despite the obvious negative social pressure that was on them. In all the cases I was exposed to, it was plain visible that these people formed strong couples. Such BM/ WW couples obviously also exist, but in the final statistics, they’re dwarfed by the amounts of false BM/WW couples made by people who didn’t really have any interest in one another. This is probably the real justification behind those divorce rates ; there are simply more Black Men/ White Women couples who shouldn’t exist in the first place because the partners aren’t specially compatible to begin with, while almost all Black Women with White Men couples are based on genuine love - which of course makes them stronger, and less prone to divorce.

How do white Americans feel about interracial relationships between black men and white women? To blacks dating white women, imagine how it would look if Mandela dated a white south African. Is there much difference between South Africa and United States in race relations? Who am I kidding, of course there is! The hatred is not reciprocated by African Americans. | https://www.quora.com/Why-are-divorce-rates-high-in-interracial-marriages |

Originally Answered: Why is the farmer more important? We all need food. In the very olden days, the men would go into surrounding areas and hunt and gather materials for food, the women may also have participated in some aspects of gathering, and in primitive societies today, the women and girls do most of the water gathering. Farming began when seeds gathered from the wild were planted close to home, this made the next harvest easier and allowed time for other activities. The selection of better seeds led to better harvests, further providing better harvests and more spare time. Domestication of wild animals followed a similar sequence. These who

Governments are created to establish and order among people. This is a human tendency. Since the beginning of time, humans have needed a system to guide and govern them because humans desire some type of order. You can find examples of this historically and even Biblically. If you sit down and really think about it, no one person really came up with the idea of government either. Different people created their own laws and rules by which a government is founded, some really took off while others didn’t. | https://www.quora.com/Why-are-governments-created |

I will never get why trump’s bigotry appealed to millions of Americans who remain either quietly or virulently prejudiced. But I do not believe all trump's supporters are racists. And I'll add, while I'm fair on the mark, that if you enjoy his crass sexist remarks, and I believe they appeal to millions of Americans who still consider women second-class citizens and sexual objects, THEN YOU'RE LIVING IN THE DARK AGES!

Why are some people lactose intolerant?

Content: But the domestication of animals changed things. Humans had access to animals which would sit still for being milked, which wild animals would not. That gave at least some of us access to a regular supply of lactose, which we didn’t have previously. At that point, it became advantageous for those populations not to be lactose intolerant. A mutation for adult lactase persistence did, indeed, appear about 8000 years ago, probably somewhere in western Asia and, since it was useful, it spread through the population. So, then, most humans are lactose intolerant because for most of human history, they had no reason not to be. When conditions changed, we started moving in the direction of not being lactose intolerant, but evolution is slow and the advantage is slight, so only about a third of us aren’t lactose intolerant now.

With the debut of Blackpink, succeeding partially because of how long 2NE1 had left the scene devoid of strong, edgier girlg groups, it was pretty obvious that 2NE1 wouldn’t last much longer. 2NE1 had to disband at some point. It happened now because CL was becoming more independent, Dara was always just the visual (without CL, Minzy, Bom, she can’t do much music-wise), Minzy was done, and Bom may have become tired…?

Originally Answered: why did Jordan Belfort go to jail? TL;DR: Jordan Belfort went to jail for securities fraud and money laundering. Belfort founded Stratton Oakmont which marketed penny stocks and defrauded investors with the pump and dump schemes.

Content: However, the impact of such videos hits us deep inside, and we don't see it, hence fail to realise it. When you get back in the real world after enjoying such clips for hours, you obviously feel disappointed, because normal people, without filters, are not even near to that level of attractiveness. Now, you would need a similar level of beauty to feel attracted, which means you get weaker and frustrated. Also, the bright glittery light of illusionary looks makes you blind towards the key attributes of humans, which are nature, compatibility, personality and love. The lesson here is, we must learn to identify hidden side effects or rather emotional side effects of free, pleasure-seeking activities like Tiktoking. Not every addiction is visible, but the long term consequences are same; disastrous for our life. Answering this question-
TIKTOK is nothing but an addiction to an illusionary glittering life, which is far away from reality but powerful enough to fascinate us.

Why did Rome become an empire?
Content: the Roman army was pretty good, but not good enough to secure imperial expansion on its own. Rome becomes an Imperial Regime: The Roman Republic collapsed and became an imperial regime due in large part to its stunning success. The constant wars overseas and the need to campaign in faraway territories (such as Asia Minor and Hispania) as the Roman Republic entered the Hellenistic Word and annexed provinces led to devastation for the farmers who constituted most of the troops: their farms were not cultivated while large landowners using slave labor got them out of business. This led to social unrest (such as the attempt of the Gracchi for reform and the violence that ensued). Gaius Marius, a Roman general, partially solved Rome’s problem with his reforms. He created a standing professional army which included landless Romans. While this new army performed very well on the field of battle, the soldiers gave their allegiance not to the state but rather to the general who led them to victory and provided them with the spoils of war. Also those reforms did not manage to alleviate social unrest. | https://www.quora.com/Why-did-Rome-become-an-empire |

Some aristocrats saw in the popular discontent a chance to gain power. Those formed the Populares, the populist faction who campaigned the cause of the disaffected. Some of the Populares as well as some of the Optimates, the conservative faction, also saw in the new, professionalized army of Marius the means with which they could gain power since (as stated above) the soldiers were more loyal to their general than to the Roman state. Ambitious generals such as Sulla used the army in domestic conflicts; Sulla marched on Rome twice and became dictator thanks to the support of the soldiers. | https://www.quora.com/Why-did-Rome-become-an-empire |

Julius Caesar was, though, by far the most successful of the generals who used the army to gain political power. After his success in Gaul (58 - 51 BC), his enemies tried to eliminate him and thus he moved his army against the Republic. By the end of the civil war and his victory over Pompey, he had become absolute ruler of the Roman state. Although he was assassinated in 44 BC, by this time the Republic could not be saved. Augustus completed what Caesar started. | https://www.quora.com/Why-did-Rome-become-an-empire |

Content: If you think it's those other things, you're living some other dream. Ask an immigrant to the USA instead of a poor person or a middle class person. Ask an immigrant who's come from a poor slum of Dacca or Lagos. Ask a kid whose parents slaved away to scrape up money to send them here to study something meaningful. It's funny that the people least equipped to access the American Dream are American-born citizens. Ask an immigrant and you usually get a different story. Even today, with increasing wealth disparity, the fact is, the US still has a massive middle class. Most of the people born today, will live their entire lives at or above the middle class mark. What is different are the pressures -- both real and self-inflicted -- that individual Americans have to deal with in achieving the American Dream.

There ARE jobs, just not the jobs Americans want to go to college and study for ("But I wanna be a teacher!")

Some people were, and are, born into difficult circumstances, and may not have the opportunities of those born into better ones. But so many of us came from impoverished ancestors (some quite recently), and saw such a high correlation between hard work and success in our personal lives as well as in family stories that the American dream lives inside us regardless of where we end up. Most of us believe that the 50 year old in the trailer park probably made some bad choices along the way, and didn't have the grit to overcome them. If you ask them, many in that situation would agree. The American dream is not a utopian dream, where the outcome is guaranteed and nobody can end up in a trailer park. It is about opportunity, which requires something more than just a dream. | https://www.quora.com/Why-did-people-believe-in-the-American-Dream |

There are lots of reasons. One reason why the DeLorean car made it as far as it did was because of enormous financial aid from the British government.

Content: But it wasn’t to be. TellTale’s The Walking Dead: The Final Season will probably never be released, preventing long-time fans from ever getting closure on Clementine’s story, and the Stranger Things game will never enter production. I like to think this is because of the trends that occur in gaming—and really, with humans in general. One day, something amazing comes out and everybody flocks to it like birds to a feather. The Walking Dead was this way. It came out and garnered immense popularity and attention from nearly every corner of the internet.

Content: I’ll tell you now, that will be quite common among players of the first season of The Walking Dead. And TellTale didn’t get it. The company capitalized too heavily on their chosen genre, thinking it would remain popular forever; they never once tried their hand at anything else. And to be truthful, things weren’t looking good for them as recently as 2017. The year included a fresh group of layoffs from the developer as well as the resignation of the CEO, all bad signs for the future. Ultimately, the poor business decisions made by TellTale are what killed off Clementine and the conclusion of her story. TellTale, a developer unused to high success, tried their hand at being a major player and failed. But there are positives in that failure. Much like the disappointing release of Knights of the Old Republic II way back in the early 2000’s, perhaps someone will find a way to release the remainder of the game. | https://www.quora.com/Why-did-video-game-company-Telltale-Games-shut-down |

Why didn't any of Trump's children serve in the U.S. military?
Content: As a side note, wealthy is not a positive in the military. I served with a couple of guys that were well off, and one of the other companies had a soldier whose personal net worth was probably more than the whole battalion put together. He went AWOL once because he had to sign some paperwork that was worth an enormous amount of money and they didn’t want to give him the two days he needed. He left, came back, did his NJP and carried on. Glad he was there, but having a soldier that does not really give a damn about an article 15 must have presented some leadership challenges. Interestingly, you can be discharged honorably for being wealthy under a “Convenience of the Government” justification. They just have to decide that your financial situation presents unnecessary complications. Quora User

Why do I feel like I'm being watched? Originally Answered: Why do I feel like I'm being watched? I'm not religious not do I believe in ghosts but doors have opened before my eyes and sounds made. Yes, you are not religious, do not believe in ghosts, very rationale about your thinking but still you'll feel you are being watched, because you know what? You are actually constantly being watched by yourself. It's not the most obvious thing that is happening the way you feel. During our life while growing up, we make a self judging standard to test our deeds and throughout the time that self judging standard takes up a form of person. Now this imaginary personal will make decisions for you on the basis of it's judgement. | https://www.quora.com/Why-do-I-feel-like-Im-being-watched |

Why do I feel like I'm being watched? Originally Answered: Why do I feel that I'm always being watched? Well because we do it ourselves
We do watch
We go too the importance
We look for evidence to back up what we think is correct
We use our eyes for visual is one of our main senses and focus
And in knowledge we know
Everyone else does too
This is a common our normal too look to observe
And it's coming back to us too
Be comfortable in it
Not unsure of it
It's okay
It's natural
Be happy in it 😊

Content: Originally Answered: Why do I feel that I'm always being watched? Well because we do it ourselves
We do watch
We go too the importance
We look for evidence to back up what we think is correct
We use our eyes for visual is one of our main senses and focus
And in knowledge we know
Everyone else does too
This is a common our normal too look to observe
And it's coming back to us too
Be comfortable in it
Not unsure of it
It's okay
It's natural
Be happy in it 😊

Cats have many different kinds of vocalizations and reasons for using their “voices”. While most are harmless, some can be an indication of an underlying problem. Oh, and full disclosure, I’m Dr. Lauren Demos, feline specialist and Chief Veterinary Officer at Pettable. While they adapt to their owner’s schedule, cats are naturally crepuscular – they are most active at dawn and dusk. So when you are just falling to sleep or trying to squeeze in a few extra minutes of rest, your cat is at their most active time of their day. This can be the cause of the “nighttime zoomies” or those loud vocal noises. They are simply up and ready to go. Nighttime vocalization can also be a sign of boredom. Just like dogs, cats need stimulation. | https://www.quora.com/Why-do-cats-sound-like-a-crying-baby-at-night |

C)Firm strategy, structure and rivalry- No one managerial, ownership or operational strategy is universally appropriate.

Originally Answered: As a country, why do we need trade? Because a country can’t always produce the good or possess the natural resources it need. In order to gain those things, countries establishes trade relationship so country that produce a surplus of certain goods can sell it to another country in need.

Content: Psychiatrists, especially, hear a lot of things. It's not a field people tend to go into if they are easily shocked by the varieties of the human condition. Psychiatrists are typically trained in psychotherapy as well as psychopharmacology, and it's widely understood to be an important principle of psychotherapy not to get mad at your patient when they reveal something sensitive. That said, the whole thing, sadly, can depend on various aspects of your social status. Mental health professionals are biased humans, and that bias does extend to the way they determine whether you are likely just looking to get high or to sell your meds on the black market. Now for the rant: The part of things that is a needless bureaucratic hurdle is the requirement in many states for endless, very frequent medically unnecessary followup appointments, paper forms that must be picked up in person, etc., to get scheduled drug prescriptions, as well as chronic shortages due to supply chain regulations.

I have never heard this before. Pilots avoid turbulence whenever possible. When going through climb from departure to cruising altitude, the aircraft often has to go "up" through turbulence to get to 30 - 38,000 feet. In that time from ground to 6+ miles up in the air, there is a good chance you will go through some rough air. Air is a constantly moving 'fluid'. It can move in three directions (up, down, sideways) and all be in very close proximity to each other. It is not worth the extra fuel consumption to stay at lower altitudes and there's no way to predict how wide the disrupted air flow will be from the pilots planned track.

I’m waiting for the official NTSB report on this occurrence (if one even winds up being required), but it sounds like a prompt and reasonable response to an urgent need to get lower for the biological safety of the people aboard the aircraft… nothing more. I hate the use of the word “plunge” when applied to a possibly rapid but controlled descent. People think of headlines like “Bus Plunge Kills Fifty,” describing a crash through a guardrail and a fatal fall, when lazy writers and editors use that emotionally charged word. A vehicle designed to move in three dimensions instead of two rarely “plunges” unless it’s unable to be maneuvered normally. Since the flight involved landed safely, that was not the case in this scenario. Consider: the emergency oxygen masks available to passengers — and for that matter, cabin crewmembers — can’t keep anyone alive above about 37,000 feet. When you’re above that altitude, oxygen literally has to be forced into your lungs, not just breathed through the plastic Dixie (TM) Cups. The pressure outside, which helps one’s body absorb ambient oxygen, is pretty low until you get a lot lower in the atmosphere.

Many school systems embark on the journey of school transformation with a comprehensive, systemic plan that, if implemented well, would increase the probability of success. At the same time, many plans include numerous isolated innovations—data-drivendecision-making, collaborative structures, additional positions and services,and the like—but they lack a comprehensive system that integrates the many structures that cause a school to transform.

Content: As Tony Wagner clearly writes in Change Leadership (2012), “Without determining what is truly important, everything becomes urgent, and, in practice then, nothing is important.” While this is true of all leaders, turnaround principals must not only be able to discern between what is urgent and what is important but between what is important and what is most important. This is a battle that turnaround leaders must fight—and win—on a regular basis. Successful turnaround principals have a sense of urgency to focus on the things that are most important in school transformation. In today’s educational environment, there is so much urgency that it necessitates a leader who can not just react to his/her environment but one who can deliberately attend to the things that matter most in a transformational school. Discernment in a transformational school is based on the understanding that—first and foremost— the quality of instruction will determine the quality of student achievement.

Basically there are two major ways in which a leader can influence the quality of the instruction in a school. I often refer to them as the “P & P.”

In my experience, when school leaders understand the details associated with influencing the quality of instruction it often leads to better decision-making on their part. A chef with a deeper understanding of the chemistry of taste or an artist with knowledge of hues, tints, tone and shades simply makes better decisions than one who doesn’t.
