Bipolar Disorder

There are plenty disorders to the brain. I’m going to explain about the bipolar disorder. Bipolar disorder is when you experience off and on stages of madness and depression. There is a second bipolar disorder called bipolar ll. bipolar ll is the same thing as regular bipolar but it has more tame symptoms.
Bipolar is most common between the age groups 18-29. http://www.blackdoginstitute.org.au/docs/FactsandFiguresfactsheet.pdf
Up to 25% of people, who have bipolar disorder; commit suicide while having the disorder. They have found out that the cause of bipolar disorder is a problem in the cellular activities, so in other words the neurotransmitters are not functioning correctly with the receptors. http://www.brainexplorer.org/brain_disorders/focus_bipolar_disorder.shtml
There are treatments for bipolar disorder. First, they actually have a prescribed medicine for it, and sometimes the person who has bipolar disorder will simply just go to therapy.

The Ruc people of Vietnam

Now, due to a very low amount of available information, this will be a relatively short essay.
The Ruc is a tribe that is located in the Country of Laos, which is right next to Vietnam. Something that is strange, but not surpising, about the tribe is that if a man or woman in the tribe is bitten or attacked by an animal, they are believed to be cursed and are banished from the tribe, unable to return for 2 or 3 months. Ancestoral worship is not practised in each home of the tribes, but instead is observed in the house of the Village Cheif. They worship a line of spirits, and spirits of the earth, humans, animals and the forest are believed to be the most powerful. Their language is that commonly used among other Chut tribes (the Ruc being a "branch" of the Chut), and they have no native Ruc language; although they are believed to have had a native language until recently. Unfortunately, that is all I was able to find about the internal interactions of the Ruc tribe.

Getting Better Grades

Understanding one’s mind, is a way to describe the word psychology. Understanding is something most people search for whether it be of themselves or of another. The mind, not to be confused with the brain, is used to understand something and similar to such. Therefore, getting better grades would come from better understanding the knowledge your mind is trying to absorb and being able to act on it, would be apart of psychology.
One can get better grades simply by studying that can help you recall forty percent of the information or a method found even more sufficient with sixty-one percent recall on the information, known as self-testing frequently. We all know how to study, we just don’t take the time to do so! Go ahead, push yourself to take the time to do some studying. Some people know, but not many, that self-quizzing can lead to better memory of the information and can lead you to have a better memory and get a better grade on that test! Testing takes, normally, a good portion of percent or our overall percentile grade. Expand your mind, prepare yourself, push yourself, and try your best to get better grades; which helps your mind and the knowledge helps you better understand what you’re capable of, meaning the ability to use psychology on yourself everyday.
I reference all my ideas and way of thinking back to an all about psychology website. I do, indeed, believe in their ideas and they have so much to share. Learning of the self-quizzing thing to improve your memory and ability to recall does give me a new idea of how to do good on tests. It helps me get better grades, and I do love to push myself to succeed. So, I was quite happy to learn a new psychological way to do better in school and enhance my mind.

Isolated Tribe of New Guinea: Reactions with the Outside World

The second largest island - the first going to Greenland, New Guinea is home to an estimated 44 uncontacted tribal groups. The world is closing in on them, though. Those who live in such remote isolation, is like they don’t live in the same world as we do, though they do. Today’s society is closing in on them and slowly deforesting their homes and places they live.
They live in forest depths in huts and up in the trees. Surviving by hunting, fishing, gathering plants, and berries, is how they live. So isolated from our world today, knowing nothing of television, Internet, and all our technological we have today, that have even become almost accustomed into our everyday lives. They know of airplanes but only because of the fact that there are airplanes that fly close and low to their settlements from time to time. Since they are so distanced from the world we have today, some wonder whether we should leave them to their course of fate or help them and push them to our way of living.
The isolated tribe of New Guinea try to stay isolated but as we search for oil and log, we destroy their homes, making it that much harder for them to stay as they are. They aren’t really sure on who we are, how we exist in such manners, or know much of how we live. Yet, we study them and watch them as we slowly face them to what fate has decided or we can push them into our society and hope they can survive the diseases they never have had to make contact with and if they survive, slowly they’d lose their grip on their old culture as they adjust to our world. Only few will maintain their spiritual beliefs, languages, and culture.
Though, the isolated tribes that live within New Guinea have one of the highest numbers on our planet, they still face such problems. Maybe because of their lack of mixing with people from outside their tribes, or maybe from not adapting as life has. Whichever way it is, we have studied and come to learn that they do not like to react with the outside world. They know little of what we know so much of. As we grow and they continue to not react with the changing outside world that is around them, it makes it difficult for either we or them to learn anything about one another. Leaving us with a blind spot in our knowledge, whether it be for good or bad, no one can know.
I reference my writing to several articles, readings, and wikipedia. That is how I have come to the conclusion that they do not seem to be a group who would like to mix with the outsiders, in this case being us. They have survived so long by hunting, fishing, and gathering, living huts and tree houses. They are so high on their own spiritual beliefs, enriched with their cultures and languages, it’s no wonder they don’t want to change what it is they know and how they live. They try to stay hidden and away from our world.
I find it quite disheartening to read that because they don’t mix with our world that we are slowly destroying their homes and their way of life. We make it almost impossible for them to survive more than a little longer. I do personally think that they are stuck in their own ways because we do not try hard enough to mix with them, rather than they mix with us. We’re the ones who have changed and become different, while they have stayed the same. They have stayed the same for so long and have maintained their lives just by not reacting with us. They probably won’t react with us, the outside world, any time soon either.

Pintupi's Internal Affairs

Pintupi is a isolated people who live in Western Australia. They are one of the nine aboriginals groups in Australia. They live their traditional lifestyles in the desert. They socially organize themselves by means of ritual life or justify one's presence in a place. Their leaders would be elders who have schooled in folk lore and organizes meeting for a consensus. Social control is found through meditation with friends or kin. Conflicts are violent and not really stopped. Most conflicts will start around the subject of women and people may die or be injured.

The Pintupi ususally are always moving among the desert. Camps are temporary and sometimes only for overnight. These camps are segregated by gender and marital status. Most of the camps made would be very small which explains how they more constantly.

Pintupi live a traditional style of life. Meaning that most of the jobs would be hunting and gathering. Farming is not really an option when everyone constantly moves night after night at times. They also have their own art that they create as most aboriginal people do.

The Pintupi live a simple life and remain isolated from any outside cultures. Even though they may be isolated, these people are surviving and living their own way of life.

Flash Mobs; where and why are they occurring

Flash Mobs have been occurring frequently in Philadelphia. Teenagers have been grouping together hundreds at time at local malls and stores, creating reckless and violent destruction. The mayor Mr. Nutter in an attempt to stop the teenagers from causing more harm he has set up a curfew that requires all persons under 18 to be off the streets by 10p.m. Mr. Nutter has been appearing publicly to spread the message and enforce his new laws to keep teens off the streets and away from temptation of violence.

Why are teenagers committing these flash mobs? Some blame it on the social networks, poor parenting, and even the teenage generation all together claming that we’re way to violent. Maybe those reason do have a purpose to them but psychologists think that the reason teenagers are attracted to violence is because they have grown up with violence and don’t know better, they have been neglected and feel the need to lash out, hang out with the “wrong crowd” and get into drugs.
Many think that now a days teenagers are so much more violent now that they were a few decades ago. According to statistics that it true, but only because they have been allowed to do so resulting in mass violence like the flash mobs in Philadelphia
