INTELLIGENCE TEST Caregiver The quintessential characteristic of a Caregiver type is the desire to take care of others. For this reason, Caregivers may be drawn to the long-term care of children or the elderly. Though some Caregivers find their need to nurture satisfied by raising a family, many others seek out work in such venues as schools, hospitals, and animal shelters. The long-term care of those with Alzheimer’s, autism, and mental illness often becomes the responsibility of Caregivers. If you recognize yourself as a Caregiver, you may already have noticed the tendency to put others’ needs ahead of your own. You are loyal to the extreme, and you guard those who are entrusted to your care with your life. Your empathy allows you to understand nonverbal emotional signals.

Q&A: New Spider Weaves Spider-Shaped Web Wildlife biologist Phil Torres recently discovered a new species of spider in the Amazon that would take first prize at any costume party. This tiny five-millimeter-long spider builds a decoy spider around five times its size to scare off potential predators. After describing his find on his blog, Torres sat down with Weird & Wild to share the story of how he came to find this new species of spider. Q: How did you first spot this spider? A: I was at the Tambopata Research Center in Peru (map), which is a ten-hour canoe ride from the nearest town. It looked like a spider that had been killed by a fungus—it had this flaky, evaporated look to it. Had anyone previously documented this spider? After freaking out a bit, we took a bunch of pictures to really document what we had seen. Talking to Dr. The decoy made by this new spider is much more detailed and difficult to construct because it has the body structure and the leg structure. So is that the purpose of the decoy?

It is possible for travellers to improve the lives of people during our trips. Give[edit] A few ideas are: Take books to drop off at schools in villages you pass through. Consider whether supporting beggars is the best directed form of assistance, or if there is a better organisation to support. See also Teaching English. Volunteer[edit] Volunteering whilst travelling is a great way to 'make a difference' but it's not just about giving. If you're only on a short trip, take time to visit an orphanage, hospital, etc. There are several ways to combine travelling and voluntary work: In Europe, young European citizens (legal inhabitants, you need at least a residence permit) can participate in the EVS program ("European Voluntary Service") [1], which allows you to work abroad for 3 months up to a year, funded by the European Union at some kind of charitable organization.
10 Psychological Experiments That Went Horribly Wrong Psychology as we know it is a relatively young science, but since its inception it has helped us to gain a greater understanding of ourselves and our interactions with the world. Many psychological experiments have been valid and ethical, allowing researchers to make new treatments and therapies available, and giving other insights into our motivations and actions. Sadly, others have ended up backfiring horribly — ruining lives and shaming the profession. Here are ten psychological experiments that spiraled out of control. 10. Stanford Prison Experiment Prisoners and guards In 1971, social psychologist Philip Zimbardo set out to interrogate the ways in which people conform to social roles, using a group of male college students to take part in a two-week-long experiment in which they would live as prisoners and guards in a mock prison. 9.

Largest Web-Spinning Spider Found October 21, 2009 Meet the newest odd couple of the animal kingdom: the giant female and tiny male of the largest web-spinning spider known to science: Nephila komaci. The female of the species has a leg span of up to 5 inches (12 centimeters), while the male—which spends much of its time clambering on its partner's back—barely reaches an inch (2.5 centimeters), a new study says. Part of a well-known group of golden orb-weaver spiders—which can spin webs up to three feet (one meter) wide—N. komaci was first identified in a South African museum collection in 2000. But it wasn't until a 2007 field survey, which discovered three individuals in South Africa's Tembe Elephant Park, that scientists knew the spider still existed in the wild. The newfound spider, detailed October 20 in the journal PLoS One, is the first addition to the Nephila genus since 1879. Largest Web-Spinner a Rarity (Watch a video of the world's largest spider.)
