This has long been revealed to be a hoax. All of the webs were made by normal spiders and no drugs were involved.

No. It is the other methylxanthine that is harmful to dogs, that being theobromine.

People almost always choose the path of least resistance. This is not a fault most of the time, just common sense.

Why is objectifying women bad? What is actually bad about it? i'm not sure people even know what objectifying means in it's original definition. Surely all that matters is how you actually treat them. Plus it is unlikely that any man only ever thinks as women as objects. However it is a fact that all men sometimes think of women as objects; that's life. A woman who values a man's clothes is also participating in a form of objectification, but men don't care.

of men. Some estimates put the gender ratio split of severe depression at around 90% male-10% female. Depending on age, men are 5 to 10 times more likely to commit suicide. Of men and women who commit suicide, the use of firearms is identical in proportion, so the difference in suicide rates cannot be explained by gender preference for different methods (sub-lethal method preference). The suicide split difference is most likely entirely proportional to rates of depression i.e. more men commit suicide because more men are truly, severely depressed. This is obviously not a popular finding. Men and women both deserve treatment, however the current consensus that women experience depression more commonly is directly linked to men's poor treatment rates. If you know a man that you suspect is truly depressed, you should do everything in your power to encourage him to get help. This may even involve driving him to the doctor, picking up his prescription and making sure he takes it.

Women respond more to placebo antidepressants. These responders either have mild or no actual depression in the first place. Because they have convinced themselves they are depressed, they are more likely to be "cured" by the placebo. Women are also more likely to "improve" with psychotherapies (e.g. CBT). However CBT is completely ineffective in severe depression. This tells us that women are technically using the wrong word to define how they feel; many are not technically depressed, they just want someone to feel sorry for them and someone to talk to. On the other hand, Severely depressed people never respond to placebo antidepressants. Severely depressed people have a massively increased risk of suicide. The reason the numbers don't add up, is because the numbers are wrong. If the severity of depression was recategorised into mild dysthmia, moderate dysthmia or true depression (i.e. severe depression), then the number of people who were depressed would sway heavily in favour

Also with no air resistance, any movement imparted onto the flag during it's erection would continue for a very long time, just like a pendulum.
