The purpose of this article is to stimulate a debate on the practice of polygamy within the African setting. My premise is that polygamy was a practice of a few (mainly rich) men in almost every African community.  If this premise is correct or valid, then it is debatable if polygamy was in reality a cultural practice or norm as it is often purported. The practice of polygamy is/was also allowed and protected within the Jewish, Islam, and other tribal/religious systems. Polygamy continues to be a practice of choice among few rich African men within African communities. Refraining from practicing polygamy by a rich man does/did not necessarily constitute a violation of African culture and norms...

Typically a customer really only wants to have an intense conversation about decorating, while in the process of selecting a floor. What hardwood flooring, paint and railing will make the home look like a million bucks.

The closer we stay to the earth the better. Try and eat organic foods if possible. They are a bit...

This may seem obvious once I say it but here goes anyway, America is supposed to be united against its foes, especially in a time of war. As you can see we are not.

First impressions – it’s so easy to get them wrong.   When we meet somebody new, we size that person up in just a few seconds.   A few seconds, that’s all it takes to decide whether or not we like somebody, whether we trust them, whether or not we want to get to know them better.  We make snap judgments about others all the time based on our first impressions of them.  And other people are constantly making snap judgments about us too.   Once we make these snap judgments about other people, we rarely change our minds later.    We rarely change our minds after a first impression because humans are hard-wired to make snap judgments.    Why is this?  It could be because our ancestors...
