what are the Queensberry rules of relationship fights

What kind of conflict resolution do you use in your relationship? There are it seems to me at least two types: 1. rules that you agree on as a couple to use during a conflict so as to address the conflict but also resolve it constructively 2. rules/approaches that you use unilaterally to approach a conflict

Is the clear cut dichotomy true?

Jill Bolte Taylor uses a very clear cut dichotomy when explaining the respective roles of the left and right hemisphere: one is oriented towards parrallel processing of sense data, the other towards serial, conscious, target-oriented processing. Is this reflective of the modern state of the art neurological schientific knowledge? It's an intuitively attractive explanation. But is it true? It sounds simplistic.

Help me be able to make mobile calls while visiting the US

I'd really like to be able to make mobile calls during my visit to the US. I'm wondering what my best option is. 1. It would be nice if I'd be able to use my old european GSM. I'd buy a cheap prepaid SIM in the US 2. if that wouldn't work I'd like to buy a very cheap second hand cellphone in San Francisco and use it with a US prepaid SIM.

How can I provide two view-versions of a single document?

How to write one document that translates into several targeted documents? In other words: how can I provide one kind of view on my thesis to people from university, who care about definitions of terms, literature references, methodical preambles, and another to other people who are also interested in sidebars and anecdotal evidence? Some parts of the text are relevant to both.
