Finally, your research paper should be 10-12 pages over one of your topics. It should contain a clear thesis statement, a discussion of the problem at hand, what is currently being done to solve the problem, and what should be done. This latter part is your own perspective, not necessarily that of your assigned country.

Sickle Cell Anaemia, well, part of it anyways.
I know that this has been mentioned before, but meh, it's a good example of both a beneficial mutation, and a mutation that is only beneficial based on environment.
If one of your parents has the genetic code to cause sickle-cell anaemia, even if they don't have the disease itself, you'll be immune to malaria. Should both your parents have it you'll probably die.
Naturally, this mutation is incredibly beneficial, if one of your parents has it, malaria is very deadly, and spreads quickly, if you're immune to it you'll be more likely to survive.
However, in areas where there isn't/wasn't any malaria, this was a mutation that was only harmful, it gave no benefit and could cause a deadly disease, as such people who had it didn't live any longer then other people, in fact, they died much faster, so this mutation all but vanished.
A small thing on sickle cell anaemia I was typing out for another forum, I copied it so that I could paste it into WP and edit it there (Accursed Spellbound not being updated!), I wrote it in response to the claim that there are no beneficial mutations in humans.

By the way, this reminds me of a bit I read some time ago on "outside the box" thinking. There is a test question that says:
You are given a barometer. How do you determine the height of a certain building?
The expected answer would be to measure the air pressure on the ground and at the top of the building and calculate from there, but there are some other answers:
Use the barometer as a weight on the end of a strong, non-stretching line. From the roof, lower the barometer to the ground. Mark the length of the line, and measure it.
Drop the barometer from the roof. Determine the time it takes to hit the ground. Given the time and acceleration, calculate the height of the building.
Find a building official and say "I'll give you this nice barometer if you tell me how tall the building is."

First you knock on his door with the barometer. :P
On top of that, you can get it's height in barometers, by placing it on the wall, making a mark, moving it up, etc.
You can also do something with a pendulum, but I can't remember quite what it was.

This would be from a thread I'm participating in at another forum, the basic premise is the person gives you a word, only instead of being in letters, it's in numbers (in this case 96566), they then give you a clue ("Think animal carnival"), and you have to decode what the number is. The catch is, the numbers are numbers from a phone, so 2 can only represent abc etc. So, I guessed that the first two letters were probably WO, and tried all permutations from there, unfortunately they all seem to be nonsense. (No helping me now, I will figure this out!), of course, this approach fails if I allow more then three, there are a total of 324 combinations, and I am not going to list them all :P

12. Politics & Religion
Due to the contentious nature of these subjects, forum participants are strongly advised to avoid discussing religious and political issues. Please don't begin or contribute to a topic that's merely going to incite or fuel a flame war.
However, the following exceptions apply:
A) Political impact upon space programs, exploration, and science.
B) Focused, polite discussion of concepts such as creationism and "intelligent design" which bear direct relevance to astronomy and science, for the purposes of conversing about and addressing misconceptions.
C) Focused, polite discussion of the difference between astronomy (including cosmology) and religion
Partisan political debate is unwelcome and should be undertaken elsewhere. The same applies to debates purely religious in nature. Likewise, proselytizing will not be allowed. In short, you are allowed to discuss politics and religion within a very limited scope where they affect space and space exploration, astronomy, and science. Nothing more. If you really really need to talk about these topics with someone, take it to email or to another bulletin board.
Well, I guess some can tell where my last cut and paste went.

Hmm...My daughter has been doing more research for her presentation about the 1980s for her history class. It was released in May 1980. She showed me the fashions of the 80s. We wore the ugliest clothes then. Funny, I didn't remember the fashions being that ugly at the time.

Susan, I have not received the final lab from you.
Without it you will have an 80% average; with it you will be much closer to 90%
I know it is late in the semester to be writing labs, but you have turned them all in and I thought I would offer you a chance.
Keep this in mind; lab is only 20% of your final grade in Physics. With the 80 you will receive 16 points towards your final grade; with a 90 you will receive 18 points. Your final grade in physics will to up 2 points.
So, if you have a solid grade and don't need the 2 points then your grade won't be effected much, but if you need the 2 points you might get that lab to me.

Llama Love
(A parody, to the tune of Muskrat Love, by Lance D'Llama © 2006)
With apologies to Willis Alan Ramsey and The Captain & Tenille
Llama, llama firelight
Shavin' your wool and shavin' it right
For my Sweater
Llama wool's better
Llama with brown fleece, llama with tan
Knitting that sweater in llama-land
While I quiver
So cold I shiver
And they sheer and they spin and they knit it
Tryin' it on so I fit it
Soft like the clouds up above
Feels like llama love
Nibbling on grasses, chewing on leaves
Eatin' real good for a healthy fleece and a soft one
It'll be no good
if its course hun
We don't want alpacas
Or guanacos
Llama wool llama, wool it really goes
With my poncho, down here on the rancho
And they sheer and they spin and they knit it
Tryin' it on so I fit it
Soft like the clouds up above
Feels like llama love

Hmm... I was looking at 80% AK-47 receivers.
For those that don't know (probably a lot on this forum) you can buy a "parts kit" of rifles such as an AK-47, where the receiver is cut in half with a plasma torch (usually there is a section missing too, so you can't weld it back together). You can buy a 80% receiver and finish the last 20% of work yourself, or make it all yourself. Don't worry, it's completely legal. You can NEVER transfere (sell) the rifle though. If you did you would be considered a 'manfacturer', and you need to be properly licensed for that.

Man Accused Of Hitting Biker Was Angry Over Traffic
POSTED: 3:37 pm EDT May 30, 2006
MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. -- Police say a North Carolina man accused of hitting a motorcyclist in Myrtle Beach and dragging the man's bike for miles may have been upset over traffic.
Larry Jacobs, 67, of Sugar Grove, North Carolina, is being held without bond charged with assault and battery with intent to kill. Makino Robinson, who is a 27-year-old soldier on leave from Fort Bragg, was struck Sunday morning during the Atlantic Beach Bike Fest.
Witnesses said Jacobs changed lanes and struck Robinson's bike from behind. Robinson reportedly struggled not to be pulled under the car.
Myrtle Beach Police Detective Michael Hull says Jacobs was angry over the traffic congestion caused by the festival.
Robinson's sister says the soldier received bruises and road burns from the incident and is resting at his family's Georgetown County home.

Before The Planetary Society stepped in to help, only about 11 years of Pioneer Doppler data had been analyzed, and the Pioneer anomaly remained a mystery. A lot of the remaining data (more than 19 years of it) were stored on old 7- and 9-track magnetic tapes needed to be saved and converted to modern media. By June 2006, scientists and engineers led by Slava Turyshev at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory were able to recover much of the more than 30-year navigational histories of both spacecraft.
