You shouldn't be so worried about being the right weight to attract the opposite sex. Everyone should strive for a healthy weight and stature; you should want to be fit and healthy for yourself, not to attract a mate. If you spend your time trying...
I don't know but I do know that before tatooing that your skin will be scrubbed scrupulously clean so I doubt there will be any remaining temporary tatoo. Tatooing pushes ink under your skin so you don't want anything on your skin to go along with i...
For someone 5'9" 139 is not really fat; in fact it is in the lower half of normal. I think that even if you have overcome the worst of your anorexia that you still have some body image issues; I think you see yourself as fatter than you actually are...
After pizza sometimes I'll go to La Madaline and have a piece of Sacher Torte. Other than that I'd vote for cobbler.
Yes, we are building expensive permanent bases rather than temporary ones. The reason for this is to continue to have bases there much like we already do in Saudi Arabia and Kuwait. We certainly will scale back the number of soldiers there but we wi...
Much of any debate goes into precisely defining terms. Of course your question depends on how you define good, freedom and right. As far as America being "good" this depends on what you value. We have caused a great deal of suffering while persuin...
Virginity is an interesting concept. It doesn't have a universal meaning. In the US it generally means someone who hasn't had coitus. In other cultures and parts of the world it is defined differently. My ex- told me that when she went to a Catholi...
Some AA groups are rather preachy and part of this 12 step program is turn your live over to God and to recognise an omniscient higher power. There has been a bit of a controversy since courts sometimes order people to go to AA meetings as a conditio...
Healthy leaves falling off? That's a new one on me; all the ones that fell off on my plants yellowed first. I'd check for insect parasites. If you end up with a long bare stem you can air layer it and then replant but try to determine the cause of...
Mastrubation does not make you weak or skinny. This one of those things they told kids to try to get them to stop doing it. It doesn't make you go blind either. After a climax there is a release of prolactin; the same hormone that stimulates lacta...
Not big on Rap though I like some of the Rock/Rap combinations like Linkin Park/Jay-Z. I don't really like Emenim though I have to admit his video "Without Me" is so funny I almost fall out of my chair laughing when I see it. There is a pretty wide...
Iraq is in civil war now. With Saddam Hussein out of the way there was a power vacuum that more than one group would like to fill. Victory or defeat depends on what our objective is and our objective keeps changing.
Reminds me of a previous discussion I was in. As many of you know I don't believe in any kind of god. I also don't believe we have a soul. At one point someone offered to buy my soul. I told him that since I didn't believe I had a soul selling ...
The two things that influence ultimate hieght are nutrition and heredity. Assuming you are eating well there isn't much you can do about the heredity part. Some places sell expensive supliments to support growth but I doubt they work. FWIW, when...
When I lived in an appartment I got a papillion. Papillions are about the smartest and easiest to train of the toy breeds and they are really cute. They aren't real common so you might have to hunt for a breeder. My appartment had a patio where he c...
Considering medicine can now do things that were unimaginable 50 years ago I think that one day we will be able to repair spinal cord injuries. Not sure how long it will before this is feasible but Ithink one day we will be able to do it.
I owned an old Volvo (a '81 DL Wagon that I drove until it blew a head gasket in '97). I found the electrical system to be a bit problematic. I was often fixing small problems like gauges, interior lights, etc that stopped working. Dealers are goo...
I agree that in theory we should vote for the person rather than the party. The problem with this theory is party loyalty in politics. Moderate members of both parties will be pressured to toe the party line in their votes and generally they do. Whe...
I think being able to eat every few hours is a relatively new thing for humans. Previously we ate when there was food and we survived a while when there wasn't. Our bodies have mechanisms to deal with temporary disruptions in our food supply. No dou...
May Day is actually a dual celebration. May 1st is celebrated as the first day of Summer and customs like dancing around a maypole go all the way back to pre-Christian pagan celebrations. It is also a day to promote labor and celebrate advances in th...
in addition to raising LDL it also lowers HDL (good) cholesterol and raises triglycerides and insulin levels. When I was a lad margarine was promoted as healthier than butter because it was made with vegetable oil. Likewise sold shortening (Crisco)...
The politically corrrect term for illegal alien is "undocumented worker."
My doctor told me when I have a gastroenteritis (stomach flu) to starve it out by not eating any solid food and only drinking clear liquids (water, apple juice, clear broth, etc.)
I majored in music in college and I always heard that vocalists should breath from the diaphram with no distinction made for gender.
Usually discharge from the breast is not a sign of serious dissease. You should see your doctor as a precaution though. Discharge can be a symptom of cancer or lesser disseases but it is probably nothing at all.
It stands for "Pig In A Pant Suit." Obvously if you see this "all over the place" you must hang out with some people who really don't like Ms. Clinton.
Y'know honesty is usually the best policy but there are times when discression is the greater part of valour. I know people who are literally honest to a fault. They have trouble even telling little white lies to protect other people's feelings. T...
If you are feeding your baby formula you should probably discontinue it at 12 months. Women in non-industrial cultures often nurse until 3 so mothers who breast feed can probably continue to do so until 36 months if they desire. Personally I don't ...
Currently business depends on cheap illegal labor. Many of the people who pick your vegetables, clean your hotel rooms, and bus your tables are illegal. The current system exploits them. Since they are illegal they have no rights or leverage so busi...
My wife and I liked Blake and Reid. We had a girl so these names went unused.
Our standing in the international community has dropped precipitously since 9/11. The reason for this is not because we aren’t “staying the course” in Iraq. All the claims used to justify the war have been proven false, Iraq had nothing to do with 9/...
While breast development is usually one of the first signs of puberty the rate that breasts develop varies between young women. Most young women reach their maximum size in 3-5 years from the first development while others take 10 years. Some women...
Everyone has to decide for themselves what they believe. My mom is an atheist and my dad seems to be a Deist (he doesn't use a label but he believes in a benevolent creator that is revealed thorough nature so I call him a Deist). I went through a p...
I remember Jimmy Carter flying on a commercial flight once. I vividly remember after he done so being accused of grandstanding.
It depends on who you ask. For the longest time the Roman Catholic Church stated that the Sun revolved around the Earth. Recently they came out to say that whether the Earth revolves around the Sun or the Sun revolves around the Earth depends on yo...
I only stiffed one waiter in the last 20 years. I was driving all day and night to visit my parents and stopped at the half-way point to eat and drink a bunch of coffee. I was nearly the only patron in the restaurant. It seems that a bunch of my ser...
I notice a lot of questions are the same as previous questions. How about if when some asks a question the software searches for earlier similar questions and offers them to the user. Then they would have the option to look over the previous questi...
When I need to drop some weight without exercise I use a technique called "master cleanser." When you do this you eat nothing and drink special lemonade. The standard recpie for this lemonaid is: 2 Tbsp fresh squeezed organic lemon juice 2 Tbsp...
Follow your heart. Sometimes it will lead you the wrong way but it is better to make mistakes with love than to avoid it all together.
The best thing would be to ignore the taunts. When you fight back things tend to escillate. Of course since she started it I wouldn't fault you for responding in kind to her insults. It is just that sometimes this sort of thing gets out of hand.
I assume you are from Michigan. In Michigan if the employees vote to unionize and you work there you have to join the union. Many people in Michigan do resent this because they either want the benefits of belonging to a union without paying for it or...
This will depend on your motherboard. Where did you see 512 MB as the max capacity? If your computer or motherboard manual or datasheet lists 512 MB as the maximum than chances are you can't use more than that. Occasionally there are firmware update...
Your GF is a manipulator; I think that she is playing you like a cheap fiddle. I wouldn't give her the money under these circumstances. You are not responsible for her; you don't even know her that well yet. It is possible that she will attempt to...
Try Godsmack, Slipknot, and Metalica (esp. The Black Album).
You aren't supposed to but lots of people do. If you add cereal to breast milk or formula before the baby can digest cereals it will give the baby a sense of fullness that will make them want to sleep. This practice goes back a long time but now do...
Don't stretch out dropping off your child. Even if they are crying give them a hug and kiss then tell them you have to go. The longer you stay the more it prolongs the agony. My daughter got used to going to pre-school in a few weeks. The first f...
Unless it stays up for over 4 hours it isn't a medical concern (erections lasting over 4 hours can actually damage your penis). The fact that you get erect so easily just means that your plumbing works especially well.
Y'know even happily married men still notice attractive women. We can be flirty and lecherous but this doesn't mean that we are on the prowl; we are just enjoying the scenery. His flirting in front of you and your mom is in poor taste but not an in...
I'm a guy and to tell the truth I don't have a strong preference either way. Shaved or natural are both fine to me. Some women I knew shaved and some didn't. Of course if you are wearing a tiny swimsuit you don't want to have a tarantula down there.
There is always a slight risk of infection when getting a tatoo. Personally I'd recommend holding off until after you deliver since there is a slight chance of it causing your prgnancy complications. If you just have to get some ink be sure to go...
