Breastfeeding is the best for your baby. In pre-industrialized societies it is common for mothers to breastfeed their children until they are about 3. A worthy goal for most women is to shoot for 6 months-1year. Things can get complicated for young...
Only at restaurants when I can buy it by the glass. Nobody else in my household likes wine at all so it would be a waste to open a bottle just for me since I only want a glass or two with my meal and the rest goes bad. On New Years I'm the only one...
I never thought much of white chocolate though sometimes dishes that have some white chocolate in them can be good. My favorite chocolate is Toblerone Dark. I got hooked on Tobler chocolates when the bike shop I worked at ordered big bags of chocol...
Coming from Michigan I was puzzled when I found in Texas that people called me a Yankee. In Michigan a Yankee is someone from New England. Then someone passed on the following explanation from E. B. White To foreigners, a Yankee is an American. T...
Call me old fashion but kid's role models should be real people, their parents, inspiring teachers, motivating coaches, etc. I have no idea what Miley Cyrus is like in real life. She plays a role. Even when you see her in "real life" she is playin...
The pixel number of a camera is not as important as a lot of people think. A high quality 2 MP camera with an excellent lens can take impressive pictures that look great so long as they aren't blown up too much. The heart of any camera is the len...
Mainly the smell of body fluids involved if you know what I mean.
I tried it. After water weight I lost about one pound/day. I don't believe all the claims behind it but as fasts go it seems easier than most for some reason. Like any fast master cleanse can be dangerous if you have certain underlying medical c...
Skydive. I have a fear of heights. I can deal with most day-to-day things but I doubt I'd ever be able to jump out of an airplane.
The way a lot of Christians believe God is good, Christianity is the one true religion, and everything else is evil to be overcome. This viewpoint can lead people to be xenophobic and narrow minded.
Carter looked at energy as a national security issue. As long as we are dependent on foreign nations for oil we are at their mercy. Eliminating this dependency is one approach to this problem. Getting into resource wars is another. Much of th...
Frankly for most people beer is an acquired taste.
Marketing is everything. Everything has to be sold, our revolutionary war was largely sold to the rest of us by a few wealthy folks who weren't fond of their profits being split with Great Brittan. Durring the red scare corporations sold us on th...
I don't know but in the interest of bettering society I decided to get an objective answer to this pressing question. I googled "converse shoes" and "puma shoes" "converse shoes" got 1,140,000 matches "puma shoes" got 2,760,000 matches Ther...
Considering that the US is developing new Nuclear weopons now (like we didn't have enough all ready) we lack the moral high ground to forbid other nations from doing the same.
I'd say that Coke Blak is the best. I just can't bring myself to pay over $1 for a tiny bottle.
I'd like to see McCain debate Gore Vidal or Noam Chomsky. Now that would take courage!
How much chocolate do you eat? After reading of the potential health benefits of chocolate I've been trying to eat more of it. Currently I eat on bar of dark chocolate every day. As long as you aren't going overboard I say keep enjoying your chocolate.
Abortion is neither good nor bad, it is either the natural or unnatural ending of pregnancy before the embryo or fetus is capable of surving. Since less than half of all zygotes naturally make it to term most abortions are in fact spontaneous rather t...
If it is just a red mark I wouldn't worry about it. If the mole comes back larger than it was before, or if it is oddly colored or shaped you should have a doctor look at it.
I'm not a big fan of gospel but I saw Take 6 in concert years ago and have been a fan ever since. There harmony and ensemble are the best of any group I've heard anywhere.
Radon is a short lived gas. It's most stable isotope has a half-life of only 3.8 days. Radon is produced from the radioactive decay of other radioactive elements that are often trace elements in rock and building materials. Radon gas is produced con...
Actually vegetarianism is trendy for teenage girls. Vegetarianism is growing the most quickly among teenage girls and now 11% of teenage girls identify themselves as vegetarian. I just hope these young vegetarians stick with it even when it is no l...
Lupus is a chronic autoimmune disease were a person's immune system starts attacking their own body. I have a sister-in-law with this affliction though hers seems to be well controlled with medication.
If I was already dead they could do what ever they needed to do. btw, capers are quite good on pizza.
Homeschoolers used to have trouble getting into college but based on how well homeschoolers have been doing in college many colleges now actively seek homeschoolers. One of the advantages of homeschooling is time efficiency. Kids who go to public s...
While meat eaters usually center their meals around meat vegetarians usually use hearty grain, pasta, or bean dishes. Red beans and rice is one of my favorites. Veggie pizza is always good with or without cheese. If you still eat eggs and dairy qu...
Changing your diet is a long term project. Try to find a few healthy foods you actually like and eat them. Keep trying new things and since our tastes do change over time try foods you previously didn't like. Good luck!
Measure the bolt circle of your current 3 piece crank. The size of your crank spider will determine the smallest chainring you can fit. The trials bikes I saw with tiny chanrings all had very long one piece cranks.
By the time of Martin Luther the RCC was hopelessly corrupt. The Protestant movement both challenged the RCC's ultimate authority and forced the RCC go through many reforms of its own. Protestantism both started a new branch of religion and revitaliz...
Definitely the food tastes better over charcoal but it is a lot more hassle than a gas grill. I've had both. For a long time we used charcoal but now we cook out so often that we use a propane grill. The grilled food still tastes great but it does...
If the perpetrator decapitates a random person than walks around nonchalant with the victim's head I think he is probably completely nuts.
What part is the "size of a small drinking cup?" If you are asking about a bike with a chainring the size of a drinking cup (chainring is the sprocket on the crank that the chain goes on) than this is an extremely low geared bicycle. If you saw a 20...
Doesn't seem like such an effective ad to me. Is that really the best McCain's crew can come up with? That popular people have to be shallow and lack substance? I understand what they are trying to do, take his strength and use it against him. I ju...
Ani Difranco said that being bi increased her odds of finding a suitible mate. That's one way of looking at it anyway.
The best patty I found to grill is Morningstar Farms Grillers Prime. I like BBQ sauce, mustard, and pickles on my burgers. I also love grilled corn on the cob. I do it right in the husk then when I shuck it all the silk comes right off. Some othe...
When you are a vegetarian lots of people will give you their opinion of your life choice. I've been a vegetarian for 28 years and I still get comments. At a restaurant I asked if a dish was vegetarian and another diner interjected, "y'know the cattl...
The only accurate way to determine your body fat percentage is to be ground up and analyzed. Most people don't need to know their exact percentage that badly so body fat is estimated. Underwater weighing, skin fold calipers, and body impedance are me...
Not eating is called a "fast." In fact we get the word breakfast as our first meal of the day from breaking the fast you had been on since your last meal the previous day. 4 days isn't a terribly long time not to eat. If you are in good health you...
Anthropologists believe the first religions were animalist. People worshiped powerful animals and imagined that killing them set their imprisoned spirits free. Not all agree but many believe that matriarchal (female centered) religions appeared next ...
I'm not crazy about the Catholic church for a couple of reasons. It claims to be the ultimate conduit of God but has a lot of skelatins in its closet. If it was truely guided by God would it have arrested Galileo for observing that the Earth in fac...
Only when it's done right.
I like hummus on whole wheat bread. Tasty and not too many calories. Fruit is also great but sometimes I need something more substantial. I like salty crunchy snacks so I eat a lot of pretzels. Otherwise I'd be going for chips.
There are all kinds of vegetarians and near-vegetarians. As a vegetarian I was happy to hear that my future roommate was also vegetarian. It turns out his idea of vegetarianism was not to eat red meat one day a week. I've met some people over the ...
Beavis and Butthead.
I use a program called PSP Video 9. It is free and works pretty well. The videos it converts usually play fine on the PSP but I found that I have to go into the options and increase the audio or I won't be able to hear it them with the volume turned ...
Buying your own insurance is generally much more expensive than getting it through your employer. Employers get a discount by pooling the risk of a number of employees. You can try but chances are any insurance you get will not cover preexisting co...
Hard to narrow it down to one. If I had to pick one it would probably be: You gotta dance like nobody's watching, dream like you will live forever, live like you're going to die tomorrow and love like it's never going to hurt. --Meme Grifsters
What other candidate did the right wing nutjobs hate? let's see, Clinton? During Clinton's tenure he balanced the budget, presided over the longest peacetime expansion in our history. While he was in office an average of 250,000 new jobs were create...
Actually male bettas are pretty good community fish. Their agression is mainly against other male bettas. Choose other community fish that do not have long fins, are about the same size as your betta, and doesn't look to much like a betta since somet...
