What's the best way for a out of shape, never was in shape, 38yr old guy to get in shape?

funny, I'm going to work out right now.  NO, you don't have to dedicate every spare moment.  I do one hour or less per day, 5 or 6 days per week.  Even when working 6 12 hour shifts per week, I can manage.\n\n1. Stop eating crap.  By crap I mean fast food, restaurant food, fried food, most packaged snack food, and anything you think is crap.\n\n2. Eat this: chicken breast, turkey breast, tuna, and other fish.  Fruit and veg's obviously.  Also eat fiber one cereal, don't make excuses.  I'll give you some easy things to make if you're interested.\n\n3. Supplements, glutamine, very cheap, safe and good for you.  Whey protein after exercise.  men's multi-vitamin.\n\n75% of getting in shape is diet.\n\n4. exercise.  Weights, look in any mens fitness mag, look for beginner routine, upper body/lower body on alternate days.  \n\n5. Best exercise for overall fitness, jumprope, cheap, quick and effective.  it will absolutely suck at first, but trust me you will get in shape.  burns 3x the cals as running, and tightens entire body.  You won't do 5 minutes straight at first, but build up to 30 minutes over 6 months and you can't not be in shape.\n\n6 underachieve, don't do all this at once.  Clean up your diet, you'll feel better.  Exercise a little, you'll feel better.  You'll see results, you'll clean up diet more, you'll exercise more, it will snowball, don't force it at first.

Do you think the white farmers of zimbarbwe should be allowed to come back to the uk freely?

zafrumi666 I would be most happy to return to the tropical paradise from which I originate if your western countries returned the wealth they stole from it and also stopped exploiting non-western countries for cheap primary resources (crops, minerals, oil, etc).\n\nBlond dyslexic I fully agree with you. Whether or not you believe in Karma most people would agree that at some time what you put around finally comes around. As those white oppressive colonialist farmers sowed, so they are now reaping!

Kristi wants to buy 3 shirts for $18.99each If she has $75.00 how much money will she have?

3 shirts x $18.99 each = $56.97\n$75 - $56.97 = $18.03 left over...\n\nIf we get more complicated, and include tax, it depends on where you live...  I'm going to use the example living in ny, since thats where i live...  I just looked it up its a 8.625% rate\n\nsoo..\n\nTake the $56.97 total x 8.625% = $4.9136625 sales tax\n$4.9136625 + the $56.97 = $61.8836625, which rounded off to nearest penny = $61.88 being the total price\n\nTake the original $75 - $61.88 = $13.12 left over...


where was the first watch made and by whom?

The first reasonably accurate mechanical clocks measured time with weighted pendulums, which are useless at sea or in watches. The invention of a spring mechanism was crucial for portable clocks. In Tudor England, the development of "pocket-clockes" was enabled through the development of reliable springs and escapement mechanisms, which allowed clockmakers to compress a timekeeping device into a small, portable compartment. In 1524, Peter Henlein created the first pocket watch. It is rumoured that Henry VIII (the portrait of Henry VIII at this link shows the medallion thought to be the back of his watch) had a pocket clock which he kept on a chain around his neck. However, these watches only had an hour hand - a minute hand would have been useless considering the inaccuracy of the watch mechanism. Eventually, miniaturization of these spring-based designs allowed for accurate portable timepieces which worked well even at sea. Aaron Lufkin Dennison founded Waltham Watch Company in 1850, which was the pioneer of the industrial manufacturing by interchangeable parts, the American System of Watch Manufacturing.

how the country can move forward economically??what should the government do??

Do people buying things help the economy?\nDo companies do well when their products/services are purchased?\nDo people spend money?\nRaise the salaries and people will spend. They can't spend what they don't have. If the minimum wage was raised enough the economy would boom.


man is a resource like other resources so he should not be given preferential treatment from others, discuss?

A good question, but your assumption is basically flawed. The flaw: Man is NOT like other resources except in that he IS a resource.  The main difference lies in consciousness and decision-making capacity.  A lump of coal or a piece of steel cannot make a decision as to its use or application; a man can.  This, then, is the basic differentiator - mankind is the only sentient resource in your equation and without a sentient conciousness, no resource could truly be considered a resource because there would be no to make the "RESOURCEFUL" application thereof.


This girl i like tells me that she needs her time to decide if she is down?

How much is Derrek Lee worth in fantasy baseball?

Smoltz is the only one you can condider, or you should ask for better offer.  Even Derrek Lee would be out for 6-8 weeks, but that's a simple injury (not like Prior's and Wood's) and Derek Lee has a reputation to be tough (never been to DL before).  That's someone you can trust.  What if you trade for someone and he goes to DL as well?  Now you can't even Lee back!\n\nAnd the most important thing is, you can pick another 1B from FA and have close number to Lee's.  Like Todd Walker (He will be eligible for 1B soon), or even Xavier Nady, Ben Broussard.

The PISCES  Feb. 19 - Mar. 20 \nImaginative, Sensitive, Compassionate, Kind, Selfless, Unworldly, Intuitive and Sympathetic \nEscapist And Idealistic, Secretive And Vague, Weak-Willed And Easily Led \nPisceans are spiritual beings ruled by their feelings. Their journey through life will involve much soul searching and retreat into that hazy world which exists between the real and the unreal. While they are very happy traveling the paths of their inner world, the Piscean compassion and need to help others will ensure they return to the real world regularly. \n\nPisceans tend to go where life takes them. If they do not like their current direction, they simply retreat into themselves until their direction changes. One of the great dangers for the Pisceans is they sometimes become so involved in their dreams and fantasies they find it difficult to separate fact from fantasy. Another danger is that their docile nature makes it easy for others to take advantage of them.\n\nPisceans must not allow themselves to become detached from those around them, because they will become depressed, pessimistic and languid. The gentle Pisceans are usually far too shy to tout their talents, which in the arts may be formidable. Their compassion and empathy seems to be without bounds, which makes them a great ally for anyone.\n \nThe Pisces In Love:\nPisces really need to be needed. They suffer from fear of rejection and low self-esteem. Pisceans are tender and caring, but frequently become the victims of domineering and uncaring partners. They submerge themselves in the experiences of their mates. If their partner is strong and caring, the lucky Piscean will soar to new heights. Conversely, if they find themselves in an unfulfilling relationship, they will prolong the agony--feeling they must deserve the misery—-and assume the role of martyr. \n\nPisceans do best when involved with a solid personality who will enjoy their romantic fantasies. There is no more loyal and caring lover than a Piscean, but their need for emotional and sensual reassurance sometimes leads to flirtations. Pisceans are the most loving and giving of the signs, their ability to select an inappropriate partner is legendary. In the right relationship, their sexuality will blossom and become something of an art form, especially as they get a little older, more experienced and more confident. \n \nFamous Pisceans Include:\nGeorge Washington, Albert Einstein, George Frederick Handel, Elizabeth Taylor, Cindy Crawford, Kurt Cobain, David Gilmour, Gloria Vanderbilt, Gutenberg, Sibil Leek, Ralph Nader, Edgar Cayce, Sidney Poitier, and Elizabeth Barrett Browning  \nIdeal Jobs Include:\nPisceans are well-suited to careers as veterinarians, biologists, artists, doctors, musicians, psychologists and mediums. \nLucky Numbers:\n12, 21, 39, 48, 57 \nPlanet: Neptune \nStar Stone: Moonstone \nElement: Water

How do i increase(double) my friendster's testimonial?

:}\nprovide spiritual opportunities, encourage, edify


"Each hob contains one or more coils made of ferromagnetic material. When an alternating current is passed through these coils, a magnetic field of the same frequency is produced. If a magnetic-based pan is placed on the hob, the magnetic field induces a current in the pan. The internal resistance of the pan causes heat to be dissipated, following the Joule effect. Thus it is the pan itself, and not the cooktop, that heats up and cooks the food. Once the pan is removed from the cooktop, the energy transfer stops. The result is a flame-less method of cooking in which it is nearly impossible to start a fire by forgetting to turn off the stove. Parents won't have to worry about their child touching a hot burner because the cooktop surface remains cool. Changing cooking temperatures is achieved quickly because there is no wait for the hob to heat up, only the pan. Since there is no transfer of heat energy between the hob and the pan, less heat is lost into the air, resulting in a more efficient means of cooking, not to mention a more agreeable cooking environment."\n\n\nhope that help?  we just renovated our kitchen and have installed a Miele induction cooktop and it works wonderfully.  It provides much greater control over temperature...and I am still shocked at how quickly water comes to a boil.  Who knew a stove would be so exciting? haha.

Preparing for a Triathlon...Points for best response.?

I am in a similar position as you, training for the swim of a triathlon relay even thouugh the run would be my strongest leg.  I can run and run but struggle with the swim.  \n\nI have found the same thing too about others being naturally quick and it is frustrating since I know I should be more able than I am.  What I have learned is that to swim comfortably you have to be really relaxed otherwise you burn out quickly because you lose breath.  You have to keep your head very low in the water, facing the floor and push your torso down into the water.  Try to accelerate your stroke under the water as you pull your arm below you, and keep your elbows high when out of the water.\n\nI don't have any training regimes, for training I just try and go as fast as I can for the race distance without getting my breathing and stroke all messed up.


So who came up with the term "homophobic"??

Wait a minute. Who said people with phobias had an inferior mental state? The only person I know that's said that is you. Some people may have seemingly irrational fears but a lot of them make sense ie; fear of heights, fear of snakes etc. It doesn't mean you're mentally inferior. I'll admit the word 'homophobic' has always confused me a bit too but I very much doubt it was someone who was gay who first came up with the word.\n\nOh, okay. I guess that's fair enough.\n\nI've just found something. I'm not after the best answer, I just thought you'd like to know. The answer to who came up with the word is mentioned here: \nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homophobia\nHe's apparently heterosexual.

i am assuming you mean faking an orgasm. yes i have a few times. but for all the guys that read this let me tell you that you CAN know when a woman is faking. when a woman really has an orgasm her muscles contract very very rapidly. this is a very hard action to fake at aproximatly a contraction every .08 seconds. so guys if you tune in to what's happening then she won't be able to fake it anymore.


My brother is gay and he still hasn't told the whole family!  He's told a select few of us, and that's all.  However, he did tell both of our parents.  How he did this:  He took them out to eat and told them plain and simple.  I'm not sure how your family is, but my family is very accepting, and my parents didn't mind so much.  No offense, but if your family is any good - they already have a clue!  So the answer to your question?  The sooner, the better.  Take your folks out to dinner and ask them how best to tell the rest of your family.  Do not be afraid, and know that life goes on, no matter what might happen.  The world will continue turning.\n\nI hope this helps.

what kind of degree do i need for special education?

The type of degree you need to be a certified teacher in special education will depend on your state.  Most states require a four year bachelor's degree in special education, specifically (not just elementary or secondary ed).  \n\nYou will also likely have to pass the PRAXIS exam to become certified in your state.  \n\nThe easiest way to get this information is to contact a local teaching college in your area.  They will be able to give you specific information on what is needed. \n\nAlso, as an aside, due to No Child Left Behind, you may have to be considered "highly qualified" in your subject area.  That is, if you want to teach special education at a secondary level, you may also have to possess a degree or pass a test in all of the subject areas you teach, i.e. reading, math, literature, etc.  This is still up in the air, but if you are serious about getting into special education it's worth looking into.

How can I fix chronic neck pain? I can't afford a doctor.?

is there a free clinic  near you so you can go see a doctor? i would try to do some relaxation techniques or yoga type stretches. Shoulder shrugs- raising your shoulders up and holding and releasing and bring them down and hold- as well as neck rolls with holds may help. if you cna go online maybe check out a yoga website for tips on helping neck pain. One such site is www.yogajournal.com. I just looked for you and am copying the link here: http://www.yogajournal.com/practice/529_1.cfm. \nIt begins like this: \nJudging from the complaints of my physical therapy clients, chronic neck tension is a modern American epidemic. Even the more benign consequences—the painful crick in your neck, the dull headache radiating from the back of your skull—can be mighty annoying. The more serious ones, like pinched nerves, arthritis, and damaged discs, can be debilitating. Fortunately, yoga can do wonders for neck problems while simultaneously teaching safer, healthier posture habits. But some of the poses that can help you, like Sirsasana (Headstand) and Sarvangasana (Shoulderstand), can also do harm if performed incorrectly. It's important to approach them with knowledge of proper alignment.\n\nLet's take a look at the muscles of the back of the neck. Why do they cause so much trouble, and how can we use yoga to help them function better? The primary muscles of the back of the neck are the levator scapulae, which extend from the cervical (neck) vertebrae to each inner upper scapula (shoulder blade). Lying on top of the levators and also inserting on the shoulder blades are the upper trapezius muscles, which originate on the base of the skull and the neck vertebrae. Together, these muscles lift the scapula and backbend the neck. The levators and trapezius muscles also help to turn the head and sidebend the neck.\n\nThe stress of a busy lifestyle with deadlines, difficult people, and lack of sleep certainly tightens neck and jaw muscles. A forward head posture is also a factor for many people. An average head weighs 12 to 15 pounds; when that weight sits forward of the central line of the spine, the muscles on the back of the neck have to work very hard to hold the head up against the pull of gravity. Whether due to stress or poor head-neck alignment, chronic tightness in the levator scapulae and the upper trapezius can lead to significant neck pain. As the muscles pull down on the base of the skull and upper neck, they also pull up on the scapula. All this adds up to compression on the cervical vertebra. Such tightness and compression can lead to arthritis, cause nerve pressure that makes pain radiate down the arm, and increase the likelihood of neck muscle injuries. \nHope this helps.


Why DO men LIE? What is soooo gosh darn hard about telling a WOMEN the truth?

You know people might say it's a lie.  Just think about it this way though; a man is way less mature than a women.  A women might think about the consequences while a man just skims through them and goes by his first instinct which is lying.  Doesn't mean he doesn't love you!!!!!!!!!!!!  When you were young you lied a couple of times to your parents right?  Do you not love them or at that moment did you not love them.  Noo Right!!!!!!!!!!!!  Men were just made with a very ignorant way of thinking.  It's a little complicated to explain at times but just remember to them a lie is not what it seems to us.  To them it's just a part of life and it's nothing.


Why we have a shocky or sizzling feel in hands or legs when we are in certain posture ?

that is your body's reminder to you that you need to move!\n\nusually when that happens, there is a loss of blood circulation from that area, and it "falls asleep." it's a painful reminder sent to us by our muscle tissue that it needs oxygen!


If you are going to have protein shakes (liquid) than you don't have to worry . Other wise simple water with electrolyte powder is sufficient for you. but most important to mention is that you are definitely going to loose for body store fat as that will be the sole source of energy and will be converted into ketones and lactic acid in your body so sugar is must to keep your brain going with salt to keep the nerves working. Is milk allowed in this period?\nThe one simple natural substitute with all electrolytes and sugar is coconut water. See if you can find that for all these days.\nBest would be that you tell me the list of liquid food you can consume and I will tell you which one is the best for you.\n\nAll the best

can someone pls tell me where to look to get grants from the gov. to start a business?

It is hard to find grants to start a business. Unlike the myths that some perpetuate, federal government and even private foundations hardly give grant money for a for-profit business. And yes, grants mean PAPERWORK - lots and lots of it, that is why a cottage industry of grant writers was born.\n\nNonetheless, you can go to the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) http://www.cfda.gov and Grants.gov http://www.grants.gov - these are two sites created by the federal government to provide transparency and information on grants. Browse through the listings and see if you can find any grant that would support a for-profit venture.\n\nEven if you buy books on "how to get grants" or list that supposedly has information on grants -- all of them are mere rehash of what CFDA has, albeit packaged differently. But still the info is the same - hardly any grants for starting a for profit business.\n\nEven SBA does NOT give out grants. From the SBA website http://www.sba.gov/expanding/grants.html \n\n"The U.S. Small Business Administration does not offer grants to start or expand small businesses, although it does offer a wide variety of loan programs. (See http://www.sba.gov/financing for more information) While SBA does offer some grant programs, these are generally designed to expand and enhance organizations that provide small business management, technical, or financial assistance. These grants generally support non-profit organizations, intermediary lending institutions, and state and local governments."\n\nTo find a listing of federal grants for small businesses, go to CFDA.gov --> search by beneficiary --> small businesses. See if there is any available for individuals for starting a business -- THERE'S NONE.\nhttp://12.46.245.173/pls/portal30/CATALOG.BROWSE_BENEF_RPT.show\n\nMost of the federal grants are given to specific target groups with specific requirements (e.g. minority business owners involved in transportation related contracts emanating from DOT - Grant#20.905 Disadvantaged Business Enterprises Short Term Lending Program \n\nGrants are also often given to non profit groups or organizations involved in training or other similar activities (grant 59.043 Women's Business Ownership Assistance that are given to those who will create women's business center that will train women entrepreneurs \n\nFor private grants, you may want to check the Foundation Center's Foundation Grants for Individuals Online. It's a subscription based website ($9.95 per month) but their opening blurb only says that the database is ideal for "students, artists, academic researchers, libraries and financial aid offices." Entrepreneurs are apparently not one of them, so I take it they also don't have listings of private foundations who give grants to would-be entrepreneurs.\n\nhttp://www.cfda.gov\nhttp://www.grants.gov\nhttp://gtionline.fdncenter.org\nhttp://www.powerhomebiz.com/vol66/grants.htm\nhttp://www.sba.gov/expanding/grants.html


Insects that have a elaborate social system?

yes, ants have probably the most advanced and elaborate social systems, as well as the most diverse types.  \n\nthe social bees and wasps, such as honeybees or yellowjackets also have fairly complex social systems.\n\nsome types of termites also have very elaborate systems, with genetically determined castes including different sizes of labourers, and even soldier castes with different weaponry for different purposes, as well as the queen, attendants and the king(s).\n\nthere are also some species of aphid that have the beginnings of a eusocial system - with sterile forms that essentially act as workers to help support the other aphids.

do you think trinidad and tobago will be a surprise winner of the world cup?

They will not win the world cup obviously and they're not expected to. Hell it's the first time they've qualified! That alone is a huge achievement for them.\n\nAs for their group, however, I think they might have a chance of making it to the second round. The group could have been much worst for them.\n\nA lot of critics on those shows on FSC etc have said that they are the cinderalla team of the tournament and can possibly ruin someone's second place in group B. Time will tell. \n\nThey have an OK chance of moving on - but winning the WC....noo way. The WC trophy belongs to Brazil.

Who is the first person to circumnavigate the world by land?

The first person reputed to have walked around the world is George Schilling (USA), in 1904. The first verified walker was David Kunst who, from June 20, 1970, to October 5, 1974, walked 23,250 km (14,450 miles) over four continents. Since completing the first verified walk around the earth Dave has been telling his World Walk Adventure Story at schools and clubs across the USA and Australia.

Hey kids, are M-80's still the preferred instrument of mischievous fun?

When I was a boy, we didn't have M80's.  We had to fart into a coke can (with a PULL top, not one of your devil POP tops) plug it up real fast and repeat the process until it was full enough of gas to ignite.  Then we'd use pubic hair as a fuse and chuck it into churches.  The young whippersnappers of today don't know how easy they have it with their "TEE VEE" and their fellatio and motor cars.

Midwestern USA female\n\nI am about 18 years past my dating days, but back in the day I normally would wait for the guy to call for the first couple weeks of a relationship.  However, if I wanted to kiss someone, I normally did. Once someone said, "I was going to get to that."   \n\nThere were dances you could ask guys--it was expected--never had good luck with those.\n\nMen definitely approached and I usually informed my parents of dates, there were no restrictions--except when I was 17 and was flirting with a 24 year old grad-student--I got a bit of a lecture.  I had a curfew 11 on school nights and 1 on weekends.  I didn't starte dating until I was 15.     \n\nThere are varied physical intimacy from where I am from. I was pretty conservative.

Converting MIDI file to playable MP3...?

MP3 is a lossy compression format, so if you are going to CD, do not downgrade your music to MP3. Use a standard uncompressed format, such as PCM WAVs or a lossless compression format like FLAC: http://flac.sourceforge.net/ . Your MIDI editor or player should have a file export utility, as the sound you get depends on the patch files that you have available and the effects applied to the sound by your MIDI player.\nIf it does not, you can use SoundFont conversion software, like SynthFont: http://www.synthfont.com/ to use any SoundFont library you may have to record your composition to WAV. Then use any CD burning software to create an audio CD from your WAV files.

Bob Dylan original wrote it and recorded it but Hendrix made it sound great.


Since you're at a loss for words, it appears you are attending to give your condolences to a friend.  Funerals in and of themselves serve as a last chance to say goodbye to someone we've lost on this earth and show support and concern for those who've been left behind during their loss.  To know that you're there is usually the kindest gesture you can make to those family members and if you're uncertain as to what to say it's best to keep it simple.  Offer your condolences, your assistance if they should need it and just let the moment occur.  I've learned, however, that a card or a brief note sent a couple of weeks afterwards will mean much more than you know as this is the most difficult time of adjustment after all the arrangements have been made and visits are over.  Just feel good that you're going, God will handle the rest.  You're a blessing.


Since I was born 39 years ago, I have never heard of a African country winning World Cup.   Why is that so?

Does anyone know where Paul Simon wrote the lyrics for "Homeward Bound?

"Homeward Bound" - about life on the road while Simon was touring in England in 1965. The song is reputed to have been written on a platform at Widnes railway station, and has been commemorated as such with a plaque. Other evidence, however, has surfaced indicating that it was actually written at the now-disused Ditton railway station.


How do you make yourself believe in something?

It is much better not to force belief. Sooner or later you will reject it if forced. Best to look at all the evidence and accept what you can, if necessary, piecemeal. For the rest, try and be comfortable to put it on hold until either you learn more or understand more, or grow in maturity. Use also your own gut feeling. That is much more reliable than most of us give it credit for.

I agree that Totti is a moron, especially after the spitting incident.  That is bad sportsmanship in my opinion.

What was the worst movie you ever sat through?


Is tuna okay for my pregnant wife to eat?

Question: Should I steer clear of fish now that I'm pregnant? \n\nAnswer: No, there's no reason to put the kibosh on all fish. Loaded with protein, vitamin D, and omega-3 fatty acids, fish and shellfish are an important part of a healthy diet. But you're right to be cautious. Nearly all fish and shellfish contain traces of methylmercury — a compound known to be harmful in high doses to an unborn baby's or young child's developing nervous system.\n\nFish absorb methylmercury from the water they swim in and the food they eat.  But larger predator fish accumulate the highest levels of methylmercury from their prey because they eat more fish that are higher on the food chain and they tend to live longer. Methylmercury binds tightly to the proteins in fish muscle and remains there even after the fish is cooked.\n\nIn March 2004, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued new guidelines for how women who are trying to conceive, pregnant women, nursing mothers, and young children can limit their exposure to mercury in fish. They now advise eating no more than 6 ounces (about one serving) of canned albacore or "white" tuna. At the Department of Foods and Nutrition at Purdue University, we tend to be a bit more conservative and recommend eating no more than 4 ounces a week. Albacore tuna contains more mercury than the canned "light" variety, which can be relatively low in mercury.\n\nAccording to the FDA/ EPA guidelines, you should also limit yourself to 12 ounces a week (about two servings) of canned "light" tuna and other cooked fish. Once again, our recommendations are more protective — eat fewer than 8 ounces a week of canned "light" tuna. And you should completely avoid shark, swordfish, king mackerel, and tilefish (also called golden or white snapper), tuna steak (fresh or frozen), orange roughy, Spanish mackerel, marlin, and grouper because these fish are at the top of the food chain and contain the highest levels of mercury.\n\nWhile all this talk of mercury may give you the impression that you should avoid fish altogether while you're pregnant, remember that fish is an excellent source of protein, vitamins, and omega-3 fatty acids — all of which are essential for your baby's development. There are plenty of other tasty varieties — salmon, rainbow trout, and canned mackerel, for instance — that contain low levels of mercury and are high in healthy fats. The FDA considers these fish safe for pregnant women to eat twice a week.\n\nFor more information about the risks of mercury in fish and shellfish, check out Purdue University's Fish for Your Health Web site. You can also call the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's food information line toll-free at (888) 723-3366 or visit the FDA's Food Safety Web site. The FDA site also provides a chart of mercury levels in a variety of fish and shellfish


Tell me why do people ask u do u love them???

Not enough love is being shown. Some are too emotionally frazzled to show love fearing of being emotionally hurt. It's so much easier to ask then to show. To show love takes effort.

Is it wrong for my friend to stop believing in god just because I don't believe in him?

Well, go ahead and make her mad, if that's what it takes to get the point across!! She sounds like she has a lot of growing up to do, if she changes her mind about a lifelong belief, just for overhearing a conversation about your belief.  I think that what your friend is going through is finding herself and establishing her own truths through experience. I think we all go through that at some point in life. But, I feel you should talk to her at least to let her know to be her own woman and not just another gulliable follower. Just my opinion.\n-Reggie

How do I reinstall my Restore on Windows XP home ed.?

are u referring to system restore? if so if its not restoring to an earlier point try a different point if u havent already...sometimes system restore doesnt work. you might be out of luck with the restore option. if u want to reinstall windows without losing your files u can boot off the xp cd and when it detects your current xp install you can repair it rather than format and reinstall (dont use recover console option though its just a dos like window commonly used to fix the master boot record. this doesnt apply to u). this is not the greatest method because many programs u installed wont work properly if at all anymore until you reinstall them as well. this is a good option if u just need a functional xp install to burn your files then do a full reinstall with a format. by just trying to reinstall the system restore feature in windows wont help u restore to an earlier time. good luck

have there been any documented cases of kids with two heads?

CAIRO - An Egyptian baby who underwent a 13-hour operation to remove an extra head will soon be able to breathe on her own, a doctor treating her said on Tuesday.\n\nTen-month-old Manar Maged was suffering from one of the rarest birth defects -- craniopagus parasiticus -- a problem related to that of conjoined twins linked at the skull.\n\nThe head that was removed from Manar in the operation which ended early on Saturday had developed no body, and was capable of smiling and blinking, but not independent life.\nStory continues below ↓ advertisement\n\nNo signs of paralysis\nDoctors have already said that Manar could move all her limbs and showed no signs of paralysis after the operation in a children’s hospital in Benha, near Cairo.\n\n“At the moment only about 15 percent of her breathing is through the ventilator and in about 48 hours we will switch the ventilator off,” Abla el-Alfy, a consultant in paediatric intensive care, told Reuters.\n\nAlfy, part of the team of 13 Egyptian doctors who carried out the operation, said it was too early to say whether Manar could have suffered brain damage.\n\n“In four days or less we will do a ... scan of her brain to see what the situation is,” Alfy said.\n\nCraniopagus parasiticus occurs when an embryo begins to split into identical twins but fails to complete the process. One of the conjoined twins fails to develop fully in the womb.\n\nProfessor Lewis Spitz, a leading expert on conjoined twins at Great Ormond Street Hospital in London said the vital question for Manar was whether brain tissue and blood vessels were shared between the two heads.\n\nHe said it was critical that the blood flow away from the surviving twin was not interfered with during separation.\n\nSpitz did not know how many cases of craniopagus parasiticus have occurred or the number of attempted separations. He said the fact Manar survived is a big achievement in itself.\n\n“It must be quite rare. In about 2 percent of conjoined twins the heads are fused,” he said, adding that an incomplete conjoined twin joined at the head is even rarer.\n\nHe said the incidence of live born conjoined twins is about one in 200,000.\nCopyright 2006 Reuters Limited.

I not really a big spender, but i one time i brought this marble roller coaster.


My ex fiancee is gone. I'm w someone new. Gave up ALOT, now I'm not sure I love him still, or if I ever did.

You need to ask yourself what is it that doesn't please me? What is it in my life that is pulling me down so much? Is this guy what I really want or is he just filling in till I find something better? Then you need to quit blaming your X's death on yourself. He made that choice, he didn't half to but he did it. If I was you I would get into a church group or a social group and talk to someone that is specialized in this and maybe talking to them can help you understand things better.


why  do  we  park  on  drive   ways  and  drive  on    parkways?

because the person who named these places have no common sense


Haven't tried it down south, but it works for my face.\n\n1) Get in the shower and turn it on as hot as you can stand it.  The steam will open up the pores in your, um, area.\n\n2) Use an exfoliant to remove any dirt from the pores before shaving.\n\n3) Use only enough shaving cream to lubricate the area.  The common mistake guys use when shaving anywhere is using too much cream.  It clogs up the razor.\n\n4) Use firm, single strokes.  Don't go over any area more than twice, max.\n\n5) When you're done, hold a warm washcloth over the shaved area.\n\n6) Pat dry.  Rubbing increases the chances of irritation.\n\nHope this helps.

I think in 92 Women Olympic Marathon, a runner took a dump during the race, anyone have info?

If I don't eat extremely healthily but work-out 2+ hours each day, will I lose weight?

If weight loss is what you're looking for then here's what you need. The best combination for weight loss is calorie restriction, resistance training, and aerobic work. Let's start with calorie restriction. Over the years I have had personal training clients as well as athletes come to me wondering why they are not losing weight. They tell me they eat right, exercise right, say their prayers, eat their vitamins, etc., and they just can't seem to lose weight. Well, most of the time, once I really get to know them, I find that nutrition is the culprit. You need to know what you're eating. Most of the people I'm talking about all thought they did. \n\nHow do you change this? Well, it may sound tough, but it's not that bad. You need to keep track of what you eat for 2 days over the week, and 1 day over the weekend. Next, go to you're local book store. You can find charts, books, and computer programs that will help you analyze the foods you ate. Another suggestion would be to take your dietary recall to a nutritionist or exercise physiologist at your local college and let them find it for you. \n\nThese recalls will tell you how many calories you're getting plus where they are coming from. For example, are they coming from protein, carbohydrate, or fat. It will help you see where you stand nutritionally. \n\nNext, you need to get on a good strength program. When a person is losing weight, the weight comes from fat, as well as muscle. That's kind of an unfortunate thing because muscle is an important thing when keeping metabolism high. There is enough research out there to safely say that when going through a phase of high intensity aerobic work and calorie restriction, strength training decreases muscle wasting. So, in short, strength-train. It's important. I wouldn't strength-train for anymore that 20 to 30 minutes. You can get what you need in a short period of time. \n\nAfter the strength training, it's time to get on the bike, treadmill, stepper, track, whatever. Keep your workouts to 30 minutes and up in order to burn the calories. Train between 3 to 5 times per week. Keep your heart rate at 60 to 90% of heart rate max. \n\nDon't look at losing weight as some mysterious monster that you can't get the reins on. Look at it as nothing more than stored energy. That's what fat is?stored energy. If you had a tank full of energy and it kept filling up higher and higher, what would you do to keep your tank from growing too large from the excess energy? Well, burn some of the energy off. That's what you need to do to lose weight. Keep the "energy in" lower than the "energy out" and abracadabra, you're losing weight. \n\nNote: You need to change your routine every 2-3 weeks in order to get the best results. \n\nMonday \n\n\nLeg Press 2x12 \nChest Press 2x12 \nLat pull down 2x12 \nShoulder Press 2x12 \nDB Curl 2x12 \nTricep kickback 2x12 \nAerobic Work  30 or more minutes. \n\n Click Here For A Printable Log Of Monday! \n\nTuesday \n\n\nAerobic work 30 or more minutes of aerobic exercise.\nWednesday \n\n\nSame as Monday.\nThursday \n\n\nSame as Monday, or take a day of rest.\nFriday \n\n\nSame as Monday.

Can I protect audio files from being e-mailed to non-paying individuals?

not that I know of. \nOne suggestion I might make is to set up a web site with a members only area.  You could email a password to your paying customers, who could then sign into the site and download the music themselves.  Of course, this sort of thing requires a bit of web design knowledge (which I have, if you're interested) and $$$.

Is Iran going to be taken out of the world cup because of the war?

Thats a good Question, but the answer is No. The World Cup is the most well known sporting event across the world, and if something like that took place, I beleave it would have a bad effect, not only on the World Cup, but on the sport of Soccer as well, and seeing how soccer is starting to become a huge sport in the states, I hope something like a war between two countrys would not have an affect on such a beautiful sport.


why do african americans believe that the government and police are specifically trying to keep them down?

As long as there are people in this world, like Jesse Jackson, and Al Sharpton, this country will have racial problems.\n\nNoone is asking people to forget the past of their ancestors.  I do not forget the horrible problems my Irish ancestors went through, but thankfully their are not any (that I know of) people demanding I get something for their suffering.  \n\nAsk Jesse Jackson, next time he speaks, to try to speak about another human being without using the color of their skin.  People with influence like him is why there is so much racial tension.\n\n\n---\n\nredvegetable, (above), are you saying that Blacks have different 'needs' than Whites?\n\n---\nditty, (below) are you saying there are no black against white crimes?  How many of those have there been?\n\n---\nHabilis (below) most of your response was a good answr to the question.  I have to disagree with the Georgia flag thing.  That is insinuating that the flag represents racisim.  The confederate flag represents history.  The civil war was not about slavery as some like to say.  Slavery became an issue in the war when lincoln saw the opportunity to bring blacks from the south on to fight for the north.

At school i always try my hardest and i do my work because i want a gd job but my mates call me a geek?

Yup - I was called a geek - I didn't have many friends until sixth form (year 12/13 now - dunno what it is in the US).\n\nMy wife was the same.\n\nBut now when we meet those people who gave us a hard time - they're still living at home, have local jobs that don't pay much and are still horrible to other people.\n\nWhereas we have left gone to Uni where we made real friends who like us as we are and are frankly just so much happier than those we wanted to impress at school.\n\nSo you can keep cool - but then you'll end up in the same place.  Or you can stuff them, and go for it - in the long-run you'll be so much happier without them after all what kind of friend insults you?  Friends should stick up for you and encourage you to do your best.\n\nKeep the faith!

i was wondering, how do the mother's get twins children or tripplets?

Twins can occur either because a single embryo splits in two during the early stages of development (when it's only a couple of cells) or because two eggs are fertilized.  More than two babies can probably theoretic result from the splitting of one embryo twice (but I've never heard of this one happening) or two eggs are fertlized and one of them splits into two babies (i.e. you'd have two identical twins and one ferternal one).  Triplets are extremely rare, and more than three babies almost never occurs naturally.  Multiple pregancies are more common with in vitro fertlization, where multiple eggs are fertlized and injected into the mothers uterus and sometimes more than one implants.  IVF most often produces a single child, but may result in up to seven.  However, even just twins are typically smaller than other children at birth, and triplets and beyond typically have serious medical problems.  A pregancy resulting in more than three healthy babies is virtually unheardof.  A uterus can only hold so many babies.  Quadruplets, quintuplets, etc. are typically born extremely prematurely and there usually wasn't enough resources to go around even when the were in the uterus, so they wind up with congenital and developmental disabilities.

Four to six months usually lower centrals are first.  The rest seem to follow in a predictable pattern, but all babies are different as someone else mentioned.  They usually get their last primary teeth (baby teeth) around thirty to thirty six months.  Give or take a few months.  These will be the last teeth in the back of their mouth.  Permanent molars will grow in behind these last "baby" molars.  While all other permanent teeth will replace existing "baby" teeth.

Why do I have dark circles AROUND my eyes?

Here are somethings that can cause this problem.\n\n1. Lack of sleep.\n2. Inherited condition having a family with the kind of skin that makes dark circles more likely.\n3. Fluid retention which causes puffiness that may cast shadows.\n4. Aging which thins and relaxes the skin around the eyes.\n\nDark eye circles - treatments and remedies \n\n1. Powdered fenugreek and milk are said to tackle dark circles. Apply a paste of fenugreek mixed in milk on dark circles in the night. Wash off in the morning and watch dark circles vanish for good.\n\n2. Freeze grated cucumber. Massage the grated cucumber ice cubes on the eyes. \n\n3. Soak cotton wool in cucumber juice or potato juice & apply around the eyes.\n\n4. For eye puffiness, any tea bag (herbal is better, especially eyebright), slightly cooled, placed on the eyes while you rest.\n\n5. To lighten dark circles under your eyes, wrap a grated raw potato in cheesecloth and apply to eyelids for 15-20 minutes. Rinse with warm water.\n\n6. The best overall eye tonic is eyebright (an herb). Make a tea of it and either use the teabags or soak cotton balls or soft gauze in the tea and apply to eyes as a compress while lying down.


who invented the QWERTY  keyboard? what did the first generation computer weigh ,  what was its lenght,height?

For the keyboard question, click on the link below:\n\nhttp://inventors.about.com/library/inventors/bltypewriter.htm\n\nAs for the weight of the first generation of computers...they varied.  ENIAC (an acronym for Electronic Numerator, Integrator, Analyser and Computer) was a leviathan in the computing world and weighed in at over 30,000kg (the average small car is 1000kg). This beast occupied over 90 sq/m (1,000 square feet) of floor space.  It has over 17,000 thermionic valves and needed thousands of kilowatts of electricity to operate.  It has 20, 10 digit accumulators, clocked at 100Hz and could do 5,000 additions and over 300 multiplications per second.  ENIAC was built for the US Army's Ballistics Research Labs but came in too late for major use in World War 2 (1945) and was way over budget.\n\nI did an assignment for this in 2001 and it was a fascinating subject.  Incidentally, the abacus is considered by many to be the worlds first computing device...invented over 4000 years ago.

Take frequent, small sips of water or a rehydration drink and small bites of salty crackers. \nTry to increase your fluid intake to at least 1 qt (1 L) per hour for 1 to 2 hours or until diarrhea symptoms disappear. \nBegin eating mild foods the next day or sooner, depending on how you feel. \nTry yogurt that contains live cultures of Lactobacillus. Not all forms of yogurt do; read the label carefully. Frozen yogurt does not contain Lactobacillus. \nAvoid spicy foods, fruits, alcohol, and caffeine until 48 hours after all symptoms have disappeared. \nAvoid chewing gum that contains sorbitol. \nAvoid dairy products for 3 days after symptoms disappear. \nNonprescription medication may be helpful in treating your diarrhea. Use nonprescription antidiarrheal medication if you have diarrhea for longer than 6 hours. Do not use nonprescription antidiarrheal medications if you have bloody diarrhea, a high fever, or other signs of serious illness.

Where can you get dental care on a sliding scale in Los Angeles?

I dont know LA that well, but I know Orange County pretty well. Ther is an organization called We Care. Also, ucla has a fantastic dental program, and they have a clinic. Western Dental Centers offer affordable dental care, although it isn't on a sliding scale. If you need very inexpensive dental care for a child, the Boys and Girls club of Anaheim, CA has a dental clinic. I voulenteered there for years. You can call the dental society in your county or in Orange county, and they will have information on sliding scale clinics. \n\n good luck :)

if you got money out of an ATM that was not your bank how dose that bank get the money back?

It takes it directly from your account and puts it in theirs.  It's a "paper" withdrawal. They don't literally exchange money back in forth.

It is normal to prescribe low-dose hormones or low-dose hormone birth control pills to women going through menopause to relieve some of their symptoms, such as hot flashes.  \n\nThere have been a variety of studies questioning the safety of hormonal treatment for women.  There is a link below providing a summary of some of these issues.\n\nIf you are concerned, you should discuss this with your doctor or seek a second opinion.\n\nI have also included a link to information about premature menopause, generally defined as menopause occuring in women under the age of 40.  There is no way to reverse menopause once the process has started, so the birth control pills your doctor prescribed are presumably meant to help with your symptoms.


Im writing a book and I am wondering how many paragraphs per page I need?

Depends on what font size you'll be using and what size the actual page is. If you are writing a children's book, 1-2 paragraphs per page depending on what level of reading you are targeting.\n\nOtherwise, I wouldn't think of making a formula for your book. Since you are writing it, put down as many or few paragraphs as you think fit.

Which is the most superior plant part of a flowering plant?

the flower is what separates it from other plants, attracting birds and insects to pollenate the plant. however the plant requires all of its "parts" for survival, eg leaves with chlorophyll for photosynthesis, roots for water and ion uptake, and the stem with the xylem and phloem for water nutrient transport. so, no part is superior to another, but the flower appears to be the most "advanced" part.

STAY FRIENDS...I ruined the relationship I had with my best friend because I LOVED the way he made me feel.

The good thing is, is that we were able to save our friendship and things are good between us. But there is nothing better than having that closeness between you and a friend. Relationships change all of that!

uninstall yahoo messenger. restart your computer. reinstall yahoo messenger. when you click through the screens to install the messenger click slowly. read ever word on the popup screens. don't just click next and then next just to get through the installation process quickly. there will be a screen that pops up asking you if you want to install the toolbar also. by default it is checked for you, you have to uncheck it before you click next. if thats doesn't work, go to microsofts website. download a program call windows defender. install that program. it will detect the toolbar as spam. the program should remove the toolbar.


What's the benefit for filing a grievance with a employer who uses false info on exit evaluation?

It depends on how much hassle you want to go through. If you are worried about future job references,legally all an employer can say is when you worked and what your wage was. It doesn't matter what is written down. I'm not sure if you can file a grievance as an ex-employee but your work should have some system to deal with termination disputes. You have to decide what you hope to get out of your grievance and whether it would be worth your time.


How can i be  an authorize dealer of brand name products?

You might want to start by contacting the manufacturers of the shoes and clothing and ask them their criteria for allowing someone to become an authorized dealer of their products.  If you don't have a business plan, yet, you might want to consider drafting one soon, as they will likely want to see such a plan before they commit to anything.  Good luck with your venture.

if the world was created by the big bang, then what created the big bang?

The Big Bang theory itself, doesn't say anything about the *cause* of the explosion. It describes only how the Universe evolved after the explosion took place.\n\nThe reason is twofold.\nFirst of all, the models physicists use to describe the Universe, like General Relativity and Quantum Mechanics break down in the extreme conditions immediately after the initial explosion. However, they do a very good job in describing the existing data afterwards. And with the recent high precision measurements by satellite of the cosmic background that is very impressive.\n\nThe second reason is that GR and QM are only approximations of the correct theory. In fact they give different answers in the region were they overlap. Fortunately this happens only in extreme conditions, close to black holes for instance. And, you guessed it, in the microseconds after the Big Bang.\n\nConclusion: there is therefore a lot of room left to speculate. Not for the scientists though, because there are no data available for these initial moments of the Universe. No data means, nothing to test theories on.

The Need for Sleep \n \nSleep Is a Basic Human Need\nSleep is a natural part of everybody's life, but many people know very little about how important it is, and some even try to get by with little sleep. Sleep is something our bodies need to do; it is not an option. Even though the exact reasons for sleep remain a mystery, we do know that during sleep many of the body's major organ and regulatory systems continue to work actively. Some parts of the brain actually increase their activity dramatically, and the body produces more of certain hormones.\n\nSleep, like diet and exercise, is important for our minds and bodies to function normally. In fact, sleep appears to be required for survival. Rats deprived of sleep die within two to three weeks, a time frame similar to death due to starvation.\n\nAn internal biological clock regulates the timing for sleep. It programs each person to feel sleepy during the nighttime hours and to be active during the daylight hours. Light is the cue that synchronizes the biological clock to the 24-hour cycle of day and night.\n\nProblem Sleepiness Has Serious Consequences\nSleepiness due to chronic lack of adequate sleep is a big problem in the United States and affects many children as well as adults. Children and even adolescents need at least 9 hours of sleep each night to do their best. Most adults need approximately 8 hours of sleep each night.\n\nWhen we get less sleep (even one hour less) than we need each night, we develop a "sleep debt." If the sleep debt becomes too great, it can lead to problem sleepiness – sleepiness that occurs when you should be awake and alert, that interferes with daily routine and activities, and reduces your ability to function. Even if you do not feel sleepy, the sleep debt can have a powerful negative effect on your daytime performance, thinking, and mood, and cause you to fall asleep at inappropriate and even dangerous times.\n\nProblem sleepiness has serious consequences – it puts adolescents and adults at risk for drowsy driving or workplace accidents.
