Should I drop the AP class?

I'm going to be a freshman in the fall, and now I'm rethinking my class choices. Right now my schedule includes Honors English, Honors Geometry, Honors Biology, German 2, Band, a semester of Health, a semester of Gym and AP Human Geography. I'm a very good student, but I don't know if I'll be able to handle the workload I'll have every night, especially with extracurriculars. I've never been fond of social studies, either. Should I drop the AP Human Geography class and take either World History or Global Studies?

We do not worship Joseph Smith. We honor him because he communed with God and brought about the restored church. He is revered as a prophet. We are blessed because of his sacrifice of his own life for the restored Gospel of Jesus Christ.

What do I do about my Daughter who's lazy and doesn't give a crap about school?

I have a teenage daughter and all she likes to do is shop for designer clothes and lay around on the beach all day (we live in Miami Beach), or be at the gym, or with friends partying. She hasn't been doing well in school at all, yet she's very pretty and very popular. She doesn't have motivation to study and focus on academics. She doesn't want to have a job. She doesn't care about college. She is simply lazy. She says she's not interested in anything unless its modeling or something glamorous. I told her that's not reliable and she needs to set a goal and needs an education. Then she said her goal was to marry a Billionaire and be taken care of forever! What do I do about this girl? I'm worried about her, and her mother just spoils her, I have too, but now that's she's almost 17 I'm getting worried about her future, and I'm afraid she won't even graduate high-school on time!

How do you define riding levels (english riders)?

To me it is no experience, beginner, advanced beginner, intermediate, and advanced, and there is no one scale you can go by. And I'm not going to make one either. At a summer camp you may be advanced while at a competitive hunter-jumper school you may be beginner. If your looking for a horse and you aren't sure what level they are (for example if it says "no beginners please." well obviously your not a beginner but that could mean a lot of things) then call the owners and ask.

Do I have an eating disorder?

I tend to binge eat & accidentally purge. I don't starve myself and I don't vomit on purpose. I can't go more than a few weeks without vomiting. I'm 5 ft 4 in & weigh around 130 lbs. I used to weigh 115 before I got pregnant. When I gave birth almost three years ago, I weighed 174 lbs. I go to the gym so I can maintain my current weight and so I can eat whatever I want. I think I vomit because I get so full. Sometimes I don't know when to stop. I usually keep a pretty normal diet, but I find myself binging about once or even twice a week. This has been going on for years.

The likelihood of me going to a UC? Chances mere impossible? Is it still possible?

While i know my grades are not nearly as close as what UC wants. My GPA is 2.8, I know terrible and no matter what there's no excuses. No one but to blame myself. There are things that affected me but i guess i was not strong enough to withstand it (i been facing a lot of things and well they affected everyday life and now I'm paying for it) Now i know what i really want to pursue. I want to get into the forensics science field. I want to go to a UC that has a good program. But my grades and GPA is not good at ALL. I tried to see if funeral director was something i would pursue cause my community college offers a program. But in the end it was just not for me. I'm 19 years old. (In community college) I'm lost. I need advice. What can i do? Raise GPA? My question is What do i do? (Please do not say things that are quite obvious, i know this is my fault, i know i have a horrible gpa, i know that it's competitive, i know that right now i won't be able to go to a UC from my gpa) But i need to know if there still a chance that somehow if i work from now on very hard is there a possibility that i can go to a UC.

Okay, so I fcuking hate football. And pretty much sports in general. I'm a big guy and I hit the gym a lot, so growing up I got told I should be a football player.

Girlfriend of 5 years let me and this happened, don't know what to do.?

If she can do that to you then she truly doesn't love you like you love her. If after 5 years she can do that then perhaps she was never the one for you. If she comes back to you after it not working out with this guy then what is stopping her from doing it again. You should move on and start looking for your true soulmate.

Advice on a nervous pony please?

It sounds like your doing a really good job, I think it's just a case of the horse getting used to his new owners and surroundings. When I got my horse I brought her home and was so worried at how spooky and restless she was, like your horse she hadn't had much human contact with previous owners, but it took her about 3 weeks to settle down and once she was in a routine she soon found her place and relaxed. I think doing the same things in the same order around about the same time each day will help because then he will learn what to expect and realise that your not going to confuse him. Hope it helps, don't be disheartened, I was at first but it does just take time by the sounds of things youl make a lovely little pony of him :) good luck

Need some comments on what to do and etc.?

Todayy, I was suposed to go to the gym with my girlfriend. The plan was to go for. Me to go att 7 in the morning and she would go at around 9. But last night I only slept for 2 hours, which means I went to bed att around 5 or 6. When I woke up, I decided not to go because I didn't look well and I knew I was going to feel well either. And so, I text my girlfriend saying I was not going to go and I explained why I was going to go and I looked really horrible and tired. And of course I said good morning and that I loved her. Unfortunity the text that said that I wasn't going to go didn't go through.whhen she woke up she called me but I was fast asleep. When she got to the gym, she went looking for me for about 30 minutes.she couldn't find me and decided to call me. She asked me where was I. And I said at home. She said wow I was at the gym for 30 minutes looking for you why didn't you text me and I told her that I did and I tried to. And we had a 10 minute conversation about why I ddidnt text her and how I tried to text her. After the phone call, she texts me saying that she was really disappointed and wished that I cared more. My reaction was WTF what am I suposeed to do, I'm already sorry. And now it feels like she is putting me down because I "made" her go and now she is mad at me. I don't know what to do anymore. Somethi g like this happened before but this time she isn't on her period. Please leave some comments on what I should do and what you think about this situation.

OK, so i ride this horse named Luke. He is real sweet and stuff, but when i place my first foot in the stirrup, he turns and nips at me. I have checked him 100s of times for sore spots, and there is no heat. And the other day, he had a check-up thing with the vet, and she didn't find any sore spots either. He also nips when i get up on him bareback. I gave him a week with no riding just encase he was sore in a spot, and he still nipped. Any ideas on how to fix this? No one else has been riding him, just me.

My heart won't slow down?

I've been completely off antidepressants for about a month and even though I'm not doing very well off of them, I'm still functioning enough to go to work and do my sport which is riding horses, and blah blah. It is all I can do to not get so frustrated at work since I work retail and you have to have TONS of patience with customers and those coupons and coworkers stealing your sales. It's all I can do not to walk out but so far, I've managed to stay inside and keep the job. I am very stressed out about money, and feeling like I'm going nowhere in life, which I'm really not. Each day is just the same, with no moving forward. But I refuse to take the medication again bc I'm angry and stubborn and don't want the chemicals. When I'm about to get my period, it's like c'mere let me strangle you. I take evening primrose, St. Johns Wart and 5-Htp but really, I just started the last two today. I'm thinking being off the antidepressants is making my heart race like this. I have a cardiologist appt on monday. I'm on beta blockers but they only have been stopping my heart from pounding but it still races. In all, I feel terrible. But I have been in therapy for 6 years and have skills to deal with this. I'm just trying to hold on, keep going, putting one foot in front of the other. I'm scared I'll keep feeling worse. I feel like I need anger management at work. Being at the mall full time is WAY overstimulating for me, who is laid-back, type B, and introverted. This is all very hard. It hurts a lot. It's hard to find a new job, I feel helpless. At times, I feel alien to the world. I look at people and it's like they aren't even the same species as me. Sometimes, when I'm in the crowded mall, there are freakin people everywhere and it feels like a plague. I stop bc someone ran into me, crushed my foot with their baby stroller, or cut in front of me, and I just try to make all the noise seem far away. it's like in the movies when someone is thinking or stressed and everything blurs out and spins and spins around them, and they are standing there and all the noise is far away and they are staring into space. I'm so immature sometimes. I don't know where I got this notion that someone is going to save me, but it's all I wish for sometimes. I feel like I'm dependent and lazy. All I want is to be free. I don't feel like I'm going to make it in this life. I never have, really. And I don't want medicine to make me think otherwise. That seems so unnatural. Everything seems so huge and like a rat race to live. I don't want to run with the other rats. Please help, have you or anyone you know ever felt this way??

What do you think about the Intro to my story?

hi there, if you want my honest advice, it's not bad but its not great either. It's a bit muddled and rushed and a bit of a jumble to read, too much is happening at once. I got a little confused, you need to slow down first of all. It seems a little rushed, to make it a good piece of writing you need to put a bit more time into it and maybe try to slowly build the suspense and make it more gripping to read. as i said build it up slowly, dont introduce too many people at once. its all just constructive criticism and i hope it help and i havent offended. good luck xx

How to remove mildew and mold from a leather saddle?

I personally wouldn't use bleach on leather. I have had to clean mold and mildew off of my saddle before. Just use some water on a cloth to get the excess dirt, etc. off. Then just use some saddle soap to finish.That should work just fine, it has for me.If the weedkiller is stubborn you can use some dishwashing soap then a clean wet cloth.Good luck!

How should I proceed in my love?

How to remain motivated? How to lose weight?

I have no support. I'm not complaining, but it's difficult to remain motivated when you have no one to keep you going. Whether you fail or not, it's only yourself your damaging. And if you're like me, you really don't care. I want to care, but I don't... at least not enough. Here's the catch: I'd like to lose 50lbs. I'm a medium-framed female, 5'7", 180lbs approx. Eating healthy isn't the issue. I can control myself there... when I care to. I don't eat dairy - dairy is miserable for you. Look it up if you don't believe me. Example diet plan - no dairy please? Simple exercise plan? I can get access to a gym, but it won't be for about two months. I have a 10lb weight and two 5lb weights. I can't exercise outside, I get heat sickness VERY easily. I'm not just complaining - I literally puke and break out in rashes. Once I get on this plan, how can I remain motivated to keep going. I really want to for my health mostly. I have no confidence issues.:) Sex would be nice for exercise, but I'm not getting that right now... SO. Help? I want to start ASAP, but I don't want to if I know it will just fail. It does every time.

Best way to slow it all down and regain confidence?

Last thursday, was the first time i cantered my horse to a jump. we have been taking lessons since last fall. i've been riding for 40 years and the horse is an 8 yr old ottb i have owned for 3 years. long and short of it, i misunderstood my instructor, and cantered my horse to a fence before getting a feel for my just shortened stirrups. he cleared that 2 1/2 foot jump by a good extra 3 feet and catapulted me out of the tack. i was hanging in mid air, suspended far above him. through Gods Grace, when he landed it pulled me backinto the tack, but he was galloping off and i almost flipped right off the back of him with my feet flying up over his ears. i then overcompensated and fell forward, hanging from his neck and over his shoulder. he would have smashed my face into the arena wall except for when i sayed whoa, he did and i dismounted, whhile he slowd down and landed on my feet with reins in hand about 2 feet waway from the arena wall. we did finish the lesson with a cnater over a lowered fence, but my consfinence was GONE. today i tried to jog a few baby fewnces but every time we landed he really took off. and was hard to stop. what should we be doing to slow it all down again and get comfortable. the whole lesson was spent on getting him to lengthen his stride and now he seems like he is becoming A SPEED FREAK. He is a heavily raced ottb, whos brother actually won the kentucky derby. i dont want to take another 45$ an hour lesson til i have quelled the fear in me and my horse. how best to do this?

Can I not use my points after I decide to keep them on iCoke.ca?

Ok so I have 1500 points on iCoke.ca, and just recently (as in a mere 2 minutes ago) cashed all 1500 of those points in. After first bottle cap pin code was entered on the website did not ask if I would like to keep my points, or to use those points for a free song on iTunes, however on the second cap code it DID give me this option, but I opted out for the time-being, as I had one more code to enter. On this third entry it didn't give me the option, again, and I can not find anyway to try to redeem these points as free songs on iTunes. Is there any way I can get my free songs? Or did the b*stards over at Coca-Cola screw me over on this one?

I'm definently Bi, but is this normal...?

What riding boots do I need (English)?

You have a huge range of options. Many of the young students out at my barn wear either paddock boots (with or without half-chaps) or tall rubber boots, which are inexpensive so that you don't have to buy new boots too often as you grow. It depends on what you are comfortable in. There really is no reason to pay over $100 for a decent pair of schooling boots!

The weird thing is I am really really attached to pregnant women, both on a physical and emotional level. I'm obsessed with them and the mere sight of a pregnant woman makes me come. What does this mean? Am I bi or a lesbian or something? I don't normally care about labels, but I really am confused. What do you think?

My wife received a ticket for failing to stop at a stop sign on her bicycle in Santa Clara County, California. The PDF for the county bail schedule says this is a $25 bail. Yet, the Courtesy Notice says it's $244. What gives? Anyone know? Nothing on the county court web site says anything about added fees, or breaks down the number in any way. Oh, and 'traffic school' is a mere $283 (even though the cop said it would not go on her record in terms of insurance points).

Bad effects of working out then not sleeping after?

are there any serious effects of hitting the gym then not sleeping for the entire night after? I've been working out since senior year and during that time I've been sleeping for at least 8 hours every night. but college is different, and on weekends, I work out then stay up all night. are there any serious effects of doing so?

Will I outgrow my 15hh horse?

No, Not at all.You probably could grow but it depends on your body type and your puberty level. Most likely you will not outgrow that big guy, hes very stocky and at 15hh, he seems to be okay under you. :)

How does my leg look in this saddle?

I have very long legs so as you can see my issue is the same, it looks weird but as long as you an your horse is comfortable and if that is the best way you will be able to ride then go for it!

How is this prologue? Do you feel the emotion? Where should I edit it?

I loved the first paragraph. It is a very dramatic and intense death scene. I like the details and the intricacies of a potential vampiric death. It seems to take longer than is traditional but it is wonderfully vivid. The rest of it (for me) is teen romantic drivel. I don't have a problem with her loving a vampire it is just the extremism of it all. He being the only vamp she could ever stand, the only one she ever loved because he was a good vampire? I have a problem with animal blood drinking vamps when he could just get some from a local blood bank. But otherwise this kindly vampire thing doesn't sit well with all readers of vampire lore.

How to stop my horse from rolling while I am on him?

It all comes down to control and breaking bad habits. Your friends advice was correct, when he pauses at the water and starts to show signs of rolling pull back on the reins as a sign of control, then release and spur him slightly just as you would to make him go. If he hesitates spur him a little harder and direct his head with the reins. If he tries to buck again grab the reins and turn his head into his side(horses can not buck when there heads are turned like this) and stay in control until he stops. Then instead of turning back start the entire process of crossing the water again. DO NOT GIVE UP AND TURN AROUND. This will show who is in controll and promote better riding. Hope this helps(:

Riding without stirrups?

I'm not exactly sure how this is happening. I do the exact same thing and my reins never get caught in my stirrups. Are you tucking the loop left over underneath the rein between your hand and the bit (sorry i can't think of a better way to say that right now)? The only other thing I can think of is to just take the stirrups off for those ten minutes. It actually makes a big difference (the buckle and stirrups is in your way a lot more than you think) but it is a pain to take them off and put them on....

How can I fix dangerous spinning when mounting my horse?

Hi there. I recently adopted a 14 yr old Morgan gelding. He has had extensive training by his previous owner but he was just too spirited for her (she was 54 and never rode previously in her life). If he refused or acted spooky with her on his back, she would simply dismount and walk him home. I was made aware of all of his quirks before purchasing him and warned of his stunts. He is very intelligent and picked up a very dangerous bad habit with his previous owner. I have knocked out a few trail rides with him this week and was quite successful with him once I was able to mount him. Here's the problem: he spins the second I lay the reins across his neck and prepare to mount. It's not a walking off problem or a "little" spin at all! He spins hard and doesn't stop, even when somebody holds him. I've tried mounting against a fence, and that hasn't helped. The only way that I can, is if someone holds him by his bit from the back of their horse. That way he cant spin into the other horse, move forward or spin into me. And if you put a foot in the stirrup and rush to throw your other leg over his back, he's off for the races and at times will buck! He'll do anything to keep you from getting your seat. Now, I've had this horse vetted and had a chiropractor check him over. He had his teeth floated in April. He doesn't do any of this in an indoor arena- he stands perfectly still! I lounge him for fifteen minutes on each side and also try spinning him to disengage his hindquarters before attempting to mount with no success. This only happens before leaving the barn for a trail ride. Out on the road I can dismount and remount without any problems. He really seems to enjoy the rides and leads with excitement, so I'm thinking it's just a real bad habit/ trick that he's learned. Any other suggestions on how to correct this?

Can you please help me out, teen guy at the gym, need advice pls?

I'm 16 , 5'10, between 165 and 170 lbs. Im a GUY btw lol. Anyways, I want to lose like 10 pounds, and mainly just tone up., I just have some lower belly fat, love handles, and some bum fat, its mostly on mybelly, its not a lot, but it still covers my abs up. I;ve decided to go the gym and use my membership lol, and each day work 2 muscle groups, and go for 4-5 days a week. I mainly want to lose my fat and lower my body fat percentage, and get lean and ripped at the same time, but not huge. Tomorow I am going to work on my chest and triceps, then run for 15-20 mins on the treadmill, and maybe play some ball after. However, what are the best exercises for the chest and triceps, and how many reps should I do to tone up and lose my fat. Is my plan good? I want to lose 10 pounds and get abs and a nice lean physique by September 1st, do you think I can do it? thanks

Should I call back for results of a job interview?

I had a job interview last Friday at a gym for the position of a receptionist. It went really well and I have to say it was one of the best interviews I have had because I usually become very nervous. The person that interviewed me even said that she enjoyed the interview and was impressed with my answers. while I was leaving she called me back and gave me the staff rota for July ( which I found very strange ) she said that I should take it to have a look at it she said that she was still interviewing next week so I should hear from her in the same week. Having the rota did make me feel hopeful, but unfortunately I haven't herd anything from her. I have to admit it has left me feeling quite disappointed, I'm very nervous about calling her to find out if I got the job or not it all seems very strange because the interview was a very positive experience. What would you do if you were in my situation ? thank you for your help.

Am i too tall to ride ponies?

I'm 5"7 and 136 pounds, and normally ride 15-16hh horses. I've seen a little stocky 14.2 pony who I'm interested in buying, but would I look too big on her? I do have shorter legs than my torso, therefore I ride with quite short stirrups so I'm sure my legs wouldn't dangle anyway. What do you think?

How is being against affirmative action racist?

I'm all for diversity, but you shouldn't enforce it at the expense of other people. If a white guy wants to get into college, he shouldn't be rejected because a black guy is trying to get in also. It also applies the same way vice-versa. Reverse discrimination is still discrimination. Everyone is equal. Why should the white guy not get in just because he is white and another person is black ( and vice-versa.) I'm agaiinst all types of racism, and noone is superior or inferior. If I get into college becase I am half asian, and a white guy doesnt get in because of that, isn't that basically the same thing as him getting in because he's white, therefore I not getting in because I'm half asian? Let people get into college because of their accomplishments, not because of the mere color of their skin. If you want to stop racism, don't do reverse racism.

How should I train for cross country season?

I am a 16 yr old female running JV cross country. I am entering junior year of hs, and running about 20 miles a week so far this summer. I have run about a 30 min 5k. I was supposed to take off a couple minutes last year, but suffered a quad strain. Now healed, I have been running for about 3 weeks, just trying to build up a base again. The season starts in the fall, racing 5k. How should I train to gain speed without risking injury? More mileage? Two a days? Cross training? My runs average 3 miles, once a day, 5 or 6 days a week. I have a gym membership and pool. Also, what is a realistic goal time by the end of season(November)? Hope you can help a fellow runner! All answers appreciated:)

How long should I brine pork leg?

I have found brining meats (with at least salt and water) gives the meat a hell of a lot more juicy detail than the mere treatment of "just stick it into the oven until it is cooked" can give it. I am bringing to my uncle's house some pork leg and I would like your suggestions on how long I ought to brine it. What are your suggestions?

Why do people quote Einstein in support of their religious views?

You are right. We don't need to quote Einstein to support that God exists. We are born to want to know our creator. It's more than just a question and certainly more than just something the very intelligent seek.

More calories when you exercise?

I am 16, 5 ft 3 in tall. I weigh 104 lbs. I normally eat about 1200 calories a day. I used to eat less but I know you shouldn't. I go to the gym about 5 to 6 days a week. I burn 500 - 600 calories in cardio. Because of this, I am suppose to eat more calories right? I want to maintain my same weight, so the goal is to stay fit, not lose weight. What would be a good average amount of calories to eat when I exercise? I know it all depends on the person, but, maybe a guideline? Thank you!

How to stop my horse jigjog HELPPPP!!?

If she is acting that way close to home, she knows that you're going to put her away and feed her. Horses get excited over things like that, especially after working. Just continue to work with her. I had a barn sour horse who did that same thing, it took me two months to break her of the habit. I never used a saddle after the habit started. I would make sure to work her hard and walk her out before we got too close to home but if she started her little gait again knowing we were close to home I'd stop her there and run her out some more. It'll take time but im sure you can break her habit. good luck.

Have you ever been to the gym, seen someone you didn't like and wiped your bum on their towel?

Year and a half.... Weight loss zero?

I've been trying for a year and a half to lose weight... And I've tried every diet under the sun. Atkins, weight watchers, slimming world, cabbage soup the list goes on. So I changed my mind and started to change my eating habits to see if this would work, but to make dismay nothing happened. In conjunction with this I go to the gym 5 days a week go swimming once a week go running 3 times a week and do Zumba 3-4 days a week.... So I can't see why I'm still 15 stone.... I haven't lost or gained weight but it's just not shifting... I am living at the moment on chicken with no fat or skin vegetables, I have pasta with tomato sauce (brown pasta) and I eat a lot of fruit and vegetables. I don't has takeaways.... So can someone tell me what's wrong with me, because I just can't do it anymore..... Dieted and exercises and failed miserably

Jehovah's Witness:The Watchtower Society teaches that the earth will never be destroyed?

* The Watchtower Society teaches that the earth will never be destroyed or depopulated. How can it be, then, that God says in Isa 51:6,"... the earth itself will wear out, and its inhabitants will die like a mere gnat...", and that Jesus says in Mt 24:35, "Heaven and earth will pass away...", and that John says in Rev 21:1 that he saw"... a new heaven and a NEW earth, for the former heaven and the FORMER earth had passed away, and the sea is NO MORE."?

I was divorced in FL both my ex and myself relocated to indiana.The state of indiana began enforcing Florida?

support order which at that time was $11,000.dollars in arrears, Fl was collecting 20 addt'l a week towards arrears The arrears doulbled while his ability to pay due to securing a hi- income paying job also doubled however the local court (COUNTY VIGO) lowered the $20 addt'l to a mere $10 a week and then dismissed the case. To date the arrears are 18, 000. What court can i petition.? i thought at the very least Indiana court would've applied new income withholding law. increasing the amt to be paid weekly towards the arrears..i never dreamed they would decreases it. Why was my case dismissed, could it be because he was paying support obligation...the issue is the arrears...what state will enforce them now...can i go to another county in Indiana? Help!!!!.

Is it mere reform that God desires, or is it that we admit our failings so we can see God's action to provide?

True reformation is allowing the Holy Spirit to work in your life, convicting you of sin and leading you to repentance. God wants us to worship Him in spirit and in truth, which isn't possible without putting aside our deeply seated love of iniquity and turning to Him for redemption.

How can I fix my heel issue?

I found my heels come up if I am riding a horse that has very elevated paces. I found riding lots without my stirrups helped as I had to just let me legs hang low. One I got my stirrups back I could put my heels down more as my legs were stretched nicely.

Trouble with tacking up..?

Well, make sure you always tack up on the LEFT side. It's easier for the horse. But make sure you put the girth strap in the metal loop hole 2 times, then put the strap over your shoulder, turn around, squat, and stand up as high as you can. The horse may be poking its stomach out, so make sure to poke the stomach with your fingers before you tighten the girth. But after you tighten it, make sure to tie it.. For the bridle.. put your forearm over the horses neck, push down, hold the top of the bridle over the head, squeeze the chin or put your finger in the BACK of the mouth where there is no teeth, and the horses mouth will open because of the pressure.. hoof picking is easy.. stand facing the back of the horse, pinch, then slide your finger down the horses tendon, and the foot will pick up, straddle to leg, and pick the hoof. Canter transitions... make sure to sit up very straight.. throw your feet out and up, (with the stirrups) hope this helps.

Parenting: How weird is this?

It's not really weird. I'd say about 3/10. Some people want their child to be just like they imagined. I can't really say much more, I think I've covered it?

Shin splint help???????

I've had this problem many times. I rest a few days and do a lot of stretching, particularly stretching the opposite side of the injury. For shins the opposite side would be the calf area. Stretch a lot and begin running again. If it still hurts rest and stretch and repeat cycle until the problem is gone. Anti Inflammatory meds will help too.

Should I be proud of myself?

How are metal kitchen cabinets attached to wall?

These are all metal except for formica clad doors which were common in the fifties.. I want to remove one section to make headroom there. I removed screws connecting to cabinets on either side. Since there are no screws through the back into the wall, I theorize that it is hung on a flat hook into a stirrup similar to how a wall mount bathroom sink is sometimes hung. But substantial banging on the bottom does not get it too rise up. Does anyone know how they are removed?

I have a saddle it has a D stamped on the panel, does anyone know what make it is?

How to start riding my horse bareback?

You really don't have to prep him much. It might be a little interesting for him at first, but if he is sensible he should be quiet. When you want to hop on him bareback, have someone handy to hold him still. Make sure you have a helmet on in case he gets scared. Get a tall mounting block, and just slide on his back. Sit there for a few minutes and let him get used to your weight being concentrated on his back instead of being distributed by a saddle. Have your handler lead him around at a steady walk then boost up to a brisk walk. Once he's comfortable, try a slow trot. He should do just fine. Hope this helps!

Why is my internet bill so high? Internet problems? HELP.?

I have a BT HomeHub on 10 GB a month for �10. Since I switched from dial up to wireless, my bill has been almost 3 times what it used to be, for unknown reasons. Looking into it for 10 GB people have said you should be able to download up to 32 HD full length movies per month or up to 5000 albums, this however seems to have been done in the first few days. We don't have many things connected to the router, the main being a PS3, Macbook and an iPod touch. None of which we download things from constantly. Recently there have been updates on the PS3 but they aren't big enough to fill 10 GB of internet, and the iPod is rarely used too. The other it the Macbook, which is only used for browsing twitter facebook, blogging and the odd video a day on youtube, again this can't be the cause of nearly a �30 bill within the first 9-10 days. The only thing that has come to mind that our big computer has been 'running' or downloading so to speak constantly and wont stop the whole time that we are on it, we think that the cause of this is that a person or multiple people have hacked the system and are using our internet and downloading constantly without us knowing that any of this is going on, however something is going on somewhere along the line because using the device for a mere 5 hours a day just on social networking sites could not possibly bring the bill to �30, this isn't the equivalent to 32HD movies surely. Does anyone have any suggestions as to why the bill is so high or how to resolve this issue? Many thanks.

How to get better position/eq over fences?

I have decent eq on the flat but over fences its a 50 50 shot. My horse has trouble juding distances but it doesn't give me and excuse to have a bad position. My trainer and I are working on it but I only have a lesson once a week. I seem to stand up in my stirrups when I jump yet if I shorten them, they seem to short and feels uncomfortable since I am used to riding in semi long stirrups. Is there ways that I could improve my eq over fences during the rest of the week so I'm prepared for my lessons?

Im 15 and really skinny :(?

Basically I am really skinny, you can see my ribs etc and my arms + legs look like twigs. Summer has arrived and I'm afraid to wear T-shirts because my arms are so thin and I'm embarrassed. I want to put on weight and muscle but I never seem to be able to, I think I have a fast metabolism. After browsing through other questions, all people say is "go to the gym" or something. I would look stupid working out as I look like a skinny twig. Are there any basic foods that I should eat and are there any exercises that I can do in the home without big weights,etc? I also can't change my diet "To much" e.g going on some programme that changes my entire diet. I just need to know are there any basic foods or exercises that will start to help me and make me "less skinny"? Please don't say "go to the gym" as it really doesn't help. Also can you suggest any clothes to wear that perhaps cover my arms as I don't want to wear jumpers in the summer. I've also barely hit puberty. Thanks

hey im a 15yr old male, bout 5'9 and weight 92kg. ive being going to the gym for about 2years on and of and have bulked up for my age. as i lost 20kg when i was younger, i still have a bit of exess fat which is blocking my muscle from showing. i eat right and play soccer 6times a week but the fat is stuborn and wont leave. i brought a fat burner called "carnitine". when i got it i lost bout 2kg but then it didnt nothing for me, i was hoping if anyone could help me with a great fat burner which acctually works (money isnt an issue) or any other method of training to get rid of the fat. i only want to lose about 5-7kg to get tonned a little more. thankyou very much :]

Trying to build, tone and lose fat. are power and protein bars a good way to go?

I tend to work out 4-5x a week. I've been working out and dieting for about 6 weeks. I tend to stay at the gym from 1hr-3hrs. I want to work out as much as i can to get the best results possible because my weight loss has been really slow, I've lost about 7 llbs so far. I've been using whey powder and making shakes out of soy milk, whey, grapefruit, strawberries and oranges. but most recently I bought IronGirl powerbars for before my workout, powerbar energy blast fruit chews for during my workout (which I've noticed REALLY give me energy) and protein plus bars which include 20g of protein. If I'm having a slower workout I'll only take the irongirl bar and possible a protein bar but today (I had a 3 hour workout) I had all three plus a whey shake. is this to much? I dont know if this is enough for just body building or how protein works really. I noticed the energy blasts have a lot of sugar and the bars have lots of carbs and sugar - which I don't believe is very good for weight loss. is their types of energy and protein supplements that have fewer carbs and sugars? or is what I'm doing good for the results I want?

How can I lose more weight?

I have been working out and dieting for about a month now. In the first week i lost 10 pounds and was ecstatic. But for the last 3 weeks i haven't lost any weight. I have actually put another pound back on. When im at the gym i usually split my time between cardio and lifting weights. I was wondering if there is something i should be doing differently like cutting down on lifting and doing more cardio or taking some supplements.

Problem with stirrup/leg when riding western?

When I ride in my western saddle I have a really hard time putting my feet in the stirrups when I first get on. And then the stirrup is like turned in when my feet are in and it hurts my ankle sometimes and then I have a hard time keeping the stirrup itself straight and not turned in. Its kind of hard to describe. The saddle is kind of old....maybe 10-20 years old. I have ridden english for 6 years and just started riding western. Maybe this is just normal with riding western and I am just not used to it. Is this normal??? Is their a way to fix it???

Were does 5ft 8 &1/2 range in height, is it short, tall, medium?

I always heard Ryan Seacrest was short but when I found out he's 5ft 9 I was taken back because I always thought my height was alright but dam if Ryan is considered short then I’m in real trouble. please give me your honest answer, I really don't care(REALLY NO MERCY) don't try to make it sound like its not that bad. I just want to know what people really think is tall and what’s average. I'm 5ft 8&1/2 if you think that’s short PLEASE tell me I really want to know the truth. It seams like 5ft 10-11 is the average height for a male since that’s the height of all my friend not to mention it seems like everyone I see at the store or gym is on average 5ft 10-11. please don't say your fine the way you are or that’s how god intended you to be or its just your genes...I know that…well the last part, I’m not trying to sound rude but it doesn’t help. Thanks in advance… I mean really pick at this issue like one of those critics on those chef shows. DON’T FILTER OUT YOUR RAW ANSWERS I CAN TAKE THEM.

How do I discipline my Daughter who's lazy and doesn't give a crap about school?

I have a teenage daughter and all she likes to do is shop for designer clothes and lay around on the beach all day (we live in Miami Beach), or be at the gym, or out with friends partying. She hasn't been doing well in school at all, yet she's very beautiful and very popular. I regret giving her the Mercedes for her last birthday. She doesn't have motivation to study and focus on academics. She doesn't want to have a job. She doesn't care about college. She is simply lazy. She says she's not interested in anything unless its modeling or something glamorous. I told her that's not reliable and she needs to set a goal and needs an education. Then she said her goal was to marry a Billionaire and be taken care of. What do I do about this girl? Her mother just spoils her, I have too, but now that's she's almost 17 I'm getting worried about her future, and I'm afraid she won't even graduate high-school on time!

Why is it so important for some people to separate us from animals? That the mere suggestion that we have -any- relation with animals that have 99% identical DNA to us is appalling? I think it's important for us to recognize that we're a separate species. We live in different societies, have different orders and rules, and all those kinds of things. So we're definitely our own species. (By the by, for people whom I know are going to bring this up, inter-species mating is wrong. Which is why it's important to identify, individually as a species.) I think all species have the need to identify themselves as a species. You don't see badgers waltzing into a fox's den, and expecting everything to be hunky-dorey. But what's the big deal with saying humans are animals? Technically, it's true. Humans are part of the Kingdom Animalia. So if we're not a kind of animal, then what -are- we?

Would you let your ex husband take your 3 year old away?

I doubt any airline would let a three year old fly alone, anyways. Better book a flight and a hotel room.

How do I get over this girl and move on? (long question)?

Don't think so hard about it. What will she be to you in 5 years? She might not be anything, you might even forget her! Move on with your life because you can, and find someone who wants to talk to you, who wants to be with you. There are a lot of beautiful women in the world and if you're the right guy for them, then she's the right girl for you. :)

English stirrup bars? *20*?

The bars where the stirrups are attached to the saddle (don't know the name, sorry). Are they supposed to be up or down? I have heard both, and I can see it making sense either way, up and the stirrup won't come off, but if it's down it could come off if you were being drug and release you, so which way is it supposed to be?

Does this guy think this man is out of my league?

Your friends probably jealous oh and btw I wouldn't hook up with someone from a gym. There the ones with the stds

Is this status too personal for facebook?

Nah, people will just think you're sharing a personal event. I don't think that its really personal. I guess you can post it.

Why is abortion right or wrong?

A pre-born child isn't "potential" anything. He/she is a human being. He/she does have a beating heart by the time his/her mother knows she is pregnant. And that heart is pumping his/her blood, not the mother's blood. A sperm or egg is a cell of the father or mother's body. Once they combine, the resulting cell is not the father's cell or the mother's cell. It is the first cell of their son or daughter's body.

Any good workout ideas for the whole week?

Try listening to music while you are running. It keeps you from being bored because you are focused on the music. I run into this same problem and get really bored while doing sit ups lol.

I've been a terrible person but I want to change?

First i would like to say good job, you are young and we live in a world of instant gratification its not hard to see why you would want to ditch your amazing bf to see if the world has to offer more. please dont let anyone judge your unlady like behaviour really its not their business. you have decided to turn around so that makes you a beautiful compassionate human being. Tell him your sorry for hurting him and you know that you will have to earn his trust. dont begin where you left, you have to start dating all over again. hangout laugh then slowly see if a movie and dinner date would be ok with him. be the girl he fell in love with. we all want to live our alter egos life you have done what most women are to scared to do. Well goodluck and i hope it works but if not you learned valuable life lessons and have truly been able to live. you have to the change charity work wont make you better if you see it as a selfpunishment

Can anybody tell me if this book is going to be any good?

Any ideas why my feet hurt when I ride?

I ride hunters/jumpers, and I've noticed recently that when I ride, my feet hurt in the stirrups. I think it's a pressure thing perhaps because when I ride bareback or without stirrups it doesn't happen. My boots are old (I'm getting new ones), but I've been riding in the same boots for years and saddle/stirrups for the past two years and the pain has only been recently. My heels are down, and I have not been injured. Does anyone else have experience with this problem, or ideas of how to fix it? Thanks for any and all input :)

How to get rid of hip pain after birth?

I had a baby 6months ago, towards the last month I got bad groin pains. I thought I'd pulled a muscle in that area but my midwife said it was probably Symphysis pubis dysfunction and I was told to rest and keep my legs together during certain activities. I did this but during labour my legs were wide open on stirrups. Since then I have had pain in my left hip and still in the groin area, especially if I pee hard and fast. I can't carry my baby for long or any form of weight. I've been to my doctor and keep getting told to rest. About a month ago I did carry a lot of laminate flooring up some stairs and now my other hip is hurting too. To top it off my right knee is now in pain, it feels very tight and hurts a lot when walking up stairs. I just don't know what to do, I'm usually a very active person, I've gone from a size 12 to a 16 and its just making me feel down, especially since I can't carry my baby far, I've tried all sorts of carriers but still in pain. Please help.

Am I progressing too slowly?

I have been riding for about 3 1/2 months now. I have went from being able to walk, to being able to canter a small course of x-rails. I have only jumped a few verticals, which were 1 1/2 feet. I can now w/t/c confidently, and w/t without stirrups confidently (I cant canter without stirrups, but I can canter bareback) I can trot and canter over jumps. But I am consistently jumping x-rails, I thought by now most riders would have progressed onto courses of verticals by now? I think i'm progressing too slowly.. I only get 1 lesson a week, maybe I should dig up some cash and get 2 per week? I would love to be able to show 1m+ by next year. Thanks in advance.

Hi! I was wondering if anybody had any tips for me....?

You're a beginner!!! It's totally understandable to be excited!!! First, jeans are best unless your have equestrian breeches/tights because they have great natural gripping. The boots you describes will be fine unless they have heavy tread. Hate to break this to you, but you might have to be led. Just tell them that you've been researching and you've ridden by yourself before, and see what they tell you. They might start you with being led in your lesson, then if you do well with that they might let you ride by yourself on your trail ride. When you try and catch the horse, slip the lead rope around its neck. The it will be easier to get the halter on, PLUS your hands will be more free. Hope this helped!!! :)

I need to find volleyball open gyms ! around dayton ohio !!!!?

does anyone know of volleyball open gyms , or maybe a summer camp , thats cheap , around dayton , ohio !?

Should I keep on lifting heavy? 10 POINTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!…

I am 20 years old 5"11 and 145 lb. I always lift heavy and never lower the weight I bench 270lb, bicep curl 55lb dumbbell and leg press 550lb. Some people at the gym remind me about form and how I should lower the weight. Should I take this approach and focus on form rather than always lifting heavy weights. Also I am beginning to wonder because even though I lift heavy weights my body frame stays the same and I think it is because of my form. Should I lower the weight and when I get to 10 reps increase because what I do now is as soon as I get to 5-6 reps I up the weight. Is form better to build muscle rather than heavy weight. Any advice would be appreciated.

How do fix this? I'm stuck..?

For starts, quit gripping with your knee. Then tip back from your hips and put as much weight as possible into your stirrups. Get someone to lunge you while you ride around focasing on these three things. Its also likely that you aren't putting your legs in the right position. Ride around in two point (at canter) then when you go back to sitting canter try keep your legs in exactly the same place that they were in two point.

How to keep heels down?

Like someone else said, stand on the edge of a stair and push them down helps. I found that pushing my heels down while riding my bike helps too. I ride my bike almost everyday in the summer, so I really got to work on it. The things other people have said are good ideas, too.

My ankles hurt when trying to keep my heels down?

Try this exercise and see if they still hurt if they do then its your stirrups. Get on the edge of the stairs and stand on you tiptoes then push your heels down and see if you feel a pull just above your ankle if it still hurts your ankles then get your stirrups changed yw :D xxx

Does it look bad to have a black bridle?

I would want my tack to match but if you are doing unrated low level shows it probably doesn't matter too much

How to remain motivated? How to lose weight?

I have no support. I'm not complaining, but it's difficult to remain motivated when you have no one to keep you going. Whether you fail or not, it's only yourself your damaging. And if you're like me, you really don't care. I want to care, but I don't... at least not enough. Here's the catch: I'd like to lose 50lbs. I'm a medium-framed female, 5'7", 180lbs approx. Eating healthy isn't the issue. I can control myself there... when I care to. I don't eat dairy - dairy is miserable for you. Look it up if you don't believe me. Example diet plan - no dairy please? Simple exercise plan? I can get access to a gym, but it won't be for about two months. I have a 10lb weight and two 5lb weights. I can't exercise outside, I get heat sickness VERY easily. I'm not just complaining - I literally puke and break out in rashes. Once I get on this plan, how can I remain motivated to keep going. I really want to for my health mostly. I have no confidence issues.:) Sex would be nice for exercise, but I'm not getting that right now... SO. Help? I want to start ASAP, but I don't want to if I know it will just fail. It does every time.

How do I get stirrup leathers onto an English saddle?

I'm cleaning this really old English saddle for a friend, so I took the stirrup leathers off of it. Now I can't get them back on. The stirrup bar is really old and probably hasn't been moved in a while, so I can't flip it down. I tried prying the leathers on with a hoof pick, but that only scuffed up the tips of the leathers. Help?

Is there any reason to go to the doctors?

I stepped on a (small) lacrosse ball 6 weeks ago and hurt my ankle really badly. It swelled so the outside of my ankle was the size of a baseball, it really hurt to point my toe, and walking was extremely painful. After 2 weeks of playing lacrosse on it, I went to the doctor, and was put in an air cast stirrup for a week and a half. They took xrays and saw no bone damage. After the week and a half I went back to playing lacrosse. The swelling never went completely down and when i stretch my ankle to the side, extending the muscles on the outside, i get a sharp pain on the side of the round bone there. I'm planning on taking 2 weeks off to let it heal, but my question is is there any damage I could have done that will take longer than 2 weeks to heal? Should I go to the doctor again?

How stupid and cruel are the police?

Do I ever have to get a girlfriend?

I'm 19. I don't ever want to be in a relationship. I made a mistake when I was younger thinking of how relationships were supposed to be. The reality of a relationship in today's society in my opinion is senseless. So I figure, since I'm in college, I can get my degree, get a great big house, & a great job. Then I won't worry about getting married & having children. I won't be alone all the time. I can make friends. I'll get some pets as well. I'm going to build me a huge gym in my house. I love to work out & I love sports. So I've never had a girlfriend by choice. In high school, I couldn't find any decent girls to go out with. But now I really just don't care anymore. I don't ever want a girlfriend. My question for you is, is this a good idea? As long as I'm happy, I should be able to do what I want, right?

Why won't my cough go away?

Okay so I've had this cold with a horrible cough for about a month now. It keeps me up through the night and gives me headaches because I can't stop coughing. I feel fine, its just the cough. I'm a very healthy person. I go to the gym almost every day, I eat 3 healthy meals a day, I'm in shape, and very active. So why won't this dang cough go away?

Will my face swell up or not?

My pony reared with me today and as I had no stirrups or reins, I was thrown forward and whacked the right hand side of my face on his neck but then my thoughts went a little. When he came back down I had a small nosebleed and my face has split a little just below my eye, and bruised along my cheekbone and it seemed to be huge, but when I got home it hadn't got that big. Will it get any bigger? I have school tomorrow, that's all! Thanks :)

Why does my husband find me more attractive (10 points)?

my husband and i are 27 have been married for 2 years. last year i was thin and went to the gym a few times a week and my husband and i had a good sex life and cuddled often. now i got a promotion at my job and i have been working more, so i guess i havent been able to work out and started eating more and i guess "let myself go" so i have gained some weight in the past year. so now im chubby. you would think he would be less attracted to me but he seems more into me and its like he cant keep his hands off of me. all he wants to do is cuddle and we have sex WAY more often than when i was thin .when we hug and kiss he likes to grab onto my rolls or love handles. like yesterday when he got back from work (he is a sports writer btw) we hugged and kissed and he put his arms around me and started squeezing and grabbing my fat. at first i felt really uncomfortable with him touching me, but after awile i was ok with it. i do have bigger breasts, a bigger butt, and i a much more curvy figure now, so maybe thats why he is more attracted to me. i would get it is was chubby before and lost weight and then was more attracted to me, but i dont get it with this scenario. i know im his wife and he will always love me but you can love something and not be attracted to it like after my older sister had her baby she had gained 40 pounds because of her pregnancy and she told me that recently her husband could not even look at her :(. if it helps answer the question he is a big guy and has been oveweight since the day i met him

HELP ME WITH MY WRITING! pleeassee?

I like this, but you tell too much. You should show rather than telling a bit more, i.e. instead of saying 'I pleaded, ridding myself of my playful, comical personality' you should show -how- she is comical. If she was playful, she probably would have responded to the idea of expulsion as some kind of joke, maybe laughed or something, at least at first. Overall, it's a nice piece of writing, you just need a bit more 'showing' description and you will be fine. Good luck. :)

When I use caged stirrups it really starts to hurt my leg and ankle, why?

I had the same problem and it was only when i was trotting it hurt i said to my riding instructor but my riding instructor was not nice so she done nothing but you should say to them and you would not be rubbish rider it might be something to do with just your legs i don't know lol hope this helped and good luck

Bullied by Atheists? Why do Atheists bully Christians?

I'm 19. I got bullied in high school for being a Christian. People said I was too boring because I had a lot of morals in life. They said I was gay because I didn't date. I love sports, but I quit playing sports because my teammates were always trying to get me to go to parties & date girls. They made fun of me because they knew I was saving myself for marriage. They said I didn't know how to have fun. I think I do know how to have fun. My definition of fun is just different from others. Like I said, I love sports. I love to work out. I spent my Friday & Saturday nights at my private gym. I love going to the movies & to the mall. I just don't go to parties or drink. Why do Atheists bully Christians? It's not like I force my religion onto them. I never even bring up my religion. Will college be a better environment for me? I'm going this fall. Thank you for your advice. God Bless

When and How should I use Whey Protein and HMB?

I'm 19, I recently lost around 50 pounds with a Low-Carb diet in which I'm still on, and I started going to the gym like 2 months ago, after I stopped loosing weight. I'm 6 ft tall and weight between 195 and 200 pounds. I still have fat that I would like to get rid of. I go to the gym Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays starting with 20 min of cardio and then moving on to the weights. I just bought Optimum Gold Standard 100% Whey and Optimum HMB 1000 Caps and I really would like to which is the best way for me to use them so I can burn fat and grow muscle at the same time. Thank You Very Much and apologize for any grammar or syntax mistakes, as you can see I'm not a native speaker.

MUSCLE MILK QUESTION?

What if i do pushups, pull ups, and other non weighted workouts instead of weight lifting?(I temporarily have no access to a gym) Will the results be the same? I can do 25 pull ups nonstop and 60 pushups non stop. (I'm an upcoming junior in high school). If I split these workouts into sets and reps no higher than 15, will my muscles grow bigger or just tone them?

Dell Mini 1012: replacing 1024x600 screen with 1366x768 resolution?

How long would it take me to get at least 4 pack abs?

Hi, i am 17, 155 lbs, 5'10 tall and I used to be fat so i have some fats. I work out at gym every other day and before lifting weights we do abs exercise we do lots of crunches, sit ups fish flaps and a bunch more. So I was wondering how long would take me to get at least 4 packs??

Some people are saying im coping out by believeing in fate.?

Energy takes the path of least resistance. I am following a set course as is everyone else. Im not a cop out except that i need a wife and have one i never call the cops i feel no shame for longer then a few minutes here and there and my fate to believe in god always brings me out of it except that i am a fool because i am young but after i live another few million years ill still be a fool but i am gods fool not mans and any crime i commit against any man i will not seek counsel from a mere man to feel better nor god anymore but my own will keeps me and make me a rock. I am what i am. We were destined for what we do. I am no less evil then everyone else your hand against mine mine against yours and anyone who doesn't see himself as evil how truely evil you are. You were destined to give me what answer you do.

I want to know how to get strong. I want washboard abs, huge arms and legs, and a pumped chest.?

ok, so i am a 13 year old and am entering high school this Autumn. When I was in middle school, I was sometimes picked on because I wasn't strong didn't have a "macho body". I am going to high school next year and want to get very strong. So basically, I want to have washboard abs that look very sexy and muscular, ripped arms, legs, and a very big chest. I have no gym equipment at home and am not old enough to join a gym. I have 10 weeks to bulk up and look very strong. Can someone please give me the exercises needed, reps, amount of times, and days, i have to exercise. Thank you

Horse show horrors?......................…

Anyone want to share some horse show horror stories? I just went to a show and everything that could go wrong did, and it would be amusing to hear some of your stories! so at mine my normally hard to handle but controlable horse wen NUTS he bucked even at the walk (nothing was wrong with back/teeth/bit/saddle) he was just excited, I twisted my ankle cantering (lost my stirrup in an odd way and twisted it) my horse spook and scrambled back into a group of young girls on ponies (he's a kicker also) thankfully no one was hurt, and he got mad when his haybag went empty so he left 20 6 inch teeth marks on my trainers BRAND NEW 3 horse trailer w/ dressing and tack room. he just decided to run his teeth down over it again and again, (we were collecting ribbons though so we wernt their to stop him) he also pawed a foot deep hole. anything like this happen to you guys?

So dumb... but stirrups slipping?

You say you keep your heels down, but you also have to keep your weight in your heels. If you are balancing off of your thighs, knees, or calves, then that will be why. You may not notice it. Next time you ride, think about keeping your weight in your heels. You can exaggerate it at first. Try to ride without touching your knees to the saddle, it will make you keep your weight in your heels.

What is the stupidest things you have heard from "horse" people?

I one time was in the tractor supply store looking at bits and some guy came up to me and my sister and pointed out a bit like this: a href="http://www.horseforum.com/attachments/38172d1282159435-bits-quickstop-bit-jpg" rel="nofollow"http://www.horseforum.com/attachments/38…/a , and said these bits are great a guy i know gets wild mustangs in from this one place and trains them..he can put this bit on those horses without even working with them yet and put his kids on em and the kids just ride em around like they where ponies or something..lmao

Does he still like me?

He's just extremely furious. I left him a year ago we werent together he wanted me, but he was hanging out with his ex. I kept on insulting her and made fun of her. After I made fun of her he put a status in a relationship. I dont know if its fake or not, because on twitter i saw she was looking for the one, and checking out guys in the gym. I hinted nude photography while we were talking, he did it now. He advised the police on me to stop insulting him, which i did. We never speak, he did the photos after the police, its been 4 mnths, im looking for a bf myself and im still insulting her publicly because of the nude thing he did. Why is he outraged im looking to be with someone else and insulting her? She removed her pic off twitter.

Getting a horse soon! Help?

Wow, you sound super prepared (unlike most people who post this question on here lol). You sound like you've been around horses for awhile since there doesn't appear to be anything else to add. Congrats on your first horse and good luck at your shows :)

How do they pray to God, who believe in Him but not in Religion?

Here Religion implies the typical religious practices which are just conventions and at times mere superstitions. Obviously, such people avoid going to Churches, temples and mosques. But they have faith in God of their own perception. They are not atheists.

I'm Gaining Weight While I Work Out?

Something important to know about losing weight and excersizing is that muscle mass weighs more than fat mass, so you will weigh more when you get stronger, because your muscles are heavy.

Can i take the workout supplement, "jack3d", while on lamictal and methylphenid?

i just want to know if i can take this pre-worout supplement when i go to the gym. Im 16 years old and i took it once and it gave me alot of energy and it worked fine but i just freaked myself out that it made me shakey but the label says thats what it does. I didnt take my medicine listed above, however. So i want to know if it is safe. i take lamictal 100mg and methylphenid 38mg.

If i run for 30 min everyday will i loose weight?

i go to the gym everyday and i run for 30 min on the tredmil and then 10 min on the arc trainer. i would like to lose stomach and thigh fat. will this help?

I used to have a six-pack but now all I have is a little lump and I need to lose fat, not weight.?

It's not a huge little bit of fat, I can feel the muscle underneath it, but I can't go to the gym or anything like that because I'm a lot younger than this website thinks I am. I can't control my own diet yet because I still live with my mom :3 I'm just a kid... but the only sport I do was soccer but even that is gone now because it's summer. I used to do swimming, soccer, karate, and baseball but all those I stopped because Middle School started last year and I had a lot to keep up with. I play Alto Saxophone, Tenor Saxophone, Viola, Guitar, and Piano. The only instruments I don't have private lessons for are Guitar and Tenor Saxophone so I'm still pretty busy, so doing anything that takes more than 60 minutes a day is out of the question, but now that it's summer, I have a lot of time on my hands but I intend to stick to the exercise routine throughout the next school year so it can't be too long. so please help!

How much protein should i eat to gain muscle ?

You dont want protein only after a work out. If you are wanting to gain muscle then you need it in pretty substantial amounts every day. A good rule of thumb is a gram of protein per pound of your body weight. Also you are going to want quite a bit of carbs they are another key in gaining muscle. Remember you don't actually gain muscle while your working out. You are just breaking them down so you need the protein to rebuild them. That is why you always need protein, and lots of it.

How do I select stirrup leathers and stirrups for my new saddle?

I would say length doesn't matter..you can always adjust them. As for the width, whatever you think would look nice on your saddle. I would get one about two inches wide. And same brand as my saddle

Is the calorie counter in The Biggest Loser Ultimate Workout accurate?

No the calorie counter is not accurate. It as horrible in the older Wii version. A lot of factors go into calorie burning calculating which are typically your weight and intensity. I have seen that achievement as well but didn't look for a status tracker or anything like that. You just have to keep playing and you will eventually get it. Two ways I have experienced shedding 10+ calories a minute are on an elliptical machine and jogging above 4mph. If you want a more accurate reading get yourself a heart rate monitor and see how many calories that says you burn. Good luck on your achievement.

The best ab workout out there it just jumping over traffic cones and bringing your knees up to your chest. This works abs and legs pretty good. Also taking protein pills and metabolism boosters help.

Weight loss question...(advice needed)?

I'm 22 years old (female) and only 5'1. Im looking to lose about 30-35 pounds. Before I started college I was 95 pounds at 5'1 (I didn't watch what I ate then I guess my metabolism just got slower lol) and I would like to get back to that (I'm at 125 right now). I joined a gym but I have no idea how often to exercise, what kind of exercises to do and I don't really know what to eat, how often to eat and how much to eat....I'm looking for advice from anyone who specializes in this or just even anyone who has had a diet/exercise plan that worked for them. Thanks.

You have her hooked. She trusts you enough to tell you her love life. I also think she is dropping a LOT of hints, trying to say "let's be more than friends" and "my current boyfriend sucks".

Im 15 and really skinny :(?

Basically I am really skinny, you can see my ribs etc and my arms + legs look like twigs. Summer has arrived and I'm afraid to wear T-shirts because my arms are so thin and I'm embarrassed. I want to put on weight and muscle but I never seem to be able to, I think I have a fast metabolism. After browsing through other questions, all people say is "go to the gym" or something. I would look stupid working out as I look like a skinny twig. Are there any basic foods that I should eat and are there any exercises that I can do in the home without big weights,etc? I also can't change my diet "To much" e.g going on some programme that changes my entire diet. I just need to know are there any basic foods or exercises that will start to help me and make me "less skinny"? Please don't say "go to the gym" as it really doesn't help. Also can you suggest any clothes to wear that perhaps cover my arms as I don't want to wear jumpers in the summer. I've also barely hit puberty. Thanks

What do I have to do to get the truth?

sorry to say that knowing the truth won't help. if you continue to stay with him, you will be constantly looking over your shoulder. either you trust him (and i don't think you will) or you get out. professional counseling can help you get passed this but since you are not married and have no kids, the money on counseling may be better spent finding a new place to live

No one really knows. There was definitely an Israelite people and kingdoms that lived in Canaan. Where they came from, and where their unique belief system originated (and it *is* unique, despite the many references to other ANE religions) remains shrouded in mystery.

Can I pay $100 for a horse every month?

You can never have a certain cost a month, if grain is 15$ a month I would NOT go with that grain.. I would say mimium $200 a month. Vet calls are usually $50-100$ just to get the vet out. Then you can add the shots , you need the immunization , and the flu shots too. Farrier is usually $80 not 25$ and I really don't think $2 is a good quality bale of hay, you could find a good horse to lease for $100 and you won't have to wprry about vet and all that

My horse riding balance while trotting without stirrups is terrible?

How can I change this. It's starting to annoy me. I haven't particularly got the best confidence in the world doing work with no stirrups as I fell off in early learning to ride and every time I do sitting trot without stirrups going round the corner i nearly fall off. Also to improve my balance I've been trying to go slower but then I am constantly being moaned at by my teacher for going to slowly so I speed up and nearly bounce off the side let alone get very nervous. I then don't breathe properly and get bad stitches. This scary and annoying so I just want to be able to stop it before i fall again and knock my confidence even more.

Is there an age limit for garters?

Need to teach him manners on the ground!?

Sometimes smacking them in the face when they bite can lead to a negative end and make them want to bite you more because they don't want to get hit. This horse has lost respect for you and you need to gain it back again. All I can say is do tons of ground work. For about ten minutes everyday, have him pivot, back up, turn, figure 8s, stop, and other random stuff to keep him on his toes. Ground work is a great way to form respect and a bond. Reward him when he doesn't good but keep him moving so he isn't able to do bad. Keep a close eye on him and whenever it seems like he's going to nip when your working with him or what not, circle him around before he gets to do so and if he is about to, just push him away so that he'll learn that there is no point cause you don't care what kind of crap he's going to pull. When you go to visit him, do you only ride him? He probably sees you only as an object that makes him work, not something he wasn't to please. Keep the activities you do with him random so he'll look forward to his visits. Take him for walks (yes like a dog) or just sit down and talk to him while he's chilling around so he gets used to your company when he isn't just working.

How does "Biblical faith" differ from mere "belief without evidence"?

Biblical faith is based on love and the Bible while belief without evidence does not have to be spiritual and means you believe without having any facts to back up your faith. The Bible is the basis for biblical faith.

Read, comment, and criticize my poem, Thanks?

I read this a couple of times trying to find some redeeming value. It has a message, but it is poorly delivered in the midst of cliches. The only poetic device I could really identify was repetition, and that is ineffective. Your verses lack depth and emotion. There is no imagery, there is nothing that really sparks any interest... Honestly, I would struggle to call this a poem.

Does mere participation in bhajans and satsangs constitute devotion...............?

It will vary for different people. Personally i prefer meditation and a quiet place for devotional purposes. Somehow i cant stand bhajans and kirtans in groups. It irritates me.

Am I being a bit negative, or just honest?

I wouldnt say NEGATIVE.. its NORMAL to feel embarassed. but keep in mind that they stare at EVERY womans vagina.. not just yours! Its silly to let that get to you and make you not want to have another child because of it! sure its UNCOMFORTABLE but they do it to every woman ! not just you. Theyre not going to remember your face or anything.. and all vaginas look the same. Dont worry so much about it! you are acting like your the only woman in the world they stared at with her underwear off!

I need an exercise plan for the gym.?

I started going to the gym recently, and I need a good gym plan. I did the bike for 15 minutes, elliptical for 10 minutes, treadmill for 10 minutes, and the rest I used machines. How can I target my thighs, arms, and abs to lose fat at the gym?

Is it normal to dream about a guy over and over? ?

If your dreaming about talking to him, then just go up and talk to him! Start with hi! or pretend like you didn't see him there and bumped into him, that always makes things easier. My best friend knew about my crush and she knew he liked me a little so she was taking us backward/ forward until we bumped into each other and we both said hi at the same time and it was magical!! So maybe try something like that! If you have noticed him looking at you or taking quick glances that also means he likes you!!! So say hi start a conversation and things will go up from there. Hop that helps and good luck:)

HELP WITH ONLINE SCHOOLING?

Okay so I am 12 and I might have to do online schooling because of my schedule with gymnastics that I might be starting. I have been looking for those online schooling things and I found k12. (I am going into 7th grade by the way.) But I would only have a limited amount of time for school because of my schedule and I don't know if k12 lets you only do school for certain amounts of time. My schedule would be something like an AM gym session, lunch/school, PM gym session, and so on. HELP? Websites??
