For example, it's great to feel euphoric if you fall in love but it's also understandable that you might be a bit protective of yourself...

Answer to:
Does the drug "Alli" really work? It helps but the person's habits still have to change for it to work. The drug clamps on to fat taken in by food and prevents its calories from being absorbed into the body. The fat then comes out (get ready for it) with your feces. If you eat a large pizza, you're still taking in a ton of calories and Alli won't do much for you. It will still siphon off some of the fat...

How are members of the U.S. Supreme court choosen, what is the process? "Power to nominate the Justices is vested in the President of the United States, and appointments are made with the advice and consent of the Senate."

Individual states have supreme courts as do other countries.

Hey I am pregnant and I wanna cut my hair but people have told me I should wait until after I have the baby, can cutting your hair while your pregnant make it dry or crazy? My understanding is that some people might say to hold off on cutting your hair because the shape of your face might change during pregnancy as you carry some extra weight. People might also say that because of some chemicals used in treating hair (dyes and the like) that might be risky for an unborn kid. I seem to remember my sisters finding that their hair was thicker during pregnancy...

My grandad was in hospital a few weeks ago, and my mum was reading the notes but was told that it was inappropriate to read them. should they not be moved if the family is not allowed to read them? If you go by the letter of the rules, it was not appropriate to read them without your grandfather signing a release form to allow it to happen. The exception to that would be if your mother had power of attorney or some other legal status that would permit her to look at the chart. It might seem like her being the patient's daughter should suffice but legally, it doesn't.

Why? This isn't my info but you got me curious so I looked it up: Each hair on your body grows from its own individual hair follicle. Inside the follicle, new hair cells form at the root of the hair shaft. As the cells form, they push older cells out of the follicle. As they are pushed out, the cells die and become the hair we see. A follicle will produce new cells for a certain period of...

Let me give you one highlight: in 2002, the federal government allowed a maximum tax deduction for an electric vehicle ("EV") of $4,000. In 2003, the maximum deduction for a vehicle weighing 6,000 pounds or over (SUVs, etc.). was $100,000.

In psychology, how are delusions classified as either "bizarre" or "non-bizarre"? The word "bizarre" generally isn't used if a mental health professional is assessing someone's delusions.

Otherwise, the term is seen as being too judgmental for clinical assessments.

I cant get an abortion b.c i dont beleive in it. Wat should i do? 2 things: Have you been tested in a medical setting to confirm your pregnancy? It may sound silly of me to ask but sometimes people go only by home pregnancy tests and those should be followed up with a more formal test to confirm the results. The other thing -- in another question, you said you were 17.5 years old. I'm confused about that.

Money means nothing if you don't even have the spirit to enjoy it.

The thing you have to be careful of in assailing video games in relationship to obesity is that while games do involve sitting for long periods of time, so can reading, knitting, writing, etc., etc. I realize that most parents would weep with joy if their kid was sitting there reading a book instead of playing "Resident Evil." But they wouldn't be any more active. ...

It also requires much less physical space -- a music station is going to have album/CD libraries and the like.

What can you do to prevent full-term pregnancy after you find out that you're pregnant? Is abortion the only way? My understanding is that the drug, RU-486, can be used for this purpose. I have no idea of what the availability of the drug is like -- you might want to check with someplace like Planned Parenthood.

Answer to:
For xbox live can you just buy a ethernet cord connect it to your modem and connect it to your xbox and put in your subscription code and be ready to play? I'm pretty sure the answer to your question is "yes." I bought the card, patched the cord from 360 to my cable modem. Then you enter the information from the card and you're able to access their downloads, live play, etc. There can be other costs if you use their marketplace where you can buy different stuff but I believe what you described at least gets you in the door.

Answer to:
Is it possible for one to get pregnant if you masturbated the night before, took a shower in the morning, and had unprotected sex without ejaculation around 4pm? Possible, yes. Pre-ejaculatory fluid (aka, "pre-cum") can have sperm in it. It's not thought to have it in sufficient quantities for a chance at pregnancy but - as they say - it only takes one. By the way -- the only really significant part of your question for a possibility of pregnancy is "unprotected sex." Granted, a lack of ejaculation tinkers with the...

How often does a guy think about sex? Sorry -- I had my fun. Now I'll try to provide an answer. There's an oft-reported stat that men think about sex every 7 seconds. But research from the Kinsey Institute doesn't agree with that. "According to the Kinsey Institute's FAQ, '54% of men think about sex every day or several times a day, 43% a few times per month or a few times per week, and 4% less...

If it's not that severe right now, then get some outpatient help as soon as possible. People on the internet can...

Where did Life Savers Candy get it's name from? WarriorSoul is right -- just wanted to add somethiing about where the name did not come from. There is an urban legend about the creation of Life Savers which states that the creator's daughter died after choking on a hard candy, and that the hole in the middle was included to prevent further death (thus earning the name Life Saver). This tale is often mistaken for truth and is probably...

Why wern't most Canadians concerned about foreign investment in 1956? It was a period of extreme nationalism, anti-American sentiment - fueled in part by disdain for Joe McCarthy and his antics - and a healthy GDP. (The GDP began to decline soon thereafter, though.) The Royal Commission on Canada’s Economic Prospects, chaired by Walter Gordon, released a report that supported this economic protectionism. This report was later attacked as being more of a...

Many years ago, I was told that a woman was murdered during the recording of the Ohio Players song "Rollercoaster of Love". You can hear a scream in the background during the interlude, does anyone have any facts relating to this? I've heard this as well. The following is from Snopes.com: The real source of the scream -- and the origins of the rumor -- were explained by Ohio Player Jimmy "Diamond" Williams: There is a part in the song where there's a breakdown. It's guitars and it's right before the second verse and Billy Beck does one of those inhaling-type screeches like Minnie...

An Internet search reveals that "Norkotah" is a type of potato in the russet family. What is the derivation of the word? I can't say that I know this is the root of the word but that type of potato was released in 1987 by North Dakota State University, and I'm hazarding a guess that "Norkotah" is some sort of fusion of "North" and "Dakota."

The threat of violence is especially troubling to me. If you feel that there's any chance you might get hurt, it's a good idea to act much sooner...

There seemed to be some question in the MD's mind about the hygiene of the gun devices used at some...

What impression do you have of New Zealand? I haven't been there myself but my mother spent about a month there last year. She loved it -- said the people were incredibly polite and helpful. Gorgeous, lush green countryside. The only thing that's tricky is their seasons are the opposite of those in the USA (where we live). You have to prepare accordingly.

Aside from avoiding certain cholesterol laden foods and meds which can be prescribed to bring down a "high" cholesterol, are there any foods one can eat that actually have the effect of bringing down a high cholesterol?

Any number of breakfast cereals mention helping with cholesterol and it makes perfect sense that oatmeal would be helpful as well.

Answer to:
Aside from avoiding certain cholesterol laden foods and meds which can be prescribed to bring down a "high" cholesterol, are there any foods one can eat that actually have the effect of bringing down a high cholesterol? Choose foods that are rich in unsaturated fats, such as oily fish, avocados and sunflower, rapeseed and olive oils. Unsaturated fats can help to lower cholesterol. Examples of "oily fish:" salmon, trout, mackerel, herring, sardines, tuna, anchovies, swordfish. Note that the tuna must be fresh to count as an oily fish because the canning process reduces the level of omega-3 oil....

I'm 14 and I love acting, voice acting, singing, and modeling. I want to really get started in the buisiness, although I live in a state that is too far away from where most agencies are. How could I really get started? Start by striving for success locally. If you haven't already studied acting, look for lessons where you live and see if there are local theater groups (aka, "community theater") that do plays. Do any movies come to shoot where you are? The city I live in has a casting agency that is used when movies and TV shows come to shoot on location. All of this serves 3...
