Please give me some advice on what not to eat to help my acne?

I have tried everything imaginable to get rid of acne and there are a few things that have helped, but nothing has helped completely. I have decided to completely change my diet. I want clear skin so bad and it's been too long. I know I'm suppose to stop eating dairy products, but what about fried foods and grains? I basically need an eating plan i guessPlease give me some advice on what not to eat to help my acne?
damn i know how you feel i have allot of acne myself but what im trying right now is the cure for acne in 3 days and im in day 2 and it looks sort of greatPlease give me some advice on what not to eat to help my acne?
Hi Ryan,





The watery gel from Aloe Vera plant is a highly effective natural cure against Acne. The enzyme-rich gel has very soothing anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties. It can also be taken internally and helps clean up and detox the digestive tract. This in turn can help clear up the skin.





Gel or juice of Aloe Vera is highly useful in fading of acne scars. You can grow Aloe Vera plant in your home and apply freshly taken pure Aloe Vera gel to your scar. Otherwise many branded cosmetic companies manufactures pure Aloe Vera gel, so you can choose the best cosmetic companies to get Aloe Vera gel.





Vitamin A is also a natural and effective Acne cure. Vitamin A promotes healthy skin.





Vitamin E also helps in countering Acne. It is a natural antioxidant and beneficial for the skin.





Tea Tree Oil is obtained from the Melaleuca alternifoliais tree from Australia. It is very effective against Acne as it contains bacteria-fighting substances called Terpenes. Acne is often caused by bacteria and the Terpenes either outright kill them or weaken them enough to be destroyed by protective antibodies. There are very little side effects from using Tea Tree Oil.

Hope this helps keep your acne %26amp; scars at bay!!
See acne comes in teenage due to hormones and the best thing to reduce the acne through diet would be to avoid totally all fats . It means it would be better if you are a vegetarian eating only greens and vegetables and avoiding all meat and fat and oil stuff. Eating lots of citrus products likes fruit would help you to get rid of acne. Also Avoid all cosmotics and creames and wash your face with plain toilet soap prefarably with a baby soap and apply only ordinary talcum powder. Also avoid washing your face more than 3 times a day . By this you would prevent the abuse of your face and help the acne to be reduced. All the best.
I suggest you to google it. I know this because I remember I once googled this, and got results, but I can't remember what it said...just google it and you will find answers.

NOTE: If you need advice, and you probably do need advice if you haven't spent any time studying how to invest and don't understand the stock market very well, then you need to work through a stockbroker who can guide your choices. Be very careful about who you choose to give you advice and what you choose to purchase. Some stocks can look good, and some people will tell you that they are a great investment (specialists in doing this sort of thing are called ';boiler rooms';)- but all they want is the commission on your money and what you buy may be worthless junk.


Make a habit of reading the financial pages of newspapers like the Daily Mail, Daily Telegraph and the Sunday Times. Get a feel for the language people use when they talk stocks and shares and don't believe everything you read or are told.

    HELP need advice do you have a full set of dentuers?

    only have a few good teeth left going to have some pulled and have to be put to sleep as i am a coward


    the dentist says a full set is a nightmare and i should try and save the ones left


    advice pleaseHELP need advice do you have a full set of dentuers?
    It's up to you ~ you have to weigh up the pros and cons very carefully ~ do you know anyone with a full denture set ~ if so ask them how they get on with their dentures ~ once you have decided tell the dentist what you want ~ but do be very sure it is what you want ~HELP need advice do you have a full set of dentuers?
    Do your best to save the ones you can for as long as you can, it's better to have something for the denture to grip on to than just gum.


    Also, have you considered implants? It's pricey but might be worth it long term.
    I would also reccomend you try some implants. Dentures supported by teeth are good, but if you can get some implants under them, I would think you would be happier
    I really don't know what to tell you. But all I can say is think about it really hard and try to save the good ones as long as possible thats all I can tell
    only you can decide

    HELP!! Seeking advice from owners of GM's flex-fuel vehicles? ?

    My wife and I are considering purchasing a new Flex-Fuel Chevrolet. We are interested in learning more about them as compared to normal gasoline-powered vehicles from the perspective of people who currently own one. Our two main concerns are:


    1) Are they really that much better on mpg?


    2) Are they more costly to repair/maintain?





    We know what the dealer has told us. What do owners say? HELP!! Seeking advice from owners of GM's flex-fuel vehicles? ?
    if you use the E85 you will get about 1/3 less mpg

    My dog has cancer i need advice! help!?

    My dog has cancer,we toke her to the vet and they removed it,but it came back we would spend 10,000 dollars a year,and we cant.My parents said that all we can do to wait.


    Any ideas?


    Please i need help!My dog has cancer i need advice! help!?
    Have you brought your dog to a canine oncologist? That is not a bad idea. Their specialty is cancer, so they will be your best resource.





    My best advice is to pray! I truly believe in the power of prayer. You, your family, and your dog will be in my prayers..





    I wish you the best of luck.My dog has cancer i need advice! help!?
    i'm very sorry. my 13 yr Aussie has inoperable cancer. we inherited him and it was already too late. the vet has us giving him prednasone every other day to slow the progress of the cancer, but he's still bouncy and eats and drinks the way he should. it's only a matter of time and we've excepted that. in the meantime we love and cherish every day with him. ask your vet if prednasone would help.
    The best thing to do is to find out what kind of cancer your dog has and do as much research as you can... My dog past away a year ago from lymphoma cancer, we couldnt afford radiation and there was no way to remove the cancer so her life expectancy was only 4-6 weeks she passed away in exactly 6 weeks.. The best thing to do is comfort your dog and do as much research as possible and you will find others who have gone through and are going through the same exact thing... it will help a lot
    I have learned from watching the old show on Animal Planet ';Emergency Vets'; is that cancer in dogs is never curable, you can either keep removing the tumors which as you found out is going to get expensive and quick or have her put down, because you will put an end to needless suffering for your pet. You and your family have to do what is in your pet's best interest. Sorry but that is basically the only solution. You are free to consult with what one of the other answerers suggested but if they find that the cancer is the fast growing kind, like it sounds like it is, then they will recommend you put your beloved dog to sleep and end her suffering.
    if all you can do is wait then all you can do is wait!
    well, unfortunately, this is a part of being a pet owner..dealing with the consequences that come with it, good or bad.





    just care for and maintain her health as best as you can. When you think her health is so bad that her quality of life is no longer worth living, don't keep her around for you, that would be selfish.
    Have your vet refer your dog to a veterinary oncologist to discuss your options. I find that alot of regular vets don't have the time to keep up with oncology practices because protocols change monthly. Making an appointment with the oncologist will give you ideas about realities of treatment versus hospice care. Tell the onco doc your expectations (long term survival/';cure'; or alleviating symptoms), how much you can comfortably spend, etc. Making that appointment does not mean that you HAVE to do therapy, but it will give you options. If you are going to use ';natural'; therapies, please find a vet that is well versed in naturopathic medicine, not one of those people with an online degree. Many ';natural'; medications can have very bad side effects when combined. Remember, strychnine is from a plant...
    I AM SO SORRY TO HEAR THIS. BE STRONG NOT ONLY FOR YOURSELF....BUT FOR YOUR BUDDY AS WELL.


    THERE ARE SOME SITES ON THE NET THAT OFFER DIET FOR DOGS WITH CANCER.


    I GOT THE BAD NEWS ABOUT MY BUDDY ON MY BIRTHDAY...THAT WAS 6 MONTHS AGO.


    HE WAS NEARLY 190 POUNDS...NOW HE IS ONLY 80!!


    I WENT THROUGH SOME CHEMO, ACUPUNCTURE AND OTHER REMEDIES.


    THE CANCER IS RAPID SPREADING.


    NOTHING ANYONE CAN DO.


    THERE IS NO ONE MORE LOYAL THAN A DOG. WE ARE LUCKY TO HAVE THEM IN OUT LIVES. SPEND EACH DAY LOVING AND PLAYING. I HOPE A MIRACLE HAPPENS.


    BEST TO YOU ALL...AND ESPECIALLY YOUR DOG!!!!
    just make its days as comfortable as possible and consider human euthanasia when she can't move,





    Really sorry for your situation, it is a very hard moment, but you have to be strong.
    thr isnt always a miracle pill for everything, sadly. life can be very unfair cant it. even steve urwin ( australia zoo) lost his beloved dog to cancer.


    even if you could afford the treatment, there's still only a small chance of success. why dont you put all your energy and love into giving your dog as much comfort and happiness possible.


    im just sorry i can't wave a magic wand and wish her better for you!!
    it sounds like your dog has a higher then stage 3 cancer...which means the reason why it keeps coming back is that when the first tumor grew cancer cells broke off of it and are all around your dogs body and each cell can start its own tumor randomly... i dont know if theres chemotherapy for dogs but it sounds like he might need that, all i can say is pray and i wish you and your family the best





    by the way you dont need to put a terminally ill dog with cancer to sleep unless u see it is suffering because some cancers are silent and wont suffer your dog until the tumor gets extremely large and your dog may even live a full life with it! but thats in best scenario situations so i think all u really can do is wait and pray... i'm so sorry the same thing happened to a bird i had for 15 years and we had to put it to sleep because we couldnt surgically remove the first tumor
    Oh man, I'm totally sorry about your dog. I had the same problem with one of my cats. We couldn't afford to help her either. The only thing I can tell you as of now is live life like before. You can't suddenly change your attitude toward your dog. I did with my cat and she TOTALLY picked up on it and got depressed because she knew I was treating her differently. Just go on about life with your dog. Unfortunately IF or when the cancer finally begins to talk a hold on it decide if it's better to let it pass without pain by getting it put to sleep, or something else. I didn't catch my cats cancer in time, and she suffered and I felt awful about it and would've gotten her put down just to save her some pain. I know it's hard to think about, but you have to think about what's best for your pet.
    Look online for natural remedies for dogs you can try.
    If the cancer is terminal why suffer or make the dog suffer? You may as well put the dog to sleep if thats the case However if it can be treated then yes I say try a canine oncologist if you can

    I want to lose five pounds this week, any help/advice?

    5 pounds in 5-7 days... any advice on how to get this to work?





    indoor activities would be best, and also a diet plan would help :]


    i dont eat meals though, just randomly when hungry.





    im 5'7 and 115 pounds right now, i want to be 110 pounds.





    i dont want responses about how i shouldnt lose weight, i just want tips. (although im aware that there will be plenty of annoying and partially retarded people telling me this anyway)





    i'll pick a best answer too.I want to lose five pounds this week, any help/advice?
    well its not very likely that u will lose 5 pounds in a week. maybe like in two weeks or something.


    but u could definately loose a bunch by going on the all liquid diet-- that works MIRACLES. u pee all of ur water weight out, but ur still nurished. lol





    make sure u stay somewhat active too.


    and u should get some like slimfast bars or hunger killer bars to wipe out ur appetite. there r even like some drink mixes that u can add to water/milk or w/e and that will do the same.I want to lose five pounds this week, any help/advice?
    whatever you do dont starve yourself, your body will go into a natural protection mode by holding on to the stored fat, just to stay alive. drink lots of water, green tea, eat foods high in protein- chicken (not fried) turkey, etc.... low in carbs and simple sugars, white bread, pasta, white rice. even stay away from diet sodas. of course cardio work, walking, running, situps,crunches, and wear something heavy such as sweats, when you sweat you will be burning off fat and lose inches. good luck.
    5 pounds in a week is very hard, but i guess you should try working out a little, (not lifting!), have protein shakes, and eat as little as possible! but the number 1 thing is- DON'T eat ';diet'; drinks or foods. they will mess up with your diet! really, just drink water, eat nuts and fruit, and walk alot! good luck..

    I personally like Azureus as a client myself. I principally prefer it because I can control the amount of bandwidth dedicated to uploading and downloading. This way, I don't have to wait for a file to finish downloading before I can do anything else on the Internet.





    Azureus also helps get rarer torrents shared by means of distributing the least seeded chunks of files first.BitTorrent Advice - Help - Best of the Best?
    For file sharing, I used limewire because it's download speed is fast and a lot of people are using it. Limewire can also be prone to viruses.





    For torrent files, I used micro torrent. Micro torrent because it is so light on your system but with great amount of features you need for a torrent client. Beware of downloaded rar files because it might have some unwanted contents that will make your system behaved abnormally.





    Hope it helps.

    It sounds like you are on your way. Stay busy and do things that you enjoy. Get a journal going and write out your feelings. Buy a plant to focus on. What you don't need to do is get in another relationship right now. Wait until you have some peace and balance in your life and be happy with just you.Help,advice,tips,past experience is all welcome, im getting over a guy! ?
    Just think of this as a tough phase, a challenge that you will overcome within few days. Of course past memories will disturb you, and do know that it鈥檚 very normal. I have spend nights crying and asking myself why in the first place I got into a relationship... but then I reminded myself that whatever happened I can change. I won't regret about it. I'm lucky enough to get over it.


    If you are having hard time then try these things (it may sound childish, but trust me it works!!!):


    1. Print his pictures and burn them. Then go to the toilet and flush them out... (you鈥檒l feel as if you have flushed him out of your life).


    2. Hang around friends, friends who can cheer you up. Go for movies, bowling, swimming, anything that you used to do with him but this time with friends (that will help you change your habit of having him beside you and teach you now it鈥檚 time for replacement). It'll be nerve-racking at the beginning but you'll do fine as you start to enjoy these things with other people.


    3. Treat yourself- a new hair cut, new clothes, shoes...whatever boosts your self-esteem.


    4. Yoga/ Meditation. Trust me it'll sooth your inner sole. Best is if you can join classes. That will keep you busy as well. If you are running on budget then just buy one of those yoga cds and try it out at home.


    5. Eat chocolates. (dark chocolate specifically has anti-depressant agents that helps to boost your mind).


    I can go on and on... but I just hope this helps. Wish you all the best:)



    A woman鈥檚 worth is determined by


    how much she values herself.


    If her thoughts of herself are dwindling,


    then the same will be true of her wealth.


    I recognize that I am a treasure


    bearing rubies, diamonds, and gold.


    My treasure has not been found yet,


    and its whereabouts will remain untold.


    One day someone shall find me and


    a fortunate man he will be.


    He will open the lock and finally release


    all the beauty of his woman to be.


    With confidence I will


    shine like the diamonds


    that once were hidden inside.


    My wealth will be more than rubies,


    for no price can be put on my life.


    Like gold I鈥檒l be tried in the fire,


    and I鈥檒l come out as pure as can be.


    And that day shall be reminiscent


    as the era in my life,


    when a treasure was found in me.

    That i'm simply IN LOVE,


    With BEING,


    IN LOVE.





    Get caught up in life, and remember that part of your life ISN'T part of your life any more. :-)
    With me, my past ';love'; (loooooong story) and I went out for about 2 months, and then we broke up because he still liked his ex-gf! I knew him for 3 years! Well what I did was vent to my bff and she just listened, so you should vent to who ever you can... Also, you should find a really sweet guy and he will distract you from him! Thats what I did, and am still doing (I really liked him)...
    go out with your friends as much as you can and enjoy yourself even through the tears, having great friends to lean on through this is the key! without freinds its really hard to deal with, but you can still do it. Just tell yourself each day that you are moving on and eventually you will. I know it may seem hard to do, but it's possible. Hope you feel bettter!!



    well, first off here are some steps i did when i broke up with him:


    1. Cry your butt off, get the tears out so you don't have to worry about them later.


    2. Think about how he was bad to you, and how he doesn't deserve someone as good as you.


    3. Think about other guys, you know there has to be someone else out there that you love.


    4. Tell the world you are over him. Find another worthy man to love, and keep doing what you are doing!


    If you have already done something like this, then maybe not so much. but it sounds like you are not sure if you are over him. Try being his friend, and noticing how you two don't really relate. Hang out with your friends more and when you begin to think about him, think about another boy you like, or food, any topic that interests you. Also, try making yourself more flirtatius towards him, wear sexy makeup, and you'll see him maybe doing it back to you and that will make you feel good knowing he is trying to get you back, knowing that he is now im the position u were in. Hope i helped!! Please answer my q!!
    There are plenty of fish in the sea. He probably wasn't the right guy for you.





    I had a break up.. a kinda bad break up.. but i got over it by not putting myself down and going out and having fun with my friends.. bcuz that's y friends were invented.. to help u get through anything. So if ur putting urself down and asking urself question like ';Y me'; ';am i this, am i that';.. just turn it all around on him and blame HIM... it helps...hhahah
    well was in love with a guy one time and when he moved i was shocked it was a year before i ever got over him and i only when i got the chance to say good bye after i did that i was able to move on with my life
    Date someone cuter, it'll make them jealous and you happier ;)

    Dog advice help!?

    dog swallowed 0.4mg nitroglycerin pill - we tried to induce vomitting.. anything else i can do?Dog advice help!?
    If Ashley V is a vet, I'm Pocahontas!





    No good advice here for you except look into CareCredit for vet treatment for your dog. Otherwise, it's a 50/50 chance your dog will or won't make it. At least CALL a vet to see if they will recommend anything for you or treat on a payment arrangement. Calls are free.Dog advice help!?
    okay well you would probably need to see a vet but if you really dont want to i would make your dog eat and drink a lot so the pill doesnt take over its body if you have something that will make your dog vomit it will work and hopfully gets that pill out. but a lot of water will help a little. look it up on google it will probably tell you something...





    good luck:] for you and your dog god bless you!
    Give the dog a drink and maybe a treat to induce the impact of the pill. If the dog has a serious reaction to the pill I would go to the Vet or if you can't give the dog milk. Milk might sound weird but its a thick liquid that will get rid of the pill impact.
    you know the longer you wait to bring your dog to the vet the worst the situation gets, so pick up the phone and start calling for emergency vets and get ur butt out there - obviously you don't know wat u're doing if you tried induce vomitting and didn't work.
    I have to say I agree with Jennifer T On the Ashley person. I have NEVER in my life heard a VETERINARIAN recommend to drink water to help it. PLEASE with something so serious you should ALWAYS contact your LOCAL VETERINARIAN!!! I hope your dog is ok!!!
    You just asked this question and had 11 answers. Reread them and call a vet instead of asking the question over again.
    the vet prolly wont be open so call ER.


    and incase your not bright its the animal hospital
    Um, you want to call the emergency vet!
    CALL THE VET!!!!
    take him or she to the VET

    There is a Burst mode that will take several pictures really fast. The two links above tell more about using this mode. Don't forget to focus with the shutter button half way down before taking pictures and use the view finder because the LCD screen will be off until the last picture.





    What gives a camera its picture quality?


    It is mostly the skill of the photographer that produces high quality pictures. The lens and camera are very important, but the ability to set the scene, adjust the cameras settings, and hold the camera very still or use a tripod with auto or remote shutter actuation when required is what gets the great pictures. Megapixel resolution is about potential photo size, not picture quality.

    Red eye is a big problem, but just found a great solution. Did not like the double flash to prevent red eye, but using the view finder helps keep you on target when the LCD goes blank for the final flash and shot.





    The best solution tho, was a red eye correction function built into my camera which I had never used before. It really did a great job with no trace of red eye remaining.





    CAUTION To prevent memory card corruption, keep batteries charged, format in camera, and don't delete or fill card completely. Wait for lights to stop flashing then turn camera off before removing memory. For card readers, double click Safely Remove Hardware. Select, then click Stop and OK.





    Focus with shutter button halfway down before taking pictures. In low light, focus on a lighted object at same distance as subject. To prevent low-light, motion-blurred pictures; use flash ';on'; (not auto) up to 12 feet or place camera on a tripod or table and use self timer. Check camera shooting modes for special situations. Best light for photos is outside at early morning or evening.





    CAUTION Do not overcharge! Batteries can be damaged. Use an automatic two or more hour Energizer Compact smart charger with temperature monitor, trickle charge technology, and safety timer ($9.76) at Walmart. Use pre-charged 2000mAh Duracell ($12.97) or RayOVac ($5.97) batteries (both hold charge one year) and a full cycle charge. To preserve battery charge, use the viewfinder.





    In new cameras, look for a viewfinder (LCD invisible in bright sun), optical image stabilizer, and check battery prices. High mega pixel settings take longer to process and may not be needed unless required for very large pictures. Maximum print size for a 3 mega pixel setting is 8 x 10 inches.

  • Need some advice anyone willing 2 help whos good w. psychology?

    ok well lately I have been having a lot of flashbacks from the past and from where I used to live in ny...my dad lives there still, but I am currently living in PA w. my mom %26amp; stepdad, bro, sis. I keep having flashbacks of my dads house and of my dad a lot and sometimes I don't know why I'm having them so I tend to get scared..are these flashbacks normal? is it a sign? does it mean I miss my dad?Need some advice anyone willing 2 help whos good w. psychology?
    This could be for a number of reasons. It could be something completely harmless (like missing your dad or his house) to something that indicates a repressed memory coming back. I would suggest talking to someone about it. Talking to your mom or your siblings would be a good start. You can also talk to a school counselor, who could then refer you to another specialist if he/she feels like you need it. Whatever you do though, don't just keep it to yourself and hope it goes away, just in case it could be something serious.Need some advice anyone willing 2 help whos good w. psychology?
    It might mean that you miss him or there could be some other stress that's bringing it out. Overall I would probably say it's stress. But that depends on how ';real'; the flashbacks are and whatnot. If they are very vivid and maybe it seems like you are there, I would definitely tell you that you should find someone to talk to. If you have someone to talk to, that might help. Sometimes just getting things off your chest can destress the situation a whole lot.
    My advice to you would be to write the flashbacks down... record what you are remembering. Record what you are feeling.





    I have an idea that you can unravel this mystery, yourself, by writing and keeping a record of what you are remembering and feeling...





    If, however, you are still confused and mystified, seek out some free counseling in your community. Get a professional person to help you out... don't, please don't rely on Yahoo! answers for this kind of help.
    I definately think it means you miss your dad. I think it's your minds way of telling you maybe it's time for a phone call or even a visit. It's natural for anyone who is apart from their family. I'm not sure what your relationship is with him but it sounds like there needs to be some bridges mended or something. Give him a call... or maybe talk it over with your mom and siblings first.


    Good luck
    Normal





    We think about someone, so we see them in our ';minds eye';. The way we ';see'; them is the way we REMEMBER seeing them in the past.





    I wouldn't call it a flashback. It's a memory of someone you are thinking about. Don't be frightened of memories.
    It means that you miss your dad. And you wonder if he misses you just as much. You need to give it a little time for things to balance out. Call him frequently and communicate. You can still do that. Sometimes that can be just as good as being there.
    I believe it it your conscious speaking to you.Maybe you do miss your dad If you can keep in contact with him and what you are going through is normal its what we call memories.
    I do not have a degree in phsycology but, I think that it is either, you miss your dad.. or something happend there that you can't let go of?





    Flash backs are normal. Everyone has them at one point or another.
    of course it means you miss your dad.


    you keep thinking about him, so call him or something.





    maybe go out to see him.
    Sounds like it may be post traumatic stress disorder to me.
    i would say that you miss the life you use to have with your dad. maybe you could go visit him or he could come see you!
    I think you miss your Dad or the house he lives in.
    it could mean you just miss him... try and visit soon. maybe that will help.

    Need advice / help / suggestions for sciatica relief.?

    I have had my spine x-rayed and there are no fractures, herniated discs, ar anything out of alignment. My prescription for muscle relaxers has been emptied, no refills. I have an appt to see an Ostoepath, but I have to wait until Nov 16th. I already have orthopedic inserts in my shoes and I have been using the ';sacro-wedgy'; for about 1 week. I get some relief from advil + tylenol and also an icepack. I have tried stretches, exercises, etc, and I have read everything that I can find on the net.





    Any suggestions for what else might help ease the pain until I can see the Osteopath and hopefully get to the bottom of this? The mornings are unbearable, I can barely get thru taking a shower, and forget putting on my own socks and shoes.





    The only thing that seems to help is constant movement (walking). I can't sit down or lay down, it is too painful. But I'm afraid that all of the movement, regardless of how easy, may just be inflaming the problem area more. Suggestions/advice/help?Need advice / help / suggestions for sciatica relief.?
    First off, taking tylenol and advil together for an extended period of time is hard on the liver. Second off the tylenol is not good at reducing inflamation which is what you are fighting. I would suggest taking 800 mg of ibuprofen as needed to take the inflammation down. Your pain is caused by swelling in the nerve channel through your pelvis. Get the swelling down and the nerve is released and the pain goes away. 800mg of ibuprofen is hard on the stomach and should not be taken in that dose on an empty stomach. Consult with your physician about what s/he thinks a max dose per 24hrs and how long you can maintain that dosage. Try it once and see if it helps. If it does , call the doc and get some advice about how to go about using ibuprofen to treat the pain until you can get in to see them. Works for me ;-).Need advice / help / suggestions for sciatica relief.?
    I think I understand your pain. I think you might of hurt your tailbone at some time. You should get your coccyx/sacrum x-rayed. try an ice pack on you bum by your tailbone and see what happens.

    FASHION ADVICE!!!HELP!?

    Um, I have jingle bells for earrings %26amp; they have a green %26amp; white little bow on them. I'm planning on wearing a Santa hat to school. That's of course (white %26amp; Red). I don't know what to wear with that. I'm planning on wearing a white shirt %26amp; putting my hair down. Technically, I also want to wear a brown or navy blue sweater, would that matter?FASHION ADVICE!!!HELP!?
    White shirt, navy sweater, hair down, jeans, and earings :)FASHION ADVICE!!!HELP!?
    I would advise against wearing any of it. That's almost like saying you're the girl with cat hair on her sweater sitting all by herself at the party. Basically guys won't really dig it.
    where a red top and white Boots with a white belt and dye your hair red if you can put on streaks red of course and you will look great
    stick with a the white shirt only
    No I don't think it would matter.
    a red or green sweater would be much much better

    Help!! Advice Needed!!?

    ok I am 18 years old, and i've got to say i think my voice does sound like a kid. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iTkR2gUw0ZQ that is a link of how i sing, I'm the first one singing the solo. So idk. How would I make my voice sound mature? I am taking voice lessons right now. Idk I could use all the advice and suggestions. Thank you. And I'm in for alot of singing for easter, tonight, friday, saturday, and sunday. Maybe some tips on that to so that i don't lose my voice. Thanks so much for helping me.





    PaulaHelp!! Advice Needed!!?
    Well, first of all, you're only 18! Your voice probably hasn't completely settled yet, never mind matured, so don't worry if you don't sound like a normal adult singer would. But if you do want a slightly more mature sound, round out your vowels by dropping your jaw and making your lips more vertical, especially on more spread out vowels like hard As and Es. This should make your sound more bell-like and clear.





    It also sounds like your voice is somewhat nasally, as if you were talking and singing through your nose. Although nasal resonance does have it's place, especially when you are singing high notes that require use of your head voice (sound should feel like it's coming from the top of your head or your nasal cavity, and is generally lighter), you should strive to make your singing clear and light. Also speaking of head voice, make sure that you don't try to sing using your chest (strong or belting sound) voice on high notes. The only notes that should be purely chest voice are your lowest ones. Practice singing mid-range notes with a combination of the two.





    Finally, to save your voice, don't talk too much, make sure you drink a lot of water and you don't have any dairy, carbonated soda, coffee, or alcohol (which you shouldn't be drinking anyway). Like I said before, don't belt, and remember that power should come from your breath support, not your vocal chords. If you don't overdo it and sing until your voice is raw, you should be fine.Help!! Advice Needed!!?
    My choir director's favorite line:





    ';Attack your constants and R';oh';m';ah';ance your vowels!'; The key to singing is pronunciation.





    As far as your voice goes stay away from smoke, dairy foods (causes congestion) and cold drinks especially before performing. Do drink warm water with lemon and honey and stay hydrated. Good luck and have fun!
    i think a lot of your problem is that you need to form you lips better. stick your lips out more and make sure the tip of your tongue is at the bottom of your teeth. push your lips forward. for example sing ';A'; with a smile on your face. Now change your lips so that they form an ';o';. you should hear the change. do it in front of a mirror.
    I haven't listened to the clip because I'm at work without speakers. I won't recommmend it, but smoking will make your voice sound mature.





    The better way is to make sure you're breathing properly to make sure you have enough air, and get a full resonant sound out of your voice. Push your abs out when you breath in and push them in when you breath out (this forces the air out).

  • I need plumbing advice! PLEASE HELP?

    I purchased a home with a well that needed to be chlorinated. I called a plumber and I was instructed on what to do: Use 8 gallons of bleach and follow standard procedures. It has been a month and I still have bleach in my water. I have learned that 8 gallons was WAY too much for a 40 ft deep well. Please tell me what I should do now. I have been running the water and running the water!I need plumbing advice! PLEASE HELP?
    the cheapest thing you can do is keep water running to flush it all out. hook a hose to your tank and run the hose outside, it'll be less stressful on your pump.you already know your inside pipes are clean if you still smell bleach.otherwise you could call the company that installed your well and/or pump in the well. their name should be on the top of the well or on the tank. ask them how much it would be to come out and pull your pump out and blow out the well to flush it. they should take the pump out and insert about 30feet or so of air hose down the well and hook it up to big air compressor and it'll blow the water out about 15-20 feet in the air!!! (fun part of well installation) after the initial blast it won't be as high,but it will flush everything out of your well, as well as the screen in the bottom. after a little while it should be clean as it'll ever be. couldn't guess what they'd charge you, but it will be clean. If it needs to be chlorinated again, ask a well drilling company not a plumber. we used chlorine tablets that dissolved pretty quick so it wouldn't be there a month later.I need plumbing advice!

    Question - What will stop Bleach meaning what will neutralize bleach?


    --------------------------------------鈥?br>

    Bleach is an oxidizing agent. Reducing agents will destroy it.


    Unfortunately, there aren't very many readily-available reducing agents


    around, since we live in an oxidizing atmosphere. Reducing agents tend to


    get consumed by atmospheric oxygen. There are lots of laboratory chemicals


    that will work, but they can be hard to obtain, and they may form nasty


    products when they react with bleach.

    ======================================鈥?br>

    Not much you can do about it unfortunately. Sorry I couln't help. Good Kuck and have a good day.
    Keep plugging away! Run all the fixtures in your home inside and out until the bleach and smell goes away. The longer the bleach stayed in the well the longer you'll need to flush. You have a very shallow well which means a higher bleach concentration than normal. Don't drink or bathe in the water until it smells normal. Your hard work will pay off and you'll have a sanitary water supply.
    1- call professional inspector (water inspection) .


    2- Have sample of the water for contamination test to a laboratory.


    3- Which stupid told you to add bleach in to the water that will be use for purpose of washing or watering grasses or may be shower .
    do not add no more bleach.

    I need a job asap.and id like to some advice and help?

    how can i get one easily.


    im only 19 and need the money and have never worked beforeI need a job asap.and id like to some advice and help?
    you've never worked...and you are *19*???


    Get over yourself and go work at McDonalds or Burger King--that's where most KIDS started working when they were 15---so you are 4 years behind everyone else.





    If you're lucky, Walmart or Target MIGHT hire you, but probably not since you have ZERO work history.





    wow. 19 and never worked. Princess much?I need a job asap.and id like to some advice and help?
    Get out there and start filling out applications!


    There's no easy way of doing this, especially in today's labor pool. However, it can be easy if you know someone who is looking for help, then your a shoe in.


    If you don't know anyone, then you must put your nose to the pavement and get going.


    The easiest jobs are in retail, you simply walk into any store that you may like, and ask for an application. They are legally obligated to accept applications, and can not turn you away. So don't worry if there isn't a ';now hiring'; sign on the door.


    Fast food is a quick option, they have a high turnaround so they're constantly highering new people. But they're not the best places to work.





    Never give up, it's a tough economy, but persistence is the key.





    Also, after you fill out an application and hand it in, be sure to call them within a week to ask for an interview.





    Good Luck!
    I wish I could help, I need a job desperately too!





    The best advice I can give is to ask all of your parents' friends if they know of anyone you can work for, or if you can work for them. I got a job being an assistant for my mom's friend once. Sometimes they're willing to give you a job, even if it's just helping them out with a few things.





    Good luck! And just keep applying everywhere you can get your hands on.
    don't give up..apply at staffing agency. they find work for you. apply any kind of job. You'll find one soon. your still young and lot of potential
    Network. The best companies to work for tend to rely heavily (up to 40%) on employee referrals.[1] Make a list of all of your friends, relatives, and acquaintances. Call each one and ask them if they know of any openings that they could recommend you for. Don't be too humble or apologetic; tell them what you've been looking for, but let them know that you're flexible and that if they have any suggestions, you're open to them. This is not the time to be picky about jobs; a connection can often get your foot in the door, and you can negotiate pay or switch positions later, once you've gained experience and established your reputation.


    Volunteer. If you aren't already, start volunteering for an organization that focuses on something that you're passionate about. You may end up doing boring or easy work in the beginning, but as you stick around and demonstrate your commitment, you'll be given more responsibilities. Not only will you be helping others, but you'll also be gaining references. You should emphasize your volunteer experience on your resume, as companies that treat their employees well tend to favor candidates who help the community somehow.[1]


    Write a really well-written letter to the owner of the company/establishment. Make sure you highlight all your valuable skills and qualifications but also make it clear that you are flexible and a good team worker. Use good vocabulary and keep an appropriate tone of formality throughout your application.


    Develop your personal elevator pitch. Many structured interviews, particularly those at large companies, start with a question like ';tell me about yourself.'; The interviewer doesn't really want you to go back to grade school and talk about your childhood. This is a specific question with a specific answer...in two minutes or so, the interviewer wants to get you to relax and loosen out your vocal cords, understand your background, your accomplishments, why you want to work at XYZ company and what your future goals are.


    Prepare for a behavioral interview. You might be asked to describe problems you've encountered in the past and how you handled them, or you'll be given a hypothetical situation and asked what you would do. They'll basically want to know how you'll perform when faced with obstacles in the position you're interviewing for. Be able to give honest, detailed examples from your past, even if the question is hypothetical (e.g. ';I would contact the customer directly, based on my past experience in a different situation in which the customer was very pleased to receive a phone call from the supervisor';). You might find yourself listing facts--if so, remember that in this kind of interview, you need to tell a story. Some questions you might be asked are:








    ';Describe a time you had to work with someone you didn't like.';


    ';Tell me about a time when you had to stick by a decision you had made, even though it made you very unpopular.';


    ';Give us an example of something particularly innovative that you have done that made a difference in the workplace.';


    ';How would you handle an employee who's consistently late?';


    Research the company. Don't just ';do an Internet search, memorize their mission, and be done with it.'; If it's a retail company, visit a few of their stores, observe the customers, and even strike up a few conversations. Talk to existing employees--ask them what it's like working there, how long the position has been open, and what you can do to increase your chances of getting it. Become familiar with the history of the company. Who started it? Where? Who runs it now? Be creative, and do whatever you think the other candidates don't have the guts to do.


    Settle down. If you've moved around a lot, be prepared to offer a good reason for it. Otherwise, you'll need to make a good case for why you want to stick around in the area where the job is located. A company doesn't want to hire someone with wanderlust who still wants to relocate. Be prepared to outline why you are where you are today, how long you intend to stay there, and why. Give specific reasons like ';This county has the best school systems in the entire state, and I have a daughter who might find the cure for cancer'; or ';I was drawn to this area because it's at the cutting edge of innovation for this business and I want to be a part of that.'; The more details, names, and specifics, the better.


    Make a list of work-related skills you'd like to learn. Your employer will be interested in hearing about how you intend to become a better employee. Think about which skills will make you more competent in the position you're applying for. Public speaking, project management, team leading, and computer programs are usually beneficial. Find some books and upcoming conferences that would significantly improve your abilities. In an interview, tell the employer what you're reading and learning, and that you'd like to continue doing so.

    I'm getting a tattoo... I just need some suggestions help/advice?

    This will be my second Tattoo. I'm looking to get the wings of Mercury, on my ankles. And yes there is a lot of meaning to it. I put my tattoo ideas through the gauntlet before getting them. My idea is to get tribal wings with my brothers names on them. I'm really not sure whether I should get... One wing on each ankle? Or maybe just one wing on one ankle? Would wings on my ankles look too feminine? What do you think?I'm getting a tattoo... I just need some suggestions help/advice?
    I think if they were tribal it would be pretty unisex actually.





    Also, this might just be me, but when I see a guy who pushes the boundaries slightly with his tattoos like that, I actually have respect... I wouldn't think 'what a girl' - I'd think more along the lines of 'there's someone who's comfortable with his sexuality!' lol. Okay yes there would be limits... pink stars and fairies might cross the line... but a couple of black wings would be pretty cool I think.





    Obviously go with what you want to, but if it was me I'd go for one on each. I alway think it's a bit weird when people just have one wing, and I have a major thing with symmetry haha so if I was doing it I'd have one on each outer ankle. Then you could also argue that your brothers lifted you up or something. If for some reason you didn't want to use the other leg though then perhaps one wing on your outer and one on your inner ankle of one leg? But I personally think it would look best one on each outer.I'm getting a tattoo... I just need some suggestions help/advice?
    if you are set on wings, which yes, on an ankle will look fem, just make sure they are masculine wings, and I would say two together, or one with the other folded behind it, one wing on each would look too sparatic, and one on one ankle would look unfinished.





    Just make sure you love what you decide, this is nothing to just settle on you know ;)
    Yeah the wings would look a little fem cause they would have to be small. If you could find a way to make them bigger and kinda go up at an angle that might help.
    i think i would get two wings on one ankle just incase later on in your life you want somethingn on the other ankle. that is a really good idea!+

    I need advice on a touchy subject could someone please help?

    All my dad does is tell at me n my kim n my sister and tell us how stupid we are I feel unimportant and I am begining to wish he was gone I cry every night an I don't know what to do anymore can't go to a friend cuz I have non what should i do I try to make him happy bit it never works?I need advice on a touchy subject could someone please help?
    say...





    hey dad, look. i don't like the way u have been treatin me.k so id appreciate it f u could ease up and be a bit nicer..K...thanksI need advice on a touchy subject could someone please help?
    Tell him how you truly feel on the inside and talk to him in a calm, civilized way. Telling your dad about how you feel might get him to realize what mistake he has made. Although it might feel a little awkward because maybe your anger has built inside and you want to yell at him, try your best not to yell or swear, that will only anger him more and your discussion with him will lead you to nowhere.


    Even if your dad has not been nice to you or your sister, I believe everyone should be given chances, no matter how many mistakes they make. I feel this way because I know how it feels when someone is mad at me and I always want to be forgiven. Remember, everyone makes mistakes





    Good luck and I hope you feel better.
    Hmm, this is a pretty touchy subject. The best thing I can tell you is to try to tell a teacher or someone you trust. This is a pretty important manner and I know how you feel since I've felt this way too.





    As well, remember that you don't have to believe anything anyone says, even your parents. Live life the way you want to live, don't let others boss you around, but be sure to also have some common sense!





    Sorry if this doesn't help as this is a really important manner.
    I understand how you feel. I get this a lot with my mum. I told her how I felt about it in a frank discussion in the end, and it turns out it's a bit of a blind spot for her. She doesn't understand that negatives hurt much more than positives help, so she always thinks that she's being a lot more constructive than she is. She also says she feels it's her responsibility to criticise me, but a lot of what she says makes me very uncomfortable.





    If you don't want to go to a friend, perhaps seeing a counsellor might help. However what I did seems to have worked very well. I've simply accepted that my mum can't help acting like that (and lord knows it's not just me who sees it, because she's driving my brother to distraction). I've had to take a step back from all the fighting and the pain. Every time she has a go at me I just think ';oh, she's at it again,'; and take a step back from the situation. Turn off. Sometimes it's all you can do to defend yourself.
    first off, i'm really sorry. this sucks!





    obv. i'm going to tell you to talk to another adult about it, whether it be your mom or your counselor or someone else you trust





    but always remember that its not your fault. its his own fault for being unhappy, %26amp; there's probably nothing you can do about it unless he like, leaves to get help


    honestly, i'd just try to keep my distance %26amp; focus my energy in other extracirriculars (preferably something that will keep you out of the house)


    also, it helps ALOT to look forward to your future, as nerdy as that sounds. start looking at out of state colleges %26amp; stuff.


    but mainly, do whatever you can to keep yourself happy (watching tv is good bc it preoccupies your brain)





    hope this helps, %26amp; good luck!
    we learned in science that when a parent or another person that is important tells them that they are stupid they start to believe them if you are or not, that isn't right! Then in another class we are reading one of the seven habits books, and it said one thing not to form your life around was parent. My teacher told a story about a guy that had always tried to make his parents happy. He always got good grades. he wanted to become a teacher but his dad said there was no money in that so to make his dad and mom happy he changed careers. He is now a lawyer, but that still didn't make his parents happy. He regrets not having fun in his childhood. I know your father should be an important person in your life. He should be someone to look up to. Someone you can go to for help. Someone you love, someone that helps you, brings you up when you are sad. You could try to make your dad happy or make your self happy, ignore him, Im sure he is wrong. No one is dumb they are either a slow learner or dont do well in some places but god made you for a purpose. You are important! Dont cry because he is the stupid one. I dont care who you are you dont call someone stupid especially your own child! Who could be uncaring enough to do that?





    This is probably not the answer you were looking for but I hope it helped!
    I'm sorry to hear that. If it were me, I would just talk to him about how it makes you guys feel to hear that. Tell him that the things that he says to you makes you all feel very bad about yourself and that you just want to be happy. Still let him know you know that you want him and you to all be happy, and make sure he knows that he really is hurting your feelings.





    Just sit down with him and discuss how you've been feeling and I hope that this will help.





    Good Luck. :)
    I have been in a similar situation and I can help. Verbal abuse is no less damaging than physical abuse. Is your mom in the picture? Maybe you should vent to another grown-up in your family and have them to talk with your father to see what is going on. If nothing changes after this just stay out of his presence, even go stay with another family member until he learns that his children have feeling also.
    Oh my goodness! I fell horrible for you! Really! Do you have a mother? If so, try talking to her and explain the situation. Tell her every little detail and never give up hope. If the situation continues to get worse, maybe consider talking to a school councler and maybe call DYFUS. ( its a thing that keeps kids away from bad ppl. but it would have to be like, a relative i guess. look it up ) now if you have any more questions, plz plz email me at ahattem@yahoo.com





    I may be ten, but i know someone who kinda went thru this too. i hope i helped!
    omg i will be ur friend turn to me when someone dosent appreciate u dont appreciate them keep ur head heald high and don't let him get in your way just ignore him because one day you will be a strong independent person


    as for the friend thing u need to be social and ask some nice people if they want to be ur friends start with the dorky people because they r always nice so just keep ur head held high because ur integrity is all u need
    Either ignore his behavior, or talk to him about it. Or if your old enough you could just leave. He is probably just really stressed out or something. It's nothing you or your sister did, no parent should call their kids stupid. Don't start thinking you are either. Just talk to him, if your to shy then write him a letter I've done that before. :)
    i used to have an abusive stepmom. what you need to do is just stay strong and wait. i kid you not, good things will happen if you just wait. ive waited and now i have a new stepmom, an xbox,ps3 awsome tv, and my life has been really good.i had to put up with her from when i was four, untill i was 12. im 15 now. pray, if you believe in god. what kind of things does he say to you?
    THERE IS NOTHING U CAN DO 2 MAKE HIM HAPPY. HE IS MISERABLE AND TAKING IT OUT ON U. ITS NOT YOUR FAULT THAT HE MISTREATS U ITS HIS. INSTEAD OF TRYING 2 MAKE HIM HAPPY WHICH WONT WORK AND WILL ONLY MAKE U FEEL WORST. WHY DONT U TRY DOING SOMETHING THAT MAKES U HAPPY. WHETHER ITS READING A BOOK,TRYING A NEW RECIPE,LISTENING 2 YOUR FAVORITE SONGS. JUST KNOW THAT U R NOT STUPID, AND THOSE ARE HIS ISSUES AND PROBLEMS THAT HE IS TAKING OUT ON U.
    Ignore him.


    No one is stupid and unimportant and he's a terrible father for telling you and your sister such things. Try to make some friends to help you with this though. Or talk to a school counselor, they may be scary but they are alot of help.
    talk to your mum or even grandma or someone really supporting and trustworthy and maybe take a shot at talking to him about it and how you feel and that you have been crying everynight and get your sister to be there at the same time. =]
    I AM NOT A TRAINED MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL, SIMPLY A MAN OFFERING AN OPINION





    What you need is to talk to someone besides your father, weather it be a psychologist or a school official, an let them help you with your sticky relationship
    You could try to ignore him and do the same to him and find a way to distract yourself from thinking about it.
    you are not unimportant. sit down and tell him how you feel and tell him u cry every night. it will make him sad and then think what he is doing.
    WWHAAAAAAT??????????????
    tell him you love him?

  • I am a lonely 17 who has had his heart riped out and no friends, can some talk or help ADVICE?

    i am kinda shy. but i am real funny, smart(love histort) and a cool guy. how do i get smart funny nice people to talk to me help?I am a lonely 17 who has had his heart riped out and no friends, can some talk or help ADVICE?
    I am kind of shy, much like you. For a few years in middle school I had very few friends. I made some stupid decisions and went through some hard times.





    I made friends by sitting next to someone who I see as a nice person in class. Eventually, we became friends and now we are very close. I am also, now, very close to her friends.





    You don't need to change yourself to get friends, you just need to give yourself the opportunity to have friends. Most of my friends are either older or younger than me because I have difficulty making friends my age.





    I really don't know if any of this helps... Try talking to some nice people. Ask if you can sit with them at lunch, sit next to them in class, etc.I am a lonely 17 who has had his heart riped out and no friends, can some talk or help ADVICE?
    I feel for you dear. Being 17 is a difficult time. Just go up to these people and start talking to them.


    I bet if you take something in school like drama, public speaking, or join some other forms of activities in your school you will be able to be around the people you admire.


    Also, don't be down on your self...you sound like a guy that is very good to know. If no one can see that now...they will.


    Take care.





    Folks on the colorguard were jealous of you. Dear, just continue being you. High School is a place where the mean people are mean and the nice guys end up making something of themselves and become successful.
    Be yourself.


    Like yourself.


    Screw everyone else.





    Once people get to know you (give it time) they'll see what a great guy you are. Real friendships aren't built in a day, and you have a long road ahead of you. Are you in any kind of activities or groups, or anything involving your interests? If you join such things - you will find more people you have things in common with and that may slow down and take the time to get to know you. Common ground is a great place to start for ANY relationship.
    You have to just do it, if you don't open up soon, you'll likely become more lonely
    just open up to people

    Please help. Need advice on leech removal and disposal?

    I have a new furry little friend (we'll call him Ernie). I am quite fond of Ernie but the problem is he has 2 leeches (we'll call one Briley and the other Goddess) attached to him that I can't figure out how to get rid of. I don't want to get rid of Ernie or trade him for a new friend but these 2 leeches are getting in the way. What is the most effective and painful method of getting rid of leeches?Please help. Need advice on leech removal and disposal?
    WHAT?? Goddess is married?? well now, this changes absolutely nothingPlease help. Need advice on leech removal and disposal?
    Never poison or burn a leech they will vomit and that poison will enter the bloodstream of the host.





    The correct method is to peel them off with a knife from the mouth. Thus prevent them contaminating the blood.





    However in the case of Goddess just tell her Ernie hates the Saints (Football team). This will cause a split that will allow you to get the knife in and peel her off.





    _()_
    Surprise attacks always work best in this case. You go at Ernie with both hands of course and proceed to grab those 2 leeches and pull them off slowly. Once you've removed them from the source, you should keep them in a glass jar on your shelf for future reference in how the leech works. You might also score some tips from them.
    First, you have to eat a furry fish taco, a really spicy one. Then spray your FFT breath all over the ';leeches';. One of two things will happen. They will either shrivel up and die. Or they will get really turned on. If the second happens, you have a whole new problem on your hands.
    First, it's a lot more likely that you're dealing with ticks


    rather than leeches.


    For either, get some matches. Burn one, blow it out and expose the parasite's rear to the hot head. (It may take more than one per parasite.)


    Usually they will withdraw and let go.


    Then brush them off and squash them.
    Obviously, start a rumor that the leeches have herpes. Apple herpes and Turtle herpes, the two most virulent strains.





    Then you can reassure ';Ernie'; that you always practice safe sex by using a rubber...ducky.
    Thar thar, ye wench of lore. Leeches be a good thing ta have, good fer cleansin' thee body and purifyin' thee soul.

    Why doesn't he want to be alone with me? I just want to kiss him.[long story.please help! Advice!] =)

    I've had a crush on him since i met him in the beginning of summer...Everyone could tell he was attracted to me..He's tried to kiss me like 3 times but I always got shy and pushed him away. On one of those nights, i told him i had a crush on him and then I let him kiss me.after that, i went on a trip and he asked my sister about me and she said i didn't mean anything i said or did that night.but he still came to my house when i got back to say happy birthday to me.i hadnt seen him for about a month since then bc after that, he got a dui after a frat hazing.he's also really dorky and probably thought i wasnt interested so i made the first move by inviting him over to watch a movie at my house and he said yes.i asked him for friday but he was busy so he asked me out to the movies monday night (he's friends with my brother and asked him if it was ok to take me to the movies) but on the ';date'; he brought his brother and his gf..which i thought was weird. It didnt seem like a date and he didnt try to make a move but we had a great time tho and talked a lot and by the end of the night he said we should hang out again soon (he seemed kinda nervous, during the movie his leg kept bouncing and when he spoke to me he got really close to my face). The other night he asked my brother if he could come over our house to hang out but my brother didnt want to pick him up. so i texted him a week ago about hanging out one friday and he seemed excited about it..so i texted him again yesterday to see if he was busy tomorrow night and he said he couldnt come cuz he had work..but said we should do it another day of the week for sure...the weird thing is...he told me to invite 2 other friends too...why? I wanted to be alone with him. (I'm 18, he's 20 by the way and im leaving for NYU aug 24) I'm just really confused lol what should i do? i dont want to seem pushy and keep bothering him but he's obviously not getting the idea (i just want to make out with him..thats it..nothing serious since im leaving anyway)..any advice would be great! =)Why doesn't he want to be alone with me? I just want to kiss him.[long story.please help! Advice!] =)
    jump on him. if he has tryed to kiss you then that means he wants to kiss you alot!! so just go out with him one night and let it happen. or you can start it. just dont let yourself stop it. you said you want it. so let it happen...Why doesn't he want to be alone with me? I just want to kiss him.[long story.please help! Advice!] =)
    kiss him embrace him in perfect chance
    he might know what you are trying to do...only make out with him. it seems like he doenst want the same thing. he might want a serious relationship and doesnt want to end up getting hurt. he wants you to bring friends so that it will be harder for you to kiss him. he wants to take things slow. but you need to tell him that you arent looking for a serious realationship that you only want to mess around.good luck


    Answer mine!


    http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;鈥?/a>
    Well, first... he had a dui so that is clue number one he is not the one to go after. But if you persue him then find a place and time he would not feel nervous being around you.. Sounds like he likes you, but he can't pik you up for dates, etc. and may be embarrased about it. Just go with the flow and see what happens. Maybe you can get together before you leave town and see what happens. Plus if you are heading to school, you will meet so many more ppl there so maybe you need to let this one go...
    there is no way you are 18 talking about pre-teen stuff like this. lol





    just flat out be like, no, i just want to hang out with you. Just you and me.





    and if he is 20, why can't he drive himself to your house?

    What is some advice you can provide to help other students avoid plagiarism?

    All students get ideas from their sources. I think the best advice is to ask the students to ';steal'; the ideas, but not the expression of the ideas. It gets them trying to understand the material (which is the point anyway).





    Oh, and of course, they should cite the sources.What is some advice you can provide to help other students avoid plagiarism?
    No matter what always be using words that are put together by your mind. Quotes are called quotes for a reason.What is some advice you can provide to help other students avoid plagiarism?
    u can ask them to bring a copy of the sources they used,whether it was from a book or magazine or any other sources,may they write the source as well as bring a copy of it.


    i know it may be illogical,because the sources may be more then 50 pages sometimes but my instructors used to do this.
    Tell the students ';originality takes you into life beyond university';.
    Use your own brain instead.
    tell them to use the source for getting ideas in other words they have to use thier on brain but can use other people work as a guide. by plagiat other people work doesn't make themself move forward just stay still at the same old spot.

    People In Business:I need expert advice on how to get funding to start up my business, can anyone help me?

    This idea is so big but I don't want to unleash it all over the web for someone to steal it. I need corporations help.People In Business:I need expert advice on how to get funding to start up my business, can anyone help me?
    If you need corporations help, then you'll do best by making your business a corporation itself.


    You can get funding by incorparating.


    What you do is sell parts of your company, sell stocks, this will give you funds to start your business, %26amp; you can do it when your business is fairly new too.





    You should look into grants, and loans too.





    however my best advice is for you to start as small as you can and grow your business as you move on and get more funding and expierence.





    Most of all MAKE A BUSINESS PLAN!


    Banks WILL not loan you money if you do not have a Biz Plan, and have 1/3 of what you need to open you biz too.





    Good luck!


    (I can't stand corporations, i will never incorporate)People In Business:I need expert advice on how to get funding to start up my business, can anyone help me?
    How can we help without details?


    Banks require a business plan and a personal guarantee


    Relatives and friends may be a source


    Selling stock in the new company will still need a business plan but your interest will be diluted.
    Always try to maintain a very good bank account and have a good rapo with the bank... and always try to have control over the workers and never give up at any stage of life...

  • I having boy trouble and i need some advice !!!! HELP ME PLEASE?

    okay every time i a have i boyfriend i always be the one that falling in love first and i don't know why i guess because i am a loving person and i just love being i love what should i do i need advice please help me pleaseI having boy trouble and i need some advice !!!! HELP ME PLEASE?
    Dont take this the wrong way but you might be in love with the idea of love. I did it before when I was younger. You just think you love the person when really you hvae no idea of what you really want. You just have to learn to just date to find someone and not really think about if you love them or not, think about what you like most about them, and what you dont like. Then let it go for a couple months and see if you still feel the same way...just take it slow. I dont know how young you are but you have time no matter how old you are. When you find the one you will know, and it will happen dont rush things.I having boy trouble and i need some advice !!!! HELP ME PLEASE?
    I have only been in love twice in my life although when I was younger I thought I was so many more times than that. When you are a teenage girl every emotion is so intense that it is so hard to know the difference between actually being IN LOVE and having a very strong liking for someone. The best thing that you can do is learn from all of your experiences and try to understand your emotions better so you can control them.
    Well that sounds like one of my friends. Like a couple people said. Maybe your in love for the wrong reasons. I mean don't take that to heart or anything. And maybe it's not really love, maybe you just like the idea of being in love. Do you get what i mean haha. Well.. maybe you should just TRY and take it slow with boys. =]





    -M
    When your really in Love you'll know. Just date and have fun. You don't have to be worrying about love. Don't look for it, let love find and come to you.
    well im the sane way so you need to find someone who falls in love at the same rate as you

    32 weeks and freaking out...i need some advice/help..?

    ok everytime the baby kicks it hurts, I have had a horrible headache all day, I have a bowel movement everytime I eat, shooting pain down my leg, and close to my rib on my left side I've had a pain that hasn't gone away even if you barely touch it. Anyways I obviously can't call my doctor at this time an tomarrow she won't be in the office...so has anyone gone through this? This is my first so I know pretty much nothing!32 weeks and freaking out...i need some advice/help..?
    It sounds *to me* like your hormones and body is just all out of whack right now, which is completely normal. You are going to go through really crazy different things while you are pregnant, so try not to freak out about it. Just remain calm and if you get too concerned, go ahead and call your doctor. They should have overnight on call people to help you as well.32 weeks and freaking out...i need some advice/help..?
    It's totally normal, your body is just getting you ready for labor, and at least you have bowel movements I'm 38 weeks and 4 days and I have a bowel movement every second day it sucks, and you probably just have a really strong baby and the baby is probably just kicking you in the ribs, don't worry you only have 8 weeks to go and the pains are only going to get worse, so just suck it up. I have to. good luck

    good luck!Please help me! I need to drop my waist line from 42'' to 39'' 2 weeks. Im joining the military, i need advice?
    Cut out all salt and sugar from your diet. Try and eat unprocessed food, semi-skimmed milk and cut back on portion sizes. Eat plenty of fruit and fresh veg. Do sit-ups 3 times a day (the sit-up and twist kind) this should get you waist muscles into shape. Cut out alcohol if you drink. Take plenty of exercise, swimming, cycling, jogging and/or football and hopefully you will lose 3'; from your waist. Good Luck.
    don't eat.
    Go very low-carb and limit your overall calories as well. I recommend having a lot of salads with romaine lettuce and grilled chicken and low-carb dressings. Try to limit your consumption a lot the day before your physical, but get a fair amount of protein, and try to schedule it earlier in the day. Just have water that morning so you can run, etc. You'll pull it off.
    First of all, Quit drinking soda pop, even diet soda pop. Start drinking water. For Breakfast, eat a bowl of Special K or Cheerios, with Skim Milk. For Lunch, eat a turkey sandwich on wheat bread with Mustard or Fat Free Mayo. For Dinner, eat some type of Lean Meat, a salad, and a slice of Wheat Bread. Between meals, and in the evening, if you get hungry, eat some dry cereal like Cheerios or Special K and/or drink water.
    I dont know if thats possible. But try doing cardio a few times a week. 15 second sprints, 20 second rest (8-10 times). 1 minute fast running, 1 minute rest (3-5 times). and 2 minute fast jump rope, 30 second rest (5-7 times). Eat alot of protein, vegetables, fruits. Jog in-between caridio days. Good luck
    Zero carb diet, plus lots of water. Although, 2 weeks is pushing it.

    My son is a victim of identity theft, is there any help,advice ??

    I am very sorry that your son is in the situation he is now in. Unfortunately, once your identity has been stolen it is stolen for the rest of his life. Unless he takes appropriate action, this WILL happen to him again and again.





    First, your son needs to file a police report. This report needs to detail ALL of the accounts on your son's credit report that are fraudulent (be advised that some local jurisdictions will not go into that much detail).





    Next, your son needs to enter the long and tedious process of recovery. He can either embark upon this mission himself or he can hire a professional to do it for him. If he does it himself, he needs to be prepared to spend an average of 600 hours repairing the damage. I don't say this to scare you or him into using a professional, just to let you know what kind of effort this is going to take.





    Things he will need to do is dispute ALL fraudulent information with the credit bureaus. This will take up the majority of the 600 hours as the credit bureaus are reluctant to help as it costs them money to do so. (Ironically, he can HIRE the credit bureaus to do what they are reluctant to do for free. They will be more than happy to take two or three thousand of his dollars to fix this for him.)





    He will need to notify ALL creditors with whom he is currently involved that he is a victim of identity theft. Credit cards will have to be changed, pin numbers, account information and the whole nine yards.





    Then he needs to work with ChexSystems. This company has a very bad reputation and that reputation is justified. However, if he wants to make sure that his checking information is safe, he will have to jump through their hoops as well. They will not make the process easy for him.





    I really hope that he then considers signing up with an identity theft protection company after all this is done. If he wants to use that type of service, there are several good ones available. Keep in mind that he does not want to go with companies that use gimmiks to lure customers. Million dollar guarantees are easy to offer when you know you will NEVER have to pay out on one because the client will NEVER qualify for the guarantee, even if the identity is stolen again.





    If you have any further questions regarding this issue, please feel free to contact me at nebula7693@yahoo.comMy son is a victim of identity theft, is there any help,advice ??
    Unfortunately, your son will be spending hours upon hours trying to get this mess cleaned up so the only advice I have is to stay strong and just work your way through it. Also, please check the link below. Zander Insurance has a GREAT identity theft protection program that I strongly recommend. They won't be able to help with this current situation (since you're already in the middle of it), BUT if this ever happens again, Zander Insurance will assign a counselor to spend the hours and hours on the phones dealing with the creditors. When someones identity is stolen, time spent cleaning the mess is the worst thing you deal with. I'm not a representative of Zander Insurance, just a happy customer and I thought I'd share them with you.My son is a victim of identity theft, is there any help,advice ??
    First you need to contact the police and be sure to file a report. Then contact the credit bureaus, contact your local bank for that information and make sure to put a fraud alert on his credit and inform them that he has been a victim of identity theft.





    You need to find out where this land is, and where the judgement against him is (county, state, city). Contact your local district attorney and the district attorney for where this judgement is placed and then explain the situation. You will need to contact the place where this land is titled with, possibly the county courthouse for that area could help and see who is claiming to own this land. That will tell you a lot. Maybe, if someone's name is on that you might have a link to it. Property ownership is all public information, so you should have no problem with that. Also check to see if there are taxes owed on this property.





    Best of luck, tell him to stay tough. You may also consider contacting your state attorney generals office, they should have a lot for you in guidance.
    File a police report a.s.a.p. The link below also has some great information on other steps to take:





    http://www.consumeraction.gov/caw_identi鈥?/a>





    Check with his/your insurance agent to see if you have an services available through them.





    Sorry about the difficulty. Hopefully, you can minimize the damage by taking immediate action.





    Good luck.
    Order all 3 of his credit reports and asses how much damage there is. Then dispute and report the fraud.
    Contact the police to report it.

    I am about to enter high school and I was wondering if anyone had any good advice that will help me survive it

    I am gonna be a freshman and I have some what of an idea of what to expect, but I have no idea how I can stand the next four years, which include dealing with my ex-boyfriend and an evil gym teacher among other things. So good advice will be appreciated. Thanks.I am about to enter high school and I was wondering if anyone had any good advice that will help me survive it
    Freshman year isn't that bad at all. You'll be fine with your ex-boyfriend. You'll meet TONS of new people and you won't have to ';deal'; with him for the next four years. Four years is a long time, but it'll go by quicker than you can imagine. Your exboyfriend will a minor problem you'll face...not saying you'll face a lot worse, but things happen- bad and good.





    Your gym teacher will probably only be a trouble for you for that year and honestly, you won't have to deal with him/her anymore. Maybe you won't even have them as a gym teacher. But if you do, they'll be other kids in the class that will have to deal with them with you. Don't be shy because no one will remember ';the time you slipped and fell'; or ';the time you were the slowest runner during laps'; in a couple of years.





    Basically, don't stress and things will be a lot easier. Make many friends, study hard, get into new things, take the good with the bad, and learn from mistakes.I am about to enter high school and I was wondering if anyone had any good advice that will help me survive it
    don't worry about what other people say or do, because most people are stupid anyway (especially high-schoolers).

    Eat a lot!!!!! haha Damn you are so lucky! I wish i could eat and not gain a pound! Well there is also Vitamins u can take that can help you gain weight. Look out for them! I'm sure they will help you gain some weight.
    Personally, I would suggest that you up your calorie intake AND work out, 20 minute run and some push ups and crunches. This way you will gain some muscle mass, not fat... which is grosser then being deathly skinny.

  • Needing some work out advice.. help?

    I'm about 5'8, 147 pounds. I have a flat midsection but I want to tone it up, it's a little fatty. I also have some love handles going on. And basically i'd like to tone up my whole body. Could anyone recommend a workout video and work outs that might help me get toned up? I'd like to get toned up before around May/June. I've searched for trainers and what not but where i'm from, it's seemingly impossible. lol. Any advice??Needing some work out advice.. help?
    I don't think you really need to burn much fat at 5'8'', 147 pounds, so I'd suggest just doing some callisthenics. High rep, full crunches will help tone your stomach. Pushups for your triceps, some lightweight curls if you want for biceps.





    Do all weights in sets of 10 - 15 reps. Do maybe 20 crunches at a time. Adjust if it's too easy or too hard.

    Need some advice on picking an evidence based theory for my social work paper! Please Help!?

    Hi, I'm trying to think of a traditional theory and an alternative theory for a paper that I need to write for my social work class. In the past I wrote papers about infant abandonment and prescription drug abuse. The theories that I choose for this essay have to relate to the problem of the client that I use for the paper. The kind of people I am considering to be that client have problems that are related to single parenthood, learning disabilities, and anger management. Any advice or ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanx!Need some advice on picking an evidence based theory for my social work paper! Please Help!?
    tradition said that it is because of the way they were brought up in a bad home their selves.alternative theory is that it is hereditary genetics that make these things exist.

    Looking for advice to help me choose the right PhD program...?

    I have a BA in international relations, a EdM in international education development, and have been teaching ESL for 5 + years. I am looking for a PhD that marries linguistics, English language acquisition, and immigration related policy. Career-wise, I'd like to do reasearch and teach. Many people have steered me towards education, but I don't want to teach education. I'd rather teach something more akin to International studies or TESOL. I have found a great linguistics program in London. I am a US citizen and will probably teach mostly in the US, so I am not sure a PhD from the UK would be the best choice. Also, it looks like for a UK PhD, one goes right into research, and while on one hand I don't want to take two years of classes, I think that I would benefit from taking some more, especially in research.





    What do you recommend? Do you know of good applied or sociolinguistics programs in the US? Thank you.Looking for advice to help me choose the right PhD program...?
    A good route is to look for research in the area that you want to study. In the articles and books that you find most intriguing, check the university affiliations of the authors of that research, and look at doctoral program requirements and course offerings. If the program appeals to you, send a query to the graduate advisor about the application process and your preferred area of study. You should mention that you have read the work of a faculty member and would like to study with that person. During your doctoral program your committee will steer you in an appropriate career direction.
