Ok, I'm a guy on a 1500 max calorie a day diet (recommended by my doctor to lose weight - I hate my stomach), I do resistance bands and sit-ups/push-ups/jump rope 3 days a week (progress was SLOW so far - nearing 2 months in now, overall), and recently started taking Lipo-6 and GNC's multi-vitamin. Now I am thinking of buying an elliptical machine from Wal-Mart. My current goal is to lose around 60 pounds in the next year or sooner (currently about 5'11" and 220 pounds), and get a body more like, say, Tobey Maguire in Spiderman when he first wakes up at home after being bitten (seen that flick?). Brad Pitt in Fight Club can come later! So, are there any suggestions to add to or modify this plan so that I am not disappointed by the time of my one-year deadline (I don't like going to our local gym very much either)? I'm also kinda pale and get sunburned very easily, so how in the world do I also get a tan without that fake crap that you rub on that turns you orange? Thanks!!!

Im tired of turning on the news and everyone acting like rap music is the reason for everything bad in our society. Ok it might have a small influence but its not the reason a guy shoots up a college or calls a womens basketball team nappy head hoes. When i listen to rap and i hear the word ***** or hoe i dont think he is talkin to all women i just think he is talking to the ***** he is talkin to male or female. The fact of the matter is society is **** up with or with out rap

Why do people want to look "sexy" when it means...
naughty, provocative, provoking, purple, racy, risqué, salty, seductive, sensual, sensuous, shady, slinky*, spicy*, steamy*, suggestive, titillating, voluptuous?

Wouldn't you rather be beautiful which means....
admirable, alluring, angelic, appealing, beauteous, bewitching, charming, classy, comely, cute, dazzling, delicate, delightful, divine, elegant, enticing, excellent, exquisite, fair, fascinating, fine, good-looking, gorgeous, graceful, grand, handsome, ideal, lovely, magnificent, marvelous, nice, pleasing, pretty, pulchritudinous, radiant, ravishing, refined, resplendent, shapely, sightly, splendid, statuesque, stunning, sublime, superb, symmetrical, taking, well-formed, wonderful?

We live in a world today that honestly is going down the tubes. I really don't want to look "racy" as compared to "stunning"....

Am I just crazy? I'd like to hear both sides of the story please!

...and that he/she is getting rid of the whole death thing and that everyone is now immortal from now on, how would you feel?

Or how about if you were the last to die before this happened, knowing that you'll never see family/loved ones again?

Let's do a thought experiment. Suppose you have two objects a few feet up from the ground, and they're casting shadows. When you move to merge these two objects, their shadows will suddenly "suck" together, just like water droplets will - their edges will meet, and suddenly the edges will expand. In effect, it looks like the shadows are fluid, merging together more than they visually should.

Can anyone explain this? I've been puzzling over this problem for a while, and it's really starting to bother me.

Thanks!

For those of you who are good about consistently exercising and eating very well, what inspires you to keep it up? I already have my own reasons, but I just thought it would be fun to hear some of yours =). I know something has to, because I can't be the only one that needs to constantly remind myself why Im doing it, haha.
