Ok, yesterday I found out that my boyfriend has been anorexic for two years, and has been admitted to hospital twice in the past for suicide attempts and serious malnutrition.

Yesterday we went to a party at a friends place, and he ended up wasted, and got violent with people trying to move him outside into the fresh air. (Almost kicking an 8 month pregnant woman in the process)
When he'd calmed down he ended up lying on the floor telling me that he hated himself and I shouldn't love him.

I'm at a complete wits end, because I love him so much and hate to see him hurting so much, at only 16 years of age, he's developed the problems that not even an adult should have to deal with.
But I now accept that he needs professional help, and that there's only so much I can do as a 14 year old girl.
Does anyone have any suggestions of people I could get in touch with to help him, or anyone I could contact for advice or support?

And his parents, quite frankly, are useless. Help?

Hi, I'm an Australian high school physics student currently studying the effects of high energy living upon the environment. As a physics student, I need to prove the steps I've made to reduce my household's carbon footprint with relevant physics equations/support. An example of this would be how reducing a hot water system's overall temperature would result in the saving of energy (q=mcT, reduce T to reduce q). Can anyone provide me with more examples pertaining to reducing household emissions?

I need to come up with my "give me this price and these terms otherwise I'm going to another dealership" figure, but I don't know what exactly a reasonable figure would be. This is my ideal proposal:

-36 mo/12k mile lease
-$0 money down
-Payoff my trade in (Galves values it at $16k, I owe $20k, Ive gotten trade-in offers as high as $18k for it)
-About a $350 a month payment

If I go to the dealership with these figures, will I get laughed out of the place or do you think they'll sign me up right there?

My dad doesn't live my mother anymore, and mum doesn't want us (me and my siblings) going up there to see him because "she's" there and she will try and buy our affection. Mum will only let him come over all he has to do is suggest it and mum will be happy to organize it. Yet he would like us to come and see him. Do I have a right to see him if i wish it? Please be as honest as possible, i really need the help

I simply don't know how to develop these songs. My knowledge of theory/composition is very limited, so obviously that's something I need to work on, but any suggestions would be appreciated. I know for some people, my songs will probably sound very predictable for your seasoned ears :p

people iv shown this to have said that the first song sounds like Copland and the second one sounds like a Grieg piano concerto... I'm not very familiar with any of those composers, but I thought that was interesting...

all of this was recorded using a yamaha keyboard and a cheap mic, so forgive me if the sound is terrible...

anyway, here's the link... myspace.com/montorguel1988

Could you get a period and still be pregnant? Me and my bf are planning to have a baby and we had sex exactly when I was ovulating. Now I am getting some light spotting and wondered if it was my period or implantation bleeding, it just started so Im not sure how long it will last.
Plus can I still take a preg. test now to find out if Im pregnant, how accurate will it be?

Obviously, the numbers are still readable, but would the bar for scanning purposes be damaged by being in soap/water?

I take photos of statues, buildings, shops and general subjects. Sometimes normal candid photos of adults (never children).
The police leave me alone but 'security' oficers can be a problem. What powers do they have? Can they take the camera? If they ask for my name can I ask them for theirs first and the company they work for. I am thinking of having a recorder to record any insident and if they lay a hand on me then have them for asault.
