I already know that a high fiber, low sodium, and low fat diet lowers your blood pressure. DUH. What I can't seem to find is the reasons these things are true. I'm writing a paper on blood pressure and I've found so many great sources, but not one of them tells me the actual physiological reasons that this type of diet lowers blood pressure. If anyone could point me to some sources on this I would really appreciate it. Any doctors out there??? : )

I am dating a guy I really like. For about 3 months. It is now getting to the point that I am curious about where our relationship is headed. I don't want him to think that I'm trying to pressure him so I decided that I will tell him this:

I’m happy with you, and I want to deep dating…but the future’s important to me so let’s see how we feel about things over the next few weeks and we’ll decide where this is going and to continue if there’s something more serious that we’re both interested in and want.

What do you think? Does this sound like a pressure free way to get him thinking about what type of relationship he wants to have with me without sounding like a nag or seeming as if I'm trying to pressure him?

Men what do you think? HOnestly! How would you take it if a woman you were dating told you that? Ladies is my approach non-threatening?

Take hold the Quran and fix your books of before you will see there is great meaning and understanding in the scripture you use, and its near every word is in the Quran either in full plain sight or hidden deep in the meaning.

Next month I need to get across London to meet my brother who will be driving along the M25 west and north sector between J12 (M3) and J27 (M11).

Is there an underground station or overline station with frequent service within a few miles of an M25 junction in this sector?

Tony has put contract talks with Gibbs on hold until after the season. Gibbs said months ago that getting Tony's contract renewed was top priority and has recently repeated that during the Toyota announcement adding that he wanted a fast resolution. I don't know which way it will go but I think Tony isn't happy with the Toyota move.

It's interesting. Here in the US, we are so victorian and prudish in our views of the human body. After spending 4 days in Brazil, & visiting a nude beach, I don't see why people are so hung up on nudity. Granted, certain people should probably not play vollyball in the nude, but hey, that's a given....

With the unending differences continuing between leftists and the UPA particularly the congress party on the nuclear issue the days of Govt. of Manmohan Singh appear to be numbered. Can the readers predict as to how long will this Govt. last ? Do the readers agree that it may be a month or two and probably before the begining of next session of parliament the Govt. will fall ?

Scenario # 2: As a single (no dependents) will you pay more tax if you dont take certificate course?

Please reply. Your time and help is greatly appriciated!

I was looking into sailing lessons and was thinking of a Vanguard 15 or something similar. My question is about use.. How far can you really go in a boat this small? Up and down the coast? Also, can you use a small (2 hp) portable engine on something like this? Is it common or not?

I need to get new anti-virus software for my laptop. I'm running XP Home with a 20G hard drive. I also have an external hard drive so I don't keep excess pictures and files on the laptop. I was recommended AVG by a friend of a friend, but some of the reviews I've read have said it's not very user friendly. I've always used Norton but have read that it really slows the computer down. I also saw that Bit Defender has good reviews, but I'm just not sure if it offers as much protection as Norton Internet Security. If I go with Norton, which I might because that's what I'm familiar with, then it would be Internet Security, not just the Anti-Virus program. Another thing I'm trying to keep in mind is price, of course. Norton only offers one year whereas some of the others come with 2 year subscriptions. Thanks!

Last week after the Bungles happen to beat the Ravens all everyone kept saying was how the Bengal are "an elite team" this year. So my question is.... If they are such and elite team then why is it that they just got beat like a drum by arguable the worst team in the AFC north?

I used to be able to wear high heels all day when I was at school, and these days even if I wanted to my feet just end up in agony after a few hours! How can I wear them again? I've tried using these gel pad things but they don't help, and the height of the heel and whether it's a shoe or a boot doesn't matter!

Please help, I'm forever doomed to flats (which aren't very "me") and trainers which are hard to make look tidy!

Thanks
