I am thinking about getting circumcised (I am 27), and I thinking getting circumcised. I am wondering how it would affect my sexual performance and if I would get harder. Would my penis get harder if I got cut?

I have not to bad dirt in my facial pores but noticeable. It is mostly from using facial creams containing a light bronzing agent. I don't want to rip my face up or squeeze them. Any ideas? I heard something about using iodine in a type of recipe that works really well. Any ideas?

What's a good workout that will help me lose some weight- I eat healthy, I just don't know all that much about workouts.
Please specify the routine and how long the workout will take. Also, please be sure I can do this workout AT HOME.
I'll try all the workouts and give 10 points to the one I like the most. Thanks!

Okay, so I'm 15, 5' 4" and I weight 230 pounds. I've tried the Atkins diet, yeah didnt work. I tried doing it on my own and I cheated and couldn't get back into the routine of exercising. At my house I have a manual tredmill, 2 five pound weights, a wheelie, and resistance bands.
I know what to do and what to eat I guess I just need the willpower and motivation. Does anybody have any tips.
This has really been bothering me lately, especially since I started High School. Like everyone I want to be accepted and popular but that's just not gonna happen because of how shallow other people are when it comes to weight.
Also I recently found out that My Father has dieabetes, as well as my mom.
Does anyone have any specific exercises and routines that I could do without having to go to a gym or anything., just usuing my tredmill, wheelie, weights and resistance bands.
Any chat rooms involving people with the same problem would be EXTREMELY helpful.

I am in my late 50's and am a cancer survivor...that's good, I know, but I also have an emotional illness and when I get stressed (and that is quite often) my symptoms erupt. I feel stuck and trapped in the mental health system. If it wasn't for the encouragement of my partner, I'd be lost. I never believed I had a mental problem that I need to keep at bay with pills, but when I don't take them, I relapse and go into hospital where I have been committed too many times to count in my life. I cry a lot...am in radiation treatments for my cancer and do not work cause I am subsidized by government...so me and my partner stay at home a lot...24/7. We don't have a car and the only way I feel socially connected at this time is by phone and computer blogging...other than that, I isolate. It is amazing that my relationship has lasted as long as 15 years, but we work at it...coz we are all we have. He is beginning to find work and I will be alone even more.

I was taking Zoloft and gained about 20 lbs. I recently switched to Prozac hoping to lose weight, and in turn, gained another 8 lbs. I diet as well as work out 5 sometimes 6 times a week. Nothing is working. I am actually starting to get more depressed from the weight gain. I am heavier now, than I've ever been. I use to think I'd rather be fat and happy than skinny and depressed. Not Any More. This is too much. Can anyone give me some positive advice. If I stop taking depression meds will I be able to lose all this weight? Or is there something else I can do?

I have had trouble with the earrings before and the doc said the next time to take the meds and leave them out for a few days. But they will grow over and my ears will have pus in them. Should I leave in the earrings some and take them out some? I dunno what to do and now begin to regret the piercings.

I'm a kinda busy teen...extra curicular and school. But it still seems that a have a bunch time left. I spend way to much time on the computer. Each computer session I have is usually 2 hours. And I usually have 3 internet sessions a day. I tried many times to break the addiction and it worked for a few weeks, but I relasped and I go on the internet everyday. I try to occupy myself with other things but I'm addicted to youtube, yahoo answers, and google. Also when I'm not on the computer I'm usually watching tv or exercsising...usually tv. I really want to elimate computer as a part of my life...but I get all my information on it. Can someone please help me solve this problem for good (not just a temporary answer)? PS I'm introverted but not anti social so I like to things by myself...no matter what experience I have.

For those who went through adult circumcision, how much did you pay for it? I just want to have an idea of the cost.

My mum was diagnosed with Alzheimer's when she was 66. she was in a home when she was 67 and completely taken by the disease 6 months later.

She is now in a wheel chair, in a nappy, spoon fed and totally immobile. she doesn't know anyone any more, there is no recognition or spark of life in her eyes and she is in a vegetative state. She has strokes and fits almost every couple of months. Before this she was a strong health woman.

Why then, if she was to become physically ill would the Hospital/doctor take heroic actions to preserve her "life"

Why do they have to do all things necessary to keep her breathing when there is absolutely NO quality of life for her?? Why can't she be allowed to go in peace?

Before you give me the 'god knows best' answer. How do you know that 'God' isn't taking her and the doctors keep bringing her back? Also I am sceptical as to whether there is a god, and if there is then would he want her to suffer?

I loved my mum very much, I lost my dad 14 years ago and my family is disappearing, however I do not feel that is it necessary to keep resuscitating what is left of her, it is time to let her go in peace.

Finally, the other argument I hear is that doctors do not know whether Alzheimer's patients conciousness is trapped in the shell of the sufferer, therefore they say everything that can be done should be. If you were trapped in a completely immobile body, with no speech or way of communicating, Would You want to live???

My Gran had Alzheimer's, My Mum had Alzheimer's so this is of great concern to me and my sister.
