Having a q-tip looking stick inserted into the male reproductive organ to check for a venereal disease is a part of labratory test. It is then placed on a culture dish.

Yahoo censors don't seem to like this fact, yet they allow a question posted about a woman who wonders why her vagina is wet and with a whiteish discharge after exercising.

They also allow Q & A with the 'N' word. They seem to approve of hateful comments, and comments about the female organs, but they disapprove of medical, factual statements about male problems and experiences.

I would never pay for Yahoo services. It's not even worth it free.

How do people with arthritis get these things open? The paper on the back rips apart when you try to peel it off. There must be an easier way.

My soon to be three year old has never been to a dentist and it's about that time. If someone in MN can reccomend a pleasant dentist in the St Paul or even better in Woodbury, I would be ever greatful. And yes I have searched the web and phone books. But when it comes to my daughter recommendations can be best.
Thanks for any responses.

I was carrying my computer to move it to a different table, but it slipped out of my hands and fell on to the top of my foot. I cant really touch it because of the pain, and it is very slightly bruised and swollen. My sister said it is broken and that i should go and see a doctor, but im not sure what to do as i can still walk on it.

Just wondering. I have it and my husband and I (like a lot of other couples this as our only method of birth control.) Its said to be more effective than a tubal. but what would happen? Would you miscarry?
I've had it for over a year now and never had a period but all of a sudden i am having a pretty heavy period (for me anyways) and just though it was odd.

I've been running at least a mile on a treadmill for a little over a month and I've got pain in my shins. I'm thinking they're shin splits but there's no swelling or anything (for the record, I'm not exactly sure what shin splints are; I've heard so many things from so many people I'm not sure what to believe). Anyway, I rested them over the weekend (helped someone move) and the pain subsided. But now it's Thursday and the pain is back.

What are the best shoes or insoles to buy to help reduce the pain? Any type of pain killer of anything I can do to help this?

P.S. I'm NOT going to stop running. I rest on weekends and that seems to be enough for now,but it's a MUST that I do this so not running, unfortunately, is out of the question.

I have a lot going on right now (just bought a house, gas tank leaking on vehicle, problems with dad, stress at work, stress at hubby's work, etc....), and I've been finding myself going over my problems as soon as I wake up in the morning and getting angry over them. I am usually a very rational person who doesn't anger easily, but with the heap of problems I am dealing with currently my temper has gotten short. I yell at my husband for stupid arguments and constantly find myself becoming angry about my situations (just especially 1st thing in the AM, which is not good). I would love to go to an anger management class but have neither the time nor the $$$. Any relaxation tips? Or books or websites I can check out? I'm pretty sure I don't need meds or anything like that, just better ways to deal with all this stress. Thanks much for reading and for your input.

My sister is DEATHLY afraid of being by herself. We are home alone and she is 12 and I am 13. My mom left for work and my sister came into my room and kept bugging me to go downstairs, so I pushed her out of my room and locked the door. Next thing I knew she was screaming like she was literally being murdered. She was screaming, "Please, Erika! There is someone out here!" She banged on the door so hard and she couldn't catch her breath once I finally let her in. She begged and begged to let her stay in my room, so right now she is laying in my bed. What do I do?

I recently started a mild workout plan to help me lose weight, but I have developed knee pain (both legs) in the last month or so (the therapists at the physical therapy gym I go to say I'm doing the exercises right, so 'form' isn't the problem). My doctor also put me on Cosamin DS and MSM in Nov. '06, when I didn't have any pain, to help "protect" my joints and I've been following the directions. Anyone have any advice for me and my aching knees? Thanks!

Personally I am a runner, so I am not trying to stand up for walkers.

When you run a mile, you burn more calories per min. (obviously) but you are running for half the amount of time.

When it is all said and done, I really believe that running or walking is the same calories PER MILE (I think people think per min. and get confused)

It is a little like what weighs heavier a pound of feathers or a pound of nails.

Any rebuttles?
