I am curious about this (obnoxious and weird )guy next door to me who think of himself as a sexy guy and has a weird shape head, kind of big but non extremely, and like a watermelon shape; plus, he is bold only in the upper part of his head because at the sides he had a lot of hair and the bold part area is always shining.
I felt sorry for him because that feature is totally unatractive I guess to many woman besides me of course.
SoI had curiosity to find out if that is normal or perhaps he was born with some deformation.
I hope somebody can referme a site to find out more about this question

i have noticed on this answers that anyone who is disabled or asks advice for a disabled friend. relative etc,etc, there are nasty replies, why? at the end of the day it is not no ones fault about being disabled and i think people should keep rude comments to themselves as it easily offends.

I recently changed from using the birth control patch to a low dose pill. I have been on the pill for a week and a half now and I feel bloated and have very light spotting. Could this mean my pill dosage is too low?

last about 3 weeks, no longer. If the bursa acts as a cushion between the muscle and the tendon, what happens if surgery is performed to remove the bursa when "all else fails"?

If you are having thought about not staying pure until marriage. Then ask yourself this->
1. Why would I want to give up something that I will never get back to someone that I might not stay with for the rest of my life?
2. Why would I want to be seen as impure in the eyes of god and other people?
3. Why would I want to degrade myself to the level of another person who did not think about the consequences that it would have on them emotionally and physically?
4. Why would I take the risk of getting a STD or get pregnant?

She's 74 and feels fine with no symptoms and is going back for more blood tests. Will get the details from my dad. I'm an optimist but not like what I'm reading already. Is it possible to live with this without Chemo or drugs? Just learning what to expect. thanks

I don't know what to do, or what it is. I'm not with him right now, cause I'm on a business trip... but we were talking online, on aim voice chat, and he was in tears because he had such a bad headache... and then he went silent. I could hear him breathing, but that's it. then he came back, asking what had happened... then hung up. he's going to call his parents, who live in the area...

do you have any idea what could have caused this? it happened right after he'd jerked off, and it's happened before... but I have no idea what could be causing this.

Through which mechanism does insulin affect food intake?

a. It enables the intestines to digest certain types of protein that they would not otherwise be able to digest.
b. It increases the percentage of each meal that is stored as fats.
c. It increases the sensitivity of the taste buds to sugars.
d. It increases the preference for salty foods.

I chose answer B. because if you eat too much, your body converts excess blood glucose into fats and other stored fuels. The flow of glucose from the blood into cells depends on insulin, a hormone released by the pancreas. Insulin helps to move excess nutrients out of the blood and into the liver or fat cells.
- I am not sure if the answer is A. or B. because A seems possible also. I really need help on this one! It was confusing.

I am 18 and on birth control.
I smoke maybe 1, sometimes 2 cigarettes a day.
I often go many days without smoking any at all.
Many times I only take hits of other people's ciggarettes.
How much do you think this will interfere with my birth control.

And yes I know smoking is bad no matter what.
But that isn't my question so please do not preach your 'do not smoke' campaigns to me.
The fact is: i already do occasionally.
I have been smoking on and off for a year or so, and I have never been a heavy smoker, so do not tell me "one will lead to more".
Please only answer the question if you have valuable information.
Thank you :]

iknow i'm not taking a healthy approach, but the weight i've gained from starting college has made me REALLY upset, and i just want to lose it. i'm eating maybe 600 calories a day. i eat a small bowl of salad with fat free dressing, coffee with skim milk and sweet'n low, and for dinner two plain eggs with a whole grain english muffin(100cal and 2 grams fiber). i exersize for a half an hour each day and try to drink at least one water bottle a day. this has been my diet plan for a little over a week now and i've only lost five pounds. i feel like i'm barely eating, i'm exersizing, and i'm drinking water, shouldn't i be losing more weight? i desperatly want to lose AT LEAST 10 lb. help :(
