What should alcohol drink do u recommend?

2012-01-23T05:25:00.000-08:00

ok so I go out every weekend with my girls and i am on a diet. I usually drink beer like modelos or coronas about 4 or 5 bottles sometimes Saturday and Sunday lol but i work out 4 to 5 days a week and i do diet except sat and sun. Do you think the beer will affect my weight loss? Iam thinking of switching to straight shots. Maybe patron shots? idk what do u recommend?

Answer on What should alcohol drink do u recommend?

Stay away from beer if your trying to lose weight that stuff will not help Your waistline at all. Any spirit and soda (not flavoured) would be a better selection, but remember if your trying to lose weight you are better off staying away from alcohol altogether

Can someone give me recipes or mention specific meals that would be beneficial for someone with constipation?

2012-01-23T04:51:00.000-08:00

This is embarrassing to say, but I have been suffering w/ chronic constipation for several years now (since I had my gallbladder removed 7 years ago) and I've noticed some meals / foods make my condition worse such as just about any red meat so I totally cut out red meat from my diet except for the occassional cheese burger, but that's not very often. Does anyone know any meals that would be good for my condition? Please do not say eat more fruits and veggies, drink more water and exercise more yadda yadda yadda. I already know this basic stuff, the problem is I'm trying to actually get some meals / recipes of healthy meals that would be good for my condition. For example I do ok with veggie omelets and a glass of orange juice for breakfast or just whole grain cereal like Mini Wheats for breakfast, but I don't want to eat those same two things for breakfast every day of my life. I need more variety also 4 lunch & dinner. I've got snacks covered w/ the fruit & veggies. Please help

Answer on Can someone give me recipes or mention specific meals that would be beneficial for someone with constipation?

Eat more fish high in Omega 3 oils like salmon and tuna (not canned tuna) and grill it with some veggies! Delish! And you can make it different each time.

Example: Take a salmon steak or fillet, about 3 to 6 ounces, and place on a sheet of aluminum foil, slice some zucchini and fresh green beans and place on top in a pretty manner, put a couple slices or wedges of lime on top too along with a sprig of any fresh herb and a pat of butter, roll up the foil into a packet and bake at 375 for 15 minutes or grill on the barbecue for 15 minutes, slice the top open and devour!

There are many, many recipes you can make up yourself just using things you like but in different combinations!

As far as i'm aware, as your mum is full Italian you should be able to get an Italian passport. That's the way it works for British Passports - as long as one parent has a British passport, children can get one.

Why do people say you have to wait for the right girl to come along?

2012-01-08T18:08:00.000-08:00

Note: This is not personal, just a scenario.

Scenario is hypothetical, not real.

It makes me cringe when people say "Wait for the right one to come along". I would rather go for it and see if it works even though I myself am not in need of any relationships. If you wait, for how long will you have to wait? If you wait, how many women will a man be missing out on? and don't give me that "all you need is one" crap, it's a foreign idea to me. why not have as much fun as you can before you feel like settling down? how about that?

Also this "good things come to those who wait" is probably not as true these days as it was in an era like the 50's. it's different times. get with the program it's the 21st century. things are done differently now.

Picture a guy who actually follows the quotes i mentioned above. if he just sits there waiting for the right girl to come along, he could be the next 40 year old virgin for crying out loud. and it's not because he wants to be a virgin, but because he is sitting there like a wimp waiting for something that will never happen if he doesn't go for it.

that's the message: go for it not "wait until the right girl comes along"

Answer on Why do people say you have to wait for the right girl to come along?

You're right. People always tell me to wait and the right man will come along, but sitting around waiting for a man is wasting your life away. You should be out proactively meeting as many people as possible and forming your opinions on the type of person you want to eventually marry. You can't do that by waiting for the perfect one to just magically show up on your doorstep. Dating is part of the process. It gives you experience, insight, and an idea of what you want in the long term.

If you want something in life, you have to go for it. You have to create your own destiny. Even if some of your endeavors fall flat, that's just part of the learning process. At least it gives you some life experience, as opposed to absolutely no clue about anything.

I want to have a breast enlargement?

2011-12-31T01:45:00.000-08:00

Hi everyone!!!

I have a small saggy chest following weight loss, I am 19 and I would really love to have breast implants as I think that I would feel more confident and be more comfortable in a swimming costume etc. I do not want enormous breast, just something appropriate for my slim frame, so that my bust would be fuller and look better.

Please I would very much appreciate if ladies who have had augmentations/boob jobs could share they're experience with me and give me some advice :)

Thanks for your answers!!!

Kind regards,

A

Answer on I want to have a breast enlargement?

Don't do it. Your implants could burst and make you sick or kill you.

How is latino/Hispanic an ethnicity?

2011-12-07T04:52:00.000-08:00

Latin = Romania, France, Italy, Spain, and Portugal

Latino = Portuguese/Spanish/Italian for "latin."

Hispanic(Hispania) = Latin for "Spain"

Regarding that, why are people from Latin America called "hispanic?" They're not from Spain.

Tell me how a person from Chile shares the same ethnicity as a person from Romania, for being "latino."

Answer on How is latino/Hispanic an ethnicity?

Just one correction. Hispanic means someone from Hispania, that is the same that Iberia, that are Spain, Portugal, Andorra, part of France and Gibraltar (UK).

What are the best weight loss pills that work really work if you eat right and exercise?

2011-09-17T07:27:00.000-07:00

Answer on What are the best weight loss pills that work really work if you eat right and exercise?

Ok, wow, weird story. My mom is overweight and she has...issues with her colon so the idea of taking Alli with her condition was a little worrying for her. So, being the gracious daughter and born guinea pig that I am, I took the pills for 5 days and reported back to her on how I did. I didn't really have any weight I needed to lose but I managed to lose a pound or two anyway.

My mom started on Alli about 3 months ago and she's lost about 30 pounds. Ok, normally, I'd never recommend an over the counter diet pill but the thing is, Alli is just a weaker version of a prescription pill. It's kind of like when Claratin was only available as a prescription and then they releaser Claratin D, a lower dosage, as an over the counter.

There's tons of information about Alli out there, including the horrible "treatment effects" that occur when you cheat on the diet. I should add that my mom lost that weight without exercising. She'd starve herself before she'd get out of that chair. Good luck to you.

Answer on Need info on rome, italy!!?

Rome (Italian and Latin: Roma) is the capital city of Italy and of the Lazio region, as well as the country's largest and most populous comune, with about 2.5 million residents (3.8 million considering the whole urbanised area, as represented by the Province of Rome). It is located in the central-western portion of the Italian peninsula, where the river Aniene joins the Tiber. As one of the largest cities in the European Union, the Comune di Roma has a gross domestic product of €97 billion in the year 2005, equal to 6.7% of Italy's GDP — the highest proportion of GDP produced by any single Italian comune. The current Mayor of Rome is Walter Veltroni.

According to legend, the city of Rome was founded by the twins Romulus and Remus on April 21, 753 BC. Archaeological evidence supports claims that Rome was inhabited since the 8th century BC and earlier.[2] The city was the cradle of Roman civilization that produced the largest and longest-lasting empire of classical antiquity that reached its greatest extent in 117. The city was pivotal and responsible for the spread of Greco-Roman culture that endures to this day. Rome is also identified with Christianity and the Roman Catholic Church and has been the episcopal seat of the Popes since the 1st century. The State of the Vatican City, the sovereign territory of the Holy See and smallest nation in the world, is an enclave of Rome.

Rome, Caput mundi ("capital of the world"), Limen Apostolorum ("threshold of the Apostles"), la citta dei sette colli ("the city of the seven hills") or simply l'Urbe ("the City"),[3] is thoroughly modern and cosmopolitan. As one of the few major European cities that escaped World War II relatively unscathed, central Rome remains essentially Renaissance in character. The Historic Centre of Rome is listed by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site[4] by virtue of its three thousand years of accumulated history and art: a city of the divine and the sublime, of gods, kings, emperors and popes — Citta Eterna — the "Eternal City".
The founding of Rome is shrouded in legend, but current archeological evidence support the theory that Rome grew from pastoral settlements on the Palatine Hill and in the area of the future Roman Forum, coalescing into a city in the 8th century BC. That city developed into the capital of the Roman Kingdom (ruled by a succession of seven kings, according to tradition), Roman Republic (from 510 BC, governed by the Senate), and finally the Roman Empire (from 31 BC, ruled by an Emperor); this success depended on military conquest, commercial predominance, as well as selective assimilation of neighbouring civilizations, most notably the Etruscans and Greeks. Roman dominance expanded over most of Europe and the shores of the Mediterranean sea, while its population surpassed one million inhabitants. For almost a thousand years, Rome was the most politically important, richest and largest city in the Western world, and remained so after the Empire started to decline and was split, even if it ultimately lost its capital status to Milan and then Ravenna, and was surpassed in prestige by the Eastern capital Constantinople.

[edit] Fall of the Empire and rise of the Papacy
After the Sack of Rome (410) by Alaric and the fall of the Western Roman Empire in 476, Rome alternated between Byzantine rule and plundering by Germanic barbarians. Its population declined to a mere 20,000 during the Early Middle Ages, reducing the sprawling city to groups of inhabited buildings interspersed among large areas of ruins and vegetation. With the rise of early Christianity, the Bishop of Rome gained religious as well as political importance, eventually becoming known as the Pope and establishing Rome as the centre of the Catholic Church and capital of the Papal States; the city became a major pilgrimage site during the Middle Ages and the focus of struggles between the Papacy and the Holy Roman Empire started by Charlemagne, who was crowned in Rome on Christmas of 800 by Pope Leo III.

Apart from brief periods as an independent city during the Middle Ages, Rome kept its status of Papal capital and "holy city" for centuries, even when the Pope briefly relocated to Avignon (1309-1337). While no longer politically powerful, as tragically shown by the brutal sack of 1527, the city flourished as a hub of cultural and artistic acitivity during the Renaissance, thanks to the maecenatism of the nepotist Papal court. Population rose again and reached 100,000 during the 17th century, but Rome ultimately lagged behind the rest of the European capitals over the subsequent centuries, being largely busy in the Counter-Reformation process.

[edit] From unification to Fascism
Caught up in the nationalistic turmoils of the 19th century and having twice gained and lost a short-lived independence, Rome became the focus of the hopes for Italian unification, as propelled by the Kingdom of Italy ruled by King Vittorio Emanuele II; after the French protection was lifted in 1870, royal troops stormed the city, and Rome was declared capital of the newly unified Italy in 1871. After a victorious World War I, Rome witnessed the rise to power of Italian fascism guided by Benito Mussolini, who marched on the city in 1922, eventually declared a new Empire and allied Italy with Nazi Germany. This was a period of rapid growth in population, from the 212,000 people at the time of unification to more than 1,000,000, but this trend was halted by World War II, during which Rome was damaged by both Allied forces bombing and Nazi occupation; after the execution of Mussolini and the end of the war, a 1946 referendum abolished the monarchy in favour of the Italian Republic.

[edit] Republican times
Rome grew momentously after the war, as one of the driving forces behind the "Italian economic miracle" of post-war reconstruction and modernisation. It became a fashionable city in the 1950s and early 1960s, the years of "la Dolce Vita" ("the sweet life"), and a new rising trend in population continued till the mid-1980s, when the comune had more than 2,800,000 residents; after that, population started to slowly decline as more residents moved to nearby comuni; this has been attributed to their perceiving a decrease in the quality of life,[citation needed] especially because of the continuously jammed traffic and the worsening pollution it brings about.

[edit] Geography and climate

[edit] Location
Rome is in the Lazio region of central Italy, at the confluence of the Aniene and Tiber (Italian: Tevere) rivers. Although the city centre is about 24 kilometres inland from the Tyrrhenian Sea, the city territory currently extends to the very shore, where the south-western Ostia district is located. The altitude of Rome ranges from 13 metres above sea level (in Piazza del Popolo) to 120 metres above sea level (the peak of Monte Mario).[citation needed] The comune of Rome is one of the largest European capital cities, covering an overall area of about 1,285 square kilometers.[citation needed]

[edit] Climate
Rome enjoys the temperate climate which characterises the Mediterranean coasts of Italy, although the weather has been getting warmer in recent decades. It is at its most comfortable from April through June, and from mid-September to October; in particular, the Roman "ottobrata" (roughly translated as "October period") is famously known for its sunny days and pleasant temperatures. By August, the temperature during the heat of the day often exceeds 35° C (95° F); traditionally, many businesses would close during August, and Romans would abandon the city for holiday resorts, but this trend is weakening, and the city is increasingly remaining fully functional during the whole summer, in response to growing tourism as well as change in the population's work habits. The average high temperature in December is about 13° C (55° F).[5]

[edit] Government and politics

[edit] Capital status
Rome is currently a comune, as well as the seat of the Regione Lazio (one of the twenty regions of Italy) and of the Province of Rome (one of the five provinces of the Lazio region). The current Mayor of Rome is Walter Veltroni, [6] elected in 2001 and again for a second term in 2006. A current political debate in Italy focuses on the opportunity of providing the city with "special powers" of local jurisdiction (the "Roma Capitale" directives), [7] and possibly of turning either the comune or the Province of Rome into a "capital district"[8] separate from the Lazio region, modelled after Washington, D. C..

[edit] Other sovereign states
Rome is unique in its containing two other sovereign states. One is the Holy See, the political and religious entity that governs the territory of the Vatican City (a de facto enclave since 1870, officially recognised as such in 1929), as well as claiming extraterritorial rights over a few other palaces and churches, mostly in the city centre; indeed, Rome hosts foreign embassies to both Italy and the Holy See. The other state is the Sovereign Military Order of Malta (SMOM), which took refuge in Rome in 1834 after having lost Malta to Napoleon in 1798, and thus currently claims no territory (leading to disputes over its actual sovereign status); SMOM too owns extraterritorial palaces in central Rome.

[edit] International involvement
Rome has traditionally been heavily involved in the process of European political integration. In 1957, the city hosted the signing of the treaty of Rome, which established the European Economic Community (predecessor to the current European Union), and also played host to the official signing of the proposed European constitution in July 2004. Rome is also the seat of significant international organisations, such as the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, and is the place where the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court was formulated.

[edit] Culture and society

[edit] Religion
The Religio Romana constituted the major religion of the city in antiquity. However, several other religions and imported mystery cults remained represented within its ever-expanding boundaries, including Judaism, whose presence in the city dates back from the Roman Republic and was sometimes forcibly confined to the Roman Ghetto, as well as Christianity. Despite initial persecutions, by the early 4th century, Christianity had become so widespread that it was legalised in 313 by Emperor Constantine I, and later made official religion of the Roman Empire in 380 by Emperor Theodosius I, allowing it to spread further and eventually wholly replace the declining Religio Romana.

Rome became the pre-eminent Christian city (vis-a-vis Antioch and Alexandria, and later Constantinople and Jerusalem) based on the tradition that Saint Peter and Saint Paul were martyred in the city during the 1st century, coupled with the city's political importance. The Bishop of Rome, later known as the Pope, claimed primacy over all Bishops and therefore all Christians on the basis that he is the successor of Saint Peter, upon whom Jesus built his Church; his prestige has been enhanced since 313 through donations by Roman emperors and patricians, including the Lateran Palace and patriarchal basilicas, as well as the obviously growing influence of the Church over the failing civil imperial authority. Papal authority has been exercised over the centuries with varying degrees of success, at times triggering divisions among Christians, until the present.

With the increasing chaos and disorder leading to the collapse of the Roman Empire in 476, the popes assumed more and more civil authority first in Rome and in the surrounding territories. Rome became the centre of the Catholic Church and the capital city of the Papal States; consequently, a great number of churches, convents and other religious buildings were erected in the city, sometimes above the ruins of older pre-Christian sites of worship. Churches proliferated during the Renaissance, when the most notable churches currently in Rome were built (this includes St. Peter's basilica on the Vatican Hill (the largest church in the world) and the city cathedral of St. John at the Lateran. The Papacy established its residence first in the Lateran Palace, then in the Quirinal Palace. When Rome was annexed by force to the newly unified Kingdom of Italy In 1870, Pope Pius IX retired to the Vatican, proclaiming himself a prisoner of the Savoy monarchy and leading to decades of conflict between the neonate state and the Catholic Church. This was resolved in 1929, when the Lateran Treaties were signed in Rome, establishing the right for the Holy See to govern the Vatican City as an independent, sovereign state. The patron saints of Rome remain Saint Peter and Saint Paul (or, as they are collectively referred to in this context, "the most holy Saints Peter and Paul"), both celebrated on June 29.

In recent years, the Islamic community has grown significantly, in great part due to immigration from North African and Middle Eastern countries into the city. As a consequence of this trend, the comune promoted the building of the largest mosque in Europe, which was designed by architect Paolo Portoghesi and inaugurated on June 21, 1995.

[edit] Language
The original language of Rome was Latin, which evolved during the Middle Ages into Italian. The latter emerged as the confluence of various regional dialects, among which the Tuscan dialect predominated, but the population of Rome also developed its own dialect, the Romanesco. This remained largely confined to Rome until the 19th century, but then expanded into the rest of Lazio from the beginning of the 20th century, thanks to the rising population of Rome and to better transportations systems; as a consequence, Romanesco abandoned its traditional forms to mutate into the dialect currently spoken within the city, which is more similar to standard Italian, although remaining distinct from other Romanesco-influenced local dialects of Lazio. Dialectal literature in the traditional form Romanesco includes the works of such authors as Giuseppe Gioacchino Belli, Trilussa, and Cesare Pascarella. Contemporary Romanesco is mainly represented by popular actors such as Aldo Fabrizi, Alberto Sordi, Nino Manfredi, Gigi Proietti, Enrico Montesano, and Carlo Verdone.

[edit] Immigration and multiculturalism
Since the time of ancient Rome, the city has always been a site for immigration. This once extended to all reaches of the Roman Empire, but was more confined to the rest of Italy in later centuries, as Rome's political power waned. Still, many of its citizens' families originate from outside the city, and the Romanesco phrase Romano de Roma ("Roman from Rome") has been coined to indicate someone who descends from a family that has lived in Rome for at least seven generations,[citation needed] the mark of a "true" Roman.

Over the second half of 20th century, Rome has seen increasing immigration from other countries. There currently is a substantial immigrant population, including a large number of clandestines. The 2005 ISTAT estimations[9] state that 145,000 immigrants live in the comune, or 5.69% of the total comune population. The foreign population in the urban area of Rome consists in 206,000 persons, or 5.37% of the total urban area population. The foreign population in the metropolitan area of Rome is about 248,000 persons or 4.67% of the total metropolitan area population. By far the largest number of immigrants are Eastern European, with the largest numbers of foreigners coming from Romania, The Philippines, Poland, Albania, Peru, Bangladesh, and Ukraine.

Possibly as a consequence of its multiethnic past, the city has reacted with less difficulty to the current waves of immigration into Italy. In particular, Mayor Walter Veltroni has made multiculturalism one of the key points of political program; inhabitants of Rome who are not citizens of a EU country are now entitled to elect their own representatives in the city council, even if they do not hold formal legal residence in Rome.[10]

[edit] Universities
Rome is a nation-wide centre for higher education. Its first university, La Sapienza (founded in 1303), currently is the largest in Europe and the second largest in the World, with more than 150,000 students attending.[citation needed] Two new public universities were founded: Tor Vergata in 1982, and Roma Tre in 1992, although the latter has now become larger than the former. The city also hosts various private universities, such as the LUMSA, the Universita Cattolica del Sacro Cuore (Roman centre), the LUISS, Istituto Europeo di Design the John Cabot University, the IUSM, the American University of Rome, the S. Pio V University of Rome, and the Universita Campus Bio-Medico. Rome is also the location of the John Felice Rome Center, a campus of Loyola University Chicago.

[edit] Music

The main auditorium in the Parco della Musica, designed by Renzo Piano. Rome is an important centre for music. It hosts the Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia (founded in 1585), for which new concert halls were recently built in the new Parco della Musica, one of the largest musical venues in the world. Rome also has an opera house, the Teatro dell'Opera di Roma, as well as several minor musical institutions. The city also played host to the Eurovision Song Contest 1991 and the MTV Europe Music Awards 2004.

[edit] Sports

[edit] Olympics
Rome hosted the 1960 Summer Olympics and is an official candidate to hosting the 2016 Summer Olympics (the latter candidacy was withdrawn in July 2006 due to political difficulties, but was later reinstated).[citation needed]

[edit] Football
Football is the most popular sport in Rome, as in the rest of the country. The Stadio Olimpico is the home stadium for the Italy national football team, and hosted the final game of the 1990 FIFA World Cup; it is also the home stadium for local serie A clubs A. S. Roma and S. S. Lazio, whose rivalry has become a staple of Roman sports culture. Indeed, famous footballers who play for these teams and are also born in the city tend to become especially popular in the city, as has been the case with players such as Bruno Conti and Giuseppe Giannini (both for Rome), Paolo Di Canio and Alessandro Nesta (both for Lazio), and the current Rome captain Francesco Totti. Other notable football teams in the city include serie C2 team A. S. Cisco Roma.

[edit] Rugby
While far from being as popular as football, rugby is gaining wider acceptance. The Stadio Flaminio is the home stadium for the Italy national rugby union team, which has been playing in the Six Nations Championship since 2000, albeit with less than satisfactory performances, as they have never won the championship so far. Rome is home to local rugby teams, such as Unione Rugby Capitolina, Rugby Roma, and S. S. Lazio.

[edit] Other sports
Cycling was immensely popular in the post-WWII period, although its popularity has faded in the last decades; Rome has hosted the final portion of the Giro d'Italia twice, in 1989 and 2000. Every spring, the annual Rome marathon is considered to be the most widely attended sports even in Italy.[citation needed] Rome is also home to many other sport teams, including basketball (Virtus Pallacanestro Roma), handball (S. S. Lazio), volley (male: M. Roma Volley, female: Virtus Roma and Linea Medica Siram Roma), waterpolo (A. S. Roma, S. S. Lazio).

[edit] Economy
Today Rome sports a dynamic and diverse economy with thriving innovation, technologies, communications and service sectors. It produces 6.7% of the national GDP (more than any other city in Italy). Rome grows +4,4% annually and continues to grow at a higher rate than any other city in the rest of the country. Rome's economic growth began to surpass that of its rivals, Naples and Milan, after World War II, although a traditional rivalry persists with Milan. Tourism is inevitably one of Rome's chief industries, with many notable museums including the Vatican Museum, the Borghese Gallery, and the Musei Capitolini. Rome is also the hub of the Italian film industry, thanks to the Cinecitta studios. The city is also a centre for banking as well as electronics and aerospace industries. Many international headquarters, government ministries, conference centres, sports venues and museums are located in Rome's principal business districts: the Esposizione Universale Roma (EUR); the Torrino (further south from the EUR); the Magliana; the Parco de' Medici-Laurentina and the so-called Tiburtina-valley along the ancient Via Tiburtina.

[edit] City layout and sites of interest

[edit] City centre
The historical city centre is dominated by the traditional "Seven hills of Rome": the Capitoline, Palatine, Viminal, Quirinal, Esquiline, Caelian, and Aventine hills. The Tiber flows south through Rome, with the city centre located where the midstream Tiber Island facilitated crossing. Large parts of the ancient city walls remain. The Servian Wall was built twelve years after Gauls' sack of the city in 390 BC; it contained most of the Esquiline and Caelian hills, as well as the whole of the other five. Rome grew out of the Servian Wall, but no more walls were constructed until 270, when Aurelian began building the Aurelian Walls. These were almost twelve miles long, and was still the wall the troops of the Kingdom of Italy had to breach to enter the city in 1870.

[edit] Peripheral layout
The ancient city within the walls covers about four percent of the modern municipality's 582 square miles. The old city is the smallest of Rome's twelve administrative zones. The walled city center is made up of 22 rioni (districts), surrounding it are 35 quartieri urbani (urban sectors), and within the city limits are six large suburbi (suburbs). The comune of Rome located outside the municipal boundaries about doubles the area of the actual city.

The belt Highway known as Grande Raccordo Anulare (G. R.A.) describes a huge circle around the capital, about six miles out from the city centre; unlike most Italian highways, the G. R.A. is toll-free. The circle ties together the antique roads that led to Rome: the Via Flaminia, the Via Aurelia and Via Appia. Large amounts of modern apartment buildings are located in the districts outside the centre, where contemporary architecture has not gone unnoticed. Many street frontages and show windows often change to keep up with the times and the Romans have succeeded in harmonising the old and the new.

Though relatively small, the old city centre contains about 300 hotels and 300 pensioni,[citation needed] over 200 palaces,[citation needed] 900 churches,[citation needed] eight of Rome's major parks, the residence of the President of the Italian Republic, the houses of the Parliament, offices of the city and city government, and many great and well-known monuments. The old city also contains thousands of workshops, offices, bars, and restaurants. Millions of tourists visit Rome annually, making it one of the most touristic cities in the world.

[edit] Vatican City
Main article: Vatican City

Saint Peter's Square. The city of Rome surrounds the Vatican City, the enclave of the Holy See, which is a separate sovereign state. It hosts Saint Peter's Square with the Saint Peter's Basilica. The open space before the basilica was redesigned by Gian Lorenzo Bernini, from 1656 to 1667, under the direction of Pope Alexander VII, as an appropriate forecourt, designed "so that the greatest number of people could see the Pope give his blessing, either from the middle of the facade of the church or from a window in the Vatican Palace" (Norwich 1975 p 175). In Vatican City there are also the prestigious Vatican Library, Vatican Museums with the Sistine Chapel, the Raphael Rooms and other important works of Leonardo Da Vinci, Raphael, Giotto, Botticelli.

[edit] Ancient Rome
Main article: Roman architecture

The Colosseum in RomeOne of the symbols of Rome is the Colosseum, the largest amphitheatre ever built in the Roman Empire. Originally capable of seating 50,000 spectators, it was used for gladiatorial combat. It was built in the 70s and completed in 80. The great complex of the Imperial Forums consist of a series of monumental fora (public squares), constructed in Rome over a period of one and half centuries, between 46 BC and 113. The forums were the heart of the late Roman Republic and of the Roman Empire. The list of the very important monuments of ancient Rome includes the Roman Forum, the Domus Aurea, the Pantheon, the Trajan's Column, the Trajan's Market, the Catacombs of Rome, the Circus Maximus, the Baths of Caracalla, the Arch of Constantine, the Pyramid of Cestius, the Bocca della Verita. Moreover, the archeological site of Ostia preserves intact a whole ancient Roman town.

[edit] Renaissance and Baroque
Main article: Renaissance
Main article: Baroque

Piazza del Campidoglio
Piazza del PopoloRome was a major world center of the Renaissance, and that left a profound mark on the city. The most impressive masterpiece of Renaissance architecture in Rome is the Piazza del Campidoglio by Michelangelo, with the Palazzo Senatorio, seat of the city government. During this period the great aristocratic families of Rome used to build opulent dwellings as the Palazzo del Quirinale, now seat of the President of the Republic, the Palazzo Venezia, the Palazzo Farnese, the Palazzo Barberini, the Palazzo Chigi, now seat of the Prime Minister of Italy, the Palazzo Spada, the Palazzo della Cancelleria, the Villa Farnesina. Rome is also famous for her huge and majestic squares, often adorned with obelisks, many of those built in the XVII century. The principal squares are Piazza del Popolo, Piazza Navona, Piazza di Spagna, Campo de' Fiori, Piazza Esedra, Piazza Venezia, Piazza Farnese, Piazza Minerva. One of the most emblematic examples of the baroque art is the Fontana di Trevi by Gian Lorenzo Bernini. Other notable baroque palaces of XVII century are the Palazzo Madama, now seat of the Italian Senate and the Palazzo Montecitorio, now seat of the Chamber of Deputies of Italy.

[edit] Neoclassicism
Main article: Neoclassicism

Monument of Vittorio Emanuele IIIn 1870, Rome became capital city of the new Kingdom of Italy. And neoclassicism, a building style influenced by architecture during Antiquity, became a predominant style in Roman buildings. In this period many great palaces in neoclassical styles were built to host ministries, embassies and other governing agencies. One of the best-known symbol of Roman neoclassicism is the Monument of Vittorio Emanuele II or "Altar of Fatherland", where the grave of the Unknown Soldier, that represents the 650,000 Italians that fell in World War I, is located.

[edit] Fascist architecture
See also: Aestheticization as propaganda

Palazzo della Civilta ItalianaThe Fascist regime that ruled in Italy between 1922 and 1943 developed an original architectural style, characterized by feast and the research of a link with ancient Rome architecture. The most important fascist style site in Rome is the E. U.R. district, built in 1935. It was originally conceived for the 1942 world exhibition, and was called "E.42" ("Esposizione 42"). However, the world exhibition never took place due to Italy entering the Second World War in 1940. The most representative building of the Fascist style at E. U.R. is the Palazzo della Civilta Italiana (1938-1943), the iconic design of which has been labeled the cubic or Square Colosseum. After World War II, the Roman authorities found that they already had a germ of an off-centre business district that other capitals were still planning (London Docklands and La Defense in Paris). Also the Palazzo della Farnesina, the actual seat of Italian Foreign Ministry, was designed in 1935 in fascist style.

[edit] Villas and gardens

Villa BorgheseThe surroundings of Rome are characterized by numerous and large green areas and opulent ancient villas. The most important are: Villa Borghese, with a large landscape garden in the naturalistic English manner, containing a number of buildings, museums (see Galleria Borghese) and attractions; Villa Doria Pamphili, the largest public landscaped park of Rome with an area of 1.8 km?; Villa Torlonia, a splendid example of Art Nouveau mansion that was the Roman residence of Benito Mussolini; Villa Albani, commissioned by Alessandro Cardinal Albani to house his collection of antiquities and Roman sculpture, which soon filled the casino that faced the Villa down a series of formal parterres.

[edit] Museums and galleries
The list of most important museums and galleries of Rome includes: the National Museum of Rome, the Museum of Roman Civilization, the Villa Giulia National Etruscan Museum, the Capitoline Museums, the Borghese Gallery, the Museum of Castel Sant'Angelo, the National Gallery of Modern Art.

[edit] Administrative subdivision of Rome
Main article: Administrative subdivision of Rome

Map showing the 19 Municipi of Rome. The administrative subdivision of Rome consists of the 19 sub-municipalities (Municipi) of Rome's municipality. Originally, the city was divided into 20 sub-municipalities, but the XIV, what is now the Comune di Fiumicino, voted some years ago to become a full municipality itself and eventually detached from Rome.

The territory of the commune of Rome is divided into 19 Municipi (area subdivisions).[11]

[edit] Infrastructure

[edit] Airports
Rome is currently served by three airports, of which the main two are owned by Aeroporti di Roma. The intercontinental Leonardo Da Vinci International Airport is Italy's chief airport; it is more commonly known as "Fiumicino airport", as it is located within the territory of the nearby comune of Fiumicino, south-west of Rome. The older Giovan Battista Pastine International Airport is a joint civilian and military airport; it is more commonly referred to as "Ciampino Airport", as it is located within Roman territory near the border with the comune of Ciampino, south-east of Rome.

A third airport, the Aeroporto dell'Urbe, is a small, low-traffic airport located about 6 km north of the city centre, which handles most helicopter and private flights. A fourth airport in the eastern part of the city, the Aeroporto di Centocelle (dedicated to Francesco Baracca), is no longer open to flights; it currently hosts the Comando di Squadra Aerea (which coordinates the activities of the Aeronautica Militare Italiana) and the Comando Operative di Vertice Interforze[12] (which coordinates all Italian military activities), although large parts of the airport are currently being redeveloped as a public park.

[edit] Railways

Roma Termini, the largest railway station in Europe. Rome is the hub of the Italian railways.

History of Rome Rail Road

The first rail road built in Rome the Rome and Frascati Rail Road, was opened for service on July 14th, 1856.
On April 16th, 1859 the Rome and Civitavecchia Rail Road was opened for service.
On January 27th, 1862 the Rome and Ceprano Rail Road was opened for service.
On April 28th, 1864 the Rome and Monterotondo Rail Road was opened for service.
Station in the city

Located on the Esquiline Hill, Rome's central station, called Roma Termini, was opened in 1863, then demolished and completely rebuilt between 1939 and 1951; it is currently operated by Grandi Stazioni and mainly served by Trenitalia. In its current form, it is the single largest station in Europe[citation needed] and is visited by 600,000 passengers daily;[citation needed] it has twenty-nine railway platforms, and also serves as a shopping centre and art gallery. The second largest station in the city is Roma Tiburtina, which is currently being redeveloped for high-speed rail service.[13] Other notable stations include Roma Ostiense, Roma Trastevere, Roma Tuscolana, Roma San Pietro, Roma Nomentana and Roma Casilina.

[edit] Urban transportation

[edit] Underground

Map of Rome Metro. A 2-line subway system operates in Rome called the "Metropolitana" or Rome Metro. Construction works for the first branch started in the 1930s. The line had been planned to quickly connect the main train station (Termini) with the newly planned E42 area in the southern suburbs, where the 1942 World Fair was supposed to be held. The event never took place because of war. The area was later partly redesigned and renamed EUR (Esposizione Universale di Roma: Rome Universal Exhibition) in the 1950s to serve as a modern business district. The line was finally opened in 1955 and it is now part of the B Line. The A line opened in 1980 from Ottaviano to Anagnina stations, later extended in stages (1999 - 2000) to Battistini. In the 1990s an extension of the B line was opened from Termini to Rebibbia. A new branch of the B line (B1) is under construction, as is a third line, called C. A fourth line, line D, is under development. The frequent archaeological findings delay underground work. This underground network is generally reliable (although it may become very congested at peak times and during events, especially the A line) as it is relatively short. As of 2005, total length is 38 km. The two existing lines, A & B, only intersect at Roma Termini station.

[edit] Overground

Roman tram in Via Torre ArgentinaThe Rome Metro is part of an extensive transport network made of a tramway network, several suburban and urban lines in and around the city of Rome, plus an "express line" to Fiumicino Airport. Whereas most FS-Regionale lines (Regional State Railways) do provide mostly a suburban service with more than 20 stations scattered throughout the city, the Roma-Lido (starting at Ostiense station), the Roma-Pantano (starting nearby Termini) and the Roma-Nord (starting at Flaminio station) lines offer a metro-like service. There is also an overground rail system with seven lines which link the hinterland of the Roman Area. One of this leads to the second Airport of the city, Ciampino. Rome also has a comprehensive bus and light rail system. The English web site of the ATAC public transportation company allows a route to be calculated using the buses, light rail and subways.[1] The Metrebus integrated fare system allows holders of tickets and integrated passes to travel on all companies vehicles, within the validity time of the ticket purchased.[2]

Chronic congestion caused by cars during the 1970s and 1980s led to the banning of unauthorized traffic from the central part of city during workdays from 6 am to 6 pm. This area is officially called Zona a Traffico Limitato (ZTL). Heavy traffic due to night-life crowds during weekends led in recent years to the creation of other ZTLs in the Trastevere and S. Lorenzo districts during the night, and to experimentation with a new night ZTL also in the city center (plans to create a night ZTL in the Testaccio district as well are underway). In recent years, parking spaces along the streets in wide areas of the city have been converted to pay parking, as new underground parking spread throughout the city. In spite of all these measures, traffic remains an unsolved problem, as in many of the world's cities.

Is eating two slices of whole grain bread every day part of an unhealthy diet?

2011-08-19T06:51:00.000-07:00

I'm trying to lose weight and a peanut butter sandwich on whole grain bread is what I eat for lunch. Is that an unhealthy choice? I know we don't really need bread but I don't know what else to eat for lunch and I've already decided to eat chicken breast and fish for dinner every day with mixed vegetables.

Answer on Is eating two slices of whole grain bread every day part of an unhealthy diet?

It depends on the bread AND the peanut butter you're using. As a vegan I LOVED having this snack all the time for a great protein and energy boost - very filling. Here's the thing: even whole grain bread can be not so good for you - it's carbs, but in a kinder form than the white flour carbs, which, believe it or not, mimic sugar when being taken in the body (yikes, huh!) The heartier the wheat grain, and the higher quality of bread, the less quickly the carbs hit your body, with the most beneficial effect on your energy levels as a lasting source that doesn't contribute to weight. Anothing thing you want to watch out for is bread with added sugars. Honey in whole wheat makes it taste better and is a bit better for you than just plain sugar - molasses is better too. Check nutrition panels and ingredient lists. Try to go for low sugar content in general. Also, you want a good quality hearty whole wheat - Sara Lee's whole wheat white bread just won't do for this.... But here's a pretty good tip: the heavier the loaf of hearty whole wheat bread you are buying, the chances are the better it is for you. It means that it's loaded with fiber (which is always good for you - it sticks to yucky stuff in the intestinal tract and gets it out for you!! very, very good!) - the factory didn't put bubbling agents into the dough to make it more puffy and airy for their product and still charge you for what is essentially, less food. Also, really good bread will have a bit of protein in it too! It might cost more to get a really good loaf. However, when it comes to your health and it enriching your life and making you feel better, it's no problem making room for that and you will be glad you did from time to time. The first brand of bread that comes to mind as the very best healthy bread I know of is Dave's KILLER Bread - certified organic and the most delicious and hearty bread I've ever had to this day in my life. It runs pretty expensive, but you can alternate between this and another cheaper hearty whole wheat in the meantime to save money.

The peanut butter is a great idea, and a good protien bump. However, make sure it doesn't have this: hydrogenated, partially hydrogenated oils, and too much sugar. These will just do you in with peanut butter - not to mention, not very much peanut butter out there is of the best quality - the nutrients and the beneficial, naturally occuring fats in them gets destroyed by manufacturing processes. Again, looking at ingredient lists and nutrition panels on your peanut butter will really help you out. Try getting some natural peanut butter, maybe, the kind you need to stir. Also, there are other nut butters out there to try - some have more of this kind of fat, or more proteins, depending. I just found some plain unsalted, unsweetened pure crunchy almond butter and it is soo good. And you don't have to use jam for a sweet topping - sliced banana, pear, and apples are a real treat - maybe even sprinkle some cinnamon on there and mm mm! This will be more filling for you and still beneficial for your body. You're getting more complex carbs - better than the simple ones in processed flours and processed sugar - from fruits and hearty whole grains. Plus the protein is staying in your system longer and helping the complex carbs get properly assimilated for the most benefit. Just this type of meal will be sooo filling for you, last you a long while till dinner, and sooo good for you too. Go for it! Glad you are getting healthy and good luck, by the way!

The problem is eating right! I exercise but I can't eat right

2011-07-22T02:32:00.000-07:00

I do love to exercise. I like to run on the treadmill and I will do abs and stuff.
But my problem is EATING right. I am a VERY picky eater. All these flat belly diets, eat nuts, olive oil, etc I hate all of that.

I keep reading that eating fish is good for you. Well I really really hate fish. The ONLY seafood I will eat is shrimp.

I hate steak. I will only eat chicken. AND I have most veggies. I only like lettuce, okra, spinach, and peas. Carrots (some days others their nasty), I love pickles (cucumbers are nasty as hell).

When I get a salad I will make a spinach based salad with a little lettuce and chicken and THAT'S it. I see people putting the whole world of nasty (shredded chesse...WTF? eggs, teeth extracting, hard *** croutons and so forth)
I HATE tomatos, corn, broccoli, you name it.

So HOW am I suppose to get in shape. I've looked into different eating stuff and it's all these stuff I've never been able to eat.

AND I am a near horrible cook. I REALLY can't cook. So everything is a recipe.

I don't know what to do...

Answer on The problem is eating right! I exercise but I can't eat right

Shrimp and chicken are fine. Okra, peas and pickles aren't veggies (carbs). You can be a picky eater and still lose weight. I do know that when you run and don't get a balanced meal, you will begin to go over in certain food categories. Runners always go over on their starch because it's an energy source. I would advise you to switch to the bike. It targets lower stomach pooch, thighs and legs. If you can eat rice, potato and bread you're fine with the protein and veggies you eat. Where's your fruit? How much water do you drink? What do you eat for breakfast? My clients use a cookbook and a restaurant menu guide to make wise choices.

How can my sister lose weight?

2011-07-21T11:23:00.000-07:00

Hi, I guess the questions says it for you. How can my 13 year old sister lose weight? She feels really self-conscious about asking so I'm doing for her :/

First off, she's 5'2, weighs like 155-159 pounds maybe? Her thighs and her stomach is what she wants to work off (And her butt hehe :)

Anyway, she does play DDR for the wii sometimes, and she plays to burn like 630 kili (kilo? IDK that small one) calories per game. She has cut down on food, and she now eats when she's actually hungry.

But like, what kind off exercises could she do? She's 13, so don't give her ones for a grown man.

And the catch is she only has THREE MONTHS. So, 13 year old girl, 5'2 and weighs between 150-160, weight loss plan, three months to do so.

Please, I'm tired of her bugging me to help her out :/ Im just her sister.

Is DDR really accurate? And what kinds of foods should she eat and lay off on? Thank you for answering!

Answer on How can my sister lose weight?

To deal with the body fat already on her stomach, the way to lose it, and expose the abdominal muscles underneath, is to lose body fat. The best exercise to do this is aerobic or cardio exercise. In addition, do not ignore weight training. Muscle burns calories. Moreover, cut right down or eliminate those refined (processed) carbohydrates. In addition to exercise, to lose weight you will need to educate about nutrition. Learn what intakes are bad and what are good. Start eating more meals a day 4-6 but with smaller portions, drink more water, substitute products with their healthier alternative. Also, try to reduce stress and get plenty of sleep. Both of these factors are related to emotional eating and weight gain. It is not easy - but nothing worth doing is usually easy!

Newborn baby girl not gaining weight...?

2011-07-21T00:02:00.000-07:00

My baby girl is 2 1/2 weeks old. She was born at 8 lbs 5 oz and ended up having to stay in the hospital an extra day due to weight loss. She was really just border line of the amount they worry about just short of 10% loss. The pediatrician at the hospital suggested that I supplement with formula after nursing which I decided not to do since I don't want to give her formula. She was discharged the next day since she stayed the same and didn't lose any more weight. I had her at her 2 week appointment and she still weighed the exact same as when she left the hospital. The doctor didn't seem too concerned since she has at least 6-8 wet and poopy diapers a day. And other than that she seems just fine. I feed her on demand whenever she wants to eat which sometimes is every hour sometimes 2 or 3 depends on her. I don't let her go longer than 4 though. Just wondering if this has happened for any one else and it all turned out normal and good or if there turned out to be any other sort of problems. Also, I know that she is getting a good amount of milk since I have pumped and seen how much she can get and her diapers show she is getting it too. Thanks.

Answer on Newborn baby girl not gaining weight...?

If your baby is content, nursing frequently, and is producing adequate wet and dirty diapers, she's probably just fine - particularly if your pediatrician didn't find any reason for concern at the 2 week checkup. It can take a few weeks for babies to start gaining again if they lose a lot in the early days.

My only suggestion would be to make sure she's getting enough of the richer hindmilk. If you've been switching sides partway through each nursing session, you might want to try one side per feeding, or even block nursing (staying with the same side for 2-3 feedings in a row). See http://www. kellymom. com/babyconcerns/gro… for more.

Anyone help with this?

2011-07-20T04:57:00.000-07:00

I would like to kepp the weight off and drop a few more pounds, i would like a diet what i cant stick to for a whole week what is easy and i still get protein, can anyone help with diet plans, like rice pasta ect.. i eat no fish or seafood! :-) any help i would be greatful :)

Answer on Anyone help with this?

go wheat free. No pasta, pizza, bread and so on. And no food
after 7 p. m. People achieve marvellous results with it. Depending on
your initial weight, you can drop upwards from 20 pounds a month. If
you don't eat wheat then you don't eat all those sticky, fatty goey
cakes, you don't eat junk food, and you don't eat biscuits. But your
diet is still balanced. It costs nothing, and you do not have to
calculate points or to buy special meals or plans.

What did you think of Italy's new soccer uniform?

2011-07-19T08:10:00.000-07:00

Heres a site where it shows Italy's new soccer kit:
http://globoesporte. globo. com/Esportes/N…
I thought the jersey with the shorts didnt really match well...if they changed the brown shorts to a different color (or leave the brown shorts and change the color of the shirt) it would look nice...anyways What do you think?

Answer on What did you think of Italy's new soccer uniform?

I am not that keen on it, the design is poor and there are far too many advertisements on it.

http://www. football-shirts. co. uk/fans/ne…

I preferred the old kit.

Is this a good idea for eliminateing high interest?

2011-07-15T11:54:00.000-07:00

for years man has squandered money scammed themselves and eachother borrowed money when they shouldn't and dominated those less fortunate who needed to borrow money. in canada if you go through an institution like money mart to borrow money you hafto pay it back at %23 and yet if you save money in a bank you only get %4 interest of course time is money. my question is why can't there be a web site based on the honor system where you can start get access to a market where say you pay $200 to join and you can invest money into other peoples ideas as small as a penny of course you hafto give your information as much or as little as you want (however if say you gave your social insurence number even though people would not be able to see it they would be able to see that you used it) depending on the information about yourself that you give you will make yourself a better or worse candidate to trust on the site. now you get to choose the amount of money you want to borrow you get to make your own interest rate and payment plan (yes it would be possible to ask for $1000000 pay it back at %1 interest and make a payment plan of $1 a month for the next 1000000 months) however investors would be able to see what your plan is and everything would be searchable like if say you wanted to see all the most recent ideas to invest in with %10 interest gain.. people could even set there borrowing at minimum of $200 with interest of %2100 with a payment plan of 1 hour.. obviously only people with a desire to be genorous would invest in such ideas.. also a person could invest in themself to get access to the money howeverif you want to make $1000000 you hafto reach a million before you can take that money out.. also you would gain interest on all your money even if it hasn't been taken out by somone else because they haven't reached what they need to gain access to it. as well there would be room for somone to write down why they need the money and there plans to pay it back and all the requests they made and investments they made would be viewable so that you would be able to judge somones character by reading the history of there requests. people would be able to show there facebook info and of course all the age rules would apply.. there are ways to make it legal banks do it so even if a liscence is required it is possible.. my idea is for canadians only simply for liscencing reasons however people could access the site from other counties and participate with somthing as simple as a credit card.. there may be some details I've left out so before you say no or somone would scam your honor system if you have never borrowed money from money mart then you can't possibly know the pain of paying %23 interest simply to pay for the hour of processing it takes to lend the money. The fact is I believe many people would be interested in useing such a site not just to make money but for the chance to play real life monopoly with eachother. also you wouldn't be able to invest money untill your caught up with your payment plan or payed back in full however if you were caught up in your payment plan then you could invest. I think thats about it.. so what do you think would you do it I mean it would only cost you $200 to start and then you could invest in 20000 things at a penny each still gain interest on investments that hadn't gone through so each month if your 20000 investments hadn't gone through you would get 800 more pennys to invest with or save to take out when you reach 200 again in 25 years. the fact that it takes 25 years at %4 interest to double your money. I mean just to read 20000 investment ideas would be a game unto itself that would give you countless hours of fun. just like yahoo answers. plus with facebook you'd be able to make friends. and like I said even if you think theres no way to get a liscence for this idea I garuntee you there is if gambling is legal and it's legal to charge people for a game then this is totally legal and if it's not.. it would be such a hard slap in the face of freedom I'd have to learn a language from asia just to fifo!

Eating every other day?

2011-07-11T10:28:00.000-07:00

So my friend was telling me about this EODD (every other day diet) that shes on. Ive read it and it says your suppose to eat anything one day and 300-400 calories the next. But she's being special and has decided to eat 0 calories one day and 800 or less the next. I have tried to explain this is a little dramatic but shes freaking out that she's 5'3 and 185 pounds, 25 years. I'm 21 5'8 and 150 and decided to join her on it, just as an experiment.

Thoughts?

Answer on Eating every other day?

You're going into starvation mode. Not smart. You will gain the weight back even faster when you start eating again. That is the worst thing you can do when trying to lose weight. NOT very smart........

Each week:

Exercise 5X
Eat 1500 cal (Healthy) , protein, fruits, veggies...no sugar
Sleep well
.....
Then, the lbs will melt off!

Good luck :)

Who do I invite to my 2nd wedding? (For 10pts)?

2011-07-04T07:07:00.000-07:00

My fiance and i are getting married May 18th it's a wednesday at 11am.
This is both our 2nd wedding.
My family (dad and brother) aren't talking to me, because i'm not following the traditional catholic sense, i. e. wait until i get an annulment from my first marriage.
The rest of my family is accepting of my relationship w/ my fiance and am thinking of inviting them.

We want a micro wedding. It'll be in a chapel that fits 80 people, right after the wedding we fly out to Italy on our honeymoon. So no reception is planned!

First off, it's on a weekday, it's during work hours. It's our 2nd wedding. I'm not on talking terms w/ part of my family.

Who on earth would want to come to our wedding. As private and as small as i want it, i do want the people i love to witness the most important day of my life.

Who do i invite? Who would come? Any suggestions???

Answer on Who do I invite to my 2nd wedding? (For 10pts)?

You can basically invite whomever you want. It's no longer true from an etiquette standpoint that someone getting married for the second time should have a paper bag over her head from the shame of screwing up the first one! Your dad is in another century. So invite anyone you want to see there.

But...one of the most basic and clear-cut etiquette rules of all time is you cannot invite people to a ceremony and not offer some sort of refreshment afterwards. This is exceedingly rude, because you do need to "thank" your guests for attending your ceremony, and possibly taking off work to do so.

At that time of day, you don't need a meal - maybe cake and a few light appetizers - but if you absolutely cannot make the ceremony earlier, then I'd suggest making this just the two of you, an officiant and a witness.

Where is a good clubbing centre for under 18s in Italy?

2011-07-03T18:37:00.000-07:00

Me and 2 friends want to go to Italy this summer (we will all be 17) and we want to go somewhere where there is a good nightlife available for under 18s. Can you suggest anywhere?

Answer on Where is a good clubbing centre for under 18s in Italy?

You could go everywhere all along the Adriatic coast and specially in places like Rimini, Riccione, Senigallia, San Benedetto del Tronto....if you go more further south you could go in Gallipoli where there is a lot of night life plus a very crystal blue sea but is a lot more far. For what you are searching I think that Rimini is allright. At the age of 17 you can go everywhere in clubs.

I am almost 15 week pregnant with twins and have not gained any weight. Is this bad?

2011-07-03T00:36:00.000-07:00

With my first three pregnancies I gained steady weight throughtout the whole pregnancy. I gained about 30-35 lbs with all of them. This time I am carrying twins and haven't gained any weight at all. I went in the other day and saw the nurse practitioner. She asked me if I was dieting. I am definitely not. I eat the same as always and my perinatal dr. has me drinking TWO ensure shakes a day to help put on weight. I'm just worried that eventually it will effect their health.

Answer on I am almost 15 week pregnant with twins and have not gained any weight. Is this bad?

It can effect their health since babies need fat to develop. It could just be that they're twins and they take the fat that you make so fast that you can't develop it fast enough. Keep drinking those drinks and make sure to eat wisely. Good luck with your twins, I heard they're hard to keep up with.

Opinions on raw dog food diet?

2011-06-13T17:23:00.000-07:00

What is your opinion on it my aunt works in a pharmacy in Malibu California and one of her customers feeds his german shepherd raw food and his coat is beautiful and he looks really healthy.... Some people say feeding your dog raw food is bad so i was wondering if it is good to do or bad because my corgi has horrible dry skin.... Thanks for your time and input

Answer on Opinions on raw dog food diet?

I think it's great. I feed my dogs a raw diet, and it's been one of the best things I think I could have ever done for them. Clean teeth, fresh breath, a healthy, shiny coat, no "doggy" odor, little to no gas, and small, firm stools. Some people think feeding raw is bad because they're misinformed, and have never seen the results firsthand. Yes there is Salmonella on some raw meats, but Salmonella can also be found in kibble and does not usually affect healthy dogs. They're built to handle it. Raw bones, unlike cooked bones, do not splinter and puncture the stomach or perforate the GI tract. And contrary to what some people think, eating raw, bloody meat does not make dogs aggressive or vicious. That is purely a myth.

Consider this. Dogs, who are genetically wolves, have spent the past millions of years of their evolutionary history bringing down prey and eating raw meat and bones. If it was so bad for them, how would they have survived to that point? Yes, most wolves in the wild have shorter lifespans than the average pet dog, but this is largely due to starvation, predation by humans, being hit by cars, or being killed by other animals. Captive wolves (who by the way are generally fed a raw diet) can live long, happy lives just like dogs.

If you're considering a raw diet, I highly recommend it. You should do a little research beforehand to make sure you fully understand what you're doing, but it's really, *really* not that difficult. People try to make it sound difficult but it isn't. Look at it this way; do you compare each and every single meal you eat to a food chart? Is each and every single meal you eat complete and balanced with the correct of grains, vegetables, fruits, dairy, and proteins? Of course not. You feed yourself for balance over time. And so it is the same for dogs. They're just dogs, not scientific creations requiring complex formulas for optimal health.

Anyway. Here are some really great links that can inform you more about a raw diet, and guide you on proper feeding.

How can I lose my potbelly stomach fat?

2011-05-25T02:02:00.000-07:00

I am a 24 year old female and I've had a bit of a stomach for most of college and afterwords. Now it's starting to bother me, as I've been dieting and exercising quite a lot.

I've been eating a lot of fruit and vegetables. I drink a lot of tea (loose-leaf). I have one cup of simple coffee in the morning (not the sweet Starbucks stuff). I almost always eat some fruit from breakfast or rice with natto (I live in Japan). I eat a lot of miso soup as well. For lunch I usually have soup, sushi, or yogurt (or the like) For dinner, I eat fruit, vegetables, etc. I rarely eat grains for dinner. I do muscle training twice a day (in the morning before work and at night when I get home). I used to go jogging about twice a week, but now the temperature is well below freezing every night. I drink a little only on Saturday night. I am considering stopping drinking altogether as it may be a factor in my inability to lose weight. I also get at least 6 hours of sleep every night. Furthermore, my job requires me to stand on my feet and move around 9 hours a day. I sit down only at home or for lunch. I also walk 20 minutes to work and home every day. I eat fast food about once a week, and I've completely cut out candy.

Over the past month I have been losing weight in my arms, hips, legs, and buttocks. However, I have seen very little change, if any, in my abdomen. Most of my pants are becoming to loose to wear, but my stomach still hasn't shrunk at all.
It was my belief that fat is lost equally almost everywhere across the body, so while I've seen weight loss elsewhere, I have seen extremely little, if any, on my abdomen.

Why is this? What am I doing wrong? Any advice on how to really get rid of my potbelly? It looks like I'm pregnant with twins, but I am definitely not. (As I've had this problem for years and it doesn't seem to get better or worse).

What do you recommend?

Answer on How can I lose my potbelly stomach fat?

If you need an online exercise and diet plan to tone up and lose fat, try the Fat X Workout and Diet program. It's a 12 day fat burning and fitness program you can cycle as many times as you want. It works great to lose fat, tone up and get fit fast. The videos and other good tips and tricks to losing weight, toning up and burning fat fast are free on the blog (Fat X101). Good luck.

Phase 2 of P90X help?

2011-05-21T23:32:00.000-07:00

Well, I'm doing Plyo today and I'm still having trouble with it! I'm not overweight at all, and I'm young. How long till I'll be warmed up to this exercise? It always gives me trouble! :(

And also, when did you start seeing weight loss numbers and a change in your overall stomach/waist area? I've already seen results in my legs/arms/back but so far nothing with the stomach! And I haven't lost any weight (probably muscle gain)

Any insight would be nice(:

Answer on Phase 2 of P90X help?

Are you having trouble with specific routines in the Plyo workout? Or all/most of it? I started doing P90X at 330 lbs., and even after losing the 100 lbs., Plyo was still pretty hard for me. A lot of the time I would stop early even. Basically, all you can do is give it your best and when you get to the point where you can't keep "safe" form, you should slow down or stop completely for the day.

I was pretty big to start with, so I shed pounds like crazy just because. Have you looked into Insanity at all? I'm now on to that, and I've noticed a big difference in my ab/waist area. It's tighter and I've also lost like 10 lbs. in 3 weeks. I'd actually recommend Insanity if you're trying to build your stomach area/shrink your waist. If you want, you can E-mail me and I'd be glad to help you out even more through P90X/etc. I'm a Beachbody Coach now and am always willing to help!

If I am staying in Italy and leave the country to travel around Europe, do I still need a visa to stay longer?

2011-05-05T23:25:00.000-07:00

I am staying in Italy with my cousins for the 90 day alotted period without a visa, but I would like to stay another month. If I leave the country to travel around Europe, do I receive another 90 days from the point of my return to Italy? Or does this not reset it, since I am still in the EU?

Answer on If I am staying in Italy and leave the country to travel around Europe, do I still need a visa to stay longer?

The law is that you can stay for 90 days out of every 180 days visa-free. Once the 90 days is up you must leave the Schengen Zone for another 90 days after which time you can return to Schengen for a further 90 days.

It's not possible to leave the area for another country to restart the clock. There is absolutely no way of extending the 90 day period. You could leave Italy and go visit the UK and other European countries which are not in the Schengen Zone, but you still need to stay out for 90 days.

Overstaying your visa-free time is not a good option as you will then be considered an illegal alien. Anything that might bring you to the attention of the authorities eg travelling outside Schengen, medical or hospital treatment, car accident, means you face being deported at your own cost and you will be banned from travelling to the Schengen Zone for several years.

Is it difficult to find gluten or wheat-free food products (for someone with Celiac Disease) in Europe?

2011-05-02T22:23:00.000-07:00

North America seems fairly accommodating for those with a wheat or gluten allergy, but I am wondering if it will be difficult to travel in Europe - particularly places like Italy where pasta is such a dietary staple and part of the culture.

Answer on Is it difficult to find gluten or wheat-free food products (for someone with Celiac Disease) in Europe?

From what I understand, in the larger cities it is rather easy to get food. However, you may have to ask for some products at the pharmacy instead of it just being out in a store b/c of the health care laws there covering specialty foods.
I have found that there are many, many gf travel sites online, so I would recommend that you spend some time educating yourself. Personally, I used those and then contacted local celiac support groups in advance to find out where the best/safest places to eat, where to buy foods, etc. so when I finally got to my destination I already had specific stores and restaurants in mind (and addresses in hand). Good luck!
For example, go here for a Germany and Austrian travel:

Hi! There are tons of websites that carry Bugari Piano accordions for sale and others that are just stocked with helpful information. I would just contact one of these sources and have a photo ready to send. You might also want to post this question in the "Music" section as musicians would probably be more familiar with real values. My other suggestion is that Bonham's Auction House handles wonderful musical instruments, I would contact them as well. I hope this helped a bit and I wish you good luck!

POLL: What do you think of Justin Bieber's pro-Canadian Socialist Health Care beliefs?

2011-04-28T03:52:00.000-07:00

Straight from the horse's mouth:

>> "You guys are evil," he says with a laugh. "Canada's the best country in the world. We go to the doctor and we don't need to worry about paying him, but here, your whole life, you're broke because of medical bills. My bodyguard's baby was premature, and now he has to pay for it. In Canada, if your baby's premature, he stays in the hospital as long as he needs to, and then you go home." <<

Is this a good idea to lower interest rates?

2011-04-25T15:27:00.000-07:00

Is this a good idea for eliminateing high interest?
for years man has squandered money scammed themselves and eachother borrowed money when they shouldn't and dominated those less fortunate who needed to borrow money. in canada if you go through an institution like money mart to borrow money you hafto pay it back at %23 and yet if you save money in a bank you only get %4 interest of course time is money. my question is why can't there be a web site based on the honor system where you can start get access to a market where say you pay $200 to join and you can invest money into other peoples ideas as small as a penny of course you hafto give your information as much or as little as you want (however if say you gave your social insurence number even though people would not be able to see it they would be able to see that you used it) depending on the information about yourself that you give you will make yourself a better or worse candidate to trust on the site. now you get to choose the amount of money you want to borrow you get to make your own interest rate and payment plan (yes it would be possible to ask for $1000000 pay it back at %1 interest and make a payment plan of $1 a month for the next 1000000 months) however investors would be able to see what your plan is and everything would be searchable like if say you wanted to see all the most recent ideas to invest in with %10 interest gain.. people could even set there borrowing at minimum of $200 with interest of %2100 with a payment plan of 1 hour.. obviously only people with a desire to be genorous would invest in such ideas.. also a person could invest in themself to get access to the money howeverif you want to make $1000000 you hafto reach a million before you can take that money out.. also you would gain interest on all your money even if it hasn't been taken out by somone else because they haven't reached what they need to gain access to it. as well there would be room for somone to write down why they need the money and there plans to pay it back and all the requests they made and investments they made would be viewable so that you would be able to judge somones character by reading the history of there requests. people would be able to show there facebook info and of course all the age rules would apply.. there are ways to make it legal banks do it so even if a liscence is required it is possible.. my idea is for canadians only simply for liscencing reasons however people could access the site from other counties and participate with somthing as simple as a credit card.. there may be some details I've left out so before you say no or somone would scam your honor system if you have never borrowed money from money mart then you can't possibly know the pain of paying %23 interest simply to pay for the hour of processing it takes to lend the money. The fact is I believe many people would be interested in useing such a site not just to make money but for the chance to play real life monopoly with eachother. also you wouldn't be able to invest money untill your caught up with your payment plan or payed back in full however if you were caught up in your payment plan then you could invest. I think thats about it.. so what do you think would you do it I mean it would only cost you $200 to start and then you could invest in 20000 things at a penny each still gain interest on investments that hadn't gone through so each month if your 20000 investments hadn't gone through you would get 800 more pennys to invest with or save to take out when you reach 200 again in 25 years. the fact that it takes 25 years at %4 interest to double your money. I mean just to read 20000 investment ideas would be a game unto itself that would give you countless hours of fun. just like yahoo answers. plus with facebook you'd be able to make friends. and like I said even if you think theres no way to get a liscence for this idea I garuntee you there is if gambling is legal and it's legal to charge people for a game then this is totally legal and if it's not.. it would be such a hard slap in the face of freedom I'd have to learn a language from asia just to fifo! (fifo = fit in or leave (most likely to communism))

Answer on Is this a good idea to lower interest rates?

First, you might be more understandable if you corrected your spelling and put in a few line breaks for the paragraphs - this is very hard to read as it is, and hence difficult to grasp your main points. That said...

You talk about investment. Investors are people who are trying to get money to make money. They want a reasonable return for their investment. With what you've said (if I understand it), you are asking people to take a very large risk for a very small return. As you are suggesting, a 4% per annum return over 25 years is a relatively small return on the investment. It's intended for small sums of money - perhaps a couple of thousand dollars - and with virtually no risk. Most investors are looking for at least a 5% return, and preferably something closer to 10% per annum. I know that if I were investing, say, a $1,000,000, I'd want at least 10%, and preferably something closer to 15%, with only a slight increase in risk and costs to get it (I know investors who want as much as 50% over a couple of years.

The problem, if I understand you, is that you see loans as money being borrowed to be spent, usually with no return. That's like taking out a loan to take a holiday, or buy a car - at the end of the loan period, you have something worth less than the money you borrowed. The real trick is to avoid having to borrow money for such negative investments.

The investors I mentioned above often borrow hundreds of thousands of dollars at relatively high interest rates - usually in the region of 10 and 15%. Sometimes, they can get lower rates, but the risk to the lender is practically zero - there's less chance of them defaulting on the loan than the risk of a bank going broke. Do you know what they finish up with? Assets that are worth millions and that bring in an income far larger than most of us ever see.

Most small borrowers are a bad risk! So, your scheme such as it is just doesn't work (but there are parameters that could make it work, just not as you describe it in your question).

How do I lose 5 pounds of fat in 2ish weeks?

2011-04-23T13:46:00.000-07:00

I have been dieting and on a weight loss plan for about two months now and have lost 10 pounds and decreased my body fat from 22% to 12%, I need to lose 5 more pounds of fat or lose a couple pounds of fat and gain a couple pounds of muscle in order to get to 8% body fat, i have been at this for a couple weeks and can't get over the hump.

Answer on How do I lose 5 pounds of fat in 2ish weeks?

I think your body is telling you that you are at the right ratio of fat to muscle.
Who told you you need to lose the extra weight? What are their qualifications?
Don't be sucked in by fads.
Just eat sensibly.

MQ - Thoughts and Opinions?

Answer on For Fans of Blackened Thrash?

MA: well, you know i like this kind of stuff. Compared to the band i put up a couple days ago, can definitely say the thrash on this is more in the forefront. Like Brian said, the first few songs have minimal BM...I listened to some of the songs lower in their playlist and you're right abit more BM influences.

I think i prefer their thrashier songs, like the first song. The BM style songs, seemed abit too monotonous, with the same tempo, vocals,....really nothing too exciting, if you know what i mean.

However, overall, i enjoyed them, and i would have to listen to more of their songs

Does the Raw Food Diet work?

2011-04-18T19:03:00.000-07:00

I have been doing it for a day now, but I want to know if it actually helps for weight loss and not just for ur health. In a week how much do you think that I could lose? How about in a month? I weigh 125 at the moment, am 5'0 and 17 yrs old. Would I reach my goal of 105 in a month? Thanks in advance

Answer on Does the Raw Food Diet work?

Here ill tell you exactly why it works. Its not magic or anything. Fruits and vegetables are VERY low in calories. So if your consuming less calories in the form of fruits and vegetables you will lose weight. If i ate mcdonalds but burned more calories than i ate i would lose weight. If i ate more calories than i burned but ate healthy i would gain weight. See it doesn't matter what you put in your mouth you can get fat on ANY food. BUT its VERY hard to eat lots of calories in the form of fruits and vegetables because well fruits and vegetables are VERY low in calories. So yeah its a good diet but i like eating pasta and bread so i wouldn't want to do it.

Extension of my I-94 form on my B1 Visa...?

2011-04-15T05:41:00.000-07:00

Hi guys, I am Italian and I've been living in NY on a B1 Visa issued on 28th December 2009. The expiration date of this Visa on my passport is 27th December 2010, which means 1 year duration. However, when I landed at the JFK airport, I got my I-94 with an expiration date on July 7th, which means 7 months from the moment I came to the city (Jan 7th). Since my Visa actually expires on Dec 2010, how can I take advantage of those 5 more months that I have available on my passport? Should I just go to ITaly and come back, can I renew it directly here in the US, or should I just asdk to the Immigration to see what to do? Thank you for help

Answer on Extension of my I-94 form on my B1 Visa...?

The period of validity of a non-immigrant visa is the period during which the alien may use it in making application for admission. The period of visa validity has no relation to the period of time the immigration authorities at a port of entry may authorize the alien to stay in the United States.

In other words, the validity period of a visa has absolutely nothing to do with the period of authorized stay.

A non-immigrant in the United States in a class defined in section 101(a)(15)(B), like you, of the Act as a temporary visitor, may not engage in any employment.

Any non-immigrant alien who seeks to extend his or her stay beyond the currently authorized period of admission must apply for an extension of stay on Form I-539 with the fee together with any initial evidence specified on the application form.

If you want to stay longer in the U. S., you can file form I-539 with CIS, and you must attach evidence from your employer justifying why you need another period of stay.

Do I have adult adhd?

2011-04-11T23:31:00.000-07:00

im 23 years old and I am extremely disorganized. I litterly do not have the ability to organize or put things in sequence. Its like a whole part of my brain does not work. im always spaced out. im so spaced out that I nearly walk out of stores and forget to pay for products. Its very hard for me to do well in conversations.

my attention span and memory is too bad too be able to talk to people. I have been on zoloft for 10 years since I was age 13. A dose reduction does not work. All the doctors say that zoloft cannot cause permanate altering of the mind, but i think it can. i going to stop worring about it, and consider my problem ADHD. im also kind of clumsy. Im very distressed about how bad my mind is. I cannot learn anything

i actually tried an extensive diet plan a year ago. I kept it up for 8 months, but did not see much improvement in symptoms.

Answer on Do I have adult adhd?

Sorry I know I just answered your quesiton, and thanks for the best answer.. I would have just emailed you but you don't have mail enabled =(
just curious, what exactly was this diet plan you tried? Was it just a calorie restriction type of diet?

I know what has helped me is the blood type diet. Also limitting simple carbs and cutting gluten out of my diet made a huge difference too. Do you take supplements? Probiotics can help with the spacey feeling. I remember I use to get that a lot.

Or it also could be a problem with your endocrine system like your adrenals or thyroid. When your hormones are out of balance it can cause lots of problems.
Sorry, I hope I'm not sounding annoying, just want to help you start feeling better.

Can I use my GPS in Italy?

2011-03-22T22:45:00.000-07:00

Going to Italy in Sept. Can I use my GPS there? If not, how do I down load the map of Italy on my GPS?
HELP? THANKS!

Answer on Can I use my GPS in Italy?

I've never laughed so hard as when reading most of these answers. The amount of stupidity here is amazing, which makes your job of having to figure out who is full of BS and who knows what they are talking about all the more interesting!

To answer your question, you will be able to use your GPS in Italy if it either has a map of Italy on it or if has updatable maps and you can purchase a map of Italy for it. Not all GPS units have updatable maps.

The GPS signal in Italy is exactly the same signal you will get anyplace.

Anyone answering in any other way is wrong.

Since you gave us the make and model, I did some more looking. I can not find maps of Italy for anything other than the Maestro 3100 and 3140 plus the Maestro 4010, so I think you are out of look relative to using this GPS in Italy.

All my lady friends are saying that Justin bieber can dance like Michael Jackson? Do you agree?

2011-03-18T18:49:00.000-07:00

I think that this is a bullshit statement and when it comes to bieber, he shouldn't even be in the same sentence with mj when it comes to musical performance. But hey that's my opinion. What's yours?

Answer on All my lady friends are saying that Justin bieber can dance like Michael Jackson? Do you agree?

He's got a long ways to go if he wants to be MJ. However, he can mimic his moves pretty well! Him and Usher did pretty well tonight. I am not a fan of Beiber at all, but thought the performance was pretty good.

Other source or pet food containing crude fiber?

2011-03-11T17:48:00.000-08:00

My american pit bull terrier has soft mushy stools. I took him to the vet and the vet suggested that my 12 week old puppy be given a pet food with 6% crude fiber in it. currently I am feeding him wellness super5mix just for puppies which contains not more than 5% crude fiber. I want to stay within the wellness brand but the only other pet food that has more crude fiber than what I already own is a health mix for overweight dogs and has not more than 8% crude fiber.

Is there another pet food you could recommend that stays as close to a raw diet as wellness and meets my crude fiber requirements? Is there another source/food/supplement I can feed to my dog to meet the crude fiber requirements of 6%?

Answer on Other source or pet food containing crude fiber?

Try adding a little PLAIN canned pumpkin to the dog food everyday.

Is this a healthy enough diet?

2011-02-01T14:30:00.000-08:00

I've been told by my doctor to do at least an hours gentle exercise a day (eg, biking, walking) and to eat a healthy diet cutting out all bad foods for 3 weeks and then if I start to feel better, then to be allowed occasional treats. I know it's important to be healthy anyway, but this is vital because I am trying to recover from a virus and didn't have a healthy enough lifestyle to support recovery.

For this healthy diet, I really want to go for it and I'll feel like I've ruined my diet even if I eat one small bad thing. Trouble is, the cereal bars I thought were healthy are loaded with sugar and it's the same with the yoghurts. I find it difficult to actually feel like I'm being truly healthy.

Today I've had -

Breakfast - Shredded wheat, low fat milk and a vitamin
Lunch - Fresh salmon and a bit of phillidelphia cheese, innocent smoothie and an apple
Snack - 1 dark rye ryvita
Dinner - Wholewheat pasta, brocolli, sweetcorn and chicken

Is this balanced enough? I really want to feel better in myself and it probably sounds stupid that I can't even plan my own healthy meals, but so many products are deceiving in the shops that I honestly do not know. Any help or more interesting ideas for food would be of help, thanks!

Answer on Is this a healthy enough diet?

It is kind of healthy but very meagre especially if you are still recovering.
Add more vegetables and fruit. The salmon fillet works really well with a nice vegetable stirfry or salad. Watch out for pre-prepared drinks like innocent smoothies because they have more sugar in than you realise.

You might, as someone else suggested, want to consider eating 6 times a day. 3 smallish meals and 3 snacks stop you feeling hungry and keep your metabolism going for longer to help you digest all your food.

Any wholewheat cereal is good for breakfast and using low fat milk is perfect. Consider adding some fruit like banana, blueberries or raspberries and a glass of fruit jiuce.

miid-morning a snack of fruit and cheese will help top you up and add valuable vitamins and calcium. try 30g low fat cheese and a handful of grapes or an apple. Or how about a milkshake made with 200ml low fat milk and a handful of blueberries.

Lunch should be a good lean protein, like the salmon, or chicken, lean beef, lean ham or turrkey.
Lots of vegetables and a little rice, pasta, noodles or bread. These are starchy carbohydrates to give you energy.

Mid afternoon snack on fruit or raw vegetables or a low fat yogurt. If you go for a yogurt, do check the sugar content because you'd be surprised how often there is more sugar in low fat products than in full fat ones.

Dinner you seem to have pat. a good carbohydrate in moderation, vegetables and lean protein.

For a little snack later in the evening go with a low fat yogurt or some fruit. No less than two hours before you go to bed though.

The problem with a lot of pre-packed foods is that they contain a lot of chemicals, salt and hidden fats and sugars. There are a lot of things that you can make yourself that are a lot more healthy.

For a lunch how about tuna pasta salad. Use Tuna that has been canned in brine or springwater if you can find it as it is less salty. Not oil. Drain the tuna and mixed with cold cooked pasta, veggies of your choice and a little low fat mayonnaise.
Or a sandwich made with wholemeal or granary bread. Spread low fat sunflower spread on one slice and a low fat dressing of your choice on the other. Pack your sandwich with lean meat such as ham, turkey or chicken, salad leaves and sliced tomatoes.

Liven up your salmon fillet by baking it in the oven with a teaspoon of soy sauce. Serve it with stir fry vegetables and some noodles.

Treats you could try making up yourself. If you like chips and dips an alternative is home made tatziki or hummus with raw carrot, baby corn cobs and celery to dip. Super tasty. Just go easy with the hummus because it does contain some fats. The beauty of making your own is you know what's in it.
An alternative to icecream is frozen yogurt. For an instant 'ice cream' put 500g low fat natural yogurt in a blender with 500g frozen blueberries, raspberries or strawberries and sweeten to taste with splendor or other low cal sweetener. Whizz it up until it is thick and creamy. You can eat it straight away, watch the portion sizes thougn, that should make enough for 6-8 small portions. You can also freeze it for a couple of months. Just take it out half an hour before you want to use it though because it sets really hard.

Drink plenty of water and switch to low fat or low sugar/sugar fee alternatives where you can.
The exercise can be fun, swimming and dancing are good exercise too.

Good luck.

6.Germany - BMW, Mercedes-Benz,

9.Austrailia - Kangaroos
10.Peru - thats where some Lacoste shirts are made

what are ur top 10?

Answer on IF the world was going to end and you HAD to SAVE 10 countries which 10 countries would u save?

I don't like the question - the idea of choosing who lives or dies.

So why did I answer it? Well, it is intriguing - very much so.

I would want to save the institutions of Western Civilization, because I think they provide the most freedom, prosperity and capacity for tolerance of all. America, England, Israel, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, France, Germany, Canada, India.

Again, a very arbitrary list.

Losing any civilization would be an incalculable loss.

I wish we could all get along. . .

My ex is coming home from Italy for a week, what should I do?

2011-01-11T22:29:00.000-08:00

My ex boyfriend is in the air force, we were "together" for 8 months but only official for about 2. We stayed separated because he would rarely be home and he didn't want to put me through the military lifestyle especially when he knew Afghanistan would change him. He said he wanted to wait until he was out of the service to see where our relationship would go. We never really get to talk because he is in Italy now but I still love him more than ever. His dad talked to me today and told me that he was coming home from Italy in August for a week before he goes to Afghanistan. I don't know what to do. His dad said he wants me to come over for dinner while he's home but I'm terrified to see him. I feel like it will hurt me more than help me. I haven't seen him since Christmas and I don't know if seeing him would be a good idea or not. Should I see him? Should I wait for him to get a hold of me when he's home? I'm so lost. I don't know what to do...

Answer on My ex is coming home from Italy for a week, what should I do?

.He chose the military over you. Forget all that patriotic nonsense about heroes. You can of course accept thie invitation. Be friends and live your life

What are some good cheats for animal crossing wild world on ds?

2011-01-04T11:11:00.000-08:00

I have looked and looked online and all of the cheats i've found are not helpful. I really want to know money cheats and how I can get a mansion. If possible, can you attach a link for a website with cheats that doesn't require my phone #? Thanks!

Answer on What are some good cheats for animal crossing wild world on ds?

I know everything about animal crossing, if you put 10,000 bells in your bank and change the date on your nintendo ds too 2099 you will get loads of money, it works on nintendo ds, im not sure if it will work on nintendo dsi, or 3ds, this will cover your town in weeds, you can put mats down so the weeds don't take over, but either way its allot of effort into pulling them up. If you do this cheat over and over again by keeping the money in the bank and change your date to 2001 and then to 2099 over and over again you will have so much money, and some of the shops might upgrade as well. Need to no anything else, ask me :)

Every time you turn on the TV are you more tempted to vote for the BNP?

2011-01-02T01:00:00.000-08:00

There was a play in Glasgow where Jesus was a transsexual or transvestite or some other creature like that, oh and we should rename Christmas a "winter-festival" lovely ;) and on a wider note Crucifixes have been banned in Italy, ITALY!

The "extreme" BNP is starting to look more and more tempting in this extreme anti-christian society we live in!

Imagine pulling that sh*t with muslims?

Answer on Every time you turn on the TV are you more tempted to vote for the BNP?

Its getting 'more tempting' every single day. All these local/government authorites have all but taken our way of life and heritage away. These people who are trying to change our thinking and way of life are no doubt the 'English Extremists' all backed up by the PC and Human Rights crowd who have now taken 'full control of the UK'.

Kids not being allowed to have their 'nativity play' (in some areas) and other English activitys that we have had for 100's of years for fear of 'hurting' the feelings of none UK indigenous people and all the other restrictive rules being forced on to the public.

Yes its getting very 'tempting' too consider voting for the BNP. They can do 'no more damage' to the UK then these governments past and present have done to this country already.

Family is being very judgemental about becoming a vegan, especially my husband?

2010-12-25T00:19:00.000-08:00

I am a beginning vegan. I have been reading about it for the past year and had already cut beef and pork from my diets and had been substituting soy products for our regular dairy. But Now that I am going full fledged vegan, my husband is having what can only be described as a temper tantrum. He is from a family that is all about meat. At every family get together, there are several types of meat from steak to ribs and bacon wrapped this and that. He thinks I am going to make him look bad by not eating meat. To his family, the more meat you eat the bigger of a man you are or something like that. We are from Texas, so meat is a big deal here. How do I handle my husband's fits? And how do I handle our family get togethers with all the meat? Typically we have them 2 times a month, so it isn't really something that can be avoided. I am not trying to completely change my husband into a vegan. I told him I would still cook him meat if he thought he had to have it, but every vegan meal that I have made he has loved. He is being stubborn about it because of how his family is. Suggestions would be great.

Also, if you have resources to helpful info and recipes for a new vegan, I would appreciate them greatly! Thanks!

Answer on Family is being very judgemental about becoming a vegan, especially my husband?

Maybe he cares about your health, because he knows that humans are not supposed to be vegans. He doesn't want you to suffer from malnutrition. But like they say, you can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink.

How do I lose 10 lbs in 10 days?

2010-12-22T05:59:00.000-08:00

Okay, before anyone tells me this is unhealthy and this is stupid, I KNOW. If I had the CHOICE, I would do 10 lbs in a month. However, I don't have that amount of time. I have to weigh in in 10 days and I just found out yesterday I need to drop 10 lbs. And no, I won't use weight loss pills and I won't use laxatives.

Help...

Answer on How do I lose 10 lbs in 10 days?

It's funny you're asking I just did the exact same thing, the only difference is that I was depressed but I can remember that I almost ate nothing but water melon (in large amounts ) it served as a food and water.

Venice or Rome, Italy? If you had two days to visit in each .. which city would you choose?

2010-12-12T18:47:00.000-08:00

and why?.. what can you do in two days? Thanks for your help!

Answer on Venice or Rome, Italy? If you had two days to visit in each.. which city would you choose?

Rome is by far a city you will be sorry if you miss. The Sistine chapel, the Roman forum, Colosseum, gorgeous churches that will move you to tears, and just the complete beauty of the city and looking over at a hillside and seeing the olive trees. It's a lot of walking, thousands of steps, and up and down hill after hill so wear comfortable shoes. We went in April and it was a little chilly off and on. dress in layers.
Just know that you'll get hooked and one visit won't be enough.

I enjoyed Venice but after about a day you'll have seen enough to be satisfied. I was a little disappointed in some of the landmarks here because they had more of a flea market atmosphere and I was expecting to see history.

Should I at least try to give my diabetic cat shots?

2010-12-07T01:01:00.000-08:00

I'm just agonizing over what to do. Chester was diagnosed a week ago and has improved with changing his diet (drinking less water and he actually has short moments of energy). But he is mostly lethargic, yet he eats and drinks well and enjoys being rubbed and petted, which he is getting a lot of because he stays to himself under a cabinet thingy we have. I think he's enjoying being home and he is not suffering, just feeling tired and unenergized, I say I think. So that's where we stand.
Now to the question... I don't think I could give him shots because he is very unapproachable with any kind of treatment and I've never given a shot to anything. Now as lethargic as he gets, I was wondering if it might be easier to "capture" him and administer a shot. If any of you have experience with this, please let me know how you do it and any tips or ideas you have. How much does insulin and needles cost? I'm just trying to extend his life, yet be fair to him. I hate even thinking about this. He's just my funniest and loving boy.

Answer on Should I at least try to give my diabetic cat shots?

Our diabetic cat was 'normal' once he was put on insulin. He would get his Lantus twice a day, 2 units each time. And his canned food (go for a low fat, low carb type) helped a lot. Once a cat is regulated, they're darn close to 'normal' again.

Yours isn't fully regulated if he's lethargic. PLEASE do get him on insulin, it's a treatable condition. Price shop around, we found that WalMart was cheaper than Walgreens and they had lower cost for the syringes. I reused each syringe once, so we were going through 1 a day, the box of 100 was $16. The insulin costs were for the cartridges at first, then the bottle. It broke down to about $10 a month for him. NOT expensive. The insulin needs to be refrigerated and you can't shake it or that breaks the suspension. But if it's clear, not full of bubbles and isn't doing a color change, the Lantus is good for FAR longer than the 28 days they have listed on it. Our pharmacist said that he's known of Lantus to not be as fragile as first thought, and a bottle can be used for up to 6 months without reduced efficiency.

Come over to YahooGroups and type in 'diabetic cat', there are at least two extremely good lists over there and all the owners have diabetic cats they're treating.

As for foods, there are lists online where the canned and dry foods on the market have been broken down and tested--you can compare brands side by side with protein and carb content. A diabetic cat needs high protein, low carb, low fat. Here's one of the sites--it has several lists.
http://www. felinediabetes. com/diabetic-c…
Click on the blue for the canned or dry.

We fed Royal Canin Siamese 38 to ours, as well as a partial can of 9-Lives Super Supper (6 carbs a can) or a small can of any of the Fancy Feast 'feasts' without gravy, each day. He was allergic to something in the Diabetic Management food that Purina puts out (that's a prescription dry food). The Royal Canin Diabetic Management was good, but he still had weight issues with that one. So mostly he was on canned, with the dry being available all day.

NEVER give an insulin shot if the cat has not eaten at least 2 tablespoons of food less than 1/2 hour before his shot. The insulin needs digesting food in the stomach to be safe. Giving the shot was easy, he never felt it. You do it in the neck skin (you pull it up and inject into it). You can also use the loose skin in front of the hind legs. Just don't hit muscle when you inject. There are 'how to' videos over on YouTube, it shows how easy it is.

In fact, here. This video shows on a hairless cat, you can see how it is done without fur in the way...

The owner really loves his cat. You can see exactly how it's done and that no it does NOT hurt the cat.

Weight loss possibilities?

2010-11-23T18:00:00.000-08:00

Now before i ask this question I know I won't be able to get a specific answer so I wont even as for one. But if I walk like 4 miles a day and workout for like 30 minutes a day 6 days a week and eat healthy. Will I lose a noticeable amount of weight by mid april ish. I am going to a school on the beach and I know i wont be like supermodel skinny but I do want to slim down a bit. So any estimates of what i could loose would be great

Answer on Weight loss possibilities?

One pound of fat is equal to 3500 calories. So, you have to burn that many calories in one day. However, let's assume that you normally use only 2000 a day, and with exercise, increase that to 2700 a day.

Using 2700 calories a day, you would only lose about 5 pound in a week.

(2700 calories x 7 days) / 3500 calories to a pound = 5 pounds lost in a week.

Even if you didn't eat anything for a week, you would lose only seven pounds. HOWEVER, your body would think that it's starving, and would dramatically lower the metabolism to prevent death. That is why it takes so long to starve to death; you're literally wasting away, but at a very slow rate. Further still, that is why diets don't work. It's not likely that you'll be able to fast and exercise for a week, furthermore. You would feel too weak to exercise, and the fast pumping blood would only contribute to your growing headaches.

Therefore, he only way to lose weight is to cut a certain amount of calories per day. It's not necessary to eat a balanced diet, but it would help. Believe it or not, there are strictly carnivorous or vegetarian peoples with far better health than the average "civilised" person (they have better colon health because they squat to defecate; not because of their diet).

If you want to take the balanced route, get whole (not enriched, or "made with whole") grains, fruit, veggies, a little meat, and dairy daily. Don't forget to drink water, and exercise often. There's no easy way to do this, which means you NEED to exercise. I have a link to a basal metabolic rate calculator, but I wouldn't live by it, because it only asks for a little information, meaning it can't be extremely accurate. BMR is how many calories you need per day to survive. It's higher if you exercise.

That is, unless you live in the wild. In nature, you have to find or catch your food, and you could never eat too much because you have to get it yourself. Just surviving would be enough exercise. Have you ever seen an overweight animal in it's natural habitat, NOT in captivity? Of course not.

It's easier to gain than lose weight.

Tuberculosis in Medieval Times?

2010-11-17T02:21:00.000-08:00

I have a few questions. What was considered the cause of this disease in the medieval times? What are the treatable symptoms (fever, chills, weight-loss, loss of appetite, night sweat). Was there a cure back then? What was it? and What sources of foods could you eat to help? These questions are from the medieval times. Not the present day. Thanks.

Answer on Tuberculosis in Medieval Times?

in the case of Nepal, a under developed country, tuberculosis was regarded as a curse of god.

Cutting down fat quick. how ?

2010-11-10T14:47:00.000-08:00

im in my cutting phase now. im thinking of going for a jog as soon as i wake up in the morning on an empty stomach, i heard its one of the tricks for quickly burning fat, but i heard on the other hand running on an empty stomach is consider as sabotaging your own body. i do go to the gym 4 times a week, doing compound exercises and each time i finish my workout session i would get a quick whey protein shake. so is jogging in the morning is a good idea? and it helps if someone could tell me is there a special diet that works well to this routine. im currently getting a high protein low carb diet. but any additional tips would help

thank you!

Answer on Cutting down fat quick. how?

Eat healthy: eat 3 whole meals a day. For your meals, you want something healthy and that fills you up so that you don't get hungry again for a long time. You need to also make healthy choices like eating whole wheat bread or whole grain bread instead of white bread and brown rice instead of white rice. Cut all junk food. They are bad for you and cause weight gain fast. Cut fast food as well! If you get hungry in between your 3 meals, eat a piece of fruit/vegetable, low-fat yogurt, skim milk, or fruit juice. THey are all good and healthy and will burn fat. As well as eating healthy, combine with exercise and you will lose the weight healthfully and easily. Diets don't work in the long run. When you consume too little, or deprive yourself of certain foods, you are also not getting the essential nutrients. That's why everyone gain the weight back and more in diets. Diet's are a plan for fail. INstead, just focus on eating healthy. You will feel better, look better, and perform better. Opt for a healthy lifestyle, not a fad diet. that's how you lose weight and keep it off for good.
For the exercise, don't overdo yourself. Just walking, jogging for 1 hour each day will be more than enough. Rememeber to rest for 1 day of the week. Also, if 1 hour is too long for you, you can BREAK IT DOWN thorughout the day. Nobody said you have to get it all done in one shot, just do some after you wake up, some in the afternoon myabe, and sometime before or after dinner. It's more managaeable that way.
eat healthy and exercise is the golden rule of losing weight. Good luck hun :)
