Voting Question: Is it safe to keep playing soccer with a possible pinched nerve?
I am currently a High school student working in our school sports med. program. I am working with the girls soccer team and a girl was complaining about extreme pain in her shoulder, she has lost alot of ROM and had pain in every direction. She also said the pain in starting to radiate up her neck and down to her fingers. I told her that I think it's a pinched nerve and she should go to the doctors asap. She still hasn't gone after a week and she has been playing everyday and she recents got hit difficult in one of the games and fell on her shoulder. She says the pain is easing a little after she takes advil but i really think she should look a doctor before she continues. Is it safe for her to keep playing?

Resolved Question: Is the holodeck better than exploring alien worlds?
I've noticed in Star Trek: TNG that rather than visit the myriad alien worlds they encounter and there engage in everything from sight-seeing to absorbing culture to extreme sports the Enterprise crew prefer to play on the holodeck and it seems more like a lack of budget for special effects than what a real space explorer would prefer.

Please help and tell me what i can do, i just want i

Resolved Question: Are extreme periods of sadness normal?
I'm not feeling this now but when I do I feel like my life is falling into nothing, I want to snooze forever and not wake up, or I don't put on my seat belt because I'm hoping that just maybe I'll receive into a car accident. I feel like I'm alone, that no one really knows me(I don't tell many people about my personal life), that I have no friends and wonder why anyone even bothers to talk to me. I sometimes think about shutting everyone out and not talking to them anymore. I feel ugly and stupid. People say I'm smart and I feel like I'm lying to them(my grades are lowering to C's and I started failing some classes this year. I can't remember things like due dates or even if I have homework.) I feel scared that everyone will find this out because of how intelligent they thought I was. I have a 3.0 I start to lose interest in living(but I don't want to die so I feel stuck), sports, reading, and making good grades. I just want to toss away my responsibilities and snooze or curl up in my bed and sob or blank out. I'm more lazy than usual. I usually don't cook or pay my sister to wash dishes on my turn. When I feel like this I lay in bed every day or on a weekday I drag through school and try to be glad so no one asks what's wrong. I used to want to be a doctor since before I was in 5th grade but now I really don't know what to do. I'm only a junior in high school and already feel like my life is a failure. I feel like I'm letting everyone down. I can't be a doctor if I don't study and make bad grades. I'd fail in college(which I'm not ready for.) Most of every I feel like if I tell anyone they'll think I'm crazy or depressed. Which I'm not. This only happens maybe 4 or 3 times a month and lasts for a day occasionally two.

Also in extreme sports, car and motor sports, strong men competition etc white domination is nearly 100%. Also whites win nearly 95% of Nobel Prize awards, Oscar awards, Pulitzers, Precidencies etc. Whites went on the moon, colonized the planet, created the biggest empires, explored the seas and mountains, invented pretty much everything in the western world blah blah http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olympic_medalists http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Nobel_laureates Is every that a coincidence?

Resolved Question: Valentine's Day gift ideas for a boyfriend?
I'm trying to think of nice things to do/receive for my boyfriend on Valentine's Day. I can spend up to $500 or I could make something. We're both 18 (so nothing sexual please. xD) and we've been together for 4 years. He doesn't like sports like football and baseball. He prefers snowboarding, surfing, and other "extreme/one player" sports, not teams. He doesn't play videogames, that's my thing. haha. He enjoys drawing and painting. He's a musician. He can play bass clarinet, contrabass, acoustic & electric guitar, piano, and a few other instruments, but he doesn't need any new pieces/picks/cases. :/ He can basically receive what he wants most of the time, and so it's difficult to think of gifts. I've already done the "1,000 Reasons Why I adore You" and done other handmade/written things like that, so I'd adore to buy him something he'll actually like & use (not cologne either *sigh*). Problem is, he won't tell me what he wants. Does anyone have any ideas? Thank you so much!

Resolved Question: Contact with African Americans a mixed bag.?
Ok to start with, I agree with MLK's dream that we should look at the content of a persons character instead of the colour of their skin. However, here is what ive noticed in my contact with african americans: They seem to gravitate toward extremes in behaviour. I have rarely been in on a conversation with them that doesnt have to do with music,their sex life, being diescriminated against, their favorite sports team, or their sex life. Ive rarely seen black people talk about what's actually in their hearts, their feelings, and give each other advice other than "you'll receive over it" , "theirs alot of hotties to pick from dont let that one bum ya out", or spit out some slang saying which basically would make one think they dont care about that particular person's sitution. (BTW I HAVE seen them do for one another and care for one another more than european americans seem to do(I am a european american just for reference sake) Aso Ive rarely seen them when being introduced to one another shake each other's hands and say "pleased to meet you" or any for of appropriate expresion of gratitude in meeting another person. usually ive heard them do a self testimonial followed by a nicknae instead of some form of their legal name". Also facial expressions tend to be: (in no particular order) 1. unhappy 2. mad 3 Manically glad 4.flirtatious their body language seems to reflect the over moods also. Ive rarey seen an african american walk to the store calmly, with a gentle grin on their face. Please keep in mind I am not predjudiced (though from the over you may think I am) I dated a blck lady for a while and even thought I icy tell from what she said aand te inflection in her tone of voice how she was feeling, very rarely did her body language and facial expression match up. Or , if they did it was very subtey so.. So my question is Why is this the case?? And believe me I mean no offense...i just wish to understand.

Open Question: supplements/steroids... is it always a bad idea?
I have always wondered if taking supplements was a bad idea... i began by just taking protein produced by maximuscle because i knew they were reputable ... i always figured that a company with so much to lose would never dream of putting anything harmful in their products so i was content in taking protein , i then moved on to progain, a mixture of protein and creatine along with sugars to aid in transport and absorption into the body... since then i have tried many many supplements ... some briefly and some i use daily... optimum nutrition is a supplement i would use daily but i have tried some maybe a bit more dodgy such as jack3d and hemorage and extreme weight loss stuff as well. I am a very fit person and my sport requires fitness to be top priority ... far over explosive strength and size... but i have always wondered are steroids a step too far. I watched a documentary on them and the pros and cons. i realize that they have been linked to brain problems and cardiovascular , liver and other organ failure as well as severe depression but these were not fully investigated because steroids were banned so early on. you hear of cancer patients and people with really debilitating diseases beings helped through the use of steroids so they can't be every bad.. i am wondering if anyone here has used them and if so which ones where did you receive them, any side effects? and also any major gains??

Open Question: Exercise/sports to stretch spine/torso for kids?
Hello, I know my question comes a bit early, as my daughter is still only 2 years old. However, I would like to gather more information from now. I arrive from a family with females of short torso, broad shoulders, wide ribcage and typical apple shaped body type – to top it off, I also have a mild scoliosis, which I believe, have shortened my torso even more and gave me this extreme apple shape/masculine look. Anyway, I’m meanwhile concerned about my 2 years old daughter to have the same body type as me. Now I know it’s every about genetics, but I’m also a firm believer that certain exercise and sports can “refine” a body shape while growing. Do you have any ideas about sports or exercise to help stretching the spine and torso in kids while growing? So even if my daughter will end up with broad shoulders and typical apple-shaped body like I do, at least the long torso will balance her look a bit… Thanks for any input!

Resolved Question: Is love hopeless for a woman like me? Are there men out there that would be into a woman such as I?
I find that I am quite blunt and lack a bit of empathy...I am not super emotional. Nothing really phases me and I find that I am pretty tolerant to a lot. I am a dominant type of person, but I do like to be submissive once in awhile. At times, I must admit that I am lazy or unmotivated. I have bouts of depression, but I tug through. I have Anxiety disorder, but have manage to receive it below control quite well on my possess -no medication-. I am independent and need space, can't stand someone who is constantly clingy. Also, I am completely monogamist and loyal. I am a strong character, can handle a lot. I have an I.Q. of 137, its not super high, but I am fine with it. I am fascinated by science in general, specifically Forensic Science. I know a lot; my nickname is encyclopedia. Things I know are mostly random facts. I wonder where I store every the information I learn as I know a lot. My memory is amazing..its like a sponge hungry for information. Most thing I talk about are morbid and disturbing, but that is what I am into. Like, how there are butterflies that eat rotting flesh/meat or that I talk about different ways in how a human/ animal can be tortured to the extreme. It goes on from there. I do talk about informative things aside from those sorts of things like medicine and food. I just know so many random facts and such. People say that I am a but quirky especially in how I talk, nice of like Patrick Jane in The Mentalist as my friends have compared me to. I am working towards becoming a Morgue Pathologist [Coroner]. Here and there, I am working on a Masters for Abnormal Psychology. I have only held one job in my life, but that is mainly because I hate cooking quick food and selling things. This summer, I am working on becoming a Dog Trainer. I cannot become a Paramedic -doing this to build experience for career- until my license thing is done. I just got my N. You receive your L for one year and then you do a road test to receive your N. N last for two years before you do another road test to receive a full license. I have both a N motorbike license and a N car license. Once its every done with, I want to receive my commercial license so I can become a Paramedic. Some hobbies I have include: I play many instruments including: the clarinet, the trumpet, cello, piano, the soprano bugle, and the flute. I do Ninjutsu and fencing. I play many sports, but I truly like swimming and playing baseball. I write. I am currently working on a novel. Also I adore to paint and sketch as much as I can. I adore to cook good food from scratch like Alfredo or Macaroni for instance. I am not to into sea food. I adore to give massages and keep a place clean, but if I am bossed around...I receive below your skin and can become your worst foe. Don't know why, I just do. I take great gratisfaction in having a well decorated place; everything in my home is completely white; white sofa, dinning table and black and white paintings on the walls. I have a few. My bath room set is white and black. Although my bed set is blue and silver. I find that I like simplicity. Are there any men out there that would date a lady such as I? Thanks. Please, only serious and mature answers. I apologize for my errors, I typed it up on my cell phone...car-correct is murder. For those who need to know, here are some pictures of how I look: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.264395643592723.71394.100000668676247&type=3 Okay, fine. My measurement is: 34C, 26, 34

Resolved Question: How come I haven't heard of this before?!?
I was bumbling about on YouTube today and I came across this. I'm absolutely speechless! How arrive this isn't a bigger sport?? Is it perhaps because it seems like an insanely difficult thing to well for the layman? Barrelracing seems petty and childish in comparison! O_O If you look you can actually look him completing an exact barrel racing pattern around 3 minutes. Just in extreme form! I am absolutely breathless. I couldn't resist sharing this. I would adore to try this someday but I think I'd need a horse of incredible caliber! So give me your opinions! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XZ8d9ByD5L4&feature=player_embedded ADD! No insult intended to barrel racers, suddenly realised it kinda sounded that way! I'm just amazed at the caliber to which this stuff is taken. Add - Lucky, Thanks for the video, very intresting (and lol how EXTREMELY American!!) but I'm not sure the two are comparable. There's guts and skill, but very little emphasis on symbiosis and extreme collection/finetuned aids. Much like barrel racing, really. : ) But certainly impressive!

Open Question: How does one obtain Master Use and Synchronization Licenses for a charity video?
I am currently creating a high-def, anaglyph 3D video featuring extreme sports athletes at my college. The point of the project (besides the fact that I adore cinematography and extreme sports) is to lift both money and awareness for a local cancer research foundation, and I have a few questions about how to do this effectively and legally. I am somewhat familiar with how licensing of music works (i.e. I know about synchronization versus master use licenses, but that's about it), but I am not entirely sure how to acquire them. So far what I have been seeing is suggestions for using social media to contact people working at the record labels which control the music you are interested in. This certainly makes sense, and I will use this route. Are there any other options that I could take (or approaches I could use because this will be for charity)? Any suggestions at every would be immensely helpful (on licensing, tips on premiering a charity video, or even suggestions for license free music)! Thank you. OTHER DETAILS: the expected audience will be a few hundred people (it will be premiered at the campus movie theater). The film will have commercials before it, paid for by local businesses to increase the money raised for the charity. The film will potentially be sold as a DVD afterwards. Some of the artists that I would possibly use include: God is and Astronaut, Skrillex, Mt. Eden, Breathe Carolina, Atreyu, Collapse below the Empire, and Rise Against.

Your thoughts? agree or disagree? -> Egypt police, protesters clash after soccer riot CAIRO (AP) — Egyptian police fired tear gas Thursday at thousands of demonstrators outside the Interior Ministry protesting the security forces' failure to prevent a soccer riot that killed more than 70 people. Anger has been building as the public and lawmakers blamed the country's military rulers for the bloodshed, the latest to signal rapidly deteriorating security in the country since Hosni Mubarak's fall nearly a year ago. The protests started as a peaceful march by Egyptians mad over the police inaction from the headquarters of Al-Ahly, one of Egypt's most popular soccer clubs, to the area outside the ministry building close Tahrir Square, the epicenter of last year's popular uprising that ousted Mubarak. Security forces guarding the area were separated from the more than 10,000 protesters by concrete blocs and barbed wire, but tensions rose as protesters advanced toward them, cursing and removing some of the barriers. They also raised their shoes in the air and hurled stones. Police responded with heavy tear gas, sending demonstrators running, with some passing out and falling to the ground. Some tried to move big concrete blocs erected around the ministry since November, when clashes between the police and protesters then left more than 40 people dead. In scenes reminiscent of those clashes, protesters set tires on flame, sending black smoke in the air. Motorcycle drivers ferried some of those wounded from the site as ambulances were unable to receive through. Egyptian state TV said 100 people had passed out from the tear gas. The Interior Ministry said in a statement the protesters had clip the barbed wire, and crossed over the concrete blocs to reach the roads leading to the headquarters. It urged the protesters "to hear to the sound of wisdom ... at these critical moments" to prevent the spread of chaos. Wednesday's riot at the stadium in Port Said erupted when Al-Masry fans stormed the field following a rare 3-1 win against Al-Ahly, one of Egypt's most popular clubs, but the violence went beyond the deep sports rivalry between the teams. A network of rabid soccer fans known as Ultras vowed vengeance, accusing the police of intentionally letting rivals attack them because they have been at the forefront of protests over the past year, first against Mubarak and now the military. Many members of die-difficult soccer fans who were among the protesters vowed to storm the ministry. "Either they (police) will die or we will die," said Islam, a member of the Ultras, said. "We are willing to die for the blood of martyrs." He declined to give his last name because of the volatility of the situation. _________

Resolved Question: Would you liked a thought for today?
Happy are those hungering and thirsting for righteousness.—Matt. 5:6. Genuine Christians today need to guard against being unduly influenced by the pleasure-mad spirit of this world. (Eph. 2:2-5) Otherwise, we may be ensnared by “the desire of the flesh and the desire of the eyes and the showy display of one’s means of life.” (1 John 2:16) Or we may mistakenly believe that yielding to the desires of the flesh will bring refreshment. (Rom. 8:6) For example, some people have turned to drug and alcohol abuse, pornography, extreme sports, or various illicit activities in an effort to excite their senses. The “crafty acts” of Satan are intended to mislead by giving one a perverted sense of refreshment. (Eph. 6:11, ftn.) When we are attuned to Jehovah’s regulations, we recognize that any pleasures offered by this world are momentary. (Heb. 11:25) True refreshment, the nice that brings a deep, long-lasting sense of joy and satisfaction, comes from doing our heavenly dad’s will. w10 6/15 5:17, 19

Resolved Question: Do We Really Have Females With This Kind of Mentality? Where Is Maternal Instinct?
Do Child Molesters Endanger Your kids? by Elizabeth Lisa Wright Politicians use fear to terrorize the public into giving them votes.

Of course sex is the American obsession, so hype about sex and sexual fears are grist for the mill of modern yellow journalism. The best horror stories can be woven around the sexual abuse of kids. Child molesters are monsters, vampires, demonic forces! The stories are so ridiculously exaggerated and hyped that parents actually believe that their kids are in danger. Last year quite a number of kids died. How dangerous were the perverts? •Number of kids killed by perverts: 7 •Number of kids killed by drunk drivers: 244 •Number of kids drown: 290 •Number of kids killed on bicycles: 438 •Number of kids killed in playground accidents: 464 •Number of kids killed by gun flame: 4,913 •Number of kids killed my medical blunders: 5,007 •Number of kids killed in car accidents: 6,104 •Number of kids killed by parents: 8,292 Okay, so perverts seldom kill kids. It's much more common for adults to be killed in sexual attacks that for kids to be killed. A lady who is raped has a fairly high risk of being killed or injured. That's due in part to the very extreme punishments being imposed on rapists. He doesn't want to leave a witness to testify against him, so he kills the victim. As the punishments for molesting kids become ever more unreasonable, more child victims will be killed for the same reason. Generally, child molesters like kids and have no desire to hurt them in any way. If the perverts don't kill the kids, do they cause them serious injury? In the past year, the statistics are: •Number of kids seriously injured by perverts: 2 •Number of kids seriously injured by drunk drivers: 1,108 •Number of kids seriously injured on bicycles: 2,105 •Number of kids seriously injured in playground accidents: 4,064 •Number of kids seriously injured by gun flame: 7,226 •Number of kids seriously injured my medical blunders: (Unknown) •Number of kids seriously injured in car accidents: 11,804 •Number of kids seriously injured by parents: 36,253 In reality, child molesters pose little danger to your child. Your child is in 10,000 times greater danger from you. A little sex probably doesn't really do much hurt to anyone, child or adult. But sex is the American obsession, it's sensational and feeds into the neurotic American adore/hate fascination with sexuality. Americans adore sex, but they think they aren't supposed to like it, that it's wrong, dirty or "sick." The sexual interest in kids has always been common and very widely spread. It doesn't seem to have done much hurt even in the 1890s when every the major cities of Pennsylvania had whores as young as 8 being sold in the ubiquitous whorehouses. We should not hurt our kids. We should nourish them. Still, it does no good to exaggerate the dangers of sexual assault. If you really want to keep your daughter safe, keep her out of school. She has a very high likelihood of contracting a serious disease and a good chance of dying from it. If you really want to protect your son form death or injury, keep him away from sports.

Okay I'm a guy and have never understood why people like watching sports especially when I watch those like 40 year old guys who watch the game in their jersey its unhappy, I don't know much like phrases or what stuff is called in most games. The only sports I like are extreme sports like skateboarding paintball and motocross. I don't even watch that on tv because there is no thrill or excitement in watching other people do stuff? So why?

Voting Question: If it is not Gastroparesis, what could it be?
I am 16, female, 5' 5", 135 pounds, active in sports. I am technically very healthy! but my stomach is in some weird condition. Since I was 12 i have not been able to eat without extreme stomach bloating and occasionally, severe pain. No matter what I eat, it is the same. My stomach bloats up HUGE and i look pregnant. I constantly have to suck my stomach in and wear t shirts to cover it up. I am hardly EVER hungry. i can eat a piece of toast for breakfast and be full until 5 o'clock at night. However, i know i need to eat more calories than what i am really hungry for each day, so I eat meals at lunch and dinner and tiny snacks as well. Then in the morning, im still not hungry. my stomach is STILL bloated in the morning from every the food i ate when i was not hungry. I have experimented so many things. At first i would only eat when my stomach was no longer bloated and i became extremely hungry (i am never hungry unless my stomach is flat and back to normal): the one day that i attempted this, i only drank water,i ate nothing for breakfast or lunch and at 4pm i ate a turkey and cheese sandwich which bloated my stomach right back to the way it had been. I have abstained from gluten, corn, and lactose at different times with NO change. Kept a food journal for a month and no food was worse than the other. Tried Probiotics. Tried medication. Been tested for Gastroparesis(barium xray). tried eating 6 tiny meals instead of 3 big ones. When i eat big meals, especially at holidays, my stomach is the biggest and most uncomfortable; more so than when i eat a tiny or regular sized meal. I am at a loss of what this could be and so is my doctor. Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas here? please help me with any information you can give! I just want to be able to live without dreading food, i adore food. I adore baking and experimenting and cooking with ingredients. And my family is the type that when you arrive by to say hi, they send you home with a fresh baked pie, and family gatherings middle around a big meal. PLease help in anway you can. Thanks! o my gosh that makes sense. i always always worry and stress over everything. and i am afraid of irrational things. but i excersise every the time. everyday since like 5th grade when this business happened! wouldnt the barium x ray have showed a probelm with the vagal nerve thingy tho? i mean, i was totally stressed out for days and during the proceudure and having to drink that disgusting barium. it was really causing a lot of anxiety for me so wouldnt it have affected it enough to notice? AH! still confused:( thank you though, that at least could be the beginning of an explanation. Anyone else got other ideas or suggestions??

Resolved Question: Why is it possible to get an adrenaline rush from writing a paper?
In the past week I've been doing a lot of mountain biking and snowboarding, which has led to me doing school work (4th year university student) a little close to the deadlines. In fact, in the past week I've written three papers that were either on or right after the deadline. For some reason I just did not care because what I was writing about was super innovative and it gave me a rush similar to the extreme sports that I viciously pursue. Does any else receive this? Especially if you are older, any advice to what I may want to pursue in the future? Btw my first paper was for an NSF grant, in which I argued for LFTR reactors to take over energy production (with limitations in cheap material and social stigma) for the world until renewable tech was perfected. Second one was relating the Cronan's book, Nature's Metropolis, to Keven Slavin's algorithm TedTalk. How neat is that, thats pretty neat :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hm3JodBR-vs lol

Resolved Question: Please help, I think he's upset with me?
Well, there's this guy I like and we text everyday. We play the same sport, so pretty much every my friends know him. So, here's what happened.. My friends found out I text him, and started teasing me and him a bit. Then there was once we walked into training together, then my seniors asked him if he went out with me and he said, 'so?' So that got my seniors into thinking that we're together or something like that. They started giving us nicknames(combining our names, that sort of stuff). Today, they got a bit extreme. My coach was teasing him, not about me, but because he was talking about another boy in his school, about how he envies him. Then my coach suddenly shouted, '(his name) likes (that other boy's name)' then everyone was like '(awww, how can you betray (my name), like that' I didn't say anything, because I felt really uncomfortable. Then later he got the guy I like to referee my match, and they were every like '(my name) sure win' just because he was refereeing. After training he texted me to ask if I was okay, because of what the people were saying during training. I said I was okay and we chatted for a while, then he brought it up again and said 'but today every that in training...' then, 'nevermind, I'll talk to you next time..' I told him not to mind them, but then he said, 'I feel like I really need to talk.' I'm worried that he's upset about the teasing, and that he may think I'm giving people the wrong impression. I was going to tell him that I liked him today, but he left before training ended. We're meeting tomorrow to talk and I don't want to end up telling him how I feel if he's upset but I don't want to deny my feelings towards him if he does ask... Please I need help, could someone give me some advice?

Resolved Question: DS: Should we really be breeding for conformation? Where to draw the line?
First let me say that if you are going to be rude and/or disrespectful, leave this question right now. I do not want to deal with immaturity. After spending close to 2 years here in the dog section(some of you may remember me as "Emily ~ I adore Nelly"), and having gained(and lost, due to randomly disappearing for a few weeks at a time) my TC badge multiple times, I've obviously noticed that when someone is looking for advice on how to find a good breeder, one of the points that is emphasized the most is to find a breeder who only breeds AKC Champion dogs. When it comes to breeds that are still used for their purpose, should we really be breeding for conformation? I think that the most commonly used argument for showing is that the show breeders are making sure these dogs are "structurally sound". That's where I look the biggest problems with breeding for conformation. These breeders that claim this seem to be the ones that also possess the 'problem' dogs. German Shepherds, Cocker Spaniels, many Terrier breeds, and the list goes on..None of them can physically do the work they bred to do. Isn't that just the opposite of what breeding for conformation is suppose to do? As an example: There's two types of Border Collies. There are the show line BC's who are so short and boxy with extremely thick coats that they can't physically handle hours of work. They have lost almost every, if not every of, their herding instinct - and along with that, the steer to work(sports included) and their intelligence. Then you have the ABCA registered BC's who have never been exposed to a show ring, and they're extremely physically sound and able to work for hours upon hours each day without any problems. Breeding stock is chosen by working ability, health and temperament. A dog that is not physically able to do it's job will not be bred. As with almost any breed, just because a dog is still able to do what they were bred for doesn't mean they have to be used for that. For example, many people possess American Border Collie Association(ABCA) dogs that are simply active companions, sports dogs, etc. So I want to hear your opinion - where should the line be drawn when breeding? Should we really be breeding for conformation over working ability/health, when time and time again the breeds are physically ruined due to extreme show judging/breeding? ~~it was not my intention to offend anyone with this question. Please don't take anything personally. Dog Section Regular - Actually, no, this is the first time I've ever asked this. Whoops, I meant to say that I don't think I've ever seen this asked before. ".if you breed solely for working purposes that is ruining the breed. I mean you could have a dog with a over shot bite, no angulation in legs, and a roached back and it could still have great working ability." No it couldn't. Because a dog with those characteristics would not be able to do the job it needs to perform. "conformation is most important or else they would not be able to perform there jobs they were bred for!" No, it's not most important. With dogs that are bred strictly for conformation they can no longer preform the job they were designed to do. In the history of every open trials(meaning a dog from ANY registry can enter), there have only been 2 or 3 AKC Border Collies that placed decently. The relax are ABC BC's. Breeding for conformation over working ability diminishes the natural abilities of a dog. A BC that has placed well enough to be bred is also extremely physically sound, because our trials require a lot of difficult running, turning, etc. in a dog. Not just trotting in big circles in a show ring.

Resolved Question: Is everything based on survival?
I was thinking that everything we do is based on survival. So someone says they play the guitar for themselves are they really playing it for themselves or are they infact learning a new skill to impress a potential mate? So nohting we do is for ourselves? we think it is but in fact its every to do with survival. Like people needing to fit in,bullying, dress sense etc. Fear of heights. Umm would someone do an extreme sport (putting their life in danger) if no one else was around to hear about it. "ow yeah man I just went skydiving the other day". done to impress. I think this is difficult to think about because a lot of us perceive ourselves as individuals who do things for themselves but do we? Donating or being involved in charities? Ahhh but with the video games maybe you play them to tell you're friends to fit into that group, or if you don't have any maybe the only way you can survive is to play games because group, you gotta look at every type of survival!

Voting Question: Rowing team and calories?
Hi! I'm a college freshman, 5'10", female, and about 145 pounds. I used to be anorexic and have now recovered, and am also on the rowing team here at college. For those who don't know, rowing is a pretty extreme sport, and I'm exercising a lot. However, I am the second lightest girl on the team, and think I should probably gain some weight. My nutritionist has me on a new plan, which I was originally excited to start, but now I am not so sure. I'm pretty sure I'm eating around 4500 calories a day or more! (pretty sure because my nutritionist has forbidden me to count lol) Is this too much?? It feels like it! Just today I have eaten 800 calories in nuts, alone! That doesn't include my meals and the relax of my snacks! I am very scared that this is too much food, too quick. What do you think?

Resolved Question: I can't find a book I once read.?
Internet! I need your help, I need to find a book I read once upon a time. I don't remember the title, but I'm pretty sure it was a series of books. They were about sending people off planet in a boat, deep snooze, new earth like planet, to continue on the human race because earth was coming to an end. The main character had a pal who's nick name was Mo'Steel. And Mo couldn't remember if it stood for More Steel or Man-of-Steel, I remember that was mention briefly in the first book. He did extreme sports, lots of injuries, etc. Another person was a pregnant marine? I think, not sure if marine or what, but she was there, cosmic radiation ended turning her baby into some nice of melded on to her mind controlling thing I think.
