can you get an std from giving a guy a hj?
because i read something on a site that said that you can get hpv from skin to skin contact. please make sure you have facts before you answer because i REALLY dont wanna get an std.

No, you can't get STDs through your hands. But you might if you then touched your eyes or mouth, or any other mucus membrane.

I got my first period at age 12 and had them regularly until I was about 17. Then I started skipping periods. I figured it was because I was stressed or losing weight but it hasn't stopped. Sometime I get them regularly and then other times I skip a few months.
Right now, I haven't had a period since October.
Also, my breasts are uneven. I know a lot of women don't having matching boobs but one of mine is a C and the other is a B. It's very noticable, especially in the summer.
Also, I have a tendency to feel cold all the time and I have a hard time trying to maintain my weight considering I work out several times a week and my family has pretty good metabolism.
Sounds like hypothyroidism, right? Nope. I've tried two different doctors who have figured that's what it was and run blood tests but it has come out negative.
Does anybody have any idea what else this could be? I've taken a look at Polycystic ovary syndrome but I know a few friends who have it and they aren't anything like me but the two doctors have never brought it up.

It sounds to me like triple X syndrome:

I'm not a doctor, though, and that's who you should really really talk to.

13/f. who has ever smelt or has one i need help. www.smencils.com we got thoes there realy strong. we got like high on them. are they bad when you smell then an hour straight we got like seriously 'out of it' lost like 'woo hoo'. can barely walk. my bff has been abused with drugs so shes used to it she says thats how it feels when your high. since then my head huuuurts. is it or whats wrong.

The smell component of those is just scented oils. It shouldn't make you high, and there's nothing harmful about them. It was probably from something else, or only in your mind.

Ok today in science we got a worksheet with wave lenght problems . . .well i figured out the answers but for 2 of the problems im not sure what the units would be, can anyone help me out on that the problems are

1- I have to use the equation v=d/t and i had to find d, what would be the unit for distance??

2- I used the same equation but had to find t, what would be the unit for time??


THANK YOU!

velocity(meters per second)=distance(meters)/time(seconds)

velocity is measured in meters per second
m/s
meters/second
meters divided by second
velocity= meters divided by seconds

so i converted some short clips to 3gp. and i transfered them to my phone via san disk. and when i look it up in my phone flix i see it there but when i press ok to play it says video clips is not available. I have an LG VX9800 (the V) thanks to anyone that can help.

That phone might not be able to play video like that. I looked at it's specifications, and while it can *store* video, it doesn't say it can *play* video, outside of vcast. You should contact LG's tech support or read the manual.

hi, i'm a fourteen year old female
& i'd like to know what's a healthy amout of calories i should eat in a day
not really to lose weight, but be more healthy
thanks :]

http://www.mypyramid.gov/mypyramid/index.aspx will give you the healthy amount. It's a lot lower than the average, so don't be worried if you're above it.

ok so im trying to loose 20-30 pounds but im like always hungry! and it seems that the only food that makes me full is junk food. so i was wondering if anyone knows of some HEALTHY food that fills you up. thank you :]

A great way to not be hungry is to make snow cones without flavoring using a snow cone maker or blender. It'll help curb your appetite, and it's just water, so it's healthy.

Apparently, the U.S. has always had a soft spot for Saudi Arabia since they depend on their oil but is this all post-911 or were there significant events going on behind the backdrop prior to 1990? I know they were allies in the Gulf Wars but other than that, is there anything else to go on? Pretty much all I see right now is the U.S. flying out all the Saudi's in September of 01. I can't see any other obvious bias.

Hey. Just yesterday my average feedback rating was a 4.79. Today it has gone down to a 4.76 but I don't understand why because my three newest feedbacks were all 5's. Does anyone know why this would happen because I'm probably missing something. Thanks so much in advance =).

Your average is for the month. So good scores are cut off every day, lowering your average. So if you have these scores:
5
4
4
5-29 days ago
5-29 days ago
the average will be 4.6. The next day the two last ones will be gone, and your score will be 4.3; it doesn't matter that you just got a 5.

you know how you can browse through files and make one of your pictures your backround? well you know how then it shows up on your list? lol how do u get it off?

Simply stop using it and it will leave the list. However, it will never leave the list if it is anywhere in "my pictures". If it's in "my pictures" just move it somewhere else and it will leave the list.

I'm a teenager who was raised Catholic but now I'm like agnostic or atheist or something.

I don't really believe there was a guy named jesus who died for everyone's sins. i really do not believe that. so how can i call myself a christian?

i do not agree with the christian ideals on premarital sex. i lust all the time- so i don't want a religion that prevents lusting.
i also masturbate. i'm not going to stop it for some higher power that isn't even real.


what should i do? i don't believe anything.


i don't want to be a Christian. I never really was one in the first place.

Spend some time deciding what you actually believe. Then look for a compatible religion. There are Abrahamic religions that believe in the Christian god but not jesus. Churches like the unitarian universalists will let you join no matter what you believe. After you decide what you believe(it's important to do that first), take a look at:
http://www.religioustolerance.org and choose your religion.

Don't mind the person below me. If the Muslims are right, she'll BURN IN HELL with you. And if the Bhudhists are right you'll both BURN IN NARAKA. There's no proof of any one true religion, so it's pointless to worry about it. But she's correct in that you can't call yourself a CHRISTian if you don't believe in CHRIST; it's central to the religion.

I know a fair bit about all the major religions, and I would enjoy answering your questions if you have them.

has anybody ordered anything off of www.fashion-luxury.com ? i want to know if it's trustworthy and reliable. thanks!

Don't buy anything off that site. It's almost certainly a scam. If you would wire-transfer your money to china, as they request, nothing stops them from just taking it. Wire transfer is the same as giving them cash, it isn't as safe as credit cards. If you bought anything from them, report it to the FTC and they'll help you get your money back.

okay...well the thing is that I'm real tight on money..I seriously only have a five dollar bill to my name..that's it, and my parents can't help that fact because they're on social security. I went to basically everybusiness in town and twenty miles out, but no one is hiring or they don't allow a job without experience. And no one needs house cleaners or babysitters..
In May, I will be attending Camp Wonderland to volunteer as a counselor all summer long..and I really need some money to get up there and some spending money.
Is there a job that I can do online for someone? Or something of that type? Like writing articles? I'm just so desperate.

http://entrepreneurs.about.com/od/homebasedbusiness/a/makemoneyonline.htm
There are online surveys that you can be paid for, but you don't make much with those 20/month max. You can play multiplayer games at moola.com(very hard) and win money, at no cost to you; email me if you want a beta invite. Most malls have job openings not listed in the papers, so check there.

i have some pictures on my computer that i was to get rid of completly. i deleted them and then emptied my recycle bin. does that mean there completly gone? if not how do i delete them?

Depends on how long ago you deleted it. The longer the files are deleted, the more they corrupt. Download recuva here:
http://www.recuva.com/download
install it. Run it and scan your main disk. Most of the files it finds will be junk; old system and temp files. Find the one you want and check the box to the left. Press recover. If you're lucky, the file will be where you save it, intact. If it's been more than a few days, the file will probably be corrupted; if it's a text file it will have missing text, if its an image or video, parts will be missing. Sometimes it won't even run. In that case, you'd have to take the computer to a recovery specialist, and that costs big bucks.

"Most guys prefer completeley shaved," if not, will they find it gross? Or how about just a little bit of hair?

Less is better. Some guys will think it's gross, most will just see it as a slight turn off.

ActualKeylogger is being automatically deleted by symantec, how do I stop that. Also, is that a good keylogger?

-theymos
(this question was in my inbox, but I put it off for too long and was autodeleted. I hope the asker reads this.)

ActualKeylogger is a fine keylogger; it's safe and will work good. In symantec there should be an "exception" or "allow" list, add the program to that. There might also be a setting to "force user input"(or similar). That might give you the option to ignore instead of delete when it finds the file. If that doesn't work you can either disable it while you use the keylogger, or use a different keylogger. A search for:
only search advicenators.com

will get you some good ones. My favorite is:
http://www.free-keylogger.com/

is it safe buying things online? Probably not but there's no good stuff where I live and they're all in the net and it's so tempting..

It's usually safe. But only if you have up to date security, see my guide:
http://www.advicenators.com/talkaboutmetopic.php?t=126&userboard_id=38985
Also, sites should be encrypted and be verified with a digital certificate. Most browser will warn you if the certificate is bad.

is there a website that you can enter your age, weight, height, etc. and it will give you a diet and excercise plan for weight loss? if so, can you give me the link? thanks!

I just finished making such a site. No guarantees it's accurate, I'm still ironing out the wrinkles:
http://www.geocities.com.nyud.net:8080/theymos/test.html
You should ignore the "minutes per exercise" part, that's inaccurate. But it should give you an accurate optimal weight, a goal for calorie consumption, and an idea of how many calories you should burn. If you don't like mine you can try this one:
