I haven't had my period since the end of January, and it's now April. I haven't had sex, but have done other risky things, so I don't neccessarily think that I'm preganant, but I'm still a little worried about that. I'm also worried about this not being healthy. I did come down with mono about 3 weeks ago, but I still had my apetite so I didn't really lose any weight. Any help as to what could be going on with my body would be very appreciated :] (link)

You will need to go see a doctor regardless, to rule out pregnancy completely I would take a pregnancy test. Most times something like this is caused by stress and (when not pregnant)by being sick this can always have an effect on your body so I would go see a doctor and find out whats going on. (usually they put you on birth control to regulate your period) Hope I helped.

I got a Canon Digital Rebel XTi Camera for my birthday.
My mother LOVES taking photos.(We took SEVENTY for Easter alone.) Well, honestly, resizing these take forever,. I mean, it takes a WHILE.
Is there anywhere where I can resize a mass of photos at once, (imageshack is slow and you can only resize one.)
Or, is there a way to make my camera take smaller photos? My previous camera had this setting, and I can't find it on my new one. The pictures are approx. 3800 x 2500. that's humongoussss. (link)

My boyfriend bought me a rebel for Valentines day I was excited and yes there is a setting on the camera and its pointless to have the setting so high unless your going to make posters I would suggest the smallest if all your doing is putting it on the internet.
Turn the camera on
Then hit menu
Then hit quality its the first option under the camera 1
It probably has a picture of a hill with an L Change this to the hill with the S on it but don't hit the option that looks like stairs it messes up the picture quality too much if you have any more questions feel free to email me at Mareesey@gmail.com
Hope this helped
Also you can download a free copy of Photoshop its good to use for resizing but when the trial expires your screwed.

For a few years now, I have suffered from paranoia. It has been controlling my life, and it is annoying. Some examples are:
1. I am terrified of germs. If I leave a water bottle in my room even for 5 minutes, and I come back to get a sip, I wont drink it- in fear that someone else has sipped out of it. This even happens when I am home alone.
2. At night, I wake up and go to the door and turn the knob twelve times, and then I push the lock back and forth for one minute.
There are also other odd things I do, but that is beside the point. I was wondering, is it paranoia? How can I control it, so it does not control me? (link)

My grandmother has OCD with germs. She washes doorknobs and then thinks her hands are dirty after she has touched them if she touches any portion of her food with her hand she will eat around that part and then throw it out. Wikipedia defines OCD as:
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a psychiatric anxiety disorder most commonly characterized by a subject's obsessive, distressing, intrusive thoughts and related compulsions (tasks or "rituals") which attempt to neutralize the obsessions.
You may or may not have this though it sounds about right the ticks you have are the germ thing and then you have the ritual with the knob. If seen where people wont go into a room without walking in and out a certain number of times, and if they mess up they start all over. I would definitely talk to parents about seeing a doctor(if under 18) these things can be controlled so that they don't control you :) hope this helped.

**Sorry, I didn't know what what category to put this in.**
My hair is getting a lot of split ends and is frizzy.
I want my hair to be smooth, soft, shiny, and most importantly healthy.
How do I do that? Any good shampoos conditions, and other hair products that will help keep it healthy and shiny?
**Thanks very much in advance.** (link)

Have you heard of sally's beauty supply? They have a lot of the stuff the salons carry and not for too bad a price. The best stuff is expensive you should look for the one that is specifically for hair like yours. Also don't use Pantiene its not good for your hair it has a lot of wax in it to make your hair look shiny but it does nothing for your hair.

Ok so there's this thing called teh contour and like you strap it around your waiste and it uses like something that makes your muscles contract so then it's like your doing a sit up and side sit ups and sutff like that all at the same time i just wanted to know if any of you have used it if so does it work? (link)

I had a friend who used it and it didn't work (for him, maybe he didn't exercise with it) and also if you don't but the gel on the thing it hurts really bad.

hi. i am in fact 13/f.
i have such a big bladder problem.
Like i have accidents sometimes.
my mom treats me like such a little kid because of it. She makes me wear pull ups every night!
embarrasing. =|
is there something i can tell her to stop me from having to wear these things.
i swear she thinks i'm like 3.
and i can't ever have a sleepover at my house.
gosh. (link)

Don't worry your bladder will get bigger and then you will be able to do all those things talk to your mom if you haven't already talked to a doctor to see if there are any other solutions. My brother had a small bladder and he grew out of that phaze in junior high. Lots of teens your age have problems like that so its not just you. Tell your mom about the respect thing and tell her what you've told us. Also ive heard that there are night diapers for older kids that are supposed to be invisible (you can't see them under the clothes)You might check it out and see if there are some different ones you could get so that you could have a sleep over.

Ok, so lately i've been really interested in rune stones. The symbols, the predictions, all of it. Now, I'd really love to learn how to predict with them and make a connection with my stones. I have a few questions;
1. For those who have them, what was your "connection" to them like?
2. Is this some type of religion? My aunt says it is, but i'm not sure...
3. How exactly are you supposed to "predict" with them. I know you won't be able to see into the future, but how do you set them up and whatnot?
4. What are some easy ways to memorize the Elder Futhark rune symbols and their meanings?
Thanks so much! I can't wait to finish making mine! (link)

Its not a religion they use them more like oracles. Have you heard of wigi boards? They have the same concept. With memorizing the symbols I would just print up the symbols and the meanings and the more you use your runes the sooner you will memorize what they mean.
This is what I found on how to "cast"them:
Find a suitable place to do the reading. You do not want to be disturbed. Try to sit facing North if possible, the direction of the Gods in Norse mythology. Place a small white cloth on the surface in front of you. You work with the runes on this cloth. This cloth protects them from getting dirty and also forms the boundary for the casting.
Carefully form a question in your mind. Take your time doing this, as it is very important that you do not change the question midway through the reading. Once you have the question firmly fixed in your mind begin to gently mix the runes in their bag or container. Continue to mix the runes until you feel compelled to take up certain rune lots. (This is why it is important that the rune lots be of the same shape and size: so that you can't identify each rune by shape.)
Continue to stir and select lots until you have the correct number of runes in front of you for the layout you will be using. Keep track of the order in which the runes were pulled, laying them in their proper position in the layout as you pull them. You can use any Tarot layout, or one of the methods described below.
Runes are oracles, and oracles are often obscure. Each rune can mean many different things. It is up to the runecaster to decide how these meanings apply to the question at hand. You may get even deeper interpretations through your own "gut" reactions to the rune's definition. However, don't delude yourself in thinking that you have a completely different understanding of the cast than indicated by the traditional interpretations. Stick to the recognized interpretations, but learn to expand on their meanings through insight and meditation.

So one of my best friends has a boyfriend, and i like him alot. not just a crush. i like him ATON, i almost want to cry when i see them together, and i almost for sure know he doesnt like me that way. but i just cant help but like him. should i tell him i like him? should i tell her? or should i just keep it a secret from everybody?
this isnt something i cant get over, i like him too much for that.
P.S were kinda friends.me and him i mean. (link)

Its not just about you and him your friends feelings are at stake too. Boys will come and go but best friends will be there for you to the end. Don't get me wrong im not putting your feelings down, just sit back and let things play out. Crushes can be hard especially if they are someone elses boyfriends.

I was watching "True Hollywood Story" on Laci Peterson and could not finish watching and now I'm curious. If a man killed a woman who was pregnant but he did not know that the woman he killed was pregnant, would he be still accounted for double murder or a single murder? (link)
| |
When a woman is 5 months along most people consider it a baby because the sex is determined (well you can tell if its a male or a female)at that point not a fetus. It depends on the judge and the jury. Though either way they are going to look at the fact that a pregnant woman was killed.

i have barely any pimples at all i mostly just get them around where i part my hair because i always touch my bangs and it gets greasy from my fingers always touching... i use proactiv and it works amazingly but its kind of expensive just to get rid of those few pimples... does anyone know anything else that works really well thats maybe a little cheaper? (link)

I work at a Drug store and the best thing we have is proactive. Most of everything else drys your face out really bad though you might try the neutrogena acne wash for your face and try to keep your fingers of your skin.

i'm a senior in high school, and recently, my periods have been getting increasingly worse and worse. i started friday, and passed out at school in the hallway. they said my blood sugar was low since i hadn't eaten breakfast or anything (it was around 11 a.m.), but i never eat breakfast and this didn't happen until three months or so ago. i get horrible cramps, to the point where i don't even want to get up from sitting. i've come very close to passing out twice before on the first few days of my period, as well. so i really would like to ask my mom about birth control for the sake of control my period's awful pains, and i know one of my friends is on it for the same thing. but how do i know if these symptoms are enough to be put on it? are these symptoms normal, something that most girls go through, or just a few? what birth controls are out there that would help my situation? thanks in advance. (link)

Periods vary from woman to woman and they also change if you have added stress in your life. The best thing to do whether they put you on it or not would be to see a gyn. They will check you out and ask you all the questions about whats been going on and then from the sounds of it they will probably put you on birth control. Birth control helps make your periods shorter lighter and cramps so much better (know this from personal experience). The passing out ive never heard of but id definitely mention it to your mother and ask when you go see a gyn. Its weird to ask your mom about that sort of thing but its miserable being in pain like that and im sure she will agree and see things from your view. Also there are many kinds of birth control they can tell you what type is right for you and even then its trial and error they all have different dosages and you may get put on one and then changed to another
