what is your opinion on the 4 bases?
i know the 3 bases
First base = kissing, including open-mouth (French) kissing
Second base = petting above the waist, including touching, feeling, and fondling the chest, breasts, and nipples
Third base = petting and/or orally stimulating below the waist, including touching, feeling, and fondling the vagina, clitoris, penis, and testicles
Home run = sexual intercourse

but what i really wanted to know is what age is appropriate for each base? assuming that they have been "going out" for a while.

would you say that:
base 1 – 11/12 and up
base 2 – 13/14 and up
base 3 – 14/15 and up
homerun – 16/17 and up
??? yes? no?

I’m 14 and i think that’s about how it happens. I know 11/12 seems young but that’s how it is and people need to realize it’s not gonna change anytime soon.

No…Kissing at 11 is too young
Fondling at 13 is way too young
Oral sex at 14 ARE YOU KIDDING ME………NO

I think when it comes down to it, you do all of the above when you feel it’s right. There are some that will do certain bases too early, but they’ll learn from it.
I had sex for the first time when I was 15. I’m 21 now and I’m studying in my final year at the top University in my country.

i dont think there is a set age for anything… i think it more has to do with level of maturity and age really has nothing to do with that. everyone matures at their own pace…

Its personal to everyone. You should do these things when you are ready and have found the right person, not because youre a certain age. Some people don’t kiss until theyre almost 20 and some people don’t have sex until theyre married. Its not a competition or necessary to do this stuff at certain ages. Just relax and wait for someone you really want to share these special experiences with. Its so much better with the right person!
Kay | Feb 04, 2010

Nobody cares what I think. I’m guessing you’re 14-16 years old and asking this question because you’re looking for someone to tell you it’s okay to have sex.

Either way…

I’ve never met anyone in high school who is mature enough to handle a sexual relationship.

You can’t necessarily put an age on it, but I would encourage you to wait until a time when you are going to be safe and responsible about it. Don’t do it because you’re horny, don’t do it because all your friends are doing it, don’t do it because you think you can make the guy like you more, don’t do it just because he wants it, don’t do it because you are afraid of losing the guy. And don’t put yourself in a position where you’re going to do it while impaired by alcohol, you should have a sober friend helping prevent you from making those bad decisions.

If you do it, do it because you love him and love something more than just his looks or his body.

I don’t know why I bother to try to explain this to people… If you think I’m being lecturing to you, then know that I am a 25 y/o guy. If you want to be treated like an adult, you need to act like an adult.

40 Days and 40 Nights (2002) IMDB rating: 5.30 Plot: Nicole broke up with Matt months ago and is now engaged to someone else. He’s very good-looking and has no trouble finding other lovers, but that doesn’t help because he’s still obsessed with wanting her back. Then he gets the inspiration that swearing off sex for Lent (all forms of sexual activity, even kissing or masturbation) will give him the perspective he needs. So of course a few days later he meets a woman and they fall in love. Now Matt sees his vow as a personal matter, and won’t even tell her about it, but his friends think otherwise, and now the complications begin…

exercising and dieting and not losing weight anymore!?
Basically i started working out in November because i gained a lot of weight and was 187 and as of now im 170 (i’m 5′5-5′6). I run every morning for 30 – 40 minutes 5-6 days a week and burn 320 -600 calories. But since mid January i have stayed the same weight. Im starting to lose motivation because i am not seeing the scale change. Sometimes it will go up half a pound of a pound. And i don’t understand why, because i think im doing everything right. I also do exercises at night such as lunges, push ups, sit ups, planks etc. I still need to lose about 20-25 pounds and i don’t know how im going to do it since the scale hasn’t dropped. However, i do see/ feel my side bones on my stomach and my thighs do look a bit more toned, but my biggest problem area is still my stomach.

As you progressed, you become more fit. Now, to boost your weight loss, you must do more to see a difference. You must intensify your workout. Don’t overdo it, just work your way to more exercise.

All the scientists and food experts say targeted weight loss is not feasible, especially in the waist and belly areas, but I achieved it with colon cleanse. I acknowledge they say that pills will not work, nevertheless they definitely worked for me, and they’ve been shown on CBS News too. There is a free trial happening right now at http://suveng.fitnessfestival.info , try it out, what is the worst that could happen?
Tamia | Feb 07, 2010

---

you didn’t mention what you are doing to eat right. this may be where you need to make a change. Now your body had more tone and burns more cals at rest because you have been working out since Nov so your cal needs have changed. Primarily with more muscle tone you will need more protein. If you are running in the am just make sure you get the bulk of your carbs in the am and eat a yogurt before bed (calcium and protein burn best when sleeping). You may have more carb requirement because you are burning up your cals in exercise so just snack on carb rich snacks vs things like pasta dinner. also sometime your exercise routine needs a change. try biking instead of running every other day to switch it up and maybe one day a week try swimming for 40 mins instead of biking or running

First of all, wow! Congratulations on your weight loss! 17 pounds is really good!

Seems like your body has adapted to your training and the best way, and only, way to lose weight is to train even harder. It takes allot of motivations, I know, but seeing that you already done a really good job so far I’m sure you can do it.

The best way to ensure you that you are training hard enough is to keep track of your training and setting objectives. Let’s say you are taking the same roads every morning and doing it in about 30 minutes, you need to set yourself a goal like doing the same training but in 28 minutes. Keep a watch with you and run faster/harder when you feel like your are getting behind your objective.

I’m sure you can do it, don’t forget to eat well and to train well. Good luck!

Why won't my boyfriend stop saying it when he knows it winds me up? Do I look like noel fielding? (link fixed)?
I love my boyfriend to bits and things are going great with him so this is going to sound incredibly petty but it’s a recurrent arguement between us.

He keeps saying I look like Noel Fielding from the mighty boosh, a few people have said it before aswell and it does my head in. I say to him that he’s saying I look like a man but he says noel fielding looks like a woman so he’s not. He calls me pretty and things but if he says I look like noel fielding how can he really think i’m pretty? i’ve told him I don’t like him saying it and tried to stop him but he just laughs it off.

Is he not saying I look like a man? How do I get through to him how much it upsets me/

Here’s a pic of me do I look like noel fielding or a man?

try stopping the conversation at once whenever he makes a mention of you like that. this will definitely make him think that he has irritated you and that u r sad. elso just leave the place at once bidding him bye so as to make him realise his mistake. saw ur pic, u very much look like girl and pretty too with a beautiful smile. keep it up. and show him his way, when he disrespects your feelings. he who does not understand others feelings and who under estimates it cannot be a good human, rather not even a boyfriend. pls decide what to do. either try to take on the right path or chuck him out of your life and mind. ALL THE BEST

Guns of Navarone, The (1961) IMDB rating: 7.50 Plot: 1943. With the battle of Stalingrad turning the war against them, the Germans are attempting to bully neutral Turkey into joining the Axis; to this end they have trapped 2,000 British soldiers on Kiros, an island in the Aegean, with only one sea route for evacuation, a sea route commanded by two gigantic German antiship batteries deployed in a massive cliffside bunker on the island of Navarone. Immune to air attack and too much for Allied battleships to suppress, the British muster Keith Mallory, a commando officer who has been working on occupied Crete for nearly two years and who is an expert mountaineer, to ferry a team of British commandos to the only area of Navarone that is not monitored by the Germans, a 400-foot cliff. Greek resistance is to meet the team inland and guide them around German patrols to the area of the German guns. However, the commanding officer of the British team suffers grave injury in the climb and Mallory must take control of the mission, despite clashes with explosives expert John Anthony Miller, who upon the arrival of the night of the raid finds his equipment has been sabotaged, thus exposing a traitor in the team’s ranks.

Legend has it that only a person who is a “diamond in the rough” can retrieve the lamp from the Cave of Wonders.

rate my pokemon team 10 points best answer?
herracross: sword dance rockslide brickbreak mega horn

noctowl: phychic reflect whirlwind hypnosis

umbreon: double team shadow ball curse quick attack

lapras: surf ice beam thunderbolt confuse ray

elekid: thunder punch earthquake cross chop ice punch

cyndiquil: earthquake flamethrower sunny day fire eruption

this is not for online play just within game suggest comment and what would be better but dont comment on umbreon

It would be better if you were to play a real game instead of Pokemon.
Larin | Feb 09, 2010

---

Evolve to Typhlosion and Electivire. Not a bad team otherwise. Replace Elekids thunderpunch with a stronger electric move. An offensive flying type move would be good for Noctowl as well. Fly or Aerial Ace. Other than that, it’s pretty good. Well balanced, type wise.

Skitty Crazy | Feb 09, 2010

The pokemon you have are direct types like noctowl is only flying or lapras is only water. The most I can say is try to put some pokemon with two types in so then you can counter enemies that are strong against one of your types. I have a Gardevoir in my team (just because its awesome) and it tends to be the first to die since a. it seams like EVERY pokemon knows a dark move and b. its my only single type pokemon in my party and is easy to kill.

If this is too confusing…. I’m sorry. T.T

to me,alakasam would be a better choice than noctowl nd havin a tyranitar as 6th pokemon is also a gud choice……….. umbreon is a gud dark type pokemon but it doesn’t has any gud dark type attack like crunch etc.so better replace it wit houndom with te following attacks crunch,flamethrower,sunnyday,solarbeam………….

nd all others r perfect to smash any1………..

Dorian Gray (2009) IMDB rating: 6.80 Plot: Fresh-faced and innocent, Dorian Gray arrives in London to move into the house he has inherited. Almost immediately he falls under the influence of amoral and calculating Lord Henry Wotton, leading to a life of increasing debauchery and even violence. Through many years Gray stays as young-looking as ever, while a portrait painted when he arrived grows old, reflecting his increasing excesses. Eventually the picture, now secreted in his attic, becomes almost hideous to behold. When true love finally enters his life he realises he must guard his secret at all costs.

Quotations to learn for Dorian Gray?
Has anyone got any good quotations that are essential to learn for The Picture Dorian Gray. I have my Higher English prelim on Monday and i would be very grateful if someone could give me about 10 quotes to learn. Thank you very much.

---

Below are 11 quotes that I regard to be essential; but they are short enough to commit to memory. Needless to say, they do not capture all of the themes and nuances of the novel; however, they present key ideas.

CHAPTER 1: Basil Hallward to Lord Henry Wotten:

"…The reason I will not exhibit this picture is that I am afraid that I have shown in it the secret of my own soul."

CHAPTER 2: Lord Henry Wotton says to Dorian Gray:

"The only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it. Resist it, and your soul grows sick with longing for the things it has forbidden to itself, with desire for what its monstrous laws have made monstrous and unlawful."

CHAPTER 3: Lord Henry Wooton looks over at Mr. Eskine and says:

"Humanity takes itself too seriously. It is the world’s original sin. If the caveman had known how to laugh, history would have been different."

CHAPTER 6: Dorian Gray:

"I love Sibyl Vane. I want to place her on a pedestal of gold and to see the world worship the woman who is mine. What is marriage? An irrevocable vow. You mock at it for that. Ah! don’t mock. It is an irrevocable vow that I want to take."

CHAPTER 7: Dorian Gray:

"…The quivering ardent sunlight showed him the lines of cruelty round the mouth as clearly as if he had been looking into a mirror after he had done some dreadful thing."

CHAPTER 8: Dorian Gray:

"For there would be a real pleasure in watching it. He would be able to follow his mind into its secret places. This portrait would be to him the most magical of mirrors. As it had revealed to him his own body, so it would reveal to him his own soul."

CHAPTER 11: Dorian Gray:

"Yes: there was to be, as Lord Henry had prophesied, a new Hedonism that was to recreate life and to save it from that harsh uncomely puritanism that is having, in our own day, its curious revival."

CHAPTER 17: Lord Henry Wotton speaks to the Duchess:

"…Difference of object does not alter singleness of passion. It merely intensifies it. We can have in life but one great experience at best, and the secret of life is to reproduce that experience as often as possible."

CHAPTER 19: Lord Henry Wotton asks a question (rhetorical) of Dorian Gray:

"By the way, Dorian,’ he said after a pause, ‘what does it profit a man if he gain the whole world and lose — how does the quotation run? — his own soul?’"

CHAPTER 20: Dorian Gray:

"It had brought melancholy across his passions. Its mere memory had marred many moments of joy. It had been like conscience to him. Yes, it had been conscience. He would destroy it."

CHAPTER 20: Final lines of the novel:

When they entered, they found hanging upon the wall a splendid portrait of their master as they had last seen him, in all the wonder of his exquisite youth and beauty. Lying on the floor was a dead man, in evening dress, with a knife in his heart. He was withered, wrinkled, and loathsome of visage. It was not till they had examined the rings that they recognized who it was."

Good luck!

Cheeze?!?

If you just had her, how can you change her last name back to yours in eight months when she turns eighteen.

It sounds like either you can’t count or read a calender.

Advice. Take the hyphenated last names as the surname.

Is this a southern thing?
My husband is from Kentucky, I am from Canada, and every time I talk to his friends, family or even some businesses there nobody ever says goodbye! It kind of makes things awkward at the end of a call, and I feel empty like the conversation isn’t over. lol. I explained this to my husband and he always says goodbye now, but has anyone else noticed this? Do you say goodbye on the phone?

I ask you question. | Feb 08, 2010

---

I’m a Yankee living in the south and I have noticed this, also.

I thinks is because the people in the South are always around the same people 24/7. So, "See you later" is not part of their vocabulary because there is never an "alone time" with them.

I once asked my boss (born and raised in the south)…"How was your weekend?"

and my boss responded by saying…"As always. All my family got drunk and fell asleep and I had to drive each one of them back to their house"…

I said…"Really? Maybe next time, they’ll stay at home if they are going to get that drunk."…
