  1. So for my weight training class the teacher told us to innovate and find new ways to add weight training into your lifestyle... While ten pounds on each wrist or ankle may not sound too bad it really hurts so I lowered it to 6 pounds and i'm doing better now but my back is strained. I originally wanted to have weighted equipment because of all the anime shows that showed Rock Lee and Goku having immediate powerups after removing their weight equips, so I thought WHY NOT ME? Long story short I'm at home with these babies As far as strength goes, I'm not exactly sure as to how weighted clothing would make it weaker. I would think that it should make you stronger, seeing as how if you throw a punch with a lot of weight, your punch should be stronger than it would be if you had less weight. 20 pound weights for the wrists and ankles 10 pounds on each side, Valeo AW20 Adjustable Ankle / Wrist Weights (10-Pounds Each, 20-Pound Total) Who here has experience with weighted clothing accessories? Because I want to work out at the gym and while doing normal everyday activities The use of weighted clothing would most certainly limit both agility and mobility, seeing as how you are carrying a great deal of weight. On the other hand, with weighted clothing, maybe your punches won't come out as fast, and the end result is that it wouldn't pack the full force it would've had if you were to be free of all that excess weight. Here's my conversation with my friend that has weighted ankle things The weight pushes you further into using your full and complete strength because it's harder when wearing it! I'm going to be wearing my ankle things at school and underneath my jeans most of the time! Now that my jeans are on I can barely see my weights but the wrist weights really suck I recommend none of you get them, the bags of sand fell out and spilled on the floor. weightlifting is not only good at your age, but more kids should start doing it. I started weightlifting young, and only good things come from it. the fire and doom and gloom is all over and now I can ejoy the usage and application of my weights where-ever I go people watch me and say stuff like is that dude wearing a ring around his ankle wtf?? What should I wear so people can't see my 10 lb ankle weights that clearly!? Maybe it is because weighted clothing strains body and people who uses those clothes cant use their full power or something like that.. A friend of mine has been lifting since he was nine and he's fifteen and just as tall as me about 5'9. I'm sure you've all heard this before, but really dont push yourself. I started weight training class this year and I've barely grown all year, 5 credit PE required lol. Im 15 yrs old and I can do.. like a 100~120 lbs Benchpress and my lat ( for the back ) the max lbs I can do is like.. 140.. will it Affect my height growth? I started lifting at 15, and it has made a huge difference in my health, strength, and quality of life. Wasn't sure if it should go here or power level, but here goes... I was wondering why the power levels seem to be affected by clothing so much; shouldn't their speed be the only thing to increase, instead of their power in general? Does anyone know why weighted clothes seems to make such a diffference?

  4. This game is quite different from AWDS.Still very good though.>_>bI'm glad they finally improved Design Map Mode. Also, Lin is very attractive.Dusters are actually quite good, they almost equal fighters in anti-air capacities AND can attack (nearly ?) every other unit (though they only deal decent damage against infantry units) for a lower price than a fighter.Their mobility is quite great as well.Here are some things I hate about the sequal AW:Dawn of Ruin:1. The equality between COs takes away probably the one thing that made AW stand out against other war games, its more like a C&Q turn based strategy game. I like using COs that suited my style even if it was seemingly the opposite of what I should use for example I always favoured Grit instead of Drake on naval maps etc.2. Previous AW games relied on who adopted the better strategy and played off the computers weaknesses. This game however is always won by who has the most cash.3. Unbalanced AI, I have so far been attacked 4 times while my units were in forests with no enemy unit in sight, so i figure they got a second flare gun but no, I won by killing all their units and only 1 gun which was more or less within the first 5 turns.4. Spam-ability of the AI is beyond belief, if you get any where close to their Hq they pump out a bizillion mechs. Secondly if you produce even 1 air unit brace yourself for the largest accumulation of aa guns you have ever seen on 1 map.5. Level design, while most levels are ok in theory, in practice they are horrible. You are given at the most 2 factories that are in the most retarded locations or as far away from the enemy HQ as possible so that you have to have a long transport line which will get destroyed by a CO bomber or will get overpowered by mech swarms and result in a stalemate, unless you have more money as mentioned above.6. Bland COs, they are totally devoid of all character,7. MOST important, I like a WAR game not some stupid whack-a-mole kill off Stolos' experiments. I just want army on army not army on army+some stupid-gigantic-shooting-tower-plane thing. every other mission you have to hammer one of his 'toys'8. Over complication, especially with regards to naval combat,yes I realise that previous naval combat had its flaws however its ridiculously over complicated with too many units, (maybe arguable since I was not a big fan of naval combat)9. Defence took such a huge nerf in this game its not even worth the bother of actively attacking from woods or cities out side of FOW because you gain barely any advantage. everything is too strong attacking which leads to less strategic placement and more of who rushes who first.DISCLAIMERThis game IS fun. I will not deny that fact, but It remains that I feel they have strayed from what was a winning formula and its hasn't turned out all that well in comparison. The AI is smarter which is good and the story is arguably better, and there are not a million and one COs which gives you more time to know them (also bad because they are so bland)The developers deserve a lot of credit its a well made game without bugs (maybe FOW) just a little too different for my tastes.There's some story in here. Not as much as Fire Emblem, but more than previous AW games. My only gripe is that there was a LOT that they didn't go deep into. For example, Isabella hardly gets any characterization or development with Will. So yeah, I just wish it were longer, but considering it isn't an SRPG, it's still fine.God I wish lash would be in every AW game :PHow do I edit the title to say:I just finished AWDS, playing the sequel now*
  5. I have a half-brother that I hate with every fiber in my being. He's a smoker and a bastard and he drinks, and he just sits around in my house all day stinking up the *BLEEP*ing joint, but I try not to judge. His life is in shambles now so I just try to ignore him, all people are good on the inside. There are so many freakin' smokers at my school, I want to report them all and here's how I feel... That person who just lit a smoke? He's just having a bad day. I'll hence try not to get pissed off and superkick him square in the jaw and go berserk him because he has a horrible addiction. Hit on the girl I like will you? I won't throw my huge-*bottom* backpack at you. I won't throw a fit and bash your head into the wall. I won't take my chair and bash it through your skull. I'll just be the good person that I am, and let you suffer in your lonely pit, and hope that you can quit your addiction.
  6. mood killers galore at high school high school BS, hierarchy, love triangles, etc etc etc I hate these things and I suffer from them So I'm a smart kid at my school that girls like but nobody will ask me out because I hang out with the un-cool crowd.. If you were in my situation would you deal with the BS and stick with your friends or wander out into higher social groups just to get some girls The pressure of high school is immense. Nothing compared to college or a job, I am sure, but it still has it?s pressures and hardships and responsibilities. And it is so much fun anway. I mean, one minute, I am stressing over my Algebra 2 exam that I most certainly failed. I still have homework to do afterschool but I always find myself worrying about how i'm viewed and stuff, I just want to open up and be Reekun, you know? I don't mean to suggest they do this consciously. Like someone can be the hottest guy in school, smart as a dime, fit as a fiddle, and yet still be unpopular as all heck. If he's the funniest guy in the class the jocks will still ignore him. The cheerleaders will still ignore him and go for the jock with no personality. Nerds would find their unpopularity more bearable if it merely caused them to be ignored. Unfortunately, to be unpopular in school is to be actively persecuted. The brains of high schoolers do not develop for empathy unless they have been through hell and back, and what will they do if their futures are at stake? For example, this jock was picking on my friend and I reported him anonymously and got him suspended for 3 days. Take that Mark. I would like to publicly announce that love triangles in high school are gay. Happiness before high school drama!!!
  7. I don't think that society as a whole will be destroyed, but it is falteringPeople will pick fights and troll everywhere just for the thrill, the hang of it. - random kid because it doesnt look like a game for losers w/ ugly characters because its free and no monthly charge FREE FOR LIFE NOT A FREE TRIAL and thats all i can think of now I mean I just got PM'd on a forum and I was called an atheist jew. (lol paradox) Does anyone else see the problem with that? What are your favorite community moments? I believe that life as a whole, the internet community is a backbone of what the reason the real world will become soon someday and if this phenomenon will continue to happen then we will see the real life community become bitter trolls!
  8. I don't think that there can be instant-transmission going on ALA DBZ style, the gift would have to be genetic like the jumper clan from the movie. For example, teleportation would make someone much too powerful, like instant transmission allowed Goku to completely WTFPWN Metal Cooler in the movie, too bad there were thousands upon thousands of metal coolers. The DBZ gang are one of the strongest ever. Another strong character would be Ichigo from Bleach. The reason the DBZ gang are the strongest is because not only can someone instant transmission teleport, but they're fast enough to be like teleporting! If a person were to be able to teleport they would be unstoppable. Unless like Nightcrawler from x-men they could teleport themselves inside a wall and be lost forever. I do think it's possible for people to move fast enough to be like teleporting, like what Jumpers do, but they don't actually teleport, their body just moves past the time-continuum mainframe. I think we should leave teleportation to imagination, maybe time traveling?
  9. Yeah any pokemon will do I bought a new domain name i'm testing the HTML out for now I used the favicon generator and I made a ludicolo shortcut icon ty bro.
  10. this is as of 3:00 so the ending doesn't really apply anymoreOkay, it started this morning when one of her friends wrote me a note asking if I decided who my Valentine would be. I said I'm not sure I'd have one because there's a senior that might already ask her. She asked me if the girl was in this class, and I said yeah, she was 4 feet away. She guessed Christina, and I said she was right. She wrote back, "omg that's soooooo cute!" but then Christina, who was 4 feet away got interested and asked what we were writing about. There were also some guys who wanted to get the note and everything, realizing it was something important So after 1st period in the hall with her, she kept saying like, "tell me tell me tell me tell me tell me!!!!" and she wouldn't leave me alone. I couldn't tell if she was serious or not because she was smiling at me all day, but I knew that she was curious. We went through 2nd period the same way, except her best friend got involved. After 2nd period, Christina, her best friend, and I were walking down the hallway and I asked her best friend if she sort of knew what I was keeping secretshe said she thinks so, so I said I would give her a hint, and I put my arm almost completely around Christina's shoulder and was like, "You look REALLY nice today" (in a joking manner, unfortunately), and she was like, "thanks! But you're still gonna tell me!" but her best friend understood, even though Christina was seemingly oblivious. So, at lunch, I talked to her best friend, and asked what my chances were with her. She was like, "Do you want the hard truth?" And I was like, "Ok, hurt me." She said my chances were slim to none. It's because that guy in her church (who apparently is the GNARFARD I thought went to my school, guess only 1 guy likes her) has been liking her for almost 2 years now, and she's actually likes him A LOT (I venture to say loved) him for almost a year now, and she's hoping that Justin is gonna ask her out. Good news: He's 17, and he's moving out this year, and the only time she sees him is at church. Also, she doesn't really talk about me much when I'm not around, and her best friend said there's no real signs that she likes me more than just a friend. Not sure if this is for better or for worse, but I made her best friend feel REALLY guilty about it, and now she's one of the many friends who are helping me in my endeavor. Now I'm getting tips from her closest friend, which is a big up. I even got her cell phone number this afternoon. Anyways, it's a 100% thing now that I can't say I like her on/before V-day, that's what her best friend said, with many "sorry"s at the end. So, she's suggesting I give her something anonymous, and for her to deliver it, saying someone else might like you, to keep her guessing. I can either build up my relationship with her at a steady rate and wait till my sophomore year (which is VERY unlikely), or start taking action fast (I'll prolly do this one) and pray and pray and pray that she'll notice me. If I keep it like that, the only 2 things I have to worry about is 1. this Gnarfard Guy, and 2. my patience Oh, and a temporary problem is that she still wants to know what was on the note, and I can't tell her that I like her, that would ruin her whole perspective of me. Gnarfard = censored guys namety.
  11. Ok i'm done with the favicon generator I have a ludicolo icon for my shortcut now!Shortcut icon ludicolo? Or breloom would be better?Now adults have no immediate use for teenagers. They would be in the way in an office. So they drop them off at school on their way to work, much as they might drop the dog off at a kennel if they were going away for the weekend.I feel so bad about school life nowOr is this not the place to discuss itAnyways thanks for viewing my thread...Is there any way to make a favicon generator for my site?

  14. I consider golden sun 1 to be the best.It has a very interesting plot. I haven't bought the second one yet and I don't want to play the rom. I forgot the other very good RPG I have : Phantasy Star Collection. Port from the old good systems by SEGA! all the Megaman Battle Network games were quite excellent, even though Im still waiting for a white version lv. 4 chip..... especially version 6 falzar I would have to say lufia ruins of lore and golden sun as my final choices

  17. If I remember correctly, ToS is actuall considered the worst of the series in Japan. Hah ToS is the biggest Tales of... hit in the United States! the sales were incredible because the GC was lacking RPGs... I have: Tales of Symphonia (GC) Tales of Phantasia (GBA) I'm waiting for Tales of Symph 2 for the Wii! The battle system of Tales games is amazing Dhaos was the best anti-villain... -- I started looking over my cube games and wondered why ToS was such an awesome game. Sure I love the combat in the tales series but this one did something to me to make me beat it back when i played and finished the game. So I decided to play it again after all these years just to see what made this game so great... and there it was, i found the reason. This game has the ability to stir my emotions or feelings towards enemy and friendly characters. Such as when i started playing the game I really hated the Desians and wanted nothing to but kill as many of them as possible. Because of these kinds of emotions the game brought out in me it kept me playing it for over 50 hours. The combat for the most part was just a bonus to me. imo, Dhaos is the coolest villain in the tales series but the characters and bosses of Tales of Symphonia were cooler..
  18. I'm really excited for this game.You don't play as Dante now in this sequal you play as Nero sons of sparta UNITE! dyslexics UNTIE! As a 360 owner, i'm psyched because it's the first DMC to grace my console 'cause i've never had any playstation variant in my whole entire gaming career It comes out in like a week I already preordered it at familyvideo! 5 dollars off Capcom has just announced that over 1.5 million downloads of the DMC4 demo have occured, the game will MURDER Turok." Announcing a successful rate of demo downloads is just another way of advertising a game, you dope. If someone reads that this game is very popular, they may download the demo too and become interested in the game. What I don't want from DMC 3 is when the rocket riding with Dante going whoooo! every 2 seconds. I was so embarrassed by that scene... -.-
  19. Gummie Bears are a classic. They are really good, although don't go looking for an overly sweet candy in these little things. Also, I think the soft, almost clear ones are the only ones worth your time. The tough ones are what give Bears a bad rep, they truly are disgusting. However, once you find the right brand, they're a delight. The pineapple (clear) and the cherry (red) ones are by far superior to the other colours...and every package always lacks pineapple!!! I love gummi bears. Clear and red are the best ones. Haribo gummis are STALE, stiff and not good. Just about any other brand will do you if you want them to be soft, smooshy and good. Gummy Bears are the greatest I love them. What can you say they are just good. If you have to have the sugar free go easy as they can do a number on your digestive tract and that is putting it nicely. I love gummy bears, they're great so long as they're not stale. I get embarassed when I eat them though
  20. I don't know why I just really hate people that hat the online rpg runescape. Oh wait I do know why! What level were you when you were playing Runescape, "james_666"? level 3? Did you even get off tutorial island? Were you turned off by the graphics without even finished the tutorial? EVERYWHERE I go on these internets there's just whiners complaining about the graphics of Runescape. There's more to Runescape than just graphics. The depth of Runescape's market, economy, quests, items, skills, etc is a THOUSANDFOLD more diverse than WoW, Guild Wars, Maple Story and Diablo II combined. I'm a level 117 on Runescape. I'd post screenies but there's no such thing as girls, hot people, or pro players online by default internet lingo.
  21. I don't think flirting is ok if you're in a relationship with someone. It breaks all trust and boundaries between the two of you, and could cause unneeded tension/friction leading to a breakup. What my lady friends tell me is "What he won't know won't hurt him..." But when a guy does it he's automatically labeled as an evil little man void of any trust applicable to him...
  22. It's just when I see her pics with the new man and stuff it gets to me. Breaking up is not an easy thing to do and It's well worth thinking long and hard before you do so, then think some more. Well it seems to me like she was the one with the relationship issues and broke up with you... so it's normal to feel used or betrayed because you're not the one who wanted to terminate the relationship. I think all relationships should be kept running until both members of the party are accepting and won't be dependant on each other anymore and after they have drifted apart far enough. The feeling will go away eventually, good luck!
  23. Well in supernatural if you still have ashes left over they have to be burned in a ritual before the evil spirit would disappear. Like in Supernatural the brothers seek out and combat paranormal and supernatural events to figure the meaning linking their mother's death and they find out all these demons and events are linked to it Like the yellow-eyed devil and whatnot After the death of Mary the kids was trained by John to hunt and kill all demons and devils but later it is revealed that even the hunters of spirits don't know where they go in the afterlife! Like there was this episode called Death in the Water: Dean comes across a mysterious drowning victim in the newspaper. Upon further research they soon discover more people who have drowned in the same lake, but their bodies were never found. When the boys show up in town they befriend a boy whose father has drowned. The brothers come to believe the lake is haunted by a spirit. The spirits never left... Because they had unfinished business to take care of. Supernatural also has a unique view on supernatural spirits because they can possess you Sam and Dean investigate a mysterious asylum that has a history with abuse in one episode, but an evil force inside causes Sam to lose his sanity and turn on his brother. Supernatural delivers an unique view on spirits and afterlife.

    Lazy Eye

    When I was a young child... Even a baby my parents used to be concerned about the fact that one of my eyes used to actually move far enough that when I looked around you couldn't see it anymore...She took me to doctor after doctor and all she was told was that I had a lazy eye and it would correct itself.. The doctor told my mother and father that I had a rare disorder called Duane Syndrome... The definition of this syndrome is it is a congenital eye disorder of the eye movements... I don't have full peripheral vision but what exercises I do is that I found out that long-term suppression of the blurry eye causes vision to stop developing. have you seen an eye care specialist? My doctor makes me wear an eyepatch I wish you the best of luck ~ Reekun!
  25. Believe me I take from experience that the sensation urge never goes away. You always want to cut, I've quit for about 4 years now I get the urge to cut every single minute that passes by. She'll want medical attention immediately, I see my psychiatrist every week, she helps me with my self-esteem and emotional problems. If she has set her mind that she wants to be 'emo' and nothing can stop her. I had to see the light that cutting was wrong and evolve to change and better myself. She also has to.
