Resolved Question: Why is it bad to punch punching bags bare fist ed?

I'm 14 and weigh 51kg. I have the right heavy bag for my age and weight but not the right hand protection. The problem is I prefer punching the bag bare fisted than with boxing gloves (only type of protection I've tried.) I guess I just don't like all the padding, it feels better bare fisted. Do I need to wear protection for my hands? If so what do I use and what is the best quality brand? more

Resolved Question: Fashion help? 1960's sweater/skirt set, what hat? ?

http://cgi.ebay.com/Jane-Irwill-Vintage-1960s-Sweater-Skirt-Set-Gray-XS_W0QQitemZ160292485325QQcmdZViewItem I have a sweater/skirt set very similar to the one linked. It is powder blue and the sleeves are more of a 3/4 length, the ones in the picture seem kinda long. It was worn in 1966/1967. So, I know the time frame. Problem is, I wasn't around then, so I don't know what type of hat to wear with it. I was thinking a classic pillbox, but there are so many types of pill boxes to choose from, I still couldn't narrow it down. Could anyone help? Maybe someone who was around then? The suit has a bit of bead work on the lapels, its an iridescent white. Could I possible go with a white hat? I think blue might be hard to come by. I have the gloves originally bought for the suit. And what about shoes? White flats? Its for a photo with my newborn, well, will be newborn.

Resolved Question: Help me decide which bridal shower to give at my best friends shower...?

Vote for the one you would most like to receive!!! Cookie Cutters For a sweet ending, make several batches of homemade cookies and package them in cellophane bags. Print out the recipe (you can even type it out in Microsoft Word, print on heavy stock paper, and cut to recipe card size) and attach to the bag with ribbon along with an alphabet cookie cutter. Head to a kitchen store and buy the first initial of each guest attending the shower. It’s a perfectly personalized treat. Mix CD Yes, you’ve seen this at weddings, but here’s the chance to give it a real girl-power kick. Make a mix of your favorite getting-ready songs from ladies that rock like The Go-Gos, Gwen Stefani, and Madonna. If there’s time, make two mixes: one for the younger crowd and one for the older set (Nina Simone, Debbie Harry, and Patsy Cline). Tea Time Having a ladies' lunch? Continue the theme with colorful teacups each stuffed with a packet of tea. Take the idea one step further by creating three different packages from which guests can choose: the morning person (brightly colored mugs with English Breakfast tea); the afternoon lady (white tea cups with white or green tea); and the night owl (small espresso-style cups with chamomile). Set them out on a table with cute signs. Fortune Cookies Print a different fortune for each guest on tiny strips of paper: the next man you kiss is your prince, the bride likes you best, Uncle Joe would like the first dance, and so on. Buy a box of fortune cookies and replace the existing fortunes. The trick is to wrap the fortune cookie in a damp paper towel for 20 or 30 seconds, until it’s malleable. Open the cookie, and switch the slip of paper inside, and close/fold the cookie back to its original shape. Consider dipping the cookie in chocolate for a final touch. Herb Garden Create your very own herb garden for guests to take home. On a table, set up a display of various herbs purchased from a local nursery (basil, mint, and more). Attach a signature recipe card to each herb -- pesto for the basil plant; mojitos for the mint. Alternate idea: garden gloves and a nice hand cream. Ice Cream Scoops and Toppings Bar What screams summer like ice cream? Give each guest an ice cream scoop and a chance to bring home their own toppings. Set up various jars filled with popular toppings like rainbow sprinkles, mini chocolate chips, and Captain Crunch! Place scoops nearby with tiny Chinese takeout containers for guests to fill. Beauty Bar Another crowd-pleasing display idea is the beauty bar. Set up jars filled with mini-nail polishes, lip glosses, sample-size moisturizers, bath salts, and more. Let guests pick and choose their pampering goods. more

Resolved Question: 3 baby squirrels fell out of their nest in my backyard, what do I do?

Since I got home from the store, I heard little squealing coming from a tree past a small fence in my backyard, which was at 2 today. A couple hours later, I wanted to know what it was. I stood by my fence, and saw a nest. I then saw something small-the size of a rat- fall out of it. I'm an animal lover, so I freaked out. I grabbed a plastic bag and used it as a glove, and climbed over my fence, picked up the what I now knew was a baby squirrel, so young that its eyes were shut and it had no teeth. my dad put it in a bucket with a coat under neath it, and then I heard more squealing. I went back and found another baby! So I picked it up, and put it in the bucket with the 1st baby. An animal nurse told us to put them in a shoe box with a towel, and put it as close to the tree as possible. We did that, and I've been checking on them. Then, we heard more squealing, so I went back into the forest to check out what it was and found yet another baby! I put it into the shoe box with the others. It is now 8:30, and the mother hasn't return. We think the mother might have been killed by a coyote, cat, dog, etc. I decided if the mom still isn't there by late tonight, we're taking the babies and we're gonna try and feed them milk through a droplet thing, but the thing is what type of milk? Any other suggestions for food? And in the morning, we're gonna take them to a place where people will take care of them. I just need to know what to do. more

Resolved Question: What's in your car camping first aid kit?

I'm building my own first aid kit. I know there are pre-made ones on the market, but I already have a lot of the stuff from an old one that came out of my car. And although I appreciate the thought, I'm not looking for a typed up list from a camping site. I'm looking for items that are the most practical and actually get used. We are fortunate to live in a city with numerous places to camp less than half an hour away. Because of my DH's work we won't be going any further, thus we will always have quick access to medical care. This is what I already have: 3 dozen bandaids, various shapes and sizes (I can add more if need by, I have a ginormous Costco sized box.) 2 triangle bandages several rolls of gauze, gauze pads, tape, and scissors triple antibiotic cream (this is new, just purchased) 2 pairs of gloves (do I need more?) a hypothermia blanket I know I need to get some tweezers, benadryl, and tylenol. What else? TIA! Also, we have a 4yo, almost 2yo, and a dog if that matters. Thank you so much momshieb. I knew there were simple items I was forgetting. I do have some alchol pads so I'll throw those in. I'll pick the rest up tomorrow. Anyone else? more

Resolved Question: Wtf....RESEARCH PAPER TURNED DOWN!?

OK well i have a research paper due tomorrow on boxing and I turned in a first draft yesterday and it got turned down badly my teacher said i needed to cite my sources and he said my paper was an opinion paper not a research paper how can i turn it into a research paper? can someone please save me please help me!! I NEED YOUR GUIDANCE! heres what I turned in you dont have to read it but please give me suggestions or somthing thnx heres what i turned in Boxing Boxing, often called "the manly art of self-defense," is a sport in which two competitors try to hit each other with their glove-encased fists while trying to avoid each other's blows. The competition is divided into a specified number of rounds, usually 3 minutes long, with 1-minute rest periods between rounds. Although amateur boxing is widespread, professional boxing has spread on an even greater scale since the early 18th century Boxing originated when a person first lifted a fist against another in play. The ancient Greeks believed fist fighting was one of the games played by the gods on Olympus so it became part of the Olympic Games in about 688 BC. During Roman times the sport began to thrive on a wide scale. Boxers fought with leather bands around their fists for protection and sometimes wore metal-filled, leather hand coverings which resulted in bloody, often duel-to-death, battles. In 1866 the Marques of Queensberry gave his support to a new set of rules, which were named in his honor. These rules limited the number of 3-minute rounds, eliminated grappling and wrestling, and made the use of gloves mandatory. Bare knuckle didn’t stop but it was certainly decreasing. With the growing popularity of boxing, especially in the United States, weight classes other than the unlimited heavyweights emerged. These classes became popular as world championships were held at the new weights. Many doctors see boxing as an unacceptably dangerous sport , the British Medical Association would love to see it banned. But medical advisers suggest if you have proper precautions that it is not much of a risk. While boxing has fewer deaths than many other sports, other sports don’t compare to the effects of brain damage that may go unrecorded in many boxers. Cuts and bruises are the most common boxing injuries, and many boxers leave the ring needing stitches to the face and dental work. Body blows can lead to broken ribs and internal bleeding. But, as boxing involves powerful people hitting each other repeatedly, often around the head, there are other risks, most serious of all being permanent severe brain damage. While other injuries repair relatively easily, brain tissue, once damaged, remains damaged. The symptoms of such brain damage commonly known as being "punch drunk" include slurred speech, slow reactions and even occasional blackouts. Although there are bad things like this about boxing there all also good things. Boxing can be one of the most beneficial contact sport experiences a person goes through in his young adult lifetime. It teaches a growing man many things about himself, and about others, at a point in his life where focus, concentration and discipline are more important than ever before. Even then, in today's grown male, a controlled boxing work out offers an incredible workout which offers benefits such as fat loss, muscle gain, strength, reflex, agility and motivation to strengthen in other areas through more repetition workouts. Boxing could be easy for some people and hard for others. With Boxing you need four primary limbs to function at the right time. These are your arms and legs. Before you start your training you need to wrap your hands with hand wraps: After your finished wrapping your hand wraps you would proceed to use the jump rope. After your done using the jump rope you could either hit the heavy bag or you might be nominated to spar that day which is to box another person but of friendly terms. This is wear the handy Head Gear comes into play. After your Head Gear is fitted properly you then need your mouth piece. Than you need some Hand Wraps which are used to keep your hands safe in the Boxing gloves. When wrapping the hand wrap you have to be sure to wrap your knuckles and wrap your wrest, because the less friction between your skin a hand wrap the better off you are. Jump Rope the Jump rope is used to warm up before actually sparring or hitting the bag. You usually jump rope for three to five rounds. Rounds last three minutes with a one minute rest. There are different types of Jump Rope, You usually start with one made out of cloth so you don’t hurt yourself when you mess up. When you get better you will be able to use the leather jump rope for more speed and also when you mess up you know it because it stings when it hits you. Now down to some basic moves. In the ring, right-handed boxers usually stand with left foot forward, but for our boxing circuit, lead legs are periodically switched for a more balanced workout. Boxing stance would be to Raise forearms in front of chest, hands gripped in front of face, about chin level, palms facing inward. Concentrate on keeping hands and forearms in this position to guard face at all times, as if in a real boxing match. Keep elbows close to body. Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, one foot stepped forward in front of the other. Keep heel of lead foot in line with toes of rear foot. Lean head slightly forward, chin in. Angle lead shoulder toward target. Maintain a straight back, but allow slight bend in knees. In conclusion, boxing is a hard sport to learn, but it is a fun adventurous and very beneficial ride. It requires months of hard work and dedication to be very good at it. It benefits you in many ways. It helps you lose weight and get the body you desire. If your experienced you may make a living out of it. It also takes you to another level of maturity, so boxing basically transforms you into a new and improved you. To be more prepared for boxing, eating healthy and being healthy in general can and does play a major role in how well you will perform. To be successful in this sport you must train with intensity. To be the best, you must train with the best, there are no shortcuts, or magic pills that will take you to the top. Keep in mind that the ring is a lonely place for a fighter who is not in shape. wow im so greatful for your super great helpful help! lol can we please chat or something? please add me at realhomi2387 more

for this science fair project Experimental Procedure Using the permanent marker, divide the cutting board into six sections, numbering each section #1–6 like this: Put on your gloves and wipe the piece of lunch meat all over the surface of the cutting board. Wipe evenly over the entire surface in circular motions. Leave out overnight, gross! The next day you will cleanse each section of the cutting board with a different disinfectant and then culture the bacteria from each section on a nutrient agar petri dish. Prepare your disinfectant solutions by numbering six small cups #1–6 using your permanent marker. Each numbered cup will match one section of your cutting board fomite. Fill each cup with a different disinfectant solution and write it in a data table. You should fill the first cup with water as a negative control: Number Type of Disinfectant Number of Colonies Other Observations 1 water (control) 2 3 4 5 6 Using the tweezers, grab a cotton ball from a NEW, unopened bag of cotton balls. Dip it into one of the solutions, and rub it on the surface of the cutting board in the matching numbered section. Be careful not to let the solution run into another section! After each application, throw the cotton ball into the trash and dip your tweezers into an extra cup filled with full strength rubbing alcohol. Repeat steps 6 and 7 until you have applied a different disinfectant to each square of the cutting board. Allow the board to dry completely. When all of the sections of the cutting board are dry, you are ready to culture bacteria from each disinfectant treatment. Prepare your agar plates by numbering the lids #1–6 to match the sections of your cutting board. Arrange the plates on a cookie sheet lined with clean paper towels. DO NOT open the lids yet or you will contaminate your cultures! Using the tweezers, grab a clean Q-tip from a NEW, unopened box of Q-tips. Holding one end only, swipe the other end across one section of the cutting board using a circular motion. DO NOT allow the tip of the swab to contact anything else! With your free hand, open the lid of the matching agar petri dish and swipe the Q-tip gently across the agar surface using a zig-zag motion. Immediately replace the lid of the petri dish and secure with a few pieces of clear tape. DO NOT set the lid down while you are streaking the agar because this can contaminate the lid and change your results! Repeat steps 10 and 11 until you have swiped each section of the cutting board onto a separate agar plate. Leave the plates on the cookie sheet in a warm place for 1–2 days, until bacterial colonies are visible. Count the number of colonies on each plate and write your results in the data table, along with any other observations you have. Draw a picture of each plate, noting the size and color of the colonies. If you have a digital camera, you can also take a picture of each plate for your poster. Graph your results and compare the activities of the different disinfectants. Which sections of the cutting board had the most colonies? Which had the least? Which disinfectants worked the best? The worst? i dont know how to culture the bacteria like i transfer the germs or something more

Resolved Question: What is this thing?

Ok so yesterday my mom bought this machine from a flea market and we are trying to figure out what it is. Heres a description: It is cylindrical, is white from the top and light blue from the bottom. It has a knob in the front which can be used to turn it on and off. It has a cord which has to be connected to electricity. At the top, there is a deepish hole in which theres a metal grate. At the front theres a sticker that says 'CAUTION, will get hot in use, wear oven gloves when handling'.When we added water to it and connected it to electricity and switched it on, steam started coming out of it. At the bottom, there are 2 stickers. One says '4imprint@Product Plus International Ltd, PO Box 4348, London, SW8 5XP' and the other one says 'Type: GM-2018, 240V 50Hz 900W' If you know what it is please post a reply. Or if u can use the info on the 2 stickers to tell me. Thanks =] more

Resolved Question: FM band expander?

I got my hands on a FM band expander for my imported prius. It is a classic model NHW11 type. Did anybody installed one in their prius? I had a quick look from the glove box compartment and I can't see the aerial connection from there. Also i need to get power ( 12 V) to supply the expander. I assume that the earth is connected trough the aerial connection. Any suggestion on how to get access to the back of the dash board? I can't see any obvious clips and I don't want to chance breaking anything..... more

Resolved Question: How do I replace the Ford 2007 r/c with a cd unit? What do I plug into pre amp to bypass speakers? Thanks?

I have bought a connector, with 2 types of ends, but the speakers in the car are connected to a single cable which plugs into the FD 2007 unit. I was told by Halfords to bypass speakers and plug connector directly into pre amp, under glove box. I cannot find anywhere to plug it in. Is it the car speaker wiring jack that needs to be plugged in, or the wiring connector? The connector I bought has 2 long Ford connectors and 2 standard cd unit connectors which my jvc cd unit wiring, plugs into. Grateful for any advice from Ford employees, or anyone with experience in Ford stereos. Many Thanks. more

Resolved Question: Does anyone know the name of this online game, and what site it's on?

It's an online multiplayer(well,sort of) puzzle game. A chain reaction type game. There are pre-made levels, and then players can make levles for others to play aswell. There are certain pieces you can use on the levels to get a marble type ball in a hole...like golf...except the pieces are things like little catapults, boxing gloves on springs, elevators...stuff like that. When you create a level you can choose what pieces players can use, and then post it so others can play your level. I have no idea what the name is it's been bothering me for a while. Does anyone have any ideas or guesses. Thanks. I first remember seeing it on Addictinggames.com,if that helps, and I've searched there and I think they took it off. more

Resolved Question: Should I fight?

I have some guys at work (SO) wanting to set me up for a charity boxing match. I'm 60. My opponent would be another SO that is 45. I have boxed before but was 28 at the time. Weights are about the same. I have a load of surgical hardware in my left arm. I know I run the mile faster than he does. And I am by far superior in fighting using several types of martal arts. But the gloves will definitely hamper me. I know how heavy they get after a few rounds. It will be 9. And headgear worn. So, what do you think? Is it worth getting my nose broke again for $500? The money from the fight will go to a drug intervention program. And just maybe the arena will equally match the amount. At least they're working on that. With the protective headgear, my snoze is about the only thing he can damage. I already know I can take anything he can give to the torso. Mouth and eyes are well covered by the headgear. We'll both be middleweights. I lost count how many times my nose has been broken. It's not that bad. And I never had it broke except by bare fist. Might not be possible with the gloves. I'll add my blood pressure is 104/55 and pulse at rest 42. So, don't worry about a coronary or stroke. I am very fit for my age. In the department the only ones faster in the mile are the canines. Have to admit I'm probably going to have difficulty keeping my laft up after about 4 rounds. The groved get real heavy. I'm going to do it. I did a bit of measuring. I figure I might get a bloody nose but the head gear will keep him from breaking it. And the guys at the department pretty well have it I'll win. I run 3 miles daily and play handball or racketball most days. Forgot to add. I have an 855 ft lb punch to my right, instrument certified, but that's Tai Chi Sholin. So. I planning to win within 4 rounds before my left goes lame. Nov 22 no time to train much. I have my plan, though out. I know I could win early on the 1st round resulting in boos and jeers.. I have a little suprise that will protect and conserve my damaged left arm I expect him to try to hit. So, I plan concluding 3rd round before I tire and just long enoug not to get booed. Darn, I think this is the first fight in my life I ever actually planned out. All the others started as complete suprises. more

Resolved Question: I burned my hand cutting a jalapeno?

I should really have a box of rubber gloves for cutting hot peppers- but usually I make a quick inside swipe with a knife and the seeds come right out - anyway, the inside of my finger is burning like crazy - I've tried milk soaks, soap, alcohol, and vinegar, but it's still burning. I know better, I do, but I've had a rough day, and everyone makes mistakes or gets careless occasionally - anyway - how do I stop the burning? Is there anything else I can try, or should I just stay as I am now - with gauze soaked in milk held against my hand? (because that seems to help for a few moments) It's really hard to type like this, and it's pretty sticky, but I'm managing. :) I know this is ridiculous, but it really hurts!!! Thanks for the interesting answers - I ended up taking a few ibuprofen and falling asleep with my hand submerged in ice cold milk - when I woke up I felt mostly better. :) In my home, I really OUGHT to have burn cream - that's probably the best advice of all. more

Resolved Question: What Can I Use To Fill Up A Canvas Boxing Heavy Bag?

Have a empty canvas heavy bag which I want to start using. I plan to not use any type of gloves, will be bare-fisting only. What king of material can I use to fill up bag? And should I have any type of lining inside bag holding said material? Rather hear from Boxers or Martial Artists but will take any help here. Need something thats available, cheap, and wont break my hands when I hit it. Nothing too soft, I hit cement walls during my workouts with 50-60% force but I wish to hit as close to 100% force as I can without breaking anything. I dont think sand would work as its too heavy and it tends to sink inside the bag distributing the sand to the bottom making the bag uneven and softer in certain spots, but I have only read this and dont know if thats true. Any advice is welcome. more

Resolved Question: Ways to get motivated to clean the bathroom?
