Well, there's qualitative and quantitative. Qualitative means it's a quality you observe through the senses, like it's yellow, warm, tall, stinky or bumpy. Quantitative would mean things that are measurable according to others' recordings, like it's 3.2 cm long or it weighs 15 grams.

You can apply some generic hydro cortisone cream, but if you don't have any on hand mix a palm full of baking soda with about a table spoon of water. You can spread this around the area to relieve some burning and itching.

Hold it up in the air as as far above the heart as possible. If a head/abdominal wound then apply pressure until bleeding stops.

Drink cranberry juice, but don't over do it, only 1-3 servings a day and drink it watered down (surprisingly enough). Garlic also has a diuretic affect. Don't over do it with the salt either, that will just counteract the cranberry juice's effect. Rest for 30-45 min. A day with you feet above the level of … Read more

Other women have experienced that feeling after taking Plan B. It's a real shock to the system. I do not advise against using laxatives or even tea that claim to "naturally cleanse you system" because they are almost as shocking to the digestive system as Plan B is to the reproductive system. I suggest eating … Read more

That other one was me but I forgot to sign in.

The slight hump like curvature of their wings makes the air pressure above the wing lower than the bottom side allowing for life. Once in the air the tail acts as a rudder for steering. You can test how low pressure affects lift … Read more

Fats do take longer to burn because they are a more complex polymere. Sugar is a simple compound which is easy to break down and prime for quick energy. It's all chemistry.

Intelligence is decided by many factors and weight is probably one of the least deciding factors. More important factors would be genetics and societal factors. I would put more weight on the later factor. If you see your family, friends and mentors valuing smart decision making and good study habits then you will be more … Read more

Typically; yes, late teens, however the brain doesn't stop developing until 23-25 which causes hormone fluctuations that can cause growth sperts and isn't completely uncommon. Heck, my mom grew four inches in her freshman and sophomore years of college.

Actually eating right before you go to bed, no matter what you eat, will prevent you from burning any fat while you sleep. Instead of using the stored energy in your fat your body is running on the food you just consumed.

It's because the same gastric juices used for digestion in the stomach are present in feces. If your dog throws up frequently and for no apparent reason I would at least call your vet if you can't take him/her in.

Given her age and what you've described I'd suspect so. My dog had the same symptoms while his kidneys were failing just before he passed away last Christmas. He also lost a lot of weight. Don't blame yourself for your pet's condition and try to do what you can to keep her comfortable. I'll send … Read more

If you're also hyperventilating then it's because you have too much oxygen in your blood and not enough carbon dioxide. The overabundance can cause people to pass out, and that's why you've probably seen people breathing into paper bags when they are "freaking out". It gets to CO2 back into your system. If your blood … Read more

Not necessarily, if your body's metabolism is slow enough your small intestine loses its ability to absorb vitamins an minerals. The best way to absorb these nutrients is through food. By the way you're not anorexic you have anorexia nervosa. Someone who has anorexia want to eat but has no appetite.

So others don't know who they're looking at.

How long after? Since the appendix literally does nothing you don't have to worry about it not playing its part in the digestion of alcohol, but I wouldn't advise drinking while you're still healing and especially not right after surgery.

Tapered means slanted, probably short in the back and longer around the face like the popular "posh spice" haircut last year.

Any other carnivore living in the arctic, polar bears and snow leopard, foxes (but not sea lions or walruses, they don't live close enough), but only if they find the wolf dead.

Robin's Egg Blue, or if you want to go the extra girly route, Baby Soft Pink. They are both very complimentary with brown. Have fun!!
