You do know that equal & identical are not the same thing?. You can be equal but different. http://oxforddictionaries.com/definition/equal

I ditched 30 day shred as didn't seem to develop any muscle & the calorie deficit could be gained by just eating less (after 24 days). It's good to increase cardio fitness levels, but not that great for weight loss I found. Switched to heavy weight training & started to see the pounds fly off. Weight training -> Cardio

I'm doing heavy lifting & on a 1800/2100 calorie a day diet (1800 on recovery days, 2100 on training) - I'm eating 150g on recovery days & around 180g on training days. Since increasing my protein intake I've noticed a massive improvement in my lifting, weight loss, & muscle development - I keep reading you can't gain…

Anybody who seems to thinks murder is OK in certain situations & those rubbing there hands gleefully imagining torturing/killing another human (no matte how much they deem them to deserve it). Anybody who supports the death penalty. So basically, most of the people in this thread I'd wager (who claim to be Christian).

It's 8:20AM here & I've just started - at least it's Friday.

Posting in thread with suitable profile picture. Are you forever alone.?.

I find it odd how so many Christians seem to ignore "Tho shalt not kill" - I'm sure the god you believe in also says something about not judging. But I guess the 10 commandments is just a guide you use when it suits you.

These figures are adjusted by population. So yes, they do count. This is also data obtained by the CIA fact0book, an American institution. .... so you are saying you don't have high income inequality because the people at the top earn so much?... You are aware that's what income inequality is - again the fact that American…

She makes one good point, How many dogs have you seen screw each other over for money?. invade another country?, torture another person?, rape children?, murder millions?, genocide?, biological warfare?, drop a nuclear bomb on a civilian city?. Dog's have sacrificed themselves for owners & the only dogs which are violent…

I'm glad I live in a country we don't need to have serious debates about getting married to relatives.

Your father is completely correct. This is why rape is treated less than murder, as in country's in which the plenty is the same - they also kill the women after they rape them. Do we all want vengeance with lot's of extra dead women?, or do we all want justice & more women alive?.

Well, if he intended to kill him - it's murder (regardless as to if it was justified). But I'm guessing his intention was to beat him, not specifically to kill him - understanding if what happened happened exactly as he said it. I'll wait till all the evidence is in before making a judgement, as if you look at the child…

Being a hero requires a heroic act. What about the troops who go over & kill civilians?, are they heroes? - not everybody who puts on a uniform should automatically get given that title. A lone stranger pulling a women from a burning car, risking death is a hero - as they don't get paid for it & nobody expects them to do…

From what I've read losing 1 pound a week is the ideal amount (ensuring it's not muscle you are losing) - anything over has the possibility of being unhealthy. The problem is, we have 100's of different fad diet around making people think that losing 4 pounds a week (unless you are already obese) is realistic. If you are…

You do know this could cause problems for you also?, it's not that complicated. EU people "correcting" the entries for the foods which results if you getting the wrong information. It works both ways, something we need to be aware of. It's nothing about conversion ratios, it's the fact when I look at an MFP entry, I have…

The confusion is that it's recorded as "one cup" in the MFP database, you had to specify which cup - the imperial cup is 10 fl oz, the metric cup 8.8 fl oz. & the US one 8.3 fl oz. Anything in the MFP database with "1 cup" is worthless unless it states which region cup or the volume in the cup. It's standard for the US,…

You mean the metric cup, imperial cup or U.S. customary cup?.

Yup, another good reason. I want it per 100g, so I can do it manually (weigh the food). I also have an inkling that some people are deliberately putting them lower (thinking off, it's 17 so ill put 15 (always rounding down) - as every single item I changed ended up being higher than the MFP data-base stated.

Well, the verification isn't the problem - it may be right (to the person who created it) - just not correct for people in other parts of the world.

Well, one point being that I'd wager that in different country's, the same foods have different nutritional values (due to the different EU/US food regulation). If you change it, you may be changing it from EU to US - with different foods getting switched back & forth - I'd also assume that in the rest of the world they…

Because they don't want to inflate your ego any bigger than it already is perhaps? (also)

Exacty my point above ^, not everybody can be on a high wage - that's not how the system works. Even if everybody was a determined & skilled - a majority of jobs will be paying below the average.

Not everybody can go out & get it. Only a finite amount of jobs exist which pay that well, once they are all taken - a person cant' - that's the cold truth of the matter. In the UK wages are a bit off, our cost of living is so high than $80,000 PA isn't that much here - when you look at the house prices.

Well, if you look at a map of the USA it quite clearly shows that ADHD dianogis has cultural elements (the percentage of diagnosed children is different in different parts of America). This indicates quite clearly that a large number are being diagnosed on either poor grounds, or lacking understanding - there is no genetic…

Not really, two people are involved in the act. Women do not own their children. You need to consider the long term impact of the child (if they are either kept dependant) along in this case with the life-time of humiliation he will ensure (all for the sake of a cheap photo shoot to sell a magazine).

Reminds me of this...

The angle in which the kid is looking into the camera is creepy (no doubt about that) - I also feel sorry for that kid come 10 years now (with that picture of him & his mother is forever printed on the pages of the internet).

You do appreciate the irony in linking a series of news articles to respond to somebody (after you bashed them for using anecdotal evidence) do you not?. I'm talking about large statistically significant data-sets, not bias news articles - besides, you objectively have the highest death by preventable disease rate in the…

"You always use someones race to describe them, or you avoid mentioning race to try not to offend" ^ That seems a little unfair, damned if they do - damned if they don't. "You use racial slurs and make racial jokes" I also don't think this is that fair, I make race related jokes - but about all races - no subject is "too…
