See ya mate, wishing you the best of luck in whatever you decide to do :) Hope it all works out for you.

Weight Lifting!
Do you work the same muscle groups everyday? Because you might not be giving them a chance to fully recover if you're doing the same groups daily. Some people recommend doing one particular muscle group only once a week, others more. I would say 3 times is certainly the max though (that gives you a day of rest in between).

Too bad that's impossible. :wink: Oops, terrible choice of words by me :P

Weight Lifting!
Don't do it mate. I'm sure that personal trainer knows a lot more than me about it specifically but he summed up my feelings about it. A couple of guys who I work out with who use creatine. Yeah, they bulked up a fair bit (they also worked out a lot) but because it's all watery muscle it's only really cosmetic muscle, they're not actually anywhere near as strong as they look. It's also very easy to lose that watery muscle once you stop working out. In short, I wouldn't recommend it at all. Meat, vitamins and the odd protein bar is plenty enough for me.

The "sience"
Did you know Stephen Hawking is starting to think black holes don't exist? There was something on the Discovery Channel about it, but I don't really remember. And quantum theory is my favorite area of physics, I got interested in it off schwordinger's cat. It wouldn't surprise me. He's gone back on a lot of theories he made bets on previously. Like the information paradox etc. I don't really see how he can say black holes don't exist though, they seem fairly, well logical if you look into it.

Is Jagex Dying????
What a load of...no.

The "sience"
I enjoy nearly all the sciences I do at school, but physics is the only one that i'm looking to take any further. Hopefully to degree level. I find physics concepts so fascinating, especially theoretical physics. I threw myself into a project late last year at school and ended up making it surprisingly detailed. The general topic idea was space, but I focused on black holes which had to encompass relativity and quantum mechanics. I found it so interesting to research and do. If anyone's interested I could copy and paste the text into this topic in very small text :P I don't know how to upload word docs.

~Fury's and glories, and buyers oh my!~
Glory at the moment. I wouldn't buy a fury outright (too expensive for relatively small bonuses) but i'm saving up enough chaos to hopefully be able to afford one one day.

Top Gear

Top Gear
Did anyone watch the new series tonight? Apart from being a new series of Top Gear, which is always worth the anticipation, it showed the footage from Hammond's crash, which was spectacular to say the least, and actually quite eerie. Overall though I thought the series got off to a great start, I love it :)

college where would you want to go
I usualy don't do this buut I'm genuinly currious: You said that you used to live in isreal and talked about going to school there. If your from isreal than how did your dad go to west point, an incredibly prestigous and hard to get into military school? I mean.. especialy if you used to live in Isreal. Isn't it obvious? Magic.

Recycled water: YES or NO and WHY
That's what I though. :? I'd heard somewhere that only 1% of the water left in the world could be considered "unused" before in someway. Of course i'm for it.

Choosing a car.
As cool as a classic mini would be, a Lupo is sadly the much more obvious choice. Better safety figures and reliability. Performance is mediocre but so is performance in most cars at that price range.

Looking back at Runescape.
I like how everyone immediately becomes hyper cynical after they quit :P I still play (shoot me), because, shock horror, I still enjoy it. Isn't that what gaming is about? I think people get too caught up nowadays in how fancy the graphics are and often ignore the simple fun factor. I have some good friends on it, and after a day of working hard and thinking hard at school a bit of simple clicking is just what I want for an hour or two. I'm not a serious gamer, so the simplicity and wholesome fun factor is what I want. I've moved this to video games and consoles, possibly more appropriate.

Help - "generic host process for win32 proccesss" error msg
I've changed the title of the thread to something more descriptive so you get more help. Feel free to change it to something you might feel is more appropriate.

Misinterpreting things
I've become so numb to "your mum" jokes over the years that if someone really was insulting my mother I wouldn't have a clue.

why can friends be such jerks?
Oh, how I know how you feel. My situation doesn't sound quite as bad as yours, but it certainly was rough, and my friends abandoned me. They knew what I was going through, and yet still they drifted away from me. It just goes to show friends that you can have a good time with at the weekends and friends you can rely on are a completely different thing. Luckily I have a very supportive and strong family so we pulled through, and enough other close friends to get me through. I heard something which I believe to be very true during that time: "It's times like [this situation] when you realise who your friends are." I certainly won't rely or count on any of those people ever again. Because I certainly don't need them. I've lost some good friends to drugs and social trends. True friends are a rare gift.

Bring back Capital punishment?
Really? I'm extremely curious as to how.

Music. Because of the Lyrics, or the Instruments?
The combination. It's not always a perfect combination, and sometimes as Daan said, i'll ignore the lyrics but love the harmony, melody and sound of it, or vice versa. To find a good combination of the two is often what makes a song special.

Electric Guitars !
Moved to music and movies :) Sadly I don't know much about rhythm guitar and if there's any specialist guitars/styles. I play lead. But I do know Epiphone are a good brand across the board who aren't too expensive. But there may be others out there that are better suited.

WTC/9/11 form your eyes
I remember coming back from a swimming lesson with my parents telling me what had happened. I was quite young at the time so I didn't know what the WTC buildings were. I just imagined a light aircraft accidentally flying into an office block. It was only when I got home and saw the news on TV I realised the extent of it. I've since visited ground zero. A lot of people commented on how moving it was for them. I didn't find this at all. Perhaps if i'd been before and seen the WTC buildings standing there, but to me it just looked like a building site.

Marijuana. As bad as they say it is?
The law isn't always correct, and what the law doesn't know, doesn't hurt the law. Yeah, but it's the LAW! It overrides what you think is right and wrong. Sorry! The law is there to protect you. Just because you do not like the law does not mean you should disobey it. Since when is the law always right?
