Best way to increase my vertical jump, for basketball?

Hello!





I've heard that some weight belt, or special boots called Jump Shoes would help me out.





I am over 6 feet, but under 6 foot 1.





Please help me out here, as my current jump is, virtually pathetic!





Thanks in advance,

Best way to increase my vertical jump, for basketball?
The best program out there that i have found for increased vertical is luke lowrey's double your vertical leap...

Reply:calve muscle workout. and the foot weights + belt weights help alot too. When i was in high school i had alot of trouble trying to reach the top of the volleyball net. Being 5'8 that doesn't help either. So i tried the foot weights. 2kgs on each leg and my legs cramped all the time. the first week was a nightmare, people laughed at me all the time coz it seemed like a lost cause. So i started running more in the mornings to improve my fitness (with the weights of course) and to get used to having that much weight on my feet. I promised myself to do it for 6 weeks and my aim was to touch the bottom of the backboard at home consistently and repetitively. It was a nightmare to begin with. But once i started touching the board then i knew i was getting better. Now i spike pretty well and i control the ball alot better at the net height. Plus i can touch the basketball ring now. Thats an effort for a guy my size.

How to get a date?

I seem to be having a lot of trouble getting a date. All of my friends are getting married or raising kids. I haven't been able to find anyone who is willing to go out with me yet. I'm not sure if I'm missing something, like some special words or magical shoes that I'm supposed to wear when I meet girls that no one has told me about that I'm just supposed to know of, but for some reason don't. Is there anything I should be doing?

How to get a date?
Women practice dismissal, fear, and preoccupation. Men need an opening line, small talk, and to close with getting a telephone number or a date. The number one dating advice for women is "play hard to get".





Obese blobs, (that are 50% of the population), have immature hysteria that causes delirium in good looking women. The environments in this society are .1% good looking women.





There are 21 organizations spying on the population with plain clothes agents. No one has ever seen the start of a relationship.
Reply:If you are too scared to ask anyone out, or just don't seem to meet anyone, ask yourself about your looks. It's that simple. Not your face, or your hair style- your body. If you are in shape and work out, you won't even have to ask or sweet talk anyone. If you are out of shape, they lose the initial attraction (which is big), and if you don't even take care of yourself, how are you supposed to take care of anything else? They will come to you. Just hope you have what it takes on the inside after you have improved the outside.

Reply:3 words "Lower your standards" it works wonders
Reply:Just be youself and don't be a as*-hole
Reply:im in the exact same situation as you... except i think im a little younger
Reply:Most people that have this problem, do so because they have unrealistic standards, for the persons looks. They don't seem to be concerned if the potential date has a personality or not.





Some men never outgrow this. I know a man whom is 39, short, very overweight, has no car, and is bald. He expects some super-model that is a foot taller then him, and 1/3 his weight to go on a date with him. That does not happen, so he has had perhaps 5 dates in the last 10 years.





Odds are some girl likes you, but you don't see her. You are probably targeting some other girls that basically don't know you exist. Why not practice on the easy ones first. You know, the ones you never seem to notice. Who cares if she does not wear a size 6, or whatever. What matters is she is fun to be with.





There are lots of single girls at the community college. You might be surprised how many are your type.

Personal experience w/ compression wraps for shin splints??

I am a runner and have always had problems w/ shin splints.... only in my left shin. I know what my problems is (overpronation in my left foot due to a semi-flat foot).....I have ordered special inserts for my shoes and I am also curious if a compression wrap might help.....Should I wear it during a run or while at rest? Anyone have any personal experience w/ this? Did it help? or even possibly make it worse? I know it just takes rest to let it heal....I haven't been able to run in 2 weeks for that reason....but I want to make sure my problem doesn't come back.





Thanks in advance.

Personal experience w/ compression wraps for shin splints??
I occasionally use compression wraps when I play soccer, I do find that they really do help with the pain, they don't completely get rid of the pain but the really lessen it enough to the point where you can pretty much resume normal activity.

Low ring bone and trying to sell?

My horse has been diagnosed with low ring bone. He has done yearling lunge, etc. and when I bought him he was 4 and had only done a few cross rails. I got him for 17k and he's now about 7 and has done 3ft jumps. Unfortunately he started falling lame a lot and we got him x-rayed. Diagnosis: low ring bone. Fix: special rubber support in shoes and cortizone%26amp;something else shots every 8 months to 2yrs max. Just before we found out, we had been trying to sell him so that I could move and do Jumpers classes instead of hunters. He can no longer do much jumping -and especially not anything big-ish at all. We were going to try to sell him for 25k now that he was so much more advanced but now our trainer is saying we'll be lucky to get 5k! I thought maybe we could put him up for sale as a dressage prospect. His gaits are absolutely dynamite and he blows the judges away on his hunter undersaddle classes. He knows how to strut, and has a big heart. He is a TB/ paint and flashy. What can I do?

Low ring bone and trying to sell?
Be honest in your marketing. Anyone who is paying that kind of money for a horse would surely have a vet check and xrays done.





I presume you have done your homework on ringbone. Eventually it may fuse without surgery. Usually, then, the stress causes high ringbone to develop.





Sometimes really good farrier work (check out Olineck's research on ringbone- he uses a caulk like filler under the pad) (and Pete Ramey's natural method from his website) helps.





I've been through this with a mare for 6 years and still have her. She's not usable. But others can be made usable with proper care. You really can't market him as a dressage prospect, though, knowing his diagnosis.





We did everything short of surgery.


The best we found was quality barefoot trims.





Not very encouraging, I know. It's impossible to tell what activity caused the damage. And too late to fix it now.
Reply:Selling is going to test your moral character. If you want the best for your horse (and most of us do) and if you want to maintain the reputation of being an honest person, you have no choice but to sell with full disclosure.





As far as cost is concerned, your horse is not worth nearly as much as what you paid for it now. He has a condition which is not reversable, might be treatable, and is most likely going to get worse. I would offer him for sale as a light riding horse only. You will be EXTREMELY lucky to get $5K for him. In my area, a horse with that kind of problem is worth less than $1K.





Harsh news, but that is the business.

Sylvester Stalone can NEVER replace Charles Bronson in Death Wish 1! Do you agree? Who should play that part?

I think Johnny Depp would be a million times better suited for the role. Sly is way too OLD. Or Leonardo Di Caprio could do it!





It will take someone special to fill the shoes of Charles Bronson!

Sylvester Stalone can NEVER replace Charles Bronson in Death Wish 1! Do you agree? Who should play that part?
William H. Macy
Reply:I say leave it alone. Bronson was the best for those movies. And they're done! But if there had to be someone...definately not sly, he's just not the type. I'd go for Jude Law, or Matt Damon. Someone to bring intelligence to the role.
Reply:The part's really for an 'everyman' kind of actor, not too old or young... I think Kiefer Sutherland could definitely pull it off.
Reply:i think they shouldn't leave it alone I'm sick of remakes how about some new original bloody movies
Reply:These re-makes are annoying. If the old one wasn't broke why try to fix it.
Reply:Have you seen the original movie?





Bronson was married with a twenty something year old married daughter who gets raped in the movie.





If you want to find a replace ment for Bronson you are looking for someone like Keifer Sutherland, a guy who actually has a twenty something year old daughter.





Stallone would be too old but Depp and Di Caprio would be way too young.





You want someone in their mid to late forties.





Russell Crowe, maybe, but; sombody in that age group.





And to be honest, he should be Irish. New York Irish. The Kersey name yells for it.





Then again if you go African American, Lawrence Fishburne, would be spectacular in that role. He strikes me as the evil vigilante if push comes to shove. Think pre Pulp Fiction.
Reply:I think Isaiha Washington would be able to nail that role perfectly.
Reply:You should watch Death Wish 1 again and recall that Charles Bronson was no spring chicken in that movie. Stalone would be about the right age. But yea', I'm sure they could find a better actor. Forest Whitaker might add an interesting twist to the role, Jean-Claude Van Damme is about due for a comeback too.

I don't think that my standards are too high, basically someone with half a brain and who isn't obese. I don't pretend to be anyone else. The people I do know say I have a great personality and I am very sociable. I talk to women all the time and I'm not afraid to ask anyone out. I work out 4-5 days a week and eat right. I'd say I have better hygene than most guys and like to dress well (not overly though). Sometimes I go in phases where I kind of give up and don't bother looking for someone and other times it's the opposite.

How to get a girlfriend?
Itlbox - a lot of people (male and female) have problems connecting with the opposite sex. Please just know that you are okay.





Look around your local area and see if there are any dating 'coaches' or dating classes. I live in Chicago and there is an lifelong adult learning center called the Discovery Center and they offer short classes and seminars on topics like "How to Flirt" and "Coffee Dating."





Also, you might want to join a 'singles' group. In Chicago they have something called HighLife Adventures which is a way for single people to meet other available singles while participating in fun activities (not just going to bars).
Reply:First of all, if you want a girlfriend, I don't think it is wise to be advertising "How to get a girlfriend" on Yahoo answers. It kind of makes you sound dorky.
Reply:Ask a woman how much beer she can drink. If she's a drunk, then you'll get a date.
Reply:Maybe they all think you're too good to be true and are therefore gay or taken. Sometimes that's what I think about men.
Reply:It sounds as if there isn't a problem with you personally, per se. It seems that you are actively looking for a girlfriend, which may be your problem. Just relax and do your own thing; women will come along eventually. :)
Reply:You should be nice and if she smiles or walks slow to her car, then she likes you. Or maybe she thinks your your gay, incinuiate that you are STRAIGHT. I don't mean to be mean but, you DO take care of yourself...

I have tried everything;special soak special spray only expensive shoes; anti-fungal creams and sprays.

Try odor eaters in shoes! Put your shoes in a zip lock bag and freeze your shoes for a day! And then let it melt in the sun! You got to wear different shoe instead of just one! Hope that this will work! Best of luck!

Reply:My dad had a problem like this when I was younger, and my mom made him soak his feet for 5-10 minutes in a tub of water with Clorox Bleach added to the water. I know it helped and he would do it at least once a week for a month or so to get the smell to go away. I know that mom also washed his socks with a disinfectant to help. Most odors are caused by bacteria, so I imagine she was getting rid of the stuff that made his feet stink.
Reply:Wash your feet, use witch hazel, just pour on a cotton ball, then use Dr. Scholls super absorbent foot powder, it works, the combination of the three. Also, regular anti-perspiant deodorant, dove, or any spray, or even roll on, give it a try.

Name this movie?

it was about this black teenager in high school and he want to be a pro at basketball, but when he found these special kind of red shoes he became a phenomenon and he was very good at it like he was the next micheal jordan, i think it was called the red shoes but i'm not sure so any idea of the name?

Name this movie?
It's called "The Red Sneakers" (2002).


http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0272274/





Since you said in your description the shoes are "red", I felt it fits with this movie.





Plot summary: A kid named Reggie Reynolds is a high school student who is good in the classroom but not so good on the basketball court. One day he meets a junk dealer who gives him a pair of old red gym shoes that once were worn by an all-star in the ***** Basketball leagues in the 1930's. Reggie puts the red sneakers on and he is immediately playing like a superstar on the basketball court.

Some questions about the Navy?

So as I said I've got a couple questions about the navy. First of all im leaving for recruit training february 26th and my recruiter keeps telling me that I can leave early I just have to pass some "test" however I have no idea what he's talking about. Anyone know about these tests or anyone who has actually been able to leave early for recruit training? Also, i was wondering if I am able to bring my own running shoes? I heard in the AF you can they just have to be all white, does the same hold true for the navy? are there any special rules about running shoes? Next, I was wondering what all you need to bring with you and what all you get there, toiletries and clothes kinda stuff. And lastly, any adive you can give an eager recruit? So, i know its kind of a lot of questions, but thanks in advanced for your honest answers!

Some questions about the Navy?
Former Navy Recruit Commander here. They could be talking about either the ASVAB or some sort of body fat test. Make sure you have an A- School after boot camp. Do not leave for training with out one. Sometimes recruiters try to get you on the bus or plane without securing one on paper for you. They make promises they don't keep some times. I don't know how many times a recruit came to me later wondering why they had no A- school yet. Pack as little as possible. Wear something comfortable to travel. Pack no other clothes. You can bring underwear and socks. Navy recommends that the ladies bring their own. You can bring a small bible or other compact religious material and i think your allowed a few photos, make sure they are appropriate with no nudity and such. Fellas do not need combs or brushes since you get a buzz cut. Women are allowed some beauty supplies like facial cream and or soap specific to their skin type and other feminine items. No medications like asprin or tylenol. No jewelry unless it is a wedding band or a religious medal. No watches, they allow you to buy one during "work week" . DO not bring contacts wear your glasses. If you want to keep it don't bring it.. is the philosophy. Basically you have a drawer about the size of a small small shoe box to fit all your toiletries and other items and thats it. Think small when you buy. They will give you stationary to write home with so don't bring any. After a few days you will be given a Debit Card with your first pay check on it. This is what you will use to purchase any thing you need. Good Luck Ship Mate.
Reply:King Neptune got another one. his followers are making a big difference, Thank you for serving
Reply:I have been in the navy for 4 years now and recently reenlisted.





As far as I know if your recruiter offers you to leave early its usually not a good idea because you are going to lose something. Ive never heard of any "tests" and I dont know what rating you signed up for but usually if they try to ship you off early it is because they can drop your rating and send you undesignated, either airdale or seaman or fireman apprentice. You do NOT want to do this. If you go undesignated you are going to hate life. Being undesignated means you have no specific job and you basically are going to have to do a bunch of crap work that no one wants to do and at the same time study a rating that you have received no training in and try to "Strike" into that rate by taking their advancement exam. Overall it would make things much more difficult for you.





As far as what to bring to boot camp I would suggest nothing. Everything will be provided for you and anything you bring will most likely be shipped back home. There are some toiletry things you can bring if you wish but I wouldnt suggest it.





The best advice I can give you is if you arent in shape, start running running running. Conditioning yourself is one of the best things you can do to get ready. On top of that STUDY. Things such as general orders, ranks, UCMJ, things of that sort. They will be drilled into you once you go to RTC and knowing it in advance will help you tremendously. Also I would try to prepare yourself mentally. While I did not find RTC to be hard at all(I grew up in a military family) many others I know found it hard to all of a suddon start taking orders and being told to do everything. You will get yelled at constantly but that is just part of the boot camp experience. It is done to "break you down as a civilian and build you up as a sailor".





And remember, its only 2 months. It goes by a LOT faster than you would think.
Reply:Hey whats up future ship mate...im leaving for boot camp February 5th. I have no clue what test you are talking about. I signed up to go way back in June and my recruiter was telling me that I was going to be able to leave alot sooner also....truth be told...it never happened.





The assign you a date based on space availability for A-School. There are hundreds of people going in right now, and chances are they are not going to allow you to cut in front of anyone and leave early.





They provide you with running shoes. New Balances to be exact.





Don't bring anything. They will send it back. They provide you with everything you will need...but they dock it from your paycheck. The clothes and everything you bring with you will be sent back home...





Good luck. See you there lol.
Reply:ok so one of my best friends just went into the military like a year or so ago. he was doin ok but he signed for eight years. he had a fiancee and decided he'd go awol because he thought he loved her. it was the worst mistake of his life. he just threw it away. when he came back they started living together and he realized he didnt like her. he had just realized the awful mistake he had made. now, you aren't technically AWOL until youve been gone for like 100 days or 90 or somethin like that and on like his 80th day they found him and took him ti the brig. he now waits there to find out if he gets life sentence or if they will be able to reinstate the death penalty. either way he has no life. for those of you who dont know, the military brig is where they send recruits who have wronged the country in such a way as my friend here. it is much worse than any fed prison and the people there might as well be dead. so i guess my point/advice is dont go AWOL. period. dont sign for too long and dont leave in love. sorry about the worthless rant.
Reply:All your questions can be answered thru your recruiter unless you are scared to ask him/her. But on the real though buddy, some of you questions can be answered at www.navy.com. Just search the website. It ain't that hard. By the way, I leave for bootcamp on 20 FEB 2008...I can't wait to go...





Good Luck


and...


Go Navy!!!
Reply:I served back in the early 70's and a fewv other actions later. As far as recruiters go, they are the biggest con artists of all. They will tell you anything to sign. When we went in during our period, the recruiter said college was paid for and all kinds of stuff. College cost me 20 grand a semester and the va gave me only 473.00 a month. had to sue the government for fraud and they had to pay. Ever watch the movies that are comedies where they are told everything to get signed and then get to bootcamp and are told forget what they recruiters say, its what we say now.

Can anyone help me please? Has anyone ever had plantar facitis? if so, how did you cure it?

I have tried everything from, chiropractor, stretching exercises, sleeping with a brace, buying special orthodics, new good shoes and nothing has helped. Dr. say's I have very high insteps which makes it more difficult to cure. I live with terrible pain "everyday!" Has anyone been in my shoes???? if so, PLEASE tell me what you did!!!


Thanks.....

Can anyone help me please? Has anyone ever had plantar facitis? if so, how did you cure it?
My mom had that, and she was in terrible pain. I seen my mom actually crawl because it was too painful for her to stand on her feet. She even had cortisone shots in her feet but it didn't help. Mom said she started to notice that after she had eaten certain foods, that her feet hurt even more. So she started to keep track of the foods she ate and how she felt the next day. It turned out to be related. This is how she cured herself and hopefully this will help you too.


She stopped eating cooked tomatoes and cooked spinach and cut way back on potatoes because those three items turn toxic in your system and they kick up arthritis, she also cut back on dairy products. That is really hard for her because she loves dairy. Last but not least she takes vitamin B6, it kicks the heck out of arthritis. I should tell you that plantar facitis is a form of arthritis and it just so happens to settle in your feet. One more thing she exercises daily and lost weight. Good luck to you.
Reply:Oh yeah - been there done that. The doctor can give you an injection in your heel and the pain will go away instantly. Continue to sleep with the brace on even after you get the shot. Also, continue to stretch. You have to take really good care of your feet. Boy, when they hurt you hurt all over huh! But, please get the injection. It does't hurt a bit. You will be amazed at the INSTANT relief you get and you'll wonder why you didn't get the injection sooner! I think you should go to a Podiatrist for your injection....
Reply:Ooh sorry to hear that. I was in similar situation six years ago and nothing worked and we came so close to having it operated on.





Here's what helped for me, 3 things:





1) Shoes with a slightly elevated heel (maybe 3/4 inch), they weren't even orthopedic, but once I started wearing them the pain decreased substantially and as a result the tissue began to heal. I tried this on a hunch and it worked. These were the dress shoes I wore at work.


2) I was overweight at the time and lost weight. About 20-25 pounds. I unfortunately have since gained some of it back and the heel has minor pain again, so I am trying to lose the weight again. I lost the weight originally through diet, walking and stationary biking.


3) I stopped running...it was too much wear and tear on the heel.





Good luck!
Reply:Are you a runner? The only thing that worked for me when I had it was to stop running for awhile. I hated to do it, but it did get my feet back in good condition. Now I'm a lot more careful about wearing really good shoes, not over-taxing my feet by running too far when I haven't trained enough, etc.

I have foot pain. How do i get rid of it?

I used to have really bad foot pain but i got some special inserts for my shoes and the pain for the most part went away. Now i am not aloud to wear tennis shoes for my job so have to wear black oxford type shoes. The pain is back. With the same insert it dosen't help. What can I do? If the pain is like this I won't be able to work.

I have foot pain. How do i get rid of it?
You really need to see a podiatrist (foot doctor) or an orthopedist (bone doctor) to get to the bottom of why you are having such severe foot pain. No one, not even a doctor, can tell you what to do without an examination, a medical history and pertinent questions which will help determine the basis of the pain.





Pain is a warning that something is wrong. You will depend on your feet for the rest of your life and ignoring the pain could lead to permanent debilitation. Please see a specialist asap.

How About a Little Redneck Etiquette......?

Redneck Etiquette





Just when you think you've heard it all.








1. Never take a beer to a job interview.





2. Always identify people in your yard before shooting at them.





3.It's considered tacky to take a cooler to church.





4. If you have to vacuum the bed it's time to change sheets.





5. Even if you're CERTAIN that you are included in the will ... it is still considered tacky to drive a U-Haul to the funeral.











DINING OUT











1. When decanting wine, make sure that you tilt the paper cup and pour slowly so as not to "bruise" the fruit of the vine.





2. If drinking directly from the bottle, always hold it with your fingers covering the label.











ENTERTAINING IN YOUR HOME











1. A centerpiece for the table should NEVER be prepared by a taxidermist.





2. Do NOT allow the dog to eat at the table . . . no matter how good his manners are.











PERSONAL HYGIENE











1. While ears need to be cleaned regularly, this is a job that should be done in private using one's OWN truck keys.





2. Proper use of toiletries can forestall bathing for several days. However if you live alone, deodorant is a waste of money.





3. Dirt and grease under the fingernails is a social no-no, as it tends to detract from a woman's jewelry and alter the taste of finger foods.











DATING (OUTSIDE THE FAMILY)











1. Always offer to bait your date's hook, especially on the first date.





2. Be aggressive. Let her know you're interested: "I've been wantin' to go out with you since I read that stuff on the bathroom wall two years ago...."





3. Establish with her parents what time she is expected back. Some will say 10:00 PM; others might say "Monday." If the latter is the answer it is the man's responsibility to get her to school on time.

Do you watch your manners?? heheh?

Some Arkansas etiquette tips... My apologies to friends from Texas, North Carolina, West Virginia, and other parts of the country who may feel left out.





PERSONAL HYGIENE





While ears need to be cleaned regularly, this is a job that should be done in private using one's OWN truck keys.


Proper use of toiletries can forestall bathing for several days. However, if you live alone, deodorant is a waste of good money.


Dirt and grease under the fingernails is a social no-no, as they tend to detract from a woman's jewelry and alter the taste of finger foods.





DINING OUT





When decanting wine, make sure that you tilt the paper cup, and pour slowly so as not to "bruise" the fruit of the vine.


If drinking directly from the bottle, always hold it with your fingers covering the label.





ENTERTAINING IN YOUR HOME





A centerpiece for the table should never be anything prepared by a taxidermist.


Do not allow the dog to eat at the table...no matter how good his manners are.





DATING (Outside the Family)





Always offer to bait your date's hook, especially on the first date.


Be aggressive. Let her know you are interested "I've been wanting to go out with you since........


Establish with her parents what time she is expected back. Some will say 1000 PM; Others might say "Monday." If the latter is the answer, it is the man's responsibility to get her to school on time.





THEATER ETIQUETTE





Crying babies should be taken to the lobby and picked up immediately after the movie has ended.


Refrain from talking to characters on the screen. Tests have proven they can't hear you.





WEDDINGS





Livestock, usually, is a poor choice for a wedding gift.


Kissing the bride for more than 5 seconds may get you shot.


For the groom, at least, rent a tux. A leisure suit with a cummerbund and a clean bowling shirt can create a tacky appearance.


Though uncomfortable, say "yes" to socks and shoes for this special occasion.





DRIVING ETIQUETTE





Dim your headlights for approaching vehicles; Even if the gun is loaded, and the deer is in sight.


When approaching a four-way stop, the vehicle with the largest tires always has the right of way.


Never tow another car using pantyhose and duct tape.


When sending your wife down the road with a gas can, it is impolite to ask her to bring back soft drinks and a candy bar.


Never relieve yourself from a moving vehicle, especially when driving.


Do not lay rubber while traveling in a funeral procession.





TIPS FOR ALL OCCASIONS





Never take a beer to a job interview.


Always identify people in your yard before shooting at them.


It's considered tacky to take a cooler to church.


If you have to vacuum the bed, it is time to change the sheets.

Do you watch your manners?? heheh?

Knee Pain? or growing pain?

For about a year i have been having pain in my knees and during the past few weeks its been getting increasingly worse.The pain is a sharp pain that feels like my knee is locked in place. I do have a slight muscular disease that has not been diagnosed.I have had 3 major foot surgeries.i do wear shoes that have special insoles that help support my feet.Could my knee pain be caused from my surgeries or my muscular disease. My mother says that she thinks its growing pains, since i am 15, but i dont think it is. Any ideas?

Knee Pain? or growing pain?
There are too many variables to give you an accurate impression but the "locking" of the knee is a sign of a meniscus tear. The best option is to see a health care professional (athletic trainer, physical therapist, or doctor). Are you an athlete? Any new activity? Where is the pain? What makes it worse? All of these questions must be answered to give you an accurate diagnosis.
Reply:I have the same sort of pain from getting hit by a car... It must be caused by the surgeries, but I am not sure... I'm sorry... Good luck with everything. :(

I'd like to have my own cleaning business or own a scrapbooking store
Reply:A used bookstore would be great. There are none in the area of Sacramento that I live in and I think it would be a good business to own. If I weren't reading all the books that came in all the time.
Reply:I am taking computer programming courses, I want to be a web site designer. Since you asked about the problems or difficulties, I'll say it is the number one problem on the Web today is a mismatch between the desired message and the actual message being delivered.

Personal Hygiene











1. While ears need to be cleaned regularly, this is a job that should be done in private using one's OWN truck keys.

3. Dirt and grease under the fingernails is a social no-no, as they tend to detract from a woman's jewelry and alter the taste of finger foods.





4. Make sure to check to see if you need to change your underwear in the morning, if you think you may have wet-farted just before going to bed the previous night.





5. Chewing tobacco should not be put on the bedstand to be re-used in the morning.











Dating (Outside the Family)











1. Always offer to bait your date's hook, especially on the first date.





2. Be aggressive. Let her know you're interested: "I've been wantin' to go out with you since I read that stuff about you on the bathroom wall two years ago."





3. Establish with her parents what time she is expected back. Some will say 10:00 PM; others might say "Monday", if the latter is the answer, it is the man's responsibility to get her to school on time.





4. Always have a positive comment about your date's appearance, such as, "Ya sure don't sweat much for a fat broad."

Driving Etiquette











1. Dim your headlights for approaching vehicles; even if the gun is loaded, and the deer is in sight.

3. Never tow another vehicle using pantyhose and duct tape.

6. Do not lay rubber while traveling in a funeral procession.











TWO REASONS WHY IT IS HARD TO SOLVE A REDNECK MURDER:





1. All the DNA is the same. 2. There are no dental records.

Even more reckneck manners?
How many rednecks does it take to eat possum?














Three. One to eat it and two to watch for cars.

How do you prepare for Umrah?

What kind of stuff do you need to bring to Umrah? like what kind of clothe and shoes and any special items do you need? and is there any specific rule about the clothe men and/or women need to wear? please answer as soon as possible! THANKS!

How do you prepare for Umrah?
hi..


i tried to provide some links below, i wish u know Arabic, however i provided u ana english language link.


but there is a lot of details, i don't have a source on hand to give u, i did Umra twice, Hajj once, but also am afraid to forget something...


am sorry..


but u can do further search on the internet to gain more information, and i expect u have a guide for ur group,and every thing u need is out there at Abar Ali or at any Meqat place u'll reach to enshallah, women can wear any thing which is coplied with Shariaa, not so colorful, for men Ehram"white 2 peices, similar to the towel"


perfume only for men after bathing and before wearing Ehram at the Meqat ofcourse.


Neyya is so important after wearing Ehram for men, any way neyya for both starts at Meqat, and soon after Talbya.


"labbayk allahomma labbayk, labbayk la shareeka laka labbayk, inna al hamda, wa al neamata , laka wa al molk, la shareeka lak"


all the way from meqat to Makka Talbya should continue, loud voice for men, low voice for women.


several things u should do at Meqat, but u can do it the day before , cut the nails and shaving"pubic and axillary hair for both men and women"


u shouldnt...


put any perfume after ehram, or on the top of Ehram, remove any hair or even peice of nail or skin beside after Neyya.


man shouldn't cover the head,women shouldn't cover face or hands.


u can wear a watch, belt for men, pocket side belt, eye glasses.


all Makkah is forbideen area, every thing applied inside Al-Haram Mosque, is spplied st whole Makkah.


u should feal there the greatness of God more than ever.


look at the Al-Kaaba Al-Mosharrafa during Tawaf, and try to keep stairing.


pray for every rhing u hope for ur self and ur Muslim brothers and sisters during Tawaf and S'aae


and am bigging god for acceptance from all of us only for him.





am advising u to get one of those simpel informative books about Umra, to do it most perfectly.


snd here is the links:

Reply:well, men cannot wear sown clothes...srry if that didnt help!!
Reply:as a woman, you do not need special clothes, just clean one. Pls do not use perfume at all after you passed the border line to mekka. you need a Quran and du'a book, just in case you want to read... I advise you to have confortable shoes, but u know that inside Haram, you must take off your shoes. Try to have some socks, the marble can be cold sometimes, especially for women. It is easy to make umrah, especially off the hajj season or Ramadan month. You need patience and be very carefull to fulfill the space borders. Before beginning umrah you must make the intention at the meekat, the border, which is rather close to Mekkah. And the go to Masjid al Haram, do the tawaf and Sa'i. Please read before going there, it will be helpful, and the reward is bigger...may God protect u there

My husband is addcited to the jordans?

what is it about air jordans? people fight and will kill to get there hands on them! what makes these sweet shop poorly made shoes so damn special? my man is hooked! i dont understand it?

My husband is addcited to the jordans?
its like driving a shitty rusted ford tempo or a brand new sleek ferrari. which would u choose?i have 3 pairs of jordans one pair being a prototype never been realesed that cost me over 700$ alone. and when im in a new pair of jordans and see people in geeky brooks i laugh.stop drinking the jordan hater-ade.why do women spend thousands on a dior (or add any fashion na,me brand) handbags when a grocery bag is probaly more spacious and cheaper?they like the name,prestige and quality of the more expensive brand names.and whether they are made in sweat shops means nothing.i have never had a pair fall apart.i guess there little malnourished child fingers can get right in there and sew that shoe good.does them making 5 cents a day bother me while im playing a game in my nice kicks?no not really.if nike didnt give them the 5 cents they would lounge around in trash all day anyways.
Reply:I don't understand it myself, they're just shoes. Isn't that supposed to be the women's category? Myself, I like a good pair of shoes that are comfortable, but I sure as hell don't need to spend $150 dollars on them!

Tips for Red Necks?
A blonde goes into work one morning crying her eyes out. Her boss,concerned about all his employees' well being, asked sympathetically, "What's the matter?" To which the blonde replies....."Early this morning I got a phone call saying that my mother had passed away." The boss, feeling very sorry at this point, explains to the young girl. "Why don't you go home for the day.....we aren't terribly busy. Just take the day off to relax and rest." The blonde very calmly states......"No, I'd be better off here. I need to keep my mind off it and I have the best chance of doing that here." The boss agrees and allows the blonde to work as usual...."if you need anything, just let me know." Well, a few hours pass and the boss decides to check on the blonde. He looks out over his office and sees the blonde hysterically crying!! He rushes out to her, asking, "What's so bad now........are you gonna be ok??" "No......" exclaims the blonde. "I just got a call from my sister. She told me that HER mom died too!!"





-------


A little blonde girl comes back from school one evening. She runs to her mum and says: "Mummy today at school we learnt how to count. Well, all the other girls only counted to 5, but listen to me: 1,2,3,4,5, 6,7,8,9,10! It's good, innit?"





"Yes, darling, very good." Answers the mom.





"Is that because I'm blonde?" she asks.





"Yes, darling, it's because you're blonde." The mom says.





Next day, the little girl comes back from school and says: "Mummy, today at school we learnt the alphabet. All the other girls only went as far as D, but listen to me: A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I,J,K! It's good, innit?"





"Yes, darling, very good." Answers the mom.





"Is that because I'm blonde, mummy?" she asks.





"Yes, darling it's because you're blonde." The mom says.





Next Day, she returns from school and cries: "Mummy, today we went swimming. Well, all the other girls have no breasts, but look at me!" She proceeds to flash her impressive 36D at her mummy.





"Is that because I'm blonde, mummy?"





"No darling, it's because you're 25."

This an interactive joke, so have a piece of paper and pen handy.





A blonde woman walks into an auto parts store and the parts man asks how she is doing and what can he do for her. She replies, "Fine, I need a seven-ten cap for my car." The man asks," A seven-ten cap? Where does it go, I've never heard of such a thing?"





The blonde angrily replies, "It goes on top of the engine and don't think just because I'm blonde I don't know what I'm talking about!!" Perplexed, the parts man asks if she would draw him a picture and maybe help him out in figuring out what it is she needs.





Reader: Draw the number 710 in the middle of the paper and draw a circle around the whole number. Now turn the paper upside down.

A blonde suspects her boyfriend of cheating on her, so she goes out and buys a gun.





She goes to his apartment unexpectedly and when she opens the door she finds him in the arms of a redhead. Well, the blonde is really angry. She opens her purse to take out the gun, and as she does so she is overcome with grief. She takes the gun and puts it to her head.





The boyfriend yells, "No, honey, don't do it."





The blonde replies, "Shut up, you're next."


----------


Two blondes are walking down the street: One notices a compact on the sidewalk and leans down to pick it up. She opens it; looks in the mirror and says, "Hmm, this person looks familiar." The second blonde says, "Here,let me see!" So the first blonde hands her the compact. The second one looks in the mirror and says, "You dummy, it's me!"

The kindergarten were now in the first grade. Their teacher wanted them to be more grown up since they were no longer in kindergarten. She told them to use "grown up words" instead of "baby words." She then asked them to tell her what they did during the summer. The first little one said he went to see his Nanna. The teacher said, "No, No, you went to see your grandmother. Use the grown up word." The next little one said she went for a trip on a choo-choo. The teacher again said, "No, No, you went on a trip on a train. That's the grown up word." Then the teacher asked the blonde what she did during the summer. She proudly stated that he read a book. The teacher asked what book she had read. The blonde puffed out his chest and in a very adult way replied, "Winnie the ****."

Need input on family problem, missing items when sister came to stay.?

My sister and husband came to stay. I had to leave on business before they left. They live in UK and I in CA. We all had a great time. I came back and my best very expensive shoes were missing, we take the same size. These shoes were so special to me, and I am rather frugal. They were worn to special events and matched my outfit. Last night I got dressed to go out and my shoes were missing..I called Uk at 6 am, to ask if her husband helped her pack and accidentally put my shoes in her case...no, she says, look in the garage if you have looked everywhere else. Why the garage? and she said "we do strange things when we get older".....no one has been in the house since they left, no cleaning person, NO ONE! I feel I cannot and will not communicate with her further...we are middle class lot, sister is a school teacher I am a registered nurse, I have given her my shoes previously, I am generous with her, she is my younger sister. What do you 'all' think?

Need input on family problem, missing items when sister came to stay.?
Are shoes worth your relationship with your sister? I'd have to say no, your relationship with your sister is more important.





Is your relationship with your sister a free-ticket for her to use or steal any of your stuff, and abuse your relationship? No, but she's still your sister. You have no proof and all you have is a very unhealthy and developing sense of paranoia and suspicion.





You might be right, she might have stole them, but you did ask her if she "took them by accident". I would let it go, cuz shoes are not as important as your sister. If it happens again, then I'd bring the issue up as a "Your my sister... but I can't have you abuse that, and this suspicion and fear is ruining our relationship".





If your sister has any shred of intelligence she'll understand that you won't be abused without bring it up in the future... and hopefully she cares enough about your relationship, not to ever let the issue have a chance to come up again.
Reply:Ask your sister not her husband.

My pointe shoes are completely dead! And i have to special order my pointe shoes, and they arnt going to be in for another 4-6 weeks are their any tips for making dead pointe shoes last another 4-6 weeks?Thanks!

Pointe shoe problem?
My pointe shoes also die easily. I use jet glue. It is amazing! Its best if you put it on after you wear them one or two times so you can retain the shape of "newer" pointe shoes. Just put it in the box or on the shank and it will make your shoes last longer.
Reply:you might want to try going to the store and getting another pair of pointe shoes that you can use until your other ones arrive. you probably wont find any that are too great, but theyll be better than dancing in completely dead pointe shoes. you could try wood shellac (sp?) its supposed to help a lot. ive never tried it, but i know a lot of professionals that use it and they say that it makes their pointe shoes almost as hard as new again. but i doubt their pointe shoes were completely dead before. you could try it though.
Reply:4-6 weeks is a long shot. you might want to dry some jet glue if only the shank is soft, but once the box goes, you're really better off trying to find something suitable just to hold you over until the new ones come in. what kind of shoe do you wear? and is there a dance shop nearyou? selling and fitting pointe shoes put me through college, i;d behappy to make some suggestions if you want to get a pair just so you have something to use in the meantime.

Tips for someone wanting to start skateboarding?

I've always wanted to skateboard so bad because the tricks I watch these people do are just amazing!


I have a board that's nothing special but what shoes are the best for skate boarding (I have airwalk which I've heard are decent) and what are some other tips?


Thanks so much!

Tips for someone wanting to start skateboarding?
Its cool that u want to skate board.


1st get a good board, not those cheap waltmart ones. Figure out if u ride regular or goofy. Get good shoes like DC, Etnies, DVS ect. But buy guy shoes, the girls skate shoes dont last as long as the guy ones, and they dont grip as well either. Than try getting a helmet so u dont hurt yourself. Learn some tricks, and know the names, or u will get called a poser. Dont wear ambercombie or (how ever u spell it) hollister or any of that prep brands. Buy clothes from like element, volcom, fox ect. and have fun!!!


oh, and i almost forgot, try talking bad about people, its fun xD
Reply:If you want to start to start skateboarding, Here are some tip you might want to accompilished. Safety always comes first so, make sure you always where a Helmet and elbow and knee pads. Also, if you just starting to skateboard I would just go up and down the sidewalk and the street, but make sure there is no cars. Then, WHen come really good and feel comfortable you can try some rails or ramps. Good Luck! I hope these were a big help.
Reply:well after you lean your ollie and simple stuff like shuv-it go hit a skate park and learn to ride the ramps and do easy stuff like rock to fakie, axle stall. then go get a real board cuz im assumming u probaly got one from walmart or something so go to ur local skateshop and buy a whole new board cuz itll help alot cuz walmart boards suck and got no pop or grip. then get some real skate shoes, airwalks have no grip and they are considered "poser" shoes by many real skaters. get a good real skate shoe like supra,fallen,osiris,emerica. and last when ever u are doing ay trick remember keep ur weight balanced on board (dont lean off to one side) and stay over ur board and most important just have fun ull be real good i no time.
Reply:Don't fall off the board


lol


well be careful


wear a helmet the first few times (or all the time)


because when one of my friends started


she was rushed to the hospital because she hit her head


and she wasn't wearing a helmet


and start off slow


don't rush into the tricks right away
Reply:you should wear any tyoe of flat sneakers, like etnies. and just start using the board everyday to get used to it. when you go to the store skate instead of driving. the more confortable you are with the board the faster you can start tricks
Reply:I've actually just started long-boarding! Doing all those fancy tricks takes LOOOTS of practice... long boarding isn't even all that hard. I'm really clumsy and I can do it! I hear Vans shoes are the best.
Reply:You have the board and shoes, now all you need to do is practice alot!
Reply:don't start
Reply:start going to your local skate park and just start hanging out..kids will teach you for free
Reply:yea you need a durable shoe

Is it a good idea to go to go backpacking in Glacier National Park in late May?

Two friends and I are putting together a backpacking trip for late May. Since our other plans fell through, we're looking for some good alternatives.





We've all got a TON of camping experience (including plenty of cold weather trips and 15-32F nights). We've also got a decent amount of backpacking experience. We don't have a whole lot of back country mountain experience.





What back country trips are possible at Glacier NP in late May? Is it a good idea, or are the trails too dangerous this time of year? If we do go, do we need any special equipment. Snow shoes?

Is it a good idea to go to go backpacking in Glacier National Park in late May?
Late May is definitely not an ideal time for backpacking in Glacier. It's still pretty snowy. Trails can be hard to find, steep snow slopes would almost definitely have to be traversed. Unless you're comfortable snowshoeing and using an ice ax in case you fall, I wouldn't say it would be the most fun trip ever. It's a weird time when things are melting, and if snow is slushy than an ice ax really wouldn't help you much anyway. Alot of the backcountry campgrounds will still be snow covered as well.





Alot of the lower elevation areas (far east and far west sides of the park, like Apgar and St Mary) will be melted out by then, but the higher elevation parts (like Logan Pass) will definitely still be snowed in. The road that crosses the park, necessary to get from one side to another, is usually not open until early to mid June. Also, most of the better hikes go up high or cross mountain passes and will still be snow covered. Be advised as well that the weather is still very unpredictable this time of year, and it will definitely still get cold at night.





You'll get the benefit of snow capped mountains, gushing waterfalls, and no crowds- but you will also be severely limited in what you can see and do, both by car and on foot.





If you're planning a trip, I'd suggest waiting until at least mid to late June. Visitation starts really picking up for the summer around 4th of July weekend, but thats usually around the time that all the trails are completely melted out as well. If you're trying to plan a trip for this time of year, I'd suggest seeing some of the national parks in the more southern states, where you don't have snow to worry about and the oppressive heat hasn't quite set in yet.





Feel free to email me if you have any more questions.

My son age 12 years, does not walk properly, while walking he keeps the right foot inside?

there is no problem with the left feet, on consulting a Orthopedic, he diagnoses the problem as "intoeing" of the feet and suggested some exercises to be followed at clinic to be done by a physiotherpist or can be done at home. The exercises were followed for 6 months at clinic but without any result. The problem is still persisting. What should i do. The problem looks more visible when my son wears shorts. This problem is noticed right from his birth. Initially doctors were telling me he has flat feet problem and suggested to get special types of shoes, which we had followed. Now a well known quack is telling me that i should massage his leg leg/feet from downwards to upwards direction with Olive oil daily twice in a day as there is some stiffnes in the veins, which is nowadays is being followed. Please help as i am not getting any result. HELP PLEASE

My son age 12 years, does not walk properly, while walking he keeps the right foot inside?
Take him to an orthopedic specialist,he might need corrective surgery.My son always walked on his toes his tendons were to tight they had to release them with surgery now he is fine.

What are the basic I need on a ski trip? (first timer)?

Going to New Mexico and have never been in real snow before. Are ski boots necessary? special socks? Tennis shoes? Goggles? Thanks so much!

What are the basic I need on a ski trip? (first timer)?
Here is what I wear





under armor(shirt)


regular shirt


sweatshirt (if its really cold)


winter jacket


under armor(pants)


regular pants


snow pants


heavy socks


ski boots (you can' get your foot in a ski if you don't have these)


ski helmet


ski goggles


scarf


gloves or mittens








If its really cold you should get hand and feet warmers. They go inside your gloves or boots and get really warm for a long time!
Reply:I go every year so i've got some experience. As ski boots go, unless you have completely stopped growing don't buy your own because you'll grow out of them. Just rent some. That's what a lot of people do including myself. I would wear insulated under garments that you can get at a place like sun %26amp; ski sport. You definetely want some good warm ski socks because that is the part, along with the hands that gets the coldest. Also make sure that you invest in a good pair of gloves, as your hands can get very cold, and that can make a day of skiing miserable. If it is snowing as you are skiing down the mountain and you dont have a pair of goggles you'll be very regretful. And make sure you get a good pair so that they dont fog up. You'll probably want something that you can wear over your entire head (my favorite brand is Turtle Fur) to keep your face warm. To just walk around to go eat or something, just buy some snow boots, cause snow will get in tennis shoes and be very cold. Hope i was helpful.
Reply:Ski boots are only necessary if you will ski. Socks should be wool or other wicking type material, not cotton. Goggles are for eye protection and highly recommended, but sunglasses may be substituted if you are on the decks of the lodges. Tennis shoes, only on the tennis courts or inside, cold wet tennies are miserable in Texas or San Diego, much less New Mexico. For foot wear outside, Sorel makes a good all weather boot. For inside, dancing shoes for the dance floor, so forth. Enjoy. Jim.
Reply:well if your a first timer either get lessons or have a good skiier with you. well heres what i'd take.


check weather conditions, cold id say under armor or something to that over the UA where a longer shirt or shirt that really doesnt matter that much %26amp; then a hoodie if you want and then obv a winter coat, gloves, make sure waterproof, and sweat pants would do and then like snow pants, i would wear thermal socks dont have to but if not id double layer ..





if its like mild out then under armor %26amp; shirt %26amp; hoodie then everthing else and you could take away stuff if its not cold out.





make sure nice soft shoes after youll feet will hurt a little and bring some nice hot coco for after and yes ski boots you need they'll have them to rent!


HAVE FUN!
Reply:mmmm.... i had to same ordeal. i had only been skiing twice on icey snow from missouri, then i was to go to colorado for real snow. I'd say a hat, bibs, heavy coat, and WATERPROOF gloves for sure. You may want googles or even sunglasses because sun reflects off of snow. You would only want one pair of thick socks so your feet don't sweat. i don't know about a scarf. too easy to lose and maybe chokeful. if you know you need something for your neck, maybe a neck warmer. you will need a pair of skiies and boots to go with. rental? One pair of sweats underneath. Also, bring the least amount of keys and maybe a watch that goes into a pocket, not a wrist watch.





hope you have fun!





also, try not to overdress, or you may sweat and wind up even colder.

Shoe problems!!!?

i have these special insoles for my shoes because i have "fallen arches".





problem is, i can never get any shoes that fit them. they make your heel really high up i need shoes that have deep heel bits.





my doctor gave me a list of shoes to try, but theyre all old granny shoes. please help! right now i just dont wear the insoles but i know it's bad for me because my legs hurt all the time!

Shoe problems!!!?
Hmm...You could try little ankle boots. I have a pair from Walmart and they're pretty cute, they don't look granny-ish and they go with just about everything I own. I don't know if they carry them anymore in this particular style but the brand is Faded Glory, style "Josie". Try Vans as well. I was just looking at mine and they look like they have a deeper heel.





Shop around and compare the height of heels in different shoes. Try Kohl's, they have tons of styles.





If you're looking more for high heels, I don't have an answer for you. I think most high heels are pretty short anyhow.
Reply:You need custom made shoes. I should know, my sister is a shoe maker and she does them any which way it will help your feet...

12 month old not walking yet?

My 12 month old is not walking yet. She has taken a couple of steps by herself with out holding onto anything. I was wondering if there are special types of shoes that would help her start to walk? Are there any other special techniques? I have tried a walker, but I think that might be delaying her walking. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks.

12 month old not walking yet?
If she is already taken a couple of steps, then give her a month and she should be walking good..I also found with mine that not wearing shoes was better when they were learning to walk. She sounds like she is right on track tho..enjoy it while you can..once she does start walking is when the trouble starts..lol...best wishes
Reply:Don't worry about it. She's doing fine.





Take the shoes off and ditch the walker. I let my girls stand in their bare feet by the couch. They could grab on and take steps without tipping over.
Reply:Stride rite has the best walking shoes for babies, and be patient it'll happened : )
Reply:don't worry, they walk when they're ready. mine didn't walk until 14 months. she never crawled though, either. and now she's 16 months walking. (still never crawled) there ARE special shoes but they made it harder for my daughter to walk than easier.
Reply:She will in her own time.
Reply:I have always been told bare feet feet is the best way for a child to learn to walk, unless your outside or have hard wood floors. However, My daughter was walking at 11 months and what I did was let her be bare foot in the house (I had hard wood floors) she was able to keep her balance better because the shoes add extra weight and it makes it harder for children to left their feet to take steps. Thank about it if you have weight extra weight on something you already are having problems lifting up you'll never be able to do it. NOW for OUTSIDE, I went to a Store Called STRIDE RIGHT!!!! They have the best shoes, light weight and the support babies need around the ankle and foot. Especially the arch in their feet is different then all kids and they well fit your child with the best shoe(they need to be fit proprer), Trust ME!!!!! Good luck and best wishes. Let me know what you do, I understand. Get rid of the Walker and get a ridding toy, like a car she can push with the feet to help bulid the legs.
Reply:she will walk when she is good and ready, all children are different, and some it takes longer than others, other walk really early on. Don't worry about it, just enjoy her!
Reply:12 months isn't the beat-all, end-all time for babies to walk. They do things in their own time. Don't worry, it sounds like she's well on her way. She'll walk when she's ready.
Reply:Try having her reach for something like a toy. I am sure that after a couple of days of practice, she will get in the habit
Reply:Every child develops in their own time, and some are more cautious than others. Relax and enjoy your child and encourage her. If after a while longer you are still concerned that there might be a problem then talk to her doctor, that's what they are there for.
Reply:It always varies I didnt start walking until I was 16 months
Reply:Relax, every new parent is anxious for their baby to grow and develop quickly. Your baby is doing things at her own pace as she should be and pushing her will only have a negative affect on her development. My two sons began walking and talking at very different ages.


My neighbor asked me the same question about 4 months ago and I told her that after her daughter started walking she will regard these as "the good old days."


Last week she said I was right.
Reply:First of all don't worry . . .





We taught our daughters to walk at 9 months by sitting facing each other and held their arms out and had them walk back and forth between us. We gradually moved further and further apart and they both walked . . .





It was a great moment because we were both there and shared another one of those "firsts" together . . .





They are now 25 and 22 and we can't get them to shut up . . . wish we would have waited to teach them how to talk . . .





Good luck . . .
Reply:You have to be patient. I was the same way. My started walking very close to the end of the 12 month mark. Every baby and they do things at different times.
Reply:Babies develop in their own time. You have nothing to worry about as she is clearly trying to walk, and she will get there soon enough. Don't try and rush it because the minute shes walking, she'll be getting into everything %26amp; you won't be able to let her out of your sight for a second! What you could do about shoes is cut a thin piece of foam and stick it to the soles of her shoes, because babies first shoes are often, well, really uncomfortable for the baby, it's like walking on ice for them (I read this in an article). So the foam helps to make it a bit more comfortable for her, just scrape it off and replace it whenever it gets really tattered. You should only have to do this for the first 3 - 4 months until shes a really confident walker.
Reply:Despite what some posters will say you can't TEACH a baby to walk. You can encourage them and give them lots of opportunities but they will not do it until they are good and ready. A walker can delay walking because it does not put as much weight on the legs therefore the legs do not get as strong. Kind of like walking with a crutch.


The best thing is for a baby to be barefoot. They will walk much more confidently in bare feet than in shoes because they can feel and "grip" the ground/carpet with their toes and it strengthens their feet and legs. A baby does not need shoes unless they are going outside and then they need something supportive but flexible.


It is totally fine for her not to be walking on her own yet. 1 year is an average, meaning some babies walk at 9 months, some not until 15 months. If she has taken a couple steps then she is getting ready to go. Just give her some time, space and encouragement and she will take off whenever she feels she is ready.
Reply:Every child is different. She will start walking when it's time. You are right about the walkers. They only inhibit instead of helping. If you pick her up alot and carry her around she may not feel the need to walk yet. Also if she is an only child there are not a lot of feet moving around her so it's just taking her longer to catch on. Don't worry she'll get the hang of it and then you won't be able to stop her.
Reply:take her shoes off and put food or a toy in front of her my anuts baby is walking in the store by her self and she is 13 mounths and we did that so its worth a try
