Society & Lifestyle > Social Values & Norms How pornography harms society: 12 of 73
Define Pornography: Depicition of erotic behavior intented to cause sexual excitement.It seems pretty basic, but it's not. Ever see a TAG body spray commercial? A young guy getting straddled by his teacher in a plaid "Catholic Schoolgirl" mini skirt? It falls not under actual fornication, but it paints a much stronger picture... More..
Relationships & Family > Successful Dating Best ways to catch the attention of the opposite sex: 3 of 11
Confidence, it seems to embody sexuality at it's apex, and I don't mean showing the most or acting the worst. Just to be able to walk in a room, and give off the vibe that you belong, but aren't trying to take over.I'm 5'10", and have stood in a "forest" of friends who all stand well over 6 feet tall, and have been approached...

Politics, News & Issues > US News Do we mourn only for the Virginia Tech victims?: 7 of 22
We all too selfishly jump from cause to cause, similar from fad to fad or what ever seems to be "all the rage" at the time. It's sad that we even follow the trends with tragedy, but it's true. What happened at Virginia Tech was a massacre that we all hope will never be out done. But it is being out done every day.Our military... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Catholicism Is the Catholic Church protesting too much about 'The Da Vinci Code'?: 11 of 24
Of course the church is protesting too much. Anytime the church is protesting a Hollywood product, there's a little too much focus outside the realm of religion. Never mind quoting the Bible, this is just crazy.And without going into Darwin vs God, I think if there were a chance to disprove the life of Jesus or anything along... More..
Entertainment > Music Business Music file-sharing: An artist's perspective: 7 of 15
Yes, I am a unsigned artist and was shopped by a major label too, so I have seen the cutthroat end of things. Bottom line, this is a business, and nobody wants their business to be stolen from. Had any of the artists that went after Napster been a store, why would anyone think to walk in and start shoplifting? We can't blame ... More..
Sports & Recreation > Martial Arts Fantasy martial arts: Bruce Lee Versus the MMA: 2 of 4
Bruce Lee is synonymous with martial Arts, and he's an icon. Personally, I think the Little Dragon would have not competed at all, or for very long if he were to have stepped into a cage. The fighters in cages are fighting out of the physical aspects of martial arts, more of an aggressive mind set. Bruce took the time to shar... More..
Health & Fitness > Diet Programs The simplistic diet and regiment shared by an average joe: 1 of 1
I get asked about my diet, so I thought I would share some quick tips I live by:Nothing fried, no fast foods, no soda, and occasional alcohol, which means once or twice per month. I eat more meals (approx 6) in smaller portions, almost snack sizes. Carry around a protien bar, piece of fruit or small meals prepared to keep you... More..
Entertainment > Music Genres, Trends & Scenes Expand your taste in music: 17 of 31
Music, it's the soundtrack of our lives. The one thing that makes any soundtrack great is the diversity of sounds and moods. Ice-T, gangster rapper, had once said that he felt sorry for any one who listens to one type of music. I'm sure much of America couldn't have been quicker to pigeonhole a guy like that in to just the ra... More..

Home & Garden > Home & Garden (Other) Protecting your home from intruders: 10 of 15
In my home I use:Heavy duty security screen doors with the deadbolt and knob lock. I have on on the front door and the back door by the kitchen. Keep the door in from the garage locked as well at all times, and keep the garage door closed if you aren't going to be in the garage, even for just a minute. They do make the same i... More..
