Q:
what is the difference between moderate and fat burning exercises?
A: When you exercise, you will burn fat. It doesn''t matter if it is moderate exercise or very vigorous exercise. Calories will burn at a higher rate with vigorous exercise but there are more risks involved with regards of injuries with vigorous exercise. For example, walking will burn calories at a rate that is slower than jogging or running. But jogging and running is harder on the joints and on the heart for those that aren''t at the fitness level to do those. Beginners should walk and not run. You will have to walk longer to achieve the same calorie burn, but it will be safer for you. Any...

Q:
what is the safest kind of water bottle to drink from?
A: Glass. these are expensive, but really nice to use. That is a crock of shit.. However, it is difficult to buy a water bottle that doesnt mention “BPA free.” I personally like nalgene brand.. Aluminum is supposed to contribute to alzheimer’s. @SpatzieLover is right. Glass is best, as long as it is lead free.. I’ve been using Klean Kanteen for years now. they are stainless steel and do not provide an odor or flavor. I really love them. Crossing my fingers that someone doesn’t provide me with a link to how stainless steel bottles cause cancer.. @tom_g Stainless is fine. Like @Mariah, I find the taste to be too

Q:
are school lunches really much different than when I was young?
A: I don''t think it makes THAT big of a difference. My school lunches weren''t healthy and they weren''t usually very tasty either. I don''t really know where the kids were that enjoyed eating them, really I don''t even know if anyone enjoyed them. But Taco Day was good. I think the problem is no one walks anywhere anymore, and no one exercises, and when they leave school instead of a cooked meal, McDonalds is dinner. what makes a difference isn''t what kids eat at school, it''s the monumental...

Q:
what do you do all day?
A: Sleep until noon, the regular waking up rituals, decide which household tasks I will work on, go online with the various sites I visit, make dinner, watch TV, work on my needlepoint project, and play with my grandsons if they are visiting. 0530 – 0700 Wake up, get dressed, and drive a long looong way to work… and not necessarily in that order. 0700–1130 Cutting metal, loading tools, breaking stuff, babysitting underlings, and trying to avoid getting killed. 1130 – 1200 Lunch! 1200 – 1530 (hopefully!) same thing as the morning, only with more caffeine in my system 1530 – 1630 (hopefully!) Driving home… and trying not to get...

Q:
Is there a difference between ''superior autobiographical memory'' and ''eidetic'' memory?
A: In my understanding – without taking the time to Google – eidetic memory is visual or photographic memory whereas superior autobiographical memory would be a facility for facts, experiences and details. I''ve heard people speak of having eidetic memory but don''t know how often it actually occurs. Yes, @janbb‘s description. Recall vs. imagery. I''d say I''m eidetic most definitely, my memory is like that of 12 elephants. lol I have an uncanny abilty to remember dates, times, facts, details, it''s hard to win an argument with me if your recall is less than total. haha edetic memory is different to photographic memory. Photographic memory is limited...

Q:
what would be the best items to have in a home first aid kit?
A: can''t live without neosporin! the most important thing you can do prior to putting together a first aid kit is getting trained in basic First Aid and CPR. there is no point having supplies that you wouldn''t know how to use in case of an emergency. Another important thing is to assess the situation. If it''s a minor incident, then FA kicks in. If you think you may be over your head, then consider seeking medical help. Remember, if the person is facing a LIFE THREATENING emergency, call 9-1-1 FIRST, and then start your FA/CPR efforts. ...
