You need to convert to a lower bitrate for the files to take up less space. Lowering the bitrate also loweres the sound quality but reducing it a little probably wouldn't be too noticable. I use this converter: http://www.dbpoweramp.com/dmc.htm. I also convert between wave and various file types...

>EMU oil? yuck >And really - let's slaughter more animals for human >consumption/vanity/etc - we don't do enough of that - let's >bring back commercial whaling, too! Animal products in general aren't for everyone.

I buy some natural shampoos from this place. http://www.drugstore.com/templates/stdplist/default.asp?catid=47490&cmbProdSort=rating&PLStart=0&trx=CTRL-0-PG&trxp1=-999&trxp2=4 They list the ingredients and have customer reviews so I feel like I know a little more than just grabbing something...

>What kind of oils are good for senstive skin? Oh good I was hoping someone would ask :) I love using oils on my skin, and while I don't worry about every little thing (there are far too many) some nasty things are easy to avoid and worth the little effort especially if the old way makes you...

Yes definitely! I changed all my skin and hair care products bout a year ago. I avoid anything with SLS (sodium laurel sulfate) in it and if you look it is in just about everything! There are lots of sites with list of the bad things, I posted one over here...

oh geez! A link might help huh? http://www.brinkzone.com/nutrition-theory.html

Here is a good aritcle on this. My dh and I have been debating this for a while. At a very basic level the calories in/calories out for weight loss/gain is right, but it is much more complex than that.

These are my favorite workout shorts: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B00027Y9TY/ref=ord_cart_shr/104-1301935-1710369?%5Fencoding=UTF8&m=A363XKZVKSMVXW&v=glance They are low rise with a wide band and not tight fitting around the legs. They're cheap too ;-)

I have always disliked circuit workouts. When I'm warmed up for cardio I want to do cardio, and not stop to pick up weights. Same for weights. I just don't switch gears that easily. I have noticed that I actually like bootcamp though. I never expected to like a circut workout, maybe I'm going...

""vegetable oils (which includes my beloved cold pressed olive oil ) are bad for you because they contain no fiber, are devoid of nutrients and are 100% fat."" Sorry but that statement just seems silly to me. True, oils are 100% fat and don't have fiber, but that doesn't mean we don't need...

What is the inseam on those Brooks pants? I didn't see it on the webpage or sizing pages? Also do they fit tight around the knee/legs? I like these kinds of pants for just wearing around but I always work out in shorts. I generally can't tolerate things fitting tight on my legs and have returned...

omg was that 400 lunges with 15 lbs in each hand??? ! You are an animal Toasty! Speaking of these I've been doing these for a while but I'm never sure if I'm doing them right. I usually go slow and get down pretty low, but then I feel it a little much in my front knee. How fast do you do...

Fitmom: I did the Harris-Benedict formula you had in your post and got a number like 40,000 !! If anyone is interestd it should be 655 plus the 3 other numbers, not *, here is a reference to the formula: http://www.shapefit.com/basal-metabolic-rate.html

I love Enya's music. She might be a little too common if you're looking for something obscure but she has some beautiful stuff.

I have an urban rebounder and I love it. My favorite thing to do is just put on good music and make up my own stuff. I've had and sold most of the UR workouts and G-Force. The rebounder workouts I like the best are the Champion Rebounding workouts by Jerry James. I like the instructor and the...

My system has ME on it too and it does suck. It's also going on 6 years old, like yours and that is ancient for a computer. There are some things you can do though to keep it running better. You should do a disk clean up, degrag your drives, and do a thorough scandisk once every few months...

""...all fit different even though they were all same size."" I've found this to be true even within the same style of jean. I was told that there is some variation because the jeans are cut in stacks and the the top of the stack is more true to size while the bottom is cut larger because of...

I've almost been guilty myself. I've searched for a topic I was interested in then found a post I wanted to comment on. You have to remember to check the date or you end up unknowingly replying to a very old post.

I think you can have any kind of hair you want at any age. Consider though that as you grow older what you want might change. I remember talking to a friend once about the way old people dress (bright polyester in general) hoping I never looked like that. We were talking keeping up with...

I was lukewarm to the book but I think it could be made into a really good movie. I read it shortly after I read the "Good Earth" by Pearl Buck (excellent book, no wonder it's a classic), and by then I think I was overwhelmed with negative emotion about how some cultures have traditionally...
