.... the results we desire. In part this is determined by our genetic makeup. Some people will be naturally stronger, faster, and more athletic than the rest of us, no matter how hard we try. For decades people have turned to nutritional supplements to give them an edge in athletics. However, this was most limited to vitamins, minerals, and the ever popular “weight gainer�, which consisted mostly of sugar and protein.

.... negative actually believe that a human being is alive when and only when a human being has fully developed? If this is true, then most of here are not alive. The human specie is only fully grown at adulthood, many of us here are not adults yet -- and by that definition, it wouldn't matter if your shot and killed on the street because "your not fully developed". We are a stage in development -- teenager -- just like a child is, just like a toddler is, just like an old man is, and just like a aborted child is. There is no magical transformation that occurs when a child is born. He has the same basic needs to survive before he is born, a .....

.... of getting breast cancer by 50%, and teenagers with no previous pregnancies that abort after the 8th week increase their probability by 800%. Unicef states that 250,000 women die every year because of legal and illegal abortions: 75,000 of them die of self-inflicted abortions; 75,000 die of convulsions; and the other 100,000 die of blood poisoning caused by an infection of the uterus. Therefore, if abortion is legalized there will be not only more fetal murders but also more mothers will die. None of the methods women use to abort are completly safe. One of the most common methods used is Suction Aspiration. The doctor uses a special tool .....

.... study by NAS done in 1982, the American Institute for Cancer Research (AICR) devised a guideline with four parts to help lower people's risk of developing cancer. The guidelines have been updated since then to reflect recent research on the link. The AICR guidelines are: 1.

.... dreaming" (Blackmore 363). Surveys and research have shown that 50 percent of all Americans have had at least one lucid dream in their life that they could recall (Lucid Dreaming 365). When a dreamer becomes lucid there are physical changes on the outside of the body and brain patterns also change. There are usually pauses in breathing and changes in heart rate. The amount of brain activity is more heightened than that of a regular dream, but less than when waking. It has also been observed that a person having a lucid dream shows more brain activity than a waking person under the influence of hallucinogenic drugs such as LSD (Luc .....

.... the cancer cells have penetrated the body. They are as follows: Stage I: A mole or growth on the top layer of skin. Stage II: This indicates that the growth is deeper, but has not spread anywhere else on the body. Stage III: This is when the melanoma has spread to a nearby lymph basin or other tissue. Stage IV: This is the most serious, where the mutated cells have spread throughout distant parts of the body. Countless reports have been done and released to the public on the dangers of too much exposure to the sun and skin cancer. This has almost been to no avail. I believe that in order to help teens realize the danger .....

.... child. Many people who are pro-abortion justify their beliefs through the concept that a fetus is only a blob of tissue until it is born, or the statement: life begins at birth.

Abortion is the destruction, dismembering and killing of a human life--an unborn baby. "But it is scientific and medical fact based on experimental evidence, that a fetus is a living, growing, thriving human being, directing his or her own development" (Fetal Development). A fetus is not just a blob of tissue, rather a fetus is Latin for "offspring .....
