Marijuana Use Among U.S. Teens More Common Than Cigarette-Smoking, Survey Finds - 1 views

  • This marks the first time that marijuana use has eclipsed cigarette smoking. One expert says that a factor in rising marijuana use is that teens perceive the drug to be less harmful for their health than cigarettes.
    • Carolina Torres
       
      It not only seems less harmful, most teens don't care about the effects of marijuana. So they smoke it more then cigarettes because most of them know whats inside of cigarettes. So in a way, marijuana is better.

Question About Herpes. - 0 views

  •  
    Herpes can "reactivate" and cause other diseases which is really interesting because I thought you could get rid of herpes and then it would be done. So you should always watch what you put in your mouth and what you touch before you touch your mouth.

    Can you get herpes on any other body part ? Or just your mouth?

  •  
    I wonder how some people cannot dream.
  •  
    I agree with the statement, "If you go to bed with a troubling thought, you may wake with a solution, or at least feel better about the situation.". I feel like if I have a problem after dreaming about what could go wrong and sleeping I feel much better about the situation.

How To Hit Home Runs - 0 views

  • That's due to the spin of the ball. Curve balls are thrown with topspin so the top of the ball rotates in the direction of flight. When hit by the bat and thrown into reverse, curve balls automatically have backspin which gives them lift and carries them further. Fastballs are thrown out with backspin, so they spin the other way when hit, have less lift and sink faster.
    • Zech Biship
       
      The best ball to hit is a Curveball
  • To generate more backspin, the batter should hit the ball a bit below the center, although it's unlikely batters have much time to think about that, Hubbard said.
    • Zech Biship
       
      Hit the ball in the lower part of the center to get the best results

Bat Speed -- Baseball Hitting Forum - 0 views

  • a ball hit at a 45 degree angle would travel the farthest. This is true if there is no wind or the air is not a factor. But the best angle to hit the ball with air as a factor is 39 degrees.
    • Zech Biship
       
      Without wind, a 45 degree angle is best. With air the best is 39 degree.

The Major League Baseball Swing (Rotational Hitting) - 0 views

  • When a pitcher lets go of a ball at their head, the ball usually comes in at a 10 degree downward angle. The best way to hit this ball is to use a 10 degree uppercut swing path with the bat.
    • Zech Biship
       
      If the ball is coming in at a 10 degree downward angle, then you need a 10 degree upward cut.
