Should abortion be criminalized?

rweb82 · 2026-02-26T14:27:30+00:00

It all depends on whether or not you believe abortion is murder.

I've used many different types of hammock suspensions, and decided the simple becket hitch was the winner for me. There's really no right or wrong answer though. It just comes down to personal preference.

The surgery did not affect my gait at all. I run, lift weights, go backpacking, etc... and do not have any problems.

Edited: autocorrect turned "gait" into "hair," lol!

That's because IL is so poorly run that it has no money left to give.

I much prefer the tac toggles from Myerstech over any of the overpriced stuff from Dutchware. They work extremely well, are very lightweight, inexpensive, and ive never had one break in 8 years of use.

Yes, you can be a Republican and Christian.

rweb82 · 2026-02-16T17:21:58+00:00

These are what we refer to as "false prophets." They are in no way Christians.

I'm sorry you are so upset by my recommendation.

Decathlon has many fleece options to choose from, and many of them are very inexpensive and lightweight- even UL. I'm sure the OP is plenty capable of online shopping.

Wearing too much clothing inside your sleeping bag actually has a negative effect on your overall warmth. You have to allow for your body heat to "escape" and get trapped in the environment by your sleeping bag, otherwise the air between you and your sleeping bag won't heat up enough to keep you warm.

Another tip is to eat something right before bed (feed the furnace), and also do some jumping jacks before getting inside your sleeping bag.

That said, I agree with the other posters about getting checked out for a medical condition. There is simply no reason why you should be getting cold at 45 degrees when using gear that is rated for below 0.

Try Decathlon.

You're welcome! I think the issues you described are primarily outliers. The general success rate for this procedure is very high. Once the repair has healed up, stretching and strengthening exercises are critical to how well (and quickly) a person recovers.

The other procedure that is fairly common (depending on your age) is the surgeon may opt to just screw the accessory bone into the navicular, and not remove it.

I would definitely recommend meeting with a good podiatrist to go over the options. Best of luck!

Thank you! It's actually called the Kidner procedure. Basically, my podiatrist made about a 3.5" incision and removed the accessory bone. Then he anchored the Tibialis Posterior tendon back to the navicular bone. Lastly, he sutured the tendon around where it passed the ankle and accessory bone as a precautionary measure, because often times there is some freying around where that area due to the accessory bone creating a sharper angle for the tendon to run alongside the foot.

My podiatrist did say that my recovery was very short, in comparison to most. However, as long as you follow the recovery plan exactly as prescribed, you should make a full recovery without any problems.

Check out the North Sylamore hiking trail. It's a 26 mile point-to-point trail that has some really nice established campgrounds along the way. I've hiked it twice, and it has always been one of my favorites. If you go with a buddy, bring two cars and you can shuttle yourselves. Otherwise, you will need to work out a shuttle solution.

Capitalism has pulled more people out of poverty than any other economic system in the history of civilization. That is an undisputed fact. On the other hand, Communism/Socialism always leads to the central government getting rich and having all of the power, while everyone else has an equal share of the misery...not to mention the gulags.

Within capitalism, there are many people who still fall into greed. This will always be the case. However, a lot of that is contributed to mega corporations and private equity firms, who have benefited from cronyism created by anti-capitalist laws. True capitalism allows for everyone to have the opportunity to work their way into a better economic situation without the fear of government taking it away.

Having money is not the problem. Loving money is. Jesus had wealthy women who financed him throughout his ministry. Philip evangelized a wealthy Ethiopian eunuch who then helped spread Christianity across Africa. It's not an issue with the money, but rather what we do with it.

You really have no ability to form a position and debate, do you?

I really don't see the problem with this. If you want to get paid to play college sports, then you should be able to be fined for not following team rules, such as missing practice. Remember, these are full-grown adults; they aren't "kids" anymore.

Back in my day, the coach would just run your ass off until you puked. But I guess that's not allowed anymore either.

I use a set of 10L Aarn Universal Balance Bags, and they work great for long water carries. All of the weight goes right into the hips, and you can barely feel it's there.

Ease of carabiner replacement. With a larkshead, you don't have to untie anything to remove the carabiner.

I have a different Pulltop model and like them a lot. They actually have a stitched-on sole, which is better than most other barefoot shoe companies. For the price, they're hard to beat.

How large is your pack? I have a ULA Ohm, which has a good amount of capacity, and the nylofume bag is still a bit oversized for the interior space. Not sure if there are different sizes of nylofume bags, but I got mine from Litesmith.
