Question about Basketball Rules?
I have a question about a rule in the NBA. I don't know all the ins and outs of basketball.
Say I have the ball, and I have already dribbled now I'm standing there on my pivot or whatever, and I have a defensive player push his body against me. I know you are allowed to body up, but isn't that to an extent? I was playing at the park and these kids were bodying up on me so hard I would lose my balance and nearly fall down. That's with me pushing back with all my might, but they were still knocking me over.
Is this allowed? Everytime they would just push me down and take the ball, anytime I tried shoving them off they would say I was the one fouling. I know stiff arms are fouls. But when people are pushing their entire body weight on you to make you stumble, I'd like to imagine there's rules against that.
Can you push your opponents to the ground with your body? Or can you only body up to the point that the offensive player doesn't lose balance, stumble and fall over?
Like, I body up on defense. But nothing like that. I thought that was illegal. But these kids said it's not.
1 AnswerBasketball7 years agoWhere does the flavor come from in a E-Cig?
I have a Volcano ecig, the inferno kit. I was wondering if the flavor comes from the fluid in the cartomizer or the fluid in the tube tank? I'm out of cartomizers but I want to try mixing some flavors together. If I mix them in the tube tank will that do it? Or do I need to mix them in the cartomizer?
1 AnswerOther - Health7 years agoNeed help with a tattoo! Please help?
So I'm a virgin to tattoos, but I've always wanted one and knew I would get one eventually. It just needed to mean something. So basically I want something to remember my old home. It burned down 16 months ago. I grew up there so it means alot to me. I lost everything in the fire. And I'm selling the property Tuesday so it's time to move on. I just want something small to always remember. I was thinking like just the date. Or maybe some sort of symbol of rememberance for fires or something. I would like it on my body somewhere. Preferably on the chest or back. Please give me some ideas!

2 AnswersGoogle10 years agoVery Big Mole Just Apperead Randomly?
So, I have a huge mole on my back. It just all of a sudden appeared. Its light brown like a mole but only at the end of it. and its a red swolen like a red zit is under it. But its to big. Length more than width to be a zit. But I was sitting here and I felt a itch on my back. I Itched it and noticed an ungodly zit like thing on my back. And it was bleeding a decent amount. I must have rubbed it on something to bleed cause I didn't scratch it prior to this. But that's it. I wasn't out in the sun. I don't lay in tanning beds. I don't smoke tobacco. I live a pretty healthy life. So i'm not as freaked out as I could be but I'm pretty freaked out by this. What is it? Should I get it looked at asap like tomorrow? Now? I have no idea what to do

1 AnswerFacebook1 decade agoDo I have Anxiety? Or what is going on with me?
This all started about 10 months ago, it feels like im high in a way but not really, my mind constantly thinks about everything it never calms down, i find it hard to sleep i have to reallly focus hard on the sound of my fan for the thinking to subside for a short period of time, i find myself staring off all the time and whenever i do its almost like i cant hear what people are saying to me at the time cause im in another world, but i stop when i change my focus point, my "anxiety or whatever" gets really bad after sex, and it gets bad if i get nervous, if a question gets in my head itll just keep replaying in my head over and over. i dont how else to explain it
and it has only ever gone away completely 4 times. for less than 5 minutes then came back. And the only way i know to relieve tension and when it flares up is to pop my ears. I've seen noone with this reliever so idk if its anxiety.
