Lip piercing, metal barbell or plastic retainer?
I want to get my lip pierced, but I’m currently working at a toy store. So I wanna know can I use an acrylic retainer, instead of a metal barbell on a fresh lip pierceing?
Firstly, you should never use acrylic/plastic in a fresh piercing- It’s porous and is a breeding ground for bacteria.This is NEVER good for a fresh piercing. You can buy glass retainers which are MUCH better for the lip piercing, and do the same job. If you put the retainer in though, you cannot keep chopping and changing between labret bar and retainer, youll have to keep the retainer in until it is healed. Your piercer will more than likely pierce you with a glass retainer but you might have to go and buy one from another shop because from my experience most piercing studios dont seem to carry glass retainers. Also, You should check with your manager if your actually allowed to wear just a normal labret bar. I used to work in Toys R us, and they let me wear my snakebites(2 lip piercings), and another girl who used to work there had a labret piercing and stretchers in her ear. And LOTS of people had eyebrow piercings there. Toys r us have a policy (in the uk anyway) where you can actually have piercings, and actually quite a lot of toy shops seem to let you…unusual i know but you should check.

Selecting a Fitness Facility
In order to achieve your ultimate goal, you need to have some knowledge of health and fitness as well as motivation. While this does not mean you need to join a local gym, you will find it’s more successful.
When you’re in search of a new gym, you should take the time to find one that is compatible with your life, fitness goals and special interest or needs.
To determine your fitness goals you must ask yourself if you want to lose weight, bulk up, or tone. Whatever your goals may be, not every fitness facility will be able to suit you; and although it may, another one may fit you better than the other.
Most of us will likely join the first gym we visit or heard good things about, but it’s important to consider your options before registering.
Does the facility fit your schedule?
It’s important that the facility is open when you’re available. Be sure to check with the facility to make sure their hours fit your schedule. It is also important to make sure that the equipment you would like to use is available at the time you workout.
Equipment
It’s essential that the facility has the equipment needed to help you reach your fitness goals. Make sure they have enough weights to exceed your maximum ability. Check to make sure they have plenty of free weights. Check the condition of their equipment; benches, barbells, dumbbells, racks, and cardio machines. See what types of cardio equipment they have to offer; treadmills, elliptical machine, stair climber, stationary bikes, rowing machines, and spinning bikes.
Cleanliness
It’s important to make sure that the facility is kept clean. This includes the facility overall as well as the equipment. It’s not a good idea to lie on the bench that another sweaty individual just finished their workout on. Make sure you spray down the bench or piece of equipment to be sure.
Classes or Programs
A lot of facilities offer a class or program which is highly motivational and upbeat. Be sure to check with the facility to see what they offer and on what days. Ask for an updated schedule and see which ones interest you the most.
Do you need a babysitter?
If you have children, there may be times when you find it hard to get someone to watch them while you workout. Most facilities have arrangements for you. Be sure to check out the facility to make sure they have enough interesting toys for your children. Make sure the hours of the childcare are available when you’re working out and check to see if this is included in your monthly membership.
Locker rooms
Make it a point to check the locker rooms to make sure there is enough storage for your belongings. Also check with a staff member to see if you need to bring your own lock or if they are provided for you. You may also be interested in checking the shower facilities and possibly a sauna, steam room or hot tub.
Staff and trainers
Be sure to make a good observation of the staff members and trainers. It’s important that the facility is staffed adequately. Are they in good physical health? Choose a trainer who trains you on what they believe in and who is dedicated to the success of your program.
Traveling
There are chains and facilities alike which allow your membership to travel to other facilities. Perhaps you’re on vacation or out of town for the weekend and would like the option to workout. Check with the facility to see if you are allowed access to other gyms.
Trial membership
Once you’ve used some criterion to narrow the facilities in your area, ask the facility if they would allow you a complimentary pass to see how you like their gym. Most gyms already have this available, but if they won’t offer you a free pass to come back to their gym, move on.
Now that you have an idea of what to look for in a gym you can begin searching for a facility in your area.

Would I suit a septum piercing?
I have been toying with the idea of getting my septum pierced with (a little horseshoe barbell) for a while now, but I’m not sure if it would suit me (I’m 14). Firstly, is my nose the right shape? And would I look too Indian? Here are some recent pictures:

Thanks.
P.S. About the “too Indian” thing, I really don’t want to be put into that stereotype because it’s just not me.
Firstly, any visible facial piercing is definitely out of the question -especially the nostril. I used to have a side lip piercing, but I had to take it out when my mum found out. One if the reasons that I really like the septum piercing, is that it is easy to hisde when required and the idea of a secret piercing sounds exciting!
I’m not sure if it would suit you, I haven’t really ever seen a septum piercing on anyone but Rob Flynn. I’d just get a normal nose piercing, but then you might look “too indian”.
I think you’d suit a lip piercing, like vertical laberet or snakebites.

Promised Land [CD-ROM] Queensryche’s follow-up to the double-platinum Empire is something of an acquired taste, but it’s well worth the effort. There’s considerable variety here; the heavy progressive-rock of “I Am I” and the ballad “Bridge” were hit singles, but there’s also the funk-inflected “Disconnected”, the edgy, spooky “Lady Jane”, and the piano-and-vocals “Someone Else?”. The title track is probably the stronge… |
