Q: I try to make curls with my flat iron but it doesnt happen . How many grad should my flat iron be ? 190 ???

I'm riding the BT021 (180 55 17).I commute 600 mi/wk. Ride is mainly highways at 80+, and the Ortega (moderate twisties) every day. I have over 10K on the front, and about 7500 on the rear (got a nail rip at about 2500, so only replaced the rear). I still have a lot of tread left on the rear. At this rate, I plan to replace both at 12k. I'm considering the metz based on feedback from other riders; however, I can't complain about the BTs. The comment about maintaining air pressure consistently cant be stressed enough. I ride between 37-39 (cold) psi on the front, and 39-42 (cold) psi on the rear. I'm riding a R1200RT so not nearly as quick and aggressive as the R1, and weight / geometry differences will probably affect wear comparisons. HTH

Q: I have an iron deficiency in my blood and I need to find some good sources of iron. Any suggestions?

There are plenty of foods that have Iron such as: Red Meat Dark Leafy Greens such as Spinach and Collard Egg Yolks Dried Fruit Mollusks such as Oysters, Clams and Mussels Artichoke's beans and lentils Liver and poultry Giblets Your body actually will inhibit the absorption of Iron if you consume frequently or pair your foods with things like Red Wine, Tea, Whole Grains, Bran and Soy products. Some things that you can eat to help the absorption of iron are Fruits such as Oranges, Strawberries, Cantaloupe, etc. White Wine, red Meat and, many vegetables are helpful as well. But depending on your life style it may be just as easy to take a supplement but be sure to take any Iron tablets with food or your sure to upset your stomach/

Q: Our teacher gave me a sheet to study on for a test and i dont know the answer to 1 questionit says to discuss how the chemical differences between the iron in the tablets and the iron in the nails are related to their uses

Yes, if you know how. You have to drain all the water first. Don't be surprised if the pipe falls apart while you're doing this. The first law of DIY is something will go really wrong. Be prepared for it.

Q: Can you straighten up permed hair with an iron? Is it damaging?Jessie xx

like you mean a clothes iron? or like a flat iron for hair? cuz either way its gonna be damaging. anything you do to your hair is damaging. but a little secret. if you have permed hair and want it straight and dont have a hair straightener. u can use an iron. i wouldnt recommend it. because it can be more damaging then a regular hair straightener but if u decide to use it. go to a beauty supplies store. or a salon and pick up a shine spray. itll keep the hair somewhat protected and will also make it shiny. just when using shine spray DO NOT use near scalp area because your hair will look like a grease pit. good luck hun.

Q: When people say that certain foods are rich in iron or talk about iron in the blood, is it actually microscopic deposits of real iron that they are talking about. This is probably a stupid question, but any input is appreciated. Thanks folks :D

The iron in your blood are in the form of atoms associated to a protein (hemoglobin) which is found in the red blood cells, and their job is to carry oxigen and carbon dioxide from the lungs to the cells and vice versa, respectively. Since it's forming a molecule, blood iron is not magnetic, therefore magnetotherapy is bull. And there are not stupid questions, only stupid answers.
