Question by Kristin J: What happens to the kids that never get adopted?
It’s no secret when parents are adopting most of the time they want babies; something new and undamaged. I’ve always heard the older the kids get the slimmer their chances of being adopted get. What happens to the kids that NEVER get adopted? What happens when they reach 18? Do they get kicked out of the orphanages? Does the government help them go to college and make a life of their own?
Wow so many great helpful answers it’s hard to vote for the best. Thats really a horrible thing what these kids go through.

Unfortunately by then many of them are in trouble. Many are either pregnant and living with their boyfriend or in jail. The government does little to help other than financial aid and food stamps. Many form family bonds with the foster families they’ve had in their lifetime.

Question by man: Are there many Malay man or women learn Yoga? are there many muslim learn Qigong and taichi?

Best answer:

Answer by Zee..zzzz….
There is nothing wrong for muslims to practise any of it,
name it as yoga, qigong, taichi, pilates or whatever.
Plus, it is advisable to do any type of physical excersise for health benefit.

The issue that has been brought up is the concern of combining the physical movement with chanting mantra, that is supposedly wrong,
because it can lead us to the understanding that there are other God than what we believed in.

I guess, if you are a buddist and learning new type of exercise involving chanting phrases from Quran and praise our God, you must be uncomfortable too, as it is against you believe, isn’t it.

okay I went ahead and googled “yoga circulatory system” (which you can do too!) because I was curious about the specific ways in which yoga affects the system.
Here is a page with a link referring to the circulatory system and some details on how different poses benefit the system.
http://www.abc-of-yoga.com/yoga-and-health/yoga-for-circulatory.asp

I also found this link to a preview of a book that details some more: http://books.google.com/books?id=K5WaYzBYypkC&pg=PA50&lpg=PA50&dq=yoga+and+the+circulatory+system&source=web&ots=R1T6mGcMNW&sig=yaN0gp54AVKmlwwEZ3nm4NMHVms&hl=en#PPA50,M1
So try different combinations of searches, and don’t limit yourself to just the internet. Try the library, and ask about searching periodicals about your subject.
Good luck!

People are afraid of the unknown. If they would learn what these things were really about maybe they wouldn’t call them witchcraft like I’ve heard so many do.

Question by googlyeyes: Does practicing yoga for a long time increase your sense of smell?
I have been practicing yoga regularly for 6-7 years now. In the past few months I feel like I have become alot more sensitive to smell. Especially chemical odors from food and other people’s body/breath odor.

I don’t believe any scientific research has been done on this. It’s possible that taking yoga has improved your concentration and awareness and has helped you to pay more attention to the outside world. Good for you!
