Swimming relies on the nearly neutral buoyancy of the human body. On average, the body has a relative density of 0.98 compared to water, which causes the body to float.

I love all shades of blue and I'm trying to figure out the right one to paint my living room.
I would suggest a bright baby blue or maybe a royal blue.
I like soft beachy colors the best so nothing too stark. Azure is a shade of blue that is kind of like the shy on a clear day. I would love something like that but more subdued.
Those sound like good options. I like sky blue and ocean blue. Aquamarine. | Blue
Blue is one of the three primary colours of pigments in painting and traditional colour theory, as well as in the RGB colour model. It lies between violet and green on the spectrum of visible light. The eye perceives blue when observing light with a dominant wavelength between approximately 450 and 495 nanometres. Most blues contain a slight mixture of other colours; azure contains some green, while ultramarine contains some violet. The clear daytime sky and the deep sea appear blue because of an optical effect known as Rayleigh scattering. | day or night
Written blue on white it's plain to see

What's the difference anyway
Baby till your heart belongs to me
If I had some influence girl
With the powers that be
I'd have them fire that arrow at you
Like they fired it right at me
And maybe when your heart and soul are burning
You might see
That every time I'm talking with you
It's always over too soon

Hello, I'm trying to watch what I eat and lose wieght. Any tips?
Me too. I know that diets can help stable body weight and improve health, but I can never find a good one.
Yes food that tastes good is often bad for you lol. I would like to find healthy alternatives.
There are so many different kinds of diets. Low-fat, low-carbs, low-calorie.....it just gets so confusing.
Do you know what the difference really is between all those "low" diets? I mean, what are carbs anyways? | (especially berries) are often allowed.
There is a lack of standardization of how much carbohydrate low-carbohydrate diets must have, and this has complicated research. One definition, from the American Academy of Family Physicians, specifies low-carbohydrate diets as having less than 20% carbohydrate content.
Low-carbohydrate diets are associated with increased mortality, and they can miss out on the health benefits afforded by high-quality carbohydrate such as is found in legumes including grain legumes or pulses, and fruit and vegetables. | I don't really care what they think to be honest", "I'm happy with my weight, I feel good, "I do have to lose some body fat but it comes with time, being injured doesn't help, "Give me time and hopefully I can slim down a little bit but I'm feeling healthy."

The mile is considered a small distance foot race? I would think that would be 2 miles?
Really? The race is called the mile? what else can you tell me about it as I have never heard of it
I used to run 3 miles a day when I lived in Hamilton, Ontario, a port city.
A mile is 1760 yards thats longer than it seems I think | Out-Run 3-D
Out Run 3-D is the second in a quartet of "Out Run" driving video games developed for the Sega Master System, and was released in 1989. Although based on the original and similar in design, it is a separate game and not (as its name might otherwise suggest) a three-dimensional version of the original "Out Run".
