I agree - they don't know the long-term ramifications
Posted By: of this drug yet.......and Texas making it...sm on 2007-11-09
In Reply to: Gardasil.... - MTinIL
texas made it mandatory according to the governor making it mandatory (Perry is his name, if I recall correctly) - and that was just PLAIN WRONG. You don't make this kind of thing mandatory and go against the parents wishes....
20 years down the road, we will REALLY see the ramifications of forcing this drug on young teen girls....

I agree! what are ramifications 20 years from now??
I remember mothers taking thalidomide in the 50s and babies being born with birth defects, shortened arms, et al. I remember the hepatitis B vaccine that if your child didn't get it, they couldn't get into public school back in the 1980s-early 1990s. That's a good vaccine - the hepatitis ones, wish they'd come out with one for hep C too.
Also, I find it absolutely fascinating that they can find a vaccine for the HPV SO FAST, literally within months, when they cannot find vaccines for other diseases, such as hepatitis C, AIDS, or lots of different cancers and other diseases.
The timing thing.......capise? Wonder what the ulterior motive REALLY is...hmmmm drug companies gonna make tons of $$ on this one?!?!??!? Makes me nauseous!!! Happy my girl is 25 and so we don't have to deal with this one, until at least she has babies......hope it's also not enforced in the state I live in which, thankfully, is not Texas.....no offense to you Texans - just for this issue I mean.
Have a great weekend y'all. 
Ok, but there are NO long-term studies!!!
And I don't know about you, but my daughter is NOT going to be a guinea pig for this vaccine!!! My daughter's doc keeps asking me to allow her to have this, but since they have no idea of the adverse reactions YEARS after the vaccine, there's no way I'm going to subject her to it. I really hope 10 years from now the girls that had Gardasil don't have problems with fertility or heaven forbid, have babies with birth defects because their parents let them be guinea pigs for drug companies!
you don't know the long term problems with it, but we know what happens without it! nm

Are you considering a long-term relationship
with this gentleman? If so, you might want to give some serious thought to his money issues as they could very well become your money issues.
His joke was probably just an attempt to be funny, though rather clumsy and thoughtless. Since it bothers you, you could discuss it with him and tell him why it made you angry and base your next move on his response.
It would be his actual money issues that would be of greatest concern to me.
Is it legal to evict a long-term tenant - sm
who has always paid the rent on time, simply because they want to 'remodel'? I've lived here for close to 20 years, and just today out of the blue, the manager walks up and hands me an eviction notice! I was like, "Huh????" and he said they wanted to "renovate". But my unit, only. I guess others have gotten new rugs, appliances, etc. as tenants have come and go, but I've been here forever (and pay rent that is considerbly below market). I've lived here forever, don't drink, never had a party, keep it pretty clean, etc. The heater, oven, fridge, bathroom fixtures, etc., are old, but still in perfectly good working condition. So, I asked if I'd be able to come back afterward, and the manager said they were going to raise the rent (to far more than I can afford) once the renovation is complete.
So my question is -- Do you think it's legal to evict a tenant just because you want to put in a new rug, new paint, etc., and charge more to the next tenant? I'm thinking about calling a lawyer, but don't know if I have a case or not. If I move, I'm going to have to go at least 60-70 miles away, in order to find affordable rent.
     
Cell phones - How dangerous is their long-term use?
Hoax or not, the long-term safety of cell phones is still very much in question! They are not innocuous, and emit harmful electromagnetic radiation in varying amounts. Just as policemen's radar guns laid in their laps have caused testicular cancer, so the incidence of brain tumors from cell phone usage has also been on the rise.
That very thing happened to my stepdad, a brain tumor & aneurysm right above his right ear, where he holds his cordless phone constantly. Cell phone signals decrease fertility of humans & animals alike, & Swedish researchers have proven that they are ESPECIALLY damaging to the brains of children! Cell phone-using kids are FIVE times more likely to get brain cancer. I gave mine up over 5 years ago & will never use another one on a routine basis. This issue is being covered up, but is certain to become the controversy of the 21st century, just as tobacco was in the 20th century.
I agree, I think as long as still living with parents
they should go by the house rules or go get their own place and their own bills. But, then I definitely do not think 1 a.m. is an unfair curfew. What the heck are they doing at that hour, anyway? :(
Agree 100%. As long as Kristy is singing
country type music, she is fine. She just has her own niche and thta is about all, she is not versatile like some of the others.
yes, agree...as long as they get their money they dont care about anything.
and that is exactly what we have done. our kids can only play in the backyard. no one is allowed over at all..unless they invite a school friend or something. i have gotten then a trampoline, teatherball, swing set...so they have no reason to want to go play with the other kids. i never even thought about this happening when we bought our home. i was raised in the country and never had neighbors. didnt realize how out of control it can get. anyway..thanks all for listening and advice.
I type this stuff all day long and I totally agree sm
that you need to get him into see another counselor - and it may be time for a medication to help with the anger outbursts. Med and therapy go hand in hand with this - ask for an immediate appointment - this is kind of a crisis sitution really when younger siblings are being hurt - it trickles down and you don't want them to have problems also. Best of luck!
What is your fav med term?
Salpingo-oophorectomy. Don't know why, it just has a ring to it.
The term you might be looking for....
attention hoor?
I use the same term and you and I both know
it means absolutely nothing at all and Paula getting in a twit and then Simon duh went right along with her.
Term papers
Does anyone know the going rate for typing term papers nowadays?
The usual term is
selective nerve root block.
Can you hear that?
Otherwise, just see what you get with googling
nerve block, sciatica, selective.
You must not come to Stars often, This is a term

When I hear the term
single mother, I always think you have not been marriedI To me any man who says this to ANY woman, don’t care whether married, single, divorced, widowed and each of us falls into 1 of those categories, unless you really know him well and know he is kidding and you have started off paying for things, this is probably how he is looking at you, being a sugar mamma to him.
Depends if it is long with pregnant pause um no. If it is long and juicy like an op YEP! Short ones

I'm with them. There is a term called metrosexual. Don't
!!!
Please don't use the term "trailer trash" (sm)
It offends me...children have no choice but to grow up where their parents raise them and many good decent people live in trailers. I grew up living in poor areas, part of the time in trailers. I was a good kid, good grades, tried hard to be a good person but got made fun of a lot and called "trailer trash" or "white trash". It is very unfair to group people all together in a big clump and stereotype them like that. I overcame the way I grew up, but to this day, if I decide I want to move into a trailer, I sure will.
Not the right term to use here. Amen against religion?nm

It's a term of endearment at my house
My grandmother is affectionately remembered as the California Bag Lady. She had a home (trailer in a trailer park) and a car. Both were stuffed to the windows with STUFF. STUFF that she might need some day. STUFF that she got for free. STUFF that was valuable. In reality, after she passed away, it was mostly STUFF that went to the dumpster. But she was so cute about it. I don't know exactly how to explain it, but it was who she was and I wouldn't have had any other grandmother! Yes, she had lots of bags! She was an artistic sort too, and she would draw beautiful pictures on the brown grocery store bags with chalk.
yeah, there's a term for revenge of this kind-it's
BC Powder Arthritis, but only in the short term. nm
;
What a wonderful term!!! I gotta start using that one!
xx
Oh my. I think it's a...well...sweet term. I'm curious why it bothers you?

the term *eliminated* brings horrible memories
*eliminate, exterminate* when it comes to talking about humans (even if the perp here in your article acted inhumane)...
horrible memories, i.e., The Final Solution from 1939-1945....
please find another word....thank you. 
I had it during my pregnancy a long, long time ago. Husband

WIRELESS NETWORK!!!- sounds like you are getting hacked (for lack of a better term)
You need to secure your network. Check outside your home at these times for a strange car. A neighbor with a teenage boy or girl using a wifi connection to access your network getting on a porn or gaming site that bills via a VOIP dial-up It can be done.
you want to make sure they cant access you need to secure your network with passwords and such and turn your router off at night when you go to bed no wireless = no connection.
Hope this helps feel free to email if you need some more info.
How long is too long to wait for Pap results?
This is a follow up Pap for an abnormal one a few months back. I have waited for the results for over a month and have called the office once. Any advised about being a patient patient - LOL. Its hard when your in this business, I think anyway, not to be more aggressive about stuff like this.
short arms, short-term memory loss...
I too suffer from Short Arm Syndrome. Add to that the short-term memory loss that middle-age brings and I have now discovered I need to lasso the &*%$ reading glasses around my neck or my day will be spent wandering in circles asking the dog where my glasses are.
I have two pairs, per advice of doctor. I do not wear glasses all the time, so he thought I was not ready for bifocals. My son gave me a wonderful eyeglass case for Christmas that is big enough to hold both pairs should I ever venture out of the house amongst the living.
I did manage to find some "sporty" looking around-the-neck-eye glass holder thingies - what DO you call those things? I'd use twine before getting those multicolored beaded ones. I have a neon coral one and an emerald green one. Too bad I can't find the former, I can't remember where I put it.
What an awesome post! I agree, agree, agree completely with you.
 You are right on the money in my book! 
I agree, try to live in another country, then you will also agree...nm
nm
absolutement! Agree! Agree! Agree!
Why is it so hard to understand this? HMOs are just middlemen who get everything balled up and costly!
How long?
Crap, havent heard- 1 hour this week or 2 like last week? Thanks
as long as a dog
is in its carrying bag, he is in his space, not yours. Some dogs are sooo tiny, it is not even noticeable. I know of people who use doggie strollers for such places. Frankly, I am leery of people who have this kind of attitude.
I don't know what took me so long.
You can actucally understand the words and there is a definite meaning to the song. Although, when I put country on my hubby and kids say "my ears are bleeding". Oh well, I work for an ENT, I can help them out. LOL
Wonder how long this goes on. nm
:
In the long run they say it's the same or
possibly cheaper to sod. But yes, the initial cost is a little scary compared to the first treatment with seed. But seeding can be never-ending, especially if you don't water enough. We should have done this in the fall, but that's when our dog was so ill.
But not for long
The poster below really gave some good advice. The behavior she describes is "him" to a T. I actually had almost forgotten about him until the Lacy Peterson story came out. Scott Peterson looked so much like him it creeped me out. Good luck.
Thank you so much - it's gone on so long (sm)
What are the traits of a passive-aggressive person?
I do believe my weight is a symptom of my marriage. It all started right from the beginning - I was fairly attractive back then and got asked out by men all the time. Yet right after I got married, there was this weekly lunch with his coworkers where all the guys and their wives/girlfriends met for lunch - he told me that I could not go because, "I'm not exactly proud of you." I don't know why I stayed at that point - there were no children involved yet - but I just felt like I had to try to make it work.
how long has it been
that she has cancer? She is probably trying to give you comfort as you give her. She is a sweetie.
so, how long did it take and
does he have to continue the medication to keep away the urge?
I went through this myself not too long ago -sm
Definitely keep up the salt water gargles. I used warm water with mine. Something that gave me nearly instant relief was Chloraseptic Spray. Hope you feel better soon!!
How long does it normally take to get
labs processed? Dr's office took lots of blood this morning to check everything, glucose, lipids, etc and said she'd call as soon as the results come in. What's a "reasonable" amount of time to wait?
How long have you had the cat?
xx
this is long
I went through this with my son, who is now 24 and drug free. Take your daughter to therapy, and anything else you feel necessary, if for no other reason than to assure yourself you have done everything you can. Try getting together with the parents of some of her "friends," (she doesn't have to know you do) and just try to keep one step ahead of her. I used to look around my son's room to see what I could find, any pot - I threw it away. You just have to keep telling her, you are not the enemy, you are on her side. It is very hard to go through, I know, but they do come out the other end and you have your child back.
How long has this been going on?
How long has your mother had this type of behavior. It sounds like these symptoms; inappropriate behavior, saying things without thinking about them first, might be a signal she has some sort of neurologic problem or the onset of a form of dementia going on. You might notice if your mother has been forgetting things lately, seems detached. If this is not her regular personality, and this is something new for her, then I would gently talk with her and ask her if she is worried, under pressure, or sees anything wrong with how she acts. She might have to see her doctor. My mother exhibited these signs and symptoms around age 60, and then later was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. However, if her memory is good, she is coping with daily life and is able to handle things on her own, she needs a wakeup call. Her behavior in front of your daughter is inappropriate.
ALL OF THE ABOVE...sry a bit long lol
My children and I have been "cleaning toys" if you will and weeding out clothes to give away on freecycle. We put 3 bags of toys and 1 bag of clothes out there and they went to a very deserving grandma and grandpa who just took in their 4 & 6 year old grandsons. I am trying to teach my boys that it is not all about the gifts you receive, they are 3 & 9 so it is a bit hard to do with all the commercials and my 3yo wanting every last thing he sees. I let them decorate the tree after I put the lights on and they have a blast. We celebrate the birth of Jesus and attend church. First on Christmas morning we discuss the meaning of Christmas and the birth of Jesus and they enjoy going through our boooks we have about that as well.
I think so.....but it was so long ago- nm

as long as they get it right
I've seen people point to the general area, or to the labia, & call that the vagina. It's almost worse than calling it a peepee or a muffmuff or a kitty.
