double standard
Men have been doing it for centuries....marrying and/or keeping mistresses about 15-20 years younger and nothing is said about it, other than "You lucky dog."
Why is it so frowned upon in society for women to consider the same option?
STANDARD OF CARE
No, this is wrong. Move him now to another hospital. Ask for copies of the charted records.
Standard reply, it seems, but...
I would take her to the vet. When my cat stopped using the litter box, it was because she had cystitis and associated the pain from the infection with the litter box. It might just be because your cat has been outside, but better safe than sorry.
Nah; I think that's pretty standard care around here.
Sleep apnea of the duration he has (30-seconds) is not exactly an emergency. People who die have developed heart disease from it, and that takes time.
You too could move and have higher standard of

Our standard budget gathering is
meatball sandwiches, pasta salad, green salads. If I'm in the mood, I'll make the meatballs myself, but it's easier to buy bags of them from one of the big box mart type places. The giant cans of Don Pepino's spaghetti sauce are really good and cheap, too.
I think they start to become concerned when femur length is two standard deviations below normal
which equals about 5 weeks or 6 weeks behind in length. And you said you were told something like 2 or 3 weeks behind. I wouldn't worry. You may just be having a small baby who may be a short person or maybe your dates are a little off. There are so many variables in pregnancy.
Both my kids measured below the standard for femur length on ultrasound (about 2 weeks behind), but I'm 5 feet 2 inches and my ex-husband is 5 feet 4 inches, so my kids weren't going to be big. My son always measured in the 5th percentile and was always of the smallest kid in his class. Now at age 14, he's taller than his dad and is probably going to reach about 5 feet 9 inches! My daughter is still in kindergarten and she is the smallest in her class and measures in the 5th percentile. I've had doctors say things like "we need to watch his/her growth closely" blah, blah, blah. I'm little, my ex is little, and consequently, my kids were little.
Best advice, DON'T WORRY! When you're pregnant there's a tendency to worry about every little thing! I would suggest talking to the genetics doctor and going from there. Do your own research and have questions ready when you go.
Good Luck!
you need a trick
Get some apple pie spice or cinnamon, whatever you got, sprinkle it on a cookie sheet and put it in the oven on WARM. Do this after your 500 degree sterilizing.
Your house will not smell like rat pee.
Good for you fixing your own stove!
Benadryl does the trick for me and
also if you have an itch, hey, it takes care of both. I absolutely cannot take it while working as it kicks in the sleepiness.
The one where the dog learns a new trick - how to
I think they're advertising for Stanley Steamer Carpet Cleaner -- and the dog has his butt spread on the floor and is pulling himself across it and the kid yells -- mom look the dog's learned a new trick and the mom totally freaks. Absolutely love that commercial.
My favorite commercial that isn't on anymore are the identity theft ones by citibank -- like when the 2 old ladies are on the couch and making the driving noises and the one says - that was fun and the other one says- yeah (with a southern drawl).
I think it's a kind of mean trick. (SM)
I'm surprised it's so popular. I think it is one of several things that caused me to be quite cynical about life. Some people will think that's over-reacting to a fun myth, but it's almost like proof that real life is too boring or kids are gullible so let's make stuff up and see how long they believe it. Too bad logic can easily follow that God is also made up.
Not THIS board - is that a new SS trick?
wouldn't put it past her.
trick or treat?
I'm figuring the way this day is going that I will turn off my lights, sit in the basement and eat 2 bags of Snickers instead of handing it out tonight. I hear those little candy bars up in the pantry calling my name. I figure I am saving the neighborhood kids from cavities, weight gain, stomachaches and a night of bouncing off the walls. I know they'll thank me later.
I like Eucerin, but the trick is
to put the lotion on while your skin is still wet from the shower.
What's your trick for staying awake? (sm)
I don't sleep well at night, even with taking a pill, and during the day lately I'm finding it harder and harder to say awake. I've had 2 caffeinated beverages but that's not helping. Smacking my face isn't helping. It's killing my line count. Right now I have a clothes pin on my earlobe causing just enough pain to keep me momentarily alert, but I don't expect this to last. Any suggestions?
good! that is the trick, now stick to it!
hold to your guns, girl. dont let him go along good for a while and then stop. you are taking the right way, its not easy, and it may not end up with ya'll together, but you will then be able to look everyone, including him, and say i left it all out there. be sure though that you find something for yourself that will build you up! that is key to this. will make you stronger to deal with him and also if the time comes that you have to go, you will KNOW you can do it on your own. God bless your home.
There is a trick for dogs that might work.
If a dog eats too fast you put a ball or rock in the bowl with the food and he has to eat around it.
I've never tried it, although come to think of it, it might help my CJ.
Oh, another non-poisonous trick someone told me...
This didn't work for me personally because I had a rat problem in winter and the water kept freezing but...
Locals here told me to get a 5-gallon plastic pail and fill it 1/3 of the way with water and then dump in just enough birdseed or dry dog/cat food enough to cover the surface of the water. Theoretically the varmint is supposed to go in for the food but wind up drowning because it can't get out. Makes sense enough, but like I said, I never tried it because my rat problem was in my barn, in winter, and it would've froze solid. The damage I found after poking around was INCREDIBLE and very angering. I went with bait blocks and never did find a rat--guessing they crawled off to die.
Abstinence of ALL alcohol is the trick !!!
This method will allow you to know what you are doing at ALL times and prevent taking the life of another individual. Easy on your organs, too. Good example for your children . . . and on and on and on
Is there a trick to changing the ink jet on the HP printer. Seems to be a problem for me. Just a
small personal one. nm
Of course! Stealing? That's the oldest trick in the book. lol
I guess she figured what does she have to lose if she thought she was dying. :(
Anybody have any April's fool trick today?
In past years, my boss has tricked me; my exhusband tricked me (bad) and I got even. It is noon EST and all I got was my local newspaper e mailing me their headline that BigFoot was spotted in a nearby swamp. Hope that's all the tricks I get today... anybody got a good one to share? Happy April 1st!
Anyone know of a trick to get dark nail polish off a light rug? Help!

About Your Candy
Just wondering if you have a website regarding your candy business. ?
Arm Candy
You just have to enforce with him there are consequences to every action. Have a real heart to heart with him. Use Levi and Palin's daughter as a perfect example of young love. Remind him all the weight-watching, college, etc. will be down the drain if he makes a mistake. Then remind him of AIDS and all the other STD's that last a lifetime and encourage him to use protection. When the hormones are raging and the girls are falling all over them they need to be reminded. Just do it in a way that he knows you are not saying he is stupid but that you don't want to see him a mistake that could change/mess up his life for a long time.
Candy making
I use chocolate bark to dip with. I do know you have to watch the humidity outside. If the humidity is high, the chocolate will not set, but you can put it in the refrigerator to get it to set. Have fun!!
candy making
Aww, my favorite time of year. You can freeze your candy and it will still be good until Christmas. I make chocolate and peanut butter fudge and freeze it. As a matter of fact, it is really good frozen, takes longer to eat, just melts in your mouth. I have to disguise the candy in the freezer, otherwise people will pick at it and it will be gone by Christmas. YUM!
Candy and website
I am working on getting it back up and running...tell me what your interested in and I will send you some pics.
Oh, he is mostly arm candy and he is a looker!
Actually when it comes to money I have more than him so maybe I might find someone even younger than him but I doubt that. I never doubt his love for 1 minute.
P.S. Couldn't really say John Candy or that would have
completely given it away.
Had to make ya work for it right?! :)
I got 5 pounds of chocolate candy
Hubby remembered one night...just 1 night...and can't remember when, that I was so hungry for a piece of chocolate, he gave me 5 pounds of chocolate for Christmas!!! I love chocolate but not that much!!!! I think he wants me to get fat.
I ate 2 pieces so far since Christmas. Hmmmmmmmmmm, think I'll go grab a piece now. It seems to be calling me.
I transcribed a Candy Caine once. sm
There was a doctor in the town I used to transcribe for named Dr. VonSick. Ironic?
There is an accounting firm in the next town over named Cheatham and Goleno. Cheat em? Not my accountant!
I went to school with a Candy Kiss = sm
She dropped out of school in 10th grade and married a man whose last name was Kowalski.
Do you keep a candy dish on your desk?
What's inside it?
I have one on my desk, but it usually only has sugar-free gum in it. Boring I know, but I hate it when my kids get cavities and since they raid my dish all the time, I have to take precautions.  I also don't want to tempt myself all day long with sugar. Sometimes I get sugar-free Werther's candy or sugar-free lemonade candy but those bags are so tiny they don't last long.
Halloween candy warning
HALLOWEEN CANDY RECALLED
There is a new warning put out by the Canadian Food Inspection
Agency....
Sherwood brand Pirate's Gold Milk Chocolate coins are being
recalled due to the fact that they contain Mel amine, the ingredient in milk
product that has caused many infant deaths in china. These candies are
sold at Costco, as well as many bulk and dollar stores. please make sure to
check your childrens halloween candy and DO NOT LET THEM EAT THE
PIRATE COINS (you know the ones wrapped in the shiny gold foil) and
please let other parents know about this!
Christmas candy ideas
My husband and I make about 30 tins of candy each year to give to family and friends. We make chocolate covered cherries (just dip cherries in melted chocolate), white chocolate covered pretzels with red and green chocolate drizzled on top, turtles (I buy a 5 lb chunk of caramel), buckeyes (peanut butter balls dipped in chocolate), peanut butter kiss cookies, mixed nut clusters dipped in chocolate and peanut butter fudge. All of it is pretty simple, just time consuming. My family really looks forward to receiving it each year. I use a double boiler for melting chocolate. I haven't had much luck in the microwave. If you would like specific instructions for any of the above, feel free to e-mail me. I think the kids could do a lot of the dipping to help out.
Candy making question
If I make some candy would it still be good for Christmas? I'm going to make those Peanut Butter Bon Bons today.
How do you make you choolate chips and paraffin wax to dip them in? I can't remember how many choc chips I used before, but one time the candy didn't get as hard as it should.
I always keep these in the fridge anyway.
I get frustrated by the double standard they use when judging people. They let certain people go sa
What do you think about the voting process?
Is there a local candy making store?
 They may have them, but not sure. I'm in Delaware, but we have a store that carries all kinds of little things to make your own candy. I do remember seeing cinnamon chips, and I wonder where they went? I wonder if you also tried Hershey's website for them or other websites. I wonder if you Google cinnamon chips???? just a thought....
What's your favorite Christmas treat/candy, etc?
Mine are the 'chocolate oranges' and Andes mints.
For homemade stuff, can't beat fudge, Chex mix and Christmas sugar cookies.
What're your favorites?

And bring lots of candy gelt.

Try reaching for a stick of gum or a piece of hard candy.
The doctor I work for prescribes Chantix and it has been very successful for many patients.

Planes, Trains, and Automobiles ..I Miss John Candy!
A sweet lovable buffoon with a secret about his wonderful wife, John Candy and Steve Martin try to get home for Thanksgiving.
One time our neighbor's kids fed our German shepherd candy corn while she was out on her run.
I was out in the driveway washing our car at the time, and I saw them playing with her, but then saw what they were feeding her. She then came inside and threw up yellow and orange all over our beige carpet. Thankfully we own a really good carpet steam cleaner!
SF ice pops, jelly beans, other hard candy. And baby carrots with almond
