I am using his book as a reference also. Thank you! nm

I don't think MB was being rude, I think it was a funny reference to
the true-life-drama "Texas Cheerleader . . . Mom" movie starring Holly Hunter a while back.  No need to get upset.
Help on upgrading drug reference

Hi all,


I am seriously in need of upgrading my drug reference. I am still using Quick Look electronic 2004 and so many new drugs have been introduced in the past 4 years.  What would you recommend??  I just checked the Stedman's site and really cannot afford that kind of money right now.  Do any of you recommend a hard copy book that would keep me updated???  Thank you for any suggestions.


Your opinion about an incident between me and (sm)
We went to the mall & I was planning to use my Victoria's Secret gift card that I got from my husband for V-day - on the way there she said, "Now we need to talk about what I saw on Oprah and how confidence in yourself affects how you look, it's all in your mind." (I am somewhat overweight) I told her that I was fine with myself and not to worry about it.  Then walking inside the mall she said "I have to get this girl who works in there to help you, she's so cool."  I said I didn't want anyone to help me, I just wanted to look around.

So we get inside and she sees her girl and says, "go over and ask her to help you."  I said, "no, I don't want to."  So she walks over to the lady and says, "can you help her?" and I said, "no, no thank you I just want to shop by myself."  But she STILL doesn't let it go and continues with, "come over here and ask her." I said, "no."  She said it AGAIN!! I said, "no thanks, nevermind, I will shop later or online." and walked out.  My friend tried to call me back in the store!!  So I am standing in the hall feeling like a goofball saying, "Susan, come on I don't want to shop there right now."  So she comes out in the hall and wants to discuss it, asking me, "what did I do?"  I told her that I was an adult and if I want to ask someone to help me I will, if I do not, I will not, and she shouldn't have kept it up.  So then she started crying because she made me feel bad.  Oh, brother. 

I will admit that she had a couple of glasses of wine before we left but she does that regularly and seemed like her normal self.

I think I was partially self-conscious because of my current weight but then to add insult to injury we had to call attention to it and ask the lady to help me so she could show me where the larger stuff was?  It was all mixed in together so she would have had to walk around helping me look at each item.  Grrrrr. 

We are both around 40 years old and she usually doesn't act like this but she made me feel as if  she thought I was incompetent. She wouldn't stop being upset over the fact that she had upset me, and kept asking what she had done wrong, even after I tried to explain it to her.  So finally I just said it was my own issue with my weight and that she didn't do anything wrong....sheesh. What do you think happened there???

I called my mom right after the incident...sm
I told her. She keeps a loaded gun in her car and one in house. She comes to my house after work a lot. When she is at home, the doors are locked, and the shades are closed. Deadbolts locked. Sheriff has been informed of his issues and they said if he gives any problems at her house to call 911 and someone will come pick him up. She is prepared to shoot him if need be.

Sad but true. Welcome to my world.
Unless your son was involved in the incident, they probably would not inform you.
If the schools had to inform all parents of every single incident that occured between students, that could be a full-time job unto itself for 2 or 3 people in some schools. It sounds like the school took proper measures in disciplining the students involved in the incident.

As far as the post below regarding the 4th grade girl and her lies, I am sure that the boy in question knew what she was saying and may or may not have told his parent(s). At any rate, that would be a matter for the families of the children involved.
This reminds me of an incident a couple of
months ago. My parents live 4 hours away and won't come visit but maybe twice a year because their horses mean more than their grandkids seem to. With upcoming Thanksgiving, my husband and some of his buddies are going hunting Thanksgiving day. I told them all that the kids and I will cook while they are gone and when they get back from the woods that evening, we will have a wonderful Thanksgiving with friends and their girlfriends/wives, etc. At a family function a couple of months ago, my husband's niece comes up to me and asks me what we are doing for Thanksgiving so I told her. She said she was trying to remember to invite all the "lonely people". Now, my parents may not come down but who says we are lonely??? I too went through many years of crying because we didn't have that Martha Stewart Christmas.
IMO a current PDR (Physicians Desk Reference), which runs about $200.00 (sm)
but WELL worth the expense.
Advice needed - school incident

Okay, I will try to make this short.  We send our son to Catholic school.  We are Catholic but we also love the atmosphere, i.e. safe and a good community environment.  He is in second grade.


When I pick him up today, he tells me this classmate girl has stabbed him in the arm with her pencil!  He had to have an ice pack on it for an hour and it still hurts him.  She poked thru his shirt and now it's bruised with a red mark in the center.  She has a short fuse and apparently was mad that he was invading her "space."  They have 4 stations at one table, so it could be difficult for a child to discern where one space ends and another begins.


I am pi**ed off about this.


1.  The school didn't call me, but the they did the other mother.


2.  The girl's mother (whom I know) hasn't called me about it.


3.  I spoke with the principal briefly because his teacher had left by the time I got there, but he is going to talk to the girl and my son about it tomorrow and about personal space.  She was in his office for an hour until dismissal today.


I know if it was my kid, I would be calling that mother right up and apologizing.  I am so ticked off right now about it that I am worried if I do call, I will lose my cool.  


The other thing is this:  We have always taught our son to respect others and treat others how you would want to be treated.  He has a good moral compass.  He is also a big and tough kid.  We have always taught him to never hurt others unless it's in self defense.  I feel as if they are brushing this off because he is a boy.  I think if the shoe was on the other foot and he did it to her, it would be bad news.  All hubby and I know is that we don't want it happening again.  How do we get our point across?  SHould I call the mom and tell her that?  My son told me this is not the first time she has done this (poking with the pencil) but it is the first time it hurt like this.  She could have gotten him in the eye or hurt someone else altogether!  I don't think she belongs in that school if she continues to act that way.  The school doesn't have a special needs program. 


I am so mad right now I could spit.   


The reference to "lifestyle" isn't about couplehood and cooking dinner after work.
It's a reference to the perceived increased promiscuity rates among homosexuals as compared to heterosexuals.

Don't flame me for that - you asked, I answered.

Just because there is a perception doesn't make it true, but it also doesn't automatically make it false either.

Yes, there are straight players and swingers. But there is a widespread perception that gays are more likely to be players and swingers.
They probably figure if Marcel wins, he won't sue the show for that incident.
But I will not miss Sam, Mr. No Personality Whatsoever, at all. I seriously think he needs a little Prozac or something :)

i've been letting my hair grow out for almost a year and a half.  i've always worn my hair very very short, easy to take care of.  but with the help of my hubby giving me encouragement, i have hair that just touches my shoulders now.  i have naturally wavy/curly hair, thick.  i have layers in mine and after i get out of the shower, i put some mousse in it and let it air dry.  if i dry my hair with a dryer, i turn into a big frizz ball.  i bought a hair magazine with pictures in it and there are some really good articles in there for the different hair types.  they recommend you don't wash your hair every single day, because that can dry out your hair.  good luck!


Thanks LinK

never heard of him. 


Here's another link...sm
If you go here:

http://cbs2.com/pets/local_story_097010014.html (scroll down a little) and then click on Play, you can see a local news broadcast of the story, and it shows Gracie looking like she's doing really well, poor baby. At the end, it says something about her being up for adoption, but I've read that she has been adopted. It looks like she's doing great now.

I'm disappointed that her abuser didn't receive more punishment. I live in So. Calif, and I thought we had stronger anti-cruelty laws. (I find myself wondering why his crime was only considered a misdemeanor!) But at least it was taken seriously and he is being punished. There was a time when nothing would have happened to him.

I read on one site that there s/b a site for animal abusers like there is for pedophiles. Sounds good to me. I'd sure want to know if some sicko like this was in my neighborhood. I did find a site where you can find some info. like this in your local area:

I think I need to go lie down now.
I think when you hit the link you are
allowing somebody else access to your computer, although I am not exactly sure.  Maybe some kind of spyware?  I don't know, but years ago when I had AOL, just by going to one web site I got a Trojan Horse virus and it ruined my computer.  I had to start from scratch, re-load all the programs, and it worked, but had constant problems after that.  Do you have one of those programs that can detect Spyware on your computer?  You might want to do that, I think you can find some for free by doing a search. 
Here you go. see link

Hey LinK (sm)

I so looked forward to the premiere episode, and about 15 minutes before it came on, I was so tired I couldn't keep my eyes open, as bad as I wanted to.  So I Tivo'd it and will watch tonight.  Will check back with you tomorrow.

Same here LinK!

The snow started coming down Sunday, it's oh, Wednesday, and we still haven't plowed out our driveway.  Two neighbors have actually called to make sure we're okay--isn't that just the sweetest thing?!  They can't fathom that no one would need to leave the house.  We don't even go out much in good weather but it's really easy to tell when no one leaves the house when there's snow on the ground....especially a foot and a half of it! 


Gotta do something about it soon though.  I'm sure the mailbox is gettin' all filled up with bills and whatnot, but I'm kinda diggin' it being outta sight and outta mind.

One more link from CDC....

Here's some more from them.  I clicked on Gardasil Vaccine Reports on the CDC website. 


http://www.cdc.gov/vaccinesafety/vaers/FDA_and_CDC_Statement.htm


Information from FDA and CDC on Gardasil and its Safety


July 22, 2008


Gardasil was tested in over 11,000 women in the United States and around the world, and found to be safe and effective in preventing serious HPV-related diseases.  These studies showed that in women who have never been infected by HPV types 6, 11, 16 or 18, the vaccine is highly effective, both in preventing precancerous lesions that often develop into cancer of the cervix, vagina, and vulva, and in preventing genital warts often caused by these HPV types.


This vaccine is an important cervical cancer prevention tool that will potentially benefit the health of millions of women. Every year, about 12,000 women are diagnosed with cervical cancer and almost 4,000 die from this disease in the United States. Worldwide, cervical cancer is the second most common cancer in women, causing an estimated 470,000 new cases and 233,000 deaths per year.


Summary


Based on the review of available information by FDA and CDC, Gardasil continues to be safe and effective, and its benefits continue to outweigh its risks. 


CDC has not changed its recommendations for use of Gardasil. FDA has not made any changes to the prescribing information for how the vaccine is used or to the vaccine’s Precautions.  In addition, FDA routinely reviews manufacturing information, and has not identified any issues affecting the safety, purity and potency of Gardasil.

Would you mind posting the link? I would love to have the ultra soft brushes!
If I'm right about you, LinK -
you live here in Upstate NY too, right? I grew up traveling, never stayed in one place more than two years, and when I was 19 I discovered this area. I thought about moving once in a while since then, even moved to NC for 16 months, but had to come home. This is the most pleasant, safest part of the country! No earthquakes, hurricanes, tornadoes and, at least in Saratoga, all the really bad storms just break up and go around us - something about the way the mountains lie, I guess. I'll never leave!
