Study Finds Link Between Wi-Fi and Autism {Switched.com}
Nov 21st 2007 7:40PM No computers, cell phones, No Wifi, No drugs, nor alcohol, not overweight, was in my 20's, healthy, 1 normal child, no trouble with vaccines, no family history, no PG problems, easy birth, didn't work outside the home-so no polluted job sites, blah blah blah. Why does autism happen? Because. Because of a mix of these things. Because of none of these things. Because of one of these things. IT happens. Until they can tell us exactly what this or that causes autism, why put this bullsh** out, and why worry about it-you have to live life, and deal the hand that was dealt you. We don't know what causes autism, not in the slightest bit. Some are hereditary I am sure, some aren't and some are a mix of both. But until we absolutely know what that factor is, it isn't worth the upset many of the posters are causing us parents of autistic kids.
Irate Woman Snarks at Brit -- Sis Steps In! {TMZ}
Oct 8th 2007 3:02PM There is simply no fricking way anyone would want this kind of attention=and the reason they are getting this attention is because we keep letting & wanting the paps to give it to us. How sad Britney's life has become. Hey, she is responsible for all of her behavior; someday hopefully she will grow up and improve her lifestyle and choices she makes. But I cannot say I wouldn't be driven to extremes either with that kind of hounding by the press-I mean, she only was going to dinner for God's sake. Low profile? HOW? And the other woman-just a plain idiot who wanted her 30 seconds of fame.
Jeri Thompson, No Mere Trophy {Political Machine Blog}
Oct 4th 2007 2:29PM I am getting some good info here, because I have not paid any attention to the "actor" president wannabe. An "ex" senator at that. Now I know I will not pay him any mind.
And yeah, old news on the older man/younger woman and kids bit. What else is new? YUCK. But see, both know why they married each other and are comfortable with it. Still, YUCK!
Are expired drugs safe? {That's Fit}
Oct 3rd 2007 12:55PM My father is a pharmacist, my mother is a pharmacy technician, as I am, my brother is a drug rep and my sister is a pediatrician. By law, the expiration date of one year must appear on the prescription vial that your medicine comes in. However, the bottle that those meds came out of usually do not expire for several years. Ed is correct, some drugs should be thrown out after a year, but very, very few need to be. In this case you should call your phamacist (skip the doctor on this) and ask if your parrticular drug is good beyond a year. If he/she is adamant and says no to any drug, then they are attempting to get you to throw out perfectly good drugs and come in to spend more money. If they are detailed and say yes to some/no to others, then I'd listen to them.
Any liquid meds in the frig should have been used up for a particular illness and should be thrown out if not. Otherwise, I'd keep all your meds for a long time, in a cool, dry environment and when the need arises, call your pharmacist and ask. If they are having a fit because you have something that is over the year expiration date, I'd call someone else to get advice. And I wouldn't return to that pharmacy again. With today's drug prices, most pharmacies will give good advice on letting someone keep using drugs well past their expiration dates, except the ones that do need to be thrown out.
Baby Girl Is a World Map Genius {AOL Video Blog}
Sep 26th 2007 7:30PM Well, just another comment that says baloney to all of the negative comments here. The kid is cute and smart, enjoys learning, has attentive parents, won't remember any of this unless kept up by the parents, has good social and verbal skills for her age, wearing diapers at under 2 is more than normal, and is not, repeat not, autistic, Asperger's or any other such malady (yep, I got an autistic kid). It was a very cute video, I learned a few things myself, I do not think for one second they are coercing her, nor pointing to anything behind the camera or using a laser pointer (even if they were, she is still cute and smart for under 2). In the end, most of the comments were nice, and that is nice to see and hear for once. Some were very funny-especially the ones about our president. I particularly liked the Current Occupant moniker. LOL. To the negatives, why? If she has a disorder such as autism, they already know it, or will soon enough. Let the video stand as something good, clean, honest fun for once. Way to go Lily and parents! I commend you.
Facebook Costing Businesses $264 Million Daily in Lost Man Hours {Switched.com}
Sep 12th 2007 5:22PM I wholly agree that any business should be blocking these websites and any personal email sites. This would cut down on the problem immensely without the loss of respect, trust, work productivity and other issues. It would make the day so much easier for the employees, not having it available prevents the sometimes overriding desire to peak at their page. I would love it if they did this at 2 of my kids' work places, as I see that is what they do all the time and know one day it will be discovered, and it will negatively affect their job in one way or another.
Top Searched Stretch Mark Creams {AOL Hot Searches}
Aug 21st 2007 11:02AM Complete fallacy. If you are going to get stretch marks, you are going to get them. Lotions, gels, prayers, massage thereapy-NOPE-just heredity and good luck. Tried most of all that-got huge ones. I was in good shape, good weight, didn't even get that big, and they came on about the 8th month-seems like in a matter of hours. Every doctor you talk with says it is heredity-type of skin you have, moisture, none of it matters-all heredity or good old fashioned luck. Not saying dont' use them-it helps the skin stay moistureized, makes it feel good, keeps your mind normal (lol) til you get them anyways; certainly doesn't hurt. But accept it ladies: it is all heredity and luck....

Aug 5th 2007 9:05PM Great idea all the way around. So glad they have come up with something that most of them can wear. And for the others, hey, a good thing too!
Garth Brooks Reportedly Coming Out of Retirement {Popeater Dev Site}
Aug 5th 2007 8:52PM Another retirement comback, huh? How many is he going to do? This is so old and done with. I used to like him; then he retired, then came back, retired, came back, cheated on his wife (YES HE DID#7), CRIED on TV on how hard his life/career was. And he just had to be home for his daughters-homeschool them on his property-OH please!! HE CRIED....for pete sakes. I have always wondered how he got full custody.....but money buys everything, they say.
Brit Against the World {TMZ}
Jul 25th 2007 5:54PM I am so sick of this. LIndsay needs rehab for at least a manditory 6 months, then she needs her trial, and this should result in a jail sentence for a year-hopefully. I don't care where she serves it-but she is not just a young, trouble girl screwing up her life, which all the media seems to be saying=she is dangerously out of control and putting every person on the road at risk with her driving under the influence, drugs, stalking (her assistants mother), reckless driving, and God knows whatever things she is doing. Also, why are they not holding her until they find out who the hell is selling her the drugs? If that were you or me-our asses would be in Jail big time right now and staying there......I am really SICK OF IT. I really liked her roles she has played but now I won't watch her anymore.
