Hi is there anyone who can give me advise on a child with hemophilia?

My son is 2 and a half and was wondering what to expectHi is there anyone who can give me advise on a child with hemophilia?
HemophiliaBumps and scrapes are a part of every child's life. For most children, a tumble off a bike or a stray kick in a soccer game means a temporary bruise or a healing scab. But for children with hemophilia, these normal traumas of childhood are reason for extra concern.





Hemophilia is a rare bleeding disorder that prevents the blood from clotting properly. Currently, about 17,000 people in the United States have hemophilia. About one in every 8,000 boys is born with hemophilia; girls are more rarely affected by this genetic condition linked to gender. A male can't pass the gene for hemophilia to his sons, though all his daughters will be carriers of the disease gene. Each male child of a female carrier has a 50% chance of having hemophilia.





What Is Hemophilia?


Human blood contains special proteins, known as clotting factors. Identified by Roman numerals, clotting factors help stop bleeding and allow a blood vessel to heal after an injury. The last step in the clotting process (also called coagulation) is the creation of a ';net'; that closes the torn blood vessel and stops the bleeding. This part of the process involves clotting factors VIII and IX. People with hemophilia are deficient in one of those factors due to their disease genes, and as a result, their blood can't clot properly.





Hemophilia A, also known as factor VIII deficiency, is the cause of about 80% of cases. Hemophilia B, which makes up the majority of the remaining 20% of cases, is a deficiency of factor IX. Patients are classified as mild, moderate, or severe, based on the amount of factor present in the blood.





Each case of hemophilia is unique. A patient whose blood tests suggest severe hemophilia may only bleed occasionally, whereas another patient with a milder form may bleed more often. The reasons for this variability may relate to other clotting factors or to differences in behaviors that present different risks of injury.





Signs and Symptoms


Signs and symptoms of hemophilia vary, depending on severity of the factor deficiency and the location of the bleeding. Few babies are diagnosed with hemophilia within the first 6 months of life because they're unlikely to sustain an injury that would lead to bleeding. For example, only about 30% of males with hemophilia bleed excessively when circumcised and only 1% to 2% of newborns with hemophilia have bleeding within the skull (called an intracranial hemorrhage).





Once babies with hemophilia begin crawling and cruising, parents may notice raised bruises on the stomach, chest, buttocks, and back. Sometimes, because bruises appear in unlikely places, parents may be suspected of child abuse before their child is diagnosed with hemophilia.





The baby may also be fussy and may not want to reach for a cup, walk, or crawl. Other symptoms include:





prolonged nosebleeds


excessive bleeding from biting down on the lips or tongue


excessive bleeding following a tooth extraction


excessive bleeding following surgery


blood in the urine (called hematuria)


The most common type of bleeding in hemophilia involves muscles and joints. A child with hemophilia will usually refuse to move the affected joint or muscle because of pain and swelling. Recurrent joint bleeding can also lead to chronic damage.





Diagnosis


Your child's doctor may suspect your child has hemophilia if there's a pattern of bruising and bleeding, particularly if this includes bleeding into the joint. Diagnosing the condition requires a set of blood tests, including a complete blood count (CBC), prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (PTT), factor VIII level, and factor IX level.


Treatment


Although hemophilia is a lifelong condition with no cure, it can be successfully managed with clotting factor replacement therapy - periodic infusions of the deficient clotting factor into the child's bloodstream. Factor replacement may be given through an intravenous (IV) line either at the hematology clinic or at home by a visiting nurse or by parents (and even older patients) who have undergone special training. Your child's hemophilia team (doctors called hematologists who specialize in treating blood disorders, nurse practitioners, nurses, and social workers) will teach you how to prepare the concentrated clotting factor and when and how to inject it into your child's vein. Once the clotting factor is ';infused,'; it begins to work quickly and helps prevent joint damage.





Although these treatments are effective, they are also expensive. According to the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, most children in the United States who begin receiving regular infusions early in life will exhaust the average lifetime insurance limit of $1,000,000 by their second decade.





Between 14% and 25% of children with severe hemophilia A develop inhibitors (antibodies to the clotting factor). Their bodies view the clotting factor as a foreign substance and develop inhibitors that block its clotting action. This can make the hemophilia difficult to treat. One method for overcoming the inhibitors is to increase the body's tolerance to the clotting factor by carefully infusing increasing amounts of the clotting factor over time. Inhibitors to factor IX (hemophilia B) are less common.





Also, a new medication called recombinant factor VII has helped many patients with inhibitors. It activates another part of the coagulation process directly and bypasses the deficiencies.





Preventing Problems


You can help your child with hemophilia prevent problems by encouraging healthy behaviors now. For example, exercise can strengthen your child's muscles and help decrease bleeding from injuries. Swimming is strongly encouraged because it exercises all the muscle groups without putting stress on the joints.





Your child's weight should also be managed properly, because excess weight can cause strain in regions of the body. If your child is overweight, speak to your child's doctor for advice on weight management.





Medications can also help prevent problems in children within hemophilia. Many patients prevent ';bleeds'; by infusing clotting factors on a regular basis (usually two or three times per week). Some young children have a surgical procedure to implant a central venous catheter (a hollow, soft tube) into a vein. The catheter can be used to give concentrates of clotting factors.





Your Child's Needs


Although each stage of development comes with its own set of issues, experts say the toddler and teenage years can be the most challenging for a child with hemophilia. Both phases naturally involve a child's quest for independence. For example, a toddler may not tell his or her parents about an injury that resulted from doing something that wasn't allowed (i.e., riding a bike without a helmet, jumping on the furniture, running in the house, etc.). Most children, though, will discover that seeking prompt treatment is better than waiting until pain and swelling become unbearable.





Ask your family members, caregivers, and your child's teachers if they would like to learn more about hemophilia by meeting with your child's doctor or other members of the hemophilia team





You should also encourage your child to still participate in activities, which may mean that he or she has to take on a different role at times. For example, if hemophilia prevents your child from participating in a contact sport, he or she can still be a part of the team as the scorekeeper or assistant manager.





Another excellent way to help children with hemophilia cope is to send them to an appropriate summer camp. Several camps provide children who have bleeding disorders with an opportunity to meet other kids with the same condition, as well as to work toward being able to give themselves clotting factor replacement therapy, which can give them a sense of control over hemophilia. Ask your child's doctor for information about finding a camp near you.


Caring for Your Child With Hemophilia


When your child is an infant, you should put bumper pads in the crib, cushion furniture with sharp edges, and put gates across stairs to prevent falls. As your baby begins to crawl and walk, special knee and elbow pads can offer protection against joint bleeds. Some parents sew a pocket in the seat of their child's pants and pad it with a piece of diaper. If your house has ceramic tile or hardwood floors, consider installing carpet or buying rugs to soften the floor surface.





Depending on how rambunctious and adventurous your toddler is, you might want to have him or her wear a helmet to protect against head injuries.





Dental care is just as important for a child with hemophilia, but routine cleanings can sometimes cause bleeding. For this reason, it's important that your child's dentist has experience with hemophilia. This will make it easier for the dentist to respond to any bleeding.





Children with hemophilia can generally sense when a bleed has occurred. They often describe a tingly or bubbly sensation in a joint. It may also feel warm to the touch. Encourage your child to tell you when he or she senses a bleed - a quick infusion is the key to preventing long-term damage.





Doctors also recommend splinting an affected joint for a short period of time and then applying ice to decrease inflammation, promote clotting, and relieve pain. Acetaminophen (such as Tylenol) is the preferred pain reliever because many other over-the-counter pain medications contain aspirin or NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen or naproxen sodium), which can affect blood platelets and lead to increased bleeding.





Bleeds must be treated promptly because prolonged bleeding can cause joint disorders. The accumulation of blood in the joint spaces can erode the smooth surfaces that allow limbs to bend easily. As the surfaces roughen, inflammation and the number of bleeds can increase. This cycle can lead to chronic joint damage that may require surgery to remove the damaged joint tissue (called a synovectomy).





When to Call Your Child's Doctor


Certain bleeds require medical attention, including those injuries affecting:





the central nervous system - any suspected trauma to the head, neck, or back


the face, including the eyes and ears


the throat or another portion of the airway


the gastrointestinal tract (which might produce signs such as bright red or black blood in your child's stool)


the kidneys and urinary tract (if you find blood in your child's urine, this may require treatment and bed rest)


the iliopsoas muscle in the trunk (which might produce signs that mimic a hip or abdominal bleed, including lower abdominal/groin or upper thigh pain, an inability to raise the leg on the affected side, and a feeling of relief when contracting or flexing that side of the body)


the genital area


the hips or shoulders (these can be complicated bleeds because they involve the rotator joints)


large muscle compartments, such as the thighs


If the bleed requires going to the emergency room, make sure your child is treated at a hospital that has experience treating hemophilia. Any injury affecting the brain or any part of the central nervous system or a vital organ should be treated as an emergency and you should get medical assistance immediately.





Looking to the Future


Tremendous advances have been made in the treatment of hemophilia, and most patients can now lead full, healthy lives with careful management of their condition.





The development of clotting factors made in the laboratory has virtually eliminated the danger of transfusion-related infection with HIV or hepatitis viruses from clotting factor replacement therapy. And regular home-based infusions have helped reduce chronic joint problems.





In the future, people with hemophilia may have access to continuous infusion of clotting factors under the skin or in pill form. Some doctors are also encouraged by research involving gene therapy.





Thanks to advances like these, children with hemophilia can now participate in a wide range of sports and have the freedom to lead more active lives.


hope this helps :)

Hi can anyone advise if you can give a dog experiencing a phantom pregnancy epsom salts to help with milk?

No, if you give it orally she will get diarrhoea. If you use it on her nipples she will lick it off and could get diarrhoea.





The hormonal changes the ***** undergoes following oestrus are similar whether she is pregnant or not. Changing levels in circulating hormones in the pregnant and pseudo pregnant animal are accentuated and the reason that this occurs in an animal that has not conceived is poorly understood.


Treatment:


Mild cases are frequently not treated by the vet and will subside of their own accord in approximately 14-21 days.





However in some cases where the ***** appears physically ill or the behavioural changes are of such magnitude as to cause concern, treatment has to be instituted. Most treatments involve the use of hormonal drugs to reduce the milk production .Hi can anyone advise if you can give a dog experiencing a phantom pregnancy epsom salts to help with milk?
Hi Kimberly,





Not a good idea. But you could help her mammary glands to produce less milk by reducing stroking, wiping and not allowing her to lick as all these things encourage the glands to produce milk.





Hope this helps.

    African grey bathing advise required please?

    My boyfriend has had an african grey for about a year and a half and he is about 2 1/2 years old now. We have noticed that whenever he gets a bath (is he bathed in the bathtub) once he is back in his cage he always wants to put his feet in his water and seems slightly agitated. Is this something we should be worried about? I have tried searching through websites but can't seem to find anything about another african grey doing this.African grey bathing advise required please?
    Nothing to worry about.





    Get a shallow pan (a corningware glass rectangular cake pan is what my eclectus likes to use) and fill it with one to two inches of water. Allow your parrot to bathe himself. That's really what he wants to do.African grey bathing advise required please?
    That is soooo funny. Mine and someone else who commented does the same thing. Once they are wet, they want to keep playing, so as soon as they get back to the cage they finish bathing in their drinking water. Mine dips its tail feathers, head and feet in and makes a general mess of the entire room. I've tried to give her a bathing bowl on the cage bottom but it's not the same, she wants to bathe in her water bowl.
    maybe he just wasn't finished playing in the water.Let him play for a bit after his bath.My Macaw does that when she wants back in the water.We give her showers on my hubbys arm under the shower.She has been know to stay and play for 30 minutes before.Loves her showers.
    your bird hasn't finished his bath. my macaw takes showers with me and if he does not get enough water he will go straight to his water dish,try to get in it,spill it, then throw it. give your bird a perch or a way out of the tub and he will let you know when he is done.

    Usually Greys are not avid bathers... :) It's just their personality. Perhaps he's cold when removed from the humid environment of the bathroom? Take a few minutes in the bathroom (perhaps bring a T-stand with you) and let him shake off and relax a bit before returning to the cooler environment of the rest of the house.
    parrots love bathing! i dont think he was finished!! mine always go in their water bowl for a bath!!
    Our African grey used to try and bathe in his water dish is this what yours could be doing? We used to spray ours with water as he was nervous about climbing into a bowl etc for a bath. Perhaps yours wants to bathe longer? Also check the water isnt too hot or cold for him.
    Mine does this too, so do my Macaws. We spray them with a water bottle because non of them like the tub or shower. We give them a good spraying with warm water. They always finish off in their water dishes. Go figure. It's not something to worry about.

    Please can you advise me on the availabiltity of diesel in france and spain?

    If you were thinking about the transport strikes in Spain - they are over now.





    In fact the only reason petrol ran out in some areas was due to panic buying, otherwise it would have lasted through the strike, thanks to police escorting tankers to their destinations.





    Now no queues at the petrol stations.Please can you advise me on the availabiltity of diesel in france and spain?
    No problems with getting petrol or diesel now, everyone including the lorry drivers are back at work. Price of diesel is around 1.28鈧?so cheaper than UK.Please can you advise me on the availabiltity of diesel in france and spain?
    ????????? You find more Diesel fuel in France and Spain than in England as Diesel fuel powered vehicles are more common.
    It can be found at every 'petrol station' and is often the same price in Euro's as it is in pounds here.





    the problem is finding Liquified Gas or LPG!
    You can find it at every petrol station...diesel cars are very common in Spain.
    Diesel is widely available in France and Spain, (cheaper too)
    Here in Spain there are no problems as of today....


    Price for diesel today is - 1 euro 28 cents a litre

    How do i advise a friend?

    she had a boyfriend who insisted of having sex without using a condom ,so to avoid getting pregnant she started using the pills .When she stoppped using the pills she has been having heavy virginal excreations and they were diffrent in colour .She recently went to hospital and was told to see a gynacologist something she really is opposed to .She claims it is just a side effect from using the pills but im fearing she could be infected any gynacologist reading this please tell me could this be a serois case which my dear buddy is just joking around with .what would you reccomend me to do coz i've tried to convinse her go to see a gynacologist but she just snobbs me and thinks im trying to create a mountain from an anthill!How do i advise a friend?
    I am not sure. Just tell her wait and if it is really bad tell her or force her to go see a womens health place in the hospital or the gynacologist.How do i advise a friend?
    I'm a GYN. Your friend needs to see a gyn. This could be a number of different things, up to and including withdraw from the pill. I do think she needs a full exam including a PAP just to be sure. I'm sorry I can't help more but she really does need an exam. Maybe you can convince her to see your GYN or you could go with her for support. Maybe she is just afraid of a vaginal exam because she's never had one before? Just reassure her (without sounding like you're attacking or insisting) and offer to go to the doctors with her.





    If your friend doesn't have insurance, there are places such as the Health Department or Planned Parenthood. There is always a way to get a free GYNO exam.





    People need good friends like yourself.

    How to find my laptop is compatible for wireless connections? the laptop is an acer aspire 1350 please advise?

    I've tried so many ways to find and connect my laptop via wireless connection to the internet. I coudn't find any possible results to connect via wireless. If anyone gives me a best solution I'll be happy. (Note that: I've DSL connection)How to find my laptop is compatible for wireless connections? the laptop is an acer aspire 1350 please advise?
    According to the Owner's Manual, the Aspire 1350 has wireless capability, see this link:


    http://www.acerpanam.com/synapse/data/71鈥?/a>





    You can check for sure by left clicking on the 'My Computer' icon on the desktop and then selecting 'Properties' from the menu that comes up. Then left click on the 'Hardware' Tab and then left click on the 'Device Manager' button. Go down the list of installed drivers till you get to the Network group and left click on the + sign on the Network group - you should see a driver listing for the wired Network Interface connection and also a listing for a wireless connection if you have one. If you see something here that says something about wireless then you have wireless connectivity available in your notebook. However:::::::::::::::::::::::::





    In order to use it you must have a Wireless Access Point. I'm assuming your DSL modem has a cat-5 wired connection that connects to your network plug-in point on your laptop. To use wireless you have to have either a router supplied wireless access point (ie: you go buy a compatible wireless router and set up your own wireless access point and then you will be able to access the internet anywhere at your home that is within range of your router's wireless output.) or you hook up to the internet through a hot-spot type access point (like a wireless access point supplied by a local coffee shop or bookstore or such-like place.)How to find my laptop is compatible for wireless connections? the laptop is an acer aspire 1350 please advise?
    this is a new PC so i would say yes... they even have one out now that is US based.. it works great i have used and advised many of my clients to use this usb driven device.. for it is handy and portable... linksys USB Network wireless card... look into it.. if any questions more about this piace... feel free to contact.. i will give a little more info on this piece.

    Most viewers are happiest with a cable or satellite box with a built in hard drive for recording. It's very simple to set up and operate, and you don't need external equipment, cables, etc.





    Check your cable or satellite provider for the DVRs that they offer. In my case (Comcast), paying the monthly fee for the HD DVR got me their HD channel package with the deal.
    i have a Panasonic DVD hard drive with free view %26amp; you can record to discs to keep %26amp; play DVDs as well, well worth that little extra you have to pay out

    How can I get to this MUN class at my high school even though my counselor said it's full? Got any advise?

    I am a freshman going to high school and can't get a class that I want which is World Geography Honors with MUN (Moderate United Nation) and I'm only in World Geography Honors. I went to my counselor and she said it was full and also said that not everybody can get everything that they want which made me angry so I'm asking if any of you can help me. This World Geography Honors with MUN is a history class and a debate class where you debate about politics like global warming and picking a side on it. Also, if I take this class this can help me get into a good medical school in United States of America. Got any suggestion to help me get into this class?How can I get to this MUN class at my high school even though my counselor said it's full? Got any advise?
    Contact some people in the class and ask if they'd be willing to drop. You seem to have your heart set on the class, while there are probably people that took it just to take it. Also, ask your counselor to contact you if any spots in the class open up.How can I get to this MUN class at my high school even though my counselor said it's full? Got any advise?
    you should ask the teacher if they can fit you in and if they feel like they can ask them to write your counselor a letter.

    Advise on living and workin in Saudi?

    I have the chance of working for Saudi Aramco but my partner is not keen on the idea. Is there any women living there that can reassure her and tell her some positive points?





    Advise on living and workin in Saudi?
    .......of course, there are many wives and children of Aramco expatriates employees living in Aramco compounds (main camps for Grade 11+) with 24/7 100% guaranteed security and safety. The most safest places in the kingdom I would say.....There are many amenities to enjoy like sports complex, restaurants, supermarket, etc. Advise on living and workin in Saudi?
    Definately Darren.Working with Saudi Aramco is an opportunity to work with the world's oil supplier.





    In terms of quality of life, it couldnt get any better. In fact, many people look for saudi transfers at the company they work for (mostly energy, aviation, engineering, and financial ) and either have the choice of living outside the compound (which I dont reccomend if you dont know arabic, although almsot everyone now speaks satisfactory english, and every road sign is in both languages, its just easier for foreigners to stay in an all-in-one compound) or in a compound (Saudi Aramco has one of the largest compounds in saudi arabia. Free Villa housing, paid utilities, and security is provided by the National Guard{its a part-government asset].





    So it is very safe, and for your partner, there are countless foreign families in the compound and outside. Shuttle Buses are available in all compounds to take you to one of Jeddah's or Riyadh's (if you are there) mammoth size, double jumbo malls. American malls are probably 1/100th the size and quality. Btw and FYI, there are on average 3 to 4 multi-billion dollar shopping malls opening every year or so.





    I currently reside in Canada for studies, but a Saudi Citizen. Im moving back the second I am done. The quality of life is uncomparable. Much better over in Saudi.
    Aramco is very nice inside their compounds. It's just like living in a small community in the US. It's very open, and not like outside. She can even drive inside the compound. I'm sure there are many social groups for her to meet other women. Inside the compound, you will find a small grocery store, barber shop, beauty shop, tailor, laundry service, bank, post office, coffee shop, community building, bowling alley, restaurant, gyms for men and women, library, movie theater, swimming pool, tennis court, golf course, baseball fields, soccer fields, several playgrounds and parks, and a clinic or hospital. Aramco also has a private beach that's only for employees. It's very clean and you can swim there. Aramco really does a good job to make sure their employees are comfortable and very well taken care of. It's very safe inside the compound....you see kids out playing alone, riding their bikes in the streets, etc. you see people out walking all the time. It's sorta like a dream community...the kind of place you feel safe to let your kids out alone....
    I lived with my husband and sons in Yanbu, Saudi Arabia fo r5 years. Had a wonderful experience. That said, you absolutely cannot go into it expecting it to be like home. It is not. Women cannot drive, go into barbershops, be in a car or house with a man not her husband, father or male relation.


    We did not live on a compound, and i refused to be holed up in my house. I taught in the International school, met women and families from all over the world and even ate dinner in the homes of Saudis.


    But I did not spend my whole time ';Saudi bashing'; and complaining.


    We were there to make money and we did. We did our best to be respectful and we never had any problems.





    I hear living on an Aramco compound is like living in the US. So if that's what your partner is looking for its ideal. I am pretty sure you will have to be married for her to join you though.


    had a Scottish friend that had to marry her long-time boyfriend so she could join him there.
    Now that we've seen your other questions.. it makes this one redundant..


    You cannot bring your girlfriend here.. sorry.... you have to be married and supply proof of it before she will get a visa to visit..

    lower your jaw, try to blow more warm (slow) air. think 'aooowww' a low deep drone. relax those lips!
    Haha, the BEST way to get low notes on any woodwind instrument is not to lower your jaw as much, and open your throat and breath hot air.
    Ok I play the clarinet, but had the same problem when I switched from B-flat to bass. Just support your air from your lower abs and keep practicing until you get it. Also try working your way down the scale without stopping your air stream. Hope it helps! Good luck!

  • I work in a group home and i need some advise?

    I work with DD adults and one of my clients has a habbit of smearing feces. the problem is that his room smells of it all the time. we have tried everything from hasrh chemicals to cleam it and getting antibacterial paint for his room to get rid of the smell. does anyone know of a method to remove the smell or products that will bolck the smell from seeping into the walls and floor? we have linoliumed his floor and painted and repainted his room. please helpI work in a group home and i need some advise?
    Vinegar will help but fresh air is a must.I work in a group home and i need some advise?
    Well, I work in a dementia ward at the hospital and we have this problem once in a while. However, since it is only an occasional problem, we just use cleaning supplies and an odor neutralizer to combat the smell. I have heard stories from a lady who has been working there since the 70's and they had a patient who constantly did this. They ended up redoing the whole room after he was moved to a psychiatric ward because the smell was so bad.





    I know I didn't help you, but maybe you should talk to your local hospital about the problem and they may have some suggestions.

    I'm just about to start trying to paint with oils. Can you advise please?

    I'm told that my canvas or whatever surface I paint on needs coating in gesso first. What is gesso? Is it something I must make or buy? Also one T.V. painter talks about gesso and liquid white. I'm not certain if he puts on gesso first then liquid white on top or whether it is one or the other. I've been given a recipe for liquid white but I'm confused about the gesso. Is its purpose as a sealant to protect the original surface?I'm just about to start trying to paint with oils. Can you advise please?
    gesso is sealer/ primer meant for raw/ untreated canvas, if you have canvas that appears painted white, then it has gesso already, you can add another layer if you want, gesso is chalked animal/ glue based, but newer gesso is acrylic based,





    gesso,


    http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gesso





    liquid white is more a thinned white acrylic that painters like Bob Ross use to wet surface of canvas, to allow blending of painted colours while painting,

    ..I'm just about to start trying to paint with oils. Can you advise please?
    Whether or not you want to use gesso is completely up to you.


    With any form of art you have to go to your studio and create, destroy and create again. It's always about trying things out, using different primers, using a different mixing agent, and different surface.


    Sometimes an unprimed canvas can give a really nice quality to the work.
    Gesso is a white liquid that you should paint onto your painting surface before you paint, it stops the paint from soaking into the medium and losing its colour. I suggest if you paint with oils to buy the good stuff %26amp; be heaps precise.


    Goodluck :]
    Most canvas you buy is already pre-treated with gesso and 'liquid white' is a superfluous product that guy on tv is trying to sell you. Buy stretched canvas (not raw) and get to work.

    What would you advise in your experience ? ?

    Im 23, with my boyfriend 5 years,we have a comfortable life but smoke weed a lot. I want to travel the world,he wants to work in America,we argue so much %26amp; our sex life has deteriorated. Should I pack up %26amp; follow my own dreams ? I have cheated on him.What would you advise in your experience ? ?
    if you are not getting along well than move on...What would you advise in your experience ? ?
    Follow your own dreams. You're obviously not serious about this guy. Don't let him hold you back.
    Cheated on him. Wow. I'm sorry but that caught my eye, and that's terrible. If you think things between you and him aren't working out, just leave and go your own way. It hurts more when you're both pretending to still have the spark in your relationship.
    You should leave and tell him you weren't honest with him. I despise people that smoke weed and I despise unfaithfulness, congrats on being a truly bad person.
    If you cheated your not happy and either not working on things or that don't get better when you try, move on.
    do whatever you want youve basically ruined your life already
    move to amsterdam. weed is legal, u guys can screw high or not, and he can still have a job. and if u cheat on him and get caught, just say u were high. everyone wins
    Whatever you do, keep smoking alot of weed, to me that statement was key in this deep question.....Wow!
    Traveling the world with a bag of reefer in your suitcase is probably not a good idea. You will have to cut back on the smoking just a little bit. You can replinish your supply when you get to Jamaica or Columbia. If you stop smoking the stuff, you might be able to afford the travel.
    Weed makes you complacent. What did you expect. . .a comfortable life with no edge. . .smoke a little more. . .
    Good news and bad news; you cheated on him bad news; but, the good news is that you find a solution through your cheating; While you were cheating on him or even shortly after that you felt that the cheating wasn't worth it and you feel utterly guilty about it then it gives you the signal that you should try things out with him for one last time as you are still in love with him.





    But if a major part of you feels that he deserved to be cheated or you dont have much burden on your heart about this act of yours; then it gives you the signal that you should move on and pursue your dreams as soon as possible.





    Remember, there are some unwritten rules; A THIEF IS A THIEF UNTIL HE GETS CAUGHT.





    as long as your cheating is giving you the right answers; you dont have to disclose about your cheating to anyone; not even him. just get the lesson out of it and move on with your life. BEST OF LUCK.
    yes, follow your own dreams.

    How do I become an advise columnist?

    I would really like to know what the best way is to becoming an advise columnist so I know what courses to look for when I leave school next year. Give me a hand?How do I become an advise columnist?
    Focus on journalism and psychology. Becoming an advice columnist isn't like becoming a doctor or lawyer - there isn't a set curriculum. It also isn't something that you see ads for on Craig's list. You'll need to establish yourself with a newspaper or in a specific field before you can gain enough credibility to advise people.

    You can have a word with the State Social Welfare Dept on the formalities for registration and availing state funds for promoting women and child development, assistance to handicapped etc..





    You can also have advise from leading NG Os in your area. You may form a group of multi disciplinary graduates, like Sociology or Social Work graduate / rural economist (if you are agrl economist then that would also suffice) / and specialities relating to your chosen area of function (if rural, an agrl engineer / etc.) and frame your proposed activites, like promoting environmental instersts or giving awareness and training in organic farming etc..





    With all these documents and the registration certificate you can also approach govt depts of the state / centre (for outlays under NWDPRA etc) or even a bank to avail financial assistance to start your programmes.. You have to first make your group presence felt by conduct of good awareness progs locally have them flashed in local dailes, documented by you and so on so as to involve yourself in the govt development activites where NGOs are also involved.. As there is provision for your adminstrative and service expenses, it would be viable that way..





    Any way you can contact a good local NGO, SWD officers etc and get more details about your registration and other formalities and activites you can take up with advantage.


    I am postgraduate in agriculture,i like to start a NGO. plase advise me how to start a NGO.?
    Make sure you have the business skills, or the business backup.





    Unfortunately these days being an NGO needs those skills, as well as the commitment and compassion and knowledge of the area you want to operate in.





    Good luck!

    why would your doctor tell you to take a break? You don't have to take a break from birth control. why would you want to start to ovulate again? - to get pregnant. the only reason to stop taking birth control is when you want to get pregnant. Start back and don't stop until you want to get pregnant. Just make sure you have at least 4 periods a year while your on the pill.

    Hai friends i need some advise, if someone is keep on troubling you, should you keep on forgiving that person?

    What would you do if you are being troubled by a person. Hai this a general question, please give the coolest answer.Hai friends i need some advise, if someone is keep on troubling you, should you keep on forgiving that person?
    We should always be willing to forgive others; and we should also learn to avoid those people who are constantly making us forgive them!Hai friends i need some advise, if someone is keep on troubling you, should you keep on forgiving that person?
    If somebody is troubling you the best way to get to the bottom of it is to try and talk it out with them. Let them know how you feel. What they are doing that is so troubling. If this does not work, then cut them out of your life. Not just for alittle while. Because if they couldn't understand the first time around then they won't the second. Once, shame on me. Twice, shame on you. So it has to be for good, forever, and never again. If that still does not work then you kick their ***. If you can not do that then find somebody to deliver the message for you. I hope I answered your question and good luck!!!!
    Well. It's always a good move to forgive someone. Holding a grudge isn't good for you. It shows good character when you forgive.
    Well, it is good no one is troubling you.





    It has been seen that when you stop forgiving that person that one may stop troubling you. To stop forgiving means to stop becoming disturbed by whatever he or she does to you. So then there won't be any question of forgiving. Eventually that one may lose interest in using time and energy in trying to trouble you when they don't get the satisfaction they are looking for if you don't become troubled.


    It actually depends on each situation and in this the main thing is to recognize the type of energy sent towards you and to neutralize it or to turn it into someting more elevated. Many people do this even though they may not even be aware of it. It is quite fun.
    I would forgive but only after I take some form of action ..it wouldn't be to hurt the person.only to warn that troubling ';aint'; gonna help anyone cuz People's faith will guide them away from those who trouble them..
    do not ignore him.Keep on answering him with a smile..I know that it may sound odd but i think its the right way because doing so will in return irritate him and his intention of troubling you will not work and he will stop doing that very soon..try it..It will definitely work
    no. forgiving is cowards job. Hiss like a snake but doent bite.
    I ignored that person.After all we don't have so much time to take care about who troubled us or not.
    forgiven once, but dont repeat mistakes, , dont forget
    Just ignore. Ignoring is the right way to escape from such ppl. Don't take him/her as a serious matter and make sure that he/she understands that u're not so much troubled as they would expect u to..
    I forgave someone for their past mistakes and they had not changed at all, and they hurt me again, so I said goodbye. If you keep forgiving someone for actions that upset you, you are pretty much giving them the green light to do it again.
    with a smile just ignore him its the best way to keep yourself out of it.
    Depends on how they kept troubling me?? !!

    What kind of career can my dyslexic sister try and get? Please advise !!?

    My sister is a senior in highschool this year. She obviously wants to do something with her life, but is dyslexic %26amp; somewhat illiterate. She has trouble even filling out job applications, and she isnt very savvy with communitcating word-wise (she knows what she wants to say, but it takes her a long time to say it)





    What kind of jobs/careers/trades can i interest her in?


    She needs something that not require:


    -writing or reading alot (no office type work)


    -speaking publicly or alot





    Is there some kind of web site that i can go to where you take a survery and it would tell you what kind of career might be interesting depending on your anwsers?








    THANKSWhat kind of career can my dyslexic sister try and get? Please advise !!?
    Somewhat illiterate only because she cannot see the words correctly, this does not mean she is not intelligent. A friend of my son has the same problem, but she is good with computers, not necessarily fast, but good and is making good money at an ISP provider. Have her get into ITT there will always be jobs and can work from the background. This is overcome able I have seen it, it does take patience and confidence the latter is what probably is most needed now. Tell her to hang in there, she CAN do it. In fact she can succeed in whatever she really want to, with support. Dyslexic is NOT a sign of reduced intelligence it just makes it harder to learn. God bless her and good luck, it will work outWhat kind of career can my dyslexic sister try and get? Please advise !!?
    She can do anything with proper training and support! i.e.: architecture


    interior or exterior design


    culinary arts


    woodworking


    carpentry


    performing arts


    athletics


    music


    mechanics


    graphic arts


    photography


    She just needs to figure out what shes interested in and pursue it!
    well, first off try looking up on line what others do in your sister's situation.... Also ask the schools guidance counselor to see what jobs that employers are looking for...

    I accidentally found my husband lookind at porn, I feel terrible. Any advise? Why is he doing it?

    I'm 20, he's 35, what's wrong? I'm young and willing to make love with him as much as he wants. I don't know what's wrong.I accidentally found my husband lookind at porn, I feel terrible. Any advise? Why is he doing it?
    Most men who watch porn are insecure and don't want to face reality. They are living in a fantasy world where there are gorgeous and sexy young women. He needs to stop watching this trash and spend that time with you. I once watched this smut until my wife told her how it made her feel. It all went into a big trash bag and we have been much happier ever since. Get rid of the problem: porn is trash!I accidentally found my husband lookind at porn, I feel terrible. Any advise? Why is he doing it?
    This is a subject that can only be decided by you and your husband it is based on how you feel about it. No one can tell you if it is right or wrong unless the porn is children. You need to ask him if he looks at it because something is missing in your relationship? It is very possible that it is nothing except he likes porn. If you like it maybe you could watch it together. If it bothers you tell him. But keep in mind that with your age difference he may feel that he needs to get a head start to keep up with or satisfy you. You wont know unless you talk to him. Don't put to much into it guys like porn...
    There's nothing wrong. It's quite normal, and it's a different thing from his desire for you.





    You have to overcome your embarrassment and talk about it. Not to judge it but just to make sure you/he don't keep secret parts of yourself locked away from other.





    My boyfriend looks at it. I know about it, and I know it doesn't change anything about him. He knows I look at it some times. We were embarrased to talk about it at first but that soon faded, and to be honest it was all a great relief.





    We have a pact that we keep nothing hidden from each other. Even - especially - our secret turn ons. The more sheepish we are about airing this stuff with each other, the more important it is that we talk. We don't judge. We don't mock or laugh. It seems to work for us and we're still very close and very sexually relaxed with each other after many years - we really understand and accept each other.
    Lots of men and women enjoy porn - even if they have access to sex whenever they wish and/or great sex lives. This should not be an issue, don't turn it into one. You could try looking at films or pictures with him, you may find it exciting. If not then accept that for the majority of people this is just a harmless hobby, and try not to make him feel bad about being 'caught'.
    don't know what type you caught him looking at magazine? web? web should be careful a lot of set ups and stings out there but mags and videos watch with him and enjoy you might learn something new. Yes I am a female and if I caught mine looking oh wait have in several relationships in the past so learned to watch with them no big deal it is in the privacy of own home and no children around or involved then should be safe
    well, my husband doesn't look at porn - he is working and when he comes home he is busy rolling in bed with me. but cos i do not work i have too much time on my hands so i look at porn. i really, truly and sincerely do not understand what is wrong with that. so a person watches other people fornicating or doing other stuff to each other. so what? he is not killing anybody, is he?
    hahaha... another who takes porn personally... most people enjoy porn for many reasons... and you make it ALL ABOUT YOU!!!





    it isn't about the sex between you too... it is about some selfish time...





    sex takes time, and preparation and you worry about pleasuring the other person...





    porn is all about you and nothing else... porn doesn't care about personal hygiene or how fast you finish...





    it is all about the escapism and the action... nothing more...





    try getting into it too...
    personally, i don't see anything wrong. at least hes not going around the corner to satisfy himself. let him get it on with himself it's really a weird desire that i don't get. my husband is the same way at least he's faithful. don't sweat the small stuff you'll learn as you get older.
    Hey... Imagine a situation that you are not hungry and also you have lot of food (that you like the most) in your hand. You are passing through a sweet shop. Wont you give a look into the shop? This is exactly the same. Temptation or say, curiosity - just to know what is in?
    he is just bored of you, if you don't fix the issues he will change you for porn. try to dress sexy.
    there is nothing wrong when he watches porn. May be he wants to try the same poses he found in the porn film or may be he needs to watch a porn film to get horny !!!!!
    How did he react when you saw him looking at porn? Why should you feel bad? He is your husband and you guys should please each other.How does it work him being 15 yrs older than you?
    Most people watch porn even if they are married. This isnt a problem
    it is normal to watch porn, it is nothing related to you if he watches porn
    Trust me...it is ok! If you make it a big deal then it will become a big deal...take a peak you may like it.
    instead of bit***** about it try looking at some you're self. you might like it.

    When i do stool I have erection thru penis(some white fuild) advise me some homeopathic treatment or medicine?

    it is finf that when i do talk with my second girl friend, i feel some wetness in my inner wear, while no sexual conversation done in our talking. its just normal conversation between us. please advise me on this problem and suggest some homeopathic doctor or treatment.When i do stool I have erection thru penis(some white fuild) advise me some homeopathic treatment or medicine?
    Spermatorrhoea means involuntary loss of semen in males, which generally takes place during sleep or under various conditions (during urination or at stool) at other times. It is often associated with irritability and debility of the generative organs.





    Homeopathic Medicines %26amp; Treatment for SPERMATORRHOEA or involuntary loss of semen :-





    #Phosphoric acid. [Ph-ac]


    This remedy corresponds to the chronic effects of loss of seminal fluid, while Cinchona is more suitable for the acute effects, such as emissions on three or four consecutive nights, weakening the patient greatly. Under Phosphoric acid the whole system is weakened; the legs are weak, and there is burning in the spine worse at night, the genitals are relaxed, the scrotum and testicles are flabby, the penis has no power of erection, or the erection are imperfect and the semen escapes too soon during coitus. Formication or a sensation of crawling on the scrotum is also sometimes present. Impotence when the sensibility of the part is excessive, and the semen is discharged shortly after or even before erection. There is a sudden relaxation of the penis during coitus due to exhaustion rather than to spasmodic action, as under Nux vomica. Hughes regards Phosphoric acid as probably the most useful remedy for spermatorrhoea in the materia medica, but much depends on the potency used, as the lower ones often fail. There is dragging in the testicles, and above all the mental condition is important; the patient is distressed on account of the culpability of his acts, and is anxious about the future of his health or else perfect indifference is present. It is never to be used when general irritability is present,and probably many failures are owing to its misuse in this particular. Phosphorus has impotence preceded by over-excitation of the genital organs. It also has discharge of prostatic juice during a hard stool and frequently involuntary seminal emissions. Picric acid has disturbed sleep from erections and too frequent seminal emissions. Spermatorrhoea, with great desire, followed by great prostration. King, in his work on spermatorrhoea, advises the higher potencies as the lower ones are apt to aggravate.





    #Gelsemium. [Gels]


    Characteristic of Gelsemium are frequent involuntary emissions at night, with relaxation of the organs; the whole system is relaxed and emissions occur from the slightest exertion or excitation. There are no lascivious dreams, and it is particularly the remedy in cases arising from masturbation. Dioscorea has atonic seminal emissions; there is a passive state, and the patient will have two or three dreams a night, with emission of semen and the day following will feel very weak about the knees. Farrington advises it first in the 12th and then in the 30th potency. Eryngium aquaticum. General debility, seminal emissions without erections. Digitalis has also involuntary emissions during sleep, without dreams, followed with great weakness. Baehr recommends Digitalis 3rd trituration in spermatorrhoea and claims that it usually suffices. It should be given early in the morning. Dickinson claims better results from this remedy than from any other.





    #Calcarea carbonica. [Calc]


    When night sweats follow every emission, and when coitus is followed by weakness in mind and body, calcarea is the remedy. It is especially useful in shattered constitutions where the patient sweats from any exertion. The sexual desire is excessive and the nocturnal emissions occurs about three in the morning or later. The erection are weak and excitable, there is sensitiveness of the urethra and irritable impotence. There is tendency to cold clammy sweat on the hands after emissions, there is pain in the back and head and trembling of the legs. Great weakness follows all indulgence. Calcarea suits these conditions in young people who grow too rapidly. Caladium. Here, after masturbation, the penis is a flabby as a rag, the prepuce when withdrawn behind the glands does not have sufficient contractility to replace itself. Nocturnal emissions occur with or without dreams. It is indicated in the advanced stages when there are no erections . Emissions occurring without any sexual excitement whatever is a good indication for Caladium. Feeling of coldness and cold perspiration about the genitals is also a useful symptom for the remedy.





    #Staphisagria. [Staph]


    Staphisagria is the remedy for the bad effects of masturbation where there is great emaciation with dark rings under the eyes, sallow face, peevishness and shyness. The patient is hypochondriacal and permits the mind to dwell too long on sexual subjects ; the boy becomes uneasy about the state of his health. There may also be irritability of the prostatic portion of the urethra. In the female, Staphisagria is the remedy when the organs are in a state of irritability. It is the remedy for the advanced stages and in cases of long standing. It is the best remedy in anxious and imaginary persons who are uneasy about the state of the health.





    #Agnus castus. [Agn]


    This remedy is suitable to old men who have spent most of their lives in excessive venery. These so called ';old sinners'; are just as excitable in their sexual passions at 60 as at 18, and yet they are physically impotent. It is also useful in paralytic impotence, where there is loss of both sexual desire and erection, and there is coldness of the sexual organs. This condition oftentimes comes from gonorrhoea and gleet. Nuphar lutea has absence of sexual desire; voluptuous thoughts do not cause erections. There are losses of semen during sleep. Atonic spermatorrhoea occurring from weakness of the sexual organs. Agnus castus is also a remedy in sexual melancholia and simple impotence.





    #Nux vomica. [Nux-v]


    For the bad effects of early masturbation, Nux is an important remedy. It should be given when the patient suffers from headache, frequent involuntary emissions at night, especially toward morning, and the digestive organs are weak. There is an irritable condition from sexual excesses, erections taking place, but they are not under the control of the mind and may subside at any time during an embrace; this is a common complaint of city men who have been high livers and drinkers all their lives. Strychnia is perhaps better than Nux where there is a great spinal exhaustion; spermatorrhoea arising from plethora; irresistible desire to masturbate. The higher attenuations act better than the lower.





    #Sulphur. [Sulph]


    In sexual conditions Sulphur is useful when the patient is weak and debilitated, suffers from gastric ailments, and has frequent involuntary emissions at night , exhausting him greatly. The seminal flow is thin and watery and has lost its characteristic properties. The genital organs are relaxed, the scrotum and penis are flabby, the penis is cold and the erections are few and far between. In coitus the semen escapes too soon, almost at first contact; the patient suffers from backache and weakness of the limbs, and he is low spirited and hypochondrical. Complete prostration and loss of sexual desire is a marked symptom of Sulphur.





    #Conium. [Con]


    The remedy, on account of its mental conditions, is of great utility in the treatment of sexual excesses. It produces a perfect picture of hypochondriasis; the patient is melancholic, naturally excitable, but has gone over to this weakness. There is no local irritability as under Zincum. Sepia has seminal weakness, with erethisms and easy emissions. Conium is especially the remedy where nocturnal emissions are brought on by suppression of the natural desire and there are pains in the testicles. Emissions on the slightest provocation.





    #Zincum. [Zinc]


    This remedy corresponds to long-lasting abuse of the genital organs, with great hypochondriasis. The patient has a pale sunken face with blue rings about the eyes, and there is with this drug great local local irritation, the testicles being drawn up against the external ring. Aurum may be useful when despondency predominates.





    #Lycopodium. [Lyc]


    Lycopodium is the remedy for cases which have gone on to complete impotency; the erections are absent or imperfect and the genital organs are cold and shrivelled. Exhausting pollutions without erections. Lilienthal termed Lycopodium ';the old man's balm.'; It corresponds especially to the impotency of old age where there is great despondency. Kobalt has backache following seminal emissions. Sarsaparilla has nocturnal erections with lascivious dreams, followed by pain in the back down to the spermatic cords; prostration, the least excitement causing ejaculation without sexual feeling.





    #Selenium. [Sele]


    Seminal emissions, voluntary or involuntary, make the patient worse.The patient is so relaxed that the semen dribbles involuntarily. Lack of confidence is also a factor. The mental condition of inability is more of a leading symptom, according to Halbert, than that of timidity; in fact, this writer rightly lays great stress on the mental symptoms of the drug. Graphites has want of sensation during coitus, with no discharge of semen. Selenium has the symptom that the prostatic fluid oozes while sitting, during sleep, when walking and during stool. It is useful in advanced cases where the organs are in a state of irritability.

    Take Care and God Bless You !When i do stool I have erection thru penis(some white fuild) advise me some homeopathic treatment or medicine?
    When having a bowel movement, it is not unusual to have pressure against the prostate. This can lead to an erection and some discharge of seminal fluid. This is completely normal. There is no treatment necessary. Your ';wetness'; is also normal. It is not unusual to have some ';precum'; even though there is no sexual conversation......your body is just responding to your emotions and preparing for possible events. Again, perfectly normal.

  • I'm fed up with Bucks Fizz on Christmas day. Can you advise me of any other suitable festive cocktails?

    If you want to stay with champagne try a Kir Royale-a glass of champagne with a dash of blackcurrant liqueur.I'm fed up with Bucks Fizz on Christmas day. Can you advise me of any other suitable festive cocktails?
    30ml De Kuyper cherry brandy


    30ml gin


    Lemonade or tonic water


    Serve with crushed iceI'm fed up with Bucks Fizz on Christmas day. Can you advise me of any other suitable festive cocktails?
    How about lining the inside of your rucksack with liquorice
    Kir Royal





    9cl (9 parts) Champagne


    1cl (1 part) cr猫me de cassis





    Preparation: Add the cr猫me de cassis to the bottom of the flute, then top up with champagne.
    Do you ever talk with the people working in the (store) grocery liquor store or wine shop..


    G,..L,.. champagne,, egg nog ,,mulled wines


    PS never heard of Bucks Fizz Is that like ginger ale..
    how about a snowball?


    2 shots of advaccat


    top up of lemonade


    and a shot of lime cordial


    and a slice of lemon and a cherry.
    Sparkling wine with cranberry or pommegranate juice, or check out www.lakeland.co.uk. Here you can buy a jar of hibiscus flowers in a rich syrup. You just pop one of these flowers into a champagne flute with champagne or sparkling wine. The flower gradually begins to open and the syrup gives the wine a beautiful rich colour and taste......and when you've finished the drink.....you can eat the flower!!! They are really good...and great if you want to impress with something that little bit different!!

    try using Cranberry juice with your champaigne......
    Irishmans' Boilermakers; using a tall stein or beer mug, fill 3/4 full of Killians' Irish Red, then in an shot glass; put a full shot of Bushmills' Irish Whiskey, just before drinking the beer, drop the shot glass gently into the stein or mug, then down the hatch!

    Can anybody with scientific knowledge advise on a product that can stop dark hair turning grey?

    I'm 30 and have recently noticed hairs around the ears have gone grey. I am horrified because when I was young I thought people only started to turn grey in their 40's. Please only answer if you are scientifically qualified and do not mention shock, genetics, or ';women find it attractive';Can anybody with scientific knowledge advise on a product that can stop dark hair turning grey?
    DyeCan anybody with scientific knowledge advise on a product that can stop dark hair turning grey?
    Dye it! No prescription needed! lol
    I have a lot of scientific knowledge. But I don't know of anything that has been shown to stop a natural and genetically caused process such as grey hair, or balding for that matter. You act as if it is a curse. It doesn't mean that your old, it just means you have a few gret hairs. I started getting a few grey hairs when I was about 25, I still don't have a lot of grey hair, and I'm 46. So all is not lost.





    Here are you choices, as I see them:


    1. Go grey in a gradual manner and be accepted as such, like most, if not all other men. Most men can dismiss it as being caused by marriage or having children (OK, it's a lie, but most people accept this as a valid dismissive excuse). You might also make light of it by suggesting it is your higher brain activity is forcing your hair follicles to also become grey matter. People might view you as mature (wise), rather than old.





    2. Start covering up now, and do so until you feel you are old enough to be seen as grey haired. This option comes with a warning - you will then appear to go grey very quickly.





    3. Shave your head.





    So - the answer is no.





    Accept it, or live in denial. 30 is not too young to go grey.





    Hope this helps, but I suspect that it didn't. Sorry.
    two words...........george cloney.........go grey gracefully......its sooooooooooo attractive on guys your age
    Permanent marker. Try a sharpie. Ciao!


    -C
    it is called growing old. Try just for men hair color.
    No need to dye it petal! Go to the health food shop, get some zinc and B vitamin complex. Should help a lot. And I know you don't want to hear this, but I think silvery hair is really foxy actually..... good luck! xxx
    Eating apricots slow the graying process. There's also an herb called Fo-Ti . There is a supplement called, ';Gerovital'; or ';GH-3'; that will rejuvenate hair pigmentation but the FDA bans it in the US because it helps make a lot of prescription drugs obsolete. It's available over the counter in Mexico.
    You can't stop your body from stopping pigmentation production, which is what has happened.
    do you really think someone like that is on here? lmfao
    Why are you worried about grey hair, it would appear you still have hair to go grey. Do yourself a favour you vain person and shave it all off, people can then call you baldy, take your mind off going grey
    I would recommend lots of different alternatives,


    like Provacor, the more natural hiar restorere, Rogiane to stimulate hiar follocoles, or Men Plus, a more or less tehn natural that keeps the grey out.
    You'l be oK
    boot polish? or Grecian 2000 (do they still make it? )

    Why was Rumsfeld about to advise Bush that strategies in Iraq needed to be drastically changed?

    The news came out today that Rumsfeld was about to advise Bush that strategies in Iraq needed some drastic changes, but for some strange reason resigned the day after mid-term elections.





    Very odd...





    Why?





    .Why was Rumsfeld about to advise Bush that strategies in Iraq needed to be drastically changed?
    concrete will eventually absorb water,and ';Rummy'; finally saw the true picture...Now we've got one more concrete block to go ,and then.........Time to ';cut and run'; although we'll have a new name for it by then........Why was Rumsfeld about to advise Bush that strategies in Iraq needed to be drastically changed?
    Man...it's all about the politics. And this memo may have been one of dozens. Putting too much meaning into this one scrap of paper could make one look brilliant, or foolish. Without seeing the accompanying paperwork that went with it and making any hard comment would really be nothing more than speculation. Of course, I have an inherent mistrust of our government no matter who sits in the Oval Office.
    Maybe it has to do with the winning of THIS secret ';prize';!...


    http://www.strayreality.com/Lanis_Strayr鈥?/a>
    Rumplesfeld can say anything he wants now that he has been kicked out of office. None of those involved with this administration deserve to be listened to by the people of America.
    I read that on saturday. Its a play because bush wants to be free of blame, so he blames everyone else.
    Bush already had that talk with him way before he resigned and was surprised that Rumsfeld decided to resign when he did. So whats your point? Rumsfeld got out before the demo's tried to oust him. He's gone now, no longer in, so maybe we can move on. You should be trying to dig up dirt on the new guy!
    He didn't resign, he was fired. And if he was going to advise Bush that some drastic changes neede to be made, he was only stating the obvious and maybe trying to save his job. Bush had decided the Rumsfeld had to go some weeks before. Current ';strategies '; are a total failed police.
    Bush is just trying to make Rummie look good.


    Why? Dunno.......

    In my essay i have been asked to advise a client who murdered his wife with a baseball bat.?

    They had been having problems for a while and were always fighting in front of their teenage son. The husband suspected the wife was having an affair. The wife forgot her phone and the husband wet through it and found a text which proved that the wife was indeed having an affair. The husband then took a baseball bat and murdered the wife. The son saw this and called the police and the husband was arrested. How do i advise him, i dont know how to start this assignemt. Any ideas please i would really appreciate it........In my essay i have been asked to advise a client who murdered his wife with a baseball bat.?
    I'd advise him to run away to some 3rd world country and lay low.In my essay i have been asked to advise a client who murdered his wife with a baseball bat.?
    Swing away
    Was this an aluminum or a wooden bat?
    Temporary insanity comes to mind. Manslaughter instead of first degree murder.*
    As attorneys, when we write an opinion letter, the first thing we is write our conclusion: ';Mr. Doe, you have retained me as counsel to represent you and to give you advice concerning the charges the state has brought against you. It is my legal opinion that you will most likely not be found guilty of first degree murder, but that you may be facing a charge of manslaughter.';





    You then describe the applicable law:





    ';In this state, murder is defined as.... manslaughter is defined as....';


    I can tell from your fact pattern that this essay involves the rule of manslaughter of ';reasonably extreme emotional disturbance'; i.e. a person in the heat of passion does not develop the prerequisite mental state necessary for murder. After seeing the messages, your client went into a rage which he could not control, the fights he had with the decedent show that he was an angry man predisposed to such fits and far removed from the cold calculation and premeditation necessary for a murder charge etc. etc. Before you write your essay, you should review your materials, which may involve cases.





    After you have stated the applicable laws, you describe how the laws work, that is, you describe the cases that may be relevant to your opinion. If you have a case that you read where the husband found his wife in bed with another man and he shot them both, then you explain the facts of that case and the reason why the judge(s) ruled they way that they did.





    Next, you apply the facts of your case to the rule of law, either distinguishing from cases that hurt you, or describing how your case fits within the rules. This is the most important part of the essay because it shows how you can apply facts to the law, which is in what both your teacher and judges are interested.





    Finally, you give your conclusion again. When I write conclusions, I write a one sentence paragraph that basically says, ';For the foregoing reasons, you will mostly likely be found not guilty of first degree murder, but guilty of manslaughter.'; or ';The Prosecution's motion should be DENIED.'; You should include some sentences on the maximum and minimum penalties your client could face, and about the possibility of a plea bargain. You might include sentences that make the reader believe that this is a letter to your client. You must write to your intended audience which is a teacher looking to see you write a client letter.





    This style of writing is known as CREAC, and it is taught in American law schools.
    First, you tell him to shut his mouth and get the facts of what happened. A slick lawyer will be able to ask questions in a way to get the big picture without limiting their legal options. For example, you don't ask ';did you kill her';, but, ';how did the police find out she was injured';, and, ';what did you tell the police';...





    If the factual evidence shows that he definitely did it, and/or he admitted to it, you can ask questions about his state of mind to build a case for either manslaughter (extreme emotional disturbance) or temporary insanity (unlikely and doesn't work so well anymore).





    I'm not commenting on the ethics of doing this, just that this is the way to do it.
    I would not advice him of anything except what he is charged with, until I have heard his side of the story. Then I would tell him to keep his mouth shut to the police and anyone else. I would gather information from the investigation (from the police through discovery). I would advise my client of the evidence, and ask him questions relating to the evidence. I would file motions to have my client checked by a physiologist to establish his frame of mind (intent) at the time of the crime, and if he is able to stand trial. I would interview the state's witnesses and observe their evidence. I would question my client concerning these matters - and would discuss a possible defense to the charges. The age of the son and the relationship that existed between the father and son would be large issues to establish credibility of the witness. Hope this helps.
    You start by getting the police reports, medical examiners report. Then determine the strength of the case, in your opinion. Discuss it with the client and let him make the decision whether to enter in a plea bargain. If he is unable to make and informed decision, wait for the preliminary hearing and file for discovery which allows you a more in depth look at what the persecutors case is, then make a decision as to guilty or not guilty plea. Keep in mind that 95 percent of the people in prison today are because the took a plea bargain.

    Hi, i would like to build a 22ft by 12ft house. Advise on variety of plans i would use.?

    At roughly double the size of two decent storage sheds, why not just craft this as many you can see in parking lots of large home improvement stores. In fact why not just buy two and modify them to suit. It also equates to a very small mobile home or camper trailer.





    There are likely dozens of images online of Small cabins in various styles. PLANS aren't going to be free in a strict sense, and some of your issue may depend on zoning and code regs. ?Hi, i would like to build a 22ft by 12ft house. Advise on variety of plans i would use.?
    The most important part of designing a house is the inside not the outside. Decide what rooms you want in the house what size the rooms should be and how much space you have left. In a house that small you will have limited space for rooms so just design only what will be necessary. Once you've drawn your house you can go to any home depot and they will help you estemate how much lumber you will need.

    Im getting ready to leave for bootcamp. Does anyone have any advise?

    Im 17 yrs old and Im getting ready to leave for Navy bootcamp and I am so nervous. My main fears are all of the shots you get, PT and being away from home. Is there anyone who has been to Navy Basic recently and has any helpful advise?!?Im getting ready to leave for bootcamp. Does anyone have any advise?
    Try not to dwell so long on the vaccinations. I think I psyched myself out thinking about it. The way we were given our shots, we didn't see how they were doing it until we were right at the door.





    Like everyone else said, start your exercising now. Try to get to the standard fitness level that you'll need to pass.





    Try to get along with the people in your flight and stay the Hell away from the drama. (This is probably obvious)You do not want to have enemies. I've seen and heard of people being sabotaged by their fellow flight mates. It's a pathetic thing to do, but unfortunately some people your age just lack the civility to handle situations.





    I went through BMT for a different branch, so I don't know when they actually issue you your uniform, but I would wear old shoes just in case they have you march somewhere. I wore some boots that aren't made for marching in(They had really deep grooves on the soles) and the heels were pretty much destroyed from doing facing movements on the road.

    1. Don't be early.


    2. Don't ever be late for anything!!! EVER!!!


    3. Never, ever, ever, ever, ever volunteer for ANYTHING!!!





    Don't worry about the shots, I saw brawny guys faint dead away at a simple poke with a needle. Hurts less than getting your ears pierced.





    The PT? If you are in any decent shape at all you should do ok.





    Being away from home? You're going to be too busy (or too tired) to worry about home. (p.s. Write home as often as you can...Keeping your loved ones informed of your activities can often be as helpful as getting mail from home).





    You have my respects. God Bless and Godspeed!

    Don't mess up in the real world.


    Then you be safe.
    Start exercising rigorously now so boot camp won't be so bad. The quicker you lose your self-identity and become part of the military family, the better off you will be.





    Shots aren't bad.
    TRUST ME, THEY DO NOT PT YOU THAT HARD!! BOOT CAMP WAS SO EASY... MY ADVICE WOULD BE TO BE CAREFUL OF THE FOOD THEY SERVE YOU!! IM SO NOT JOKING, BUT IN NAVY BOOT CAMP, DURING MEALS, THERE WILL BE THESE LADIES WALKING AROUND WITH TRAYS OF STUFF LIKE COOKIES AND ICE CREAM ON THEM. DONT GAIN 20 POUNDS LIKE I DID. IT TOOK ME 6 MONTHS TO GET THAT WEIGHT OFF :( LOL... AND AS FOR THE SHOTS, I DONT KNOW HOW TO HELP YOU THERE, JUST TAKE IT LIKE A CHAMP. WHAT THEY DO IS, YOU WALK DOWN THIS AISLE AND THERE WILL BE PEOPLE WAITING ON THE LEFT AND RIGHT WAITING TO GIVE YOU SHOTS!! ITS SO TERRIBLE!! AND YES YOU ARE GOING TO BE AWAY FROM HOME BUT THE GOOD THING IS THAT MAIL CALL IS EVERY NIGHT AND YOU CAN WRITE HOME EVERY SUNDAY DURING HOLDIAY ROUTINE. ANYWAY, GOOD LUCK!!
    Lol!


    PT in the Navy isn't hard unless you don't know how to run or can't do situps or pushups. As for the shots - they are done in less than a minute depending on what you have to get. The only one that really sucks is the ';peanut butter'; shot. (It really does feel like they injected you with ';peanut butter';.) Don't psyche yourself out! Try to get a job on Div staff! (You don't have to stand watches then - so more sleep for you!) Being away from home does suck and after 8 weeks you feel like you've been in RTC forever. But don't cry it's not worth tears or the yelling at you might get from your female RDC who does not believe in crying! Here's helpful hints:





    - Know your 10 general orders inside and out: up and down right and left - its much easier if you know them all before you get there it saves on pushups and eight counts.





    -Don't get involved in the DRAMA!!! Okay I cannot emphasize this enough - stay away from that and don't even bother trying to get a boyfriend or whatever - it isn't worth it.





    -Learn your rank structure before you go so you can save yourself a lot of pushups by calling a Senior Chief, Chief or a Chief, Petty Officer or god forbid an officer, chief.





    -And the most important thing is this: You enlisted to do a job. Don't bother trying to get a date or some loving. You are there to do a job, just do your job. There will be plenty of time to live through the drama and all that jazz in the fleet. Just get out of boot camp.





    PS - Don't go to sick call if you can help it. It'll set you back, and drink lots of milk - it's good to prevent shin splints and stress fractures. I'm talking about 3 glasses a day.
    Just remember that your drill instructors are people too, don't take the things they say or do too seriously, and always remember that it is going to end soon enough, just keep your head down and your mouth shut, you'll do fine...
    Follow instructions, don't stand out from the crowd, don't take anything the TIs say personally, you will probably get attitude from everyone. Don't take any of it personally. Be orderly with your stuff. Keep everything clean and neat.
    Don't go.
    The boot camp these days is like going to a spa. So just enjoy the free ride.....

  • When you give out advise does it come more from you caring or you being judgmental?

    I can't really say if its either or it just depends on the question. I mean some people are really looking for answers and I try to help them as much as I can.





    On the other hand, there are stupid people that ask dumb questions and they're going to be answered accordingly.





    Like this senario.





    There is a 18 yr old asking how she can break up a family because she likes her male neighbor and wants him all to herself. She asks not to be judgmental and persist she's not a home wrecker because his kids are 19 and 20-something. In this situation I would be blunt and sarcastic maybe even intentionally rude.





    But with a question like yours, where you need an honest answer I give you one and hope I helped you enough then go on my merry way.When you give out advise does it come more from you caring or you being judgmental?
    Depending on the situation in which I am giving advice it's a little of both I guess. I don't mean to be judgmental but I guess in all honesty I sometimes am. Never in a negative way like some people. I just say what I believe and if the person still disagrees or decides to go in a different direction I give up. I am not pushy when it come to giving advice.When you give out advise does it come more from you caring or you being judgmental?
    I judge no one.





    I'm a pretty messed up guy myself so I have no right to judge anyone.





    Every little piece of advice I give comes from my experience and hard learned lessons. I wouldn't wish my life and it's history on my worst enemy. So yes, everything I give in the form of advice is of genuine concern. I have learned how it's done wrong and how it's done right. I want other people to learn from my mistakes. If one person doesn't go through what I have as a result of me helping them do it right, then going through what I have was worth it.
    Most of the time, it comes from a desire to help, if I can... Occasionally, though, if I've just seen it asked too much, or if it's obviously troll-like, I can lose my patience, and be less-than-civil. :) (Plus, pregnancy hormones can get the better of me, at times.)





    But, two things I don't like, are:





    1.) When someone DEMANDS you answer them.





    2.) When people only ask a question, cause they want to hear what they want to hear, and they, themselves, are not tolerant to their responder's opinions... And, then they give you a thumbs-down!
    For me it always comes from me caring. I think answerers who come from a place of judgment and condemnation are very rude and have no reason to be hurtful or condescending to a stranger.





    So even if some of my answers sound a bit gruff, they come from a place of pure love and caring and a desire to help. Always. :-)
    Personally I do it out of willingness to help and, of course, caring. Sometimes you are the one giving the advice and some other times you are the one receiving, in which case it is always good to hear someone that cares for you and wants you to make the right choices.
    When I give advice it's to the best of my knowledge because I want to help the person asking the question. The only time it's more judgmental is when the question is ridiculous and the person asking the question is clearly trying to stir up trouble.
    depends on the persons question or statement!





    Most of the time I offer my opinion or advice from a caring heart. but other times when a persons inquiry is so obviously stupid I just cant help myself and cave into my rude side.





    Hey, just being 100% honest here
    I give advice because i care.. I only answer the ones i have a personal experience with... I give the best advice i can in hopes that when i ask a question someone does the same for me, cause i know people can be mean sometimes..
    It completely depends on the issue.





    I can go either way, although I do try to be as non-judgemental as possible.





    A lot of times, people have a hard time dealing with constructive criticism.



    It depends on the situation in which I'm giving advise. It tends to be more on the caring side than the judgmental side though!
    It comes more from me caring. I'm only judging what the person has told me and I try to give a better solution to whatever it is they're going through.
    It depends on the question. Some are so ridiculous they aren't worth answering.
    caring
    I care far too much to judge anyone, no one is perfect.

    This way the premiums will be very low and at least you will have coverage in case something really big happens like cancer, surgery, etc.

    I am off to Barcelona in 2 weeks time. Can you advise which tourist attractions are worth seeing?

    go to sitges for the day, it is about a 30 minute drive and it is beautiful. It is a beach tow and the beaches are divided up for families, single/lesbian women, and singlegay men. You can rent small boats, and paddle boats with slides on them. I was there for 3 days and wished i could have stayed much longerI am off to Barcelona in 2 weeks time. Can you advise which tourist attractions are worth seeing?
    Get the tourist bus. Their is a red and a green route you can hop on and off and switch routes. I can not remember if one day ticket does both but it is a good buy. As you come out of the Station go into Los Angles ( I think that is the mane of the department store) Top floor buy yourself a snack a meal or a coffee the view is: WoooW!I am off to Barcelona in 2 weeks time. Can you advise which tourist attractions are worth seeing?
    I noticed that they Gaudi 's building and Picasso are already covered by others. there is something left though... FOOD... go to 4 GATS near Las Ramlas st. where Picasso used to hang out. they have a appetizer, the entry and the desert for a very reasonable price and a drink (wine or soft drinks). and the food tastes great .. you Will love it there... if you like shopping , there is a street in parallel with Las Ramblas , called something Angelese... it's on the right handof Las Ramblas.. full of great stores...don't forget to try Tapas....


    they are the best in sea food. and also have CAVA with your feed.


    I wanna go back already! I was there 2 months...


    Have FUN!
    Picasso Museum, Joan Miro Fundacion, Mont Juiic, Barri Gotic, Las Ramblas, Placa del Rei and City Musuem...Sagrada Familia,
    Easiest thing to do is to do what I did. Get the Bus Turistic Open-Top bus from Placa de Catalunya at the top of Las Ramblas. It'll take you to every major tourist attraction in the city and really helps you to get your bearings. Tickets are valid for either 24 or 48 hours and its Hop-On Hop-Off as many times as you like.

    There are many great place to visit in Barcelona, so as mentioned before the best thing is to get on the tourist bus (there are 2 routes, one north and the other south) you can buy tickets in the tourist office in Plaza de Catalunya or on the bus. There is a choice of 1 or 2 day tickets and to be honest I'd buy the 2 day ticket as there is so much to see. You can hop on and off all day and change buses. On top of the things to see would be the architecture which is very impressive, even if you're not cultural (Parc G眉ell, Liceu, Las Ramblas. La Pedrera and Sagragarda Familia amongst many!)


    Then you should miss a trip to Camp Nou to the stadium and Montjuic is a great place to visit as well and the views are incredible! And if you've got time take a trip up to Tibidarbo which is incredible.





    If you like shopping there is a large department store 'el corte ingles' in Plaza Catalunya. Also walk around the barrio gothico which has some great hidden shops, if you like designer clothes go to Paseo de Gracia. There are also lots of museums including the Picasso museum.





    And don't forget to go to the beach! At night go to the Port Olympic which is full of bars and restaurants.





    What ever you do have a great time!

    For sure the Barri Gotic around the cathedral, Parque Guell, La Sagrada Familia, Mont Juic. Best take a three day pass for the Turist Bus Lines (3 lines). Those busses take you to all points of interest. Don麓t miss the Fundaci贸 Joan Mir贸 with it麓s terrace cafe on the slopes of Mont Juic. Have a stoll en Las Ramblas.


    First thing arriving go to the turist info!!!!


    If you got enough of the town, you can tak the train from Plaza Espnya to the coisters of Montserrat as a day trip or from Sants Station a trin to Tarragona with a lot of roman ruins.


    Enjoy your trip!
    Weel I went to the Parque G眉ell yesterday and think it's worth visiting. If you want to go to the Sagrada Familia, do it by night. In the Passeig de Gracia you'll find 2 houses from Gaudi : Casa Mila and Casa Batllo. I've been told that the casa Mila is great and much more cheaper (4 or 5 鈧?instead of 16鈧?.


    Wee, I live in Barcelona, so if you need more information, places to go out or whatever, contact me.


    Enjoy your stay!

    Barcelona Walking Tours


    Barcelona centre is a very pleasant location to walk around. Much of the area has been pedestrianized, with wide open boulevards that make walking tours a very pleasurable way to visit the city.





    Many sights can be seen simply by walking around as the city centre is much smaller than you may think. In the Barri Gotic area (historic quarters) for example, you have nearly a whole day's worth of sights to experience alone without the need for taking any form of public transport. In this area you will see the neighbourhoods in which the great painters Picasso and Miro grew up in. You will also see wonderful examples of Catalan architecture the most notable e.g. being Barcelona Cathedral.

    I did the Barcelona City Tour and Zoo full day, there are privare tours available that go to many more places but cost more heres the link for them http://www.barcelonatourguides.com
    Don't miss the Monastery at Montserratt, it's awesome. It's about 45k north of Barcelona inland and about another 40k north further on there is an 8th century castle which is now a Parador. It's well worth staying the night or just going up there to sit on their terrace and have a coffee. At least you will have visited a place with real history.
