A hero for any child with ADD, ADHD
By Aisha Sultan
St. Louis Post-Dispatch

For any parent who has heard a teacher say: Your son just can’t sit still. He doesn’t pay attention. For any parent who has heard a doctor say: Your child should be on meds for their attention disorder. For any parent who has seen their child struggle to bring home a report card filled with Cs or Ds.
Tell your child about swimmer Michaels Phelps. (Read the NYT story about his struggles in school and his diagnosis here.) Show them what is possible: 11 gold medals. And counting.

Never overlook the obvious

Some can never be left alone, because they don't know how to behave otherwise.

Getting blamed for something you didn't do is one thing, but do to ignorance its hard to get people to see otherwise even if prove yourself repeatedly.

Suppose nothing else were "given" as real except our world of desires and passions, and we could not get down, or up, to any other "reality" besides the reality of our drives--for thinking is merely a relation of these drives to each other: is it not permitted to make the experiment and to ask the question whether this "given" would not be sufficient for also understanding on the basis of this kind of thing the so-called mechanistic (or "material") world?... Nietzche

Balloon

I think that I might fly away, in my hot air balloon,And hide from worldly worries on the dark side of the moon;There’s but one thing I need before I float into the blue:I need a sky companion and I want it to be you.We’ll fly beyond the storm clouds and we’ll watch from up above,I’ll cover you in rainbows as we feel each others’ love;You’ll shower in the stars at midnight in our special place,I’ll dry you with a comet’s tail and kiss your beaming face.Dreamy drifting panorama, changing every day,Every night your loving smile will be my milky way,The moon will wane before us, sailing there in heaven’s height,For nothing else can challenge our love’s everlasting light.Venus shining on us, glowing soft at our devotion,Our daily drifting dalliance in love’s celestial ocean,I’ll write you lovers’ poetry, and you will be my muse,Orion and Andromeda will oversee our cruise.We’ll sleep with clouds as pillows, maybe steal an angel’s wings,Then fly as magic lovebirds, or slide round Saturn’s rings,And should we tire of drifting and the stars all floating by,We’ll hook onto a meteor and soar across the sky.Will you consent to be my mate on our celestial ship?I’m ready, heart all packed with love, to last us for the trip,Take my hand and step aboard, we’re heading for the sun,We’re flying till we find the place where our two souls are one.- Graeme King -

Sometimes you're overwhelmed when a thing comes, and you do not realize the magnitude of the affair at that moment. When you get away from it, you wonder, did it really happen to you”- Marion Anderson

I Fell in Love With a Dream
By chance I found you, Fate met me half way and I saw your face, Got caught up in your sultry eyes, Fell head first into the warmth of your hug, Smelled your sweet smell and I was hooked, I took one look into your brown pools, Staring at me and I knew it was something, Different about you, Was it the way you smiled, The sweet words you spoke, Your swagger your flavor, That had me running to the phone, Hoping it was you thinking of me, Was it the poetic verses you wrote, Describing your love for me, Melting away my insecurities, With words so heartfelt and bittersweet, Was it the passionate way you kissed me, To the moon and back, Held me tender yet tighter as I asked, Knew where and when to grab, But not just your body you so kindly offered, You gave me a whole new world, To dream in as you intrigued me, With all you've done, All your hopes ambitions and desires, Surpassed my conscious mind, And in time I found myself wanting to travel, The journey with you hand and hand, Stand with you and discover my path, With someone I'm proud to be with, I fell in love,
I fell in love with a dream,
It's not real just yet,
But one day,
One day,
If I keep praying,
I'll find him......

It's funny how people behave when they are not at home under the watchful eye of their parents.

My favorite quote: I was in church when it happened.

ADA's Women and Diabetes Workgroup

Because of the significant impact diabetes has on women, the American Diabetes Association created the Women and Diabetes Workgroup. Its mission is to represent, involve, and affect all women in our efforts to prevent and cure diabetes and improve the lives of people affected by this disease. This will be accomplished through gender and culturally tailored strategies to direct the Association's activities and through targeted research, information, and advocacy efforts.

Communication strategy and communicative competence:

Communication is simply defined as a process in which a message is sent from senders to receivers. In a technical description, it is said that the sender encodes a message and the receiver decodes it. Communication problems occur when the encoded message differs from the decoded message. In other words, the message sent is not the message received. The development of sociolinguistics has shifted the attention of research from the nature of the mechanistic aspect of transmission to the significance of communication in its social context. Thus, instead of treating grammatical knowledge as primary in communication, sociolinguistics focuses on social determinants of language use. Communicative competence is orientated towards this shift. While it is essential to recognise social factors in communicative competence, cognitive factors equally play an important roles as the encoding process is the primary source of communication in which encoders need to make use of all available resources, social as well as cognitive to achieve their communicative goals.

Managerial economics (also called business economics), is a branch of economics that applies microeconomic analysis to specific business decisions. As such, it bridges economic theory and economics in practice. It draws heavily from quantitative techniques such as regression analysis and correlation, Lagrangian calculus (linear). If there is a unifying theme that runs through most of managerial economics it is the attempt to optimize business decisions given the firm's objectives and given constraints imposed by scarcity, for example through the use of operations research and programming

NC First Review: LOLLIPOP SHOP BOUTIQUE for kids, located on Battleground in Greensboro, NC. Great quality clothes which are more expensive than usual. But, I can always catch a good sale and find something unique that every other kid will have on.

I sought for Love But Love ran away from me. I sought my Soul But my Soul I couldn't see. Then I sought You, And I found all three. ~ by Unknown Author

The chemistry profession gets a bad reputation. But, if there were none and you were sick, who would take care of you? If someone told you they were an "independent pharmaceutical distributor" then get worried.
