Ted Kennedy remained hospitalized Saturday for tests after reportedly suffering two seizures earlier in the day.
Initial reports indicated Kennedy, who had surgery in October to repair a nearly complete blockage in a major neck artery, suffered stroke-like symptoms.
Dr. Jennifer H. Mieres, a cardiologist and associate professor of medicine at New York University [...]
The family trees of the English, Scottish, Welsh, and Irish are overwhelmingly indigenous to the British Isles since far back into prehistoric times. The invasions of the Normans, Vikings, Anglo-Saxons, and Romans merely added a fairly minor overlay to the prehistoric gene pool.
Having been told multiple times in the past few months of the resemblance between Ellen Page and myself, I decided to post this collage, for your amusement.
Or maybe just for mine.
She, however, is quite petite. I’d appreciate it if the rest of my body decided to mimic her appearance.

Get this, today I realized that my father and Bill O'Reilly have a lot in common. Both were born within months of each other, were born in Brooklyn, both moved to Levittown, Long Island in 1951, both have two kids, a boy and a girl... They would have known each other, maybe even been in the same graduating class, if Bill's family wasn't catholic and sent him to Catholic school. I just think it is really creepy and weird...Oh and I just watched the Hillary Clinton interview... He didn't attack her at least. She was awesome. The Socialist comment? Please, and why in this country is Socialist considered a four letter word? Some Socialist ideas were pretty good, if only carried out by the right people. What can I say, I am a bit of a Marxist...
By Clara MoskowitzStaff WriterSPACE.comMarch 18, YahooMars and Venus, those seemingly contrasting planets of self-help book fame, have more in common than you might think. Two nearly identical spacecraft around Mars and Venus have compared the two worlds' atmospheres and found them to be surprisingly similar.The ESA's Mars Express and Venus Express are currently in orbit around the planets taking measurements of their atmospheres as they interact with solar radiation. The data show that charged particles from the gas layers around both planets are being scavenged by solar wind and storms."Mars and Venus are very different planets," said David Brain, a planetary scientist at the University of California, Berkeley, and a supporting investigator for Venus Express. "Venus's atmosphere is very

Allergies are the most common cause of the inflammation which underlies most asthma particularly in younger sufferers.
Allergy rates are on the increase especially in Western countries (compared to people in less affluent rural parts of the world) and there is a growing body of evidence that strongly suggests that asthma is an environmentally induced disease.
This raises the challenging possibility that we may be able to prevent asthma by altering our environment.
Treating asthma by removing...

Leopard and Vista - More alike than you might think by ZDNet’s Adrian Kingsley-Hughes — When Vista was released the chorus of complaints and criticisms quickly grew from a low hum to a near deafening roar. A little more than a week since Apple released Leopard and that low hum of discontent has already been amplified to the point where it’s starting to hurt my ears.
It is interesting to see Adrian’s comparisons and I agree with the end of his post:
“The strange thing is that I’m quite happy with my Mac and Leopard. I’m guessing that this is because I’m still near the bottom of the Mac OS X learning curve and not pushing the OS too hard.”
As I am pretty happy with my Macbook and Leopard, but then again, I am new to Mac and probably near the bottom of the learning curve as well. Take a look at his post and the comparisons and feel free to comment. What are your thoughts on this?
We are blessed to have in our home toddlers and teenagers at the same time. As we watch our children grow my husband and I have noticed several similarities between the two.13 Things Toddlers and Teenagers Have in CommonThey can both throw great tantrums.They both think, "I can do it all by myself!"They both need to be reminded to brush their teeth and comb their hair. (usually the boys)They both are a little stinky in the morning. (again, usually the boys)You still wonder if the bedroom has a floor, it is always covered with toys and stuff.They are still your little baby!They both eat more than you think their stomach can hold.They both need to know how much mom and dad love them.They both need to know they are a gift from the Lord.When you are in a hurry they can never find their shoes.They can sleep anywhere!They both like to use the word "mine" too often.They both require too many accessories.

Once again it has been a long time. I know there are a few loved ones who check here for news. The thing is I work more than full time and in addition I’m on call 50 percent of every second in my life. It is too much. When I get home I crash but remember 50 percent of that time I’m subject to go out anywhere in the county at any hour and I do. There is no sum of money to equal the sacrifice.I continue with health problems and I’m certainly another victim of our evil, money grubbing health care (lack of) system. However, I will pay the full amount for a re-pap to rule out cancer as suggested by my doctor, especially since I have all the signs and symptoms of endometrial cancer. Hopefully I’ll come out okay but if not I’ll do whatever is necessary. Every day is different with
I wanted to post this question here in this blog for a very long time but I was quite hesitant to do so in the past due to several reasons. However, today I decided to go ahead with the idea after seeing my previous post about Brother Abdullah posted yesterday received more than 2,000 unique hits or visitors to date! Amazing!So, what are the similarities between Hinduism and Islam?No no… I’m not going to give preaches here today. I would let Dr. Zakir Naik do the talking instead through the video that I have provided down below.SubhanAllah! Believe me, there are no other lectures that I have seen so far that could truly give us some light into the question that I had posed today. It is the best lecture that I have seen and heard so far in my whole life!I strongly recommend both Muslims and Hindus to view the video down below. It is very lengthy; in fact it is the longest video that I had ever posted here in this blog. The whole running time is 1 hour: 50 minutes: 22 seconds! Please
A SAUDI teacher in Samta Governorate has confessed to the police that she tortured an Indonesian house cleaner who was hospitalized and later died due to the severity of her injuries. The woman torched the cleaner and also struck her a number of times on the head; the cleaner suffered from broken ribs, a broken wrist and burns which had not been treated. According to a report published in Arab News last December, on its recent visit to the Kingdom, the Human Rights Watch (HRW) delegation received hundreds of calls from people about their grievances and a majority of those calls were concerned with maids and how they were treated.A colleague was reading yesterday's report on the tortured maid and he made a comment that is the essence of the problem, "It is about slavery," he said. And he was right; the same attitude and mind-set still exists in 21st-cenury Saudi Arabia. At a time when the Royal Academy of Art in London has mounted an exhibition dealing with the history of slavery,
The “Siberia Bill” was the final extension of a decade-long psychiatric effort to simplify commitment procedures, the bill specifically called for the establishment of a remote Alaskan mental health facility and radically streamlined means of incarcerating inmates-hence the nickname “Siberia Bill” to remind the people of precisely what the plan comprised, i.e. an American Gulag. Eventually described by the Superior Court Judge as representing, “totalitarian government at its best” the bill proposed that “any health welfare or police officer who has reason to believe that an individual is mentally ill and therefore likely to injure himself or others if not immediately restrained” may transport that individual to a mental asylum for professional evaluation.There, “the prisoner” could be detained five days, or if judged mentally incompetent, “for the rest of his natural life.” No statement of probably cause was required, no issue of warrant was necessary, and no he
