My first question is Why do so many women seem to prefer c-section over natural birth??? I plan on giving natural as long as its ok for the baby but Im not saying eighter is wrong or right I just have read a lot about women requesting c-sections so I was wondering why? What do you prefer and why? And my next question is I have made a birth plan and Im wondering for other people that have done this do you feel that it made a difference? I know that the birth plan will not go exact because you never know what can come up during labor but it made me feel more surcure about labor and also its kinda a way for the father to know my wishes as far as certain things. My birth plan is really more important to me for the after labor....as far as them giving my baby formula and things like that. Anyway if you had a birthplan did it help and if you didnt do you feel like you wish you had one or it really didnt matter to you??

Our next door neighbour - an apartment, not a seperate house - is a techno fan. Last weekend, from Friday night to 5:30 Monday morning all we could hear was the constant doof doof doof of his "repetitive beats".
(Now bear in mind we are in Australia where the culture frowns heavily on criticising or complaining.)
Has anyone had to contend with such neighbours themselves, and how did they resolve it peacefully?

In a sense Jesus is still on the cross for our sins? When we sin, Jesus still feels or sees the pain?

Okay, I made a careless mistake with spelling. However, a simple spelling error is not nearly as pathetic as all the numerous shortcuts that many lazy people use. Forgive me for my error.

Mine would be both Mimi Marquez from Rent and Carmen Jones played by Dorothy Dandridge. I like playing the vixen and seductress. Its so far off from the real me though.

Conservatives are all about thier so-called "culture of life", but they don't seem to care much about life once it leaves the womb. Thousands of embryos are thrown in the trash every year. Wouldn’t it be better to use them to relieve the suffering of others?

I have to ask this: What is a better option if Conservatives are really serious about "culture of life": Throw the embryonic cells in the trash or use them to grow a new heart for a baby born with a bad one?

Think about that and get back to me.

What to you think of the RJ Reynolds TV ads that tell adults to talk to their kids about not smoking?

At some point in time, all current smokers will be dead - trust me on this. Does it make sense that a big tobacco company would say 'future market share, don't buy our product'?

Of course not.

By the way, outside of the US, advertising regulations are much more lax. The tobacco companies are doing a very effective job targeting teens (especially young women) in Europe and Asia.

If one child is spared by a 'don't smoke' message, then the campaign is worthwhile. But it isn't about that.

It's about a megacompany wrapping the cloak of good corporate citizen around themselves (to comply with US ad laws) while exploiting the same (and bigger) audiences in foreign countries.

Is anyone outraged by this spin?

I am writing a literacy assessment for a parent and student. I am trying to find an easy way to say that her child uses 'inflection' in his voice while reading in quotations. We were told not to use any 'literacy language' in the assessment. How can I say this in another way?
