My son who is 4.5 months had two seizures last Saturday, after a CT and Lp and some metabolic tests they sent us home the next day and said they would not run anymore tests until he had another because sometimes kids just have seizures. Well this past Saturday he had another, I am going to the doctor today to discuss more tests.

I was told this was common, and I am wonderingif anyone else has experienced this with their children, what should I expect today at the doctors? These were not febral seizures.

I have a 55 gallon with 3 2" cichlids, 1 6" jack demsey, an algae eater, and a narrow black fish, don't know what it is but he has a hammerhead and my son calls him a shark, but he's not the typical silver type mini shark. He's 5" --> anyone know what he might be called?.

I have few fish & I haven't done a water change in quite a while -- about 10 months. We have very hard water so I know the water gets harder if you don't do water changes and just keep topping off the tank, however, all of the fish were happy anyway & I had no fatalities.

(1) I did a half tank water change 2 days ago. How soon can I add new fish?

(2) While vacuumming the gravel, as you can imagine, tons of particles fog the tank during my cleaning. I felt really bad. Is this bad for this fish? Is it hard for them to breathe?

(3) Is it normal for fish to open and close there mouth inside the tank? I never noticed but am nervous

(4) Can I add Oscars to my cichlid/jjack demsey tank?

I heard that there are transponders present on satellites that act as repeaters & r usd for communication. So if we use man-made satellites for communication, then can we use natural stllites(e.g moon) by putting required systems & instrments on them?

A new report by Standard and Poor's (an extremely reliable source) says illegal immigrants in recent years have contributed the "vast majority" of $7,000,000,000 extra to the fund - money that will never be paid out. This reduces the long term shortfall by almost 10%.

http://www.newsmax.com/archives/ic/2006/4/11/152522.shtml?s=lh (sorry, there's a pop-up ad, but only one)

Why is it that we don't hear more about such studies, but instead just hear the ones that villify immigrants? Perhaps this would interfere with Halliburton's latest billion dollar tax-money contract to build detention centers and a wall?

I've been trying to get work in the props or art dept within the Tv and Film Industry for over 5 years now. I have a fine Art degree and have been a pro photographer, I've gone through all the usuall channels, Offered to volunteer etc... There is always something against me. I'm 31 now and feel extremely frustrated at not getting anywhere... I'm beginning to think it is who you know. I'm trying to branch out with screen writing and have a great Idea for a tv drama - but not too sure how to go about it - like who to approach who to trust etc...
The other problem that is really getting me down is opportunities for ethnic minorities within the industry. I understand the whole positive discrimination thing ; But what happened to talent getting you the job or training scheme -and not origins or skin colour.
My hands are tied with this situation and as a white working class man from a northern town I have to say that the country is failing people like me. Any advise? Suggestions? - Sensible

What have you given up on in your life? Have you regretted doing so? Be it school, a job, a relationship, a dream, hope, love, marriage etc.

I want to be a pharmacist. It's the only thing in my heart that I would really want to do. The school is ALL chemistry to get the Pharm degree. My problem is that while I got an A in chemistry when I was in high school, I'm failing it in college. The biggest issue that's causing me to fail is, and I'm not just blaming it on him, but my teacher. He's a foreigner and doesn't speak / teach in English well, but is a very nice man. Anyway, if I can't get past general chemistry, I might as well forget about being a pharmacist. I just want to give up. I know I shouldn't let anyone get in the way of my dreams and that I should just get a tutor, but I feel so down and just want to give up.

Who else feels the same?

I am 5 weeks pregnant, my HCG level Friday was 225, that does not add up, am I right? I'm sure of the dates of my last cycle. Also the very slight breast tenderness I had is totally gone now and I have no other symptoms of being pregnant. I don't "feel" pregnant,is that a sign?
