In 1973, 1978 and 1993, universial health care legislation was before Congress.

Each time, we had a Democratic majority Congress,

And each time, the Democrats tabled the universial health care legislation in committee and refused to allow it to be voted on.

My fiance and I have been together for over a year and recently became engaged. Lately, all we've been doing is fighting every other day. I don't know what my problem is. He's really a great guy and hasn't done anything to me. Yesterday, one of our arguments became public. I became so upset that I started slapping him in the street and calling him all kinds of names. He never so much as raised his hand to defend himself from me. He just turned around and walked away.

I am really ashamed about the way I treated him and amazed that he still wants to be with me. But I'm really afraid of my temper and that one day, things might get completely out of control. How can I become a wife, much less a mother, with a temper like this?

I need help (I have no health insurance). I don't want to end up pushing my fiance away. I'm totally distraught about everything. I've been praying about it for a while now but it seems as though nothing's changing.

Can someone please offer some advice???

Yeah, self determination, really wanting to, I know. Truth is I really want to but end up "changing my mind". I've tried patches, they give me hives. The gum burns my tongue. Lazor didn't work for me either. Neither did "cold turkey" I have seen all the photo's, read all the stats, ect. Not enough. I am not against meds, but I don't know anyone who has used them, so I am unsure if that would really work. Please help! All serious suggestions would be appreciated!

What people think of it?
At first I thought it was a bit of a rip off of 28 Days later, but I think it was better done, the character build up and stuff.
The only bad (ish) part I thought was the way the cure was found and the film ended. It wasn't really the climax that I thought it should have been.

What were your thoughts?

Reason being, I like someone but they don't have a job, car, etc. But they are great... personality wise and very respectful.

My cousin says she will never talk to anyone who doesn't have a car. At first, I thought it was her being materialistic but now I'm not so sure.

What are your thoughts on this? Is it wrong not to want to talk to somone because of their financial status?

I was driving down the road and I saw about a 13 year old boy swerving back and forth into the road with his bicycle while he was talking on a cell phone. Why does a 13 year old need a cell phone? What is so important that he needs to talk on it while he's riding his bike?

(Did I mention that I hate cell phones in general??)

My doctor seemed kinda discouraged. He tried to see if he could help my cervix open but he couldn't. He basically told me that the baby would be late. Has anyone just gone into labor without being dilated? Did you water just break? How close to your due date? If anyone could give me some info that would calm me down I'd appreciate it. Any nurses who could shed light on why I'm not dilating at 39 weeks?

So, I'm not going to be home for awhile. If I leave my radiator off, the temperature in my room will probably drop below freezing, and my plants will die. If I leave my radiator all the way on, I'll cook everything. How do I set the radiator to a happy medium? I've tried only opening both valves a little bit, but this made more noise than I'm prepared to deal with. I tried just opening one all the way, and only opening the other a little. I tried the reverse, too. I have no idea what I'm doing. And I can't tell which valve the steam is coming in from and which one it's going out through. Provided it's even steam! Help me.

wow...things have suddenly changed.."scorpio behindyou"..u were wrong i think..coz he has suddenly started avoiding me..i mean like few days back he used to sms me on his own and call me whenever i wanted him too..and he used to giv me cmpany in office..
but suddenly 2 days back 2 of his guy frnds teased us a little about being so "close" frnds..and he just grinned at me and i too smiled blushingly..but then after that i didt show up to him for 2 days..but he didn even bother to call me /sms me..then then yesterday i asked him to meet me (that was quite a casual thing..i used to ask him so even few days back)..but he didnt turn up..and then when i called him he said he was going somewhere(it was true..and he never lies)..and said he'll call me up later..but then i waited and waited..no fon call from him(yet i found out that he had called another girl that same evening twice)..
fine..i realised that he was ignoring me..then today..at lunch i found him eating alone at office..i was with other frnds..and seeing him alone i thought of accompanying him..coz i never like to make any1 feel bad(no matter how they behave with me)..ok..still then i saw him talking to my other frnds more than to me..strange!!but still i managed to talk with him..but still i had this feeling he was avoiding me..and then after he had his lunch..he was about to leave..didnt even bother to stay back to giv me company while i finishd my lunch(earlier he alwaz stayd back till i finishd mine)..then he got up..and i askd him to saty but he said ..his frnds wer waiting and without waiting 4 answer he left
It made me very sad,almost on the verge of crying,so my best frnd asked me to call him and ask him wats up.
i asked him meet me then and there,and he came and i asked him"so what did those guys say to u about me?are they teasing u coz of me?"
he said"ya.u know frnds r like that ,they jus need a cause for teasing,but i dont like to b teased frankly.u know,but they wont understand it.and staying with u for such long hrs are making people think in other terms abou us,but thats not the case u know"
i said "ok.so thats where ur prob is?u dont like 2 b teased and even i dont like 2 be teased,so i had avoided u 4 these 2 days at lunch coz i felt the same ,but u shud have understood that,and i think u were avoiding me coz of all that stuff?if hav prob,then be clear about it and i wont interact with u that much again"
he said"no,i didnt avoid u..did i?"

Similar to my last question, I know, but not exactly :-)

So, assuming your parents did a fine job with you or, good enough, anyway - do you parent the same way that they did? If not, why?

And, did they parent the same way as their parents? If not, why?

I'm thinking that part of the evolution of parenting comes when two parents from different backgrounds & parenting styles come together to start a new family and have to, then, come to an agreement on how to do things as they parent. But, I would think that parenting styles would be discussed pre-marriage and, for some, even be a non-negotiable deal-breaker in deciding to marry. That like would gravitate toward like.
