I am freaking out. I am terrified of std's and getting them. This might sound like a stupid question to some but is there anyway I could get the infection because we share the same bathroom. She has told me before that sometimes she uses my towel but she doesn't tell me this until after I use it again and I am freaking out. Please give me any information you can. If this can be transmitted by sharing the same bathroom or sharing towels. I am extremely nervous. All advice or knowledge is appreciated.

Explain please... I understand they pride themselves on healthy naturality AND low prices, but do you ever wonder if you're getting what you pay for?

If you pay less, are you getting less quality?

How do you know for sure?

Thanks!

Michigan Lawmaker Proposes Teachers Be Allowed To Carry Guns In Classrooms
September 10, 2007 9:46 a.m. EST
Ayinde O. Chase - AHN Staff

Grand Rapids, MI (AHN) - Rep. David Agema, a lawmaker from Michigan is proposing a new bill that would allow teachers to be armed with guns. The rationale for the proposal is that teachers need guns to defend students from attacks by both terrorists and other students.

Agema, a Republican from West Michigan, said he believes the measure would save lives, the UPI report on Monday.

"Right now, the only people who enter school with guns are people who intend to do harm," Agema was quoted as saying by The Grand Rapids (Mich.) Press.

"I believe it will save lives if a kid or somebody comes into a school and starts shooting again."

Apparently he's not alone; the measure has garnered support from 15 other House members. However school officials whose schools the guns would be in are horrified by the suggestion that teachers need to be packing heat in schoolrooms.

I'm just left speechless by this," Grand Rapids Superintendent Bernard Taylor was quoted as saying by the Grand Rapids Press. "It hurts to hear we've come to this, that we're so afraid of children that we think we need to be armed to work with them."

He continued, "If that's what we've come to, I need to find a new line of work."

According to Agema`s bill the legislation would allow teachers, administrators or other school employees to carry concealed weapons on school grounds if they have a state permit to carry one and have permission from their school administrator.

I have just found out I had ovarian cyst. Thought I was pregnant because of the weight gain, irregular periods, weakness and dizziness, but after 2 pregnancy test coming negative I stopped hoping. I am still late now, but I dont want to think that I am pregnant so I dont end up being disappointed. What do you all think?

There are substantial differences between the Heinz baked beans sold in the UK and the nearest equivalent U.S. product (Heinz Premium Vegetarian Beans). The U.S. beans contain brown sugar where the British beans do not. The U.S. product contains a total of 14g of sugar per can compared to 7g for the British version (equating to 140 vs 90 calories per tin).

Almost twice as much! Why?

I'm a teenager and I suddenly dropped twenty pounds over the summer, leaving me at 5 feet 1 and a half inches and 105 pounds. My parents are worried and I have no idea why I lost so much weight. I'm eating regularly and also on two medications Plaquenil and Prednisone. A side effect of Prednisone is weight gain but I'm still losing weight. What's happening?

Really seems possible to me.
I also think that vaccine reaction could be part of the problem, but I don't think it alone would account for the high increase in
