What is the correlation between diabetes and obesity?It has been obsereved that Diabetes occurs in people suffering from obesity.There should be some correlation between the two.This may be due to some physioloic,genetic,immunologic or some other factor.As a student of biotechnology,i wanted to know the precise relation between them and the mechanism by which they affect each other.I would also be thankful if some good websites for exploration of this topic are suggested.

Answer by tweetymayyy62
this is probably due to several factors: overweight people tend to eat unbalanced diets-too many carbs, etc.Many overweight people lead sedentary lives.Some may be glucose intolerant.

Answer by lamiaoccisor
Well obesity is and diabetes the relation is simple but you can check it out on www.webmd.com .But you obesity causes an imbalance in sugar intake, normal people have a faster metabolic rate than some obese people.Other people get it because there obesity is cause by excessive eating those are mainly the ones that get diabetes.Check the statistics kids get it cause they over eat, simple too much food, too much for the pancreas to take in and it damages its balance.stop eating so much fatsosI feel the reason obese people are at a higher risk for diabetes mellitus, there are a couple forms of diabetes, not diabetes insipidus, is because an obese person takes in more than they can handle in terms of sugar.The pancreas cannot be constantly pumping out insulin without being taxed in some way, resulting in diabetes.That's why balance in diet is good and overeating, caused by a lot of reasons, is dangerous.

Answer by dr_abeer76
first of all,diabetes is 2 types:
1-insulin dependent :this is due loss of insulin secretion from pancreas,this type is started at young age or at birth,patient with this type is always thin & treated with insulin injection,being thin is due to lack of insulin in the body.

2-non-insulin dependant:this is due to loss of the insulin receptors on the cell,so there is insulin but not functioning.this type is started at adulthood,patient with this type is always obese &treated by oral hypoglycemic agents.the reason of being obese is that insulin is anabolic hormone,so being available in the body leads to excessive kilograms.

Know better?Leave your own answer in the comments!Eddie Mitchell from www.lowcarbdiabetic.co.uk is warning people with diabetes to beware of a very popular UK-based forum for diabetics at http because the moderators there are routinely banning anyone who speak positively of the health benefits of low-carb diets.Eddie along with a prestigious low-carb diabetes physician and researcher from Canada named Dr.Jay Wortman www.drjaywortman.com have both recently been labeled as "trolls" on this forum for speaking the truth about how high-fat, moderate protein, low-carb living can help control the ill effects of diabetes.Listen to this exclusive interview conducted by Jimmy Moore from http

Are you allowed to use power splitters on airplanes?We are flying Lufthansa Business and it is a transatlantic flight.Are you allowed to use a power splitter to be able to connect more devices to your chair outlet?

Answer by The Great Brandini
I don't see why not.

Answer by Neil
Yes, and no.Some airlines explicitly forbid the practice, but even on those probably no one will notice or care.BUT...There's usually a pretty serious limitation on the amount of power that can be drawn from each outlet, and the limit is about equal to one large laptop with a low battery.Use more, and the power goes off.Maybe it comes back on in a few minutes, maybe it doesn't come back on for the duration of the flight.Even within the same airline's fleet, it can be different on different planes.Answer by ZaccodeKnow better?Leave your own answer in the comments!

The emaciated Shih Tzu has pemphigus vulgaris? Reviewed 4 days later

The emaciated  Shih Tzu has pemphigus vulgaris? Reviewed 4 days later Thursday, Sep 1, 2011

"My dog looks forward to coming to your Surgery," the daughter said to me."She used to be afraid of going to the vet." I was surprised to see this 10-year-old Shih Tzu so much more energetic and wagging his tail, as if she wanted to enjoy every second of living.

4 days of medication and better food like meat and eggs and she looked so full of energy.I had scheduled the operation at 10 am but since the owners had problems getting a taxi on the road side, the dog's body felt very hot.I had to postpone the surgery to next Monday as it is not wise to operate a dog that is hyper-excited.This is an old dog with poor nutrition as Vet 1 had advised to feed only vegetables and rice as the dog suffered from skin diseases, including big ulcerations in both ears and below the pads of all paws.The owner said that the original skin problem started with the ears.Vet 1 had diagnosed an auto-immune skin condition called pemphigus* and so advised vegetables and rice only.

"We had been waiting for the taxi for one hour and under the sun," the daughter said."Next time, I will book a taxi."

This could be a case of pemphigus vulgaris and pemphigus foliaceus.The owners complained that the dog had blisters or ulcers in the ears first (I took some pictures - usually pemphigus foliaceus).Then the mouth got ulcers (pemphigus vulgaris involves the mouth-skin junctions but not pemphigus foliaceus).Now the dog also has "ulcers" in both ears, ulcers in the mouth-skin junctions and all the pads of the 4 limbs.

The prednisolone injection given did suppress the auto-immune system.The submandibular lymph nodes are now not spreading caudally like a long cord involving the other lymph nodes, as at 4 days ago.The swelling is now localised at the submandibular lymph nodes which are around 3 cm x 3 cm x 2 cm - very large.

I took a blood test and would review the case 3 days later again.Biopsies for histopathology would need to be specially prepared to get good lab results and these may be costly.

In conclusion, this could be a case of pemphigus and long-term immunosuppressive treatment and regular monitoring would be the treatment.Over-treatment will kill the dog and so there must be a long-term care and blood test for this dog.

In pemphigus foliaceus, diagnosis is based on history,clinical signs, histopathology and immunopathology.Therapy must be immunosuppressive to be effective and is palliative rather than curative.

Vilazodone

Vilazodone Why is this medication prescribed?
Vilazodone is used to treat depression.Vilazodone is in a cla*s of medications called selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and is also a 5HT1A receptor partial agonist.It works by increasing the amount of serotonin, a natural substance in the brain that helps maintain mental balance.
How should this medication be used?
Vilazodone comes as a tablet to take by mouth.It is usually taken with food once a day.Take vilazodone at around the same time every day.Follow the directions on your prescription label carefully, and ask your doctor or pharmacist to explain any part you do not understand.Take vilazodone exactly as directed.Do not take more or less of it or take it more often than prescribed by your doctor.
Your doctor will probably start you on a low dose of vilazodone and gradually increase your dose, not more than once every 7 days.
Vilazodone controls depression but does not cure it.It may take several weeks before you feel the full benefit of vilazodone.Continue to take vilazodone even if you feel well.Do not stop taking vilazodone without talking to your doctor.Your doctor will probably decrease your dose gradually.If you suddenly stop taking vilazodone, you may experience withdrawal symptoms such as dizziness; nausea; headache; confusion; irritability; agitation; difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep; anxiety; extreme tiredness; seizures; pain, burning, or tingling in the hands or feet; or sweating.Tell your doctor if you experience any of these symptoms while you are decreasing your dose of vilazodone or soon after you stop taking vilazodone.
Are there other uses for this medicine?
This medication may be prescribed for other uses; ask your doctor or pharmacist for more information.

Full Body Stretching Exercises for Cheerleading

Full Body Stretching Exercises for Cheerleading

Cheerleading has evolved into an elite activity full of athletic components.As a cheerleader today, you must cheer, dance, jump, tumble and perform stunts.Before every practice and performance, you should complete a thorough warmup to loosen up your muscles and lessen your chance of injury.Do dynamic stretching, a form of stretching that uses movement, and prepare your body for action.Unless otherwise noted, do eight repetitions of the dynamic stretching motions.
Cardiovascular Warmup
Start your warmup with cardio to get blood flowing to your muscles.Alternate sets of 25 jumping jacks with 10 of each of the following exercises.In the jump and roll, jump up and then lower yourself to the ground to roll up onto your shoulder blades before rolling back up and returning to your feet.Killer pushups are done by jumping into the air, bending down to place your hands on the ground, thrusting your feet out into a pushup position, and pulling your feet back in to return to standing.Start jumping lunges with your feet together, spring up and land in a lunge with your left foot forward.Spring immediately back up switching your legs in the air to land with your right foot forward.Finally, do sumo squats by starting with your feet together, stepping out to the side and landing in a deep squat with both legs, pushing back up to center, immediately stepping out to the other side, and returning to center.Repeat this series of exercises until five to 10 minutes have pa*sed.
Neck and Torso
Perform these motions to warm up your neck through your core.Nod your head up and down, being careful not to tip your head back too far.Turn your head side-to-side, looking over your right shoulder and then your left.Lower your right ear to your right shoulder and then repeat on the other side.Place your hands on the sides of your thighs and do side bends back and forth, reaching for the side of your knee or lower.Pull your fists up underneath your chin, keeping your lower body stationery, twist side-to-side.With your hands on your hips, circle your hips as if you were using a hula hoop.Circle eight times in one direction before switching directions.
Arms
Move on to movements that will warmup your arms and shoulders.With your hands dangling at your sides, roll your shoulders up toward your ears and then back eight times before switching and rolling forward.Swing your arms in front of your body, crossing the left arm over the right, behind you attempting to touch your arms together, in front crossing the right arm over the left, and again behind you getting them as close together as possible.Circle your arms widely, first backward for eight times and then forward eight times.
Legs
Stand near a wall, placing one hand on it for balance.Make sure to do both sides of these exercises prior to moving on to the next movement in the series.Transfer your weight to one leg, swinging your other leg forward and back.Keep the swinging leg straight and attempt to get the leg higher with each kick.Lift your knee to the front, lightly tapping your foot on the ground in between knee lifts.Keep your torso straight and lift your knee higher each time.Pointing your knee down to the ground, kick your heel up to hit your rear end, again tapping your foot on the ground in between repetitions.Finally, rise up on the balls of your feet and then rock back onto your heels, lifting your toes off the ground.

Daily Update: August 28, 2011

Daily Update: August 28, 2011

Today is the Twenty-Second Sunday in Ordinary Time; on this date we honorВ Saint Augustine, Bishop and Doctor (diedВ 430).

Born in 354 in Tagaste, Numidia, North Africa (Souk-Ahras, Algeria) as Aurelius Augustinus, today’s SaintВ was the son of a pagan father.Raised as a Christian by his mother, Saint Monica, he lost his faith in youth and led a wild life, living with a Carthaginian woman from the age of 15 through 30, and fatheringВ a son whom he named Adeotadus, which means «gift of God».He taught rhetoric at Carthage and in Milan, Italy.After investigating and experimenting with several philosophies, he became a Manichaean for several years; it taught of a great struggle between good and evil, and featured a ratherВ lax moral code.Augustine finally broke with the Manichaeans and was converted by the prayers of his mother and the help of Saint Ambrose of Milan, who baptized him.On the death of his mother he returned to Africa, sold his property, gave the proceeds to the poor, and founded a monastery.Becoming a priest and preacher, he was namedВ Bishop of Hippo in 396.He founded religious communities, fought Manichaeism, Donatism, Pelagianism and other heresies, and oversaw his church and his see during the fall of the Roman Empire to the Vandals.Augustine was one of the most prolific Latin authors in terms of surviving works, and the list of his works consists of more than a hundred separate titles.Augustine is probably best known for his Confessiones (Confessions), which is a personal account of his earlier life, and for De civitate dei (Of the City of God, consisting of 22 books), which he wrote to restore the confidence of his fellow Christians, which was badly shaken by the sack of Rome by the Visigoths in 410.In the 11th century the order of Augustinian Monks came into being, claiming lineage from the religious communities founded by Saint Augustine.Augustine was canonized by popular acclaim, and later recognized as a Doctor of the Church in 1298 by Pope Boniface VIII.He is the Patron Saint of brewers, printers, theologians, sore eyes, and a number of cities and dioceses, including the city and diocese of St.Augustine, Florida.

When we got up for work, Michelle was again asleep on the couch.We went to work, and I spent the day as the dealer on Pai-Gow Poker.Tropical Storm Jose formed east of Bermuda at 7:00 am, On my breaks I marked the July 2011 photos, organized the December 2010 photos, and started marking the December 2010 photos.At 10:00 am Hurricane Irene became Tropical Storm Irene.(All day on CNN the only news was Hurricane Irene hitting the East Coast; we in the break room kept asking, what would they have done if Irene had been more than a minimal Category One storm?(At one point Irene had been a Category Three storm, which is four times as bad, roughly, than a Category One storm.)

On our way home from work we stopped at Super 1 Foods for some groceries; once home, I ate my lunch salad and read the Sunday papers.I then took a nap from 1:30 pm to about 6:00 pm, which meant that I did not go to the 6:00 pm Ma*s.I ate my dinner (red beans & rice, and cornbread) and got busy on tonight’s Daily Update.After I am done with today’s Daily Update, I will go watch the first half of the New Orleans Saints versus the Oakland Raiders in their third pre-season game, then I will go to bed.The New Moon will arrive tonight at 10:04 pm.

In the Tropics Tropical Storm Irene is 65 miles south of Rutland, Vermont (which is very far from the Tropics), with maximum sustained winds of 50 miles per hour, and moving to the north north-east at 26 miles per hour.The expectation is that the storm will become a post-tropical cyclone later tonight.Tropical Storm Jose is now 80 miles southwest of Bermuda, with maximum sustained winds of 45 miles per hour, and moving to the north at 17 miles per hour.The storm is expected to make a turn to the north north-east, to start moving faster, and to weaken.An elongated area of low pressure a*sociated with the remnants of Tropical Depression Ten is producing disorganized weather about 700 miles west north-west of the Cape Verde Islands; the system has a 10 percent chance of developing into a Tropical Cyclone within the next 48 hours.Finally, a system about 400 miles south of the Cape Verde Islands is becoming better organized, and has a 70 percent chance of developing into a Tropical Cyclone within the next 48 hours.

Tomorrow being Monday, I will spend my breaks at work marking photos.(There are a lot of December 2010 photos, due to the wedding.) Richard will be fasting to have his blood drawn after work for lab work, with his appointment at the Clinic to go over the lab work on September 9.Once home from work I will do the Weekly Computer Maintenance and do some Advance Daily Update Drafts.

On this Twenty-Second Sunday in Ordinary TimeВ our Parting Quote comes to us from Paul MacCready, American aeronautical engineer.BornВ Paul B.MacCready, Jr.in 1925 in New Haven, Connecticut, to aВ medical family,В he was an inventor from an early age and won a national contest building a model flying machine at the age of 15.After graduating from high school in 1943 heВ received his BS in physics from Yale University in 1947, a MS in physics from Caltech in 1948, and a PhD in aeronautics from Caltech in 1952.In the meantime, he trained as a US Navy pilot at the end of World War II.Some ofВ his work as a graduate student involved cloud seeding, and in 1951 MacCready founded his first company, Meteorology Research Inc, to do atmospheric research.He had started flying glidersВ after World War II and was a three-time winner (1948, 1949, 1953) of the Richard C.du Pont Memorial Trophy, awarded annually to the U.S.National Open Cla*s Soaring Champion.In 1956 he became the first American pilot to become the World Soaring Champion.He devised the MacCready Theory on the correct speed to fly a glider depending on conditions and based on the glider’s rate of sink at different air-speeds.Glider pilots still use the MacCready speed ringВ to maximize the average cross-country speed by optimizing the airspeed in both rising and sinking air.He was the founder (in 1971) and Chairman of AeroVironment Inc., a public company (AVAV) that develops unmanned surveillance aircraft and advance power systems.В With Dr.Peter B.S.Lissaman he created the first practical human-powered aircraft, the Gossamer Condor, and thereby won the Kremer prize in 1977; the seven-and-a-half-minute flight covered a figure-eight course a half-mile long in Shafter, California.The award-winning plane was built out of aluminium tubing, plastic foam, piano wire, bicycle parts, and mylar foil for covering.In 1979, he built its successor, the Gossamer Albatross, which won the second Kremer prize for successfully flying from England to France;В it weighed 70 pounds and had a 96-foot wingspan, and took three hours to make the crossing over the English Channel.He later created solar powered aircraft such as the Gossamer Penguin and the Solar Challenger.He was involved in the development of NASA’s solar-powered flying wings such as the Helios, which surpa*sed the SR-71в

Aerobic Features of Aerobic Fitness Workouts

Aerobic Features of Aerobic Fitness Workouts

The American College of Medicine defines physical fitness as your ability to perform physical activities like resistance and aerobic training to improve your health, your physical skills and your body's cellular processes to keep you alive.Resistance and aerobic training specifically target your muscles, bones, joints, heart, lungs and blood vessels to improve fitness.
Training for Health Fitness
Engaging in progressive, regular resistance training or weight training prevents the loss of your muscle tissue as you age, while also building more muscle tissue.When you lose muscle, you lose your strength and your ability to carry out everyday activities with ease.Resistance training also stimulates your bone cells to build more bone, preventing bone fractures, especially at your joints.Broken bones will definitely hamper your ability to move around and get things done.Aerobic exercise like brisk walking, running or biking helps to keep your heart healthy because it has to open wider and close harder to quickly pump blood to your working muscles.
Training for Skills Fitness
Sports like basketball are very skill-specific activities.In order for you to optimize your skills in basketball, you need to be able to constantly run back and forth and jump for 1 to 2 hours.If your muscles and heart are weak and untrained, you will not be able to perform the skills properly because you are trying to catch your breath and because you cannot jump high enough.Side-to-side running drills, sprints, push-ups, pull-ups and exercises with barbells and dumbbells improve your ability to jump high, quickly stop and turn and block your opponent.
Training for Physiologic Fitness
Resistance and aerobic exercise improve the function of the organs in your body to reduce your risks of diseases like diabetes.When you do push-ups or walk fast, your muscles act like pumps to help nutrients enter your cells, hence your cells do not need as much insulin (a hormone released by your pancreas) circulating in your blood compared to being sedentary.The common phrase in the health and fitness industry is "Exercise has an insulin-like effect." Exercise helps to decrease your risk of diabetes and helps to control diabetes by making it easier for carbohydrates to enter your cells, decreasing the amount of insulin your pancreas has to make.
Misconceptions
You might think you have to walk fast for an hour to derive fitness benefits, so you choose not to do anything.Improving fitness is relative to your current abilities.If you can only walk for 5 minutes, it's okay.Go ahead and walk for 5 minutes today.Tomorrow, walk for 6 minutes.If you add 1 minute every time you walk, before you know it, you will be walking for 30 minutes.Perhaps you can only do two push-ups on your knees.Fine, do two push-ups.After 3 days, do push-ups again but make it a goal to do just one more.If you do 30 minutes of resistance training twice a week and 30 minutes of aerobic exercise three times a week, then you will be well on your way to improving all aspects of physical fitness.
Warnings
If you have diabetes, you must get permission from your doctor because exercise could cause you to go into a dangerously low blood sugar status.If you have a history of strokes, you should refrain from holding your breath during any exercise activity, especially resistance training, and you should check with your doctor before starting any exercise routine.

4 Effective Workout Plans for Sciatic Pain

4 Effective Workout Plans for Sciatic Pain
When a bulging disc presses on the sciatic nerve that runs from the lower back down the leg, the pain can be intense and frustrating.Certain exercises can help to relieveВ В pain and prevent it from recurring.Check with your doctor before beginning anyВ 
Aerobic Exercise
Engaging in regular aerobic exercise is one of the best things you can do to relieve chronic sciatic nerve pain.When you exercise, your brain releases endorphins, which act as a natural painkiller.Low-impact exercises are the best option if you have sciatica, as they do not put additional strain on your legs and lower back.Water aerobics, stationary bicycles and elliptical machines are safe exercise options for most people who suffer from sciatic nerve pain.
Strength Training
Strengthening your back and abdominal muscles can help to relieve lower back pain and tone your muscles to better support your spine--which decreases your risk of recurring bouts of sciatic nerve pain.You can strengthen your lower back muscles by lying on your stomach with your hands clasped behind you and resting on your lower back.Slowly raise your head and chest off the floor and hold the position for several seconds before easing back down.Raise one arm and the opposite leg off the floor while lying on your stomach with your legs straight out behind you to help tone your back muscles.
Tone your abdominal muscles by lying on your back with your knees bent.Flatten your back against the floor and curl up to lift your head and shoulders off the floor.Rest your hands on your stomach or chest.Do not clasp your hands behind your head and pull yourself up, as this can lead to neck injury.You can work your lower abs by tightening your pelvic muscles and raising one leg eight to 12 inches off the floor while keeping your back flat and your other knee bent with your foot on the floor.
Flexibility Exercises
Flexibility exercises promote a healthy range of motion and can help to keep your spine aligned, reducing pain.Lie on the floor on your stomach with your legs straight out behind you and slowly lift up so that your forearms are flat on the floor, shoulder-width apart.Pull your chest and head up so that you can look straight ahead to relieve pressure on your lower back.As you gain flexibility, you can push up so that your hands are flat on the floor with your arms extended while keeping your pelvis and legs flat against the floor.Standing straight up and placing your hands on your hips while gently leaning back so that your chest and stomach push forward while your spine dips is another good way to promote flexibility in your lower back.
Yoga and Tai Chi
Yoga and tai chi are low-impact exercise options that promote proper posture and flexibility.Both yoga and tai chi also focus on spiritual and mental balance, which can help you to relax and allow your body to heal.Use slow, gentle movements when practicing yoga or tai chi poses to avoid overexerting your back and increasing your risk of injury.

Okay everyone-- read and answer please! Question about morality and the law~?

Okay everyone-- read and answer please! Question about morality and the law~?
negligence law
by blacque_jacques

I asked a previous question to this but people wanted more info.Here's the article-- http://www.wtov9.com/news/14047414/detail.html#

Now this woman who left a 2 year old child in her car for eight hours (and the kid died) is not going to get any type of punishment."Union Township police released security camera video on Tuesday that showed that Nesselroad-Slaby returned to the SUV five times during the day, and once moved the SUV to another location in the parking lot." So first, this woman had ample time to notice.Second, she has done this multiple times before-- it wasn't a one-time thing.

She's not getting prosecuted, not even for negligence, child endangerment, or negligent death.I understand she's a mother and losing her child is horrible and she's suffered...but that baby suffered a lot more than she has.

So what do you think about this?Should the law care more about it?Should she get prosecuted?Why or why not?And lastly, please state what religion you are.
And I forgot to mention that this is not the first time-- but the third-- that this woman had admitted to leaving her child in the heat alone.Also, she moved the car taht day and went to the car five times that day...so is this negligence or something else?Should this be investigated more?

MyMichelle
I think it's ridiculous that she is getting away with murdering her baby, there is no excuse for leaving your child in a car.I can't believe they aren't pressing any charges against her, it really is a sad world we live in.


I believe that you should be a good person and treat people fairly, I don't believe in Jesus, but I do believe in a higher power I just don't think he's pulling any strings.

legleggerz
well i cant really judge her, because i dont know what went through her head that day.maybe she knew that the baby was there maybe but its not for us to judge.its for the Lord to judge and him only.Im a christian, but when ur at Gods presence it doesnt matter wat religion u are.

Speaking in terms of the law, she is at least guilty of Criminal Negligence, Child Endangerment, or Child Neglect. Perhaps even manslaughter. The law should be kept seperate from religion.

She should be prosecuted. Obviously, there was insufficient evidence to prosecute or a quilty verdict could not be accomplished in court.

In the eyes of the law, however, yes, she was guilty.

I am a believer and follower of the Lord Jesus Christ and the One True God.

curls
This is ridiculous, yes she should be prosecuted.Many before her have been prosecuted for the same thing, because it is neglect and abuse to leave a child in a hot car for hours.All she needed was to use common sense.I am atheist.

Prosecuting someone has less to do with the law or morality than your question implies. Would this mother be sent to jail? Most likely no. The charge would successfully be plea bargained down to no time served, so it would just be a waste of tax payer money.

They would NEVER get her for murder, and manslaughter would be difficult.

The law and morality are not the same.

KC
I am an atheist and I think she should definitely be punished. No good mother would leave a child in a car for eight hours. She deserves to be tried for negligent homicide at the very least. No doubt she feels very guilty but leaving a child alone for that amount of time is pure stupidity.

tremonster
I'm in agreement with most of the answers here. I don't understand how someone can "forget" their child. Granted, I'm probably not a candidate for 'mother of the year', but even I know where my child is at all times and I am constantly aware of her presence. This is not a simple matter of neglect, it is murder. Maybe involuntary, but murder all the same. The maximum penalty should be sought in this case. Either a life or death sentence should be applied to anyone who kills their child with intent or carelessness.MamaBear I disagree with that decision.While accidents can be hard to avoid, this was no accident.This child died as a result of criminal neglect.Should the law care?YES!!!

The purpose of law is to guide an otherwise ignorant society into order (and away from disorder); to teach responsibility and punish the irresponsible; to set standards of behaviour and enforce those standards; to provide for and protect an ordered society, so people can live in it.

This woman violated the most basic standard of her job as a mother: she abdicated from caring for her child, and her child died as a result.Her donuts were more important to her than the life of another human being!The Law, having already established a standard of "neglect of a minor" and levels of criminal neglect, needs to act in this case, or it forfeits its power in society.Why make laws that are not going to be enforced?

We also need to be cautious about the precedents we set in this case.If one woman can ignore her child to death, and call it an "accident", why can't another "accidently" poison her son's dinner, by confusing rat poison for boxed Domino sugar (since the woman with the SUV claimed to have been distracted....)?Why can't a father give his daughter a "much needed spanking", and "accidently" beat her to death?How many things can be written off as "accidents", to avoid prosecution?

I believe this woman should face justice of some type, for her actions (and lack therof) resulted in the ending of a human life.That life was explicitly in HER CARE.At the very least, she should be tried for manslaughter and child neglect.After all, if this is how she cares for someone she is responsible for, how will she act to the rest of society?When she is driving her car, doing her job, etc.?There is no maternal tie between her and the rest of the world, that she should care so much as to be careful...

To fail to provide justice for the most dependent of our citizens is to deny it to us all."If you are faithful with a very little, you will be faithful with much," Jesus said.The reverse is also true.

Christian.

thats pathetic that someone would do that to their child without even thinking it was wrong, for people like this the punishent should be that they are not allowed t have children or before they do they have to attend some type of cla*s.

iPhone 5 Expected To Support Both GSM And CDMA Networks

iPhone 5 Expected To Support Both GSM And CDMA Networks

The highly anticipated new Apple iPhone 5 is almost certainly expected to support both GSM And CDMA from a single phone according to new evidence.The dual-mode iPhone 5 has been rumoured before but now evidence has been discovered in the iPhones app usage log files.An undisclosed iOS developer has contacted and presented information and log files to the Tech Crunch website, supporting the dual-mode iPhone theory.The logs show data from a new Apple device, using the MNC/MCC codes from both Verizon and AT&T networks.Tech Crunch explains:
«The logs show that the app has been briefly tested by a handful of people using what is almost certainly an iPhone 5, evidently running iOS 5, sporting two distinct sets of mobile network codes (MNC) / mobile country codes (MCC).Those codes can be used to uniquely identify mobile carriers.»

However its also thought that the logs could be from an Apple test unit that has been released into the wild to test the networks.Hopefully within the next couple of months Apple will clear up all the rumours and launch their new update iPhone.

IBM Hard At Work On Building 120 Petabyte Data Drive
For a proper sense of proportion, the resulting storage space is enough to fit two dozen billion mp3 files.It’s ample proof that IBM isn’t done in yet, to think before World War 2 the same company sold mere office peripherals and coffee grinders.Not kidding, but Thomas Watson eventually became embara*sed by the latter and dropped them.If he didn’t, maybe fast food chains today might have IBM made coffee grinders.As proof that data storage on an incomprehensible scale is still good business, a small army of researchersmore like a team of researchers to be honest, but that’s what the press sayare dedicated to the project.The 200,000 conventional disk drives are being a*sembled over at Almaden, California where IBM has a bustling lab for such endeavors.
