wife asking for an advice.
i found this column from a wife seeking advice to a Filipino lawyer.
"I came to the U.S. in 2003 and married my husband who filed a petition for my green card. I lived with my American husband since we got married in 2003 and we were called for interview twice by the immigration officer.
During my first interview, the officer was asking for joint documents like health insurance, bank accounts or properties in our name. We live together and we are married but we have nothing in both our names. In January 2006, the immigration officer said that I will receive a letter in the mail regarding the decision.
In 2006, my husband and I got into a serious argument. I stayed late at night with my friends and when I came home he was very upset. I stayed calm because I know it was my fault. Since he was very angry at me, he choked me and I fell on the floor. He held my hand and twisted it. I fought back and kicked him so he let go off me. I called 911 and when the cops came, he denied any wrongdoing. I was just crying and the cops said that they will arrest me instead if I do not talk. I told them what happened but still my husband denied it. The cops just left that night.
After that night, I left our home and slept in my car for two days until I found a place to live. In May 2007, I discovered that my application for green card was denied. I went to a lawyer here in Cleveland, Ohio and I was told that I will be deported. I am not sure that if he is telling the truth because he used to work with my husband in the same law firm. By the way, my husband is a personal injury lawyer.
I want to know if I am going to be deported now that my green card has been denied. I need help, please.

Medicine Mistake
Common Medicine Mistakes To Avoid
Ten common slipups with cold formulas, pain relievers, and more that could hurt your child's health
If you're like most parents, when your child has a cough, a cold, or some other common illness, you probably reach into your medicine cabinet for an over-the-counter (OTC) remedy. But if you're not careful, you could end up doing more harm than good. Though the majority of parents give OTC medications to their kids, a recent Emory University study found that only 30 percent of caregivers accurately identify and measure out the right dose. Another problem: Many people mistakenly think OTC drugs are harmless because they're available without a prescription. Before you play doctor, read on to avoid common errors parents make.
Mistake #1: Using a kitchen spoon instead of the measuring device that came with the medicine.
If you automatically head for your silverware drawer every time you dole out your child's medicine, you run the risk of giving her either too much, which can be harmful, or too little, which won't be effective. "A teaspoon measures out at five milliliters," explains Parents advisory-board member Mark Widome, M.D., a professor of pediatrics at Pennsylvania State University's College of Medicine, in Hershey. "Flatware teaspoons can hold anywhere from four to nine milliliters."
For drugs that don't come with their own dispensers, your best bet is to buy a medicine spoon designed for children; these look like test tubes with a beaker-style opening and are available at drugstores. For younger children who aren't used to swallowing medicine, buy a dropper. In a pinch, you can use a measuring teaspoon used for cooking, which also holds exactly five milliliters.
Mistake #2: Not following the "Shake before using" label on the bottle.
If the medicine is supposed to be shaken before you use it, there's a good reason, says F. Lane France, M.D., a clinical associate professor of pediatrics at the University of South Florida School of Medicine, in Tampa. "You need to disperse the active ingredients. Otherwise, the first two thirds of the doses will be weaker than they should be and the last third will be very potent, which could be harmful to a child."
Mistake #3: Giving medicine when it's not necessary.
The truth is, most complaints, such as a sore throat, runny nose, or cough, will clear up on their own without the help of OTC drugs -- and often just as quickly. That's because these medicines treat the symptoms, not the underlying illness. Acetaminophen, for instance, will ease your child's fever, making her more comfortable, but it won't cure the viral or bacterial infection that's causing it.
What's more, many OTC medicines, particularly multisymptom cold formulas, can cause unwanted and unnecessary side effects, such as drowsiness. Rather than take a scattershot approach, it's better to treat only the symptom that's bothering your child the most. If he has a sore throat, he really needs only a pain reliever; with a multisymptom formula, however, he's also getting ingredients that he doesn't need, such as antihistamines. There's another reason to check the label carefully before you give a combination formula to your child. "Certain cold medicines contain acetaminophen," says Katherine Grimm, M.D., a clinical associate professor of pediatrics at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine, in New York City. "Parents must not give acetaminophen on top of that, or they could inadvertently give their child an overdose."
Another issue: Keeping lots of unnecessary drugs on hand can be risky. "Even when you've childproofed your home, kids have an uncanny way of getting into things you don't want them to," says Dr. Grimm. "It's better not to have any medicine in the house that's not necessary."
Mistake #4: Choosing the wrong formula.
Infant and children's pain relievers come in different concentrations. If you confuse them, you may overdose or underdose your child. Tylenol infant drops, for instance, are three and a half times as concentrated as the children's formula, which is poured into a cup, says Dr. Widome. So if you use an old dropper from the infant Tylenol to give your baby the children's formula, you'll give her too little medicine. On the other hand, if you use a cup to give your child the infant formula, you'll dispense too much. One or two wrong doses likely won't hurt, Dr. Widome says, "but if you do it chronically, it can result in serious liver problems." Always double-check the label's dosing instructions, which are based on age and weight, before giving medicine to your child. (If an adult remedy is the only one you have, don't use it without your pediatrician's okay -- and ask her how much to give your child.)
Mistake #5: Giving kids aspirin-containing medicines.
Most parents know not to give kids aspirin because of its connection with Reye's syndrome, a disorder that can cause brain and liver damage, and possibly death, in children under 16. But what you may not realize is that aspirinlike compounds, such as salicylates, are also present in other medications, such as Pepto Bismol, says Dr. France. To settle an upset stomach or relieve acidity, it's better to give a young child a flat cola or ginger ale.
Mistake #6: Using an anti-diarrhea drug on babies.
This can work too well, causing constipation. What's more, certain antidiarrhea drugs -- Immodium AD, for example-- can produce serious side effects, such as breathing problems, in a child under 2, cautions Dr. Widome. It's also questionable whether these OTC medications are helpful against gastrointestinal infections. "One of the good things diarrhea does is get toxins through the digestive system promptly," he explains. "If you stop the diarrhea too soon, the toxins stay inside."
Instead, give your baby or toddler plenty of fluids, including an electrolyte solution, for the first 8 to 12 hours of his diarrhea. After that, it helps to cut back on the dairy products in his diet and offer bland foods, such as boiled chicken, rice, potatoes, and toast, choices that the intestines can handle easily. "We can take care of 99 percent of diarrhea this way," says Dr. France.
Mistake #7: Keeping a medicine past its expiration date.
Some drugs expire more quickly than others: Syrup of ipecac should be replaced every two years, for example. And depending on the drug, it could become more or less potent after its expiration date. To be on the safe side, clean out your medicine cabinet every three months and trash anything that has passed its prime. And when in doubt, toss it out.
Mistake #8: Giving a child a decongestant before bedtime.
Certain ingredients in decongestants can make a child irritable or agitated, leaving her unable to sleep. To relieve nasal stuffiness or sinus pain at night or before naptime, have your child use saline nose drops, which thin nasal mucus. The moisture from a cool-mist humidifier or a warm bath or shower will also help her breathe more easily. "These remedies don't involve medicines," Dr. Widome says. "They work physically." That means they won't alter your child's behavior or cause any unwanted side effects.
Mistake #9: Storing medicines in containers other than the ones they came in.
"Medicines should never be transferred to another bottle or container," Dr. Grimm says. "If the bottle isn't labeled properly with both the name of the drug and the dosing instructions, you could easily make a mistake." You may accidentally give your child the wrong medicine or too much or too little of the right one. Saving a little shelf space in your medicine chest isn't worth the risk. Stick with a drug's original packaging.
Mistake #10: Continuing to give your child an OTC drug even though her illness isn't getting better.
Hope may spring eternal, but there's no good reason to keep administering an OTC medicine if it doesn't improve your child's symptoms or comfort level within two or three days. "If your child isn't getting better by then, it's time to get advice from a doctor," suggests Dr. Widome. The same goes if your child's fever is 103�F or higher, if the fever can't be linked to any recognizable symptoms of illness, or if she has profuse vomiting or diarrhea. Even if your child just looks or acts unwell and you're concerned, it's wise to call your doctor. At the very least, you may get reassurance on the phone -- something you just can't buy over the counter.
Why does Sweat Stink?
huh good question huh? Did you know that you have 2 kinds of sweat glands in your armpit? According to David Partiser, M.D "One makes water and the other makes oily substance that produce an odor".
One positive perspiration point:For some reason, most people who suffer from over-productive water sweat glands don't have over-productive oil sweat glands!.
As for stinky feet, Dr. Partiser says there are no odor glands on the foot. "The smell is coming is coming from your feet being covered in socks and shoes, which create a warm, dark, breeding ground for smell-inducting bacteria," he says. For sweeter feet, take your shoes and socks off as much as you can. your feet will be drier and thus less likely to cause odor. Just make sure that you rinse off your feet before you put on shoes.
Walking barefoot, even at home, can cause you to pick up potentially stenchy bacteria that won't do you any favors once cozied up in your shoes.

We had a bad week! we all got sick and I had a wreck! But there's no damage in mycar. what happened was it was so icy that I pumped my breaks way how many feet before I hit the car. it just wouldn't stop because duh... like what I said the roads were icy!! I HATE THIS KIND OF WEATHER!!!!! good thing the guy wasn't in his car when I hit it. he was outside talking to the girl whom where he had an accident earlier... I hit him on his rear bumper but no damage in any of our cars which is good. Luckily there was a cop 4 cars down and she came and looked at our cars and she didn't file any report since there was no damage but we exchange our information in case.

Last week, I had to picked Ethan from school earlier because he got sicked and vomited all over. so I had to picked him up then he was running a high fever. The highest was 104.3 and we were about to take him to the ER since 105 is very dangerous but the medicine we gave him slowed the fever down. but it didn't end up there sinc ehe had to stay at home for the whole week . Shuan also had the illness but went to school last Thursday which was the same day as my car accident! but he stayed home last friday anyway due to cough and cold! OHHH I just wish that there shouldn't be any class during Winter since that's the time when the kids get all sick! and there's lots of accidents happen! i have no idea why do they let the school open on winter anyway . it doesn't matter in other warmer states but for the states like ours?? crappy winters big snows and such.. they should just close on winter!!!!!There's 1 girl here in Lincoln died because of flu! and 4 other kids got hospitalized! When I took Ethan to the doctor last week, there was a lot of kids in the clinic!!!!! I was sick all weekend and it was crappy I don't know if I got a concussion from the accident since my I still have a headache. but there was no dent on my car so my husband think that it didn't hit that hard!

Anyway so we were talking about moving out form here so there will be some slight changes in our bathroom renovations! it will be much simplier than what we planned before since we won't be living here for a long time so why would we pour more money if we don't have to enjoy the stuff right?

5 yrs. later!!!

Early this morning, I turned the TV on to CNN & they are talking about 9/11... after 5 years we never forgotten on how the world felt... Sadness... and.....Anger ... I don't think that there is someone who felt anything other than these feelings aside of course the terrorists!!! it's very weird how can a memory came flashing back to you..... 5 yrs. ago .... I was in San Diego got waken up by my Supra & told me about the attacked! I got up as fast as I could & I couldn't believed what I saw!!! The fall of the Twin Towers people everywhere was crying..... Firefighters mourned while they searched for anyone who needed help... ..Ordinary civilians.. risks their lives rescuing someone.......... it was a mournful day for any Americans... hell, I am not even an American but I was devastated of what I have seen!!!A mournful day for anybody ..
America is where I lived in!!! the place who gave me opportunity , the country where I found loved and made my own family,......and all I can give back is my love for this country!!!
for the heroes of 9/11 ...your always be remembered!!!!!!!

it's a girl

My cousin Kimberly just delivered her first baby on June 24th. I'm so happy for her:) I don't know yet if they already picked a name for her baby. she didn't know what's the gender until she delivered her. That's pretty neat they waited to know the baby's gender.
And also congrats again to my friend Maribel for her little Makayla Isabella :) it's obviously a girls year.!!!!:)
