  • My wifes Headaches, Leave her Dizzy & Blackout?

    My was in a car accident back in 2007. A woman rear-ended her. It didn't initially appear to be a bad accident, it was one week before our wedding, but in the years since then my wife experiences severe neck and back pain and she has headaches which are very painful and cause her to feel dizzy and nearly blackout. I will describe them in details now and ask my question.

    First, she experiences them exclusively on the left side of her head. She describes it has having CONSTANT painful pressure with an occasional moment when she will get dizzy and feel light headed.. She says that she sees total blackness when this occurs.

    Recently it as been getting more frequent.

    She has seen two neurologists who have performed MRIs. They say there is no tumor, and because we just had our first child, she is nursing and she wont take medication.

    Are there resources that might help us to find out what she is experiencing and diagnose her?

    Does anyone have this experience? Its frustrating watching her suffer. Thank you.

  • Legality of Mobile Phone Contests That Television Shows Offer.?

    Dear Lawyers..

    When television shows such as 1 vs. 100 offer viewers with mobile devices opportunities to win $10,000 Dollars for "Guessing" which of the five people (shadowed and unseeable) is "Holding the Cash" and mobile phone users can vote up to ten times. Doesn't this fall into lottery laws of the states? And aren't there limits to the profitability of lottery schemes?

    The concept lacks any conceivable strategy, is based solely on chance.

    at .99 cents each vote, for a maximum potential of 10 votes at $9.9. If you have 3 million viewers and 10% vote at least twice, thats 1.98 x 300,000 = 594,000 dollars of revenue the phone company makes then splits with the television show either in profit share or advertising commission..

    I F'ing hate the oligopoly of mobile phone companies.. and I'd like to challange the greedy pricks praying on the ever growing pool of ignorant fools spending their money on this.

    Any thoughts on the possibility of challenging this?

  • Is God Good?

    Is God good because he "is good" or because he chooses to be good in a realm where "Good & Evil" exist?

    And if so, thus he must choose to be good. Therefore did good exist before God in order for him to Choose it? If so, what else came before God?

  • Job Discrimination, Manic Depressive Person?

    We bring several hundred people a year to foreign lands for jobs and culture exchange. Today, a guy calls up and says that one of the teachers in our program is manic depressive and lied on an application form. That he's collecting money from the government and taking medication.

    So upon further quetioning of this individual, I find out that this teacher was engaged to his daughter, lived with them for a time, and that this guy has a personal vendetta against the teacher.

    So my question is: 1) What to do in a situation like this, the teacher was required to complete a medical evaluation and passed with flying colors from his doctor. Is there a legal basis for not hiring a Manic Depressive who is on medication? Seems like discrimination to me!

    This teacher passed several interviews, is highly educated and seems of good moral fiber.

    What should I do about this guy who is trying to make trouble, he even contacted the consulate of the country where this guy is.

  • What Happened to Creativity and Originality?

    Is it just me or is the state of originality and creativity in the United States seriously lacking? To much focus is being placed on remaking of old movies, music.. When was the last time a new Christmas Classic was created?

    I don't listen to the radio anymore, its all advertising and commercial hip-pop..

    The last refreshing song I heard was from Maroon-5 and the last couple of movies about magic, "The Prestige, and The Illusionist" were really well done..

    I'm a pretty open guy and enjoy almost everything from opera to Opra.. So tell me, am I turning into my father? I think it would be interesting to do a generational study in perceptions of music and art, has this been done already?
