My dog (ladygyrl) had this skin thing going on forever. Well 2 yrs. My cat got sick, and had to be put down, and now ladygyrl has all hair back, is not itchy or showing any signs of allergies.

I know that it used to be a series of shots, but I've heard that they do a scratch test now. What exactly is that?

I have an abundance of information on teen alcohol abuse in the USA, but haven't had any luck finding information about alcohol abuse statistics for countries with a lower drinking age. (I know they are significantly less, but I need numbers!) Any help would be appreciated.

As a person who has worked many years with prison ministry, I know many people who, because they became Christians, gave up drugs, alcohol abuse, and crime. Do you feel they would have been better people if they'd been atheists and continued in that conduct……or are they better because their faith has made them change their ways?
That's sad, Glyn, that you think it's better to be a drug-abusing, stealing, wife-beating atheist than to become a Christian who changes because of his faith. Really sad.
Mooseback, you're wrong when you said faith-based rehabilitation doesn't work. In fact, study after study has shown that faith-fased rehabilitation lowers the recivism rate substantially.

I am writing an article for a magazine about allergy remedy, since this is the season for the sniffling, lol. Any great ideas?

I have to write a paper on either one. I must choose a behavior. I am not sure what to do. I was looking for something dealing with kids. The majority of people are writing about such things as “why do people get addicted to drinking energy drinks” or “how does peer pressure influence alcohol abuse”. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

and someone told me I might have Chlamydia??? What does that have to do with lower back and hip pain?
I dont have any of those symptoms just lower pack pain..

I have diabetes on both sides of my family and recently I've been experiencing a lot of the symptoms, mostly eye problems and migraines. My sugar level was 99, though, which is perfect. What does that mean?
