I will not trust Scotland Yard probe under Musharraf’s supervision: Sanam
2008-01-29 07:30:00 Former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto’s younger sister Sanam Bhutto has said that she would trust Scotland Yard investigations, but not under the supervision of Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf. Sanam said that she is not interested in knowing the identity of her sister’s murderers, as that will not bring her sister back. The issue to catch Benazir’s killers had become irrelevant for her, but it would be in everyone’s interest if the UN or another independent body investigated the murder, Sanam told Geo News. “I don’t care who killed my sister because that will not bring my sister back,” she added. Sanam regretted that she could not help her sister, adding that Benazir had always been her own boss, had had some extraordinary achievements, and always kept her word. She said Benazir always kept the family united but after her nothing would remain the same. Sanam said that she had been shopping in ...

Young teens and adult supervision
2007-09-13 15:59:00 Busy Boy is finally back at school, he's not totally well, but, seems to be on the mend from bronchitis, or, perhaps pneumonia. He's missed way too much school since the year began (4 days) which isn't good for someone like him in the 6th grade, a huge transition year. Mid-term report card not likely to be pretty. He's also missed way too much football. He'll get to play, but, I'm not sure what it will do to his playing time this weekend, and, I don't know what he's missed in the way of learning new plays, either. It's kind of significant, since they don't have all that many games, and, this year is somewhat formative for the 7th and 8th grade team next year. So sue me, this is the South, football is a big deal. I hope he's well because, much to his dismay, he starts Cotillion this weekend (I said, shut up' this is the South,we do these things, too), and, there's a lot of hand shaking. It'd be all kinds of awkward if the whole group suddenly broke out wit...

Use gout drug under medical supervision
2007-07-16 04:07:00 I REFER to the letter, ‘Is gout drug safe to use’ by Mr Kwek Siew Beng (ST, July 12). Etoricoxib, also known by the trade name, Arcoxia(R), is a prescription medicine used to relieve inflammation and pain caused by certain conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis and gouty arthritis. The product is approved for use in Singapore since 2002 and is available in many places, including Britain, Europe, Australia and New Zealand. Etoricoxib belongs to a group of medicines known as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Following concerns raised in 2004 about cardiovascular adverse effects (for example, heart attack or stroke) of NSAIDs, the safety profile of these drugs was reviewed by the Health Sciences Authority (HSA) and its experts. Based on scientific evidence available, HSA assessed that although this class of medicines carries a small increase in potential risk of cardiovascular adverse effects, the absolute risk remains small when they are used appropriatel...

Keeping Teens Safe with Spending Supervision
2007-05-15 15:06:00 This seems like a harsh topic today compared to my typical light hearted posts but I have received a couple emails from parents who have raised the topic of controlling where their teen is spending the money they give them. Evidently, these parents have experienced situations where their teens take their allowance and use the money to purchase drugs or other harmful and illegal items. What an awful situation for a parent; I can only imagine what it must feel like to have a teenager that has fallen victim to drug use. The question becomes how to stop this from occurring.I believe that teens that have fallen victim to this likely fall into two categories. Teens that are tempted by the drugs and happen to have cash in their pocket to make the purchase and teens that are addicted and it really doesn't matter if they have cash in their pocket or not; they are going to find a way to get the drugs, no matter how much a parent cuts off access to money.For teens that are addicted, I hig...
