Fever

The poor girl has 39.6 degres fever and is very very sick.

We took her to Hamad ER and they perscribed Tamiflu for her and asked her to stay in her room for 6 days.

I am really worried for her as she is very weak and never eats healthy despite all our attemps to convince her to eat fruits and salads...

But I am also super worried and have no idea how to deal with this. I am pregnant (and overweight), which makes me double high risk, and I have a 3 years old DS at home.

I realize she needs care and I will never leave her, but I cannot run the risk of it. I also feel uncomfortable telling her not to touch anything, to wash her hands often and not to cough without a tissue... I don't want her to feel unwelcome in my home now that she is sick, specialy that she is so sensitive.

(Nov. 9) -- Many stars have had to fight persistent rumors about their sexuality. And in that way, Ernie and Bert are no different than John Travolta and Tom Cruise.

I've recounted the stories about the infamous "Ernie and Bert are gay" rumor probably more times than Count Von Count can count. But with "Sesame Street" celebrating its 40th anniversary on Tuesday, I'm going to take it as an opportunity to rehash that same silly rumor one more time.

This is a collection of leave letters and applications written by people in various places of India ...

3. Another gem from CDAC. Leave-letter from an employee who was performing his daughter's wedding:
"as I am marrying my daughter, please grant a week's leave.."

4. From H.A.L. Administration dept:
"As my mother-in-law has expired and I am only one responsible for it, please grant me 10 days leave."

A US woman charged with offering sex for baseball World Series tickets has denied she did anything wrong.
"I'm not embarrassed about my actions. I'm embarrassed about how I was arrested," Susan Finkelstein, from Philadelphia, told AP news agency.
In the ad, the Philadelphia Phillies team fan said: "I'm the creative type! Maybe we can help each other!"
She also described herself as a "gorgeous, tall, buxom blonde diehard Phillies fan".
'Nice lady'
Mrs Finkelstein said she had wanted to get tickets to take her husband to Wednesday night's opening game of the World Series - in which the Phillies beat the New York Yankees 6-1.
