Please let me know if anyone knows of a Ladies Road bike or Hybrid bike for sale. Undamaged and well-maintained. Or a good source for a used one - haven't had any luck on Craig's List or at the bike shops. Thanks.

Is anyone going to walk/ run this 5K? What about the Nov 7 run at The Concourse for The Cancer Community???

Are there any yoga studios in Paulding County???

Hi, Thanks for your contribution to this topic. I sympathize with your husband, and can recommend good doctors who FIX a problem, rather than masking it. They diagnose, not treat symptommatically. The first are neurosurgeons: Dr Murray Robinson and Dr Paul Hartzfeld (St Joseph's) who specialize in back surgeries. The other is a cracker jack neurologist Dr Carl Billion (Rome). In 7 years I saw two pages of doctors until the last one wanted to send me to a pain clinic. After a procedure I am off all meds. Just giving you something to consider and some hope.

I'm passing along this article from today's NYT. Although there is money to be made in drugs - both street and prescription - the growing volume of this problem is mind boggling. This is just like the housing fiasco - soon we'll all be paying dearly for it. It would be more constructive for society if users availed themselves of less destructive ways to relieve pain, deal with their problems, or get thrills. Law enforcement members, DFCS workers, and others who must look at these faces are brave souls. Sorry about the rant, but I have seen those faces too, and it's a painful sight.

There are good doctors in Villa Rica and a new clinic near Rose's Store. If you need medical records from a doctor's office, contact MAG (Medical Association of GA)and they should be able to tell you how to obtain them.

If you're not into an apartment already, I may know of a responsible woman willing to accept a houseshare. PM me if interested.

Someone asked me these questions and I don't know the answers, never having worked in Human Resources. The first: When listing former jobs, does a person list ALL jobs or only those during the past ten years??? Especially if there is no way to add a resume. Next: If there was an involuntary departure, is that listed or omitted, will it show up on the employment history of a background report? It's strange that human resource people do not agree on those answers.

FreeBird, I know you have a smile on your face. Congratulations!

I have to agree that this is a sad situation for everyone involved, and poor target for jest. Earlier this year I attended a meeting to hear a lobbyist discuss some environmental issues (yawn). It was so amazing to hear him discuss this situation in front of the group, naming names. "You don't impress me much"... as the song goes.

I don't think the monorail should be discussed here. Don't forget, the tunnels were the reason many people chose Paulding County over Decatur, East Cobb, and Dunwoody. We are so progressive!

The doors were locked and it wasn't completely set up at 7:15. No responses about going back later please, there are many ways to take away our right to vote. The radio advertises voting from 7AM to 7PM.

Drs. Jansen and Himot are excellent.

Thank you lowrider and Living and loving it. 1985

Happy Birthday from someone who can't find her number.

Pubby's right. The days of print news are gone, as are the days of traditional reporting. People wanting to hold the news in their hands forget that world events affect us all, and faster. Instead of reading one editorial, we can obtain slants on the news from The Electronic Intifada to The New York Times. Those people wanting social media have Facebook and Twitter options. I also want to say that I give Pubby a lot of credit not only for having his own voice but also for guiding the evolution of this website.

CRR's post said it all in a nutshell. Fabulous Docent tours are also available to groups at the High, on request. 45 minutes in length.

A little late for this weekend, but another time. The LeFont Theater in Sandy Springs has some great foreign films (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, The Girl Who Played with Fire, etc. ), and there are many good vegetarian restaurants within a mile of the theater. Just a change of pace.

Thanks for posting these. The High Museum of Art has a temporary exhibit of black and white photos, similar time frame and subject matter.

I have a different understanding of Todd Pownall's comments about being a steward of our neighborhoods. I think that it reflects the belief that we have a part in everything that happens. That means taking responsibility for our lives and our community. It's no secret that our homes and schools reflect the values and pride of our community. Seeing the greater good is not socialism. It is a statement of significance, i.e. to what greater good does your work contribute. His list of civic involvement displays that he has tried to build a life and community that he wants. He has not settled,

I've been seeing comments about the microcurrent face and body sculpting machines everywhere. Does anyone have an at-home model? Do they work?

The last discussion of this end-of-life topic is locked, so I am recording this for anyone interested in taking advantage of the opportunity to learn about neurological issues. The May/June 2010 issue of Neurology Now, a magazine for people interested in neurology topics, carried an editorial "Confronting Brain Death" and an article "Making Sense of Brain Death" that speaks to the determination of brain death. It also carried the article "When Should People With Dementia Stop Driving?", another popular and misinformed topic. To sign up on line for this publication, visit www.neurology

Thank you so much for the help, A Friendly Geek!

You are probably aware by now that the sender is extremely reputable. Although this may seem puzzling, they may be trying to capture information from the general population in this particular random sample. Almost half of children today live in settings that do not include biological parents. Grandparents, foster parents, and others may have that information. There may be other reasons for that particular type of sampling method, but that might be one of them.
