By on Thursday, May 26th, 2011 | 3 Comments

I didn’t know and put raw eggs on my morning smoothie a few times…. I haven’t done it anymore
I had Halls cough drops at around 8 weeks pregnant but no other medicine
I’ve had tuna a few times and fish ceviche a couple times
and I’ve had deli meat as well….
I haven’t gotten sick from these food… So just wondering if my baby is fine?
goodness so many things to watch out for!
I’m now almost 30 weeks and I seem fine I’ve also had my 20 week scan and they saw no abnormalities …baby is growing fine, and I’ve had my 4D ultrasound and he looks normal

Question by cคяℓу™: what does it mean when a hermit crab “chirps”?

It means the crab feels as if it is in danger. It is a defense ploy.

Best answer:

Answer by imdashti
The name piranha may come from a hybrid language composed of Tupi-Guarani languages; it may be a compound word made of the components ‘pirá’, meaning ‘fish’, and ‘sanha’ or ‘ranha’, meaning ‘tooth’. In Tupi, inalienably possessed nouns take the prefix ‘t-’, ‘s-’, or ‘r-’ depending on the possessor, or zero in combination; thus ‘pirá’+'anha’. Alternatively, it may come from Tupi ‘pirá’ (‘fish’) and ‘ánha’ (devil). It is pronounced (in IPA) /pʰiɻanʲjə/ (or /pʰɻanʲjə/), /pʰiɻaʲɲə/, or /pʰiɻanʲə/).

Lack Of Deep Scientific Study And Consensus About “implants” In So Called Abductees, Mean Anything?

By on Friday, December 31st, 2010 | 1 Comment

Reading numerous articles from different sources, about supposed UFO abductees in different countries. Seeing the realistic results of those tests in which “foreign bodies” have been extracted from people who have had suspicions for the longest time that something’s been placed in their bodies, and even people who clearly heard comments from “beings” telling them these implants were being placed there, what is the general consensus amongst scientists?
Are these people being disregarded as too imaginative or sick?
Since some of these “articles of implant” seemed to have magnetic fields or other, isn’t anyone caring to investigate who might have placed them there?
Also, since many suspect government and/ or military personnel have to do with this, shouldn’t the two biggest questions in everyone’s mind be:
1) Why “search and fish” for these people in the most isolated of places, when they could do this in just about any institution, whether private or governmental without raising anyone’s suspicion.
2) Why “fly” around in weird apparatus and give the impression that the person is taken up into a flying saucer or similar thing?
3) Why tell them these things are being implanted so it may help them in their lives, or help them be monitored, etc.?
4) Are most scientists_who may believe that these events are being perpetrated by other human beings_afraid to be called loonies if others find out about their research on this?
I myself think this is a fascinating issue, and yes, granted that there’s so much misery to be taken care of in the world everywhere, and governments are just handling wagons after wagons of money for people to recuperate from horrible natural disasters, and this alone takes up half the news every day. But, it is also a fact that science does have its funds set aside yearly_even when universities have to fight hard to get them.
In a way that might answer my question: Lack of enough money. But, by now there’s enough evidence around to be studied with the simplest of means.

I Just Dreamed Of Four Goldfishes What Does It Mean?

By on Monday, December 27th, 2010 | 5 Comments

I just got done dreaming of a goldfish i threw in the bathtub full of water when away to get something came back and water was gone and i placed the fish in his tank and he showed sigh of dying then after i headed to my 2nd room in my house and i had a other fish tank with 3 more goldfish and one was dying what does it mean supposly when you dream of fish means someone you know may be pragnet or you could be something like that but i got this off a site “To dream of goldfish, is a prognostic of many successful and pleasant adventures. For a young woman, this dream is indicative of a wealthy union with a pleasing man. If the fish are sick or dead, heavy disappointments will fall upon her.”
& Im a woman so i just want to know any meaning i just hope that isnt true :(

How Could He Be So Mean?

By on Thursday, December 16th, 2010 | 4 Comments

Here’s the story: On my birthday of Monday of last week, I put a Craigslist posting seeing if there were any cute guys that might want to meet up and hopefully make it a long term thing.
There was this one really cute guy, who was 18 (I just turned 19) exchanged some e-mails and pics, then did some chatting on Skype, couple of texts, added each other on Facebook and decided to meet for Friday. But then he cancelled in our Skype chat on Thurs night, b/c he had to take his 2 nieces up to this town.
So he said he felt like an ***, and hopes to go for Sunday instead at a movie theater not too far from him. So it’s Saturday afternoon, and i’m not sure what time we’re suppose to meet so I send a text. Then it’s night time, and still nothing so I send another one asking what time. Sunday morning rolls by, so I said I’ll give him a call (we hadn’t talked before) around 11AM to see if he’s got my messages. He soon responds that he’s been sick for the past 2 days and that’s it. I send 2 txts that day hoping he feels better soon and maybe if we could chat online sometime soon.
Monday comes. Spot him on Facebook online, and ask how’s he doing, if he wants to chat later tonight 9-11, and he says he’ll try. Then I get the last message he ever gives me at 11pm “Hey, I’m pretty much done with this lab report”. I only receive it like 20 min later, and send 3 quick responses saying rats, I missed that, hope to talk again soon.
then it’s tuesday and the bombshell happens. I look on my FB to see how’s he doing but I don’t see him at all in the search box. So I do a full search and I can’t even find his profile. I check someone else’s account and he’s seen there. Which could only mean he blocked me… So, I send a casual text that night pretending nothing happened and asking how his finals were, I’m going home soon, anything new, and nada.
Today, I think I sent my last 2 txts to him asking if he blocked me, and how he could be so mean to do that. And if he doesn’t reply again, then I hope he realizes he hurt someone’s heart real bad.
It’s just hard to get over him, b/c he was so cute. I saw his pics, and he loves to camp, fish, missionary work, and such. He’s been to a Christian high school in Canada, our chats seemed pretty intimate, and then out of the blue he’s just gone :( Plus there was an also ultra-cute video of him singing the chorus part of “Teardrops from My Guitar” after this girl teases him to do it.
How could he reject me like that? I know it may seem like I pester him a lot with messages, but they were mostly stupid simple things like, Do you want to chat on Skype tonight, or So what time should we meet? Like at most, 3 a day. Usually 2 or less.
We both keep our sexuality a secret, but that doesn’t mean it’s polite to reject me without saying something. I kinda expected more honesty because I knew he was Christian and he seemed so nice.
So is there anything I can do, to salvage whatever’s left?

My Betta Is Being Mean To Just One Of My Fish?

By on Wednesday, October 27th, 2010 | 2 Comments

I got her on the 18th of this month, (today is the 26th). Everything has been fine, the aquarium is in my bedroom and I am in there often throughout the day at least an hour or two at a time. I have a male guppy that needs to be put out (which I am gonna do today=( He is somewhat old but mainly his tail is HUGE and is weighing him down. This morning I noticed his tail had slices in it, 1 major tear, tore it in half and a lot of little ones. I figured it was from the water change last night. I was watching the fish and I saw my FEMALE Betta up right attack him. I continued to watch her. A medium sized platie got in her way and she kinda chased it, then a little later, she straight up chased my little platie (dwarf platy/guppy mix and he is 1/2″). She doesn’t mess with my big 2.5″ platies or the Glowlight Tetra’s and most the time she is even in a crowd of platies like it is no big deal.
I got her out of a 10 gallon display aquarium where she was alone with 1 little catfish. She did PERFECT when I introduced her to my aquarium. No flaring, chasing, nipping. I thought I was safe. Why would she now resort to aggression? I do wonder if the crowding is encouraging it.
8 platies (dwarf & regular)
7 Glowlight Tetra’s
2 Oto Cats (pair)
2 Corydoras (pair)
1 Guppy
&
1 Ghost Shrimp
Is she targeting the guppy cause it is noticeably weak? Will it continue or even get worse? I have hiding places and I will continue to check for torn fins. Using a female Betta growth rate scale she was 9 weeks when I got her, I assume she is no older than 3 months.
