To Shaniya Davis’s mother…you effin animal.

What kind of low life, devil, and pure evil can do such a thing to a child? Sell her to a man who YOU know, is going to rape and abuse her little body? What the fuck were you thinking?

Poor little Shaniya Davis was only 5 years old when her sick mother sold her to Mario Andrette McNeill, who seen entering a hotel with this poor little angel. I can sit here and blame the hotel attendant for not asking questions or even becoming suspicious. But we all know there is one person to blame her- her devil of a mother, Antoinette Nicole Davis.

I hate you Antoinette. I hate you for more reasons than I can possibly write on one page. I can’t even envision what your daughter went through in the final hours of her life because it brings tears to my eyes, why? Well that’s how a REAL MOTHER is supposed to feel. I’m sure every mother was praying for that sweet little girl’s return, every mother, but YOU. You’re not a mother. There is no way in the world you could be that vicious to a child. I never wished any bad on any person, but I wish you get cancer or some type of disease that makes you DIE slow and suffer while it’s killing you. Just like you made your daughter suffer.

I wish when you go to prison, that somebody in the same jail you are going to do your time in, watches the news and notices you and tortures you, like you let that monster did to your daughter. Shit, you make me feeling like flying to N.C and commit a petty crime, so I can see you in prison.

To think of all the women out here who are desperately trying to have children and you turn around and kill yours- just fucking sick.

I also blame the justice system. Wasn’t Mario Andrette McNeill a sex offender? Why the hell was he out in the first place? Oh, I forgot, if you sell drugs, you get more time then when you molest children because someone who has a choice ( i.e. getting high) is committing a worst crime then if someone molest little children. Maybe the government will take a look at cases like this and change the law. Maybe they should be a Shaniya Davis law: first time sex offenders should get life without any parole in the harshest jail and maybe her mother could join them.

R.I.P Shaniya, I’m praying along with a lot of other mothers out for children like you.

Posted by sbm on January 19, 2010

If you are trying to start your own business and need some financial back up, you better get a BUSINESS PLAN together.

Why? You might ask, because NO INVESTORS will even talk to you unless you have a business plan! That’s right. Investors want to know why, what, where, and HOW MUCH. Just think of your business plan as your “directions to enterprise.”

In order for you to even start writing one, you must have a clear understanding of your business customers, strengths and competition. The plan should be a strong communication tool for your business and it will help you define your purpose, your competition, your management and personnel. The process of constructing a business plan can be a strong reality check: I’m I ready for this? Do I have the proper backing? I’m I ready to put all my life savings into this business?
Check out bplans.com and look at all the FREE, that’s right, FREE samples of business plans.

Posted by sbm on

A federal panel of health experts has issued new recommendations encouraging U.S. doctors to screen children aged 6 and older for obesity, and to offer them a referral to intensive weight management programs when necessary.

The recommendations from the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) update those issued in 2005. At that time, the group said there was insufficient evidence to recommend routine obesity screening in children.

However, “since 2005, a series of randomized clinical trials have demonstrated that there is effective therapy, so we felt compelled to change the recommendations,” said the UPSTF panel chair Dr. Ned Calonge, chief medical officer of the Colorado Department of Public Health in Denver.

“This is an encouraging message. There’s hope for successful treatment, and we hope that parents will ask their pediatrician if their child needs intervention,” said Calonge.

He said it’s better to address the problem as early as possible in childhood instead of waiting until your child is grown.

“Once you become an overweight adult, it’s more difficult to change your behavior,” Colange said. “We do believe that childhood behaviors can be changed, and investing in changing these behaviors in kids is an investment that can pay off lifelong.”

The new recommendations will be published in the February issue of Pediatrics, and are available online on Jan. 18 on the Pediatrics Web site. (more…)

title pic Children given wrong drug doses

Posted by sbm on

Hospital doctors make mistakes in more than one in 10 prescriptions they write for children, far more than was previously thought, according to an authoritative study published today.
Errors were made in 13.2% of prescriptions written for children, according to the study covering five London hospitals and carried out by the School of Pharmacy, University of London. Even more mistakes were made by nurses who had to administer drugs, a task often entailing mixing up a solution to be injected. The study found that almost one in five drugs (19.1%) were wrongly administered.
Most of the mistakes were picked up by pharmacists who cross-checked the prescriptions, and most of the errors that did get through led to no long-term harm, though some could have been lethal.
Ian Wong, a professor and one of the authors of the study, reported in Archives of Disease in Childhood, said one child was prescribed a dose of anti-convulsants, for epilepsy, that was 10 times higher than it should have been.
Wong said of the incident: “It was over the weekend so the pharmacist wasn’t around and nobody checked the prescription. On the Monday the pharmacist noticed straight away and stopped the treatment.” Fortunately, the child had received only one dose.
The biggest problem in prescribing is that drugs used in hospitals have never been tested on children. They are not licensed for that use and are not in doses appropriate for children. Doctors are required to make a calculation for the dose based on the weight of each child. (more…)
