No credit cards will be accepted.Faith said a common misconception that patients can contact the flu from the flu shot is not correct."They can't get the flu from the flu vaccine," Faith said."It's not a live vaccine.

The report submitted Friday by the Arizona School District Redistricting Commission would affect more than 330,000 Arizona students. Twenty-seven districts would replace the existing 76 elementary and high-school districts, eliminating 49 districts of the state's 227. .
Hip-Hop Rumors: Remy Ma's Girlfriend? Pap Assault Vid?!...
From what I understand, he's part of an up-and-coming production company named Medinah Ent. What I have also been blessed with is that Tasleema, another Medinah act wrote the song for the sexy, sexy, sexy (you have to hear the song to get it) Janet. He has also done work for Wynter Gordon, who is an artist on Atlantic Records and also "Mama I Want To Sing," which is a new movie with Ciara, Patti LaBelle, and Lynn Whitfield. Now, there is no beef or anything, because D'Mile is actively and currently working with Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins. So, it's all good!
OH YEAH. There has been some supposed report from CNN saying that Janet's song is the biggest and most popular downloaded leak record ever...um…I have been conferring with people and nobody can seem to produce a link to this report.
Gadgets dumped in landfills unleash toxins
With few rules in place, environmental advocates worry that unscrupulous companies are exporting potentially hazardous waste to developing nations where environmental regulations are comparatively lax.
Most Long Island municipal waste managers said they set up e-waste programs to ensure that the products were disposed of in ways that did not harm the environment. "Until a national approach is crafted, this material is coming in, so we need to do the right thing," said Russ Barnett, environmental protection director for the town of Smithtown.
Electronics recycling is booming. Trace Feinstein, president of E-Scrap Destruction in Islandia, got into the field after customers of his document-shredding business kept asking about it. "Most people really don't know what to do with these things," he said.

CVS/pharmacy Becomes an AARP 'Featured Employer'
For Dale Vernon, age 65, CVS/pharmacy store manager in Cleveland, Ohio, it is the training programs, camaraderie, and strength of the industry that he most appreciates about the company. He joined the company in 1996 at age 56, after the appliance company he worked for went out of business. "The youngest two of my six children were still in college, so I was looking for a secure industry to work in and the opportunity for advancement," he said. Vernon rose from assistant manager to manager within six months, and considers the ongoing classroom and on-the-job training at CVS/pharmacy to be invaluable. "CVS/pharmacy places a high value on training managers so that they are up to speed on all the latest initiatives in customer service, merchandising and pharmacy operations -- including helping to educate customers about the new Medicare Part D," Vernon said.
'Tis the Season for Giving
They say it's better to give than to receive, but there are some gifts that let you do both. Giving to charity doesn't always mean just writing a check. Nowadays, many nonprofit organizations offer creative ways of investing your donation in sustainable change. The following gift ideas will help feed, educate and empower those in need, and help protect the world we live in. You'd be amazed how far your money can go, and best of all, there's usually something in it for you too. Help an Entrepreneur With a Kiva Loan Kiva.org is a groundbreaking Web site that allows one to lend money directly to aspiring entrepreneurs in developing countries. The initiative drew the attention of former President Bill Clinton, who included Kiva in his latest book, "Giving: How Each of Us Can Change the World."
Lenders choose a recipient from thousands of small-business owners looking for loans, and Kiva forwards the loans through a network of microfinance companies in developing countries.
