There’s some disturbing news out today about a disease we don’t hear about much these days: gonorrhea. Federal health officials announced that the sexually transmitted infection is getting dangerously close to being untreatable.
As a result, the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention issued new guidelines for how doctors should treat gonorrhea. The guidelines are designed to keep one of the remaining effective antibiotics useful for as long as possible by restricting the use of the other drug that works against the disease.
“We are sounding the alarm,” said Gail Bolan, who heads the CDC’s division of STD prevention.
Gonorrhea has been plaguing humanity for centuries. But ever since penicillin came along a dose of antibiotics would usually take care of the disease.

Likewise, it’s important to respect those who choose not to classify. It’s all good, whatever you choose to do. Yeah~

It’s clear from the many letters I get that lots of folks have no idea what a healthy relationship even looks like. Because I care about these things, and care about the environments…
this is the power and control wheel for teens but it aptly applies to women in college as well. if your partner does just one thing on the wheel you should seriously reconsider your relationship. you can’t change him and it’s not your fault. guys, if you realize one of your boys is doing this to his girl, sit down and talk to him. tell him it’s not cool.
1.Do not expect anyone to be responsible for your happiness. Ask yourself why you aren’t happy. Too often, relationships fail because someone is unhappy and blames the partner. Your life is solely under your control, with your relationship you have to take the good with the bad. You need to…
