My sister has been staying with us due to an illness. She too takes Ambien CR. No less than 30 min after taking the medication she is belligerent, child like and will stare at me when I am talking to her. She has a look of " lights are on nobodies home." I have found her stabbing at cans with large kitchen knives. Same with scissors. The fact that she didn't get a serious injury is a miracle. She staggers through the house often bruising herself, takes things which are not hers, and claims many things to be hers which are not. All this during the middle of the night. Will be talking with her Dr. in the am. This med is horrible!!

A really sad thing, but, as it was already mentioned here, i don't think it has to do with music, emo culture and all that's related to it... no "mama, we're all gonna die" lyrics would ever get anyone to do that... the cause must be deeper... and listening to such music, writing this kind of stuff is indeed just a manifestation of some inner problems, just a way to get relief and express one's feelings. Commiting a suicide is a way too serious thing as to be done just because of a song...

i think these two girls may have been ralistic and nice girls, i dont say the music is the blame, even though all typs of music may change how you feel, but id very much doubt it made these two young ladies commit suicide, the media takes one too many steps and over exagerates things. i just think that these girls ha something either happen too them and it just got to hard to handle or something like that. but id doubt its the musics fault... if it was im pretty sure i, as well as many other teenagers may have been in this situation to right?????

There’s actually zero evidence that speed itself is the cause of most accidents… and ’speeding’ is not a legitimate construct, because it means going faster than a number that is arbitrarily set. It’s generally other factors that cause the accidents, which when combined with high speeds end up deadly. These factors are inattention, dangerous maneuvers, tailgating, and drunkenness. The government in the mean time will keep making up lies to justify the ticketing of motorists.

Speeding isn’t ‘cool’, it’s just trying to get to your destination on time. I agree that street racing is generally quite stupid, but what needs to be the issue is making RECKLESS DRIVING socially unacceptable, not speeding responsibly.

I've done 88 in a 55 mph zone, straight road, few people around, most doing 15 over already. I didn't endanger anyone. Yet if I were to do the speed limit in heavy rain, I'd be crazy. This whole 'speeding' thing makes people pay too much attention to dumb numbers instead of common sense. Instead of 'checking their speed' when there's a cop around, people should be paying more attention. The whole 'speed kills' campaign probably kills more people than it saves.

I'm very disapointed to here that the author J.K. Rolland has bee intreviewed and she said that Dumbeldor was a homoseksual. I don't see the need for this comment especially if this is not written in an explicit way, thank g-d. It is not necessary to destroy a nice book like Harry Potter with such rubbish. There is enough of it on the market. This book should have been left with it's pure beauty for all to read. I hope there will not be any more such comments to destroy the value of her writting.
