I would like to get into the air force academy. Academically I shouldn’t have any problem. However, I do have asthma. Is this an automatic disqualifier? If the asthma is under control (Not using inhaler) and I don’t really have any symptoms will that make a difference? I am in soccer and am physically fit. Thanks

I’m looking for a permanant electrostatic airfilter (that you simply rinse, not replace) for my furnace. I’m hoping to find one that you don’t have to plug in, don’t have to get professionally installed, and has a prefilter (layer?) and carbon (layer?). I have horrible asthma and allergies.

Atlanta, GA — A prominent ad in todays Atlanta Journal-Constitution sponsored by parents and friends of children injured by mercury in vaccines demands that a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) advisory committee require complete removal of mercury from vaccines. The ads sponsors note that according to Environmental Protection Agency guidelines, a person must weigh over 500 pounds to safely absorb the amount of mercury contained in a single flu vaccine and that special hazardous waste sites are required for flu shot disposal.

To develop national vaccine guidelines, the CDC follows the advice of the 15-member Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) (www.cdc.gov/nip/ACIP/members.htm). To date, ACIP has refused to fulfill promises made by the government, physician organizations, and President Bush to remove thimerosal from all vaccines. Mercury should never have been in vaccines in the first place. The fact that it remains in vaccines seven years after explicit promises were made to take it out amounts to government footdragging that puts children at serious risk of injury, according to Vicky Debold, PhD, public health nurse and mother of a vaccine-injured child.

A growing number of scientists are finding that the type of low-dose mercury in vaccines kills and injures brain and immune cells. Considering that so many children now suffer from learning disabilities and a host of immune-mediated illnesses such as asthma and diabetes, the practice of injecting mercury into our nations most vulnerable is barbaric, said Dr. Debold.

The ad also points out that most flu shots and some other vaccines contain 50,000 parts per billion mercury, despite requirements that landfill waste contain less than 200 parts per billion. Directly injecting humans with a powerful neurotoxin flies in the face of common sense. With growing research from leading universities further confirming the neurotoxic effects of mercury exposure from vaccines, the ACIP must consider the best interests of our children and put an end to this dangerous and unnecessary exposure, commented Dr.. Debold.

I am a 30 year old, single male. I am a smoker, though I know I should quit. I also have asthma. Over the past 3 years, I have developed what I guess is a smokers cough. I notice I cough alot when I wake up in the morning and sometimes hack up alot of yellow flem too. In the past year, I notice I am coughing alot at night now. Sometimes I cough in my sleep, and it drives the girls I date crazy. It wake them up. Some of my girlfirends are really trying to get me to quit. I smoke about a pack a day. What could this be, and is this really a turn off for girls? Do girls like guys who smoke? I have never thought of these things before until now.

I have asthma and am allergic to pollen. In the spring, I am doing PE, which is on the grass. I have severe allergic reactions to the grass, and have caught several colds due to my weakened immune system. Is there any way I can still participate in PE while not getting a reaction? I usually take a Benadryl before PE, but it does not help me much. I considered wearing sunglasses to protect my eyes, but how can I keep pollen from entering my nose and mouth?
