A.L.S.
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig's disease, is a progressive, fatal, neurodegenerative diesease caused by the degeneration of motor neurons, the nerve cells in the central nervous system that control voluntary muscle movement. The disorder causes muscle weakness and atrophy throughout the body as both the upper and lower motor neurons to degenerate, ceasing to send messages to muscles. Unable to function, the muscles gradually weaken, develop twitching because of denervation, and eventually atrophy because of that denervation.
The condition slowly gets worse. When the muscles in the chest area stop working, it becomes hard or impossible to breathe on one's own. Breathing or swallowing muscles may be the first muscles to go. ALS does not affect the senses, bladder, bowel function, or a person's ability to think or reason.
Although the life expectancy of an ALS patient averages about two to five years from the time of diagnosis, this disease is variable and many people live with quality for five years and more. More than half of all patients live more than three years after diagnosis. Roughly ten percent only live three to five months after diagnosis.
ALS affects approximately 1 out of every 100,000 people.
The cause of this disease is unknown, and there is no known cure for ALS.
Albert.. I'll be praying for you.

WorstPizzaInAmerica.
Uno Chicago Grill Chicago Classic Deep Dish Individual Pizza
was listed as the...
WORST PIZZA IN AMERICA
(health-wise)
(health-wise)
2,310 calories
165 g fat (54 g saturated)
4,920 mg sodium
120 g carbs
" This individual pizza has been named Worst Pizza in America three years in a row now, but Uno Chicago Grill doesn't seem to care--all they've done to minimize the epic impact of this monstrous meal is to change the nutrition labels on their website to reflect the calories "per serving," instead of the total calories per dish as a whole. What's revealing about that slight of hand is that it shows that Uno knowingly sells an individual pizza that actually has three servings' worth of calories, fat, sodium, and carbs. This one individual pizza has more calories than you should eat in a day and more than two days' worth of sodium. (That's as much salt as you'll find in 27 small bags of Frito Lays Potato Chips!) The only way to go at Uno is to steer away from the infamous deep dish Chicago-style pizzas and opt for a flatbread pie instead. "

Haha. For other pizzas listed as the best and worst, refer to this site. As for me, I don't care what I eat, as long as it's tasting good in my mouth and in the belly. If anything, the pictures made me want to go and order the worst pizzas. I guess that's just me..
