Paragard
The ParaGard T-380A is an IUD with copper, manufactured and marketed in the United States by Duramed Pharmaceuticals. It is the only copper-containing intrauterine device approved for use in the U.S. (three hormonal uterine devices, Mirena, Skyla and Liletta are also approved). The ParaGard consists of a T-shaped polyethylene frame wound with copper wire, along with two monofilament threads to aid in removal of the IUD. The ParaGard is typically inserted and removed in a gynecologist's office, occasionally with the use of local anesthesia. Most often, patients are advised to take a dose of ibuprofen approximately one hour prior to insertion in order to control pain. The ParaGard is currently approved for 10 years use, however the newest data show it actually remains effective for at least 12 years, and perhaps beyond, after which it should be removed and replaced if desired. The ParaGard can be used as a form of emergency contraception if inserted within three to five days after unprotected intercourse, and it can be inserted 8 weeks after childbirth.

Pure Greed
by: G.B.H.You've got a fast brain,
it's like a bullet train.
You've been branded,
LINE TO BE ADDED !
Your scream's like gasoline,
it burned me to the core.
You used to stand for something,
but not any more.
And when I turned to you,
in my hour of need.
I looked into your eyes,
and saw the pure greed.
Yeah when I turned to you,
on my bended knees.
I looked into your eyes,
and they shone a pure green.
Domino skyscrapers and thunder,
not just another face, just another number.
Domino skyscrapers and thunder,
not just another face, just another number.
You've got a big life,
but I heard that it's broken.
Now I'm gonna' sit and laugh,
