A single mom with a medical condition that gives her up to 300 orgasms a day has finally met the man of her dreams.

Michelle Thompson, who suffers from Persistent Sexual Arousal Syndrome, thought she would never meet the partner of her dreams. She was just too demanding for all her previous lovers, according to News of The World.

She even had to quit her previous job because her medical condition was interfering.

But she has been with her neighbor Andrew Carr, 32, for the past six months and he's as keen for sexual intercourse as she is. They make love 10 times a day, states FoxNews.

Thompson has finally found a good match.

A recent request by the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force has some women and doctors no only confused, but outraged.

A government task force said Monday that most women don't need mammograms in their 40s and should get one every two years starting at 50 -- a stunning reversal and a break with the American Cancer Society's long-standing position. What's more, the panel said breast self-exams do no good, and women shouldn't be taught to do them, Star Tribune.

The American Cancer Society disagrees with the task force's advice on mammograms and will continue to recommend annual mammograms for women age 40 and older, Kare11.

Medical officials are still looking into ways to be able to still proceed with mammograms, but at a smaller price.

A suprisingly large shipment of H1N1 vaccines have arrived this week in Minnesota.

Since Friday, Minnesota has received about 100,000 doses, bringing the state total to more than 800,000 since the vaccine became available this fall, Star Tribune.

As a result of this giant shipment, the cities health departments have been in a bit of a hurry this weekend to organize and prepare flu clinics.

 Most counties will now have enough doses to begin offering very limited public vaccination clinics targeting kids age nine and younger, Minnesota Public Radio.

The locations and times of flu vaccines will begin posting shortly.

The article I selected for my analysis was from the Star Tribune and titled "Metro home sales up, but median price sinks".

In this article the reporter has used numbers to show percentage that pending home sales has increased in the metro area since last October (34.4 percent), as well as the percentage closed sales has increased(27.8 percent).  The reporter also shows that the median sale price though has decreased using amounts in dollar prices from this year to last year.  ($180,000-$169,000).

I feel that the reporter placed both the percentage and amounts in a very clear and precise manor that makes the article not only easy to decipher, but adds the depth to the story. 

Yes, the reporter did have to use math to calculate the percentage increased from this last year to this year in the sales.   They also used math to find the median price of housing, which was smarter than using the mean price because in housing the amount could be affected by a very low price or a very high price to set off the majority average.

The sources for these numbers are attributed to the area Realtors associations.and are cited in the piece but not specifically named.   

A Minneapolis man is being charged with child abuse on Monday after beating his son, burning him with an iron, and turning on the oven after the child had climbed in to hide.

According to the criminal complaint, the 10-year-old boy's father became upset with him because he was in his mother's bedroom.  The boy told police that Hurley punched him, Kare11 reports.

As well as 6 months in jail Calvin C. Collum, 47 of New Ulm, has 15 years of probation and must register as a sex offender.

Police said that classmates told them that Collum and the 16-year-old girl planned to move to Connecticut some day when she turned 19 and have children, having already picked names for the kids. "The suspect would work these names into his class lectures to delight the victim," a criminal complaint filed in March said. according to the Star Tribune.

Collum and the girl also kept in contact over facebook and text mesaging when they weren't in school or meeting outside of class.

21-year-old Joe Cada won the World Series of Poker on Monday in Las Vegas.

Cada dropped out of college and pursued being a poker pro instead. His parents weren't happy about it but he did it anyway. But when he won Tuesday, his mom was "dumbfounded." according to the Daily Inquirer.

Cada has become the youngest to ever become a champion in the World Series of Poker.

Cada became fascinated with poker at an early age. He had older friends who played. He left community college after a few semesters to pursue it as a profession. Too young as a teen to play at U.S. casinos, where the minimum age is 21, he played online, traveled to Canada to play at 19 and made enough money to enter tournaments in the Bahamas and Costa Rica. He was successful before this, earning enough to buy a house, according to USA Today.

At such a young age, Cada has quite the career ahead of him.
