Before September 2004, there were no FDA-approved, generic substitutes for Viagra. Pfizer held a monopoly on this particular drug. But currently, there are two competitors, using a different technology. One of these, Cialis, has a 36-hour useful life rather than the few hours that Viagra has. It has already captured 18% of the Vitamin V market." - Kenneth W Thomas, Ron Gilbert, Gerd Schaller, Side Effects: The Hidden Agenda of the Pharmaceutical Drug Cartel (Get the book.)
| "Reduced dopamine concentrations in the prefrontal cortex are thought to contribute to attention deficit disorder and negative schizophrenia
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dopamine).
And while many children are being placed on Prozac?or Paxil? or some other SSRI antidepressant, due to some "totally unscientific evaluation", we find that "Deficits in dopamine levels are implicated as one of several possible causes for attention-deficit disorder (ADD)" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dopamine).

| "INTRODUCTION
According to Wikipedia: "Pollyanna tells the story of Pollyanna Whittier, a young girl who goes to live with her wealthy Aunt Polly after her father's death. Pollyanna's philosophy of life centers around what she calls 'The Glad Game': she always tries to find something to be glad about in every situation." Given the increasing proportion of aged individuals in the United States and other countries, with all of their attendant ills, if there was ever a time when a "Pollyanna" is needed, it is now." - Ann M.

| "Inositol for Sleep
LOOK UP "sleep disorder" on wikipedia and you'll get no fewer than seventeen different entries ranging from bruxism (grinding your teeth) to snoring. (There's even one called sexsomnia. Give up? It means "sleep sex." And no, I did not make that up.) All of the disorders have one thing in common: They interfere with a good night's sleep. And that can spell serious problems indeed.
Many important things happen during sleep." - Jonny Bowden, Ph.D., C.N.S., The Most Effective Natural Cures on Earth: The Surprising, Unbiased Truth about What Treatments Work and Why (Get the book.)
| "IgE, the immunoglobulin that is related to food allergies or sensitivities, triggers mast cells (defined by wikipedia as a resident cell of several types of tissues) to release histamine.
Typically IgE is found in the skin, the lining of the lungs and the intestinal tract. It is not always seen in abundance free floating in the blood and therefore some blood tests may show incorrect readings. The immunoglobulin IgG is present in some delayed food reactions. Delayed food reactions occur after 24 hours.
Histamine produces a range of allergic symptoms." - Heather Caruso, Your Drug-Free Guide to Digestive Health (Get the book.)

| "This criticism of Pottenger's conclusions was found in the wikipedia online encyclopedia: "Pottenger's study was conducted in a time before the nutritional needs of cats were understood ?especially the role of taurine in the diet. Since cats cannot synthesize adequate amounts of taurine, they must get taurine from food. Heat renders taurine inactive; cooked food without taurine supplements can cause health problems in cats."

Candida and Parasites
Parasites and Candida can cause constipation. Parasites block the intestinal tract and bile ducts. Bile acts as a lubricant for stools and binds up cholesterol. Parasites alter our bowel flora and rob our nutrients. Candida is part of our natural bowel flora. When it overgrows it displaces the good bacteria. Our good and bad bacteria should be in perfect balance to be healthy and have normal bowel movements. An imbalanced intestinal flora can weaken the immune system." - Heather Caruso, Your Drug-Free Guide to Digestive Health (Get the book.)

Andy Carvin of the Digital Divide network set up a news aggregator of blogs and sites reporting on the disaster. Groups of bloggers from all over the world set up relief funds and aid channels.

If such an initiative is to be universally accessible, it should be based on free software."

"Most Internet users are familiar with wikipedia, the open-source encyclopedia that allows anyone to edit entries or download content. More than a million entries have been created in the English version of the site, many of high quality. But this didn't happen by chance: the creators put guidelines in place to catch vandals, resolve conflicts, store all versions of the content, and discuss contentious or unclear issues. This combination (discouragement of unproductive behavior and encouragement of productive contribution) lies at the heart of distributed collaboration."

What are the sources of adult stem cells in the body? Are they "leftover" embryonic stem cells, or do they arise in some other way? Why do they remain in an undifferentiated state when all the cells around them have differentiated?

Warfarin is used as a rodenticidefor controlling rats and mice in residential, industrial, and agricultural areas. It is both odorless and tasteless. It is effective when mixed with food bait, because the rodents will return to the bait and continue to feed over a period of days, until a lethal dose is accumulated (considered to be 1 mg/Kg/day over four to five days). It may also be mixed with talc and used as a tracking powder, which accumulates on the animal's skin andfur, and is subsequently consumed during grooming." - Mike Adams, Natural Health Solutions (Get the book.)

Mindfulness is becoming intentionally aware of your thoughts and actions in the present moment in a totally non-judgmental manner.
