"In the "cosmological" version of the split-beam experiment the observed photons are those that were emitted by a distant star; in one case, by the double quasar known as 0957+516A,B. This distant "quasi-stellar object" appears to be two objects but is in fact one, its double image being due to the deflection of some of its light by an intervening galaxy. The photons of the light beam deflected by the intervening galaxy have been on the way fifty thousand years longer than the photons in the undeflected beam." - Ervin Laszlo, Quantum Shift in the Global Brain: How the New Scientific Reality Can Change Us and Our World (Get the book.)

"The oral bioavailability of the product as well as the angiogenesis-bal-ancing activity were demonstrated in a double blind, placebo-controlled study published in the American Journal of Surgical Research. Another clinical trial involved 305 terminal renal cell carcinoma patients. The stage-3, double-blind, placebo-controlled study showed that patients taking liquid shark cartilage extract lived on average twice as long as patients who did not. USES Used as a dietary supplement and to inhibit tumor growth in people with cancer." - Freedom Press, Natural Cancer Cures: The Definitive Guide to Using Dietary Supplements to Fight and Prevent Cancer (Get the book.)

"In addition to the obvious differences, rats double their birth weight in about five days.7 Comparisons of the protein content of milk and the period for birth-weight-doubling of other mammals show that the faster an animal doubles its birth weight, the higher the protein content of the mother's milk. Horses, for example, double their birth weight in 60 days on mare's milk with a protein content of 2.0 percent. Lambs take 10 days to double their weight on 5.5 percent protein milk, and cats double their weight in 7 days on 9.5 percent protein milk." - Hank Trisler, Fell's Official Know-It-All Guide No Bull Selling: Your Absolute, Quintessential, All You Wanted to Know, Complete Guide (Fell's Official Know-It-All Guides) (Get the book.)

"I was living a double life." Max became convinced that the stress of this double life was wreaking havoc on his system, and he believed the only way out was to end his marriage with Danielle. On Christmas Day, 1968, Max drove to the house he shared with Danielle to tell her he couldn't be married to her anymore. Tormented by the guilt of betraying the one person he really loved, he decided that it was better to push her away in one quick, violent discussion than to continue lying to her. "I expected Danielle to throw a lamp at me and kick me out," he says, "but she didn't." - Rick Foster, Greg Hicks, M.D., Jen Seda, Choosing Brilliant Health: 9 Choices That Redefine What It Takes to Create Lifelong Vitality and Well-Being (Get the book.)

"Indeed when the FDA statistical reviewer independently analyzed all serious cardiovascular events from the study, she found that the risk of cardiovascular complications was more than double in the people who took Vioxx, and that the likelihood that this difference was simply due to chance was 1 in 10,000 (p = .0001). Even for people without a history of cardiovascular problems (the people for whom the NEJM VIGOR article reported no significant increase in the risk of heart attacks) taking Vioxx instead of naproxen almost doubled the risk of developing a serious cardiovascular complication (1." - John Abramson, Overdosed America: The Broken Promise of American Medicine (P.S.) (Get the book.)

"The amount of leafy lettuce and other leafy greens such as spinach and arugula in the salad should amount to at least 5 ounces. double this quantity of leafy greens if you want to jump up to a higher level of excellence. 2. Add other raw vegetables (besides the leafy greens) such as tomatoes, shredded carrots, cabbage, beets, snow peas, or raw broccoli to the salad so the total of raw vegetables for the day amounts to at least 12 ounces of food. 3. Consume a double-portion serving of steamed green vegetables (at least 12 ounces a day)." - Dr. Joel Fuhrman, Eat For Health: Lose Weight, Keep It Off, Look Younger, Live Longer (2 book set) (Get the book.) "I often order a double-sized salad and let them charge me double. Ask the waiter not to bring bread to the table, so you are not tempted to fill up before the meal. Always order the salad dressing on the side so you can use their high-salt dressings sparingly. You can also ask if they have olive oil to use instead of butter on bread or potato or to use (with or without vinegar) instead of the high-salt salad dressing. Helpful Tools Your journey to excellent health will be made much easier if you have all of the tools you need in your kitchen." - Dr. Joel Fuhrman, Eat For Health: Lose Weight, Keep It Off, Look Younger, Live Longer (2 book set) (Get the book.)

"By drinking their mothers' milk and processing it with their four stomachs, calves double their body weight in only forty-seven days and usually live very short lives. It's no wonder that our bodies treat milk like an alien substance. In most people, dairy intolerance and gluten sensitivity cause mild discomfort. The effects on kids with ADD/ADHD are worse and simply not worth it. Their bodies may react to these allergens and stop the absorption of nutrients. These foods can also cause intestinal inflammation and alter mood and behavior." - Jay Gordon, The ADD and ADHD Cure: The Natural Way to Treat Hyperactivity and Refocus Your Child (Get the book.)

"Since then the rate of water withdrawal has been more than double the rate of population growth, and consequently in 1999 the per capita world water reserves decreased to 7,300 m3. If current trends were to continue, in the year 2025 there would be only 4,800 m3 of reserves per person. This amount, combined with the uneven access to the reserves, would create major health hazards in many parts of the world." - Ervin Laszlo, Quantum Shift in the Global Brain: How the New Scientific Reality Can Change Us and Our World (Get the book.) "This distant "quasi-stellar object" appears to be two objects but is in fact one, its double image being due to the deflection of some of its light by an intervening galaxy. The photons of the light beam deflected by the intervening galaxy have been on the way fifty thousand years longer than the photons in the undeflected beam. Yet the photons, originating billions of years ago and arriving with an interval of fifty thousand years between them, interfere with each other similarly to those emitted seconds apart in the same laboratory." - Ervin Laszlo, Quantum Shift in the Global Brain: How the New Scientific Reality Can Change Us and Our World (Get the book.)

"Consider making double batches of family favorites like meat loaf, spaghetti sauce, and soJjps. Look for recipes that call! for mostly "whole foods" and are easy to fix (because then you're more likely to actually try them). Eat in more often. Do the| fast-food thing less often. And when you do need to get food out, go to the chains with more whole foods, like fresh Mexican food (Baja Fresh, Chipotle), fresh sandwiches (with whole wheat buns, real chicken breast and sliced roast beef), and fresh pasta and Italian foods (some restaurants offer whole wheat pasta)." - Elaine Magee, Food Synergy: Unleash Hundreds of Powerful Healing Food Combinations to Fight Disease and Live Well (Get the book.)

"This would double atmospheric levels of the gas, leading to a 10 percent to 25 percent increase in global warming. Changes in the chemical composition of the atmosphere trigger alterations in the climate. Climate change has already reached the danger point. Temperatures in the western Arctic are at a 400-year high, and in September of 2005 satellite pictures testified that the extent of the Arctic ice cap is 20 percent below the long-term average for the month of September. If this trend continues the Arctic Ocean will be completely ice free before the end of the century and perhaps before." - Ervin Laszlo, Quantum Shift in the Global Brain: How the New Scientific Reality Can Change Us and Our World (Get the book.)

"All five publications reported that women with elevated CRP levels had double the (relative) risk of cardiovascular disease, but only the Washington Post mentioned anything about absolute risk, reporting that the increase was "very small." With all the talk about "most promising advance in a long time" and "home runs," readers had few clues that the dramatic-sounding relative risk translated into a minimal absolute risk of about 1 in a 1000. Nonetheless, concern about even this level of risk is not unreasonable. So how much would statin therapy help?" - John Abramson, Overdosed America: The Broken Promise of American Medicine (P.S.)

"Adapted from data in Beyond the 120-Year Diet: How to double Your Vital Years, by Roy Walford, M.D., and www.ars.usda.gov/nutrientdata, accessed 8/29/0?.) "white" and "beige" foods. Eat whole grains and legumes in extreme moderation (no more than 1/2 cup cooked) or not at all. SIDE SHOW Have you ever considered what the term "side dish" means? It's that veggies and grains play second fiddle to the star of the meal, that big hunk of meat or fish of which Americans are so enamored. Now do a mind flip. I want you to start seeing the vegetables as the main dish and animal protein as the side." - Dr. Steven R. Gundry, Dr. Gundry's Diet Evolution: Turn Off the Genes That Are Killing You - And Your Waistline - And Drop the Weight for Good (Get the book.) "So glucose transported in your bloodstream gives your brain a double dose of hormones, telling you to stop eating. How does a plant override an animal's "I'm full" switch? It produces fructose, another form of sugar, which circumvents the activation of both these warning signals. Rather than enter the bloodstream, fructose goes directly to the liver, where among other things it stimulates the formation of triglycerides, the precursor of what we commonly refer to as cholesterol. (Remember this fact about triglycerides; it's a key to success later." - Dr. Steven R.

"The drug companies consistently spend almost double on marketing what they do on research.54 As omnipresent as drug ads on TV have become, expenditures on advertising make up only a very small portion of the marketing budget. Up to 90 percent of the marketing budgets go directly to manipulating the source—directly toward influencing the doctors themselves—in the form of drug samples, lecture fees, and "educational" grants.55 The industry spends an unholy $22 billion a year to market directly to doctors, which is the equivalent of about $25,000 per physician per year." - Charles Barber, Comfortably Numb: How Psychiatry Is Medicating a Nation (Get the book.)

"It's akin to taking a beginning skier to a double black diamond run with the most advanced skiing equipment money can buy, pushing him off the cliff, and telling him to enjoy the ride. This would be a ridiculous way to learn a new skill, and it doesn't work for learning a new way of eating, either. LEARNING NEW HABITS I'm going to teach you new eating habits." - Dr. Steven R.

"Coffee bars: Instead of that latte or cappuccino, order a "double short cappuccino," which is actually an espresso macchiato—an espresso with a dash of foam. You'll also save money; it's cheaper than either a latte or cappuccino and better for you. KILL SUGAR CRAVINGS: SUPPLEMENT YOUR DIET In the first two weeks, three micronutrients-selenium, cinnamon, and chromium-can help you resist the urge to eat sweet things, thereby helping diminish insulin resistance." - Dr. Steven R.

"Beljanski believed that damage to the hydrogen bonds that hold the two strands of the DNA double helix together cause cancer. This led him to seek out substances that could destabilize DNA function and cause cancer cells to multiply, as well as substances capable of repairing or killing (apoptosis) damaged cells. This exploration led him to naturally occurring plant alkaloids, including alsto-nine, flavopereirine, serpentine and sempervirine, which he found to have anticancer properties, such as the ability to distinguish normal from cancer-causing DNA." - Freedom Press, Natural Cancer Cures: The Definitive Guide to Using Dietary Supplements to Fight and Prevent Cancer (Get the book.)

"That we'll binge on bacon double cheeseburgers? More likely that we'll come to the unavoidable conclusion that the emperors of nutrition have no clothes and never listen to them again." - Michael Pollan, In Defense of Food: An Eater's Manifesto (Get the book.)

"Atonement (at-one-ment) consists in no more than the abandonment of that self-generated double monster—the dragon thought to be God (superego)47 and the dragon thought to be Sin (repressed id). But this requires an abandonment of the attachment to ego itself, and that is what is difficult. One must have a faith that the father is merciful, and then a reliance on that mercy. Therewith, the center of belief is transferred outside of the bedeviling god's tight scaly ring, and the dreadful ogres dissolve. It is in this ordeal that the hero may derive hope and assurance the world." - Joseph Campbell, The Hero with a Thousand Faces Joseph Campbell (Get the book.) "The word "Dithyrambos" itself, as an epithet of the killed and resurrected Dionysos, was understood by the Greeks to signify "him of the double door," him who had survived the awesome miracle of the second birth. And we know that the choral songs (dithyrambs) and dark, blood-reeking rites thought he could recognize evidences of this culture-continuity running all the way from Egypt and Sumer out through the Oceanic area to North America. Many scholars have pointed out the close correspondences between the details of the classical Greek and primitive Australian rites o?" - Joseph Campbell, The Hero with a Thousand Faces Joseph Campbell (Get the book.) "Filled with a double charge of the creative energy, they were themselves sources of revelation. Such figures appear on the dawn stage of every legendary past. They are the culture heroes, the city founders. The Chinese chronicles record that when the earth had solidified and the peoples were settling in the riverlands, Fu Hsi, the "Heavenly Emperor" (2953-2838 b.c), governed among them. He taught his tribes how to fish with nets, to hunt and to rear domestic animals, divided the people into clans, and instituted matrimony." - Joseph Campbell, The Hero with a Thousand Faces Joseph Campbell (Get the book.) "There is a charming Hindu tale of a king's daughter who would marry only the man that found and awakened her double, in the Land of the Lotus of the Sun, at the bottom of the sea.145 The initiated Australian, after his marriage, is conducted by his grandfather to a sacred cave and there shown a small slab of wood inscribed with allegorical designs: "This," he is told, "is your body; this and you are the same. Do not take it to another place or you will feel pain." 146 The Manicheans and the Gnostic 1*2 See Frazer's discussion of the external soul, op. cit., pp. 667-691. ?Ibid.,p. 671." - Joseph Campbell, The Hero with a Thousand Faces Joseph Campbell (Get the book.)

"The McMansion might provide solace, except that it is double mortgaged and the home improvements and high-tech accessories are financed by maxed-out home equity lines. Lately, cocooning has taken on a new wrinkle—the creation of and deep immersion in our own customized on-demand "digital environments," which combine the realms of Web surfing, video games, instant messaging, cell phones and their photographic and text messaging capabilities, cable TV, DVDs, and on-demand television and movies." - Charles Barber, Comfortably Numb: How Psychiatry Is Medicating a Nation (Get the book.)

"Thus, when 6 percent of children develop manic symptoms in a clinical trial, as a rough estimate double or triple that number are likely to develop these same symptoms in real-life, everyday clinical practice. THE RISK OF GIVING ANTIDEPRESSANTS TO ESPECIALLY VULNERABLE PATIENTS ALTHOUGH THE NEWER antidepressants very frequently cause mania in people with no history of mania, they are even more likely to do so in people who have a prior history of displaying maniclike symptoms." - Peter Breggin, Medication Madness: A Psychiatrist Exposes the Dangers of Mood-Altering Medications (Get the book.)

"Symptoms of hypoglycemia can include one or more of the following: anxiety, irritability, headache, depression, trembling, excessive sweating, palpitations, confusion, double vision, weakness, bizarre behavior, incoherent speech, and convulsions. The primary goal in hypoglycemia management is to reestablish healthy blood sugar control. One method is through dietary therapy encouraging frequent small meals. In addition, all processed, concentrated simple carbohydrates and alcohol should be avoided. Regular exercise is also important." - Tom Bohager, Everything You Need to Know About Enzymes to Treat Everything from Digestive Problems and Allergies to Migraines and Arthritis (Get the book.)

"The nurse told her to have her husband double the dose but Mrs. Kingman considered it such a bad idea that she did not pass the recommendation on to her husband. Those who knew Craig confirmed Mrs. Kingman's observations that he was becoming erratic and unpredictable in his moods. Craig told family members and his friend and employee Danny that the medication was making him feel funny, moody, or weird. According to Danny, he said, "They're going to have to get me on something else, because this medication isn't cutting it." - Peter Breggin, Medication Madness: A Psychiatrist Exposes the Dangers of Mood-Altering Medications (Get the book.)
