"On a more serious note, it SIGN OF THE TIMES Our ear patterns, like our fingerprints, are unique. Almost a century before fingerprints were usedjohann Caspar Lavater (1741-1801), a Swiss theologian and physiognomist, classified and identified people by their outer ear patterns. Since then, ear-ology or otomorphology (the study of the shape of the outer ear) has been used periodically by forensic scientists to identify criminals. "Ear prints" are also still occasionally—albeit unsuccessfully—introduced as evidence in U.S. courts." - Joan Liebmann-Smith, Ph.

"Each of the featured fingerprints and harbingers is backed with a credible reference from scientific journals or news reports. Fingerprints include heat waves, ocean warming and rising sea levels, melting glaciers, and changes in the Arctic and Antarctic. Harbingers include such phenomena as reports of early nesting (reported in twenty out of sixty-five bird species studied in England), coral-reef bleaching, and the massive drought that struck the Korean Peninsula in 2001." - Alex Steffen, Worldchanging: A User's Guide for the 21st Century (Get the book.)

"The technical selling point is that the bristles of the face brush are designed to traverse facial dermatoglyphics (the scientific study of fingerprints—which for some marketing reason is being used to sound impressive for this product—just to be clear, wrinkles are not related to fingerprints in any way), pores, and scars. The sonic motion of the brush also aids in dislodging facial debris, much like the sonic surgical-instrument cleansers that are used to clean liposuction cannulas and reusable injection needles. But again, upon closer examination, the study itself is far less convincing." - Paula Begoun and Bryan Barron, Don't Go to the Cosmetics Counter Without Me, 7th Edition (Get the book.)

"We know all about the individuality of fingerprints, how even identical twins do not have identical fingerprints. Blood types also are unique to individuals, as are dental patterns and DNA. Surgeons are not surprised when they try to find the appendix and it is not where it is supposed to be. Sometimes the heart is on the right side. Most organs of the body are not exactly where they are supposed to be, nor are they the same size and shape." - Abram Hoffer, PhD, MD, FRCP(C) and Dr. Jonathan Prousjy, DPHE, DSC, ND, FRSH, Naturopathic Nutrition: A Guide to Nutrient-rich Food & Nutritional Supplements for Optimum Health (Get the book.)

"They are turning to quantum physics for explanations, and they are detecting its fingerprints almost everywhere they look. What they are finding may change the face of quantum physics, because, as Mark Buchanan wrote, although it may seem as though information arises from quantum particles, the reality may be exactly the opposite: "Quantum particles might be catching their behaviour from the information they contain." - Peter h. Fraser and Harry Massey, Decoding the Human Body-Field: The New Science of Information as Medicine (Get the book.)

"We have different genes, different fingerprints and different microflora. There is no one dominant probiotic species in a healthy vagina. The dominant species of bacteria in one woman's vagina may be different than the next. However, we do know that Lactobacilli are common in all healthy vaginas, and they have a protective effect against the colonization and overgrowth of bad microbes. Some studies have tried to identify which species are commonly found in healthy vaginal microflora. Both Bifidobacteria and Lactobacilli species are present. Four species—Bifidobacterium bifi-dum, B. breve, B." - Allison Tannis, Probiotic Rescue: How You can use Probiotics to Fight Cholesterol, Cancer, Superbugs, Digestive Complaints and More (Get the book.) "Like fingerprints, each human's intestinal microflora has a unique makeup. A probiotic containing many types of probiotics will more closely resemble your normal microflora. This is likely the best way to take a probiotic. For optimal health you need both families (Lactobacilli and Bifidobacteria) of probiotics in your diet. Both have health effects for your entire body. Do you need a simple guideline to help you decide which probiotic supplement is best for you? Simply remember where species like to live. Lactobacilli are predominantly found in the small intestine." - Allison Tannis, Probiotic Rescue: How You can use Probiotics to Fight Cholesterol, Cancer, Superbugs, Digestive Complaints and More (Get the book.)

"Like a detective, the WMAP team compared the unique "fingerprints" of patterns imprinted on this ancient light with fingerprints predicted by various cosmic theories and found a match.' In consequence, the age of the universe can now be tied down, with an uncertainty of only 1 per cent, to 13.7 billion years (almost exactly three times the age of the earth). And new figures have emerged for the proportions, within the universe, of different forms of mass-energy. Ordinary matter and energy now appear to account for a mere 4 per cent of the whole, which puts us in our place!" - Michael Lockwood, The Labyrinth of Time: Introducing the Universe (Get the book.)

"I was struck by the way in which their hitherto disparate lines of enquiry16 had converged so convincingly on what appeared to be the astronomical and geological fingerprints of a lost civilization, one that might or might not have originated in the Nile Valley but that seemed to have had a presence here as far back as the eleventh millennium bc. • The way of the jackal Anuhis, guardian of the secrets, god of the funerary chamber, jackal-headed opener of the ways of the dead, guide and companion of Osiris . . ." - Graham Hancock, Fingerprints of the Gods (Get the book.) "A detailed interconnectedness exists between these two categories of tradition, both of which additionally bear what appear to be the recognizable fingerprints of a conscious design. Quite naturally, therefore, one is prompted to discover whether there might not be an important connection between precession of the equinoxes and global catastrophes." - Graham Hancock, Fingerprints of the Gods (Get the book.)

"I no longer see my hand; I see cream-colored, canyon-like walls of varying undulations surrounding and towering above me, which some part of me knows as my fingerprints or palm prints! As for me, "I" seem to be a dot of aware perception floating through all of this—joyous, aware, and full of awe. I'm wondering how this could be, when suddenly my vision pops back to normal proportions and I see again that I am standing, hands outstretched, in front of the administration building. Still consciously aware, I think about what to do next." - Robert Waggoner, Lucid Dreaming: Gateway to the Inner Self (Get the book.)

"It's fair to say that their fingerprints, or those of their colleagues, are somewhere inside the workings of your computer, your DVD player, your video-game consoles, or any number of dozens of other consumer and medical electronic devices. They are the brains behind many of the crown jewels of American ingenuity and entrepreneurship." - Mark Schapiro, Exposed: The Toxic Chemistry of Everyday Products and What's at Stake for American Power (Get the book.)

"For example, even though identical twins have the exact same genetic information, they have different fingerprints. With the thrifty genotype, there is an even higher degree of "phe-notypic plasticity." What this term signifies is the relative expression of the genotype. If the genotype is always expressed no matter what the environmental or dietary factors are, then it would have little pheno-typic plasticity. On the other hand, if the expression of the genotype is greatly influenced by environmental or dietary factors, then it would have a very high degree of phenotypic plasticity." - Michael T. Murray and Michael R. Lyon, Hunger Free Forever: The New Science of Appetite Control (Get the book.)

"Once again, the fingerprints of Clarence Cook Little, the former chief of the American Cancer Society, who became director of the Tobacco Industry Research Council, are evident. Little came up with a policy modeled on a well-known axiom that continually resurfaces in the war on cancer: If you can't beat them, join them. He promised that if research did prove a direct relationship between cancer and smoking, "The next job tackled will be to determine how to eliminate the danger from tobacco."4 Little was not alone in this view." - Devra Davis, The Secret History of the War on Cancer (Get the book.)

"His Signals/Her Signals Our Smells Bring Us Together Our individual scents are as distinctive as fingerprints or genes, and they actually help our bodies communicate with each other. Six-day-old infants have been shown to prefer the smell of their mothers' breasts to those of other nursing mothers. Men and women's bodies emit odors called pheromones that are so subtle, we can't consciously detect them, but they have a powerful effect." - Tonya Reiman, The Power of Body Language: How to Succeed in Every Business and Social Encounter (Get the book.)

"This shouldn't have been a complete surprise—for fifty years, some researchers have pointed out that the same genes don't always produce the same results: identical twins (who share identical DNA) don't get the same diseases or fingerprints, just similar ones. Second, the Duke study snuggled right up to the ghost of Lamarck. Environmental factors in the life of the mother were shown to affect the inheritance of traits in her offspring. These factors didn't change the DNA the baby mice inherited, but in changing the way the DNA was expressed, they changed heredity." - Dr. Sharon Moalem, Survival of the Sickest: A Medical Maverick Discovers Why We Need Disease (Get the book.)

"Genetic blood research has proven that blood, like our fingerprints, is uniquely individual, implying that it cannot be transferred to another person without risking complications. Each person's blood contains a multiplicity of antibodies, antigens, and infectious agents, most of which science has yet to identify. This makes transfusions even more risky because the majority of infectious agents contained in blood have not even been identified and can therefore not be targeted with drugs. But even if a blood-borne infection is diagnosed, it is a little too late." - Andreas Moritz, Timeless Secrets of Health & Rejuvenation: Unleash The Natural Healing Power That Lies Dormant Within You (Get the book.)

"This is despite the fact that old, as well as new scientific discoveries, ranging from fingerprints to DNA and from human thought to the creation of ideas, increasingly point to the uniqueness of the individual. And despite the fact that we know more than we ever have before about the sensitivities of different people to different substances, medicine unbendingly refuses to admit the importance of divining and analysing the biological differences between people." - Martin J. Walker, HRT Licensed to Kill and Maim: The Unheard Voices of Women Damaged by Hormone Replacement Therapy (Get the book.)

"They are discovering that their economic fate is tied, through the complex connections of the agricultural commodities market, to the efforts of those French farmers to remove Monsanto's fingerprints from their soil, and from the sentiments of European consumers who don't want them in their supermarkets. Who's Not Coming to Dinner When widespread cultivation of GMOs was still a dream in a laboratory, then vice president Dan Quayle declared the federal government's position about these new organisms that contained genes never before seen in a plant." - Mark Schapiro, Exposed: The Toxic Chemistry of Everyday Products and What's at Stake for American Power (Get the book.)

"Can three, or four, or six such maps, however, be dismissed with equal justification? Is it safe, or reasonable, for example, for us to continue to ignore the historical implications of some of the maps made by the sixteenth-century's most famous cartographer: Gerard Kremer, otherwise known as Mercator? Best remembered for the Mercator projection, still used on most world maps today, this enigmatic individual (who paid an unexplained visit to the Great Pyramid of Egypt in 156310) was reportedly 'indefatigable in searching out . . ." - Graham Hancock, Fingerprints of the Gods (Get the book.) "If so, the faces of the heroes of that ancestral culture may indeed have been carved in stone and passed down as heirlooms through thousands of years, sometimes in full view, sometimes buried, until they were dug up for the last time by archaeologists in our era and given labels like 'Olmec Head' and 'Uncle Sam'. The faces of those heroes also appear at Monte Alban, where they seem to tell a sad story. Monte Alban: the downfall of masterful men A site thought to be about 3000 years old,32 Monte Alban stands on a vast artifically flattened hilltop overlooking Oaxaca." - Graham Hancock, Fingerprints of the Gods (Get the book.)

"Each of these crises had Peron's fingerprints all over it, for they were the products of the old justicialismo: too much spending, too much debt, too much currency, and too much meddling. Debts mounted up even higher. Banks tottered. Inflation rose to 600 percent and then to over 5,000 percent. It finally settled around 4,000 percent. Between 1991 and 2001, budget deficits rose to 13 percent of GDP. External debt-to-GDP ratio rose from 33 to 55 percent." - William Bonner, Lila Rajiva, Mobs, Messiahs, and Markets: Surviving the Public Spectacle in Finance and Politics (Agora Series) (Get the book.)

"Remember, science is not better than nature. • fingerprints are believed to be infallible and an accurate way of identifying a person; however, you have been misled. The truth is that the top fingerprint experts in the world in independent testing are wrong over 50 percent of the time! • Experts promoted Coca-Cola as a "health drink" designed to make a person's health better. This was done when Coca-Cola contained the drug from the coca leaf itself! • In the 1920s medical experts promoted cigarette smoking as a health benefiting practice." - Kevin Trudeau, Natural Cures They Don't Want You to Know About (Get the book.)

"Each individual has his or her own emotional, psychological, and physical blueprint, as unique and special as fingerprints. No two people respond exactly the same way to anything—not to life, not to medicine, not to food, not to diet. In interviewing dozens of people who have been low-carbing successfully for years, I was struck by the number of people who have done their own versions of programs discussed in this book or who have come up with their own solutions, spins, and variations to make low-carbing work for them." - Jonny Bowden, M.A., C.N.S., Living the Low Carb Life: Controlled Carbohydrate Eating for Long-Term Weight Loss (Get the book.)
