  • Imagine Having $42,000,000 You Can’t Spend!
    Which lesson would you draw from this?

    “Crime doesn’t pay?” or “Murphy strikes again?”

    Here’s a story that could be fiction if it wasn’t true.

    On Sunday, December 19, 2004, a gang of Belfast, Northern
    Ireland, robbers initiated a daring 24-hour plan to rob the
    Northern Bank.

    While holding family members of two executives hostage, they
    made off with the staggering sum of $42,000,000. According to
    the Guinness Book of World Records, this heist rates fourth on
    the all-time list and first for a peacetime haul of currency
    alone.

    These were not or ...

  • Prevent or Delay Alzheimer's Disease

    Argh! Where are my glasses? I put them down . . . to do what? And when?

    As the daughter of an Alzheimer's patient, this inability to keep up with everyday items, like my glasses and car keys, drives me absolutely nuts! Absent-mindedness has always plagued me. Now, it keeps me anxious and guessing. Is this an early sign of Alzheimer's disease? Could I end up like my father, crippled with this disease? I decided to stop worrying about it and act!

    I searched the latest literature to see what techniques (no prescriptions, thank you!) could prevent or delay the onset of Alzheimer's d ...

J. - McIvor, R. S. - Hackett, P. B.Journal: Curr Opin PharmacolSleeping Beauty transposons have the potential for use as chromosome-integrating vectors for non-viral gene therapy. Recent preclinical data from mouse models for human genetic disorders have shown efficacy for the Sleeping Beauty transposon system in the treatment of hemophilia, tyrosinemia type I, junctional epidermolysis bullosa and type 1 diabetes. Methods have also been developed to deliver Sleeping Beauty transposons to the lung, liver and tumors for treatments for cystic fibrosis, cardiovascular and metabolic diseases, and cancer. Recent studies characterizing site selection for integration and insertional mutagenesis indicate that the Sleeping Beauty transposon system may be a safer alternative than viral approaches for gene therapy.brbrbr

     
    		 
     


  • The Top Ten Things You Don't Want to Hear About Losing Weight

    (But What You Need to Know if You Want to Get Fit!)

    10) No, you won’t end up looking like the latest hot young model/singer/actress!

    Let’s face it: your body is your body. It’s the only one you’ve got. Can you still look great? Sure! But there are some things you can’t change. You can’t make your legs longer or your feet smaller. You can’t grow five inches or elongate your torso. You have what you have, so work with it! Concentrate on making a healthy and fit you instead of wishing you looked like someone else. You don’t have to be perfect to be attractive. A st ...

  • Four Main Factors Causing High Cholesterol
    Besides diet, other causes of high cholesterol are lifestyle, gender and the heritage of the individual.

    For some, even maintaining cholesterol at the right levels and being fit and thin will still not prevent the development of high levels of bad cholesterol. Due to heart risk factors besides diet, some people require a very aggressive approach which includes cholesterol lowing medication. We will address this issue as we progress in “30 days to lowering cholesterol.”

  • The Profect Solution for Diabetics
    Diabetes, which affects more than 6% of the US population or over 18,000,000 people [i], is diagnosed when the body is not creating or effectively utilizing the hormone called insulin. As a result, much-needed energy from sugar, starch, and other sources are not being exploited as effectively as they should. This can lead to severe adverse health consequences, including nerve, ocular, and kidney problems [ii].

    While genetics and environmental factors play a role, the exact cause of diabetes is as yet undetermined. However, one thing is precisely clear to those with this condition: eati ...
