  • What Is Cancer, Anyway?
    Cancer is not some foreign invader which has to be cut, burned
    or poisoned in hopes that it will die before the patient dies.
    No, cancer is simply a temporoary malfunction in your normal
    cell division process.

    Each of has about 75 trillion cells in our body. Virtually all
    of them replace themselves many times during our lifetimes. How
    many cells? Well, it's 75,000,000,000,000. That's a lot. They
    have various life cycles, but in about 7 years, they have all
    been regenerated. Amazing? I'll say!

    So, on an average day, about 29 billion cells in your body
    repl ...

  • The Shoemaker And The Elves
    Remember the story of the Shoemaker and The Elves?

    The shoemaker would go to sleep and the elves would finish
    any shoes he hadn't gotten around to.

    Our minds function in much the same way, Our conscious,
    logical mind is the shoemaker. Our subconscious is the
    elves.

    Give your conscious mind a goal, gather all the facts and
    let the elves do their work.

    Many of our greatest inventions and discoveries have come
    after the scientist or researcher had given up and the
    elves took over.

    The structure of DNA had baffled researchers for years. Author:     John Colanzi

  • Psychographics versus Demographics
    Being a branding guy is enough to drive you nuts. One reason why it can make you crazy is that people will ask for your advice - and pay decent dollars for it. I , might add - only to ignore you and the advice they paid for.

    It's not that these are disagreeable people, mind you. These are simply people who refuse to accept how profoundly the web has changed marketing and banding strategies. Sure, everyone has their own theories about how to promote their business on the web, but by far, the most whacked out are the Number Nuts.

    At the risk of generating a few hundred thousand nas ...

    Deleted genes help predict outcome in a children's cancer
    A new study reports that a loss of genes on chromosome 1 or chromosome 11 raises the risk of death from the children's cancer neuroblastoma, even when other indicators seem to point to a lower-risk form of the disease. This research finding will help guide physicians to the most appropriate treatment for the cancer, which strikes the peripheral nervous system. The approach used may also be applied to customizing care for other cancers.

    Bush to errant flock: 9/11, 9/11, 9/11
    Yes, the president's repeated references to 9/11 reminded us that Osama bin Laden is still on the loose. But Bush wasn't talking to us Tuesday night.


    Deletion on chromosome 11q may guide decision to use chemotherapy for neuroblastoma
    When genes are deleted on a particular section of chromosome 11, the result is an aggressive form of the childhood cancer neuroblastoma. A new study suggests that detecting this genetic deletion during the initial evaluation of children with neuroblastoma may indicate to physicians that they should recommend a more aggressive regimen of chemotherapy to fight the cancer.

  • Depressed? It’s Gotta All Be Our Parents’ Fault!
    A newspaper article from the Associated Press a while back reports that scientists say they’ve found a gene (CHRM2) that’s linked to alcoholism and depression. An expert from another organization says that if these preliminary findings hold true that it will provide another “potential target for developing new drugs to treat depression and alcoholism”.

    Well, I’m excited now… Oh, don’t get me wrong. I’m sure there are many, many people who came into this earthly existence so hard-wired with these tendencies that the proper drug or combination of drugs would be extremely beneficial. And commo ...

  • Where Should You Go On The First Date?

    One of the most frequently asked questions in the history of dating (with the exception of the caveman who was a firm believer in kidnapping and always took his date to a filthy cave) is where should one go on a first date. For starters, there are several places you shouldn't even think about going on a first date. They are listed below in order of "you'll die alone" rankings.

    1) Never go to your parent's house, especially if you still live there, on a first date. It says you're beyond desperate.

    2) When you promise someone a good time, it does not mean a luxury chicken box dinn ...
