  • The DNA of Top Achievers

    Of course by now we are all becoming aware of DNA. It is the source code that determines who we are. When we look at DNA we can see what a person will look like, what diseases they may come down with, etc. This has been a tremendous breakthrough for scientists and will continue to be so for some time, I think.

    This got me to thinking about what makes up those who are top achievers. Is there a "DNA" to them? Obviously, all top achievers wouldn't have the same literal DNA but what about a figurative DNA? Is there a common "gene" that they all have? Are there common "genes" perhaps? I th ...

  • SINUS CYSTIC FIBROSIS INFECTION: A closer look
    Have you heard of the infection called Sinus Cystic Fibrosis Infection? From the name itself it sounds for a serious ailment isn’t it? What is this all about and how does it affects future sufferers? Let’s try to figure out how!

    According to scientific research Sinus cystic fibrosis infection is an inherited disorder of the exocrine glands, affecting children and young people. It is caused by a genetic abnormality in the sinus cystic fibrosis infection transmembrane conductance regulator gene that results in the disruption of chloride transfer across cell membranes. As a consequence, ch ...

  • Should We Allow The Genetic Modification of Insects?

    Some scientists argue over creation, intelligent design and evolution. Others argue did man create god or did god create man. Let us discuss our scientific advancements. When does Man cross the line and become a god? Or a creator or modifier of life to such a degree that he has changed the entire current scenario? One interesting development has been to make corn better for ethanol, simply modify the corn more. Call it Super Corn, which uses little water to grow, has high yields and can be used to make plastics, fuel and/or feed the world.

    Well what if we genetically manipulate mosqui ...

  • Ingrown Hair - Seven Causes & Eight Effects

    Ingrown Hair - Seven Causes & Eight Effects

    CAUSES

    1. Skin suffering from lack of moisture

    2. Stiff beard hair

    3. Embedded oil in the hair follicles

    4. Build up of dead skin cells in the pores and on the surface of the skin can cause ingrown hairs - some are more prone to this than others due to genetics

    5. Coarse curly hair growing in a curved hair follicle

    6. Improper shaving technique with a blade such as too close a shave

    7. Hair removal methods such as shaving, waxing, tweezing, electrolysis, often irritate the hair follicle.

    Dead c ...

  • Human Origins
    The issue of human evolution going back at least 9,000,000 (nine million) years and possibly even being upright by that time is another of the facts which when in my youth seemed totally ridiculous. Actually many mystics said it goes back twelve million years to when what could be called the missing link occurred. The matter of whether we descended from apes is still up in the air and more importantly it would appear the mystics were right about cross-breeding and shamanistic attunements to affect such things in many life forms. These qualitative or spiritual changes are reflected in an indivi ...

  • It's Never Too Late to Prevent Osteporosis
    Calcium - a key element in the fight

    (ARA) - Osteoporosis, a chronic disease that results in the deterioration of bone mineral density, affects nearly 28 million Americans -- 2 million of which are men. Despite these staggering numbers, this disease is often preventable.

    Though osteoporosis has been thought of as a disease that affects mostly women, 5-6 million men are at risk of developing this disease each year and the risks increase with age. This year alone 80,000 men will suffer from hip fractures and one-third of these men will die within a year. It has also been estimated that dir ...
