America...Unite!!!
I'm just saying that America is in need of deep reform, but instead of complaining about how corrupt it is why not try to change it? why not look for alternatives? I personally will never give up, I will fight for what I believe in, even if it is in a small little blog or thread.

Here's a good idea
They say that walnuts are actually good for the brain. Omega 3 which is found in fish oils and walnuts can help with depression and other brain problems. I read that it is best to eat walnuts that have been soaked in water for a day and peeled. The amounts usually vary and everyone is different but I would suggest experimenting, but don't put yourself at risk, do research first!

There is a theory...
There is a theory and a very strong probability that AEG, more or less murdered Michael Jackson! The love of my life, the man that saved me in just about every way a person can be saved (No I'm not trying to quote Titanic...It's true!) If AEG killed a man for sheer profit then here is what they took from the world for a soless thing like money: (In just what he was to me and what he did for me, there really is no way to measure the good a man like Michael can do) he helped me to get over a fear I had had for ten years, he was the Knight and shining Armor that I always knew a child like me would need...a knight and shining armor that would fight for the lives and happyness of children like me, he inspiored me in more ways than I can count, he proved to me that there can stilll be good in the heart of a simple man, he was alive and just that one simple thing did more for me than anyone else could do because he was my solemate and though I never even got the chance to give him the kiss (I had been saving for him since the very last day I was by his side and dreaming of the day I could give it to him. I refused to give it to anyone else, mind you) I feel as though I've lost the only man I will ever wish to call my husband and that's not even everything he was...no, is to me. Let's not also forget that the children who I will never get to raise, will never see thier father again, I only whish I could somhow absorbe the pain that those children felt...that Michael might have felt. Was it really all for money? could AEG have really killed the man I have loved since time began and the father of the children I love (Because he loves them...and thier children) for a few shards of green paper? the same few shards of green paper that put him in jail twice! (he was never a pedophile, if he was I would have known) and yet he was arested under a simple lie, no proof needed, because of money, because the police get money for thier arests and court appearences and because some fat cow somewhere wanted a new car! It was so easy to kill him with drugs because the pharaphutical company cuts corners and makes drugs that are deadly and addictive rather that trying to be as safe and natural as possible and why? MONEY! The other half to my sole is never going to recieve that first kiss as long as I live because he was tortured and killed for money! I swear if this is true than AEG, Big Pharma, and the Police Dep are going to wish I was never born!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
By the way, do you all want to know the standerd prociedure of putting a person under arrest? I'll tell you they first bully you like big pompus hot shots, then they somtimes physicely assalt you if they think they have the slightest excuse, then they cuff you and put you in thier car (You feel rediculouse) then they take you to thier little station where they strip you naked and search the holes in your body (Including your anus) for drugs, once you are pronounced clean they put you in a tiney little cell to await your triel (You don't know if you'll be out in days,weeks, months, or years) or if you are lucky untill you post bail, but wail you are there they treat you like an animal! like a filth of the earth! untill you leave. This is all done befoure the triel (Innocent until proven guilty are we?) and then if you are found innocent, like my innocent, lovie, dovie, Mikey Mikey Boo Boo! you don't even get an oppology.
To the things that need to change Pharmaphutical niglect and Medical mal-practice, Coperate greed and espionage and Police brutality, heck we are a government of the people and for the people not of greed and for greed let's make the whole government good again we can do it if enough people speak out! Please speak out! If not for my sweet Angel than for yourself, for the children, for animals, for freedom...for good. My heart belongs to Michael and I will never stop screaming for him, I just wish more people would join me.

Happy Fathersday to my Father and brothers
Once again I know this has nothing to do with pharmasuticals, but I just wanted to say that this Fathersday...on the day it's self I would like to take the time to honor my real father and my real brothers the one who has always been there for me even though I sometimes forget it. I'm talking about God, Jesus and the Holy Ghost, it's true I don't have any biological brothers an my biological Ftather, well, lests just say he was never there (My life would have been better if this was true) but God has been the only thing that has ever made me happy, I would see him in Children, Animals, and my friends and family whenever they would shine his glory to to the world and that was a gift he gave me as my father, it's the gift he gives you as your Father, and let us not forget the sacrifice our brother Jesus Christ made for us, he died to save us from our sins, if that is not a good Brother I don't know what is and last but not least the Holy Ghost who makes it possible to speak to the spirit of God, whithout him I would be much sadder and much more clueless, though somtimes it is so easy to question them or forget they are there, I find I am much more happier when I can believe, I know they are there and that they are with me, I have proven this in my own life, but dispare is a powerful thing and we (I) must remember to never forget.

Injured by Vioxx?
Parker Waichman Alonso LLP Has Been Representing Vioxx Heart Attack & Stroke Victims Nationwide Since 2001. Merck & Co. removed its blockbuster arthritis drug Vioxx (Generic: Rofecoxib) from the market worldwide because new data from a clinical trial found an increased risk of heart attack and stroke. Merck decided to remove the drug from the market on September 30, 2004, after data from the trial showed an increased risk of heart attack, stroke, blood clots and other cardiovascular complications. Parker & Waichman has been the choice for Vioxx victims in need of a pharmaceutical liability lawyer since 2001.
Vioxx Recall Timeline
Lancet Says Vioxx Should Have Been Recalled in 2000
Documents May Show Merck Knew About Vioxx Side Effects
The data comes from a three-year study aimed at showing that Vioxx at a 25 milligram dose prevents recurrence of polyps in the colon and rectum. The trial was stopped after Merck discovered the higher heart risk compared to patients taking dummy pills.
Before the withdrawal of Vioxx, the FDA announced that patients taking Vioxx have a 50 percent greater chance of heart attacks and sudden cardiac death. he study, presented at an epidemiologists conference, also found patients taking the highest recommended daily dosage of Vioxx had three times the risk of heart attack and sudden cardiac death as those not taking standard painkillers.
The popular and heavily advertised arthritis drugs Vioxx and Celebrex have been linked by researchers to an increase in the risk of blood clots, heart attacks and strokes.The study from the Cleveland Clinic appeared in the Journal of the American Medical Association and was based on an analysis of previous clinical trials. Celebrex and Vioxx are projected to produce U.S. sales greater than $6 billion this year.
In a study of more than 8,000 patients that compared the COX-2 inhibitor rofecoxib Vioxx) with the traditional NSAID naproxen, the risk of cardiovascular problems, including heart attack,chest pain related to heart disease, stroke, sudden death and blood clots, was more than two times higher in the rofecoxib group than in the naproxen group.
Vioxx, like Celebrex, is classified as a COX-2 inhibitor, or coxib. COX-2 inhibitors, like older drugs such as ibuprofen and naproxen, are nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, or NSAIDs. Older NSAIDs reduce inflammation by blocking an enzyme called COX-2, but they also block another enzyme called COX-1. This enzyme helps protect the lining of the stomach, so blocking COX-2 can cause stomach irritation. COX-2 inhibitors only block COX-2, leaving the stomach-protecting COX-1 alone.
In 2000, Merck spent $160.8 million on direct to consumer Vioxx marketing. Many people are familiar with Vioxx television advertisements featuring the famous figure skater Dorothy Hamill. Sid Wolfe, a physician and director of the Health Research Group of the advocacy group Public Citizen in Washington, D.C. said "Dorothy Hamill doesn't tell people they have a four times higher risk of a heart attack on Vioxx."
