Inside Story - Preventing another financial crisis - 15 Dec 09
|
Barack Obama, the US President is running out of patience with US bankers, whom he accused of fighting common sense consumer protections. In a meeting on Monday he urged them to support new legislation to reform Wall Street. And he told them they owed it to the country to help the economy by lending more money to small businesses. It comes after a clearly irritated president said he did not run for office just so he could help out a bunch of fat cat bankers. But does the new legislation go far enough? And will it prevent another financial crisis from happening again? |

Step 2: Understand how it spreads Swine flu is spread between humans like a cold: A person can catch it by being sneezed, coughed, or breathed on by a carrier, or by touching a surface that has the virus on it and then touching their own nose, eyes, or mouth. Direct contact with infected pigs can also transmit the virus to people, and vice versa. So far, no other animals can transmit the virus to humans. Tip: You cannot get swine flu from eating cooked pork or pork products. Step 3: Wash your hands Wash your hands with warm water <b>...</b> |

How To Prevent Nearsightedness
|
Nearsightedness which is often caused by too much "near work" (computer, reading, school work, fine handiwork etc), can be prevented or reduced using reading glasses. In the last 30 years, prevalence of nearsightedness have increased by around 60% and most of that results from poor viewing habits during computer use and schooling. sciencenews.org Even the science series "NOVA" recognize that environment also plays a role in our health. www.pbs.org I have designed a fold-able reading stand to improve your posture and help maintain a good reading distance. Find the free PDF file here: www.mediafire.com Bifocal lenses and reading glasses (aka. plus lenses) are highly effective in preventing or at least slowing the development of nearsightedness. Bifocal lenses work by having reading lenses built into the lower half of regular perscription lenses. Independent verification: American Optometic Association (pg 31-35) www.aoa.org Please comment and favorite! Post a video response with one of your video to make this video more visible! Incidences of nearsightedness or myopia, has increased dramatically in recent decades. This increase is caused primarily by excessive amounts of near tasks such as reading and computer use. This animation provides information on how to reduce and prevent nearsightedness. Together, we can make a difference! We would like to design an effective petition to further this cause. I welcome your ideas and request that you post them as video comments. Thank you |

Preventing Illnesses and Diseases with Vitamin C
|
www.encognitive.com Vitamin C - The Most Essential Nutrient Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) is a vitamin only because it is a nutrient essential for life that is not manufactured in the body and must be obtained from outside sources. Every living thing on this planet except primates (Including man) and guinea pigs produce their own Vitamin C internally, do not require it in their diet, and do not suffer from a host of diseases and maladies caused by Vitamin C deficiencies. Vitamin C is manufactured internally from glucose by a four-step process, each requiring a specific enzyme. Humans have the first three enzymes but the fourth is damaged and non functional apparently from a genetic mutation that occurred in our distant ancestors. It seems that we really have a species wide genetic disease. Perhaps fixing this genetic defect should be a primary goal for the genetic engineers of this century. There is a fifth step in vitamin C cycle, the conversion of ascorbic acid into mineral ascorbates in the liver. The price of vitamin C deficiency is staggering. Mammals with the enzyme can live 8-10 times their maturity age. Mammals without it have a hard time living to 3-4 times their maturity age. Therefore, if humans had the gene to make their own vitamin C, the human life span could be more like 300 years. Humans have cardiovascular disease and arthritis while other mammals do not. Humans are also more susceptible to viruses and infections than animals with their own vitamin C. What <b>...</b> |

Preventing Patient Deaths from Fentanyl Patches
|
A recent report from the Institute for Safe Medication Practices warns about the dangers of misprescribing fentanyl transdermal patches, such as Duragesic. ISMP reminds practitioners that these patches are intended only for patients who are opioid-tolerant, and should not be used for acute pain. ISMP also pointed out other prescribing errors. In some cases, deaths occurred in patients who were prescribed multiple fentanyl patches, resulting in overdose. In other cases the fentanyl was prescribed in addition to other pain medications, such as oxycodone, or it was prescribed for patients with pre-existing respiratory compromise. ISMP points out that sometimes pharmacists have dispensed these prescriptions without questioning them, and nurses have applied the patches without recognizing the prescribing error. Here are some of ISMP's recommendations to help avoid these tragic and preventable errors: • Prescribe fentanyl patches only for patients who are opioid tolerant, and who have chronic pain that is not well-controlled with shorter-acting analgesics. These patches should not be used for postoperative pain, or for pain that's short-term or intermittent. Pharmacists should ensure that the patient is opioid-tolerant and suffering from chronic pain before dispensing the drug, and should question the prescriber if this is not the case. • Set dosing limits. For example, pharmacy computer systems could be set to flash an alert if more than 25 mcg per hour has been prescribed as <b>...</b> |
