My name is hoover, my 18 year old daughter, Tricia was diagnosed with herpes 3 years ago. Since then, we have moved from one hospital to another. We tried all kinds of pills, but every effort to get rid of the virus was futile. The bubbles continued to reappear after a few months. My daughter was using 200mg acyclovir pills. 2 tablets every 6 hours and 15g of fusitin cream. and H5 POT. Permanganate with water to be applied twice a day, but all still do not show results. So, I was on the internet a few months ago, to look for other ways to save my only son. Only then did I come across a comment about the herbal treatment of Dr Imoloa and decided to give it a try. I contacted him and he prepared some herbs and sent them, along with guidance on how to use them via the DHL courier service. my daughter used it as directed by dr imoloa and in less than 14 days, my daughter recovered her health.

I've been running for 40 years and have measured my resting heart rate for most of those years. There is a good correlation between my resting heart rate and my energy-level. If my RHR goes 10% high, I still run. If it goes 20% high, I don't run until it comes down. Not getting enough sleep really puts my RHR up.

I just posted an article about a county in Minnesota enforcing a smoke-free ban on smoking in public places. That article concerns an interesting question of how much influence should government have in controlling the behavior of citizens. It is becoming well known that secondhand-hand is dangerous to our health, and government imposition of smoke-free environments is one way of obtaining improvements in health. However, there are other ways of obtaining the improvements that reduce the influence of government in our lives.

Thank you for posting. I'm sorry for your loss. While I was on Warfarin (generic Coumidin), I was forbidden to climb ladders because of the potential for falling. I'm 76, and so far I haven't lost much of my balance. I do hold on to things when I'm going up or down stairs and when in the shower. Even putting my hand against a wall helps with my balance.

We lost a dear friend, age 70 + after falling and hitting his head. He was on a blood thinner called Coumidin. It caused massive bleeding under the skull. He had a subdural hematoma.
This is common in people who are on blood thinners.

Hi Tyler,

Thanks for your comments and feedback. The primary purpose of that page is to give information about nuclear radiation that provides a context for the science articles that I link from that page. The information I give on that page is sparse and not a detailed explanation of nuclear radiation.

I've rewritten that page, and if you find additional errors in the text, please let me know.

2012-08-15T10:57:36.353-06:00

The first sentence doesn't make sense. To those who read this in the future, this is actually what it read:

"Nuclear reactions cause high heat, and if the reactions are not controlled, high explosive power or bomb-blast."

Another problem with your article is that you explain what a meltdown is and you describe two events where meltdowns have actually occured, but in the middle you put an event where there was no such meltdown. Chernobyl was a Russian RBMK Reactor. If you'd spend 5 minutes researching RBMK, you'd understand why it EXPLODED, and didn't "melt down." Keep in mind, Chernobyl's original purpose was to generate Plutonium for bombs, and generated electricity only as a guise.

You did state a fact that I will agree with: "The radiation from these rods has half-lives of many years, and the spent rods must be stored in a safe way." However, you forgot to mention that because they have a long halflife, the amount of radiation they give off is very low.

Before you write articles on nuclear power, please at least take the time to research the topics you are writing about.

2012-05-21T16:28:18.291-06:00

The Doctrine and Covenants doesn't say coffee is bad. It does say that strong drinks, which are interpreted by church leaders to mean tea and coffee, are not for the belly. This was given by the Lord as a warning: "In consequence of evils and designs which do and will exist in the hearts of conspiring men in the last days, I have warned you, and forewarn you, by giving unto you this word of wisdom by revelation—"

That is, we have been warned that we shouldn't drink "hot drinks". The Lord didn't explain why we were being warned. Almost all of the science articles about tea and coffee that I've read relate to the stimulating effect of caffeine. Section 89 doesn't mention caffeine. Most LDS assume that coffee and tea shouldn't be drunk because they contain caffeine. Maybe that assumption is correct. Maybe it isn't.

The Lord, in giving the revelation contained in Section 89, didn't give a complete list of things that shouldn't be consumed. He gave a few things and expects, I assume, us to make intelligent decisions about other things, such as chocolate and soft drinks.

But 'Doctrines and Covenants' presumably s...

2012-05-21T15:44:02.516-06:00

But 'Doctrines and Covenants' presumably says coffee is bad, whilst science says it is good. Tea is very good. Even a very moderate amount of alcohol is good for arterial health and sometimes very good for social health.

Mormons are allowed it eat chocolate, but only low sugar chocolate is healthy.

2012-05-17T10:43:33.227-06:00

This is a really interesting article. I've read the Book of Mormon numerous times, and this archeological evidence is fascinating. It makes sense the Nephites and Lamanites weren't the only ones on the continent, especially considering the reports of wars the Mulekites fought with an unidentified enemy (must not have been Lamanites).

2011-12-08T23:04:31.489-07:00

Steve,

Your personal "what makes sense?" is a good filter that applies to both hats.

A literal reading of the Bible leads to the belief that Adam lived approximately 6000 years ago and that there were no humans before him. That doesn't make sense to me in light of scientific evidence of humans being here for hundreds of thousands of years.

As I explain in my essay about evolution and the Fall of Adam, I believe Adam was the first person to make covenants with God but not the first person in mortality. This makes a lot more sense to me than the belief that Adam was the first person, period. The 6000 figure is OK with me. The scriptures say Adam was the first person but don't say first of what. Many LDS and other Christians say first to live in mortality. I say first to make covenants with God.

Of course, this is all speculation, and I keep it as such in my mind so I won't focus my energy on things that don't directly pertain to my salvation. Someday, we'll know the answers.

I'm glad you found my blog, and I hope you'll return as you have time.

Good luck on your marathon. I ran marathons in the early 1980s. Now, I just run shorter distances. My personal running blog is http://oldmanrunning.org and my training blog is http://runninginjuryfree.org

2011-12-08T15:00:25.297-07:00

Allen,

Came poking around here after doing a google search of the importance of the fall back weeks in marathon training. My daughter is insisting we do a marathon 14 weeks down the road and that would require a shift of my comfortable 16 week schedule. Anyway, I live in Dallas and am LDS, so I guess once I read your "about me" information it wast such a huge leap to end up here.
I m not a scientist, but a realist. My personal juggling of my "two hats" consists of faith and science as well, with my personal "what makes sense?" thrown in too.
I like reading your posts and blogs- and the responses. Why? Well, for one thing, I feel somehow smarter after reading. How about that? :)

2011-10-11T11:40:36.990-06:00

Hi Joseph,

That particular article was comparing the effects of a few drinks on a scheduled basis vs. binge drinking. Here is another quote from the article.

In the journal Atherosclerosis, scientists found that daily moderate drinking -- the equivalent of two drinks per day, seven days a week -- decreased atherosclerosis in mice, while binge drinking -- the equivalent of seven drinks a day, two days a week -- increased development of the disease. Atherosclerosis, or the hardening and narrowing of arteries, is a serious condition that can lead to a heart attack or stroke.

The article didn't say what kind of drinks were used. If the drinks were wine, then the question of antioxidants comes into play since wine comes from grapes and grapes are a good source of antioxidants. I've read several articles about the effects of wine, in which the authors weren't concerned whether the positive effects were from the alcohol or from antioxidants. I'm keeping an open mind about this and am waiting for more test results to be published.

A similar situation exists with caffeine. Some tests have shown that coffee has certain positive effects on our bodies. Those tests were focused on the effects of caffeine as a stimulant, that is, stimulants have a positive effect when administered in certain ways. The tests used coffee as a way of giving caffeine to the persons. Other ways of giving caffeine could have been used. The Lord didn't say that caffeine is not for the body. He said "hot drinks", and he didn't say why those drinks are not for the body. So, keeping an open mind about health matters is good.
