| Re: Vaxa Attend: A scam? Guest 00:13:07 |
| | They have some homeopathic drugs in Attend that may be the cause of how
effective if it is effective. Active Homeopathic Ingredients: Agaricus
muscarius, Argentum nitricum,
Caffeinum, Fluoricum acidum, Hyoscyamus niger, Iodum, Kali bromatum.
I haven't tried it and I don't plan to because I don't feel like paying
$32. I'll just find an alternative.

Psychiatry's Manufacture of Mindless Mass Murderers.
"Unspeakable acts of terror, torture, and mass murder are not so much the
results of individuals who have lost their minds as they are of individuals
who have lost their conscience. If, indeed, it turns out that the heinous
suicide-attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon are traced to
Osama Bin Laden, and his chief mentor, former psychiatrist Ayman
al-Zawahiri, it would not be the first time psychiatrists had served as the
manipulators behind charismatic, but essentially weak and flawed, human
beings - systematically feeding their hatreds, stroking their egos, and
stripping their consciences - until eventually even the most barbaric act
may appear plausible and rational in the name of some twisted cause."

| In the End Dj 23:02:09 |
| | Sometimes songs say it best: Linkin Park "In the End" sure somes up
the phase of the cycle that I am in right now. I have to hear this
song once a day just to remind myself what an idiot I am. Somehow I
just know my life will totally arrange itself in the next year and I
will end up back where I did 8 years ago, and start again, building an
empire that has an internal destruct button, me. I will get it right,
eventually....
Sound familiar?

| Study: Distractions impede learning Raving Loonie 05:10:25 |
| | By RANDOLPH E. SCHMID, AP Science Writer Tue Jul 25, 12:56 AM ET
WASHINGTON - Your parents were right, don't study with the TV on.
Multitasking may be a necessity in today's fast-paced world, but new
research shows distractions affect the way people learn, making the
knowledge they gain harder to use later on.
The study, in Monday's Proceedings of the
National Academy of Sciences, also provides a clue as to why it
happens.
"What's new is that even if you can learn while distracted, it changes
how you learn to make it less efficient and useful," said Russell A.
Poldrack, a psychology professor at the University of California, Los
Angeles.
That could affect a lot of young people. A study by the Kaiser Family
Foundation last year found third-graders through 12th-graders devoted,
on average, nearly 6 1/2 hours per day to TV and videos, music, video
games and computers.
As Poldrack explains it, the brain learns in two different ways. One,
called declarative learning, involves the medial temporal lobe and
deals with learning active facts that can be recalled and used with
great flexibility. The second, involving the striatum, is called habit
learning.
For instance, in learning a phone number you can simply memorize it,
using declarative learning, and can then recall it whenever needed,
Poldrack explained.
A second way to learn it is by habit, "punch it in 1,000 times, then
even if you don't remember it consciously, you can go to the phone and
punch it in," he said.
Memorizing is a lot more useful, he pointed out. "If you use the habit
system, you have to be at a phone to recreate the movements."
The problem, Poldrack said, is that the two types of learning seem to
be competing with each other, and when someone is distracted, habit
learning seems to take over from declarative learning.
"We have to multitask in today's world, but you have to be aware of
this," he said. "When a kid is trying to learn new concepts, new
information, distraction is going to be bad, it's going to impair their
ability to learn."
That doesn't mean he thinks a silent environment is essential - music
can help in learning because it can make the individual happier, he
said.
But in general, "distraction is almost always a bad thing." ....

Some forms of attention deficit disorder respond well to cannabis
treatment.
Are you certain this wasn't a medical treatment of some sort?

| "Anti-stupid" pill tested on mice Raving Loonie 02:24:44 |
| | BERLIN (Reuters) - A German scientist has been testing an
"anti-stupidity" pill with encouraging results on mice and fruit flies,
Bild newspaper reported on Saturday.
It said Hans-Hilger Ropers, director at Max-Planck-Institute for
Molecular Genetics in Berlin, has tested a pill thwarting hyperactivity
in certain brain nerve cells, helping stabilise short-term memory and
improve attentiveness.
"With mice and fruit flies we were able to eliminate the loss of
short-term memory," Ropers, 62, is quoted saying in the German
newspaper, which has dubbed it the "world's first anti-stupidity pill."
