Passing on this urgent call to action from Cathy Zoi:
Dear ken winston,
Friday is the last day to voice your opinion on whether the EPA — the Environmental Protection Agency — should regulate carbon dioxide pollution, the primary cause of the climate crisis. This is a big deal.
The EPA is taking public comment, before making a ruling.
Of course, special interests — like the oil and coal lobbies — are working overtime to defeat a positive ruling and have already gotten thousands of comments submitted in opposition.
Most people don’t know about this opportunity for public comment, so your voice can make a real difference. And with a new president in the White House, it’s likely that someone will actually be listening. Submit your public comment to the EPA here:
http://www.RepowerAmerica.org/EPA
In April 2007 the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the Environmental Protection Agency has the authority to regulate carbon dioxide if it is harming our health and welfare. After more than a year of delay, the EPA is finally now requesting public comments on whether carbon dioxide and other heat-trapping pollutants are endangering our health and our climate.
Join us, and send a message about how crucial it is to reduce harmful carbon dioxide pollution. That you expect the EPA to (more…)

Reliable, detailed monographs on medicinal herbs are available free, online, from the North Carolina Consortium on Natural Medicines.
They come in three flavors:
1. For health professionals.
2. For everyone else.
3. For growers.
You can access any of them.
They are limited to herbs that can be grown in North Carolina — so you won’t find an extensive list of medicinal herbs here. But the information you will find is very thorough and well vetted.
Find them here: (more…)

Naturopath Leslie Taylor maintains an extraordinary database of known information about medicinal herbs on the rain-tree.com website. A nice feature: It includes the scientific (and other) citations.
Much of the information comes from Taylor’s book, The Healing Power of Rainforest Herbs.

I have just made the most remarkable 3,000-year-old discovery that instantly soothes aching, inflamed muscles and nerves and relieves pain and inflammation.
And can’t believe that it’s taken me all this time. I must have first read about this technique at least 30 years ago and “learned it” again in numerous herbal medicine courses over the years.
The forgotten, ancient medical miracle used thousands of years ago in India and China and in other folk-medicine traditions in more recent centuries?
The ginger compress.
Just a hot, moist pack of ginger placed over acutely inflamed muscles and nerves.
I’d never tried it, having lost faith in herbal compresses years ago when I found that most I experimented with seemed to have no discernible healing power beyond the effect of the moist heat. Not so with the ginger compress. It really works. REALLY works. Fast.
It costs pennies, takes seconds to make. You probably already have the makings on hand in your house if you raid the spice cabinet and improvise a bit. And it instantly draws away the swelling and pain… Even better, the effect is lasting.
I’ll tell you how I made it in a moment. (more…)

A report on a couple studies — one published in Chinese — suggests a strong link between bra wearing and breast cancer.
Other studies report a link between bra wearing and breast cysts and breast pain. The cancer link has not been medically established, but has not been scientifically disproven either.
The first and largest study that suggested such a link was by Sydney Singer and his wife Soma Grismaijer. They conducted a five-city survey of 4,500 women in the U.S. While that’s a large sample for a study, the work has been criticized as not meeting high medical research standards. The couple’s alarming findings are summarized on the website 007b.com as follows:
• 3 out of 4 women who wore their bras 24 hours per day developed breast cancer.
• 1 out of 7 women who wore bras more than 12 hour per day but not to bed developed breast cancer.
• 1 out of 152 women who wore their bras less than 12 hours per day got breast cancer.
• 1 out of 168 women who wore bras rarely or never acquired breast cancer.
That tallies to a 125-fold increase in the incidence of breast cancer among women who wore bras around the clock versus those who rarely or never wore bras.
The American Cancer Society dismisses the study and its conclusions as not being scientifically rigorous and says, “There is no other, credible research to validate this claim in any way.”
However, it appears that is not quite true. (more…)
