These devices modulated the radio frequency with the voice signal&amp;nbsp;directly from the auto-leveling output of the microphone pre-amp. This modulates an&amp;nbsp;RF carrier that can readily be "picked up" by any conductive body (especially a nearby head) and due to the naturally polar nature of cellular tissue, become demodulated back into voice-frequency currents through those tissues. These currents have been shown for decades to have all sorts of biological interactions, including accelerated bone healing observed as early as the 1950s. What has also been observed is an accelerated production of certain proto-oncogenes, the precursors to cancerous cells. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;As Dr. Mercola can tell you, cancerous cells are being produced on a continuous basis in everyones bodies, and a healthy immune system quickly identifies and eliminates these cells before they can cause any real harm. So the real question is: do these currents harm the immune system? This is a very difficult question to answer with any solid proof behind it, either way. The most compelling correlations seem to occur with the very young, where the body is still growing and the immune system still developing. This is where electric blankets often result in miscarriages, childhood leukemia and other early onset abnormal growths.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Today's modern digital phones convert the voice signal into a bitstream which then toggles the RF carrier between different quantifiable states. This radio signal has much less low frequency content, and so results in far less current through any body tissues. This is particularly significant because most biological interactions that have been observed occur at frequencies of around 300 cycles per second or less. Much more study is needed before any solid conclusions can be reached.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;It&amp;nbsp;seems clear that electric blankets are a health hazard, especially for a fetus or growing youngster, as well as other high power devices.&lt;img src="http://blogs.mercola.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=88774" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: More Proof Long-Term Use of Cellular Phones is as Unhealthy as Cigarettes</title><link>http://blogs.mercola.com/sites/vitalvotes/archive/2007/01/25/More-Proof-Long-Term-Use-of-Cellular-Phones-is-as-Unhealthy-as-Cigarettes.aspx#88773</link><pubDate>Mon, 12 Feb 2007 23:42:25 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">24451277-a5aa-4add-96dc-64081bfd86fa:88773</guid><dc:creator>ltlenter</dc:creator><description>As dangerous as cell phones may be to our health they play a vital role in our everyday life.&amp;nbsp; I found a EMF Cell Phone Protector, a "diode protection device that converts harmful electromagnetic fields to harmless fields".&amp;nbsp; I have it attached to my cell phone and people ask me about it all the time.&amp;nbsp; More info can be found at &amp;nbsp;www.&amp;nbsp;healthline.cc or &lt;a href="http://www.prlabs.com"&gt;www.prlabs.com&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; I believe we as individual are responsible for finding solutions to those things that may concern us.&lt;img src="http://blogs.mercola.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=88773" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: More Proof Long-Term Use of Cellular Phones is as Unhealthy as Cigarettes</title><link>http://blogs.mercola.com/sites/vitalvotes/archive/2007/01/25/More-Proof-Long-Term-Use-of-Cellular-Phones-is-as-Unhealthy-as-Cigarettes.aspx#88772</link><pubDate>Sun, 11 Feb 2007 06:25:45 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">24451277-a5aa-4add-96dc-64081bfd86fa:88772</guid><dc:creator>66nkickn</dc:creator><description>What about bluetooth headsets?&lt;img src="http://blogs.mercola.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=88772" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: More Proof Long-Term Use of Cellular Phones is as Unhealthy as Cigarettes</title><link>http://blogs.mercola.com/sites/vitalvotes/archive/2007/01/25/More-Proof-Long-Term-Use-of-Cellular-Phones-is-as-Unhealthy-as-Cigarettes.aspx#88771</link><pubDate>Sat, 10 Feb 2007 11:21:11 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">24451277-a5aa-4add-96dc-64081bfd86fa:88771</guid><dc:creator>Antoinetta_Ferrari</dc:creator><description>Thank goodness for text messaging! :)&lt;br&gt;&lt;img src="http://blogs.mercola.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=88771" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: More Proof Long-Term Use of Cellular Phones is as Unhealthy as Cigarettes</title><link>http://blogs.mercola.com/sites/vitalvotes/archive/2007/01/25/More-Proof-Long-Term-Use-of-Cellular-Phones-is-as-Unhealthy-as-Cigarettes.aspx#88770</link><pubDate>Fri, 09 Feb 2007 04:49:08 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">24451277-a5aa-4add-96dc-64081bfd86fa:88770</guid><dc:creator>Daniel J.

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal"&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;Introduction: &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;It is a fact, all&amp;nbsp;of&amp;nbsp;the world's oldest living people are&amp;nbsp;classified&amp;nbsp;as chain-smokers [1]. A few of them drink daily [1][2][3], one of them even smokes marijuana daily[3]. Posed with these facts, research was to be done as to why this was possible.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman" color=#000000&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal"&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;Sources of Vitamin: Nicotine, Cannibinoid, Opiate&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;The brain contains receptors designed to receive nicotine, cannibinoid, and opiate. Thus, we can be assured that they are necessary components of a balanced diet and are of nutritional value.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;Nicotine in Tobacco is analogous to Vitamin B3 (Niacin) [4]. The discovery of Vitamin B3 was through tobacco research, and nicotine (nicotinic acid)&amp;nbsp;is also present in wholesome foods.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;Nicotine is found in Eggplants and Tomatoes, Tobacco, Whole grains, leaves and meat. Consumption of nicotine (niacin) by smoking inhalation of Tobacco is profoundly associated with extreme longevity. [1] To meet the U.S. RDA for niacin (nicotine) (15-20mg/day) requires that a person consume a serving of chicken, a serving of turkey, a serving of spinach, and a bowl of fortified cereal; or smoke 2 packs of cigarettes each day.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;Anandamide is a cannibinoid in chocolate; it binds with the same receptors as THC (marijuana). Consumption of large quantities of Chocolate is known to produce “Marijuana like high"[5] The consumption of cannibinoid is associated with extreme longevity. [3][6] The world’s oldest documented persons&lt;span style="mso-bidi-font-weight: bold"&gt; Jeanne Calment (1875-1997) and Sarah Knauss (1880-1999), were passionately fond of chocolate. Jeanne Calment habitually ate two pounds of chocolate per week until her physician induced her to give up sweets at the age of 119 - three years before her death aged 122. &lt;/span&gt;[6] &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;Opiates are found in wholesome foods we eat; Milk, wheat, barley and poppy seeds, all contain significant amounts of opiate proteins that stimulate the exact same opiate binding receptors in the brain as heroin [7]&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;It would seem that because the brain is designed with receptors to receive nicotine, cannabinoid, and opiate; and their sources being inherently attractive sources of food; Marijuana, Chocolate, Tobacco, Bread, Meat, and Dairy; any intelligent and educated person could capably realize that this meant “higher” nutrition.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman" color=#000000&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal"&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;The Value of Nicotine, Cannibinoid, and Opiate Vitamins in History:&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal"&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;Tobacco&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;Man was never meant to run out of Tobacco and experience withdrawal symptoms, it is the fastest producing crop in the world; yielding 1 million seeds per plant. [8] Praised by Native American tribes for its peaceful qualities. They believed smoking allowed for one to communicate with the “Great Spirit” (North American-monotheistic deity) and the “Heart of Sky” (South American-monotheistic deity). This coincides with the old testament of the bible, which believes that making “Burnt Offerings” allowed for one to atone for their sin, and become united with the Holy Spirit. The Central American Mazatec Shamans practice Catholicism today, they drink Fermented Tobacco Juice and smoke the leaves of psycho-active jungle herbs (Salvia); they believe that this is the way of Jesus Christ.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="tab-stops: .75in"&gt;&lt;b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal"&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;Cannabis&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;Marijuana is industrially the most useful plant ever cultivated by man; it is praised in the bible for its psychoactive properties [9]. It is scholarly understood that the word Cannabis has its earliest root in the Semitic Language of Hebrew.&amp;nbsp; The ancient Hebrew word for Cannabis is Kaneh–Bosem. In the bible, the word was mistranslated to Calamus; though many English bibles noted this error and decided to use “Fragrant Cane” instead, the rough translation of Kaneh-Bosem. Any intelligent person could realize that “Kaneh-Bos” is the origin of the word “Cannabis”. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;The second page of the bible states, “And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which [is] upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which [is] the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for food” (Gen 1:29). To the good believers of the bible, this means [all] herbs yielding seed across the face of the earth; including marijuana and tobacco, are wholesome and of nutritional value. The following verses go on to state that these things are “Very Good” as well. Most believers in the bible believe that Cannabis is bad, because it is illegal. They do not understand that only man has made it illegal, with the intent of inducing malnutrition among the populace. This has succeeded, with the rates of obesity; pharmaceutical companies are now extracting THC from cannabis to use as a weight-loss drug [10].&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal"&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;Chocolate&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;Chocolate is an opiate, cannibinoid, amphetamine, and source of nicotine all mixed together, it was held of the highest economic and religious value by the Indigenous South Americans. [11] &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;Chocolate contains tryptophan. Tryptophan is an essential amino acid. It is the rate-limiting step in the production of the mood-modulating neurotransmitter serotonin. Enhanced serotonin function typically diminishes anxiety. Tryptophan is also broken down by the body into nicotine (niacin).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;Consumption of chocolate triggers the release of endorphins, the body's endogenous opiates. Enhanced endorphin-release reduces the chocolate-eater's sensitivity to pain.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;Chocolate contains a group of neuroactive alkaloids known as tetrahydro-beta-carbolines. Tetrahydro-beta-carbolines are also found in beer, wine and liquor.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold"&gt;Chocolate contains &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: black"&gt;phenylethylamine, structurally identical to amphetamine, well indicating why this food staple is highly addictive.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal"&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman" color=#000000&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal"&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;Bread&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;Bread is spoken of highest value in the Holy Bible. Exodus 16:12, “I have heard the murmurings of the children of &lt;?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" /&gt;&lt;st1:place w:st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:country-region w:st="on"&gt;Israel&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt;: speak unto them, saying, at even ye shall eat flesh, and in the morning ye shall be filled with bread; and ye shall know that I am the LORD your God.” By direct implication, only under the influence of opiates and nicotine found in bread, can man even be able to understand the divine’s existence.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;It is also said in the bible, that both Jesus and Moses anointed themselves with holy oil (marijuana containing) and spent 40 days in the desert without eating bread; yet came back gleaming because they had been with Yahweh. This means that if a person has no bread, he can supplement his nutrition with cannabis to remain in a consciousness that is holy. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal"&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman" color=#000000&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal"&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;Milk&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;Milk, which contains powerful bovine opiate (casomorphine), meant to sedate baby cows; is highly praised in the Holy Quran. “Be grateful to the Bounties of Allah, to eat its meat and drink its milk, &lt;span style="mso-bidi-font-weight: bold"&gt;pure milk, palatable to drinkers." (16:66) &lt;/span&gt;The Prophet Mohammad is reported in the Hadith Collection of his records to have encouraged a man to drink more milk than he normally would. The Prophet Mohammad is also said to have never left his house without “Kefir”. Kefir is a lactose based bacterial culture that cannot factually survive without human care. Kefir also proves beyond reasonable doubt the theory of “Creationism”. Not only is this organism unable reproduce itself without human care, but historic man did not have the capabilities of creating living organisms that would be dependent upon himself for survival. Kefir contains the most important lacto-bacteria’s for the human immune-system, and was required by law to be consumed daily by &lt;st1:City w:st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place w:st="on"&gt;Chernobyl&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:City&gt; survivors [citation needed]. It is not found naturally occurring in nature, and only capable of reproducing itself if placed in buckets of milk. The Recorded History of Kefir states that “God rained it down to man from the sky as a gift”, which also serves as the only rational explanation for its existence. &lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;Mohammad was reported to have healthily lived for 96 years, and was able to fight war through his elderly age.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal"&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;Alcohol&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: black"&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;Wine is spoken of frequently in the holy bible and especially recommended, "&lt;b&gt;Drink no longer water, but use a little &lt;i&gt;wine&lt;/i&gt; for thy stomach's sake and thine often infirmities. &lt;/b&gt;" (Timothy 5:23) If taken literally, we should no longer drink water and instead drink wine exclusively. Jesus turned the water into wine, possibly because water is simply not as wholesome.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;Wine is typically forbidden to Muslim’s, only out of ignorance of their own religion, as similarly experienced by Christians with Cannabis. It is stated in the Quran, “A similitude of the Garden which those who keep their duty (to Allah) are promised: Therein are rivers of water unpolluted ... and &lt;b&gt;rivers of wine, delicious to the drinkers&lt;/b&gt;.” &lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;-- Sura 47:15 &lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;How would Muslim’s ever know the taste of wine, and what to expect in the afterlife, if it is forbidden to them in the first place? I am sure there would be no suicide bombings if they took drinks and relaxed like the Islamic people of &lt;st1:country-region w:st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place w:st="on"&gt;Turkey&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;Tobacco tar&amp;nbsp;is known to protect against the damaging effects of Asbestos [12], cure Asthma and prevent Breast Cancer [13]. Nicotine has been shown to stop Tuberculosis in its tracks. [14] Carbon Monoxide may prevent Heart attacks and Stroke. [15] Parkinson’s Disease is associated with non-smoking [16] Alzheimer’s disease is associated with non-smoking. [17] Less than 3% of smokers die of lung cancer, even if they smoked chemical ridden generic cigarettes. [18] According to the Journal of Theoretic, Smoking simply does not cause Lung Cancer. [19a] Researchers attempted to induce lung-cancer in thousands of mice through exposure to chronic levels of tobacco smoke (equivalent to 200 cigarettes a day in some cases) every study failed. One study even proved that chronic exposure to tobacco smoke protected mice from cancer induced by nuclear radiation. [19b]&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;A person is logged as a premature smoking death no matter what age he dies, including the worlds oldest living people [20]. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;Anti-tobacco research is paid for and governed by the Pharmaceutical industry. [21] The Pharmaceutical industry distributes methamphetamines to children [22], including Desoxyn (Methamphetamine Hydrochloride)[23] Their credibility and integrity is certainly dubious. They happen to be the sole supplier and profiteer of nicotine patches.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman" color=#000000&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;Marijuana smoking is not linked to lung cancer, even though it contains more chemicals “known to cause Lung Cancer”. [24]&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;The Pharmaceutical industry has submitted an ample amount of scientific evidence to convince people of smoking related epidemic, some studies have even shown the complete opposite of the scientific evidence I have chosen to use in my research. It is certain that all of the studies conducted by the pharmaceutical industry are biased to produce anti-smoking propaganda (i.e. using obese smokers as test subjects)(or…citing that nicotine dependent fast-food eaters died from their smoking and not from their fast food consumption [20][25] . No conclusive truth can be established from Scientific Study, but people will believe what they are told on Television to be fact anyway.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=postbody1&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;Those who disagree will choose the scientific evidence that supports the theory "Smoking causes premature death"[20]&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Many people have been confused in deciphering the difference between scientific evidence and fact. Under the Iron-Curtain of Corporatism, the facts will not even be known by most people, excluding myself and the readers of this essay.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=postbody1&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;The fact states that the world’s oldest living people were smokers and suffered no ailment from it [1]. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=postbody1&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;Those who rely on Science Fiction (err...evidence) in an attempt to fraudulate the fact say, "Smoking causes premature death".[20]&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The wisest words to have been spoken throughout the recorded history of man.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;Some of the world’s oldest living people were considered "moderate drinkers". Moderate drinking is defined as 1-3 glasses of alcohol a day. The Queen Elizabeth lived 100 years drinking gin cocktails and smoking cigarettes daily. As did George Burns with his 20 cigar a day habit beginning at the age of 12, he is rumored to have also enjoyed ten martinis on a daily basis.&amp;nbsp;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font color=#000000&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;Most alcohol on the market is cheap crap, filtered beer is crap, preservatives and chemical flavorings are crap and often added to alcoholic beverages. For a good drink, buy &lt;b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal"&gt;quality&lt;/b&gt; Gin that has been distilled at least 3 times.&amp;nbsp;i.e. "Bombay Sapphire",&amp;nbsp;mix it with all natural tonic water and squeeze some grapefruit juice into it. Or try drinking unfiltered beer for a real health experience. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The great scientist Nicola Tesla would have confirmed this today if he were still around. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I find it interesting that no-one I am acquianted with who regularly uses a cell phone, has ever mentioned experiencing the very subtle yet irregular, unpleasant sensations that a user experiences inside ones head&amp;nbsp;while holding a working cell phone up to ones ear. Perhaps one has to be somewhat more&amp;nbsp;aware of ones own body to recognise these subtle sensations, but I suspect it is more a matter of simply paying attention. .... From what I have observed directly myself, this technology definately does directly effect the bodies energy field in&amp;nbsp;a way that does not&amp;nbsp;feel at all harmonious. That is evidence enough for me that one should be very careful about how much one directly&amp;nbsp;exposes oneself to such technology. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;As a footnote,... consider the evidence which was found years ago linking the significant increase in incidence of Leukemia occuring amongst those living near high power electrical power lines. ... There is a relationship between that phenomeon and the potential harm introduced&amp;nbsp;with the likes of cell phone technology.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;img src="http://blogs.mercola.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=88767" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: More Proof Long-Term Use of Cellular Phones is as Unhealthy as Cigarettes</title><link>http://blogs.mercola.com/sites/vitalvotes/archive/2007/01/25/More-Proof-Long-Term-Use-of-Cellular-Phones-is-as-Unhealthy-as-Cigarettes.aspx#88765</link><pubDate>Sat, 27 Jan 2007 03:54:04 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">24451277-a5aa-4add-96dc-64081bfd86fa:88765</guid><dc:creator>rob h</dc:creator><description>&lt;STRONG&gt;lve seen pictures of 2 cell phones cooking an egg in minutes.they have got to be doing harm and im sure its alot over the long term.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;img src="http://blogs.mercola.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=88765" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: More Proof Long-Term Use of Cellular Phones is as Unhealthy as Cigarettes</title><link>http://blogs.mercola.com/sites/vitalvotes/archive/2007/01/25/More-Proof-Long-Term-Use-of-Cellular-Phones-is-as-Unhealthy-as-Cigarettes.aspx#88760</link><pubDate>Fri, 26 Jan 2007 14:21:01 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">24451277-a5aa-4add-96dc-64081bfd86fa:88760</guid><dc:creator>Stan_Polanski</dc:creator><description>The sensational headline "More Proof Long-Term Use of Cellular Phones
is as Unhealthy As Cigarettes" is not justified by the study described
in the article.&amp;nbsp; Case-control studies, such as the one cited, are
notoriously subject to&amp;nbsp; inadvertent biases.&amp;nbsp; Indeed the
authors of the study claimed no more than that it pointed to a hint of
a possible risk. &amp;nbsp; Here is a quote from an epidemiology
text:&amp;nbsp; "These [case-control] studies are commonly used for
initial, inexpensive evaluation of risk factors.&amp;nbsp; Unfortunately,
due to the potential for many many forms of bias in this study type,
case control studies provide relatively weak empirical evidence even
when properly executed."&amp;nbsp; The study supposedly found a 39% more
tumors in a certain type of cancer in long-term cell phone users.&amp;nbsp;
In the language of case-control studies, this would be called a risk
ratio of 1.39.&amp;nbsp; By contrast, the risk ratios found for lung cancer
in case-control studies of smokers vs. non-smokers are in the range of
90 to 100.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Over-interpreting research results&amp;nbsp; is a scare tactic commonly
used by hucksters promoting worthless products.&amp;nbsp; I couldn't help
but notice the ad for the RF-3 headset embedded in Dr. Mercola's
comments.&lt;br&gt;

&lt;P&gt;Just as over exposure to microwave ovens is bad,&amp;nbsp;so to are&amp;nbsp;high voltage electical currents, or electromagnetic fields, produced by them. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;X-ray machines, and over exposure&amp;nbsp;to one's skin by&amp;nbsp;solar UVL rays, or for than matter hanging out around nuclear energy plants without any protection, are not sound or&amp;nbsp;sane adviced either.&lt;/P&gt;

I would rather see someone have a cell phone if their care broke down, then be a victom of a crime. But I also believe they are dangerous for our health. Most people do not read the little inserts in their cell phone packages. I point these inserts out to others. They say right in every box, that they are not proven safe, and that you should not use them for prolonged conversations. I do not think young children should be using them. And I think it is dangerous that more and more people are using them as their primary phone.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I have worked in oncology for years and more and more I see cancers that we are not able to catagorize. Are they new forms of cancer? What are we getting them from?
