Topic: Health and Wellness 5:18 am EST, Feb  9, 2005

Topic: Health and Wellness 5:16 am EST, Feb  9, 2005

Excerpt: "The tragedy of the tsunami is obvious and largely unavoidable. But malaria deaths could be significantly reduced if only health agencies would do the politically incorrect – but morally correct – thing and spray DDT and other long-term insecticides."

The guys over at JunkScience.com have a Malaria Clock, other DDT articles, etc. Cheers, -Pk

Topic: Health and Wellness 8:00 am EST, Jan  7, 2005

You've got to be kidding me.. there is actually a notable difference in accidents when you add alcohol to the mix? Wow, whouldathunkit.

Excerpt: "The researchers will now focus on nighttime flying in different weather conditions and develop test programs to improve aviation safety, such as routine spot checks, or checking on drinking behavior during pilots' biannual physical exams, that might help reduce alcohol-related crashes in the future."

Sheesh. -Pk
