Guest guest Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 After the swelling goes down, homeopathic Symphytum is a good one. It's called the bone-knitting herb. I've had two kids with broken bones use it and the docs each time said they were healed way sooner than they expected. I imagine you could even get the herb itself (Comfrey), but I'm not too familiar with herbal meds. Someone here might know.

Guest guest Posted October 22, 2008 Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 Dear Elena: Can you find a pool (at 86 degrees) to exercise in? It has helped my spasticity more than ANYTHING else. I moved a few months ago, and no longer can find a pool the right temperature in my area, so I bought a large wading pool & a large aquarium heater to keep it at the right temperature. It's on my private, walled-in patio. It's not as good as a large pool, and I miss the companionship of my exercise group, but it's better than nothing, and it still helps me.

Guest guest Posted October 23, 2008 Report Share Posted October 23, 2008 Private duty care through an agency runs between $17 to $26.00 an hour in the Houston area. They usually have a 3 to 4 hour minimum. Non-agency care is cheaper but more difficult to find and can be unreliable. Lori Sent from my Verizon BlackBerry (unknown) Hi all Can any one give me an idea that how much I have to pay, a day, to an attendant at Missouri, Houston to help me in the morning and in the evening total for about 3 hrs a day.

Guest guest Posted October 25, 2008 Report Share Posted October 25, 2008 Just curious. How do you suppose they will load those mosquitoes. If they inject the mosquitoes with their poison and the bug doesn't die, than the poison would have to be placed at the begining of the snout so the bug can fire it. I am also wondering what instrument they have that would hold the bug still while they injected it. I know I tried to catch some of those critters when I was a kid, and every time I pinched it off my arm it kinda got squashed. Just having some fun.

Yen Wah Tong at the National University of Singapore will attempt to create nanoparticles to " soak up " viruses circulating in the body; the particles will be imprinted with the viruses in order to mimic the three-dimensional structure of cells that the virus normally tries to infect. Huan Nguyen of the International Vaccine Institute in North Korea will explore whether green fluorescent protein is endowed with unique immunological properties which could be used to develop a universal flu vaccine. Leonard Damelin at the National Health Laboratory Service in South Africa will attempt to improve bacteria that naturally line the walls of the vagina and cervix in order to enhance their ability to fight infections. They are four of 104 grantees announced today by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation in the first round of funding from Grand Challenges Explorations, an initiative to help lower the barriers for testing innovative ideas in global health. The grants of US$100,000 each will be made to scientists from 22 countries and five continents to explore bold and largely unproven ways to improve global health. The focus in this $10.4 million first round of grants is on preventing or curing infectious diseases such as HIV/AIDS and TB, and limiting the emergence of drug resistance. " We were hoping this program would level the playing field so anyone with a transformational idea could more quickly assess its potential for the benefit of global health, " said Dr. Tachi Yamada, president of global health at the Gates Foundation, who announced the grants at the fourth annual meeting of the Grand Challenges in Global Health initiative in Bangkok. Mosquito prepares to bite. (Photo by Saminda Ranatunga) " The quality of the applications exceeded all of our expectations, " he said. " It was so hard for reviewers to champion just one great idea that we selected almost twice as many projects for funding as we had initially planned. " U.S. scientists were funded for some novel proposals, with nanotechnology high on the grantee list. ny He of Indiana University has a new hypothesis. He proposes to engineer biodegradable nanoparticles that target active and latent HIV-infected cells by binding to the carbohydrate portion of the protein gp120, which the virus uses to seek out host cells. He believes the “sticky” nanoparticles would then bind HIV, either in the blood, or within cells, killing the virus. Yasmin Thanavala at the Roswell Park Cancer Institute in Buffalo, New York will use her grant to develop a single dose vaccine that can be given as close to birth as possible to protect against multiple diseases, delivered by nanoparticles. Dan Feldheim, University of Colorado is the primary investigator of a funded project that will use nanocrystals for the treatment of pathogens that are resistant to a number of different drugs. Alfred Roca at the University of Illinois is funded to investigate his new hypothesis - the genetic resistance to HIV in human African forest populations. All levels of scientists are represented, including young investigators who never before have received a research grant, and those who were applying experience from other fields like bioengineering. Grants were made to universities and other nonprofit organizations, government agencies, and six private companies. Applications for round two of the grants are now being accepted. Visit: http://www.gcgh.org/Pages/default.aspx Based in Seattle, the foundation is led by chief executive Jeff Raikes and co-chairs H. Gates Sr., Microsoft founder Bill Gates, and Melinda French Gates. In developing countries, the foundation focuses on improving health, reducing extreme poverty, and increasing access to technology in public libraries.. In the United States, the foundation seeks to ensure that all people have access to a great education and to technology in public libraries. Copyright Environment News Service (ENS) 2008.

Guest guest Posted October 28, 2008 Report Share Posted October 28, 2008 Why not leave the original alone as an experiment and start a new one with the new healthy scoby?? That's what I would do, however tiny I would be curious as to how it would make out and would feel bad just ditching it all together. Just my opinion. Dorene (unknown) Hi! In my last e-mail I mentioned receiving a very tiny scoby. I had made a full brew in advance of its arrival. When I saw the tiny little baby I used half the amount and refrigerated the rest. This morning I received a call from a local health food store who said they a scoby for me. It was from a friend of one of the girls who worked there. Not only that, I was able to find a beautiful empty glass jar in the deli section that is just perfect. My question now is: Should I start from scratch with a new brew, or add the tiny scoby and the tea as well as the refrigerated liquid to the new scoby. I would heat it up to take off the refrigerated chill. A part of me thinks I should just start from scratch. Any suggestions? Thanks for all the help I received and the offer of a scoby.

Guest guest Posted October 28, 2008 Report Share Posted October 28, 2008 i was so amazed that you got such a puny scoby from K America that i called them today as a prospective buyer (KT undercover special agent!) and asked about the size of their scobys. he told me that they dont sell scobys, but only the kombucha culture grown in a test tube for purity, and that both the scoby and starter tea is unneccessary, but that their products are guaranteed. so, according to what he said, and if you followed their instructions, then what they sent will grow a scoby. i would be tempted to let their batch sit for the required time and see what happens, and use your new scoby to start a separate batch. i am really glad you posted this, as this is one of the sites i looked at when i was in the market for a scoby, and now i am really glad i went elsewhere. i would have no problem with them selling it this way if their site clearly indicated that. but it does show a picture of nice fat white scobys, making it easy to believe that is what you would get. glad you found one locally dl ________________________________ From: Kathe Farrell <kathe.farrell@...> kombucha tea Sent: Tuesday, October 28, 2008 4:00:18 PM Subject: (unknown) Hi!
