CATHOLIC WORLD GOES CRAZY about radical POPE resigning
CATHOLIC WORLD GOES CRAZY about radical POPE resigning Pope Benedict XVI is to resign for reasons relating to his health, according to a Vatican spokesperson. He's the first head of the Catholic Church to quit the highest post since the Middle Ages Pope Benedict XVI is to resign for reasons relating to his health, according to a Vatican spokesperson. He's the first head of the Catholic Church to quit the highest post since the Middle Ages. The 85-year-old is due to step down on February 28. The Pope said he is "fully aware of the gravity of this gesture" but that he lacks the strength to govern Church due to age, according to Vatican's spokesperson Federico Lombardi. In a statement released by the Catholic Church, Benedict VXI said that "after having repeatedly examined my conscience before God, I have come to the certainty that my strengths, due to an advanced age, are no longer suited to an adequate exercise of the Petrine ministry." A Vatican official says they expect the period between Benedict's resignation and the election of a successor to be "as brief as possible," according to Reuters news agency. However, his resignation means that the Papacy will be vacant until a successor is chosen. A Vatican spokesman said that the Pope "took us by surprise", suggesting that even his closest aides had not previously been informed of the decision. One said that he was left "incredulous" by the Pope's news. However, the Pope's brother, Georg Ratzinger, said that Benedict had <b>...</b> | Views: 0 0 ratings | |

Confronting the Silent Tragedy of Skin Disease
Approximately 3 billion people living in remote areas of 127 developing countries are deprived of even the most basic dermatological care. Concurrently, there is a chronic and acute shortage of clean water and the enduring effects of poverty and strife. As a consequence, skin conditions constitute approximately one half of all disease encountered in the developing world. While skin conditions are not generally characterised by high mortality rates, ignorance and fear often drive stigmatisation and ostacism of sufferers, who are forced to retreat from normal life with devastating effects on family, community and national productivity. One might conclude that this devastating depth and breadth of impact would lead to commensurate funding but this is not so, skin disease receiving less than 0.5% of total annual R&D spend against neglected disease. But, there is hope, the good news is that skin disease is both highly preventable and amenable to treatment using very basic chemistry. This lecture, explored the modern silent tragedy of skin disease played out in developing countries across the globe, examining the science behind cause and cure using specific examples and case studies, with a clear call to action for all...!

Over 12 weeks, participants lost an average of 17 pounds by taking green coffee bean extract twice per day, making no other changes to their diet or exercise. On average, they lost 10% of their body weight and 16% of their total body fat. Moreover, they experienced NO SIDE EFFECTS of any kind. How Does It Work? This incredible weight loss has nothing to do with caffeine. Green coffee bean extract only has 20 mg of caffeine per serving, whereas an 8 oz cup of coffee at Starbucks has 180mg of caffeine per serving. The key ingredient for weight loss is called chlorogenic acid. Chlorogenic acid works by inhibiting the release of glucose into the body, while at the same time boosting your metabolism and burning fat in the liver. These two mechanisms work together to inhibit the absorption of fat and eliminate weight gain. www.bestdealsanddiscounts.com Quality Guaranteed While it is commonly believed <b>...</b> | Views: 0 0 ratings | |

Debunking the Paleo Diet: Christina Warinner at TEDxOU
TED Fellow Christina Warinner is an expert on ancient diets. So how much of the diet phad the "Paleo Diet" is based on an actual Paleolithic diet? The answer is not really any of it. Dr. Christina Warinner has excavated around the world, from the Maya jungles of Belize to the Himalayan mountains of Nepal, and she is pioneering the biomolecular investigation of archaeological dental calculus (tartar) to study long-term trends in human health and diet. She is a 2012 TED Fellow, and her work has been featured in Wired UK, the Observer, CNN.com, Der Freitag, and Sveriges TV. She obtained her Ph.D. from Harvard University in 2010, specializing in ancient DNA analysis and paleodietary reconstruction. In thespirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations) | Views: 3 0 ratings | |
