Blind Spot in Cancer Fight
I found an article that speaks about the use of internet searches to find and correlate data from various online databases that may offer help in finding new treatments for cancer.

Fraud in Scientific Literature
I knew that there was an element of fraud in scientific literature, but this story that I came across from the Health Ranger, Mike Adams, demonstrates that it is not just an anomaly, but is a part of ‘business as usual’ with Big Pharma. I have mentioned these elements in my writings. The bottom line
