A Good Battey Justifies Some Drug Use In Some Researchers

I don't need anything other than 81 mg aspirin and 6 oz of wine to be
brilliant but some of you chumps might need more to enhance your

However, in a paper published in Biological Psychiatry (June 24, 2008
online), researchers report that methylphenidate fine-tunes the
functioning of neurons in the prefrontal cortex - a brain region
involved in attention, decision-making and impulse control - while
having few effects outside it. The team studied PFC neurons in rats
under a variety of methylphenidate doses, including one that improved
the animals' performance in a working memory task of the type that
ADHD patients have trouble completing.

Ha.

By the way... is it wise to mix aspirin and ethanol?

It's not as bad as mixing tylenol and ethanol.
Or tylenol and cyanide, for that matter.

In principle a black body is the perfect emitter. However, it is
black. You could double your IQ and not even be clever.

Here's a hint, boy: There is a vast panoply of soft sciences that
have no impact beyond that of masks and rattles. Show us one
economist who became wealthy riding Wall Street's historic
"volatility" over the past two months. Show us one finance house -
with $billion/day cashflows and unlimited budget for personnel and
computer hardware - that came out of this alive.

Is survival insufficient motivation? Yes? Then one and all they are
playing a game without knowing its rules.

�There is a vast panoply of soft sciences that

That's not a physical science problem. That's a _scam_ problem.

_Science_ or some mag recently ran an article suggesting something to
the effect that market economics was based on disowned 19th century
physical science.

The mag should be criticized for publishing an unnecessarily elaborate
attack considering that not one single soul at Hoover, Heritage, Am.
Enterprise, Cato, the Chicago School, von Mises, etc. can even pass a
simple logic test.

Not one outspoken "market" economist can answer a simple question
fundamental to economics:

"Does free speech precede each and every free trade?"

The answer is an obvious self evident truth -- it's beyond debate by
reasonable folk -- yet you'll discover every last outspoken right wing
economist is too stoopid to answer it.

Now, there's a reason our outspoken economists all run like
cockroaches when you turn on the kitchen light at 3 am.

If they answer they only have three (3) choices:

1. admit to the truth and retrain for the productive sector. They
all know that answer will wind up in federal court in a way that would
destroy their scam.

2. deny the self evident truth, look stoopid and retrain for the
productive sector.

3. say they are suddenly too dumb to know the daffynition of "free
markets", etc., look like they are playing silly word games and
retrain for the productive sector.

So no matter what they say the shills will always have to retrain for
the productive sector.

So their plan is to dodge The Question as long as possible to delay
retraining for the productive sector.

The dodging has been going on for 18 years and it may soon be coming
to an end.

Show us one
economist who became wealthy riding Wall Street's historic
"volatility" over the past two months. ďż˝

The problem is not a matter of not having the right numbers or right
science.

A 4th grade accountant could have predicted it.

The problem is they are all in a state of denial.

Show us one finance house -
with $billion/day cashflows and unlimited budget for personnel and
computer hardware - that came out of this alive. ďż˝

Is survival insufficient motivation? �Yes? �

As Nietzsche pointed out mere survival isn't the driving force. Life
wants to "expend" itself more than anything.

Then one and all they are
playing a game without knowing its rules.

They all know they are going to eventually get exposed and will have
to retrain for the productive sector.

It's just a matter of time before they admit it to themselves.

In the meantime there's money to be made off of their State of
Denial. Simultanously buy and sell index options.

Volatility will only increase.

However, in a paper published in Biological Psychiatry (June 24, 2008

Er... what does a 'fine-tuned' neuron look like? How did they know that
neuron's had been 'fine' 'tuned'? Do you believe that there are clever
people who know that brain cells can be 'fine-tuned' and know how to
recognise when they are fine-tuned? Are you taken in by any of this stuff?

the
functioning of neurons in the prefrontal cortex - a brain region
involved in attention, decision-making and impulse control - while
having few effects outside it.

How did they know that the methylphenidate affected attention? Not by
examining the prefrontal cortex. These guys are promoting the idea that
an examination of brain cells can tell us what we are thinking and if
our thoughts are correct, or 'fine-tuned'. Science-pap.

The team studied PFC neurons in rats
under a variety of methylphenidate doses, including one that improved
the animals' performance in a working memory task of the type that

Crikey. Are you aware of what you are being told? But it just 'sounds
good' doesn't it.
First, you are being offered incoherent stereotypes and told that
ADHD'ers are not 'fine-tuned' but 'trouble' in some technical, clinical
way.
Second, you are being persuaded that memory is the measure of
performance, and performance is the measure of man. Really? And you are
being persuaded that there are people ďż˝("patients" whether they like it
or no) who are troublesome because they don't actually behave as if
memory is the measure of performance and that performance is the measure
of man.

Why do you promote this wicked garbage? It'll all get dropped one day
you know, and you'll be left without the support of fellow believers.

I agree them Big Pharma types are pretty corrupt. Moreover I heard
that it's hard to get Concerta without a prescription in Mexico.

You won't have any problem with antibiotics but who ever got a battery
from Binotal 500?

There was an article in a camera magazine about a guy who had a
serious problem with his eyes (drying out, hurting, could barely
see). Turns out, a standard treatment for this outside the US is to
simply draw some blood, centrifuge it, collect plasma, and use the
plasma as eye drops.

Drug companies can't make money from this, of course, but synthetic
drugs didn't help the guy any.

Anyone have any idea what the disease is? I thought I had the link
bookmarked, but can't find it

The poor in America can get rich but by a very limited number of ways,
by consolidating the power of the rich if they have some education, or
by killing consumers with grease if they have little education.

That's hardly inspirational.

Communism won't

around."

(and won't care if you die,

Only a moron would believe any system cares. Maybe a lone individual
cares. Maybe not.

In any event we have _democracy_ not capitalism. The Constitution
never mentions capitalism. Art. I Sec 8 could not be more clear. The
people control all national economic policy through their
representatives in Congress.

The media try to "merely omit" this fact but the truth is getting out.
