We have received a very positive response from most of the speakers we contacted [...]

"Nature trumps all, and when she wishes to correct the insanity of our plans for her planet, we are helpless to stop or even slow her down.” My world burned on June 24th of this year. I witnessed its genesis on a beautiful Big Sur summer day, clear and warm, the Pacific luminescent in the afternoon sun. And then, from the north, 3 small, innocent, tumbling clouds, passing overhead barely noticed, until... Boom. Five rapid lightning strikes: 4 over the ocean and 1 touching down half a mile south [...]

As I have watched the federal elections unfold in Canada and the USA, I have been constantly astounded by the apathy of the majority of the citizens in each country. I found Mr. Letterman’s comments timely – and applicable in almost every country of the so called “civilized” West. CLWS What are we so unhappy about? David Letterman wrote this; it's the David we don't often see... “As most of you know I am not a President Bush fan, nor have I ever been, but [...]

Web Watch “While working for the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, I monitored two major projects for FDA, in addition to other product investigations. These projects concerned Pesticides and Chemicals in Foods, and Illegal Drug Tissue Residues in Animals. I worked closely with sister federal and state agencies, oversaw contract compliance, and was coordinator and lead investigator on projects involving FDA, EPA and USDA. The toxicology, histology and biochemistry of aspartame (aka: NutraSweet, Equal, etc.) is neurotoxic. The aspartame components injure the blood-brain barrier, allowing easy passage, and will [...]

Stand by for Designer Pain Pills From NewsMax/October 2008 In the not-too-distant future, the pain reliever you take may be fine-tuned to your body. Dr. Dennis Patin, an associate professor of clinical anesthesiology at the University of Miami Medical School, says future pain medications will be tailored to work within the genetic roadmap of each person. “We’ll use samples of blood or body tissue to identify how a person metabolizes a drug, and what medication . . . is precisely best for an individual,” he asserts. This approach, known [...]

We have all learned the standard interpretation of EAV measurement values (see previous article, The Bridge, Vol. 4, Issue #4). These interpretations hold true when most of the measurements are in a normal range (50-64) and stable, but what do we do when all measurements return pathological values? It is not uncommon to find that every “nail” point returns a high value with or without an i.d. If we interpret this according to the standard interpretations then we have to assume that the patient is very unwell – every [...]

October 2008 Dear Members: Those of you who joined us on Tour #30, in May 2004 when we went to see Dr. Geßwein in Bonn, or on several other Tour pro­grams where we attended International Symposiums, will remember hearing Dr. Gerhard Ohlenschläger. I remember him so clearly. A big man, not too mobile in his later years, but always a presence that inspired and challenged everyone he met – a man who even Dr. Fritz-Albert Popp considered a respected mentor. I remember a time during a Med-Tronik Symposium when [...]

Understanding of the Role of Oxygen in Cancer Procreation This paper will explore and assess the contributions of Dr. Otto Warburg to contemporary theories on cancer therapy. Dr. Warburg maintained that lack of oxygen augments the citric acid cycle and therefore facilitates anaerobic glycolysis; this was borne out by medical studies. Another major contribution consisted of his link between oxygen levels to tumor growth and aggressiveness. This paper will prove that the augmentation of oxygen is critical in the fight against cancer and that Warburg [...]

Commentary by Carolyn L. Winsor, September 2008 The following article appeared in my university alumni newsletter earlier this year. It affected me deeply when I read it even though I do not know the author or his family. All of us in this field of biological medicine deal with cancer patients regularly since we have become the “court of last resort” (instead of the first), as they discover their radiation- and chemo- therapies are just not working – and are in fact making them worse and worse. Because we [...]
