Stem Cell Breakthrough: Can You Now Make Your Own?
Stem Cell Breakthrough: Can You Now Make Your Own?
David Lear
Over the past few years, stem cells have been getting a lot of attention. What makes them so interesting is their ability to stimulate the production of many types of healthy cells. That means that a single stem cell can turn itself into brain cells, liver cells, skin cells, pancreas cells, and so on.
In February of 2003, an article about stem cells was published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA). A team of researchers at Johns Hopkins Medical Center reported, for the first time, that undifferentiated donor stem cells were able to cross the blood brain barrier and morph themselves into neuronal cells.

Great Relationships: How to Get the Spark Back
Great Relationships: How to Get the Spark Back
Jeff Herring
Losing the spark - simply, if you will, falling out of love - is a natural and widespread phenomenon in long-term relationships.
As a matter of fact, most of these relationships experience an ebb and flow that is quite normal and to be expected.
The problem, as I see it, is that most of us buy into the idea that we are supposed to fall in love and live “happily ever after.'’

Parents Need to Vent Anger! Try These 4 Steps to Serenity
Parents Need to Vent Anger! Try These 4 Steps to Serenity
Linda Milo
Parents are losing their self-control to anger. A friend called me today and told me a very troubling story. She told me on a T.V. news program she heard of a mother who was driving with her four year old child. The mother became angry with her child and couldn’t cope anymore with her child’s misbehaving. Finally the mother abruptly braked, stopping the car on a busy highway. She pulled over to the side of the highway, opened the door and pushed her child out of the car, slammed the door and just drove away! Luckily, someone saw this poor kid on the side of the highway, stopped and spoke to the child, had the police come by and the mother was eventually found. Unbelievable ? dropping your child off on a busy highway because you can’t cope with a four year old’s misbehaving or with your own anger!
