The German Coalition against Bayer Dangers today brought a charge against Werner Wenning, chairman of the Bayer Board of Management, with the Public Prosecutor in Freiburg (south western Germany). The group accuses Bayer of marketing dangerous pesticides and thereby accepting the mass death of bees. The Coalition introduced the charge in cooperation with German
beekeepers who lost thousands of hives after poisoning by the pesticide clothianidin in May this year. Since 1991 Bayer has been producing the insecticide Imidacloprid, which is one of the best selling insecticides in the world, often used as seed-dressing for maize, sunflower, and rape. Bayer exports Imidacloprid to more than 120 countries and the substance is Bayer's best-selling pesticide. Since patent protection for Imidacloprid expired in most countries, Bayer in 2003 brought a similarly functionning successor product, Clothianidin, onto the market. Both substances are systemic chemicals that work their way from the seed through the plant. The substances also get into the pollen and the nectar and can damage beneficial insects such as bees.
Burning incense may create a sweet scent, but regularly inhaling it could
put people at risk of cancers of the respiratory tract, researchers reported
Monday. In a study of more than 61,000 ethnic Chinese living in Singapore
who were followed for up to twelve years, the investigators found a link
between heavy incense use and various respiratory cancers . . .
Even outside the elite ranks, the 40-something (and older) swimmer of
today is faster than the 40-something of yesteryear. Researchers at the
Counsilman Center for the Science of Swimming at Indiana University found
that the population of Masters swimmers (made up of 42,500 members
ages 18 to 100-plus) has gotten faster over the last 20 years in age groups
from 25 to 55, said Joel Stager, the center’s director. Why is that? They
are applying better skills. "Technique trumps training," Dr. Stager said.
I have this theory about men and aging. In myself I've come to notice that
aging comes in spurts. I've asked others, and they pretty much agree. I'll
look the exact same way for a decade, and then — wham! — God hits the
progeria switch and for two years the downhill plunge begins anew . . .
Metabolic syndrome, or as some have dubbed it, Syndrome X: a disease
marked by rising trigylcerides in the blood, by elevated blood pressure, by
increased insulin resistance — a laundry list of symptoms that seem to join
forces to end men’s lives. It has been lurking on the fringe of medicine for
almost two decades now — a whole-body theory of health that draws a
direct link between some of the most deadly diseases of our time — yet
your doctor probably hasn’t told you about it. It would be easy to dismiss
metabolic syndrome as a new name for a bunch of old problems, or more
cynically, a disease created to juice demand for new drugs. But research is
starting to pile up, and it suggests that a host of heart- and blood-related
ailments are not only on the rise but also more closely connected than
previously thought. It starts with symptoms that men tend to regard as
the inevitable decay that comes with age: a few extra pounds, an increase
in blood pressure. Then it slowly progresses until you suddenly have serious
problems, such as insulin resistance or increased triglyceride levels . . .
