Everyone has at least one person in their life that is taking a drug to “help” a condition. So many people put these hazardous chemicals in their bodies without a second thought because their “doctors told them to.” They’re following “doctor’s orders!”
Because people don’t listen to reason without hard evidence, I’ve done some homework and come up with list of defective drugs and their side effects for you. This is a great document to print out, read, and pass along to everyone you care about because it could end up saving someone’s life.

Facebook Loses Much Face In Secret Smear On Google
May 13th, 2011
TechCrunch
By: Michael Arrington
Facebook secretly hired a PR firm to plant negative stories about Google, says Dan Lyons in a jaw dropping story at the Daily Beast.
For the past few days, a mystery has been unfolding in Silicon Valley. Somebody, it seems, hired Burson-Marsteller, a top public-relations firm, to pitch anti-Google stories to newspapers, urging them to investigate claims that Google was invading people’s privacy. Burson even offered to help an influential blogger write a Google-bashing op-ed, which it promised it could place in outlets like The Washington Post, Politico, and The Huffington Post.
The plot backfired when the blogger turned down Burson’s offer and posted the emails that Burson had sent him. It got worse when USA Today broke a story accusing Burson of spreading a “whisper campaign” about Google “on behalf of an unnamed client.”
Not good.
The source emails are here.
I’ve been patient with Facebook over the years as they’ve had their privacy stumbles. They’re forging new ground, and it’s not an exaggeration to say they’re changing the world’s notions on what privacy is. Give them time. They’ll figure it out eventually.
But secretly paying a PR firm to pitch bloggers on stories going after Google, even offering to help write those stories and then get them published elsewhere, is not just offensive, dishonest and cowardly. It’s also really, really dumb. I have no idea how the Facebook PR team thought that they’d avoid being caught doing this.
First, it lets the tech world know that Facebook is scared enough of what Google’s up to to pull a stunt like this. Facebook isn’t supposed to be scared, ever, about anything. Supreme confidence in their destiny is the the way they should be acting.
Second, it shows a willingness by Facebook to engage in cowardly behavior in battle. It’s hard to trust them on other things when we know they’ll engage in these types of campaigns.
And third, some of these criticisms of Google are probably valid, but it doesn’t matter any more. The story from now on will only be about how Facebook went about trying to secretly smear Google, and got caught.
The truth is Google is probably engaging in some somewhat borderline behavior by scraping Facebook content, and are almost certainly violating Facebook’s terms and conditions. But many people argue, me included, that the key data, the social graph, really should belong to the users, not Facebook. And regardless, users probably don’t mind that this is happening at all. It’s just Facebook trying to protect something that it considers to be its property.
Next time Facebook should take a page from Google’s playbook when they want to trash a competitor. Catch them in the act and then go toe to toe with them, slugging it out in person. Right or wrong, no one called Google a coward when they duped Bing earlier this year.
You’ve lost much face today, Facebook.

Most People Have No Idea What’s Actually In The Painkiller Drugs They Take
May 13th, 2011
Natural News
By: Jonathan Benson
If you asked the average person what active ingredients are found in their favorite over-the-counter (OTC) painkiller drugs, most would be unable to properly identify them — even if they personally use them. A new study published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine has found that roughly 69 percent of people surveyed were unaware that McNeil Consumer Healthcare’s painkiller drug Tylenol contains acetaminophen, while an astounding 81 percent had no idea that Pfizer’s Advil contains ibuprofen.
A research team from Northwestern University’s Feinberg School of Medicine sampled 45 English-speaking adults at high risk of medication overdosing as part of their study. The group was asked if they were aware of the ingredients in various painkiller drugs they were using. About 59 percent of the participants revealed that they never even read drug labels, and it became clear to experts that many participants had at some point taken multiple medications containing the same active ingredient, which raised their risk of health complications.
Acetaminophen, of course, is the leading cause of liver failure among young people and young adults. In fact, studies have routinely shown that acetaminophen is harmful to everyone’s kidneys, including adults. This is particularly concerning when considering that many people are regularly ingesting unknown amounts of this ingredient from multiple drugs without any awareness of it.
“I think the marketing and labeling of these products is very confusing,” said Dr. Lee M. Sanders, an associate professor of pediatrics at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine who was not involved in the study, to Yahoo! News. “I often get called by medical colleagues (MDs and PhDs) with questions about this.”
OTC non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like aspirin and ibuprofen are linked to causing at least 76,000 hospitalizations and 7,600 deaths in the US alone . Recent studies have also linked NSAIDs to erectile dysfunction, heart attacks, gastrointestinal disorders, and birth defects.

Hedge Fund Manager Found Guilty On 14 Counts Of Insider Trading
May 13th, 2011
The Huffington Post
In what has been a heavily-watched insider trading case, Galleon Group hedge fund manager Raj Rajaratnam has been found guilty on all 14 counts of securities fraud and conspiracy, according to multiple reports. The announcement was made in a lower Manhattan federal court.
(Update: Analysts react to the Rajaratnam verdict below.)
For now, Rajaratnam, who ran one of the world’s largest hedge funds, will be free on bail, but will be fitted with an electronic monitoring device. Reuters has more on the Rajaratnam verdict:
Rajaratnam, a one-time billionaire, will remain free on bail until sentencing on July 29, U.S. District Judge Richard Holwell ruled after the jury delivered its verdict.
Rajaratnam was expressionless during the verdict reading by a courtroom deputy.
He could face 15-1/2 to 19-1/2 years in a federal prison under sentencing guidelines, prosecutors said.
The Manhattan federal jury announced its unanimous verdict on the 12th day of deliberations in what many legal experts said was a strong prosecution case using FBI phone taps and testimony of three former friends and associates of Rajaratnam.
The jury convicted Rajaratnam of nine counts of securities fraud and five counts of conspiracy for what prosecutors describe as the money manager’s central role in the most sweeping probe of insider trading at hedge funds on record.
During the two-month trial, prosecutors hammered at their argument that Rajaratnam cheated to gain an unfair advantage in the stock market from 2003 to March 2009, reaping an illicit $63.8 million.
Defense lawyers had stuck consistently to their main theme that Rajaratnam’s trades were guided by a trove of research and public information, not secrets leaked by highly-placed corporate insiders.
Sri Lankan-born Rajaratnam, 53, was ordered to be fitted with an electronic monitoring device while out on bail.
Prosecutors had asked the judge to jail Rajaratnam pending sentencing, but the judge rejected that request.
The case is USA v Raj Rajaratnam et al, U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, No. 09-01184.
The Wall Street Jorunal has a nice round-up of some of the key moments that may have swayed the jury. For example, Rajaratnam apparently told a colleague: “I heard yesterday from somebody who’s on the board of Goldman Sachs that they are going to lose $2 per share. The Street has them making $2.50.” Because this information came from a key bank employee and was sufficiently outside of the consensus view, the WSJ reports, prosecutors deemed it “material” information.
In 2009, Forbes estimated Rajaratnam’s net worth at $1.3 billion, ranking him 559 on the magazine’s list of the world’s richest people.
Update: Below are analyst reactions to the Rajaratnam verdict:
Yahoo! economics editor Daniel Gross dismisses somewhat the significance of the trial, calling it “a sideshow to the larger financial scandals” of recent years. “Its impact on the economy pales in comparison to the Lehman Brothers debacle,” Gross writes. “The sums of money and institutional failures involved were much less dramatic than in the Bernard Madoff affair.”
What makes Rajaratnam’s case significant, he says, is that it signifies the increasing prominence of South Asians in U.S. pop culture.
Charles Ferguson, director of the Academy Award-winning Inside Job, agrees that the focus on Rajaratnam’s trial is misguided. “The total amounts of money and the consequences in insider trading are trivial,” says Ferguson, according to The New York Times, “compared to the damage caused by the behavior that caused the financial crisis[.]”
Not everyone agrees. Anthony Michael Sabino, a professor at St. John’s University, said in a statement that this could be a turning point in the larger fight against white collar crime. “For more than 30 years, the government has had a spotty history in insider trading cases, reflecting the difficulty of gathering evidence, explaining the machinations of high finance to a jury, and reconciling sometimes conflicting legal theories,” the statement reads, according to the Washington Post.
“It is a defining case,” says Wayne State University law professor Peter Henning, who went on to say Rajaratnam “joins the pantheon of [convicted stock trader] Ivan Boesky and [fictional Wall Street character] Gordon Gekko,” according to Bloomberg.
The trial could also be a boon for the well-meaning trader. “The honest hedge fund managers should breathe a sigh of relief,” San Diego State professor of finance Dan Seiver says, according to Reuters. “This will make the competition fairer… That’s why we need these laws and cases to level the playing field.”
The conviction hasn’t seemed to rattle Wall Street thus far. “There is no market reaction,” says Joe Saluzzi, co-manager of trading at Themis Trading, according to Reuters. “(But) it’s the talk of the Street, no doubt about it.”

“Top 7 Diets” According to Consumer Reports
May 13th, 2011
EverydayHealth.com
By: Susan Amoruso
People looking to shed pounds are bombarded with new and old diet strategies. Some promise quick and easy weight loss, while others require a long-term commitment and lifestyle changes. Consumer Reports recently tackled the age-old question — which ones really work? — in their latest diet ratings, the first update since 2007.
According to Consumer Reports graders, the Jenny Craig diet program was the clear winner, beating out six other popular diets, including Slim-Fast and Weight Watchers.
They graded the plans based on how well they adhered to the 2010 U.S. Dietary Guidelines and on the results of published clinical studies that examined the diets’ short- and long-term weight loss and drop-out rates, according to ABC News.
A 332-participant study published in Journal of the American Medical Association last October is said to have given Jenny Craig an edge over other weight-loss programs, according to ABC News. The researchers found that 92 percent of Jenny Craig dieters, all women, stayed committed to the plan for two years and lost nearly 8 percent of their starting weight. (According to NPR, some critics have carped that the JAMA study was paid for by Jenny Craig.)
Nutrisystem ranked last in the diet rankings, in part because no long-term studies on its effectiveness were available.
So is the Jenny Craig diet the answer to your weight-loss woes, or will one of the runner-up diets work better for you? Get the facts on each of the diet plans, listed in rank order from the Consumer Reports review, from our Diets A to Z center.
No. 1: Jenny Craig Diet
The cornerstone of the Jenny Craig diet is support from a personal consultant (at one of its centers or by phone) who customizes a meal program and then checks in with you weekly. Costing upwards of $600 per month, the Jenny Craig diet includes three prepackaged meals and one snack each day, supplemented with your own fresh fruits and vegetables.
Read more about Jenny Craig.
No. 2: Slim-Fast Plan Diet
The Slim-Fast Plan is a low-calorie diet that focuses on swapping out meals for one of its meal-replacement products: shakes, snack bars, meal bars, smoothies, cookies, and powders for reconstituting by mixing with skimmed milk. Dieters eat six times a day — three snacks, two Slim-Fast products, and one “sensible meal.”
Read more about Slim-Fast.
No. 3: Weight Watchers Diet
Around since the 1960s, the Weight Watchers diet program assigns points to all foods, which you then use to figure out what and how much you can eat to achieve your goal weight. The program is known for its weight-loss support groups, both online and in person, and education about proper portion sizes.
Read more about Weight Watchers.
No. 4: Zone Diet
The low-calorie Zone diet offers the promise of warding off chronic health conditions and resetting your metabolism by changing the balance of the foods you eat. On the Zone diet, you get 30 percent of your calories from protein, 30 percent from fat, and 40 percent from carbohydrates.
Read more about the Zone Diet.
No. 5: Ornish Diet
Developed by Dean Ornish, MD, the Ornish diet plan is an extremely low-fat, high-fiber, vegetarian diet. It dictates that less than 10 percent of your calories come from fat. The diet excludes meat, fish, and fowl. Some research suggests this diet can lower cardiovascular risk factors such as high blood pressure.
No. 6: Atkins Diet
The low-carbohydrate Atkins Diet focuses on eliminating refined carbs such as white bread, flour, and sugar. The premise of the Atkins Diet is that if you cut back on carbs, the body’s usual fuel source, you’re forced to burn your fat stores for energy and thereby lose weight.
Read more about the Atkins Diet.
No. 7: NutriSystem Diet
NutriSystem is a weight-loss program that controls calories with balanced, easy-to-prepare meals. The portions are small and composed of 55 percent carbohydrates, 25 percent protein, and 20 percent fat. The typical meal plan cycle is 28 days.
