A study shows that water may be more effective than acid-inhibiting drugs in its effect on gastric pH.

Study participants were given either a glass of water, antacid, ranitidine, omeprazole, esomeprazole, or rabeprazole. Their gastric pH was recorded for six hours after each drug intake. Water increased gastric pH by more than 4 after just one minute. In contrast, antacid took two minutes, and most of the other drugs took more than two hours.  Continue reading “Pure Water: This Simple Drink Improved Stomach Acid in Just One Minute…”

A Democrat state lawmaker in Massachusetts has been caught tipping off illegals – many of whom are violent street gang members, child sex offenders and drug traffickers – to imminent Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids Tuesday, even telling criminal targets not to open their doors, to stay silent, to refuse to sign anything and to “fight back” with an attorney.

ALEXANDRIA, Va. (AP) — Adil Hasan and his wife, Enas Ibrahim, came to the U.S. in 2008 as refugees from Iraq, and have been living peacefully in the suburbs of Washington, D.C., ever since. To get here, though, they faced a dilemma as they sat in a camp in Jordan, where they were required to fill out their family trees to apply for refugee status: Should they include Hasan’s brother, Majid Al Mashhandani, who participated in the 2004 kidnapping of American contractor Roy Hallums?

In a phone interview Tuesday, Ibrahim said they decided to keep that relationship a secret. “We just wanted to leave our country,” she said. “When we started the process we were just scared to add his name.”   Continue reading “Family ties: 3 Iraqis in US allegedly hid link to kidnapper”

GARASBALEY, Somalia (AP) — Tears fill Sahra Muse’s eyes as she stares at her severely malnourished son, his thin arms crossed over his bloated stomach. Before he succumbed to hunger, 7-year-old Ibrahim Ali had helped his mother herd the family’s 30 cows on their farm in Toratorow, a village in Lower Shabelle region. But the family lost all they had to the growing drought.

The 32-year-old Muse walked for three days to reach this wind-swept camp 13 kilometers (8 miles) south of Somalia’s capital earlier this week, leaving behind her other three children and their father.   Continue reading “Somalia’s drought once again has thousands on the move”

WEB Notes: Take a look at the damage that is transpiring in the middle east due to the so called war on terrorism. Saddam never allowed or caused this level of destruction, yet the US marches on all in the name of wiping out an enemy they helped create and support. This is extremely sad to see how many lives and families have been wiped out.

In 2012, a chemist working for a crime lab in Massachusetts admitted to the unthinkable. After an extensive investigation, Annie Dookhan told the police that she had altered and faked lab test results over the course of 9 years to cover up the fact that she hadn’t been properly testing many of her samples. These samples were evidence from drug related crimes, and there weren’t just a few. She had tainted the results of tens of thousands of samples, which contributed to the conviction of over 24,000 of suspects.   Continue reading “Massachusetts to Drop a Whopping 24,000 Drug Convictions Because of One Very Negligent Crime Lab Chemist”
