POPSRight, so tell me again how the "free market" is the best way to manage health-care delivery An editorial from 2007 shows how research into three promising anticancer drugs has been abandoned. The reason is that the compounds on which the drugs are based cannot be patented (melatonin, for example), which means that pharma companies are unlikely to turn a profit. Understandable, from the perspective of the pharma companies, but unconscionable, from the perspective of cancer patients.

POPSOne Fifth of Humanity Deprived of Milky Way In case you're thinking that light pollution is nothing more than an inconvenience for astronomers and city-bound skygazers, Walker cited a 2008 study of 147 Israeli communities, published in journal Chronobiology International, which "found some evidence for an increased risk of breast cancer for women living in areas with the most light pollution".

POPSDon't Do Like Steven - Get Some Help I think a lot of people feel like Steven - they don't see a sleep disorder as something they can/need to get help with. It just becomes a way of life.

I've found Ambien works well for those bad nights, but herbal substances (i.e. melatonin) can be very helpful as well. The tips provided in this article are great also - I've done them and they've definitely helped.

POPSEgypt cracks down on HIV...REALLY cracks down Between this, the Dubai story (the man who is still being detained for having otherwise legal sleep agent melatonin) and the recent rash of horror films about what can happen to tourists, that's it. I'm never leaving the city again.

You’d think this would spur educators to take action, and a handful have."
