ADHD: Over Medicated? Over-Diagnosed?

Published by vrajavala under Uncategorized Edit This

Natalie Sachs-Ericsson, author and FSU psychology professor states that verbal abuse, as well as physical and sexual abuse can mimic the symptoms of AHDH in a study published in the Journal of Affective Disorders dated 6/2006. she and the co-author, Thomas Joiner found that adults who had been subjected to verbal abuse were more likely to display symptoms of panic disorder, anxiety and depression.

As early as 1999, Professor of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical school, Dr. Martin Teicher was questioning the use of Ritalin and Adderall to treat ADHD according to an article dated 3/1999 in the Harvard Gazette. He says: “If a child behaves like we expect someone with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) to behave, we label the child with that disorder, then treat him or her with medication,” notes Teicher. “That’s not the ideal way to make a diagnosis. It fails to distinguish between children who have a diminished capacity to sit still and those who have the ability but fail to use it.” Teicher also points out that Symptoms of stress, anxiety, or depression may produce behavioral disturbances resembling ADHD.

Many alternatives to prescription medicine exist. However, there is a strong bias in the community, especially amongst teachers to use the prescription drugs. I believe this has more to do with the over-crowded conditions of the school and the inability of the teachers to manage an unruly child in the classroom. it is simply easier to medicate the child.

There are also those in the Field of complementary Medicine who feel that there are natural remedies available for the “hyperactive” child, like combinations of St.John’s wort,Lemon Balm,Passion flower,Bacopa, 5 HTP (Griffonia Simplicifolia and possibly some other co-factors, like Zinc, and Magnesium. However, I have also noticed that some who are diagnosed with ADHD are in fact bipolar and are later diagnosed with that at a later time.

However, in 2000, Dr Joseph Biederman. MGH shocked the psychiatric world by claiming that some children , even as toddlers are actually bi-polar and argued to medicate them as such.

so, if you think your child has this disorder, make sure you consult an expert, and also take the time to evaluate your own parenting style. Dr. Sachs-Ericsson and Dr Joiner point out that verbal abuse by a mother is more damaging than screaming by a father. This may lead to adult depression and anxiety.

I have added an extremely informative video by Dr. John Breeding author of The wildest colts Make the Best Horses. He is speaking here in the video of the PBS documentary The Medicated Child, which I recommend that you watch if you didn’t catch it January 8, 2008.

A few yrs ago, Bill Clinton mandated that the pharmaceutical industry had to do child-oriented research and offered an incentive. The results of that research indicated that adult prescriptions are not effective for children. Big profits for the drug industry?

US v Rhodes Defining “Natural Born Citizen”

Published by vrajavala under Uncategorized Edit This

225px-noah_haynes_swayne_photo_head_and_shoulders_seated.jpg
According to a famous ruling of the U.S. v. Rhodes, written by Chief Justice Noah Haynes Swayne in 1866:”All persons born in the allegiance of the king are natural born subjects, and all persons born in the allegiance of the United States are natural born citizens. Birth and allegiance go together. Such is the rule of the common law, and it is the common law of this country, as well [**18] as of England.
There are two exceptions, and only two, to the universality of its application. The children of ambassadors are in theory born in the allegiance of the powers the ambassadors represent, and slaves, in legal contemplation, are property, and not persons. 2 Kent, Comm. 1; Calvin’s Case, 7 Coke, 1; 1 Bl. Comm. 366; Lynch v. Clarke, 1 Sand. Ch. 583.”

The 14th amendment was defined further by “Rep. J.L.Bingham commenting on Section 1992 said it means “every human being born within the jurisdiction of the United States of parents not owing allegiance to any foreign sovereignty is, in the language of your Constitution itself, a natural born citizen.” according to the federalist blog.
Also please note:”British Nationality Act of 1948 (Part II, Section 5): Subject to the provisions of this section, a person born after the commencement of this Act _shall be a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies by descent if his father is a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies at the time of the birth.”

There is a great deal of interest by the public now about this matter since leo c. donofrio,a semi-retired layer from new jersey, filed a Stay of the national Election, calling into question the eligibility of McCain, Obama and Calero. His suit ,/a>will be heard by the 9 Supreme Court justices in conference on December 5th. Mr. donofrio remarked that this is a ‘rare bird.’
One of the other things that Mr. Donofrio is very concerned about is the alleged Misconduct by a lower court judge and a supreme court clerk in the handling of the case. In fact, he alleges, it was very much like sabotage.

Sweden: A Lesson in Socialism and “Cultural Correctness”

Published by vrajavala under Uncategorized Edit This

swedish-480.gif
I can remember a few weeks ago, someone on one of my blogs wrote that Sweden was not a socialistic country. Today, I came across this video, from youtube “whathitthefan” who reported that the Media in Sweden met in Saltsjobaden on the 21st of March, 1987 and agreed not to publish anything negative about criminality amongst the immigrants. The agreement is known as Lilla Saltsjobadsavtalet. Janne Josefsson, another journalist said in HD SE: “The school for journalists was called “the Communistschool” back then. The students often had political ambitions in seeking work as journalists, it was scary. I worked at State TV and noticed people were being blacklisted. Those who wanted debate immigration policy were called “racists”, it was scary. The greatest letdown my generation of journalists are responsible for is that they purposely never reported the huge immigration problems. We have purposely never reported the gigantic problems related to immigration.”

According to Goran Skytte, another well-known journalist, many politicians, most journalists, producers and managers in media are those who loved Stalin, Lenin and Mao and came from the 68 extreme radical left.
The press is supported by the government, so they have to tow the line, and do not even report the huge crime rate. also, the enormous expense of supporting all these immigrants is now reducing a once industrialized state into a “banana republic.”
In the name of being sympathetic, these social Democrats have called for mass immigration. There are, however, no criminal checks on these Muslim and Somali immigrants who come to live off the welfare system. alarmingly, the youtuber, Svenska nyheter, says, Minister Billstrom has travelled to many countries trying to increase the mass immigration to Sweden.

Justice Clarence Thomas: “My Grandfather’s Son”

Published by vrajavala under Uncategorized Edit This

200px-clarence_thomas_official.jpg
have a little information about Justice Clarence Thomas, his difficult childhood and even some of the negative press around his early appointment about 17 years ago, as a Supreme Court Justice.
However, due to the fact that Justice Thomas has now distributed a very high profile case, Donofrio v Wells to the other 8 Justices for a conference on Dec. 5th, I decided to listen to a recent speech he made which was recorded by C-SPAN and found out that he is a very strong person with a clear idea about keeping the “intent of the Framers” of the Constitution. You will find him starting at about 1:22 minutes into that video, if you click the link.
He quoted President John F. Kennedy “ask not what your country can do, but what you can do for your country” and I got a very strong impression that he might not be entirely favorable with changing our way of government into a Nanny State.
Now, of course that case would be clarifying the intent of the Framers as to what is the meaning of “natural born citizen”.

Mr. Leo C. Donofrio initially filed his suit trough all the lower courts in New Jersey before the election, before docketing the case with the Supreme Court. The suit alleges that three presidential candidates were not natural born citizens, as defined by the Framers of the Constitution. The Supreme court will conference the suit on December 5th which is 10 days before the Electoral College meets.

“Localism” to be Used by Obama to Stifle Dissent

Published by vrajavala under Uncategorized Edit This

People have been worried that the Obama will try to re-instate the “Fairness Doctrine“in order to stifle conservative talk radio. But, according to American thinker Obamabi plans to use the principle of “localism”, which is actually more devastating.

Now, according to the article, this tactic of Obambi’s is an “Alinsky Jujitsu“, in other words, using a little known regulation and using it to promote the socialist agenda. The transition head of the FCC for the Obambi Admin is Frank Riviera who was been chairman of the Minority Media Telecommunications Council.

In the article/speech that Obamabi presented on September 20, 2007 during an FCC meeting, he cited that syndication of Talk shows does not allow minority operators a chance; look at the speech.

This approach, you will remember, was also the basis for the Community Reinvestment Act which gave mortgages to unqualified borrowers and got us into this economic meltdown. Of course, this is all about being “fair” isn’t it?

In this year of 2008, when Journalism died, radio Talk show Hosts are planning their strategy to deal with this upcoming oppression.

My own feeling is that these minority news people and “local” radio hosts have plenty of opportunities with the internet. There is youtube which is only one of many blog tv possibilities on the internet. In fact I have a friend in India who broadcasts his meetings every Saturday on Blogtv.com.

“Congress shall make no law…abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press….” US Constitution Ammendment 1. The Founders’ idea of fairness, equality, etc, was never about equal results, but equal opportunity, but I think that we can leave it to the consumers. Ratings can make or break the media. Isn’t that the way it should be? Yes free opportunity, but if it’s not popular, who’s fault is that? Do we all have to be in lockstep?

Global Warming A Myth?

Published by vrajavala under finances Edit This

I think what you’re worried aobut is pollution, because, according to scientists say that Global Warming is a myth. According to a 2006 UN report, rearing cattle produces more CO2 than the whole transportation industry.
However, scientists say that it the “so-called” Greenhouse Warming may be actually caused by eruptions on the sun, rather than chemicals, or man-made issues.
Now, getting back to what I mentioned before, if it’s pollution that you’re worried about, then we can be worried about the topsoil erosion caused by the livestock industry. Apparently, 75% of American topsoil has been lost, 85% of that due to livestock rearing. Also there is the pollution of the waterways and the ground soil due to livestock excrement.
If you are concerned about the plight of the world’s population you also need to consider that every 2 seconds a child dies from starvation, while it takes 16 pounds of grain and 2500 gallons of water to produce one pound of meat.

The article I cited claims that Global Warming is a political lie and has not been proven scientifically. However, getting back to what I think you’re worried about, how can we live in a cleaner environment: drive hybrid cars and be a vegetarian.
Listen to the video “the Global Warming Swindle.”

O’Robin Hoody’s Effect on the Stock Market

Published by vrajavala under finances Edit This

I’m going to include the video of a friend who carefully followed the stock Market from the beginning of the Electoral Cycle in 2007 to the present moment.
He pointed out that the Stock Market was at an all time high of 14,000 at the beginning of 2007 and showed that consumer and investor confidence was essentially eroded throughout the campaign with every instance of Obambi’s successes.
He showed that when Hillary or McCain started to show some success, the Stock Market rebounded somewhat.
It seems very shortsighted that billionaires like Oprah and Warren Buffet would endorse O’Robin Hood. But there are those that to Warren Buffet, he can simply buy bargain basement stocks four years from now. In the meantime he has plenty of options that the rest of us don’t have to hide his money. The fact of the matter is that people like Oprah and Warren and the other rich liberals have, as Chuck Norris pointed out really good accountants who can find loopholes. however, for the little guy who is in business, they may be the ones who are going to be hit first. Here is the video:

He’s been compared Che Guevarra, Fidel Castro and Robin Hood and it is now a part of our resistance culture. The question remains why would capitalists like Oprah and Buffet endorse a guy who promises to raise capital gains on profitable businesses.

Breaking News Supreme Court to Conference Donofrio case

Published by vrajavala under Uncategorized Edit This

supremecourt.jpg

In a startling turn of events, the brief filed by Leo C. Donofiro will be heard by the 9 supreme court Justices on December 5, 2008. Originally, Mr. Donofrio filed an Emergency Stay of the Election prior to the Election, but was apparently sabotaged by a clerk in the Supreme Court, Danny Bickell, who actually failed to docket the case and reported that it had been dismissed by Justice Souter, when in fact, it was not. He even failed to docket it in a timely fashion, so that when it was docketed, it was after the election.
I have mentioned this in a previous post, Who is Obama? and the details are there. For even more detail and updates you can visit Mr. Donofrio’s site Natural Born Citizen
His suit is non-partisan as he feels that both John McCain and Barack Obama are not “natural born”, a characteristic that is a high standard of quality for eligibility to be president of the United States.
He believes that the Framers of the Constitution intended a high standard of loyalty from anyone trying to be President and that only those born on American soil and born of 2 American citizens would be eligible.
John McCain, although a great American hero, was born in the Panama Canal to 2 American citizens.
Barack Obama, although loved by many, was born with dual citizenship as he admitted on his own fightthesmears site. He admitted he was a British subject when he was born. It would be a strange turn of events if the United States would now return to being a colony.

Christophe Willem

Published by vrajavala under music Edit This

christophewillem3.jpg
In 2006, the world was amazed when a shy young man won the Nouvelle Stars , a French competition like American Idols competition. If you had watched any of his auditions, you would have witnessed a very shy, somewhat awkward young man rather startle himself as well as the judges.
Marianne Williams, renowned guitarist and judge, nicknamed him “La Tortue” the Turtle. At the time Christophe Willem was just a little bit shy of his 23rd birthday. Actually, even though he is an accomplished pianist and songwriter, he was supporting himself with part time jobs like babysitting before the competition.
His birth time is given as 2:20 PM, but I personally think that must be a mistake, because the events of June 2006 are more in correspondence with a 2:20 AM birth time. Mars is in his ascendant giving him tremendous vitality, Saturn is in an exalted position and his personal number is the visionary number 5. By the way, Mars is somewhat debilitated in his chart and that may be partly responsible for is awkward appearance.
His natal Moon (sidereal) is in Taurus giving him his creativity. Another note is that he had just entered his Rahu period. As you may know, this is the 18 year period during which one works on his/her evolutionary purpose.
Here he is singing “Goodbye Mari Lou”
