DTAP Vaccine And Ear Infections
Troublesome for the vaccine makers when you have these doctors with long memories who are courageous enough to tell the truth.
How Did We Meet?
Stanford University study on how couples meet. Note the statistics that have gone down, as well as those that have gone up!
P.S. This is an alteration of the graph in the report at the following link. I think the report graph is more accurate.

Swimming Pool Chlorine Converts Sunscreen Into Cancer Causing Chemical
If you think you’re doing something good by slathering sunscreen on yourself and your kids before hitting the pool, you might want to think again. A new study places sunscreen firmly on the list of products that can do more harm than good as Russian scientists discover the destructive effects of chlorine in swimming pools on sunscreen.
Researchers from Lomonosov Moscow State University have discovered that the world’s most popular active sunscreen ingredient, avobenzone, breaks down into something far more sinister in chlorinated water. Two of the chemicals it produces upon mixing with the water, phenols and acetyl benzenes, are of particular concern because of their toxicity. This reaction takes place on your wet skin when the sunscreen reacts to UV radiation and chlorinated water, and the chemicals have been linked to problems like immune system damage, infertility, and cancer.
In swimming pools that use copper salts to make the water look blue, this reaction is even worse. In that case, the sunscreen can break down into bromoform, a substance that has been linked to nervous system disorders, liver problems, and kidney problems.
Tom: Good reason to choose the beach over the pool! Or to choose a non-chlorinated pool!

Amazon removes books promoting autism cures and vaccine information
The titles suggested pseudoscientific methods such as ingesting and bathing in a potentially toxic form of bleach and taking medication meant to treat arsenic and lead poisoning.
Tom: Anything that does not have mainstream medical (read big pHarma) approval is “psuedo-dcientific”, even if it works!

So many parents in health groups I’m in are curing or mostly reversing it.
The first case I read about years ago, the mum’s son went from being in nappies, no eye contact, serious meltdowns, head banging and more, to being in regular school. Apparently he was still technically on the spectrum however people generally couldn’t pick it. I think he was between 9 & 12yrs.
Time to set up recovery groups in other social media platforms! Facebook has been removing natural life pages for a while.
Just-Right Personas: How to Choose the Scope of Your Personas
A “Persona” is a fictional representation of an actual user and is applied in the early stages of product development or product redesign. Personas are vital to the success of a product because they drive design decisions by taking common user needs and bringing them to the forefront of planning before design has actually started. Personas provide the team with a shared understanding of users in terms of goals and capabilities. Once Personas are defined, going through a task analysis exercise with scenarios will offer an inexpensive way to test and prioritize features throughout the development (see lesson #2 in the blog Responsive Design: Getting started).
Narrow and broad-scope personas achieve different goals. Success depends upon knowing the tradeoffs and structuring your personas’ scope based on what you are trying to achieve. (7 min. to read) https://www.nngroup.com/articles/persona-scope/
