After more than a decade of failed drug trials and $billions lost in research to try and bring an Alzheimer's drug to market, maybe the pharmaceutical industry is finally ready to admit that they don't really understand what causes Alzheimer's disease. It was announced earlier this week that Roche had failed for the second time to develop a successful Alzheimer's drug. I have been reporting on the failure of Big Pharma to produce an Alzheimer's drug for over a decade now, along with publishing numerous testimonies of how many people have reversed the effects of Alzheimer's and de... read more

Chet Raymo, “At Home In An Infinite Universe”
*“At Home In An Infinite Universe”* by Chet Raymo “They are questions that bedeviled thinkers for thousands of years: Is the universe infinite or finite, eternal or of a finite age? It is certainly hard to imagine a universe that extends without limit in every direction, or a universe without a beginning or end. It is equally difficult to imagine a finite universe; what is beyond the edge? Or a beginning or end in time; how can something come from nothing? How can what is cease to be? The problems are so intractable philosophically that their resolution has generally been left to t... read more
