Scientists are excited about a new drug that might help research into treatments for Alzheimer’s Schizophrenia and other such diseases. The drug in question? Salvia Divinorum.

Salvia Divinorum is a naturally occurring plant hailing from Mexico. When smoked – or when the liquid extract is prepared properly – the plant’s main active ingredient called Salvinorin A induces hallucinogenic affects akin to those experienced when using LSD. Salvia Divinorum is said to be the most potent naturally occurring hallucinogenic.

The drug effects certain discrete areas in the brain – “[it] seems to have absolute specificity for a single receptor site on the brain” says Dr. Bryan Roth of the Institute of Mental Health’s Psychoactive Drug Screening Program. The drug, it seems, works in the same place on the brain as morphine, heroin and other opium-based substances.

While the long-term effects of Salvia Divinorum are not yet fully understood, it is possible that the line between ‘good’ and ‘bad’ is yet again blurred into obscurity.

Salvia is, according to one commentator, a “minor drug in the world of psychedelics”. It is neither a “party drug” nor does it taste very nice. You’d think that it wasn’t very popular, then?
Not so, as a study of 1,500 students at San Diego State University showed. The survey found that 4 percent of participants had used Salvia in the previous year. Salvia, purportedly more potent that Marijuana and with similar effects to those experienced by users of LSD and PCP, is now being hunted down by politicians, legislators, lobby groups and campaigners. It is notable that there have been no known deaths that resulted from Salvia nor is its hour long duration particularly damaging.
Proposed bills, notably in Florida, would see Salvia placed in the same group as Marijuana and LSD.
In the meantime Salvia is very much alive and kicking, and is available widely on the Internet.

The word on the street is that the iPhone music downloads will shortly be making its way over to Europe. About time too: Europeans have been deprived of this wondrous piece of kit for far too long. The deal has apparently already been signed and service providers from Germany, France and the UK have agreed to be Apple’s service providers. I don’t know the identity of the iPhone downloads will eventually become free.

The free and best iPhone music smaller and slightly backward sibling, the iPod Nano is been given a face lift. Those reliable Apple fans managed to get some fuzzy pictures of it online before Apple’s legal team got on their iPhone apps downloads and texted each other with the bad news. The pictures were soon removed.

I’m not sure which will cause the greatest stir: the downloadable iPhone apps helps for free music download in Europe or the iPod Nano’s new look. I suspect the former. Watch out Europe, here it comes! Watch this space.

If you are serious about your home business then getting serious about your home office is a very good start; fortunately you can get serious about your office space without spending serious money. You need five things: a desk (a table will do), a computer, a telephone, a chair, and some quiet dedicated space.

The quality – and therefore cost – of each of these essentials may well depend on the type of home business that you intend on running: a venture that requires listening to training calls or attending teleconference then a wireless headset can greatly increase your productivity in your home business. A wireless headset allows freedom from the constraints imposed by the telephone cord. It is important to consider these factors before buying anything.

Likewise a home business that requires time on the internet may need a good connection; if you are likely to require mobility (both these things are becoming increasingly necessary in a modern  home business) then consider a good sturdy laptop.

The name Ares may mean only one thing to many people: a popular filesharing program that just makes sharing music and videos easy. Want free music? Use Ares.

Except that’s just one type of Ares. Other types of Ares might not be so useful when trying to download the latest X-tina track. NASA’s space rocket, for example, might be highly technical and very, very strong (it can take 145 tons of payload into a low earth orbit), but it’s unlikely that the first priority of those that built it (or indeed that crew in it when it travels) was to ensure the ease of free music downloads.

Likewise the incredibly violent and sadistic Greek God Ares, though undoubtedly impressed by his namesake’s ability to work around firewalls and packet filtering on college networks, would most likely just chop your head off. If you’re lucky. If not then he, and his minions the gods of terror and fear, would perform upon you unspeakable acts. Unfortunately they’re unspeakable so that’s all I can say about them.

Did you know that sex was an integral part of Napoleon Hill’s Think and Grow Rich? No, neither did I. Not until I attended, along with my husband, a meal attended by a number of other home business owners. As I was chatting away with a number of the guests to my right, I could hear bits and pieces of the conversation to my left. One piece of the conversation I overheard was the word sex naturally my ears pricked up!). They were saying that there was a chapter on sex in the book “Think and Grow Rich.” Sex? In “Think and Grow Rich,” no way!

I got Think and Grow Rich from my partner about 18 months ago from my partner. He bought a copy for himself and a copy for me. This is not my type of book and I was most definitely dubious about reading it. I tried the first three chapters but put it down. It collected dust.

After the party I went to my bookshelf and dusted off my copy of “Think and Grow Rich.” I scanned the content index and found that chapter eleven was entitled “The Mystery of Sex Transmutation: The Tenth Step Towards Riches.” I promptly started to read that chapter and you know what? I was hooked.

Where to get your next iPhone downloads from, that is the question. While it’s not a life-or-death thing, we all realize that without downloads – and we’re including games, movies and music in that – your iPhone is going to be largely useless.

Getting high quality iPhone downloads is simply a matter of directing your web browser to the right place. Try seeing what a search engine says when you type in “iPhone Downloads”. There will be plenty of options, I assure you.

If you’re having trouble finding any iPhone downloads then try these: iPhoneNova.com, iPhoneDownloadPro and NetiPhoneDownloads.com. Like we said: plenty of choice, even if you’re not willing to do the leg work yourself.

So get downloading! There are lots of free sites available if you’re short on the old green. You can even download movies and music from sites like YouTube if you put your mind to it (and remember: Google is your friend).
