Dr. Breggin interviewed by Michael Savage
Q
Years ago Dr. Breggin who is psychiatrist was on this program warning America about the dangers of over diagnosis of ADD and ADHD and particularly the drugging of our children with Ritalin today. So, Dr. Breggin, do you know much about this “new epidemic” of newly-diagnosed number of people with autism?
Since we had our firstborn join the family watching TV became an impossible feat. Meanwhile, many parents find it comfortable enough to watch their favorite show while their little ones are playing nearby. Is it a safe practice?
In a news release, researcher Marie Evans Schmidt said “background TV, as an ever-changing audiovisual distractor, disrupts children’s efforts to sustain attention to ongoing play behaviors.”
Schmidt is a research associate at the Center on Media and Child Health at Children’s Hospital Boston.
“Background TV is potentially a chronic environmental risk factor affecting most American children. Parents should limit their young children’s exposure to background television.”

In case you have been following the controversy regarding children autism-related statements by Michael Savage, we are publishing a transcript of his audio comments regarding his opinions and beliefs.
A recent study has found that most of sunscreens available fail to provide the necessary protection. I have a few friends who prefer to forgo the sunblocks entirely out of fear for the dangerous chemicals that them might contain. How do you pick the sunscreen that actually works and that is not damaging?
Is it even necessary to use a sunblock?
UVB rays cause sunburn and skin cancer; UVA rays cause aging and likely skin cancer. Because both cause damage to the skin, Sutton says, it’s important to pick a sunscreen with broad spectrum protection that shields out both types of rays.
At this point, I don’t have much. I hope more materials will come from other parents.
Recommended dictionaries for German-English (and back) translation (thanks to MaryAnn for the links and wonderful tips!):
Both sites offer translation from english-german, german-english, as well as some other languages. I click on english-german, and type in the english word that I wanted translated. Then up pops several choices of german words with sound file attached. I detach the sound file on my hard-drive and insert it into my powerpoint files.

A mother looks at her smiling baby and every tune of her soul is singing a sweet and happy tune… we all know that. However new scientific research indicates there is more to it:
A new study shows seeing her baby’s smile lights up the reward center in a mother’s brain. Researchers say understanding that reaction may help explain that special mother-child bond and determine why it sometimes goes wrong…
Researchers found that when the mothers saw happy images of their own baby, activation increased in areas of the brain associated with reward and the neurotransmitter dopamine compared with seeing images of other babies.
“Going outside? Splash some sunscreen. On yourself, on your baby, on your cat…” Is it really effective? Which sunblocks to buy? New research indicates that just one of 103 products from the second-largest seller, Banana Boat, and the third largest seller, Neutrogena, were recommended to be safe and provide the necessary protection. With top-selling sunscreen brands being the poorest performers, which ones are safe?
An environmental research and advocacy group claims that four out of five brand-name sunscreens either provide inadequate sun protection or contain chemicals that may be unsafe, but industry representatives strongly dispute the charge….
