    October 7, 2011 - Netherlands

    The Dutch government began the process to reclassify strong cannabis into the hard drugs category. The change would mean that coffee shops that sell the drug would no longer be able to sell cannabis with more than 15% THC, the active chemical in the drug.

    MOON'S DARK SIDE
    October 7, 1959 - Dark Side of the Moon

    The dark far side of the Moon was photographed for the first time and pictures relayed back to Earth by Russia's Luna 3 spacecraft. After passing the moon, the Luna 3 looked back from a distance of 63,500 km to take 29 photos of the sunlit far side of the moon. The photos, taken over a period of 40 mins. were developed onboard and radioed back to earth on 18 Oct 1959. They covered 70% of the far side. The photographs were very noisy and of low resolution, but many features could be recognized. Despite the poor quality, they provided the first view ever of this part of the moon. (The far side of the moon cannot be viewed from earth because the moon rotates and revolves in such a way that the same part always faces Earth.)

Natural, safe ways to preserve dental health and oral hygiene.

ARTICLE CONTENT :

HOLISTIC DENTISTRY People often talk about preventative medicine and mention, quite rightly, the need for correct diet, exercise and certain nutritional supplements. But many pathogens and subsequent conditions can originate in the area of the mouth. Whilst the enzymes contained in the mouth's saliva are powerful enough to fight off many toxins, they cannot eradicate all unwelcome visitors. In addition, many people have amalgam fillings which contain mercury. If this mercury leaks into the body's system there can be a host of unpleasant consequences, the most common among them being Candida.

As mercury is essentially a poison, any presence of it in the blood can also increase the workload of the liver, which again may have a number of ramifications. Dentists who embrace a natural approach to oral hygiene and dental health are, in general, in the minority. The field of complementary medicine can provide a huge number of options for the dentist seeking to augment his approach and achieve a higher degree of efficiency. From homeopathy to natural detoxification products, most holistic dentists have found that introducing natural medicinal regimes into their practices has paid dividends.

One particular practice,in Bedfordshire, England, has been utilizing this approach now for almost twenty years. The Luton Holistic Dental Practice use everything from homeopathy to herbal formulas to augment their natural, mercury-free approach to dentistry. Their main dentist, Thomas Nyerges, says, 'We have noticed that recovery time and general response to treatment is remarkably improved when we include natural medicinal supplements as a part of overall treatment.'There are, additionally, numerous testimonials extolling the benefits experienced after mercury removal. Little by little other mainstream dentists are now also beginning to incorporate a more natural approach to treatment, good news for everyone who dreads those visits to the big leather chair!
