The female clitoris 1

The clitoris is a sexual organ which is only found in female mammals. In humans, the visible button-like part is located near the front junction of the labia minora, before the opening of the urethra and vagina (see above illustration). In contrast to the penis, which is homologous to the clitoris, the clitoris does not include the distal part of the urethra and functions solely on the initiative of sexual pleasure. The only known exception to this is in the Spotted Hyena. In these species, the urogenital system is unique, because the female urinates, mates and gives birth on an extended, erectile clitoris which is also known as a pseudo-penis.

Planning drug and alcohol interventions 3

Unfortunately, when a person is in the throes of addiction, they don’t always see that they have a problem. Even if they do recognize their addiction, many people think that they can handle it without outside help. This is almost never actually the case and if you think that someone you care about can’t handle their addiction on their own, it might be time to have an intervention.

Japanese seaweed possesses remarkable immunizing properties, especially in fighting cancer. Japanese researchers at the University of Kitasato have discovered 6 kinds of seaweed which inhibit the growth of colon cancer cells in rats, notably two types of Laminaria.
Laminaria extract has proven 70% to 84% effective in suppressing intestinal tumors. Wakame, another Japanese seaweed, is now familiar to many Westerners, thanks to the arrival in the west of Japanese macrobiotic cooking, which uses it a lot. Pharmacologists at the University of Hawaii injected rats with an extract of this substance. They found that the seaweed helped prevent and cure cancer. The researchers claim that Wakame fights cancer by activating and strengthening the immune system. It can be found in most health food stores.
