Alarming news: Hackers’ posts on epilepsy forum cause migraines, seizures

This is a very alarming article as well as very informative for those individuals who has seisure problem. I encourage you to read the entire clipping as this is very helpful.


Computer attacks typically don’t inflict physical pain on their victims.

But in a rare example of an attack apparently motivated by malice rather than money, hackers recently bombarded the Epilepsy Foundation’s Web site with hundreds of pictures and links to pages with rapidly flashing images.

The breach triggered severe migraines and near-seizure reactions in some site visitors who viewed the images. People with photosensitive epilepsy can get seizures when they’re exposed to flickering images, a response also caused by some video games and cartoons.

The attack happened when hackers exploited a security hole in the foundation’s publishing software that allowed them to quickly make numerous posts and overwhelm the site’s support forums.

Within the hackers’ posts were small flashing pictures and links — masquerading as helpful — to pages that exploded with kaleidoscopic images pulsating with different colors. “They were out to create seizures,” said Ken Lowenberg, senior director of Web and print publishing for the foundation. source

I noticed…

alcohol rehab is widely available here in the States. And take note, I seldom see/watch alcoholic beverages advertisement on television. That’s just what I noticed. There is also a ZERO advertisement in prints, TV or audio for any cigarette brand. Nice huh?

That’s what I call, good governance and when they say they are advocating for you to have a moderation on drinking or DUI or even quitting to smoke, they really mean it :)

Health talks

One of the biggest problem (as far as I see) here in the states is overweight or obesity. It’s easy to gain weight here if you are no conscious with your eating habit. I’m not saying you go on a diet but all I’m saying is the food that they have in here are most likely can lead into weight gaining of you don’t watch what you’re eating.

One of the resort of the people here is the weight loss pills, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. For me, the best thing to do to lose any extra weight is exercise, good diet and self discipline.

I’ve been here in the States for almost a year now but so far I was able to maintain my weight and that is without the help of any pills. All I did is a regular work out and eating the right food. I still eat pizza, burger, steak and etc but I do it with moderation.

The web is my proof

I can’t imagine if I would have acne problems or any major facial issues. Seriously I’ve never tried to have problems with pimples. Yeah sometimes I would have one or two pimple but that’s really rare, those were the times when I would sleep late or if I’m exposed in the dust.

But did you know that acne treatments or pimple treatments are widely available in the market right now? I’m not kidding, the web is my proof.

Doubt hangs over personal gene scans

For the price of a good men’s suit, a batch of new services will scan your genes and spot potential health risks, from cancer to lower back pain. It’s the business world’s answer to a deluge of new genetic discoveries pouring forth from scientists’ labs. Key investors in two of the companies, 23andMe Inc. and Navigenics Inc., are among the biggest names in new technology.

But some analysts and investors wonder if consumers are ready to trust these startups when their own fine print warns against using their information to make serious medical decisions.

“I am a bit skeptical that many people are going to pay $1,000 for information that’s not very useful just for entertainment value,” said Douglas M. Fambrough, a biotech venture capitalist with Oxford Bioscience Partners in Boston.

“I would say that getting your whole genome sequenced is really at this point just a vanity exercise.” source

Cell phone use can cause brain cancer

I saw it in the news today that using cell phones is more fatal than popping a cigar. Not a nice news huh? It was even said that, constant talking on the cell phone can give us BRAIN CANCER. Jesus Christ!! Whew.

The study is not yet released nor evaluated but then this is alarming considering that almost all of us are using cell phones. They are even encouraging texting as it is far from the ear and the usual cause of the person to develop cancer is the heat/radio wave developed from long talks using cell phone.

I remember when I was still in the Philippines that there was a type of illness on the hand that we can get from too much texting. Hmmm, where do we go from here? Or it could be that we need moderation..what do you think?

Doctor Chemist Acomplia

Overweight/obesity is one of the biggest health problems here in the states. That’s why there are a lot of weight loss program or pills that is available in the market. Though for me, no matter how you take those pills if you don’t have self-discipline in your eating habit; it’s still useless.

But still don’t loss hope, I have friends that are using weight loss pills and they said it worked. One of the pills that is available right now in the market is Acomplia. Not sure if you heard of it but Acomplia is very famous in UK. It is a prescription medicine but of course you can purchase it online. Complete the online consultation and later on order the medicine.

Overweight leads to a lot of health problems. You can have a cardiac arrest, heart failure, may lead to diabetic problems and etc. And it’s really hard to deal with a complicated health issue. You may not even enjoy life. Anyway, before purchasing any weight loss pills, you need to run a search on the internet first before buying it. This is to make sure that you know what you’re buying, that is also to avoid any further complication.
