1. Check out the various links on cells in 2. below, and post your impressions:
Well to me we enter the new world of technology, and since that should update ourselves with them. All these subjects I found an interesting among scientists. I believe they become more popular in the future.
2. Side-effects could be all in mind:
well, depend if it is the real medicine or placebo, I have experienced a lot of side effect about my medication that I am using, and none of them are Placebo, but I believe placebo effect could be all in our mind, and even some people are addicted to the drug.

Biophysics - 23 July - Life and Living Systems
1. I know I’m a “living system” because:
I can respond to heat, cold darkness and other stimulation immediately
2.
TCM and Biophysics:
both them use energy which in Chinese medicine it calls Q

Biology - 23 July - Antioxidants and Free Radicals
"People should still eat healthy food" - do we rely too heavily on supplements to provide antioxidants?
You try to improve your diet before you use supplements. That's because nutrients are most potent when they come from food. "They are accompanied by many nonessential but beneficial nutrients, such as hundreds of carotenoids, flavonoids, minerals, and antioxidants that aren't in most supplements.
"Aspirin a day could dramatically cut cancer risk" What are your thoughts on this?
base on this research I agree:
More than 130,000 deaths would be avoided over a 20-year period if Britain's 50- to 64-year-olds took a daily aspirin for 10 years, because the beneficial effects continue even when the aspirin is stopped, the authors say.
A research team led by Professor Jack Cuzick, head of the centre for cancer prevention at Queen Mary University of London, concluded that people between 50 and 65 should consider regularly taking the 75mg low-dosage tablets.
Cuzick said that taking aspirin "looks to be the most important thing we can do to reduce cancer after stopping smoking and reducing obesity, and will probably be much easier to implement".
In a briefing to journalists, the scientist added that he had been dosing himself for the last four years, keeping the tablets beside his bed. "I take aspirin as part of a bedtime ritual every day and I can achieve that quite easily," he said.
However, to obtain the newfound benefits of the drug, people would have to take aspirin for at least five years and probably 10, the review said.

Chemistry - 25 June
Post your thoughts on the diet suggestions in pH Balance: Acids &Alkalis & Anti-Oxidants:
As you know, the foods you eat have a powerful impact on your health. Eating foods that are more alkaline can be health-promoting, as we’ll learn below.
But that doesn’t mean you suddenly have to eat a “raw” or “vegan” diet, which is what we tend to think about when we think about eating highly alkaline foods.
The truth is, eating alkaline foods doesn’t require any extreme measures.
Eating high alkaline foods simply means you’re eating more of certain foods to help prevent your blood from becoming too acidic, which promotes your health in endless ways.
In fact, among other things your body has a hard time properly producing energy in an acidic internal environment, as an acidic state leaves less oxygen available to your cells for energy production

Newton’s Three Laws and me:
a truck collides with another truck and the truck stops, but the driver keeps going The rock in this video wont move unless someone moves it. Newtons Second Law Acceleration increases with force and decreases with mass. Two objects of different weights are thrown off of a roof, you may assume that the heavier object will hit the ground first, but according to Newtons Second Law, the heavier objects acceleration decreases because it has more mass. The truth is, both objects will hit the ground at the same time. Another example of Newtons 2nd Law is that it is easier to push an empty shopping cart than a full one. If pushed with the same amount of force, the empty one will go farther while the full one will be harder to stop. Newtons Third Law For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. When a rocket blasts off, the thrust produced pushes against the ground, forcing the rocket up When walking, you are actually pushing on the earth, and the earth pushes back, causing you to move.
The same applies to cars, bicycles, and boats.
2.Our “Energy Efficient” Culture:
Change the Culture
Take inventory of your office space. How many employees have space heaters at their desks? Minifridges? Christmas lights still blinking away? It's time to get ruthless. First, create an inviting area for shared microwaves, coffee makers and combination printer-fax-copiers. Then ban cubicle energy hogs and challenge employees to change their culture. Everyone should make a point of turning off lights, shutting down unused appliances and wearing a sweater in lieu of using a heater. Try efficiency contests among departments (with prizes!) to spark interest.
3.Descartes has a lot to answer for!
Descartes believes that his "false opinions" has deceived him. The opinions, he worried about, are the information he learned from the time he is born, such as if the earth is round or flat also Descartes wants to break down his 'house' of knowledge because he thought that all the things he knew he accepted without any proof. He wants to get rid of that information and rebuild his experience based on scientific, proven facts.

Biology week 10
1.How do you feel about western approaches to HIV/AIDS?
Well, I believe that we need western medicine to find out about HIV/AIDS, although that still we have a long way to go the only Chinese medicine cannot be enough to fight with we need both sides.
2.What are your thoughts on the issues around the PrEP treatment?
well I agree with it and believe Daily PrEP reduces the risk of getting HIV from sex by more than 90%
3.Can TCM strengthen our immune systems?
Scientific research shows that acupuncture increases the white blood cells in the body and moderates the immune system allowing it to react swiftly and firmly to threats.
