If I remember correctly, when Provigil became generic, they bought the company producing the generic form. They also slightly changed the drug and patented a new form as Nuvigil. Last year, I asked my physician's assistant (I have nev

How is that an ad hominem attack? Most cops aren't properly trained to shoot a gun. Some have 1 training session per year and they have to hit 70% on a target 3 yards away. Most don't seem to know how to react in a confrontation

I think the Vatican was crowdfunded in the same way the British Royal Family was. Theft, war, deception, destruction; then some analogous leaseback deal to legitimize everything. I'm not sure the Vatican's revenue but I suppose a

In 2010, Catholic Charities received $2.9 billion from the US Government. This represents about 62% of their revenue. Only 3% ($140 million) came from passing the hat around inside of churches. The rest was from in-kind contributions, in

Something can be both necessary and the wrong implementation. Is it necessary for NSA to do everything it is doing? Also, IronNet intends to charge clients $1 million per month according to another article. My position is that, if someone

Thanks. Can you recommend a book? So the claim that on a ketogenic diet your brain only needs 5% of energy from protein (to make glucose) and the rest from fats and ketones is wrong?

I do not believe that is true. I can eat greasy hamburgers minus the bun and feel completely fine. I thought the body would use fat and ketones to convert to energy and only convert a very small percentage of protein to glucose. From the

Interesting comment. I like the idea of Soylent but would never use it because of the malodextrin and sucralose. If it had some other (better) complex carbohydrate and stevia, then I might consider it.
