61. Alice Bailey & Djwhal Khul - Esoteric Healing - I - The Etheric Body, Nervous An Unquestionably, disease and physical limitations of any kind will vanish, is practically nil; you have less susceptibility to the subtler diseases http://laluni.helloyou.ws/netnews/bk/healing/heal1068.html

To Netnews Homepage Previous Next Index ... Table of Contents Esoteric Healing - Chapter I - The Psychological Causes of Disease Owing to this, we come up against another great natural Law which can be expressed simply as follows: Law VI When the building energies of the soul are active in the body, then there is health, clean interplay and right activity. When the builders are the lunar lords and those who work under the control of the moon and at the behest of the lower personal self, then you have disease, ill health and death. Only when the soul, consciously and with the cooperation of the personality, builds the temple of the body, and then keeps it full of light, will disease disappear; this building is, however, a scientific process, and in the early stages of discipleship (which is the time wherein the soul begins to grasp its instrument, the personality) this leads inevitably to conflict, increased strain and frequently aggravated disease and disharmony. This dis-harmony and dis-ease lead to much necessary trouble and consequent undesirable effects. These effects will be overcome but - in the interim of adjustment - whilst they are registering and expressing themselves, there will be much distress, physical and psychological, and all the major and minor difficulties to which humanity seems heir. In undeveloped humanity, the conflict (from the angle of consciousness) is practically nil; you have less susceptibility to the subtler diseases emanating from the three interlocking systems, but at the same time a much greater responsiveness to the three indigenous diseases, to infectious [193] and contagious diseases, and to the great epidemics which sweep through nations and great planetary areas. As humanity develops, diseases become more personal (if I might express it in this manner) and are not so definitely related to the herd or mass condition, They arise within the persons themselves, and though they may be related to the mass diseases, they are based on individual causes.

Lowbush Blueberry Fact Sheet Monilinia Blight of Lowbush Blueberry Introduction Symptoms Life Cycle Epidemiology ... Severity of Infection Ratings Introduction Monilinia blight, or mummy berry, is caused by the fungus Monilinia vaccinii-corymbosi (Reade) Honey. It is common in many blueberry production areas of the Province and can be especially destructive in seasons characterized by extended wet periods for several weeks after bud break. Fields with heavy soil, or poor drainage, are more prone to the disease. The following information should help the grower recognize and control the disease. Infected field Click picture to enlarge Symptoms Monilinia blight infects leaves, blossoms and fruit of the blueberry plant. The first infections take place in the spring at bud break. Young green tissues of the vegetative and flower buds are infected. Several weeks after bud infections, symptoms appear as water soaked or dark brown areas along the midrib and veins of leaves, which soon wilt. Infected blossom clusters become dark purple-brown in colour, and shrivel. A whitish-grey growth of spores (conidia) is produced on the midrib of infected leaves and at the base of infected blossoms. Infected leaves and flower bud Click picture to enlarge Several weeks before harvest, infected fruit shrivel, harden, and turn salmon in colour. The blueberry skin eventually becomes silver in colour and is sloughed off, exposing a hard, black fungal mass called a

Trial: Value of foliar fungicides for disease control Southern Farming Systems GRDC Research Project: SFS 3 Results: 2002 Keywords: foliar fungicides, leaf rust, cereals, Kellalac, MacKellar, Gnarwarre Summary: The Gnarwarre trial suggests that a range of fungicides were effective at giving some protection against leaf rust in Kellalac wheat and that the level of disease control was sufficient to give a significant increase in grain yield. More detail: Location Summary Photos Notes: Interpreting Replicated Trials Why do the trial? Foliar leaf diseases such as leaf rust ( Puccinia recondita ) in cereals can become an issue for producers in the higher rainfall, cool climate zone of southern Australia. The impact of the disease on yield is dependent on the time when infection occurs, the severity of the disease and the yield potential of the crop. Most control data comes from much drier environments, where crop yield potential is generally much lower. While it is preferable to have genetic resistance as the primary defense against these foliar leaf diseases, unfortunately this is not always possible due to varieties available and the mutation rate of disease pathogens.

Warty outgrowths on a potato plant Potato Wart Disease What is it and why the concern? Potato wart disease, caused by the soil-borne fungus Synchytrium endobioticum, is a serious disease that affects cultivated potato and a number of wild Solanum species. It was once the most serious disease of potato but has now been controlled by statutory measures and the development of 'immune' varieties. However, it still poses a serious threat to potato production because the spores of the fungus can remain viable in contaminated soil for many years. Also, new strains of the fungus, capable of attacking potato varieties that were previously resistant, have developed in several European countries. Preventing the spread of these strains to the UK is especially important. Where is it found? It is thought that the disease was first introduced to Europe with breeding material from the South American Andes in the aftermath of the 1840-50 potato blight disaster. Potato wart disease then spread to nearly all potato growing countries in Europe, until statutory measures finally restricted its spread. In most European countries, including the UK, it is now found only locally. Its distribution is very limited in other parts of the world. What does it look like?

Author details Abstract Objective: To study the impact of various risk factors on survival time in a cohort of elderly Australians. Design, setting and participants: Main outcome measures: Mortality rates; risk factors; survival times. Results: There were 668 deaths in 1233 men (54%) and 625 deaths in 1572 women (40%). Coronary heart disease was the major cause of death, rates being higher in men than women until age group 80+ years; stroke death rates were similar in both sexes; cancer and respiratory death rates were higher in men than women across all ages. In a proportional hazards model, the independent predictors of mortality were cigarette smoking, diabetes, very high blood pressure (BP), impaired peak expiratory flow (PEF), physical disability, and zero intake of alcohol. Over 15 years, the average reductions in survival time associated with various risk factors, in men and women respectively, were smoking, 22 and 15 months; diabetes, 18 and 18 months; very high BP, 16 and 9 months; impaired PEF, 14 and 17 months; physical disability, 16 and 12 months; zero alcohol intake, 9 and 5 months.

Abstract Introduction Materials and methods Discussion ... References L.O. Wosu, J.E. Okiri and P.A. Enwezor Department of Veterinary Medicine University of Nigeria, Nsukka, Nigeria Abstract Investigation of the incidence of peste des petits ruminants (PPR) disease in goats revealed seasonality in its natural occurrence in the environment. Tissue culture rinderpest vaccine was effective in protecting goats against the disease. The optimal time for vaccinating goats against PPR was when the least number of animals were incubating the disease. In the tropical humid zone of West Africa this would be in late November. Introduction Peste des petite ruminants (PPR) disease is an acute or subacute viral disease of goats and sheep characterised by fever, stomatitis, gastro-enteritis arid pneumonia. It is an endemic disease in West Africa especially in the humid zone. The disease is caused by a paramyxovirus, close to the rinderpest virus. PPR disease is of great economic importance. It was described as the most destructive viral disease against small ruminant flocks (Bourdin, 1983) and as number one constraint to intensive small ruminant farming. Mortality in susceptible flocks varies from 10% to 100% and morbidity from 50% to 100%. Tissue culture rinderpest vaccine (TCRV) is widely used in West Africa in the control of PPR disease. However, to date, there are conflicting reports both documented and mostly undocumented by field veterinarians as to the effectiveness of TCRV in controlling this disease.

77. Guilford Pharmaceuticals, 1998 Annual Report Initially developed for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease, nilA is part ofa second generation of neuroimmunophilin compounds developed by Guilford and http://media.corporate-ir.net/media_files/nsd/glfd/reports/ar98/regen.htm

These are magnified images of nerve cells which have been treated with one of our neuroimmunophilin compounds. You can see that as the dose increases, so do the number of nerve processes. The production of these processes is the first step in nerve regeneration and is essential for normal nerve function. Using state-of-the-art drug design techniques, Guilford scientists and their academic and corporate collaborators have been instrumental in identifying and developing novel compounds that could one day turn the science fiction of nerve regeneration into a reality. Neuroimmunophilin ligands are small organic molecules which, in animal models, have demonstrated an ability to actually regenerate nerves damaged by injury or disease, without any apparent effect on normal healthy nerves. The Guilford-Amgen Partnership Through the effective application of cutting-edge technologies and a commitment to excellence, Guilford and Amgen stand at the threshold of an important breakthrough. With no drugs yet available which can change the course of most serious neurological disorders, our neuroimmunophilin program offers an exciting blueprint of what is yet to come.

No. 588 Microdialysis as a Tool in Studies of L-Dopa and Metabolites in Malignant Melanoma and Parkinson's Disease Nil Dizdar Akademisk avhandling Fakultetsopponent: Docent Christer Hansson, Inst. for Dermatologi och Venereologi, Lund. Abstract A model with human melanoma xenografts transplanted to athymic mice has been adopted for in vivo studies of 5-S-cysteinyldopa (an intermediate pigment metabolite), glutathione, and cysteine. L-Dopa is an intermediate metabolite in pigment formation and is also important in the treatment of Parkinson's disease, and therefore 1 have also studied the pharmacokinetics of this compound. We were first to describe in vivo microdialysis in melanoma tissue and showed that dialysis membranes of cuprophane or polyamide are suitable for studies of interstitial 5-S-cysteinyldopa and selected thiols. Analytical procedures were also improved for quantitation of 5-S-cysteinyldopa, L-dopa, glutathione, cysteine, and N-acetylcysteine (NAC). In the melanoma xenografts the interstitial concentration of 5-S-cysteinyldopa reflected the high intracellular production of this intermediate metabolite. For in vivo manipulation of glutathione in the melanoma tissue we gave intraperitoneal injection of buthionine sulphoximine to the animals and thus reduced the glutathione concentrations substantially. We showed that restitution of glutathione in melanoma tissue occurs spontaneously and is not much improved by treatment with the cysteine deliverers NAC and L-2-oxothiazolidine-4-carboxylate (OTC). 5-S-Cysteinyldopa was not substantially affected by great variations in glutathione concentrations. Transport of NAC from intraperitoneal injection to melanoma tissue occurred rapidly and deacetylation to cysteine
