Doctor Tom's Rant

More than half of American adults take a vitamin or mineral supplement, says Harvard Medical School's Dr. JoAnn Manson, chief of preventive medicine at Brigham and Women's Hospital. And many wonder whether they really should be. Or whether they're taking the right ones, or the right doses. "It's really important to get help separating fact from fiction," Manson says, "because there's so much hype about dietary supplements, and very often the benefit is quite limited." Quite limited indeed, at least for the general population, according to the evidence so far. Manson is lead author on  a sweeping new overview of vitamin and mineral supplements in the journal JAMA, and here's how she sums it up: The key message is that for most of the population, it's best to get these vitamins and minerals from the diet, from foods. That's where they're best absorbed, and they're in the optimal biological ratios. However, some subgrou

Kelly Guthrie Raley February 15 at 8:25am  ·  Eustis, FL  ·  Okay, I’ll be the bad guy and say what no one else is brave enough to say, but wants to say. I’ll take all the criticism and attacks from everyone because you know what? I’m a TEACHER. I live this life daily. And I wouldn’t do anything else! But I also know daily I could end up in an active shooter situation. Until we, as a country, are willing to get serious and talk about mental health issues, lack of available care for the mental health issues, lack of discipline in the home, horrendous lack of parental support when the schools are trying to control horrible behavior at school (oh no! Not MY KID. What did YOU do to cause my kid to react that way?), lack of moral values, and yes, I’ll say it-violent video games that take away all sensitivity to ANY compassion for others’ lives, as well as reality TV that makes it commonplace for people to constantly scream up in each others’ faces and not value any o

"First, even if we could make every AR-15 on Earth disappear, it wouldn’t end school shootings. It wouldn’t even make them less lethal. Remember that Virginia Tech, which was far more deadly than Parkland, had a shooter who carried two pistols. There wasn’t a single semi-automatic rifle in his arsenal. Ban the AR-15, and nothing will change. Second, there’s the fact that even if it  did  end school shootings forever, it wouldn’t end the march of gun control. They wouldn’t leave us alone. They continue to try and take away our God-given right to keep and bear arms. For all their talk about “common sense gun control,” we know what the endgame is. They, as a group, want them all. So despite the atrocity that occurred on Wednesday in Parkland, Florida, we’re not going to give up any ground. We’re not going to budge. We’re not going to give even one more inch of ground. Especially since so few of these people who are demanding action are willing to talk about our mental health s

To rational beings, the ideologies and policies of the liberals around the world are often close to insanity. These people are not happy unless they and all others are miserable. They want everything banned or mandated. They want everyone equal in misery. The thing they crave the most is power to control people at every level of their lives, from cradle to grave and even beyond. Emotion is their trigger, and, believe me, this trigger can be a destructive force without a bang. Michael Synder of the Economiccollapseblog.com has written a very telling piece about the hate of the left. Please read and ponder his thoughts! "Why do liberals seem to hate just about everything that is good and true and right about this country?  Earlier today I was writing  an article  about Kathy Griffin and the hate-filled ideology that she represents, and it got me thinking about a lot of things.  I truly believe that her now infamous photograph will turn out to be a defining moment in American

SEAL Sniper Reveals Shooting Essentials As with many skills, if you don’t have the proper foundation, you will limit yourself and ultimately be ineffective. This couldn’t be truer when it comes to shooting. If you don’t start with the proper technique, you will develop bad habits through muscle memory and hinder your ability to be a “top shot.” This is why I love firearms instruction with someone who has never fired a gun before. It gives me a blank canvas to instill in them good habits before they even pull the trigger. As with many things tactical, if you ask 10 “operators,” you will likely get 10 different opinions on what’s best. I teach the   Isosceles technique , which is used by a vast number of special ops forces. It’s the most stable, aggressive and ideal method for firing while moving.   Get a (Good) Grip Grab your handgun with your dominant hand. Ensure the web of your hand is centered on the rear of the grip. DO NOT gorilla grip/white-knuckle your handgun. This

First the dems said Trump was unfit with no definition of “fit!” Then they said Trump rigged the election, and this failed. Then they said the economy was crash, and this failed. Then they tried to impeach him, and this failed. Then they said his campaign accepted foreign national money, and this failed. Then they said he wasn’t smart enough, and this has failed. Then they said he committed treason, and this failed. Then they wanted his tax returns, and this failed. Then they said he was a woman hate,r and this failed. Then they said he had affairs, and this failed. Then they said he was a barbarian, and this failed.  Then they said his business interests were violating his position as President, and this failed. Then they said he was guilty of sexual harassment, and this failed. Then they said he colluded with Russia, and this failed. Then they said he played too much golf, and this failed. Then they said he was a racist, and this failed. Then they said

" The memo shows the Obama administration used the phony "dirty dossier" as an excuse to turn loose the government's spy apparatus on its political opponents - and then lied about it. Here are the key findings recounted in the memo.  Key Revelations from Declassified Memo  • The Steele dossier formed an essential part of a FISA application targeting Carter Page.  Former FBI Deputy Director McCabe confirmed that no surveillance warrant would have been sought from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC) without the Steele dossier information. • FBI and DOJ obtained from the FISC an initial warrant, and three FISA renewals.  o Then-FBI Director James Comey signed three FISA applications in question on behalf of the FBI, and former Deputy Director Andrew McCabe signed one.  o Then-Deputy Attorney General (DAG) Sally Yates, then-Acting DAG Dana Boente, and DAG Rod Rosenstein each signed one or more FISA applications on behalf of DOJ.  • St

If you put all the pieces together here's what you get.  The DNC rigs the Democratic Primary Election against Bernie Sanders so Hilliary can win the nomination.  Obama's administration starts to request surveillance on Trump, his family, his transition team, and anyone associated with him.  Donna Brazil gives Hilliary the questions to a debate.  The DNC pays Christopher Steele to come up with a smear dossier about Trump.  The mainstream media releases a taped conversation about Trump talking about grabbing women parts.  After all of this, Trump still wins the General Election.  Obama orders an investigation into Russia meddling in our elections.  Obama changes Executive Order 12333 to allow more agencies to have access to surveillance data.  The Democratic Party comes up with a scandal that Trump Colluded with Russia to win the election with no evidence or proof.  This wild claim is backed up by the mainstream media.  The fake dossier dupes the FISA court

The Pathetic Orchestra of Silence: On January 20, 2018, the Democrats proved just where they stood on the important issues as President Trump informed America of the State Of The Union. Actually, they proved where they didn’t stand. They didn’t stand for jobs, companies returning to America from overseas, restoring America’s economy, increase wages, and lowering of unemployment. They didn’t stand for being tough on terrorists or those captured overseas as “unlawful enemy combatants.”   They didn’t stand for the Islamic State group being decimated by our military forces. They didn’t stand for making health care cheaper or more accessible for Americans who have seen their options so severely restricted by Obamacare, a law passed solely by them.   They didn’t stand for enforcing America’s immigration laws, the wall, ending chain migration, and immigration based on skill. Many of them did not stand for the wilingness of Trump to co promise on citizenship for over 1 m

“ Televised scenes of devastation and displaced families after natural disasters, such as hurricanes Harvey and Irma, usually move millions of Americans to help by donating to relief organizations. Unfortunately, these events also bring  out lots of scammers, who are constantly getting more organized and methodical. For example, the websites they use might have been registered months prior, experts say.  “Every year when the National Weather Service releases the names of that year’s upcoming storms, people start registering online domains so they can scam people,” says Walt Green, former director of the Justice Department’s National Center for Disaster Fraud. The same goes for every kind of disaster. The scams go beyond web domains asking for money. They also work through email and social media.  Never give money through a link that someone emails you or provides via social media, no matter how much you may trust that person. He or she could have been scammed too.
