Why did he pull down the shutters in the first place? He survived the racismgate and arbotiongate. Did he run out of things to be dull about?

From what I've read, he got bored with the story and making his characters believable and decided to start from scratch with a group of cardboard cutouts with little or personality of their own.

There's a 7 bedroom house for sale for £137k. Downside, is it is in bradford. I'm unsure if I could overcome my prejudices to move there.

EDIT: A three ebd terrace for £61k, I probably could.

His characters were dicks though. At least this way there might be a few jokes again.

The Sour Sop or the fruit from the graviola tree is a miraculous natural cancer cell killer 10,000 times stronger than Chemo.

Why are we not aware of this? Its because some big corporation want to make back their money spent on years of research by trying to make a synthetic version of it for
sale. So, since you know it now you can help a friend in need by letting him know or just drink some sour sop juice yourself as prevention from time to time. The taste is not bad after all. It’s completely natural and definitely has no side effects. If you have the space, plant one in your garden.

The other parts of the tree are also useful.

The next time you have a fruit juice, ask for a sour sop.

How many people died in vain while this billion-dollar drug maker concealed the secret of the miraculous Graviola tree?

This tree is low and is called graviola ! in Brazil, guanabana in Spanish and has the uninspiring name “soursop” in English. The fruit is very large and the subacid sweet white pulp is eaten out of hand or, more commonly, used to make fruit drinks, sherbets and such.

The principal interest in this plant is because of its strong anti-cancer effects. Although it is effective for a number of medical conditions, it is its anti tumor effect that is of most interest. This plant is a proven cancer remedy for cancers of all types.

Besides being a cancer remedy, graviola is a broad spectrum antimicrobial agent for both bacterial and fungal infections, is effective against internal parasites and worms, lowers high blood pressure and is used for depression, stress and nervous disorders.

If there ever was a single example that makes it dramatically clear why the existence of Health Sciences Institute is so vital to Americans like you, it’s the incredible story behind the Graviola tree..

The truth is stunningly simple: Deep within the Amazon Rainforest grows a tree that could literally revolutionize what you, your doctor, and the rest of the world thinks about cancer treatment and chances of survival. The future has never looked more promising.

Research shows that with extracts from this miraculous tree it now may be possible to:

Attack cancer safely and effectively with an all-natural therapy that does not cause extreme nausea, weight loss and hair loss
Protect your immune system and avoid deadly infections
Feel stronger and healthier throughout the course of the treatment
Boost your energy and improve your outlook on life
The source of this information is just as stunning: It comes from one of America ‘s largest drug manufacturers, th! e fruit of over 20 laboratory tests conducted since the 1970's! What those tests revealed was nothing short of mind numbing… Extracts from the tree were shown to:

Effectively target and kill malignant cells in 12 types of cancer, including colon, breast, prostate, lung and pancreatic cancer..
The tree compounds proved to be up to 10,000 times stronger in slowing the growth of cancer cells than Adriamycin, a commonly used chemotherapeutic drug!
What’s more, unlike chemotherapy, the compound extracted from the Graviola tree selectivelyhunts
down and kills only cancer cells.. It does not harm healthy cells!

The amazing anti-cancer properties of the Graviola tree have been extensively researched–so why haven’t you heard anything about it? If Graviola extract is

One of America ‘s biggest billion-dollar drug makers began a search for a cancer cure and their research centered on Graviola, a legendary healing tree from the Amazon Rainforest.

Various parts of the Graviola tree–including the bark, leaves, roots, fruit and fruit-seeds–have been used for centuries by medicine men and native Indi! ans in S outh America to treat heart disease, asthma, liver problems and arthritis. Going on very little documented scientific evidence, the company poured money and resources into testing the tree’s anti-cancerous properties–and were shocked by the results. Graviola proved itself to be a cancer-killing dynamo.
But that’s where the Graviola story nearly ended.

The company had one huge problem with the Graviola tree–it’s completely natural, and so, under federal law, not patentable. There’s no way to make serious profits from it.

It turns out the drug company invested nearly seven years trying to synthesize two of the Graviola tree’s most powerful anti-cancer ingredients. If they could isolate and produce man-made clones of what makes the Graviola so potent, they’d be able to patent it and make their money back. Alas, they hit a brick wall. The original simply could not be replicated. There was no way the company could protect its profits–or even make back the millions it poured into research.

As the dream of huge profits evaporated, their testing on Graviola came to a screeching halt. Even worse, the company shelved the entire project and chose not to publish the findings of its research!

Luckily, however, there was one scientist from the Graviola research team whose conscience wouldn’t let him see such atrocity committed. Risking his career, he contacted a company that’s dedicated to harvesting medical plants from the Amazon Rainforest and blew the whistle.

Miracle unleashed
When researchers at the Health Sciences Institute were alerted to the news of Graviola,! they be gan tracking the research done on the cancer-killing tree. Evidence of the astounding effectiveness of Graviola–and its shocking cover-up–came in fast and furious….

The National Cancer Institute performed the first scientific research in 1976. The results showed that Graviola’s “leaves and stems were found effective in attacking and destroying malignant cells.” Inexplicably, the results were published in an internal report and never released to the public…
Since 1976, Graviola has proven to be an immensely potent cancer killer in 20 independent laboratory tests, yet no double-blind clinical trials–the typical benchmark mainstream doctors and journals use to judge a treatment’s value–were ever initiated….
A study published in the Journal of Natural Products, following a recent study conducted at Catholic University of South Korea stated that one chemical in Graviola was found to selectively kill colon cancer cells at “10,000 times the potency of (the commonly used chemotherapy drug) Adriamycin…”
The most significant part of the Catholic University of South Korea report is that Graviola was shown to selectively target the cancer cells, leaving healthy cells untouched. Unlike chemotherapy, which indiscriminately targets all actively reproducing cells (such as stomach and hair cells), causing the often devastating side effects of nausea and hair loss in cancer patients.
A study at Purdue University recently found that leaves from the Graviola tree killed cancer cells among six human cell lines and were especially effective against prostate, pancreatic and lung cancers. Seven years of silence broken.


Is it wrong of me to instantly think it is bullshit?

I do like the idea of Rubicon being able to cure cancer, though. It might mean we'd get 2 litre bottles of the more delicious flavours, too.

All day at work I have been fine. Until about 20 minutes ago. I picked MrsA up from her work at half four and she had to go somewhere to put a deposit down for a works meal. There, I had a pint of 'Black Gold' from the Copper Dragon brewery. We left and went home via the shops and for dinner I had hot dogs with onions and mustard. I also had some crisps, carrots abd hummus. One of these things has made me sneeze loads abd my eyes water. Stupid allergues, eh? I wish I knew what it was that has done this. I suspect the beer

I'm not allergic to cottages. I just hate you.

I want my Beex Illuminati hat.

There's a whole BeeX Illimuniati suit you can wear. And only other Illimuniati members get to see how amazing it is.

It's actually too good, hence the reaction. Hypersensitivity throwing up false positives. Like jumping on the floor when some one is patch clamping in the next room.

No, that's a rubbish immune system. "Too good" is just another way of saying "bad".

Second Born is just as bad. The bugger's allergic to almost everything to a greater or lesser degree (including up to "fatal" with coconuts and hazelnuts and such). Except dogs. He's allergic to cats, but not dogs.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO"

The cottages are in October. Fact.

I suggest someone organises another Manchester Meet, maybe in March.

Make it so.

I struggle to be in a room with cats. I have to take loratidine 20 minutes prior to going to someone's house then about once every ninety minutes or so afterwards. This ends up with the unfortunate effect of, when mixed with alcohol, my falling asleep by about half nine.

Ugh, guy on a US forum I frequent talking about the "fascinating situation" of the EDL and Islam in Britain, and how it's so darn interesting that they're "just local guys" who are "concerned about the failure of Muslims to integrate" blahblahfuckingblah. Where do I begin, and can I do it without using the words "naive" and "twat"...

(Not entirely rhetorical, that. I'm normally a big ol' fucking olive branch, but all I've got right now are insults.)

Not really. I've been on immune suppressants for years, and I still get allergic reactions to all sorts of stuff.

He said jumping on the floor, not jumping on a grenade.

Sometimes it is better to bowl underarm to Kissyfur when it comes to science.

I had a holiday romance but one swallow doesn't make a Summer and her name was Mae so it all got confusing as this was in December.
