Does gender matter? Was it so long ago? Back in 2005? It seems like only yesterday when Lawrence H. Summers stood up at a national conference and said that women would never be any good at math and science because they were women. Let no one suggest women were and are the victims of discrimination. Larry's view was they are simply not good enough. Not surprisingly, there was a firestorm of debate and the poor man lost his job. Fortunately there were others prepared to hire him, so he did not have to suffer too long. This whole gender issue and all the others issues like race are caught up in a trap where political correctness prevents a proper discussion. Just as it would be interesting to do some research into why the top 1% achievers in math is essentially white male, so it would be useful to know whether different races are more likely to be affected by different diseases. We know the possibility is real because of diseases like Thalassemia, but nothing is built into research to test this on a more general basis.

Minimize your Pain, Maximize Painkiller Power First, commiserations for your pain. But congratulations on getting the right painkiller. To make sure you get the most from it and make sure it has the best chance of easing your suffering, since some pain is less responsive than other pain to painkillers, use this guide. These steps to success and precautions will help to maximize the effects of your medication so that you don't have to suffer and you don't have to needlessly increase the dose. Finding the Right Dose The proper dose size is found by doctors. First, they give you a small dose and then increase it bit by bit until you start to feel the pain release. It is important that you are completely honest here. This process is designed to give you the most effective dose size while reducing your chance of nasty side effects. It also give you some space to increase your doze size as you build tolerance to the medicine. Why don't they just start you on an estimated dose size? People react differently to every medication. If you were to have an allergy, the reaction could be less if the dose size is small. Furthermore, because science has no real accurate way to measure pain...more
