Many mainstream physicians reject even this middle-of-the-road position, condemning Weil's books as the worst kind of medical malarkey, filled with sloppy science and tent-show miracles. What Weil sees as medicine, says Dr. Graham Woolf, a gastroenterologist at ucla-Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, "would never pass as a research protocol." Others are less troubled by Weil's science than by Weil himself, particularly the controversial positions he took earlier in his career, such as his perceived tolerance of marijuana and other recreational drugs...
WASHINGTON, D.C.: A Supreme Court decision made it more difficult for the Justice Department to reject election law changes that weaken minority voting power.

Applewhite wanted to manipulate people and make them do things for him through pity. He told his followers to reject their families because he wanted total control over their hearts, minds and eventually their souls. What scares me most is the fact that there are more Marshall Herff Applewhites out there. What are we doing about it? ISABELLE WEERAWARDENA, age 17 Yakkala, Sri Lanka...
