Anecdotes from the work world, however, suggest that it's the overachievers who tend to seek further enhancement. Dr. Gaby Cora, a psychiatrist and life coach from Florida, says her patients are like Bob. "They are extremely smart and very successful. We're not talking about someone struggling to perform. I do organization, planning and prioritizing - and lifestyle changes like exercise, relaxation, better sleep, nutrition - with patients first. But when I need to prescribe, I do.

There's even some evidence to suggest that establishing nut-free zones or nut-free schools may be detrimental to children's health, and increases their risk of developing nut allergies.

(Other accounts of the attack suggest Mossad injected the poison into his ear.) The would-be assassins were apprehended, and an outraged King Hussein brokered a deal: their release in exchange for the antidote, which saved Mashaal's life. The attack helped vault Mashaal toward the top of Hamas's leadership structure...
