| 11/28/2006 - Weird, Wild, and Wacky, Election Day Edition |
| Like I relay every month, here are some of the stories you just have to hear, but that may not warrant a full expose in the Daily Dose. As promised, a few of these relate to recent elections. |
 |
| 11/24/2006 - The real story behind "battered woman's syndrome" |
| It has been a long time since I got much flak from readers about anything in the Daily Dose. I was starting to think I'd gone a bit soft, in fact. |
|
| 11/21/2006 - Matters of life and limb |
| In the last Daily Dose, I wrote about the possible future of robotic "humans." One very likely facet of that rapidly developing technology is prosthetics that can be controlled by the mind. |
|
| 11/21/2006 - Hoosier baby's doctor? |
| Just because I haven't spilled a lot of ink lately about medical errors doesn't mean they've stopped happening... |
|
| 11/20/2006 - I, Robot Soldier? |
| Coming soon: The six million dollar fighting man? |
|
| 11/17/2006 - Black eyes for Big Pharma - sort of |
| You know I love passing along word of lifesaving alternative therapies - but do you know what really makes my day? Being able to report to you that Big Pharma has gotten a bit of a comeuppance. |
|
| 11/17/2006 - A payoff disguised as a payback |
| As you may actually HAVE heard in the mainstream media, Pharmaceutical giant GlaxoSmithKline is being forced to shell out more than $40 million to settle out of court a class-action lawsuit brought against them by at least 40 U.S. states. |
|
| 11/14/2006 - PETA grilled on its "chicken little" cancer clucking |
| You know I'd rather eat a pound of nails than defend any part of the fast-food or mainstream restaurant business, but fair is fair... |
|
| 11/13/2006 - Predicting more addicting |
| I reported on the untimely and unfortunate death of Daniel Smith, son of Anna Nicole Smith. The role his prescription antidepressants played in his death has not yet been pinpointed, but play a role they did. A deadly one, as it turns out. |
|
| 11/07/2006 - Will Americans embrace tomorrow's soulless steaks? |
| From time to time, I've written to you about news on the cloning and genetic engineering fronts. It's time for another one today. But first, I need to make sure you know the distinction between the two. |

|
| 11/06/2006 - Cell Phones: Cell Killers? |
| As you may know, I've been one of the more vocal critics in the past about the excessive usage of cell phones these days - especially among kids. |
|
| 11/06/2006 - Who's minding the "minders?" (part two) |
| In the last Daily Dose, I filled you in on the ongoing saga of deposed FDA head Lester Crawford - specifically, his multiple federal conflict-of-interest allegations and his guilty plea-down of them to a pair of measly misdemeanor charges. |
