WorldNetDaily: Bin Laden hideout like Disney World?: "SEARCH FOR OSAMA

Afghan authorities look to make
Tora Bora hot tourist destination

If Orlando, Las Vegas or the Caribbean aren't exciting enough for your next vacation, how about considering the hideout of Osama bin Laden?

Osama bin Laden

The idea is not a joke and is being pushed by Afghan authorities looking to revive the local tourism industry by promoting the terror mastermind's mountain lair at Tora Bora.

'We have plans to make a tourist site at the Tora Bora caves. Many Americans wish to go there,' Dr. Hassamuddin Hamrah, the man in charge of the concept, told the London Telegraph.

'Our main problem is lack of budget so we are approaching the private sector. We request that anybody, any company, who is interested should contact us.'

Hamrah thinks the name recognition of the site, along with the remains of Russian tanks and crashed helicopter gunships from the 1980s, will prove to be a hit with potential visitors.

But he also complained that scrap merchants from nearby Pakistan were undermining the idea by absconding with some of the military hardware.

'We wished to keep the artillery, tanks, aircraft and also the military posts and front lines. But the Pakistanis have frustrated our plans,' Hamrah told the paper. 'They were coming and buying the metal scraps so a lot of people took these things to Pakistan. The things we thought existed have been taken away.'

Three Japanese tour-company executives have already scoped out the site, located high in the White Mountains near Jalalabad.

Tora Bora's complex of caves and bunkers were created as a mountain fortress by the Mujahadeen in the 1980s, and was expanded in the '90s at bin Laden's expense. In addition to barracks and extravagant living quarters, it's reported to have tunnel systems able to conceal armored vehicles.

The U.S. pounded the site with Daisy-Cutter fuel bombs in October 2001 as part of Operation Enduring Freedom to flush out bin Laden and his comrades.

Osama escaped and remains on the loose, possibly near the Afghanistan-Pakistan border."

Insulin Resistance- cause of ADD, diabetes, narcolepsy, etc etc

Insulin Resistance Insulin Resistance Have you been diagnosed with clinical depression? Heart disease? Type II, or adult, diabetes? Narcolepsy? Are you, or do you think you might be, an alcoholic? Do you gain weight around your middle in spite of faithfully dieting? Are you unable to lose weight? Does your child have ADHD? If you have any one of these symptoms, I wrote this article for you. Believe it or not, the same thing can cause all of the above symptoms. I am not a medical professional. I am not a nutritionist. The conclusions I have drawn from my own experience and observations are not rocket science. A diagnosis of clinical depression is as ordinary as the common cold today. Prescriptions for Prozac, Zoloft, Wellbutrin, etc., are written every day. Genuine clinical depression is a very serious condition caused by serotonin levels in the brain. I am not certain, however, that every diagnosis of depression is the real thing. My guess is that about 10 percent of the people taking ...

Could Narcolepsy be caused by gluten? :: Kitchen Table Hypothesis

Kitchen Table Hypothesis from www.zombieinstitute.net - Heidi's new site It's commonly known that a severe allergy to peanuts can cause death within minutes. What if there were an allergy that were delayed for hours and caused people to fall asleep instead? That is what I believe is happening in people with Narcolepsy. Celiac disease is an allergy to gliadin, a specific gluten protein found in grains such as wheat, barley and rye. In celiac disease the IgA antigliadin antibody is produced after ingestion of gluten. It attacks the gluten, but also mistakenly binds to and creates an immune reaction in the cells of the small intestine causing severe damage. There is another form of gluten intolerance, Dermatitis Herpetiformis, in which the IgA antigliadin bind to proteins in the skin, causing blisters, itching and pain. This can occur without any signs of intestinal damage. Non-celiac gluten sensitivity is a similar autoimmune reaction to gliadin, however it usually involves the...

Blue-blocking Glasses To Improve Sleep And ADHD Symptoms Developed

Blue-blocking Glasses To Improve Sleep And ADHD Symptoms Developed Scientists at John Carroll University, working in its Lighting Innovations Institute, have developed an affordable accessory that appears to reduce the symptoms of ADHD. Their discovery also has also been shown to improve sleep patterns among people who have difficulty falling asleep. The John Carroll researchers have created glasses designed to block blue light, therefore altering a person's circadian rhythm, which leads to improvement in ADHD symptoms and sleep disorders. […] How the Glasses Work The individual puts on the glasses a couple of hours ahead of bedtime, advancing the circadian rhythm. The special glasses block the blue rays that cause a delay in the start of the flow of melatonin, the sleep hormone. Normally, melatonin flow doesn't begin until after the individual goes into darkness. Studies indicate that promoting the earlier release of melatonin results in a marked decline of ADHD symptoms.
