Unable to Keep an Erection

Most men at some points in their lives experience erectile problems. If you are only to sleep at night when it occurs, that is not much of a problem. But if you are about to make love and your manhood is limp, there lies the problem.

The condition may be brought about by psychological stress.

There are various treatments available. Testosterone supplements work in cases when the disorder is hormonal deficiency in origin. Another method, which is rather controversial, is the use of penis pumps, a popula sex toy. Vacuum pumps promote engorgement by allowing negative pressure to draw blood into the penis and keep it there. For more information about these sex toys you can read it on a sex toys blog. Another method as a last resort could be surgery to implant artificial rods into the penile tissue.

Subjects remembered the story, but without any emotional depth.

Such findings suggest an obvious potential therapeutic benefit: If people who have just experienced a traumatic event could be given a memory-dampening drug like propranolol, they might avoid suffering later psychic damage, such as post-traumatic stress disorder or PTSD.

Two subsequent studies reinforce the potential efficacy of using beta blockers to blunt memory. In a 2002 pilot study, Roger Pitman, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard University, recruited 31 people from the emergency room of Massachusetts General Hospital who had just been involved in a traumatic event, typically an automobile accident.

Some of the study volunteers were treated with propranolol for 10 days after the trauma; some received a placebo. Evaluated one month later, none of the subjects treated with propranolol had a stressful physical reaction to re-creations of their traumatic event, while six of the 14 subjects treated with a placebo did.

Memory-altering drug research is currently focused on propranolol, one of several so-called beta blockers widely used to reduce blood pressure, treat abnormal heart rhythms and prevent migraines. The brand name for propranolol is Inderal. Other beta blocker brand names are Inderide, Innopran XL, Betachron E-R, Kerlone, Lopressor, Tenormin, Toprol XL, Visken and Zebeta.

Beta blockers work by "blocking" the stimulative influence of stress hormones – specifically adrenaline – upon the body, relaxing blood vessels and slowing nerve impulses inside the heart.

Experiments indicate propranolol also blocks the effect of adrenaline upon areas of the brain involved in memory formation, including the amygdala. It seems to disconnect emotion from memory.

Most daily events are quickly forgotten. They are memories writ in pencil, never made permanent. But some events provoke an emotional response. In these moments of joy or sadness, terror or surprise, the body is flooded with stress hormones released by the adrenal glands, which are located above the kidneys. This is part of the ancient "fight or flight" response. Hormones like adrenaline wash over the amygdala – an almond-shaped portion of the brain that processes emotion, most notably fear. Adrenaline tells the amygdala that what's happening at that moment is worth remembering, that this is a memory to be writ in neurological ink.

if you can prevent the system from working, give a drug that blocks the action of stress hormones (upon the amygdala and brain), then you may be able to prevent the influence of making stronger memories," said James L.

Christian Books Reviews

clipper's remarks: It depends where you are in your life and what type of guidance you’re after. There are books dedicated to men, women, prosperity, healing…just about any topic you can think of.

Clip Source: christianbooksreviews.com

Christian literature may be new to you yet you could be going through a tough time right at the moment. Check the reviews of some of the more popular titles for a start and once you become more familiar with this niche then you’ll be amazed how one book leads you to another.

But the important thing to remember is, no one Christian piece is going to provide the solution you need on a one off basis but will make you sit and think about yourself and your life and the magic happens in their ability to suddenly make something that looked impossible look clear. And it could be just a small adjustment in the way you look at things that can make all the difference.

Practical advice relayed in a calm and easy to understand fashion is the cornerstone of the power of Christian literature. There are many issues affecting us today from economic struggle to sex to stress – the faith to carry on and ride out these storms of distress can be found in the pages of both paid and free Christian books.

Veteran therapy dogs

On this Veteran’s Day, let us also say “thank you “ to our dogs that serve our military veterans. Our vets return from combat suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), seizures, blindness, and missing limbs.

These dogs intuitively know when a vet suffering from PTSD is getting ready to have a traumatic flashback and can calm the vet and bring their attention back to the here and now. They can warn a vet suffering from a TBI when he/she is about to have a seizure so the vet can put him/herself in a safe place or lie down on the ground.

Veteran’s Helping Heroes provides funding to help train dogs for the American Vet Dog Program. It costs $50,000 for each dog. It takes two years to train a dog and the dog will retire after 8 or 9 years.

What a wonderful program to serve our vets! Happy Veteran’s Day

"The emphasis is on getting it all taken care of, any aches and pains, pack it all in" before January, says Dan Miller, publisher at the Heartland Institute, a right-leaning think tank. Mr. Miller, 64 years old, says he and his wife used up their 2009 deductible with a colonoscopy and an endoscopy. Now, the couple is taking care of other expensive procedures before year end. Those include a bladder-stone removal for him, and, for her, a stress test and an MRI for a nagging foot injury.

We Must Be On Guard For Extremism

clipper's remarks: "When dealing with soldiers far from their homes and families and subject to the greatest imaginable stress, the Army needs to be on the watch for the predatory inroads of any form of political or religious extremism -- whether it be the jihadism to which Hasan was drawn or the Christian identity nonsense that inspired Timothy McVeigh."

Clip Source: www.latimes.com

There is a profound difference between watchfulness and a witch hunt.

In the aftermath of the Ft. Hood shootings, that's a crucial distinction, though nothing the authorities -- and particularly the U.S. Army brass -- have said so far has done much to help people make it

federal anti-terrorism operations intercepted 10 to 20 e-mails between Hasan and Anwar al Awlaki

On Monday, he praised Hasan as a "hero" on his website and urged other American Muslim soldiers to emulate his example.

Clearly, the FBI screwed up here, but so did the Army.

The Army's apparent willingness to ignore this may have had less to do with promoting "diversity" or "multiculturalism" than it did with the service's large financial stake in Hasan's medical training and the hard time the military has in recruiting competent mental health professionals.

there is a need for perspective that doesn't impugn the more than 3,000 Muslim soldiers now serving their country in the Army
