WAVERLY, TN, December 09, 2010 (Press-News.org) In a straightforward decision, a Federal Appeals Court has upheld a preliminary injunction against the FDA to stop the seizure of the electronic cigarette as it enters the country to suppliers that retail them to the smoking public.
The electronic cigarette or e cigarette as it is called by its users has found a home among smokers who have been looking for a smarter alternative in the tobacco market. The following is now so strong that e cigarette cafe's are popping up in major cities around the U.S.
This group of "vapers" are a loyal group that have lobbied lawmakers, written letters, made phone calls and have actively defended the product online in a collective effort to save the invention that many call a life changer.
The electronic cigarette is a simple product that mimics traditional tobacco cigarettes in look, feel, and sensation that a smoker gets from a tobacco cigarette, but it lacks well over 95% of the chemicals that traditional cigarettes emit. It has a battery that looks like the tobacco end of a regular cigarette and a refillable, replacable cartridge with liquid nicotine is attached to the battery and it completes the look of a regular cigarette by having the appearance of the cigarette filter. There is an atomizer that holds the battery and refillable cartridge together as it produces the vapor from the nicotine liquid.
At retail level they are sold in what are called electronic cigarette starter kits that have two complete e cigarettes, chargers and e cigarette refill cartridges and a nice box to keep them in. Some e cigarette starter kits even come with a charging case that you can recharge the batteries for the e cigarettes on the go, making them and even better value to today's smoker.

Little did Rich Tola know exactly one year ago today he would premiere a film, start a foundation to help women and children of domestic violence, make a video encyclopedia of yoga poses throughout the streets of Hollywood, and release Rich Tola's 15 Minute Fat Burning Workouts (www.RichTola.com). And if you ask Tola, he'll tell you that his fat burning workouts are fit for a King. Or a Queen. Or anyone else in the world, for that matter. "Anyone can do them. Whether you're in shape or 50 pounds overweight," states Tola. "Each 15 minute full body workout is filled with ...
Bid Bullion Celebrates Official Release of Silver Keiser
2010-12-09
Bid Bullion releases its limited edition silver bullion to commemorate Max Keiser and his efforts in increasing the prices of silver.
BidBullion.com, a new penny auction selling precious metals at pennies on the dollar, has released a limited edition silver bullion by the name of the Silver Keiser.
This move couldn't have been made at a better time. On November 11th, 2010, Max Keiser, a finance critic and former stockbroker, told the listeners of the Alex Jones show that they should start "Google Bombing" the term "Crash JP Morgan, Buy Silver" to increase the rankings ...
Using new materials to make more reliable nanoelectromechanical systems
2010-12-08
Given their outstanding mechanical and electrical properties, carbon nanotubes are attractive building blocks for next-generation nanoelectromechanical devices, including high-performance sensors, logic devices, and memory elements. However, manufacturing challenges associated with creating well-ordered arrays of individual carbon nanotubes and the nanotube-devices' prevalent failure modes have prevented any large-scale commercial use.
Now, researchers at Northwestern University, the Center for Integrated Nanotechnologies at Sandia and Los Alamos National Laboratories, ...
Social relationships in animals have a genetic basis, UCLA biologists report
2010-12-08
The ability to tolerate aggression is partly genetic, UCLA life scientists report in the first study to demonstrate a genetic component to a social network trait in a non-human population.
"The ability to tolerate aggression is passed on across generations; there is genetic variation in the ability to tolerate aggression," said the study co-author Daniel T. Blumstein, professor and chair of ecology and evolutionary biology at UCLA.
Blumstein, a leader in the field of applying social network statistics to animals, and his colleagues studied four groups of yellow-bellied ...
Tobacco cessation medication may reduce hospitalization for heart attacks
2010-12-08
The use of tobacco cessation medication in a population may lead to reduced hospital admissions for heart attacks and for coronary atherosclerosis within the two years after use according to a study by Thomas Land and colleagues from the Massachusetts Tobacco Cessation and Prevention Program, Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School Boston, USA, and published in this week's PLoS Medicine. The study found no reduction in hospitalizations for other diseases, in the same two year period.
In July 2006, the Massachusetts Medicaid program (MassHealth) adopted ...

Second-hand smoke increases risk of invasive meningococcal disease in children
Children exposed to second-hand smoke are more likely to get invasive meningococcal disease than children who are not exposed, reports a study from Chien-Chang Lee at the Harvard School of Public Health (Boston, USA) and colleagues published in this week's PLoS Medicine. The authors also found a possible association of second-hand smoke exposure with invasive pneumococcal disease and Haemophilus influenzae type b.
By reviewing and analysing published studies (30 case-control and 12 cross-sectional ...
Including smoking cessation program with treatment for PTSD shows higher rate of quitting
2010-12-08
Among smokers with military-related posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), integrating smoking cessation treatment with mental health care for PTSD resulted in higher rates of prolonged smoking abstinence, compared to referral for assistance with quitting smoking, according to a study in the December 8 issue of JAMA.
Nicotine dependence is more common among individuals with mental illness. "Posttraumatic stress disorder, a prevalent mental disorder, is highly associated with smoking (45 percent) and unsuccessful quit attempts. Individuals with PTSD smoke more heavily than ...
Detection of cardiac biomarker associated with structural heart disease, increased risk of death
2010-12-08
With the use of a highly sensitive test, detection of the blood biomarker cardiac troponin T, a cardiac-specific protein, is associated with structural heart disease and an increased risk of all-cause death, according to a study in the December 8 issue of JAMA.
Cardiac troponin T (cTnT) is a preferred biomarker for the diagnosis of heart attack, and increasingly it has been recognized that elevated troponin levels may be detected in several chronic disease states, including coronary artery disease (CAD), heart failure, and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Some research has ...
Use of low-dose aspirin associated with improved performance of test for detecting colorectal cancer
2010-12-08
Use of low-dose aspirin prior to a newer type of fecal occult blood test is associated with a higher sensitivity for detecting advanced colorectal tumors, compared to no aspirin use, according to a study in the December 8 issue of JAMA.
"Screening for colorectal cancer (CRC) and its precursors by fecal occult blood tests (FOBTs), which has been shown to reduce CRC incidence and mortality in randomized trials, is widely recommended and applied in an increasing number of countries. Screening is mostly done in age groups in which use of low-dose aspirin for primary or secondary ...
New blood test could detect heart disease in people with no symptoms
2010-12-08
DALLAS – Dec. 7, 2010 – A more sensitive version of a blood test typically used to confirm that someone is having a heart attack could indicate whether a seemingly healthy, middle-aged person has unrecognized heart disease and an increased risk of dying, UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers have found.
In a study available online and in the Dec. 8 print issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association, researchers found that a new, highly sensitive test for a protein called cardiac troponin T (cTnT) could detect the protein in about 25 percent of blood ...
