Ms Roberts, now Ms Giuffre, may have set a case
precedent valuing her sexual ordeal with Jeffrey Epstein (and/or others) @
$500,000 dollars. Though, District
Judge Lewis Kaplan had a difficult decision to make, the extant
agreement may only be enforced by Jeffrey Epstein while he is alive. It
may thus be that the terms of such deal are null and void concerning a
third party newly released from the Agreement. This was the decision by Judge
Kaplan, the case can proceed. Clearly, the sum accepted
previously, does not take into account the additional mental distress of
the victim, arising from the media coverage and refusal of the royal to
accept even partial responsibility. Although, this is largely self
inflicted, in Ms Giuffre seeking to sensationalize her claims using the
media.
TWO
TIER SYSTEM - Teenage pregnancies in the UK are (of course) all
illegal. Yet there are no prosecutions. The law as it stands is quite
clear, and applies to all ages across the board. A child under 13 is
incapable of giving consent. Thus, when a girl under 13 becomes
pregnant, she must have been raped. See the Sexual
Offences Act 2003. The age of consent in the UK is 16, meaning that
Prince Andrew would not have committed a crime, unless he paid for sex
and it was against Ms Giuffe's will, or she was trafficked and Mr
Mountbatten-Windsor knew about the arrangement.
During his interview
with Emily Maitliss for BBC Newsnight, the then Prince Andrew
claimed he could not sweat following his tour of duty during the
Falklands war. Yet, when asked to provide evidence in support of such
assertion, he has been unable to do so. We wonder if medical records
relating to royals in combat are routinely shredded?
The
inability to sweat is commonly called anhidrosis. Anhidrosis can develop on its own or as one of several signs and symptoms of another condition, such as diabetes or skin injury.
If suffering from such condition, a person would normally talk to their doctor.
The former Duke of York is typically pictured in a suit or a uniform, suggesting that he
does not, or was not, experiencing difficulty in controlling his temperature.
If there was such a problem, it might be that the sufferer would wear
light, loose fitting clothing, in an attempt to control body
temperature.
"I didn't sweat at the time because I had suffered what I would describe as an overdose of adrenalin in the Falkland's War when I was shot at."
According
to The Sun, it was one of the most bizarre parts of the Duke of York's car crash interview with BBC Newsnight's Emily Maitlis in November 2019.
Some of the denials appear on the face of it to be ridiculous:
ANDREW DENIED BEING CLOSE FRIENDS WITH GHISLAINE MAXWELL
Prince Andrew has admitted befriending paedophile Epstein but denies being close pals with Ghislaine Maxwell.
Giuffre's legal team has alleged: "Prince Andrew was a close friend of Ghislaine Maxwell, a British socialite who spent years overseeing and managing Epstein's
sex trafficking network, and actively recruited underage girls, including Plaintiff."
The Duke's lawyers said he "denies" being close friends with Maxwell, and admits "he lacks sufficient information to admit or deny the remaining allegations".
It comes after it was reported Maxwell visited Buckingham Palace up to four times in one day.
Speaking on the ITV documentary Ghislaine, Prince Andrew and the Paedophile, former royal bodyguard Paul Page said: "From the way [Maxwell] was allowed to enter and exit the palace at will, we suspected that she may have had an intimate relationship with Prince Andrew.
ANDREW DENIED BEING A FREQUENT GUEST OF EPSTEIN
The Duke has denied that he was "a frequent guest in Epstein's various homes around the world, including New York City," where he has been accused of sexually abusing Giuffre.
In his 11-page "answer and affirmative defenses" to Giuffre's civil complaint, the Duke said he met Epstein "in or around 1999".
Andrew was pictured with Epstein in New York's Central Park in 2010 and admitted staying with him for several days despite knowing he was a convicted sex offender.
When questioned about why he stayed at a paedophile's mansion by Emily Maitlis on BBC's Newsnight in 2019, he replied: "It was a convenient place to stay."
During this stay, many young women were reportedly seen coming and going from the house, and literary agent John Brockman claimed to have seen the prince getting a foot massage from a young Russian woman, alongside Epstein, something he has denied.
ANDREW DOES NOT KNOW IF HE INVITED EPSTEIN TO BEATRICE'S 18TH BIRTHDAY
In August 2006, Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson's eldest daughter Beatrice celebrated her 18th birthday with a Victorian-themed "coming-of-age" masked ball.
Pictured at the party together were Maxwell, her on-off partner Jeffrey Epstein, and now-disgraced Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein.
Beatrice wore a £10,000 dress designed by Georgina Chapman, who at the time was dating the sex offender film producer.
Chapman married Weinstein in 2007 but separated from him in 2017 after more than 90 women came forward with accusations of rape, assault, or sexual harassment against him.
Epstein was photographed at the Windsor Castle bash, despite the fact he had already been charged with procuring a minor for prostitution a month earlier.
Andrew has not denied inviting Epstein to Princess
Beatrice's birthday but said he lacks sufficient information to know if he did.
ANDREW DOES NOT KNOW WHETHER HE EMAILED MAXWELL ABOUT GIUFFRE IN 2015
Giuffre's legal team allege Prince Andrew emailed Ghislaine Maxwell in early 2015 after she had publicly accused the Duke of sexually abusing her.
Andrew is reported to have written: "Let me know when we can talk. Got some specific questions to ask you about Virginia Roberts."
Responding, Andrew's lawyers claim he "lacks sufficient information" to admit or deny whether or not he sent this email.
ANDREW CLAIMS GIUFFRE AND OTHER WERE RESPONSIBLE FOR HER OWN ALLEGED ABUSE
The prince has refuted Giuffre's major claim of "sexual abuse" and "rape" when she was "under the age of 18".
His lawyers have stated: "Assuming, without admitting, that Giuffre has suffered any injury or damage, Giuffre and/or others, who are not Prince Andrew, contributed in whole or in part to the alleged damage."
Andrew's legal team also listed "consent" and the "doctrine of unclean hands" - alleging Giuffre acted unethically related to the accusations - among his defences.
"Giuffre's alleged causes of action are barred in whole or in part by her own wrongful conduct," they wrote.
LAUGHING
BOY - You can laugh David, but we wonder if his Gestapo like
approach to justice might be linked in some way with his affair in
office. Blunkett overhauled 'Victorian' sex offences legislation in
2002, which modernised the sex offences laws dramatically in relation to
same-sex and related issues by sweeping away the archaic laws governing homosexuality
criminality, while tightening protections against rapists, paedophiles and
other sex offenders.
The act closed a loophole that had allowed those accused of child rape
to escape punishment by arguing the act was consensual and a new offence
of adult sexual activity with a child, which covers any sex act that
takes place between an adult and a child under 16, was introduced. It
was supported by all major political parties in the UK. Hence, they all
advocated denying human rights protections, in recognising buggery
as being legal. Interesting offset, don't you think! Meaning, it is okay
to have anal sex, but you will be fu*_-d in law up the ass in losing
your right to a fair trial. Should the ass
you are fu*-ing turn out to be incapable of giving consent, or you are
being set up for a nice damages claim!!!
In
making such changes, the 'legal' butcher eliminated a defendant's right to a fair
hearing under Article
6, in an obsession bordering on a national eugenics programme,
with a Hitler
like fervour, dressed up as a vote catching appeasement of women's
rights activists who want no sex in
the workplace and to emasculate the opposite sex as to the point where
they are Under the Thumb, in that there is no evidence required to
obtain a conviction, the mere say so of a woman who
might be lying through her teeth in the dock, is sufficient to send a
good man down for a very long time for a crime that he may not have
committed. In the UK a man accused of a sex crime is guilty until proven
innocent, rather than innocent until proven guilty. Police officers
investigating crime scenes will then not gather inconvenient evidence to
any allegation, further distancing any person so accused from having any
possible remedy, or from being able to defend themselves. Why? Because
in England, the police control the crime scene. So make the running, and
they have conviction targets, so cut corners.
Hence, it is vitally important that there is no conflict of interest, as
per Rex
v Sussex Justices ex parte McCarthy 1924.
You
may be better off with an artificial companion. Sex
robots and humanoid companions are now quite popular. They are a
whole lot safer. A robot cannot accuse you of rape or sodomy. Though,
one might imagine, the civil servants then trying to charge a sex tax.
Especially the female civvies, who no doubt will hate the idea of losing
control over men. Indeed, such expressions have already been aired by
the media. Robots could undermine the flesh trades, in the process,
making a whole lot of people happier. So, why not prescribe them on the
National Health? Replace marriage, with a different kind of agreement,
should a couple decide to procreate. In order for this to work, robots
would have to be very appealing to the end users. It's all down to the
curves and bumps in the right places - emulating evolution of course.
The birth rate may fall dramatically among advanced thinkers, while
those less able to afford automaton lovers, would no doubt continue like
rabbits as before. Thus to reduce populating
growth, we need to make mechanized
companions cheaper. And then there is AI.
Where
most people in the street will be legally
aided when it comes to defending a charge of rape the level playing
field that the State is supposed to ensure as "equality of
arms" is suddenly sent to the wall for a firing squad execution of
any person accused - but mainly men of course because in Britain nobody
would believe that a woman could rape a
man. Thus, any trial becomes a witch
hunt. if you are innocent you float and guilty you drown. Either way
you die, by way of a public crucifixion
- as character assassination and reputational damage. No matter if you
are a war hero, inventor, climate crusader, royal, or whatever.
The fallout is likely to mar the Queen's
Platinum Jubilee celebrations in 2022.
RANDY
ANDY
Andrew went on to say that this condition has since cleared up. However, there are at least five occasions from around this time where the Duke was either photographed apparently sweating or was recorded as perspiring by witnesses.
The Mayo Clinic does not recognise “an overdose of adrenaline” as a trigger.
However, the Cleveland Clinic says “damage to the sweat glands from trauma” can occur.
“[Anhidrosis] can have external causes, including trauma to the skin or the nerves to the skin, and also certain medications,” said Prof Dorothy Bennett, from St George's Hospital in London.
“Both of these are general possibilities during service in the Falklands, although I don’t know whether any specific medications given to servicemen can do this, nor whether Andrew suffered any such physical trauma at that time.”
Bennett speculated that the extreme cold temperatures Prince Andrew is likely to have endured while serving could trigger skin or nerve damage. However, she stressed that this was unclear.
Andrew joined the Navy in 1979. In April 1982, he sailed on the HMS Invincible to the South
Atlantic to regain the Falkland Islands.
During the conflict, the prince reportedly took part in several missions, including
Anti-Submarine Warfare, search and rescue, and casualty evacuation.
He returned to Portsmouth in September 1982. The Falkland Islands reportedly reach lows of 0°C (32°F) in June, according to Climates To Travel.
While it may sound farfetched, Bennett added the Prince’s explanation could hold some truth.
“Prince Andrew said his lack of sweating followed high adrenaline levels associated with being shot at,” she said.
“This is indeed a known mechanism.”
Scientists from the University of Florida, Gainesville, found the phenomenon can occur in horses when moved to hot climates.
Sweating is stimulated in the farm animals via the release of adrenaline, which circulates in their blood.
“Flaws in a sequence” could trigger anhidrosis in horses.
The scientists claim the “most likely possibility” is “inadequate sweat gland response due to habituation of receptors to a high circulating level of”.
“Habituation means here a normal response of sweating in response to epinephrine (adrenaline) is regulated downwards if there is excessive stimulation of the cellular receptor for epinephrine,” Professor Bennett said.
"I don't know why I've collected that title because I don't... I never have really partied."
Chinawhite nightclub, London, 2000
Pictures from July 2000 show Prince Andrew leaving Chinawhite nightclub in London's Soho late at night.
He has a blue shirt unbuttoned and appears sweaty and disorientated.
The legendary London nightclub, a favourite haunt of celebrities over the years and his own nephew Prince Harry, played host to the 40-year-old Duke of York.
Tramp, London, 2001
Undoubtedly the most damaging picture for Prince Andrew is the one allegedly taken of him after leaving Tramp nightclub in London with Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, and Virginia Giuffre.
Giuffre claimed in an interview with the BBC's Panorama that Andrew was "the most hideous dancer I've ever seen in my life".
Saint Tropez, 2007
In a picture from a party in July 2007, a shiny-faced, wide-eyed and grinning Andrew is seen receiving a hug from American socialite Chris Von Aspen as she tries to lick him.
Other pictures taken on the same night show the prince with his arms around Von Aspen's waist and neck as she dances in a white mini dress.
Billionaire's party, Saint Tropez, 2007
Another set of snaps from the same year show the Duke dancing with Canadian socialite Pascal Borubeau at a party thrown by
billionaire Tony Murray in the French resort.
He appears sweaty and wild-eyed as he poses with his daughter, Princess Beatrice, who would have been around 18-19 at the time.
A former Saint Tropez partygoer told the Mail Online in 2019: "These were really crazy years for Andrew. He was clearly having a full-blown midlife crisis.
"He would have been 47 or 48 at the time, divorced from Sarah
Ferguson, and basking in the attention he got from young women."
Playing golf in Buckingham Palace
Former Royal protection officer Paul Page claimed he saw the prince sweating while he practised his
golf swing in the garden at
Buckingham
Palace.
Page, who was later convicted for his part in a £3m fraud, also said Andrew made officers collect his golf balls while they were supposed to be guarding him.
ALLAN STARKIE
However, Andrew's claims that he couldn't sweat have been backed up by someone who knew him at the time.
Former US intelligence officer Allan Starkie recalled a night in 1992 when the Duke and Duchess of York visited Annabel's nightclub in Mayfair, central London, just weeks before they announced their separation.
"It was extremely warm at Annabel's that night and Andrew was wearing a blue suit of heavy wool," Starkie recalled last week.
"The evening featured almost constant dancing, and I watched with amazement as he returned from each dance, escorting rather moist partners, yet always bone dry himself.
"It was extraordinary. The rest of us were perspiring madly, but he didn't seem to have a bead of sweat on him."
In 2019, a former aide claimed it was actually hair loss treatment that the Duke was undergoing which prevented him from sweating.
DR SARAH JARVIS
Despite the aide's claims, Dr Sarah Jarvis, GP and Clinical Director at Patient.info, told The Sun Online there were a limited number of medications that could stop sweating.
She is quoted as saying: "There is a long list of drugs that can cause anhidrosis, an inability to sweat. These include treatments used to manage the side effects of medication for severe mental illness, along with treatments for epilepsy, high blood pressure, glaucoma, osteoporosis and mountain sickness.
"But on the whole very few people taking these drugs develop anhidrosis.
"There are only a couple of medications licensed in the UK for managing male pattern hair loss: one is a tablet and one is a topical lotion.
"Neither of them have anhidrosis as a side effect, to my knowledge."
And Dr Hilary Jones is quoted as saying: "I cannot think of any reason whatsoever why treatment for hair loss, whether it involved medications or transplants, would interfere with the normal ability to sweat."
ANHIDROSIS
SYMPTOMS
Signs and symptoms of anhidrosis include:
- Little or no perspiration
- Dizziness
- Muscle cramps or weakness
- Flushing
- Feeling hot
A lack of perspiration can occur:
- Over most of your body (generalized)
- In a single area
- In scattered patches
Areas that can sweat may try to produce more perspiration, so it's possible to sweat profusely on one part of your body and very little or not at all on another. Anhidrosis that affects a large portion of your body prevents proper cooling, so vigorous exercise, hard physical work and hot weather can cause heat cramps, heat exhaustion or even heatstroke.
There are many possible causes. Some people are born with the condition, others develop it later in life.
Other known causes of anhidrosis include:
- Skin damage from burns, radiation therapy, or pore-clogging diseases such as psoriasis.
- Damage to the sweat glands from surgery, trauma or scar formation.
- Nerve damage caused by diabetes, alcoholism, and Guillain-Barre syndrome.
- Inherited disorder of the metabolic system (Fabry disease).
- Connective tissue disorders, such as systemic sclerosis, systemic lupus erythematosus, Sjogren syndrome.
- Autonomic nervous system disorders, such as Ross syndrome, and Harlequin syndrome.
- Nerve conditions (neuropathies), such as diabetic neuropathy, paraneoplastic neuropathy, inherited neuropathy, amyloid neuropathy, lepromatous neuropathy.
Central nervous system diseases and conditions, including multiple system atrophy, dementia with lewy bodies, Parkinson's disease, stroke and spinal cord disease.
EXCESSIVE
DEHYDRATION
Many medications interfere with sweat gland function. Anticholinergic medications are the most common drug-related cause of anhidrosis. Examples of anticholinergics include glycopyrrolate (Cuvposa®, Robinul®), doxepin (Silenor®, Zonalon®), atropine (Atropen®), cyproheptadine and hyoscyamine (Levsin/SL®, Hyosyne®). Other drug classes and examples include:
Tricyclic antidepressants (amitriptyline).
Antihistamines (diphenhydramine [Benadryl®, Nytol®]).
Bladder antispasmodics (oxybutynin [Ditropan XL], tolterodine [Detrol®]).
Antipsychotics / antiemetics (chlorpromazine, clozapine [Clozaril®], quetiapine [Seroquel®]).
Antiepileptics (topiramate [Topamax®], zonisamide [Zonegran®]).
Antihypertensives (clonidine [Catapres®]).
Opioids (fentanyl, morphine, hydrocodone, oxycodone).
Neuromuscular paralytics (botulinum toxins).
If you experience these symptoms in a heated environment, get out of the heat immediately and move into a shaded area or indoors, preferably with air-conditioning. Loosen your clothes and, if possible, apply cool damp cloths to your body. Seek medical attention if your symptoms don’t get better as you cool down.
Are there serious complications that can result from anhidrosis?
Severe cases of anhidrosis, where most or all of your body doesn’t sweat, may result in serious heat-related illnesses including:
Heat exhaustion: Signs and symptoms are weakness, nausea, rapid heartbeat after strenuous activity in hot weather. Treatments include moving to a cooler place, drinking water, applying cool compresses or taking a cool shower.
Heatstroke: This is an extremely dangerous, life-threatening condition in which your body temperature rises to 103 degrees Fahrenheit or higher. Heatstroke can cause confusion, loss of consciousness, coma and even death. Call 911 or take the person to the hospital. Move into shade, remove unnecessary clothing and cool the person (use ice packs, sponge with cool water, apply cool wet towels, spray down their body with a hose).
Your healthcare provider will ask you questions about your lack of ability to sweat. You may also be asked to undergo a sweat test. In this test, you are coated with a powder that changes color where you sweat. You are moved into a chamber to make you perspire to see which parts of your body sweat.
You may have a skin biopsy performed to look for nerve fiber damage to determine a possible cause of anhidrosis. You may have other tests to try to determine other underlying causes of your anhidrosis.
CAN ANHIDROSIS BE
PREVENTED?
Anhidrosis can’t be prevented but you can do things to keep yourself from overheating, including:
- Wear loose-fitting, light-colored clothes. Wear a wide-brimmed hat.
- Move to or stay in a cool (air conditioned) place or move into the shade.
- Take a cool shower or sit in a bath of cool water.
- Stay hydrated. Drink plenty of fluids, especially water or sports drinks.
-
Don’t drink alcohol or caffeine-containing beverages (coffees, teas, colas, chocolate).
- Move slowly, don’t overexert, don’t do heavy exercise.
- Carry a water bottle with you everywhere you go for emergency cooling

COMBAT STRESS REACTION (CSR)
Combat Stress Reaction is most frequently known as shell shock or battle fatigue. It results in a range of adverse behaviors as a result of stress from battle. Some universal symptoms are exhaustion, decrease in responsiveness, hesitancy and uncertainty, feeling like you are disconnected and inability to focus. Combat stress reaction is generally short-term and should not be confused with acute stress disorder, or post-traumatic stress disorder, even though some of the symptoms are similar in nature.
Reactions to a combat experience can be emotional, physical, mental and even have behavioral reactions too. All reactions will differ from one person to the next. More importantly, it is imperative to normalize your reactions given your experiences instead of being overly critical of yourself if you are experiencing combat stress.
What are the key symptoms of combat stress, and what resources are available to help?
Emotionally you may:
- Feel frustrated
- Experience mood swings
- Become more fearful and have anxiety
- Experience feelings of sadness, hopelessness
You may even have nighmares and flashback too Some physical reactions may include:
-
Increased body aches and pains
- Trouble sleeping: either too much or too little
- You could have panic attack symptoms like, heart pounding, sweating and trouble breathing
- Changes in your appetite: eating more than usual or eating too little
- Woman may experience changes in their menstrual cycle
Mental reactions include:
The inability to focus and concentrate
Obsessive thoughts about the stressful event(s)
Increase in thinking about death and dying
Making impulsive decision or even showing a lack of judgment
Making self- critical remarks
Behavioral Reactions include:
- Increased alcohol use or other substances
- Compulsive behavior like checking doors and locks for safety
- Increased anger: confronting others, throwing, breaking things
- Isolating from others
- Decreased sexual activity

CONTROLLING STRESS SWEAT
Stress is bad enough on its own. Unfortunately for most of us, however, stress usually also brings with it stress sweat, which tends to be particularly stinky, staining, and embarrassing. Given that there are two to four million sweat glands distributed all over our bodies and that stressful situations are seemingly ubiquitous in modern life, trying to avoid stress sweat might seem like a futile endeavor – but (thankfully) it isn’t. There are simple ways you can control stress sweat even when the @#%S is hitting the fan.
But first, what makes stress sweat different from exercise- and heat-induced sweat?
The majority of the sweat glands in our skin are “eccrine” sweat glands. These glands are responsible for most of our heat-related and exercise-related sweating and secrete an odorless, clear fluid (made mostly of water and salt) to help control temperature by promoting heat loss through evaporation. Eccrine glands are found in large numbers on the soles of the feet, the palms, the forehead, cheeks, and in the armpits.
Dreaded “stress” sweat, on the other hand, comes primarily from another type of sweat gland called an “apocrine” gland. Apocrine glands are found mostly in the armpits and genital region (but there are some on the scalp, too) and exist near dense pockets of hair follicles. They produce a thick fluid that they empty into the hair follicle just before it opens onto the skin’s surface. While apocrine sweat is initially odorless, it doesn’t evaporate as quickly as eccrine sweat and can develop an odor when it combines with bacteria that normally inhabits the surface of our skin. The odor has that characteristic smell that we often call “body odor.”
While it may smell, stress/apocrine sweat doesn’t actually produce that much wetness–at least not like the amount caused by eccrine sweat. When the body is reacting to an emotion, like anxiety, stress or excitement, apocrine sweat is released from apocrine glands. Something interesting about stress sweat is that it’s immediate, whereas exercise or heat-related sweat can take longer to kick-in. Scientists aren’t sure why apocrine glands produce odor beyond the process described above, but there might be an evolutionary and protective reason behind it.
Animals tend to emit an odor when they’re stressed, too. That odor acts as a signal to peers that something dangerous or scary is going on and they should react accordingly. If this theory is true, it makes sense that stress sweat would be immediate and not delayed. Note that stressful situations will also increase eccrine sweating, but it’s not as immediate or as pungent. While most of us recognize that stress sweat is a “thing,” we usually just suffer through it. This is a shame because there are ways to help control stress sweat and doing so can, in turn, make life a whole lot less stressful:
SIX WAYS TO
CONTROL STRESS SWEAT - SEPTEMBER 19 2017
1) Big picture: manage your stress and learn how to control it to prevent or limit stress sweating in the first place. Think mindfulness, meditation, and life balance, and when you’ve figured that out, please let
us know.
2) Use an antiperspirant to prevent sweat-related wetness. Antiperspirants work on both types of sweat glands. Apply at night for best efficacy. At bedtime you’re typically sweating the least, which gives an antiperspirant’s active ingredients time overnight to form the superficial plugs (that help limit sweating) before you start sweating again in the morning. If you apply antiperspirant when you are already sweating, your sweat will just wash away the product before it can start to work. And, yes, you can use antiperspirants on other body areas besides your underarms. Just test it on a small spot first to make sure it doesn’t cause you irritation–especially on sensitive parts. As always, talk to your doctor or dermatologist about any concerns.
3) No luck with the regular stuff? Try a stronger antiperspirant like Certain Dri, which is actually formulated for those suffering from extreme, clinical
sweating - a condition called hyperhidrosis.
4) Also use a deodorant to fight stress sweat odor–or use a combination antiperspirant and deodorant for convenience and cost savings.
5) Trim and groom your hair where apocrine sweat and odor is problem. This won’t limit the sweating, but it can help your antiperspirant and deodorant to reach your skin more thoroughly and, therefore, do their jobs more effectively. Trimming hair also prevents sweat and oil from hanging around and cuts down on the surface areas on which bacteria and sweat can react (remember, it’s that reaction that leads to body odor.)
6) There are other, more sophisticated treatments to stop sweating and the odor linked to it, too. One such innovation is the medical device miraDry, which studies show reduces body odor by destroying sweat glands and hair follicles via mircowaves. You need to go to a doctor’s office for the miraDry treatment, but the results are permanent and will stop sweating, odor and hair growth in the treated area.
CHARACTERISTIC CHEMICAL SIGNATURE FOR CHRONIC FATIGUE
SYNDROME (CFS)
Researchers at the University of California San Diego School of Medicine, using a variety of techniques to identify and assess targeted metabolites in blood plasma, have identified a characteristic chemical signature for the debilitating ailment and an unexpected underlying biology: It is similar to the state of dauer, and other hypometabolic syndromes like caloric restriction, diapause and hibernation.
Dauer is the German word for persistence or long-lived. It is a type of stasis in the development in some invertebrates that is prompted by harsh environmental conditions. The findings are published online in the August 29 issue of PNAS.
"CFS is a very challenging disease," said first author Robert K. Naviaux, MD, PhD, professor of medicine, pediatrics and pathology and director of the Mitochondrial and Metabolic Disease Center at UC San Diego School of Medicine. "It affects multiple systems of the body. Symptoms vary and are common to many other diseases. There is no diagnostic laboratory test. Patients may spend tens of thousands of dollars and years trying to get a correct diagnosis."
As many as 2.5 million Americans are believed to have CFS. It most often afflicts women in their 30s to 50s, though both genders and all ages can be affected. The primary symptom is severe fatigue lasting at least six months, with corollary symptoms ranging from muscle pain and headaches to sleep and memory problems.
"Despite the heterogeneity of CFS, the diversity of factors that lead to this condition, our findings show that the cellular metabolic response is the same in patients," said Naviaux. "And interestingly, it's chemically similar to the dauer state you see in some organisms, which kicks in when environmental stresses trigger a slow-down in metabolism to permit survival under conditions that might otherwise cause cell death. In CFS, this slow-down comes at the cost of long-term pain and disability."

YAHOO NEWS 18 NOVEMBER 2019 - PRINCE ANDREW CLAIMS A CONDITIONS STOPS HIM SWEATING - DOES THE DISORDER EXIST?
Adrenaline drives the “fight or flight response” that causes our heart rate to fasten, pupils to dilate and senses to become heightened when faced with danger.
Dr Christopher Rowland Payne, of The London Clinic, told the Mail on Sunday: “A very stressful event may result in all sorts of different consequences.
“In battle situations people can, of course, be extremely psychologically traumatised.
“It is certainly possible to develop psychogenic anhydrosis.”
Prof John Hawk of King’s College argued, however, this would likely lead to someone excessively sweating, rather than stopping altogether.
“It is certainly possible to have problems with sweating but an overdose of adrenaline would be more likely to make a person sweat more, not less,” he told the Express.
“Maybe there was a supplementary event that happened which he cannot remember.”
BALMORAL
OR IMMORAL - You would be persuaded by this picture, that Epstein
and Ms
Maxwell, were good friends of the Duke. On the other hand, Prince
Andrew was always entertaining big business, in promoting Great Britain
Ltd. Much the same as Queen Elizabeth brokered foreign deals on HMY
Britannia.
The
Prince may not remember the 17 year old Virginia Roberts, but unless
this photograph is a fake (doubtful - it must have been checked out) he
did meet the young lady at some point - even if only posing at a drinks
party, and Ghislaine Maxwell was at this meeting. One question we would
ask is how do we know the age of the claimant from this picture? She
could easily be 18 or older. Or she may have claimed to be over 18, for
Ghislaine to have allowed Virginia to have been photographed with the
Duke. No doubt, testimony from Ms Maxwell will clear that up. And where
and when was the picture taken, and by whom? You can imagine that with
US State laws varying, and this picture looking for all the world like
London, where the age of consent is 16, the precise details relating to
the taking of this picture are extremely important. It might be worth
checking passports, etc. Not that we are saying anything did or did not
happen between the Prince and Ms Roberts. For the sake of argument, if
some did take place (that the Duke cannot recall) and it was in London,
then no crime had been committed, except where trafficking
and prostitution is concerned.
You can marry a girl in Spain and
Tahiti at 13 (we think). Hence, any prosecution would need to be very
sure of dates and places to begin mounting an investigation. It would
not be fair to even interview the Prince, until the facts had been
established, for fear of trying to trick him into something he could not
possibly remember. We know of a case where penetration had been alleged
during a police interview, but the evidence told only of natural marks
and a hymen that could not be opened [even] with labial traction. A
so-called child specialist gave evidence at trial, that the natural
marks could only be explained by penetration. Legal Aid restrictions
prevented the defendant in that case from instructing a specialist.
Sussex police allowed the jury to hear misleading evidence, and the man
was convicted on naturally occurring marks, found in females of all
ages. British justice is such that despite other discrepancies being
identified, such as a diary being attributed by the trial judge to the
defendant, when it belonged to a psychiatric nurse, an appeal has never
made it back to the Courts. Europe sent back a claim after 4 years,
suggesting the wrongly convicted man had a domestic remedy. On that
basis, good luck to anyone facing trial in the UK. At least you have
unlimited funds for your legal team in the USA.
NOW
IS THE TIME FOR CHANGE - Under the present system where the Head of
State is a royal, and there is no written
constitution, politicians like
David Cameron and Boris
Johnson can lie
with impunity - even to Queen
Elizabeth - and not face penalties. Police
officers can shoot unarmed civilians and not be sent to prison, and
planning officers can deceive the Secretaries of State and High Court
judges, and not be prosecuted. In effect, it is alleged that there is little justice in
England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. We aver that such
machinations are costing the ordinary taxpayer, Treasury and the Crown (being the
state) significant sums of money, while adding to the UK's carbon
footprint. Hence, the country is not being run effectively by the at
present;
defective administration, not to serve its citizens, but to sustain and
profit itself. Unlike the US
Constitution of 1791 that exists to serve
the people. Some people advocate abolition of the honours
system, where it is alleged that some awards are in connection with
preserving the status quo, as in whitewashing statistics and the like,
to mask the level of corruption in UK courts. But certainly, war
criminals who invade another country based on faulty and misleading
intelligence. Britain is held to be the most corrupt country in the
world when it comes to laundering
of drug money.
