The problem, reporters explain, is the vast number of Americans addicted to prescription pain meds like OxyContin, many of whom discover heroin to be both cheaper and easier to obtain than the prescription opioid drugs to which they initially became addicted.<br /><br />That’s accurate as far as it goes. But by following the trail further, we arrive at a place far more shocking and consequential. We discover that not only has the traditional distinction between illegal “street drugs” and legal “therapeutic prescription drugs” become so blurred as to be almost nonexistent, but between America’s twin drug epidemics – one illegal, the other legal – well over 70 million Americans are using mind-altering drugs. And that number doesn’t include abusers of alcohol, which adds an additional 60 million Americans. So we’re really talking about 130 million strung-out Americans. How is this possible?<br /><br /><b><a href="http://www.wnd.com/2014/02/70-million-americans-taking-mind-altering-drugs/">Read more </a></b>....<br /><br /><b>My Comment:</b> 130 million Americans abuse drugs and alcohol ?!?!?!?! A part of me says that such a number is not possible .... but when I reflect on the people that I know ..... hmmmm .....<br /><br /><b>Update</b>: With such stats I guess one should also not be surprised when some are openly wondering if President Obama<b><a href="http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2014/02/was_obama_stoned_during_bob_costas_interview.html"> is one of them</a></b>.

With the help of a new app you can make a contribution of unused computing power of your smartphone and tablet. This app works when your device is associated to Wi-Fi, battery is close to full-charge and plugged in, so it won’t use your data plan and battery. One more important thing is that scientists can use it only when, smartphone is not in use.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />When joint with the additional power of thousands of other “donated” devices, the set of connection of phones create a quasi-supercomputer to be had for use by scientist. This project is named <a href="mailto:FightAids@Home">FightAids@Home</a> by scientists. This project is run by the Olson Laboratory and The Scripps Research Institute and is powered by IBM’s World Community Grid. Many other scientific research projects are also supported  by the World Community Grid but it is first of its type.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />The non-profit research institute cuts down the cost of research and also the time that  takes to get result by using the crowed supported network work as a super computer. Working at  a supercomputer  is expensive for the no profitable research institute because the charges is $1,000 per hour. Scientists are searching for new drugs that can be helpful to fight against HIV virus. <br />According to IBM spokesperson  AriFishkind “When we first sat down with researchers, they proposed projects that were far too modest because that's what has been available to them, now they can access a great deal more power.”</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />Before the project <a href="mailto:FightAdis@Home">FightAdis@Home</a>, the scientists could use network power of desktop and laptops only.  Drugs using in disease ‘schistosomiasis’ is recognize in just one year with the help of smartphone network and expected time for this was 30 year.  Every one should understand  importance of this type of projects  and come ahead to support  them.</div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://plus.google.com/100638775997274345522" rel="author">Anil Swami</a></div></div>
