///////////////////The Deepest Place on Earth
The Marianas Trench is the deepest place on earth, deeper than Mt. Everest is high. The trench is where the ocean floor disappears into the center of the earth. The pressures at this depth are 17 times greater than what it takes to crush a nuclear submarine. Only two men have ever been down the Trench, fewer than have set foot on the moon. Follow the daring missions into the abyss and explore the extraordinary geology that has created this deep scar along the ocean floor.

Date Published: Monday, June 15th, 2009


Singulair (montelukast ) and other asthma medications known as leukotriene modifiers will carry a new precaution about their association with neuropsychiatric events, the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) has announced. According to the agency, it has received reports of agitation, aggression, suicidal thinking, suicide, depression, insomnia and irritability in patients taking leukotriene modifiers like Singulair.

Leukotrienes are chemicals the body releases in response to an inflammatory stimulus, such as when a person breathes in an allergen. In addition to Singulair, other leukotriene modifiers include Accolate (zafirlukast) and Zyflo and Zyflo CR (zileuton).
