Prisoners Of Conscience
Prisoners of conscience is when some on will get put in prison for simply
speaking his or her mind against their government or leader. Or you can be a prisoner of
conscience in other ways, perhaps by making a sign or raising a flag, either way you are
stating your opinion and getting in trouble and being thrown into prison for it. Here in
the Unites States Of America, we do not have to dace this problem. We are allowed to
speak our minds, and you hear this a lot on T.V and in the Media in general. But if you
take a look around at the other countries, it is a whole different story. Other countries
governments such as a communist, dictator or junta, maybe even a theocracy will
imprison you for such talk. Lets take China for example, they are supposedly the holder
of the most prisoners of conscience in the world! China is a communist, and as all other
communist they do not accept talk about their government that is slander, or rude or is
disapproving of their leader or way of ruling. There is also North Korea, who if you
even dare to speak out against Kim jong-il you will be arrested, if not killed for
your opinion.
Lately, in Indonesia, Filep Karma, and Yousak Pakage, were arrested for raising a
star flag, a symbol of peace. They are now prisoners of conscience and sadly, have to
serve a decade in prison. This was a very peaceful way of stating their opinion it was
speechless. But it was considered not agreeing with their ruler and or government
which must be illegal over there. The flag was only meant for peace.
To resolve this unfortunate issue there are petitions and organizations being
Made. One is Freedom Now. This is an organization for prisoners of conscience to once
again live their life out side of a cell. Gered Genser is the founder of this organization
of freedom now and have already been able to free some prisoners of Conscience with
their work. This organization is both legal and public. The people that work there are
volunteers. This organization is also non-profit. Another organization is also one called
Amnesty International. This as well as Freedom now is all focused on freeing the ones
Whom are brave enough to speak for in which they believe. This organization, as well as
Freedom now, has freed many former prisoners on conscience. These are the primary

What is Narcolepsy?
Narcolepsy is a chronic neurological disorder caused by the brain's inability to regulate sleep-wake cycles normally. At various times throughout the day, people with narcolepsy experience fleeting urges to sleep. If the urge becomes overwhelming, individuals will fall asleep for periods lasting from a few seconds to several minutes. In rare cases, some people may remain asleep for an hour or longer. In addition to excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS), three other major symptoms frequently characterize narcolepsy: cataplexy, or the sudden loss of voluntary muscle tone; vivid hallucinations during sleep onset or upon awakening; and brief episodes of total paralysis at the beginning or end of sleep. Narcolepsy is not definitively diagnosed in most patients until 10 to 15 years after the first symptoms appear. The cause of narcolepsy remains unknown. It is likely that narcolepsy involves multiple factors interacting to cause neurological dysfunction and sleep disturbances.
Is there any treatment?
There is no cure for narcolepsy. In 1999, after successful clinical trial results, the FDA approved a drug called modafinil for the treatment of EDS. Two classes of antidepressant drugs have proved effective in controlling cataplexy in many patients: tricyclics (including imipramine, desipramine, clomipramine, and protriptyline) and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (including fluoxetine and sertraline). Drug therapy should be supplemented by behavioral strategies. For example, many people with narcolepsy take short, regularly scheduled naps at times when they tend to feel sleepiest. Improving the quality of nighttime sleep can combat EDS and help relieve persistent feelings of fatigue. Among the most important common-sense measures people with narcolepsy can take to enhance sleep quality are actions such as maintaining a regular sleep schedule, and avoiding alcohol and caffeine-containing beverages before bedtime.
On July 17, 2002, the FDA approved Xyrem (sodium oxybate or gamma hydroxybutyrate, also known as GHB) for treating people with narcolepsy who experience episodes of cataplexy. Due to safety concerns associated with the use of this drug, the distribution of Xyrem is tightly restricted.
What is the prognosis?
None of the currently available medications enables people with narcolepsy to consistently maintain a fully normal state of alertness. But EDS and cataplexy, the most disabling symptoms of the disorder, can be controlled in most patients with drug treatment. Often the treatment regimen is modified as symptoms change. Whatever the age of onset, patients find that the symptoms tend to get worse over the two to three decades after the first symptoms appear. Many older patients find that some daytime symptoms decrease in severity after age 60.
What research is being done?
The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) and other institutes of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) conduct research into narcolepsy and other sleep disorders in laboratories at the NIH and also support additional research through grants to major medical institutions across the country. The NINDS continues to support investigations into the basic biology of sleep, including the brain mechanisms involved in generating and regulating sleep. Within the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, also a component of the NIH, the National Center on Sleep Disorders Research (NCSDR) coordinates Federal government sleep research activities and shares information with private and nonprofit groups.

Yes, I'm like 100% sure of that. I never had it though 0_o so I'm not sure why Natsume would have said I did. Natsume has had this for a month now and it's not meningitis (sp?) so she's fine, somewhat and I know she'll get better!

Natsume has something different, not meningitis (sp?) and she might be back next week or it could take as long as the end of September for her to get well
