You've found the blog of Jere Matlock, a web designer and writer. This journal is mostly about writing, web design and getting sites to the top of the search engines (SEO is my business). It is also full of opinions and observations about pretty much everything. If these things are not of interest to you, feel free to go now. Go on, shoo!
Still here? If you have something to say, post a comment or send me an email.
By the way, if you feel like taking offense at something posted on this site, go right ahead, it won't bother me a bit. Kingsley Amis has a nice quote about that, in which I take solace and some pride when the flames arrive:
"If you can't annoy somebody, there's little point in writing."

This is a short entertaining video from CCHR about the difference between a Disease and a Psychiatric Disorder
Love the “cha-ching” at the end. And how you can’t tell the psychiatrists from the drug company reps without looking closely.
So the next time a psychiatrist tells you your kid needs a psych drug to handle a “brain chemistry imbalance”, ask him exactly what lab test he used to discover this brain chemistry imbalance.

This heartwrenching video about Baby Indiana, born with breathing problems caused by her mother taking the antidepressant Effexor during pregnancy, points people to the Unite For Life website. The video is a photo documentary of the problems leading to the death of this beautiful baby girl.
The purpose of the insidiously named “Mother’s Act” is to screen all pregnant women, all new mothers, and all infants from birth, for “mental health” problems. The only remedy the psychs have is these horrific drugs like Effexor, which cause birth defects and death. The underlying purpose …

Very interesting article on Advertising Age detailing letters sent to top drug makers telling them to stop ads on Google and Yahoo touting the benefits of their drugs, without also describing potential risks. How are they going to do that in the constraints of a Google Adwords ad? They aren’t.
Reporter Marissa Miley says:
“The FDA called out nearly every major drug maker, including Bayer, Biogen Idec, Boehringer Ingelheim, Cephalon, Eli Lilly, Forest Laboratories, Genentech, GlaxoSmithKline, Johnson & Johnson, Merck, Novartis, Pfizer, Roche and Sanofi-Aventis, in addition to nearly 50 drug brands. The letters, which

As this video compilation of newscasts in Florida shows, prescriptions for antipsychotic drugs for children are down 75% in Florida after a review process was put in place a year ago. In order for a psychiatrist to prescribe powerful and dangers anti-psychotic drugs to children, they must first get approval do so from a review panel. Over 200 psychiatrists in Florida decided it wasn’t worth the effort and never …

This is an interesting video from CCHR on Teen Screen, the insidious effort by the P$ych industry to get guaranteed funding for mandatory screening of all children from zero to 18, all pregnant mothers-to-be and all new mothers. My take on this is very easy to state: Don’t let this happen.
When an industry as powerful and as smart as Big Pharma has spent millions of dollars lobbying this effort, you know they are looking for a big payout at the end of it. All in the name of “helping” kids. But practically, of what …

There’s a great article in Rolling Stone about Eli Lilly marketing their phony miracle drug, Zyprexa.
It does a good job documenting how Lilly misled doctors and the public in order to rake in billions of dollars.
It fails, however, in ascribing their misdeeds to oversight and wishful thinking. The real motivation was simple corporate greed, and negligence that is well over the border into murderous disregard for the consequences of their marketing efforts to push this incredibly harmful drug. That’s what caused them to push Zyprexa on an unsuspecting medical community and on individual patients, multitudes of …

Some good news on the psych drug fraud front: the manufacturer of Zyprexa, Eli Lilly, has been slapped on the wrist with a fine in the amount of 1.4 Billion dollars. Here’s a good Fox video about this win for those who have been trying to rein in the psychiatric drug fraud.
Considering the amount of money made by Eli Lilly from Zyprexa, this huge fine is, in reality, no more than a slap on the wrist. But there are other provisions which require them to mend their ways or they will face even more fines and …

As this impassioned article, Antipsychotics Virtually Unfit for Human Consumption, posted by Dr. Fred Baughman, a retired neurologist, over at the Unite For Life blog points out, neurologists are the ones who treat the patients ruined by psychiatric drugs.
There is along list of ailments neurologists treat caused by antipsychotic drugs, such as transient and permanent dyskenesias, tardive (permanent and irreversible) dyskenesia, chronic toticollis, acute oculogyric crises, eye-blinking, forced eye closure, oral-lingual-fcial dyskenisa, Parkinson’s syndromes that are not actually Parkinson’s disease, bulbar paralysis, bulbar dyskenesia leading to aspiration, pneumonia, and death, especially in tehelderly, especially in nursing homes, in …

As reported in this article in the International Herald Tribune on the revisions of the DSM, psychiatrists are getting together in secret and gathering concensus on what constitutes mental illnesses. The main purpose for putting new disorders in the bible of psychiatry, which contains all the billing codes for psychiatric billing of insurance companies, is to get paid, of course. The general public tends to shun psychiatry, and won’t pay for it directly. But because psychiatrists have hidden their psuedo-science behind a facade of real medicine (to be a psychiatrist you must first become an MD), …
