Niemann-Pick Disease Type A (NPD-A) is a genetic metabolic disorder. It is a rare disease which occurs largely in certain ethnic groups. Due to its rarity, it is difficult to diagnosis and considered untreatable by Western medicine. Based on the theory, diagnosis and therapeutic methods of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) Pediatrics, the author has implemented a regular course of herbs, acupuncture and an over 2000 year old, Chinese baby Tuina (massage) treatments for the NPA child. This treatment plan is designed to stimulate immunity and detoxification, as well as to improve the immune, neurological and digestive systems.

As humans, we never fail to think that we are highly intelligent beings, and that we are mentally superior than any other creatures found on Earth.
Well, that...... may be true.
However, we can be equally stupid and dumb too.
Worse still, we don't even realize it - in terms of how we can make erroneous judgments, decisions and choices, based on how our mind processes and filters information, as well as how our belief system works.
As intriguing and exciting this topic is to me, I find it difficult to illustrate the concepts involve, and that took me nearly 6 months to complete this work. (The Planning Fallacy in play?!) Throughout writing this deck, I've made a total of 8 major revisions before coming to this final piece.
I hope you'll find this deck both interesting and useful!

The ideas and research that have informed this lecture are grounded in the areas of queer theory, gender studies, critical race theory, and feminist studies.
No one has influenced the entire world with "scientific" support for atheism, eugenics, racism and white supremacy more than Charles Darwin! It's time to dethrone him in science and in education.
Besides, his main ideas on evolution have been proven false: Absolutely no fossils to support gradual evolution between kinds of animals and molecular biology and DNA code science conclusively prove that random chance mutations could never have produced the massive complexity of life we now know exists even in one cell. Please challenge his ideas in your scientific and educational commmuities.
Here is a talk I gave on this recently: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2QRM7mxCVFI&t=706s
