Anagram engine In News:The New York TimesSydney Morning HeraldThe Globe and MailJerusalem Post Did you know that parliament is an anagram of partial men?

Barred Eagle-owl DXM Vault : DXM FAQ - Side Effects [ Previous Section ][ Table of Contents ][ Next Section ] Like all drugs, DXM has side effects and risks. While mild in most people, they cannot be ignored. DXM is not a "safe drug" or a "harmless drug" (two oxymorons if there ever were). I have reported every adverse effect (side effect) that has been related to me as a part of a DXM experience, some that have never shown up but have occurred with other dissociatives, and a few that are just speculation. I have tried to organize the side effects roughly by the frequency of occurrence, but I have not performed any real statistical analysis yet, so this is very rough.

Johnny and the Moondogs Johnny and The Moondogs was a name adopted by John Lennon, Paul McCartney and George Harrison in 1958 for the purpose of entering Carroll Levis's "Search For A Star" talent competition. On this historic occasion, they would forsake their usual "Quarry Men" name. It is not clear why the name was changed prior to this competition, however, ther are two plausible explanations. As luck or talent would have it, on this second try Johnny and The Moondogs they did somewhat better, passing the preliminary audition and appearing on the stage show at the Liverpool Empire Theatre, and doing well enough to qualify for the area finals held at the Ardwick Hippodrome, Manchester. This broad synopsis of the story seems to be undisputed, recounted by the Beatles themselves and numerous biographers.

38 WAYS TO WIN AN ARGUMENT Arthur Schopenhauer (1788-1860), was a brilliant German philosopher.
