What about this, eh?
Aconitum (/ˌækəˈnaɪtəm/),
also known as aconite,
monkshood, wolf's-bane,
leopard's bane, mousebane,
women's bane, devil's helmet,
queen of poisons, or blue rocket,
is a genus of over 250 species
Of flowering plants belonging
to the family Ranunculaceae.
These herbaceous perennial
plants are chiefly native to the
mountainous parts of the
Northern Hemisphere in
North America, Europe,
and Asia; growing in the
moisture-retentive but
well-draining soils of
mountain meadows.

Yorick is a character in
William Shakespeare's
play Hamlet. He is the
dead court jester whose
skull is exhumed by the
First Gravedigger in Act 5,
Scene 1, of the play. The
sight of Yorick's skull
evokes a reminiscence
by Prince Hamlet of the
man, who apparently played
a role during Hamlet's upbringing:

Altoids are a brand of mints,
sold primarily in distinctive
metal tins. The brand was
created by the London-based
Smith & Company in the 1780s,
and became part of the Callard
& Bowser company in the 19th
century. Their advertising slogan
is "The Original Celebrated Curiously
Strong Mints", referring to the high
concentration of peppermint oil
used in the original flavour lozenge.
The mints were originally conceived
as a lozenge intended to relieve
intestinal discomfort. Yummy flavor.

Cadmium is a chemical element
with the symbol Cd and atomic
number 48. This soft, silvery-white
metal is chemically similar to the
two other stable metals in group
12, zinc and mercury. Like zinc, it
demonstrates oxidation state +2
in most of its compounds, and like
mercury, it has a lower melting point
than the transition metals in groups
3 through 11. Cadmium and its
congeners in group 12 are often not
considered transition metals, in that
they do not have partly filled d or f
electron shells in the elemental or
common oxidation states.
The average concentration of
cadmium in Earth's crust is
between 0.1 and 0.5 parts per
million (ppm). It was discovered
in 1817 simultaneously by
Stromeyer and Hermann, both
in Germany, as an impurity in
zinc carbonate.

Electric and magnetic fields (EMFs)
are invisible areas of energy, often
referred to as Radiation, that are
associated with the use of electrical
power and various forms of natural
and man-made lighting. EMFs are
typically grouped into one of two
categories by their frequency:
Non-ionizing: low-level radiation
which is generally perceived as
harmless to humans.
Ionizing: high-level radiation
which has the potential for cellular
and DNA damage
