Traditionally, some textbooks from the United States used a system of six kingdoms (Animalia, Plantae, Fungi, Protista, Archaea/Archaeabacteria, and Bacteria/Eubacteria) while textbooks in Great Britain, India, Australia, Latin America and other countries used five kingdoms (Animalia, Plantae, Fungi, Protista and Monera).
For other uses, see Placebo (disambiguation) and Placebo effect (disambiguation). The placebo effect can be produced by inert tablets, by sham surgery, and by false information, such as when electrical stimulation is turned off in those with Parkinson's disease implanted brain electrodes.
General Motors has recalled 1.6 million vehicles because of a faulty ignition switch (PDF). GM said a heavy key ring or a âjarring event,â such as running off the road, could cause the ignition to slip out of position, shutting off the power and causing the air bags to fail in a crash. GM has linked 13 deaths to the defective switch.
