Slideshow: Dry Mouth: Causes, Symptoms, and Treatment

Dry mouth happens when your mouth produces little to no saliva. What little saliva you have might be thick and stringy. But dry mouth is more than just feeling thirsty. Saliva helps you taste what you eat and drink, and it helps you digest your food. It flushes food particles away from your teeth and neutralizes acids to help prevent tooth decay. Dry mouth is also called xerostomia.

The Death of Nuclear Power: The Five Global Energy Moves to Make Now - Money Morning


Nuclear power was gaining a lot of momentum prior to the terrible disaster at Japan's Fukushima powerplant in March.


But since then, atomic energy has come under increased scrutiny and once again drawn the ire of environmentalists who were just warming up to its carbon-free emissions.


The German government's decision to close all of its existing nuclear reactors by 2022 shows that this shift in sentiment is gaining traction. And it increases the likelihood that the nuclear-powerplant building boom that 
had seemed at hand will be set back.
