Iran Air Pilot Amazing Emergency Landing
The captain of an Iran Air Boeing 727 has managed to land his aircraft at Tehran’s Mehrabad airport even though its nose landing gear failed to unfold. Captain Hooshang Shahbazi’s piloting skill saved the lives of some 94 passengers and 19 crew members. Footage of the miraculous landing on October 18 became an internet sensation and Shahbazi’s Facebook page ( http://www.facebook.com/shahbazi200 ) has attracted hundreds of new friends.
The flight IR-742 from Moscow, Sheremetyevo was on approach to Tehran’s Imam Khomeini Airport around when the crew did not receive a down and locked indication for the nose gear and aborted the approach. Following unsuccessful troubleshooting the crew decided to divert to Tehran’s Mehrabad Airport where a low approach confirmed the nose gear was not extended. The crew subsequently performed a landing without the nose gear and came to a stand still on both main gear and the nose of the aircraft. The aircraft was evacuated, no injuries occurred.
Are Uniformed Thugs Really Our Public Servant Police?
Writers and editors at Veterans Today are going to be writing on OCW, offering their expertise. Our staff has over a thousand years of experience, much of it commanding, not only armies, but heads of state security forces, intelligence agencies and as police trainers.
The disease is police forces in a nation of laws violating those laws, those who are supposed to protect the public safety making it more than clear to us here at VT that they are willing to stoop to criminality to work for the 1%.
My point? It isn’t just the banks. We are no longer a nation of civil law, no longer a nation of accountability, and those who would limit OCW (Occupy Wall Street) to demonstrations
against banks may very well be working for the other side.

What Do These preseidential Photos Have In Common?
They all show a basic disrespect for The White House and its history.
The Resolute Desk was built from the timbers of the HMS Resolute and was a gift from Queen Victoria to President Rutherford B. Hayes.
It is considered a national treasure and icon of the presidency.
The White House belongs to the People of America and should be more revered than to use anything and everything for a foot rest! What all these shots have in common is that they continue to prove that this man has no class!
SO HERE'S A MESSAGE FROM THE PEOPLE OF AMERICA...
Mr. Obama, you are not in a hut in Kenya or Indonesia,
or public housing in Chicago .
With all due respect,
get your xxxxxxx feet off our desk.

Prayer Shield Around #Occupy London
'Christian groups in Britain are examining a proposal to form a “ring of prayer” around Occupy London Stock Exchange protest camp at St Paul's cathedral to prevent protestors' forced removal.
The development comes as the debate over the anti-capitalist protestors' right to stay at the site has heated up with Labour MP John McDonnell joining the supporters of the St Paul's 'tent city.' Christian activists have said they consider their duties to help the demonstrators continue their peaceful protest as the church itself does not recognize their right.
"Parliament is hitting the poorest hard and not hitting the wealthy in any effective way. That stands on its head the Christian principle of love inspiring power and justice, which puts the poorest citizens first," said Rev Paul Nicolson, chairman of the pro-justice charity Zacchaeus 2000 Trust.'

Miami PD Arrests State Tropper During 120 MPH Chase
There is a slight delay before the video starts. A Miami Police officer was arrested at gunpoint and charged with reckless driving after allegedly leading the Florida Highway Patrol on a seven-minute chase in his squad car at speeds that reached 120 mph on Florida's Turnpike in Broward County earlier this month. A highway patrol trooper pulled out her gun to arrest Fausto López, 35, after he reportedly ignored repeated warnings to stop.
López could not be reached for comment. As of Saturday, he was still assigned to regular duty at the Miami Police Department, said Cmdr. Delrish Moss, "because at this point it's a traffic offense." The incident started at 6:28 a.m. Oct. 11 on the southbound turnpike at Commercial Boulevard, when a trooper, identified as D.J. Watts, saw a Miami patrol car switching lanes in a dangerous manner. Watts turned on her lights and siren but couldn't reach López, who was driving more than 120 mph, the report said. At about 6:33 a.m., Watts caught up to López. When she pulled in back of López's car, she once again activated her lights and siren, but López ignored the warnings, according to the report, and kept going. Finally, at 6:35 a.m., seven minutes after the start of the high-speed chase, López stopped his car near Hollywood.

Lawfirm Halloween Costumes As Foreclosed Homeless People
'The party is the firm’s big annual bash. Employees wear Halloween costumes to the office, where they party until around noon, and then return to work, still in costume. I can’t tell you how people dressed for this year’s party, but I can tell you about last year’s.
That’s because a former employee of Steven J. Baum recently sent me snapshots of last year’s party. In an e-mail, she said that she wanted me to see them because they showed an appalling lack of compassion toward the homeowners — invariably poor and down on their luck — that the Baum firm had brought foreclosure proceedings against.'

Seattle Cops Need Machine Guns For 2 Pot Plants?
The Seattle Police Department and the mayor's office have repeatedly insisted that marijuana possession, per city law, is the lowest law enforcement priority. They also adhere, they say, to a state law that makes it legal for authorized patients to use and grow marijuana.
But last night provided evidence that Seattle police are willing to invest tremendous resources in the smallest of pot cases—even cases where the pot is legal—and the mayor’s office will remain silent.
Just before 9:00 p.m., officers at SPD’s East Precinct held a briefing about the complaint of marijuana at a four-unit apartment building in the Leschi neighborhood. One week earlier, officers applied for a search warrant from King County Superior Court, sent an officer with a K9 to sniff at the door, confirmed the scent of marijuana, and were in the process last night of planning a raid. “Once the briefing was completed, officers donned their raid equipment clearly marked ‘Police’ on all sides,” according to a draft incident report filed by police.

#Occupy Marines
As you’ve all heard, one of our own was critically injured this week when police forcibly broke up an “Occupy Oakland” event. Scott Olsen did two tours in Iraq with the Marines, only to come home and have his skull fractured by a tear gas canister. While our prayers go out to Scott and the Olsen family, our task is to get organized.
With more and more veterans joining Occupy movements across the country, it is critically important that we form a visible, strong contingent of vets here in NYC. Occupy Wall Street offers us an unprecedented opportunity to highlight the economic struggles of returning veterans, while also uniting with labor, community organizations, students, and the rest of the 99%.
If you are in the NY/NJ area, please join us this Saturday at the national office of Iraq Veterans Against the War (address below). We’ll order pizza and probably get some beers afterward.
Please RSVP, pass this on to vet friends, and let me know if you’re no longer in the NY/NJ area.

ACLU Sues LA Sheriff's Dept For Being Naughty
The ACLU of Southern California sued the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department and several of its deputies Thursday alleging they harassed, detained and improperly searched photographers taking pictures legally in public places.
The federal lawsuit alleges the Sheriff's Department and deputies "have repeatedly" subjected photographers "to detention, search and interrogation simply because they took pictures" from public streets of places such as Metro turnstiles, oil refineries or near a Long Beach courthouse.
"Photography is not a crime. It's protected 1st Amendment expression," said Peter Bibring, senior staff attorney for the American Civil Liberties Union of Southern California. "It violates the Constitution's core protections for sheriff’s deputies to detain and search people who are doing nothing wrong. To single them out for such treatment while they’re pursuing a constitutionally protected activity is doubly wrong."
Bibring said the policy and practices of the Sheriff's Department reflect a widespread misuse of "suspicious activity reporting" under the auspices of Homeland Security and counterterrorism. Similar suits have been filed in several other states.

#Scott Olsen Needs Brain Surgery From Occupy Oakland Blast To The Face
Olsen's condition has been upgraded after an incident that has prompted calls for Oakland mayor's resignation.
Scott Olsen, the Iraq war veteran who suffered serious head injuries after being hit by a projectile fired by police during the Occupy Oakland protests, will require surgery to alleviate brain swelling. Doctors at Highland Hospital in Oakland have upgraded Olsen's condition from critical to fair, a source told the Guardian, though they would not discuss whether the 24-year-old had regained consciousness.
Olsen's roommate Keith Shannon, who served with him in Iraq, said Olsen would be undergoing surgery "within a day or two".
Shannon, who lives with Olsen in Daly City, a city south of San Francisco, said it was "great" that Olsen had been upgraded to "fair" status, but said concerns remained as to whether he may have suffered brain damage.
He was sedated upon arrival at the hospital on Tuesday night. His parents flew in from Wisconsin and were at his bedside on Thursday.
Oakland's police chief Howard Jordan has promised a vigorous investigation into the incident which has provoked heavy criticism across the US, sparking solidarity marches in dozens of Occupy camps in the country.
The Oakland protesters were back in force on Wednesday night, 24 hours after they were supposed to be gone for good, demanding the resignation of the city's mayor.
This time the police did nothing except circle around the demonstrators and discourage them from jumping on to an overhead freeway. More than 1000 protesters kept marching through the city streets until long after midnight, shouting an occasional "shame on you" at motorcycle cops and taking care to pick up their own litter. They even picked up pieces of a fence they had earlier pulled down and stacked them in neat piles around Frank Ogawa Plaza, in front of City Hall.

Enriched Uranium Weapons New Battlefield Horror

Epidemic TSA Scandals And Failures
The chairman of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, which oversees the TSA, has asserted that the release of a classified report on TSA security failures will renew calls for the replacement of the agency with private airport security personnel.
“The failure rate (for body scanning equipment) is classified but it would absolutely knock your socks off,” Florida Republican, Rep. John L. Mica told reporters during a briefing Monday.
Mica also asserted that recorded instances of pat downs failing to detect contraband are “off the charts.” This information is also currently still classified, but is due to be released within weeks as part of an upcoming committee report on the TSA’s first decade.
Mica suggested that the TSA’s performance report would read “sort of like the record of the Marx Brothers”.
The TSA has withheld results of its official security tests, despite repeated requests to release the information under the Freedom of Information Act.
The Department of Homeland Security has classified the results of the most recent random, covert “red team tests,” where undercover agents try to see what they can get past airport security. The reason they have done so, according to MIca, is because the results have been so shockingly and consistently bad for the past nine years.

Wireless "Smart" Street Lights To Supply Homeland Security
UPDATE: Presumably in response to this article being linked on the Drudge Report, the company behind ‘Intellistreets’, Illuminating Concepts, has now pulled the video from You Tube entirely, presumably nervous about the negative publicity that could be generated from concerns about street lights being used for “Homeland Security” purposes – their words, not ours. We have added an alternative version of the clip below, but it may be subject to removal at any time. The video is still available on the company’s website.
New street lights that include “Homeland Security” applications including speaker systems, motion sensors and video surveillance are now being rolled out with the aid of government funding.
The Intellistreets system comprises of a wireless digital infrastructure that allows street lights to be controlled remotely by means of a ubiquitous wi-fi link and a miniature computer housed inside each street light, allowing for “security, energy management, data harvesting and digital media,” according to the Illuminating Concepts website
n terms of Homeland Security applications, each of the light poles contains a speaker system that can be used to broadcast emergency alerts, as well as a display that transmits “security levels” (presumably a similar system to the DHS’ much maligned color-coded terror alert designation), in addition to showing instructions by way of its LED video screen.
The lights also include proximity sensors that can record both pedestrian and road traffic. The video display and speaker system will also be used to transmit Minority Report-style advertising, as well as Amber Alerts and other “civic announcements”.
With the aid of grant money from the federal government, the company is about to launch the first concept installation of the system in the city of Farmington Hills, Michigan.
100,000 Excess US Deaths Due To Fukushima in 2011
NOTE: March 13 - Sept 3, 2011, Beta radiation levels averages for 129 US cities from 2010 to 2011, to monitor radiation increases since Fukushima. Radiation increased in all 129 US Cities 5 x higher than previous level,
March 5x higher
April 2 x higher
May 1.15 x higher
Significant increases inL
Tucson 18.2 x higher
Yreka highest in the US 53,05 x increase (huge rainfall)
San Diego 11.42 x
Honolulu 23.9 x
Salt Lake 16.77 x higher
Other cities with highest radiation:
Phoenix
Salt Lake
Tucson
San Diego
Honolulu
Riverside, Ca
Orlando
Las Vegas
San Francisco
Hilo
Portland
Olympia
Seattle
Omaha
Sacramento
Jacksonville
Idaho Falls
Without rain still high levels of radiation, Arizona, Utah, Hawaii, California & Florida, Washington, Oregon
weather & geography determine radiation amounts in a particular area
US infant mortality Mar 11- June 18
35% increase along West Coast
45% Vancouver, Seattle, Portland & Spokane for same time period
Data does not include infant mortality:
Ecology News
Exopolitics
March 13 weekly CDC reports show increases range from 2.7% - 9%
total 25 week increase 34,129 extra deaths through Sept 3
by Jan 1, 2012, estimate excess death rates including infant mortality 100,000 deaths,
Remember that Fukushima continues to spew radioactive toxins around the world, into the atmosphere and into the ocean for almost 8 months, and still no end in sight. The radioactive debris incineration is also contributing to the increases. The disaster will not be over in our lifetime.
Atmospheric levels of radiation will continue to raise and are higher now than when Fukushima first happened. Radiation is accumulative.
Police Brutality Charges SWEEP US
'Officer Michael Daragjati had no idea that the FBI was listening to his phone calls. Otherwise he would probably not have described his arrest and detention of an innocent black New Yorker in the manner he did.
Daragjati boasted to a woman friend that, while on patrol in Staten Island, he had "fried another nigger". It was "no big deal", he added. The FBI, which had been investigating another matter, then tried to work out what had happened.
According to court documents released in New York, Daragjati and his partner had randomly stopped and frisked a black man who had become angry and asked for Daragjati's name and badge number. Daragjati, 32, and with eight years on the force, had no reason to stop the man, and had found nothing illegal. But he arrested him and fabricated an account of him resisting arrest. The man, now referred to in papers only as John Doe because of fears for his safety, spent two nights in jail. He had merely been walking alone through the neighbourhood.'

Horror Winter For Much Of Europe Predicted
“The German online Bild newspaper projects another bitter cold winter ahead for Central Europe,” says this article by P. Gosselin. “The real cold will not arrive until the end of November – but then look out!”
“In four weeks the Horror-Winter begins!”
“Bild quotes meteorologist Dominik Jung of www.wetter.net/:
“For Germany the fourth colder-than-normal winter in a row lies ahead. The fourth below-normal winter in a row would be a small sensation.”
Wetter.net predicts that temperatures will plummet in January, and that the month will be “considerably colder” than normal. “Central Europeans can expect to see temperatures as low as -25°C.”
February will also be colder than normal, says Jung. “Snow will fall until the end of the month, and possibly drag on into March.”
“Note that these forecasts predict snow and ice for the normally temperate lowlands.”
“Just a few years ago the drugged-up climatologists were predicting the end of skiing in the Alps.”

Global Warming Obituary
I used to write obituaries when I was a young journalist and I daresay they are one of the best read sections of any newspaper. We have arrived at a time when the obituaries for global warming (now falsely called climate change) are increasing.The October 25th edition of The Wall Street Journal sports an editorial titled “The Post-Global Warming World” commenting on the fact that the 17th annual United Nations-sponsored climate change conference in November is likely to be an even greater flop than recent ones. Few, if any, nations will sign on to the huge hoax of reducing carbon dioxide (CO2) to save the world from burning to a crisp.
Considering the long years of media-driven drivel about global warming, the hoax should have been over by now, given the exposure in 2009 of thousands of emails between the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) conspirators and growing body of evidence that everything they asserted was a great steaming pile of horse manure.
If there was ever a reason for the U.S. to stop funding the U.N., this is it.
I have predicted the death of global warming several times, but like a Hollywood zombie global warming is kept alive by its massive propaganda machine and useful idiots in the media.

Is Muller Whoring For Global Warming?
“I’ve had it up to here with being lied to by Muller, I’m fed up with his tricks & his whoring for the media.” – Willis Eschenbach
(Excerpts) – “Sure, I could pretend Muller is an honest and honorable man like you recommend,” says Eschenbach.
“But his actions have shown him to be a cunning snake. It is not my habit to address snakes as though they were honorable men.”
“He is a deceptive, sneaky man, an activist who professes neutrality and pretends to be a scientist, a man who thinks nothing of throwing someone to the wolves, a panderer for his latest findings.”
“And as far as I’m concerned, all you guys acting like he is a decent man, and advising me not to mention the Emperor’s nudity, are accomplices in his deception.”

Cyber Security Law Would Make Patriot Act Look Quaint
Isn't it time for at least the bloggers if not the mainstream, to think about who Obama is and the fact that the country is much worse off now than in 2008 - except the very wealthy, the ones building even larger mansions in the Hamptons and buying $14,000 purses, paying $48,868 a year tuitions (to rise 3%) with no loans - and how cleverly he took us in to get what HE wanted.
Wars continuing, getting out of Iraq only because his poll numbers are falling, supporting Karzai and corruption - with our money - in Afghanistan, hypocritical about Israel and the Palestinians, assassinations, killing of Americans, a foreign policy which is actually in the neocon handbook if you read the Statements of Principles for the Project for a New American Century, while right now - with plummeting poll numbers - pandering to anyone he thinks will vote for him by throwing out crumbs to the hardest hit while collecting huge amounts of money from Wall St. and Big Money.... This cybersecurity bill is like some many of the other issues that Obama has that he does NOT flaunt but which will affect us.
We were bamboozled - do we need 20 years to admit it in hindsight or do we think about alternatives??? We cannot, in a country of 300 million people be forced to elect a man because he is NOT someone else. Or can we?

Physician Speaks Out Against Gardasil Vaccine
Dr. Christian Fiala, a general practitioner from Vienna, Austria, told WorldNetDaily (WND) in a recent report that Merck's Gardasil does not actually work to prevent cervical cancer, and that it is not safe. According to Dr. Fiala, "there is no proof of a causal relationship of HPV (human papillomavirus) and cervical cancer, and there is no evidence that HPV vaccine reduces the overall number of cervical cancer (cases)."
Assuming for a moment that the Gardasil vaccine actually does help prevent HPV, Dr. Fiala asserts that HPV is not even itself responsible for causing cervical cancer, which makes the vaccine completely useless at accomplishing the very thing for which it is marketed. And as we previously reported, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has also known since at least 2003 that HPV is not associated with causing cervical cancer as well
But none of this has stopped Merck and its lackeys in the government and media from continuing to endorse the "money-making machine without any benefits for patients," as Dr. Fiala calls it. And this was made abundantly clear when the mainstream media went on its rampage against Rep. Michele Bachmann following her recent comments about Gardasil's dangers at the GOP presidential debates.
Dr. Fiala has been fighting against Gardasil in Austria for years, especially after several otherwise healthy and vibrant young girls in his country died just days after receiving their Gardasil vaccines. And while Gardasil is still legal in Austria, Dr. Fiala says it is "used infrequently," thanks to widespread awareness of its potential to seriously injure and kill those who receive it.

Oakland Police Don't Want You To See Them In Action
LIVE VIDEO STREAMS: Here's the CBS News live feed. Periodically going dark. Here is another local news feed from KRON-4. Here's the ABC affiliate. Here's a stream from an Anon/Occupy activist. And here's another. This archived stream shows police dropping flash-bangs and launching large amounts of tear gas into a crowd.
8:10pm Pacific: Reports via Twitter that Oakland police are bringing out a "sound cannon," a non-lethal weapon that shoots intense rays of sound to disperse crowds. Not sure yet if this is true. I've covered this for NPR and Boing Boing previously, and experienced a controlled test of it myself at a military location. The device is no joke. This reporter just confirmed the presence of an LRAD device on the scene, and OPD saying they intend to use it if crowd does not disperse.
Tweets coming in now (745pm Pacific) from various sources report that Oakland police have told news choppers and reporters on the ground to turn off their cameras and leave, and the reporters are apparently doing so. Protesters are, literally, being read the riot act and told to disperse. All media are ordered to leave. Police are saying that if all people do not leave, the police will use chemicals or force to coerce them to do so.
#OccupyOakland Notes for myself but you'll want to know: I saw use of tear gas three times, the sound canon, bean bags, uncountable amount of flashbangs and rubber bullets being used. I saw 1 kid passed out, a few people bleeding, puking and everyone screaming and crying. I was affected by tear gas was at least 3 times. eyes / skin burning, couldn't breath due to coughing. And got hit by a bean bag (wish I would've kept it). Cops where in full riot gear with shield, gas mask and beaten almost the full time. Moving moments was when a protester threw $$$ at the police line yelling "will you protect us now?" and after the first attack of tear gas we chanted "we're still here" though our unbelievably burning crying. I was never close enough to see any badge numbers, and although I didn't see it I herd of quite a few times of people getting hit with the baton.
Tonight started off as a protest, but was turned into a full out war for no reason. The crowd I was with was always peaceful. We yelled, protested, yes, but that is fully in our rights. We are the people to protect, not the people to be denied our rights as citizens of the United States. Our forefathers and our military personal fought hard for these rights, and for what? For us to be suppressed? I think not… it's our turn to not ask, beg, or vote our rights back, but to take them as they are ours. --- @JackalAnon
8:10pm Pacific: Reports via Twitter that Oakland police are bringing out a "sound cannon," a non-lethal weapon that shoots intense rays of sound to disperse crowds. Not sure yet if this is true. I've covered this for NPR and Boing Boing previously, and experienced a controlled test of it myself at a military location. The device is no joke. This reporter just confirmed the presence of an LRAD device on the scene, and OPD saying they intend to use it if crowd does not disperse.
Tweets coming in now (745pm Pacific) from various sources report that Oakland police have told news choppers and reporters on the ground to turn off their cameras and leave, and the reporters are apparently doing so. Protesters are, literally, being read the riot act and told to disperse. All media are ordered to leave. Police are saying that if all people do not leave, the police will use chemicals or force to coerce them to do so.

US Cops Want To Erase Online Evidence Of Police Brutality
Google has been asked by a US law enforcement agency to remove several videos exposing police brutality from the video sharing service YouTube, the company has revealed in its latest update to an online transparency report.
Another request filed by a different agency required Google to remove videos allegedly defaming law enforcement officials. The two requests were among 92 submissions for content removal by various authorities in the US filed between January and June 2011. Both were rejected by Google along with 27 per cent of the submissions.
The IT giant says the overall number of requests for content removal it receives from governmental agencies has risen, and so has the number of requests to disclose the private data of Google users.
Brazil heads the first list with 224 separate demands to remove a total of 689 items from its search results, as well as from YouTube and various other services. Google says its social networking service Orkut is very popular in the Latin American country, which partially explains the number of requests.
Heading the list of countries requesting the disclosure of personal data is the United States, where a total of 5,950 submissions targeting 11,057 user accounts have been filed. Google fully or partially complied with 93 per cent of those requests. Second on the list is India, with 1,732 requests over a six-month period.
Russian officials filed fewer than 10 requests to remove content and 42 requests to disclose user information (which was the first time the number reached Google’s threshold for reporting). The company complied with 75 per cent of the Russian requests concerning content and none of those concerning user data.
Google says it hopes that its report will contribute to the ongoing public discussion on the ways the internet needs to be regulated.

US Was A Republic And Country Of Laws
NOTE: We are not intended to be a democracy. A democracy in the most simple terms is like asking for mob rules irrespective of laws that wold protect even a single person.
Democracy is asking 10 wolves and a sheep to vote on what's on the dinner plate. The sheep will always loose in a democracy. In a Republic there would be laws against wolves slaughtering sheep and the democratic mob could not overturn the moral laws.
Non Active Marines Called To #Occupy
A new group called Occupy Marines is calling on non-active duty Marines to support the "Occupy" protest movement.
The group was formed online to support the Occupy Wall Street protests after videos circulated online of a Marine confronting New York City police, questioning their tactics used against Occupy Wall Street demonstrators.
In a video that has received nearly 2.5 million views, Marine Sgt. Shamar Thomas of Roosevelt, N.Y. an Iraq War veteran, spoke out to police in New York's Times Square, charging that they were over-reacting to Occupy marchers - and shaming their uniform.
"This is a not a war zone," Thomas said. "These are unarmed people. It doesn't make you tough to hurt these people. If you want to go fight, go to Iraq or Afghanistan.
"Leave these people alone," he yelled. "They're U.S. citizens! U.S.! Stop hurting these people, man. Why are you all doing to it to our people?
"They don't have guns! It doesn't make any sense!
"How do you sleep at night? There is no honor in this.
NOTE: What a switch, someone in the military doing something for their country, instead of doing things TO other people and their countries.

EMF DangersTo All Living Things
he electromagnetic radiation (EMR) emitted from mobile towers is so powerful that it affects the biological systems of birds, insects, and even humans. The study, released by the environment ministry, called for the protection of flora and fauna by law.
'The review of existing literature shows that the EMRs are interfering with the biological systems in more ways than one and there had already been some warning bells sounded in the case on bees and birds, which probably heralds the seriousness of this issue and indicates the vulnerability of other species as well,' the study found.
In September of 2010, the ministry established a 10-member committee under Bombay Natural History Society (BNHS) with director Asad Rahmani to study the impact of cellphone towers on birds and bees. The group of experts reviewed 919 studies performed in India and abroad regarding the effects of cellphone towers on birds, insects, animals, wildlife, and humans.
What the group found was quite startling.
Electromagnetic radiation may play a role in the decline of animal and insect populations

TSA Unleashes Kid Gloves
If you thought the “Transportation Security Administration” would limit itself to conducting unconstitutional searches at airports, think again. The agency intends to assert jurisdiction over our nation’s highways, waterways, and railroads as well. TSA launched a new campaign of random checkpoints on Tennessee highways last week, complete with a sinister military-style acronym--VIP(E)R – as a name for the program.
As with TSA’s random searches at airports, these roadside searches are not based on any actual suspicion of criminal activity or any factual evidence of wrongdoing whatsoever by those detained. They are, in effect, completely random. So first we are told by the U.S. Supreme Court that American citizens have no 4thamendment protections at border crossings, even when standing on U.S. soil. Now TSA takes the next logical step and simply detains and searches U.S. citizens at wholly internal checkpoints.
The slippery slope is here. When does it end? How many more infringements on our liberties, our property, and our basic human rights to travel freely will it take before people become fed up enough to demand respect from their government? When will we demand that the government heed obvious constitutional limitations, and stop treating ordinary Americans as criminal suspects in the absence of probable cause?
Vigilant, observant, law-abiding, gun-owning citizens defend themselves and stop crimes every day before police can respond. That is the source of real security in America: the 2nd Amendment right to defend oneself. The answer is for people to be empowered to protect themselves. Yet how many weapons might these checkpoints confiscate? Even when individual go through all the legal hoops of licensing and permits, the chances of harassment or outright confiscation of weapons and detention of citizens when those weapons are found at a TSA checkpoint is extremely high.
Disarming the highways and filling them full of jack-booted thugs demanding to see our papers is no way to make them safer. Instead, it is a great way to expand government surveillance powers and tighten the noose around our liberties.

US Gave $431 BILLION After Fraud Convictions
'In the nation’s capital, crime does pay for defense contractors.The Department of Defense has admitted that it has rewarded hundreds of companies convicted of fraud with new deals that totaled more than $1.1 trillion.
Senator Bernie Sanders (I-Vermont), who requested the information from the Pentagon, said, “The ugly truth is that virtually all of the major defense contractors in this country for years have been engaged in systemic fraudulent behavior, while receiving hundreds of billions of dollars of taxpayer money.”'

Will Evil Monsanto Stop At Nothing?
'In October 2011, Nikola Aleksi, leader of Ecological Movement of Novi Sad in Serbia, was arrested and fined. Earlier on his way to a conference in Belgrade, an attempt was reportedly made on his life. And Monsanto has sued him with the threat of removing him and his family from their rented flat as "collateral."
Why all the fuss? Nikola made a spirited speech, recorded on video, challenging the Serbian president for allowing GMOs to come into Serbia. He also challenged the Serbian government for allowing planes to spray chemtrails in the Serbian skies.'
NOTE: Not a single Con-gress person has ever challenged the pollution and destruction of our lands from the chemical spraying.

Am I Free Yet?
'The US suffered a major diplomatic and military rebuff on Friday when Iraq finally rejected its pleas to maintain bases in the country beyond this year.
Barack Obama announced at a White House press conference that all American troops will leave Iraq by the end of December, a decision forced by the final collapse of lengthy talks between the US and the Iraqi government on the issue.
The Iraqi decision is a boost to Iran, which has close ties with many members of the Iraqi government and which had been battling against the establishment of permanent American bases.'
NOTE: How many millions of injuries and deaths since the first invasion of this once well educated country? How many deaths and lingering diseases from the depleted uranium for the US troops who continue to show up for these gang slaughters?

Science Of Revolution
'To what degree have large banks and corporations committed treason, war profiteering, theft, and usurped the power of our government? Has it gone so far that it would be the patriotic duty of Americans to have a revolution which restores economic liberties and constitutional representative government? If so how do we begin to do that?
There are large numbers of Americans and people around the world who are protesting right now and it seems to be about the same thing. It is a protest against an international cartel of corporations and banks employing the United States military, NATO, and its defense industries to advance a rotten international financial order and corporate agenda. Many governments of the world are being held captive by these interests and then being directed on how to make decisions.

276,000 bq/kg Cesium In Kashiwa City
Kashiwa City's Radioactive Dirt: 276,000 Bq/Kg of Cesium
The highly radioactive dirt in Kashiwa City in Chiba, which measured 57.5 microsieverts/hr 30 centimeters below the surface, was not from radium after all or any other nuclides that are used in industrial or medical use (some suggested cobalt-60, for example). It was from radioactive cesium.
On October 22 Kashiwa City announced the result of the analysis of three dirt samples from the location at different depth (one on the surface, two at 30 centimeter deep). The analysis was done on October 22. The unit is becquerels per kilogram:
Sample A (surface dirt)
Radioactive iodine: ND
Cesium-134: 70,200
Cesium-137: 85,100
Total cesium: 155,300
Sample B1 (30 centimeters below the surface)
Radioactive iodine: ND
Cesium-134: 87,000
Cesium-137: 105,000
Total cesium: 192,000
Sample B2 (30 centimeters below the surface)
Radioactive iodine: ND
Cesium-134: 124,000
Cesium-137: 152,000
Total cesium: 276,000
The address of the location is announced by the city as: 柏市根戸字高野台457番3地先. According to the residents, the place is a strip of open space between the residential area and the industrial area, and is used as playground by many residents, young and old.

Indigenous Protests Stop Road Through National Park
Bolivian President Evo Morales on Friday agreed not to build a road through an Amazon reserve amid pressure from Indians who had marched for 66 days to La Paz to protest the plan.
Morales made the announcement a little over an hour after protest leaders had gathered outside the presidential palace in hopes of holding talks with him, saying that he would submit a bill to Congress that addressed their demand.
The socialist president, who had insisted for months on the need for the Brazilian-funded road, said the bill will state that neither “the Villa Tunari-San Ignacio de Moxos highway, nor any other, will traverse the Isiboro Secure Indigenous Territory and National Park (Tipnis).”
Morales announced that the proposed legislation also will ensure that the Amazon Indians are shielded from the encroachment of outside groups of settlers.
The Tipnis residents have accused Morales of promoting the road project to give indigenous coca farmers in the Chapare region, which borders the reserve and is the president’s political stronghold, more acreage for growing the leaf, the raw material of cocaine.
Bolivia, like neighboring Peru, permits cultivation of coca in limited amounts for use in teas, folk medicine and Andean religious rites. Morales has combined stepped-up seizures of cocaine with efforts to develop additional legal applications for coca.
Protest leader Rafael Quispe, like Morales an Aymara Indian, said the bill was a “good sign” but he added the Tipnis inhabitants still have a list of 15 demands they want to discuss with the president.

Peru Kicks Out Canadian Mining Company
Earlier this summer, an anti-mining Indigenous movement in Peru successfully ousted a Canadian mining company from their territory. “In spite of government repression, if the people decide to bring the fight to the bitter end, it is possible to resist the pressure of mining and oil companies,” Peruvian activist and journalist Yasser Gómez told The Dominion.
The David and Goliath scenario of this anti-mining uprising highlights the vast economic inequality that has beset Peru. The country’s economy has been booming for the past decade, with a seven per cent growth expected this year—one of the highest growth rates internationally. Sixty-five per cent of the country’s export income comes from the mining industry, and investors are expected to spend over $40 billion in the next 10 years on mining operations.
Yet this growth has not benefited a large percentage of the population. The poverty rate in Peru is just over 31 per cent; in the countryside, two in three people live under the poverty line. Today, there are over 200 communities organized against mining across Peru.
On June 5, left-leaning presidential candidate Ollanta Humala defeated right winger Keiko Fujimori, the daughter of ex-president and human rights violator Alberto Fujimori. Humala, who won resounding support in the poor countryside, promised to redistribute wealth by increasing taxes on the lucrative mining industry.
But another political force, from the grassroots, may end up being a powerful force of change under Humala.
In May and June of this year, hundreds of local residents in Puno organized road blockades, strikes and protests to demand that the government rescind a concession to the Vancouver-based Bear Creek Mining Corporation. Activists also called for an end to future mining concessions in their area, due to the industry’s impact on the environment.
According to Bear Creek, at the time of the protests the company had already invested some $25 million in the mine. Company Director Andrew Swarthout said the mining would not impact on Lake Titicaca (a massive fresh water lake shared by Bolivia and Peru) and would create approximately 1,000 jobs. But local residents were not convinced.

How Venezuela And Cuba Are Changing Health Care
“Often we need to change our concepts, not only the general concepts, the social or philosophical ones, but also sometimes our medical concepts.” - Ernesto Che Guevara.
Modelled on Che Guevara’s principles and keeping in line with the Cuban revolution, Steve Brouwer’s assessment of Cuba’s health care system in his book Revolutionary Doctors: How Venezuela and Cuba Are Changing the World’s Conception of Health Care (Monthly Review Press, July 2011) stands as a testimony to answer anyone claiming that socialism cannot function. Cuban doctors have regaled people in Latin America and around the world with medical opportunities which, in capitalist ideology and implementation, remain remote. While Cubans are provided free health care provided by medics who are dedicated to science and society, the United States has created a scheme based on profits, which marginalizes a major segment of the population who cannot afford costly treatment.
Che Guevara, himself a doctor, always reiterated the responsibility of helping the oppressed. Having observed the effects of poverty and social class during his travels in Latin America, his revolutionary consciousness stemmed from the concept of restoring dignity to the poor who were oppressed and neglected by dictatorships. Reaffirming Che’s philosophy, at the ELAM (Escuela Latinoamericana de Medicina) medical school in Cuba, an inscription of Fidel Castro’s words greets the students. “This will be a battle of solidarity against selfishness.” Striving against the reluctance of the minority who view a career medicine as an opportunity to achieve higher social status, ELAM’s philosophy is “transforming the doctor’s privilege into a doctor’s responsibility.”
Immediately after the triumph of the revolution, the health care system in Cuba underwent major changes. Despite a shortage of doctors, many of them having left to practice in the US and thereby retain prestige and social status, Cuba invested heavily in social welfare. Health care services were nationalized, medicine prices were reduced and treatment fees were gradually eliminated. By the end of 1960, Cuban doctors were employed in a system that provided free health care to all Cubans.

Argentia To Wall Street #Occupy Everything
Massive buildings tower over Wall Street, making the sidewalks feel like valleys in an urban mountain range. The incense, drum beats and chants of Occupy Wall Street echo down New York City’s financial district from Liberty Plaza, where thousands of activists have converged to protest economic injustice and fight for a better world.
As unemployment and poverty in the US reaches record levels, the protest is catching on, with hundreds of parallel occupations sprouting up across the country. It was a similar disparity in economic and political power that led people to the streets in the Arab Spring, and in Wisconsin, Greece, Spain and London. Occupy Wall Street is part of this global revolt. This new movement in the US also shares much in common with uprisings in another part of the world: Latin America.
This report from Liberty Plaza connects tactics and philosophies surrounding the Occupy Wall Street movement with similar movements in Latin America, from the popular assemblies and occupation of factories during Argentina’s economic crisis in 2001-2002, to grassroots struggles for land in Brazil.

Canadian mining company Iamgold’s Quimsacocha gold mining project, high in the Andes of southern Ecuador is going nowhere fast. On October 2, the mining project was the latest one to fall victim to the community referendums that have defeated mining projects in Peru, Guatemala and Argentina.
It doesn’t matter that the government, predictably, said that the referendum, which overwhelmingly rejected mining by a more than 20 to 1 margin (92% vs. 4%), is invalid because it was not “authorized” by its institutions. However, it is legitimate in the eyes of most of the public and, more importantly, in the eyes of community members from the two communities where the project is located, and who stood the most to suffer from the proposed gold mine. In light of governmental failure to uphold community and human rights over business interests, local referendums are emerging into a powerful tool to address the unbalance of power.
CONAIE, Ecuador’s most powerful indigenous umbrella organization, not only actively supported the referendum, but made it clear that it should be replicated wherever communities are affected by mining. This could be the start of a grass-roots movement to use Constitution guarantees directly by communities to protect their basic rights.
The twin highland communities are not the only ones pushing back against large-scale mining. Responding to the aggressive intervention by government and mining companies pushing the mining agenda, the Provincial and County governments of the Azuay Province, home to Quimsacocha, Rio Blanco and several other mining projects, recently called for a total ban of mining activities within their jurisdictions. Two themes stand out in this unusual and strong anti-mining stance by local governments: the threat that mining poses to Cuenca’s water supply, the Province’s largest town, but it also entails basic Constitutional questions regarding the rights of local governments to control land use, regulate industries, and protect citizen’s health.
The referendum, the first of its kind in Ecuador, will very likely provoke IAMGOLD, and other transnationals, to increase their green-washing campaign. Since it fears that the strategy will spread to other mining areas, the referendum will also undoubtedly motivate the national government to conduct its own “legitimate” one. They will risk doing so only after a large-scale green-washing propaganda campaign aimed at convincing most of the voters of mining’s economic benefits, its safety, and its low environmental impact.
The promise of new infrastructure projects- such as roads- and more rents for local governments will undoubtedly play a big part in the campaign. However, it shouldn’t alter the grass-roots opposition, which is well aware of mining impacts on their lives, their environment and their communities, and who has received major support from Ecuador’s civil society as well as international groups. Thus, trying to undo the October 2nd outcome, while a central focus of both the government and the company, is likely to fail.
The government was obviously caught off-guard by the referendum and the crushing setback for its mining program. Right now they are spending all their energy in damage control, but it’s too late. The opposition to mining has never been so publicly and clearly stated, and the little referendum in the highlands of Ecuador has seriously upset the government’s mining plans, and sent a very clear message to all of Ecuador’s mining companies.

Trans Texas Corridor Dead~For The Moment
Rep. Kolkhorst has introduced legislation to repeal the TTC for the last three sessions. This year, it finally passed. The pie-in-the-sky, 4,000-mile, 1,200 foot wide network of toll roads, rail, utilities, telecommunications, etc. that would confiscate 580,000 acres and displace 1 million Texans on TTC-35 alone is DEAD. However, in SB 1420, 14 Texas road projects remain eligible for P3s that will cost urban commuters dearly, 75 cents per mile, and still pose sovereignty, eminent domain, and monopoly concerns.
Terri Hall, Founder of Texans Uniting for Reform and Freedom (TURF) noted, "So taking a line from the movie Princess Bride, the Trans Texas Corridor is 'mostly dead.' Regardless of the final status, the TTC has been officially repealed, which is cause for our celebration today. We put the proponents in serious retreat, yet we will remain vigilant."
Hall pointed out that by its own admission, the highway department (TxDOT) plans to break-up the TTC in smaller pieces and do the project using the original road or loop name like, SH 130, and Loop 9 around DFW. However, the size and scale will be greatly diminished, which Hall thinks is a tremendous victory for property rights and Texas landowners.
Kolkhorst teared up as she listened to Hall recount the stories that lead up to the repeal of the TTC. As she accepted her award she remarked, "How could we even think of selling off our infrastructure to foreign companies? Shame on us, shame on us for thinking about it. I will fight any Republican, any Democrat, anyone who wants to take our state from us."
"I don't know how you did it. The deck was so stacked against you...You inspire me, you will inspire other generations. God bless Texas and may it always stand as a free and sovereign nation," Kolkhorst concluded at the end of her emotional speech.

Founder Of Weather Channel Explains Global Warming Myth
John Coleman explains the “global warming myth” (KUSI-TV, 2009)
“Over and over again we’ve been told how the ice will melt, and the polar bears are going to die, how the coast will be flooded as the oceans rise, some islands totally wiped out, how powerful hurricanes are going to hit the shore, how millions will die as heat waves sweep the planet…” says Coleman.
And yet, human life flourishes during interglacials (nature’s global warming), and we almost all perish during ice ages when the earth becomes a huge ice cube.
Stop Swallowing GMO Poison
'In a recent interview on Infowars Nightly News (INN), international bestselling author Jeffrey M. Smith reveals in shocking detail the biotechnology industry's laundry list of perpetual crimes against humanity via its propagation of genetically-modified organisms (GMOs). Smith explains how biotech giant Monsanto, in particular, has rigged the entire system to push its deadly products on the populations of the world.
Citing numerous scientists and former industry representatives that are now blowing the whistle in regards to the corruption, Smith sheds light on the fraudulent "science" that continues to be used to thrust GMOs on the public, and the revolving door between the biotech industry and politics that allows it to continue.'

Senator Hatch Forced Through Naked TSA Body Scanner
'Republican Senator Orrin Hatch was forced to go through a TSA naked body scanner against his will, according to testimony heard at the Senate Judiciary Committee yesterday, as lawmakers complained to DHS head Janet Napolitano about the “baloney” Americans were forced to put up with at the hands of “arrogant” TSA screeners.
Despite the TSA’s official policy stating that travelers can select whether to pass through the radiation-firing body scanner or take an “enhanced pat down,” Utah Senator Hatch told Napolitano during the hearing that he wasn’t offered the choice.'

TSA Unleashes Army of Agents With Full Participation By Other Agencies
The full scale Department of Homeland Security takeover of America shifted into high gear Tuesday with an army of TSA agents conducting illegal, 4th amendment killing, random searches throughout Tennessee.
The Visible Intermodal Prevention and Response (VIPR) program was put into motion at 2 public bus stations as well as at 5 weigh stations throughout the state.
The program is billed as a must have anti terrorism measure when in reality no terrorists have ever been arrested by TSA and all the supposed terrorists who have been arrested in America since 9/11 have literally been run by the FBI.
In East Germany Stasi fashion, DHS officials are also recruiting multiple truck drivers in the area for their tell on your neighbors, see something say something program.
The underlying fact is that these random checkpoints and searches are NOT for terrorists,(they essentially do not exist without the help of the FBI) they are for everyday American people.
Freeze Dried FoodThis is evident when you consider that these searches are conducted by drug enforcement agents with drug sniffing dogs. We are basically expected to be so stupid as to believe that drug sniffing dogs at random checkpoints are somehow for terrorists and not the guy with a half smoked joint in his ashtray.
Health Canada Covering Up Radiation
After the Chernobyl nuclear disaster in 1986, Soviet officials were vilified for hiding the impacts from the public.
But when Japan’s Fukushima nuclear accident took place last March, public officials in Japan and Canada alike jumped straight into Chernobyl-style damage-control mode, dismissing any worries about impacts.
Now evidence has emerged that the radiation in Canada was worse than Canadian officials ever let on.
A Health Canada monitoring station in Calgary detected radioactive material in rainwater that exceeded Canadian guidelines during the month of March, according to Health Canada data obtained by the Georgia Straight.
Canadian government officials didn’t disclose the high radiation readings to the public. Instead, they repeatedly insisted that fallout drifting to Canada was negligible and posed no health concerns.
In fact, the data shows rainwater in Calgary last March had an average of 8.18 becquerels per litre of radioactive iodine, easily exceeding the Canadian guideline of six becquerels per litre for drinking water.
“It’s above the recommended level [for drinking water],” Eric Pellerin, chief of Health Canada’s radiation-surveillance division, admitted in a phone interview from Ottawa. “At any time you sample it, it should not exceed the guideline.”

No Food Radiation Screening In Japan
Greenpeace called on Tokyo to toughen radiation screening and food labelling rules on Thursday after it said low levels of radiation had been detected in seafood sold at Japanese stores.
The environmental pressure group said it tested 60 seafood samples bought at stores in eastern Japan operated by five major supermarket chains and found 34 of them with radioactive caesium-134 and caesium-137.
The survey discovered readings of up to 88 becquerel per kilogram with the radiation believed to be from the ongoing nuclear accident.
"While the samples are well below the 500 becquerel per kilogram limit set by the authorities, the contaminated seafood still represents a health risk, especially to pregnant women and children, and it is being distributed over a wide area," said Wakao Hanaoka, Greenpeace Japan oceans campaigner.
The Japanese standard compares with a 150 becquerel per kilogram limit in Ukraine after the 1986 Chernobyl disaster, the group said.
"More concerning, however, is that there is no labelling that notifies consumers if the seafood had been screened, making it impossible for them to make informed decisions," Hanaoka said in a statement.
The announcement came as Japanese consumers remain frustrated over limited information about the exact level of food contamination, while the government has sought to calm public fears and overcome mistrust of official radiation surveys.
NOTE: We can thank Hilary for opening up trade from Japan which doesn't require any testing of food items. If anything comes from Japan, do you really believe it won't have radiation?

Gunderson Discusses Fukushima Updates
Indicates increase in radiation from two months ago, which could not be from original releases. However, the continual incineration of radioactive material is in air filters that were recently replaced, which indicates that the Cesium is once again airborne.
NOTE: A cold shut down is impossible because the reactors have already melted down, all it means now is that the water in the reactors is below 100C

House Passes Bill Criminalizing Free Speech In US
If an American talks about using marijuana or other drugs in countries where such activity is perfectly legal, or even just discusses the hypothetical idea of such an activity with a friend or family member, he or she will be committing a felony crime under a heinous new bill recently passed by the US House Judiciary Committee.
Sponsored by Rep. Lamar Smith (R-Texas), the Drug Trafficking Safe Harbor Elimination Act of 2011 essentially applies US policies in the "War on Drugs" on the entire world, and makes it a crime for Americans to engage in, or even just talk about, activities that are legal abroad, but illegal back at home.
"Under this bill, if a young couple plans a wedding in Amsterdam, and as part of the wedding they plan to buy the bridal party some marijuana, they would be subject to prosecution," said Bill Piper, director of the national affairs for the Drug Policy Alliance, a group advocating for reform of US drug laws.
"The strange thing is that the purchase of and smoking the marijuana while you're there wouldn't be illegal. But this law would make planning the wedding from the US a federal crime."

Portuguese Military To Support People NOT Government
Got this from a portuguese-speaking friend's husband's facebook update
"This is really interesting. Basically, the Portuguese military has come out and announced that if the people riot, they are on the side of the people, not the government. Also, when journalists asked the military if they planned to revolt, their only response was "Revolutions are not announced ahead of time."
NOTE: And what about the US uniforms, Sheriffs, Deputies, Police, Military which side of the land do you stand on?

Vaccine Related Deaths
Gardasil, the controversial drug that took the early Republican presidential debates by storm, is back in the news as newly unearthed documents reveal 26 additional deaths associated with the shot designed to help prevent young women from getting a sexually transmitted disease that can lead to cervical cancer.
The public-interest group Judicial Watch has obtained the documents through the Freedom of Information Act from the Food and Drug Administration detailing reports of harmful reactions to the vaccination for human papillomavirus, also known as HPV.

$13,000 To "Decontaminate" Fukushima Home
Yet another fine example of how a government is so good at misallocating the resource. By pledging to pour hundreds of billions of yen (probably in trillions) into "decontaminating" Fukushima, the Japanese government has already spawned a brand-new industry of residential decontamination. Who are the industry participants? Cleaners, painters, just about anyone who has a high-pressure washer.
Some are apparently charging 1 million yen (US$13,000) to hose down your house. As you can see in the video in the previous post, their idea of "decontamination" looks little more than year-end cleanup. Power washing seems to somehow turn cleanup into "decontamination".
From Yomiuri Shinbun (10/19/2011):
東京電力福島第一原子力発電所事故による放射性物質の除染作業が本格化している福島県で、個人宅の除染に１００万円を業者から請求されるなどのトラブルが起き始めている。
As decontamination work gets underway in Fukushima Prefecture to remove radioactive materials from the Fukushima I Nuclear Power Plant accident, so do troubles with the decontamination contractors. Some are asking 1 million yen [US$13,000] to decontaminate a house.
費用を巡るトラブルは今後増える恐れがあり、標準的な作業内容や目安となる費用などを盛り込んだガイドラインを設ける必要性を指摘する声も出ている。
Disputes over the cost may increase in the future, and there are some who point out that there should be a guideline specifying what constitutes the standard decontamination work and the cost associated with it.
NOTE: It goes without saying that this is wasted money. Washing radiation into the ground will only further contaminate the soil, food, crops, people etc.

City Coucil Urges People To Evacuate Japan
Government lifted mandatory evacuation area for this place on 9/30.
Schools and elementary schools were re-opened, innocent people, and innocent children are coming back to the place.
I had my wife, kids, and employees all evacuate here. People worry about me. I much appreciate for it, but I just wish my body could be a fertilizer for the next generation.”
He knows he may die of exposure.
He became a city councilor since last December.
However, he noticed that Minami soma is not safe at all. He especially warns the risk of Strontium, which government has been rejecting to measure.
He drives around the city and is calling people to evacuate.
He shouts “We are not human guinea pig.”
He says, you can not decontaminate the place anymore.
He tells Japanese young people to leave Japan too.
He is trying to save people for his life.
Antibiotics Blamed For Skyrocketing Mental Illness
bacteria9 210x131 Antibiotics Could be to Blame for Skyrocketing Mental Illness RatesA new report published in the popular journal Nature has revealed that antibiotics are permanently destroying beneficial bacteria within the gut, a condition scientists link to mental illness. While it has been known for some time that antibiotics contribute to the development of drug-resistant superbugs and certain gut problems, the link between antibiotic use and mental illness through the permanent destruction of beneficial bacteria only further tops the pharmaceutical paradigm. In fact, the pharmaceutical paradigm set in place by drug makers is so vast that it actually offers drug-based ‘solutions’ to the very problems that drugs originally created!
After kids are given excessive amounts of antibiotics that lead to the destruction of their gut health and the subsequent onset of mental illness, they are then given deadly antipsychotics and other psychiatric drugs to ‘treat’ the condition that originated from pharmaceutical drug use. It is a system that, whether purposeful or not, generates large profits for many prescription-happy doctors and drug manufacturers alike. Perhaps the most troubling part of this system is the massive fraud committed by financially-invested corporations to stop the truth about these drugs and other mainstream medical ‘treatments’ from getting to the general public.

We Need To Grow Hemp
Congressman Ron Paul introduced H.R. 1831, the "Industrial Hemp Farming Act of 2011" on May 11th of this year. It is a simple bill at just two pages in length, and it would legalize the growing of industrial hemp in the United States.
Currently farmers can grow industrial hemp only if they have received a permit from the DEA - a prospect that the agency has made all but impossible for decades. Otherwise, it is illegal to grow.
Although Rep. Paul has introduced several bills like this one in the past, there are several reasons that this bill should be passed now. Hemp has an amazing number of uses. Its fiber can be used in carpeting, home furnishings, construction materials, auto parts, textiles, and paper. Its seeds can be used in food, industrial oils, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals. There are assertions, reported by The Guardian and in Biodiesel Magazine that using industrial hemp in biofuels instead of crops like corn and other feedstock provide greater environmental benefits. The expansion of industrial hemp as a feedstock for biofuels could also help to reduce oil imports.
Not only does hemp have a wide range of uses, but its cultivation in the United States could help to spur our lagging economy. Since the cultivation of hemp is outlawed in the United States, the U.S. market for hemp and hemp-based products is entirely dependent upon imports. A 2010 Congressional Research Service report cited an estimate that the U.S. market for hemp-based products may exceed $350 million annually.
NOTE:
The mere thought of Cannabis sativa excites the emotions, bringing wellness to many, fear & loathing to others.
Hemp was first domesticated by the Chinese around 2800 BC.
It was considered such an important healing, medicinal plant with numerous industrial uses, that the early American Colonists enacted a Virginia law in 1619 which REQUIRED HEMP PRODUCTION for all farmers. George Washington and Thomas Jefferson were Cannabis farmers.
How we've slipped from those earlier enlightened times when Hemp was the world's leading crop, to the dismal state of falsehoods spread about this herbal plant today is a twisted, winding true tale of intrigue, lies and special interests which include William Randolph Hearst, Dupont Chemicals, Timber and petroleum interests.
The House Ways and Means Committee secretly slipped the 1937 Marijuana Tax Act Bill into effect. Believe it or not, the American Medical Association was so outraged that they aggressively fought this legislation for two years before realizing the special interests, who gained from this tax, were too strong for them.
We can anticipate a stormy battle over this Super Food and medicinal plant for some time to come. But nothing to stop us from enjoying it's health benefits now, minus THC.
Hemp products are legal to purchase and use in the United States, but current federal laws prohibit growing it because of protected special interests. While our economy collapses some states are passing laws to grow and sell all forms of Cannabis sativa, within their state, in order to boost their sagging economies.

#Russell Means Winning Battle Against Terminal Cancer ~ Natural treatments only!
NOTE: This is inspirational for all of us. Just weeks ago Russell could barely speak, the cancer was in his throat and had spread to his neck and lungs. He wisely completely rejected all conventional medical industry. He used only prayer and natural therapy. He sounds terrific. Some of the therapy used are herbal, ceremonial, Oxygenation.
Bravo Russell!

Cancerous Truth About Aspartame
Aspartame, the artificial sweetener found in many diet sodas and used as an ‘alternative’ sweetener, has been found recently to have detrimental – specifically, cancerous – effects.
A study performed by researcher Victoria Innes-Brown, after mounting concerns with how much diet coke her family members seemed to consume daily, showed that of 48 rats experimented on up to 67 percent of all females developed tumors roughly the size of golf balls or larger. The male population didn’t do too well either: 21 percent of the males developed similar cancerous growths.'

Just as the British Empire was in part financed by their control of the opium trade through the British East India Company, so too has the CIA been found time after time to be at the heart of the modern international drug trade. From its very inception, the CIA has been embroiled in the murky underworld of drug trafficking.
There are billions of dollars per year to be made in keeping the drug trade going, and it has long been established that Wall Street and the major American banks rely on drug money as a ready source of liquid capital. With those kinds of funds at stake, it is unsurprising to see a media-government-banking nexus develop around the status quo of a never-ending war on drugs – aided, abetted and facilitated by the modern-day British East India Company, the CIA.'

Hospital Gestapo You May NEVER See Home Again
American hospitals have devised a scheme to guarantee they never get stuck with an unpaid bill. It’s called guardianship.
Thinking of checking into a hospital? Think again. You may never see home again.
Ginger Franklin, Hendersonville, Tennessee, fell down the stairs in her condo and suffered a bump on her head. She was declared “temporarily mentally incapacitated” and a guardian was appointed through the courts. Within six weeks, the guardian had soldFranklin’s home, car, furniture, and drained her bank account. Today,Franklin has her freedom back, but she is having to start all over.
Michael Kidd, 72, of Richardson, Texas, fell in his yard and broke a hip. Now, he is living in Countryside Nursing Home with his wife. Both were removed from their home when the state of Texas petitioned the courts claiming that the Kidds were mentally incompetent. Their house sits vacant and neglected, with rotting food still remaining in the refrigerator. The Kidds have been confined to a single room in the nursing home, while the state appointed guardian burns through their money an gives them a mere $60 a month spending allowance which they have been using to buy “real” food.
NOTE: Please read this article, it reveals detail after detail of heartbreaking story of deliberate theft and possibly murder

Is Angelican Church Guilty of Mohwak Children Genocide?
Mass graves of Mohawk children have been uncovered by ground-penetrating radar at the Mohawk Institute, a residential school for Mohawk operated by the Church of England and the Vatican before its closure in 1970.
According to Rev. Kevin Annett, Secretary of the International Tribunal for Crimes of Church and States (www.itccs.org), the Mohawk Institute was "set up by the Anglican Church of England in 1832 to imprison and destroy generations of Mohawk children. This very first Indian [First Nations] residential school in Canada lasted until 1970, and, like in most residential schools, more than half of the children imprisoned there never returned. Many of them are buried all around the school."
Preliminary scanning by ground penetrating radar adjacent to the now closed main building Mohawk Institute has revealed that "between 15-20 feet of soil" was brought in and put over the mass graves just before the Mohawk Institute closed in 1970 in order to camouflage the mass graves of Mohawk Children and avoid prosecution for genocide and crimes against humanity under the Geneva Conventions, the International Criminal Court, and cooperating national courts.'

ADHA Searches Now Focus 4-18 Years
The American Academy of Pediatrics this weekend expanded its guidelines for diagnosing and treating kids with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, recommending that doctors evaluate all patients aged four to 18 who show signs of the condition.
The new guidelines update decade-old recommendations that focused on diagnosing and managing ADHD in kids aged six to 12. But behavior problems, over-activity and trouble paying attention can show up earlier, researchers said, and ADHD often persists into adolescence or even adulthood.
Pediatricians should also look out for learning disabilities, anxiety and other issues that can go hand-in-hand with ADHD. And, they should tailor treatment with behavior therapy and medication based on kids’ age and severity of symptoms, says a statement published in Pediatrics.'
NOTE: Can't miss out on more business opportunities! Strike early, get people hooked on Big Pharma toxins for their entire lives. There is a huge surge in the symptoms associated with ADD and ADHD, however, as a Naturopath, I would look toward the cause, not just suppress the symptoms with horrible complications and side effects.
Interesting, that people who eat real, healthy, natural food, without any processed, industrial food, synthetics, steroids etc don't suffer from these disorders.

Who Controls Police?
NOTE: The speaker is correct, our governmental system is designed for the government to be our servants, not our masters. We are intended to be a nation of laws that are applicable to all, including our "representatives" who have seized control and believe themselves to be our masters.
