Vegetarians - did you know?

2011-12-02T10:46:00.001-08:00

Albert Einstein
Einstein in Western culture is synonymous with genius. Reports say he was vegetarian just for the last year of his life. However, he had a guilty conscience about eating meat, and agreed with the vegetarian outlook, "Although I have been prevented by outward circumstances from observing a strictly vegetarian diet, I have long been an adherent to the cause in principle. Besides agreeing with the aims of vegetarianism for aesthetic and moral reasons, it is my view that a vegetarian manner of living by its purely physical effect on the human temperament would most beneficially influence the lot of mankind."

Leonardo Da Vinci
One of the greatest inventors in all of human history, it is believed he was also a lifelong vegetarian who chose such a diet to avoid killing or injuring other creatures.

Nikola Tesla
He invented at least 700 devices, and was both an engineer and visionary. The form of electricity you are using right now to power your computer (alternating current) resulted from the work of Nikola Tesla. Most accounts say Tesla moved gradually towards a vegetarian diet, first by eliminating meat but still eating fish, and then by quitting that also. He wasn't vegan though, as he used dairy milk as his main protein source, after abandoning meat.

"It is certainly preferable to raise vegetables, and I think, therefore, that vegetarianism is a commendable departure from the established barbarous habit. That we can subsist on plant food and perform our work even to advantage is not a theory, but a well-demonstrated fact." (Source: IVU.org)

Srinivasa Ramanujan
One of India's greatest mathematicians, he was also a strict vegetarian.

Gandhi
The man is iconic enough that no description here is required. He was vegetarian most of his life."If we are to be nonviolent, we must then not wish for anything on this earth which even the meanest or the lowest of human beings cannot have."

Vincent Van Gogh
He is considered one of the world's most original fine art painters. Although various websites list him as a vegetarian mostly, there are some references to his accepting meat once in a while. This may be because of his lifestyle and living in conditions where other people were trying to take care of him, and he didn't want to offend them.

"In the afternoon, at the table, the three of us would eat with the appetite of famished wolves; not he, he would not eat meat, only a little morsel on Sundays, and then only after being urged by our landlady for a long time. Four potatoes with a suspicion of gravy and a mouthful of vegetables constituted his whole dinner. To our insistence that he make a hearty dinner and eat meat, he would answer, To a human being physical life ought to be a paltry detail; vegetable food is sufficient, all the rest is luxury."

Thomas Edison
Mr. Edison was credited with over 1,000 inventions.There are some references to him having stopped eating meat for health reasons, "During the recent illness, from mastoiditis, of Mr. Thos. Alva Edison, the famous inventor ceased using meat and went for a thorough course of vegetarianism. Mr. Edison was so pleased with the change of diet that, now he has regained his normal health, he continues to renounce meat in all it's forms."

There are also a number of quotes attributed to him indicating a love of animals and condemning violence towards them.

Pythagoras
This Greek philosopher and mathematician was also a vegetarian. In the writings of Ovid, he was depicted as having said, "Alas, what wickedness to swallow flesh into our own flesh, to fatten our greedy bodies by cramming in other bodies, to have one living creature fed by the death of another."

Mark Twain
Samuel Langhorne Clemens was one of America's most beloved writers. He is listed as a vegetarian on various sites such as About.com and Wikipedia. He was also against using animals in research and for educational purposes.

"I believe I am not interested to know whether Vivisection produces results that are profitable to the human race or doesn't. To know that the results are profitable to the race would not remove my hostility to it. The pains which it inflicts upon unconsenting animals is the basis of my enmity towards it, and it is to me sufficient justification of the enmity without looking further." (Source: Twainquotes.com)

Franz Kafka
A writer of some of the most memorable German-language fiction, Franz Kafka was also a vegetarian. He is believed to have said this when visiting an aquarium, "Now at least I can look at you in peace. I don't eat you anymore." That was after he became a vegetarian.

Inspiration with Katie Melua - The Flood

Beautiful Spiritual Lyrics

Listen to Katie Melua's song,

The Flood, and meditate on the words.

Surrender to the Higher Will.

Let go of Preconceived Notions.

As long as you hold on desperately to any "Stone",

the Floods will come to Teach you...

You are not in charge.

Surrender.

Get in touch with your Heart

and leave your personal prison.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PoVIXtVOHMk

Songwriters: Guy Chambers, Lauren Christie, Katie Melua

Broken people get recycled
And I hope that I will
Sometimes we're thrown off our pathways
What I thought was my way home
Wasn't the place I know

I'm certain nothing's certain
What we own becomes our prison
My possessions will be gone
Back to where they came from

Blame, no one is to blame
As natural as the rain that falls
Here comes the flood again

See the rock that you hold onto
Is it gonna save you
When the earth begins to crumble?
Why do you feel you have to hold on?
Imagine if you let go

Blame, no one is to blame
As natural as the rain that falls
Here comes the flood again

Wash away the weight
That pulls you down
Ride the waves
That free you from the dusk?

Don't trust your eyes
Its easy to believe them
Know in your heart
That you can leave your prison

Don't trust your mind
It's not always listening
Turn on the lights
And feel the ancient rhythm

Don't trust your eyes
Its easy to believe them
Know in your heart
That you can leave your prison

Blame, no one is to blame
As natural as the rain that falls
Here comes the flood again

Opening the Heart Centre

2011-09-20T09:56:00.001-07:00

To have the heart centre open is to feel bonded with all others and one with life.

It is to know joy and peace and to understand that love is knowing the fit of self with other – other people and life as a whole.

To have the heart centre open is to have no enemy, not within self nor without. The shades of self-doubt and fear of other are banished.

To have the heart centre open is to love every day and every heartbeat. It is to know the point of it all, apart from concepts and theories. This knowingness is connected to the sense of the fit of self with other.

To have the heart centre open is to love the Earth and everything that moves and takes its place upon it. Spiritual discipline consists in applying this knowingness to benefit all kingdoms in nature.

Through the opened heart centre the nobility of man and, indeed, the very point of him is revealed. Every opened heart is a sunrise for our Logos, a new day in creation.

Who has known the power of the human heart can never be cynical, nor fear himself. Thus he can be himself.

With love to my brother.

BAHA'I

"What will be the food of the future?" "Fruit and grains. The time will come when meat will no longer be eaten. Medical science is only in its infancy, yet it has shown that our natural diet is that which will grow out of the ground. The people will gradually develop up to the condition of this natural food."
'Abdu'l-Bahá, in Julia M. Grundy, Ten Days in the Light of Akka, Bahá'í Publishing Trust, Wilmette, 1979, pp. 8-9.

"As humanity progresses, meat will be used less and less, for the teeth of man are not carnivorous … The human teeth, the molars, are formed to grind grain. The front teeth, the incisors, are for fruits, etc. It is therefore quite apparent, according to the implements for eating, man's food is intended to be grain and not meat. When mankind is more fully developed the eating of meat will gradually cease."
'Abdu'l-Bahá, from "Star of the West", Vol.III, No.10, p29.
http://www.bcca.org/services/srb/texts.html

"[T]o blessed animals the utmost kindness must be shown, the more the better. Tenderness and loving-kindness are basic principles of God's heavenly Kingdom. Ye should most carefully bear this matter in mind."
'Abdu'l-Bahá, Selections from the Writings of 'Abdu'l-Bahá, complied by the Universal House of Justice, Bahá'í Publishing Trust, Wilmette, 1996, p. 168.

"[I]t is not only their fellow human beings that the beloved of God must treat with mercy and compassion, rather must they show forth the utmost loving-kindness to every living creature. For in all physical respects, and where the animal spirit is concerned, the selfsame feelings are shared by animal and man. Man hath not grasped this truth, however, and he believeth that physical sensations are confined to human beings, wherefore is he unjust to the animals, and cruel. And yet in truth, what difference is there when it cometh to physical sensations? The feelings are one and the same, whether ye inflict pain on man or on beast. There is no difference here whatever. And indeed ye do worse to harm an animal, for man hath a language, he can lodge a complaint, he can cry out and moan; if injured he can have recourse to the authorities and these will protect him from his aggressor. But the hapless beast is mute, able neither to express its hurt nor take its case to the authorities ... Therefore it is essential that ye show forth the utmost consideration to the animal, and that ye be even kinder to him than to your fellow man. Train your children from their earliest days to be infinitely tender and loving to animals. If an animal be sick, let them try to heal it, if it be hungry, let them feed it, if thirsty, let them quench its thirst, if weary, let them see that it rests."
'Abdu'l-Bahá, Selections from the Writings of 'Abdu'l-Bahá, complied by the Universal House of Justice, Bahá'í Publishing Trust, Wilmette, 1996, p. 167.

"Regarding the eating of animal flesh and abstinence therefrom, know thou of a certainty that, in the beginning of creation, God determined the food of every living being, and to eat contrary to that determination is not approved. For instance, beasts of prey, such as the wolf, lion and leopard, are endowed with ferocious, tearing instruments, such as hooked talons and claws. From this it is evidence that the food of such beasts is meat … But now coming to man, we see he hath neither hooked teeth nor sharp nails or claws, nor teeth like iron sickles. From this it becometh evident and manifest that the food of man is cereal and fruit. Some of the teeth of man are like millstones to grind the grain, and some are sharp to cut the fruit. Therefore he is not in need of meat, nor is he obliged to eat it. Even without eating meat he would live with the utmost vigour and energy … Truly, the killing of animals and the eating of their meat is somewhat contrary to pity and compassion, and of one can content oneself with cereals, fruit, oil and nuts, such as pistachios, almonds and so on, it would undoubtedly be better and more pleasing."
From a Tablet of 'Abdu'l-Bahá to an individual believer, Selections from the Bahá'í Writings on Some Aspects of Health and Healing, a compilation of the Universal House of Justice, Bahá'í Publishing Trust, New Delhi, 1974, pp. 7-8.

"Thou hast written regarding the four canine teeth in man, saying that these teeth, two in the upper jaw and two in the lower jaw, are for the purpose of eating meat. Know though that these four teeth are not created for meat-eating, although one can eat meat with them. All the teeth of man are made for eating fruit, cereals and vegetables. These four teeth, however, are designed for breaking hard shells, such as those of almonds."
From a Tablet of 'Abdu'l-Bahá to an individual believer, Selections from the Bahá'í Writings on Some Aspects of Health and Healing, a compilation of the Universal House of Justice, Bahá'í Publishing Trust, New Delhi, 1974.

"It is certain, however, that if a man can live on a purely vegetarian diet and thus avoid killing animals, it would be much preferable."
Shoghi Effendi, quoted in Lights of Guidance: A Baha'i Reference file.

Furthermore, 'Abdu'l-Baha said, "Fruits and grains (will be the foods of the future). The time will come when meat will no longer be eaten. Medical science is only in its infancy, yet it has shown that our natural diet is that which grows out of the ground."
Quoted from Baha'u'llah and the New Era by J.E. Esslemont.

On the subject of compassion 'Abdu'l-Baha wrote: "Truly, the killing of animals and the eating of their meat is somewhat contrary to pity and compassion."
Quoted in Lights of Guidance: A Baha'i Reference file.

Regarding the treatment of animals 'Abdu'l-Baha wrote: "Briefly, it is not only their fellow human beings that the beloved of God must treat with mercy and compassion, rather must they show forth the utmost loving-kindness to every living creature."
From Selections from the Writings of 'Abdu'l-Baha.

"He should show kindness to animals, how much more unto his fellow man, to him who is endowed with the power of utterance."
Bah'u'llh, "The Kitb-i-qn" (Book of Certitude), p. 194.

"Take heed, however, that ye hunt not to excess. Tread ye the path of justice and equity in all things. Thus biddeth you He Who is the Dawning-place of Revelation, would that ye might comprehend."
Bah'u'llh, "The Kitb-i-Aqdas" (Most Holy Book), 60, p. 40.

"Burden not an animal with more than it can bear. We, truly, have prohibited such treatment through a most binding interdiction in the Book. Be ye the embodiments of justice and fairness amidst all creation."
Bah'u'llh, "The Kitb-i-Aqdas" (Most Holy Book), 187, p. 87

"`Abdu'l-Bah has indicated that in the future human beings will be vegetarians, but abstention from eating meat is not a law of this Dispensation."
The Universal House of Justice, Dec 16, 1998, "Traditional practices in Africa."

"We returned to the garden, where Abu'l-Qasim made tea for us, and there he told us the story of the locusts. How that during one hot summer there had been a pest of locusts and they had consumed most of the foliage in the surrounding country. One day Abu'l-Qasim saw a thick cloud coming swiftly towards the garden, and in a moment thousands of locusts were covering the tall trees beneath which Bah'u'llh so often sat. Abu'l-Qasim hastened to the house at the end of the garden and coming before his Lord besought Him, saying: 'My Lord, the locusts have come, and are eating away the shade from above Thy blessed head. I beg of Thee to cause them to depart.' The Manifestation smiled, and said: 'The locusts must be fed; let them be.' Much chagrined, Abu'l-Qasim returned to the garden and for some time watched the destructive work in silence; but presently, unable to bear it, he ventured to return again to Bah'u'llh and humbly entreat Him to send away the locusts. The Blessed Perfection arose and went into the garden and stood beneath the trees covered with the insects. Then He said: 'Abu'l-Qasim does not want you; God protect you.' And lifting up the hem of His robe He shook it, and immediately all the locusts arose in a body and flew away."
Adib Taherzadeh, "The Revelation of Bah'u'llh," v. 4, pp. 29-30.

"`Abdu'l-Bah said that treatment of disease and ailments will in the future be through foods and waters and that eventually mankind will become vegetarian; Bah'u'llh advocated a simple diet and not to mix many foods at one meal I remember a Jain sadhu in India This Jain had just become a Bah' and looking at me with tears in his eyes, he said he really could not eat meat. I said whoever told him he should? It had nothing to do with being a Bah'; he could live and die a vegetarian."
Rhyyih Rabbani, "A Manual for Pioneers", pp. 170-171.

Ron Paul legalize marijuana!

2011-06-23T07:24:00.001-07:00

(NaturalNews) Four decades of the so-called "War on Drugs" has led only to the suffering of millions of innocents, the crowding of our prisons with non-violent citizens, the utter waste of billions of dollars on law enforcement and the (in)justice system, and the enriching of underground drug gangs who thrive on violence. The outlawing of marijuana in America has been a disastrous political policy and an insane medical policy. It has labeled biochemical addicts "criminals" and thrown them in prisons to be treated like dogs.

The War on Drugs, through interdicting street supplies ofdrugs, has only made thedruggangs wealthier by driving up the value of the drugs that remain readily available. And it is now admitted that the ATF actually placed tens of thousands of weapons directly into the hands of Mexican drug gangs, giving rise to the very gangviolencethe agency claims to be preventing (http://www.reuters.com/article/2011...).

The U.S.government, it turns out, is actuallycontributingto the drug war violence!

Ron Paul, Barney Frank join forces to end the insanity

In an effort to end the insanity, Rep. Ron Paul has joined forces with Rep. Barney Frank to introduce legislationlegalizing marijuana inAmerica. President Obama, you may recall, promised voters on the campaign trail that he would do this, too, but it seems he's been too busy bombing Libya and using the U.S. Constitution as a floor mat to bother keeping any actual promises. (GITMO is still open forbusiness, too, in case you haven't noticed...)

Of course, the War on Drugs is a very effectivetool oftyrannyto be used against the American people. It empowersthe DEAand the federal government to conduct surprise searches of any home or business for any reason whatsoever (even without a warrant), it keeps the prison industry overflowing with endless cheap human labor, and it grants the big drug companies amonopolyover all those recreational drugs that are now sold as pharmaceuticals.

"Speed," for example, is now sold as an ADHD treatment for children.Big Pharmais also going after THC chemicals in marijuana and hopes to sell them as prescription drugs. By keeping the War on Drugs in place, Big Pharma is assureda monopolythat even the drug lords haven't been able to accomplish.

An issue that crosses political boundaries

One thing that's especially interesting about the so-called War on Drugs is how the best-informedpeopleon both the left and the right now see it all as a complete fraud. Perhaps that's why Rep. Ron Paul (Republican) and Rep. Barney Frank (Democrat) are the perfect sponsors of this bill. Each has staked out positions on the opposite ends of the political spectrum for some issues, yet they both agree that it's time to end the failed Nixon-era policies that have only brought this nation suffering and injustice.

Ending the failed War on Drugs is not a conservative idea nor a liberal idea; it'sa principle of libertywhose time has come in America.

Because in observing the War on Drugs, the prison crowding, the drug underground economy and all the other unintended consequence of marijuana prohibition, we must ask the question:Issocietyserved in any way by criminalizing marijuanasmokers?How does taking a medical addict and throwing them behind bars accomplish anything at all?

The prohibition against marijuana accomplishes nothing for society

For starters, it halts the contributions of ataxpaying citizen. Most pot smokers actually have jobs and paytaxes. They are functioning citizens -- lawyers, accountants, musicians, administrators and more. By throwing them in prison, you're destroying their own ability to participate in the economy while actually placing a new cost burden on the rest of society.

Secondly, from a moral perspective, pot smokers needmedicalsupport, not criminal indictment. If someone is suffering from a substanceaddiction, how does throwing them in prison and surrounding them with other addicts and hardenedcriminalsserve any positive purpose whatsoever? Today, U.S.prisonsactually function more likecriminal training campswhere people come out as far more violent criminals than when they went in. So the justice system actually ends up capturing people who are relatively peaceful, tax-paying citizens and thenturning them into hardened criminalswho are eventually released onto the streets.

How insane is that?

Wouldn't it make more sense to allow them to continue to function in society buthelp them with their drug addictionthrough a medical / health perspective? Addicts need support, not incarceration. And today's justice system does absolutely nothing to rehabilitate prisoners. It only makes them far worse criminals.

And finally, from an economic perspective alone, can any U.S. state really afford to continue incarcerating people for non-violent crimes that haveno victims?Who is harmed with a guy down the street lights up a joint? No one. There are no victims. There is nocrime, either, other than the fictional crime the State fabricates to incarcerate people.

A "real" crime is a crime that has a victim: A rape, a burglary, a mugging, or a murder. Those crimes deserve proper consideration by the justice system, and people who commit such crimes are precisely the kind of people society can justifiably put behind bars. But carrying a few ounces of marijuana in your pocket -- or even lighting up a smoke -- violates no person or property. Nor does it violate any moral or ethical principle. It is, in every way, an act that is improperly and unjustifiably criminalized through legal fictions engineered by the state.

The solution to marijuana prohibition is finally at hand

It is time to end those legal fictions and end the War on Drugs in America. The solution is to:

#1) LEGALIZE marijuana across the country.

#2) REGULATE marijuana and allow it to be sold through licensed retailers.

#3) TAX marijuana sales and use the tax proceeds to fund addiction support programs for those small percentage of users who end up addicted.

The results of these actions will be:

#1) A COLLAPSE of the drug gangs. If marijuana is suddenly legal, who would bother buying it from a street dealer?

#2) A COLLAPSE of drug profits. If it's legal, the price goes down. Suddenly there's no moremoneyin trafficking the drug, either, so the drug gangs are instantly out of business.

#3) A HUGE INCREASE in revenues to the states from collecting taxes on the legal sale of marijuana.

#4) A REDUCTION in young people trying the drug. What teenager wants to try something if it's LEGAL? Legalizing pot takes all the "fun" out of it for many young people. It's no longer cool. Kinda boring, actually. And it makes you cough.

#5) A SAVINGS of billions of dollars off all the money states are right now spending arresting, prosecuting and incarcerating people for possessing marijuana. This money could be used to build schools, roads, job re-education programs and more. And don't court judges have better things to do than sentence pot smokers?

#6) AN END to prison overcrowding. End the sentences for those incarcerated merely for marijuana possession. Set them free and end the prison crowding.Save the prisons for the real criminalssuch as murderers,childmolesters and Wall Street bankers.

#7) A FREER, more just society that respects human dignity. If you treat addicts like criminals, you take away their dignity, and your entire society suffers a net loss. By recognizing the humanity behind the addiction, we canrestore human dignityto the entire process of how we deal with drug addicts in society today.

Action item: Call your Congressman to support this bill!

Here's what you can do right now to help support this bill: Call your Congressman in Washington D.C. and tell them you want to support the bill to end the federal ban on marijuana.

The switchboard number is 202-224-3121.

If you live in the U.S. or are a U.S. citizen,call this number now, ask to be connected to your Congressperson, and verbally express your support for the bill tolegalize marijuanaacross America.

It is time to end the failed War on Drugs, stop the useless incarceration of millions of innocent people, and halt the tyranny of theDEAand other federal agencies thatwastebillions of dollars every year stalking and assaulting people who merely want to smoke a weed.

I don't smoke weed, by the way, but as a person who believes in the principles of freedom and liberty, I fully support the rights of others to smoke marijuana if they so choose. Similarly, I don't drinkalcohol, but I support the rights of other to drink alcohol if that's their decision. As a nation, we tried prohibition with alcohol and it was a disaster. Now we're living through the era of marijuana prohibition, and it is a disastrous failure as well. Isn't it time we grew up as a nation and allowed people to take responsibility for their own actions as long as they aren't harming anyone else in the process?

Smoke all you want, folks! I'm gonna have a superfood smoothie instead.

The Media does not want us to look at this

2011-05-10T10:21:00.001-07:00

(NaturalNews) Several Japanese are crying out about what is going on in Japan.Hirose Takashiis telling us that, "The nuclear power plants in Japan are aging rapidly; like cyborgs, they are barely kept in operation by a continuous replacement of parts. And now that Japan has entered a period of earthquake activity and a major accident could happen at any time, the people live in constant state of anxiety."

Toshiso Kosako, a University of Tokyo professor, that has been employed since mid-March as a nuclear advisor to thegovernmentof Prime MinisterNaoto Kanin Japan, quit with disgust at what the government andnuclearindustry is doing to thechildren. In his April 29 resignation, Kosako blinked back tears and accused the Japanese leadership of ignoring his advice on how to handle the nuclear crisis, particularly the setting of radiation limits for schools. Kosako even charged that the government had not fully complied with the law in its response to the nuclear disaster. "There is no point for me to be here," Kosako said in a tense press conference.

Click here to see the video about radiation test in North Carolina.

I climbed this mountain inNorth Carolinawith Dutch right after publishing "Beyond the Door" on Monday. Even after all the devastating information I have been publishing about the nuclear disaster, I was shaken. It is not easy to understand the implications and follow the math of what is happening in the northern hemisphere but let's try.

One can go absolutely crazy trying to track and understand units of radioactivity and by the end of thisarticleI hope to have made it comprehensible. Fortunately for me physics was my favorite subject and I did teach a semester of it in a technical college many years ago in Maine. So confusing though are the many different units that even for me the challenge is daunting. (Actually I will get around to a physics lecture in another essay.)

Bottom Line:Ten-thousand terabecquerels (10,000,000,000,000,000 becquerels) ofradioactivesubstances will be released intothe atmospherefrom the plant during the coming three months, according to simple calculations based on the estimated emission rate as ofApril5. It is now safe to assume that there will be a lot of radiation circling at high altitudes and all that stuff is going to come down everywhere eventually, especially when it rains or snows. Where is all this radiation coming from?

Amounts of radiation as far as 60km from the Fukushmianuclear powerplant have measured far above the levels measured in Chernobyl. Dr. Chris Busby

"I've been studying overhead photographs ofFukushima. It is very disturbing," said Robert Alvarez, formerly a senior policy adviser at the Energy Department under Clinton. "The steel wall of the pool seems to show damage. All the surrounding equipment, including the two cranes, has been destroyed. There is smoke coming from reactor No. 3, and steam coming from the spent-fuel pool next to it. That indicates that thewaterin the pool is boiling.

"And that means the spent-fuel rods are getting hot and could start burning. If the rods start to burn, huge amounts of radioactive material would be released into the atmosphere and would disperse across the northern hemisphere. Unlike the reactors, spent-fuel pools are not -- I repeat not -- housed in any sort of hardened or sealed containment structures. Rather, thefuelrods are packed tightly together in pools of water that are often several stories above ground..." continued Alvarez.

Dr. Chris Busby said that three spent-fuel pools have burned, which he calculates puts the radiation levels at 24,000 Hiroshimas x 3 spent-fuel pools, or 72,000 times the radiation ofHiroshimanow in the atmosphere. This amount represents only that from the spent-fuel pools. Radiation will continue to escape from the reactors until entombed. Perhaps it would have been better if we had fought a limited nuclear war instead!

What's the official story? Radioactive levels were about250 times higher than a month before. TEPCO said the levels ofcaesium-134 and -137 increased about 250-foldand iodine-131 increased about 12 times compared with one month ago, after the accident had already happened. The water level in the No. 4 reactor's turbine building rose by 20 centimeters in 10 days. TEPCO hasdetected 8,100 becquerels of caesium-137and 7,800 becquerels of caesium-134 per cubic centimeter in the water in the turbine building's basement. The utility company said on Tuesday the 26th of April that the water level in the tunnel of the No. 3 reactor rose by 10 centimeters over three days.

Of course all this radiation at the plant is hampering work to bring the accident under control. If trends continue it might easily become impossible to approach the plant, meaning the chances of ever getting the disaster under control are decreasing with each passing week.

Most of us are inshock-- the consequences are so dramatic and will be with us for so long it is beyond most people's psychological capacity to deal with the full reality, and governments are happy to assist in ensuring that we stay in our comfort, not panic, zone.

We are in the middle of a planet-changing historiceventthat has extinction oflifewritten all over it, and the best evidence we have of this is actually seen in the complete censorship of hard facts about this nuclear disaster by the media and our government.

Click here to see the video.

Everyone should watch thisvideoat least twice. Dr. Chris Busby is the number one most trusted scientist in the world on this and the implications are stupendous. This is so bad that they cannot talk about it in the media at all and that's exactly what they are doing, not talking at all.

When Busby says this is a serious matter, he is meaning serious in terms of life anddeath. I have friends in Hawaii and many on the west coast in California and they all have front-row seats to the open nuclear furnaces inJapan. I wish I was allowed to start cursing in public, meaning my language would turn fowl right at this very particular point.

Plutonium goes up into the air in hugeexplosionand we hear nothing of it? Where is theplutoniumstory? Where did it go or is it going into the lungs of millions in the northern hemisphere as we speak? They might as well have pulled up front-row seats as whenpeopleactually watched the atomic bomb blasts!

The Plutonium Angel of Death
Plutonium represents certain death; it is death, concentrated in nuclear form. Riders of death come swooping down from the upper air currents on plutonium steeds and just one tiny particle of it has a deadly effect if it touches down anywhere inside of human or beast. But don't worry about this and do what your governments want you to do. They want you to proceed with your life as if everything is normal. And while you do, they want you to spend and borrow and do anything you can to keep the deteriorating economy andfinancialsystem from collapsing altogether. The last thing they want you to know is that an alien race of nuclear super particles called plutonium are gathering and scattering around the world like Hun Hordes. We have this going on already with mercury and other heavy metals and chemicals; now thetoxicsoup on our planet is going nuclear in a big way and it will continue that way into an increasingly toxic and frightening future. We have just had another disaster on day 11 and it has already changed the world in a very dirty and nuclear direction.

I really hope I am coming in loud and clear. Geiger counters measure decays but they do not tell you what kinds of particles are decaying. It is confusing, it is invisible and not even our Geiger counters tell us the whole story of increasing dangers that surround us. Anyone who thinks life is going to be the same on our planet with multiple open nuclear sores ripping apart the soft skin of our ecology and physiology is mistaken.

Nuclearharmhappens in ultra slow motion. Yes it can happen in days, weeks and months to a few but the harm to the many happens in the years and decades that follow. We don't look down and see that we are now sterile until we cannot participate in a conception. Cancer does not start between one day and the next. But these days tornadoes do.

Nature Threatens

Deadly tornado outbreaks are attacking the underbelly ofAmerica, killing and destroying many and much. Yesterday the storms dealt a severe blow to the Tennessee Valley Authority on Wednesday,causing three nuclear reactors in Alabama to shut down,knocking out 11 high-voltagepowerlines, the utility and regulators said. All three units at TVA's 3,274-megawatt Browns Ferry nuclear plant in Alabama tripped about 5:30 EDT (2230 GMT) after losing outside power to the plant, a spokesman for the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Agency said.

Theearthis literally blowing its top (volcanic activity) and we are already threatened with intense cooling because of the materials being vented into the atmosphere from not one but many volcanoes coming to life. And yet geologists are hinting we have not even come close to the opening curtain where the intensifying earthquakes and eruptions come to a climax.

Click here to see the video.

The earth beneath these Japanese feet is not stable andneither is the entire worldas we have just recently entered an era of dramatically increasing seismic and volcanic activity. Most of us are used to watching just about everything from our arm chairs in front of our television sets but today world events are beginning to come down just about everyone's block. If it's not flooding it isdroughtand fire and if it's not record-breaking temperatures in terms of heat its record-breaking cold.

Will Japan ever stop shaking? A 6.0 quake brings aftershock total to 1,071 in 43 days since the atomic disaster began. None of these quakes are bringing any rest to those who fear the breaking of one more pipe at the nuclear plant. We actually have a lot more to worry about now than ever, though the serious worrying should have started decades ago before they built nuclearplantsin dangerous places all over the world.

On April 7, just one month after the 3/11earthquakein northeastern Japan, there was a large aftershock. At the Rokkasho Reprocessing Plant the electricitywas shut off. The pool containing nuclear fuel and the radioactive liquidwastewere (barely) cooled down by the emergency generators, meaning that Japan was brought to the brink of destruction. But the Japanese media, as usual, paid this almost no notice.

The Rokkasho Reprocessing Plant is where expended nuclear fuel from all of Japan'snuclear power plantsis collected, and then reprocessed so as to separate out the plutonium, the uranium, and the remaining highly radioactive liquid waste. In short, it is the most dangerous factory in the world.

At the Rokkasho plant, 240 cubic meters of radioactive liquid waste are now stored. A failure to take care of this properly couldleadto a nuclear catastrophe surpassing the meltdown of a reactor. This liquid waste continuously generates heat, and must be constantly cooled. But if an earthquake were to damage the cooling pipes or cut off theelectricity, the liquid would begin to boil. According to an analysis prepared by the German nuclear industry, an explosion of this facility could expose persons within a 100 kilometer radius from the plant to radiation 10 to 100 times the lethal level, which presumably means instant death.

There are many accidents waiting to happen and many happening that we are not paying close attention to like the hugeoilleak now happening in the Arctic Circle.

Food Crisis is Intensifying

Since from before the nuclear crisis we were already entering a terrible disaster in terms offoodsecurity and now this month the president of the World Bank has warned that the world is "one shock away from a full-blown crisis." Robert Zoellick cited risingfood pricesas the main threat to poor nations who risk "losing a generation."

Prayers in Europe this Easter holiday weekend are not being heard in the heavens (or by anyone else around the world it seems) as they face serious fears over the wheat harvest, its impact on already sky-high global foodpricesand, of course, devastating brush fires all from the lack of rain. We are not hearing much from China but their wheat also is not coming up strongly because of drought. Texas is in realdangerof burning to the ground and exploding with all the oil wells andnaturalgas they have all around with their worst drought in memory taking the state down.

Commodities have been goingabsolutely ballisticfor months. Price increases in other commodities like wheat, beans, andrice, which have, for the most part, been subdued on the consumer retail side because companies were willing to take the margin compression for a while, are now becoming a painful reality. Provident Living, a huge food storage and dry goods distribution organization for the Latter Day Saints has alerted their members that prices are up from between 11% to 49% on basic food staples.The most stunning aspect of the price increases is that they have occurred not in the last year, but over the last 90 days.

Nature has suddenly turned forcibly against us and we find out we are vulnerable and nowhere more so than with the foods we depend on to live. I know most are hoping for a return to normalcy, even the Federal Reserve, which wants to stop the emergency buying of every government bond in sight. But if interest rates go up, America is finished. In fact many people feel and think it is sinking fast and one look at the landscape of municipal, city, state and federal finances tells a story of imminent collapse.

To Meditate On

2011-05-02T00:37:00.001-07:00

Be generous in prosperity,

and thankful in adversity.

Be worthy of the trust of thy neighbor,

and look upon him with a bright and friendly face.

Be a treasure to the poor,

an admonisher to the rich,

an answerer of the cry of the needy,

a preserver of the sanctity of thy pledge.

Be fair in thy judgment,

and guarded in thy speech.

Be unjust to no man,

and show all meekness to all men.

Be as a lamp unto them that walk in darkness,

a joy to the sorrowful,

a sea for the thirsty,

a haven for the distressed,

an upholder and defender of the victim of oppression.

Let integrity and uprightness distinguish all thine acts.

Be a home for the stranger,

a balm to the suffering,

a tower of strength for the fugitive.

Be eyes to the blind,

and a guiding light unto the feet of the erring.

Be an ornament to the countenance of truth,

a crown in the brow of fidelity,

a pillar of the temple of righteousness,

a breath of life to the body of mankind,

an ensign of the host of justice,

a luminary above the horizon of virtue,

a dew to the soil of the human heart,

an ark on the ocean of knowledge,

a sun in the heaven of bounty,

a gem on the diadem of wisdom,

a shining light in the firmament of thy generation,

a fruit upon the tree of humanity.

War on Cancer is stupid illusion

2011-04-21T13:03:00.001-07:00

(NaturalNews) The war on cancer is a hoax. This is what two time Nobel Prize winner Dr. Linus Paul said years ago. Notice he didn't say failure. He said hoax. Cancer deaths have greatly accelerated since then and have become the number one disease killer, surpassing strokes and heart disease. (1)

The only war waged by the cancer industry has been against alternative cancer cures that are efficacious, inexpensive, and non-toxic. The cancer industry wants your business so badly they're ignoring or marginalizing most realcancer preventionpossibilities.

Here are a few cancerpreventionsuggestions.

Vitamin D3

Most of us are highly deficient with this quasi vitamin-hormone. Exposing your skin to direct sunlight helps your body manufacture it, and you can supplement D3 as well. Both D3 sources are recommended since most of us have very low blood D3 counts. Despite the rumors, you can't OD on D3. A recent study featured by Mike Adams discovered up to 40,000 IUs per day is safe.(2)

Most knowledgeablehealthpractitioners recommend five to ten thousand IUs per day. It's estimated that adequate Vitamin D3, which is way beyond the official recommended dosage, will cut yourcancerrisk in half.

Avoid Toxicity

The verdict is in. Cancer is a man madedisease. Our surroundings from inside our homes to our air,water, and food are heavily contaminated and carcinogenic.

It's necessary to throw out all your commercial cleaning agents, detergents, insecticides, and cosmetics and to replace them withnaturaltoxin free items. They are carcinogenic.(3) So is second hand cigarette smoke. Tap water is often chlorinated and fluoridated: both additives are carcinogenic and more. Use water that's been purified through reverse osmosis at least.

Avoid vaccinations. They actually destroy your immunity. Decades ago, the poliovaccinewas created using SV 40 (Simian Virus 40). Then a government health official, Dr. Bernice Eddy, publicly warned of a cancer epidemic if the carcinogenic SV 40 wasn't removed. She was fired for that, but furtherresearchand the acceleration of cancer victims indicate she was right.(4)

Detox

Withindustrypollution, chemtrails, and now increasedradiationdangers, including mammograms and TSA madness, it's impossible to avoid all toxins. We shoulddetoxas often as possible, perhaps once a month.

Coffee enemas and gall bladder flushes (5); coloncleansingenemas (6); cilantro and chlorella (7); activated charcoal slurries (8); and zeolite. Also research the items needed to protect against the latest increased toxin, radiation.(9)

Diet

Eliminate processedfoods, GMO foods, MSG, aspartame, high fructose corn syrup, bleached flour products, and processed table sugar. These are all part of thetoxicStandard American Diet (SAD). If you are heavily into SAD, allow the possibility of some withdrawal symptoms when you leave SAD.

Eliminate well done redmeat. If you are a meat eater, switch to meats from humanely treated grass fed livestock, and avoid overcooking. Lots oforganiclegumes and whole grains could replace much of a meatdiet, and organic sprouted grainbreadsshould replace the toxic bleached flour breads offered on store shelves.

Organic veggies andnutswith some fruit are most important. Cruciferous vegetables, such as cauliflower, broccoli, cabbage, and others are proven to help prevent cancer. Raw Brazil nuts are extremely high in selenium, which helps prevent and even fight cancer.

Use only unprocessed seasalt. (10) Get plenty of Omega 3 and consume only healthy fats and oils while avoiding trans-fatty acids. (11) More details for the items numbered in thearticleare referenced below.

Boost and Maintain PH Levels from Natural News - awesome!!!

2011-04-21T12:58:00.001-07:00

(NaturalNews) The human internal ecosystem is stabilized by several different buffering systems that keep the body functioning at a high level for as long as possible. One of these buffering systems is pH. Our blood stream should be slightly alkaline at 7.365 pH at all times for the body to be healthy. Maintaining pH balance through proper diet and lifestyle is one of the most critical tools to optimizing your health. There are certain strategies that can be used to boost your pH all day and night without expensive supplements.

Thebodyhas an incredible homodynamic control system built around maintaining pH levels. These innate buffering systems include getting rid of excess acid or base byproductsthrough the lungs, skin,saliva, & urine. The most common problem with pH balancing is keeping up with the excess metabolic acids. Acids are produced from a lack of oxygen, poordiet, environmental toxins, cellular inflammation and metabolic waste products.

One of the biggest challenges many individuals have is maintaining ahealthypH range all day and night. We are constantly encountering different stressors that drain ouralkalinereserves and leave us in an acidic state. Here are a few simple strategies to maintain a healthy pH all day and night. The benefit of applying these advanced techniques is higher energy, mental clarity, and emotional stability.

Celery: This water-rich veggie is an excellent acid neutralizer. You can eat it before, during, or after a meal. It contains a perfect electrolytebalancethat powerfully quenches thirst and reenergizes & alkalizes your body. This is great for easy snacking during the day between meals to maintain healthy hydration & alkalinity.

Aloe Vera Juice: This is incrediblyalkalizingand loaded with electrolytes, trace minerals,anti-oxidants, and polysaccharides. Pure aloejuiceor gel gives one of the quickest alkaline boosts. This is an ideal drink before or after a large meal. Apple cider vinegar is another great booster that can be used withaloe veraor without it.

Fennel Seeds: This is a concentrated form ofmineralslike calcium, potassium, manganese, magnesium, selenium, zinc, copper, &iron. Additionally, it is rich in the powerful flavonoid anti-oxidants kaempferol & quercetin. Fennelseedsneutralize acids, aid in digestion, and are an incredibly good breath freshener. This is perfect when you are in a hurry, on the road, or eating out at restaurants. Simply put a small container of fennel seeds in your purse orcarand pop these seeds throughout the day to keep your breath fresh and your saliva alkaline.

Lemon/Lime Bicarbonate Formula: Squeeze one whole lemon/lime in a glass and begin adding aluminum-freebaking sodabit by bit. The acid/base combination will immediately begin to fizz. Keep addingbakingsoda until the fizz stops and then fill the glass withwater(8-16 oz). This is the ideal drink before bed to maintain an alkalineenvironmentwhile sleeping.

De-Inflaming Lemonade: This drink is loaded with some of the most powerful anti-oxidant rich herbs and alkalizing elements. Make this fresh in a big glass pitcher each morning and keep refrigerated so the whole family can enjoy all day long. Even children and picky eaters typically enjoy this drink. This is a great way to help people who crave soft drinks and other sweetened drinks.

1 cup of fresh squeezed lemon juice:
(4 -6 lemons)
4-6 cups of clean water (to taste)
1 tsp of ground turmeric
1 tsp of cinnamon
Pinch of pinksalt(Himalayan Salt)
1/2 tsp of liquid stevia (or to taste)
Optional: 1 tsp ground/fresh ginger

Fluoride makes you stupid!

2011-04-20T07:59:00.001-07:00

(NaturalNews) A recent Chinese study concluded that low dose sodium fluoride in drinking water diminishes IQ, especially among children. This is the twenty-fourth such international study with the same conclusion. Sodium fluoride has also been linked to reduced fertility and lower sperm counts.

Other health issues arise from the basic function of sodium fluoride's ability to block thyroid production. It was once used to inhibit hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid). So if your thyroid is normal, it will be reduced to hypothyroidism (under-activethyroid), which leads to a plethora ofhealth problems.

Sodium fluoride is accumulated and stored bybonematter, displacingcalciumand weakening bones. Thepineal glandsucks up even more of the stuff that is being put in 70% of the USAwater supplywhile independent scientific research and public protest is disregarded.

The Health Issues

There's more on the fluoridated pineal gland in the Natural Newsarticle"A Fluoride Free Pineal Gland ..." (source below). Here are a few of the health issues fromdrinkingfluoridated water:

*Thyroid Disruption- affecting the complete endocrine system and leading to obesity and diabetes
*Neurological- diminishedIQand inability to focus (ADD), lethargy, weariness, possibly fibromyalgia.
*Melatonin Disruption- sleep disorders, increased aging, lower immunity tocancer.
*Alzheimer's Disease
*Pineal Gland- calcification of this gland located in the middle of the brain.
*Cancer

Types of Fluorides

Calciumfluorideis in several groundwatersources, especially wells. The worst it can do is cause tooth enamel or bone damage if consumed daily over the long term. Pharmaceutical gradesodium fluorideis meant to be applied topically to teeth as a dental procedure. But if swallowed or otherwise ingested, it is extremelytoxic.

But the most pernicious of all sodiumfluoridesis either fluorosilicate acid orsodiumsilicofluoride. These are the waste products ofindustry, originally from the nuclear and aluminum industries, but now mostly from the phosphatefertilizerindustry.

The gases emitted from phosphate fertilizer processingplantsare so toxic that nearby crops were destroyed by the emissions and serioushealthproblems rose among nearby residents. So the EPA forced the processing plants to use scrubbers in their stacks to clean the exhaust.

That solved the toxic emission problems locally while creating an expensive toxicwastedisposal problem. How toxic is this scrubbed stuff? A recent spill from a fluorosilicate container in Illinois had to be contained by workers wearing the same type of protective gear worn near the damaged reactors in Fukushima.

Deceptive PR campaigns and the American Dental Association's urging offluoridationas the panacea for tooth decay created a profitable side industry: Selling phosphate toxic sludge as sodium fluoride for communitywater supplies. Fluoridated water proponents argue that lowdosesare safe while ignoring how these daily doses deposit and accumulate in our bones and organs.

Avoiding Sodium Fluoride

Even if not fluoridated, tap water contains chlorine compounds that tend to leachlead. This lead leaching gets with the sodium fluoride added. It has been declared that there is no safe level of lead in our bodies.

Don't drink tap water that has not gone through reverse osmosis,at least. Avoid commercial sodas and juices. Most food stores contain reverse osmosis purifiers that you can use to load large jugs cheaply. There are household purifiers available as well.

Reverse osmosis removes over 85% of sodium fluoride from water, but some of the good minerals are removed as well. Add some sea salt or mineral powder to compensate. Do this to stay healthy and join the growing resistance against forced toxic medication via our water supplies.

Concept of Non-duality - Thanks to The Mystic Christ by Ethan Walker, III

2011-04-14T23:17:00.001-07:00

Jesus speaks:

Jesus said, "When you make the two one, you will become the sons of man, and when you say, 'Mountain, move away,' it will move away."

The Mountains we must Move by Faith are the Mountains withIN us! They are the obstacles within us that Divide us... that keep us from Seeing the Truth.... that all is One.

"Sin sees separation", as we read in The Mystic Christ. ..."While Truth sees Unity."

And when you come to this reality, you have become Awakened.

"On that day you will realize that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you."

John 14:20, NIV

It has always been this way, but we have forgotten it.

We cannot desire to harm another when we know our Oneness with the All. How can we desire to harm ourselves?

If we are One with all creation, then we would naturally want to protect it all. Because it is all an extension of our own Being!

And this is why it is important to Know Thyself.

Know thyself and you Love and find Peace with all. Even the enemy is simply YOU in another form of illusion.. experiencing another experience.

How can we not pray for that enemy knowing it is simply US, existing ALSO in another?!!!

John 17:19-23 (King James Version)

¹⁹And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through the truth.

²⁰Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word;

²¹That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.

²²And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one:

²³I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.

Ephesians 4:4-6 (King James Version)

⁴There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;

⁵One Lord, one faith, one baptism,

⁶One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.

If this is true - that there is only ONE BODY - ONE SPIRIT.. then, all of creation shares the BODY OF CHRIST.. The Spirit of The All!

And if we Love the beautiful, Loving perfect Power and Majesty that IS God, how can we not adore ALL OF CREATION.. how can we not worship ALL of it?!

Jesus never said that there was any original sin or that man was evil.

Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could.

Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can.

Tomorrow is a new day;

begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.

What lies behind you and what lies in front of you, pales in comparison to what lies inside of you.

No one can cheat you out of ultimate success but yourself.

My evening visitors, if they cannot see the clock should find the time in my face.

Self-trust is the first secret to success.

Fear defeats more people than any other one thing in the world.

Microwaving Destroys - Through Natural News

2011-04-03T07:26:00.001-07:00

An experiment conducted at home for a high school science fair five years ago has verified the dangers of microwave ovens not only to humans, but even to plants and other organic matter. The experiment showed that microwaved water given to a plant causes the plant to wither and die within days; however, another identical plant given water that was boiled on a conventional stove grew normally during the same time period.

Many studies conducted throughout the world have repeatedly highlighted the deleterious effects ofmicrowave ovenson human health. In factmicrowaveovens are so dangerous that they were banned inRussiafrom 1976 to 1987. Twenty years of thorough research by Russian scientists convinced them that thedangersof the devices outweighed the benefits in cooking time. This experiment further verifies their findings.

In thehomeexperiment, filteredwaterwas divided into two parts. One part would be microwaved and allowed to cool before being given to the plant, while the second part would be heated on a conventional stove top and given to an identical plant. Results were observed over a nine day period. By the third day it was already clear that the plant given the microwaved water was not faring as well as its counterpart.

By the ninth day the microwaved plant was virtually nonexistent in its pot, having literally shrunk in size to just a few inches above the soil. The second plant was growing beautifully.

View pictures of the experiment here:http://www.eutimes.net/2011/03/expe...

Microwaved prepared meats cause the formation of d-Nitrosodienthanolamines, a well-knowncarcinogen. Microwaving can also cause someamino acidsin foods such as milk and cereal grains to be converted into carcinogens. Even very short exposure for cooked, frozen or rawvegetablesturned their plant alkaloids into carcinogenic matter unfit for human consumption. These carcinogenic free radicals formed inplantsand especially in root vegetables exposed tomicrowaves. Broccoli showed a 97% loss of its vitamin C when cooked in amicrowave oven.

Studies have shown that human breast milk heated in microwave ovens is altered and that not only is its vitamin content depleted, but some of the amino acids are also rendered biologically inactive. Some of the altered amino acids are poisons to both the nervous system and the kidneys.

Microwave ovens do not heatfoodevenly. This means that some parts are overcooked, which can change their molecular structure into dangerous carcinogenic substances, while other parts are undercooked increasing the risk of food poisoning.

Not only is the food cooked in microwave ovens dangerous, but also are the devices themselves. Every part from thepowerchord right up to the magnetron itself, which is the part that actually emits theradiationheating the food, is dangerous due to high levels of EM emissions.

Tests performed by manufacturers at a distance of two inches show that microwaves do leak out of the devices no matter how expensive or well made the model is. However since microwave radiation drops off dramatically with distance, at 20 inches the radiation is approximately 100 times less than at 2 inches, so it's a good idea to stand back from the unit if you must use one.

Microwaves can pass through walls, so if it's placed against an adjacent wall, those on the other side will be exposed to higher levels of radiation.

As this experiment clearly shows,microwavingyour food, even if you are just reheating yourtea, is definitely not a good idea. The microwaved plant would agree if it could talk.

This can be continued every day! - Pray for our planet!

2011-03-31T08:01:00.001-07:00

Dr. Emoto's Request for Assisting Japan:

Below is a special message from renowned Japanese
Scientist who brought attention to the power of thought/prayer
on water crystals. He has a special request for assistance
tomorrow noon...

To All People Around the World,

Please send your prayers of love and gratitude to water at
the nuclear plants in Fukushima, Japan!

By the massive earthquakes of Magnitude 9 and surreal
massive tsunamis, more than 10,000 people are still
missing…even now… It has been 16 days already since
the disaster happened. What makes it worse is that water
at the reactors of Fukushima Nuclear Plants started to
leak, and it's contaminating the ocean, air and water
molecules of the surrou nding areas.

Human wisdom has not been able to do much to solve the
problem, but we are only trying to cool down the anger of
radioactive materials in the reactors by discharging water
to them.

Is there really nothing else to do?

I think there is. During over twenty year research of hado
measuring and water crystal photographic technology, I
have been witnessing that water can turn positive when
it receives pure vibration of human prayer no matter how
far away it is.

Energy formula of Albert Einstein, E=MC2 really means
that Energy = number of people and the square of people's
consciousness.

Now is the time to understand the true meaning. Let us all join
the prayer ceremony as fellow citizens of the planet earth.

I would like to ask all people, not just in Japan, but all around
the world to please he lp us to find a way out the crisis of this
planet.

The prayer procedure is as follows...

Name of ceremony:
"Let's send our thoughts of love and gratitude to all water
in the nuclear plants in Fukushima"

Day and Time:
March 31st, 2011 (Thursday)
12:00 noon in each time zone

Please say the following phrase:
"The water of Fukushima Nuclear Plant, we are sorry to
make you suffer. Please forgive us. We thank you, and
we love you." Please say it aloud or in your mind.

Repeat it three times as you put your hands together in
a prayer position. Please offer your sincere prayer.

Thank you!

Protocol for nuclear contamination - thanks to Natural News and Mark A. Sircus

2011-03-17T08:37:00.001-07:00

The protocol: Iodine - Glutathione - Natural Chelation - Clay - Baking Soda. On Sunday, when I first released this protocol I said that it is too early to call everyone in North America to prepare for a radiation cloud streaming down radioactive particles from the accident in Japan. According to the media and government, America is not at risk due to radioactive fallout from the recent Japanese nuclear accidents and that is still officially the case.

In a new essay I am preparing today I am writing about how easy it is for health and medical officials to declare dangerous things safe when they are not. We are living in an age where the financial Ponzi schemes have been built on fantastic walls of lies that have been layered one after another and this is going to be our Achilles' heel as world events and this nuclear disaster continue to unfold.

If there was ever a time to be preparing for worst-case scenarios, now is the time. The evolving protocol you will find in this presentation is effective for radiation as well as chemical and heavy metal contamination. Since we all live on a toxic planet that is getting more toxic each year, everyone who wants to survive the increasing challenges imposed upon our bodies should take note and start processes of detoxification and chelation of heavy metals and radioactive particles.

Now, just hours after writing this above paragraph we get a report in the New York Times indicating that even best case scenarios include radioactive releases of steam from the crippled plants could go on for weeks, months or even years. So prepare we must. "Pentagon officials reported Sunday that helicopters flying 60 miles from the plant picked up small amounts of radioactive particulates -- still being analyzed, but presumed to include Cesium-137 and Iodine-121 -- suggesting widening environmental contamination. More steam releases also mean that the plume headed across the Pacific could continue to grow," printed theTimes.

The incident is a reminder that preparedness should include being prepared for nuclear events with foods and medicinals in our medical cabinets that will protect us and our families as much as humanly and medically possible. Many people in Japan and elsewhere around the world that live and work close to nuclear plants will be seriously affected by nuclear accidents. When a meltdown happens the effects can be carried thousands of miles by the prevailing winds.

It is unclear how far the impact of a meltdown might reach. In the United States, local communities plan for evacuation typically within 10 miles of a nuclear plant. However, states must be ready to cope with contamination of food and water as far as 50 miles away. When it comes to risks and toxic exposure levels we can count on the government and medical officials to understate the threat. This is something consistent in their approach to all types of toxic exposures.

Link to a video aboutMeltdown threat: Japan 'preparing for worst'

Besides having iodine on hand for emergencies, we can grow (and, at present, purchase) herbs and foods that prevent our bodies from storing radioactive particles. Some of these foods and herbs even remove radioactive particles from our bodies. As we are all already being affected by radiation released by numerous sources, eating these foods and doing detoxification and chelation protocols regularly is a good idea.

If you have been exposed to too many X-rays or CAT scans, if you fly too much, work with diagnostic medical equipment or are environmentally sensitive and have ingested elevated levels of radioactive contaminated food, air or water, you also want to partake of the following protocol on a regular basis.

Sodium Bicarbonate (Baking Soda)

The oral administration of sodium bicarbonate diminishes the
severity of the changes produced by uranium in the kidneys.

The kidneys are usually the first organs to show chemical damage upon uranium exposure. Old military manuals suggest doses or infusions of sodium bicarbonate to help alkalinize the urine if this happens.This makes the uranyl ion less kidney-toxic and promotes excretion of the nontoxic uranium-carbonate complex. The oral administration of sodium bicarbonate diminishes the severity of the changes produced by uranium in the kidneys. So useful and strong is sodium bicarbonate that at Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico, researcher Don York has used baking soda to clean soil contaminated with uranium.Sodium bicarbonate binds with uranium, separating it from the dirt; so far, York has removed as much as 92 percent of the uranium from contaminated soil samples. I started writing about baking soda after discovering that the United States Army recommends the use of bicarbonate to protect the kidneys from radiation damage.

Sodium bicarbonate can safely remove paint, grease, oil and smoke residue, decreasing workers' exposure to harsh chemicals and eliminating much of the hazardous waste associated with other cleaners. "Sodium bicarbonate is able to clean in areas where other substances pose fire hazards, because baking soda is a natural fire extinguisher," says Kenneth Colbert, a general manager for Arm & Hammer. This is the reason it's used by oncology centers to control chemo agent spills and it's actually used intravenously to protect patients from the hazardous toxicity of chemotherapy.

"Uranium is one of the only metals that get significant bonding from carbonate. Just flushing a lot of bicarbonate through the system, along with whatever kidney support you are going to use, will be very helpful," writes Dr. Chris Shade. There is no better therapy for radiation sickness then intense sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) andmagnesium bathswith the appropriateclayadded in. Even sodium thiosulfate can be added to these baths and that instantly neutralizes any chlorine in the bath water while simultaneously providing sulfur for the vital sulfur pathways.

Bicarbonate and Nuclear Fallout

If the bombs start dropping anywhere on earth, or if you live near a nuclear plant, you will want to have a large amount of sodium bicarbonate on hand. Minimum stocks should be 25 or 50 pounds. Normally I recommend someone start with using one pound of bicarbonate in a bath but that could easily be two or three pounds in an emergency situation. It is not a joke that one can get 50 pounds of the most powerful medicines on earth for 35 bucks. You will also need a lot of magnesium salts and the very best and most penetrating of them is the magnesium chloride in the form ofmagnesium bath flakes. Dead Sea salt is also quite fine for this application.

Exposure to radiation causes a cascade of free radicals that wreak havoc on the body. Radiation decimates the body's supply of glutathione.

Please read my essay onGlutathione and Bicarbonate Nebulization. Nebulization is one of the best ways to quickly increase glutathione levels as is the use of glutathione suppositories. The main cancer risk from inhaled uranium oxide and other airborne radioactive particles would be from tiny insoluble particles lodged deep in the lungs. That's a good reason to nebulize both glutathione and bicarbonate directly into the lungs and one must wonder why governments and health officials have not sponsored this treatment.

Dr. Sarah Mayhill, speaking about uranium oxide says, "It can be inhaled by soldiers and civilians, it sticks to the lining of the lungs, it is taken up by cells of the immune systems and gets into lymph glands, bone, brain, hormone producing glands, ovaries and testes. It stays in these organs for many decades and is only very slowly excreted in urine." Nebulization transdermally treats the lung tissues allowing for best effect on contaminated lung tissues.

I have had the pleasure through the years to learn from some of the most intelligent doctors and scientists about heavy metal chelation and the opening of detoxification pathways. The individual who wins the Nobel Prize in the area of chelation, the scientist with the greatest genius, especially when it comes to mercury chelation, isDr. Chris Shade. He has developed a sophisticated detoxification system based on enhancing the natural removal of metals through the intestines.

Though his specialty is mercury, detoxification and chelation of radioactive poisons use the same pathways as mercury. He has developed three products that are effective for the removal of mercury including a liposome formula that allows us to get glutathione into the system via oral administration. (For more information or ordering of Dr. Shade's products I only have a phone: 1- 866-257-8168, talk to Karen.)

Combining his formulas withHMD(Heavy Metal Detox) from Dr. George Georgiou, another medical genius, gives us, in my opinion, the best possible medical formula to help remove radioactive contamination as long as iodine,magnesium chloride, a super food spirulina-based formula likeRejuvenateandedible clayare used as well. Rejuvenate is a powerful chlorophyll-rich formula that is easy to administer in high quantities because of its exceptionally pleasant taste. The intense levels of RNA in Rejuvenate will quickly help build up a person's immune system and help them recover from the RNA/DNA damage caused by radiation exposure.

It is interesting to see that uranium-238 is being eliminated in the hair using the HMD protocol; to date there is no natural chelating agent known to mobilize and eliminate uranium-238 from body tissues. HMD is the only chelation product that I have seen that has actually been tested and shown to be effective for uranium toxicity.

HMD's cilantro will move heavy metals and radioactive material out of the cells into the detoxification pathways with Dr. Chris Shade's IMD (Intestinal Metal Detox) pulling down hard on those pathways to get the stuff out through the intestines. The internal consumption of edible clay and external clays dramatically facilitate this process. Clay baths are a very effective way of removing heavy metals from the body and increase one's chances of survival if exposed to nuclear fallout.

Iodine

Iodine is the most obvious and important element in protecting against radiation damages. Radioactive iodine will plunge in to any and all iodine receptor cites that have no iodine in them due to iodine deficiencies. This is a serious problem because over 90 percent of people in North America, according to Dr. David Brownstein, are iodine deficient. This leaves them incredibly vulnerable to radioactive iodine, which is one of the principle forms of radiation given off in nuclear accidents and from nuclear weapons.

In as separate article are videos of an interview I did today with Dr. Brownstein and a lot of important information about iodine supplementation as a vital defense against radiation contamination and damage.

Intravenous Cocktails

In cases of serious exposure, IV cocktails with high dosages of vitamin C,magnesium chlorideor sulfate, sodium bicarbonate and very pure seawater full of all the minerals necessary for life would be ideal.

Dr. David Brownstein administers a slow IV vitamin C drip -- usually 25-50 gm, with minerals, and he adds 10cc of sodium bicarbonate. The addition of bicarb to the IV's made a huge clinical improvement. He also adds 1 cc of bicarb to allMyers cocktail IV's, which he says is "a great addition."

Nutrients to the Rescue

Spirulina and chlorella have been used heavily by the Russians after the Chernobyl nuclear plant disaster. And the Japanese love their miso soup and that was said to help some of their citizens survive the fallout after the Americans attacked two of their cities. This is why I recommendRejuvenate in high dosesbecause of its high spirulina and chlorella content and because it is like refined rocket fuel for the cells providing them with a broad range of concentrated nutrients.

Tan Koon Peng from Singapore writes: "Miso is effective for detoxifying your body of radiation. During World War II, two hospitals that were located side by side were hit with atomic radiation, in one hospital people consumed Miso and all of them survived while many people in the other hospital that did not take miso died. Miso is rich in vitamin B therefore it is suitable for vegetarians who are in shortage of vitamin B. For best results do not cook miso."

HerbalistBrigitte Marssays, "There are a number of foods that can better help our bodies tolerate the effects of pollution. Eating lower on the food chain minimizes our chemical intake. Consuming more whole grains has a multitude of benefits. Their high fiber content binds with toxins and lessens intestinal transit time. Their vitamin B6 content nourishes the thymus gland and their vitamin E content helps the body to better utilize oxygen. The grain buckwheat is high in rutin and helps to protect against radiation and stimulates new bone marrow production. The mucilaginous fiber in seaweed helps to prevent the reabsorbing of radioactive strontium 90.

"Following the bombing of Nagasaki, a group of surviving macrobiotic doctors and their patients avoided radiation sickness by eating brown rice, miso and seaweed. They also did not get leukemia. Seaweeds also help to break down fatty deposits. High-chlorophyll foods like wheatgrass and barley grass strengthen cells, transport oxygen, help to detoxify the blood and liver as well as help to neutralize polluting elements and stimulate RNA production. Sulfur-rich vegetables like broccoli, cabbage and mustard greens combine with heavy metals and help prevent free radical damage," says Mars.

Dr. Shade commenting on the above said, "In the last sentence Brigitte Mars, a local friend actually mentions the broccoli family. A normal misconception is restated here - namely that the sulfur compounds in the broccoli family bind the heavy metals.?Actually thesulfur compounds trigger increased expression of your glutathione system, which results in both metal detoxification and free radical neutralization. The other group of food compounds that do this is the polyphenolic antioxidants - pine bark extract, green tea extract, grape seed extract, and my favorite Haritaki or terminalia chebula, an Ayurvedic fruit that is the basis for many medicines including the intestinal detoxifier Triphala. This fruit is used extensively in Tibetan Medicine where it is pictured being held by the Medicine Buddha and call the "King of Herbs". It has potent effects on the glutathione system and on expression of other intracelluar antioxidants such as superoxide dismutase. Haritaki is one of the superpowers in Clear Way. Clear Way also includes other polyphenolics such as Pine Bark extract, large amounts of liver cleansing dandelion root extract, natural iodine and minerals from fucus extract (or what is known as bladderwrack, a sea vegetable), the metal chelator and super antioxidant R-Lipoic acid, nerve protectors gotu kola and bacopa monniera, and B-vitamins 1, 5, and 6.

Research on animals indicates that curcumin (an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory compound found in the curry spice turmeric) may help protect against radiation-induced damage to the skin. Other research in animals shows that the herb ginkgo biloba may help shield against organ damage resulting from radiation therapy. And aloe vera is often touted as a natural remedy for radiation-induced skin changes preventing or minimizing radiation-induced skin reactions.

nuclear plant in Japan - like a dirty bomb waiting to go off

2011-03-16T08:00:00.001-07:00

(NaturalNews) NaturalNews has received information directly from an American who happened to be in Tokyo at the time of the nuclear incident and who also happens to have a background in atomic energy and nuclear reactors. He has sent us some extremely disturbing information that seems to indicate the situation with the reactors in Japan is far, far worse than what the conventional media is describing. We are not releasing this individual's name for obvious reasons (he's still in Tokyo and virtually unreachable), but he is an individual who is known to me personally and with whom I have spent a considerable number of hours over a period of two years. He is a very high-integrity individual and someone who is also extremely well connected in the world of advancedmedicine.

In an email sent from Tokyo, this individual explains:

"...nuclear reactors use bundles of enriched uranium packed into stainless steelfuelrods in order to generate the heat that drives the turbines. You need to keep these bundles of pins cool otherwise they melt or burst.

Now, it seems the Fukushimapowerplant pulled spent fuel bundles (a collection of fuel rods) and stored them on site rather than shipping them to another location. Speculation is that in addition to the fires that are damaging the working reactor, these storage areas of their spent fuel bundles could [now] be on fire. This vastly compounds the problem of any meltdown, as this spent fuel will add to the contamination [because] it is extremely toxic.

In other words, as well as dealing with a potential meltdown, you also have the toxic products from the depleted fuel pins adding to the pollution.This is extraordinarily bad. The spent fuel bundles should have been relocated away from the reactor core a long, long time ago. Given the earthquake realities ofJapan, these reactor building were basicallydirty bombs waiting to be set off by a [natural] disaster."

I want to thank this individual for his continued reporting from Tokyo and assure him that if he chooses to send moreinformationto NaturalNews, we will of course continue to protect his anonymity.

Nuclear plant becomes dirty bomb waiting to go off

The upshot of his assessment of the situation is thatthe Fukushima power plant is now a "dirty bomb" waiting to happen. And it's on fire right now. Radiation levels are rising so rapidly that it's not even safe to work near the plant. This is very rapidly headed into a situation wheresuicidal volunteersare going to have to "rush in" and do some work on the plant, spend only a few minutes there, then evacuate as quickly as possible. And they'll still get cancer.

This isexactlywhat happened in Chernobyl following the accident there in 1987. Hundreds of brave volunteers basically committed suicide in order to erect the containment vessel over the melted-down reactor and thereby prevent furtherradiationfrom escaping directly into the environment.

AsWikipediaexplains (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cherno...):

"The worst of the radioactive debris was collected inside what was left of the reactor, much of it shoveled in by liquidators wearing heavy protective gear (dubbed "bio-robots" by the military); these workers could only spend a maximum of 40 seconds at a time working on the rooftops of the surrounding buildings because of the extremely high doses of radiation given off by the blocks of graphite and other debris. The reactor itself was covered with bags containing sand, lead, and boric acid dropped from helicopters (some 5,000 metric tons during the week following the accident). By December 1986 a large concrete sarcophagus had been erected, to seal off the reactor and its contents. Many of the vehicles used by the "liquidators" remain parked in a field in the Chernobyl area to this day, most giving off doses of 10-30 R/h (0.7-2 uA/kg) over 25 years after the disaster."

Far worse than a terrorism attack

This could be very similar to what we're headed toward in Japan if the people there don't get this situation under control very quickly. Terrorists couldn't have carried out a more deadly disaster than what the "scientific"nuclear powerindustry has now delivered to the people of Japan.

In the name of scientific progress, the Japanese people are now threatened with the worst kind ofdeath: Death by radiation poisoning -- a slow, suffering breakdown of cellular function at every level. And sadly, Japan has already suffered through a similar scenario near the end of World War II when the United States ofAmericadropped atomic bombs on the civilian Japanese population... twice!

What frightens me in all this is the choice of words from our source who describes the Fukushima site as a "dirty bomb" just waiting to go off. There's a lesson in all this, of course: When you play God with the planet, it might be wise to followthe precautionary principlemore closely. This nuclear catastrophe is a mirror image of what we're likely to see in thefutureof agriculture due toGMOs(genetically engineeredseeds). GE seeds are the "genetic dirty bombs" of agriculture, and they too could devastate human civilization in much the same way that nuclear power now threatens the very survival of an entire nation.

But too many "scientists" are infinitely arrogant, it seems, and they rarely consider the consequences of their dangerous actions. On all the issues that matter -- GMOs and seeds, synthetic chemicals, cell phone radiation, nuclear power, fluoride in the water, mercury fillings and much more -- "science" has delivered suffering and death, not lasting progress. Thanks to these scientists who convince governments to take on nuclear power, GMOs,vaccinesor pharmaceuticals, our world is now facing a multi-facetedlifeextinction crisis that threatens the very future of life on our planet. And Bill Gates thinks the answer is "more vaccines!" (Insane? You betcha...)

The lessons to be learned from Fukushima are the same lessons humanity needs to learn on many other fronts: Don't think you are so brilliant that you can outsmart Mother Nature and the laws of cause and effect. "Science" is no panacea. Science makes too many promises that it cannot keep (Improved crop yields! Clean energy! Amazing vaccines!), and when nations embrace these so-called "scientific"solutions, ultimately they only receive death, fear and financialdestruction.

For instance, the pharmaceutical industry has done to the U.S. economy what the Fukushima power plant is about to do to Japan. The promises we were given in the name of science and medicine have all blown up in our faces, leaving only a desolate landscape of destruction and misery in their wake.

It is time we all began to seriously question our "faith" in the false promises of science and instead started to look at more holistic andhumble solutionsfor sustainable life on our planet.

TheAmishway of life, for example, may not look high-tech and cool, but it doesn't explode in your face and irradiate your whole country, either. And the Amish do just fine without vaccines, too (and they have near-zero rates of autism, by the way).

Bhakti Yoga: In Search of a Lost Love

Mother Nature is always speaking. She speaks in a language understood within the peaceful mind of the sincere observer. Leopards, cobras, monkeys, rivers and trees; they all served as my teachers when I lived as a wanderer in the Himalayan foothills. They shared the kind of lessons that elevate the spirit.

One particularly illuminating lesson from the forest comes in the form of the Himalayan musk deer. The musk deer is referenced in Sanskrit poetry and philosophy owing to its peculiar behavior. Prized by the perfume industry for its exceptional aroma, musk is one of the world's most expensive natural products, fetching more than three times its weight in gold. The aroma of musk is so alluring that when the stag's sensitive nose catches wind of it he roams the forest day and night in pursuit of its source. He exhausts himself in a fruitless quest, never realizing the bitter irony: the sweet fragrance he was chasing resided nowhere but within himself. Musk, you see, is produced by a gland in the stag's very own navel: it was searching without for what was all along lying within.

The sages of India found in the musk deer an apt description of the human condition. We are all pleasure-seeking creatures wandering a forest of some sort -- replete with pleasures and perils alike. Moreover, we are prone to the same type of folly as the deer: we seek our happiness externally. Misconceiving our true needs, we wrongly equate our fulfillment and self-worth with possessions, positions, mental and sensual thrills. We are often drawn into superficial relationships which hold the promise of lasting satisfaction, yet leave us feeling empty.

The true treasure lies within. It is the underlying theme of the songs we sing, the shows we watch and the books we read. It is woven into the Psalms of the Bible, the ballads of the Beatles and practically every Bollywood film ever made. What is that treasure? Love. Love is the nature of the Divine. Beneath the covering of the false ego it lies hidden. The purpose of human life is to uncover that divine love. The fulfillment that we're all seeking is found in the sharing of this love.

The power of love is most profound. It has various levels. In its crudest sense, the word love refers to acts of physical intimacy, and its influence over society is obvious. But on a deeper, more emotional level, not simply of the body but of the heart, there is no greater power than love. For the sake of money and prestige, one may be willing to work long hours, weekends, even holidays. A mother's love, on the other hand, is selfless and unconditional. There's nothing she won't do for the well-being of her child, and she asks for nothing in return.

When love is pure it has the power to conquer. Lover and beloved conquer each other by their affection. The source, the essence, the fullest manifestation of love's conquering power is the love of the soul for the supreme soul, or God. The sages who authored India's sacred texts found that the most astonishing of all of God's wonders was His willingness and eagerness to not only be touched by our love, but to be conquered by it. The cultivation of that dormant love is called the path of bhakti (devotion). This love is within all of us. It is the greatest of all powers because it is the only power that can grant realization of the highest truths and the only power that can reveal the deepest inner fulfillment in our lives. On the strength of this love we can overcome envy, pride, lust, anger and greed. There is no other means of conquering these diseases within us.

One who loves God sees everything in relation to God. Therefore their love flows spontaneously toward everyone, at all times, everywhere. They even love those who wish them harm. If you love God, you can't hate anything or anyone. If the love one offers is met with hate, it doesn't die, rather it manifests in the form of compassion. That is universal love. It is not just a sentiment. It cannot be manifested merely by a shift in mental disposition. It can only come from inner cleaning, an inner awakening. Then that love becomes the reality of life.

This inner cleansing is the goal of all spiritual practice. Every prayer offered, mantra chante, or ritual performed should be for the purpose of removing the impurities which impede the full blossoming of unconditional love and compassion. This is the only way to peace, both individually and collectively. When our intrinsic love is awakened and our divine qualities shine through, we will not only find the pleasure we've been seeking but also become powerful agents of change in the world.

We are all searching, roaming the forest like the musk deer, seeking the pleasures without. When we recognize what we are really looking for and begin searching for the lost love within, at that point, the real journey of human life begins.

Cold Fusion to replace Nuclear? Consider it!

2011-03-15T08:17:00.001-07:00

(NaturalNews) The world owes Fleischmann and Pons a huge apology: The cold fusion technology they announced in 1989 -- which was blasted by arrogant hot fusion scientists as a fraud -- has been proven true once again by U.S. Navy Researchers. In papers presented at this year's American Chemical Society meeting, scientist Pamela Mosier-Boss presented data supporting the reality of cold fusion, declaring the report, "the first scientific report of highly energetic neutrons from low-energy nuclear reactions."

Technically, it's not the first report at all, however. It might be the five-hundredth report, given how many people have been working oncold fusionsince 1989 in laboratories across the world. Following the politically-motivated assassination of cold fusion credibility in 1989, the cold fusion movement went underground, renaming itself to LENR (Low Energy Nuclear Reactions). As LENR, cold fusion has been proven true in literally thousands ofexperimentsconducted over the past two decades.

I first went public with the true story about the conspiracy against cold fusion in 1998. It described this classic conspiracy against a newtechnology, schemed up by desperate defenders of old technology -- hot fusion researchers who, after hundreds of billions of dollars inresearchmoney, have yet to produce a single sustainable hot fusion reaction that produces moreenergythan it consumes. The arrogant hot fusion researchers have the same snooty attitude as cancer researchers: "Just give us another billion dollars," they say, "and we'll find a cure!"

It's been the same story for nearly three decades now, and hot fusion still doesn't work. A working cold fusion unit, however, can be built on a kitchen countertop for less than $2,000, and it doesn't require a doctorate in physics to pull it off, either. It is precisely this simplicity that offends the arrogant hot fusion pushers who act much like medicaldoctorsin the vicious defense of their territory.

Cold fusion applications

Cold fusion isn't some magical free energy machine. It producesexcess heat, but slowly. So don't go thinking this is some kind of Mr. Fusion device that you can feed some banana peels and expect to get cleanelectricityout the other end.

Rather,cold fusion converts mass to heat energy, slowly losing a bit of mass through very low-energy nuclear reactions (hence the LENR name) that generate excess heat. In practical terms,cold fusion produces hotwater.

And why is hot water useful? Because with hot water, you can produce steam. Steam turns turbines that generate electricity. This is how coalpower plantswork, too, except they're burningcoalto heat water instead of using cold fusion. Conventional nukeplantswork the same way, too, using much higher-energy nuclear reactions to heat vast amounts of water that drive electricity-generating turbines.

So heating water with cold fusion is a big deal. If the technology can be scaled up and applied properly, it could spell an end to the era of dirty coalpowerplants.

And that, friends, could mean a very big deal for reducing CO2emissionsand avoiding a worsening ofglobal warming. It will even help global warmingskeptics, too, because even if you don't believe global warming is real, the climate still changes on you. Mother Nature can't be debated. It justreacts.

Whether you recognize the reality of global warming or not, cold fusion technology couldreduce airpollutiondue to coal power plant emissions. Coal power plants are the No. 1 source ofmercurypollutionon our planet, in case you didn't know. That's because burning coal spews mercury into the air, which then contaminates oceans and land masses, contaminating the world with mercury.

(Perhaps there aremercury skepticswho do not believe coal power plants spew mercury at all, or that mercury is safe for human consumption. The mercury skeptics are probably dentists, come to think of it...)

No radioactivewaste

Cold fusion, by the way, does not produce radioactive waste. So it's not like a world full of cold fusion power plants would create yet another radioactive waste problem. It might cause a shortage of palladium, though, which is one of the metals typically used in cold fusion devices.

Some of the more astute readers of this website will probably figure out that investing in palladium futures ahead of any widespread production of cold fusion devices would no doubt be extremely profitable. But that kind of product rollout is likely years away, at best.

And that's assuming that this latest round of cold fusion announcements won't get clobbered yet again by the hot fusion conspirators. I'm half expecting an updated news announcement in a day or two, with a headline like, "U.S. Navy Retracts Cold Fusion Announcement, Scientists Accused of Fraud" or some such nonsense. If you see such a headline, remember what you're reading here, and you'll know it's all been manipulated to erase the reality of cold fusion from the sphere of public knowledge.

Cold fusion, after all, could revolutionize the energy industry and spell doom for coal andnatural gas. I know a bunch of executives in Wyoming who are shaking in their (insulated) boots right now at the thought of cold fusion sideliningnaturalgas.

Nowhere are the resistance to and promise of a new energy technology more dramatically revealed than those of the case ofcold fusion. This well-researched approach has the potential of reversing much of the pollution while turning the interests of the energy monopolies upside down.

Six months aftercold fusionwas announced, the American Department of Energy denounced it. In Japan, the people who are considered authorities blindly emulated the attitude of the Americans, as they invariably do, and they too pontificated againstcold fusion. Perhaps it was inevitable that most people would assume the claims are cock and bull nonsense. In keeping with the tide of the times, countless books and articles have been published attackingcold fusion. The very act of researchingcold fusionhas become scandalous.

Equally illuminating were the remarks of Professor John Huizenga, who was co-chairman of the US Department of Energy's panel oncold fusionand who came down against the reality of the process. In a recent book on the subject, Professor Huizenga observed that 'The world's scientific institutions have probably now squandered between $50 and $100 million on an idea that was absurd to begin with.' The question is, what were his principal reasons for rejectingcold fusion.

This was perhaps the high-water mark ofcold fusion. Scores of organisations over the world were actively working to replicatecold fusionin their laboratories, and although many reported difficulties a decent number reported success. And by the end of April, Fleischmann and Pons were standing before the US House Science, Space and Technology committee asking for a cool $25 million to fund a centre forcold fusionresearch at Utah University. Then things began to go wrong.

GET CLARITY ON SODIUM!! Table salt is no good!

2011-03-07T10:13:00.001-08:00

(NaturalNews) It's no secret that sodium has replaced carbohydrates and fat as the new scapegoat for all sorts of health issues ranging from high blood pressure and osteoporosis, to heart disease. New product marketing strategies boast "low sodium" or "reduced sodium" labels, and many brands are replacing sodium all together with potentially harmful potassium chloride. It is true that many studies have been conducted linking sodium to many of American's modern day health problems; however, thesestudiesare conducted usingtable salt(sodium chloride) or isolatedsodium(sodium that has been stripped of themineralsneeded for the body to utilize it properly). The tablesaltfound in high amounts in the standard Americandietis not synonymous with the "un-tested" good type of sodium ourbodyneeds to maintain goodhealth.

Table salt is mined from underground salt mines. It is then heavily processed, refined, stripped of all its minerals except for sodium and chloride (NaCl), and subjected to anti-caking agents like aluminum. Table salt is an acidic, inorganic substance; this means the body cannot break the chemical bonds to utilize the sodium and it is not easily excreted from the body. This leads to various health issues, is responsible for 100,000 deaths each year, and contributes to the "sodium is bad" mentality.

However, table salt (NaCl) and sodium (Na) are not synonymous. In fact, the majority of Americans are deficient in the good type of sodium the body needs. Trueorganicsodium is essential, beneficial, and needed by our body in moderate amounts. This type of sodium is found in fruits, vegetables, naturalsea saltand soil. Sodium is known as the "youth mineral" because it is associated with youthful, limber, and flexible joints. The alkalinity of organic sodium helps neutralize acids that result from stressful lifestyles and poor nutrition. Without adequate amounts of sodium, the body will take minerals from its reserves, including the bones, to neutralize acid. Organic sodium is essential for calcium absorption, digestion, bile production, fluid balance, and the function of the brain, kidneys, liver, lymph,blood, spleen, gastric secretions, cellular function, and metabolism. Unlike table salt, an excess of this type of sodium is easily excreted from the body.

There are many health problems caused by an organic sodiumdeficiencyincluding: gallstones, kidney stones, hardened arteries, osteoporosis, arthritis, gout, brittle bones, heartburn, acid reflux, gastroparesis, nerve problems, indigestion,headaches, stiff or painful joints, abnormal pulmonary function, bacterial infections, poor memory, diabetes, bloating, fatigue, restless legs, weight gain, and headaches, and more.

To prevent a deficiency of this important mineral, ditch the table salt and add sodium richfoodsto your diet. Foods highest in organic sodium include: celery, asparagus, barley, red cabbage, carrots, coconut, okra, lentils, kale, strawberries, sesame seeds, raisins, goat's milk, egg yolks, and pure (non-iodized) sea salt.

When using logic, it is clear. Organic sodium fromfoodsources is not responsible for poor health, as celery or any of the other foods listed above have not been used as controls in the research and studies responsible for the negative sodium publicity. The vast amount of health issues attributed to "sodium" are directly related to the high amounts of table salt found in the processed foods most Americans consume. To prevent these health issues, ditch the table salt, not the sodium.

You think your temper is the worst in the world, but mine used to be just like it. ... I've been trying to cure it for forty years, and have only succeeded in controlling it. I am angry nearly every day of my life, but I have learned not to show it; and I still try to hope not to feel it, though it may take me another forty years to do it. ... I've learned to check the hasty words that rise to my lips, and when I feel that they mean to break out against my will, I just go away for a minute, and give myself a little shake for being so weak and wicked.

Corn to Fuel - Another absurdly stupid move on the part of America

2011-02-16T16:03:00.001-08:00

(NaturalNews) Right on the heels of the USDA's decision to deregulate GM alfalfa (http://www.naturalnews.com/031196_G...), the U.S. Department of Agriculture has now decided to completely deregulategenetically engineered cornused for ethanol production. This is just the latest Frankenfood horror unleashed by USDA Secretary Tom Vilsack, who has firmly established himself as the regulatory puppet of Monsanto and other GMO giants.

The public spin on this decision is that it will allow the growing ofcornengineered to produce moreethanolfuel, thereby improving the efficiency in the conversion of corn tofuel. This claim is, of course, scientifically invalid on so many levels that it's difficult to know where to begin. But I'll take a shot at it...

Remember when we used to actually EAT corn?

For starters, in a world wherefoodprices are rapidly rising, wherecropsare failing due to radicalweatherevents, and where food stockpiles are at their lowest levels in many decades, the idea ofconverting food to fuelis utterly ludicrous. Making matters even worse, there's the simple fact that the ethanol advocates simply refuse to admit:Growing corn for fuel consumes more fuel than it produces!

The whole corn-for-ethanol debacle is simply another government-run agricultural cluster shuck involving the wasting of billions of taxpayer dollars which disappear into the black hole of subsidies handed out to corn growers. The whole thing smacks ofeconomic insanitycombined with an almost alien view of thenaturalworld. To look upon an acre of corn and think that it's supposed to be burned in combustion engines rather than consumed as nutrition represents a whole new level of mentalillness-- an illness which has infected the minds ofregulatorsand lawmakers. (Is there a vaccine shot to prevent it yet?)

Beyond that, the claim that this corn-to-fuel effort is now the justification for unleashinggenetically contaminated GE cornacross North America is not just badthinking; it'sdangerously bad thinkingfrom people who should know better.

The end of agricultural genetic integrity

Because you know what happens next? With GE corn being planted everywhere, the wind will cross-contaminate regular corn crops, resulting inwidespread genetic pollutionof the corn grown inAmerica. This, in turn, will result in America's corn being refused for importation by other nations which don't want to poison their people with genetically altered corn (unlike the U.S. government).

It will damage the entire U.S. cornindustry, in other words, and further devastate U.S.farmerswho are already squeezed by freak weather events.

"The USDA's decision defies common sense," said Margaret Mellon, director of theUnion of Concerned ScientistsFood and Environment Program. "There is no way to protect food corn crops from contamination by ethanol corn. Even with the most stringent precautions, the wind will blow and standards will slip. In this case, there are no required precautions."

Over at the Center for Food Safety,sciencepolicy analyst Bill Freese wrote, "Syngenta's biofuels corn will inevitably contaminate food-grade corn, and could well trigger substantial rejection in our corn export markets, hurting farmers." (http://www.foodsafetynews.com/2011/...)

Anarticleat Truth-Out.org reveals some of the possible under-the-table financial links that may be behind this decision to deregulate GE corn:http://www.truth-out.org/big-win-bi...

TheAlliance for Natural Healthhas also posted a very good summary on this situation. It's a great read:http://www.anh-usa.org/now-usda-has...

Our corn supply is being stalked byMonsanto

So what does it all mean? It means that between the GE corn, GE sugar beets, GEalfalfa, cotton, soy and other ingredients,we are living in a grand, dangerous experiment of playing God with seeds.

I've said this before: It's almost as if people like Tom Vilsack (and other Monsanto minions) are just begging Mother Nature to wipe out human civilization and start over. Here, everybody! Let's turn our food crops into pesticide absorbers, then feed them to cows and people!

It's all being done for corporate profits, of course. Because that's all it takes to compromise the future of life on our planet: Just another buck on the bottom line.

That's all it takes atthe USDA, too: Just another promise of a sweet, cushy job in the corn industry after you've left the agency. Bend enough rules in favor of Big Ag, and you can name your salary a few years down the road. Because if there's a kernel of truth to be found in any of this, it's that corporations -- and regulators -- will operate with outrageous disregard for the integrity of the natural world.

By the way, this decision was made under the guise of "science." All the lies now being repeated about thesafetyof genetically engineered crops are being bolstered by the laughable claim that they are "scientific" and that anyone who opposesGMOsis, by default, "unscientific."

Read more about that in my article,"Unscientific" is secret code for anyone who opposes GMOs or pesticides(http://www.naturalnews.com/031093_u...).

Fake RICE from China!

2011-02-15T08:05:00.000-08:00

Better think before you swallow!

(NaturalNews) The Chinese food contamination freak show is back in full swing with new reports out of Singapore indicating that certain Chinese companies are now mass producing and selling fake rice to unwitting villagers. According to a report in the Korean-language Weekly Hong Kong, the manufacturers are blending potatoes, sweet potatoes, and plastic industrial resin to produce the imitation rice.

A report in Very Vietnam states that an official from the Chinese Restaurant Association has announced that eating three bowls of this fake rice is the equivalent of eating an entire plastic bag. Consuming such plastic material is obviously a serious health hazard, and officials are allegedly gearing up to conduct an investigation into the factories accused of producing the phony rice.

The scandal is not a surprise when considering China's long legacy food problems, including the 2008 melamine-tainted milk incident where roughly 300,000 people were injured and at least six infants died as a result of being poisoned by the toxic chemical (http://www.naturalnews.com/024837_f...). Other tainted food from China has included melamine-tainted pet foods, lead-tainted children's cups, and even another fake rice case where a Chinese company added synthetic flavorings to ordinary rice to trick people into thinking it was the more expensive "Wuchang" variety.

Some media commentators have already begun to run wild with the fake rice story, comparing the imitation rice to what they say is the imitation reality in which the world lives.

"Fake stimulus, fake money printing, fake GDP growth, fake goods and services being produced, is ... forcing us to consume fake food because we can't afford real food, because we have no real growth, we have no real economy, we have no real industry, we only have fake stuff," bemoaned talk show co-host Stacy Herbert from Russia Today. "So it makes sense that we're only eating fake food."

Get educated on the poison that FLUORIDE is! - End the disastrous Fluoridation of our Water System!

2011-02-11T08:27:00.001-08:00

The Time Has Come to End Fluoridation Completely

Fluoride Action Network
February 4, 2011

In January 2011, the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) recommended reducing the levels of fluoride added to drinking water based on national survey data showing that 41% of American adolescents now have dental fluorosis (a visible sign of fluoride toxicity). The HHS has proposed reducing the level of fluoride added to water from 0.7 to 1.2 parts per million (ppm) to 0.7 ppm, and is now soliciting public comment. (Comments are due by February 14).

While HHS's decision is a baby step in the right direction, it is not good enough. Even at the new recommended level, millions of infants will continue to be regularly over-exposed to fluoride, millions of American children will continue to develop dental fluorosis, and millions of Americans -- children and adults alike -- will remain at risk to the health effects caused by fluoride.

The Fluoride Action Network (FAN) is calling on HHS to follow the path of western Europe and end water fluoridation completely. Of particular concern is a growing body of research indicating fluoride's ability to damage the developing brain, including 24 studies associating fluoride exposure with reduced IQ in children, 6 studies linking fluoride to other neurotoxic effects in children, and over 100 animal studies reporting that fluoride directly damages the brain.

Please click here to send letter in support of FAN's comments to HHS.
If your email bounces back, please send your comments directly to HHS, stating your support for FAN's submission (email subject: Fluoridation).

FAN's comments are reproduced in full below (pdf version of submission).

To HHS and Honorable Secretary Sebelius,

In response to your request for comments on the recent change in your recommended level of fluoride added to community drinking water, I respectfully submit the following points supporting the stance that a reduction in fluoride levels is not sufficient, and that the United States should follow the approach of western Europe and end water fluoridation completely:

• Fluoride is not a nutrient, nor is it essential for healthy teeth. No study has ever revealed a diseased state resulting from lack of fluoride, including dental caries. (1,2) No American is, or ever was, "fluoride deficient."

• Using the water supply to mass medicate the population is unethical. The public water supply should not be used as a drug-delivery system without regard for an individual's age, weight, health status, or knowledge of how fluoride will interact with other drugs they are taking. No informed consent is requested or given, and no medical follow-up is offered.

• The benefit and safety of ingested fluoride has never been proved by accepted medical standards. The HHS has failed to inform the public that there is not a single randomized controlled trial (the gold standard of medical research) that demonstrates the effectiveness of water fluoridation. (3) HHS has also failed to inform the public that the Food and Drug Administration has never studied, or approved, the safety of fluoride supplements and continues to classify all fluoride supplements as "unapproved new drugs." (4, 5) Lastly, HHS has failed to inform the public that tooth decay rates have declined at the same general rate in all western, industrialized countries, irrespective of water fluoridation status. (6)

• Any benefits of fluoride are primarily topical, not systemic. The CDC has acknowledged this for over a decade (7). The Iowa Fluoride Study, funded by HHS, has reported little, if any, relationship between individual fluoride intake and caries experience. According to the study (the largest of its kind): "achieving a caries-free status may have relatively little to do with fluoride intake, while fluorosis is clearly more dependent on fluoride intake." (8)

• Americans will still be over-exposed to fluoride at 0.7 ppm. According to EPA's recent documents "it is likely that most children, even those that live in fluoridated communities, can be over-exposed to fluoride at least occasionally. (9) At present, nearly 41% of American adolescents aged 12-15 have some form of dental fluorosis (10), an outwardly visible sign of fluoride toxicity. Reducing the fluoride levels to 0.7 ppm will not remedy this problem as national statistics clearly show that dental fluorosis remains significantly elevated at 0.7 ppm. (11) Drinking water is just one source of ingested fluoride; others include foods, beverages, dental products and supplements, pesticides and pharmaceuticals. For communities that practice artificial water fluoridation, this is the easiest source of fluoride to remove.

• Infants will not be protected. Infants fed formula made with fluoridated tap water—at the reduced level of 0.7 ppm—will still receive up to 175 times more fluoride than a breast-fed infant. In their supporting documents, EPA has not calculated the risks to the bottle-fed infant. In fact, infants from birth to six months of age were completely excluded from any consideration by EPA, despite HHS's own admission that "The period of possible risk for fluorosis in the permanent teeth…extends from about birth through 8 years of age." (12) As the most susceptible subpopulation, the potential for long-term, irreparable damage to developing infants must be seriously considered, and should extend beyond just their teeth.

• African-American children and low-income children will not be protected. HHS's reference (p. 2386) to the study by Sohn et al. (13) failed to mention that African-American and low-income children were found to consume significantly more total fluids and plain water, and thus receive more fluoride from drinking water, than white or higher-income children. African-Americans have been shown to have an increased risk of developing dental fluorosis, and are at higher risk for suffering from the more severe forms of this condition. (14) Despite receiving high intakes of fluoride, low-income and minority children living in fluoridated communities continue to suffer from rampant and severe dental decay (15-18)—undermining the common premise that fluoridation will prevent these problems. Additionally, low-income children have a greater risk for suffering from all forms of fluoride toxicity, as poor diet exacerbates the detrimental effects of fluoride. This is clearly, therefore, an environmental justice issue.

• HHS has failed to consider fluoride's impact on the brain. Over 100 animal studies have observed fluoride-induced brain damage (19), 24 human studies have reported lowered IQ in children exposed to various levels of fluoride (20), and at least 6 other studies have found non-IQ neurological effects such as impaired visuo-spatial organization. (21-26) One study of 500 children in China observed reduced IQ at a water fluoride level of 1.9 ppm (27, 28) and another reported a reduction in IQ at even lower (mean=1.3 ppm) water fluoride levels. (29) HHS's new recommendation of 0.7 ppm offers no adequate margin of safety to protect all of our children, including those with iodine deficiencies (30-32), from experiencing similar neurological damage.

• HHS has failed to consider fluoride as an endocrine disruptor. The 2006 NRC report (33) states that fluoride is an endocrine disruptor, and even at low levels can be detrimental to the thyroid gland. Pre- and post-natal babies, people with kidney disease, and above-average water drinkers (including diabetics and lactating women) are especially susceptible to the endocrine disrupting effects of fluoride in drinking water.

• HHS has failed to consider or investigate current rates of skeletal fluorosis in the U.S. According to EPA's supporting document (34), there is a general lack of information on the prevalence of stage II skeletal fluorosis in the U.S. Yet, many of the symptoms of stage II skeletal fluorosis (e.g. sporadic pain, stiffness of the joints) are identical to arthritis (35-40), which affects at least 46 million Americans. People with renal insufficiency are known to be at an elevated risk for developing skeletal fluorosis (33), as crippling stage III skeletal fluorosis with renal deficiency has been documented in the U.S. at water fluoride levels as low as 1.7 ppm. (41) Since skeletal fluorosis in kidney patients has been detected in small case studies, it is likely that systematic studies would detect skeletal fluorosis at even lower fluoride levels.

• HHS has failed to consider fluoride as a potential carcinogen. Bassin et al. (42) reported a significantly elevated risk of osteosarcoma in boys living in fluoridated communities, and thus fluoride may be a carcinogen. Chester Douglass, who has serious conflicts-of-interest concerning fluoride research, has stated that a subsequent study will refute these findings (43), but no publication has appeared in the five years since he made this claim. As EPA has still not completed carcinogenicity testing for fluoride, HHS should not support the addition of a potential carcinogen to our drinking water.

• HHS has failed to confirm the safety of silicofluorides. Despite being used in more than 90% of artificial water fluoridation schemes, no chronic toxicity testing of silicofluorides has ever been completed: "No short-term or subchronic exposure, chronic exposure, cytotoxicity, reproductive toxicity, teratology, carcinogenicity, or initiation/promotion studies were available" for the toxicological summary for silicofluorides, as prepared for the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences. (44) However, recent epidemiological research has found an association between the use of silicofluoride-treated community water and increased blood lead concentrations in children (45) – a link that is consistent with recent laboratory findings. (46) HHS has failed to inform the American public that the fluoridating agent used in drinking water is a hazardous waste product from the phosphate fertilizer industry, and can be laced with arsenic and radionuclides, (47, 48) which are known carcinogens. HHS should not support the addition of a non-tested substance to our drinking water.

Most of the arguments listed above are covered in far more detail in the recently published book "The Case Against Fluoride" by Connett, Beck and Micklem (Chelsea Green, 2010). We urge director Sebelius to appoint a group of experts from HHS, who have not been involved in promoting fluoridation, to provide a fully documented scientific response to the arguments and evidence presented in this book. Were director Sebelius to do this we strongly believe that neither she nor these experts will want to see the practice of water fluoridation continue. The practice is unnecessary, unethical and hitherto the benefits have been wildly exaggerated and the risks minimized. A scientific response to this book from a HHS team would allow the public to judge the cases both for and against fluoridation on their scientific and ethical merits.

Think you've heard everything about vitamin D? As NaturalNews has reported extensively, deficiencies of this amazing health-protective vitamin have been linked to conditions as diverse as breast cancer, hives, weak bones, obesity and more. But now there's yet another discovery showing how important it is to get enough vitamin D through diet, supplements and adequate sunshine exposure. It turns out that vitamin D is crucial to healthy breathing.

Results of a groundbreaking study just published online ahead of the print edition of the American Thoracic Society'sAmerican Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicineconcludes avitamin D deficiencyalters lung growth and decreases lung function. Earlierstudieshave associated severity of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonarydisease(COPD) in humans to vitamin Ddeficiency.But the newresearchshows a lack of the vitamin can specifically alter lung structure and function -- and it is the first hardevidencelinking vitamin D deficiency with deficits in lung function and altered lung structure.

"Theresultsof this study clearly demonstrate that vitamin D deficiency alters lung growth, resulting in lower lung volume and decrements in lung function," Graeme Zosky, PhD, a research fellow at the Telethon Institute for Child Health Research in Subiaco,Australia, said in a media statement. "This is the first direct mechanistic evidence showing that vitamin D deficiency alters lung development, which may explain the association between obstructivelung diseaseand levels of vitamin D."

To carry out the study, the researchers evaluated lung responses of two-week-old mice that were vitamin D deficit and compared them to control mice with adequate vitamin D levels. To investigate what effects vitamin D deficiency might have caused in the growth, structure or function of thelungs, an instrument called a plethysmograph was used to measure the amount of air in the lungs; lung tissue samples were also studied to evaluatechangesin lung structure.

"The aim of this study was to determine if vitamin D deficiency results in altered lung function and/or structure as a potential explanation for the association between vitamin D and chronic respiratory disease," said Dr. Zosky, who is an adjunct senior lecturer at the University of Western Australia's Centre for Child Health Research. "Specifically, we aimed to determine if vitamin D deficiency has an influence on lung growth as indicated by a decrease in lung volume. We also wanted to determine if the deficiency alters the mechanical properties of the lung tissue due to changes in the structure of the lung."

The results? Airway resistance was significantly higher while lung volume was significantly lower in vitamin D deficient mice compared to control mice. What's more, examination of specific tissue responses showed theanimalslacking in vitamin D had reduced lung function. In addition, lungs in the vitamin D deficient animals were also smaller.

"For the first time, we have demonstrated a direct role for vitamin D in causing decreased lung function in the absence of known confounders such as physical inactivity, confirming the assertion by epidemiological studies that there is a relationship between vitamin D deficiency and lung function," Dr. Zosky said.

"The differences we observed in lung volume and lung mechanics, which were substantial and physiologically relevant, raise serious concerns regarding the increased prevalence of vitamin D deficiency in communities around the world. The results also raise concerns about the potential this deficiency may have on lunghealth, and in particular, the potential impact deficiency may have on the susceptibility to obstructive lung disease."

Dr. Zosky has called on the need for future studies to be conducted to determine whether vitamin D deficiency-induced alterations in lung growth increase the severity of obstructive lung disease. In addition, he pointed out that researchers need to identify susceptible populations whose lung health could be protected or improved with vitamin D supplementation.

Dr. Andrew Wakefield through Natural News. Most FANTASTIC interview! And so VITAL TO READ!!

2011-02-09T16:35:00.001-08:00

(NaturalNews) Dr Andrew Wakefield discusses the structure of scientific revolutions with Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, in a video interview available now on NaturalNews.TV:http://naturalnews.tv/v.asp?v=0CDBE...

In this interview, Dr Wakefield speaks at length about the interaction between human beings and infectious disease. This is perhaps the most in-depth discussion by Dr Wakefield that has ever been captured on camera about the long-term threat that vaccines pose to the future of humankind. Here's some of what Dr Wakefield says about the importance of expanding our view ofinfectious diseasebeyond the stilted, dumbed-down conceptual framework of conventionalmedicine, the CDC, the WHO, etc.

I've grown to have a huge respect for [infectiousbacteriaand viruses] over the years. We are here on the Earth now because ofinfection. Not in spite of it, because of it. Ourimmune systemhas been fashioned, shaped, designed over millions of years, since we first emerged from the primordial soup as single-celled organisms to evolve a hugely complex immune system that is a result of its interaction, its education with infectious agents. They are the prime factor in developing our immune responsiveness.

By going from a respiratory route of infection of anaturalvirus to an injected form of infection... from going from a different strain, a different route, a different dose of infection and a different meanpopulationage of exposure to infection, so kids used to getmumpsat 7 to 10 years of age, now they get it at 18 months -- when you change that subtle ecological balance which has evolved over such a long time, it is no wonder that you are going to have unexpected, unintended consequences.

The other thing, of course, is that we've now come to learn that so manyinfectionsor so many infectious agents are actually beneficial. We require them for education of ourgutimmune system. Theexposureof the gut, the colonization of the gut, the gut flora very early on, is a major determiner of how our immune system [develops.]

I've become a great respecter of infectious agents and their ability to elude us, to cause problems that we did not expect, and if we believe in our exquisite arrogance that we can exploit them, manipulate them in a test tube, give them back to people and exploit them in a way we call attenuated, then theviruswill laugh at us. It will simply laugh, because it has a collective intelligence that will not allow that to happen.

You're fighting mutations that are collectively more intelligent, more adaptable, and ultimately can cause what, we don't know. But you also createa population that now becomes dependent on vaccination. Not just the firstvaccine, but the second, the third, the fourth... it never ends. You create a population that is dependent on immunization.

The dogmatic intellectual brutality of modernmedical science

In this interview, Dr Wakefield also speaks about thevaccine attackdogswho use fear tactics to terrorizescientistsinto conforming to "accepted" views onvaccines:

I talk to many scientists, many physicians whosechildrenare affected byautismfollowing vaccines who say I know there is a problem, but we don't dare step out of line. We look at what happened to you, and we don't dare step out of line. ...And I do meet these people all the time, and to me that's unacceptable. Because the future of the world depends upon the wellbeing of our children.

[Science] has sold out to thepharmaceutical industry, and to the pharma-government complex. Medical schools are dependent upon their funding in large part from the pharmaceuticalindustry, or pharmaceutical industry influences, and this is dancing with the Devil in respect to the way in whichscienceshould be conducted, and the influences placed upon it.

This is what happened to me, there were constraints placed upon my valid vaccinesafetyresearch, because in the UK, the government had done a deal with the pharmaceutical industry that meant the government had picked up their liability for a knowingly dangerous Measles, Mumps, Rubella vaccine.They licensed a vaccine in July of 1997 which had, in that same month, been withdrawn in Canada for safety reasons. They knew it was not safe. It was cheaper. They put price before the wellbeing of children.

Now we've seen time and time again the corruption, the abuse of science, and it's happening largely on one side of this equation. You are told time and time again there are 14, 17, 20, millions of papers which exonerate the vaccine, saying there's no link betweenmercurythimerosal preservative and vaccinations. In fact when the data are analyzed, when thestudiesare looked at comprehensively,74 percent of those studies' published data support a link between mercury and autism.

And yet the public are being told, through this vast public relations machine, that the science is over, it's ruled it out. And when you take the science that proposes it is ruled out and reanalyze it correctly, which Dr Desoto did from the University of Northern Iowa, it shows exactly the opposite effect, and the scientists who wrote the original papers had to change their findings and conclusions. They had not analyzed the data properly.

So science in the private interest, I'm afraid, is damaging for the people. And that's what we're seeing at the moment.

The future of human civilization is threatened by modern vaccines

In this interview, Dr Wakefield also speaks out howvaccines may one day threaten the long-term survivability of the human race, even while forcing the world population to become dependent on vaccines in the mean time.

Here's what he says:

What happens to a population that becomes dependent for its very survival on vaccines? Who are we, and our children, and our grandchildren, then beholden to? And are the people we are beholden to, the pharmaceutical industry, are they actually capable of anticipating what that bacteria or virus is going to do next? No. Because they've never thought about it in the first place. So we are creating a marketplace; we are creating a wonderful revenue model; andwe are creating a potential time bomb for the population.

You cannot sterilize the world, nor should you. This whole notion of the Germ Theory needs to be radically modified in light of what we now know, so that we have scientists who acknowledge that this fundamental and very essential ecological interaction between man and microbe, or plant and microbe, is vital... but you have a commercial imperative which pays no heed to that at all.

The dangers of vaccines are quite real

Are vaccine ingredients truly dangerous to humanhealth? Dr Wakefield addresses that question in great detail:

You're taking children and you're giving them ethyl mercury from day one... indeed now in pregnant women in the influenza vaccine, and you are potentially very likely biological, plausibly,poisoning the immune system of those individuals, biasing it towards an immune response that is not protective against viral infections, and then you're giving liveviruses? What is the outcome of that going to be?

Aluminum is known to influence the immune system in the same way. Indeed, that's why it's there [in the vaccines]. It's there to promote an antibody response, a response which does notbiasthe immune system towards protection from intracellular organisms like viruses. You are deliberately doing it. So when you then give a live viral vaccine, what is the compound effect of that? When you're giving them all at the same time, what is the compound effect? No one knows. Why? Because no one's looking. Why? Because no one cares enough, that's why.

Do not take these infectious agents, these known toxins for granted. Do not make assumptions about them, particularly when you're using them in combination because they will produce untoward effects that you don't even expect, that you are not looking for, [that] you have not got on your list of adverse reactions that are known to be caused by this virus. You won't find them. Becauseyou have changed the whole interaction between the infectious agent... and the immune system. That's what you've changed, something so fundamental.

Dedicated to scientific truth, regardless of the personal and political costs

Ultimately, Dr Wakefield is a truly dedicatedscientistwho persistently pursues the evidence without regard to any particular political agenda or corporate agenda. Unfortunately for Dr Wakefield, this pursuit of scientific truth has put him in the crosshairs of the conventional medical system, the mainstream media and virtually the entire pseudoscientific vaccine-pushing attack dogs; but this has not deterred Dr Wakefield from continuing to pursue scientific answers to important questions.

And yet, Dr Wakefield has no illusions that his contributions to thesescientific revolutionsin the understanding of infectiousdiseaseand vaccines may not be recognized in his own lifetime:

If you're going to get involved in this kind of debate, then you as the scientist need to study thehistoryof medicine, the history of science as well, and understand this is the fate of many people who go out on a limb, who make extraordinary claims. That's what's going to happen. You mustn't expect to be exonerated in your lifetime... or ever.

But you must stick to the scientific principle and pursue the hypothesis until its natural conclusion, and not abandon it because you're put under political, financial or other pressures, if you can. Now, there is an additional imperative for a physician to do it, who is looking at these children... As long as I don't suffer from the vainglorious belief that this is all going to be resolved in my lifetime -- I hope it is for the sake of these children -- but I'm so far beyond that notion that I need some kind of redemption from the American Academy of Pediatrics, or The Lancet, I don't. These are instruments of a state that I don't really want to be associated with. I would like to stick to the principles of medical science, and that's my job. And I won't be deterred from that.

Who are we?

2011-02-02T09:09:00.001-08:00

People are so determined to hang onto all their old pre-conceived notions.. to what they thought they knew all of their lives. Mostly because if they "let go," they fear that they won't know themselves anymore. They want to feel solid in where they stand and who they feel their character in life is. Not only would it hurt their pride to come to a new realization that burns some of the old, but it would change the essence of who they are. They would have to get off the stage and stop playing the part of "Tom," "Aaron," "Fran," - who believes such and such... who does such and such... The idea is horrifying to some.

To stand for a time backstage in the darkness with no lines, no spotlight, no applause, no orders for "stage left" or "stage right"...simply listening to the sounds of the others as they continue in the act - the play. Observing the others bustling about, racing to and fro for their highlighted scenes. To walk off the stage and out the back door, and stroll down the way, with no script on hand. No adoring audience. "I left my character behind! It sits on the script page, now laying aside the stage entrance! What will they do without my character who plays *the pony,* *the tree,* *the lunatic,* *the hero,* *the clown,* *the saint,* *the one in agonizing pain* ??!! How will I know what my character role is, now? What will I do without my label? Without all the rules for my special scenes? Shall I put my left foot forward or my right foot forward first? How will I ever survive? How will I know when to smile? When to laugh? When to cry? When to sing? How will I know to help the old lady who is in need? What cue will I have to let me know when I should reach out in service or love? What ever will I do outside of the role I was assigned to play? Who am I, standing alone?"

Clive Barker says:

"We're too much ourselves.

Afraid of letting go of what we are,

in case we are nothing, and holding on so tight,

we lose everything else."

Dr. ANDREW WAKEFIELD IS NOT A fraud!!!

2011-01-27T07:42:00.001-08:00

(NaturalNews) New documents have emerged that clear Dr Andrew Wakefield of the allegations of fraud recently made by the British Medical Journal and its reporter Brian Deer. This new evidence "completely negates the allegations that I committed scientific
fraud. Brian Deer and Dr. Godlee of the British Medical Journal (BMJ) knew or should
have known about the facts set out below before publishing their false allegations," says Dr Andrew Wakefield (see sources, below).

Newly-revealed documents show that on December 20th, 1996, a meeting ofThe Inflammatory Bowel Disease Study Groupbased at theRoyal Free Hospital Medical Schoolfeatured a presentation by Professor Walker-Smith on seven of the children who would later become part of the group of patients Dr Wakefield wrote about in his 1998The Lancetpaper (which was later retracted by The Lancet).

Remember, Dr Wakefield has been accused of completely fabricating his findings about these same children in his 1998 paper, but these documents reveal thatfourteen months before Dr Wakefield's paper was published, two other researchers -- Professor Walker-Smith and Dr Amar Dhillon -- independently documented the same problems in these children, including symptoms of autism.

Thus, Dr Wakefield could not have "fabricated" these findings as alleged by the British Medical Journal, which now finds itself in the position of needing to issue a retraction, or it must now expand its accusations of fraud to include Professor Walker-Smith and Dr Dhillon... essentially, the BMJ must now insist that a "conspiracy of fraud" existed among at least these three researchers, and possibly more, in order to back up its allegation that Dr Wakefield's study results were fabricated.

The smoking-gun evidence

Professor Walker-Smith's 1996 presentation at the Royal Free Hospital Medical School was entitled,"Entero-colitis and Disintegrative Disorder Following MMR - A Review of the First Seven Cases."

His presentation notes began with the following text: ""I wish today, to present some preliminary details concerning seven children, all boys, who appear to have entero-colitis and disintegrative disorder, probably autism, following MMR. I shall now briefly present
their case history [sic]."

He then went on to detail the clinical history of these seven children as derived from his medical team as well as senior pathologist Dr Amar Dhillon. Importantly, Dr Andrew Wakefield was not part of this investigation. This means that Dr Wakefield's findings wereindependently replicatedby another medical research team.

The British Medical Journal's accusations against Dr Wakefield -- that he fabricated his findings -- are therefore false. The mainstream media accusation that Dr Wakefield's findings have "never been replicated" is also blatantly false.

Here are the notes on the seven children, as presented in 1996,14 months BEFORE Dr Wakefield published his landmark paper in The Lancet:

BMJ caught in its own fraud

These documents reveal that the British Medical Journal has been caught in its own fraud for willfully ignoring this evidence, which was presented to it long before its recent publication of Brian Deer's article calling Dr Wakefield a fraud.

The BMJ willfully ignored this evidence and simply decided to destroy Dr Wakefield's professional reputation by any means necessary. As Dr Wakefield explains:

"In allowing itself to become the vehicle for Brian Deer's particular brand of journalism; in circumventing the process of due diligence in its enthusiasm to "kill the beast", the BMJ has taken a huge risk. As the document presented above shows, this was a mistake. Medicine, presented with the possibility of an iatrogenic catastrophe, has boarded a dissonant bandwagon and has gone after those who have concerns - genuine concerns - that childhood vaccines may be responsible, at least in part, for the autism epidemic. The relevant science has been grossly misrepresented, crushed beneath the wheels of a Public Relations 16-wheeler that is out of control. In the meantime a relentless tsunami of damaged children claims this land."

Brian Deer caught as a liar

It has also been revealed that journalist Brian Deer, the author of the BMJ article condemning Dr Wakefield as a fraud, is himself a liar. In attempting to gather evidence for his article in the BMJ, he lied about his identity and entered the home of one of the parents of the autism children. Specifically, he claimed he wasworking for The Sunday Timeseven though he was never a Sunday Times employee.

This is just the tip of the iceberg of the outright deception that has been used by the BMJ and Brian Deer in their attempt to silence a doctor whose only "crime" was publicly expressing concern about the safety of MMR vaccines.

That the BMJ and its writer Brian Deer have now been caught ignoring evidence and engaging in their own fraud gives credence to the idea that MMR vaccines may, indeed, not only be dangerous; but thatthey may be so dangerous that the top medical journals have to lie about the facts in order to protect them.

What's clear here is that the BMJ has strayed so far from the realm of evidence-based scientific thinking that it can no longer be called a reputable medical journal at all. Itscallous disregardfor the truth -- and its politically-motivated witch hunt against a researcher who only sought to protect the health of children -- exposes it asa danger to the scientific community and the world of conventional medicine.

As this truth unfolds,these revelations will rock the medical world and expose these science journals as the frauds they truly are. Think about this: While these medical journals are taking money from vaccine manufacturers (who pay their ads), they are ignoring any scientific evidence they don't like in order to vilify anyone who threatens the profits of these very same vaccine companies! And yet, these medical journals never admit that their very existence depends on the financial flow of money from these vaccine manufacturers who are strongly impacted by their editorial decisions!

There is fraud taking place in the vaccine industry today, of course, and the medical journals are the point men who push their distorted disinformation into the minds of doctors, journalists and anyone they can reach with their scientific distortions. At stake is the future of the vaccine industry, which is of course a multi-billion-dollar industry that thrives on misinformation and the ongoingscientific censorship of the factssurrounding the health risks posed by vaccines.

Fluorescent Light Bulbs are polluting the environment!! DON'T USE THEM!!!

2011-01-21T07:22:00.001-08:00

If you use Fluorescent Light bulbs, you will eventually be tossing them out when they are dead! - Which means you toss MERCURY into the Earth and our DRINKING WATER!!! Stop polluting our children!!! Say NO to Fluorescent Lights!!

(NaturalNews) In 2007, the U.S. Congress passed the Energy Independence and Security Act which contains a subsection that bans the sale of incandescent light bulbs beginning in 2012. But the new Congress recently unveiled the Better Use of Light Bulbs Act, or H.R. 91, which would repeal this subsection and restore Americans' freedom of choice to buy the light bulbs of their choice.

The idea to ban incandescent bulbs emerged from the false notion that compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFL) are better forthe environmentbecause they use lessenergy. But the truth of the matter is thatCFLsare loaded with toxicmercury, which upon breakage or disposal pollutes theenvironmentvia seepage into groundwater, rivers and lakes, and threatens humanhealth.

"CFLs are sotoxicbecause of the mercury in the glass tubing that the cleanup procedure spelled out by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is downright scary," wrote Phyllis Schlafly, founder and president of the Eagle Forum, in an editorial at WND. "The EPA warns that if we break a CFL, we must take the pieces to a recycling center and not launder 'clothing or bedding because mercury fragments in theclothingmay contaminate the machine and/or pollute sewage'."

Such a scenario hardly sounds "green". And at the same time,incandescent bulbscontain no toxic chemicals at all. But none of this stopped the Bush Administration from signing thebaninto effect that year.

"People don't wantCongressdictating what light fixtures they can use," said Rep. Joe Barton (R-TX), one of the co-authors of the new bill. "Traditional incandescent bulbs are cheap and reliable. Alternatives, including the most common replacement Compact Fluorescent Lights or CFLs, are more expensive and health hazards -- so why force them on the American people?"
