by Johnson, Ludwell H., III. about 1601 pgs.47-64
In
the 1630 book "The True Travels, Adventures, and Observations of Captaine
John Smith in Europe, Asia, Africa and America" "John Smith was now
about to plunge into the nightmare world of eastern Europe: where Catholics fought Protestants, or
Turks, and Protestants fought Turks, or Catholics, or renegade mercenaries, or
all three: where Germans fought Hungarians or Turks or Both: where Hungarians
were sometimes both Austrian allies and Turkish vassals."
"This was a world where the Austrian
emperor of the Holy Roman Empire, Rudolph II, relieved his chronic insanity
with periodic fits of uncontrollable rage; where Sigismund Bathory, Prince of
Transylvania, of a family long-tainted with madness, abdicated and reclaimed his
throne no fewer than three times' where his cousin Elizabeth, with the
tran-sylvanian penchant so reminiscent of Count Dracula, indulged in beauty
baths that
ultimately
took the blood, and lives, of 650 young women."
"It was a place where incessant
warfare and banditry brought desolation, famine, familial cannibalism, and
other unspeakable horrors; where lucky prisoners wee enslaved, the less lucky
butchered, and the luckless skinned alive."

zealously embraced the notionof "the little
brain in the gut," as it's affectionately known. "What Mother
Nature had done, rather than packing all of those
neurons in the big brain in the skull and sending long lines
to the gut, is distribute the microcomputer, the
little brain, right along with the gut," says Jackie Wood, a
neurobiologist at Ohio State University.) Printed 2 pgs.
[Note:
In 1917 A Gernam scientist Paul Trendelenburg found out about a self-contained,
self-
regulating nervous system that operates
independently of the cranial brain or spinal cord, embedded in the
wall of the gut.
By the year 2000 it was found out that there are mast cells embedded in
the lining of the
gut, and that the gut brain has at least 30
neurochemicals that are the same as the ones in the crainial brain.
IBS is not imagined, or a psychosomatic cranial
mental problem but can be caused by the “little brain”
causing chronic abdominal pain, discomfort, and
irregular bowel movements to the nerves or little brain in
the gut. ]

about this last one. If the "germ theory of medicine" were
true, there would be no one alive to believe it. Our

Pederasts,
encouraged by the homosexual victory and armed with Kinsey’s reports
legitimizing child-sex and adult-child sex, are engaged in a protracted battle
to lower the age-of- consent laws. "Sex before eight or it’s too
late," is the motto of the René Guyon Society. The British Pedophile
Information Exchange (P.I.E.) advocates that it be reduced to age four.35 Dr.
Sigmund Freud considered homosexuality "an arrest of sexual
development" and "intergenerational sex," or pedophilia, as
"cowardly" and a "substitute" sexual practice for
"impotent" people. However, "a nationally recognized expert on
sex offenders. . . stated that pedophilia. . . may be a sexual orientation
rather than a sexual deviation. [This] raised the question as to whether
pedophiles may have rights."36 Spokesmen for the North American Man-Boy
Love Association (NAMBLA) have quoted Kinsey extensively in arguing for the
right to have sex with underage boys. If pedophilia is no longer classified as
a mental disorder and the
age-of-consent laws are lowered,
how will we protect our children?
Parental authority is now being challenged by feminists and pedophiles
clamoring for "children’s rights": the right to privacy, the right to
association, the right to family planning services. . . What about the child’s
right to grow up without being exploited? How can a four- year-old child
possibly enter into a consensual
relationship with an adult or even another child? As a society, we have
already determined that children are not ready to be drafted, allowed to smoke,
drink or even to run for President of the United States. Sex is no different.

“Spontaneous Generation.” [Online] Retrieved December 4, 2000
http://www.csulb.edu/~acolburn/Spontaneous_Generation.htm
“Spontaneous
generation enjoyed popular support for another 200 years, bolstered by
philosophical movements predicated on the teachings of Immanuel Kant and
others. Kant believed that reason was superior to observation, where the truth
could be reasoned to, while observation only provided minimal understanding of
nature.
As the teachings of Kant fell
from favor and the time of Darwin approached, the idea of spontaneous generation
began to fall from popular favor. The religious institutions of the mid 1800’s
were bothered by one of the consequences of spontaneous generation. Perhaps
Redi put it best when he said "I shall express my belief that the Earth,
after having brought forth the first plants and animals at the beginning by
order of the Supreme and Omnipotent Creator, has never produced any kinds of
plants or animals, either perfect or imperfect; and everything which we know in
past or present times that she has produced, came solely from the true seeds of
the plants and animals themselves, which thus, through means of their own,
preserve their species." Interpretations of spontaneous generation
indicated that life could appear without the hand of God, which prompted many
scientists to study the doctrine.
Enter French scientist Louis
Pasteur, the man credited by modern texts as ending the debate and refuting the
doctrine of spontaneous generation. By 1862 when he wrote his first memoirs
concerning spontaneous generation, Pasteur was already a popular and prominent
scientist due to his discoveries of bacterial fermentation and the process we
now know as pasteurization.”

"John Smith Before Jamestown"
by Johnson, Ludwell H., III. about 1601 pgs.47-64
In the
1630 book "The True Travels, Adventures, and Observations of Captaine John
Smith in Europe,
Asia, Africa and ] America"
"John Smith was now about to plunge into the nightmare world of eastern
Europe: where Catholics fought Protestants, or Turks, and Protestants
fought Turks, or Catholics, or
renegade mercenaries, or all three:
where Germans fought Hungarians or Turks or Both: where Hungarians
were sometimes both Austrian allies
and Turkish vassals."
"This was a world where the Austrian
emperor of the Holy Roman Empire, Rudolph II, relieved
his chronic insanity with periodic
fits of uncontrollable rage; where Sigismund Bathory, Prince of
Transylvania, of a family
long-tainted with madness, abdicated
and reclaimed his throne no fewer than
three times' where his cousin
Elizabeth, with the tran-sylvanian penchant so reminiscent of Count Dracula,
indulged in beauty baths that
ultimately took the blood, and lives, of
650 young women."
"It
was a place where incessant warfare and banditry brought desolation, famine,
familial
cannibalism, and other unspeakable
horrors; where lucky prisoners wee enslaved, the less lucky butchered,
and the luckless skinned
alive."

by Brian Kohler, National Rep -
Health, Safety and Environment
In the March, 1994 edition of
"The Guardian" the problem of environmental (and workplace)
contamination by Estrogenic chemicals was discussed.
Estrogenic chemicals are those that exert an effect
on the hormone system in such a way as to mimic
estrogen, a female sex hormone. It seems that many synthetic substances are
capable of having such an effect through a variety of mechanisms.

ESTROGENS
- THE NEW ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD?
by
Brian Kohler, National Rep - Health, Safety and Environment
Recent reports have highlighted the possibility that
there is widespread contamination of the environment
by compounds which disrupt the endocrine system. The
endocrine system is the network of glands and
organs that maintain hormone balance. Hormones are
chemicals (proteins, actually) produced by the body
that control a wide range of biological activities
from metabolism to fetal development. Their power is such
that a small variation in hormone levels can cause a
large biological effect.

THE OILING OF AMERICA Part 1,
Part 2. by Mary G. Enig and Sally Fallon
© 1998 by Mary G. Enig, PhD MGEnig@aol.com
Modern-day diets
high in hydrogenated vegetable oils instead of traditional animal fats are
implicated in
causing
a significant increase in heart disease and cancer.
Part 1
of 2
http://www.nexusmagazine.com/OilingAmerica.1.html
Part 2 of 2
http://www.nexusmagazine.com/OilingAmerica.2.html
[Note: shows that trans fats,
like soybean and canola are bad for you.]
from part 1 (Polyunsaturated
fatty acids are the kind of fats found
in
large amounts in highly liquid vegetable oils made from corn, soybeans,
safflower seeds and sunflower seeds.
Mono-unsaturated
fatty acids are found in large amounts in olive oil, palm oil and lard;
saturated fatty acids are found in
large
amounts in fats and oils that are solid at room temperature, e.g., butter,
tallow and coconut oil.)
(In
the years that followed, a number of population studies demonstrated that the
animal model - especially one derived
from
vegetarian animals - was not a valid approach for the problem of heart disease
in human omnivores.)
(The
1968 International Atherosclerosis Project, in which over 22,000 corpses in 14
nations were cut open and examined
for
plaques in the arteries, showed the same degree of atheroma in all parts of the
world - in populations that suffered from a
great
deal of heart disease, and in populations that had very little or none at
all.8)
(Most
animal fats - like butter, lard and tallow - have a large proportion of
saturated fatty acids. Saturated fats are straight
chains
of carbon and hydrogen that pack together easily so that they are relatively
solid at room temperature. Oils from
seeds
are composed mostly of polyunsaturated fatty acids. These molecules have kinks
in them at the point of the
unsaturated
double bond. They do not pack together easily and therefore tend to be liquid
at room temperature.
Judging
from both food data and turn-of-the-century cookbooks, the American diet in
1900 was a rich one, with at least 35
to
40 per cent of calories coming from fats, mostly dairy fats in the form of
butter, cream, whole milk, and also eggs. Salad
dressing
recipes usually called for egg yolks or cream; only occasionally for olive oil.
Lard or tallow served for frying. Rich
dishes
like head cheese and scrapple contributed additional saturated fats during an
era when cancer and heart disease were
rare.
Butter substitutes made up only a small portion of the American diet, and these
margarines were blended from
coconut
oil, animal tallow and lard - all rich in natural saturates.
The
technology by which liquid vegetable oils could be hardened to make margarine
was first discovered by a French
chemist
named Sabatier. He found that a nickel catalyst would cause the hydrogenation
(the addition of hydrogen to
unsaturated
bonds to make them saturated) of ethylene gas to ethane. Subsequently, the
British chemist Norman developed
the
first application of hydrogenation to food oils and took out a patent. In 1909,
Procter & Gamble acquired the US rights
to a
British patent on making liquid vegetable oils solid at room temperature. The
process was used on both cotton-seed oil
and
lard to give "better physical properties", to create shortenings that
did not melt as easily on hot days.
The
hydrogenation process transforms unsaturated oils into straight 'packable'
molecules by rearranging the hydrogen
atoms
at the double bonds. In nature, most double bonds occur in the cis
configuration - that is, with both hydrogen atoms
on
the same side of the carbon chain at the point of the double bond. It is the
cis isomers of fatty acids that have a bend or
kink
at the double bond, preventing them from packing together easily. Hydrogenation
creates trans double bonds by
moving
one hydrogen atom across to the other side of the carbon chain at the point of
the double bond. In effect, the two
hydrogen
atoms then balance each other and the fatty acid straightens, creating a
packable 'plastic' fat with a much higher
melting
temperature.)

Nor is bleaching the only threat to
corals. Increasingly, Cervino points out, these colonies are also
exhibiting
infections, tumors, and "obscure" lesions. "We've been
going to photos of corals from as far back
as the
1930s," he says, and find no sign of many of these diseases.
Over the past 15 years, for
instance, "there has been a very striking increase in the frequency and
extent of
harmful algal blooms," notes JoAnn M. Burkholder, an aquatic
botanist at North Carolina State
University in
Raleigh.
HEED's data now link many of these
blooms of poison-producing algae to pollution (SN: 9/27/97,
p. 202) and a widespread warming of coastal and shallow waters. Moreover,
Burkholder observes, HEED's data suggest that the ecological impacts of these blooms are more pervasive than most
biologists had realized. Until recently,
scientists typically investigated marine disease outbreaks as isolated incidents. The idea that some might be linked
struck Epstein when he began ruminating about
a host of events in 1987.

The dangerous consequences of factory farming are being felt all across the country
BY ANDREW NIKIFORUK
Long after the dead have
been buried in Walkerton, Ont., rural Canadians who rely on
groundwater will continue to feel and smell
the impact of a largely
unreported revolution: the growth of
factory farms. This new industry, or what governments
call "intensive livestock operations," has unsettled
farm communities from New
Brunswick to Alberta. Unlike the family enterprises of old, which proudly
cared for 20 pigs or
60 cattle, these new facilities operate on an entirely
different and largely unregulated
scale.
In addition, the world's key pork producers, Taiwan and
Holland, recently pushed
production into
the danger zone,
causing severe water pollution
and animal disease outbreaks. But their environmental
disasters have had an effect
here: hog barns managed by Europeans or funded by Asian investors are
popping up all over
the country.

suicide, anger, rage and violence. I do not have an opinion on microwaves but
these studies

It would seem that these people

problems - it strips the myelin sheath off of the (neuron's) axon. Brain cells
are known as axons, and stripping the myelin

off of them causes them to short circuit as well as the potential of other

The Health Effects Of Canola Oil - None Dare
Call It Rape

From the Idaho Observer 5-99
http://proliberty.com/observer/19990502.htm
12-13-99
Canola is a name that recently appeared in the
marketplace and is apparently derived from
Canadian-oil. Canola
oil is actually produced from the rape seed plant. Rape (Brassica napus),
a member
of the mustard family, is
listed in the Encyclopedia Britannica as a poisonous plant with toxic effects
which
include pulmonary emphysema,
respiratory distress, anemia, constipation, irritability and blindness in
cattle.
According to John Thomas, author of Young Again: How to Reverse the Aging
Process, The name
canola disguised the
introduction of rape oil to
America.
Beware of Canola Oil, Canola Oil is an Industrial Oil, Not Fit For Human
Consumption.

A chemicals cure seems worse than

Chemicals are turning up or being
added to such diverse things as cigarettes to rain.
Chemicals can affect a rudimentary nervous system
(snail), lymph glands, or the higher nervous system (brain) of a human being.
CNS (Central Nervous System), it
seems as if many diseases that affect humans have to have a intermediate stage
within a simple “nervous” system of a plant or snail. (I need to
find a word that implies a cellerar level – beginning of the nervous system)
dif.
Between genetic to cell, contagious
diseases do they rewrite the DNA, is that why we “can” develop and immunity?
Drugs such as Ritalin are not
effective as a band aid, they can cover up the symptoms but the damage is still
being done, and some time the drugs themselves add to the damage. Ref: it
seems as if children that were already on drugs did the school shootings in
America.
All chemicals are
systematic and are (drank) uptaken by the plant and / or absorbed by the plant
stomata, washing will not remove them. Put a stalk of celery in a glass
of red food dye and a few dyes latter you will see the dye as it travel up the
celery by osmosis.
GM plants
“seem “ to need more chemicals; some of these crops are developed to need more
chemicals.
Chemicals can take up to 10 years or
more to break down, some break down in to forms that are even deadlier than the
original chemical.

"astonished" to receive the prize, his diary entry for October 26,

(New 23Oct 98) Monsanto
is the company that makes Aspartame, Bovine Growth Hormone, Terminator Seed
Technology, Roundup, and assorted other goodies that are being proven
detrimental to the health of the family.
Sugar has been
shown to be addictive and a hazard to your health(1). It has been linked to
lung disease when used to cure tobacco. Think of burnt sugar, now think of
burning it in a cigarette. But what of cigarette manufacturers, wonder of
some of them are ready to make marijuana cigarettes - considering California's
newest legislation. What are the alternatives? It is not Aspartame or
artificial sweeteners, the ones currently on the market have been shown to
CAUSE things like Diabetes, heart attack to hyperactivity and death. So what is
the alternative? Macrobiotic Cooking(2) and the cookbooks that they have put
out can be a guideline. If anyone has other ideas, or urls please send them to
me! Will be putting a editorial on sugar in this site within the next several
weeks. In the Middle Ages refined sugar was originally handled by apothecary
shops as a dangerous drug, it was not until the Age of Enlightenment that it
started being used. It is one of the causes of degenerative disease, as well as
mental and emotional disorders. Bottom line - do we label ADD, ADHD as genetic
because we refuse to stop using things that are detrimental to our health or do
we look for the answers? One more help - some vitamins have a bad bases, check
out info on the web, I suggest you look through the links - I use NATURAL and
only the natural food supplements. These are different in the ways that they
are made. That means that even though the merger between Monsanto and American
Home Products (makers of Centrum) fell through, "I" think that in
some ways they are still treading the same path.

The answers seem as varied as the people that give
them. Yet, I have found that there is a definite link between
hyperactivity and chemical reactions. One of these is described in Sweet
Poison, -need a link to formaldehyde in some
furniture for this next area-.
Could this mean that if we use a type of elimination technique to see what
items might be affecting ourselves and our children, and while we try that see
if the elimination technique (of chemicals) has any effect on the amount of
medicine they require (if any) that we may be in for a surprise. Could
this have started during the time that many people were trying to imply that
much of what is / has happened to us is strictly genetic?
There are some children and
adults that never seem to have "obvious" allergies or reactions to
the things they eat. Still I know of no one that will not have a reaction
to Ammonia if they are around it long enough, and anyone that has a swimming
pool know that what acid can do. Up till now medical professionals seem
to have believed that the blood / brain barrier would protect our brains from
what happens to our bodies, research has shown this is not true. If there
can be varied reactions and reaction times to something as common as ammonia,
what of some of the other items in our environment?
ADD - ADHD - GIFTED = learning
styles have been around for ages. What I take exception to is people
saying that everyone should be a carbon copy "peer group" and that if
the child or person does not get along where they are that they will not get
along anywhere else. That they are locked in some kind of cage for
life. If the effects of Ritalin are suppose to be different for adults
and children, then this implys that there is change. . .(New 02 Nov 98)
Watch out for Aspartame in toothpaste,

accordingly all Experience hath shewn, that Mankind are more disposed to

FLUORIDE, TEETH AND
THE ATOMIC BOMB
BY JOEL
GRIFFITHS AND CHRIS BRYSON
Waste
Not #414
http://www.fluoridealert.org/wastenot414.htm
One of the most
controversial aspects
of the research
that allegedly culminated in the epidemic is that it was
funded by the US
atomic energy commission, which was anxious to discover
what might happen
to communities when large numbers were wiped out by
nuclear war. While
there are no texts or recorded speeches by Neel
explaining his
conduct, Prof Turner believes the only explanation is that he
was trying to test
controversial eugenic theories like the Nazi scientist
Josef Mengele. He
quotes another anthropologist who read the manuscript as
saying: "Mr
Tierney's analysis is a case study of the dangers in science of
the uncontrolled
ego, of lack of respect for life, and of greed and
self-indulgence. It
is a further extraordinary revelation of malicious and
perverted work
conducted under the aegis of the atomic energy commission."

The idea that a CNS
is automatically the highest form of life could go the way of spontaneous
generation. Francesco Redi disproved
spontaneous generations in 1668. This
was the start of humans being able to prove that we are not alone in wanting to
survive. What level of intelligence is
needed to survive? Currently most
people could say that being organic and having a “DNA source code” allowing
replication would be the minimum standard.
Using a DNA source code as the foundation of intelligence could allow
the hypothesis of: oil being intelligent if it is the by-product of bacteria
like Thomas Gold of Harvard believes.
This paper is to
present two hypnosis. The first one is
that curtailing new ideas by “Food Laws” is detrimental to free speech and
continuing technology. The second
hypnosis is that local opinion is important Internationally, and that stifling
those opinions can be detrimental. The
saying “From the mouth of a child” shows that professionals can sometimes miss
obvious conclusions, or forget the foundations their conclusions are based on.
The end result of
this paper is that NAFTA, bio-chips, Mondex, Corporations as “juristic
persons”, and a belief in all knowledge being in a computer could be
detrimental. What if Biochips could
develop a fungal infection? It could
also be like being in a library that none of the books have titles, all
information, and no new connections.
The brain processes sound energy, light energy and more, has a
topography that bio- chips can not match, because of the potential of having to
take the wiring from the originating organs – eyes, ears, ect.
I may come up with
a novel idea but these ideas should be nothing more than what a stockbroker or
a bank loan officer needs to speculate on in authorizing a loan. When it gets to the point of individual is
not being allowed to have new ideas, that they are the property of
corporations, something is wrong.
Will add to this
but I am attempting to post this to show that the propaganda put out by
advertising companies by branding someone like me an environmentalist or alarmist
at worst or a non “peer reviewed” layperson at best is damaging to all
involved.
People should be
allowed to keep their own intellectual property and be able to converse about
their ideas at a local or global level.
For the
philosophies that the Bush family seems to have advocated like backing
Hitler, and more are not the ideas that
will help us.
Science Fiction and Technical
writing may finance my Physics degree, but the way food slander laws are
multiplying I may not be able to write about anything but computer
programs. The new slander laws “seem”
to actually be over intellectual property rights, so how can they be wrong?
The current laws have multiple
problems, but the first, and main problem is that they stifle the creativity of
writers. The stifling of individual
rights was the basis of a 1950 book called “1984” by George Orwell and genetic
speculation was the basis of the 1932 book “Brave New World” by Aldous
Huxley. These books show that the idea
of a corporation having a monopoly and of genetic speculation made money for
these writers. Now it seems as if
corporations are trying to have a monopoly on the creative ideas.
Creative ideas have been the
basis of many new businesses and some of those businesses have gone belly
up. Currently some corporations are
selling Genetically Modified seed to farmers and instead of taking the risks
that are part of creating a new business they are using the farmer as a scrape
goat, by making the farmer pay the price of experimental field trails. This paper addresses the some forms of
genetic engineering as a business fad.
Some fads like the wearing of wigs by members of British Parliament
allow people to remember the foundation of the laws the Parliament is based on,
other fads that can not face the light of public scrutiny and speculation will
go the way of the male cod piece.
The nursery rhyme “Ring Around
The Rosie” has it’s origins from the London Plague of
is based on the
skin discolorations that signaled the start of
about the Plague devastating London in 1665.
I found out that the brain is 60 to 70
percent fat, and I could think of all kinds of story
lines.
1) Since the brain
is an energy source and an intelligence matrix, speculating on how many other
energy sources could have intelligence, possible suspects would be the sun, crude oil,
nuclear items, and giant red woods.
What kind of intelligence would be required? I puzzled over that question, and considered my in house examples
of an cat and several tanks of tropical fish.
Sitting in front ot the 50 gal tank gave me the answer. Basic intelligence could be defined as a
short attention span but a long memory about items needed for survival. So, what kind of survival would a microbe
like bacteria need to know about? Well
it seems as if bacteria can decode and use different types of (DNA) food, some
bacteria can even convert toxic chemicals.
Is it possible for microbes that bud or clone to have DNA memories that
span the beginning of the world? Could bacteria
(that survive radiation) drift through space and enter our through
the hole in our ozone layer? If so what
kind of DNA source code would it have?
Would it have originated on a world that blew it’s self up? What would radiation resistant bacteria
consider acceptable as a means of survival?
Fungus,
an microbe that we use but can also have toxins that can kill us. If survival is intelligence “or” intelligence is based on
survival, what other types of intelligence would want to survive? Would fungus want to survive and what would
survival be.

thinking led to Confucius,

A chemicals cure seems worse
than the disease and pathogen resistant crops are out there.
Chemicals are turning up or
being added to such diverse things as cigarettes to rain.
Chemicals
can affect a rudimentary nervous system (snail), lymph glands, or the higher
nervous system (brain) of a human being.
CNS
(Central Nervous System), it seems as if many diseases that affect humans have
to have a intermediate stage within a simple “nervous” system of a plant or
snail. (I need to find a word that
implies a cellerar level – beginning of the nervous system) dif. Between
genetic to cell, contagious diseases do they rewrite the DNA, is that why we
“can” develop and immunity?
Drugs
such as Ritalin are not effective as a band aid, they can cover up the symptoms
but the damage is still being done, and some time the drugs themselves add to
the damage. Ref: it seems as if
children that were already on drugs did the school shootings in America.
All
chemicals are systematic and are (drank) uptaken by the plant and / or absorbed
by the plant stomata, washing will not remove them. Put a stalk of celery in a glass of red food dye and a few dyes
latter you will see the dye as it travel up the celery by osmosis.
GM
plants “seem “ to need more chemicals; some of these crops are developed to
need more chemicals.
Chemicals
can take up to 10 years or more to break down, some break down in to forms that
are even deadlier than the original chemical.
IQ
was thought to be genetic, propaganda to keep slaves. Blond jokes seem to have originated because of blond ‘slavs’
being the slaves, and the Hitler era pushed that, how many true blonds were
there in his higher command. If you
read Mark Twain in the Hapsburg / Austrian legal system you will see that it
already had things like filer busters like the American system has. The definition of a human and human rights
were being debated to the determent of those that wanted to keep their slaves. In America the black American was singled
out, in many European states it was the blond ‘slav’. I do not know if there could be a genetic basis to IQ but your IQ
or instinct / ability to survive can be taken away if you do not have the right
nutriention.

This
is beginning to look as if I will have several papers that start with different
themes out of this rough draft. So, on
with number 3.
In
connecting the dots there are many things that do not make sense about
NAFTA. NAFTA has helped mess up
communications to the point that we are having a world wide problem with
different fungal types, from mold spores in the air to red tides for the last
several years. Antibiotics, sugar and
other chemicals that kill the bacteria that is beneficial to us in the same
situation as agar from seaweed or irradiated meat that has contacted air.
When
the bacteria that is beneficial to us is killed by antibiotics, sugar, or other
chemicals it leaves us open ground for fungus to invade
If you do write about this problem you run
the risk of being slapped with a law suit
Why would anyone want to
deregulate banks and savings and loans, then possibly go to the extent of
allowing insurance companies to do finance and investment. When insurance companies are traded on the
international market and if you have your money in an insurance company – who
owns your money?
It
has already been shown that items from a plant can exist through natural (bee)
processing, and effect humans.
“Tansy ragwort contains
at least six pyrrolizidine alkaloids which by themselves are not toxic. When combined with liver enzymes after
ingestion they are converted to pyrroles which result in liver dysfunction and
sometimes death.”
In the late 1950’s a Nobel prize
was awarded to Dr. Lederberg for finding
out that bacteria can recombine in sexual ways. This could mean that human reproduction has saved us from micros,
fungus
and other problems involved in cloning

Looking
back at the debate over diapers, from our perspective in this year 2000,
Could the
chemical companies want the heat taken off of them – how many chemical
companies are (along or part) with the diaper companies – or could some people
have played them off of each other, to make laws allowing corporations to have
more rights. Anyway, it looks as if
this debate will start up again.
My take on this is that – an
individual mother that uses cloth dipers is also paying the city she lives in
for whatever power and water is used, by buying the disposables she is giving
the manufacturing money and the utility money to another “entity” that may not
even bank in the city that the manufacturing plant is in. Diaper links with the hazards that
disposables can have are below, more links that are applicable are in my
“Intellectual Property Rights” section.

a powerful central nervous system (CNS) toxin and might adversely affect human
brain functioning even at low doses.” “Today, news that scientists from the

dieoff -- By DAVE SALTONSTALL

August 7,

http://www.nydailynews.com
Now, however, many area lobstermen, and a growing number
of scientists, believe that New York City's aerial spraying of pesticides last
fall to combat the West Nile virus, along with huge runoffs from Hurricane
Floyd, may have combined to trigger the lobster kill. More than 10 million lobsters, or 90% of stock, are thought to
have died last fall in the western part of the Long Island Sound, where catches
remain one-fifth of what they were last year.
Researchers say the pesticide theory begins with a simple
fact: Lobsters are bugs. Like mosquitoes, they are arthropods, or members of
the same genealogical family.
Lobsters also are known to be extremely sensitive to
insecticides, in many cases, even more susceptible than insects. But research
suggests that although pesticides such as malathion may well have played a role
in the kill, the story probably is much more complicated.

Chesapeake
Bay Still Struggling with Pollution
http://ens.lycos.com/ens/sep2000/2000L-09-21-06.html
By Cat Lazaroff
ANNAPOLIS, Maryland, September 21, 2000 (ENS) - The
Chesapeake Bay ecosystem is dangerously out of balance, says the conservation
group the Chesapeake Bay Foundation. The group’s annual "State of the Bay
Report," released Wednesday, shows that despite modest improvements since
the 1980s, key Bay systems are still in trouble.
Conservationists say the state of the Chesapeake Bay,
bordered by Virginia, Maryland and Delaware, is an illustration of the problems
facing all of the nation’s coastal wetlands.
"On balance, the Bay is in somewhat better shape
than it was 15 years ago," said Baker. "But continued water quality
problems, as evidenced in the nutrient runoff and algae blooms during the rainy
summer of 2000, and the over-stressed crab fishery demonstrate the complexity
of Bay restoration."

Caspian Seals Dying of Virus nfection
http://ens.lycos.com/ens/sep2000/2000L-09-20-03.html
PORTAFERRY, Northern
Ireland, September 20, 2000 (ENS) -
Thousands of Caspian seals have died in the Caspian Sea since April 2000.
An international team of scientists, working as part of the Caspian
Environment Program's Ecotoxicology Project (ECOTOX), has now concluded
canine distemper virus infection was the primary cause of this die-off.
The Caspian seal is listed
as Vulnerable on the World Conservation Union-IUCN Red List. From April to
June over 11,000 Caspian seals were found dead along the Kazakhstan coast
and an unknown number of dead seals were also reported from the Russian,
Azerbaijan and Turkmenistan sectors of the Caspian Sea. Reports of an
increased mortality rate were still being received as late as August.
|
|
Microscopic lesions,
characteristic of canine distemper, were found in the seal tissues and
infection with canine distemper virus was confirmed by serological and
molecular methods.
These findings in seals from
several geographically dispersed regions of the Caspian Sea provide strong
evidence that canine distemper virus infection was the primary cause of the
disease outbreak.
Arctic Wildlife Wounded and
Scarred by Pollution
http://ens.lycos.com/ens/sep2000/2000L-09-18-11.html
MONTREAL, Quebec, Canada, September 18, 2000 (ENS) - A
new survey of hunters and elders in Canada's far north has found troubling
signs of pollution's effect on wildlife.
"One time I have hunted a seal in the summer, and
everything about the seal was unhealthy," said Koalie Kooneeliusie, a
hunter from Qikirtarjuaq. "Internal organs were swollen. I have seen seals
with patches of skin missing. The skin looked as if it was taken out, as if cut
out. The skin had holes in them."
"Perhaps one of the most interesting observations
that was made of seals, walruses, and narwhals was the presence of round wounds
in the skin," said the survey report.
"These were described as looking like burns or that
a circular bit of skin was removed. A similar abnormality found on a walrus in
Arctic Bay in March was analyzed and determined to be caused by the strain of
bacteria that is responsible for the flesh eating disease."

Colorado farmers Galen Travis and Jim Dobler have seen
the future, and it stinks. Just upwind of their grain fields, a company called
Midwest Farms, owned by hog entrepreneur Ronald Houser, plans to build an $80
million facility that will raise 450,000 hogs a year. From Colorado to the
Carolinas, enterprising growers like Houser and agribusiness giants such as
Cargill and Continental Grain are building such livestock factories to
mass-produce hogs for packers like Hormel Foods and John Morrell.

Sea Sickness.(pollution, algae blooms, and climate change
affect coral
reefs and other marine organisms)
Author/s: Janet Raloff
Marine epidemiology comes of age
Nor is bleaching the only threat to corals. Increasingly,
Cervino points out, these
colonies are also exhibiting infections, tumors, and
"obscure" lesions. "We've
been going to photos of corals from as far back as the
1930s," he says, and find
no sign of many of these diseases.
Over the past 15 years, for instance, "there has
been a very striking increase in
the frequency and extent of harmful algal blooms,"
notes JoAnn M. Burkholder,
an aquatic botanist at North Carolina State University in
Raleigh. HEED's data
now link many of these blooms of poison-producing algae
to pollution (SN:
9/27/97, p. 202) and a widespread warming of coastal and
shallow waters.
Moreover, Burkholder observes, HEED's data suggest that
the ecological
impacts of these blooms are more pervasive than most
biologists had realized.
Until recently, scientists typically investigated marine
disease outbreaks as
isolated incidents. The idea that some might be linked
struck Epstein when he
began ruminating about a host of events in 1987.
Sharks

Thirty-four additional species will be monitored for data
collection only; these are generally small, deep water sharks caught in
swordfish and tuna long line fishing.
22. Impact and Effect: MEDium and PRODuct The shark is the apex predator
of the world's oceans. If the shark
population is decimated the marine food chain will have to adjust: sting rays
and octopi will grow in numbers and their prey will decrease in number (as
noted, octopi feed on lobster). 23.
Urgency and Lifetime: MEDium and 20-60 years No one knows for sure the numbers of sharks in the world's
oceans. Sampling indicates the following species may already be near
extinction: mako, elephant fish, lemon, hammerhead, great white. Shark
lifetimes depend on the species. For example, the life spans of the species
deemed by the NMFS as the 2 most important species differ by 40 years; the
estimated life span of the blacktip shark is 21 years while that of the sandbar
is 60 years.

Red tide spreading along Texas

September 25, 2000
Web posted at: 1:36 PM EDT (1736 GMT)
CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas (AP) -- A bloom of toxic red tide
algae is spreading along the Texas Gulf Coast, shutting down some oyster
fishing and killing millions of fish whose rotting remains are fouling beaches.
State environmental officials say it's the largest concentration
of red tide since 1986, when more than 22 million fish died in four months.
-
High concentrations of the algae called red tide produce
a toxin that kills fish by affecting the central nervous system.
For humans eating contaminated fish or shellfish, the
toxin can cause numbness, dizziness, nausea, fever and muscle paralysis. The
most serious cases can result in respiratory arrest and death. In addition,
people who swim in affected bodies of water can suffer breathing and eye
irritation.

(AP) -- Huge reservoirs of methane trapped beneath the
ocean floor rapidly escaped during prehistoric global warming and depleted much
of the sea's oxygen, according to new research into why many forms of life
suddenly vanished 183 million years ago.
The findings, reported in Thursday's issue of the journal
Nature, shed new light not only on the disappearance of as many as 80 percent
of some deep-sea species but also a process suspected in other prehistoric mass

U.S. and Japan Duel over Lethal
Whale Research

NEW YORK, New York, September 6, 2000 (ENS) - U.S.
Commerce Secretary Norman Mineta has given unofficial notice to Japan that he
is considering economic sanctions against Japan to exert pressure for a halt to
Japan's lethal whale research program.
Beginning with the killing of about 300 minke whales in
1987, one year after the International Whaling Commission imposed a ban on
commercial whale hunting, the Japanese research program now claims 440 minke
whales annually in the Antarctic. In 1994, Japan expanded its lethal research
to the North Pacific with the additional killing of 100 minke whales.
This year, Japan announced plans to kill an additional 10
sperm and 50 Bryde's whales.
Legalized
Drugs

OF THE METHAMPHETAMINE ELIMINATION ACT OF 1997
Legalized Drugs:
--- It seems as if we have had legalized drugs (in the form
of Ritalin) since at least 1990, and this is what the result is.
With alcohol there are smugglers but alcohol has
standards for the smugglers to check and competition from good distributors to
deal with. From what we have seen of
the legal distributors of these drugs – they do not have the standards that our
liquor companies have now, if marijuana and many other drugs were legalized
what standards would they have with that kind of competition, or are they
making a market for their drugs – or for bio-chips?----- Piper Creations 22Sept2000

METHAMPHETAMINE ELIMINATION ACT OF 1997 –
HON.
JERRY LEWIS --
Sonny Bono (one of the co-sponsers)
(Extension of Remarks - March 20, 1997)
http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/D?r105:2:./temp/~r1056SPRf5::
Methamphetamine is fast becoming the crack epidemic of
the 1990's. Meth production and use is a nationwide problem, cutting across all
income and racial divisions; the impact, however, is disproportionally felt in
California. The Drug Enforcement Agency [DEA] has identified California as a
`source country' of methamphetamine with literally hundreds of clandestine
laboratories, or `clan labs,' located throughout the State.
Clan labs have proliferated at such a pace that California
officials now consider them major threats to the public, law enforcement and
public communities, even the environment. In just 1996, the Bureau of Narcotics
Enforcement [BNE] raided 835 clan labs in California, up from 465 in 1995. Just
think of that 835 labs seized in California in 1 year--almost one every 10
hours. Clearly, California is on the front line in the war on methamphetamine.
As a result, California is in desperate need to help to
fight this wicked drug. The Methamphetamine Elimination Act would provide $18
million to the Bureau of Narcotics Enforcement to fight meth through a 5-point
strategy. Specifically, funds from this
legislation will be used to hire, train, and equip 126 sworn and nonsworn law
enforcement staff to do the following:

Editorial Tuesday
July 18, 2000 © 2000 St. Louis
Post-Dispatch
The most recent, and revolting, development was a report
last week that meat from diseased animal carcasses would, under the new rules,
be classified as safe. Meat from animals with cancer, open sores and diseases
caused by intestinal parasites pose no health threat to humans, according to
the new guidelines.

by Lance Gay
The federal agency overseeing food inspection is imposing
new rules that reclassify animal carcasses with cancers, tumors and open sores
as safe for human consumption.
Federal meat inspectors and consumer groups are
protesting the move to classify tumors and open sores as aesthetic problems,

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Arkansas' top elected officials are
pleading for
President Clinton to pardon a longtime friend and supporter sentenced
to a year in prison
for trying to illegally influence Clinton's former agriculture secretary.
Tyson Foods
executive Archie Schaffer III was sentenced Monday by a
federal judge who
believes Schaffer is innocent and has twice tried to acquit him, only to be reversed by an appeals
panel. Soon afterward, both Republicans
and Democrats in Clinton's home state called for a pardon.
Schaffer, the main spokesman for the Arkansas-based
poultry producer, was
convicted under a 1907 law of trying to influence agricultural policy by arranging for
then-Secretary Mike Espy to attend a Tyson birthday party in Arkansas in 1993.

The sentencing arose from independent counsel Donald

investigation of President Bill Clinton's first agriculture secretary,
Mike Espy. Jurors
acquitted Espy of any wrongdoing in December 1998. Schaffer was convicted of giving Espy $2,500
worth of air travel so Espy
could go to a 1993 Tyson party. Tyson sought to affect federal meat inspection laws.

World Trade is of major interest to developing countries,
but some things do keep their names because they are made certain ways, this
has at least allowed their to be some kind of standard while world wide trade
unfolds. I personally hope that some
standards stay in place. Why? Have you ever felt Egyptian cotton? The problem for (expressly) for developing
countries is that they will saturate the market with one item that they can get
a high price for and then someone else is able to make the same item (usually
with preservatives – in the case of some foods) and saturate the market to the
point that the developing country may not have a market anymore.

Currently globalization is occurring under one version of
rules put forth by a global commerce agency called the World Trade Organization
(WTO). This version of the rules is not "free trade." In fact the
famous philosophers of free trade -- like Adam Smith and David Ricard -- must
be spinning in their graves to see to what global commerce terms their term "free trade" has been applied. For
instance, the WTO has many restrictions on trade - such as providing a monopoly
TRADE RESTRICTION on production and sale of medicine for 30 YEARS!!! to the pharmaceutical
corporation that has a patent on a drug.
And, some of what is called a "trade restriction" by WTO and
is targeted for elimination is actually our domestic food safety and

Ralph Nader: June 19, 1996
http://www.nader.org/opinions/oe6.19.96.html
South Africans should be aware that a key provision of
the nation's new constitution risks entrenching a new form of power abuse in
the country -- autocratic rule by big corporations.
South Africa's new Constitution establishes that
"juristic persons are entitled to the rights in the Bill of Rights to the
extent required by the nature of the rights and of the juristic persons."
This provision affords fundamental constitutional protections -- freedom of
expression, political rights and guarantees of privacy -- not just to people, including
those within corporations, but to the artificial entity of the corporation
itself.
The American experience of providing corporations with
similar rights that people have should ring alarm bells for South Africans
concerned about preserving their newly won freedoms. While the U.S.
constitution does not explicitly afford corporations the rights guaranteed in
our Bill of Rights, court decisions have extended almost all those rights to
corporate entities, with disturbing results.
The American experience makes clear that the
constitutional language covering "juristic persons" creates direct
conflicts with several of the South African Constitutional Principles of 1993,
including the assurance that real persons will have political rights, associational
rights and rights to life, security of person, the environment and information.

Introduction
The World Trade Organization (WTO) has one over-arching
goal—removing barriers to trade. Despite having no environmental or public
health expertise or mandate, the WTO has reached out to
establish rules and issue decisions declaring environmental and health measures
to be
unfair trade barriers. More and more, the WTO is emerging
as the entity with the greatest power to determine whether we can maintain
effective
standards that promote food safety and protect public
health and the environment.
In ferreting out what it considers unjustifiable
standards, the WTO does not develop solutions to health and environmental
problems. Nor does
it defer to governments or international institutions
that are developing or endorsing strategies for reducing the proliferation of
harmful
chemicals.
Nonetheless, the WTO second guesses the solutions
governments have adopted for regulating toxins and declares them impermissible
if, in the
view of three trade bureaucrats operating in secret, they
are not sufficiently justified or they interfere too much with international
trade. And
when the WTO passes judgment, the stakes are high. If the
country that loses in the WTO does not change the offending law, the WTO
authorizes imposition of trade sanctions until the law is
changed. This has proven to be a potent device for weakening or eliminating the
underlying law.

The dangerous consequences of factory farming are being
felt all across the country
BY ANDREW NIKIFORUK
Long after the dead have been buried in Walkerton, Ont.,
rural Canadians who rely on groundwater
will continue to feel and smell the impact of a largely unreported revolution: the growth of factory farms. This
new industry, or what governments call
"intensive livestock operations," has unsettled farm communities from New Brunswick to
Alberta. Unlike the family enterprises
of old, which proudly cared for 20 pigs or 60 cattle, these new facilities operate on an entirely different
and largely unregulated scale.
In addition, the world's key pork producers, Taiwan and
Holland,
recently pushed
production into the danger zone, causing severe water
pollution and
animal disease outbreaks. But their environmental disasters have had an effect here: hog barns managed
by Europeans or funded by Asian
investors are popping up all over the country.

A hermaphrodite beluga whale (Delphinapterus leucas) was found in the
St. Lawrence Estuary, Quebec, Canada. This animal had two testicles, two
separate ovaries, and the complete ducts of each sex; cervix, vagina and vulva
were absent. Mature spermatozoa were found in the lumen of seminiferous tubules
in the testicles, and numerous involuted corpora lutea were recognized in the
ovaries. This represents the first case of true hermaphroditism in a cetacean,
and is the fourth hermaphrodite mammal with two testicles and two separate
ovaries.

Endangered Giant Clams Focus of
Cement Plant Battle
http://ens.lycos.com/ens/sep2000/2000L-09-12-03.html
By Michael Bengwayan
AGNO, Pangasinan, Philippines, September 12, 2000 (ENS) -
They are already endangered, and now 29 of the largest clams in the world may
die because of a two-year old conflict between a multi-million dollar cement
plant and community residents in the coastal town of Agno on the island of
Luzon.
The cement plant is being established in the Abagatanen
Cove where 35 of the clams were placed in 1998 by the Agno fishermen with the
help of the Concerned Divers of the Philippines for the purpose of expanding
clam production and management. Six of the original 35 died after their meat
were forcibly extracted.
Goldsun Corporation was able to acquire an Environmental
Compliance Certificate (ECC) from Department of Environment and Natural
Resources (DENR) Secretary Antonio Cerilles. After the certificate was issued
DENR's environmental management bureau ordered the removal of the clams.
Each of the remaining 29 Tridacna gigas clams measures
1.5 meters (nearly five feet) in length and weigh over 250 kilograms (550
pounds). If protected, they can multiply so quickly there will be thousands in
a few years, say their defenders.

"The Justice Department of the Clinton
administration - and under Vice President Gore - has filed over 20 percent
fewer lawsuits in the area of environmental crime prosecution than [were filed
in] the Reagan/Bush years," Nader said.
According to Nader, Gore has no right to cast himself as
the environmental candidate in the presidential race.
"Basically, he has betrayed most of the promises he
outlined in his book, "Earth in the Balance," in 1992," Nader
said.
Specifically, Nader said that Gore has given the
automobile industry a "free ride" by not proposing stringent fuel
efficiency standards.
Gore has also been very weak in calling for stricter
regulations on the use of pesticides and herbicides, and he was a staunch
supporter of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) even though
environmental groups spoke out against it, Nader noted.
Nor has Gore pursued his dream of transforming the United
States into a solar based economy, Nader said.

WASHINGTON, DC, September 7, 2000 (ENS) - The 24 billion
pounds of developmental and neurological toxins released into the environment
of the United States each year are linked to millions of cases of developmental
disabilities in children, charges a new report released today.
The report ranks toxic emissions state by state. Data
reported by industries shows that Louisiana and Texas emit the most
developmental and neurological toxins to air and water. Tennessee, Ohio,
Illinois, Georgia, Virginia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Florida are also major
emitters.

AUSTIN, Texas, September 13, 2000 (ENS) - A Texas judge
has rejected a motion to dismiss Republican presidential nominee Governor
George W. Bush from a civil rights lawsuit brought by environmental groups and
individual protesters.
The suit was filed against the Texas governor by citizens
who were arrested and jailed last spring for protesting Bush's environmental
policies on the public sidewalk in front of the Texas Governor's Mansion.

This book follows the Bush family connections from 1914 to
the present. From the time of George's grandfather, Samuel P. Bush, the Bush
family has attempted to stay involved in politics. The book seems to show that
since the family could not rate by having royal blood lines (that rate)or by
having a high degree of education, that they would try to control by a
philosophy of "The one with the most money makes the rules." They
believe in "racial cleansing" and have cultivated people like Adolph
Hitler.
Also I understand that Bush and Forbes are both alumni of Yale's sorority
"Skull and Bones". So, could they have the same agenda?

Canola is a name that recently appeared in the

rape seed plant. Rape (Brassica napus),
a member of the mustard family, is listed in the Encyclopedia Britannica as a
poisonous
plant with toxic effects which include pulmonary
emphysema, respiratory distress, anemia, constipation, irritability and
blindness in cattle.

Canola and the myelin sheath
Some speculate on the actual or potential effects of ELF and
RF/MW radiation such as microwaves, wireless cell phones and computers. There
seems to be studies that show these things to be detrimental to the
neurological system causing accelerated aging (enhanced cell death and cancer),
moods, depression, suicide, anger, rage and violence. I do not have an opinion
on microwaves but these studies seem to show something could be happening to
people that have enough money, need, and / or the knowledge to use cell phones.
It would seem that these people could also be knowledgeable enough to be health
conscious, if they are health conscious and use Canola Oil which is a known to
cause neurological problems - it strips the myelin sheath off of the (neuron's)
axon. Brain cells are known as axons, and stripping the myelin sheath off of
them causes them to short circuit as well as the potential of other problems.
Other items that can cause problems or cancer are MSG, Bovine Growth Hormone,
food colorings and sugar. Top

A fungus from the genus Aspergillus is the probable agent

corals (Gorgonia ventalina) over the past 15 years1,2. Here we show that four
strains of the fungus involved in these infections are members of the species
Aspergillus sydowii, a common saprobe (an organism that lives on decaying
matter) that is found in both terrestrial and marine environments. Isolates of
A. sydowii taken from diseased sea fans caused new infections of sea fans in
inoculation experiments, whereas isolates taken from elsewhere did not.

transplantation, burns, treatment for cancers and when patients are taking
steroid drugs. It also
causes a severe allergy in asthmatic and cystic fibrosis
patients. It is the commonest mould infection worldwide, affecting children and

in Europe. Once in the lungs, Aspergillus infection is
difficult to diagnose and if untreated is always fatal.

Stachybotrys chartarum (atra): A
New Emerging Fungal Threat and Methods of Dealing
with
Contamination
http://envirocenter.com/IAS/TStac.htm
INTRODUCTION
Stachybotrys chartarum (atra) is a saprophytic
greenish-black fungus found worldwide that colonizes particularly well in
high-cellulose material, such as straw, hay, paper and
cellulose-containing building material. Stachybotrys chartarum grows and
sporulates in the temperature range of 2-40°C. The
minimum water activity for germination is reported to range from 0.85 to
0.95, and for growth and sporulation from 0.91 to 0.96,
depending on temperature and medium. Stachybotrys chartarum (atra)
is capable of producing several toxins including
macrocyclic trichothecenes (satratoxins H, G, F, roridin E, verrucarin J, and
Trichoverrols A and B). However, many researchers still
know little about the temperature and moisture conditions under
which these toxins are produced. It has been postulated
that moist high-cellulose and low-nitrogen materials at a temperature
range of 0-40°C
can provide sufficient condition for production of
Stachybotryotoxins.

Thrush is caused by a yeast fungus, usually Candida
albicans. There are ten forms of Candida that can affect humans. Fungi are
deceptively simple, single-cell microbes. They are opportunistic, taking every
available opportunity to colonize, and tenacious in their adaptability.
-- What I am investigating is
the fact that antibiotics, in killing the beneficial bacteria protecting us
from fungus leave “some” of us open to Candida, to me it makes sense that
antibacterial soaps leave our houses open to fungal problems too. --

Red tide spreading along Texas
Gulf Coast

CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas (AP) -- A bloom of toxic red tide
algae is spreading along the Texas Gulf Coast, shutting down some oyster
fishing and killing millions of fish whose rotting remains are fouling beaches.
State environmental officials say it's the largest
concentration of red tide since 1986, when more than 22 million fish died in
four months.
-
High concentrations of the algae called red tide produce
a toxin that kills fish by affecting the central nervous system.
For humans eating contaminated fish or shellfish, the
toxin can cause numbness, dizziness, nausea, fever and muscle paralysis. The
most serious cases can result in respiratory arrest and death. In addition,
people who swim in affected bodies of water can suffer breathing and eye irritation.

Aphid-trapping potato plants: a scientific project of Dr
R W Gibson
Solanum berthaultii, an insect-resistant wild potato from
Bolivia, has abundant sticky-tipped hairs on the foliage to which small insects
and mites get stuck. In contrast, the foliage of cultivated potatoes does not
obstruct movement of potential pests. Stereoscan pictures
show the Solanum berthaultii hairs and a trapped aphid in detail. Shows results
of preliminary plant breeding trials where quite good tuber yield is
combined with sticky-tipped hairs on the foliage to which
aphid pests adhere and die.

US Navy Threatens Whales to Safeguard Foreign Interventions --
International Marine Mammal
Project -- by Chris Clarke
From: Earth Island Journal – Summer 2000 -- Vol. 15, No.2
The project, called the Surveillance Towed Array Sonar
System Low Frequency Active acoustic sonar system (SURTASS LFA), is designed to
take advantage of the special acoustic properties of high-decibel, low
frequency sound in seawater to detect what the Navy claims are increasingly
quiet foreign submarines.
In Exposure Guidelines for Navy Divers Exposed to
Low-Frequency Active Sonar, a 1996 report by F. Michael Pestorius of the
University of Texas at Austin and Capt. M.D. Curley of the Naval Submarine
Medical Research Laboratory in Groton, Connecticut, the authors describe a
diver who was exposed to an underwater low-frequency sound of 160 dB. After
twelve minutes, the diver experienced "dizziness, somnolence, irritability
to concentrate and residual tingling in arms. He received medical attention on
the spot and recovered, only to suffer a relapse an hour after the event and
another while driving home from and chronic depression.
(this has cause
beaching of marine mammals with an added potential of hurting salmon, other
fish and birds.)

HARRP: Scientific Research or
Environmental Crisis
As we look up into our sky we see nothing but clouds
against a background of blue. We are given few clues as to the existence of
much less how our atmosphere is structured. Haze on the horizon lets us see
that something is there while the wind blowing across our face let's us feel
the air. Donnella Meadows in "What is Biodiversity and why Should we Care
About it?" has shown that "Most of us have grasped the idea that
theres a hole in the sky over the South Pole…". As we grasped the idea of
the hole in the ozone layer we will have to grasp the idea that the upper
portion of our atmosphere is electrically charged. This area of our atmosphere
called the ionosphere is the result of the interaction
between our sun and this planet we call Earth.

http://www.ratical.org/ratville/terminatorTech.html
These are from a data base that I am doing for my web site. I
have seen this post shot down as a hoax, so I offer this
links in rebuttal of some that would say Aspartame is not
hazardous and support of this post. Nancy Markel was NOT
the original author, but overall the post is on track. Another point
is that Aspartame is suppose to Mimic MS ect., I
personally am not interested in something that even Mimics
diseases such as this post describes! Please remember that
much of the research that is out there (and that some sites
cite - FDA included) saying that Aspartame is NOT
hazardous comes from the very company that makes Aspartame. From
these links you wonder how anyone is capable of
having nutritious food, and think of the developing bodies and
brains of children. These will allow you to research on
your own.

MSG this section has links and a short summary For those of you
that might consider this weighty,
I am back to doing my web page and will add it to my site and then
(most times just) post the URL
in the future. I need to find where the FDA has approved the
spraying of MSG on crops, someone
sent that to me months ago and I have upgraded since that
time. Knowing this and putting
together with the following that I am compiling you will see more
problems, with children as well.
SPECULATION: Aspartame was approved during the Regan
administration, more things seem to
have been added during the Bush administration, and Clinton has
allowed even more. Instead of
hearing about MSG like we used to do - it and more things like
Canola are being approved every
day. Let me add this for educators - would be hard to educate a
child even with Ritalin or some
other help is they are getting this in their food - expressly the
school lunches, and when I can find
Canola oil as a ingredient in a major brand of frozen crinkle cut
potatoes, Yes I do believe it and
MSG will be in school lunches. Will add this to my site and redo
my site soon. They think that they
can just watch what they eat and that this might blow over. That
is not the case, and I am not going
into dramatics. This is not complete, I have to take time to learn
other things too - for those of you
that are skeptical, please check these out. Will be following
through by checking out how these
things (proteins expressly) work through Mitochondria
and Lysosomes.
=========Summary of some articles ==========
(1) MSG and Aspartame
Summary done on http://www.annapolis.net/members/holland/food.txt
Monosodium Glutamate (MSG) derived from Glutamic acid, which is
an excitotoxic amino acid
that has been known to excite, brain cells sometimes to the
point of killing them. MSG is a
neurotropic drug (neurotropic means that it effects the nervous
system) and when it effects a
person the effects may not show up for up to 48 hours. Glutamic
acid (an amino acid), and one of
its salts is glutamate. Glutamate is one of the substances that
make up protein. Different proteins
are made up of different amino acids. MSG is manufactured
through a process of protein
hydrolysis. When glutamate is separated from protein and the
product has 99% free glutamate then
it is called "monosodium glutamate." When Protein
Hydrolysate has less than 99% free glutamate,
usually within the range of 8 to 40 per cent, then the product
might have one of these names -
"sodium caseinate," "calcium caseinate,"
"autolyzed yeast," "textured protein," "yeast
food,"
"hydrolyzed vegetable protein," and "hydrolyzed
protein." Hydrolyzed Protein (itself) may be in
products under names like "flavoring" or "natural
flavoring." If you are concerned about MSG
sensitivity, or would like to help the Truth in Labeling

Glutamate a free amino acid or as a
constituent in proteins. Aspartame - "Although most of the
neurologic concerns associated with
aspartame have centered on phenylalanine, one of the amino acids
that comprise the dipeptide, it
should be noted that aspartate, the other amino acid in the
dipeptide, and glutamate bind to many
of the same receptor sites in vivo, are subject to many of the
same transport mechanisms, and
undergo interconversion via aspartate aminotransferase."
"It is also interesting to note that the
incidence of febril seizures in young children is almost five
times higher in Japan, where MSG is
more commonly used as an additive, than it is in the United
States." This report has a long list of

Chlorinated tap water linked to
birth defects
By Jacqui Thornton Health
Correspondent and Martyn Halle
Electronic Telegraph, ISSUE 1731
Sunday 20 February 2000
"A Norwegian study of 141,000 births over three years
found a 14 per cent increased risk of birth defects in areas
with chlorinated water. Scientists have already found an
association between chlorine and an increased risk of bowel,
kidney and bladder cancer, but it is the first time that a link
has been found with higher levels of spina bifida." ...
"Chlorine is in the same chemical group as fluoride,
which has been linked with cancer and osteoporosis. There is also
a connection between fluoride and increased blood pressure and
an increase in problems with the thyroid gland.
John Fawell, a leading specialist on water quality, and an
independent industry consultant, said the British
Government and water companies were taking the danger of birth
defects seriously. He said: "The people who have
done this work in Norway and the United States are reputable
researchers and the Government and water companies
have commissioned their own research from London
University."

observation that there is not general recognition of the safety of genetically

those members of the scientific
community qualified to make such a judgment. In fact, it has been my personal
experience
over numerous years that many of
those experts who publicly subscribe to the position that these foods are as
safe as their
natural counterparts privately
admit they have serious doubts. For instance, when I attended a conference on
biotechnology in Annapolis,
Maryland in 1988, at which many officials from federal regulatory agencies
(including the FDA)
were present, I was shocked to
learn the extent of uncertainty. In informal discussions at meals and on walks,
government

“Spontaneous
generation enjoyed popular support for another 200 years, bolstered by
philosophical movements predicated on the teachings of Immanuel Kant and
others. Kant believed that reason was superior to observation, where the truth
could be reasoned to, while observation only provided minimal understanding of
nature.
As
the teachings of Kant fell from favor and the time of Darwin approached, the
idea of
spontaneous generation began to
fall from popular favor. The religious institutions of the mid 1800’s were
bothered by one of the consequences
of spontaneous generation. Perhaps Redi put it best when he said "I
shall express my belief that the
Earth, after having brought forth the first plants and animals at the
beginning by order of the Supreme
and Omnipotent Creator, has never produced any kinds of plants or
animals, either perfect or
imperfect; and everything which we know in past or present times that she has
produced, came solely from the true
seeds of the plants and animals themselves, which thus, through means
of their own, preserve their
species." Interpretations of spontaneous generation indicated that life
could
appear without the hand of God,
which prompted many scientists to study the doctrine.
Enter
French scientist Louis Pasteur, the man credited by modern texts as ending the
debate and
refuting the doctrine of
spontaneous generation. By 1862 when he wrote his first memoirs concerning
spontaneous generation, Pasteur was
already a popular and prominent scientist due to his discoveries of
bacterial fermentation and the
process we now know as pasteurization.”

& irradiation.com [Online] Retrieved October 14, 2000
http://www.irradiation.com/food.htm
Q. If food is not made radioactive,
then why is it not safe?
A. When food is irradiated the
radiation breaks up the molecular structure of the food and creates a whole
new set of chemicals known as "unique radiolytic
products" (URPs). These URPs
include benzene,
formaldehyde and a host of known mutagens and carcinogens. Irradiation
kills vitamins, friendly bacteria
and enzymes, effectively rendering
the food "dead" and therefore useless to your body. In addition, some
of the friendly bacteria that is
killed produces odors indicating
spoilage and some friendly bacteria
naturally control the growth of
harmful bacteria.
Q. Is there a way to test to see if
food has been irradiated?
A. Yes. Because the damage done to the food is detectable. link to
testing company
Q. Does irradiation kill all of the
deadly bacteria?
Usually not. It can leave still dangerous bacteria on the
food, allowing people to still become
sick. In
addition, studies have shown that irradiating microorganisms like E.
coli and salmonella may give rise to
even more dangerous, radiation-resistant strains of
bacteria. Radiation-resistant strains
of bacteria have
been developed under laboratory
conditions and scientists found that one particular bacteria can survive a
radiation dose five times what the
FDA will allow for beef. Scientists
exposed this bacteria to 10 and 15
kilograys of radiation for several
hours, enough radiation to kill a
person several thousand times over; the
bacteria survived.
Q. Have there been studies of the
health consequences of food irradiation?
A. Yes, hundreds. However the FDA
only sites 5 of those studies in their push to irradiate, and some of
those studies have since been
proven flawed. Short term studies
were done on children in India, and
blood tests showed chromosomal
damage to the children after 6 weeks.
Short term tests were done on dogs
using irradiated beef; the dogs ended up with enlarged spleens and
swollen lymph nodes. Other studies,
including those done under contract
for the U.S. Government indicate the
possibility of immunotoxicity,
kidney disease, cardiac thrombus, testicular damage and fibroplasia.
Q. Why does the FDA allow
irradiation?
***
This is a very complicated issue.
In the beginning, food irradiation was part of the "ATOMS FOR PEACE"
program which looked for ways to get rid of nuclear waste. The main push was
made by the International Atomic Energy Agency and the Atomic Energy
Commission. In addition, the Dept. of Energy (DOE) which wants to get rid of
the radioactive waste Cesium 137, paid
companies to take this waste. Those companies then lobbied congress so they
could irradiate food. Cobalt 60 is currently the radioactive source for food
irradiation, but the DOE hopes that
with the proposed expansion of food irradiation, the Cobalt 60, which is
in limited supply will run out, and
Cesium 137 will again be used. Next you
have some of the large meat processors (three corporations control 80% of the
market) which instead of cleaning up their production system, would rather
irradiate, as it is cheaper. The
irradiation companies lobby the processors, the processors lobby congress and
the FDA (which has on its board former and future executive employees of the
food processing and nuclear companies).
The FDA then also lobbies congress. In
addition, with all of the news about E. coli and salmonella, our uninformed
congressmen think they are
"protecting" the food supply. In addition, the
multi-national food processing companies stand to make billions by extending
the shelf life of some foods.
The food safety issue is basically
a guise. The real issues are the
multi-national corporations making
billion$ more by extending shelf
life of food, the million$ the
processors would save by not having to
"clean up their
acts", and our government wanting
to "dump" radioactive waste.

"John Smith was now about to plunge into the nightmare world of eastern
Europe: where Catholics fought
Protestants, or Turks, and Protestants fought Turks, or Catholics, or renegade
mercenaries, or all three: where Germans fought Hungarians or Turks or Both:
where Hungarians were sometimes both Austrian allies and Turkish vassals."
"This was a
world where the Austrian emperor of the Holy Roman Empire, Rudolph II, relieved
his chronic insanity with periodic fits of uncontrollable rage; where Sigismund
Bathory, Prince of Transylvania, of a family long-tainted with madness,
abdicated and reclaimed his throne no fewer than three times' where his cousin
Elizabeth, with the tran-sylvanian penchant so reminiscent of Count Dracula,
indulged in beauty baths that
ultimately took the blood, and lives, of 650 young
women."
"It was a
place where incessant warfare and banditry brought desolation, famine, familial
cannibalism, and other unspeakable horrors; where lucky prisoners wee enslaved,
the less lucky butchered, and the luckless skinned alive."

medicine paid attention again until
a fledgling neurobiologist began touting its clinical value in 1965. "The
idea that the gut can be operating

.
Pederasts, encouraged by the homosexual victory and armed
with Kinsey’s reports legitimizing child-sex and adult-child sex, are engaged
in a protracted battle to lower the age-of- consent laws. "Sex before
eight or it’s too late," is the motto of the René Guyon Society. The
British Pedophile Information Exchange (P.I.E.) advocates that it be reduced to
age four.35 Dr. Sigmund Freud considered homosexuality "an arrest of
sexual development" and "intergenerational sex," or pedophilia,
as "cowardly" and a "substitute" sexual practice for
"impotent" people. However, "a nationally recognized expert on
sex offenders. . . stated that pedophilia. . . may be a sexual orientation
rather than a sexual deviation. [This] raised the question as to whether
pedophiles may have rights."36 Spokesmen for the North American Man-Boy
Love Association (NAMBLA) have quoted Kinsey extensively in arguing for the
right to have sex with underage boys. If pedophilia is no longer classified as
a mental disorder and the
age-of-consent laws are lowered, how will we protect our children? Parental authority is now being challenged
by feminists and pedophiles clamoring for "children’s rights": the
right to privacy, the right to association, the right to family planning
services. . . What about the child’s right to grow up without being exploited?
How can a four- year-old child possibly enter into a consensual relationship with an adult or
even another child? As a society, we have already determined that children are
not ready to be drafted, allowed to smoke, drink or even to run for President
of the United States. Sex is no different.

Colburn, Alan. “Spontaneous Generation.”
[Online] Retrieved December 4, 2000

“Spontaneous generation enjoyed popular support for another
200 years, bolstered by philosophical movements predicated on the teachings of
Immanuel Kant and others. Kant believed that reason was superior to
observation, where the truth could be reasoned to, while observation only
provided minimal understanding of nature.
As the
teachings of Kant fell from favor and the time of Darwin approached, the idea
of spontaneous generation began to fall from popular favor. The religious
institutions of the mid 1800’s were bothered by one of the consequences of
spontaneous generation. Perhaps Redi put it best when he said "I shall
express my belief that the Earth, after having brought forth the first plants
and animals at the beginning by order of the Supreme and Omnipotent Creator,
has never produced any kinds of plants or animals, either perfect or imperfect;
and everything which we know in past or present times that she has produced,
came solely from the true seeds of the plants and animals themselves, which
thus, through means of their own, preserve their species." Interpretations
of spontaneous generation indicated that life could appear without the hand of
God, which prompted many scientists to study the doctrine.
Enter
French scientist Louis Pasteur, the man credited by modern texts as ending the
debate and refuting the doctrine of spontaneous generation. By 1862 when he
wrote his first memoirs concerning spontaneous generation, Pasteur was already
a popular and prominent scientist due to his discoveries of bacterial
fermentation and the process we now know as pasteurization.”
