Fukushima Is Continually Blasting All Of Us With High Levels Of Cesium, Strontium And Plutonium And Will Slowly Kill Millions For Years To Come
Fukushima Is Continually Blasting All Of Us With High Levels Of Cesium, Strontium And Plutonium And Will Slowly Kill Millions For Years To Come
Fukushima is now far and away the worst nuclear disaster in all of human history. Chernobyl was a Sunday picnic compared to Fukushima and the amount of cesium-137 released at Fukushima this year so far is equivalent to 168 Hiroshima bombs. The crisis at Fukushima is far, far worse than you have been told. We are talking about multiple self-sustaining nuclear meltdowns that will not be fully contained for years. In an attempt to keep people calm, authorities in Japan (and around the rest of the world as well) have lied and lied and lied. Over the months that have passed since the disaster began, small bits of the truth have slowly started to come out. Authorities are finally admitting that the area immediately surrounding Fukushima will be uninhabitable indefinitely, and they are finally admitting that the amount of radioactive material that has been released is far higher than initially reported. It is going to take the Japanese years to fully contain this problem. Meanwhile, Fukushima will continue to blast all of us with high levels of cesium, strontium and plutonium and will slowly kill millions of people around the globe for years to come.
These days, the mainstream media does not talk about Fukushima much. The reality is that there have been a whole lot of other disasters for them to talk about.
But just because Fukushima is a nightmare that is playing out in very slow motion does not mean that it does not deserve our full attention.
To get an idea of just how nightmarish Fukushima has turned out to be, just consider the words of nuclear expert Steven C. Jones....

Bloomberg - looters caught during or in the wake of the storm will be placed in internment camps
A resident walks through floodwater on Coney Island after Hurricane Irene hit, in New York, August 28, 2011.
In New York City, Mayor Bloomberg chose not to evacuate the criminals in Rikers Island, according to Mother Jones. The mayor has also warned that any looters caught during or in the wake of the storm will be placed in internment camps. This raises questions about the role of law enforcement and order during a natural disaster. It also raises questions about the psychology of looting and rioting which occur after most natural disasters.

New power wave heads out to sea - environment - 26 August 2011 - New Scientist
New power wave heads out to sea - environment - 26 August 2011 - New Scientist
An explosion of designs for harvesting wave energy could make the process competitive at last – and they're heading out to the ocean for testing
WRINGING electricity from the sea is no small task. But as firms start to test their wave-energy harvesters in the open ocean that could be about to change.
Heaving water holds 40 times more energy than air moving at the same speed, and sea states change more slowly than breezes, making it easier for utilities to predict the availability of energy. Yet the tools needed to make use of the sea's energy are gargantuan.
Pelamis Wave Power's wave energy device, P2, is a case in point. Currently stored at the Leith Docks in Edinburgh, UK, it uses spools of steel cable several times human height, and floats that are as big as a car. But this is just window dressing for the machine itself: a red rig that looks like a 180-metre-long subway train.

VIDEO: Chris Geo arrested by Homeland Security For Standing On His 4th Amendment Right
VIDEO: Chris Geo arrested by Homeland Security For Standing On His 4th Amendment Right
Today I was arrested by DHS for “failing to comply with a federal officer” when he asked for my identification during an illegal search and seizure. Homeland security has a manual for dealing with people filming federal buildings. The manual clearly states “IT IS NOT ILLEGAL TO FILM THE EXTERIOR OF A FEDERAL BUILDING” and “CONTACT IS VOLUNTARY AND NOT A DETENTION”. Not to mention that there is no federal, state or local law requiring you to “show your papers” which is a fundamental constitutional right.
Download the full PDF Homeland Security Memo Here
I do not believe the arresting officer was acting nefariously but rather this was a result of being uneducated in the law or simply “hearing” that some kind of law exists where a person is prohibited from filming a federal building or must show ID on demand. The officer handling the arrest treated me with the same respect I showed him and may even be a future listener. This is an example of why we must 1. Understand our rights and the law 2. Never fear, for fear is the mind killer 3. Stay completely respectful and polite at all times and 4. Approach these people with love, kindness, understanding and respect.

FDA draft guidance to cripple natural products sector and health freedom, decimate supplement innovation
FDA draft guidance to cripple natural products sector and health freedom, decimate supplement innovation
(NaturalNews) The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is on a mission to seize control of the dietary supplement industry, and cripple it from being able to freely innovate and market potent, effective health products to consumers.
In fact, as we reported a few weeks ago, the agency's draft guidance proposals threaten to actually ban many supplements that were introduced after the passage of the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994 (DSHEA), but that are safely and effectively used by millions of Americans today -- and YOUR help is required to stop this affront to health freedom (http://www.naturalnews.com/032924_d...).
DSHEA is perhaps the single most important piece of legislation that continues to defend Americans' freedom to innovate, manufacture, sell, and buy dietary supplements -- and it is one that millions of Americans worked very hard to get passed back in 1994. The passage of DSHEA not only opened up the door for new supplements to be developed, but it also ushered in a new era of health freedom based on innovation in nutrition rather than just in synthetic drugs.
However, the final guidance for DSHEA's "New Dietary Ingredients" (NDI), which is meant to clarify how supplement manufacturers are to notify the FDA about ingredients they use, was never properly established at the time it was passed.
And while the FDA is finally coming to task with establishing this guidance, the agency's current proposals will do more to systematically dismantle DSHEA and health freedom than they will to actually clarify them, which is what they are supposed to do.
FDA draft guidance will establish tight regulatory noose around necks of supplement manufacturers
When DSHEA was passed by Congress, it was understood that the FDA would eventually clarify how supplement manufacturers were to notify the agency about the use of "new dietary ingredients." The provisions in DSHEA clearly state that a "new dietary ingredient" is one that was not sold in the US as a "dietary ingredient" prior to October 15, 1994, when DSHEA was passed -- and many supplements on the market today contain such new dietary ingredients.
It is important to note here that this DSHEA requirement was meant to involve a simple notification process, not a convoluted ingredient approval process, which is what the FDA is actually proposing to do. In other words, the implication in DSHEA was not that the FDA would require supplement manufacturers to submit extensive applications for ingredient approval, but simply that manufacturers would notify the FDA that they are using of a new ingredient that is presumed to be safe until proven dangerous, not the other way around as the FDA is proposing.
What the FDA is right now trying to do is turn this notification requirement into a formal approval process similar to what the agency requires for new drugs -- and anyone who has been following NaturalNews for a while knows how expensive, laborious, and corrupt that whole process has become.
If the FDA's guidance proposal comes into effect, the agency will use it to control supplement manufacturers by arbitrarily restricting the ingredients they are allowed to use, and extorting them for money in order to gain ingredient approval -- and none of this, of course, was ever intended by DSHEA!
In essence, the FDA is attempting to ruin the original intent of DSHEA's dietary ingredient notification process by turning it into a control tool to over-regulate the supplement industry, and ultimately control what supplements you are allowed to take. And if the agency gets its way, many of the supplements in use today could become "illegal" overnight, and be subject to intense scrutiny by the FDA before being allowed back on the market, if they are ever even allowed back at all.
Pharmaceutical drugs responsible for at least 80 percent of poison-related fatalities, dietary supplements responsible for zero percent
The FDA's ultimate goal to rein in and regulate dietary supplements in the same way that it does pharmaceutical drugs is highly concerning, especially when considering the fact that according to statistics from the US National Poison Data System (NPDS), pharmaceutical drugs are responsible for causing at least 80 percent of all poison-related fatalities. Supplements, on the other hand, are responsible for causing basically zero percent of all deaths in the same category.
Yet the FDA continues to arrogantly treat dietary supplements as dangerous toxins, constantly alleging that it needs more power over the supplement industry to preserve "consumer safety." The truth of the matter is that the FDA already has more than enough power over the supplement industry, but has failed in many cases to enforce what is already on the books. In the rare case that a supplement is implicated in allegedly harming someone, it is often because the FDA failed to properly regulate it under current DSHEA provisions (http://naturalnews.com/032911_dieta...).
FDA guidelines mirror restrictive EU 'Novel Food Regulation,' the time to oppose is NOW
If you value your freedom to freely buy nutritional and dietary supplements, as we here at NaturalNews all do, the time is NOW to oppose the FDA's new proposals. The FDA's guidelines are strangely identical to those found in the EU "Novel Food Regulation" guidelines recently passed, which have eliminated and banned a wide variety of supplements from the European market in the name of "protecting" consumers (http://www.naturalnews.com/032302_h...).
The Alliance for Natural Health has set up a convenient Action Alert page by which you can contact Congress and express opposition to similar proposals being made by the FDA here:
https://secure3.convio.net/aahf/site/Advocacy?cmd=display&page=UserAction&id=833
And while you are at it, you can also oppose the Dietary Supplement Labeling Act, also known as the Durbin bill, which essentially corresponds with the FDA's draft guidance in that it grants more unnecessary power and control over the supplement industry to the FDA (http://naturalnews.com/032911_dieta...).

The mystery of Comet Elenin
Astronomers and other outer space experts are speaking out on a comet expected to make a close call with colliding into Earth later this year. The consequences could be dire, so why are so many people unaware of it?
“I think it’s worth a raised eyebrow” says author Brooks Agnew. He’s done a lot of research on Elenin and tells RT that there are some rather strange coincidences regarding the comet that people should take into consideration.
“A lot of people are concerned about it,” says Agnew. “We’ve done a lot of research on Comet Elenin and what we’ve found is there’s a lot of missing data on this comet”
Agnew says that NASA calls the comet just “a harmless little fuzzball of ice” that won’t come within more than 20 million miles from Earth. Others, he says, are claiming that this comet should raise concern since it doesn’t look like a comet, doesn’t act like a comet and is coming from outside of the area where most comets are accustomed to originate out of.
“There are a lot of things about this comet that don’t make sense,” Agnew says.
Another thing raising concern for the author is that another large asteroid is expected to come close to Earth around the same time. Coincidentally, he says, a new emergency alert system has been announced to debut the same day that asteroid will rock right by our planet.
Agnew attests that allegations about the impact of Elenin have been discussed for centuries, and says that people shouldn’t just shrug them off as crackpot theories. “We’ve been put off by professionals saying everything is going to be fine, but those of us that have been watching the cosmological signs, geological signs [and] oceanographic signs have been showing that there is the trend that the ancients said would be happening.”

pH Cure for Cancer
pH Cure for Cancer
(NaturalNews) In the video below, Vernon Johnson is mixing sodium bicarbonate with molasses instead of the original maple syrup protocol. He cured himself of cancer with sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) by raising his urinary pH to over eight. The pH level of our internal fluids affects every cell in our body. Chronic over-acidity corrodes body tissue, and if left unchecked will interrupt all cellular activities and functions. In other words, over-acidity interferes with life itself. It is at the root of cancer.

Chronic over-acidity corrodes body tissue, and if left unchecked
will interrupt all cellular activities and functions. In other words,
over-acidity interferes with life itself. It is at the root of cancer.
Well I am delighted every time I see anything from Vernon Johnson who managed to get his urinary pH up to 8.5 for five days and then within two weeks was back at his oncologist's office for a test, which showed his bones being cleared of his cancer.
"Cancer tried to kill me. After a struggle or two... or three... or four... or more, I said, "No!" Or at least I was hoping for a "No." I turned to Cesium, but ended up with Baking Soda. My goal was to change my pH quickly. I knew little or next to nothing what pH, Alkaline or Acidic meant. Happily I found out," wrote Vernon Johnson.
Vernon is alive and well and that is all that really matters. He is a cancer survivor and did not spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to become one.
pH Medicine
Everyone should buy some pH strips and become familiar with the invisible pH side of their lives and they should not wait until they get cancer to do so. The time to start treating cancer the natural way begins right now, not after one has allowed oncologists to poison them with chemo and radiation therapies and then one has to struggle against their deadly toxic effects.
Our body's pH controls the activity of every metabolic function happening in our body. pH is behind the body's electrical system and intracellular activity as well as the way our bodies utilize enzymes, minerals, and vitamins.
I wrote in my Sodium Bicarbonate book Rich Man's Poor Man's Cancer Treatment that sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) is the time honored method to "speed up" the return of the body's bicarbonate levels to normal. Sodium bicarbonate happens to be one of our most useful medicines treating as it does the basic acid-alkaline axis of human physiology. Sodium bicarbonate is a "nothing-to-lose-everything-to-gain" treatment for cancer as well as the general acid conditions behind a host of modern diseases.
Baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) lives up to the image on the Arm & Hammer's box, it is the ultimate heavy weight workhorse medicine that every healthcare professional and parent should be knowledgeable about and be using routinely.
Cancer cells have a lower pH than surrounding tissues.
Oncologists do understand that bicarbonate is necessary to protect their patients from the toxicity and harm done by highly toxic chemicals used in chemotherapy. They also know it is of extraordinary help to patients receiving radiation treatments as it protects the kidneys and other tissues of the body from radioactive damages. So does cannabinoids.
Oral NaHCO3 selectively increased the pH of tumors and reduced the formation of spontaneous metastases in mouse models of metastatic breast cancer. NaHCO3 therapy also reduced the rate of lymph node involvement and significantly reduced the formation of hepatic metastases. Acid pH was shown to increase the release of active cathepsin B, an important matrix-remodeling protease.
There has been work going on at the University of Arizona using bicarbonate (baking soda) as a potential treatment for cancer. Robert J. Gillies and his colleagues have demonstrated that pre-treatment of mice with sodium bicarbonate results in the alkalinization of the area around tumors (Raghunand 2003). This type of treatment has been found to "enhance the anti-tumor activity" of other anticancer drugs. This is very similar to the recently published research involving injecting O2 directly into tumors and showing such direct administration of oxygen also facilitated the action of chemotherapy.
This year these same researchers reported that bicarbonate increases tumor pH (i.e., makes it more alkaline) and also inhibits spontaneous metastases (Robey 2009). They showed that oral sodium bicarbonate increased the pH of tumors and also reduced the formation of spontaneous metastases in mice with breast cancer. It also reduced the rate of lymph node involvement.
Utilizing sodium bicarbonate when dealing with cancer does not depend on the Simoncini theory that cancer is a fungus but it sure helps to understand how fungus infections are commonly involved with cancer. I really do not think Simoncini means that cancer is caused by a fungus. What he is really saying is that it is a fungus or it is accompanied by fungus and yeast.
It really does not matter what we believe, certain substances like sodium bicarbonate have a strong and undeniable effect on human physiology that does not depend on our belief systems. There is nothing psychosomatic about bicarbonate; it does not qualify as a placebo and only fools refuse to recognize its importance in general medicine, pediatrics and oncology. There is also potassium bicarbonate, also used as a nutritional medicine and magnesium bicarbonate in the oceans but not available anywhere in solid crystal form. Some of the best products have these minerals with calcium added.
Special Note: In Sodium Bicarbonate - Rich Man's Poor Man's Cancer Treatment, it is stressed that baking soda should not be considered a standalone cancer treatment. It should be used in conjunction with a full protocol.
Soon I will be publishing a video book and a chapter laying out my entire protocol that I teach people how to use in my consultations. The practical hands on information is simple enough to teach in an hour and that is in great part why it offers a revolution in health and medical care.
Though one cannot teach a person about Chinese medicine without a strong commitment to learn it, one can teach a nurse in an hour or two how to use acupuncture needles, especially that Japanese type which uses insertion tubes. The needling part is astonishingly easy though understanding what one is doing is something else.
I have written many books on medicine and will soon come out with the second edition of my cancer book, which is now four years old.
In the case of my Natural Allopathic Medicine protocol lay people, without any medical training, can learn how to treat themselves. It is actually very easy to practice emergency room medicine at home using oral and transdermal means instead of injections and IVs. One can also do chemotherapy at home without an oncologist as long as its natural chemo. Most cancer doctors only like to play with poison and I have a lot to say about that in a coming essay about "hot chemotherapy baths," the fast rising and scientifically unproven "fad" in cancer treatments.
Healthcare practitioners and physicians will gain a new respect when they themselves know, practice and teach people what they can do for themselves at home both before they come to our offices and clinics and certainly when they leave and go back home. We need to empower people to be healthy and take part in recovering from the diseases they fall victim to.

They also know it is of extraordinary help to patients receiving radiation treatments as it protects the kidneys and other tissues of the body from radioactive damages. So does cannabinoids.
Oral NaHCO3 selectively increased the pH of tumors and reduced the formation of spontaneous metastases in mouse models of metastatic breast cancer. NaHCO3 therapy also reduced the rate of lymph node involvement and significantly reduced the formation of hepatic metastases. Acid pH was shown to increase the release of active cathepsin B, an important matrix-remodeling protease.
There has been work going on at the University of Arizona using bicarbonate (baking soda) as a potential treatment for cancer. Robert J. Gillies and his colleagues have demonstrated that pre-treatment of mice with sodium bicarbonate results in the alkalinization of the area around tumors (Raghunand 2003). This type of treatment has been found to "enhance the anti-tumor activity" of other anticancer drugs. This is very similar to the recently published research involving injecting O2 directly into tumors and showing such direct administration of oxygen also facilitated the action of chemotherapy.
This year these same researchers reported that bicarbonate increases tumor pH (i.e., makes it more alkaline) and also inhibits spontaneous metastases (Robey 2009). They showed that oral sodium bicarbonate increased the pH of tumors and also reduced the formation of spontaneous metastases in mice with breast cancer. It also reduced the rate of lymph node involvement.
Utilizing sodium bicarbonate when dealing with cancer does not depend on the Simoncini theory that cancer is a fungus but it sure helps to understand how fungus infections are commonly involved with cancer. I really do not think Simoncini means that cancer is caused by a fungus. What he is really saying is that it is a fungus or it is accompanied by fungus and yeast.
It really does not matter what we believe, certain substances like sodium bicarbonate have a strong and undeniable effect on human physiology that does not depend on our belief systems. There is nothing psychosomatic about bicarbonate; it does not qualify as a placebo and only fools refuse to recognize its importance in general medicine, pediatrics and oncology. There is also potassium bicarbonate, also used as a nutritional medicine and magnesium bicarbonate in the oceans but not available anywhere in solid crystal form. Some of the best products have these minerals with calcium added.
Special Note: In Sodium Bicarbonate - Rich Man's Poor Man's Cancer Treatment, it is stressed that baking soda should not be considered a standalone cancer treatment. It should be used in conjunction with a full protocol.
Soon I will be publishing a video book and a chapter laying out my entire protocol that I teach people how to use in my consultations. The practical hands on information is simple enough to teach in an hour and that is in great part why it offers a revolution in health and medical care.
Though one cannot teach a person about Chinese medicine without a strong commitment to learn it, one can teach a nurse in an hour or two how to use acupuncture needles, especially that Japanese type which uses insertion tubes. The needling part is astonishingly easy though understanding what one is doing is something else.
I have written many books on medicine and will soon come out with the second edition of my cancer book, which is now four years old.
In the case of my Natural Allopathic Medicine protocol lay people, without any medical training, can learn how to treat themselves. It is actually very easy to practice emergency room medicine at home using oral and transdermal means instead of injections and IVs. One can also do chemotherapy at home without an oncologist as long as its natural chemo. Most cancer doctors only like to play with poison and I have a lot to say about that in a coming essay about "hot chemotherapy baths," the fast rising and scientifically unproven "fad" in cancer treatments.
Healthcare practitioners and physicians will gain a new respect when they themselves know, practice and teach people what they can do for themselves at home both before they come to our offices and clinics and certainly when they leave and go back home. We need to empower people to be healthy and take part in recovering from the diseases they fall victim to.

Virtually all kidney disease patients on dialysis have vitamin D deficiency
Virtually all kidney disease patients on dialysis have vitamin D deficiency
(NaturalNews) Research abounds that adequate vitamin D is essential for good health (http://www.naturalnews.com/Vitamin_...). Unfortunately, however, millions of Americans are not getting enough of this so-called "sunshine" vitamin. Now it turns out that one group in particular is almost universally lacking in vitamin D. According to a study slated for publication in an upcoming issue of the Clinical Journal of the American Society Nephrology (CJASN), kidney disease patients who have low blood protein levels and who start dialysis during the winter are at extremely high risk of being seriously deficient in vitamin D.
Ishir Bhan, MD, of Massachusetts General Hospital, and his research team studied data from 908 U.S. dialysis patients in the Accelerated Mortality on Renal Replacement (ArMORR) cohort. The scientists' goal was to investigate routinely measured clinical and demographic characteristics to see if they could figure out which patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on dialysis are at increased risk for vitamin D deficiency.
The results showed that 79% of the patients in the study were vitamin D deficient. The strongest predictors of a lack of vitamin D were being African-American, female, the winter season, and low blood levels of the protein albumin. In fact, when all these factors came together, the result was that every single kidney disease patient was deficit in vitamin D.
Specifically, the researchers found that if black dialysis patients had low blood albumin levels during the winter season, the likelihood they would be vitamin D deficient increased from 90% to 100% for women and from 85% to 100% for men. Their white counterparts fared only slightly better, with their risk of vitamin D deficiency rising from 82% to 94% in women and from 66% to 92% in males.
"This research identifies risk factors for nutritional vitamin D deficiency in the dialysis population and may provide clues to its biology in this population," Dr. Bhan said in a statement to the media.
So what is going on here that makes ESRD patients on dialysis so vulnerable to vitamin D deficiency? The scientists pointed out in their media statement that although previous studies have suggested that patients on dialysis have an impaired ability to generate vitamin D when they are exposed to adequate sunlight, their study indicates that skin-based production of vitamin D is likely to be important in patients with ESRD.
Although the researchers did not discuss the issue in their paper, their findings raise a which-came-first type issue. Is it possible vitamin D is at least part of the cause of serious kidney disease, and not merely a byproduct of the illness? With a growing number of chronic and serious illnesses -- including heart disease (http://www.naturalnews.com/027580_v...) and breast cancer (http://www.naturalnews.com/027393_c...) -- now firmly linked to vitamin D deficiency, the idea that a lack of vitamin D could be a causative factor in ESRD would seem to be a possibility worthy of investigation.

Surveillance Video Captures Random Act Of Kindness By Officer Before He Was Slain
We’ve seen so many surveillance, dash cam and citizen videos of cops doing bad that it’s easy to forget that they can easily be caught on video doing something good.
It’s just not newsworthy, so it rarely makes the light of day.
Unless they are killed in the line of duty.

Air Force sergeant AWOL over 'forged' Obama document
Air Force sergeant AWOL over 'forged' Obama document
A Germany-based staff sergeant in the U.S. Air Force has challenged the eligibility of President Obama, announcing in an email posted on the BirtherReport.com website, "Arrest B. Obama or arrest me."
In a case that recalls the months-long challenge to Obama's eligibility by Lt. Col. Terrence Lakin, the noncommissioned officer, Daryn J. Moran, said he had stopped reporting for duty at Landstuhl Regional Medical Center.
He reported he would return when Obama "provides a birth certificate which stands up to professional examination."
"I've read the reports about President Obama. His birth certificate has been proven, to my satisfaction, proven false, fraudulent and a forgery," Moran wrote.
Lakin ultimately was sentenced at a court-martial to six months in prison for his decision not to follow deployment orders because Obama had failed to document his eligibility to be commander in chief of the armed services. Lakin has been released from Ft. Leavenworth.

Experts: Fukushima 'off-scale' lethal radiation level infers millions dying Continue reading on Examiner.com Experts: Fukushima 'off-scale' lethal ra
Fukushima nuclear power plant radiation recordings of external gamma radiation have been so high this week, they went off scale said veteran nuclear expert Arnie Gunderson on Thursday after the famous physicist, Dr. Chris Busby told the Japanese people this week that radioactive air contamination there is now 300 times that of Chernobyl and 1000 times the atomic bomb peak in 1963, inferring that hundreds of millions of people are now dying from Fukushima radiation, including people in the United States.
If noticing unusual amounts of hair falling out, confusion, nose bleeds or other odd symptoms typical of radiation sickness, it might be due to the United States record high levels of radiation, now multiple times acceptable safety limits not only on the west coast, but also in other locations around the nation.

A police officer killed while responding to a domestic disturbance in a small eastern Pennsylvania borough had pointed a stun gun at two dogs before being shot, court records reveal.
Freemansburg police officer Robert Lasso had pointed at the attacking dogs when the homeowner pulled out a shotgun and fired the fatal blast on Thursday evening.
In police custody, the alleged gunman, 46-year-old George Hitcho Jr, said he had told Mr Lasso to get off his property and not come on unless he had a warrant, authorities said.

SMART METERS: No Federal Mandate
THERE IS NO FEDERAL SECURITY MANDATE FOR SMART METERS, according to George W. Arnold the national coordinator for smart-grid interoperability at the National Institute of Standards and Technology. This agency of the U.S. Department of Commerce is said not to be involved in regulations but is only tasked with promoting standards among industries.
While both the 2005 and 2007 faux energy bills were codified into public laws, NO part of them creates a federal law pertaining to individual consumers or dictating that the public must be forced to comply with provisions of SMART Grid.
Contrary to the bleating of manufacturers and utility talking heads, who claim there is no “opt out”, the fact is you, the consumer must be offered the meter, or request a meter and “OPT IN”. No one can be forced to comply with an unrevealed contract between private corporations, and to which you were never a party and had no knowledge of.
Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 : An Energy Tax Package was under development in Congress for several years prior to 2008. In September 2008, the package was finally enacted into law via its inclusion in the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008. This tax package shifted tax liabilities from corporations who were already posting massive record profits, onto the public.
Section 1307 State Consideration of Smart Grid
Energy 2007, Page 6 : This Section amends PURPA to create two additional PURPA Standards. (Note: Two new PURPA Standards are also created in Section 532.)
These standards are in the form of requirements on parties such as utilities to undertake certain actions. The standards are not directly prescriptive on these parties, however; it is up to state utility regulatory commissions, or the bodies that govern other types of utilities, to decide that the standards should be actually adopted by utilities subject to their jurisdiction.

Court allows torture lawsuit against Rumsfeld
Court allows torture lawsuit against Rumsfeld
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Two American men can go ahead with a civil lawsuit against former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, an appeals court said Monday, over allegations they were tortured in Iraq at the hands of the U.S. military.
Donald Vance and Nathan Ertel sued in federal court seeking damages from Rumsfeld and unnamed others over their roles in developing, authorizing and using harsh interrogation techniques in Iraq against them, thus violating their rights.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit, based in Chicago, upheld a decision by a federal judge in Illinois to allow the lawsuit to proceed despite efforts by the former Bush and current Obama administration to get the case dismissed.
The two men worked for a private security company in Iraq in 2006 and said they became concerned the firm was engaging in illegal bribery or other corruption activities. They notified U.S. authorities and began cooperating with them.

Mother bear kills cub and then itself
Mother bear kills cub and then itself
The Chinese media has reported on an extraordinary account of a mother bear saving her cub from a life of torture by strangling it and then killing itself.
The bears were kept in a farm located in a remote area in the North-West of China. The bears on the farm had their gall bladders milked daily for 'bear bile,' which is used as a remedy in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM).
It was reported that the bears are kept in tiny cages known as 'crush cages', as the bears have no room to manoeuvre and are literally crushed.
The bile is harvested by making a permanent hole or fistula in the bears' abdomen and gall bladder.
As the hole is never closed, the animals are suspect to various infections and diseases including tumours, cancers and death from peritonitis.
The bears are fitted with an iron vest, as they often try to kill themselves by hitting their stomach as they are unable to bear the pain.
A person who was on the farm in place of a friend witnessed the procedures and told Reminbao.com that they were inhumane.
The witness also claimed that a mother bear broke out its cage when it heard its cub howl in fear before a worker punctured its stomach to milk the bile.

Electronic skin tattoo has medical, gaming, spy uses
A hair-thin electronic patch that adheres to the skin like a temporary tattoo could transform medical sensing, computer gaming and even spy operations, according to a US study published Thursday.
The micro-electronics technology, called an epidermal electronic system (EES), was developed by an international team of researchers from the United States, China and Singapore, and is described in the journal Science.
"It's a technology that blurs the distinction between electronics and biology," said co-author John Rogers, a professor in materials science and engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
"Our goal was to develop an electronic technology that could integrate with the skin in a way that is mechanically and physiologically invisible to the user."
The patch could be used instead of bulky electrodes to monitor brain, heart and muscle tissue activity and when placed on the throat it allowed users to operate a voice-activated video game with better than 90 percent accuracy.
"This type of device might provide utility for those who suffer from certain diseases of the larynx," said Rogers. "It could also form the basis of a sub-vocal communication capability, suitable for covert or other uses."
The wireless device is nearly weightless and requires so little power it can fuel itself with miniature solar collectors or by picking up stray or transmitted electromagnetic radiation, the study said.

Proposed rule on farms called ‘absurd’
Proposed rule on farms called ‘absurd’
Feds Want to Require License to Drive Farm Vehicles
A new rule being proposed by the federal Department of Transportation would require farmers to get commercial drivers licenses.
The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration, which is a part of DOT, wants to adopt standards that would reclassify all farm vehicles and implements as Commercial Motor Vehicles, officials said. Likewise, the proposal, if adopted, would require all farmers and everyone on the farm who operates any of the equipment to obtain a CDL, they added.
The proposed rule change would mean that anyone who drives a tractor or operates any piece of motorized farming equipment would be required to pass the same tests and complete the same detailed forms and logs required of semi-tractor trailer drivers.
Drivers would keep logs of information including hours worked and miles traveled. Vehicles would be required to display DOT numbers. A CDL in Virginia costs $64 for eight years, or $8 per year, not including the cost of an instructional class and the written test.
If the DOT reclassifies farm vehicles and implements as commercial vehicles, the federal government will have regulatory control over the nation’s farm workers, estimated at over 800,000, by requiring them to have commercial drivers licenses.
That possibility worries county farmers and others in Halifax County interested in agriculture.
“I have a CDL, but very few farmers have one,” said Nathalie farmer Ronnie Waller. “This is just another bureaucratic hurdle for the farmer.
“It’s hard enough fighting Mother Nature, insects and all…now we have to fight the federal government,” he added. “We’re getting more rammed down our throats, and I could see repercussions across the nation. This move is another inane gesture in my opinion,” Waller concluded.

Ron Paul’s message hits America
Last night the GOP presidential candidates went head to head in a debate. Many of the issues plaguing the US were talked about but one voice emerged over the rest. Ron Paul was given a lot of air-time to make his points which some people have complained about. Is a new era of political thought around the bend?

Did media cover up Sen. Durbin's confrontation with reporter? (VIDEO)
Chicago, August 11, 2011 – This week U.S. Senator Dick Durbin held a press conference with members of the mainstream media to talk about the downgrade crisis. But the Senator’s scripted storyline veered off-course when a conservative reporter – me – showed up to ask an embarrassing question. Namely, “Senator, you’ve blamed the tea party…but do you bear any responsibility for this downgrade crisis?”
What, you didn’t hear about this incident in the media? For those of you that need more proof that journalism is dead, read on.

Romney - 'Corporations Are People' At Iowa State Fair

Romney - 'Corporations Are People' At Iowa State Fair
DES MOINES — Mitt Romney’s visit to the Iowa State Fair on Thursday might have been the best debate prep session he could have hoped for.
Romney’s appearance at the fair’s soapbox grew unusually testy when a few angry people heckled the Republican presidential candidate over his declaration not to raise taxes. They urged the campaign front-runner to increase taxes on the wealthy to help fund such entitlement programs as Social Security and Medicare.
Romney explained that one way to fulfill promises on entitlement programs is to “raise taxes on people,” but before he could articulate his position on not raising taxes, someone interrupted.
“Corporations!” a protester shouted, apparently urging Romney to raise taxes on corporations that have benefited from loopholes in the tax code. “Corporations!”
“Corporations are people, my friend,” Romney said.
Some people in the front of the audience shouted, “No, they’re not!”
“Of course they are,” Romney said. “Everything corporations earn ultimately goes to people. Where do you think it goes?”
The heated exchange prompted an attack from Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz.
“Mitt Romney’s comment today that ‘corporations are people’ is one more indication that Romney and the Republicans on the campaign trail and in Washington have misplaced priorities,” she said in a statement, calling the comment a “shocking admission.”

First they came for the raw milk, and I didn't speak out because I drank no raw milk…
(NaturalNews) The FDA raids on raw milk farmers have outraged the U.S. public, and an increasing number of people are becoming aware of the overreaching regulatory tyranny of this rogue government agency. But not enough members of the public are yet taking action to stand up against government abuses of power.
Many people prefer to be consumed with their own senseless pursuit of materialistic fulfillment: Fashion, jewelry, money, cars and even mind-numbing distractions like sports and mainstream television. They don't speak out against the FDA raids on farmers because they either don't know or they just figure, "It's not my problem."
A similar situation took place during Hitler's rise to power in Nazi Germany, where most members of the German public, even after being made aware of the atrocities being committed by the Nazi regime, decided it wasn't their problem so they didn't speak out. Pastor Martin Niemoller (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_...) famously spoke out against the Nazi regime with a statement that began, "First they came for the Communists..."
He was arrested by the Nazis in 1937 and imprisoned in the Sachsenhausen and Dachau concentration camps after being charged with the crime of "not being enthusiastic enough about the Nazi movement." (Which is even more ridiculous than the crime of "mislabeling cheese.")
As a variation of this quote, and inspired by another version of this that I first saw on www.RealFoodRights.com I offer the following "raw milk" version of Neimoller's famous quote:
First they came for the raw milk
and I didn't speak out because I drank no raw milk.
Then they came for the non-GMO farmers
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a farmer.
Next they came for the home gardeners
and I didn't speak out because I grew no gardens.
Then they came for me
and there was no one left to speak for me.
The time to speak out against government terrorism against farmers and raw milk advocates is NOW! For if we do not stand up against the rampant abuses of power that already exist in government right now, we can only be assured the abuses will escalate and become far worse.
America is becoming the new Nazi-like regime, following in the same footsteps of the corporate-controlled fascism that helped put Hitler in power.

Privacy Groups Protest Massive DHS Database of Secret Watchlists
Homeland Security plans to operate a massive new database of names, photos, birthdays and biometrics called Watchlist Service, duplicated from the FBI's Terrorist Screening Database which has proven not to be accurate many times in the past. DHS wants to exempt the Watchlist Service from Privacy Act provisions, meaning you will never know if you are wrongfully listed. Privacy groups worried about inaccurate info and mission creep have filed a protest, arguing the Privacy Act says DHS must notify subject of government surveillance.

America's 'New' Drinking Water Toxins
How To Protect Yourself From America’s ‘New’ Drinking Water Toxins
Millions of Americans have been ingesting them for years—perchlorate, hexavalent chromium, volatile organic compounds—not because they’re safe, but because they are among 6,000 toxins the EPA has not gotten around to regulating in municipal drinking water systems.
But after a change in administrations and a scathing review by the General Accounting Office, the EPA has begun to develop regulations to remove these chemicals from tap and bottled water—and industry has begun efforts to delay or prevent their implementation.
While government and industry wrestle over regulations, here are the prime suspects and the best ways to remove them from your water without government help:

Removing Your All-Too-Visible Internet Search History
related: Profile Pics on Social Media Sites Pose Privacy Risk, Researcher Warns
The Terrible Truth About Facebook
August 5, 2011
By Holly Deyo
After listening to Katherine Albrecht again Tuesday night on Coast To Coat AM, I was reminded to clear my Google search history. Clearing browser history is something everyone who uses a search engine should do regularly.
This was underscored yesterday after hearing Judge Napolitano reveal how government wants to access your Google search history WITHOUT A WARRANT. Congress is about to vote on legislation that would require all Internet providers to keep everyone's search history for 1 year – at their expense – not the government's. Beyond searches, this history includes every visit, every click, every hit, every email, etc. you perform. Everyone using GMail for email really needs to jump ship as your privacy is exposed more than most.
We're assuming this massive government overgrasp applies to Yahoo, Bing and other engines. In Bing's favor, they make finding how to clear your search history very obvious. At the bottom of the left-hand menu, it says Search History and you just follow the trail from there.
For Yahoo, like Google, it took more nosing around to locate the Clear Your Internet Search History. When clearing browser history from Yahoo's instructions, it's evident they don't keep up with browsers' Tools Menu as mine looked nothing like what Yahoo said it should. (We primarily use Firefox, once in a great while, Safari.) Maybe they are more current with other browsers like Internet Explorer or Chrome, etc.
Google was much more current, but finding the instructions was another story.
How to clear your search history on Google used to be easily located on their site. To do so, you need to find "Support", which is now conspicuously invisible. However, I'd screen previously snapped the URL and retyped it. Voila! The Delete Search History page popped up.
If you still wish to use Google after clearing your personal history DAILY, would suggest you copy down and keep this web address: www.google.com/support/websearch/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=465#browser
Below is the full page snap of how to get rid of the nosy info they keep on you.

How JP Morgan Took Over All Kentucky’s Financial Services, And Why You Should Be Scared
On July 1, JP Morgan Chase became the Commonwealth’s bank. As the state’s official depository, JP now receives all deposits, writes all checks and makes all wire transfers on the $12-15 billion that flow through Kentucky state government in the course of a fiscal year. It will cut payroll checks, receive federal and other funds earmarked for the state, and disburse educational or transportation or any other funds to their appropriate monetary endpoints. For its trouble, the bank will receive $1.3 million in state fees and the ability to re-lend idle state funds out to customers for private gain.
Yes, you should be worried.
JP’s decade
A global corporation with more than $2 trillion in assets and operations in 60 countries, JP Morgan Chase has been a major figure in the ongoing global financial crisis. As one of the largest private banks in the U.S., the bank made incredible amounts of money by underwriting many of the questionable loans (sub-prime, zero down, adjustable rate) that fueled the American housing bubble. It then made even more money by packaging hundreds of these shitty loans into a single “product,” a mortgage backed security, which it sold like Twinkies to pious religious non-profits, filthy-rich hedge fund managers, municipal fire-fighters, retired auto-workers, and the like, each security effectively putting these groups on the hook—and not JP—for the shitty loans that it had helped create.

Mystery of the orange substance invading from skies in one of the world’s most remote spots
A strange orange substance raining down from the skies has left villagers in one of the world’s most remote areas mystified.
The alien invader was found in rain buckets in Kivalina, an Eskimo community in Alaska, and floating in the harbour, creating 100ft-by-10ft swathes of what one resident described as ‘bright neon orange’.
The news attracted all the townspeople, keen to get a glimpse of the phenomenon that covered much of the harbor and then began washing ashore on Wednesday.

Rosalind Peterson -- Costly U.S. Power Grid Tests Approved Without Public Consent
Rosalind Peterson -- Costly U.S. Power Grid Tests Approved Without Public Consent
By Rosalind Peterson
August 5, 2011

On June 27, 2011, CBS News reported: “…A yearlong experiment with America's electric grid could mess up traffic lights, security systems and some computers and make plug-in clocks and appliances like programmable coffeemakers run up to 20 minutes fast...” [1] CBS News also reported that: “…Tom O'Brian, who heads the time and frequency division at the National Institute of Standards and Technology, expects widespread (unspecified) effects...” [1].
The CBS report did not specify who approved this test. This test will begin without public consent, substantial public notice or public debate in mid-July 2011 [1]. This test could disrupt so many businesses, state and local governments, and other government agencies, that it could quickly become a National Security nightmare and a massive public headache.
"A lot of people are going to have things break and they're not going to know why," said Demetrios Matsakis, head of the time service department at the U.S. Naval Observatory, one of two official timekeeping agencies in the federal government…This will be an interesting experiment to see how dependent our timekeeping is on the power grid, Matsakis said. [1-2].
According to CBS News, “…The North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC), runs the nation's interlocking web of transmission lines and power plants and they will be conducting the tests…” [1, 3]. Will this company be liable for appliance replacement and other costs associated with these tests?
The disruptions from these tests may have the following consequences according to various news reports:

Hip-Hop Icon Prodigy of Mobb Deep on the Illuminati Symbolism, Obama & More
Alex talks with Grammy Award–winning rapper Prodigy, who is one half of the hip-hop duo Mobb Deep and has spoken out on the Illuminati and secret societies.
Mobb Deep’s Prodigy Speaks On The Illuminati, President Obama & Jay-Z

Hip-Hop DX
August 5, 2011
P chops it up with radio show host Alex Jones about the Illuminati, saying, “It’s definitely not a joke.” He also says Jay-Z “knows what time it is” and more.
New York’s Prodigy of Mobb Deep recently visited The Alex Jones Show to speak about the Illuminati and more. After famously saying, “Illuminati want my mind, soul and my body,” Prodigy took his lyrics further in the recent interview with the controversial Jones. Speaking on how society has been brainwashed, talking about President Obama and more, Prodigy shared his feelings about the world’s “conspiracies.”
“To me, it’s definitely not a joke. There’s a lot of real stuff going on out here, in this world. Secret societies are real. It’s definitely really obvious that they’re at work and it’s at play in the music industry, in the food industry, politics, everywhere you turn, it’s everywhere. You just gotta read the signs, the writing on the wall. It’s right in front of your face. Once people just learn about it and do a little research about it all, they’ll be like, ‘Yeah, I understand what’s going on.’”

Yikes! Look who just endorsed Obama for 4 more years
Yikes! Look who just endorsed Obama for 4 more years
It may be early in the campaign season, but the Communist Party USA already has seen fit to endorse Barack Obama for the 2012 election.
While noting he is disappointed with "some aspects" of the Obama administration's domestic and foreign policy, Sam Webb, chairman of the Communist Party USA, threw his support behind Obama's re-election bid.
In an article last week at People's Weekly World, the official newspaper of the Communist Party USA, Webb discussed the need for a third party consisting of the so-called working class and labor as well as "racially and nationally oppressed people, women, youth, immigrants, seniors, gay and straight."

A mobile application for Google's Android smartphones can secretly record users' phone calls and transmit them to malicious hackers, security researchers have found.
Once downloaded by a user, the app – which the researcher has not named, but seems to have a name relating to "System Messages" – surreptitiously stores a recording of the user's incoming and outgoing calls to the phone's memory card, according to the New York-based security experts CA Technologies.
In a blog post unveiling the finding, researcher Dinesh Venkatesan said the so-called "Trojan app" is one of the most invasive they have ever uncovered. He also warned that there is an increasing trend targeting smartphones using Google's Android software, which allows developers to submit apps with little vetting.
Google had not returned requests for comment at the time of publication.
Venkateskan wrote on the researcher's official blog: "In one of our earlier blogs, we have demonstrated how a Trojan logs all the details of incoming/outgoing calls and call duration in a text file.
"This Trojan is more advanced as it records the conversation itself in 'amr' format [which is optimised for recording speech]. Also it has many other malicious activities that we have seen in many of the earlier malware incidents targeted for Android platform."
