There’s a good chance you may be eating a livestock drug banned in 160 nations.
While researchers and scientists investigate the cause of our diabetes, obesity, asthma and ADHD epidemics, they should ask why the FDA approved a livestock drug banned in 160 nations and responsible for hyperactivity, muscle breakdown and 10 percent mortality in pigs, according to angry farmers who phoned the manufacturer.
The beta agonist ractopamine, a repartitioning agent that increases protein synthesis, was recruited for livestock use when researchers found the drug, used in asthma, made mice more muscular says Beef magazine.
But unlike the growth promoting antibiotics and hormones used in livestock which are withdrawn as the animal nears slaughter, ractopamine is started as the animal nears slaughter.
As much as twenty percent of Paylean, given to pigs for their last 28 days, Optaflexx, given to cattle their last 28 to 42 days and Tomax, given to turkeys their last 7 to 14 days, remains in consumer meat says author and well known veterinarian Michael W. Fox. Read the rest of this entry »
The Money Assassins
Excerpt from “The Armageddon Conspiracy Website“
Published here: Sunday, February 7, 2010 at 2:38 PM
In Zeitgeist Addendum, “Economic Hitman” John Perkins said:
“We economic hit men really have been the ones responsible for creating this first truly global empire and we work in many different ways. But perhaps the most common is that we will identify a country that has resources our corporations covet, like oil, and then arrange a huge loan to that country from the World Bank or one of it’s sister organizations. But the money never actually goes to the country. Instead it goes to our big corporations to build infrastructure projects in that country. Power plants, industrial parks, ports…things that benefit a few rich people in that country in addition to our corporations, but really don’t help a majority of the people at all. However, the whole country is left holding a huge debt.”
It’s such a big debt they can’t repay it, and that’s part of the plan, that they can’t repay it. And so at some point we economic hit men go back to them and say ‘Listen, you owe us a lot of money. You can’t pay your debts, so sell your oil real cheap to our oil companies, allow us to build a military base in your country, or send troops in support of ours to someplace in the world like Iraq, or vote with us on the next U.N. vote.’ They have to have their electric utility company privatized and their water and sewage system privatized and sold to US corporations or other multinational corporations.

Mystery Heavenly Body Discovered [Washington Post Front Page]

A heavenly body possibly as large as the giant planet Jupiter and possibly so close to Earth that it would be part of this solar system has been found in the direction of the constellation Orion by an orbiting telescope aboard the U.S. infrared astronomical satellite. So mysterious is the object that astronomers do not know if it is a planet, a giant comet, a nearby “protostar” that never got hot enough to become a star, a distant galaxy so young that it is still in the process of forming its first stars or a galaxy so shrouded in dust that none of the light cast by its stars ever gets through. “All I can tell you is that we don’t know what it is,” Dr. Gerry Neugebauer, IRAS chief scientist for California’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory and director of the Palomar Observatory for the California Institute of Technology said in an interview.

Braco – Description of an Invisible Power

Published here: Friday, February 5, 2010 at 9:43 PM
Prof. Alex Schneider explains that “Braco is taking the people up to a higher level of consciousness. During those moments when he is gazing at us, he is lifting us up to this higher level where we can feel, who we really are – and this is much more than just our physical body. He brings us home to ourselves!”
Schneider also says that a group-session is more effective than an individual session as the group actually helps the people to get easier to that higher level.
The Croatian scientist Drago Plecko has been searching and analyzing the work of spiritual masters and healers all around the world for over 30 years. When he finally met Braco after having done all this work and having gained such a deep knowledge, he was deeply impressed and stated that he never experienced such a strong and positive power and effect on the people anywhere else in this world. Plecko explains in his book about Braco (“The mystery of Braco”) why he is so outstanding and powerful. He analyzed dozens of cases and compared Braco´s work with all available literature and knowledge about healing, energy, psychology and physics. The result is impressive: Plecko explains Braco´s abilities from three different directions:

Food Inc.

For those who need a reality check (and who doesn’t? I certainly did), rent the movie “Food Inc.” I finally got to watch it last night, and although I have researched the Power Elite for at least two decades, this excellent movie sometimes caught me off guard. It’s very, very difficult to comprehend the seemingly unlimited evil the people on top of the Corporate World possess. There are no words to explain how they treat the animals that we eat, the meat and the crops, how they back our farmers into the corner and sue them if they don’t adjust to the giant Monsanto Global Elite owned company’s policies and rules. And the law backs up the Industry, not the individual (but what else is new?)
And this is just the beginning. Even I (and I’m used to digging into this kind of stuff), felt anger and disgust creeping up on me when I saw the movie, and I made a decision I should have made a long time ago. I am not going to feed the food industry anymore . I am going to buy directly from the local farmers and my goal is not to spend one penny on Corporate America’s manipulated food and their criminal activities. I feel I have to stop contributing to this insanity. Not to mention how their manipulated food is affecting our bodies and our minds — how it makes it so much more difficult to connect to our higher multi-dimensional selves and how it gives us diabetes, heart decease and more.
Some people say that it’s just power and greed and that’s all there is to it. It’s human behavior. No, it’s not! If you objectively look at your fellow man and woman, you notice that almost everybody is gentle, kind, forgiving and loving at heart — even those you don’t like. If you look, there is still decency deep within these people. Humans are not murderers by nature! The people in power are. If you look at their actions and their 100% lack of compassion, ethics, morals, remorse and all the rest of the good properties humans possess, you will perhaps start thinking. “maybe they are not even human. Maybe these disgusting people are not of this world after all?” You see, these beings pulling the strings here lack almost all of the positive energies the human spirit possesses. They are our opposites and they try to force us to give up our human uniqueness and have us think like them. And to some degree, they have succeeded. They are very clever, but we are more clever than they are — so it’s time to say, “we won’t take it anymore. We don’t need you, we don’t want you, so take your blood money and leave!”
I strongly advise you to watch it if you haven’t. It certainly made me think and change the basics in my life. starting today.
In Britain, the Hunt is On for Aliens
PressTv, January 25. 2010

Scientists have broadened search for extraterrestrial life on other planets in recent years.
Leading astronomers in Britain say they have compelling evidence of alien life on other planets, a claim that would mark a breakthrough if proven correct.
Lord Rees, Britain’s leading astronomer and the president of the Royal Society and Astronomer Royal, told BBC on Monday that there is a good chance of discovering life on other planets.
According to Rees, the recent deployment of advanced telescopes capable of detecting outlying planets with earth-like features has raised such possibilities.
“Technology has advanced so that for the very first time we can actually have the realistic hope of detecting planets no bigger than the earth orbiting other stars,” he said.
“(We’ll be able to learn) whether they have continents and oceans, learning what type of atmosphere they have.”
He said however that life and intelligence on other planets would undoubtedly come in forms that are beyond human capacity, “as much as we [humans] are beyond a chimpanzee,” he added.
His comments come as hundreds of scientists and astronomers gather in London for an international conference to discuss the prospect of discovering extra-terrestrial life, a topic that has provoked the curiosity and interest of influential individuals and entities, including the Vatican.
Over the past fifty years, scientists have been searching for radio broadcasts that signal the existence of intelligent life on other planets, but have only heard static so far.
Lord Rees said the finding of life, even in the simplest form, elsewhere in the universe “would clearly be one of the great discoveries of the 21st Century”.
New Aurora Mystery: What is Going on in the Skies over Norway!?
RedIce Creations, January 28. 2010

On Jan. 20, 2010, Per-Arne Mikalsen was photographing a vast aurora erupting over the northern Norwegian town of Andenes.
Because solar activity is on the increase, aurora spotters have many opportunities to see the Northern Lights. On this particular night the aurora was intense, stretching toward the southern latitudes of Norway.
In one of the photographs taken by Mikalsen was an “object” that couldn’t be identified. Although Mikalsen had taken several images at the same location, just one photo showed a mysterious green parachute-like object hanging with the main aurora. (This time, it appears that the Russian military was not involved in the making of this strange shape in the sky.)
At first it seemed easy to dismiss the object as a lens flare or a spot on the camera lens, but after further study it became clear that the answer wasn’t that simple.
Also, Mikalsen is no stranger to aurorae, having worked on Andøya Rocket Range (on the island of Andøya) for many years. He’s seen aurorae of all shapes and sizes, but he’d never before seen a structure like this hanging in the sky.
Vatican Bank Charged with Money-Laundering
PressTV, January 24. 2010
Published here: Monday, January 25, 2010 at 7:15 AM
The Bank of the Vatican has been accused of laundering USD 200 million by proxy through an Italian creditor, a report indicates.
The allegation of the Vatican bank’s financial corruption has been made by an Italian magazine that pointed to the financial institute’s purported involvement in stealth fiscal transactions —via several accounts —with Italy’s UniCredit Bank, Russia Today television network quoted the Panorama magazine as reporting.
“This corruption is continuing on a regular basis in the Vatican,” claimed Janathan Levy, a lawyer familiar with the bank.
“Again, there’s no reason for a religion to have a bank that does worldwide commercial activities, dealing in gold, dealing in insurance, dealing in property and then hiding behind the Roman Catholic Church,” Levy pointed out.
“I had the privilege to walk inside this bank. It’s nothing like a bank,” the Russian news channel quoted another lawyer, Massimiliano Gabrieli, as saying.
“If you go there you deposit or withdraw money without limit, without any kind of receipt for the bank and for the client. All you have is a single card with a number,” he stated.
The British London Telegraph, has recently ranked the Bank of the Vatican ahead of the Bahamas, Switzerland and Liechtenstein in banking secrecy.
The Vatican has denied all charges.
Chavez Says US ‘Weapon’ Caused Haiti Quake
PressTV, January21. 2010
Published here: Thursday, January 21, 2010 at 7:13 PM
Venezuelan leader Hugo Chavez Wednesday accused the United States of causing the destruction in Haiti by testing a ‘tectonic weapon’ to induce the catastrophic earthquake that hit the country last week.
President Chavez said the US was “playing God” by testing devices capable of creating eco-type catastrophes, the Spanish newspaper ABC quoted him as saying.
A 7.0-magnitude quake rattled the desperately poor country on January 12, killing an estimated 100,000 to 200,000 people. As Haiti looks to the world for basic sustenance, the authorities say the biggest dangers facing survivors are untreated wounds and rising disease.
Following the quake, appeals for humanitarian aid were responded to globally. However, the nation is struggling with violence and looting as aid is still not enough for the tens of thousands left homeless and injured.
Chavez said the killer earthquake followed a test of “weapon of earthquakes” just offshore from Haiti. He did not elaborate on the source of his claim.
The outspoken leader had earlier accused the US of occupying Haiti “under the guise of the natural disaster.”
At least 11,000 US troops have been dispatched to the country to provide security for aid distribution efforts.
Venezuelan media have reported that the earthquake “may be associated with the project called HAARP, a system that can generate violent and unexpected changes in climate.”
HAARP, the High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program, is a study run in Alaska directed at the occasional reconfiguration of the properties of the Earth’s ionosphere to improve satellite communications.
Former US Secretary of Defense William Cohen in 1997 expressed concerned over countries engaging “in eco-type of terrorism whereby they can alter the climate, set off earthquakes, volcanoes remotely through the use of electromagnetic waves.”
