<p>(Natural - News) Companies that sell colloidal silver, which could provide protection against infection with the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19), now face&nbsp;<a href="https://www.fda.gov/consumers/health-fraud-scams/fraudulent-coronavirus-disease-2019-covid-19-products" target="_blank">possible reprimand</a>&nbsp;from the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for selling &ldquo;fraudulent products.&rdquo;<img style="float: right;" src="https://vertassets.blob.core.windows.net/image/32c35f3d/32c35f3d-2f78-4027-ae8a-2fa094a2d378/375_250-fda_logo.jpg" alt="Image: FDA aggressively attacking colloidal silver products to clear the way for a Big Pharma coronavirus VACCINE (that will probably kill 100,000 Americans all by itself)" width="450" /></p>
<p>The federal agency, which only considers pharmaceuticals to possess any medical benefits, says it recently issued warning letters to multiple firms instructing them to stop suggesting that colloidal silver can in any way help prevent, treat, mitigate, diagnose or cure the&nbsp;Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19).</p>
<p>Instead of focusing on FDA-approved pharmaceuticals, which maim and kill hundreds of thousands of Americans every year, the FDA has instead indicated that it will be &ldquo;actively monitoring&rdquo; companies that sell colloidal silver to ensure that they&rsquo;re not trying to help people avoid infection using this natural alternative.</p>
<p>&ldquo;The FDA is exercising its authority to protect consumers from firms selling unapproved products and making false or misleading claims, including, by pursuing warning letters, seizures, or injunctions against products and firms or individuals that violate the law,&rdquo; the agency further indicated in an announcement on its &ldquo;Health Fraud Scams&rdquo; website.</p>
<p>In order to make way for an eventual Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccine, the FDA is trying to clear out natural things like colloidal silver,&nbsp;vitamin C, zinc, and quinone that threaten to expose the inevitable jab &ldquo;solution&rdquo; as unnecessary, and thus fraudulent.</p>
<p>The colloidal silver companies targeted by the FDA as part of its crackdown include:</p>
<p>&bull; JRB Enterprise Group Inc. DBA Anti-Aging Bed<br />&bull; Halosense Inc.<br />&bull; Bioactive C60/FullerLifeC60 LLC<br />&bull; Corona-cure.com<br />&bull; Carahealth<br />&bull; Xephyr LLC dba N-ergetics<br />&bull; GuruNanda, LLC<br />&bull; Quinessence Aromatherapy Ltd<br />&bull; Vivify Holistic Clinic<br />&bull; Colloidal Vitality LLC<br />&bull; The Jim Baker Show<br />&bull; Herbal Amy Inc.</p>
<p>Listen below to&nbsp;<em>The Health Ranger Report</em>&nbsp;as Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, talks about how people are already fleeing big cities to get away from what&rsquo;s to come with the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) crisis:</p>

<h2>The science is clear: Colloidal silver is a powerful antiviral</h2>
<p>Say what it might about colloidal silver, but the FDA is just plain&nbsp;<em>wrong</em>&nbsp;when it comes to completely discounting it as &ldquo;fraudulent.&rdquo; While we can&rsquo;t say for sure that colloidal silver is a certifiable cure for the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19), it remains a scientific fact that silver ions are&nbsp;<a href="https://filmdaily.co/health/is-colloidal-silver-a-cure-for-coronavirus/" target="_blank">powerfully antiviral</a>.</p>
<p>Long before pharmaceutical drugs even existed, silver was commonly used to kill harmful microbes, whether they be bacteria or viruses. Research into colloidal silver has found that it&rsquo;s capable of killing more than 650 known pathogens, including the smallpox virus and even HIV (human immunodeficiency virus).</p>
<p>Colloidal silver is also capable of attaching to the outer protein shells of viruses and foiling their attempts at attaching to host cells, effectively preventing infection.</p>
<p>&ldquo;Colloidal silver may be a lifeline or just a gimmick &ndash; only time will tell,&rdquo; reports&nbsp;<em>Film Daily</em>. &ldquo;Clearly there is a lot of positive information about colloidal silver which, in the absence of a mainstream solution, is not something to be dismissed outright.&rdquo;</p>

   <title>Ignored by Media, Huge Clinton Investigation Heats Up</title>

<p>Of all the scandals hanging over Bill Clinton, the one that&rsquo;s remained the most mysterious for the longest period of time is this: What was his connection to an alleged government drug smuggling operation run out of Mena, Arkansas, while he was governor?</p>
<p>Allegations have swirled for decades about the airport, where multiple federal agencies flew planes for years at the height of the U.S. cocaine epidemic.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.judicialwatch.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/CIA-Mena-Report.pdf">Now, new documents, first obtained by conservative legal watchdog Judicial Watch</a>, shed light on one of the darkest corners of the Clinton legacy.</p>
<p>In 1981, a drug smuggler named Barry Seal moved his operation to a tiny airstrip in Arkansas, the Mena Intermountain Airport.</p>
<p>Seal claimed he&rsquo;d made up to $50 million by delivering 1,000-pound bags of cocaine for South American cartels. When the feds busted him, he became a DEA informant and helped expose how Nicaragua&rsquo;s Communist Sandinistas helped cocaine flow into the U.S.</p>
<p>But rumors have always had it that Seal did a lot more than run picture-taking errands; he was smuggling drugs into the U.S.&mdash;and Bill Clinton allegedly sat at the center of the action.</p>
<p>Eyewitnesses claim to have seen a new airstrip being cut into the wild woods of the Ozarks near Mena, and very strange things happening there.</p>
<p>Former IRS investigator Bill Duncan said reports started to pour in of &ldquo;automatic weapons fire, men of Latin American appearance in the area, people in camouflage moving quietly through streams with automatic weapons, aircraft drops, twin-engine airplane traffic.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Sources claimed that the airport was ground zero of a massive illegal drug-and-arms-smuggling operation that imported cocaine into the United States and shipped weapons to Central American rebels&mdash;and rumor is that Clinton and his pals profited handsomely from the trade.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/lifestyle/1994/07/21/clandestination-arkansas/e2c39f46-602b-4f4c-91fd-1ce94c743d69/?utm_term=.1d78604938a9%20">Clinton&rsquo;s then-governor administration collected a 10 percent &ldquo;commission&rdquo;</a>&nbsp;on every dollar of drugs flown into the Mena airport&mdash;and, according to a 550-page book by Terry Reed, Clinton saw that the drugs got laundered through Dan Lasater, a close friend of the governor, his wife, and his half-brother Roger Clinton.</p>
<p>&ldquo;There was something going on there that the government desperately wanted to hide,&rdquo; said the book&rsquo;s co-author, John Cummings.</p>
<p>But it looked like we&rsquo;d never know the details. In just a few years Seal was murdered by the Medellin cartel, and his plane &ndash; and its new pilot &ndash; got shot down over Nicaragua, illegally carrying arms to the Contras.</p>
<p>The fact that all this happened while Bill Clinton sat in the governor&rsquo;s mansion made people ask the same question: What did Clinton know and when did he know it?</p>
<p>Amazing as it sounds, President Clinton has only made one statement on the shocking allegations over the years&mdash;in 1994. At a press conference, he said things happening at Mena &ldquo;were&nbsp;<em>primarily</em>&nbsp;a matter for federal jurisdiction.&rdquo; The feds &ldquo;didn&rsquo;t tell me anything about it,&rdquo; and that &ldquo;we had nothing&mdash;zero&mdash;to do with it.&rdquo; At the time, reporters thought he used legal language to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.wsj.com/articles/SB920421328276427000">dodge the question</a>.</p>
<p><em>[Sponsored]&nbsp;</em><a href="https://pro.solaireproducts.net/p/663SOLHRT200312A/WSOLW518/"><span><span>#1 &ldquo;Fruit Trick&rdquo; for Perfect Blood Pressure</span></span></a></p>
<p>Others said he outright lied.</p>
<p><em>The London Telegraph&nbsp;</em>reported that Arkansas state trooper Larry Patterson stated, under penalty of perjury, that he and others on his team &ldquo;discussed repeatedly in Clinton&rsquo;s presence&rdquo; very &ldquo;large quantities of drugs being flown into the Mena airport, large quantities of money, large quantities of guns.&rdquo;</p>
<p>In 1996, Congress ordered the CIA to produce a report about what happened at the mountaintop airport with the high volume of drug shipments.</p>
<p>CIA officials insisted the report cleared them&hellip;but it never saw the light of day.</p>
<p>Until now.</p>
<p>Judicial Watch sued and&nbsp;<a href="https://www.judicialwatch.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/CIA-Mena-Report.pdf">won the report&rsquo;s release</a>&mdash;but there&rsquo;s a hitch.</p>
<p><em>Sponsored:</em>&nbsp;<a href="https://pro.allianceforadvancedhealth.com/p/AAH_freebookautoplay_0618/WAAHW520/"><span><span>&ldquo;Forbidden&rdquo; book now available (claim yours now)</span></span></a></p>
<p>Most of its 73 pages are redacted, erased, or crossed out.</p>
<p>Still, what is visible brings interesting facts to light.</p>
<p>The CIA states that it had nothing to do with Barry Seal&mdash;except for a two-day stint when they paid him to repair airplanes they flew on another, totally innocent mission with the Defense Department.</p>
<p>What that routine training with the DoD entailed, they won&rsquo;t say.</p>
<p>But the document undercuts Clinton&rsquo;s statement that he knew &ldquo;zero&rdquo; about the goings-on at Mena. The CIA says that &ldquo;certain Arkansas state and local officials were informed.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Those with knowledge of the Arkansas government in the 1980s say it&rsquo;s unbelievable that Clinton didn&rsquo;t at least know about what really happened at Mena, whatever it was.</p>
<p>&ldquo;Bill Clinton likely knew a lot more than he has admitted,&rdquo; Judicial Watch says in a statement. &ldquo;We also learn there is a lot the government still does not want us to know.&rdquo;</p>
<p>In fact, Clinton&rsquo;s cronies are reportedly still avoiding investigators. Reporter Mara Leveritt said she personally read the Arkansas State Police&rsquo;s enormous file on Barry Seal years ago&mdash;but&nbsp;<a href="https://www.judicialwatch.org/investigative-bulletin/guns-drugs-cia-at-mena-arkansas-judicial-watch-demands-answers/">when she asked to review it a few years ago, it disappeared into thin air.</a></p>
<p>&ldquo;I knew the agency had an extensive file on Seal, because I&rsquo;d read it decades earlier, shortly after Seal&rsquo;s murder,&rdquo; she said.</p>
<p>Because of this kind of stonewalling, Judicial Watch is demanding the CIA come clean to the American public.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.judicialwatch.org/investigative-bulletin/mena-uncovered-judicial-watch-discloses-secret-cia-report/%20%20">&ldquo;The Mena Report should be declassified and released</a>,&rdquo; says Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. The public deserves answers to what really went on at Mena.&rdquo;</p>

<p><span><span><span>Revision September 26, 1995 Copyright 1996 by Robert C. Beck, D.Sc.</span></span></span></p>
<p><span><span>In a remarkable discovery at Albert Einstein College of Medicine, N.Y.C. in 1990, it was shown that a minute current (50 to 100 MICRO amperes) can alter outer protein layers of HIV virus in a petri dish so as to prevent its subsequent attachment to receptor sites. (SCIENCE NEWS, March 30, 1991 page 207.) It may also reverse Epstein Barr (chronic fatigue syndrome), hepatitis, and herpes B. HIV positive users of this enclosed information may expect a NEGATIVE p24 surface antigen or PCR test (no more HIV detectable in blood) after 30 days. This is reminiscent of a well proven cure for snakebite by application of electric current that instantly neutralizes the venom&rsquo;s toxicity. (LANCET, July 26, 1986, page 229.) And there may be several other as yet undiscovered or untested viruses neutralizable with this discovery.</span></span></p>
<p><span><span>This very simple blood clearing treatment offered great promise as a positive method for immobilizing known strains of HIV still present and contaminating some European and US blood bank reserve supplies. It was further suggested that infected human HIV carriers could be cured by removing their blood, treating it electrically and returning it by methods similar to dialysis. Dr. Steven Kaali, MD, projected that &ldquo;years of testing will be in order before such an</span></span><span>&nbsp;</span><span><span>in vitro</span></span><span>&nbsp;</span><span><span>(blood removed for treatment) device can be made ready for widespread use&rdquo; (LONGEVITY, Dec. 1992, page 14.) This paper reveals a &ldquo;do-it-yourself&rdquo; approach for healing&nbsp;</span></span><span><span>involving no medical costs</span></span><span>&nbsp;</span><span><span>or dialysis.</span></span></p>
<p><span><span>In the writer&rsquo;s opinion both blood and lymph can be cleared&nbsp;</span></span><span><span>in vitro</span></span><span>&nbsp;</span><span><span>(which means blood isn&rsquo;t removed) simply, rapidly, and inexpensively with similar but NON-INVASIVE techniques described herein. All are fully disclosed in this paper. This paper includes all necessary schematics, parts lists, and instructions. Electronic and controlled electroporation approaches may well make vaccines (even if possible someday), pharmaceuticals, supplements, oxygen and diet therapies, plus other proposed remedies obsolete, even if they worked and were free.</span></span></p>
<p><span><span>In a public lecture (Oct. 19, 1991) the writer&rsquo;s opinion proposed this theoretical do-it-yourself method for accomplishing HIV &ldquo;neutralization&rdquo;&nbsp;</span></span><span><span>in vivo</span></span><span><span>. Subsequently, his original modalities and protocols have been extensively peer reviewed, refined, simplified and made universally affordable (under $75 for&nbsp;</span></span><span><span>both&nbsp;</span></span><span><span>devices including batteries when self-made). These two simple treatments used in tandem can potentially nullify well over 95% (and perhaps 100%) of known HIV strains residing in&nbsp;</span></span><span><span>both</span></span><span>&nbsp;</span><span><span>blood, lymph, and other body tissue and fluids. Following is a summary of two years of offshore feedback with this non-iatrogenic, do-it yourself, simple and inexpensive experimental solution to the ever escalating AIDS dilemma. There are no known side effects since milliampere currents are much lower than those in FDA approved TENS, CES and muscle stimulators which have been in daily use for many years. Battery replacement costs are under 25&cent; per month per user or about 1&cent; per day for a typical 21 day &ldquo;spontaneous remission&rdquo;. No doctors, pharmaceuticals, ozone, or other intervention appears necessary.</span></span></p>
<p><a title="Blood Zappers" href="http://www.electrobiotics.com/Blood-Zappers" target="_blank"><img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="http://www.theopensource.tv/uploads/articles/f2988893.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="237" border="0" hspace="" vspace="" /></a></p>
<p><span><span>The pocket-sized, battery-powered,&nbsp;</span></span><span><span>blood</span></span><span>&nbsp;</span><span><span>clearing&nbsp;<a href="http://www.electrobiotics.com/Blood-Zappers" target="_blank">instrument</a>&nbsp;is basically a miniature relay driven by a timer chip set to ~0.67 Hertz. Its 0 to 36V user adjustable biphasic output minimizes electrode site irritation. The described system delivers stimulation through&nbsp;</span></span><span><span>normally circulating blood</span></span><span>&nbsp;</span><span><span>via electrodes placed at selected sites (such as one electrode behind ankle bone on inside of foot and another identically located on opposite foot) over the sural, popliteal, posterior tibial, or peronal arteries where the subjects&rsquo; veins and arteries are accessibly close to the surface. Optimum electrode positions are reliably located by feeling pulse. (Micro current treatment is of such low amplitude that it creates no discomfort when used as directed and is demonstrated to have no harmful side effects on healthy blood cells or tissue. A major obstacle to this simple and obvious solution is disbelief, and subjects must assume responsibility for their own health &mdash; a &ldquo;heresy&rdquo; in today&rsquo;s society where we&rsquo;re conditioned to look for answers only to a medical establishment that has no current knowledge remotely promising &ldquo;cures&rdquo; for numerous well known terminal diseases.</span></span></p>
<p><span><span>Using neutralization approximately 8 to 20 minutes per day for about three or four weeks should in the writer&rsquo;s opinion effectively immobilize well over 95% of any HIV and simultaneously any other electrosensitive viruses in blood. In heavy infections, shorter application times could prevent overloading patient with toxins. Simply treat for a greater number of days. In time, the restored immune system will handle residual problems. In the special case of impaired circulation due to diabetes, longer treatment times may be indicated. Immobilized viruses may be expelled naturally through kidneys and liver. More rapid neutralization is easily possible but not recommended because of potential excessive toxic elimination reactions. (Herxheimer&rsquo;s syndrome). T-cell counts may drop initially (because of lysing and subsequent scavenging by macrophages) but should recover to over 200 within 90 days.</span></span></p>
<p><span><span>Latent / germinating HIV reservoirs in the body&rsquo;s</span></span><span>&nbsp;</span><span><span>lymph</span></span><span>&nbsp;</span><span><span>or other tissue may theoretically be neutralized with a</span></span><span>&nbsp;</span><span><span>second&nbsp;</span></span><span><span>and separate device by the strategy of generating a very high intensity (~19 kilogauss) short duration (~10 &micro;S) magnetic pulse of &gt;35 joules by discharging a modified strobe light&rsquo;s capacitor through an applicator coil held at body points over lymph nodes and other possible internal sites of infection. By the physics of Eddy current / back emf &ldquo;transformer action&rdquo; (Lenz&rsquo; law) the desired criteria of minimum current induced through infected tissue on the order of 50 to 100 &micro;A should be readily attained. Several pulses repeated at each site may insure a reliable &ldquo;overkill&rdquo; for successful HIV neutralization. A magnetic &ldquo;pulser&rdquo; is very inexpensive and simple to build.</span></span></p>

<p><strong><span><span><span>Expanded Instructions for Experimental / Theoretical HIV Blood Neutralization:&nbsp;Hypothetical Protocols for Experimental Sessions</span></span></span></strong><span><br /><span><span>Revision Dec. 18, 1995.</span></span></span></p>
<p><span><span>Precautions:</span></span><span>&nbsp;</span><span><span>Do&nbsp;</span></span><span><span>not</span></span><span>&nbsp;</span><span><span>use on subjects with cardiac pacemakers. Any applied electrical signals may interfere with &ldquo;demand&rdquo; type heart pacers and cause malfunction. Do&nbsp;</span></span><span><span>not&nbsp;</span></span><span><span>use on pregnant women, while driving or using hazardous machinery.</span></span></p>
<p><span><span>Users&nbsp;</span></span><span><span>must&nbsp;</span></span><span><span>avoid ingesting anything containing medicinal herbs, foreign or domestic, or potentially toxic medication, nicotine, alcohol, recreational drugs, laxatives, tonics, etc., and certain vitamins for one week before starting because blood electrification can cause electroporation which makes cell membranes pervious to small quantities of normally harmless chemicals in plasma. The effect is the same as extreme overdosing which might be lethal. See Electroporation: a General Phenomenon for Manipulating Cells and Tissues; J.C. Weaver, Journal of Cellular Biochemistry 51:426-435 (1993). Effects can mimic increasing dosages many fold. Both the magnetic pulser and blood purifier cause electroporation.</span></span></p>
<p><span><span>Do&nbsp;</span></span><span><span>not</span></span><span>&nbsp;</span><span><span>place electrode pads over skin lesions, abrasions, new scars, cuts, eruptions, or sunburn. Do&nbsp;</span></span><span><span>not&nbsp;</span></span><span><span>advance output amplitude to uncomfortable levels. All subjects will vary. Do&nbsp;</span></span><span><span>not</span></span><span>&nbsp;</span><span><span>fall asleep while using.</span></span></p>
<p><span><span>Do&nbsp;</span></span><span><span>not</span></span><span>&nbsp;</span><span><span>place electrodes above waist. (</span></span><span><span>See Exceptions</span></span><span><span>.) Generally use only on feet so as to minimize possible current paths through unhealthy heart. The magnetic pulser should, however, be safe to use anywhere on body or head. Avoid ingesting alcohol 24 hours before using. Drink an 8 oz. glass of distilled water 15 minutes before and immediately following each session and drink at least four additional glasses daily for flushing during &ldquo;neutralization&rdquo; and for one week thereafter. This is imperative. Ignoring this can cause systemic damage.</span></span></p>
<p><span><span>If subject feels sluggish, faint, dizzy, headachy, nauseous, or has flu-like symptoms after exposures, reduce number of pulses per session and/or shorten applications of blood clearing. Use caution when treating patients with impaired kidney or liver function.</span></span></p>
<p><span><span>To avoid shock liability, use batteries only. Do&nbsp;</span></span><span><span>not&nbsp;</span></span><span><span>use any line-connected power supply, transformer, charger, battery eliminator, etc. with blood clearing device. &nbsp;Line supplies&nbsp;</span></span><span><span>are okay</span></span><span>&nbsp;</span><span><span>with well-insulated magnetic pulse generators (strobe lights).</span></span></p>
<p><span><span>Health professionals &mdash; Avoid nicotine addicts, vegetarians, and other unconsciously motivated death-wishers and their covert agendas of &ldquo;defeat the healer&rdquo;. Tobacco, the most addictive (4-H times more addictive than heroin) and deadly substance of abuse known, disrupts normal cardiovascular function. True vegetarian diets are missing essential amino acids absolutely necessary for the successful rebuilding of AIDS-ravaged tissues. Secondary gains (sympathy / martyrdom, free benefits, financial assistance, etc.) play large roles with AIDS patients. &ldquo;Recovery guilt&rdquo; as friends are dying has even precipitated suicide attempts masked as &ldquo;accidents&rdquo;. Avoid such entanglements.</span></span></p>
<p><span><span><strong>Electrode Placement:</strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;</span></span><span>&nbsp;</span><span><span>Locate&nbsp;</span></span><span><span>maximum</span></span><span>&nbsp;</span><span><span>pulse position (</span></span><span><span>not</span></span><span>&nbsp;</span><span><span>to be confused with acupuncture, reflexology, Chapman, etc. points) on each foot by feeling on inside of ankle ~1&Prime; below and to rear of ankle bone, then feel top center of instep. Place electrode on whichever pulse site on that foot that feels strongest. Scrub skin over chosen sites with mild soap and water or alcohol swab. Wipe dry. Position the electrodes lengthwise along each left and right foot&rsquo;s blood vessel. We presently prefer foot-to-foot electrode placements which will encompass about five times the volume of circulating blood undergoing pathogen neutralization compared to the earlier foot-to-back-of-same-knee placements originally suggested in our 1991 paper. Note: with subjects having perfectly healthy hearts and not wearing pacers, it is convenient to use left wrist to right wrist exactly over ulnar arterial pulse paths instead of feet. Wide rubber bands over wires at elbows keep leads out of the way when using hands. With electrode cable unplugged, turn switch ON and advance amplitude control to</span></span><span>&nbsp;</span><span><span>maximum.&nbsp;</span></span><span>&nbsp;</span><span><span>Push momentary SW. 2 &ldquo;Test&rdquo; switch and see that the red and green light emitting diodes flash alternately. This verifies that polarity is reversing ~4 times per second (frequency is&nbsp;</span></span><span><span>not</span></span><span>&nbsp;</span><span><span>critical) and that batteries are still good. If LED&rsquo;s don&rsquo;t light, replace all three 9V batteries. When the white incandescent bulb dims or appears yellowish, or relay isn&rsquo;t clicking, replace all four AA cells. Zener diodes will extinguish LEDs when the three 9V battery&rsquo;s initial 27V drops below 18V after extended use. If subject has a perfectly healthy heart, wrist-to-wrist placement is more convenient. Never use any electrode larger than 1-J&rdquo; long by J&rdquo; wide to avoid wasting current on surrounding tissue. Confine exactly to blood vessels&nbsp;</span></span><span><span>only</span></span><span><span>. Add a drop of salt water to each electrode&rsquo;s cotton cover ~every 10 minutes to keep electrodes thoroughly saturated during entire session.</span></span></p>
<p><span><span>Now rotate amplitude control to&nbsp;</span></span><span><span>minimum</span></span><span>&nbsp;</span><span><span>(counter-clockwise) and plug in electrode cable. Subject now advances dial slowly until he feels a &ldquo;thumping&rdquo; and tingling. Turn as high as tolerable but don&rsquo;t advance amplitude to where it is ever uncomfortable. Adjust voltage periodically as he adapts or acclimates to current level after several minutes. If subject perspires, skin resistance may decrease because of moisture, so setting to a lower voltage for comfort is indicated. Otherwise It is normal to feel progressively less sensation with time. You may notice little or no sensation at full amplitude immediately, but feeling will begin building up to maximum after several minutes at which time amplitude must be decreased. Typical adapted electrode-to-electrode impedance is on the order of 2000W. Typical comfortable input (to skin) is ~3mA, and maximum tolerable input (full amplitude) is ~7 mA but this &ldquo;reserve&rdquo; limit is unnecessary and uncomfortable Current flowing through blood is very much lower than this&nbsp;</span></span><span><span>external</span></span><span>&nbsp;</span><span><span>measurement because of series resistances through skin, tissue and blood vessel walls.</span></span></p>
<p><span><span>Apply blood neutralizer for about an hour daily for 21-30 days. Use judgment here. Carefully monitor subject&rsquo;s reactions. For very heavy infections, go slower so as not to overload body&rsquo;s toxic disposal capability. With circulation-impaired diabetics, etc., you may wish to extend session times up to 90 minutes to two hours. Again,</span></span><span>&nbsp;</span><span><span>have the subject drink lots of water.</span></span><span>&nbsp;</span><span><span>You may be overexposing if post treatment discomfort is felt.</span></span></p>
<p><span><span>Subjects may feel sleepy, sluggish, listless, nauseous, faint or headachy, or have flu-like reactions if neglecting sufficient water intake for flushing toxins. We interpret this as detoxification plus endorphin release due to electrification. Let them rest and stabilize for ~45 minutes before driving if indicated. If this detoxing becomes oppressive, treat every&nbsp;</span></span><span><span>second&nbsp;</span></span><span><span>day. Treating at least 21 times should &ldquo;fractionate&rdquo; both juvenile and maturing HIV to overlap maximum neutralization sensitivity windows and interrupt &ldquo;budding&rdquo; occurring during the HIV cells&rsquo; development cycles. Treatments also safely neutralize many other viruses, fungi, bacteria, parasites, and microbes in blood. See US patents # 5,091,152 5,139,684 5,188,738 5,328,451 and others as well as numerous valid medical studies which are presently little known or suppressed. Ingesting a few oz. of 5 to 20 parts per million of silver colloid solution daily can give subjects a &ldquo;second intact immune system&rdquo; and minimize or eliminate opportunistic infections during recovery phase. This miracle substance is pre-1938 technology, and unlike ozone is considered immune from FDA harassment. Silver colloid can EASILY be made at home electrolytically in minutes and in any desired quantities and parts per million strength for under 1&cent; per gallon plus cost of distilled water. It is ridiculous to purchase it for high prices. Colloid has no side effects, and is known to rapidly eliminate or prevent hundreds of diseases. Silver colloids won&rsquo;t produce drug resistant strains as will all other known antibiotics. No reasonable amount can overdose or injure users either topically, by ingestion, or medical professional injection.</span></span></p>
<p><strong><span><span><span>Suggestions for Acquiring and Using an Inductively Coupled Magnetic Pulse Generator for Theoretical Lymph and Tissue HIV Neutralization</span></span></span></strong><span><br /><span><span>Revision December 18, 1995.</span></span><br /><span><span><strong>Note:</strong>&nbsp;These data are for informational and instructional purposes only and are not to be construed as medical advice. Consult with your licensed health practitioner.</span></span></span></p>
<p><span><span>To use</span></span><span><span>, press fully insulated coil flat against body over lymph glands and other selected locations such as shown on page 11. Let strobe build up to full charge (about 10 seconds or longer between pulses) and fire coil while contacting each site. Subjects will feel no physical sensations except for light &ldquo;thumps&rdquo; during this phase of treatment. Exposure levels are considered safe because intensity of this magnetic pulser is much lower than Magnetic Nuclear Resonance Imaging in routine use on tens of thousands of patients. But should subject feel &ldquo;headachy&rdquo;, nauseous, sluggish, or display flu-like symptoms after exposures with either of these two devices, reduce number of pulses or duration of blood clearing process and drink more water. If immune system is very badly damaged, you may need to repeat all routines after several months to insure permanent and complete neutralization.</span></span><span>When using, keep coil several feet away from credit cards, watches, magnetic tape, computers, floppy disks, homeopathic remedies, etc.</span><span><span>, since its powerful magnetic field can de-gauss and erase magnetic data as well as subtle energy potentized medicines. As an unanticipated serendipity, pulsers are reported to erase deeply rooted lymph and tissue pathology and possibly even classical &ldquo;miasma&rsquo;s&rdquo; as well as many other microbes, fungi, bacteria, parasites, and viruses. Flash should preferably be used with AC power to save battery costs since you&rsquo;ll only get about 40 full pulses per new set of alkaline batteries. For sanitary purposes, enclose coil in plastic zip-lock sandwich bag discarded after each user. When treating numerous subjects if there&rsquo;s no AC adapter it is economical to purchase and utilize a small rechargeable 6V lead-acid &ldquo;motorcycle&rdquo; type storage battery.</span></span></p>

   <title>HOW TO REMOTE VIEW</title>
   <link>https://www.theopensource.tv/articles/how-to-remote-view_78.html</link>
   <description><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.theopensource.tv/uploads/articles/07335029.jpg" rel="prettyPhoto[phpmelody]"><img src="http://www.theopensource.tv/uploads/articles/07335029.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="281" border="0" hspace="" vspace="" /></a></p>
<p>Remote viewing is a mind-body discipline. After exploring the in-depth research behind&nbsp;<a href="https://www.gaia.com/article/what-is-remote-viewing" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">remote viewing</a>, you may be interested in trying a session yourself. Learn how to hold a viewing session and interpret the results, as well as consider the consequences of accessing non-local information.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.gaia.com/video/unlocking-your-potential-remote-viewing-lyn-buchanan" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Remote Viewing (RV)</a>&nbsp;is probably going to feel very different from anything you&rsquo;ve ever done before. That&rsquo;s because it&rsquo;s all about learning to unblock your feelings, hunches and intuitive glimpses. People like musicians and artists, those who are trained to go with the the flow, are more familiar with the creative process and tend to feel more comfortable with it. RV involves letting going of your preconceived ideas about what you are perceiving and instead, just going with the flow of things.</p>
<h2>BE A PSYCHIC DETECTIVE</h2>
<p>Remote viewing involves a paradox: the more confident you feel during a session, the less likely you are to be accurate. What this means is that during an RV session, you&rsquo;re acting like a psychic detective, looking for clues within your own awareness for something you can&rsquo;t physically see or touch. Your conscious mind will probably tell you that it won&rsquo;t work. But it&rsquo;s wrong: It does work.</p>
<p>During an RV session, our conscious minds, which usually act like they know what&rsquo;s going on at every moment, have to surrender to the unknown. Our conscious minds like hard, concrete information: RV signals tend to be soft. Our conscious minds like certainty: RV sessions are the embodiment of uncertainty. Our conscious minds like to be right, as much as possible: while doing RV, we have no idea if we are right or not. And often after getting to see our feedback picture, we&rsquo;ll see a lot that we missed. And things we made up that aren&rsquo;t there.</p>
<p>RV is really a big ego buster. It&rsquo;s humbling for your conscious mind to accept that it&rsquo;s not as good as your subtle mind at this task, but it will get used to it. You just have to accept the idea that there are no bad RV sessions, if you learn something about yourself every time you do one.</p>
<p>And your conscious mind also has to learn to get together with your unconscious mind: the one who has access to non-local information. Believe me, it&rsquo;s a really profound learning experience to find out that your conscious mind, who feels like it&rsquo;s in control of your waking life, can only go so far before it has to hand off it&rsquo;s job to another part of your awareness, your non-local self.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>The first step in learning to be good at RV is letting go of the need to be right all the time.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>This is a big deal for many of us but it&rsquo;s good for you: you learn more when you&rsquo;re wrong about something than when you&rsquo;re right, and RV is no different.</p>
<p>Just so you know, there are many different styles of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.gaia.com/video/secrets-remote-viewing-ed-dames" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">remote viewing</a>, the main branches being Controlled Remote Viewing (CRV) and Extended Remote Viewing (ERV). The difference between these two styles is that CRV originates from psychic Ingo Swann and is a written protocol with defined stages. ERV on the other hand is an earlier system that is more like stream of thought and doesn&rsquo;t necessarily require pen and paper: you can use a digital or tape recorder to record your impressions. I&rsquo;m not aware of any evidence that suggests that one system is more accurate than another. However, I learned the CRV system so my ideas stem from that line of thinking.</p>
<p>Now it&rsquo;s quite possible that you are a natural psychic and already have your own system for viewing. Just stick with what works for you. There&rsquo;s no right or wrong here. But if you&rsquo;ve never done anything like this before, you can follow the steps below.</p>
<h2>HOW TO BEGIN REMOTE VIEWING</h2>
<p>The first thing that you want to do is find a quiet place where you won&rsquo;t be distracted. RV is not so much a mental process as a sensing protocol. You use your awareness to become aware of your entire body and what its feeling. It&rsquo;s not just about mental concentration.</p>
<p>But the first step is to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.gaia.com/video/becoming-remote-viewer-paul-smith" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">quiet your mind</a>&nbsp;in any way that suits you. It&rsquo;s called a cool down period. During an RV session, you want as little mental noise as possible.</p>
<h3>HAVE SOMEONE ELSE SELECT A RANGE OF TARGETS</h3>
<p>What you&rsquo;re going to need to practice are some picture targets chosen for you in advance by a friend or a helper. These should be pictures cut from magazines and pasted on sheets of blank, white paper, perhaps ten or so, one picture per sheet. Pictures of people, architecture, nature, and travel are often good choices. Don&rsquo;t pick a target picture that may be offensive or disturbing to the viewer.</p>
<p>The target pictures should be of real world objects, events, or places, not computer graphics. Have your friend stack them in a manilla envelope face down and say absolutely nothing about them to you. You&rsquo;ll view them one at a time, getting feedback after each session from the facedown target at the top of the pile.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>The main idea behind RV is to increase your sensitivity to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.gaia.com/video/remote-viewing-and-collective-consciousness-marty-rosenblatt" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">unconscious information that you already have available to you</a>. And that&rsquo;s a lot of information.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Studies show that we have over 20 million bits of information from our physical senses each second. (And that&rsquo;s not counting non-local RV-type information). But we are consciously aware of only 16 bits. That&rsquo;s a loss of more than 99.999 percent of the information that we could have access too. The information is still there, but it&rsquo;s buried in our unconscious mind. Your job is to make sense of it and write it down before your conscious mind interferes in some way.</p>
<p>The goal of RV or any type of psychic activity is to become&nbsp;<a href="https://www.gaia.com/video/practical-uses-remote-viewing-paul-smith" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">more sensitive to the really subtle information</a>: to access it without distorting it. You&rsquo;re accessing a hidden channel of non-local information that is normally not available to you consciously.</p>
<p>One way to practice this during the day is to see how much sensory information you can describe in your immediate environment, as accurately as possible. You may think you know what&rsquo;s in your surroundings, but it if really take a look, you&rsquo;ll see it&rsquo;s more varied than you imagined. There are more shades of colors, more patterns, more contrasts than your conscious mental image contains.</p>
<p>That&rsquo;s because most of the sensory information you experience each moment is generated by your brain, about 80 percent to be exact. Only about twenty percent of your perceived sensory information is coming from outside you. The rest is created by your physical mind to save energy and time: it&rsquo;s making its best guess about what&rsquo;s going on around you based on a&nbsp;<a href="http://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2015/03/for-a-more-creative-brain-travel/388135/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">small sampling of the environment</a>. What you think you&rsquo;re seeing is actually a hallucination of sorts.</p>
<p>An example of this are the saccades that your eyes constantly make: the small flitting motions that your eyes exhibit about three times a second. They&rsquo;re constantly scanning your environment with small, jumpy motions. But your brain edits this out for you and so when you look around, things seem still. Even if you look at your eyes in a mirror you won&rsquo;t see the saccades, they&rsquo;re edited out from your consciousness.</p>
<p>So, when you&rsquo;re practicing viewing, you&rsquo;re attempting to describe very subtle information that is much weaker than your conscious perceptions. If you&rsquo;re describing a photo target, and the image in your mind is 3D and very colorful, you&rsquo;re probably making it up! True RV impressions are very subtle, fleeting, and transient. Many people don&rsquo;t ever &ldquo;see&rdquo; anything while they&rsquo;re viewing. They may just get sensory impressions without knowing how they got them. The main thing is to write it down before the information disappears into your mind&rsquo;s deletion trash bin.</p>
<p>After &ldquo;cooling down&rdquo; for a few minutes, write down the date, time and any ideas you want to let go of that may distract you while viewing. Then you want to begin the session by describing the most basic impressions you have of the target site, event, or person. What do you feel is the predominant thing in the target. Is it natural or artificial? Land, water? Motion or energy? Pick one or two of these descriptors and write them down.</p>
<h2>DON&rsquo;T SECOND GUESS YOURSELF</h2>
<p>The main thing is not to second guess yourself. Write down the first thing that comes to your mind. The fainter, the better. Just make sure you write down the information as descriptively as possible and don&rsquo;t judge anything. Remember, your job is to describe, not define, what&rsquo;s going on at the target site.</p>
<p>The information isn&rsquo;t just coming from your mind, it&rsquo;s coming from your autonomic nervous system too. The idea is that your unconscious already knows everything there is to know about the target, it just has to communicate that to your conscious mind. It does that through your body with very subtle sensations and feelings and that take time.</p>
<p>After a few minutes, proceed to describe basic sensory information, like visuals, smells, tastes and temperatures. Then you may start perceiving sizes, shapes and patterns. What viewers call&nbsp;<em>Dimensionals</em>. You may even start to feel an emotional reaction to the target. Just make sure not to omit anything. Loud, persistent images are most likely mental noise. Write that info down too, just make sure you note that it is probably analysis on your part and not coming from the the target.</p>
<p>Eventually, you&rsquo;ll want to draw sketch. Take your time and don&rsquo;t worry about how your sketch looks. Finally, imagine yourself floating several hundred feet over the target area. Is there anything surprising about the target that you can perceive? Make a note of your final impressions about the target. Then write down the time, finish your session, and write a few sentence summary of what you perceived. Look over everything your wrote down as you might have forgotten about it by now.</p>
<p>When you&rsquo;re ready, pull out the top photo from the envelope and see how you did! This is called &ldquo;getting your feedback.&rdquo; You might surprise yourself with how much you got right. Take your time to really look at the colors, shapes, and other descriptors. You might see aspects of the target that are apparent in your session only after some careful inspection of everything wrote down. But if you didn&rsquo;t get anything in the photo, don&rsquo;t despair. The main point of RV is to learn about yourself, not just to be accurate. It can take some time before you make a big breakthrough. But when it happens, it might just come as a shock to you that it works. And don&rsquo;t overdo it either, you want this to stay fun to get the best results in the long run.</p>
<p>Around fifteen years ago I was lucky enough to take some seminars with the late Beverly Jaegers of the U.S. PSI Squad who often helped law enforcement all over the United States in hundreds of missing persons cases. They had a success rate somewhere near eighty percent but never took any credit for helping. Beverly, author of the hands on &ldquo;how to&rdquo; book&nbsp;<em>The Psychic Paradigm</em>, was a highly talented, self-taught psychic whom you might have seen on TV. She excelled at Psychometry, or detecting non-local information merely by touching an object associated with it.</p>
<p>One time, when I was working on a practice target at a seminar with her, she came over to me and asked me what I was perceiving about the target. It was a description of a vehicle but I hadn&rsquo;t written it down: Beverly told me write it down and then said to me in a loud voice: &ldquo;Don&rsquo;t second guess yourself!&rdquo; My description turned out to be a very accurate one of the suspect&rsquo;s vehicle in the arson case she had given us. All we had been allowed to do at the beginning of the session was touch the outside of an envelope containing some physical evidence.</p>
<h2>DETACH FROM THE OUTCOME</h2>
<p>Another beautiful paradox of the RV process is that the more you&rsquo;re detached from the outcome of the session, the better you&rsquo;ll do. In other words, if you just do the session for the fun of it or for the challenge of describing your perceptions as thoroughly and accurately as possible, your session will be more accurate than if you&rsquo;re worried whether your data are right or not.</p>
<p>Growing up in the educational systems that most of us did, we&rsquo;re concerned with being right and defending our ideas with facts. But you can&rsquo;t do that during RV, so you just have to let go and do your best. Because as long as you&rsquo;re attempting to use our &ldquo;senseless&rdquo; senses you&rsquo;ll be making progress. You&rsquo;re accessing a new communications systems that may have been dormant for quite a while, so be patient with yourself.</p>
<p>Resist the urge to feel excited if you make good target contact or dejected if you miss. The point is get in touch your internal communication systems and get&nbsp;<a href="https://www.gaia.com/video/remote-viewing-and-influencing" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">better at decoding it</a>. You can&rsquo;t learn this overnight just like you can&rsquo;t learn to play a musical instrument without lots of practice. But if you persist through your viewing sessions, no matter what the outcome, some amazing experiences await you. Everyone is different, so you&rsquo;ll have to let me know how this process affects your personal, cognitive, and spiritual development. But for most people I know, eventually something profound happens and you just feel expanded and more in touch with what&rsquo;s going on inside and around you.</p>
<p>One book I can highly recommend is&nbsp;<em>Explorers of the Infinite: The Secret Lives of Extreme Athletes</em>&nbsp;by Maria Coffey. It&rsquo;s not about RV per se, but more about the spontaneous awareness and intuitive flashes of insight that come to people, or those close to them, involved in extreme sports and adventure activities. It&rsquo;s uncanny how people participating in difficult, challenging situations tap deeply into their intuitions and get precognitive information about what they&rsquo;re about to encounter on a climb to a mountain top or deep in the wilderness. It shows us that these abilities are built into us yet they need some coaxing to be fully activated.</p>
<p>It&rsquo;s really important to remember that you are already as&nbsp;<a href="https://www.gaia.com/video/developing-your-intuitive-senses-mariana-cooper" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">psychic as you need to be</a>.You don&rsquo;t need to be more psychic than you already are but you can learn to be more mindful and attentive at every moment. Being psychic also means being more sensitive and that comes with a price. If you become too sensitive to your environment or perceptions, you may feel overwhelmed. Many natural psychics suffer from health issues. Others only attained their highly-accurate abilities after a major accident or traumatic event. So you don&rsquo;t need to be more psychic: the point of RV practice is be a more integrated, perceptive and balanced, not to be able to predict tomorrow&rsquo;s lottery numbers, unless that&rsquo;s really your highest joy.</p>
<p>Highly-accurate, natural psychics are extremely rare. However, everyone has this ability to some degree or another, so it&rsquo;s worth practicing just to surprise yourself and find out more about who you are. And to show yourself some&nbsp;<a href="https://www.gaia.com/video/jim-channon-psychic-spies-and-remote-viewing" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">incontrovertible evidence</a>&nbsp;that some part of you is, in some hidden way, intrinsically connected to everything else in the universe.</p>

<p><span><span><span><strong>In 1976, Walter White, Jr.,</strong></span></span><span><span>&nbsp;</span></span></span><span><span><span><span>"a concerned patriot," conducted an interview with a young Jew named Harold Rosenthal who was an assistant to Sen.

This is best exemplified by the Freemasons. Their motto of "making good men better" produces a far more favorable public image than the more accurate alternative: "how to become demon-possessed in 33-easy-steps." The Jewish and Masonic religions both worship the same god- Lucifer.<br /></span><span><br /></span></span></span><span><span><strong>BRIGHT LIGHT</strong></span></span><span><span><br /><br /><span>In most Jewish synagogues, a bright burning flame represents their god. The Hebrew word for Lucifer is "Hillel" (Strong's Concordance&nbsp;#H1966) meaning "bright light." Curiously, this is the name chosen for the Jewish student organization. A central text in Cabalism is entitled "the Zohar," which translates to the book of brightness or splendour.</span></span></span></span></p>
<p><span><span><span>The Jewish six-pointed star is the highest symbol in the occult and goes by various names--the Star of Moloch/Saturn/Chiun/Remphan. It is a symbol of the union of male and female and is identical in meaning to the Masonic square and compass, which is also a six-pointed symbol around the letter "G" representing the generative sexual act. In place of the "G" we find יהוה amidst many Jewish stars.</span></span></span></p>
<p><span><span><span>The Hebrew symbol חי worn around the necks of many Jews ostensibly symbolizes "life" (lachaim). The word literally translates to a "living thing" or "beast" (H2416); this symbol is an idol for The Beast.</span></span></span></p>
<p><span><span><span>The Jewish name for god is represented by the tetragrammaton יהוה (YHVH) can be pronounced Yahweh or Jehovah. The significance of God's name is repeatedly emphasized throughout the scriptures.</span></span></span></p>
<p><span><span><span>When dissected in the Hebrew, the true definition of Jehovah (Yah-Hovah) is revealed. "Yah" (#H3050) means "god". "Hovah" (#H1942) translates to "eagerly coveting, falling, desire, ruin, calamity, iniquity, mischief, naughtiness, noisome, perverse, very wickedness."</span></span></span></p>
<p><span><span><img class="mt-image-left" style="float: left;" src="http://www.henrymakow.com/upload_images/baal-worship.jpg" alt="baal-worship.jpg" width="400" height="288" /><span>Jehovah is synonymous with Baal:</span>&nbsp;<span>"Baali (#H1180) From ba'al with pron. Suff.; my master; Baali, a symbolical name for Jehovah -- Baali."</span></span></span></p>
<p><span><span><span>The&nbsp;<em>Jewish Encyclopedia</em>&nbsp;("Adonai and Ba'al") reveals: "The name Ba'al , apparently as an equivalent for Yhwh."</span><br /><span>Since the days of Jeremiah, the Jews have forgotten their god's name and replaced it with the title "Baal" or "YHVH": The lying prophets "Which think to cause my people to forget my [God's]name...as their fathers have forgotten my name for Baal." (Jer 23:27).</span></span></span></p>
<p><span><span><span>YHVH and Ba'al both represent the god of sexual perversion and wickedness, Satan.</span>&nbsp;</span></span><span><span>&nbsp;<span>The&nbsp;<em>Jewish Encyclopedia</em>&nbsp;continues:&nbsp;</span></span></span></p>
<p><span><span><span>"The chief evil arose from the fact that the Ba'als were more than mere religious fantasies. They were made the symbols of the reproductive powers of nature, and thus their worship ministered to sexual indulgences, which it at the same time legalized and encouraged. Further, there was placed side by side with the Ba'al a corresponding female symbol, the Ashtoreth (Babyl. "Ashtar") and the relation between the two deities was set forth as the example and the motive of unbridled sensuality. The evil became all the worse when in the popular view Yhwh himself was regarded as one of the Ba'als and the chief of them (Hosea ii. 16).&nbsp;</span></span></span>"<span><span>Baal and Baal Worship,"&nbsp;<em>The Jewish Encyclopedia,&nbsp;</em>p.380</span>&nbsp;<span>&nbsp;(See also, Makow-<a href="http://www.henrymakow.com/kabbalah-how-sex-became-our-religion.html"><em>Cabala-How Sex&nbsp;<span>B</span>ecame Our Religion</em></a>)</span></span></p>
<p><span><span><span>However, Jews claim that this name (YHVH) is not to be spoken aloud, despite God's command to declare His name throughout the earth (Exo 9:16). Why ignore this commandment?</span></span></span></p>
<p><span><span><strong>UTTERING GOD'S NAME</strong></span></span><span><span><span>&nbsp;</span></span></span><span><br /></span></p>
<span><span>Judaism claims to be the authority on the Old Testament; however they do not practice what they preach. They dress in black, the color of death, in spite of the scriptural precept to wear white (Ecc 9:8), reject Christ as Messiah (who is prophesied throughout the Old Testament) and refuse to speak "God's name" in violation of the scriptures.</span><br /><br /><span>By reverencing their name of God (YHVH) by not speaking it, Jews create an air of mystery and holiness around the name while enhancing the curiosity surrounding its pronunciation and power. When curious Jews and non-Jews alike see the "sacred" tetragrammaton being used in occult practice, they are intrigued by the prospective that these sorcerers have harnessed the mystical powers of the name.<br /><br />Wicca, Satanism, Tarot, occult Catholicism, Masonry and Cabalism use their knowledge of the "sacred name of god" as bait to recruit cult members. If the name were not hidden, these cults would lack a critical tool in their recruitment processes. They could not offer this forbidden knowledge if the Jews, the self-proclaimed authority on God, spoke this name openly.</span><br /><br /><span>The mystery religions and witchcraft covens owe a great debt to Judaism for conditioning the mainstream to accept the importance and secrecy of this name. The vocal praise of the name YHVH is reserved for the "elect" who learn the Cabala (and pay money to do so) and is forbidden by the "profane." Judaic doctrine is fundamental to selling the occult as a righteous practice.<br /><br />Satan is the author of confusion and goes by many names. Many of the ancient pagan deities were Satan and his angels in other forms (<em>"The Two Babylons,"</em>&nbsp;by A. Hislop). The Jews employ a number of false names for god in their rituals, which are also alternate titles for Satan and other powerful demons.<br /><br />In the same manner, the Black Magician and Satanist invokes demons by name. In the Satanic Bible, Anton LaVey (Jewish) provides an extensive list of "infernal names" that, when summoned, provide the practitioner with super human abilities namely intelligence, power, skills in manipulation, enhanced creativity, material wealth, and the satisfaction of diverse lusts.</span></span><br />
<p><span><span><strong>PRAYER</strong></span></span></p>
<p><span><span>Jewish prayers are conducted in Yiddish, a composite language far from the intended pronunciation of the original Hebrew (A.C. Hitchcock,&nbsp;<em>"The Synagogue of Satan,"</em>&nbsp;1). The prayers in modern synagogues are nothing more than disguised demonic invocations. They are hypnotic spells, similar to the Enochian language of the Church of Satan.<br /><br /><img class="mt-image-left" style="float: left;" src="http://www.henrymakow.com/upload_images/bar-mitzvah-ceremony.jpg" alt="bar-mitzvah-ceremony.jpg" width="300" height="200" />Young Jews spend countless hours preparing for their Bar Mitzvah, which consists of memorizing long chants and proper cadence and tone. Most who complete the Bar Mitzvah will not be able to translate more than a handful of words. These young men and women have no idea what they are saying or to whom they are praying. Jews are invoking demons named adonai, elohim, el shaddai, zeba'ot, diyenu (Diana) et al in their rituals.<br /><br />Vain repetitions and head-bobbing during Jewish prayers aid the entrance into a trance state. Large numbers of atheistic Jews engage in the pseudo-religious worship of status and knowledge.&nbsp;</span><br /><br /><span>As Bill Cooper writes, "The WORSHIP (a lot different from STUDY) of knowledge, science, or technology is Satanism in its purest form, and its god is Lucifer" (<em>"Behold A Pale Horse,</em>" 70). Judaism fills its members with the same Satanic powers as the Church of Satan and Freemasonry.</span><span><br /><br /></span></span><span><span><strong>CABALISM</strong></span></span><span><span><br /><span><br /><span>The foundation of Cabalism is identical to Satanism: the reversal of the roles of God and Satan. It is the pursuit of hidden (occult) knowledge which allows one to achieve god-like abilities by calling on the so-called names of god. These are the names of fallen angels/demons/spirit guides who are the gatekeepers to occult knowledge (Gen 6:4, Jubilees, Enoch). While not all Jews actively practice Cabala, they all accept the highest Cabalistic name as their god--YHVH.<br /><br />The infamous Cabalist and Satanist Aleister Crowley writes, "There are thus 72 'Angels'...these [names] are derived from the "Great Name of God"...The "Name" is Tetragrammaton: I.H.V.H., commonly called Jehovah. He is the Supreme Lord of...the whole Universe<span>&nbsp;<span>(</span></span></span></span></span></span><span><span><em>"<span>The Book of Thoth,"</span></em></span></span><span><span><span>&nbsp;43). A number of other secret pronunciations of YHVH are used in the occult in addition to Yahweh and Jehovah.</span><span><br /><br /></span><span><span>"Of the 54 sacred names in the Jewish kabbalah, the primary one is YHWH" (R. Hathaway</span>&nbsp;</span></span></span><span><span><em><span>"Sacred Name of God? Or Blasphemy,"</span>&nbsp;</em></span></span><span><span><span><a href="http://remnantradio.org/Archives/articles/sacred_name.htm" target="_blank">remnantradio.org/Archives/articles/sacred_name.htm</a>).<br /><br />The Jewish creed, the Shema, states: "our Lord is One," so why invoke these other names?&nbsp;</span><br /><br /></span></span><span><span><strong>DEMONOLOGY</strong></span></span><span><span><br /><br /><span>The secret of the ancient Egyptians, and their modern disciples, the Freemasons, is the art of demonology for gaining power--mainly through the devil, Jehovah.&nbsp;</span></span></span></p>
<p><span><span><span>In the Royal Arch degree, the Freemason " acknowledge[s] that the devil, in the guise of Jahbuhlun, is his sacred Lord"--the name Jahbulun being a "composite of Jahweh, Baal, and Osiris." He chants "Jah-buh-lun, Jah-buh-lun, Jah-buh-lun, Je-hov-ah" (Texe Marrs,&nbsp;<em>Codex Magica</em>, Ch. 4). Albert Pike discusses the Cabalistic/Masonic significance of IAHOVAH in great length in<em>&nbsp;Morals &amp; Dogma</em>&nbsp;(66, 213, 401, 467, 519).</span><span><br /></span></span></span><img style="border: 0; float: right;" src="http://www.theopensource.tv/uploads/articles/a4b346d2.jpg" alt="" width="248" height="327" border="0" hspace="" vspace="" /><span><span><br /><span>The name YHVH was injected into the text of the Old Testament by the Pharisees and others who practiced Babylonian Satanism (the precursor to Cabalism and Talmudism). For those who don't believe the Talmud is Satanic it proclaims that Christ is in Hell boiling in excrement and semen (Gittin, 56b,57a).</span></span></span></p>
<p><span><span><span><span>An agreement was forged between the Jewish Masoretes and the Catholic Church c. 1000 A.D. to change the name of God in the Hebrew Old Testament to the pagan name Yahweh/Jehovah via the tetragrammaton (<a href="http://remnantradio.org/Archives/articles/sacred_name.htm" target="_blank">remnantradio.org/Archives/articles/sacred_name.htm</a>).&nbsp;</span><br /></span><br /><span>This explains Rosenthal's saying, "We are amazed by the Christians' stupidity in receiving our teachings and propagating them as their own."<br /><br />In Henry Ford's words, "The Christian cannot read his Bible except through Jewish spectacles, and, therefore, reads it wrong."<span>&nbsp;(</span></span></span></span><span><span><em>"The International Jew,"</em></span></span><span><span><span><span>&nbsp;Vol. IV, 238).</span><br /></span><br /></span></span><span><span><strong>GOD'S REAL NAME</strong></span></span><span><span><br /><br /><span><span>The demonic disdain for humanity exhibited by the Luciferian Jew, Harold Rosenthal, typifies the end result of a lethal amalgamation: Jewish religious ritual combined with the worship of knowledge and self. The Jews as a people, by rejecting God and/or accepting Jehovah, have been given over "to a reprobate mind...Being filled with all unrighteousness..." (Rom 1:28-31).&nbsp;</span><br /></span></span></span><span><span><span><span>Of course, Mr. Rosenthal was a member of an elite, openly Satanic minority among the Jewish people. Everyday Jews do not know that the god of their faith is in fact Satan hiding behind a mystical name. It is of no consequence to Satan whether he is worshiped deliberately or through subtle lies and deceptions (Gen 3).</span><br /></span></span></span><span><span><span><span>The wise Solomon asks, "what is [God's] name, and what is his son's name, if thou canst tell?" (Pro 30:4). God's name is&nbsp;</span></span></span></span><span><span>אהיה</span></span><span><span>&nbsp;</span></span><span><span><span>AHAYAH&nbsp;<span>(sometimes transliterated Ehyeh) meaning I AM. This is the name given to Moses along with the Law. "And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you...this is my memorial unto all generations."(Ex 3:14-15). "I AM the Lord&nbsp;<span>thy&nbsp;</span></span></span><span>God...thou shalt have no other gods before me" (Exo 32:4-5).</span></span></span></p>

   <title>Water: The Single Most Important Element for Your Health</title>
   <link>https://www.theopensource.tv/articles/water-the-single-most-important-element-for-your-health_75.html</link>
   <description><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: right;">Written by Dr. Joseph Mercola - <a href="http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2011/01/29/dr-pollack-on-structured-water.aspx" target="_blank">Full article at Mercola.com</a></p>
<p><span><a href="http://www.theopensource.tv/uploads/articles/40cd81ce.png" rel="prettyPhoto[phpmelody]"><img style="border: 0; float: right;" src="http://www.theopensource.tv/uploads/articles/40cd81ce.png" alt="" width="500" height="326" border="0" hspace="" vspace="" /></a>Dr. Gerald Pollack is one of the few expert researchers in the area of water and what it means to your health. He's a professor of bioengineering at the University of Washington, whose&nbsp;</span><a href="http://www.uwtv.org/programs/displayevent.aspx?rID=22222">theory of water</a><span>&nbsp;is nothing short of ground-breaking.</span></p>
<p><span style="line-height: 1.5em;">Water is clearly one of the most important factors in terms of what you put into your body, simply because without it you will die within a few short days. You may know that two-thirds of your body is water, but did you know that in terms of the number of molecules, your body actually consists of over 99 percent water molecules!</span></p>
<p><span style="line-height: 1.5em;">Astounding, isn't it?</span></p>
<p><span style="line-height: 1.5em;">For years, Dr. Pollack had been doing research on muscles and how they contract, but it struck him as odd that the most common ideas about muscle contraction do not involve water, despite muscle tissue consisting of 99 percent water molecules.</span></p>
<p><em style="line-height: 1.5em;">"So I became interested in water,"&nbsp;</em><span style="line-height: 1.5em;">Dr. Pollack says.</span><em style="line-height: 1.5em;">&nbsp;"We've been doing research in my laboratory at the University of Washington for some 10 years now on water. The book that I wrote in 2001, it's called&nbsp;<a href="http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0962689521/optimalwellnessc">Cells, Gels, and the Engines of Life</a>, talks about the role of water in cell biology. Water is absolutely central."</em></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<hr />
<p><span style="line-height: 1.5em;">Yet textbooks by and large completely ignore the presence of water in your organs, muscles and tissues. Dr. Pollack's book addresses this discrepancy and brings to the fore the role of water.</span></p>
<p><em style="line-height: 1.5em;">"The central message of that book is that if you don't understand how water interacts with the components of the cell, you haven't a clue of how the cell works,"</em><span style="line-height: 1.5em;">&nbsp;he says.</span></p>
<p><span style="line-height: 1.5em;">Interestingly enough, if you're like most people, you probably think we've got water all figured out. But according to Dr. Pollack, this is far from true. In fact, "those in the field know that it's absolutely not true. We haven't a clue how water works," he says. So here we are in 2011, and even now leading scientists like Dr. Pollack are just starting to pick at the tip of the iceberg in terms of understanding the foundational basis of water!</span></p>
<p><em style="line-height: 1.5em;">"In our lab, we've been focusing mainly on water structure near interfaces. Your body, of course, is filled with interfaces. Inside the cell, it's mainly proteins, nucleic acids, and salts. They're all interfacing with water,"&nbsp;</em><span style="line-height: 1.5em;">Dr. Pollack says.</span></p>
<p><em style="line-height: 1.5em;">"So the central question is: what happens when water interfaces with those constituents? Does it change? Does it remain the same? This is where we've made some important discoveries</em><span style="line-height: 1.5em;">."</span></p>

<div class="drcommentsdiv">
<h2>Highlights of a Decade's Worth of Research into Water</h2>
<h2><span style="font-size: 12px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 1.5em;">Dr. Pollack's research has uncovered some interesting surprises.</span></h2>
<p><em>"[T]he chemistry book says, if you have a charged interface, or so-called hydrophilic (water-loving) interface (which most of the constituents in your cell are), the current view is that a few water molecules might actually line up and become ordered. But this is considered a secondary effect, -- not very important for understanding of how cells function. What we found is that instead of two or three molecular layers, the ordering of water can actually amount to a few million molecular layers.</em></p>
<p><em>In other words, the water at interfaces can order in a macroscopic way. Is a really huge amount of this kind of water, and its properties are so different that it looks like a distinct phase of water."</em></p>
<p>So, what does this mean, in terms of affecting human biology?</p>
<p>If you think of the cell as a matrix of proteins, like a grid made up of proteins and nucleic acids, the spaces in between those grids are filled with water. This means there are a lot of surfaces that interact with water and impact its structure. Your cells consist mainly of this interfacial, or structured/ordered water, making it essential to understand this water in order to understand the workings of the cell.</p>
<p>This is not a new idea. It's been known for years, although the information has largely fallen out of view and been forgotten. One of the pioneers in this area is a Chinese-American researcher Gilbert Ling, who wrote several books on the central importance of water in the cell.</p>
<p>So, water is actually&nbsp;<em>part of the structure</em>&nbsp;of each cell. In addition to the fact that this water is interfacing and is ordered, it is also charged. And the water just beyond it is oppositely charged. This acts like a battery.</p>
<p>Dr. Pollack explains:</p>
<p><em>"In your cells are multiple batteries with plus and minus charges, separated... [T]he question is, how are these batteries charged?</em></p>
<p><em>The charge comes from incident radiant energy; light, heat, ultraviolet. All of these absorbed energies separate the charge. The energy that's coming in from outside builds this charge separation and order. This potential energy fills your cells. I think this energy is critical to an understanding of how your cells work."</em></p>
<p>In a nutshell, the water in each of your cells achieves its ordered structure from energy obtained from the environment, typically in the form of electromagnetic radiation, including sunlight and infrared heat.</p>
<h2>How the Water in Your Cells Impacts Your Health</h2>
<h2><span style="font-size: 12px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 1.5em;">You may have heard about "structured water" before. Many are quite skeptical, and some don't even believe it exists, let alone that it has any value. But it's important when trying to find high quality water. Water filtration processes used to clean our water supply frequently de-structures the water, so the question is whether or not this matters. Dr. Pollack explains this challenging concept in the following lecture:</span></h2>
<p><em>"In terms of the water that we drink, it's really a complicated issue</em>," Dr. Pollack admits.</p>
<p>But<em>&nbsp;"the water inside your cells is absolutely critical for your health. If you have a pathology of an organ, it's not only the proteins inside that organ that are not working, but also the water inside that organ. That near-protein water is not ordered in the way it should be.</em></p>
<p><em>So what you want to do is reestablish a kind of "ordering."</em></p>
<p>What this means is that if you don't have properly structured water in your cells, it can impact the functioning of the much larger protein molecules (and others) that are interfacing with it.</p>
<p>In fact, the protein molecule in your cells cannot be viewed as just a molecule by itself. It's actually the molecule PLUS the water. These two factors&nbsp;<em>together</em>&nbsp;form the "entity" of the molecule in question.</p>
<p><em>"If you need that entity to function properly--take a muscle for example&mdash;if the muscle is not functioning, it's the protein and the water that are not functioning,"&nbsp;</em>Dr. Pollack explains.&nbsp;<em>"You need plenty of this ordered/structured water and proteins in their right form in order to make the muscle function properly. So if you have a muscle injury then both are not functioning."</em></p>
<p>So, how do you restore it?</p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.theopensource.tv/uploads/articles/a15790fd.png" rel="prettyPhoto[phpmelody]"><img src="http://www.theopensource.tv/uploads/articles/a15790fd.png" alt="" width="500" height="221" border="0" hspace="" vspace="" /></a></h2>
<h2>Restructuring Water in Your Cells Creates Tissue Healing</h2>
<h2><span style="font-size: 12px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 1.5em;">Classically, one way of doing it is to use infrared radiation (heat). By applying heat to the muscle, you increase blood supply, which is helpful. But you're also building water structure! Dr. Pollack's research shows that infrared heat is very effective for ordering cellular water. In terms of the source of the infrared heat, as long as it emits the right wavelength of radiation, it will be effective. According to Dr. Pollack, the wavelength of 3 micrometers (microns) is ideal and very effective.</span></h2>
<p>The sun also emits this wavelength, which may be yet another reason why sun exposure has such profound health benefits and just&nbsp;<em>feels</em>&nbsp;good through and through. Interestingly, the human body also emits radiation within the ideal range, which may explain why simple physical contact, including 'hands-on healing,' can contribute to improved health!</p>
<p><em>"I know there is a lot of skepticism about that,"&nbsp;</em>Dr. Pollack says,<em>&nbsp;"but from a physical point of view, it's entirely possible."</em></p>
<p>Another way to structure water is to use light.</p>
<p>The visible light spectrum, ultraviolet (UV) and near infrared also builds ordered water zones. Again, light therapy has been used for years to remedy various maladies, such as depression and jaundice, for example. But it's only now that scientists are beginning to understand&nbsp;<em>why</em>&nbsp;such therapies work.</p>
<p>Clearly, one of the primary health benefits of sun exposure and UVB's is that it makes your body create vitamin D, which we now realize is absolutely crucial for optimal health. But the fact that it also helps structure the water within your cells may be yet another contributing factor. After all, your body is a conglomerate of symbiotic relationships.</p>
<h2>Should You Drink Structured Water?</h2>
<h2><span style="font-size: 12px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 1.5em;">This is still a question open for debate. However, Dr. Pollack believes that if you're able to drink structured water, it would be good for your health. Interestingly, certain waters, such as the "healing water" from the Ganges and Lourdes, for example, have been studied and found to have the signature of the structured water found in cells.</span></h2>
<p><em>"In other words, there was a particular absorption of energy at a particular wavelength that's absolutely characteristic of the structured water,"&nbsp;</em>Dr. Pollack says.</p>
<p><em>"That makes me think that there is a good possibility that the water really has the capability of retaining that structure over a long time&hellip; Therefore, it's possible that if you drink water that has this structure, it might be good for your health."</em></p>
<p>The second issue is: what happens when you swallow it? Does it still have the proper structure by the time it's absorbed in your intestines?&nbsp; According to Dr. Pollack, this question has yet to be answered and needs to be studied further.</p>
<p>One thing that&nbsp;<em>is</em>&nbsp;known is that structured water tends to stay together.</p>
<p><em>"For example, if you eat Jell-O, Jell-O is just filled with this kind of water,"&nbsp;</em>Dr. Pollack says<em>. "The reason why the water doesn't dribble out of the Jell-O is because it sticks together into this liquid crystalline-structured fashion.</em></p>
<p><em>So it's possible that when you swallow properly structured water&hellip; it might be preserved. If this structure is then absorbed into your intestines then it's possible it can be retained all the way into your cells. It's also possible that it's the charge within the ordered water that really matters.</em></p>
<p><em>Structured water contains charge, negative charge usually. It's possible that what you're really doing is absorbing the negative charge, and that negative charge is critical for building the structure. That's another possible route."</em></p>
<h2>Structuring and Destructuring Water&mdash;How is it Done?</h2>
<h2><span style="font-size: 12px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 1.5em;">Another open question is how you might de-structure water, which is what Dr. Pollack's team is currently exploring. It's unclear whether boiling, for example, can de-structure the water, or whether in fact it might help add structure&hellip; On the flip side is the question of how to reintroduce structure to water. I've often recommended two simple approaches to restructure water:</span></h2>
<ol>
<li>Cooling it to about 39 degrees Fahrenheit</li>
<li>Stirring the water with a spoon in a circular jar to create a vortex</li>
</ol>
<p>Dr. Pollack agrees. Water cooled to around 39 degrees Fahrenheit, or about 10 degrees Centigrade, does increase structure.</p>
<p><em>"We're studying the effects of temperature on the water structure that we see next to these hydrophilic surfaces</em>," Dr. Pollack says<em>. "It does look as though when you reduce the temperature, this area of structure increases. In fact, we're studying the possibility that the structured water is actually an intermediate between water and ice. It's possible that the real structure of this structured water, if you will, is very much like ice&mdash;not quite, but almost."</em></p>
<p>As for restructuring water by creating vortices, Viktor Schauberger is recognized as one of the leaders in this area. This technique is also used when making homeopathic remedies.</p>
<p>Dr. Pollack explains why this technique works:</p>
<p><em>"If you think of a vortex, what happens? Well, the vortex is a kind of mechanical perturbation or agitation. Probably it builds bubbles&mdash;little air bubbles that are deeply involved or enveloped into the vortex.</em></p>
<p><em>If these bubbles contain an envelope of structured water, then vortexing would be a very powerful way of increasing structure. So I think that is another way of increase. &nbsp;Both of those ideas: reducing the temperature and vortexing, probably do lead to increased water structure."</em></p>
<p>Researchers have also investigated what happens to the structure of water when you run an electrical current through it.</p>
<p><em>"If you put a negative electrode right next to structured water, the structured region grows, but with a positive electrode it diminishes," Dr. Pollack explains. "So this structured water is just filled with charge. It's not free charge, its charges that are fixed at points in a very tight matrix--something like a semi-conductor. But it can build, and the source from which it builds is water, ordinary bulk water.</em></p>
<p><em>&hellip; So yeah, if you put an electrode in, it does work. It has a powerful effect&hellip; In the experiments we've done, it's just a matter of 5-10 volts&hellip; We haven't studied it in enough detail how much voltage you really need to put on to be effective. That needs to be done in the future. There are pilot experiments that we've done and we haven't published them yet."</em></p>
<h2>The Connection Between Structured Water and the Practice of Earthing</h2>
<h2><span style="font-size: 12px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 1.5em;">Dr. Pollack also offers some fascinating insights into the technique of earthing, or grounding&mdash;the simple act of walking barefoot to "ground" with the Earth. The scientific theory behind the health benefits seen from this simple practice is that your body absorbs negative electrons from the Earth through the soles of your feet.</span></h2>
<p>Interestingly, Pollack adds support to this idea by explaining how the Earth is negatively charged, so when you ground, you're connecting your body to a negatively charged supply of energy. And since the Earth has a greater negative charge than your body, you end up absorbing electrons from it.</p>
<p>These negatively charged electrons may then help increase the structure of the water in your cells&mdash;just as water increases in structure when a negative charge is introduced with an electrode. Dr. Pollack is a wealth of information, and our interview covers far more than what I've summarized above. I highly recommend listening to the entire interview or reading through the transcript for even more information on this important topic.</p>

   <title>Vitamin C, Linus Pauling was right all along. A doctor&apos;s opinion</title>
   <link>https://www.theopensource.tv/articles/read-vitamin-c-linus-pauling-was-right-all-along-a-doctors-opinion_74.html</link>
   <description><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.theopensource.tv/uploads/articles/a6c4fc4f.jpg" rel="prettyPhoto[phpmelody]"><img style="float: right;" src="http://www.theopensource.tv/uploads/articles/a6c4fc4f.jpg" alt="" width="266" height="210" border="0" hspace="" vspace="" /></a>Here is an article written by Dr Hilary Roberts about Linus Pauling and his views on <a title="What are vitamins? What vitamins do I need?" href="http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/195878.php">vitamin</a> C. <strong>Summary</strong> <br />It is the 10th anniversary of the death of Linus Pauling and his most controversial scientific conjectures about the health benefits of vitamin C are being confirmed. The weight of evidence may yet force the medical establishment to accept his ideas on <a title="What is nutrition? Why is nutrition important?" href="http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/160774.php">nutrition</a> and health. <br /><br />Linus Pauling's claim, that he knew a cure for <a title="What Is Heart Disease?" href="http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/237191.php">heart disease</a>, <a title="What is Cancer?" href="http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/info/cancer-oncology/">cancer</a> and infections, was greeted with ridicule. His remarkable health claims concerned the substance we know as vitamin C. Now, ten years after his death on 19th August 1994, his revolutionary ideas are finally on the way to vindication. Given his history, it should not surprise us if Pauling was right all along. He was, after all, the leading chemist of the last century and, arguably, the greatest ever American scientist. He remains the only person to have won two unshared Nobel Prizes, the first for Chemistry (1954) and the second for peace (1962). In addition to being one of the greatest scientists ever, he was a renowned humanitarian.</p>
<hr />
<p><br />By the time of his death, the medical establishment had branded Pauling a quack, because he advocated the use of high doses of vitamin C to treat many diseases. Irwin Stone first introduced Pauling to vitamin C, and explained that it wasn't really a vitamin at all, but an essential substance we could no longer manufacture in our bodies. Most animals make their own vitamin C, in large amounts. In humans, the gene for this ability has mutated and no longer works properly. <br /><br />When Pauling looked into Stone's claims, he found that conventional medicine had long ignored evidence from respected physicians and scientists. This research suggested that high doses of vitamin C might be a cure for many illnesses, including cancer and heart disease. However, when he explained these findings in his wonderfully constructed books "Vitamin C and the Common Cold" and "How to Live Longer and Feel Better", the medical profession was incensed, implying that a mere chemist could not possibly understand the intricacies of medical science. <br /><br />If Pauling was correct, vitamin C could help overcome the major killers in the industrialised world. This sounded so unlikely that a lesser scientist making the claim would probably have been ignored; the medical world had already disregarded similar reports of vitamin C. Linus Pauling had a reputation for being 20 years ahead of other scientists. <br /><br />He may well have been years ahead in other fields but, in medicine, the insiders considered such a thing to be impossible. Pauling battled with the medical authorities and convinced a lot of the public of the benefits of high dose vitamin C. He took on the medical establishment because the implication for health was enormous: an end to premature death and unnecessary suffering from heart disease, infection and many cancers. <br /><br /></p>
<div id="article_ad_2">&nbsp;</div>
<p>Since Pauling's death, the medical establishment has reclaimed the scientific position with a series of experiments on vitamin C. In particular, the NIH measured the distribution of vitamin C in the body and claimed that Pauling was wrong about the need for high doses, as the blood could be saturated at low doses [Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 93, 3704-9.]. They added that doses higher than one gram were potentially dangerous. From this point on, the high dose vitamin C lobby were on the defensive. <br /><br />If the body could be saturated at low doses, the argument went, higher doses were simply a waste or even potentially dangerous. However, clinical reports of the utility of high dose vitamin C had been repeated in the literature for over 50 years. These reports continued, particularly in the fields of heart disease, infections and cancer, contradicting the NIH conclusions. Either the clinical reports of the efficacy of high doses were incorrect, or the NIH experimental work was flawed. <br /><br />Taking note of this inconsistency, Drs Steve Hickey and Hilary Roberts decided to investigate the data for a book ("Ascorbate, the science of vitamin C", www.lulu.com/ascorbate). They began by looking at the apparently ludicrous claims for the medical effects of vitamin C. Pauling had stated that the substance could cure cancer and that shortage was the major cause of heart disease. Among his many scientific advances, Pauling had made occasional errors: perhaps he had done the same with vitamin C. If he was wrong, his hypotheses should be easy to refute. <br /><br />When they examined the evidence, Hickey and Roberts found background evidence for Pauling's ideas from independent scientific and medical reports, covering half a century. The findings in these papers could neither be dismissed as placebo effects nor easily explained. The reports included remission of <a title="What Is AIDS? What Is HIV?" href="http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/17131.php">AIDS</a>, cures for cancer, and the immediate recovery of children at the point of death from septic shock. The claims seemed so out of the ordinary that they were hard to believe. However, Hickey and Roberts could find no counter examples in the scientific or medical literature. <br /><br />If these positive reports were indeed wrong, no-one had shown this to be true. The scientific evidence was consistent with Pauling's ideas, with a few notable exceptions. The primary exception was the NIH data on blood and tissue saturation. The medical establishment accepted the NIH conclusions and held them in the highest regard. The US Institute of Medicine had based their official recommended dietary allowance (RDA) on these results. If the NIH was correct, then Pauling was wrong and the positive reports of high doses must be invalid. <br /><br />The NIH conclusions were not correct, however. Hickey and Roberts examined their experiments and found them to be full of errors. For example, the researchers had given a dose of vitamin C, waited until it had been excreted and then measured blood levels. Using this procedure, they found that increasing the dose did not greatly increase the blood levels. Instead of realising that this was because the dose had been excreted, the NIH claimed it was because the body was saturated, so higher doses were redundant. They then used white blood cells as a model for normal cells, to see how they absorbed vitamin C from their surroundings. These white blood cells are specialised to absorb vitamin C, even when supplies are low. If other body cells were similar to white blood cells, we would normally have a reserve of 40 grams in our bodies. In this case, given the proposed RDA of 200mg, it would take 2-3 years to fill a depleted body. This is demonstrably incorrect: the classic example is that James Lind's sailors recovered from <a title="What Is Scurvy? What Causes Scurvy?" href="http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/155758.php">scurvy</a> in a matter of days when they were given citrus fruits containing small amounts of vitamin C. <br /><br />These mistakes were gross and unsupportable. In order to check their re-interpretation of the data, Hickey sent emails to the NIH, the Institute of Medicine and every scientist he could contact who was associated with the RDA, asking them to provide a reasonable scientific response to these errors. No-one was able to provide such a response. Since it is normal scientific practice to explain and defend your ideas, the hypothesis that people only need small amounts of vitamin C looks increasingly shaky. <br /><br />Even the NIH's subsequent data contradicts their earlier work. The NIH vitamin C group published a series of papers on vitamin C and cancer [Ann Intern Med, 140(7), 533-7.]. In these papers, they suggested that repeated doses of oral vitamin C would produce blood levels of at least 220 microM (a measure of the concentration) , which is three times greater than the 70 microM maximum 'saturated' value they claimed in their RDA papers. While their own papers clearly showed that their low-dose claims were wrong, the NIH appeared not to notice. Instead, they suggested that intravenous doses could produce higher blood levels, which might be effective against cancer. Even though their data were coming closer to Pauling's findings on the use of vitamin C in cancer, the NIH took the opportunity to mount another attack on Linus Pauling, suggesting he did not know the difference between oral and intravenous (IV) vitamin C. <br /><br />Pauling had performed a series of trials with Dr Ewan Cameron, a Scottish cancer specialist, showing that intravenous vitamin C allowed cancer patients to live much longer than expected. Numerous other studies confirmed this effect, particularly the work of Dr Abram Hoffer and Dr Hugh Riordan. The Mayo Clinic tried to refute this research but failed, as they used low, oral doses, making their results invalid. In their own cancer paper, the NIH researchers claimed that Pauling and Cameron's use of the IV route was 'serendipitous', implying that Pauling did not know the difference between injected and oral doses. In fact, Pauling had written explicitly about this difference, so the NIH criticism was misplaced. <br /><br />A new scientific theory, called the dynamic flow model, explains all the observed responses to vitamin C in the literature. This model is described in the book "Ascorbate", mentioned above. According to the model, people should ideally be in a state of dynamic flow, which means they should ingest more vitamin C than they need, in the form of divided dose supplements. The extra ascorbate flows through the body and is excreted in the urine. It is not wasted, however, as the excess acts as a reservoir when extra vitamin C is required. Dynamic flow is the closest we humans can get to restoring our <a title="What Is Physiology?" href="http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/248791.php">physiology</a> to how it was before we lost the ability to make vitamin C in our bodies, as most other animals still do. <br /><br />It is difficult to imagine what Linus Pauling would have made of all this had he lived. Hickey and Roberts like to think that he would have pointed out the NIH errors earlier. He might have had fun explaining that the NIH could not perform a simple experiment, yet tried to blame him for the deficiencies in the Mayo Clinic's research. It is now 10 years since Pauling's death. Biologist Ren' Dubos suggested that the mainstream converges with Pauling twenty years later. If so, we only have another decade to wait until the medical establishment can admit that Pauling was right all along. <br /><br />Dr. Hilary Roberts<br />Email: <a class="__cf_email__" href="http://www.theopensource.tv/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection">[email&nbsp;protected]</a></p>

   <title>Why NOT believing in Conspiracies is a Sure Sign of Mental Retardation</title>
   <link>https://www.theopensource.tv/articles/read-why-not-believing-in-conspiracies-is-a-sure-sign-of-mental-retardation_73.html</link>
   <description><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.theopensource.tv/uploads/articles/a9ebbd04.jpg" rel="prettyPhoto[phpmelody]"><img style="border: 0; float: right;" src="http://www.theopensource.tv/uploads/articles/a9ebbd04.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="274" border="0" hspace="" vspace="" /></a>(NaturalNews) The phrase "conspiracy theorist" is a derogatory smear phrase thrown at someone in an attempt to paint them as a lunatic. It's a tactic frequently used by modern-day thought police in a desperate attempt to demand "Don't go there!"<br />&nbsp; <br />But let's step back for a rational moment and ask the commonsense question: Are there really NO conspiracies in our world?<br />&nbsp; <br />The Attorney General of South Carolina would surely disagree with such a blanket statement. After all, he <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/019879_price_fixing_drug_racket.html">sued five pharmaceutical companies</a> for conducting a price-fixing conspiracy to defraud the state of Medicaid money.<br />&nbsp;</p>
<hr />
<p><br />Similarly, in 2008, a federal judge <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/022835_drug_racket_Big_Pharma.html">ruled that three pharmaceutical companies artificially marked up their prices in order to defraud Medicare.</a><br />&nbsp; <br />In fact, dozens of U.S. states have filed suit against pharmaceutical companies for actions that are conspiracies: conspiracy to engage in price fixing, conspiracy to bribe doctors, conspiracy to defraud the state and so on.<br />&nbsp; <br />The massive drug company GlaxoSmithKline, even more, <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/036385_GlaxoSmithKline_criminal_fraud_bribery.html">plead guilty to a massive criminal fraud case</a> involving a global conspiracy to bribe doctors into prescribing more GSK drugs.<br /><br />And this is just the tip of the iceberg. A deeper look into the criminality of just the drug industry alone reveals <strong>a widespread pattern of conspiratorial behavior</strong> to defraud the public and commit felony crimes in the name of "medicine."<br />&nbsp;</p>
<h1>What is a conspiracy, exactly?</h1>
<p>As any state or federal prosecutor will gladly tell you, a "conspiracy" is simply when two or more people plot to commit an act of deceit (or a crime).<br /><br />Thus, when three hoodlums plan to rob the local Quickie Mart, they are engaged in a "conspiracy" and will likely be charged with a "conspiracy to commit armed robbery" in addition to the different crime of "armed robbery." The fact that they planned it with several friends makes it a "conspiracy" worthy of additional felony charges, you see. When these charges are brought up in court, the judge doesn't look at the prosecutor and say, "You are a conspiracy theorist!" That would be absurd.<br /><br />The idea, then, that there is no such thing as a conspiracy is flatly ludicrous. And people who condemn others as being "conspiracy theorists" only make themselves look mentally impaired.<br /><br />To live in our modern world which is full of collusion and conspiracy -- and yet somehow DENY the existence of any conspiracies at all -- is an admission of a damaged brain. Of course there are conspiracies, and when people analyze those conspiracies, they are "theorizing" about what happened. This is, in fact, precisely the job that police detectives and FBI agents carry out almost daily.<br /><br />Most police detectives are, in reality, "conspiracy investigators" and analysts.<br /><br /></p>
<h1>There are endless examples of real conspiracies</h1>
<p>Auto manufacturers routinely conspire to cover up mechanical defects that put customer lives at risk. Even National Public Radio lays out <a href="http://www.npr.org/2014/03/31/297158876/timeline-a-history-of-gms-ignition-switch-defect">the full timeline of the General Motors conspiracy</a> to hide the problem with its faulty ignition switches.<br /><br />Last year, food corporations conspired with the Grocery Manufacturers of America (the GMA) to <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/042546_grocery_manufacturers_association_gmo_labeling_money_laundering.html">commit money laundering crimes in Washington state</a> in order to funnel money into a campaign to defeat GMO labeling there.<br /><br />The FDA <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/019497_FDA_drug_the.html">conspired with a drug manufacturer to keep a deadly diabetes drug called Rezulin on the market</a> in the USA even after safety regulators pulled the product in Europe.<br /><br />Similarly, the corrupt, criminal-minded operators of mainstream science journals conspired in a particularly evil way to <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/031116_Dr_Andrew_Wakefield_British_Medical_Journal.html">railroad Dr. Andrew Wakefield with provably false accusations</a> about the nature of his research into the side effects of vaccines. The <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/037249_gmo_study_cancer_tumors_organ_damage.html">GMO Seralini study</a> has been similarly railroaded by a genuine conspiracy of evil, corrupt science journal editors who routinely conspire to suppress all the science they don't want to be seen by the public. Fortunately, 150 other scientists have come to support Seralini with a <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/044555_seralini_study_gmos_scientific_integrity.html">global condemnation of the obviously contrived scientific censorship</a>.<br /><br />We live in a world of such deception and collusion that, frankly stated, it's hard to find a large institution (such as medicine, agriculture or the war industry) which isn't involved in some sort of conspiracy at some level.<br /><br /></p>
<h1>What is a "conspiracy theorist?</h1>
<p>The pejorative "conspiracy theorist" is meant to demean and ridicule skeptics of official stories.<br /><br />Most so-called "conspiracy theorists" are really skeptics, by definition. They're skeptical of what the government tells them. They're skeptical of the claim that drug companies are really only interested in helping humankind and have no desire to make money. They're skeptical that food corporations are telling them the truth about what's in their food. And they're also skeptical of anything coming out of Washington D.C., regardless of which party happens to be in power at the time.<br /><br />People who are not skeptics of "official stories" tend to be dull-minded. To believe everything these institutions tell you is a sign of mental retardation. To ask questions, on the other hand, is a sign of higher intelligence and wisdom.<br /><br />Skeptics of official stories, it turns out, also have the support of history on their side. How many times has it later been revealed that the American people were lied to by the very institutions we were supposed to trust?<br /><br />For example, it is an historical fact that <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/041345_cdc_polio_vaccine_sv40.html">98 million Americans were injected with hidden cancer viruses</a> which were later found in polio vaccines strongly recommended by the CDC. In an effort to cover that up and rewrite history, the CDC later <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/041593_CDC_polio_vaccine_SV40_cancer_virus.html">scrubbed all accounts of that history from its website</a>, pretending it never happened.<br /><br />That's more than a cover-up; it's an Orwellian-style conspiracy to selectively rewrite history and deny Americans any memory of a monumental, deadly error made by the CDC in collusion with the vaccine industry.<br /><br />According to two former Merck virologists, that company conspired to <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/036328_Merck_mumps_vaccine_False_Claims_Act.html">fake the results of its vaccine tests</a> by spiking test samples with animal antibodies, thereby falsely distorting the results to make the vaccine appear effective. The two virologists filed a False Claims Act with the federal government detailing the conspiracy, saying:<br /><br /><em>Merck also added animal antibodies to blood samples to achieve more favorable test results, though it knew that the human immune system would never produce such antibodies, and that the antibodies created a laboratory testing scenario that "did not in any way correspond to, correlate with, or represent real life ... virus neutralization in vaccinated people..."</em><br /><br /></p>
<h1>Conspiracies of money and big banks</h1>
<p>Every month, the Federal Reserve conspires to steal a portion of your wealth through "quantitative easing" -- an irresponsible money creation scheme that devalues all the currency already in circulation (i.e. the money in your bank account).<br /><br />The money the Fed creates is, not surprisingly, handed over to the big Wall Street banks -- the same banks that received <a href="http://www.cnbc.com/id/45674390">a jaw-dropping $29 trillion in "bailout money"</a> since the near-collapse of U.S. banking in late 2008.<br /><br />Why did this bailout money go to the banks instead of the American people? Because <strong>powerful people sat in dark rooms and colluded to send the money to the most influential banks</strong>. A conspiracy, in other words, by definition.<br /><br />Had that same amount of money been equally distributed across the U.S. population, the Fed would have distributed nearly $100,000 to each and every citizen in America; man, woman and child. But instead of enriching the population, the banking bailout <strong>burdened the population</strong> with the debt now owed to the Fed by future taxpayers.<br /><br />Every $1 trillion created by the Fed, after all, is $1 trillion "loaned" to the U.S. Treasury which must somehow be repaid. In truth, the minute you start to investigate how money is created, why the Federal Reserve is a private banking cartel and why the big banks get all the bailout money, you run head-first into genuine conspiracies almost from the outset. When you look up the word "conspiracy" in a dictionary, it should probably say, "See Banking and Finance."<br /><br /></p>
<h1>Our world is full of conspiracies because it's full of people who deceive</h1>
<p>The reason conspiracies are real is because humanity is a race capable of extreme deception. As long as there are people whose actions are based in greed, jealousy and a desire to dominate others, there will be real conspiracies plotted and operating across every sector of society.<br /><br />The correct term for "conspiracy theorist" should really be "conspiracy analyst." Most of the people who are skeptical of official stories are, in fact, <strong>analyzing conspiracies</strong> in an attempt to understand what really happened and what took place behind closed doors.<br /><br />A highly-recommended book the delves into this matter in more detail is the five-star-rated masterpiece <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Official-Stories-Counter-Arguments-Culture-Need/dp/147756134X">Official Stories: Counter-Arguments for a Culture in Need</a> by Liam Scheff.<br /><br />This book will open the minds of those who still have the cognitive capability remaining to grasp it. (Sadly, the injection of mercury into babies in the form of vaccines has damaged so many brains across America that many people are now cognitively incapable of rational thought.)<br /><br />And remember: the next time someone flings the phrase "conspiracy theorist" in your direction, simply know that they are effectively wearing a DUNCE hat on their heads by admitting they have failed to acknowledge that true conspiracies are rather commonplace.<br /><br />That's not merely a theory, either: it's a statement of fact.<br /><br />Learn more: <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/045172_conspiracy_theories_rational_thought_corporate_collusion.html#ixzz326le7l75">http://www.naturalnews.com/045172_conspiracy_theories_rational_thought_corporate_collusion.html#ixzz326le7l75</a></p>

   <title>Deconstructing 6 Major Marijuana Myths</title>
   <link>https://www.theopensource.tv/articles/read-deconstructing-6-major-marijuana-myths_72.html</link>
   <description><![CDATA[<div><strong>Author: </strong>Paul Fassa - <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/">NaturalNews.com</a></div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<p>(NaturalNews) Over the recent past few decades, the social stigma from the over-the-top absurdities of 1938's <em>Reefer Madness</em> have mostly evaporated. Millions have asserted they have at least tried marijuana without going insane and looking for stronger drugs to get "higher." Yet, today cannabis, a.k.a. marijuana, remains a DEA (Drug Enforcement Agency) Schedule I drug, dangerous, addictive and without any medical merit.<br /><br />Let's examine and refute some of the propaganda that puts users in prison and holds this plant as a Schedule I drug.<br /><br /><strong>(1) No medical merit</strong><br /><br />In 1974, the NIH (National Institutes of Health) funded the Virginia Medical College to do studies that would determine the damaging effects of marijuana, such as immune system damage. Instead, they found that marijuana reduced brain tumor growth in lab rats. The DEA stepped in and canceled the study and forced destruction of the study documents.<br /><br />Since then, there have been countless studies and testimonies proving cannabis efficacy at curing many diseases and maladies, including several cancers, effectively and without side effects.</p>

<p><br />Even patients who were told by mainstream medical doctors to get matters in order because death was around the corner managed to survive in better health than before after a few months of ingesting cannabis <em>with THC</em>, the compound <em>with psychotropic</em> effects (<a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/GoogleSearchResults.html?cx=010579349100583850635%3Aw_kzwe9_yca&amp;cof=FORID%3A11&amp;ie=UTF-8&amp;q=medical+marijuana+cures&amp;sa.x=13&amp;sa.y=13&amp;siteurl=www.naturalnews.com%2F045077_facial_acne_police_search_probable_cause.html&amp;ref=www.naturalnews.com%2F&amp;ss=7632j4949700j23" target="_blank">http://www.naturalnews.com</a>).<br /><br /><strong>(2) Marijuana dangers, pharmaceutical hypocrisy</strong><br /><br />In 1976, president Gerald Ford granted Big Pharma exclusive rights for researching cannabis while banning public research. Of course, Big Pharma's interest is to study enough of anything <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/natural.html">natural</a> to figure out how to synthesize it and be able to patent it as a pharmaceutical for big bucks. Natural substances can't be patented or monopolized.<br /><br />Big Pharma succeeded with its synthesis of cannabinoid THC, and the FDA approved Marinol in 1985 to curb vomiting and lack of appetite for chemotherapy patients. In 1992, Marinol was FDA-approved for AIDS patients to prevent anorexic wasting away.<br /><br />So synthetic THC without many of the 65 other cannabinoids that provide healing was ruled a Schedule III drug with <em>lower potential for abuse than drugs in the first two categories, accepted <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/medical.html">medical</a> use and mild to moderate possible addiction</em>.<br /><br />Then, in 2003, another synthetic cannabis patent was approved to create drugs purportedly effective for neurological disorders, including epilepsy and Parkinson's. This patent claimed synthetic CBD content (another cannabinoid) while eliminating THC.<br /><br /><strong>(3) <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/Marijuana.html">Marijuana</a> destroys brain cells</strong><br /><br />As part of the "War on Drugs" under Ronald Reagan, a study was done to prove that smoking pot destroyed brain cells. Monkeys were strapped into face masks connected to smoke from marijuana for hours at a time. The lack of oxygen damaged their brain cells, because the smoke was all they could breathe for long periods.<br /><br />Since then, there have been studies disproving this notion, here's one (<a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/040456_marijuana_cannabinoids_dementia.html" target="_blank">http://www.naturalnews.com</a>).<br /><br /><strong>(4) Marijuana is a gateway drug</strong><br /><br />Even alcoholic beverage drinkers believe that the first whiff of marijuana leads to your first needle as a heroine addict. This connection is mostly just not there. There have been many life-long potheads, some famous, who don't even consider those <em>synthetic</em> street drugs.<br /><br /><strong>(5) Marijuana is addictive</strong><br /><br />Then how come there are so many who have tried or used it for a few years then stopped without interventions or painful withdrawals?<br /><br /><strong>(6) Marijuana makes one lazy and unproductive</strong><br /><br />That's not the way this long-term heavy user of medical marijuana, successful stock broker/financial planner, family man and weekend volunteer sailing instructor for the underprivileged and handicapped experiences it (<a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/044730_medical_marijuana_stock_broker_productive_citizen.html" target="_blank">http://www.naturalnews.com</a>).<br /><br />The social stigma and legal restrictions are fading state by state <em>and even Washington, DC,</em> to allow cannabis medicinal <em>and/or</em> recreational use.<br /><br /><strong>Sources for this article include:</strong><br /><br /><a href="http://www.alternet.org/drugs/debunking-5-biggest-myths-about-pot?paging=off&amp;current_page=1#bookmark" target="_blank">http://www.alternet.org</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.thedailysheeple.com/marijuana-so-evil-the-u-s-govt-owns-the-patent-cannabinoids-as-antioxidants-and-neuroprotectants_012014" target="_blank">http://www.thedailysheeple.com</a><br /><br /><a href="http://patients4medicalmarijuana.wordpress.com/medical-use-of-cannabis-video/the-government-holds-a-patent-for-medical-marijuana/" target="_blank">http://patients4medicalmarijuana.wordpress.com</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.truthonpot.com/2013/05/25/what-is-marinol/" target="_blank">http://www.truthonpot.com</a><br /><br /><a href="http://medicalmarijuana.procon.org/view.answers.php?questionID=000089" target="_blank">http://medicalmarijuana.procon.org</a><br /><br /><a href="http://science.naturalnews.com/Cannabidiol.html" target="_blank">http://science.naturalnews.com</a><br /><br /><strong>About the author:</strong><br />Paul Fassa is dedicated to warning others about the current corruption of food and medicine and guiding others toward a direction for better health with no restrictions on health freedom.

   <title>The Clean Food Movement explained: huge victory for consumers vs. corporate collusion and secrecy</title>
   <link>https://www.theopensource.tv/articles/read-the-clean-food-movement-explained-huge-victory-for-consumers-vs-corporate-collusion-and-secrecy_71.html</link>
   <description><![CDATA[<p><strong><a href="http://www.theopensource.tv/uploads/articles/8109ad3e.jpg" rel="prettyPhoto[phpmelody]"><img style="border: 0; float: right;" src="http://www.theopensource.tv/uploads/articles/8109ad3e.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="295" border="0" hspace="" vspace="" /></a>Author: </strong>Mike Adams - <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/">NaturalNews.com</a></p>
<p>(NaturalNews) While Natural News is one of the best-known voices of the <em>Clean Food Movement</em>, there are actually many millions of voices across the movement. But what is the Clean Food Movement exactly? In this article, I explain what it means and where it came from.<br />&nbsp; <br />&nbsp; The Clean Food Movement is decentralized, grassroots movement that calls for total transparency about:<br />&nbsp; <br />&nbsp; * What's in the food (including honest labeling)<br />&nbsp; * How it was grown or raised<br />&nbsp; * Where it came from (geographically)<br />&nbsp; * Whether it's genetically engineered<br />&nbsp; * What chemicals it contains (such as MSG and aspartame)<br />&nbsp; <br />&nbsp; These days, food consumers are more sophisticated than ever, and they want to know what they're eating. They want to know what farming methods were used to produce the food, too, and in the case of meat production, they even want to know how those meat animals were raised and treated.<br />&nbsp; <br />&nbsp; Advocates of the Clean Food Movement believe in honest labeling of GMOs in foods, and they believe in "food democracy" in the sense that consumers should have full access to accurate information about foods on the shelf so they can make informed decisions about what to buy or what to avoid.</p>
<hr />
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h1>Show us the heavy metals!</h1>
<p>Clean Food Movement advocates also seek to avoid toxic heavy metals in their foods, superfoods and dietary supplements. They want to know what levels are found in their foods, and they seek out foods with the lowest concentrations possible.<br /><br />At the same time, they also want to know <strong>where their <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/food.html">food</a> is grown</strong> and whether any of it comes from China, a highly-polluted agricultural producer where 20 percent of the nation's farms are heavily contaminated with toxic heavy metals.<br /><br /></p>
<h1>Who opposes the Clean Food Movement? Dirty food producers!</h1>
<p>Opposition to the Clean Food Movement comes from producers of dirty, contaminated, genetically modified foods.<br /><br />The larger the food corporation, it seems, the less they want you to know about what's in their food products. That's why most of the largest food corporations <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/042546_grocery_manufacturers_association_gmo_labeling_money_laundering.html">conspired with the Grocery Manufacturers of America (GMA) to violate campaign laws in Washington state</a> with a <strong>secret money laundering scheme</strong> to defeat GMO labeling laws there.<br /><br />It's also why the GMA is <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/044853_gmo_food_labeling_laws_vermont.html">reportedly planning to sue Vermont</a>, the first U.S. state to pass mandatory GMO labeling laws. Evil industry front groups like the GMA believe <strong>you shouldn't know what you're buying and eating</strong>, so they want to keep consumers completely in the dark about what's in their food.<br /><br />But the GMA is fighting against the most sweeping trend in the history of food: the <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/Clean_Food_Movement.html">Clean Food Movement</a>. Everybody wants to know what they're eating, and as the scrutiny of foods increases across the board, consumers are going to demand more and more details such as country of origin, heavy metals concentrations, and manufacturing techniques.<br /><br />Even inside the organic product industry, companies that Natural News revealed as selling contaminated rice protein products are rapidly reformulating and scrambling to introduce newer, cleaner products. I just received word from Healthforce, for example, that all the rice protein they are manufacturing right now is substantially lower in heavy metals than the products they previously sold. (I'm not sure how long it will take for this new batch to replace the old batches on store shelves, but it's on the way!)<br /><br /></p>
<h1>Clean Food Movement is about food transparency</h1>
<p>Generations ago, most people used to grow a significant portion of their own diets. People maintained backyard gardens, and a much larger percentage of the population was involved in agricultural production than are today.<br /><br />Today, as the number of farmers is less than 2% of the total population, food production has become centralized and shrouded in secrecy. From the horrendous truths about CAFOs (Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations) to the dirty little secrets of contaminated "organic" food imported from China, food production today is conducted behind closed doors, using techniques that food producers would often be horrified to see made public.<br /><br />Even when it comes to food labels, food corporations hide the truths about their food using deceptive labeling code words. For example, MSG is hidden on labels using the ingredient "yeast extract." A food coloring pigment made from crushed female beetles is listed as "carmine," and toxic chemical preservatives are described on food labels as "added to retain freshness."<br /><br />There are a lot of manufactured foods people wouldn't buy, you see, if the truth was shown on labels, so the food corporations engage in routine deception and obfuscation to keep consumers in the dark.<br /><br /></p>
<h1>Huge victories already achieved for food transparency</h1>
<p>The Clean Food Movement is winning in all fronts in this war for honest food, by the way. In addition to the Vermont GMO labeling law, <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/045009_brominated_vegetable_oil_coca-cola_sucrose_acetate_isobutyrate.html">Coke and Pepsi recently removed the flame retardant chemical "BVO" from their products</a> due to a popular petition launched by a teenager!<br /><br />Subway restaurants announced they would remove a "yoga mat chemical" from their breads after a sustained petition drive by the Food Babe.<br /><br />And companies everywhere are now reformulating superfoods and supplements thanks to the heavy metals research I've conducted at the Natural News Forensic Food Lab.<br /><br />Likewise, Ronnie Cummins at the Organic Consumers Association is fighting hard to preserve the very definition of "organic" in the face of extreme pressure by corporations to water down the standard. At the same time, the OCA has announced <a href="http://www.organicconsumers.org/articles/article_30039.cfm">a massive boycott of all food corporations that belong to the GMA</a>.<br /><br />This includes a full-on boycott against all products made by Nestle, PepsiCo, Kraft, General Mills, Kellogg, Campbells, Smuckers and more. It even includes many natural-sounding brands owned by these corporate giants: Sweet Leaf Tea, Boca Burgers, Larabar, Alexia, Cascadian Farm, Bear Naked, Kashi, Morningstar Farms, Wolfgang Puck and many more.<br /><br />There's even <a href="http://buycott.com/">a "buycott" app for your mobile phone</a> that will allow you to scan products at the grocery store before you buy them, then it tells you whether the product is part of the boycott.<br /><br />Through grassroots efforts like these, consumers are increasingly empowered to <strong>vote with their dollars</strong> and stop financially supporting companies that sell dirty, contaminated, genetically modified foods.<br /><br /></p>
<h1>The rules have changed: Grassroots power to defeat corporate collusion</h1>
<p>The bottom line in all this is that the rules have changed: grassroots power now trumps corporate collusion.<br /><br />The power of tens of millions of motivated members of the Clean Food Movement to force changes upon billion-dollar corporations is undeniable. Through the freedom of the internet and sites like <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/">Natural News</a> which reaches millions of readers each month, <strong>corporations no longer control the narrative</strong>. The truth about their foods can no longer be suppressed or hidden, and the real power now belongs to consumers and activists.<br /><br />That's why I'm excited to be one of the many voices of the Clean Food Movement -- a <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/movement.html">movement</a> made up of scientists, hippies, journalists and even concerned parents of autistic children.<br /><br />Each of us is different in our own way -- we each have eccentricities, personalities and some differences in opinion -- but together we are a powerful force for positive global change. Together, we are literally changing the landscape of the food industry and forcing billion-dollar corporations to remove toxic chemicals from their products.<br /><br />And together, we have much more to achieve in terms of heavy metals limits, country of origin labeling, improved conditions for animals and the nationwide mandatory labeling of GMOs.<br /><br />Keep up the fight! This is a fight against secrecy and collusion. It is a fight for the "Right to Know." It is a fight for the fundamental human right to make an informed decision of what we choose to buy and consume.<br /><br />The age of food secrecy is fast drawing to a close. With your help, we can vastly expand the reach of the Clean Food Movement and achieve many more important victories for us all!<br /><br />Learn more: <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/045188_Clean_Food_Movement_transparency_grassroots_activism.html#ixzz326hcoFQ0">http://www.naturalnews.com/045188_Clean_Food_Movement_transparency_grassroots_activism.html#ixzz326hcoFQ0</a></p>

   <title>Natural News launches Labs reference website with heavy metals results for foods, organics, supplements and more</title>
   <link>https://www.theopensource.tv/articles/read-natural-news-launches-labs-reference-website-with-heavy-metals-results-for-foods-organics-supplements-and-more_69.html</link>
   <description><![CDATA[<p>(NaturalNews) In conjunction with the non-profit Consumer Wellness Center (ConsumerWellness.org), Natural News (NaturalNews.com) has begun publishing heavy metals lab reports for off-the-shelf food products. With industrial pollution worsening and many "organic" foods now imported from China, heavy metals and toxic elements are increasingly being found in foods purchased by consumers, including some certified organic foods.<br /><br />Through NaturalNews.com, heavy metals lab results are available free to the public and include parts per billion (ppb) concentrations of Aluminum, Arsenic, Cadmium, Mercury, Lead and Copper. Due to concerns about foods absorbing radioactive fallout from the Fukushima catastrophe, results for Cesium and Uranium are also included. Toxic elements are linked to diseases like cancer, Alzheimer's, schizophrenia, kidney failure, cognitive impairment, birth defects, hardening of the arteries and more.</p>
<hr />
<p><br />Testing is conducted via ICP-MS (Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry), using high-level analytical chemistry and cutting edge scientific instrumentation.<br /><br />Foods being tested by the CWC include fast foods, conventional grocery products, breakfast cereals, superfoods, protein powders, infant formula, packaged meats, dairy products, sodas, teas and dietary supplements. A small selection of lab results is already published, with dozens more posted each week. Results are available now at:<br /><a href="http://labs.naturalnews.com/" target="_blank">http://Labs.NaturalNews.com</a><br /><br /></p>
<h1>Total transparency for foods, superfoods, organics and supplements</h1>
<p>Mike Adams, the executive director of the Consumer Wellness Center, oversees laboratory operations. "This food science project is about providing transparency to consumers so they can make informed decisions about what foods they wish to consume or avoid," Adams explains. "Many people also have health conditions which are worsened by toxic heavy metals, and given that these elements can stay in the body for decades, consumers are empowered by knowing which foods are safer for them to consume."<br /><br />Adams has also released a video explaining the announcement:<br /><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QnnTQaCbayk" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QnnTQaCbayk</a><br /><br />Currently, the FDA sets no upper limit on allowable heavy metals in foods. The USDA's certified organic program also defines no limits. Foods can be legally sold in the United States even when they contain extremely high levels of heavy metals and toxic elements.<br /><br />Because heavy metal contaminants are not required to be listed on labels, food consumers are unknowingly buying and consuming them in concerning quantities. All heavy metals bio-accumulate in mammals and humans, meaning the longer someone continues to eat them, the worse the health effects can become.<br /><br />Learn more at <a href="http://labs.naturalnews.com/" target="_blank">http://labs.naturalnews.com</a><br /><br />Learn more: <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/043422_heavy_metals_lab_tests_organic_foods.html##ixzz2pnLxolCt">http://www.naturalnews.com/043422_heavy_metals_lab_tests_organic_foods.html##ixzz2pnLxolCt</a></p>

   <title>Ireland&apos;s natural resources belong to the Irish- Avaaz.org Petition</title>
   <link>https://www.theopensource.tv/articles/read-irelands-natural-resources-belong-to-the-irish-avaazorg-petition_68.html</link>
   <description><![CDATA[<p>"We the people of Ireland demand the Irish government stop the great giveaway of Ireland's natural resources. We demand that royalty deals and the tax rate imposed upon oil and gas companies be brought in line with that of other European countries such as Norway and Great Britain. The citizens of Ireland also demand that the government renegotiate the unsustainable and unfair fishing quotas imposed upon the Irish fishing industry. The sale of Ireland's forests/harvesting rights by this government or successive governments will not be accepted or tolerated."</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #0099ff;">SIGN THE PETITION</span></strong>: <a href="http://www.avaaz.org/en/petition/Irelands_natural_resources_belong_to_the_Irish/?pv=11">http://www.avaaz.org/en/petition/Irelands_natural_resources_belong_to_the_Irish/?pv=11</a></p>
<hr />
<p>It has been estimated that the Corrib gas field off the coast of Co. Mayo is worth &euro;13bn, Barryroe oil field off the coast of Co. Cork is worth &euro;85bn and the oil field off the coast of Dalkey, Co.Dublin is worth approximately &euro;60bn (current price of crude oil = $110/barrel approx.). Under current legislation, Ireland receives little or no financial gain from the sale of its natural resources. Ireland has the lowest taxation terms of any developed country. The current tax rate imposed on oil and gas companies stands at 25% of profits incurred. What many people don't know is that this tax has a 100% write-off against exploration and development costs extending back to 25 years before the oil or gas field goes into production. This means that oil and gas companies pay very little tax to the Irish exchequer. On top of that, oil and gas companies are not required to supply Ireland with any of the oil and gas they find. Nor are they required to refine their produce in Ireland. They are not even required to employ a single Irish person.</p>
<p>The Irish fishing industry has also been sold out by past and present Irish governments who agree to unfair EU fishing quotas. The total available catch off Ireland last year was estimated at &euro;1bn. Of this value, Ireland was only entitled to catch &euro;0.19bn, the rest going to other EU countries.</p>
<p>The present Irish government are also considering selling off Ireland's forest harvesting rights for 80 years. This sell off would raise approximately 3 weeks loan interest on the national debt while at the same time destroying tourism. Under the proposed deal, Ireland would be required to replant the trees that are harvested by private companies. This would actually cost the state money instead of alleviating its financial woes.</p>]]></description>

   <title>Citizen Arrest Warrants Issued today to Detain former Pope, Queen of England and other church-state officers – Property and Assets to be Seized</title>
   <link>https://www.theopensource.tv/articles/read-citizen-arrest-warrants-issued-today-to-detain-former-pope-queen-of-england-and-other-church-state-officers-%e2%80%93-property-and-assets-to-be-seized_67.html</link>
   <description><![CDATA[<p>Brussels:</p>
<p>Thirty officials of church and state who were convicted last week of committing and concealing Crimes against Humanity in Canada have defied a lawful Court Order, and now face immediate arrest.</p>
<p>Today, The International Common Law Court of Justice has issued an International Citizens Arrest Warrant, of one year duration, authorizing the detaining and imprisonment of these thirty fugitives from justice under the terms of the Court Verdict of February 25, 2013.</p>
<p>A copy of the stamped and sealed Citizens Arrest Warrant is attached.</p>
<p>The public seizure of the property and assets of the guilty parties and their organizations will also commence today, in Canada, the United States, England and Italy, in accordance with the Court Order.</p>
<p>The fugitive criminals include Catholic, Anglican and United Church officers in Canada, corporate and RCMP officials, and the Canadian Prime Minister, Stephen Harper. But they also include former Pope Joseph Ratzinger, three top Cardinals in Vatican City, the head of the Jesuit Order, and the Queen of England and the Archbishop of Canterbury.</p>
<hr />
<p><span style="line-height: 1.5em;">&ldquo;These convicted felons can hide all they want, but their church property can&rsquo;t&rdquo; said Calvin Hodges, a Common Law Court Peace Officer in Canada who will lead church occupations there.</span></p>
<p>&ldquo;We&rsquo;ve declared them Public Enemies for killing thousands of Indian children, protecting child rapists, and covering up their filth. If we can&rsquo;t arrest them right away, then we&rsquo;ll ban them and these churches from our communities.&rdquo;</p>
<p>The Court and its sponsoring body, the International Tribunal into Crimes of Church and State (ITCCS), are issuing Public Notices today in fifteen countries declaring the Thirty to be wanted criminals who pose a Clear and Present Danger to children and citizens, and asking for the help of other governments and citizens to detain them.</p>
<p>The Citizen Arrest Warrant is being issued to local Citizen Action groups, authorizing them to arrest the Thirty and seize their property.</p>
<p>Local regular police authorities in Canada, England, the United States and Italy have been formally asked by the Court to cooperate in enforcing its Order.</p>
<p>Ongoing church occupations will continue indefinitely and will involve an International Week of Reclamation leading up to Easter Sunday, between March 24 and 31, 2013.</p>

   <title>GLOBAL ELITES THROWN OUT OF ICELAND: Iceland Dismantles Corrupt Gov’t Then Arrests All Rothschild Bankers</title>

   <description><![CDATA[<p><span style="PADDING-RIGHT: 8px"><a href="http://www.freedumbnation.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/IclandicGovtOverthrow.jpg"><img title="IclandicGovtOverthrow" border="0" alt="" src="http://www.freedumbnation.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/IclandicGovtOverthrow.jpg" width="590" height="393"></a></span></p>
<p>Since the 1900′s the vast majority of the American population has dreamed about saying “NO” to the Unconstitutional, corrupt, Rothschild/Rockefeller banking criminals, but no one has dared to do so. Why? If just half of our Nation, and the “1%”, who pay the majority of the taxes, just said NO MORE! Our Gov’t would literally change over night. Why is it so hard, for some people to understand, that by simply NOT giving your money, to large Corporations, who then send jobs, Intellectual Property, etc. offshore and promote anti-Constitutional rights… You will accomplish more, than if you used violence. In other words… RESEARCH WHERE YOU ARE SENDING EVERY SINGLE PENNY!!! Is that so hard? The truth of the matter is… No one, except the Icelanders, have to been the only culture on the planet to carry out this successfully. Not only have they been successful, at overthrowing the corrupt Gov’t, they’ve drafted a Constitution, that will stop this from happening ever again. That’s not the best part… The best part, is that they have arrested ALL Rothschild/Rockefeller banking puppets, responsible for the Country’s economic Chaos and meltdown.</p>
<p>Last week 9 people were arrested in London and Reykjavik for their possible responsibility for Iceland’s financial collapse in 2008, a deep crisis which developed into an unprecedented public reaction that is changing the country’s direction.</p>
<p>It has been a revolution without weapons in Iceland, the country that hosts the world’s oldest democracy (since 930), and whose citizens have managed to effect change by going on demonstrations and banging pots and pans. Why have the rest of the Western countries not even heard about it?</p>
<p>Pressure from Icelandic citizens’ has managed not only to bring down a government, but also begin the drafting of a new constitution (in process) and is seeking to put in jail those bankers responsible for the financial crisis in the country. As the saying goes, if you ask for things politely it is much easier to get them.</p>
<p>This quiet revolutionary process has its origins in 2008 when the Icelandic government decided to nationalise the three largest banks, Landsbanki, Kaupthing and Glitnir, whose clients were mainly British, and North and South American.</p>
<p>After the State took over, the official currency (krona) plummeted and the stock market suspended its activity after a 76% collapse. Iceland was becoming bankrupt and to save the situation, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) injected U.S. $ 2,100 million and the Nordic countries helped with another 2,500 million.</p>
<p>Great little victories of ordinary people</p>
<p>While banks and local and foreign authorities were desperately seeking economic solutions, the Icelandic people took to the streets and their persistent daily demonstrations outside parliament in Reykjavik prompted the resignation of the conservative Prime Minister Geir H. Haarde and his entire government.</p>
<p>Citizens demanded, in addition, to convene early elections, and they succeeded. In April a coalition government was elected, formed by the Social Democratic Alliance and the Left Green Movement, headed by a new Prime Minister, Jóhanna Sigurðardóttir.</p>
<p>Throughout 2009 the Icelandic economy continued to be in a precarious situation (at the end of the year the GDP had dropped by 7%) but, despite this, the Parliament proposed to repay the debt to Britain and the Netherlands with a payment of 3,500 million Euros, a sum to be paid every month by Icelandic families for 15 years at 5.5% interest.</p>
<p>The move sparked anger again in the Icelanders, who returned to the streets demanding that, at least, that decision was put to a referendum. Another big small victory for the street protests: in March 2010 that vote was held and an overwhelming 93% of the population refused to repay the debt, at least with those conditions.</p>
<p>This forced the creditors to rethink the deal and improve it, offering 3% interest and payment over 37 years. Not even that was enough. The current president, on seeing that Parliament approved the agreement by a narrow margin, decided last month not to approve it and to call on the Icelandic people to vote in a referendum so that they would have the last word.</p>
<p>The bankers are fleeing in fear</p>
<p>Returning to the tense situation in 2010, while the Icelanders were refusing to pay a debt incurred by financial sharks without consultation, the coalition government had launched an investigation to determine legal responsibilities for the fatal economic crisis and had already arrested several bankers and top executives closely linked to high risk operations.</p>
<p>Interpol, meanwhile, had issued an international arrest warrant against Sigurdur Einarsson, former president of one of the banks. This situation led scared bankers and executives to leave the country en masse.</p>
<p>In this context of crisis, an assembly was elected to draft a new constitution that would reflect the lessons learned and replace the current one, inspired by the Danish constitution.</p>
<p>To do this, instead of calling experts and politicians, Iceland decided to appeal directly to the people, after all they have sovereign power over the law. More than 500 Icelanders presented themselves as candidates to participate in this exercise in direct democracy and write a new constitution. 25 of them, without party affiliations, including lawyers, students, journalists, farmers and trade union representatives were elected.</p>
<p>Among other developments, this constitution will call for the protection, like no other, of freedom of information and expression in the so-called Icelandic Modern Media Initiative, in a bill that aims to make the country a safe haven for investigative journalism and freedom of information, where sources, journalists and Internet providers that host news reporting are protected.</p>
<p>The people, for once, will decide the future of the country while bankers and politicians witness the transformation of a nation from the sidelines.</p>]]></description>

   <title>ACTA: The new threat to the Net</title>

   <description><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman';">Last week, 3 million of us beat back America's attack on our Internet! -- but&nbsp;there is an even bigger threat out there, and our global movement for freedom online is perfectly poised to kill it for good.<br /><br /><strong>ACTA -- a global treaty -- could allow corporations to censor the Internet.</strong> Negotiated in secret by a small number of rich countries and corporate powers,&nbsp;it would set up a shadowy new anti-counterfeiting body to allow private interests to police everything that we do online and impose massive penalties&nbsp;-- even prison sentences -- against people they say have harmed their business.<br /><br /><strong>Europe is deciding right now whether to ratify ACTA -- and without them, this global attack on Internet freedom will collapse.</strong> We know they have opposed ACTA before, but some members of Parliament are wavering --&nbsp;<strong>let's give them the push they need to reject the treaty.</strong>&nbsp;Sign the petition -- we'll do a spectacular delivery in Brussels when we reach 500,000 signatures:<br /><br /><a href="http://www.avaaz.org/en/eu_save_the_internet/?cl=1533338742&amp;v=12249">http://www.avaaz.org/en/eu_save_the_internet/?vl</a><br /><br /></span></p>
<hr />
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman';">It's outrageous -- governments of four-fifths of the world&rsquo;s people were excluded from the&nbsp;Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA)&nbsp;negotiations and&nbsp;<strong>unelected bureaucrats have worked closely with corporate lobbyists to craft new rules and a dangerously powerful enforcement regime.</strong>&nbsp;ACTA would initially cover the US, EU and 9 other countries, then be rolled out across the world. But if we can get the EU to say no now, the treaty will lose momentum and could stall for good.<br /><br />The oppressively strict regulations could mean people everywhere are punished for simple acts such as sharing a newspaper article or uploading a video of a party where copyrighted music is played. Sold as a trade agreement to protect copyrights,&nbsp;<strong>ACTA could also ban lifesaving generic drugs and threaten local farmers' access to the seeds they need.</strong>&nbsp;And, amazingly, the ACTA committee will have carte blanche to change its own rules and sanctions with no democratic scrutiny.<br /><br /><strong>Big corporate interests are pushing hard for this, but the EU Parliament stands in the way.</strong>&nbsp;Let's send a loud call to Parliamentarians to face down the lobbies and stand firm for Internet freedom. Sign now and send to everyone you know:<br /><br /><a href="http://www.avaaz.org/en/eu_save_the_internet/?cl=1533338742&amp;v=12249">http://www.avaaz.org/en/eu_save_the_internet/?vl</a><br /><br />Last week, we saw the strength of our collective power when millions of us joined forces to stop the US from passing an Internet censorship law that would have struck at the heart of the Internet. We also showed the world how powerful our voices can be.

   <description><![CDATA[<p>As concerned global citizens, we call on you to stand for a free and open Internet and vote against both the Protect IP Act and the Stop Online Piracy Act. The Internet is a crucial tool for people around the world to exchange ideas and work collectively to build the world we all want. We urge you to show true global leadership and do all you can to protect this basic pillar of our democracies worldwide.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.theopensource.tv/admin/">Sign the petition!</a><br /><br /></p>
<hr />
<p>The vote could happen at any time now, <strong>and free speech champions in Congress say our outcry is crucial.</strong> Senator Wyden is even planning to block the vote by reading out our petition names for hours! We are meeting with the White House this week -- and members of Congress have asked to be updated daily on exactly how many signatures we've got. <strong>Let's reach 1 million before this important meeting.</strong></p>
<p><small><span>Posted:&nbsp;15&nbsp;November&nbsp;2011</span></small><br />Right now, <strong>Congress is debating a law that would give them the power to censor the world's Internet</strong> -- creating a blacklist that could target YouTube, WikiLeaks and even groups like Avaaz! <br /><br />Under the new law, <strong>the US could force Internet providers to block any website on suspicion of violating copyright or trademark legislation,</strong> or even failing to sufficiently police their users' activities. And, because so much of the Internet's hosts and hardware are located in the US, <strong>their blacklist would clamp down on the free web for all of us.</strong><br /><br /><strong>The vote could happen at any time now,</strong> but we can help stop this -- champions in Congress want to preserve free speech and tell us that a global outcry would strengthen their hand, and one of them -- <strong>Senator Wyden -- says he will "filibuster" or block any vote on the bill by reading out our petition names until the clock runs out!</strong> Let's urgently raise our voices from every corner of the world to build an unprecedented global petition. <strong>Sign the petition and send to everyone.</strong><br /><br /><a href="http://www.theopensource.tv/admin/">Sign the petition!</a><br /><br />For years, <strong>the US has condemned countries like China and Iran for their clampdown on Internet use.</strong> But now, the impact of <strong>these new censorship laws could be far worse</strong> -- effectively blocking sites to every Internet user across the globe. <br /><br />Last year, a similar Internet censorship bill was killed before reaching the US Senate floor, but it's now back in a different form. <strong>Copyright laws already exist and are enforced by courts.</strong> But this new law goes much further -- granting the US government and <strong>big corporations enormous powers to force service providers and search engines to block websites</strong> based just on allegations of violations -- without a trial or being found guilty of any crime! <br /><br />Free speech advocates have already raised the alarm, and some key senators are trying to gather enough support to stop this dangerous bill. We have no time to lose. <strong>Let's stand with them to ensure that American lawmakers preserve the right to a free and open Internet</strong> as an essential way for people around the world to exchange ideas, share communication and work collectively to build the world we want. Sign the petition to stop censorship, and save the Internet as we know it. <br /><br /><a href="http://www.theopensource.tv/admin/">Sign the petition!</a><br /><br />In the past months, from the Arab Spring to the global Occupy Movement, we've seen first hand how the Internet can galvanize, unify and change society. Now, if we stand together, we can stop this new attack on Internet freedom. We've done it before -- in Brazil and Italy, Avaaz members have won major victories in the fight for a free Internet. <strong>Let's galvanize our global web community to crush the most powerful censorship threat that the Internet has ever seen.</strong></p>

   <title>Occupy Demonstrations Erupt in Over 1,500 Cities Worldwide From Tahir Square to Times Square</title>

   <description><![CDATA[<p>Thousands Flood the Streets of Global Financial Centers, Capitol Cities and Small Towns to "Occupy Together" Against Wall Street Mid-Town Manhattan Jammed as Marches Converge in Times Square</p>
<p>New York, NY -- After triumphing in a standoff with the city over the continued protest of Wall Street at Liberty Square in Manhattan's financial district, the Occupy Wall Street movement has spread world wide today with demonstrations in over 1,500 cities globally and over 100 US cities from coast to coast. In New York, thousands marched in various protests by trade unions, students, environmentalists, and community groups. As occupiers flocked to Washington Square Park, two dozen participants were arrested at a nearby Citibank while attempting to withdraw their accounts from the global banking giant.</p>
<p>"I am occupying Wall Street because it is my future, my generations' future, that is at stake," said Linnea Palmer Paton, 23, a student at New York University. "Inspired by the peaceful occupation of Tarhir Square in Cairo, tonight we are are coming together in Times Square to show the world that the power of the people is an unstoppable force of global change. Today, we are fighting back against the dictators of our country - the Wall Street banks - and we are winning."</p>
<p>New Yorkers congregated in assemblies organized by borough, and then flooded the subway system en mass to join the movement in Manhattan. A group calling itself Todo Boricua Para Wall Street marched as a Puerto Rican contingent of several hundred playing traditional music and waving the Lares flag, a symbol of resistance to colonial Spain. "Puerto Ricans are the 99% and we will continue to join our brothers and sisters in occupying Wall Street," said David Galarza Santa, a trade unionist from Sunset Park, Brooklyn. "We are here to stand with all Latinos, who are being scapegoated by the 1%, while it is the bankers who have caused this crisis and the banks who are breaking the law."</p>
<p>While the spotlight is on New York, "occupy" actions are also happening all across the Midwestern and the Southern United States, from Ashland, Kentucky to Dallas, Texas to Ketchum, Idaho. Four hundred Iowans marched in Des Moines, Iowa Saturday as part of the day of action:</p>
<p>"People are suffering here in Iowa. Family farmers are struggling, students face mounting debt and fewer good jobs, and household incomes are plummeting," said Judy Lonning a 69-year-old retired public school teacher. "We're not willing to keep suffering for Wall Street's sins. People here are waking up and realizing that we can't just go to the ballot box. We're building a movement to make our leaders listen."</p>
<p>Protests filled streets of financial districts from Berlin, to Athens, Auckland to Mumbai, Tokyo to Seoul. In the UK over 3,000 people attempted to occupy the London Stock Exchange. "The financial system benefits a handful of banks at the expense of everyday people," said Spyro Van Leemnen, a 27-year old public relations agent in London and a core member of the demonstrators. "The same people who are responsible for the recession are getting away with massive bonuses. This is fundamentally unfair and undemocratic."</p>
<p>In South Africa, about 80 people gathered at the Johannesburg Securities Exchange, Talk Radio 702 reported. Protests continued despite police efforts to declare the gathering illegal. In Taiwan, organizers drew several hundred demonstrators, who mostly sat quietly outside the Taipei World Financial Center, known as Taipei 101.</p>
<p>600 people have begun an occupation of Confederation Park in Ottawa, Canada today to join the global day of action. "I am here today to stand with Indigenous Peoples around the world who are resisting this corrupt global banking system that puts profits before human rights," said Ben Powless, Mohawk citizen and indigenous youth leader. "Native Peoples are the 99%, and we've been resisting the 1% since 1492. We're marching today for self- determination and dignity against a system that has robbed our lands, poisoned our waters, and oppressed our people for generations. Today we join with those in New York and around the world to say, No More!"</p>
<p>In Australia, about 800 people gathered in Sydney's central business district, carrying cardboard banners and chanting "Human need, not corporate greed." Protesters will camp indefinitely "to organize, discuss and build a movement for a different world, not run by the super-rich 1%," according to a statement on the Occupy Sydney website.</p>
<p>The movement's success is due in part to the use of online technologies and international social networking. The rapid spread of the protests is a grassroots response to the overwhelming inequalities perpetuated by the global financial system and transnational banks. More actions are expected in the coming weeks, and the Occupation of Liberty Square in Manhattan will continue indefinitely.</p>
<p>Occupy Wall Street is a people powered movement that began on September 17, 2011 in Liberty Square in Manhattan</p>]]></description>
