TRANSIT OF VENUS
Space Weather News for June 5, 2012
http://spaceweather.com
TRANSIT OF VENUS: The historic 2012 Transit of Venus commences today, June 5th, at 3:09 pm Pacific Daylight Time (22:09 UT). Spaceweather.com is covering the event with observing tips, a real-time photo gallery, and links to live webcasts
from around the world. Extraordinary photos of Venus taken during the hours leading up to the transit are also featured on today's edition of http://spaceweather.com .
SOLAR WIND: A stream of high-speed solar wind is buffeting Earth's magnetic field, stirring geomagnetic activity around the poles. NOAA forecasters estimate a better-than-even chance of high-latitude geomagnetic storms during the next 24 hours. Aurora alerts are available from http://spaceweathertext.com

A Rare Sunspot
June 5 Venus Transit
http://stardate.org/nightsky/june-2012-venus-transit
Venus crosses between Earth and the Sun every 19 months. Its orbit is tilted slightly with respect to Earth’s orbit, though, so most of the time Venus passes just above or below the Sun. Occasionally, though, the geometry is just right, so Venus passes across the Sun.
Such transits happen in pairs, with the two halves of the pair separated by eight years. There was a transit eight years ago, so the June 5 transit is the last half of a pair. The pairs are separated by either 105.5 or 121.5 years. So after this year, the next transit isn’t until 2117.
The June 5 transit begins about 5:04 p.m. CDT, when Venus first touches the edge of the solar disk. Venus will be fully immersed in the Sun’s disk about 18 minutes later, and will remain inside the disk for another six hours. The Sun will set before then across the Lower 48 states, but the entire transit will be visible from Alaska and Hawaii.

Louis Freeh
Louis fbi-f@#%-up-and-go-free Freeh, former director of the FBI Sept 1993 - June 2001
is probabbly most famous for his NON-investigations, i.e. whitewashes, especially of 9/11, but there are many others, and many more to come.
He, and his firm, are being kept quite busy running here and there trying to keep a lid on the cesspool. But it just keeps overflowing; too much to contain.
He was also appointed to (NOT) investigate
>>>corruption in international soccer
>>>Penn State and Sandusky cover-up (back in the news today)
>>>MF Global
to list some of the more "interesting" cesspools under (non) investigation.
Some of the highlights Of LF's career (or low lights depending on your point of view):
1. Devout Catholic. THE Roman Catholic Church, sadistic, depraved and corrupt for centuries.
2. Educated by Christian Brothers - a particularly sadistic sect of the aforementioned Catholic Church, involved in widespread child sexual abuse, most notably in Ireland.
3. Appointed to head the FBI by Clinton, in 1993. Clinton needed to keep his back covered, while pursuing his Oval Office activities. Clinton: long political career in Arkansas--many close friends, acquaintances, colleagues, employees (such as body guards, state troopers) somehow "suicided".
4. "Investigated" Vince Foster's "suicide". ("Suicides" happened a lot during the Clintons' years of government service.)
5. "Investigated" Ruby Ridge (which actually occured in 1992) but was whitewashed by Freeh's crack FBI team. Oh, and the regional FBI director who gave the "shoot to kill" orders at Ruby Ridge, was promoted and transferred to Washington D.C. where his talents could be better utilized.
6. WACO
7. OKC
8. Crash of TWA flight 800
9. 9/11
Interestingly, LF acquired Italian citizenship 10/23/09.
Is that so he can be closer to the fun and games in the Vatican?
or assist the pope with keeping the lid on their cesspool?
or both?

Plata Mejor (Silver Best)
Lovely name. She must be a gray. Named after a precious metal.
Lots to keep you busy.
I only threw out the goat's milk idea, because it has been on my mind the last couple days, for some reason (ever since I read about the abandoned foals.)
Here's a website of a woman who rescues "nurse mare" abandoned foals. She briefly mentions getting them used to drinking milk from a bucket(rather than bottle feeding}. She feeds them cow's milk. http://dreamequinetherapycenter.org/downloads/holdingherhorses_story_terristemper_charlottewomanmag.pdf
I've also watched a video about desert Arabians, being fed a diet of camel's milk and dates. (There's no grazing available.) The camel's milk was poured into a large shallow chest-high (to the Arabians) trough. They arched their lovely necks over the feed trough and slurped up the milk and nibbled on dates, grabbing them with their delicate muzzles.
I couldn't find that video, but here's one or two or three, you might enjoy since you own some Arabians. Such fire, delicate grace, beauty and intelligence.
I'm feeding Siete three times a day plus grazing plus hay, LOL. She is such a great momma, I have goats that I'm milking but would be a little scared to risk feeding the milk to the baby. I'm thinking of naming her Plata Mejor (Silver Best)
I've been researching stallions to pick the lucky boys I could afford and am finished for 2012. I'll be looking for next year and I should have six to breed.
Best of Siete
Betty's Champ (now in foal to Fort Prado)
Keyboard Cowgirl (now in foal to Fort Prado)
Resaca (now in foal to Albertus Maximus)
Beach House Baby
Show Appeal
those are my girls:)
El Prado and Silver Train
I remember you mentioned them before, but it's still fun to look them up AGAIN and look at their gorgeous photos & history.
El Prado is "all over" your foal crop. Hurray for the Celtic Spirit.
Really impressive bloodlines everywhere.
Runaway Groom (1979–2007) was a Canadian Hall of Fame Thoroughbred racehorse.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Runaway_Groom
Background
Bred by Gardiner Farms in Caledon, Ontario, Runaway Groom was sired by the prominent Nearco descendant Blushing Groom out of the mare Yonnie Girl. He was purchased as a yearling at the Fasig-Tipton sale in Kentucky by New Yorker Albert J. Coppola[2], who only realized later that the colt's birthplace meant he qualified for the Canadian Triple Crown series.
Racing career
Runaway Groom did not race at age two. Trained by New Yorker John DiMario, he began his career in the spring of 1982 at age three. Racing in Kentucky, he won two of his first four races, then was sent to Toronto's Woodbine Racetrack for the Queen's Plate, the most prestigious race in Canada and the first leg of the Canadian Triple Crown series. Under jockey Robin Platts, the lightly regarded Runaway Groom surprised fans and bettors as he finished a solid second behind Son of Briartic. In the ensuing Prince of Wales Stakes, Runaway Groom turned the tables on the Plate winner, winning it as well as the third leg of the Triple Crown, the Breeders' Stakes.
Brought to New York to compete, Runaway Groom won an allowance race at Belmont Park before competing in Saratoga Race Course's premier event, the Grade I Travers Stakes. In a very strong field, bettors sent the colt off at 13-1 odds but under Canadian jockey Jeffrey Fell, Runaway Groom won the race, marking the only time in American racing history that a horse has beaten the Kentucky Derby winner (Gato Del Sol), the Preakness Stakes winner (Aloma's Ruler), and the Belmont Stakes winner (Conquistador Cielo) in the same race.
For his 1982 performances, Runaway Groom earned Canadian Champion 3-Yr-Old- Colt honors. When he raced at age four in California, his conditioning was taken over by Charles Whittingham. His best graded stakes race result before he retired to stud duty was a third in the 1983 San Diego Handicap at Del Mar Racetrack.
Stud record
Sent to the Vinery breeding farm in Lexington, Kentucky, Runaway Groom had a long and successful stud career. He sired a number of Graded stakes race winners, including Cherokee Run (who won the 1994 Breeders' Cup Sprint), 2006 Sunshine Millions Oaks and 2007 Sunshine Millions Distaff winner Joint Effort, Japanese runner Machikane Hokushin, and multiple-stakes-winning millionaires Down The Aisle and Wekiva Springs.
In 2001, Runaway Groom was inducted into the Canadian Horse Racing Hall of Fame.[3] In February 2007, the 28-year-old horse was pensioned from stud duty, having sired sixty stakes race winners and twenty-seven graded stakes winners.
On June 8, 2007, Runaway Groom was humanely euthanized due to the infirmities of old age.
Great news!
I'll have fun researching the pedigrees and looking at the pretty pictures!!
Have you posted any pictures of the new baby? If so, where/what date are they posted and I'll find them.
I was just reading an article about "nurse mares" and their abandoned foals. Bearing in mind that I've never raised a foal from the get-go, I would think that supplementing the TB foal's calorie intake with bottle feeding of say, goat's milk, would be easier than using a nurse mare.
(I'm not referring to a situation where the foaling TB mare is totally unable to nurse or has died, but just doesn't produce enough milk for a robust strapping Thoroughbred foal.)
Howdy!!
I've been following Zenyatta, too. I have her on my FB, lol. Love that she is in foal to Tapit!!
I have a new filly out of Best of Siete (El Prado) by Silver Train. Baby is a super model with a bootie that is all engine :) She is such a cutie!! And, she is the first TB born on my farm:)
I have a second foal due any day now out of Beach House Baby (Runaway Groom) by Jeff n Patti (Include x Mapenge (El Prado))
I can't wait until that one is safely here, too. I actually got to help deliver the first foal and am praying for a safe delivery of the second.
And, I have two in foal to a son of El Prado (Fort Prado) for next year and one in foal to Albertus Maximus
And to think I didn't even have a TB on the farm two years ago....
Modern Medical Care is a Leading Cause of Death
By Dr. Mercola
http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2012/05/23/can-medicine-cause-death.aspx?e_cid=20120523_DNL_art_1
In 1776, Dr. Benjamin Rush, a signer of the Declaration of Independence, foretold a grim scenario that has now taken shape right before our eyes. He said:
"Unless we put medical freedom into the Constitution the time will come when medicine will organize itself into an undercover dictatorship. To restrict the art of healing to doctors and deny equal privileges to others will constitute the Bastille of medical science. All such laws are un-American and despotic."
Now, in 2012, we are very much facing this reality, as we live in an era where our medical freedom is increasingly under attack, and "healing" has been replaced with "treating" disease, most often with toxic chemicals and surgery. This drug-driven medical paradigm not only depends on the sacrifice and, some might say, torture, of animals in medical research, but also in many ways uses humans as sacrificial lambs
Modern Medical Care is a Leading Cause of Death
There were nearly 4.6 million drug-related visits to emergency rooms in the United States in 2009, with more than half due to adverse reactions to prescription medications – most of which were being taken exactly as prescribed. The fact of the matter is, as echoed by a study released by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMSHA), it is a mistake to assume there's no risk in prescribed medicines! As Sayer J writes on GreenMedInfo.com:
"The "medicines" themselves are often devoid of intrinsic value, being nothing more than rebranded and re-purposed chemicals, intended (though all too often failing) to be administered in sub-lethal concentrations. Indeed, many of these chemicals are too toxic to be legally released into the environment, and should never be administered intentionally to a human who is already sick. You need look no farther than a typical drug package insert to find proof that the side effects of most drugs far outnumber their purported beneficial effects.
These chemicals, in fact, are so highly leveraged against their true value (or lack thereof), that they can sell for as much as 500,000% percent from cost! Only medical/pharmaceutical and financial institutions (e.g. Federal Reserve) are legally empowered to generate the illusion that they are creating something of value out of nothing of value, on this scale."
Medical care is actually one of the leading causes of death in the U.S., with medical errors, adverse drug reactions, and hospital-acquired infections killing an unacceptable number of Americans each and every day! Drug-related ER visits jumped by more than half between 2004 and 2008, stirring health officials to look for ways to stop what has become a near-epidemic that often ends in death.
And when you consider that 2.7 million of those visits involved prescriptions for largely preventable health issues, you can't help but wonder why we have strayed so far from true health care in lieu of health treatments.
You may be tempted to point your finger at your physician. After all, he or she is on the "front lines" doing most of the prescribing and advising. But whether or not doctors succeed in upholding the Hippocratic Oath -- the promise to Do No Harm -- is not always entirely in their own hands.
The conventional medical system is simply not designed to give them that freedom. It's VITAL that you understand that regardless of their personal opinions, many times they're simply not allowed to offer you any other alternatives than what the "standard protocol" demands. As written on GreenMedInfo.com:
"Within our present dominant medical system, healing has not simply been forgotten but intentionally exorcized as it represents the antithesis of perpetual profitability which requires the incurability of the human body. Were the truth be told, and the body's self-regenerative capabilities acknowledged, the entire superstructure of drug-based medicine and hundreds of billions of dollars in revenue it generates annually, would crumble overnight."
Are You Intentionally Being Misled about Your Body's Innate Healing Abilities?
This issue runs much deeper than your physician's office. The entire medical system as it currently stands has been quite carefully orchestrated to make you believe that drugs, vaccinations, screening tests, and surgery are what is required to be well, while an assault has been launched against natural strategies and supplements that have proven vital to well-being for centuries.
For instance, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has launched a full-fledged war against the sale of raw milk, a substance that provides many natural beneficial and healing properties, even though between 1999 and 2010 there was an average of only 42 cases of illness per year attributed to raw milk, and that includes both "confirmed" and "presumed" cases. Meanwhile, they have allowed livestock producers to continue to add low doses of antibiotics to animal feed for growth promotion, even though this practice is undeniably linked to the spread of deadly antibiotic-resistant disease!
They have also issued new Draft Guidance on New Dietary Ingredients that threatens to remove some of your most commonly used supplements from the market, all while approving drugs, prescribed by doctors every day, that kill over 125,000 Americans a year.
They are but one government agency that is so thoroughly enmeshed in the drug-medical paradigm that they are utterly unable to protect you. The American Medical Association (AMA) has maintained a decades-long battle against "alternative" healing traditions, dating back to the 1920s and arguably even earlier. The courts eventually ruled in favor of the chiropractors in 1987, finding the AMA guilty of a conspiracy to take down the chiropractic profession, but their battle has continued on anyway.
According to Naturopathy Digest, the AMA and other medical groups justify their opposition to natural medicine, a primary principle of which is supporting your body's own innate healing potential, on the basis of three areas of concernx:
Quality of patient care
Patient safety
Quality of education of medical practitioners
As the article so eloquently points out, none of these arguments hold up, and most are based on medical and pharmaceutical industry propaganda. If they were TRULY concerned about patient care and safety, they would not be targeting natural medicine, which has an incredibly low incidence of adverse consequences and proven successes, but instead going after their own allopathic medical practices that are leaving a trail of death and destruction.
Other medical associations whose claims that they exist for the betterment of public health are entirely questionable include the following:
American Dental Association (ADA): Continues to support the use of mercury fillings and demonizes biological dentists who oppose the use of mercury in dentistry; continues to support fluoridation, in spite of the evidence it does more harm than good.
American Cancer Society (ACS): This charity has close ties to the mammography industry, the cancer drug industry, and the pesticide industry; has rampant conflicts of interest; consistently promotes drugs and screening procedures while ignoring environmental causes of cancer.
National Cancer Institute (NCI): Has spent billions of taxpayer dollars promoting treatments while ignoring strategies for preventing cancer; abundant ties to the cancer drug industry (for more information, read Samuel Epstein's new book, National Cancer Institute and American Cancer Society: Criminal Indifference to Cancer Prevention and Conflicts of Interest)
American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP): Claiming to be protecting your children, the AAP is largely funded by vaccine manufacturers but refuses to disclose just how much money it gets from them; partners with Congress to protect pediatricians and drug companies from liability for vaccine injuries, while preventing you from getting truthful vaccine information.
However, even the government is not at the top of the totem pole when it comes to this attack on your ability to access natural therapies and obtain optimal health. GreenMedInfo.com continues:
"Although the American Medical Association (AMA) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) behave as if they are at the top of this pyramid of power relations, they serve far lower on the hierarchy. While the government of the United States and American corporate lobbying groups may appear to be behind the FDA's shameless pandering to the interests of the drug companies, transnational corporations and organizations -- and a hand full of elite governing them -- are in fact pulling the strings."
Natural Therapies are Increasingly Under Attack, or Intentionally Suppressed
Did you know a cream containing eggplant extract, known as BEC and BEC5, appears to eliminate most non-melanoma skin cancers in several weeks time? Or that studies conducted so far show significant potential for the use of cannabis in the prevention and treatment of a wide range of health conditions, including cancer?
Have you heard about Dr. Nick Gonzalez, who has had remarkable success treating patients with some of the most lethal forms of cancer that conventional medicine cannot effectively address using a three-pronged nutritional approach?
There's a good chance you answered "no" to these questions, and that's not a coincidence. Information like this is not easy to come by in the mainstream press or from most conventional health care authorities, which is one of the primary reasons why I started this site. Alternatives to drugs and surgery are out there, but unless there is a profit to be had, you aren't likely to hear about them. In fact, the system is set up to make sure that you don't.
One of the prime examples of this is vitamin D.
Over 800 studies already show that vitamin D could have cancer-prevention and/or treatment possibilities. But the problem is that it's a natural substance that can't be patented as a simple supplement, meaning there's no real revenue in it, compared to a prescription brand drug. That's why many drug studies involving vitamins of any kind hinge on how the FDA defines drugs and supplements.
A drug is defined as a product meant for the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of a disease. A supplement is defined as a product that is meant to simply "supplement" or "enhance" a normal diet within the daily allowances recommended by the FDA. Retailers who sell supplements are not allowed to tell you that vitamin D can possibly "prevent, mitigate or cure" cancer without having the FDA accuse them of selling a drug that hasn't been approved through the proper FDA process.
That process of getting a drug to market costs an average $359 million and takes nearly 10 years – with a good portion of the money going directly to the FDA through user fees. Over the years these fees have become a major funding source for the FDA. What drug companies get in return is faster FDA reviews and drug approvals.
As a result, a kind of you-scratch-my-back-I'll-scratch-yours scenario has ensued, with drug companies maintaining major leverage over the FDA when it comes to protecting their revenue sources, including making sure the $60 billion-a-year supplement business doesn't get in the way of drug sales. The history of FDA laws and regulations on file at Harvard Law School, explains how years ago an FDA task force long ago established this policy...
"… to ensure that the presence of dietary supplements on the market does not act as a disincentive to drug development."
What Can You do to Support Real Health and Healing?
For starters, recognize that health does not come from a pill … and no disease is caused by a "drug or vaccine deficiency." As written on GreenMedInfo.com:
" … is there any greater absurdity than a medical model that treats the symptoms of disease with sub-lethal dosages of toxic chemicals and in which there is no attempt to uncover, understand or remove the causes of those imbalances?
After all, what disease has ever been found to be caused by a lack of a drug?
Is acid reflux caused by a lack of proton-pump inhibitors?
Is heart disease caused by a lack of statin drugs?
Is osteoporosis caused by a lack of Fosamax?
Is cancer caused by a lack of chemotherapy?
Is depression caused by a lack of Paxil?
Absolutely not! Then why would anyone consider it sound practice to use potentially toxic chemicals as a first-line treatment for conditions that are not caused by a lack of a chemical? To the contrary many diseases are caused exactly by culminative exposures to chemicals that not unlike drugs are biologically alien to the body, i.e we are treating poisoning with poisons! Can we dignify this approach by calling it medicine? Or, is it more accurately described as a form of sorcery?"
Until real systemic change takes place, your best health strategy is quite simply to employ and maintain a naturally healthy lifestyle that will optimize your body's innate healing abilities and minimize your need for the drug companies' latest concoctions. We are, however, working hard to change the system and help protect your health freedoms from corrupt influences like the drug industry; you can learn more about our newest initiative toward this end, Health Liberty, now.
It is, of course, of paramount importance to take control of your health so you can stay well naturally, without the use of drugs or even frequent conventional medical care. If you adhere to a healthy lifestyle, you most likely will not need medications in the first place. This encompasses several principles, including:
Proper Food Choices
For a comprehensive guide on which foods to eat and which to avoid, see my nutrition plan. Generally speaking, you should be looking to focus your diet on whole, unprocessed foods (vegetables, meats, raw dairy, nuts, and so forth) that come from healthy, sustainable, local sources, such as a small organic farm not far from your home.
For the best nutrition and health benefits, you will want to have raw food as a good portion of your diet. Personally, I aim to eat about 80-85 percent of my food raw, including raw eggs and humanely raised organic animal products that have not been raised on a CAFO (confined animal feeding operation).
Nearly as important as knowing which foods to eat more of is knowing which foods to avoid, and topping the list is fructose. Sugar, and fructose in particular, contributes to multiple disease processes in your body, not the least of which is insulin resistance, a major cause of accelerated aging.
Comprehensive Exercise Program, including High-Intensity Exercise like Peak Fitness
Even if you're eating the healthiest diet in the world, you still need to exercise to reach the highest levels of health, and you need to be exercising effectively, which means including not only core-strengthening exercises, strength training, and stretching but also high-intensity activities into your rotation. High-intensity, interval-type training boosts human growth hormone (HGH) production, which is essential for optimal health, strength and vigor. I've discussed the importance of Peak Fitness for your health on numerous occasions, so for more information please review this previous article.
Stress Reduction and Positive Thinking
You cannot be optimally healthy if you avoid addressing the emotional component of your health and longevity, as your emotional state plays a role in nearly every physical disease -- from heart disease and depression, to arthritis and cancer. Effective coping mechanisms are a major longevity-promoting factor in part because stress has a direct impact on inflammation, which in turn underlies many of the chronic diseases that kill people prematurely every day. Meditation, prayer, social support and exercise are all viable options that can help you maintain emotional and mental equilibrium.
Proper Sun Exposure to Optimize Vitamin D
We have long known that it is best to get your vitamin D from sun exposure, and if at all possible, I strongly urge you to make sure you're getting out in the sun on a daily basis or if this is not an option use a safe tanning bed.
Just keep in mind that it's really best to get ALL your vitamin D from the sun. It appears that vitamin D plays a crucial role in sulfur metabolism and when you swallow it orally it may not have the same benefit as getting it from the sun.
Take High Quality Animal-Based Omega-3 Fats
Animal-based omega-3 fat is a strong factor in helping people live longer, and many experts believe that it is likely the predominant reason why the Japanese are the longest lived people on the planet.
Avoid as Many Chemicals, Toxins, and Pollutants as Possible
This includes tossing out your toxic household cleaners, soaps, personal hygiene products, air fresheners, bug sprays, lawn pesticides, and insecticides, just to name a few, and replacing them with non-toxic alternatives.
If we look at the path, we do not see the sky.
We are earth people on a spiritual journey to the stars.
Our quest, our earth walk, is to look within, to know who we are,
to see that we are connected to all things,
that there is no separation,
only in the mind.

GST Steel: Bankruptcy and bailouts
Kansas City’s GST Steel was a successful company that had been making steel rods for 105 years when Mitt Romney and his partners took control in 1993. They cut corners and extracted profit from the business at every turn, placing it deeply in debt. When the company eventually declared bankruptcy, workers were denied their full pensions and health insurance, and the federal government was forced to step in and bail out the pension fund.

The Healer's Toolbox
Post date: Wednesday, 2/22 2012 at 8:00 pm by Capt. Randall
http://www.greenmedinfo.com/blog/healers-toolbox
[Guest Writer, Capt. Randall, is the author of Forbidden Healing, The Curiously Simple Solution To Disease]
In "The Healer's Grail" I outlined our predicament as Earth-dwelling biological entities. We operate on Solar ENERGY in the form of ELECTRONS and must consume Sun-charged phyto-nutrients and metabolize carbon bonds with the help of OXYGEN.
Opposing life today are mismanaged soils and electrolyte mineral deficiencies, oxidized/damaged fats, processed electron-stripped foods and all manner of toxic metals and organic poisons that lead to acidity, damaging free radical formation and electron shortages...ALL of which prevent oxygen delivery to mitochondrial motors and the generation of more electrons. When lacking charge, our cell structures become prone to oxidation, so membranes, enzymes, mitochondria and DNA all come under attack, OXIDATIVE STRESS! A "mechanical" approach to healing can address this energy shortage and electron imbalance using a toolbox full of common supplements.
Master the use of these basic "tools" first
Vitamin C
Baking soda (sodium bicarbonate)
Apple cider vinegar
Magnesium Oil
Oregano Oil
Lugol's iodine
MSM Sulfur Crystals
Food-grade Hydrogen Peroxide
Chlorella
The repair protocol begins with large electron inputs. When "mechanics" (healers) measure body voltages and pH to assess electron inventories, they find that where there is illness... there is acidity and shifting voltages. The first step obviously involves raising charge. This can be performed using large inputs of the electric vitamin, Vitamin C. Quantity is key here, and creating overwhelming surges in body charge is what initiates healing. (Loosely; electrons=voltage=pH=Oxidation Reduction Potential )
Counter-intuitively, the next order of business is to oxidize. Vitamin C not only restores electron inventories, but in IV application or in oral mega-doses to bowel-tolerance it releases hydrogen peroxide around cells, cleaning them of pathogens, toxins, waste materials and unwanted debris. These oxidative bursts mimic normal immune function in inflammatory response. Food grade hydrogen peroxide, MMS, ozone and even iodine are other helpful oxidizers and HBOT a super-oxygenator.
Then, to boost oxygen penetration, alkalize. When pure Vitamin C is mixed with baking soda, sodium bicarbonate, in a small glass of water, the acidity of ascorbic acid is neutralized, producing sodium ascorbate and CO2 bubbles. The left-over bicarb or even an added half-tsp of sodium bicarbonate alkalizes blood and acts as a pH buffer. K and Mg levels and sulfur intake should be optimized to enhance oxygen supplies.
Real nutrients are the long term answer. Fats are critical, but most folks use the wrong oil in their "crankcase." Easily oxidized feed-lot animal fats and unholy homogenized milk, heat processed "polyunsaturated " vegetable oils and all their hydrogenated misshapen trans molecules become incorporated into membranes, blood vessels and nervous system tissues where they diminish oxygen transport and surface charge. It's important to supply fresh Omegas, monounsaturates and forbidden saturated fats like butter, coconut oil and those from grass-fed animals. Sugars/carbs turn into bad fats when consumed in more than small amounts as they raise acidity. High sugar intake results in glycations, sugar-protein caramelizations that stick to various cell structures like Gorilla Glue.
We have lists of acid forming and alkalizing foods to guide us toward a slightly alkaline balance and we have ORAC ratings (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) to make-plain antioxidant values in food choices. Note the wide range of conditions impacted by single substances in GreenMedInfo.com abstract correlations. Note the universality of Vitamin C or turmeric or garlic.
Charge detractors include metal burdens like amalgams, root canals, bromine, chlorine, fluoride, intake of burnt/oxidized foods,"dead" water, electromagnetic pollution and the toxic mental frequencies of fear and stress. Detoxification and elimination are enhanced using chelators that catch toxic molecules mobilized by inputs of electrons and oxidizers above. Chlorella, clays, humic/fulvic acids and charcoal do that job.
Usually once biochemical balance is restored, mood and intelligence become elevated and one regains emotional equanimity. Some will have to become more mindful in order to benefit and realize that the condition of their body and their life's eventual destinations are purely the result of their own states of consciousness. Chance enters the equation only rarely. Personal responsibility implies freedom from all the externally inflicted rules and irrationalities of our enculturation... permitting the free expression of the spirit, the will. Higher states of mind empower electrochemical "placebo" healing within and impact surrounding matter via the universal energy matrix.
The Forbidden Healing protocol follows an electrochemical path, but there are many variations on the theme now being used successfully by innovative healers around the world. Breathing, acupuncture, electrical, magnetic, bio-frequency, aroma, sound, bio-photon and other energetic therapies cross-over into the realm of physics and enter healing through different doors. In the end, they all provide more electrons, stronger body charge, increased oxygen penetration and mitochondrial output, expressive DNA function and enzyme production, higher vibratory frequencies and normalized biochemistry. "Electrons is electrons," energy gathered... energy generated....any which way you can.
Understanding redox principles in health and healing ends the disorganized approaches common to both drug and natural therapies. When we accentuate Electrons and Oxygen, and eliminate acidic free radical varmints, optimal conditions can do nothing other than promote life. We have labeled hundreds of symptoms as individual diseases, yet basically all boil down to oxidative stress. This perspective is proven out every time efforts are directed at reversing it... when multiple "diseases" disappear. Just a new way of thinking.

If Running Marathons Is So Healthy Why Do People Die Running Them?
http://fitness.mercola.com/sites/fitness/archive/2012/05/11/peak-fitness-vs-running-marathons.aspx?e_cid=20120511_FNL_art_2
Why do People Die While Running Marathons?
Heatstroke can certainly be a factor, as can hyponatremia -- low sodium levels in the blood often caused by drinking too much water during exercise.
However, in the vast majority of cases, people die during marathons because of a heart attack.
Marathon running puts an extraordinary stress on your heart, one that your body was not designed for.
It's a classic example of a concept known as "the reverse effect" – where too much of something that is normally good for you can have the opposite impact. According to a study presented at the Canadian Cardiovascular Congress 2010 in Montreal, regular exercise reduces cardiovascular risk by a factor of two or three.
But the extended vigorous exercise performed during a marathon raises cardiac risk by seven-fold!ii Researchers found that during a marathon more than half of the segments in your heart lose function due to an increase in inflammation and a decrease in blood flow, and this temporary heart damage may play a role in marathon deaths.
Research by Dr. Arthur Siegel, director of Internal Medicine at Harvard's McLean Hospital, also found that long-distance running leads to high levels of inflammation that may trigger cardiac events,iii and a separate study published in Circulation found that running a marathon lead to abnormalities in how blood was pumped into the heart.iv
There's now overwhelming evidence indicating that conventional cardio or long-distance running is one of the worst forms of exercise there is, and even if you're one of the lucky ones who does not end up suffering from a sudden cardiac event in the middle of a race, in the long run your heart health can still suffer.
Long-Distance Running Damages Your Heart
Do you pride yourself on running mile upon mile, week after week? Do you love the challenge and adrenaline rush that comes from completing a marathon?
Let me preface the information that follows by saying this: as a former sub 3-hour marathon runner myself, I understand the drive that pushes many athletes and weekend warriors to compete in these strenuous events. But now that I have examined the research, I firmly believe doing so may put your heart at risk. For example, two recent studies showed:
Heart damage after lifelong cardio: In a study published in the Journal of Applied Physiology,v researchers recruited a group of extremely fit older men. All of them were members of the 100 Marathon club, meaning athletes who had completed a minimum of 100 marathons. If running marathons provided cardiovascular benefit this would certainly be the group you would want to seriously examine. So what did they find?
Half of the older lifelong athletes showed some heart muscle scarring as a result, and they were specifically the men who had trained the longest and hardest.
Heart scarring after elite cardio training: An animal study published in the journal Circulationvi was designed to mimic the strenuous daily exercise load of serious marathoners over the course of 10 years. All the rats had normal, healthy hearts at the outset of the study, but by the end most of them had developed "diffuse scarring and some structural changes, similar to the changes seen in the human endurance athletes."
Is There a Better Way to Exercise?
Science now suggests that the best fitness regimen is actually one that mimics the movements of our hunter-gatherer ancestors, which included short bursts of high-intensity activities, but not long-distance running such as is required to complete a marathon. The idea behind "hunter-gatherer fitness" is to closely emulate the actions that ancient man took on a daily basis. This is what your body is hard-wired for, after all, and includes such attributes as:
A variety of exercises performed regularly (weight training, cardio, stretching, etc.)
Alternate difficult days with easier days
Interval training sessions performed once or twice a week
Weight training at least twice a week
Ample time for rest after physical exertion
Your exercise program should be challenging, as it was for our ancestors, but it should not be excessive and it should be paired with ample time for recovery. Just as too much strenuous exercise can hurt your heart, too little will not be enough to give you the benefits.
The good news is, the most recent research shows that relatively short bursts of intense exercise—even if done only a total of a few minutes each week—can deliver many of the health and fitness benefits you get from doing hours of conventional exercise.
By doing just three minutes of High Intensity Training (HIT) like Peak Fitness a week for four weeks, you could see significant changes in important health indices. You don't even need a gym to perform high-intensity interval exercise. It can be performed with virtually any type of exercise, with or without equipment. You can just as easily perform interval training by walking or running outdoors as you can using a recumbent bike or an elliptical machine.
While it's theoretically possible to reap valuable results with as little as three minutes once a week, it might be more beneficial doing them two or three times a week for a total of four minutes of intense exertion, especially if you are not doing strength training. You do not need to do them more often than that however. In fact, doing it more frequently than two or three times a week can be counterproductive, as your body needs to recover between sessions.
One of my favorite new ways of doing high-intensity exercise is sprinting on the beach, and I actually am in the process of completing a video on that. But if you do sprinting be very careful to always stretch your hamstrings first. Stretching is NOT optional if you are going to sprint, as there is a high likelihood you will injure yourself. I demonstrate a very effective stretching program on the video but in the meantime you can view my elliptical Peak Fitness video to get an idea of how hard you need to work out.

EARTHING
GO BAREFOOT!!
http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2012/04/29/james-oschman-on-earthing.aspx?e_cid=20120429_SNL_Art_1
My own introduction to the concept of earthing was also through Jeff Spencer, some five or six years ago. I found it very intriguing, although I initially approached it with some skepticism. As you will soon see, it's a simple concept—to some it may appear too simple.
Fortunately, Dr. Oschman is now able to provide the scientific groundwork for understanding what actually occurs. In fact, his team has now published about a dozen papers on this topic.
What Happens to You When You Walk Barefoot?
Your skin in general is a very good conductor. You can connect any part of your skin to the Earth, but if you compare various parts there is one that is especially potent, and that's right in the middle of the ball of your foot; a point known to acupuncturists as Kidney 1 (K1). It's a well-known point that conductively connects to all of the acupuncture meridians and essentially connects to every nook and cranny of your body. Interestingly, grounding—or rather the lack thereof—has a lot to do with the rise of modern diseases.
How is this?
Well, Dr. Oschman's research into grounding has led him to better understand inflammation. I've discussed before, chronic inflammation is a primary cause of virtually all disease, from diabetes to cancer. And by looking at what happens during grounding, the answer to why chronic inflammation is so prevalent, and what is needed to prevent it, is becoming better understood.
When you're grounded there's a transfer of free electrons from the Earth into your body. And these free electrons are probably the most potent antioxidants known to man.
These antioxidants are responsible for the clinical observations from grounding experiments, such as:
Beneficial changes in heart rate
Decreased skin resistance
Decreased levels of inflammation
To better understand the science behind what happens during grounding and how it impacts the inflammatory response, Dr. Oschman begins by explaining what happens when you experience an injury.
"Even the slightest bump, if you bump the door, your immune system immediately responds by sending white blood cells (neutrophils) to the place of injury…
The neutrophils secrete a Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS)… called free radicals, in what's referred to as an oxidative burst... These are like Pac-Man. They are very important molecules that tear things apart. If bacteria have gotten through your skin, these free radicals will destroy the bacteria very quickly. If you have damaged cells, the free radicals will break them apart so that there is a space for healthy cells to move in and repair the tissues.
That's known as the inflammatory response.
What we have discovered that is truly profound is this: we now understand why you get the inflammatory response, which has five characteristics: pain, redness, heat, loss of range of motion, and swelling. All of those are the five hallmarks of inflammation and it turns out that that doesn't have to happen.
Inflammation, which in medicine is considered an important part of the healing process, is really an artifact caused by lack of electrons in your tissues. What happens is, the neutrophils deliver the Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) to the site of injury, but in so doing, some of those free radicals can leak into the surrounding tissue and damage healthy tissue. That's what creates the inflammatory response".
Interestingly, grounding research has now discovered that if you place your feet on the ground after an injury (or on a grounded sheet, or place grounding patches on the balls of your feet), electrons will migrate into your body and spread through your tissues. Any free radicals that leak into the healthy tissue will immediately be electrically neutralized. This occurs because the electrons are negative, while the free radicals are positive, so they cancel each other out.
"So really what is happening with grounding or earthing is that you're protecting your body from -- I call it, collateral damage," Dr. Oschman says. "Damage that was not intended to take place but does take place because we have disconnected ourselves from the Earth by putting rubber and plastic on the bottoms of our shoes."
Earthing as an Anti-Aging Strategy
One of dominant theories on aging is the free radical theory, which is that aging occurs because of accumulative damage to your body caused by free radicals. You get free radicals when you have an injury or chronic inflammation, from breathing, and from the food you eat, among other things. While you don't want to completely eliminate ALL free radicals, you do want to maintain a healthy balance of antioxidant electrons in your body to ensure the damage from free radicals doesn't' get out of hand.
Earthing can help accomplish this delicate balance. There are three kinds of sub-models of the aging process caused by free radicals.
DNA damage and mutation due to free radical damage
The mitochondrial theory. Mitochondria in every cell in your body carry out oxidative metabolism and a byproduct is free radicals. Eventually the mitochondria wear out or self-destruct due to excess free radicals
The protein cross linking theory, which explains why you get wrinkles in your skin. The proteins stick to each other, reducing the efficiency of enzymes
"It looks to me, from my study of biophysics and cell biology, like the body is designed with a semi-conductive fabric that connects everything in the body, including inside of every cell," Dr. Oschman says.
"I refer to this system as the living matrix. Those electrons that enter the bottom of your foot can move anywhere in your body. Any place where a free radical forms, there are electrons nearby that can neutralize that free radical and prevent any of those processes: mitochondrial damage, cross linking of proteins, and mutation or genetic damage.
So the whole fabric is basically an antioxidant defense system that is in every part of our body.
We have this material called ground substance which is part of the connective tissue. It goes everywhere in the body. It's a gel material and it stores electrons. So that if you go barefoot, you will take in electrons and your body will store them, and they will be available at any point where you might have an injury, or any point where a free radical might form..."
How Grounding Affects Your Blood
Another very important discovery, and one of the most recent, is that grounding thins your blood, making it less viscous. This discovery can have a profound impact on cardiovascular disease, which is now the number one killer in the world. Virtually every aspect of cardiovascular disease has been correlated with elevated blood viscosity. Dr. Sinatra has been coaching Dr. Oschman's team in how to measure blood viscosity using a method called zeta potential. It measures the potential on your red blood cells by determining how fast they migrate in an electrical field.
It turns out that when you ground to the earth, your zeta potential quickly rises, which means your red blood cells have more charge on their surface, which forces them apart from each other. This action causes your blood to thin and flow easier. It also causes your blood pressure to drop.
Another obvious implication of this is that by repelling each other, your red blood cells are less inclined to stick together and form a clot. Blood clots don't have to be very big to form like a pulmonary embolus that would kill you instantly, so this is a significant benefit. Additionally, if your zeta potential is high, which grounding can facilitate, you not only decrease your heart disease risk but also your risk of multi-infarct dementias, where you start losing brain tissue due to micro-clotting in your brain.
The Best Surfaces for Grounding
Clearly, the simplest way to ground is to walk barefoot outside when safe to do so. But what about urban or city dwellers who are surrounded by asphalt and concrete? Can you ground on those? And what about natural surfaces—which ones are the most effective? There are indeed significant differences between various surfaces.
The ideal location for walking barefoot is the beach, close to or in the water, as sea water is a great conductor. Your body also contains mostly water, so it creates a good connection.
A close second would be a grassy area, especially if it's covered with dew, which is what you'd find if you walk early in the morning. According to Dr. Oschman, concrete is a good conductor as long as it hasn't been sealed. Painted concrete does not allow electrons to pass through very well. Materials like asphalt, wood, and typical insulators like plastic or the soles of your shoes, will not allow electrons to pass through and are not suitable for barefoot grounding.
Why Living in a High-Rise Could be Detrimental to Your Health
Additionally, there's a major difference between standing outside in your bare feet and standing outside in shoes. And, how high up you are, off the surface of the Earth, without being grounded also matters. Why is this?
Dr. Oschman explains:
"The Earth's surface is electrically charged and can push electrons up in your body. So from the top of your head to the Earth, there is a potential, which you don't feel because it doesn't cause any any particular current to flow, even though it can be a couple of hundred volts. If it did, it would give you a shock.
What happens is when the weather changes is that the potential can go up enormously. It can go from a hundred volts per meter to 10,000 volts per meter. That's pre lightning. We're talking about the potential that causes lightning to come to the earth. That voltage is well known and well understood…
This is the potential between the surface of the earth and the ionosphere, hundreds of miles up, which is very electrically active; charged by the solar wind, the charged particles that come from the sun. Those charged particles eventually reach the Earth by lightning and electrify the entire surface of the Earth so that anywhere you touch the Earth, there are electrons. They come originally from the sun, to the ionosphere, to the earth.
There is no lightning happening right here right now but somewhere there is lightning, a constant current flow from the ionosphere to the earth. Those are the electrons that your body needs for your immune system to function properly."
What this means is that the higher up you are, separated from the surface of the Earth, the higher this potential would be, and the worse the implications for your health if you're not grounded. For example, if you live on the 20th floor of a high-rise and you're not grounded (using grounding technology, of course), the consequences to your health will be more significant than if you lived on the first floor. Likewise, when you wear rubber- or plastic-soled shoes, you are effectively shielding yourself from this beneficial influx of electrons from the Earth. For optimal immune function, you want these electrons to enter your body, so make sure you take your shoes off now and then!
Easy Ways to Incorporate Grounding Into Your Daily Life
Exercising barefoot outdoors is one of the most wonderful, inexpensive and powerful ways of incorporating earthing into your daily life and will also help speed up tissue repair and ease muscle pain due to strenuous exercise.
Virginia-bred Bodemeister and jockey Mike Smith winning the $1,000,000 Arkansas Derby horse race at Oaklawn Park in Hot Springs, Ark., Saturday, April 14, 2012. Bodemiester was bred by Audley Farm in Berryville, VA.

BERRYVILLE -- The light-purple sign on the spacious north side of Va. 7 catches the eyes of many passersby with its painting of a horse and the title “Audley Farm.”
But unless they stop to read the smaller print etched on the nearby historical marker, they may not know the full story behind the 260-year-old house on the 3,000-acre estate.
Today, the property is home to one of the nation’s leading horse farms.
But before it was known for turning out horses such as America’s first Triple Crown winner — a chestnut thoroughbred named Sir Barton — it was the home of Nellie Parke Custis.
She was Martha Washington's granddaughter and the adopted daughter of George Washington.
Custis lived there from 1839, after her husband’s death, until 1852, when she died.
Audley was founded in 1749, when Lord Fairfax granted a 3,000-acre estate to Col. George William Fairfax, according to Audley records.
George Washington's cousin Warner Washington bought half of the estate in 1764, and it remained in the hands of the Washington family for 138 years.
For the past 32 years, the farm has been owned by the von Baumbach and Boehringer family of Germany.

Autism & The New MMS Seminar
(in English)
in Puerto Vallarta,Mexico
This is another very important development of the Seminar in Puerto Vallarta, probably our most important development at this time. Kerri Rivera will be teaching the MMS protocols for healing autism. Her efforts and protocols have resulted in 38 children becoming fully recovered from autism in the past 20 months.
As more and more children participate in Kerri's protocols for longer and longer periods of time they are beginning to come through as fully recovered at a faster rate. No one else in the world has brought about as many fully recovered Autistic children during that time. Kerri developed the protocols for healing autism over the past 20 months as she responded to more than 2000 different cases of autism.
NOW COME TO OUR SEMINAR AND IN ADDITON TO LEARNING ALL OF OUR PROTOCOLS FOR HEALING MANKINDS DISEASES, LEARN KERRI'S IMPORTANT PROTOCOLS FOR HEALING AUTISM. She will be here to teach you and guide you as you do all of the protocols. She will not only show you how to prepare the MMS for each protocol, but she will also have you do it right there in class.
In addition to learning the successful protocols for autism you will also be learning those for cancer, hepatitis A, B, and C, malaria, skin diseases and essentially all the diseases of mankind. This information is available in my books and videos but learning here is experiential and far beyond just reading a book. Unfortunately, Kerri's book is not available yet, so this is the only place you can get the data at this time. The book will be available in several months.
Kerri just returned this month from Puerto Rico, where she spoke at the largest conference in Latin America. The only and largest all Spanish autism conference in the world, CURANDO EL AUTISMO. She gave more than 70 individual consults to families for specific protocols for each child while there and did a one hour presentation to an audience of over 3000. More than 2000 families are doing her protocols and she continues to do various seminars concerning autism at the rate of about 1 seminar per
month in Latin America. She has been invited to speak at the largest English speaking seminar in the world concerning autism, AutismOne in Chicago next month.
This seminar will be held starting Monday morning May 7 until Friday evening May 11. Those of you who understand sickness and healing will understand that this is the greatest seminar to ever be given anywhere in the world. People Helping People, is
changing the world. Our Church is at the forefront of this movement. We need your help. Earth needs your help. What better game to play than to be a part of changing earth forever. We – will – do – it. But even if we didn't, what better game to play than this game. Get in at the start of the greatest earth game of all time.
The Details: Come Sunday May 6, leave Saturday may 12. This allows you to be on time for Class Monday morning, and time after class Friday evening to see the beach and shops. You can have a meal on us Saturday morning before getting on your plane or you could vacation for a few days if you so desire.
Basically Archbishop Jim Humble will be here, Bishop Kerri Rivera will be here, and Rev Dr Janet Hedlund will be here plus students from around the world. Rev Dr Janet is listed last but is far from least. She has cured hundreds of many different diseases having been using MMS for more than 2 years. She has cured cancer patients that had been given only days to live and has handled many other diseases. She will be part of our staff and will be doing most everything including lectures concerning things she has done.
The cost is $1500 (two people to a room) at the local hotel which is in walking distance of our seminar class rooms. Private rooms are $250 extra. Our seminar class building and land covers 5 acres and is less than 5 minutes from the airport here in Puerto Vallarta. Husband and wife get a $300 discount.
The classes include workshops for every Sacrament of the Church. This includes a day of protocol 1000, 2000, 3000 and also 4000. You will learn to use DMSO along with MMS, CDS, and MMS2. You will do 25 short protocols that bring health to various parts of the body. For example each student learns to put it in his or someone else's eyes, ears, and nose. You learn to spray your body, hair and head by actually doing it. You will learn to take care of all the diseases that are present on the skin of the body. You learn what to do in the case of a heart attack, or a stroke, or high blood pressure, and all the other various diseases. You learn the basics of treating animals, of treating children, and old people. Please think a minute about what I have just said. This is the most fantastic course anyone could take so far in the world. This course, I guarantee will save your life sometime between now and the time that you would otherwise die. No one has ever been sorry they have taken the course, so far as I know.
Please come. I want to meet you all. All who come are totally free to ask Jim, Kerri, or Janet all the questions they wish. Jim stays up until 2 AM nightly and will answer questions until then. Kerri and Janet go to bed a little earlier. I am looking to see you sometime Sunday the 6th and get you settled in.
With love,
Archbishop Jim Humble

Secretariat’s Brother
http://www.secretariat.com/spotlight/secretariats-brother/
We are sad to announce that Straight Flush passed away on September 3rd, 2007. “Daddy”, as he was affectionately called by those around him, died peacefully in his sleep in his favorite spot beneath the canopy of a large eucalyptus tree. Straight Flush’s rescue will forever warm our hearts and remind us of all the efforts of those who not only care, but also act, to make a difference in the welfare of these beautiful animals. We will miss the old guy but can find solace in the fact that he lived a full life and was happy right to the very end. Our thanks to Stephanie Diaz, April Ward, Neal Arave, Bill Doolittle, and equineline.com for their help in sharing his amazing story as shown in its original form from February of 2007 below.
Counting His Carrot Cakes
Rescued brother of Secretariat is alive and well at age 32
by Bill Doolittle Feb 2007
A few years ago an old horse, down on his luck and likely down to his last days, got the proverbial “phone call from the governor.”
Horse enthusiast and racing writer Stephanie Diaz ponied up $200 to save the life of Straight Flush, a former racehorse and stallion who was long past any utilitarian horse-use. Down almost to hide and bones, Straight Flush stood stoically in a muddy Texas cattle feed lot, awaiting a final ride to a horsemeat slaughterhouse.
Instead, Diaz saw to it that the old horse was saved – retired to a California ranch where he could canter along his paddock fence, keep an eye out for the occasional carrot from a friend, and live out his days in sunshine.
That was in 1999, when Straight Flush was merely 24 years old. On Jan. 1 – the universal birthday for all thoroughbreds registered in North America – Straight Flush turned 32, making him one of the oldest horses you will ever meet. Alive and well, and just doing great.
Best of all: he’s Secretariat’s brother. Well, technically he is a half-brother, but more on that later.
That’s right. Straight Flush, the 32-year-old, is a brother of the most famous racehorse in the world and a living reminder, for some, of the Camelot days of Penny Chenery’s Meadow Stable of three decades ago. Back when the 1973 Triple Crown champion Secretariat and company ruled the racing world.
Straight Flush, himself, didn’t do much ruling. Despite his regal pedigree and top-of-the game connections, the brother of Secretariat proved not to be a classic-winning racehorse. Nor was he prepotent stallion when retired to stud. And over the years his worth gradually diminished until he had no worth at all. From highest hopes, Straight Flush slowly drifted into oblivion. Lost, and almost forgotten.
The story begins with an urgent e-mail message …
“Someone sent me an e-mail saying there was a brother of Secretariat who was in trouble,” recalled Diaz. “They’d seen a note on clipclop.com that he was for sale. He was on a feed lot in Texas and surely at the end of the line. His owner didn’t have any potential buyers nearby and just thought that as a brother of Secretariat, he should see if someone wanted him.”
The softhearted Texas feed lot owner was right. Someone did want a brother of Secretariat – even if he was 24-years old at the time. Diaz registered a bid of $200 and pretty much forgot about it, thinking she’d gotten the bidding going and someone would end up with the horse. A few days later a message arrived saying ‘Congratulations, you won the auction.’
“I contacted the owner and he told me that watching him, knowing where he was headed, he just felt terrible, but he wasn’t able to afford to keep him,” said Diaz. Diaz found that Straight Flush had been a stallion for a number of years in the Southwest, bopping around from one farm to another. Despite limited success, there was always somebody new willing to take a chance on a stallion with his pedigree, a brother of Secretariat. He was bred to both thoroughbred and quarter horse mares. But he never got lucky with a real runner.
This time, however, Straight Flush had been dealt a winning hand.
Over the years, Diaz has cooridinated for the rescue and retirement of scores of racehorses, including the top stakes gelding Letthebighossroll. By phone, Diaz arranged for a special box to be constructed to help stabilize Straight Flush for a long van trip to a new home in California.
When Diaz finally laid eyes on her purchase, she wasn’t dismayed that the old guy was skinny and a little down in health. With proper feeding and care, horses can often rally to good health. What surprised her was the horse was such a looker.
“Just the longest legs you’ve ever seen,” Diaz marveled. “And that big, beautiful, massive neck. He must have gotten that from his sire, Riva Ridge. And he’s a sweet horse, too, with a big, soft eye. Plain bay, wide face, with a kind expression.”
For original owner Penny Chenery, the description was almost as certain as his lip tattoo. Diaz’s observations matched Chenery’s memories of long ago days when Straight Flush was born into her barn – the son of Secretariat’s stablemate Riva Ridge, who had won the 1972 Derby.
“He certainly did resemble Riva Ridge,” said Chenery, remembering the stablemate of Secretariat who won the 1972 Kentucky Derby. “He had that head and neck like Riva. And he was always a nice, quiet, serene horse.”
Diaz arranged for Straight Flush to make his new home at a training ranch in Hemet, Calif., near Riverside, owned by veteran horseman Neal Arave.
Where Straight Flush has blossomed.
“He’s got the prettiest coat you’ve ever seen on a horse,” said Arave, who started with horses as a boy in Idaho. “He looks like about 14 years-old. Oh, he’s a little down in the back, but he runs and plays and has a good, old time.”
Hemet seems to be a haven for famous old trainers and famous old horses. Quarter horse Hall-of-Famer Blane Schvaneveldt and California thoroughbred training legend Farrell Jones have ranches nearby, and the neighborhood includes the retirement homes of such racing luminaries as Music Merci, Fortyninerdays, Cardmania and the aforementioned Letthebighossroll. “A bunch of retired millionaire horses, is what it is,” quipped Diaz. “You figure they stand around all day and talk about their investments.”
A nice life for a horse, agreed Arave.
“I have seven or eight of them old horses, and they all have nice pastures where they can be turned out,” he said. “I like horses, but you like the good ones a little better than the ones that have never done nothing. They’ve kind of earned the right to retire.”
Photographer April Ward recently visited Straight Flush and found the horse happily enjoying his days in the desert sunshine.
“There’s a little water course that runs through his corral, and he was dancing around in it, tapping his toes and splashing the water with his hooves,” said Ward. “He’s an awesome horse for his age. I was following him around for photos and he was loving the attention – just playing it up for all it was worth.”
And the old stallion hasn’t forgotten his working days.
“He started strutting down the fence line, showing his stuff for the mares in the next pen,” Ward said. “Then he’d stop and stick his nose over the fence, like he was saying to them: ‘Yeah, I’ve still got it.’ ”
Probably does, too.
Of course, at 32, Straight Flush has a few worn out parts. He might be “long in the tooth,” but he’s not long on teeth.
“But we just had the horse dentist out to look at him again, and he’s doing fine with no teeth,” said Arave. “Well, he’s got a couple teeth on the bottom of his mouth, but none on the top.”
Nutrition, of course, is a paramount consideration in the care of retired horses – especially racehorses who have always been fed by caretakers, rather than making do for themselves by foraging in a field. The loss of teeth is an additional concern. But Arave has developed a special soft diet for older horses that he feeds Straight Flush. “And he can munch on hay,” added the trainer. “That gives him something to do.”
Chenery is thrilled with Straight Flush’s rescue.
“You’re always delighted when they have a happy ending,” said Chenery, who has long been a leading force in horse retirement.
Through her official website Secretariat.com, Chenery supports the efforts of the Thoroughbred Retirement Foundation and its Secretariat Center in Lexington, Kentucky, which is instrumental in finding new homes for former racehorses.
“I’m not so naive as to think we can rescue every horse,” said Chenery. “But we can rescue the ones who are in danger – like on their way to that … place, New Holland.”
That “place” would be a slaughterhouse in New Holland, Pennsylvania, one of four sites in the United States where horses of all breeds are slaughtered for meat. The doomed horses bring about 50 cents a pound.
Many sports fans were shocked when 1986 Kentucky Derby winner Ferdinand was slaughtered for meat in Japan in 2002. A stud career there proved unsuccessful, and he was simply slaughtered.
Activists are especially appalled by the conditions leading to the slaughterhouse.
“Just think of hauling forty horses in a trailer – double-decked, packed in there,” lamented Chenery. “They can’t even raise their heads.”
Chenery notes that retirement isn’t the only option for avoiding the slaughterhouse. Sound thoroughbred racehorses make excellent “hunter-jumpers” for amateur equine competition, or just plain riding horses. “Ideally,” she said, “when they are done racing, they can be trained for another career.”
What makes Straight Flush’s rescue particularly remarkable is that he was still around to be rescued.
Thirty-two is a Methuselah-like age for a horse. Many horses live to be 20, some even 25. But that’s about it. Count Fleet, the Triple Crown champion of 1943, lived to be 33. Secretariat died at age 19. Seattle Slew made it to 28. The oldest living Kentucky Derby winner is the filly Genuine Risk, now 30, and turned out in Virginia.
No one knows exactly who is the oldest living horse, but Straight Flush is one of them. A mixed Morgan breed horse named Copper, living in Missouri, is said be 51.
Among thoroughbreds, whose births are carefully registered and who carry lip tattoos that certify their identity, Straight Flush is the same age as fellow geriatric turf titan John Henry, who raced until he was nine and retired as the world’s leading money winner. The old guys actually met once in a stakes race in Atlantic City in 1979 with John Henry finishing second and Straight Flush fifth.
There are no “official” records of the oldest thoroughbred who ever lived. It is generally acknowledged that the longest-lived thoroughbred was Merrick, who died in 1941 at the age of 38.
So at 32, Straight Flush is way out ahead of the age curve – and hasn’t been nearly as pampered as some of those Derby winners.
Which is exactly what Straight Flush was bred to be.
Kinship is different in horses than humans.
The great thoroughbred stallion sires (the fathers of horses) are an elite few. A top stallion may be bred to as many as 100 mares (mothers) each year, producing, ideally, 100 foals. In other words, very few fathers spread around lots of mothers. And the matings change. Many mares are sent to a new stallion each season as breeders search for that miracle mating that will produce a champion racehorse.
With all that “sleeping around,” the kinship of horses is logically based on female families. Straight Flush and Secretariat are both sons of the famous broodmare Somethingroyal, and thus brothers in her female family line. Technically, they are half-brothers since their fathers were different. Bold Ruler sired Secretariat, while Straight Flush was sired by Riva Ridge. Somethingroyal produced 18 offspring by 12 different stallions, so Straight Flush had 17 brothers and sisters.
The important thing about all this is Somethingroyal the mom was a key part of the famous Meadow Stable family. The horses she foaled at Meadow Stud, in Virginia, all started out in Chenery’s family’s Meadow Stable. That included, besides Secretariat, such famous runners as Syrian Sea, First Family and Sir Gaylord. The latter had been the favorite for the 1962 Kentucky Derby, but was injured the day before the Derby and did not get to “Run for the Roses.” Sir Gaylord was sent to stud, where he became one of the sport’s top stallions. It was just that kind of family – all coming from the wonder mom Somethingroyal.
So when Straight Flush came along – taking his name from mom Somethingroyal — and being a brother to one Derby winner, and sired by another, the colt naturally carried the highest hopes.
“Oh, I remember him well,” said Chenery. ” He was right in there in the mix. He was a strong, pretty horse. But unfortunately he wasn’t as precocious as Secretariat. That shouldn’t damn him, he just didn’t have Secretariat’s high speed. He could run with better horses, but didn’t have that blaze to beat them.”
Straight Flush was foaled in 1975 and came to the races in 1977. Winless that fall of his two-year-old year, he was sent to California for the winter meet at Santa Anita.
“We were riding high in those days,” Chenery recalled. “I had a string on the East Coast and the West Coast, and I actually spent much of my time in California then. Steve DiMauro trained the California group.”
Straight Flush notched his first victory Feb. 12 at Santa Anita, with jockey Bill Shoemaker aboard. Chenery ran him back in the Santa Catalina Stakes, a prep race for the Santa Anita Derby. But the best he could do was sixth. To set that in context, a week later at the same track a 3-year-old named Affirmed won another prep for the Santa Anita Derby on his way to the 1978 Triple Crown.
With hopes for the biggest of racing dreams dashed, Straight Flush was sold to another barn. He ran through 1978 and ’79, winning twice. Probably the most interesting fact of his racing career was that he was ridden by a veritable who’s who of jockeys, including Ron Turcotte, Jean Cruguet, Sandy Hawley, Cash Asmussen, Laffit Pincay, Eddie Maple, Angel Cordero, Steve Cauthen and Bill Shoemaker. But he just never broke out of the “allowance” level ranks.
In the fall of 1979 Straight Flush was retired from racing to become a stallion. Records show that he stood at a farm in Vivian, Louisiana, and then later at Paradise Farms in Longview, Texas. It is believed Straight Flush may have served as a stallion as far west as Colorado, siring 176 foals. The best of his sons and daughters was probably Texas Echo, who won 18 races in a long career. But there were no real stars. Winding down in value over the years, he probably came back to Texas as part of a stock dispersal, an old throw-in horse arriving finally on that feed lot where his only future was no future at all.
Until, that is, he got a little help from his friends – the compassionate feed lot owner, the horse lover who noticed an Internet posting about a horse in trouble, and then Diaz and Arave.
And of course, the friends of Straight Flush knew how to celebrate his Jan. 1 birthday:
“We had carrot cake for him!” said Diaz. “And he ate it, too. He loves carrots any way he can get them.”
Arave chuckled.
“Is it just a bunch of soft-hearted women?” he asked. “Well, you’ve got to give them more credit than that.”
Straight Flush, too. You’ve got to give Secretariat’s brother credit for hanging in there all these years- 32 and still prancing!
And maybe thinking about breaking Merrick’s old-age record of 38. Just seven more carrot cakes to go!
How much control do you really have over your own life in general, and your health in particular?

Epigenetics Shatters "The Central Dogma"
Eriksen goes on to discuss something called "The Central Dogma" of molecular biology, which states that biological information is transferred sequentially and only in one direction (from DNA to RNA to proteins).
The ramification of buying into the central dogma is that it leads to belief in absolute determinism, which leaves you utterly powerless to do anything about the health of your body; it's all driven by your genetic code, which you were born with.
However, scientists have completely shattered this dogma and proven it false. You actually have a tremendous amount of control over how your genetic traits are expressed—from how you think to what you eat and the environment you live in.
You may recall the Human Genome Projectii , which was launched in 1990 and completed in 2003. The mission was to map out all human genes and their interactions, which would than serve as the basis for curing virtually any disease. Alas, not only did they realize the human body consists of far fewer genes than previously believed, they also discovered that these genes do not operate as previously predicted.
In the featured article, Eriksen describes the experiments of John Cairns, a British molecular biologist who in 1988 produced compelling evidence that our responses to our environment determine the expression of our genes. A radical thought, for sure, but one that has been proven correct on multiple occasions since then.
Your Emotions Regulate Your Genetic Expression
As if genes changing expression in response to environmental factors such as nutrients wasn't enough, other researchers have demonstrated that this "environment" that your genes respond to also includes your conscious thoughts, emotions, and unconscious beliefs. Cellular biologist Bruce Lipton, PhD., is one of the leading authorities on how emotions can regulate genetic expression, which are explained in-depth in his excellent books The Biology of Belief, and Spontaneous Evolution.
Science has indeed taken us far beyond Newtonian physics, which says you live in a mechanical universe. According to this belief, your body is just a biological machine, so by modifying the parts of the machine, you can modify your health. Also, as a biological machine, your body is thought to respond to physical "things" like the active chemicals in drugs, and by adjusting the drugs that modify your machinery, doctors can modify and control health. However, with the advent of quantum physics, scientists have realized the flaws in Newtonian physics, as quantum physics shows us that the invisible, immaterial realm is actually far more important than the material realm. In fact, your thoughts may shape your environment far more than physical matter!
According to Dr. Lipton, the true secret to life does not lie within your DNA, but rather within the mechanisms of your cell membrane.
Each cell membrane has receptors that pick up various environmental signals, and this mechanism controls the "reading" of the genes inside your cells. Your cells can choose to read or not read the genetic blueprint depending on the signals being received from the environment. So having a "cancer program" in your DNA does not automatically mean you're destined to get cancer. Far from it. This genetic information does not ever have to be expressed...
What this all means is that you are not controlled by your genetic makeup. Instead, your genetic readout (which genes are turned "on" and which are turned "off") is primarily determined by your thoughts, attitudes, and perceptions!
The major problem with believing the myth that your genes control your life is that you become a victim of your heredity. Since you can't change your genes, it essentially means that your life is predetermined, and therefore you have very little control over your health. With any luck, modern medicine will find the gene responsible and be able to alter it, or devise some other form of drug to modify your body's chemistry, but aside from that, you're out of luck… The new science, however, reveals that your perceptions control your biology, and this places you in the driver's seat, because if you can change your perceptions, you can shape and direct your own genetic readout.
This new science also reveals that you are in fact an extension of your environment, which includes everything from your thoughts and belief systems, to toxic exposures and exposure to sunlight, exercise, and, of course, everything you choose to put onto and into your body. As Dr. Lipton is fond of saying, the new biology moves you out of victimhood and into Mastery—mastery over your own health.
It is a supreme confirmation of my favorite saying, "You Can Take Control of Your Health."
How Nutrition Alters Genetic Expression
Two years ago, a study performed by the Linus Pauling Institute at Oregon State University was showcased at the annual Experimental Biology convention. The study demonstrated how "histone modifications" can impact the expression of many degenerative diseases, ranging from cancer and heart disease to biopolar disorder and even aging itself. According to Rod Dashwood, a professor of environmental and molecular toxicology and head of LPI's Cancer Chemoprotection Program, as quoted in a press releaseiv:
"We believe that many diseases that have aberrant gene expression at their root can be linked to how DNA is packaged, and the actions of enzymes such as histone deacetylases, or HDACs. As recently as 10 years ago we knew almost nothing about HDAC dysregulation in cancer or other diseases, but it's now one of the most promising areas of health-related research."
In a nutshell, we all have tumor suppressor genes, and these genes are capable of stopping cancer cells in their tracks. These genes are present in every cell in your body, but so are proteins called "histones." As Dr. Jean-Pierre Issa at the M.D. Anderson Cancer Center explainsv , histones can "hug" DNA so tightly that it becomes "hidden from view for the cell." If a tumor suppressor gene is hidden, it cannot be utilized, and in this way too much histone will "turn off" these cancer suppressors, and allow cancer cells to proliferate.
Now here's where epigenetics comes in … certain foods, such as broccoli and other cruciferous vegetables, garlic, and onions contain substances that act as histone inhibitors, which essentially block the histone, allowing your tumor suppressor genes to activate and fight cancer. By regularly consuming these foods, you are naturally supporting your body's ability to fight tumors.
Certain alternative oncologists also tap directly into the epigenetic mechanism, such as Dr. Nicholas Gonzalez, who uses a three-pronged approach to cancer based primarily on nutrition and detoxification, and Dr. Stanislaw Burzynski, who treats cancer with a gene-targeted approach. His treatment uses non-toxic peptides and amino acids, known as antineoplastons, which act as genetic switches that turn your tumor suppressor genes "on."
A Healthy Lifestyle Supports Healthy Genetic Expression
So the good news is that you are in control of your genes … You can alter them on a regular basis, depending on the foods you eat, the air you breathe, and the thoughts you think. It's your environment and lifestyle that dictates your tendency to express disease, and this new realization is set to make major waves in the future of disease prevention -- including one day educating people on how to fight disease at the epigenetic level. When a disease occurs, the solution, according to epigenetic therapy, is simply to "remind" your affected cells (change its environmental instructions) of its healthy function, so they can go back to being normal cells instead of diseased cells.
You can begin to do this on your own, long before you manifest a disease. By leading a healthy lifestyle, with high quality nutrition, exercise, limited exposure to toxins, and a positive mental attitude, you encourage your genes to express positive, disease-fighting behaviors.
This is what preventive medicine is all about. It's not about taking any one particular nutrient as a supplement to fix one specific "part" of your biological machinery... The more people become willing to embrace this simple truth, the healthier everyone will get.
It's also worth pointing out that epigenetic effects begin before birth.
Epigenetic research from 2009 showed that rat fetuses receiving poor nutrition in the womb become genetically primed for a nutrition-poor environment. As a result of this genetic adaptation, the rats tended to be smaller. They were also at higher risk for a host of health problems throughout their lives, such as diabetes, growth retardation, cardiovascular disease, obesity, and neurodevelopmental delays. Again, while some are tempted to blame such "predispositions" on bad genes, the KEY factor is nutrition, i.e. the cellular environment.
If you're ready to address your dietary choices, read through my comprehensive nutrition plan, which will give you tips and tools for eating healthy, dealing with stress, and living a lifestyle that will support your epigenetic health.
You can also turn your genes off and on with your emotions too. Many, if not most people carry emotional scars; traumas that can adversely affect health. Using techniques like energy psychology, you can go in and correct the trauma and help regulate your genetic expression. My favorite technique for this is the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), but there are many others. Choose whichever one appeals to you, and if you don't sense any benefits, try another, until you find what works best for you.
Please, remember that 'You CAN Take Control of Your Health.'
Animals Are Natural Meditators
By Doug Knueven DVM
http://www.edgarcayce.org/are/blog.aspx?id=6301&blogid=445
Here's the way I look at it. Pets fill a need in the lives of those who love animals. With their instinct to comfort and heal us, they demonstrate qualities that even humans sometimes lack. I believe that pets have such an effect because they help us maintain contact with the natural world—a connection which our modern lifestyles tend to eliminate.
Nature is infused with the divine. It is impossible for most people to study biology without developing a sense of awe for the beauty of the balance that is maintained in intricate, natural systems. Each of the billions of cells of the body has a life of its own, and yet they all cooperate to function as a whole. Animals, plants, microorganisms, and inert materials have developed amazingly complicated relationships in every ecosystem in the world. Even the celestial bodies have an orderly rhythm that mystifies the human mind. All of creation is alive with a palpable, heavenly heartbeat.
With a purr, a nudge, a lick or a wag, our pets can reunite us with the mysteries of the universe. For me, connecting with a pet on a spiritual level is one way of connecting with the divine.
Cats and Dogs: Benefits of Whole Foods Diet

Veterinarian on What a vet should recommend: Small Animals Benefit on Whole Foods Diet
Reading the Veterinarian Practice News I recently came across the following interesting article written by Doug Knueven, DVM and thought I need to share it with you:
“I returned to my alma mater, Ohio State University, in May 2007 to attend an American College of Veterinary Nutrition symposium. Three veterinary nutritionists spoke on such topics as “Optimal Nutrition for the Healthy Pet,” “Nutrition Myths and Mistakes,” “Raw Food Diets” and “Home-Cooked Meals: Avoiding a Dining Disaster.”
Advice from Dr. Tony Buffington, the nutritionist at Ohio State, made the biggest impression on me. He said that when making a judgment on what food to recommend, the practitioner should not rely on pet food brochures, websites or even the food labels themselves because all these resources can be misleading.
He recommended that we take a careful diet history of each patient we see and make note of its general health. Only by correlating health with diet can a veterinarian truly judge the nutritional value of a food. I have made a startling discovery based on this sound expert advice: The healthiest pets in my practice eat a variety of “real” foods, including raw diets.
By real foods, I mean the kind of food Mother Nature intended carnivores to eat–the diet our patients evolved eating for 5 million years.
Imagine if after your exam, your doctor plopped a bag of kibble on the table and told you that you were to only eat a bowl of it for every meal, every day, for the rest of your life. No fruits, no vegetables, no meats. Surely you would be skeptical of the nutritional completeness of such a recommendation.
Yet many of us make this same recommendation for our patients every day. Are the basic tenets of nutrition for our patients and us really that different? According to research and my clinical experience, they are not.
A recent study highlights the importance of whole food nutrition for people: “There are 8,000 phytochemicals present in whole foods. These compounds differ in molecular size, polarity and solubility, and these differences may affect the bioavailability and distribution of each phytochemical in different macromolecules, subcellular organelles, cells, organs and tissues. … The vitamin C in apples with skin accounts for only 0.4 percent of the total antioxidant activity, suggesting that most of the antioxidant activity of fruit and vegetables may come from phenolics and flavonoids. … We propose that the additive and synergistic effects of phytochemicals in fruit and vegetables are responsible for their potent antioxidant and anticancer activities, and that the benefit of a diet rich in fruit and vegetables is attributed to the complex mixture of phytochemicals present in whole foods.”(1) Likewise, current veterinary research shows the health benefits of whole foods for dogs: “The data indicate that the consumption of any type of vegetable > three times a week was associated with a 70 percent to 90 percent reduction in risk of developing TCC in Scottish Terriers.”(2)
Of course, a totally vegetarian diet is far from appropriate for dogs and cats, but the concept that they benefit from whole foods is obvious. In fact, the modern understanding of small-animal nutrition concedes that supplementing commercial foods with fresh foods, including meats and vegetables, provides vital nutrients.(3) The emphasis here is on “whole foods” because, according to multiple studies, the processing of food destroys many nutrients and important phytochemicals.(4-10)
Variety is not only the spice of life, it is essential for vibrant health for humans and pets alike. Animals may become sensitive to the foods they are fed most often, so periodically changing the diet can help pets avoid food allergies. Plus, rotating foods presents to the body a smorgasbord of nutrients in various forms.
Any one diet may be lacking or excessive in specific factors when fed long term. According to Dr. Buffington, “The recommendation to feed one food for the life of an animal gives nutritionists more credit than we deserve.”(11) The notion of finding a food that a pet likes and feeding it for life is obsolete.
I have found that when an animal’s system becomes accustomed to variety in the diet, it does not develop diarrhea with every change as might be expected. At first the changes need to be made gradually, but over time a smooth transition can be made swiftly.
Over a decade of recommending raw food for many of my patients and feeding it to my own pets, I have found that the concern over pathogenic bacteria and parasites is overblown.
I see many fewer cases of diarrhea in my raw-fed patients than in those fed strictly processed pet food. In my experience, dogs and cats fed a rotating diet that includes raw food are the healthiest. Careful and non-judgmental questioning of your clients might just yield the same results.”
To further strengthen his argument for a raw food diet, Dr. Knueven also provides a brief history of a live example, a patient he treated at his office:
“Louie was a neutered, male Newfoundland mix who came to me at the age of about 3 years with a terrible case of generalized demodicosis. He also had severe pruritus.
Before coming to me, Louie had been treated with several rounds of antibiotics as well as Ivermectin and at one point prednisone, all to no avail.
Louie had generalized alopecia and scabs and scales all over his body. His skin reeked of the typical rancid-fat smell of chronic dermatitis. He could barely open his eyes from the blepharitis. A skin scraping confirmed demodicosis.
Let’s face it, when it come to demodex, the problem is not the mites; it’s the pet’s immune system. The course of action was simple; I switched him from a standard processed dog food to a raw food rotational diet plus a whole food multivitamin. At no time under my care was he on any antiparasitic medications.
Louie did not recover overnight. It took about a year for his transformation to fully manifest. “
Contribution by Dr. Doug Knueven, D.V.M. has been practicing alternative veterinary medicine since 1993 in Beaver County, Pa. He just released his second book, “The Holistic Health Guide: Natural Care for the Whole Dog.” He is a consultant for Nature’s Variety.

My root state is, “I don't know”. I also don't care about a lot of external phenomena because 'everything is under control'. This is a lens through which I see things, that and 'for the purpose of demonstration'. I seldom think much about Masons, Illuminati or any other secret society, except the one I belong to and don't know the name of (grin). I'm assuming the initiations I've gone through are connected to some group. I am seldom told anything and I'm told there's a very good reason for that.
I'm thankful that the vast majority of readers and listeners are more than sane, because generic sane is not sane. You become insane and dysfunctional when your intention is to conform to a social structure that is pathological and abnormal. Most present day cultures are like this. People try to fit in and adapt to ever more bizarre constructs, that are fueled by warped political correctness and venal self interest on the part of scoundrels and psychopaths. That is insane and that is what people become when they live on the corner of Shit and Go Blind. Thankfully, we have The Apocalypse on our side and the waking up factor is exponential as time goes by. The curve of awakening become steeper and broader. They are racing against time in a battle they can't win because the battle has already been won. We are living in the echo of a victory that has not physically manifested but which is precipitating down from the ethers.
There are many industrious souls and I want this post to contain a positive note. This will also introduce you to a website where you can attempt the same thing if you have the chops. We have a long time reader named Imron, who comes around here regular and doesn't comment so much anymore. He has visited me several times and I know him as one of the most honest and industrious people whose path has ever crossed mine. He's been seriously engaged in restoring his business. He was driven out of it by the usual suspects at one point but he is one pointed and comprehensively working to make his dream come true. His intentions in the aftermath are honorable and I bring him to your attention for several reasons. One is that of a single example of the right stuff among us and which is representative in a lot of the people who come here and another is to provide inspiration for your own potential efforts. We have to get out of the mindset that the world is ending. The world doesn't end. It changes. We change, until we become changeless. When we can no longer change, death appears to liberate us from the confines of whatever entangled us, to the point that we couldn't proceed forward. Everything is orchestrated and programmed and this is why I'm not overly concerned about certain details. I don't believe that we're all fucked. I think there's a lot of hocus pocus and a lot of bad information on all sides of the fence.
The world is very much like an amusement park, a circus, a carnival, a theme park, a game park, a coliseum, where we compete against long enduring obstacles and traps, where we compete against each other and war against ourselves because of the separated self feature. It's all about arriving at a place where you don't compete at all, where you have 'arrived'. It's a place where you pass by all of the attractions that people give their lives and more for and you are not attracted to them. They're there for your use or for demonstration whenever that's required. The under control feature that appeared out of control, has now revealed itself as being completely under control, in that significant moment for the purpose of demonstration.
What you see in this world is an endless routine of people going about their personal business, over and over and over; succeeding, failing, living and dying, over and over and over. The environments change. The conditions change and there's only one piece of business that ever has any lasting importance and until a person addresses that they are just spinning their wheels. This is not to say that many of the things we get up to are not relevant and need doing. Dharma and Karma are very real and good Karma is preferable to bad Karma. You might think that this would be transparently obvious but for some reason, a lot of people don't get this and run around making all kinds of bad Karma. Maybe they've convinced themselves that there is no overarching authority. In times of material darkness, the smoke from various passions can completely obscure the vision. You're surrounded by energy magnets of considerable power. They're the human state equivalent of Venus Flytrap plants.
Study the world as it goes past you. Observe the direction and result of what people get up to. You learn all kinds of things, watching people of different ages. I'm not saying that there is no purpose to anything. I'm saying there's one purpose to everything and if that awareness is present in everything you do then everything you do is an expression of it. We wouldn't be here if we didn't have a job to do or bills to pay. The point is to become untangled from the mix, not further entangled into it but... the draw of the thing is very strong in this period of time and that is why so many people are flowing with the current as it travels on its way to the abyss, for the purpose of demonstration.
The evidence of what is taking place should be as clear as water from an uncontaminated spring. However, if the senses doing the perceiving are contaminated then you're going to get wrong information. It's like wearing special glasses that have their own hallucinations embedded in them, or they channel all the primal atavistic urges for war and plunder and people think what they see is what is in front of them instead of a morphed reality driven by dirty fires. Well, that's how it is today. It's better than that but it is much worse too, depends on where you are and it depends on who you are.

dick cheney Profiles in Evil
http://profilesinevil.blogspot.com/
Dick (can I call you Dick?), you worked for Richard Nixon back in the early days and since then you have been a malignant boil on the ass of humanity. Whether this is the result of a deep and abiding hostility for the human race, or simply the result of humanity searching for its cellphone, to call for help, is for the historians to decide. The good news is that it is people like you, who decide what the historians will write and certainly people like yourself who determine which of these efforts will see the light of day.
We’re not surprised that your heart attacked you or that your daughter (PC alert!!!) won’t go near men, due to your outstanding work on her emotional body, though her mental body remained programmed and intact, to assist you in your work. As I look over the sum of your industry in this world, I can think of only one positive act that you have committed in your entire life; you shot a lawyer in the face, albeit, a half hearted, bird shot effort. They say the heart is a lonely hunter and yours has run so hard and so far in fear, shame and self loathing that it too is now lodged in some nether region.
Like some denatured woodland creature, you now seek to foul your nest before you have even left it, by saying bad things about your partners in crime. I’ll bet if you were in the dock you would sing like a bird.
I’m fairly competent in the use of words but I am rendered speechless in my attempts to reach a definition or describe you. All I can come up with are things like, “you vicious, evil sonofabitch” and “you monstrous low to the ground, blood sucking, shit-weasel” These don’t get the job done, Dick. These could certainly be applied to lesser men, whose works resemble your own, on a smaller scale, but they just can’t approach the dimension of your vile escapades on this tormented planet.
Your intellectual progeny now seek to destroy fresh nations, whose leaders are like Jesus Christ in comparison to you. I won’t attempt to list the extent of your accomplishments, there are too many of them and there are, no doubt, many more that we are unfamiliar with. I can list some of the highlights; Your direct involvement in the commission of the 9/11 attacks, your concerted efforts to bring about the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, under false pretenses, based on acts committed by you and your Zio-Nazi, super swine in arms, who, like yourself, were conceived in some dark recess of Hell; some laboratory of the damned that bears a striking similarity to The Island of Dr. Moreau on steroids. You and your partners in crime are Klingons in the Devil’s anus; animate shit golems, with hands and hearts of fire and ice.
When you watch the news from Libya and other parts of the world; when you see events that you are directly or indirectly complicit in, Dick, do you play with yourself? Does your family watch or do they sit by your side with similarly busy hands? Is this why your heart has fled? Has it run into darkness, due to the frenzy of your celebrations, rather than in horror at your acts? It wouldn’t have been a normal heart by any definition at any time, Dick. Do you dream of dark things still unaccomplished? Is there will and time enough to seek new opportunity to complete your unfinished business?
You and Rumsfeld and Rice, Wolfowitz, Pearle and Feith (sounds like a law firm doesn’t it), certainly did a job on the world and despite everything, all of you are still defiant, defensive and still on the job, in one way or another. You’re beyond my ken, all of you. I engage in my own version of remote viewing and all I can fathom is the remoteness. It’s a thick brimming darkness, where Leviathan dwells, unless you and your crew have already had him for dinner, instead of the other way around. All of you should be eternally bound victims in an endlessly looping, slasher flick but that is not enough. This is why vengeance and judgment cannot be mine. I do not possess the imagination necessary to make the punishment fit the crimes, only the cosmos has the depth and ingenuity to determine what that should be.
The mind numbing mystery and incongruity of it all is that you have not a care of what waits around the corner. There seems to be no awareness at all of what is surely to come for you and your fellows and minions. You are like those brave bomber and fighter pilots of the modern era, who deal flaming death from the skies upon those without weapons and consider yourselves brave warriors. You gather in the watering holes and canteens and regale one another with your acts of courage. With your Freddy Mercury moustaches you imagine that “We are the Champions” is playing for you, when it’s more like the soundtrack to “Cruising”. Perhaps it is to be understood in that immense detachment, of distance and observation, of the generic Chickenhawk. You don’t know what it’s like down there, even though you are the cause of it.
You must believe your own press. You and your fellows who torture, confine and murder must be wearing special glasses, in which your heroism is clearly to be seen. I once offered to meet you and Lil’ George in combat for the fate of humanity but I never heard from you, even thought you were to be armed with knives to offset your handicaps. No doubt your busy schedule precluded this.
Dick, that burning eternal darkness approaches closer by the hour. One day will be the day and there will be dancing in the street, even if it is only me. I’ll take a large dose of ketamine and go into my hyper-viewing mode. I wouldn’t want to miss the action on the other side of the Mobius strip. For the moment, I’m going to root for Colonel Khadaffi, a man of more honor and courage than you will ever know.

Friday, September 02, 2011
It's a question of whether you actually want to understand what someone is saying, or whether you want to argue with them; the latter is the case, far too often around this planet.
We live in combative and contentious times. We've got an extremely large collection of experts and dilettantes who are often both. Pontificating has reached the same epidemic level as texting. I've never texted anyone, nor would I go anywhere near Twitter, or even read anything said there. I'm not suggesting that everyone ever engaged in either of these is aberrant or wrong, I'm just saying it's not for me. My messages build up at Facebook. I seldom check them. It's accidental really. It just doesn't occur to me. I don't do PM's and I try to keep Skype closed. I seldom use the phone. I have a cellphone I bought for my trip and it has yet to get a sim card. I don't go to restaurants or night clubs. I don't talk to people very often and none of this has anything to do with much, except to say that that is where my life has taken me. I'm really bringing all of this up because I think it's important for people to realize that, quite possibly, the majority of what is going on in this world may have nothing valuable to do with you.
People live with unnecessary concerns. They obsess about why they can't get along with certain people. They guilt trip themselves about things that happened. They scheme and plot for the acquisition of items, fatal to their health and well being. They go around in fear of the unknown and confusion about the known. They desperately want things to make sense and often they do not. You may never get an explanation for a lot of things. People desire things that trap them, thinking some measure of security will come out of them. They want meaning, without realizing that so many of the things they have and want are responsible for their inability to find meaning. They're afraid to admit to themselves that most of what is forced down their throats, by politically correct agents of the infernal throne, aren't okay, in their extreme presentation, and never have been. People go in horror of taking unpopular stands. Well, the truth is, you don't have to take a stand about anything. You just have to recognize what common sense should tell you and you can keep your peace about any and all of it; should you choose to. There's no real point to playing Don Quixote, unless the cosmos wants to demonstrate something through you and there's no telling what that might be. It might be flat out positive.
We don't have to get along with everyone else. We only have to get along with ourselves. If we can do that the rest of it will sort itself out. Most people don't know why they're here and know even less about why everyone else is here. Most disease and death is the result of stress. The rest can be chalked up to bad judgment and a couple of other things. Stress and fear are a tandem. People want to feel important and needed. They want to feel valued, yet they don't take the trouble to make the acquaintance of the one who confers all of this in the best possible way. “Seek ye first the kingdom of heaven and all of these things will be added unto you”. That covers every surface, no matter how exhaustive, byzantine and complex it may appear or be presented as; no matter how semantically convoluted it comes across. You can ignore the entire Thomas Aquinas, Sigmund Freud, Rheumatoid Arthritis Syndrome and just head on to Peaceful Valley or Cold Mountain, without all those angels dancing on the head of a pin; just my two cents for what it's worth.

Theatre of the Absurd
http://les-visible.blogspot.com/
Wherever we go in this world there is stress awaiting our appearance and looking for an avenue of expression. During these times, forces in the material world are doing everything in their power to reduce the quality of life and to humiliate and oppress the public at every turn, while agents of these forces enrich themselves at the expense of the public they are mistreating. It has reached the theater of the absurd. Terrorists, who are no more than agents of your own government, have engineered tragic and ridiculous events in order to force you into unpleasant circumstances, while intentionally ratcheting up anger and animosity toward the Muslims and others.
You know that you are being shortchanged and stolen from at every turn and it makes you angry and frustrated and that’s the point. That is the very point, because the seemingly powerful agencies who are putting you through this, are themselves working for a consciousness that has been around a long time and which specializes in anger; despair, torment, want, loss and a gamut of injuries. The point of this is to take your mind off of your natural autonomy and freedom and to put your mind on thoughts of confinement, fear, outrage and a further gamut of such states of being.
The true intention of the forces, looking to make you insecure and suspicious of everything around you, is to take your attention away from the portals that are opening and away from the benefits of awakening. Awakening is not just about people being forced to see. It is about being made able to see yourself and others as you truly are.
You find that when you just wholesale reject the lies and pressures of those seeking to perform all manner of indignities upon you, that they lose their power to do so. You find that stores give you back your money and that money finds a way to appear when you need it. You find that what seems so normal and predictable can suddenly turn into awe-making and entertaining events. You find that you are given tests and opportunities to overcome the usual responses of your reactive mind and are then freed, by degrees, from the reoccurrence of these responses. Still the reactive mind and you are free.
I know it looks like some very bad people are in control of everything but that is an illusion that exists for those with the will and capacity to believe in them. They’ve got nothing. They’re trying to rattle your cage but you have the keys. Let them rattle an empty cage. When people suddenly come out of nowhere and impugn you or behave in a negative way, take the opportunity to be graceful and see what it gets you. Don’t argue about anything. Simply state your case and then leave it in the hands of the cosmos. It’s all happening for a reason. There are no accidents. There are only the degrees of your inability to see and this is caused by residence in the cloud of self-interest. You don’t have to be looking out for your interests all the time. Your interests are being looked out for. You assume that responsibility and you will get that responsibility.
The difference between the trusting nature of a child, who is always learning and who naturally understands, the only unified field reality anyone needs to know and that of an adult, who knows everything, most of which is wrong, is considerable and so are the pains and rewards. You are the victim of what you think you know and what you think you know is mostly based on what the world tells you and those things that happened to you via telepathic invasion, when you were too small to protect yourself, which is how you got out of childhood in the first place. Once lies are seated in the subconscious, they become real... as far as real goes. The weeds grow among the flowers and require an attentive gardener.
Survival has a lot more to do with perspective and perception than it has to do with apprehension and presumptive preparations. For most people, the preparations are going on in the wrong theater of being but that is because their being is outside of its natural house of residence. Every problem can be solved, the way knots untangle at the hands of the one who understands how they got made. The last person I would ask for advice would be myself, seeing as I am the one who got me into that position, or someone else who appears to be trapped some other way and thinks they are free.

A TSA manager at Dulles International Airport arrested for allegedly running a prostitution ring out of a D.C. area hotel

OUR GOVERNMENT AT WORK!! DOING WHAT IT DOES BEST!
Two Dulles Airport TSA staffers recently arrested for sex crimes
http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/322074#ixzz1qj0cOHma
http://tsanewsblog.com/2204/news/tsa-agents-arrested-at-dulles-airport/
In November, I was barred from my flight at Dulles Airport for a double opt-out. I refused to go through a blue-box backscatter (x-ray) body scanner, and I refused to endure an intimate feel-up from a woman I didn’t know. The body scanners at Dulles have no privacy filter. Backscatter machines dose passengers with carcinogenic ionizing radiation to create images of their naked bodies for inspection by a screener working in the hidden viewing booth.
What I sensed was happening at that airport – targeting young women for special security attention out of sexual motivation [/b]– now seems even more difficult for the TSA to deny. Not one, but two of the men working for TSA at Dulles Airport on that day have now been arrested for sex crimes.
Just three days after my refusal, police arrested a Dulles screener, Harold Rodman, and charged him with aggravated sexual battery, object sexual penetration, forcible sodomy, and abduction with intent to defile. His accuser says that he flashed his TSA badge to initiate the assault before he lured her away from her friend and attacked her.
I can have no proof, of course, that alleged rapist Harold Rodman was in the viewing booth that morning, but neither can I be assured that he was not. He was employed as a screener at that airport on the same day that another male screener directed me into the scanner while sending my husband through a simple metal detector.
But surely the TSA must have its house in order with regard to how it treats women? At the very least, if Harold Rodman or other screeners were indeed targeting women, then someone higher up in the organization, say, a Transportation Security Manager, would be there to correct the situation?
In fact, a Transportation Security Manager did present himself at the checkpoint that day to see to it that I was either electronically strip-searched or sexually fondled to his satisfaction. That man’s name was Bryant Livingston. I still have his card on my desk.
Bryant Livingston, TSA Security Manager, was arrested at Dulles Airport and charged with five counts involving prostitution. He was allegedly running a prostitution ring out of a Silver Spring hotel room. Law enforcement officers found four men and three naked women in a room. One man admitted to police he had arrived with the promise of sex for $100.
This is how the TSA respects women.
The TSA issued a statement after Livingston’s arrest: “The allegations against this individual are unacceptable and in no way reflect the integrity and professionalism of the more than 50,000 security officers who strive every day to ensure the security of the traveling public.”
After Rodman’s arrest, the TSA stated: “The disturbing allegations against this individual in no way reflect the work of the more than 50,000 security officers who every day ensure the security of the traveling public.”
Exactly how many sexual predators per airport does the TSA get to disclaim responsibility for hiring?
The TSA is well aware that its procedures involve sexually invasive touching and processing sensitive nude images. True, most screeners charged with serious sex crimes are fired and lose government immunity for shoving their hands down strangers’ pants. But if the TSA’s vaunted behavior detection program were anything more than a fistful of make-believe, it could use this program to get rid of the sexual abusers on TSA’s payroll.
Then again, that might actually make passengers more safe and secure. So I’m not holding my breath.

Episode-858- Lierre Keith on The Vegetarian Myth
http://www.thesurvivalpodcast.com/episode-858-lierre-keith-on-the-vegetarian-myth
I first found Lierre Keith on Peak Moment TV being interviewed by Janaia Donaldson. She is the author of a book highly recommended by Robb Wolf called, “The Vegetarian Myth”. When I heard her explain many of the roots of why we are told veganism is so good for us I knew I had to bring her on TSP.
The Forward of The Vegetarian Myth explains, “We’ve been told that a vegetarian diet can feed the hungry, honor the animals, and save the planet. Lierre Keith believed in that plant-based diet and spent twenty years as a vegan. But in The Vegetarian Myth, she argues that we’ve been led astray–not by our longings for a just and sustainable world, but by our ignorance.
The truth is that agriculture is a relentless assault against the planet, and more of the same won’t save us. In service to annual grains, humans have devastated prairies and forests, driven countless species extinct, altered the climate, and destroyed the topsoil–the basis of life itself. Keith argues that if we are to save this planet, our food must be an act of profound and abiding repair: it must come from inside living communities, not be imposed across them.

The Great Cholesterol Lie
World Renown Heart Surgeon Speaks Out On What Really Causes Heart Disease
By Tonion March 2, 2012
http://www.laleva.org/eng/2012/03/world_renown_heart_surgeon_speaks_out_on_what_really_causes_heart_disease.html
We physicians with all our training, knowledge and authority often acquire a rather large ego that tends to make it difficult to admit we are wrong. So, here it is. I freely admit to being wrong.. As a heart surgeon with 25 years experience, having performed over 5,000 open-heart surgeries,today is my day to right the wrong with medical and scientific fact.
It Is Not Working!
These recommendations are no longer scientifically or morally defensible. The discovery a few years ago that inflammation in the artery wall is the real cause of heart disease is slowly leading to a paradigm shift in how heart disease and other chronic ailments will be treated.
The long-established dietary recommendations have created epidemics of obesity and diabetes, the consequences of which dwarf any historical plague in terms of mortality, human suffering and dire economic consequences.
Despite the fact that 25% of the population takes expensive statin medications and despite the fact we have reduced the fat content of our diets, more Americans will die this year of heart disease than ever before.
Statistics from the American Heart Association show that 75 million Americans currently suffer from heart disease, 20 million have diabetes and 57 million have pre-diabetes. These disorders are affecting younger and younger people in greater numbers every year.
Simply stated, without inflammation being present in the body, there is no way that cholesterol would accumulate in the wall of the blood vessel and cause heart disease and strokes. Without inflammation, cholesterol would move freely throughout the body as nature intended. It is inflammation that causes cholesterol to become trapped.
Inflammation is not complicated -- it is quite simply your body's natural defence to a foreign invader such as a bacteria, toxin or virus. The cycle of inflammation is perfect in how it protects your body from these bacterial and viral invaders. However, if we chronically expose the body to injury by toxins or foods the human body was never designed to process,a condition occurs called chronic inflammation. Chronic inflammation is just as harmful as acute inflammation is beneficial.
What thoughtful person would willfully expose himself repeatedly to foods or other substances that are known to cause injury to the body? Well,smokers perhaps, but at least they made that choice willfully.
The rest of us have simply followed the recommended mainstream diet that is low in fat and high in polyunsaturated fats and carbohydrates, not knowing we were causing repeated injury to our blood vessels. This repeated injury creates chronic inflammation leading to heart disease, stroke, diabetes and obesity.
Let me repeat that: The injury and inflammation in our blood vessels is caused by the low fat diet recommended for years by mainstream medicine.
What are the biggest culprits of chronic inflammation? Quite simply, they are the overload of simple, highly processed carbohydrates (sugar, flour and all the products made from them) and the excess consumption of omega-6 vegetable oils like soybean, corn and sunflower that are found in many processed foods.
Take a moment to visualize rubbing a stiff brush repeatedly over soft skin until it becomes quite red and nearly bleeding. you kept this up several times a day, every day for five years. If you could tolerate this painful brushing, you would have a bleeding, swollen infected area that became worse with each repeated injury. This is a good way to visualize the inflammatory process that could be going on in your body right now.
Regardless of where the inflammatory process occurs, externally or internally, it is the same. I have peered inside thousands upon thousands of arteries. A diseased artery looks as if someone took a brush and scrubbed repeatedly against its wall. Several times a day, every day, the foods we eat create small injuries compounding into more injuries, causing the body to respond continuously and appropriately with inflammation.
While we savor the tantalizing taste of a sweet roll, our bodies respond alarmingly as if a foreign invader arrived declaring war. Foods loaded with sugars and simple carbohydrates, or processed with omega-6 oils for long shelf life have been the mainstay of the American diet for six decades. These foods have been slowly poisoning everyone.
How does eating a simple sweet roll create a cascade of inflammation to make you sick?
Imagine spilling syrup on your keyboard and you have a visual of what occurs inside the cell. When we consume simple carbohydrates such as sugar, blood sugar rises rapidly. In response, your pancreas secretes insulin whose primary purpose is to drive sugar into each cell where it is stored for energy. If the cell is full and does not need glucose, it is rejected to avoid extra sugar gumming up the works.
When your full cells reject the extra glucose, blood sugar rises producing more insulin and the glucose converts to stored fat.
What does all this have to do with inflammation? Blood sugar is controlled in a very narrow range. Extra sugar molecules attach to a variety of proteins that in turn injure the blood vessel wall. This repeated injury to the blood vessel wall sets off inflammation. When you spike your blood sugar level several times a day, every day, it is exactly like taking sandpaper to the inside of your delicate blood vessels.
While you may not be able to see it, rest assured it is there. I saw it in over 5,000 surgical patients spanning 25 years who all shared one common denominator -- inflammation in their arteries.
Let’s get back to the sweet roll. That innocent looking goody not only contains sugars, it is baked in one of many omega-6 oils such as soybean. Chips and fries are soaked in soybean oil; processed foods are manufactured with omega-6 oils for longer shelf life. While omega-6’s are essential -they are part of every cell membrane controlling what goes in and out of the cell -- they must be in the correct balance with omega-3’s.
If the balance shifts by consuming excessive omega-6, the cell membrane produces chemicals called cytokines that directly cause inflammation.
Today’s mainstream American diet has produced an extreme imbalance of these two fats. The ratio of imbalance ranges from 15:1 to as high as 30:1 in favor of omega-6. That’s a tremendous amount of cytokines causing inflammation. In today’s food environment, a 3:1 ratio would be optimal and healthy.
To make matters worse, the excess weight you are carrying from eating these foods creates overloaded fat cells that pour out large quantities of pro-inflammatory chemicals that add to the injury caused by having high blood sugar. The process that began with a sweet roll turns into a vicious cycle over time that creates heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes and finally, Alzheimer’s disease, as the inflammatory process continues unabated.
There is no escaping the fact that the more we consume prepared and processed foods, the more we trip the inflammation switch little by little each day. The human body cannot process, nor was it designed to consume, foods packed with sugars and soaked in omega-6 oils.
There is but one answer to quieting inflammation, and that is returning to foods closer to their natural state. To build muscle, eat more protein. Choose carbohydrates that are very complex such as colorful fruits and vegetables. Cut down on or eliminate inflammation- causing omega-6 fats like corn and soybean oil and the processed foods that are made from them.
One tablespoon of corn oil contains 7,280 mg of omega-6; soybean contains 6,940 mg. Instead, use olive oil or butter from grass-fed beef.
Animal fats contain less than 20% omega-6 and are much less likely to cause inflammation than the supposedly healthy oils labelled polyunsaturated. Forget the “science” that has been drummed into your head for decades. The science that saturated fat alone causes heart disease is non-existent. The science that saturated fat raises blood cholesterol is also very weak. Since we now know that cholesterol is not the cause of heart disease, the concern about saturated fat is even more absurd today.
The cholesterol theory led to the no-fat, low-fat recommendations that in turn created the very foods now causing an epidemic of inflammation. Mainstream medicine made a terrible mistake when it advised people to avoid saturated fat in favor of foods high in omega-6 fats. We now have an epidemic of arterial inflammation leading to heart disease and other silent killers.
What you can do is choose whole foods your grandmother served and not those your mom turned to as grocery store aisles filled with manufactured foods. By eliminating inflammatory foods and adding essential nutrients from fresh unprocessed food, you will reverse years of damage in your arteries and throughout your body from consuming the typical American diet.

Money Laundering: A Delicate, Dangerous Art
http://www.creators.com/lifestylefeatures/business-and-finance/taking-stock/money-laundering-a-delicate-dangerous-art.html
EXCERPT
Dear Mr. Berko: A friend of mine is going to sell a building he's owned for years at a very large profit, and the tax bite, according to one accountant, will be almost $120,000. A New York City lawyer and CPA he consulted said he could avoid these taxes with an impossible-to-detect series of electronic commodity money transactions.
Can you tell me how this works and how safe it is? They told my friend that Jon Corzine is one of the geniuses who devised this transaction method.
Dear BA: I recently had a discussion with a knowledgeable banker who said that some lawyers may call this scheme a money transfer, but the IRS will call it laundering. It's as easy as pie to do an electronic transfer and cause billions of dollars to dance an Irish jig through a series of international accounts in England, Germany, Spain and New York. A little greed goes a long way, turning dirty money into clean cash, ripe and ready to spend.
It can begin with the legitimate purchase, sale and delivery of a high-demand commodity (oil, wheat, copper, coffee, etc.) using a hedge fund or commodity trading firm such as MF Global to execute transactions involving a series of major banks around the globe. So when all the trade debits and credits are settled from the laundered money, the resulting amount is moved electronically to a designated "safe bank" that's immune to the demands of the IRS or the State Department. It may be one of the banks in the Bahamas, the Republic of Vanuatu, Lichtenstein, or, as some suggest, the sacrosanct Vatican Bank.
Sophisticated electronic commodity trades — the stuff at which MF Global excelled when Jon "Crafty" Corzine took over — are used by drug dealers, arms merchants, dictators, oligarchs, politicians, big-time financial swindlers and the like to wash the stink from their cash. The proceeds from purchase, sale and delivery contracts are commingled daily (washed) with hundreds of billions of dollars of similar electronic transactions, and selected laundry pieces are key-stroked to a specified non-complying bank.
And because the international purchase, sale and delivery of contracts of corn, nickel, soybeans, etc., involve multiple participants and are not considered cash transfers, it's almost impossible to identify the offending source.
However, if the funds to be laundered basically require a one-time transaction, the process is a lot less convoluted. The purchase or sale, through a middleman, of a substantial asset (a piece of art, a 747, a yacht, real estate, diamonds, etc.) at a price significantly higher or lower than its value, or the sale of a similar asset at a price much higher or below its value, can achieve the same results.
Your "friend's" paltry $120,000 isn't enough for these big boys to spit on, though. And I suspect that those New York City boys could pull a double-cross on your friend. And if those slickers run off into the sunset, to whom can your friend complain?
Your friend ought to come out of the closet and tell the NYC lawyer and CPA to take a long walk off a short alp, and then he ought to hire one of the many fine CPAs and tax attorneys in Syracuse and pay the butcher bill. He'll certainly sleep better at night, and there should be enough money left to invest.
There's an enormous difference between avoiding taxes and evading them. Evaders get put in prison, where they're entitled to free room, board and medical care, and some enjoy the evening's available entertainment. Your legal bills can be enormous, and the fines and penalties will give you angina. Avoiders usually pay the tax deficiency plus interest.
