Monsanto Cucumbers Cause Genital Baldness

From an email from John DiNardo...

Thanks to Nina Owens for sending this.
Buy only organic, folks.

" Monsanto Cucumbers Cause Genital Baldness --
Immediately Banned in Nova Scotia
A six-month study by AgriSearch, an on-campus
research arm of Dalhousie University, has shown that genetically
modified (GM) cucumbers grown under license to Monsanto Inc.
result in serious side effects including total groin hair loss and
chafing in "sensitive areas", leading to the immediate and total ban
of sales of all that company's crop and subsequent dill pickles.The
bald wild animals raised a huge flag and we immediately obtained
subpoenas for the medical records of all 600 plus adults who took
part in focus groups and taste tests of the cucumbers by Monsanto
in Canada," said Dr. Nancy Walker, Director of Public Health Research
at Dalhousie. "Fully 3/4 of the people who ate these cukes had their
crotch area hair fall out. This is not a joking matter at all...these
people now have hairless heinies."

CAUSE ?? Intensified Solar activity ???

Massive Tornado outbreak in Midwest for next 2 days also...Tornadoes hit Kansas tonight...

SOLAR WIND STORM: For the third day in a row, a remarkably fast (600 km/s - 700 km/s) stream of solar wind is blowing around Earth. This is causing magnetic unrest around the poles as well as elevated levels of high-energy electrons in Earth orbit. NOAA cautions satellite operators that "satellite systems may experience significant charging" in response to accumulated electrons.

Oh, BTW Coronal Hole from Sun ALIGNS with Earth in a few days...

05.20.13.   Post my interview of Friday, May 17, 2013  -  now comes this information

From March 17th 2013 - just released today - "Meteoroid strike on moon triggers giant explosion".  Please see this news story at:  http://news.msn.com/science-technology/meteoroid-strike-on-moon-triggers-giant-explosion?ocid=ansnews11

ANSWER:   ​ So, when will things finally start to happen you ask?  Hmmmmmmm.  Well, as an example, just look at the above event.  Is this event typical of the things that normally happen in our solar system... so close to planet Earth?

There are so many things happening to this planet, and so very close to this planet, right now, both subtle & substantial.  If you only think of the recent very near Earth fly-by of asteroid DA14, the meteorite strike in Russia, the meteors observed in our skies all around the planet during this time, many other future asteroids & celestial bodies we will encounter in 2013, the continued increase in both frequency of earthquakes & magnitude of these quakes, volcanoes continuing to go off... these are all examples of the changes that will continue to happen to our planet as she evolves in 2013 that I have cited on the 'Home' page of this web site, left hand side, under the section titled: "Time of Transition for Planet Earth -  A Time of planet wide Earth Changes

Just based on the above two (2​) major items, by now you ought to get the sense that things are - not 'normal' - not - 'business as usual' for our world... which is exactly why the priority importance level of meetings on the primary Andromeda Council biosphere is now at a level #2, the second highest ranking in their overall priority ranking system for meetings... regarding all matters of change concerning planet Earth.

As to when will I do another all English language interview?   It will all depend on how things unfold on this planet.

Do I still plan to do a formal announcement for the formal beginning of the worldwide visitations of:  Ambassador Tanka, Dipllomat Maka & Vice-Chairwoman Tania, and immediately following them the people from the four (4) Andromeda Council planets, with Earth people all around planet Earth?   Yes.

When will this happen?  Again, this is the wrong question.   What you should pay attention to is the "what"... a first MAJOR, GLOBAL earth change event that will have huge earth change ramifications all across the globe.  And as I mentioned in the May 17th interview - this event will likely trigger a cascade, a domino effect of many other major global earth change events that will happen this year.

There are indications everywhere now that the tide has turned decisively against the Satanic Sabbatean cabal and its plans for a family controlled fascist New World Order global dictatorship. For example, Pope Francis is expected to make a speech on the subject of financial tyranny and the global collateral accounts when he visits South America in June, according to a senior P2 Freemason Lodge member.

President Obama, meanwhile, made a speech last weekend where he basically admitted the US government had gone rogue and was getting ready to mend its ways.

However, the Sabbateans have still not given up and may pull off a few more nasty tricks before their final defeat. The recent mass burning of cars in Sweden, the “beheading” in the UK, the stabbing in France etc. all seem part of a desperate cabal effort to somehow provoke their long planned Muslim/Christian war. There is also the matter of Israel that still needs to be settled.

In Japan, too, cabal “economic hitmen” have been on the rampage causing volatility in markets in an attempt to derail Prime Minister Shinzo Abe’s Abenomics. This is part of a still unfinished battle for control of Japan. There are also indications that the recent Japanese election was stolen for Abe by the Rockefeller, Goldman Sachs, Council on Foreign Relations faction of the cabal. The vote counting in the recent Japanese general election that gave Abe a dictatorial 2/3rds control of parliament was all done by machines created by a company called Musashi. According to research by a Japanese right wing activist that we have only been partially able to confirm, the ownership of Musashi has been traced through a bunch of shell companies to an outfit called “Forrest Asset Management” run by a former Goldman Sachs employee and CFR member by the name of Peter Greiger. What we can confirm though from multiple sources is that the last election was stolen in favour of Abe by a coalition including young officers of the Japanese Defense Ministry.

What all this means is not certain but it is clear from other sources that Japan is split right down the middle between two factions. One faction is linked to the Rockefellers, Goldman Sachs and CFR and wants the Crown Prince Naruhito and Rockefeller Trilateral Commission member Hisashi Owada’s daughter Princess Masako to take over the role of Emperor and thus control over Japan. The other faction wants younger brother Prince Akishino (who has a male heir) to take over and keep the throne purely Japanese.

The Rockefeller faction does not want a normalization of relations with North Korea and reunification of the Korean peninsula because that would eliminate the cabal’s secret financial control. That is why the cabal has been trying so desperately to provoke war in East Asia.

Despite this, the push for reunification of the Korean peninsula and peace in North East Asia is going ahead. The North Korean generals and Japanese right wingers bribed by the cabal into staging provocations have been removed.

Nonetheless, the battle to free Japan is far from over and the effects of 67 years of brutal military occupation are still being felt. The quislings who benefited from this occupation are understandably very reluctant to lose their power and allow the Japanese people to learn the truth.

What is still not clear in Japan is if Abenomics is about saving the Japanese economy or saving Goldman Sachs interests in East Asia. The recent market turbulence featuring a plunging Nikkei Index, rising interest rates and a strong yen appears to be orchestrated by the Bush faction of the cabal and features Texas based hedge fund manager Kyle Bass as a kind of anti-Abenomics cheerleader. His logic is that if the Bank of Japan buys all the more than 1 quadrillion yens worth of Japanese government bonds in the market the result would be “financial tyranny.” It is true that if this happened the Bank of Japan would take over much of the control of the financial markets from private financial institutions (other than the BOJ) but it is also true that doing so would eliminate Japanese government debt. The question at the end of such a scenario would be of course if the BOJ was then a transparently run public utility or a private monopoly. That outcome depends on the ongoing factional war in Japan.

In any case, changes in the United States, Europe and the rest of the world make the ultimate defeat of the Japanese quislings a matter of time.

As mentioned above there are obvious signs the US military is no longer following cabal orders. The speech over the weekend by Obama
http://www.veteranstoday.com/2013/05/26/obama-surprise-admissions-in-terror-talk/
admitting US war crimes, and promising to stop such crimes, is a clear example. The fact the pentagon refused to send troops or weapons to help Israel overthrow the Syrian government, despite being ordered to do so by the State Department and Senate, is another clear sign. Instead Russia sent its Pacific fleet towards Israel and made it clear to the Israeli government they would find themselves in a war with Russia (and no US help) if they did not back down.

Then we have reports that the King of Saudi Arabia, a secret Isreali ally, is dead.
http://www.presstv.ir/detail/2013/05/26/305584/saudi-arabias-king-clinically-dead/

This is a clear sign the cabal that forced the world to buy oil from Sabbatean kingdoms and deposit the money in cabal controlled banks, is on the ropes.

Also last week, China’s number 2, Li Keqiang, went to India, Switzerland and Germany in what appears to be a move to formalize relations between the 180 nations BRICS alliance and the European Union using the Swiss as intermediaries.
http://www.xinhuanet.com/english/special/lkq201305/index.htm

China and Switzerland signed a Memorandum of Understanding to start a free trade agreement, the first between China and a Western country. In addition, both countries agreed to “a bid to jointly promote the establishment of a new international financial order featuring fairness, justice, inclusiveness and orderliness” according to Xinhua News.

By contrast with this sort of productive and friendly diplomacy, the cabalists were busy doing things like burning cars in Sweden in an attempt to start a race war. In England, the beheading of a soldier was real, according to MI5 and it was part of a plan to start a race war in the UK too. However, the operation is not producing the expected tumult and instead the high level planners are being rounded up. “Prime Minister Cameron’s response was to go on a holiday to Ibiza, his days as Tory leader are numbered,” is how MI5 summed up the situation.

One last note, a colleague of ours has just endured a month of incarceration in a Japanese mental hospital where he was forcibly drugged. He is now free again.

Tel Aviv University Professor Discovers New Exoplanet

A professor at Tel Aviv University and his students have discovered a new planet utilizing Einstein’s theory of relativity.


A professor at Tel Aviv University in collaboration with his students has discovered a new planet outside of the solar system , Tel Aviv University reports. The professor, Tsevi Mazeh, employed principles from Albert Einstein’s theory of relativity to search for the planet. The planet is set to be called Kepler 76-b, after the NASA spacecraft that was utilized to discover this planet. However, one of the doctoral students working on the project, Simchon Faigler, has dubbed the planet “Einstein’s Planet,” since the great Jewish physicists’ ideas were utilized to discover the planet.

For the last two years Mazeh and Faigler have been searching for planets using high powered telescopes in orbit around planet Earth to measure starlight. According Einsteins theory of relativity the quality of starlight with a planet around it is different then a star with no orbiting planets. “This is the first time this aspect of Einstein’s theory of relativity was used in discovering a planet. We’ve been looking for this illusive effect for over two years, and now we’ve indeed found a planet with it,” said Mazeh.

He continued, “When a light source moves toward us, then according to relativity theory, the light gets stronger, and when it moves away from us, the light gets weaker. The change is very small, and can be seen only with a telescope that measures the intensity of light with high accuracy. Earth-based telescopes can’t actively detect planets, because of the need for accurate measurement. But they did succeed in confirming our finding, and discerned that the changes they detected were indeed caused by the existence of a planet orbiting the star under observation.”

According to Tel Aviv University, “Kepler-76b is in the Cygnus (swan) constellation, located 2,000 light-years away from Earth. Its mass is double that of Jupiter and it has an extremely close orbit to its sun, with a day and a half cycle. The planet is so close to its sun that it doesn’t rotate and is “locked” in one position, so that only one hemisphere is exposed to the sun. That side has a surface temperature of 2,000 degrees centigrade.”

Prof. Abi Loeb, an Israeli who heads Harvard’s astronomy department, and Prof. Scott Gaudi had in the past suggested that planets could be found utilizing this strategy, yet no one had implemented their theory in reality until Mazeh and his team at Tel Aviv University discovered this new planet. This project was funded by a grant from the European Research Council and included cooperation with the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics.

USDA violates the Organic Foods Production Act

Draft rule on carrageenan, cellulose and “inert” synthetics in pesticides disregards decisions by the National Organic Standards Board

Comment before Monday, June 3, 2013 at 11:59 p.m. ET

Political corruption and power grabs usually happen behind closed doors. The Cornucopia Institute has consistently called for more transparency at the USDA’s National Organic Program, but quite frankly, this power grab, in broad daylight, is unexpected.

The National Organic Standards Board (NOSB), the citizen panel charged by Congress to determine which synthetics are allowed in organic food production, voted to prohibit the use of carrageenan in organic infant formula, to prohibit the use of synthetic microcrystalline cellulose as a food ingredient, and set a deadline for reviewing synthetic and potentially harmful ingredients in previously approved pesticide formulations.

Organic_Watchdog_buttonBy law, the USDA cannot allow a synthetic material in organics unless it has been approved by the NOSB. But the agency seems completely uninterested in following the law governing organics, the Organic Foods Production Act of 1990. The USDA’s proposed rule, released on May 3, disregards the NOSB’s decisions entirely on these three important topics.

Please send a comment to the USDA—let them know that they are acting outside their legal authority and that we will not stand by quietly while they protect corporate interests rather than the health of consumers and the environment.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR SUBMITTING COMMENT

Docket Number: AMS—NOP—11—0003

For the required field “Organization Name,” please enter “Citizen.”

The deadline for submitting comments is Monday, June 3.

SAMPLE LETTER (you may cut and paste, but you are encouraged to personalize)

The Organic Foods Production Act of 1990 (OFPA) does not give the USDA the authority to list materials on the National List unless they have been approved by the NOSB.

The USDA disregarded the proposed annotations, adopted by the NOSB, on List 3 inerts, carrageenan and cellulose (prohibiting or restricting their use).

I am especially concerned with the USDA’s decision not to prohibit the use of carrageenan in organic infant formula. Carrageenan is a harmful ingredient that has been linked to gastrointestinal inflammation and even cancer. It should be prohibited in all organic foods.

I would also like to see all ingredients in pesticide formulations used in organics reviewed as soon as possible, and the NOSB’s annotation would facilitate this.

“Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) on Wednesday offered an amendment to the Senate’s major farm bill that would allow states to require labels on genetically engineered foods.

“Today we have an opportunity with this amendment to affirm once and for all that states do have the right to label food that contains genetically engineered ingredients,” he said on the Senate floor.”*

Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) fought hard to give his state and others the right to label GMO foods, but faced non-sensical opposition from Monsanto-bought Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D-Mich.). Did reason win? Cenk Uygur breaks it down.

Monsanto: Profits Above Human Health

Dees Illustration

Stephen Lendman
Activist Post

On May 25, tens of thousands of people marched against Monsanto. They did so in dozens of countries worldwide. They had good reason.

They want consumer protections enacted. They want safe food to eat. They want governments assuring it. They want GMO foods and ingredients labeled.

March Against Monsanto” (MAM) headlined “Why Do We March?”

Independent research shows GMO foods and ingredients cause “serious health conditions such as the development of cancer tumors, infertility and birth defects.”

Former Monsanto executives run the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). An obvious conflict of interest exists.

Provisions of the March 2013 Monsanto Protection Act include “ban(ning) courts from halting the sale of Monsanto’s genetically-modified seeds.”

For too long, Monsanto has been the benefactor of corporate subsidies and political favoritism.

Organic and small farmers suffer losses while Monsanto continues to forge its monopoly over the world’s food supply, including exclusive patenting rights over seeds and genetic makeup.

Monsanto’s GM seeds are harmful to the environment; for example, scientists have indicated they have contributed to Colony Collapse Disorder among the world’s bee population.

MAM advocates:

  • buying organic foods;
  • boycotting Monsanto-owned companies;
  • repealing Monsanto Protection Act harmful provisions;
  • more independent research on the effects of GMOs on human health;
  • holding Monsanto officials and complicit politicians accountable;
  • informing the public about “Monsanto’s secrets;” and
  • “taking to the streets to show the world and Monsanto that we won’t take these injustices quietly.”
  • “We will not stand for cronyism. We will not stand for poison. That’s why we March Against Monsanto.”

In 1906, Upton Sinclair’s muckraking novel The Jungle aroused the public. It exposed monopoly capitalist excesses, worker exploitation, and unsanitary practices in slaughterhouses and meatpacking plants.

Food hazardous to human health was produced. Nothing was done to stop it. Unsuspecting consumers ate it.

Jack London said Sinclair’s book “depict(ed) what our country really is, the home of oppression and injustice, a nightmare of misery, an inferno of suffering, a human hell, a jungle of wild beasts.”

Theodore Roosevelt was president. Public outcry got results. The 1906 Pure Food Food and Drug Act became law. It fell short of full protection. It helped by prohibiting some of the worst abuses.

Yesteryear’s reforms are gone. They no longer exist. Deregulation ended them. Profits alone matter. What corporate America wants it gets. It runs the country. Agribusiness and other industry sectors occupy Washington.

They decide policy. They write laws Congress passes. Ordinary people have no say. Politicians are bought like toothpaste. Public health and environmental sanity are ignored. Corporate greed alone matters.

Business officials run the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Department of Health and Human Services (DHS), Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and other government agencies.

America’s food supply suffers. Genetically modified ones proliferate. They’re unsafe to eat. They’re hazardous to human health. Independent studies prove it.

Monsanto’s the world’s leading GMO seed producer. It’s profiting at the expense of human health. It wants all animal and vegetable life forms patented. It wants global food control.

It wants labeling prohibited. It wants reliable science buried. It wants issues of food safety ignored. It wants consumers to have no say.

It wants critics silenced. It wants them discredited. It has enormous influence in Washington. It gets its own way. It’s long past time that ended. Ordinary people must demand it. Food safety is too vital to ignore.

The World According to Monsanto chronicles its controversial history. It’s a powerful film. It explains some of the most toxic products ever sold.

Monsanto deception, pressure, collusion and bribery are standard tactics to do so.

Secret documents are exposed. Firsthand accounts are presented. Victims, scientists, politicians and others tell their own stories.

The Watchers

Chillymanjaro on May 26, 2013"NOAA predicts very active Atlantic hurricane season - 3 to 6 major hurricanes c" "NOAA predicts very active Atlantic hurricane season - 3 to 6 major hurricanes a" "NOAA predicts very active Atlantic hurricane season - 3 to 6 major hurricanes a" photo NOAApredictsveryactiveAtlantichurricaneseason-3to6majorhurricanesa_zpsa244383b.jpgJune 1 marks the beginning of Atlantic hurricane season. On May 23, 2013 NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center released its 2013 Atlantic Hurricane Season Forecast, predicting an active season. NOAA classifies 12 of the 18 seasons since 1995 as above normal, with eight being very active.

NOAA predicts (with 70% like hood) 13 to 20 named storms total, between 7 and 11 of which will be hurricanes, with 3 to 6 major hurricanes. An average for Atlantic hurricane season is 12 named storms, 6 hurricanes and 3 major hurricanes, so we can say NOAA calls for an above-average active season. NHC points that this year’s season may unleash stronger storms than in the last couple of years.

After Hurricane Sandy experience, NOAA warns that tropical storm and hurricane impacts are not limited only to the coastline, but strong winds, torrential rain, flooding and tornadoes often threaten further inland areas.

Oceanic and atmospheric conditions in the Atlantic basin are expected to produce more and stronger hurricanes. Three climate factors that  A continuation of the atmospheric climate pattern, which includes a strong west African monsoon (responsible for the ongoing era of high activity for Atlantic hurricanes), warmer-than-average water temperatures in the tropical Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean Sea and weak El Niño phenomena will strongly influence Atlantic hurricane activity.

This year’s season will be tracked with improved to forecast models, data gathering and the National Hurricane Center communication procedure for post-tropical cyclones. From July, a new supercomputer will run an upgraded Hurricane Weather Research and Forecasting (HWRF) model that provides significantly enhanced depiction of storm structure and improved storm intensity forecast guidance. NOAA’s Hurricane Hunter aircraft will use new Doppler radar data transmitted in real-time This will help forecasters better analyze rapidly evolving storm conditions, and these data could further improve the HWRF model forecasts by 10 to 15 %.
