Monsanto Drops Bid to Advance New GM Crops in Europe

Freda Art

Activist Post

Monsanto announced today that they are quitting their effort to get more genetically modified crops approved in Europe. 

"We will no longer be pursuing approvals for cultivation of new biotech crops in Europe," the biotech company said in a statement.

"Instead, we will focus on enabling imports of biotech crops into the EU and the growth of our current business there," Monsanto added.

Only two genetically modified crops are allowed to be grown in the European Union (Monsanto's MON 810 maize and BASF's Amflora potato). 

UK pushes GMO despite fears of global Monsanto monopoly

Britain is calling on the EU to ease its tight regulations on genetically modified food with the country's Environment Secretary saying GM farming is actually safer than many of the alternatives. Anti-GM activists are raising the alarm, they warn of side-effects ranging from simple allergies to devastating immune problems.

12 Different Approaches to Mood Boosting

Heather Callaghan

Were you surprised to see that 70% of Americans are on prescription drugs? A majority of them are anti-depressants which have dangerous and sometimes deadly results. Anyone who has ever visited SSRIstories.com knows what I'm talking about.

Well-meaning doctors don't often look beyond physical symptoms or even have time to inquire about your life or mindset. Anti-depressants, promoted by pharma reps, are sent home at the first sign of trouble - unhappiness. But aren't there many other ways to address mood issues? Actually yes, and this is only a sampling. It doesn't go into specific supplements, obvious benefits of a wholesome diet, or the hundreds of different works on spirituality, happiness, positivity, emotions, or the mind which may or may not help. This is to offer some modalities for quick relief.

The following modalities are dear to me - a list that narrows the scope a bit to techniques. I don't put all my eggs in any one, but I especially love the first five for addressing multiple issues. Look at them with fun and curiosity - take what you like a leave the rest. This is to show people that there are other options for when you're feeling low.

Connecticut Lawmakers Vote to Label GMO Foods

Activist Post

Fresh off global protests against Monsanto, the Connecticut House and Senate agreed on a bill to label genetically modified foods.

"There is mounting scientific evidence showing that genetically modified foods are harmful to our health," said Senate President Donald E. Williams (D-Brooklyn). "There's an increasing avalanche of public support (for labeling GMOs)." 

The original legislation would have made GMO labeling mandatory in Connecticut by 2016, but a compromise was made this week to add a trigger to the law requiring other state's participation.

Monsanto is a company feared and reviled by the public in equal measure. But whatever cases Monsanto has lost in the court of public opinion it has made up for in the courts of justice thanks to its revolving door with the upper reaches of Washington. Now, a new movement is seeking to galvanize grassroots resistance to the corporation, and derail its agenda.

Taking on Bladder Cancer with Cannabis

Constant Change

Approximately two and a half years ago I was diagnosed with stage 1 bladder cancer after having experienced blood in the urine and slight pain when urinating. Non-invasive surgery followed using a catheter, this was called a trans urethral resection.

Two years went by without a problem and then blood appeared again in the urine followed by another resection in December 2012. This was followed 2 months later (Feb 2013) by another to cauterize excessive bleeding and I was advised by the Urologist that the tumour was quite invasive.

In the meantime all sorts of scenarios passed through my mind including the finality (physical) of euthanasia because the thought of bladder removal and leading a healthy life as an invalid was not very appealing to me.

Got Hemp Milk? The Benefits of Hemp Milk

Wiki image

Joe Martino

Hemp milk is an incredibly nutritious and tasty alternative to cow's milk as it supplies the body with essential nutrients without the harm that dairy causes to the body. For some, it is an ethical choice to not drink animal milk, for others it is an intolerance. Others choose to avoid it for reasons of making healthier choices while others drink it as they want the nutritional benefits and like the taste. Whatever the circumstance, is it possible that we are not making the most healthy choice by drinking animal milk? For those who are looking for an alternative to animal milk, hemp milk is one option you should consider.

What is it made of?

Hemp milk is a vegan product made of a blend of hemp seeds and water. The mixture provides a creamy texture with a delicious taste some may describe as ‘nutty.’ Unlike cow's milk, hemp milk is easy for the body to digest and does not cause any of the health problems associated with milk.

10 Ways to Stop Being a Slave and Bring Down The Pyramids of Control,

Freedom - Wiki image

Activist Post

There are very real conspiracies in the world, and those conspiracies are always conducted by people "in the know" against those who are ignorant or naive of backroom machinations.

Past slavery was largely based on force (thus was much more obvious), but modern-day slavery is actually more widespread because global slave masters use all of the scientific tools at their disposal to win hearts and control minds, convincing us that our hands and feet are free, so we must be living self-directed lives.

There are signs that the mind-pyramids that technocrats have built to enforce their 21st-century global plantation slave system are crumbling as they press harder upon our cognitive ability to make sense of words and actions.  The owners of the shoulders on which the structure of tyranny is supported are beginning to leave in droves. The pyramids are falling as slaves begin to recognize their unconscious effort, and consciously encourage others to find a different line of work.

Here are 10 ways that you can help collapse all of the pyramids of control.

Anthony Freda Art

1.  Media and Intelligence - Information is knowledge and knowledge is power -- this is where it all starts.  Turn off the TV, stop passively receiving information that turns you into an idiot at the teat of the "idiot box."  Get creative:start a blog, a neighborhood newsletter, radio show, public access TV or YouTube channel, write encouraging letters to companies you appreciate and nasty ones to those you boycott; DO something; anything to increase awareness.  Homeschooling is another great way to help short circuit the negative influences of systematic programming. Even if you don't agree with homeschooling, or are not able, there are concepts that you can help introduce into your public school to enhance education. Intelligence - there are technologies to thwart constant surveillance, as well as low-tech solutions to high-tech tyranny. The Internet is being used to surveil the public, but it also provides an opportunity for the public to surveil and report the real criminals. Use the system against itself.

2. Health and Agriculture - Why do tyrannical systems always move to declare methods of independence such as farming, vitamins, raw milk, and natural medication like cannabis as underground contraband systems that threaten the health of society?  Clearly because this is a cornerstone of freedom.  Learn to make your own medicines, trade on the underground, support other states (and countries) who have embraced food freedom, and stand your ground by forming local community resistance against food and health tyranny.  Moreover, simply making your mind and body stronger by pursuing what is natural and healthy will give you more power to challenge the system in every other way.
3. Energy and Technology - Support true economic development and pursue open source solutions to all technological problems that can affect humanity on the widest scale. These are the technologies that have been suppressed in the past, their creators destroyed; but now there are too many people pursuing goals to free humanity.  Embrace innovation and technology, but only as it leads to self-empowerment, self-determination, and genuinely helps the human and environmental condition. There are reportedly many free-energy patents being kept from the public.  These technologies can't be kept secret forever as long as the Internet remains free and open.  Support all efforts to maintain Internet freedom and the right to pursue innovation.

4. Mobility and Flexibility - Always be willing to adapt and move.  The structure of tyranny might be global, but there are always pockets of freedom that tyranny ignores -- normally based on economic interest.  Become adaptable, don't buy into the "American Dream" of having possessions to define your self-worth.  Once you discard the unimportant things, look for specific towns, states, or countries to escape economic decline and those which promote freedom. It's a difficult decision to pick up and move, especially when extended family comes into play, but discuss your ideas and the evidence for your concerns openly and honestly, and be the first to pioneer the building of a new future -- if things begin to collapse in earnest, you will soon be sought after by those who once doubted your "crazy" reasoning.
5. Prepare for the Worst - Along the same lines as being mobile and flexible, make sure that you store enough supplies to get through a few months or more of tough times.  The current system relies on your dependence and they can easily control those who live just-in-time lifestyles. Most people don't realize how much they "need" the system until something like a blizzard knocks out their power and wipes out the grocery store shelves.  It's wise to store back-up food, have the ability to produce food, gather tools and other items needed during power outages or other disasters, and actively pursue any and all other survival prepping and self-sufficiency techniques.

6. Refuse to Pay Unjust Debt - This is a moral decision based on the information that much of what was created to be a "loan" was based on a predatory system.  As they say, ignorance of the law is no excuse, and that is duly noted, but when confronted with an enemy that has deliberately contrived devious ways to steal productivity and the fruits of honest labor, then the principle of justifiable self-defense is invoked.  Forget about your credit score; it is the invisible chain that keeps you in prison.  Refuse to pay debts that you know were fraudulently imposed. Remember, the banks never had the money they "lent" to you in the first place; they created it out of nothing to buy your servitude. If you are hesitant to simply quit paying the criminal banks, then learn how to reduce your exposure to all debts.
7. Create New Banking Systems - We have seen economic collapse taking down countries like dominoes across the third world, and now the first.  These money junkies cannot and will not stop.  It is up to us to develop systems which permit us to completely withdraw our support for the current system and shield us from manipulated collapses.  This may be the most productive way to break free from modern slavery; whether it's switching to local credit unions, storing precious metals instead of cash, engaging in barter systems or using alternative currencies, or supporting full-blown monetary reform.

8. Learn a Skill - Learn as many skills outside of your day job as possible.  This can be as simple as giving more attention to your hobbies like fishing, hunting, gardening, painting, blogging, tinkering on cars, building things, sewing, cooking, etc. Whatever useful skill you're most passionate about, learn more about it, become an expert at it, and acquire the necessary tools to start a side business with it. By doing this, you'll reduce the dependence on your job and find much more fulfillment in life.  Remember, skills are the only form of wealth that can't be taken from you. Additionally, form clubs or partnerships with your neighbors and share your skills and tools to form a stronger community that will be resistant to whatever the systems of control throw your way.

9. Boycott - Activists have enjoyed many recent victories through boycott, most notably the rapid removal of "pink slime" meat from major supermarket chains following public outcry once they became aware of the product.  It goes to show that the public still holds the power over corporations, but the masses must be educated before they're moved to action.  Not you though.  Readers of this post know exactly what companies to boycott and why. Start living your principles and follow through on your knowledge.  Voting with your dollars DOES work, but not if the aware crowd refuses to do it.

10. Taxes - Taxes are the most controversial of all -- the one that catches the most flak, so the one that must be most directly over the target. How do you feel knowing that money is extracted from you by force to be injected into systems around the world that create violence, rip apart cultures, and put us on a path of complete annihilation and self-destruction?  This is slave-like thinking in its highest form of denial.  No Constitution of any country anywhere in the world openly recognizes that it is lawful to forcefully extract money you have earned enslaving you for life to kill others with it, upon penalty of imprisonment. It's the final chain to be broken, and is admittedly the thickest.  But how can a machine be built without the funding to build it?  The entire prison system we see around us has been built with our own money. Did you authorize it? Did you authorize the preemptive wars, bank bailouts, corporate subsidies, the high-tech surveillance grid that enslaves you?

Significantly, these are all things you can do on your own.  You don't need to influence politicians, or ignite a mass protest, or wait for an uprising.  There is no cavalry coming. You are the change you seek. Get out there and become more self-reliant and the system will lose its grip on you.  If enough of us do this, the system will fall apart by its own unsustainable making.  Refuse to be a slave today and unchain others by sharing this article and implementing the tips on this list.
