As time goes on the main-stream media owned by cor-porations has degenerated intoeven more anti-human report-ing.Suppressed are many stories

about the removal of supple-ments and vitamins from publicaccess.

In Germany, it is required tohave a government pharmacyprescribe vitamins -- Vitamin Ecosts $80+ a bottle for instance.

Here in Canada, and the U.S.too -- we are seeing legislationadopted to stop access to such

basic health necesssities.Is it another population control

system you may ask.From uoridated water caus-

ing reduced IQ levels for chil-dren, chemtrails containing

aluminum and barium advanc-ing Alzheimers, a lack of sup-plements and vitamins beingavailable -- we could very well

say there is a population con-trol being instituted. Radiationfrom Fukushima is overwhelm-ing -- another story that is sup-

pressed -- anyone for moving toArgentina?Ten times the radiation of

Chernobyl has been releasedfrom the Fukushima nuclear

plants. Chernobyl radiation hasbeen credited with the earlydeaths of 900,000 people!Corporate media is just that --

corporate conspiracy for prof-its that ignore the health of thevast majority.Will corporate people them-

selves be radiated? Yes. Thatswhats so ugly about this sce-nario. Theyll kill their own forquicker prots!-- Paul Armstrong

As winter's dark days loom, why vitaminD supplement experts explain why we stillneed a daily dose of sun... from a bottleBy ALICE SMELLIEVitamin D is actually a hormone that is

made naturally by the body from fat un-der the skin in response to sunlight.And, astonishingly, more than half the

British population dont get enough, withone in six severely decient in Vitamin Dby early spring.

Evidence suggests this may raise the riskof a host of problems from bone-thinning,heart disease and cancer to diabetes andeven depression. The answer, experts agree,is taking a supplement throughout autumnand winter.So just why are these pills made from

sheeps wool and mushrooms so vital toour health?A little sunshine goes a long way: But one

in six Brits are severely decient in VitaminD by early spring (posed by model)WHY WE DON'T GET ENOUGH VITA-

MIN DWe need ten to 15 minutes of direct sun-

light on unprotected skin several timesa week from May to September to makeenough Vitamin D to see us through thewinter. Darker skins may need longer as the

pigmentation doesnt allow such efcientproduction, and fairer skin less time.

Outside these months, the sun is at thewrong angle to produce the right wave-length of ultraviolet light, and no VitaminD is produced.People are so aware of the dangers of UV

damage that they often avoid it and wereespecially careful of children, because of thelink between early sunburn and skin cancer.In October, our levels of Vitamin D shouldstill be acceptable, assuming we have goneout in the sun during the summer, says DrElina Hypponen of the Medical ResearchCouncils Centre of Epidemiology for ChildHealth.But Vitamin D is stored for only between

one and two months in the body. From nowon, levels start to drop and by January al-most everyone will have below optimumlevels. Were starting at a disadvantage this

year after an appalling summer. I recom-mend taking supplements now.

WE ALL NEED MORE OF THE SUN-SHINE VITAMINThe body needs Vitamin D to absorb cal-

cium, which is essential for bone health.Deciency increases the risk of the bone-thinning disease osteoporosis and fracturesby up to 60 per cent and can also cause osteomalacia, a bone-softening condition.

More...Cheers to a pint of bone

builder: Older womencould guard against osteoporosis by drinking beerListen to your waterworks! (they're telling

you something)There is evidence it may slow the progres-

sion of cancer, says John Monson, profes-sor of Endocrinology at The London Clinic.And Dr Hypponen says: There are links

between Vitamin D deciency and raisedrisk of heart disease, cancer and diabetesStudies show keeping levels up may helpprevent seasonal infections such as colds.

In the past few years children have started

to develop rickets, a bone-softening diseaseassociated with the Victorians and with lackof sunshine. Last year, Leicester Royal In-rmary reported 200 cases of rickets beingadmitted and last November, SouthamptonGeneral Hospital said that one in ve chil-dren tested for bone problems had signs ofrickets.These increasing numbers are frustrating

because its so easily preventable as Vita-min D supplements are inexpensive, saysDr Helen Storr, consultant in paediatricendocrinology at St Barts and the LondonNHS Trust.

Those most at risk of deciency are preg-nant and breast-feeding women, and chil-dren, who need it for bone growth.It has been observed that pregnant women

are more likely to need a caesarean if theyhave low levels of Vitamin D. Even new-

born babies can be decient because theyarent absorbing enough from their mothers.The elderly, housebound, dark-skinned

and those who cover up for social or reli-gious reasons are also at risk.

HOW MUCH IS ENOUGH?Most EU countries recommend 10 micro-

grams (mcg) or 400IU (international units)of Vitamin D a day but that only ten percent of this should come from the diet.There is no denitive UK guideline.A salmon llet contains about 7mcg, and

egg yolks less than 0.5mcg. Some break-fast cereals and margarines have Vitamin Dadded Special K has about 8mcg per 100gand margarines contain between 7mcg and9mcg.It isnt practical to get all your needs from

food, says Dr Hypponen. No one is goingto eat a generous portion of oily sh everyday. Thats why almost all of us could ben-et from a supplement.Professor Ashley Grossman, endocrinolo-

gist at Oxford University, is seeing increas-ing numbers of patients suffering from ei-

ther deciency or insufciency.Deciency is suggested to be less than

25nmol [nanomoles per litre] in the blood,which is the point at which bone healthstarts to be affected, he says.Finding out if you are decient involves a

straightforward blood test. He recommendsthat everyone takes a supplement.

HOW TO CHOOSE A SUPPLEMENT

There are two forms of Vitamin D. D2comes from plant sources such as mush-

rooms or is synthetic, and D3 fromsheeps wool. There is a slight differ-ence in their chemical structure butthis shouldnt affect the way they areprocessed by the body, says Dr Hyp-ponen.Prof Grossman recommends tak-

ing 1000IU or 25mcg daily. 400IU willmaintain levels but wont push them higherif they are already low, says Dr Hypponen,who thinks it should take as little as a monthto push levels back up to a respectable levelDr Storr suggests that newborns can have

400IU a day and older children up to1000IU. A dangerous dose would dependon the individual but it would be in the tens

or even hundreds of thousands taken over along period.Dr Carrie Ruxton, of the Health Supple-

ments Information Service, suggests thatVitamin D is safe to take with any medica-tions if you are taking an over-the-counterone.Our modern lifestyles are partly respon-

sible for the problem of D-deciency re-emerging, says Dr Hypponen.And we are only just beginning to un-

derstand the full impact Vitamin D has onhealth.

FDA: Would ban all nutritional andsupplemental ingredients- Alan CarubaWhile watching a television commercial

for some prescription medication, have youever wondered why something it states maykill you or cause serious side effects ever

was permitted to be marketed to the public?For decades I have taken a full range of

vitamins, minerals and herbal supplementsevery morning. I dont get head colds orany unwanted side affects. In my seventhdecade, I enjoy exceptional good health.An annual physical check up is always thesame. I am ne.Millions of Americans benet from a daily

regimen of vitamins, minerals, and herbalsupplements. Athletes use whey proteinpowders. Body builders take amino acids.Others augment food products that lack suf-cient nutritional value. Their health andwellness is now threatened by the Obamaadministrations Food and Drug Adminis-tration (FDA).Banning Health!On the Friday before the Fourth of July

weekend, the FDA published a 47-page

document, that would ban all nutritional andsupplemental ingredients by requiring them

to le documentation involving multi-mil-lion-dollar testing and the regulations wouldbe retroactive to 1994!

This will destroy the manufacturers ofthese products because most are small com-panies that could not afford such costs. Its

not like there is a vast body of informationthat demonstrates any threat to health fromvitamins and minerals. Quite the contrary.There is ample information on their benets.There are libraries lled with books devotedto this.Who would benet from such regulation

of the natural supplement industry? BigPharma. The same pharmaceutical compa-nies that have a long record of putting forthFDA-approved medications that later proveto be lethal are looking to use the regulatorypowers of FDA to literally increase levels ofillness.In the same way Obamacare has been dem-

onstrated to not only be unconstitutional,but also a threat to the health of millionsespecially senior citizensthis callous ad-ministration now threatens to remove fromthe shelves of stores that sell nutritional

supplements, from pharmacies, and fromsupermarkets and other outlets, the vita-

mins, minerals, and herbal supplements onwhich millions depend for wellness.This constitutes a criminal conspiracy and

Congress, which has ceded its law-makingauthority to the FDA, must hear from every-one in order to stop this assault on every-ones health.

Frank Murray, the former editor of BetterNutrition, Great Life, and Lets Live, is theauthor and co-author of fty books on healthand nutrition. They include Natural Supple-ments for Diabetes, Health Benets Derivedfrom Sweet Orange, and 100 Super Supple-ments for a Longer Life. He is a member ofthe New York Academy of Sciences.One of Murrays books, Sunshine and Vi-

tamin D, notes that With the hundreds ofclinical trials published on Vitamin D inrecent yearsI read one study with 132referencesit is obvious that the sunshinevitamin no longer has to play second ddleto the other vitamins. The same can be saidfor vitamins A, B, C, and E. All have amplydemonstrated their value. Add to them, zink,potassium, selenium, and other mineral sup-plements. All those prostate advertisementsare about herbal supplements!

The Obama administration that has made

obesity its pet project is also famous forphotos of the President eating every kind offast food. It is rank hypocrisy, but the pro-posed FDA ban is literally life threatening.

Write, email, and fax your Representa-tive and Senator or MP in Canada to ensure

that Congress intervenes with the FDA inthe same fashion it is struggling to protectus against an out-of-control EnvironmentalProtection Agency. In particular, contact themembers of the House Oversight and Gov-ernment Reform committee.Your life and the lives of your loved ones

literally depend on stopping this attack onreal nutrition.Americans are losing the freedom they

take for granted as Big Government intrudeson every personal choice they make. TheObama administration has demonstrated itstotal indifference to Americas senior citi-zens access to affordable medical care andnow all Americans ability to access nutri-tional supplements.You are being protected into an early

grave!Alan Caruba, 2011

ego County Water Authority shows watergushing rom an electricity plant in Playasde Rosarito, Mexico, next to a site wheregovernment agencies in the western UnitedStates are considering putting large desali-nation plants. Details are being worked out,but these vast amounts o water used at theelectricity plant could be used or desalina-tion at the proposed site. (AP Photo/San Di-ego County Water Authority)SAN DIEGO (AP) Mexico ships televi-

sions, cars, sugar and medical equipment tothe United States. Soon, it may be sendingwater north.Western states are looking south o the bor-

der or water to ll drinking glasses, ushtoilets and sprinkle lawns, as our major U.S.water districts help plan one o two huge de-salination plant proposals in Playas de Ro-sarito, about 15 miles south o San Diego.Combined, they would produce 150 milliongallons a day, enough to supply more than300,000 homes on both sides o the border.Te plants are one strategy by both coun-

tries to wean themselves rom the drought-prone Colorado River, which ows 1,450miles rom the Rocky Mountains to the Seao Cortez. Decades o riction over the Colo-rado, in act, are said to be a hurdle to currentdesalination negotiations.Te proposed plants have also sparked con-

cerns that American water interests lookingto Mexico are simply trying to dodge U.S.environmental reviews and legal challenges.Desalination plants can blight coastal land-

scapes, sucking in and killing sh eggs and

larvae. Tey require massive amounts o elec-tricity and dump millions o gallons o brineback into the ocean that can, i not properlydisposed, also be harmul to sh.But desalination has helped quench demand

in Australia, Saudi Arabia and other coun-tries lacking resh water.

Dozens o proposals are on the drawingboard in the United States to address waterscarcity but the only big project to recentlywin regulators blessings would produce 50million gallons a day in Carlsbad, near SanDiego. A smaller plant was approved last year

in Monterey, some 110 miles south o SanFrancisco.Mexico is a relative newcomer to desalina-

tion. Its largest plant supplies 5 million gal-lons a day in the Baja Caliornia resort towno Cabo San Lucas, with a smattering o tinyones on the Baja peninsula. Skeptics alreadyquestion the two proposed plants in Playasde Rosarito known as Rosarito Beach toAmerican expatriates and visiting collegespring-breakers.It raises all kinds o red ags, said Joe

Geever, Caliornia policy coordinator or theSurrider Foundation, an environmentalistgroup that has ought the Carlsbad plant oryears in court, saying it will kill marine lieand require too much electricity.Water agencies that supply much o South-

ern Caliornia, Phoenix, Las Vegas and ijua-na, Mexico, are pursuing the plant that would

produce 50 million gallons a day in Rosaritonear an existing electricity plant. Tey com-missioned a study last year that ound noatal aws and ordered another one that willinclude a cost estimate, with an eye toward

starting operations in three to ve years.Potential disagreements between the two

countries include how the new water storeswill be used.Te U.S. agencies want to consider helping

pay or the plant and letting Mexico keepthe water or booming areas o ijuana and

Rosarito. In exchange, Mexicowould surrender some o its al-lotment rom the ColoradoRiver, sparing the cost o layingpipes rom the plant to Calior-nia.Mexico would never give up

water rom the Colorado, whicheeds seven western U.S. statesand northwest Mexico, said JoseGutierrez, assistant director orbinational aairs at MexicosNational Water Commission.Mexicos rights are enshrined ina 1944 treaty.Te treaty carries great signi-

cance in our country. We have to protect itercely, Gutierrez said.Rick Van Schoik, director o Arizona State

Universitys North American Center orransborder Studies, said laying a pipelineacross the border would be too costly.

Its expensive enough to desalinate. I justdont see how it calculates out, he said.Te other big plant proposal joins Consoli-

dated Water Co., a Cayman Islands compa-ny, with Mexican investors. Teir proposalwould send much o its 100 million gallonsa day rom Rosarito to the United States viaa new pipeline, with operations beginning in2014.Mexico isnt likely to approve both plants,

said Gutierrez, whose government is spon-soring the 50-million-gallon-a-day plant withthe Metropolitan Water District o SouthernCaliornia, the San Diego County Water Au-thority, the Central Arizona Water Conserva-tion District and the Southern Nevada WaterAuthority.A key question is whether Mexico wi ll allow

water rst used at the neighboring electricplant to be desalinated a giant potential

savings. Caliornia recently adopted rulesthat prohibit the states electric plants romsucking in vast amounts o seawater to cooltheir machinery.Te Carlsbad plant illustrates how dicult

it can be to build a plant in Caliornia. Posei-don Resources Corp., based in Stamord,Conn., has survived about a decade o legalchallenges and regulatory review.Te company, which plans to begin major

construction when it secures nancing, wasrequired to restore 66 acres o wetlands andtake other measures to oset carbon emis-sion rom the electricity it consumes.Te San Diego County Water Authority is

also considering a plant at Southern Calior-nias Camp Pendleton that would produce upto 150 million gallons a day. Poseidon wantsto build one in Huntington Beach, near LosAngeles, that would churn out 50 million gal-lons a day. Tose ideas ace signicant chal-lenges.Te planets will never be in alignment like

they were in Carlsbad, said om Pankrantz,editor o Water Desalination Report. Teyhad the right project, at the right place, at theright time.Te San Diego agency wants to get 10 per-

cent o the regions water rom desalinationby 2020 as a way to lessen its dependenceon the Colorado River, which is connectedby aqueduct about 200 miles away. ijuanaalso wants to rely less on the river, a prioritythat gained urgency afer a 2010 earthquake

knocked out its aqueduct or about threeweeks.Te U.S. and Mexico can save money by

joining orces, achieving economies o scale,said Halla Razak, the San Diego agencys Col-orado River program manager. At least halo the plants water would stay in Mexico, shesaid.Mexico is the entity that is driving the proj-

ect, even more than the United States, shesaid.U.S. and Mexican ocials say they expect

the new plants will adhere to the same stan-dards as Caliornia, including water quality,but that Mexicos regulators may act asterand shield sponsors rom legal challenges.Te Mexicans will ask all the same ques-

tions that we ask here, but its not endless law-suits, said Mark Watton, general manager oOtay Water District, which would buy about

20 million gallons a day rom ConsolidatedsMexico plant or its San Diego-area custom-ers. You get an answer quicker.

NOTE: David Robinson has visitedGrass Roots Survival ofces to advise uson the McGuinty green raud and bil-

lions involved. In subsesquent issues wewill inorm readers about a recent articlein the NOWmagazine purporting to bean alternative magazine. More likely weeel that the NOW is just another NWOshill. -- Editor -------------

by David Robinson as seen on WindConcerns Ontario websiteOntario municipalities are aced with

new demands or land and resources to beprovided or Renewable Energy or Alter-native Energy projects. Tese are usuallyIndustrial Wind urbines installations orSolar Panel installations. Tese projectstend to create divisions in the communi-ties or a variety o reasons. Some peopleear with good reason or their medicalwell being because o close proximity o

the turbines to their dwellings. Othersembrace the idea as it means a source oconstant income, unlike their arming in-come not to mention sometimes healthydown payments or option payments. In-variably there are signicant resource andcash outlays by municipalities and some-times these outlays are not easily or appar-ently recoverable.Te Green Energy Act (GEA)

has signicantly cur-tailed the right o lo-cal government toregulate these newinstallations. Orhas it? Te en-ergy companiesare required to

have communitymeetings and passthrough an approvalprocess at the Ministryo the Environment. Tesemeetings alone could provide asource o revenue to the municipalitiesand oer an opportunity to wrestback some control o the planningprocess. Te wind companies havetaken to invoking the participationo the Ontario Provincial Police ataxpayer unded body and to alsohiring security companies to vetattendees o the meetings. Munici-palities are missing the opportunityto pass local laws regulating theconduct and security issues surrounding

these meetings and they are missing theopportunity to charge or these services.For example: I think it is time or mu-

nicipalities to institute a ee or publicmeetings that are specically about Al-ternative Energy. A ee o say $50,000 permeeting sounds about right. Aer all thewind companies have shown themselveshow onerous and dangerous it can be toconduct these meetings. For discussiono this point see the article on Wind Con-cerns Ontario regarding the treatment oa couple at a meeting regarding the BigTunder Wind Park.Further, a security clearance or all alter-

native energy presenters should be man-datory along with a criminal backgroundcheck to be carried out by the local police

orce not by the OPP. Te criminalbackground checks and security checksshould be presented to council well inadvance o any public meeting. You cantbe too careul about your investments

these days. Protection rom scam artistsis o paramount concern in any invest-ment and you can be sure the Alternative

Energy companies are investigating youto make sure that you, the individual oncouncil will be a sae and reliable partner.You should do no lessAlso, are the local governments doing

due diligence on the wind companiesthat wish to construct wind turbines andsolar arms? I would think that nancialstatements and an up-ront investigationee should just be part o the process. Teenergy companies are asking or the localcommunity to make a nancial invest-ment in them. Where is your due dili-gence? Why are you not asking these com-panies to provide a locally incorporatedcompany with a local public oce whereall matters can be directed whether it belawsuits or local payments collected. Tis

is quite a common device used by stategovernments in the United States so thatis easier to contact, negotiate with or suemultinational rms.As ar as actually proving service to the

alternative energy industry it seems tome that a

ee or engineering and design services as

well as alterations to local emergency ser-vices should start with an up-ront ee o$250,000 or initial planning and servicecoordination. Road permits, re controlpermits and Green Fees or assessment omunicipal environmental impact shouldalso be considered as lucrative sources oincome. Further companies should be re-quired to post bonds or provide proo oinsurance (provided by a Canadian Carri-er) against lawsuits, property devaluation,medical problems and law suits and soon. We need to concern ourselves that theIndustrial Wind urbines will be main-tained in proper and sae working order.We also need to concern ourselves withdecommissioning o the structures whentheir service lie is at an end. o some

readers, these ees may appear to be arbi-trarily high and punitive, but, I assure youthat engineering and nancial expertisedoes not come cheap. Investigating theclaims, reviewing the setbacks and con-

sulting with people who could potentiallybe harmed or inconvenienced by theseinstallations does not come cheap. Fur-

ther, we know that many environmentalorganizations and agencies have boughtin to the concept o green energy and donot do any signicant investigation as topossible harmul environmental eects onfora and auna.A urther issue o course is noise and

noise abatement. Frankly the provin-cial government has not done a proper

job. Tey have done nothing signicantto measure noise levels. Te Ministry oHealth has only reviewed old graduatestudent developed or literature surveystudies. Te Ministry o the Environment(MOE) has not even developed rigorousmeasurement doctrine or conductingnoise tests. Tis ailure to act has been welldocumented by Wind Concerns Volun-

teers and similar organizations like WindAction Ontario. You could well be respon-sible or conducting these tests in the aceo provincial inaction. Are you preparedto bear the burden o the costs or ace theliability o inaction? Have you purchased

insurance or required bonds to holdcouncil harmless against

any actions thatmight be

brought? h i s

I personally wouldlike to see the darn things gone rom theace o the earth, since I cannot see any

value in them other than large developersand a handul o armers making moneyin the short term. Not many however arelooking beyond the end o their nose. Forexample, What will happen when the tur-

bines are abandonned i the governmentpayouts stop? Just with a decrease in rateor solar supposedly stopped hundredso contracts or solar panels installed onarms. Luckily armers managed to getthis rate pushed back up to make theirprojects viable yet they cant even un-derstand that rates o return are basedon 6 hours a day sunlight. In a north-ern country like Canada, we should onlyrely on 2 hours a day. Rural municipali-ties are generally not ingratiated withcouncil members having good businessacumen, as well many just dont wantto do the oot work to investigate ullywhat this all means in the long term, soinstead move orward simply based onwhat appears to be the avoured vote.

Wind Energy development unortu-nately still is viewed by many as a Cin-derella story or their community.

Routine Radiation spikes in TokyoRadiation spikes in Tokyo neighbor-

hood, ofcials sayBy the CNN Wire StaffRadiation levels were higher in Tokyos

Setagaya ward than in the evacuation areaaround Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant,according to ward Mayor Nobuto Hosaka.Radiation there is higher than around Fu-

kushimaThe damaged Fukushima Daiichi plant

may not be the source, ofcials sayTokyo (CNN) -- An extraordinarily

high level of radiation was detected inone spot in a central Tokyo residentialdistrict, prompting the local govern-ment to cordon off the small area, localofcials said.Radiation levels were higher in To-

kyos Setagaya ward than in the evacu-ation area around the badly damagedFukushima Daiichi nuclear plant, ac-cording to ward Mayor No- but oHosaka.We are shocked to see

such high radiation level wasdetected in our neighbor-hood. We cannot leave it as

is, Hosaka told reporters.But the tsunami-struck Fu-kushima plant may not bethe source of the radiation,Hosaka said later on statetelevision.

Ofcials searching for the cause foundglass bottles in a cardboard box in thebasement of a house in the neighborhoodwhich sent radiation detectors off thecharts, he said on NHK.We suspect these bottles in basement

could be the cause of

the high radiation reading and we are hast-ily working to conrm it, he said.Radiation experts are now checking what

contaminated the bottles, a Setagaya wardofcial told CNN, declining to be named inline with policy.

meters) from the Fukushima No. 1 nuclearplant.

The discovery raised concerns that leakedradiation from three Fukushima reactorsthat suffered meltdowns after the Marchearthquake and tsunami may be more wide-spread than thought, The Japan Times re-ported Wednesday.

The U.S. government issued a travel alertlast week, warning Americans in Japan toa v o i d areas near the stricken reactors.T h e alert recommends that U.S. citi-

zens stay away from areas with-in 20 kilometers (12 miles) ofthe nuclear facility. The StateDepartment also admonishedAmericans to stay awayfrom territory northwest of

the plant in a zone that Japan

calls the Deliberate Evacua-tion Area. The zone includesIitate-mura, the Yamagiya dis-trict of Kawamata-machi, Kat-surao-mura, Namie-machi andparts of Minamisoma.

which currently stands at $1,700, will ex-ceed $2,800 by 2015 and be over $4,100 by2030, it predicts.Certain costs werent included in the

governments estimates, such as ination,transmitting electricity to the provincial gridfrom wind and solar facilities and backupgeneration for potential disruptions, thestudy found.Those higher costs would erode the com-

petitiveness of businesses in Ontario and

pose challenges for low-income households,said University of Guelph professor and ag-ricultural economist Glenn Fox, who co-au-thored the study with retired banker ParkerGallant.Bills could climb even higher because the

study didnt include other potential costs,such as possible cost overruns as the prov-

ince refurbishes its nuclear eet.The study said it found a number of omit-

ted costs that werent included in Ontarioslong-term energy plan, which was releasedlast year by the governing Liberals.The plan underestimates the capital costs

of wind turbines, for example, and fails toattach any individual dollar values to spe-cic transmission projects to put renewableenergy projects on the provincial grid, thestudy said.The plan also lowballs the costs of backing

up renewable energy with natural gas-redplants when the wind isnt blowing and thesun isnt shining, saying it will cost $1.8billion when it will likely be closer to $9.6billion.

Energy Minister Brad Duguid called thestudy bogus, saying its full of technicalerrors and incorrect assumptions. He alsotook aim at its authors, saying Gallant isknown for opposing renewable power.Its not an honest study, Duguid said in

an interview.There are a number of areas in there that

theyve miscalculated _ probably deliber-

ately _ but certainly the conclusions theyvereached are simply incorrect and bogus.Gallant said he started examining the ener-

gy sector after receiving an ugly electric-ity bill, but stands by the studys ndings.And rates are going up. The Ontario En-

ergy Board announced Monday that resi-dents using smart meters will see their bills

increase 1.8 per cent starting in November,representing an extra $2.11 on the electric-ity line.Gallant and Foxs study also concluded

that the governments push for green energyis affecting the provinces nances as well.Due to the costs of connecting renewables

to the provincial grid, Hydro One has re-duced its dividend payments to the province,affecting the governments ability to reducea provincial debt that currently stands at$230 billion.Between 2004 and 2008, Hydro Ones

average dividend payment to the provincewas 64 per cent of earnings. In the rst ninemonths of 2010, it was down to less thanve per cent, the study said.Ontario Power Generation, which was ex-

cluded from wind and solar projects, willlose revenue because those projects are putat the front of the line when accessing theprovincial grid, the study said.

That means it will take longer for OPG torepay the stranded debt that was due whenformer Ontario Hydro was split into threedifferent entities, it said.

One of the largest hidden costs involves lo-cal distribution companies, who can applyfor a rate increase if their revenues deterio-rate due to energy conservation efforts andthe shortfall will be charged to ratepayers,the study said.It also casts doubt on Liberal claims that

the Green Energy Act wins 50,000 new jobs.

Premier Dalton McGuinty often toutedthose job-creation claims during the Oct. 6election campaign, making frequent stops atplants that manufacture wind and solar pow-er components as he travelled the province.How the government arrived at that num-

ber has never been explained, the studysaid. And creating those 50,000 new greenenergy jobs will require ratepayer subsidiesof about $200,000 a year for each position.Thats a lot of money, and how many

other jobs could have been made if we hadn'tincreased taxes to pay for it, said ProgressiveConservative Leader Tim Hudak.Hudak promised during the campaign to

tear up key sections of the Liberals greenenergy policy, but failed to topple Mc-Guinty, who returned to ofce with a re-duced mandate of 53 seats _ one short of amajority government.At the very least with this new govern-

ment situation, lets shine the light, letshave transparency on how much this costsand how many contracts are actually outthere, and what its going to mean for theaverage family, Hudak said Monday.

The Liberals have been downplaying thecosts of their energy plan, but the study takesaim at the wrong target, said New DemocratPeter Tabuns.This report goes after green energy, when

we think the biggest cost risks are nuclearpower and the proteering thats going on,he said.

Stop The Lies! Green energy costs!Recently, a so-called reporter statedreal estate values soar with a wind

farm on land! In reality Real Estate Pricesdrop! Ask Melancthons ill farmers!

Green Energy 40% higher cost!McGuinty Fraud! Also Without promised Jobs!

Kanekota update Oct. /11KanekotaOctober 5, 2011The package I sent to General Sir Peter Wall

was accepted in England on May 5 and itcontained evidence of high treason againstcurrent nance minister Jim Flaherty re-garding his property on lot 1 concession 11,Clearview township. As you can see fromthe photograph Flaherty is doing pretty goodwith two golf holes in his backyard. So hereally is continuing to hide behind pictures ofher majesty while ignoring the Imperial lawto enrich himself personally. He will be talk-ing with a military tribunal.The people up here have been trying to

ght the proposed mega-quarry through theAdmiralty system which is only about mon-ey, it is for banks and corporations to settlemonetary disputes. All consensus systems inCanada fall under Admiralty Law. The onlyinstrument that supersedes Admiralty Lawis a Royal proclamation. The Royal procla-mation 1784 is also commonly known as theHaldimand Proclamation and it is an orderthat the British military will protect 6 miles

around the River Grand from Lake Erie to itssource, forever. This is the highest law in theBritish empire and the precedent is the en-actment of the Balfour declaration in 1947which created Israel.I have asked the General to set up a military

tribunal which has jurisdiction over this pro-tectorate. When jurisdiction is set, Admiral-ty statutes that protect shareholder identity donot apply. When we remove the masks mostpeople will be aghast to nd many of theirformer and current ministers are the actualshareholders of the Highland Group.

The farmers are holding an event calledFoodstock on October 16 of this year to raiseawareness and money to ght the takeover ofprime agricultural land by a corporate entity.When I tried to nd out whom was in chargeof entertainment one of the farmers directedme to Nanci Malek (whom is also a Melanc-thon councilor). When I told her I want aspot on the mainstage for my group Projectfor Peace she said oh, the mainstage is allbooked with Sarah Harmer and Jim CuddyI told her I was insulted and outraged that

they choose to ignore us again. Many peoplewhom know me in my 11 years up here arestunned that I was not even considered for anappearance, since this is what I sing about.

The Melancthon council has changed since Ivisited there and read aloud the Royal Procla-mation 1784, those retired councilors will allappear before a military tribunal and explainwhy they chose to ignore the highest law. Thecurrent councilors are put on notice with thiswriting. If you choose to ignore the Royalproclamation you will also be talking withthe tribunal. It reminds me when I met thencouncilor Ford about the keys to the schoolproperty. He told me I cant step on any toes,its a real sensitive issue he will also be talk-ing with then tribunal.(read the story http://unitystrengthpeace.com/2010/10/23/kaneko-ta-update-3/ ) You can choose to be the rstto follow the law and this will ensure yourgood being with the Crown, ignore it at yourown peril.

There have been many publicity events toraise awareness about the mega-quarry in-

cluding a staged incident called Unity Ridecomplete with fake Indians and their ART(aboriginal response team) partners. Thisfollowed a much better Walk to stop thequarry which was a 5 day walk from QueensPark to Melancthon. I joined them when theyreached Kanekota and met many real peoplewith good minds.

When the farmers are trusting the councilorsto enact with the real Indians they also are onthe wrong page. I consider myself as a friendto many of the farmers up here and have sangto many of them over the ten years I havebeen waiting for jurisdiction. I leave the linkto my song we are still here especially forNanci Malek the councilor from Melancthonwhom doesnt like my voice http://www.myspace.com/thahoketoteh/music/songs/we-are-still-here-18280097

Energy Efcient Light Bulbs Unscrewed:A Triple Threat to Your Health and Environ-ment (Part 1)

If theres one thing that gets under myskin, its the one sided truth about compactuorescent light bulbs.And if youre fed up with skyrocketing

energy bills or the damage inicted on ourenvironment, Im sure youve seen plenty ofhype for these light bulbs.These energy efcient light bulbs are

supposed to drastically reduce your powerbills and green house gas emissions that arelinked with global warming.But the simple fact isTheres a dark shadow cast by compact u-

orescent light bulbs on your health and theenvironment that you should know about!Before I tell you all about it lets quickly

go over the benets of CFLs that wevebeen force fed by the media, industry, andgovernments.By now you and I have been led to believe

compact uorescent light (CFL) bulbs aregreat! After all, they use 75% less electric-ity. Theyre four times more efcient thanincandescent light bulbs, meaning a 13 WattCFL would give off as much light as a 60Watt incandescent. Prices have dropped somuch over the last few years that CFL bulbsare a bargain compared to the cost of incan-descent bulbs. Heck they even last up to tentimes longer than incandescent bulbs.This is great for the environment because

it reduces greenhouse gas emissions andother pollutants created by fossil-fuel powerplants. As an added bonus you save moneyby having to purchase less CFL bulbs com-pared to incandescent bulbs. Plus, yourelectric bill is reduced too!

Governments are mandating CFL use andbanning incandescent light bulbs. Media,industry, and governments have screwedthe benets of CFL bulbs into the deepestsockets of our mind.

In a nutshell, we have been led to believeCFL bulbs are good for the environment, theenergy crisis, our bank account, and globalwarming, right?I thought so until I heard this

Investigation Announced into PotentialDangers of Compact Florescent LightsAlways believing CFLs were a good thing,

I was surprised to hear my local radio sta-tion, AM800 CKLW in Windsor Ontario,announce Health Canada was measuringexposure levels of CFL bulbs potentiallyharmful electromagnetic-eld and ultravio-let radiation levels.

I decided to investigate energy-savingcompact uorescent light bulbs to uncoverthe truth.

My Research Into Energy Efcient LightBulbs Was Shocking

In the end I discovered theres a dark sideto compact uorescent light bulbs.

You will soon see three areas of concern toyour health and the environment. The ques-

tion is have they been downplayed. Theyinclude toxic mercury, ultraviolet radiation,and electromagnetic elds. These are what Icall CFLs Triple Threat.

As you continue reading, Ill explain what

I found about each threat in more detail. Butbefore doing so you should know Lots of people are reporting serious health

problems they are convinced come fromcompact uorescent light bulbs

Some symptoms they complain about in-cludeMild to severe Headaches (Migraines)

Skin Irritation, redness, burning sensa-tions, and or itchinessDizziness and NauseaTinnitus (ringing in the ears) and EarachesNumbness and Tingling sensationsTired, Weak and FatiguedDifculty Sleeping / RestlessnessChest Pains / Heart ProblemsPoor Memory and ConcentrationIrritabilityFeelings of Stress and AnxietyDepression and Mood SwingsDifculty breathingMuscle and joint painPain and pressure in the eyesThe big question: Are Compact Fluores-

cent Light Bulbs really responsible for caus-ing these health problems?I suspect the CFL Triple Threats are a ma-

jor part of whats behind it all. So in the nextseveral blog posts Ill examine the details oftoxic mercury, U.V. radiation, and electro-magnetic elds and how this ties into energyefcient light bulbs, the environment andthe potential danger to your health.

In the mean time heres proof that compactuorescent light bulbs can be dangerous toyour health. Go ahead and watch this videoand youll be shocked!

HIROKO ABUCHI akeo Hayashida signed on with a citi-

zens group to test or radiation near his sonsbaseball eld in okyo aer government o-cials told him they had no plans to check orallout rom the devastated Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear plant. Like Japans central gov-ernment, local ocials said there was noth-ing to ear in the capital, 160 miles rom thedisaster zone.oshiyuki Hattori, who runs a sewage plant

in okyo issurrounded by sacks o radioac-tive sludge.Kazuhiro Yokozeki or Te New York imesTen came the test result: the level o ra-

dioactive cesium in a patch o dirt just yardsrom where his 11-year-old son, Koshiro,played baseball was equal to those in somecontaminated areas around Chernobyl.Te patch o ground was one o more than

20 spots in and around the nations capitalthat the citizens group, and the respected nu-clear research center they worked with, oundwere contaminated with potentially harmullevels o radioactive cesium.It has been clear since the early days o the

nuclear accident, the worlds second worst a-ter Chernobyl, that that the vagaries o windand rain had scattered worrisome amountso radioactive materials in unexpected pat-terns ar outside the evacuation zone 12miles around the stricken plant. But reportsthat substantial amounts o cesium had accu-mulated as ar away as okyo have raised newconcerns about how ar the contaminationhad spread, possibly settling in areas wherethe government has not even consideredlooking.Te governments ailure to act quickly, a

growing chorus o scientists say, may be ex-posing many more people than originallybelieved to potentially harmul radiation. Itis also part o a pattern: Japans leaders havecontinually insisted that the allout rom Fu-kushima will not spread ar, or pose a healththreat to residents, or contaminate the ood

chain. And ocials have repeatedly beenproved wrong by independent experts andcitizens groups that conduct testing on theirown.Radioactive substances are entering peo-

ples bodies rom the air, rom the ood. Itseverywhere, said Kiyoshi oda, a radiation

expert at Nagasaki Universitys aculty o en-vironmental studies and a medical doctor.But the government doesnt even try to in-orm the public how much radiation theyreexposed to.Te reports o hot spots do not indicate how

widespread contamination is in the capital;more sampling would be needed to deter-mine that. But they raise the prospect thatpeople living near concentrated amounts ocesium are being exposed to levels o radia-tion above accepted international standardsmeant to protect people rom cancer andother illnesses.Japanese nuclear experts and activists have

begun agitating or more comprehensive test-ing in okyo and elsewhere, and a cleanup inecessary. Robert Alvarez, a nuclear expertand a ormer special assistant to the UnitedStates secretary o energy, echoed those calls,saying the citizens groups measurementsraise major and unprecedented concernsabout the aermath o the Fukushima nucle-ar disaster.Te government has not ignored citizens

pleas entirely; it recently completed aerial

testing in eastern Japan, including okyo. Butseveral experts and activists say the tests areunlikely to be sensitive enough to be useul innding micro hot spots such as those oundby the citizens group.Kaoru Noguchi, head o okyos health and

saety section, however, argues that the test-ing already done is sucient. Because okyois so developed, she says, radioactive materialwas much more likely to have allen on con-crete, then washed away. She also said expo-sure was likely to be limited.Nobody stands in one spot all day, she

said. And nobody eats dirt.okyo residents knew soon aer the March

11 accident, when a tsunami knocked outthe crucial cooling systems at the Fukushimaplant, that they were being exposed to radio-active materials. Researchers detected a spikein radiation levels on March 15. Ten as rain

drizzled down on the evening o March 21,radioactive material again ell on the city.In the ollowing week, however, radioactiv-

ity in the air and water dropped rapidly. Mostin the city put aside their jitters, some openlyscornul o those mostly oreigners whohad ed okyo in the early days o the disas-

ter.But not everyone was convinced. Some o-

kyo residents bought dosimeters. Te okyocitizens group, the Radiation Deense Proj-ect, which grew out o a Facebook discussionpage, decided to be more proactive. In con-sultation with the Yokohama-based IsotopeResearch Institute, members collected soilsamples rom near their own homes and sub-mitted them or testing.Some o the results were shocking: the

sample that Mr. Hayashida collected un-der shrubs near his neighborhood baseballeld in the Edogawa ward measured nearly138,000 becquerels per square meter o ra-dioactive cesium 137, which can damage cellsand lead to an increased risk o cancer.O the 132 areas tested, 22 were above

37,000 becquerels per square meter, the levelat which zones were considered contaminat-ed at Chernobyl.Edwin Lyman, a physicist at the Union o

Concerned Scientists in Washington, saidmost residents near Chernobyl were un-doubtedly much worse of, surrounded bywidespread contamination rather than iso-

lated hot spots. But he said the 37,000 gureremained a good reerence point or man-datory cleanup because regular exposure tosuch contamination could result in a dosageo more than one millisievert per year, themaximum recommended or the public bythe International Commission on Radiologi-cal Protection.Te most contaminated spot in the Radia-

tion Deense survey, near a church, was wellabove the level o the 1.5 million becquerelsper square meter that required mandatory re-settlement at Chernobyl. Te level is so muchhigher than other results in the study that itraises the possibility o testing error, but mi-cro hot spots are not unheard o aer nucleardisasters.Japans relatively tame mainstream media,

which is more likely to report on governmentpronouncements than grass-roots move-

ments, mainly ignored the citizens groupsndings.Everybody just wants to believe that this is

Fukushimas problem, said Kota Kinoshita,one o the groups leaders and a ormer televi-sion journalist. But i the government is notserious about nding out, how can we trust

them?Hideo Yamazaki, an expert in environmen-

tal analysis at Kinki University in western Ja-pan, did his own survey o the city and saidhe, too, discovered high levels in the areawhere the baseball eld is located.Tese results are highly localized, so there

is no cause or panic, he said. Still, there aresteps the government could be taking, likedecontaminating the highest spots.Since then, there have been other sugges-

tions that hot spots were more widespreadthan originally imagined.Last month, a local government in a okyo

ward ound a pile o composted leaves at aschool that measured 849 becquerels per ki-logram o cesium 137, over two times Japanslegally permissible level or compost.And on Wednesday, civilians who tested the

roo o an apartment building in the nearbycity o Yokohama arther rom Fukushimathan okyo ound high quantities o ra-dioactive strontium. (Tere was also one alsealarm this week when sky-high readings werereported in the Setagaya ward in okyo; thegovernment later said they were probably

caused by bottles o radium, once widely usedto make paint.)Te governments own aerial testing showed

that although almost all o okyo had rela-tively little contamination, two areas showedelevated readings. One was in a mountainousarea at the western edge o the okyo metro-politan region, and the other was over threewards o the city including the one wherethe baseball eld is situated.Te metropolitan government said it had

started preparations to begin monitor-ing ood products rom the nearby moun-tains, but acknowledged that ood had beenshipped rom that area or months.Mr. Hayashida, who discovered the high

level at the baseball eld, said that he was notwaiting any longer or government assuranc-es. He moved his amily to Okayama, about370 miles to the southwest.

Perhaps we could have stayedin Tokyo with no problems,he said. But I choose a futurewith no radiation fears.

Aspartame, the articial sweetener

found in many diet sodas and used as analternative sweetener, has been foundrecently to have detrimental speci-cally, cancerous effects.A study performed by researcher Vic-

toria Innes-Brown, after mounting con-cerns with how much diet coke her fam-ily members seemed to consume daily,showed that of 48 rats experimentedon up to 67 percent of all females de-veloped tumors roughly the size of golfballs or larger. The male populationdidnt do too well either: 21 percent ofthe males developed similar cancerousgrowths.For the course of her two-and-a-half-

year study, Innes-Brown used a dose ofNutraSweet (found on shelves in foodstores across the nation) comparableto that of 14 cans of diet soda for her24 female test subjects and 13 cans for

her other 24 male subjects; both theamount approved by the FDA (a 50mg

per kilogram ratio) as a reasonabledose, and the amount consumed bysome likely uninformed individuals.Though it may seem as news to some

readers, aspartame has been a knowncarcinogen for quite some time.Artifcial sweetener aspartame

(NutraSweet) still included in count-less products despite tumor linkAspartame researcher Dr. Soffritti

did a similar pair of studies to Innes-Browns. The rst study found thatconsumption of the equivalent of 4 to5 bottles of diet soda per day yield-ed high rates of cancerous growthsamong many of his subjects; the high-

est dose producing 25 percent of fe-males with cancerous cell growth,compared to 8.7 percent of the controlgroup females. With this study, Sof-fritti concluded that aspartame at a

ratio as low as 400 parts per million(ppm) was considered carcinogenic.

Initially these ndings caused quitethe controversy and sparked mass de-nial and nay saying worldwide. Now,after over 900 published studies onthe health hazards of the sweetenerthe nay saying has been curbed sub-stantially.Such studies have indicated that as-

partame is nothing more than a bondof two amino acids found in our ownamino acid prole, with a dispropor-tionately large quantity of each bond-ed together with a known poison. Me-tabolized in the body, aspartame canyield other more dangerous chemicalssuch as Methanol and Formaldehyde.

27 Years: No Deaths from Vitamins,3 Million From Prescription Drugs

Anthony Gucciardi / Activist PostOver the past 27 years the complete

timeframe that the data has been available there have been 0 deaths as a result ofvitamins and over 3 million deaths relatedto prescription drug use. In fact, going back54 years there have only been 11 claims ofvitamin-related death, all of which provid-ed no substantial evidence to link vitaminsto the cause of death. The news comes af-ter a recent statistically analysis found thatpharmaceutical drug deaths now outnum-ber trafc fatalities in the US.In 2009, drugs exceeded the amount

of trafc-related deaths, killing at least37,485 people nationwide.The ndings go against the claims of

mainstream medical experts and main-stream media outlets who often push theidea that multivitamins are detrimental toyour health, and that prescription drugs arethe only science-backed option to improv-ing your health. While essential nutrientslike vitamin D are continually being shownto slash your risk of disease such as dia-

betes and cancer, prescription pharmaceu-ticals are continually being linked to suchconditions. In fact, the top-selling thera-peutic class pharmaceutical drug has beentied to the development of diabetes andeven suicide, and whistleblowers are justnow starting to speak out despite studies as

far back as the 80s highlighting the risks.Mainstream medical health ofcials were

recently forced to speak out over the dan-ger of antipsychotic drugs, which millionsof children have been prescribed since2009. U.S. pediatric health advisers blewthe whistle over the fact that these phar-maceuticals can lead to diabetes andeven suicide, the very thing they aim to

prevent. What is even more troubling isthat half of all Americans will be diag-nosed with a mental condition duringtheir lifetime thanks to lack of diagnosisguidelines currently set by the medicalestablishment, of which many cases willlead to the prescription of antipsychot-ics and other similar medications.Covering up the side effects In order

to protect sales, the link between suicideand antipsychotic drugs was completelycovered up by Eli Lilly & Co, the mak-ers of Prozac. Despite research stretch-ing as far back as the 1980s nding thatProzac actually leads to suicide, thecompany managed to hide the evidence

until a Harvard psychiatrist leaked theinformation into the press. The psy-chiatrist, Martin Teicher, stated that theAmerican people were being treatedlike guinea pigs in a massive pharma-ceutical experiment.Greedy and oftentimes prescription-hap-

py doctors are handing out antipsychoticmedication like candy to adults and youngchildren alike. In 2008, antipsychotics

became the top-selling therapeutic classprescription drug in the United States andgrossing over $14 billion in sales.

Antipsychotic drugs are not the only dan-gerous pharmaceuticals. The average drug

label contains 70 side effects, though manypopular pharmaceuticals have been foundto contain 100 to 125. Some drugs, pre-scribed by doctors to supposedly improveyour health, come with over 525 negativereactions.

Ritalin, for example, has beenlinked to conditions including:Increased blood pressureIncreased heart rateIncreased body temperatureIncreased alertnessSuppressed appetitePerhaps the hundreds of nega-

tive side effects is part of the rea-son why the FDA announced lastyear that it is pulling more than500 cold and allergy off the mar-ket due to health concerns. Pre-scription drugs kill more peoplethan trafc accidents, and comewith up to 525 negative side ef-fects. Avoiding these drugs andutilizing high quality organic al-ternatives like whole food-based

multivitamins and green super-foods will lead to a total healthtransformation without harshside effects and an exponentiallyincreased death risk.
