Monsanto is a Biotechnology Multinational run by Chief executive Robert Shapiro. They spread everywhere they are tolerated in the world seeking to patent everything you eat. They own 90% of all GMO (genetically modified organism) crops in the world, 70% of these being Round Up resistant. The
rest creates an insecticide called BT. They bought 50 major seeds companies (tomato, potato, corn, soy , cotton…) from 1995 to 2005. This post might somehow be long, but you absolutely need to know about this corrupt company and the people behind all this. Everyone on the planet is concerned. Monsanto has been selling PCB’s and claiming their benefits for the environment knowing it was completely false. PCB have been banned in the beginning of the 90’s. PCB’s are present in the air, ground and water. They are for a big part in the well known disease: cancer.

Let’s start by analyzing their best product on the market.

Round Up Ready (RUR); this herbicide has been the number one seller for the past thirty years. (marketed in 74) It will kill every living plant but the Monsanto’s genetically modified. A very good example is their RUR Soy plant. Monsanto’s scientist identified a gene resistant to Round Up. Fixed on microscopic gold particles, these genes are bombarded with a canon gene into the soy cell. Combined with the RNA, it triggers the make of a protein that will create a Round Up resistant Soy plant. You can read an article from Dr Robert Belle on the Round Up technology. He explains their technology affects a key mechanism that controls cell division making them more keen to instability. A cell is not cancerous in the beginning, the principal modification toward cancer is when a cell becomes genetically unstable, this is exactly what Round Up does. In an experiment, Elena Alvarez Buylla demonstrates that flowers have a completely different phenotypes (expression of a gene) depending on the localization of the trans gene. Some specimen look like normal flowers, others present monstrous looks. Once a trans gene is released, with the wind carrying the pollen around, it can go infect any natural crop integrating those new modified genes into the environment.

The FDA ( Food and Drug administration) is in charge of the health regulations in the USA. In 1979, they accepted a law classifying GMO food and natural food in the same category. James Maryanski (1985-2006) the Biotechnology responsible of the FDA at the time admits in a video that the White House made some pressure in order to have no specific rules applied to GMO’s. This decision was political and not scientific. Michael Taylor became the Chief of regulations in the FDA (1991) when the GMO regulations were being written. They created the “Principal of substance equivalence” calling GMO’s “grass” in other words safe. Before giving the tittle of “grass” there are normally scientific studies made on the matter and it has to be approved largely by the scientific community, which was not the case. I forgot to mention Michael Taylor used to be a lawyer and worked on several cases for Monsanto. No conflict of interests here. We have never seen such a powerful company able to influence the government in charge of regulations, which were written at Monsanto’s desires. In USA, consumers cannot choose between natural and GMO food since labeling the difference is not permitted.

Monsanto wanted to introduce their bioproducts in Europe. Modified potatoes were tested on rats at the famous nutrition institute Rolet in Scotland. With their approval, the doors would be opened for Monsanto to invade the continent. Arpad Pusztai was in charge of the project and made an interview on the BBC. He expressed his fears (cell proliferation in the stomach and strong reaction from the immune system) towards the technology used to produce the potatoes , he added the British should not be treated as guinea pigs. He was fired the next day. Apparently it was a state matter, since USA technology was threatened. In 1985, Richard Burroughs was in charge of the group testing Posilac the bovine hormone. He expressed his concerns on the effect of the hormone over the reproduction, he also noted the cows were suffering from infections. He was discharged of his function, he intended a trial, but Monsanto’s lawyer threatened him they would bring him in trial if he would use secrets of the company for his case. Posilac was banned in Europe and Canada. Canada needed a scandal at “Sante Canada” because they normally follow the FDA’s regulation, we can thanks Shiv Chopra who lost his job for showing so much integrity. Guess what…Posilac was introduced in the USA in 1994, approved by the FDA when Michael Taylor was in charge. Statistically, we observe a dramatic increase of breast, colon, prostate cancers, this is only the beginning. The Cow hormone drug represents the first application of biotechnology at the animal production.

In India, Monsanto bought the number one cotton seed company in the country: Mahyco. They sell Cotton BT seeds and it becomes harder every year to find traditional ones. The plant has a bad interaction with the BT gene which creates a weakness inside. As a result they still need to treat the plant with herbicides. Monsanto controls almost all the cotton Market in India, where they sell their seeds 4 times the normal price. Vandana Shiva calls them the “seeds of suicide”. By reading her work I learned Monsanto is working to patent tomatoes, rice, cauliflower…. If they control the seed, they control the food: what a genious way to control the world.

In Mexico, corn is considered to be the most pure and preserved in the world. Ignacio Chapela wrote an article on their contaminated corn from GMO’s. Ignacio was discredited in the scientific world by Monsanto.
If you want to read how they did it, here is the link. Monsanto is having a fierce fight in Mexico to implant it’s industrialized corn. They sell it twice cheaper then the natural corn, and are polluting the gene basin of Mexican corn with a precise goal.

In USA, farmers sign a contract when they start using Monsanto’s seeds. Part of the contract is they are not allowed to keep any seeds for the next year. Monsanto runs a gene police causing terror among farmers in this world dominated by GMO’s.

There is something you need to understand. Under American laws, it’s very rare that the chiefs executives of a company are considered responsible. Your chances drop even more when the government is partners with them. On the other hand, it’s possible to attack them on the civil side for money. The truth, the money these companies pay (Monsanto) to the affected people is nothing compared to their gains made by lying to you all that time. The lesson to understand: It’s profitable to keep secrets. Do you wonder what Monsanto is hiding from you now? You cannot trust Monsanto.

On Monsanto’s website, you can read the following statement: ” Practical experience clearly demonstrate that coexistence of biotech, conventional and organic systems is not only possible, but is peacefully occurring around the world. I have shown you multiple examples where their saying is wrong. Educate yourself on Monsanto because it’s the source of life that is concerned here.

A new gadget will soon stop police patrol chases, a real danger. Installed before the grid of the cops car, the StarChase shoots a viscous and sticky plastic ball on the chased car. Within the projectile: A GPS. The police can then stop the pursuit, following the bad boy on their computer.

Did you enjoy reading this? Have a good week everyone.

I received this morning on my Facebook wall the following message:
“You know smoking bud? Well I found some super potent legal bud at http://www.dealsjid.com !!
www.dealsjid.com
http://www.dealsjid.com”

The funny thing is the message was sent by my brothers user at 7h28, while he was still sleeping. Digging through Internet, I could not find any entries about this mysterious message. It must be pretty new in the Facebook world. This type of new virus should spread very fast on Facebook unless they decide to add more security to their API. My brother got this from someone in Europe and when he opened the link, it sent the wall post you saw to all it’s contacts, I wonder if anyone has more information about it.
Did you ever hear of any Facebook virus?

I would also add: If you think your facebook account sent the same kind of messages, you should change your password, and run a spy ware scan.

- When NASA first sent its astronauts into space, they noticed the pens were not working in the state of weightlessness. Ten years and 12 million dollars later, the Americans have created a pen that can write in any position, with or without gravity, at temperatures ranging from -80 to 300 degrees. The Russians themselves have always used pencils in space…

- According to some British researchers, people living in major cities have increased their walking speed by 10% from 1994 to 2007. The acceleration of vocal exchanges were among the causes increasing our pace.

- In Korea, 250 000 teens would be computer dependent. To help against the problem, the state has set up 140 detoxification centers . They offer therapy group, obstacle races, trapeze, pottery and horse riding. These activities will hopefully help the adolescents refocus their emotions on the real World.

That’s it for this week. I will find some more peculiar stories for the next week review.

Hidden in the mountains, a new megalopolis is growing at a blazing speed. The day Chongqing awakes, nothing will stop China.

About the size of Austria, it’s mostly country for now however China plans to have 70% of the land industrialized by 2020. It will by then be the most populated city in the world. China is not running for any world record, they want to create an economical monster. Growing at an incredible rate, 300 000 people per year, they will attract the peasants from the country. This massive number of cheap labor workers is better then a goldmine for most of the industries.

In America, we seek instant gratification in our every days life. Asians tend to not only develop long-term plans, decade-long plans, they also actually work their plans. We all heard in the news recently of the Chinese Spy waiting 2 decades before engaging in his role. Chinese people are taught that the glories of China’s imperial past could be revived if everyone simply follows the communist Party. China is not yet superior to the United States in terms of military force, once they achieve that goal, they will probably use it.

China has become an industrial juggernaut, the factory for the rest of the world. You all witnessed the rumble cause with the Olympic Torch Relay. We all know what China deems in terms of human rights issues. How will our lives be affected once China becomes the strongest country in the world?
