The Myth of “Whole Grain Goodness”


     The Corporate self-enthroned Kings of Crops are jumping on the whole foods bandwagon and grinding it into the ground. By claiming the moniker “Whole Grain Goodness” for their GMO uber-processed foods (especially cereal) they are killing the ‘goodness’ factor, and infecting the entire whole food movement in the process (just like they are trying to do with all non-GMO crops).
And because the very same Corporate Giants (monsters, really—where’s a monetized David with a room full of lawyers when you need him?) essentially own the FDA (a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of Monsanto) and Congress (Wholly Owned Subsidiary of Monsanto and Koch Bothers Industries) now, this overtaking of Whole Foods and their inherent healing properties is all the more monstrous.
To advertize that their foods have “Whole Grain Goodness” is an abomination. First of all, their “Whole Grain” foods are anything but. Then add on top of that, that those foods are also Genetically Modified (adding everything from insect DNA to animal and God-knows-what-else DNA to ‘grains’), they cease being ‘grains’ (or other food ‘components’) as well.
This is scurrilous and false advertizing at its most demonic. It is taking what should be a (especially to the Native Populations of the World) sacred component of all of our lives, and twisting and perverting it (and Us in the process), into not only the already stripped commodity that ‘food’ is, but making it further into substances that will not only make its consumers sick (and thus needing all the ‘medicine’ that they will turn around and charge exorbitant amounts of money to ‘cure’ us with), but may also be in the process of killing all of us off.
I’ve included the link below for you to follow for some tips on true food to eat.


There are also other sources to look towards re: food as well, but too many to include here.

If you are still eating meat and poultry (with the various hormones and other toxins/toxic factory farming techniques), and seafood (heavy metals, and since the Japan Tsunami, plutonium and other heavy Toxins), you should also consider dropping those from your diet. Even factory-farmed fish have illnesses and parasites you don’t want to ingest (and No, the FDA is not going to do Anything about Any of This! See Wholly Owned Subsidiary of Monsanto.)
With Cancer on the rise from both environmental as well as food-based causes, it is best to clean up your food intake to stave off any illnesses you needn’t suffer from.

The Coming Iceberg

In 1912, the supposedly unsinkable ship Titannic...

Perhaps you see where this is going. We often overlook evidence that is right in front of our face, in favor for the much nicer scenario that allows us our denial to continue. We "don't see" the impending divorce, the bank account that is quickly dipping into the red, the growing credit card tallies, and many other things. You might say that it's in our nature.

And like that ship that suffered so much lose of life at the turn of the last century, the same was true for the 9/11 Event. It's also true for Global Warming/Climate Change, and was true for the coming tyrannical dictatorship of the Moneyed Giants mascarading as The Little People. It's often easier to not see the 800 ton gorilla in the room about to sit on you until it's too dark and too late.

I just watched the video "9/11: Press for the Truth" about the journey from the acceptance to horrorific disbelief to downright outrage of three women (nicknamed "The Jersey Girls") who lost their husbands in the Twin Towers that were the modern day equivalent of the Titannic. Indeed, these husbands were told to stay at their desks as the deck was shifting to 90 degrees, and they accepted the Word from Above. These women, one of whom said that she voted for George Bush and then came to belief that her elected government had lied and allowed the disaster, are now forever changed in their acceptance.

In the video (and the website/book that pointed out the actual Timeline of events of the days and years leading up to it <www.911timeline.net/ >), it is shown that in the least case scenario the Bush Administration knew the attach was coming, and in the worst case, allowed it to happen.  (Only hinted at are the larger implications that it was a created event. Good thing the Congress had the Patriot Act ready to save us!)

In the case of  the Titannic, the Owners and Engineers continued to whittle down the costs (using inferior and less materials than were originally called for, as well as cutting down the number of lifeboats deemed necessary) in order to reap more profit and insure the deadly toll. There were also reports of the iceberg field that were telegraphed to the ships wireless operator that never reached the bridge and the Captain (who was alseep when the imfamous ice hit). No one was ever held accountable either legally or economically for these gross violations that led to that severe loss of life.

In the case of the modern planetary Iceberg heading our way (or soon to be lack thereof), those responsible for this coming loss of life also continue to be held unaccoutable. We continue to build nuclear power plants under the lies of "safe energy" while the Japanese plant leaks plutonium into the Pacific.

And the Global Warming deniers point to the cooling off of the planet. 'See? It's not getting hotter, it's getting colder!' Watch out for that Iceberg. It may be one of the last ones left.

Nuclear "Option" in Meltdown Status! Scramm it!

"Nuclear Power! So cheap it won't even be measurable!" screamed the Voice back in the 1950's and 60s'. Along with the (radioactive) nugget: Safer than Coal or Gas!"

With the power plant in Japan breached, lacking electricity to get water into the containment vessels of tow (our of five) reactor cores, this stands as the largest nuclear disaster in history. Larger than both Chernobyl and Three Mile Island. Of course, this was due to the massive earthquake, but it was built on a known (and quite active) fault line, guaranteeing that sooner or later...

And this reactor is not the only reactor in the world built on a fault line. There are several others, including those in California. These are just accidents of monstrous proportion waiting to happen, also sooner rather than later.

Let's return to those thrilling days of yesteryear...

Nuclear power was sold to the American People as both safe and cheap. That spent fuel rods hav e to be kept in water that is costantly filtered and refreshed, wasn't part of the propaganda. Neither was the billions of dollars that went into developing the technology by the US Government, not the Private Industry that would profit from this "cheap" energy source.

And as to the waste byproducts... That was a whole nother prospect.

Not only are the reactor cores in full breach in Japan, but the spent fuel rods 'isolated' in on-site storage tanks are also in danger. If not constantly cooled, they would still have enough fissionable material (in the quantities stored) to start an uncontrolled chain reaction as well.

If the US Governement had spent a mere fraction on the solar and other alternative power possibilities, the cheaper alternatives to Nuclear, Coal and (especially Liquified) Natural Gas, those sources would be online and generating power in the quantities that were once touted for Nuclear. And solar panels don't go critical, either.
