This 1997 documentary from CNBC exposed the link between the polio vaccine and rare cancers like mesothelioma and childhood cancers. Dr. Maurice Hilleman, a vaccine scientist who worked for Merck, admitted on video that he suspected that the polio vaccine would cause cancer. He suspected this because of the known presence of monkey viruses in the vaccine, specifically a virus called SV40. This virus has been found in the tumors of many cancer patients who had the polio vaccine, and also the children of those who received it.
(http://www.thedailysheeple.com)It's been nearly two months since Malaysia Airlines flight 370 mysteriously disappeared, and the questionable search and evidence contradicting the official story, as Natural News has reported, has led many to speculate as to what really happened to the plane. Theories include:
It landed in Pakistan.
It landed on the U.S. military base on Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean.
It was hijacked by Iran or Islamic extremists.
It was hijacked by Israel, and it (or an identical plane) is now at the Tel Aviv airport to be used in a false-flag attack.
It was shot down by either the U.S. or China.
"All along," Dr. Erowyn wrote at FellowshipoftheMinds.com, "I've maintained that, given U.S. satellites and the National Security Agency's (NSA) massive surveillance capabilities, the Obama administration knows precisely what had happened to MH 370, but is not telling. Notice that at no time has the White House offered its radar and satellite tracking information to help in the search.
"Now we have evidence that the NSA indeed knows but isn't telling."
Dr. Orly Taitz recently received a response to a Freedom of Information Act request she made regarding "any and all documents in possession of NSA relating to missing flight Malaysian flight MH 370, which disappeared on March 8 2014 and three American citizens on board."
The FOIA response letter stated:
We have determined that the fact of the existence or non-existence of the materials you request is a currently and properly classified matter in accordance with Executive Order 13526, as set forth in Subparagraph (c) of Section 1.4. Thus, your request is denied pursuant to the first exemption of the FOIA which provides that the FOIA does not apply to matters that are specifically authorized under criteria established by an Executive Order to be kept secret in the interest of national defense or foreign relations and are, in fact properly classified pursuant to such Executive Order.
When the government doesn't have requested records, they usually say so. The fact that the government is refusing to say whether or not they exist, but stating they are nonetheless classified, shows that they do exist and are being hidden.
Dr. Eowyn wrote further:
"Executive Order 13526 -- Classified National Security Information was issued by Barack Obama on December 29, 2009. Here's EO 13536's Section 1.4, Sub-paragraph c:
"Sec. 1.4. Classification Categories. Information shall not be considered for classification unless its unauthorized disclosure could reasonably be expected to cause identifiable or describable damage to the national security in accordance with section 1.2 of this order, and it pertains to one or more of the following:

(http://www.thecollegefix.com/post/17212/)Duke University recently launched a new political-correctness campaign to discourage the use of "offensive" words and phrases related to gender and sexuality.
The campaign consists of black-and-white images with students standing behind phrases "we don't say" such as "Man Up," "Don't Be a P****" and "No Homo." Underneath each phrase is an explanation for why it shouldn't be said:
Man Up: "Because strength is not define by sex or gender."
Don't Be a P****: "Because I don't believe that any gender is inferior."
B****: "Because it insists that femininity is inherently negative."
No Homo: "Because it means that showing any affection towards someone of the same sex is inherently bad."
That's So Gay: "Because the words gay & stupid are not interchangeable."
This progressivist campaign is an attempt to censor free speech and control what is and is not acceptable to say and, therefore, think. Saying that "man up" is offensive because it refers to traditional masculine characteristics is akin to saying that masculinity itself is offensive. And a world without gender differences, without masculinity or femininity, "would be a pretty dismal place," said Dr. Mark Hendrickson, economics professor at Grove City College.
Dr. Hendrickson also noted that the campaign's proponents would likely not give the same consideration to conservative campus speakers. Would "anybody advocating the banning of a certain word or phrase... be willing to publicly say, 'I promise in return to never hinder a speech by a political figure with whose political philosophy I disagree?'" Hendrickson said.
People use different words in different ways, sometimes not meaning to be offensive at all, and is up to the audience to decide for themselves whether or not to be offended. Another censorship campaign banned the use of "illegal immigrant" on college campuses, as being somehow "racist," despite the fact that an "immigrant" is someone who has immigrated, and an "illegal immigrant" is simply someone who did not go through the proper legal channels to do so.
Banning, redefining and discouraging the use of certain words is just another way to control language, public opinion and, subsequently, public policy.
"As a thinking individual, I don't and didn't need some children from Duke University admonishing me for 'thinking any gender is inferior,'" said one commenter on the campaign's Facebook page. "Do you see what they did there? 'Any gender.' Not 'either gender.' It's all about redefining terms, redefining life."
Famed liberal comedian Bill Maher lambasted "political corectness Nazis" on his HBO program Friday night.
"When Gwyneth Paltrow said her divorce was a 'conscience uncoupling,' even I wanted to jump in the truck, crank up the Lynyrd Skynyrd and shoot up a farmer's market," Maher joked.
"I also for example think it's ridiculous that Facebook has now decided that we have to choose, in our profile, from 56 different genders, including transgender, cisgender and, of course, brucegender," the comedian added.
"You know, I once almost ate at Chick-fil-A. Just because so many people were telling me I shouldn't eat at Chick-fil-A," he said. "But then I remembered -- it's Chick-fil-A."
Maher ended his monologue complaining about atheists who sue to have public displays of Christianity removed.
"Even atheists make me roll my eyes sometimes," Maher said. "Like when they sued to have a cross taken down from a building. Oh for f***s sake, we are atheists not vampires. If you can't handle seeing a cross now and then, you picked the wrong country."

(http://www.lewrockwell.com)Cliven Bundy, the aging, white rancher who made headlines after the U.S. federal government tried to seize his property and was defended by militia groups and citizens from around the country, is not an actor. He is not a politician or a TV show host. He is not perfect, and he doesn't pretend to be.
The mainstream media have dutifully done their part in bending to the will of the Obama administration and branding the rancher, whose family has worked the land since before the creation of the Bureau of Land Management, as a "free-loader" who evades owed taxes and grazing fees. And like others with whom they disagree, progressivists have followed him incessantly, not to cover his story of standing up to a tyrannical, overreaching government, but to catch him doing something that will sway public opinion against him.
Adam Nagourney, a reporter for the liberal-leaning New York Times, got his chance to discredit Bundy at a news conference on April 26.
"I want to tell you one more thing I know about the Negro," Bundy said to a crowd. He talked to reporters about having driven past a public housing project in North Las Vegas in the past, "and in front of that government house the door was usually open and the older people and the kids -- and there is always at least a half a dozen people sitting on the porch -- they didn't have nothing to do. They didn't have nothing for their kids to do. They didn't have nothing for their young girls to do.
"And because they were basically on government subsidy, so now what do they do?" he asked. "They abort their young children, they put their young men in jail, because they never learned how to pick cotton. And I've often wondered, are they better off as slaves, picking cotton and having a family life and doing things, or are they better off under government subsidy? They didn't get no more freedom. They got less freedom."
Taken out of context, Bundy's words certainly seem racist, and they may be (albeit in a lack-of-understanding way rather than hatefulness), but what he is really saying here is not that African Americans were better off as slaves but that the welfare state has caused more destruction to the black family than slavery, racism and Jim Crow laws combined. The word negro, although viewed as racist today, has historically been used to refer to dark-skinned persons without being pejorative, as used by Bundy, who, we must remember, as 67-year-old white male in rural Arizona, likely grew up in a culture where the use of that term was perfectly acceptable.
As for singling out welfare as a cause of poverty and destruction of the African American family, consider this statement: "The welfare state has done to black Americans what slavery could not have done, the harshest Jim Crow laws and racism could not have done, namely break up the black family."
I'll agree, that is a nicer-sounding sentence, but it basically states the exact same thing in different terminology. Is it racist too? MSNBC's Ed Schultz apparently thinks so, despite the fact that this was said by Dr. Walter Williams, an African American.
All of this illustrates a controlled culture wherein anything "anti-government" can supposedly be boiled down to some underlying racism. Racism is wrong, so if someone is racist, they must be wrong; therefore, the liberal media paint their opponents as intrinsically racist.
Progressivists consider racism, and some prejudices, to be even worse than killing brown foreigners. In Obama's first term, he signed into law a "hate crimes" measure (Thoughtcrime Enforcement Act) that expanded the definition of violent federal hate crimes to include those committed on basis of sexual orientation. Sure, people shouldn't be assaulted for being gay, but in order to get this measure passed, the Obama administration attached a $680 billion military appropriation measure to it including funding for wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. That way, progressivist/liberal constituents could feel good about their "representative" voting to protect minorities, and others could feel good about "protecting America" while their "representatives" profit from the military-industrial complex actively seeking to commit mass murder.
(http://www.eurekalert.org)A new study published in Diabetologia shows the association between increased coffee consumption and a reduced risk of type 2 diabetes. The research was led by Drs. Frank Hu and Shilpa Bhupathiraju from Harvard University's School of Public Health.
The study included 123,733 men and women, and the researchers found that participants who increased their coffee consumption by more than 1 cup/day over a 4-year period had a 11% lower risk of type 2 diabetes in the subsequent 4 years compared to those who made no changes in consumption. In contrast, participants who decreased their coffee intake by 1 cup/day or more had a 17% higher risk for type 2 diabetes.
EurekAlert reported: "Those with highest coffee consumption and who maintained that consumption--referred to as 'high-stable consumers' since they consumed 3 cups or more per day--had the lowest risk of type 2 diabetes, 37% lower than the 'low-stable consumers' who consumed 1 cup or less per day."
Changes in tea and decaffeinated coffee consumption were not associated with changes in diabetes risk.
This study shows that increasing or maintaining high coffee consumption can lower your risk of diabetes in a relatively short time!
(http://foodrevolution.org)The 2014 Food Revolution Summit, hosted online by John and Ocean Robbins, is scheduled to take place April 26 through May 4 and will be broadcast worldwide. The Health Ranger, Mike Adams, is inviting Natural News readers and all those interested in obtaining true health knowledge to register for the FREE Food Revolution Summit now.
At this Summit, you will learn important information such as:
How to be virtually impervious to heart attacks without drugs, surgery or excessive exercise;
What foods can prevent (and even help fight) cancer;
How to avoid GMOs in grocery stores;
The truth about grass-fed beef and "humanely raised" animal products;
The effects that GMOs are having on life on Earth; and
Much more!
Those who choose to join the Summit will also recieve a Real Food Action Guide in addition to having access, over the phone or internet, to three highly focused half-hour interviews conducted by John Robbins every day for a week. These interviews will include such visionary speakers as Jane Goodall, PhD; Vani Hari, the "Food Babe"; Woody Harrelson; Mark Hyman, MD; and many others.
"It's time to rise up and demand change!" Robbins wrote about the nutritional and health problems in America. "This is why we've created this virtual summit. We want to bring the most up-to-date research and information to you about food, nutrition, disease prevention and environmental stewardship. So you can get involved and do your part to be the change."
(http://www.reuters.com)With growing consumer awareness about the multiple issues surrounding genetically modified organisms (GMOs), more citizens are demanding that GMO foods be properly labeled, and a growing number of states have passed -- or tried to pass but were defeated by Big Food corporations -- legislation that would require such labeling. The majority of Americans want GMO foods to be labeled, but the federal government refuses to take action, which leaves it up to the states to protect their citizens.
A number of politicians and companies, however, oppose the idea of Americans knowing what's in the food they're eating. Representative Mike Pompeo (R-KS) recently drafted the "Safe and Accurate Food Labeling Act," a bill that is aimed at overriding state legislation requiring GMO food labeling.
"The bill specifically prohibits any mandatory labeling of foods developed using bioengineering," Reuters reported.
Numerous scientific studies have shown links between GMOs and adverse effects on human and animal health. They have also cause environmental damage, the rise of herbicide-resistant superweeds and increases in the amount of toxic glyphosate doused on fields and polluting water through runoff.
GMO labeling advocates say this bill is a sign that food and biotech companies fear growing consumer awareness and distrust of GMOs. "They know that the food movement's power is growing and that labeling is not a matter of if but when," said Colin O'Neil, director of government affairs for the Center for Food Safety. "They are afraid of state action and now they're trying to steal away consumer choice in Congress."
(http://www.reuters.com)A study conducted by a team of researchers from the University of Manitoba's dental school in Winnipeg and published in Pediatricshas found that children whose mothers had low vitamin D levels during pregnancy have a higher risk of tooth decay.
As shown in previous studies, vitamin D deficiencies in pregnant mothers can lead to defects in their young children's tooth enamel, which can increase the risk of tooth decay. To determine whether low vitamin D levels during pregnancy also correlates with high cavity rates in toddlers, Dr. Robert J. Schroth and his team of researchers "measured vitamin D levels in the second or early third trimester in 207 pregnant women and then examined the teeth of 135 of their children when they were an average of 16 months old," Reuters Health reported.
The researchers found that there was a direct relationship between low vitamin D levels in pregnant mothers and increased cavity occurrence in their toddlers. A third of the women in the study were vitamin D deficient; 22% of infants developed enamel hyploplasia, and 23 to 36% had cavities, depending on how cases are assessed.
"Prevention efforts should begin during pregnancy by bolstering maternal nutrition, either through improved dietary intake or supplementation with vitamin D," the researchers said, noting that improved nutrition can reduce the risk of childhood tooth decay.
William B. Grant from the Sunlight, Nutrition and Health Research Center in San Francisco, California, told Reuters Health, "All pregnant and nursing women need to take 4000-5000 (International Units per day) vitamin D3. There are many benefits for pregnancy outcomes including reduced risk of gestational diabetes, respiratory and other infections, premature delivery, pre-eclampsia, adverse effects on the fetus such as birth defects including very possibly autism."
Besides nutritional supplements, there are other ways to maintain a healthy level of vitamin D, including soaking up the sun and eating foods like wild salmon, ahi tuna, mushrooms and eggs. One should also avoid sugar to prevent cavities. Reducing sugar and carbohydrate intake can also reduce one's need for vitamin D.
(http://www.reuters.com)A new report from the Economic Research Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture shows not only that GMOs have failed to increase yields but that, "in fact, the yields of herbicide-tolerant or insect-resistant seeds may be occasionally lower than the yields of conventional varieties."
According to the report, several researchers found that there were "no significant differences" between the net returns of GMO farmers and those of non-GMO farmers. Furthermore, the report also found that an increasing amount of herbicide is being sprayed on GMO corn. GMO corn varieties have been engineered to be resistant to glyphosate, which can thus be sprayed on crops en masse to control weeds. This has led to greater herbicide resistance in weeds, which further contributes to the expanding use of these chemicals.
(http://www.cornucopia.org)Traditional yogurt, made from organic milk and rich in calcium, protein, beneficial fats, nutrients and probiotics, is one of nature's notable tasty health foods. Conventional yogurt on the other hand, produced with CAFO (concentrated animal feeding operation) cow milk, high doses of sugar and high-fructose corn syrup, artificial colors, sweeteners and preservatives, and carrageenan, is less healthy but more widely sold by corporations like General Mills (Yoplait), Groupe Danone (Dannon), PepsiCo and Wal-Mart.
Many of these conventional yogurt brands display a "Live and Active Cultures" seal, supposedly noting the presence of healthy probiotics. However, testing by The Cornucopia Institute revealed that many organic yogurt brands, which do not carry that seal, "actually contained higher levels of probiotics than conventional yogurt with the seal."
Furthermore, many conventional yogurt brands shouldn't even be called "yogurt," according to the FDA's "standard of identity," which does not include the addition of artificial sweeteners, preservatives or nutrients other than vitamins A and D.
While the legality of these "yogurt" products is in question, a more important issue is what their health impacts may be. The Cornucopia Institute wrote that "research has linked the artificial sweetener aspartame to brain tumors and neurological disease in laboratory animals. Carrageenan, a food thickener, has been shown to promote colon tumors and cause inflammation and digestive disease in laboratory animals. Artificial colors have been linked to attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in children. These ingredients and others commonly found in yogurt have no place in a food marketed as healthy."
Consumers should beware marketing scams by the food industry claiming their products as "healthy." Instead, be sure to look for the USDA Organic seal on yogurt and other foods to help avoid unsafe chemicals and improve health.
(http://www.cchr.org)The number of suicides among U.S. military members has been rising at an alarming rate.
According to the Citizens Commission on Human Rights, "In early 2013, the official website of the United States Department of Defense announced the startling statistic that the number of military suicides in 2012 had far exceeded the total of those killed in battle - an average of nearly one a day. A month later came an even more sobering statistic from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs: veteran suicide was running at 22 a day - about 8000 a year."
The U.S. Secretary of Defense has recognized this surge in suicides as an "epidemic." Some claim that combat-related stress is the main culprit, but 85 percent of military members who commit suicide have not seen combat, and 52 percent have never been deployed.
Prescription rates for psychiatric drugs have soared as well, correlating with military suicides. These drugs often have side effects which include increased aggression and suicidal thoughts, which "are reflected in similar uptrends in the rates of military domestic violence, child abuse and sex crimes, as well as self-harm."
The new documentary The Hidden Enemy: Inside Psychiatry's Covert Agenda examines the link between psychiatric drugs and the mental and emotional health of military members, and it exposes the secret collusion between the military and psychiatrists, as they seek to force themselves, and their dangerous, for-profit medication, into all facets of American life. Watch the video above to learn more.
From YouTube description: SSRI stands for Selective Seratonin Reuptake Inhibitor, and it is a class of drugs that is often used to treat depression and anxiety. It includes Prozac, Zoloft, Celexa, Paxil and a host of other commonly prescribed antidepressants. And the perpetrators of a raft of school shootings, mass murders and other violent incidents in recent years have been taking them.
(http://intellihub.com)Arizona has been furiously trying to convert as much of its electricity to solar power, which has cut into the profits of Arizona Public Service, a major energy provider. Much of the money for this conversion process has come from a surprising source: the Chinese.
Why would the Chinese want to invest in American solar power? Perhaps Senator Harry Reid would know, considering his long history of facilitating Chinese energy deals at the expense of the American taxpayer. The latest example of this is the standoff that recently took place at the Bundy Ranch in Nevada between private citizens and heavily armed federal agents attempting to steal cattle and land to make room for a Chinese solar power plant.
And our federal government is giving these favors to a country that openly declared their intent to launch a first strike on America.
"Seen from the changes in the World situation and the United States' hegemonic strategy for creating monopolarity, war is inevitable. We cannot avoid it. The issue is that the Chinese armed forces must control the initiative in this war," said Chinese Defense Minister Chi Haotian in January 2000, as quoted by Dave Hodges for Intellihub. Initiative is a military term which means "first strike."
It is already well known how vulnerable America's power grid is; it would only take a single high-altitude EMP blast to shut off electricity to the entire country. If the Chinese build their facilities to be EMP-resistant, then an EMP attack would leave them in charge of producing America's power, essentially allowing them to control the country.
With our corrupt politicians giving land to the Chinese to develop power plants, and with our aging, defenseless electric grid, it is imperative that we monitor and regulate Chinese developments, as well as improve our own grid, in order to prepare for a coming EMP attack.
(http://naturalnewstracker.wordpress.com)Natural News has covered a lot of health and freedom information over this past winter. Frequent readers of Natural News have learned:
about heavy metal toxins in cereals and certain health shakes like protein shakes
that organic foods from China might as well be from the sewers of New York City, with all the industrial waste and chemical pollution that invades those foods and products in general
about how nearly all edible oils create disease and disorder in the body, except for coconut oil and organic olive oil
that Monsanto will do anything to have total immunity from lawsuits that arise from their pesticide food they feed the masses
that Monsanto has grown because Obama puts their leaders in charge of the FDA, USDA, CDC and more
This spring, we also covered the standoff at the Bundy Ranch in Nevada between private citizens and federal agents armed with assault rifles, sniper rifles, helicopters, attack dogs and Tasers, which they used to assault innocent bystanders. The feds even set up a "First Amendment area" -- three miles from the protest site -- to restrict citizens from exercising free speech, though it was ignored anyway. The Mainstream Media failed to cover this story, obscuring facts or ignoring it altogether. But thanks to legally armed concerned citizens, alternative media and social media, news got out about the situation, and the government ended up backing off.
Natural News has covered all this and more, serving to disseminate information about health, organic agriculture and liberty to America and the world. Thousands of articles, scientific studies and more on these topics are available to anyone seeking to educate themself on natural health and news.
Benjamin Bratton, an Associate Professor of Visual Arts at the University of California, San Diego, recently gave a TED Talk explaining how TED Talks are worthless. In his speech, Bratton covers the issues of TED Talks and how they are little more than ineffective placebos and simplified infotainment for the public that promotes exciting new ideas while stifling real progress and innovation.
(http://www.usatoday.com)The Editorial Board at USA Today recently ran an opinion piece in which they praised the vaccine industry and espoused Big Pharma propaganda and myths to convince Americans to be vaccinated.
USA Today also promotes the unscientific "herd immunity" theory. According to this theory, if enough of the population is vaccinated, then immunity is somehow achieved for everyone. The problem with this theory is that vaccines only affect those who receive them. They cause a reaction in the body which may produce antibodies that can help prevent or mitigate the disease, thus building temporary "immunity." However, those who don't receive vaccines usually develop these antibodies, and immunity, naturally and permanently. In many cases, vaccines destroy the immune system, making it easier for the body to succumb to disease and disorder. Vaccinated individuals also serve as carriers of disease, spreading it to the rest of the population and putting those who haven't developed immunity yet at risk.
"Herd immunity" has never been scientifically validated, nor has the efficacy of vaccines to prevent disease. Yet, some actually believe that unvaccinated children put vaccinated ones at risk of catching disease, and that vaccines only work when a certain amount of the population has received them.
Furthermore, vaccines have been linked to a number of health issues, including developmental problems, autism, gastrointestinal issues and brain inflammation.
USA Today claims that parents "ought to be able to opt out for strictly defined medical or religious reasons" but not for "personal opinions." They then conclude, "Everyone enjoys the life-saving benefits vaccines provide, but they'll exist only as long as everyone shares in the risks." On the contrary, vaccines only "benefit" those who receive them, and parents should have the right to decide whether to subject their children to a cocktail of chemicals, heavy metals and biological tissue, which could cause permanent, life-damaging harm. To suggest otherwise, while ignoring the hazards of vaccines and promoting their manufacturers' non-scientific theories on immunity, is misleading and immoral.
http://www.independentsentinel.comIn the end, there is only one reason why the Bundy ranch was besieged. President Obama had to have taken the lead. He knew it was going on and he sanctioned it. Beyond oil, solar, and Chinese Communists with money, lurks Obama's Agenda.
InfoWars has found a smoking gun in the case of embattled rancher Cliven Bundy. A lucrative contract - which will benefit Harry Reid and his son Rory Reid - specifically mentions the need to rid the land of Cliven Bundy. In addition, Natural News pointed out that the BLM is in the business of selling lucrative oil and gas leases. It does answer the question, Why now?
There is a much bigger picture in all of this, however, and that is the fact Mr. Obama believes the government should control the land and water in the United States. He sees the government as the protector of the nation's resources. It is his belief. He does not respect private property - it is the government's to take. That should now be obvious to everyone.
