The main stream medical practice has often resorted to hoaxes in order to maximize profits for big pharmaceutical companies. But no one ever thought it would get so disgusting that doctors would start removing perfectly healthy body parts through unnecessary surgical procedures to earn money that would pay their lavish loans. NaturalNews reports that doctors are capitalizing on the fear of breast cancer and often removing non-cancerous breasts seemingly to prevent the advent of cancer in the future.
The 'War on Cancer' is a common term that has been around for decades, but this
'war' has not yet done any good for the health of the general public. Cancerous
infections continue to rise all over the world due to a lack of medicine that
can prevent or cure cancer. So, why are the decade-long research studies giving
no fruit? The answer is simple, because the big pharmaceutical industries do
not want them to. The fear of cancer is an effective way for them to maximize
their profits and who in this world wants to smother a lucrative way of income.
However, many doctors nowadays have also embarked on a mission to dupe their
patients and earn a lot from them by executing unnecessary surgeries.
Natural News has revealed that about 1.8 million hexagenerians (person whose chronological age is between 60 and 69 years old) who were Medicare beneficiaries died in 2008. 34 percent of them were operated on in the year preceding their death, 25 percent were operated on in their last month and 10 percent were operated on in their last week.

Speculation of lights seen in the sky early Sunday morning above San Francisco's Mission District has ranged from floating candles to balloons with lights, but ultimately the strange lights still remain a mystery.
Unlike a meteor seen streaking across the early morning sky in Texas late last week, the lights in California seemed to be flickering in formation, according to reports give to CBS 5 out of San Francisco.
Enrique Barrios, who took video of the lights with his cellphone, described them to CBS 5 as "like flame, you know, fireballs in the sky." He went on to tell the channel at first they "looked like flying candles," but later "they started making formations, triangular formations." Barrios said he is "100 percent sure this was a UFO."

DENVER - Go ahead and bust out the Cheetos and Goldfish, Colorado. Marijuana is now legal in the Centennial State.
Just over a month after the citizens of Colorado voted overwhelmingly in favor of Amendment 64 to legalize marijuana for recreational use, Democratic Governor John Hickenlooper signed the Executive Order that makes an "official declaration of the vote."
What does it mean?
"It formalizes the amendment as part of the state Constitution and makes legal the personal use, possession and limited home-growing of marijuana under Colorado law for adults 21 years of age and older," the Governor's office wrote in a press release.
That said, the release went on to say that that it is still illegal to buy or sell marijuana or to consume marijuana in public.

Google Inc. (GOOG) avoided about $2 billion in worldwide income taxes in 2011 by shifting $9.8 billion in revenues into a Bermuda shell company, almost double the total from three years before, filings show.
By legally funneling profits from overseas subsidiaries into Bermuda, which doesn't have a corporate income tax, Google cut its overall tax rate almost in half. The amount moved to Bermuda is equivalent to about 80 percent of Google's total pretax profit in 2011.
The increase in Google's revenues routed to Bermuda, disclosed in a Nov. 21 filing by a subsidiary in the Netherlands, could fuel the outrage spreading across Europe and in the U.S. over corporate tax dodging. Governments in France, the U.K., Italy and Australia are probing Google's tax avoidance as they seek to boost revenue during economic doldrums.

Two weeks ago, Oscar-winning actor Jamie Foxx made national headlines when he called President Obama "Our lord and savior."
While hosting NBC's Saturday Night Live this weekend, Foxx joked about how in his new film "Django Unchained," "I kill all the white people in the movie. How great is that?"
JAMIE FOXX: My name is Jamie Foxx. Give it up, give it up, New York City, Saturday Night Live. Come on, make some noise, man. New York City, New York City, Brooklyn, Staten Island, Queens, it's crazy. I'm black, and I'm dressed all black cause it's good to be black. Black is the new white. I'm telling you, how black is this right here? Nice fly, I'm saying. You know how I know black is in right now? Cause the Nets moved to Brooklyn. How black is that? They got black jerseys, black court. I mean, how black is that? And Jay-z is the owner, a rapper. How black is that? And Jay-z only own about this much of the team. But he act like he own all of New York. How black is that?

Tokyo (CNN) -- A powerful earthquake struck off the northeast coast of Japan on Friday evening, rattling buildings in Tokyo and setting off a small tsunami.
It also jarred nerves in a nation still recovering from the devastating earthquake and tsunami in March 2011 that killed thousands of people and triggered the world's worst nuclear crisis in a quarter century.
Some roads were closed and rail services suspended in the northeastern prefecture of Miyagi, where a one-meter (3-foot) tsunami rolled ashore. It was followed by four other waves ranging from eight to 16 inches. Only minor injuries were reported immediately, including five in Miyagi and five on the outskirts of Tokyo.

In a gutsy move, Kenya's government has banned all imported GMO goods - effective immediately. They are also suspending all sales of genetically modified produce and foods with GM ingredients until health safety is confirmed. The ban is not permanent, however - it depends on what evidence the ministry concludes. Biotechnology research can continue.
On November 8th, Health Minister Beth Mugo made the announcement with Kenyan president Mwai Kibaki present and also said:
My ministry wishes to clarify the decision was based on genuine concerns that adequate research had not been done on GMOs and scientific evidence provided to prove the safety of these foods.
Taking a better-safe-than-sorry approach, she added, "Where there is apprehension and uncertainty regarding the safety of food products, precaution to protect the health of the people must be undertaken."

A county Sheriff's department in California that planned to buy and operate a surveillance drone has been forced to suspend the idea, and possibly scrap it altogether after privacy advocates fought tooth and nail in opposition.
The Oakland Tribune reports that the American Civil Liberties Union stepped in earlier this week to prevent the Alameda County Sheriff's office from acquiring the drone using grant money from the California Emergency Management Agency.
"...the Sheriff's Office was asking the supervisors on Tuesday to approve a $31,646 grant to help pay for a drone, indicating that the department was far closer to acquisition than they had led the public to believe." the newspaper reports.

The above film clip is not a "behind the scenes" of the latest Dawn of the Dead straight-to-DVD ripoff. It is the actual footage of a first responder seminar in San Diego, Calif. The Department of Homeland Security deemed the event an allowable expense, enabling participants to use federal grant funding to pay to go.
That's according to "Safety at Any Price: Assessing the Impact of Homeland Security Spending in U.S. Cities" a report compiled by Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Okla., who chairs the investigations subcommittee of the Homeland Security and Government Affairs Committee. The report focuses on grants made by the DHS and the Urban Areas Security Initiative. Coburn says the report shows that DHS was "directing scarce dollars to low-priority project and low-risk areas." (Read the complete report in the embedded viewer below this story.)
Coburn found that, among other things, DHS was spending money on teaching first responders how to stop flesh-eating ghouls. The report said the event was held by the HALO Corp. "at the Paradise Point Resort & Spa on an island outside San Diego 9 (and) the 5-day summit was deemed an allowable expense by DHS, permitting first responders to use grant funds for the $1,000 entrance fee."

Standard & Poor's on Wednesday cut Greece's sovereign long-term foreign currency credit rating to "selective default" from an already low "CCC" rating.
Last week Greece and its international lenders reached a deal to lower the country's debt burden, which included a debt buyback.
The decision to lower the sovereign rating follows the government's invitation to private sector bondholders to participate in the debt buyback "which under our criteria we view as a selective default," S&P said in an e-mailed statement.
"When the buyback is consummated (which we understand is scheduled to occur on or about Dec. 17, 2012), we will likely consider the selective default to be cured and raise the sovereign credit rating on Greece to the 'CCC' category," the statement said.

Mike Adams, "The world will end in 16 days, we've been told. That's when the Mayan calendar "runs out," causing us all to cease to exist, the story goes. It's hoopla, of course."
How do you spend your last days on Earth? Should you go on a spending spree, more than you can afford, and break your wallet and purses wide open? Hey, go on that hang gliding lesson you've been dreaming about. Go to Bermuda or Hilton Head! Heck, quit your job, and go to Acapulco, Mexico and make sure that by DECEMBER 21st you don't have a penny. Also, forget about good health because that won't matter where you're heading, where we all heading. Go eat wild colorful desserts for meals. Go drink some Jack D or maybe some peach brandy until you can't stand up.
Wait. I have a better idea. What about living your life organic and authentic, no matter what's coming this way, or going "that way," and no matter what "impending doom" looms on the calendar, on the solstice, on the change of seasons, right before that huge holiday you've probably already spent your savings on. What about if the Government stages some disaster so everybody will buy certain products and get certain vaccines?

Dear friends,
You probably hoped it wouldn't come to this, but it has. British scientists are calling for the legislation for a technique for creating babies with altered genes. There is no good medical argument for doing this. There are less than two weeks to persuade the government that the consequences of doing so would be disastrous. If you care about genetic engineering of crops and animals you should care about the threat of GE children.
Although microbes, plants and animals have been genetically engineered, surprisingly for the last 20 years governments around the world have strongly resisted scientists' attenpts to do the same to humans. Now scientists have found a way to cross this line without appearing to do so. Do not be fooled! Although these techniques are not genetic modification, they will result in babies whose genes have been intentionally altered. These genes will be passed down the female line to all their descendents, so this is genetic engineering. Once this crucial ethical line has been crossed it will be impossible to go back, and we will rapidly descend into the future of GM 'designer babies' eugenics that everyone wants to avoid. The only way to avoid that is to insist on the ban on any form of genetic engineering of humans.

Samples of U.S. pork-chop and ground-pork have been found to contain significant amounts of harmful and antibiotic-resistant bacteria, along with low levels of a growth hormone used to promote growth in pigs, an analysis from Consumer Reports revealed.
About 3 percent to 7 percent of the pork samples contained dangerous bacteria, such as salmonella, staphylococcus aureus and listeria monocytogenes, all of which are notorious for causing foodborne illnesses. Most notably, the report found widespread contamination of the bacterium yersinia enterocolitica. Known for inducing fever, diarrhea and abdominal pain, yersinia enterocolitica was in 69 percent of the tested samples.
In 198 samples, some of the bacteria discovered by the analysis were found to be antibiotic-resistant, which Consumer Reports suggested may be a result of the pork farming industry's common use of low-dose antibiotics to promote weight gain. Antibiotic-resistant bacteria has become a recent cause for concern in the past few years, because these harmful "superbugs" cannot be treated by conventional antibiotics.

Calcium deficiency is in everyone's minds, but how many folks consider the vital importance of magnesium in human health and disease?
New research published in the journal BMC Bioinformatics indicates that magnesium's role in human health and disease is far more significant and complicated than previously imagined.
While it is well known that all living things require magnesium, and that it is found in over 300 enzymes in the human body, including those enzymes utilizing or synthesizing ATP (the molecular unit of currency for energy transfer), the new studied titled, "3,751 magnesium binding sites have been detected on human proteins," indicates that a deficiency of magnesium may profoundly affect a far wider range of biological structures than previously understood.[i]
The proteome, or entire set of proteins expressed by the human genome, contains well over 100,000 distinct protein structures, despite the fact that there are believed to be only 20,300 protein-coding genes in the human genome.

Will you be "okay" with a premature death? I doubt it. So then why do most of us act like we're okay with it? There is a cumulative effect from eating poisons, even if it's just a "little bit" each day. There are enough chemicals in common products to easily end your life in the next 10 to 20 years.
Just as you have to be a defensive driver to avoid accidents, you have to be a defensive consumer to avoid all of the chemicals that you can ingest on a daily basis.
Put it this way, if you were getting sick from moldy bread, would you look for a cure from a vaccine, or medicine, or consider surgery, while you kept on eating more moldy bread every day? No. So why then do we spend so much time and money on finding a cure for aCHEMICALLY DRIVEN KILLER, all while we keep pouring in the poison that breeds it?! Change the way you look at the cure for cancer ... view it as a disciplined, active prevention plan, and the cure will follow.
So ... how badly do you want to live?!

40 years of austerity politics have hollowed out the heartland, as financial wizards of Wall Street gobbled up ever more of the nation's resources.
"Debtpocalypse" looms.
Depending on who wins out in Washington, we're told , we will either free fall over the fiscal cliff or take a terrifying slide to the pit at the bottom. Grim as these scenarios might seem, there is something confected about the mise-en-scene, like an un-fun Playland. After all, there is no fiscal cliff, or at least there was none -- until the two parties built it.
And yet the pit exists. It goes by the name of "austerity." However, it didn't just appear in time for the last election season or the lame-duck session of Congress to follow. It was dug more than a generation ago, and has been getting wider and deeper ever since. Millions of people have long made it their home. "Debtpocalypse" is merely the latest installment in a tragic, 40-year-old story of the dispossession of American working people.

Newly available emails reveal Merck was far from concerned when a disease linked to Fosamax surfaced.
As early as 2004, Merck knew its blockbuster osteoporosis drug Fosamax was causing osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ) after in-office dental procedures and ridiculed afflicted patients. The condition, also called jawbone death, occurs when traumatized tissue doesn't heal but becomes "necrotic" and dies. "Ma toot hurts so bad" mimicked Merck bone scientist Don Kimmel in a 2004 email to Merck health science consultant Sharon Scurato about the type of patient who was developing ONJ. Such a patient "could be an oral hog," wrote Kimmel, then a bone scientist in Merck's department of Molecular Endocrinology/Bone Biology and trained as a dentist--someone with pre-existing infections and periodontal disease who omits preventative care.

The GMO labeling referendum, Prop. 37, couldn't pass in California this past election - but the country of Peru was able to pass a ban on GMO seeds for the next 10 years in recent weeks.[1] They are now one of many countries stepping up the fight against Genetically Modified Organisms, but will the United States join the bandwagon in stopping the influence of GMO giants as countries like Peru have?
According to PeruvianTimes.com, Environment Minister Manuel Pulgar Vidal said the law was approved by President Ollanta Humala, and is aimed at preserving Peru's biodiversity and supporting local farmers.
In a previous article by TheMediaSpeaks.com, "37 Good Reasons to Vote Yes on Prop. 37", it exposed many facts about the risks and dangers that GMO's have.[2] For example, the tumors, infertility and cancer that lab rats and mice formed while only consuming genetically modified corn in independent lab tests.
