Life is a garden ...



life is a garden,
not a road
 
we enter and exit
through the same gate
 
wandering,
where we go matters less
than what we notice

The mass development of genetically modified crops risks causing the world's worst environmental disaster, The Prince of Wales has warned.
 
In his most outspoken intervention on the issue of GM food, the Prince said that multi-national companies were conducting an experiment with nature which had gone "seriously wrong".

He accused firms of conducting a "gigantic experiment I think with nature and the whole of humanity which has gone seriously wrong".

"Why else are we facing all these challenges, climate change and everything?".
The Prince of Wales: 'If that is the future, count me out'  


Relying on "gigantic corporations" for food, he said, would result in "absolute disaster".

INJURY BOARD: U.S. Lacks Warning System on Artificial Joints


Excellent article here from Injury Board.

Upton Sinclair said it best: "It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends upon his not understanding it."

Earlier articles revealed that as part of a settlement agreement with the United States attorney in Newark, the five largest manufacturers of artificial joints released records showing they paid physicians and hospitals more than $200 million this year. Some doctors promoting these devices received nearly $2,000,000 in one year alone. How unbiased can this be?

Daily, we see plastic surgeons and med device public relations people thoughout the interwebs promoting implants and other expensive surgeries ... how much do they earn ?

This excellent CBS piece, discussed how much the vaccination industry promoters receive hundreds of thousands of dollars.

A related article can be read here: Medical Device Makers Settle Kickbacks Probe for $311M.

With the various media being filled with industry voices disguised as unbiased writers, our health decisions are put at risk.

Prominent Breast Implant / Fen-Phen Attorney, Rick Laminack, accused as 'Sexual Predator' & for 'Defrauding' Clients

Thank you, Toxic Discovery for this information.
 
EXCERPTS:
 
Robinson brings broader allegations involving fen-phen litigation against the defendants. Robinson, a Magnolia, Texas, woman who worked on fen-phen litigation while employed at the firms, alleges the defendants engaged in mail fraud under 18 U.S.C. §1962 for mailing settlement statements to fen-phen clients that contained overcharges for medical records. Robinson alleges "firm employees would order fictitious medical records" for clients from health-care providers that had never treated those clients, and then the firms added $100 to $150 to the expenses deducted from the clients' portion of their fen-phen settlements for those "fictitious medical records." She alleges the record companies would then pay a "kickback" to employees of the firms.      Law.com
