Everyone is allergic to the GM foods, it comes out as depression, anger, memory loss, confusion, nerve tics, aches and pains in joints and muscles, brain, breast, pancreatic, bladder, gallbladder, liver, kidney and colon cancers. The cancer index for adults and children have risen several thousand times in the last several years. As in 5000% increase. Think about that for a minute. The antennas of the microwaves, and EMF's, cell phones, Frankenfoods, polluted air, water, and land.

"It could have ended all plant life on this continent," geneticist David Suzuki says in the book. "The implications of this case are nothing short of terrifying."

Suddenly the full store-houses were found empty.
2 Esdras 6:22 (ii) And suddenly shall the sown places
appear unsown, the full storehouses shall suddenly be found empty:
6:23 (iii) And the trumpet (6th or 7th - Rev. 9-10) shall give a sound,
which when every man heareth, they shall be suddenly afraid. http://i.am/jah/kofkad.htm

In Mexico, Greed Kills Fish by the Seaful
(April 10, 2002)

(...) Greed and corruption are draining the gulf, also known as the Sea
of Cortés. It is not dead yet, but it is exhausted. American and
Japanese ships were the first to exploit it. Now fleets of Mexican fishermen,
mostly unlicensed and ungoverned, are taking whatever they can, as fast
as they can, for American and Asian markets. Every important species of
fish in the sea is in sharp decline, fishermen and marine scientists say.
Overfishing is a global problem. People are taking marine life faster
than it can reproduce. The world's catch peaked at 86 million tons in

A fight for independence once again is centered on Pennsylvania. Small-town
opponents of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) biosolids program
are seeking legislative independence from what started as a governmental
solution for a hazardous-waste problem. That solution, according to EPA's
own findings, is a deadly one.
In 1981 the federal government began its shift from regarding sewage
sludge from urban wastewater-treatment plants as a pollutant to promoting
it for rural land as fertilizer, which later would be called "biosolids."
This suited politically correct notions of ecological balance: cleaning
America's waters by recycling human waste into food for humanity. Angry
farmers and rural residents with little use for ideological instruction
on the quiet pleasures of ecology may be forgiven if they regard land
application of urban sewage sludge as hit-and-run dumping of hazardous
wastes in the countryside.
Meanwhile, companies that earn millions from contracts to haul the residue
from wastewater-treatment plants to disposal sites assure government-wary
farm families that, when managed properly, Class B sludge can be handled
very safely and that it is good for the soil. Industry representatives
insist it is treated according to government standards so that pathogens
largely are removed, but rural residents inured to the smells of
farm animals and their manure sometimes describe the stink of sewage
sludge dumped on the land as "horrific."
Documents obtained by Insight now confirm that EPA
and other federal agencies have been aware all along that stench is not
the only issue with biosolids [see "Sludge Mess in EPA's Back
Yard," March 25, and "Will EPA Clean Up Its Sludge Policy?"
Feb. 25]. As allegations mount of illness and deaths related to aerosolized
emissions from sludge applied to land, officials at both the federal and
state levels will be called on to tell what
they knew, when they knew it and why they didn't do anything about it.

The good news for the Pentagon yesterday was that its investigators had finally
unearthed evidence of weapons of mass destruction, including 100 vials of anthrax
and other dangerous bacteria. The bad news was that the stash was found, not
in Iraq, but fewer than 50 miles from Washington, near Fort Detrick in the Maryland
countryside.

A small sample of Afghan civilians have shown "astonishing" levels of uranium in their urine, an independent scientist says.
He said they had the same symptoms as some veterans of the 1991 Gulf war.
But he found no trace of the depleted uranium (DU) some scientists believe is implicated in Gulf War syndrome.
Other researchers suggest new types of radioactive weapons may have been used in Afghanistan.

SSO 700 is an unremarkable spot. Just a pipe, hidden by trees and brush, emptying into Mill Creek near downtown Cincinnati.
''It just gushes, even in dry weather,'' says Mike Fremont, president of the Ohio environmental group Rivers Unlimited. ''If you know what it is, you keep your distance.''
What it is, is human waste -- hundreds of gallons of it at a time flowing untreated from toilets into the creek. Sanitary Sewer Overflow 700 is not only disgusting, it is illegal. But the city won't shut it off because plugging SSO 700 and more than 100 pipes like it all over Cincinnati would require raising sewer rates about 1,500%.
