Are you listening President Obama?

"You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy

out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for, another

person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to

anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody

else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work

because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other

half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is

going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is the beginning of

the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it."
-- Adrian Rogers, 1931

Bookcrossing.com

Bookcrossing is 'a global book club that crosses time and space. It's a reading group that knows no geographical boundaries.' The reader who recommended the site commented, "This is a site that is packed with serendipity. The idea is to read a book, register it on the site, then release it into the wild. As people find the book, they go to the website, enter in the BCID, review the book, and release it again." What a great way to discover new books, some you might never have taken the time to read! And for you authors who are concerned about your material being distributed at no cost, the recommender states, "It makes for a good excuse to buy more books, too!"


Dream Anatomy

The introduction to U. S. National Library of Medicine's Dream Anatomy explains, "What happens beneath the skin is mysterious, fearful, amazing. In antiquity, the body's internal structure was the subject of speculation, fantasy, and some study, but there were few efforts to represent it in pictures. The invention of the printing press in the 15th century ... helped to inspire a new spectacular science of anatomy, and new spectacular visions of the body. Anatomical imagery proliferated, detailed and informative but also whimsical, surreal, beautiful, and grotesque — a dream anatomy that reveals as much about the outer world as it does the inner self." Here's your opportunity to view the rich collection of images and artifacts reflecting 'anatomical imagination in some of its most astonishing incarnations, from 1500 to the present.' A little browsing is sure to help you appreciate human anatomy and possibly in the process, your own inner self!

IT'S NOT THE FLU ...

... IT'S THE VACCINE

by David Icke

Jane Burgermeister has filed bioterrorism charges with the FBI against Avir Green Hills Biotechnology, based in Austria; Baxter AG, also in Austria; and its parent company Baxter International in Deerfield, Illinois. Guess which company is providing much of the swine flu vaccine for mass
inoculation - Baxter International. This is the same Baxter International that sent bird flu virus to European laboratories 'by mistake' earlier this year and it was mixed with a seasonal flu virus to create a much more dangerous strain.

Last year at least 81 people were killed by Baxter International's contaminated blood-thinning product, heparin, which was made in China from, among other things, pig intestines. Isn't pharmaceutical medicine wonderful? The contaminated heparin also seriously injured hundreds of others and it was revealed that the factory of Baxter's Chinese supplier had never been inspected by either American or Chinese public 'protection' agencies.

More than 50 dialysis patients died in 2001 because of faults with Baxter International equipment, and this month Baxter Healthcare Corporation, a subsidiary of Baxter International, reached an out-of-court settlement of two million dollars with the State of Kentucky. Baxter had been caught inflating the cost of intravenous drugs sold to Kentucky Medicaid by as much as 1,300 per cent.

This is clearly a company you can trust and it is now is a major source of the swine flu vaccine that governments across the world want to impose upon entire populations with the most minimal safety checks. The vaccine is being fast-tracked through the regulatory system with safety trials lasting less than a week. The London Times reported:

'Regulators at the European Medicines Agency said the fast-tracked procedure has involved clinical trials of a "mock-up" vaccine similar to the one that will be used for the biggest mass vaccination programme in generations. It will be introduced into the general population while regulators continue to carry out simultaneous clinical trials.'


My emphasis.

The scale and speed of the planned vaccination programme is insane given that the overwhelming majority of those who have contracted the virus have had very mild symptoms. Dr Peter Holden of the Rothschild-controlled British Medical Association said that although swine flu was not causing serious illness they were eager to start a mass vaccination campaign, beginning with 'priority groups'. Ugh?? This is not about public health and never was.
