Steven Gaal Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 (edited) Health Guide: GMO Research The world's most widely referenced, evidence-based natural medicine resource, available to everyone ---------------------o---------------------- (link below put it in your favorites) http://www.greenmedinfo.com/guide/health-guide-gmo-research +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ This section is dedicated to making the public more aware of the adverse health and environmental consequences of recombinant DNA technologies when applied to food production. Our database contains two relevant sections on genetically modified foods: 1) research "nodes," which include the problematic action "genetically modified organisms," as well as keyword sections such as "gmo's and horizontal gene transfer," all of which consist of bundled abstracts of studies from peer-reviewed and published scientific journals (NLM sourced). 2) Op-ed articles written about the research contained with the first section described. The goal of our research project is to index, organize and disseminate the often under-reported and/or minimized research on the unintended and adverse effects of genetic modification. Key: CK(#) = Cumulative Knowledge, a measure of evidence quality or strength AC(#) = Article Count, the number of articles that have accumulated on the topic thus far. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ====================================================== Relevant Database SectionsAnti Therapeutic Actions Genetically Modified Organisms : CK(41) : AC(26) Vaccination: GMO Vaccines : CK(1) : AC(1) Problem Substances Glyphosate : CK(336) : AC(90) Roundup (herbicide) : CK(280) : AC(78) Additional Keywords Gmo's and Horizontal Gene Transfer : CK(5) : AC(3) Latest Relevant ArticleGenotoxic effects of the herbicide Roundup(®) have been observed in the fish species Corydoras paleatus after short-term, environmentally low concentration exposure.

Written by Sayer Ji, founder GMO farming practices heavily dependent upon glyphosate herbicide formulations such as Roundup have serious, unintended adverse effects on human and environmental health. New research indicates glyphosate does not break down rapidly, as the manufacturer claimed, but is accumulating in the groundwater -the source for most of the world's drinking water. Surprise! Monsanto-Funded Research Finds Their Products Safe Written by Sayer Ji, founder It appears that corporations such as Monsanto can special order "research" from susceptible researchers and/or research institutions and use peer-reviewed journals to transform their propaganda into seemingly legitimate scientific opinion. ======== Un-Earthed: Is Monsanto's Glyphosate Destroying The Soil? Written by Sayer Ji, founder 2011-2012 have been watershed years, as far as scientific revelations into the nature and extent of the damage associated with glyphosate herbicide usage and exposure is concerned. But new findings indicate the problem may be far worse than previously understood. The very soil, the foundation for the entire food chain upon which we depend, may be at risk of irreversible adverse changes. ======== Breaking News: Monsanto To Face Biopiracy Charges In India Written by Sayer Ji, founder In an unprecedented decision, India's National Biodiversity Authority (NBA), a government agency, declared legal action against Monsanto (and their collaborators) for accessing and using local eggplant varieties to develop their Bt genetically engineered version1 without prior approval of the competent authorities, which is considered an act of "biopiracy." ========= Monsanto-Funded Science Denies Emerging Roundup-Cancer Link Written by Sayer Ji, founder Monsanto-funded research has been proliferating as uncontrollably as their genetically modified (GM) plants, and the bugs resistant to them, of late. Two studies have appeared in scientific journals in the past eight months, both funded by Monsanto, and both discrediting a Roundup herbicide-cancer link. ========= Research: Roundup Diluted by 450-Fold is Still Toxic to DNA Written by Sayer Ji, founder New research released ahead of print and published in the journal Archives of Toxicology (peer reviewed) indicates that Roundup, the most common formulation of glyphosate, which is the largest selling herbicide in the world, is not only more toxic than its constituent ingredients, but is capable of damaging DNA within a human cell line when diluted down to 45,000% lower concentrations than presently used in GMO agriculture applications. ========== Will Monsanto's Weedkiller Destroy Raw & Fermented Milk? Written by Sayer Ji, founder New research indicates that the microbial biodiversity of the soil and our food is being dramatically impacted by the use of herbicides like glyphosate, the active ingredient in Monsanto’s Roundup weedkiller. Researchers have proposed that many soil organisms, which are indispensable for the productivity of the soil in agriculture, as well as in raw and fermented dairy production, may be undergoing endangerment, if not also in some cases extinction in certain geographic regions of the world.

Len Colby Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 One thing that raises my eyebrows about sites like this that they inevitably have some sort of financial stake in the alternative treatments they champion. Oddly they claim to be "entirely solar-powered" and ask for donations because " carrying costs incurred by a state-of-the-art solar-powered dedicated server are now well over $500 a month." but a link on the same page indicates it is a "SITE HOSTED WITH HYDROPOWER" which leads to page claiming to offer "lighting fast servers hosted with 100% hydro power". Wow they really are environmentally conscious 200% of the energy to run their servers come from renewable sources! Also the most expensive package the server site offers starts "at $ 17.99 USD Monthly" that's 1/28 of "over $500" it offers 20 gB of space and 250 gB data transfer, do they really transfer over 7 terabytes of data a month? This reminds me of the scam in the Producers or even more so and old episode of Law and Order, the owner of the site should be careful the victim in that show was killed over his participation in a similar scam.

Soon I expect he will claim the site is 100% windpowered and then 100% tidal powered meaning 400% of its electricity comes from renewable sources.

Steven Gaal Posted August 3, 2012 Author Share Posted August 3, 2012 (edited) Fake forum comments are 'eroding' trust in the web --------------------------------------BBC 11/24/11 --------------------------------------------- Fakes in comment forums and social networks can erode trust in what we see online Trust in information on the web is being damaged by the huge numbers of people paid by companies to post comments online, say researchers. Fake posters can "poison" debate and make people unsure about who they can trust, the study suggests. Some firms have created tens of thousands of fake accounts to flood chat forums and skew debate. The researchers say there are reliable ways to spot fakes and urge websites to do more to police users. The researchers from Canada and China say paying people to post comments is an "interesting strategy in business marketing" but it is not a benign activity. "Paid posters may create a significant negative effect on the online communities, since the information from paid posters is usually not trustworthy," they wrote. Battles In some cases, rival companies have used competing armies of workers to wage comment wars that confused members of the public looking for unbiased information. The researchers say the fake comments can overwhelm some users, causing them to find it hard to trust any information found online. They give the example of a spike in activity on a World of Warcraft chat forum on the Chinese website Baidu. A thread titled "Junpeng Jia, your mother asked you to go back home for dinner!" received over 300,000 replies over a two day period. A PR company later claimed it had employed 800 individuals to run 20,000 separate accounts on the site to help maintain interest in the videogame while it was down for maintenance. Growing problem While the practice of flooding forums with fake comments is most widespread in China, where such posters are called the Internet Water Army, it is becoming common in other nations too. The US military is known to use fakes to infiltrate chat forums to gather information about potential terror groups. Similarly many Facebook pages are plagued by bogus friends and "social bots" that are used to stage debates. Many marketing firms also seed forums with comments in a bid to create "viral" interest in a company or event. However, fakes can be spotted by analysing their patterns of activity and the words they use, say the researchers. Fakes are more likely to start new comment threads, make inane comments rather than add to a debate, and repeat former comments with minor changes, the study suggests. The researchers say they are refining software tools to help website administrators tackle the "painful" problem. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ see http://www.scribd.co...Percent-in-2009 YT SHILLS are PAID GOV'T EMPLOYEES, Pentagon spends $4.7 BILLION on INTERNET SHILLS http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c4xci40HZ8s ############################# see http://myparnasa.com...srael-bloggers/ Edited August 3, 2012 by Steven Gaal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He stated explicietly these were the costs of running the server (i.e. data hosting) get back to us with evidence the "webmastering fee" could be so high. And your rationalisation didn't address his claims the servers were 100% solar and 100% hydro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
