UPDATE 2 Oct 31, 2014 – received another link: Simple plant kills up to 98% of cancer cells, and stops diabetes, on Second Opinion, June 26, 2013: … (it) is a common vegetable from Asia called “bitter melon.” It is popular among the long-lived population of Okinawa, Japan. Bitter melon juice diluted to just 5% in water showed remarkable potency in severely damaging all four pancreatic cancer cell lines researchers tested. The bitter melon reduced the viability of two cancer cell lines by 90%, while it knocked off the other two lines by a staggering 98%. And it did so after just 72 hours of treatment! In the past, I’ve told you about apoptosis. That’s nature’s way of dealing with wayward cells. They simply kill themselves. Bitter melon juice induced this programmed cell death along several different pathways. And even better, it also activated a pathway, which shows that it knocks out the cancer cells’ metabolism of glucose. In other words, it literally starved them of the sugar they need to survive … (REF: Science News, 3-12-2013) …;
comment by Marc Rivard, M.D.: those are called lemonids compounds and are well known and studied by oncologists along with other natural extracts. In reality, those compounds don’t kill cancer; they slow and/or reduce the size of the cancer in model animals. We are far from killing 98% of cancers! …;
another person’s comment: but I must add a firsthand testimony about diabetes: Our gardener, 60 years old, was diagnosed with diabetes. He moved to Okinawa and started drinking goya (a fruit) juice every morning, and within a few months his diabetes was cured …;

… The recent resurgence of Randian philosophy is best be exemplified by The Tea Party. Undeniably the movement has followers who truly idolize Rand (and her text: Atlas Shrugged) some even going so far as to carry signs in reference to Rand protagonist John Galt. It’s likely that many aren’t directly familiar with her works, other than having a knee jerk positive reaction to a theory that fits nicely with branding certain segments of the society as “parasites”.

One delectable irony in regard to Tea Party policy is the fact that the followers have no idea how astutely they are emulating Rand. The group, often was seen last year advancing the “no socialist healthcare” dogma, all the while, many were served by one quite successful collective program, that of Medicare. It’s a common theme with the group, the concept that one is deserving of these types of programs, yet “others” do not merit the same protections.   Continue Reading…

Historique de la lutte anti-sectes en France de 1945 à nos jours

1. Au XIXe siècle … A la fin du XIXe siècle et au début du XXe, le mouvement ésotérique était excessivement important en France et on était même leader sur l’Europe. Il y avait tout un tas de mouvements ésotériques, d’associations, de sociétés qui avaient leur siège en France ou en Angleterre et des ramifications partout dans le monde. Il y avait dans ces mouvements-là des écrivains célèbres, des hommes politiques,… Et il n’y avait pas d’incompatibilité, cela semblait aller de soi. Les mouvements ésotériques ont influencé une partie de la littérature de la fin du XIXe, c’était quelque chose de connu et d’avéré. Puis il y a eu un trou jusque dans les années 1950. Ce mouvement s’est re-développé à partir des années 1960 et a pris petit à petit de l’ampleur.[1]   Continue Reading…

The Inter American Press Association IAPA has selected 22 finalists from its public contest to create an anthem honoring journalists murdered in Latin America.  The contest is part of IAPA’s Impunity Project, which aims to combat violence against journalists and lessen the impunity surrounding the majority of those crimes.

Named “Lend your Voice to the Voiceless,” the competition set out to allow anyone to post videos, songs or lyrics for approval by a network of online peers and has received support from well-known artists like Emilio Estefan. So far, the content has garnered the attention of over 57,000 votes from thousands of registered online voters.  Continue Reading…

Army Pfc. Bradley Manning, who is facing court-martial for leaking military reports and diplomatic cables to WikiLeaks, is being held in solitary confinement in Quantico brig in Virginia. Each night, he is forced to strip naked and sleep in a gown made of coarse material. He has been made to stand naked in the morning as other inmates walked by and looked. As journalist Lance Tapley documents in his chapter on torture in the supermax prisons in The United States and Torture, solitary confinement can lead to hallucinations and suicide; it is considered to be torture. Manning’s forced nudity amounts to humiliating and degrading treatment, in violation of U.S. and international law.  Continue Reading…

Short excerpt of Interview published on Theory Talks, March 7, 2011.

… Q.: You introduce the notion of ‘security assemblages’ to describe the complex mixes of actors involved in security governance. Does this mean a departure from the status quo of assuming that states are always in the center of security governance?

A.: RA We introduced the notion of ‘security assemblages’ to denote something which one can find in most settings, namely, a pluralization of the nature of security actors involved. Yet the specific mix of actors, their relationships, or how the field is assembled is not something one can predict or theorise a priori, but rather an empirical question that requires investigation. The more traditional approach meant, because of its Weberian heritage, that one always starts out assuming that security involves only or mostly the army or police, i.e. public actors with a monopoly of the use of force. Instead, we start out by saying that most of the time, security governance involves other actors in addition to the state, to ask, well, which actors are they, what is their relationship to public actors, and what are the implications.  Continue Reading…

Tursunbek Akun has been a champion of human rights in Kyrgyzstan for a long time now. And not just in Kyrgyzstan. Akun, who has served as Kyrgyzstan’s ombudsman for since 2008, wrote to his Uzbek counterpart Sayera Rashidova (daughter of Uzbekistan’s longtime Soviet leader Sharaf Rashidov) asking her to intervene and have the Human Rights Watch office in Uzbekistan reopened.

“I do not doubt even a bit that Human Rights Watch staff were doing in Uzbekistan the crucial, and I should admit, difficult work — at times putting their own lives in danger — of monitoring and protecting civil and human rights and freedoms,” Akun wrote. “They never meant to do any harm to your government or people,” he added, asking, “I hope that you, as the human rights commissioner of the Uzbek parliament, will make all efforts to inform your country’s leadership about the positive side and the necessity of the HRW’s presence in Uzbekistan, which would ultimately make it possible to correct this regrettable misunderstanding and put an end to the issue” … //  Continue Reading…

OTTAWA – Le député libéral Justin Trudeau a présenté des excuses, mardi, après avoir exprimé ses préoccupations concernant l’utilisation du mot barbare pour décrire les crimes d’honneur et les mutilations génitales féminines dans le guide officiel sur la citoyenneté canadienne.

M. Trudeau a reconnu, après l’envoi de nombreux messages sur Twitter, que ces actes sont en effet barbares.

Pour la dernière fois, je suis d’accord pour dire que les crimes d’honneur sont barbares. Mon problème concerne le ton employé dans le guide et le public cible visé, pouvait-on lire dans l’un des 14 messages qu’il a envoyés mardi matin.

This is not a review as such but just some notes on Lesego Rampolokeng’s Notes for TOU (The Original Ungovernables).

Notes for TOU is vintage Lesego Rampolokeng, recreating language, overturning idiomsconceptsterms, giving birth to new words and developing new proverbs to deal with “new” realities. Like Aime Cessaire in Return to the Native Land, Lesego Rampolokeng shuns romantic portrayal of his motherland’s past and present (and future). He uses graphically surreal images – and definitely not politically correct lingo – to interrogate post-freedom dreams and nightmares. The note is  in the loving memory of the unnamed  unknown unremembered  boys and girls who walked into the lion’s den to make Apartheid South Africa ungovernable to  free Mandela to liberate South Africa to build a new South Africa to see the dawn of the government of the people … the young lions who never returned from exile, the combatants who disappeard (not) mysteriously, the former guerillas who were not fortunate enough to make it to parliament or to know someone who knows someone who has they key to getting tenders.  Continue Reading…

Our attention is suddenly torn from Libya to the potential nuclear tragedy in Japan. But the events in Libya and Japan have one thing in common. In each case powerful, yet short-sighted interests have obstructed a rational approach to nuclear power. Recent Western support for Moammar Gaddafi’s ambition to build a Libyan nuclear energy programme reinforces the point … //

… In the case of Libya, Western states normalised military-industrial relations while ignoring Gaddafi’s internal repression. France led the rush to supply Gaddafi with  nuclear reactors to US approval while Europe has a special guilt since the EU had him imprison thousands of would be immigrants who have failed to cross the Mediterranean moat, and failed to ensure any UN or Red Cross presence or attention to human rights at all … //    Continue Reading…

The worst-case scenario for Côte d’Ivoire – outside of military intervention – seems to have been ruled out, but the West’s alternative strategy for ousting Laurent Gbagbo – economic and financial sanctions – will also destroy the country, argues Pierre Sané. Is it a question of ‘imposing Alassane Ouattara at all costs’, no matter what the true outcome of the election might have been?

The worst-case scenario, outside armed intervention, having apparently been ruled out, now we see the strategy of the absurd unfurling unafraid of contradictions. We are being promised an ‘economic and financial strangulation’ of the Côte d’Ivoire: A ban on the exportation of cocoa, banks banned from ‘cooperating’ with the regime of Laurent Gbagbo, a ban on the payment of the salaries of civil servants and soldiers, a freeze on the assets of individuals and national and private companies, restrictions on travel, just so many measures whose legality is at the very least doubtful … //  Continue Reading…

After more than a decade meeting with government officials and families in rural areas of the developing world, I have yet to encounter anyone who would discount the importance of land, or who would challenge the fact that landlessness is a severely disempowering condition for the rural poor.

It’s easy enough to grasp the concept that land is important, and that it’s especially important to rural families in the developing world. After all, most poor rural families that lack land of their own earn their living by working as day laborers on other people’s land, and land is a primary source of power for their employers. Landlessness and land insecurity, the lot of hundreds of millions of rural people worldwide, is a defining personal and social characteristic, greatly limiting their current options and future prospects.  Continue Reading…
