Melons now a Monsanto “invention” | no patents on seeds. US corporation awarded a European patent on conventionally bred melons. Munich, 17.5.2011 Recent research conducted by the coalition No Patents on Seeds! Shows that in May 2011, the US corporation Monsanto was awarded a European patent on conventionally bred melons (EP 1 962 578). Melons have a natural resistance to certain plant viruses. It is especially evident in melons grown in India. Using conventional breeding methods, this type of resistance was introduced to other melons and has now been patented as a Monsanto “invention”. “This patent is an abuse of patent law because it is not a real invention. In a precedent decision, the European Patent Office (EPO) decided in December 2010, that conventional breeding could not be patented (G2/07 and G1/08). The actual plant disease, Cucurbit yellow stunting disorder virus (CYSDV), has been spreading through North America, Europe and North Africa for several years. The coalition No Patents on Seeds!

(NaturalNews) Codeath (sorry, I meant Codex) Alimentarius, latin for Food Code, is a very misunderstood organization that most people (including nearly all U.S. congressmen) have never heard of, never mind understand the true reality of this extremely powerful trade organization. From the official Codex website (www.codexalimentarius.net) the altruistic purpose of this commission is in "protecting health of the consumers and ensuring fair trade practices in the food trade, and promoting coordination of all food standards work undertaken by international governmental and non-governmental organizations".
Codex is a joint venture regulated by the Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO) and World Health Organization (WHO). Brief History of Codex The history of Codex began in 1893 when the Austria-Hungarian empire decided it needed a specific set of guidelines by which the courts could rule on cases dealing with food [1]. Codex Now The Real Threat The Door is Open for Codex In 1995, the U.S. Scientists push to implement edible RFID tracking chips in food. (NaturalNews) It will monitor your calorie intake, show from where your food was sourced, and even let you know when the food in your fridge is about to go bad -- these are some of the enticing claims made by the developers of a new system that embeds edible radio frequency identification (RFID) chips directly into food. Its creators insist the technology will revolutionize the way humans eat for the better, but critical-thinking onlookers will recognize the ploy as just another way to track and control human behavior.
Developed by Hannes Harms from the Royal College of Art in London, the "NutriSmart" system is based on the idea that RFID wafers injected directly into food can help better track the food supply chain, further automate the supermarket shopping experience, and simplify the eating experience by programming data into food so that humans essentially do not have to think about what they aredoing. Sources for this story include: The NutriSmart system would put RFIDs into your food for enhanced information. (PhysOrg.com) -- RFID, short for Radio Frequency ID, tags have found their way into a wide variety of applications. These pellets, which are often roughly the same size as a grain of rice, can help us to be reunited with our lost pets, keep towels inside the hotel, and keep big box stores shipping the right boxes to the right places at the right time.
In time you may even find them inside your own stomach. At least they will be there if Hannes Harms has anything to say about it. Mr. The system would be able to not only give you complete nutritional data on the food that you are about to consume, but able to tell you the entire supply chain behind everything that you are putting into your mouth. A properly equipped refrigerator would be able to give the user a look at everything that the box contains, and when it is going to go bad. No word yet about what happens to the tags when you are finished with them. Explore further: Portable RFID reader in a Wristwatch.
Texas orders STD vaccine for all girls - Health - Kids and parenting. AUSTIN, Texas — Bypassing the Legislature altogether, Republican Gov. Rick Perry issued an order Friday making Texas the first state to require that schoolgirls get vaccinated against the sexually transmitted virus that causes cervical cancer. By employing an executive order, Perry sidestepped opposition in the Legislature from conservatives and parents’ rights groups who fear such a requirement would condone premarital sex and interfere with the way Texans raise their children. Beginning in September 2008, girls entering the sixth grade — meaning, generally, girls ages 11 and 12 — will have to receive Gardasil, Merck & Co.’s new vaccine against strains of the human papillomavirus, or HPV. Perry also directed state health authorities to make the vaccine available free to girls 9 to 18 who are uninsured or whose insurance does not cover vaccines.
“The HPV vaccine provides us with an incredible opportunity to effectively target and prevent cervical cancer,” Perry said. The real dirt: City squashes front yard veggie plot.

PART 1 Restricting Our Freedoms - Shawn Buckley About Bill C-6 (Now Bill C-36) Bee Pollen, Cinnamon, And Many Other NHP'S No Longer Being Sold In Canada | Locals Supporting Locals. Health Canada is continuing to block natural health products from hitting Canadian shelves. In there most recent move a major NHP manufacturer has been forced to discontinue 53 safe, popular NHPs. Including Bee Pollen, Zinc, GABA, Resveratrol, Grapeseed extract, cinnamon, boron, Gaba, B12, and boswellia. When the regulations started in 2004, Health Canada classified NHPs as “DRUGS”. This meant that there were now two classes of drugs: synthetic pharmaceuticals, which are patentable, and NHPs, (vitamins, minerals, herbs, probiotics, etc.)
Within three years, this requirement had eliminated well over 20,000 imported American products from Canada, because their makers couldn’t justify the cost or hassle. American made NHP's that are safe and very effective are slowly being blocked from the small Canadian market. It is a calm and collected way for Codex Alimentarius to be phased into Canada.

Canada Passes Bill C-36 To Finalize The Destruction of Health Freedom in North America. Canada Passes Bill C-36 To Finalize The Destruction of Health Freedom in North America Just two weeks after the United States passed the most restrictive legislation against the health freedom of Americans (the FDA Food Safety Modernization Act (S.510)), its Canadian counterpart bill C-36, will now receive Royal assent and become law after a vote of 50 to 36 in the Senate. The unconstitutional legislation was no stranger in the Senate. Previous bills C-51, C-52, and C-6 were all squashed never reaching final reading status. Bill C-6 effectively died during the prorogation of Parliament earlier this year and was reincarnated as bill C-36 this past summer.
Loyal Canadian and Senator, Joseph A. Day recently issued this statement via email addressed to concerned citizens: It is with regret that I inform you that Bill C-36 was passed in the Senate chamber yesterday evening. A sample of the unconstitutional restrictions included in bill C-36 include: 1 of 2 - Shawn Buckley interview by Fanny Kiefer. Canada wide anti Bill C-36 rally. Terry Wilson , Posted in bill c-36 , canada , event , facebook , rally , wide , 23 Comments Bill C-36 passed on December 13 2010. This bill allows foreign governments and private foreign corporations to dictate what Canadian consumer products will be pulled from the shelves.
It also totally undermines what once was the rule of law for this country. Health Canada inspectors can search and seize without warrant, and hold property for as long as they see fit (at expense of the owner), and they do not even need to have any... suspicion of a crime or any evidence of one to do so. So are Canadians going to just sit back and take this? I say hell NO!! The time to draw your line in the sand is now!
I am not suggesting a war of revolution, but rather a peaceful stand against tyranny. Help us in this infowar. Lets get out there and make our voices heard!!!

Action Alert—Now the FDA Is Going After Vitamin C!
The FDA has just notified one pharmacy that it will no longer be allowed to manufacture or distribute injectable vitamin C—despite its remarkable power to heal conditions that conventional medicine can’t touch. Please help reverse this outrageous decision! Let’s get this straight. The government acknowledges the risk of a worldwide flu pandemic. It acknowledges that conventional drugs cannot cure big viruses-like the mononucleosis and hepatitis viruses, many influenza viruses, and many others.
It acknowledges that many bacteria have become resistant to antibiotics and are killing increasing thousands. It acknowledges the risk of a worldwide drug-resistant TB pandemic. Despite acknowledging all this, it now insists on wiping out one of the best potential treatments for these conditions and for certain cancers as well. By the way, here is what is not safe. The government, instead of banning intravenous vitamin C, should instead be supporting research into it.

Mike Adams Natural News October 22, 2009 In working to protect the business interests of vaccine manufactures, both the FDA and FTC have declared all-out war against any products that might offer consumers options other than vaccines.
This week, that war against natural remedies reached the shores of Dr. Andrew Weil, who is perhaps the best-known alternative medicine doctor in America. In an intimidating, threatening letter jointly issued by the FTC and the FDA, these rogue government agencies threatened Dr. Weil with criminal prosecution for making true statements about his immune-boosting formula such as, “Astragalus … is … used traditionally to ward off colds and flu, and has demonstrated both antiviral and immune-boosting effects in scientific investigation.”
This statement, although scientifically valid and true, is a threat to the profits of the vaccine industry, and so Dr. You can review the FTC threats against Dr. Some of the threats leveled against Dr. . • Forcing Dr. Mary K. Feds take control of B.C.’s aquaculture industry | Canadian Manufacturing. Vancouver – B.C.’s aquaculture industry is now in the hands of the federal government. Gail Shea, the federal fisheries minister, and Ben Stewart, the provincial minister of agriculture, were in Vancouver earlier this month to sign a memorandum of understanding between the provincial and federal governments. B.C.’s provincial government had responsibility for salmon farms and ocean aquaculture until a landmark B.C. Supreme Court ruling in February 2009 forced the transfer to the federal government.
The official transfer date was Dec. 18, 2010. The federal government is promising more regulations, transparency and oversight of the controversial salmon farming business. The shift will see Ottawa in control of the cultivation of fish, enforcement of new Pacific aquaculture regulations and the conditions of licensing for fish farms. The BCSFA had provided feedback into the Pacific Aquaculture Regulations during the public consultation period.
