The mere mention of consuming apple seeds, cherry pits, apricot seeds, or bitter almonds tends to cause almost panic attacks or angry reactions in some. Why? Cyanide is in them. But this concern is ballooned out of proportion.

As a rumor based on too little knowledge, their concern is understandable. All you have to do is Google cyanide alongside any of the foods mentioned above and you’ll get a plethora of articles that all support the cyanide dangers from those seeds and nuts.   Continue reading “An Argument for Consuming Apricot Seeds: MisInformation is Endangering an Inexpensive Cancer Therapy”

I have yet to meet a Physician that will sign this form now downloaded by hundreds of parents. The reason they won’t sign is two-fold: First, they do not want to place themselves in a vulnerable position of being negligent for not providing informed consent to thousands of other parents; and second, many of them realize after their own extensive research that the risks far outweigh any benefits when it comes to vaccination.   Continue reading “You Want To Vaccinate My Child?

A legal team for the Susan B. Anthony List is asking the U.S. Supreme Court to review Ohio’s “false statement” law that when applied to political speech and elections, gives bureaucrats the authority to determine what is true.

As WND reported, a federal judge sided with the Susan B. Anthony List in its two-year long free speech battle with a former congressman who alleged the organization cost him his job and “loss of livelihood” when it educated constituents on his voting record.   Continue reading “They’re Here: Election Speech Cops”

Critics charge that an aggressive NSA purge of 90 percent of its system administrators—in an apparent attempt to prevent the next Edward Snowden from having access to secret information—is evidence that the agency seeks to hide the truth about spying from the public and remove the roll of human conscience from the agency, instead of curbing spying in response to mass anger.

“It would be nice if they reduced the amount of information they are collecting on people by 90 percent,” Dave Maass, spokesperson for the Electronic Frontier Foundation, told Common Dreams.   Continue reading “NSA to Can 90% of Admins to ‘Purge Potential Whistleblowers’”

A Texas-based encrypted email service recently revealed to be used by Edward Snowden – Lavabit – announced yesterday it was shutting itself down in order to avoid complying with what it perceives as unjust secret US court orders to provide government access to its users’ content. “After significant soul searching, I have decided to suspend operations,” the company’s founder, Ladar Levinson, wrote in a statement to users posted on the front page of its website. He said the US directive forced on his company “a difficult decision: to become complicit in crimes against the American people or walk away from nearly ten years of hard work by shutting down Lavabit.” He chose the latter.   Continue reading “Lavabit’s Brave Stand: Email Service Shuts Down”

A new provision in Section 501 of the Internal Revenue Code, which takes effect under Obamacare, sets new standards of review and installs new financial penalties for tax-exempt charitable hospitals, which devote a minimum amount of their expenses to treat uninsured poor people. Approximately 60 percent of American hospitals are currently nonprofit.   Continue reading “Obamacare installs new scrutiny, fines for charitable hospitals that treat uninsured people”

Back to school time means there won’t be any more daily cries of, “I’m booooooored!”  It means the end of those impromptu trips to the beach or the pool. It means that your house will be a little tidier, you will get a little more done, and your kids will get to see friends that they haven’t seen since the school doors closed at the beginning of the summer.

It also means that it’s time for mom and dad to spend some money.   Continue reading “Back to School on a Budget”

The Economic Collapse – by Michael Snyder

How would America ever survive without the central planners in the Obama administration and at the Federal Reserve?  What in the world would we do if there was no income tax and no IRS?  Could the U.S. economy possibly keep from collapsing under such circumstances?  The mainstream media would have us believe that unless we have someone “to pull the levers” our economy would descend into utter chaos, but the truth is that the best period of economic growth in U.S. history occurred during a time when there was no income tax and no Federal Reserve.    Continue reading “During The Best Period Of Economic Growth In U.S. History There Was No Income Tax And No Federal Reserve”
