Apricot Seeds & Cancer Foolishly Overlooked - See this Article!

 Apricot Seeds are a possible cure for some cancers but overlooked because of an absurd knee jerk reaction to traces of cyanide in the seeds.  For centuries people have eaten the seeds of many fruits containing cyanide.  Please see the article:

Humble opinion - Treason against the Constitution started in 1934

Federal assault on the 2nd Amendment and weapons in the United States did not begin until 1934.  The nation had survived 158 years just fine till then. 

"Rule of Law" a term that should be used with wisdom.

The term "Rule of Law", modern terminology that means nothing and every thing.  In reality Communist, Socialist, Nazi Regimes, Tyrannical Kingdoms, Tyrannical Dictators all had or have "Rule of Law".  Is that what you want?  Laws can and do become a yoke of burden and enslave.  I am not calling for an absence of law rather minimal and rational laws for a free society.  Freedom does not come with out risk.  It can be argued - you are not free if forced to live in a societal cocoon where government determines what you do, think and say.  You believe this Rule of Law will prevent "evil" from rising to the surface.  They use such mechanisms to rise.  Marshall Law while some times necessary is an ideal method for "evil" to take control.  Authority is concentrated into the hands of the few from where the power grab takes place.  Be wise when putting the Rule of Law on a pedestal.

Myth About Salt! Excerpt from Men's Health

 The Truth Behind 5 Food Myths

By: Alan Aragon, M.S.- 

Myth #5: "Salt causes high blood pressure and should be avoided."

The origin: In the 1940s, a Duke University researcher named Walter Kempner, M.D., became famous for using salt restriction to treat people with high blood pressure. Later, studies confirmed that reducing salt could help reduce hypertension.

What science really shows: Large-scale scientific reviews have determined there's no reason for people with normal blood pressure to restrict their sodium intake. Now, if you already have high blood pressure, you may be "salt sensitive." As a result, reducing the amount of salt you eat could be helpful.

However, it's been known for the past 20 years that people with high blood pressure who don't want to lower their salt intake can simply consume more potassium-containing foods. Why? Because it's really the balance of the two minerals that matters. In fact, Dutch researchers determined that a low potassium intake has the same impact on your blood pressure as high salt consumption does. And it turns out, the average guy consumes 3,100 milligrams (mg) of potassium a day—1,600 mg less than recommended.

The bottom line: Strive for a potassium-rich diet, which you can achieve by eating a wide variety of fruits, vegetables, and legumes. For instance, spinach, broccoli, bananas, white potatoes, and most types of beans each contain more than 400 mg potassium per serving.

Ban Sports in America for Children and Adults

 Digest edition:
This is the untold story of the horrendous toll sports have taken both physically and monetarily on the people of The United States.  In telling this story it is also a call to arms for a united front to ban these threats to our nation and it’s people.  You are about to be informed of the injuries, deaths, cost of care, cost of lost productivity from participation and second hand participation, spectating, of these sports.  There have been voices crying in the dark but now it is time for legislation banning the Menace to Society.

For several decades now sports for the youth and adults of America have boomed.  Examples: Sports such as Baseball, Basketball, Football, Hockey, Biking, Motor Sports, Base Jumping, Lacrosse, Soccer, Tennis, Track and Field, Skateboarding and more.  Never in our history have we seen such monstrous physical and financial devastation from the American people at play.  Sprains and strains, fractures, contusions, abrasions and concussions top the list of sports-related injuries.  About 1.5 million children end up in the emergency rooms every year with injuries at a cost of 1+ billion dollars.  Some 2-3 million adults also injure themselves.  Injuries in adults not only result in high medical cost and lost wages but also mean lost productivity inflicting financial damage to America’s Businesses and Government Workforce.  This does not include the 1000’s that die from participating and watching sports both amateur and professional in the United States.

The time has come to legislate away this drain on society.  The physical and financial calamity from 1^st hand and 2^nd hand sports needs to end.  The addiction has to stop.

Series - Countries that used Gun Control for Tyranny - Nazi Germany

The most foolish mistake we could possibly make would be to allow the subject races to possess arms.  History shows that all conquerors who have allowed their subject races to carry arms have prepared their own downfall by so doing.  Indeed, I would go so far as to say that the supply of arms to the underdogs is a sine qua non for the overthrow of any sovereignty.   So let’s not have any native militia or native police. German troops alone will bear the sole responsibility for the maintenance of law and order throughout the occupied Russian territories, and a system of military strong-points must be evolved to cover the entire occupied country.”
- Adolf Hitler, dinner talk on April 11, 1942

Series - Countries that used Gun Control for Tyranny - China

.  "China condemns U.S. gun ownership as human rights violation" China May 29, 2012.  Wonder what their motive could be?  They know the benefit of the population not being able to protect themselves as they murdered millions of their own.  Mass-murderer Mao, popular among anti-gun elites as an objet d’art, understood that “Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun.” Examiner 2012.
“All political power comes from the barrel of a gun.  The communist party must command all the guns, that way, no guns can ever be used to command the party.”
- Mao Tze Tung, Nov 6 1938
China established gun control in 1935.  From 1948 to 1952 10,076,000 political dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated in Kuomintang China, and by 1987 another 35,236,000 exterminations were carried out under the Communists.

Tidbit on the terms Right & Left in Politics

Politics truly is not Right - Left. That is a hold over from 1789 France King Louis 16th days, a convenience of terms.  The enlightened sat on one side and the status quo sat on the other of the king.  The US Congress picked up the practice.  Politics is more like a star chart with ideas all over the place.  Each party grabs ideas here and there, with it changing person to person within the party.  Parties over lap in ideals, pulling ideas from the same places as well as other. I grab from the area where Libertarians, Constitutionalist, Conservatives, Republicans do.  Truth is Democrats, Green and Liberals pull from some of these same areas as Libertarians, Conservatives, Republicans and Constitutionalist.

Nazis and Communist believe Government and police state are supreme but does that make them both left or right?  The big difference between the 2 - communist government controlled the business sector, nazi government only partially controlled it.  Just used a broad brush to make the point. The Right - Left denotation only gives ammunition to the 2 party system to fend off the rise of other parties and polarize the citizenry.  In recent years it has been very effective in reducing civil debate and finding common ground to govern.

A Tidbit about Diet and Atkins

People’s bodies digest food and absorb nutrition differently so what is good for Dick does not always work for Jane.  I have genetically high cholesterol to the point of doctors concern.  I don't personally buy the cholesterol to heart disease correlation to the point the experts do.  Here is a personally observed view of diet and cholesterol.  Atkins was a 5-year success for me.  As you can imagine my intake of fats and cholesterol were higher but still lower bad cholesterol counts and higher good cholesterol counts.  During that time my cholesterol was at its lowest, lower than taking Lipitor and a Dr's recommended diet.  A friend with diabetes also did Atkins resulting in his having lower cholesterol counts and being able to discontinue insulin. 

Previously I did a very low fat diet that resulted in higher bad cholesterol and lower good cholesterol.  

The body alters its digestion process with changes in diet. 

Many people misunderstand the Atkins diet only reciting the first step.  The steps are 1st a extremely low carb intake resulting in Ketosis for 2 weeks then 2^nd adding back in a marginal amounts of carbs while your weight loss is obtained.  3rd you add carbs till you can balance carb intake & maintaining your weight.  

 One should avoid grains and sugars, as they are very low in real nutrition and of coarse high in carbs.  Choose to add back in vegetables and fruits lower in carbs avoiding high carb/low real nutrition like sweet peas and corn.  On the fruit side, stay with the fruits high in nutrition and low in sugars such as blueberries, raspberries and so on. 

It does not work for every one.  The key to diet is finding one that works for you, both mentally and physically.  Any time you hear “It’s the Best Diet out there” keep both eyes wide open.
