This video hosted bi David Icke is a must watch... you should check out his web site.
I can see society unravelling here before my very eyes. People are losing people skills. Today my wheelchair malfunctioned and as a test I sat there to see who would help... One guy in a scooter, then I called a friend, we asked someone for help.
Another situation, just the other daymy brother found a man laying on the sidewalk, beat-up and bleeding from his head. My brother watched as people just stepped over, walked around and ignored him. My brother waited until the ambulance came. What happened to helping out our fellow humanity.
If we only knew what was going on... It is really easy too see in this democracy we are not free.

Associated Press has found that Japan exposed thousands of its citizens to risk by failing to use radiation forecasts in the early days of its nuclear crisis.
The government predicted Karino Elementary School would be in the path of the plume emerging from the tsunami-hit Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant. But the forecasts never reached decision-makers and the school was not cleared out. Instead, it became a temporary evacuation centre.
Parents and others gathered in the playground of the school at the height of the nuclear crisis and many ate and cooked in the open contaminated air.
It's unclear how much radiation people were exposed to or if they will suffer health problems. But the breakdown may hold lessons for other countries because similar warning systems are used around the world. This was their first test in a major crisis.
Meanwhile on Tuesday, the Japanese government decided to lift evacuation advisories in some areas more than 20 kilometres from the damaged nuclear plant, opening the way for tens of thousands of people to return home.
Officials said the lifting will allow about 25,000 people covered by the advisories to return home in about a month.
The enormous earthquake and tsunami demolished cooling functions at the nuclear plant, causing three reactor cores to melt and triggering fires and explosions that spread large amounts of radioactive particles outside the complex.
More than 80,000 residents fled their homes after the disaster.
Officials at Tokyo Electric Power Co., the utility that operates the plant, and the government have said in recent weeks that the reactors have stabilized and the amount of radiation being released is now minimal, yet they are building protective domes over the reactors.
This sends a mixed message of the current state of reactor safety.
Just like the British Petroleum disaster that hit the Gulf of Mexico is no longer in the media, because it is no longer newsworthy. The same has happened to this story eventhough the effects will last decades.

When it comes to promising scientific results that deserve much more investigation, is this what we should expect?
"Both the National Cancer Institute and several pharmaceutical companies declined to pay for the research. Neither applicants nor funders discuss the reasons an application is turned down. But good guesses are the general shortage of funds and the concept tried in this experiment was too novel and, thus, too risky for consideration," says the Huffington Post.
This quote is in regards to a new leukemia treatment that is surprising the researchers behind its creation. The treatment is providing results beyond their wildest expectations.
It's virtually eradicated cancerous leukemia cells in the first three patients it's been tested on.
In two of the three patients the process completely destroyed the most common type of leukemia. In the third patient, the treatment seems to have reduced the cancerous cells by 70 per cent.
"Within three weeks, the tumors had been blown away, in a way that was much more violent than we ever expected," said senior author Carl June, MD.
The breakthrough uses patients' own T cells to fight off cancer. Researchers took the T cells of the patients, ran them through a vaccine production facility, and then placed them back in to the patients' bodies following chemotherapy.Finding a cure to cancer would mean a loss of billions of dollars being put into the economy, thousands of businesses would go broke.
Speaking of cancer, the food that companies produce cause cancer (hot dogs, aspartame etc...) Is there a conspiracy, or is this coincidence?

Interesting findings for Canadian employees and employers. Re: More expected from Canadian employees as large companies set bullish growth targets If you work for a major Canadian or American company in Canada, brace yourself. Your corporate leaders will be expecting more from you in the months and years ahead.According to a global survey of more than 1,600 senior decision makers at major corporations conducted by Hay Group, U.S. and Canadian corporate leaders have set bullish growth targets of 4.9 per cent this year, even though the North American economy is projected to grow only 2.8 per cent. By 2014, business leaders have annual growth targets of seven percent.Business leaders say they’re going to do it by increasing employee productivity. Three quarters of the senior decision makers in Canada said they would be asking more from their employees this year, even though 40 percent believe their employees are too stretched to deliver on current business objectives.A news release with more detailed survey findings below.
"Hay Group Study Finds Canadian and US CEOs Target Employee Performance to Achieve Bullish Growth in 2011"
Performance Management Systems are Broken
TORONTO, ONTARIO– CEOs have set bullish growth targets for 2011 and are demanding significant increases in workforce productivity to meet them, according to new research from global management consultancy Hay Group.
According to the study, firms globally are targeting 5.4 per cent growth for 2011, targets that, in most cases, outstrip International Monetary Fund (IMF) local economic forecasts for GDP growth (see table below).
In both the U.S. and Canada, firms are targeting 4.9 per cent growth for 2011. While this is less than growth targets globally, it is well above the North American economic growth forecast of 2.8 per cent reported in the latest figures released by the IMF. They are expecting even more in the years ahead. By 2014, Canadian and U.S. business leaders say they are targetting seven per cent annual growth.
“Business leaders in Canada and the U.S. face a significant challenge as they work to achieve aggressive growth targets with a workforce that is already stretched thin,” said Mark Hundert, Toronto-based National Director of Hay Group. “To fully harness the power of their employees, executives need to take a fresh look at how performance is really managed to ensure people are enabled to drive organizational performance.”
Hay Group’s report about Strategic performance management is based on research among 1,660 senior decision-makers in large firms across more than 30 countries worldwide. North America, senior decision makers at 50 Canadian companies and 250 American companies participated in Hay Group’s research.
The performance challenge
A strong majority of North American business leaders – two-thirds (66 per cent) in the U.S. and three quarters (74 per cent) in Canada – admit their growth targets present a challenge. To achieve these growth targets, business leaders in both countries say they need to increase productivity by six per cent on average, with the majority (69 per cent in the U.S. and 76 per cent in Canada) intending to ask even more from their workforces.
Meanwhile, 40 per cent of senior decision makers in Canada fear their employees are already too stretched to deliver current business objectives.
“In response to the economic downturn, North American business leaders focused solidly on controlling costs,” added Hundert. “Now, as they look to improve business results and get more discretionary effort from their people, it’s time for them to shift their focus to performance management.”
Spotlight on performance
Canadian business leaders understand that improving individual performance is critical to achieving their growth targets. The majority (78 per cent) plan to implement more rigorous individual performance management this year.
The vast majority of Canadian business leaders (90 per cent) also agree that individual performance management is an important driver of overall business performance. And more than half (60 per cent) believe it makes a difference to the bottom line.
Performance mismanagement
However, most companies don’t practice what they preach -- less than a quarter of firms align their performance management system to company strategy (22 per cent).
At the same time, while the majority of Canadian business leaders (96 per cent) stress that culture has an important influence on the effectiveness of performance management, only a quarter (24 per cent) of firms align their performance management strategy to company culture and values.
And despite this clear misalignment in performance management programs, 58 per cent of Canadian business leaders admit to spending 10 per cent or less of their time managing poor performance.
“Businesses that want to improve performance management don’t need to throw out their existing systems,” added Hundert. “Rather, they need to think about how to enhance their current system by having leaders provide more direction and clarity, so that employees know how their efforts tie into the broader strategy and impact results. It’s also critical that leaders create a culture of dialogue throughout the year, rather than relying on a once-a-year conversation about performance. However, the power of an organization’s culture as a whole should not be underestimated.”
One third of Canadian business leaders believe managers in their firms fail to use their performance management process effectively (34 per cent) and do not actively support the performance management process (34 per cent). A quarter describe their process as a ‘tick-box exercise’ (26 per cent).
“Most organizations view performance management as a process for controlling compensation. Leading organizations treat it as a management process that empowers employees to drive performance and creates discretionary effort.”

This was written by a woman born in Egypt as a Muslim. This is not hearsay, and it will scare you. Make sure you read the paragraph (in red) towards the end.
Joys of Muslim Women
by Nonie Darwish
In the Muslim faith, a Muslim man can marry a child as young as 1 year old and have sexual intimacy with this child, consummating the marriage by 9. The dowry is given to the family in exchange for the woman (who becomes his slave) and for the purchase of the private parts of the woman, to use her as a toy.
Even though a woman is abused, she cannot obtain a divorce. To prove rape, the woman must have (4) male witnesses. Often after a woman has been raped, she is returned to her family and the family must return the dowry.
The family has the right to execute her (an honor killing) to restore the honor of the family. Husbands can beat their wives 'at will' and the man does not have to say why he has beaten her. The husband is permitted to have 4 wives and a temporary wife for an hour (prostitute) at his discretion. The Shariah Muslim law controls the private as well as the public life of the woman.
In the Western World (America) Muslim men are starting to demand Shariah Law so the wife cannot obtain a divorce and he can have full and control of her. It is amazing and alarming how many of our sisters and daughters attending American Universities are now marrying Muslim men and submitting themselves and their children unsuspectingly to the Shariah law. By passing this on, enlightened American women may avoid becoming a slave under Shariah Law.
Ripping the West in Two. Author and lecturer Nonie Darwish says the goal of radical Islamists is to impose Shariah law on the world, ripping Western law and liberty in two.
She recently authored the book, Cruel and Usual Punishment: The Terrifying Global Implications of Islamic Law.
Darwish was born in Cairo and spent her childhood in Egypt and Gaza before immigrating to America in 1978, when she was eight years old. Her father died while leading covert attacks on Israel. He was a high-ranking Egyptian military officer stationed with his family in Gaza.
When he died, he was considered a "shahid," a martyr for jihad. His posthumous status earned Nonie and her family an elevated position in Muslim society.
But Darwish developed a skeptical eye at an early age. She questioned her own Muslim culture and upbringing. She converted to Christianity after hearing a Christian preacher on television.
In her latest book, Darwish warns about creeping sharia law - what it is, what it means, and how it is manifested in Islamic countries. For the West, she says radical Islamists are working to impose sharia on the world. If that happens, Western civilization will be destroyed. Westerners generally assume all religions encourage a respect for the dignity of each individual. Islamic law (Sharia) teaches that non-Muslims should be subjugated or killed in this world.
Peace and prosperity for one's children is not as important as assuring that Islamic law rules everywhere in the Middle East and eventually in the world.
While Westerners tend to think that all religions encourage some form of the golden rule, Sharia teaches two systems of ethics - one for Muslims and another for non-Muslims. Building on tribal practices of the seventh century, Sharia encourages the side of humanity that wants to take from and subjugate others.
While Westerners tend to think in terms of religious people developing a personal understanding of and relationship with God, Sharia advocates executing people who ask difficult questions that could be interpreted as criticism.
It's hard to imagine, that in this day and age, Islamic scholars agree that
those who criticize Islam or choose to stop being Muslim should b executed. Sadly, while talk of an Islamic reformationist common and even assumed by many in the West, such murmurings in the Middle East are silenced through intimidation.
While Westerners are accustomed to an increase in religious tolerance over time, Darwish explains how petro dollars are being used to grow an extremely intolerant form of political Islam in her native Egypt and elsewhere.
In twenty years there will be enough Muslim voters in the U.S. to elect the President by themselves! Rest assured they will do so... You can look at how they have taken over several towns in the USA... Dearborn Mich. is one... and there are others...I think everyone in the U.S. should be required to read this, but with the ACLU, there is no way this will be widely publicized, unless each of us sends it on!
It is too bad that so many are disillusioned with life and Christianity to accept Muslims as peaceful... Some may be but they have an army that is willing to shed blood in the name of Islam... the peaceful support the warriors with their finances and own kind of patriotism to their religion. While America is getting rid of Christianity from all public sites and erasing God from the lives of children the Muslims are planning a great jihad on America.
This is your chance to make a difference...! Pass it on to your email list or at least those you think will listen...
WHEN YOU LOOK AT THIS, THINK OF YOUR OWN DAUGHTERS, GRANDDAUGHTERS AND NIECES
These are pictures not shown on American TV or in American Newspapers, but were forwarded by a Canadian who thought All Christians ought to know.
HOW VERY SAD! - Read all the way to the bottom
Mass Muslim Marriage in Gaza
Poor kids - what a terrible fate to be born as a girl in a Muslim country
Muhammed married a six year old bride. But Islam has evolved in 1500 years. In Hamas land, in 2009, the brides are almost seven.
Mass Muslim Marriage in Gaza
450 Grooms Wed GIRLS under Ten in Gaza
by Paul L. Williams, Ph.D.
Thelastcrusade.org
A gala event has occurred in Gaza.
Hamas sponsored a mass wedding for four hundred and fifty couples.
Most of the grooms were in their mid to late twenties; most of brides were under ten.
Muslim dignitaries including Mahmud Zahar, a leader of Hamas, were on hand to congratulate the couples who took part in the carefully staged celebration.
We are saying to the world and to America that you cannot deny us joy and happiness, Zahar told the grooms, all of whom were dressed in identical black suits and hailed from the nearby Jabalia refugee camp.
Each groom received a gift of 500 dollars from Hamas.
The pre-pubescent girls, dressed in white gowns and adorned with garish make-up, received bridal bouquets.
We are presenting this wedding as a gift to our people who stood firm in the face of the siege and the war, Local Hamas strongman Ibrahim Salaf said in a speech.
The wedding photos tell the rest of the sordid tale.
The International Center for Research on Women now estimates that there are 51 million child brides now living on planet earth and almost all in Muslim countries.
Twenty-nine percent of these child brides are regularly beaten and molested by their husbands in Egypt; twenty six percent receive similar abuse in Jordan.
Every year, three million Muslim girls are subjected to genital mutilation, according to UNICEF. This practice has not been outlawed in many parts of America.
Why would anyone think that we should be at war with such nice, peaceful Muslims? You need to forward this one to everyone! These pictures tell it all! Muslims have stated that England will be the first country they take over!

Thousands of people gather in Toronto streets to protest the G20, it's huge price tag and to bring forward dozens of causes which people feel need to be brought to the attention of our world leaders.
The Ontario Coalition Against Poverty rallied at Allen Gardens on Saturday with a strong platform. Toronto needs that billion dollars spent right here, it should be spent on things like affordable housing, feeding the homeless, cleaning-up our streets and improving our infrastructure.
"We have never seen that level of wanton criminality and vandalism and destruction on our streets," Toronto police chief Bill Blair said during news conference. "There are limits to free speech, and these limits really end when it infringes on the rights and the safety of others." Perhaps people are responding this way because they're rights have been infringed upon as well.
Not being able to walk freely on our own city streets is an invasion of our rights. Then again it is not our rights that are absolute, but the government that we elect that makes those rights for us. Mr. Miller thee are no limits to free speech unless it's a hate crime, because speech itself can not infringe upon the safety of others. Words cause no physical harm.
It's very appropriate that John Curtis, a columnist for the examiner.ca, titled his column Toronto's G20 Tale of Two Cities . Toronto's claim to fame is our 'friendly nature.' After this weekend the world make think otherwise, because they are seeing otherwise. It's time a message like this was sent to government as too many issues are being swept under the proverbial rug.
The Globe & Mail reports that court rooms at 2201 Finch Avenue are backed-up because of the 562 arrests that have taken place. I'm sure all will be treated fairly to the fullest extent of the law.
On September 22 the 5th panel discussion is taking place at the Frasier Institute, the topic is A New Direction for Toronto. Special guest speakers include: Fred McMahon VP, International Research, Fraser
Institute, City Councillor Karen Stintz Ward 16,City Councillor Adam Vaughan Ward 20,Catherine Swift President & CEO, CFIB. It should be an interesting discussion since many believe Toronto is heading for the worst. To register click here.

Since the cost of prescription drugs is so outrageous, It is important that people are aware of this.
It pays to shop around! This helps to solve the mystery as to
why
they can afford to put a Walgreen's on every corner. On Monday
night,
Steve Wilson, an investigative reporter for Channel 7 News in
Detroit , did a
story on generic drug prices gouging by pharmacies. He found
in his
investigation that some of these generic drugs were marked up
as much
as 3,000% or more. So often we blame the drug companies for
the high
cost of drugs, and usually rightfully so. But in this case,
the fault
clearly lies with the pharmacies themselves. For example if
you had
to buy a prescription drug, and bought the name brand, you
might pay
$100 for 100 pills.
The pharmacist might tell you that if you get the generic
equivalent,
they would only cost $80, making you think you are saving $20.
What
the pharmacist is not telling you is that those 100 generic
pills may
have only cost him $10!
At the end of the report, one of the anchors asked Mr. Wilson
whether
or not there were any pharmacies that did not adhere to this
practice, and he said that Costco consistently charged little
over
their cost for the generic drugs.

A friend of mine told me that he had recently had his car broken into in the Dundas and Jarvis area, his wallet was stolen from the glove box. A few days later he had a run in with the police. He noticed an officer following him in his car, so he stopped and asked the officer if there was a problem. The officer asked him for his papers and he explained to the officer his wallet was stolen out of his car; he did not have his licence. The officer asked for his insurance, he presented photocopies and the long portion; he did not have the portion that went in his wallet. The officer went so far as to call his insurance company, of course only to confirm what he said was true. He then had the audacity to write him a ticket for more than $200 without even offering him time to appear at the station to show his papers, 24 hours is usually standard.
The best part of this story is that when my friend had his car broken into he made a report at the police station, but when the officer pulled him over he said that there was no record of such a report being made.
In the grand scheme of things who do our police really Serve & Protect?
There are many other things they could be doing that may be seen as more produtive. Maybe we need our own local francise of Dog the Bounty Hunter.
