Koreans Say U.S. MAD COW is Bull

Koreans Say U.S. MAD COW is Bull

South Koreans took to the streets. Young and old, people from all walks of life protested in huge numbers and in no uncertain terms, the lifting of the ban on proven dangerous U.S. beef. Some in the Korean government have bowed to the unfair and unrelenting pressures from the U.S. and the powerful cattlemen’s lobby.

80,000 Protest US Beef Imports in South Korea

In South Korea, public outcry over the lifting of a ban on US beef continues to bring the country to a standstill.

On Tuesday, more than 80,000 people took to the streets of Seoul to demand the ban be reimposed.

It was the largest rally so far since daily protests began more than a month ago. The entire South Korean cabinet has offered to resign in response to the protests. South Korean lawmaker Kang Gi-gap said the cabinet had been ignoring the people’s wishes.

Interview with the NotMilk Man

Interview with the NotMilk Man
Here is a little clip of an interview with Robert Cohen, the NotMilk Man

Great Compassion, Pets

Great Compassion, Pets


Great compassion is expressed by the love and attention focused upon dogs and cats by their “Masters”.

Assuming the role of pet keeper puts one in a Godly or godly roll. I have many times witnessed “pet people” go to extraordinary effort and expense to maximize the well-being of their furry loved one, and in a world deficient in love, it is gratifying to see.

The selectiveness of it though, hits me hard in the face as the [Selectively] compassionate caregivers unnecessarily (And Inexcusably) steal the life right out from under hundreds or thousands of “Other” of Gods furry and feathery children on behalf of Spot or Fluffy.

The double-standard, or Ethical Schizophrenia is as plane as the snout on Spot’s face but,.. Well at this point it becomes very confusing.

Clearly the “Compassion” expressed by all of the devoted care, for one’s favorite companion is negated many times over by the unjustifiable selfish selection process, and creates a ‘net deficit’ of the love that our troubled world so desperately needs more of.

As many of the lucky ones are rescue pets from humane society facilities it seems obvious that the well intentioned saviors are trying to maximize preservation of life and minimize euthanasia.

But the follow-through is a real killer.

The way that most pet rescuers care for the “Lucky One” means that the life of that “one” is at the expense of the lives of many. That is to say that by snatching Spot from the clutches of an impending “Humane” transition, and raising him in the usual way, many other equally deserving “Children” will be snuffed out, though not in a humane manner, and only after an unfairly abridged life of shameful mistreatment.

It is well to remember that true Humane-ness can not be selective.

Potluck, or Guess Who Else is Coming to Dinner

Potluck, or Guess Who Else is Coming to Dinner

What’s not to like about potlucks?

Many of my SAD (Standard American Diet) friends seem to have trouble understanding why some of my CAD (Compassion Affirming Diet) friends sometimes shy away from full participation in potluck functions.

Most CAD people that I know love to eat. Typically we very much appreciate the preparation, presentation, arrangement, color-play, aroma, texture, flavor etc. of a good meal, we even find it fulfilling to contemplate where all of the ingredients came from; the apples in the cobbler starting from a seed, growing into a tree, the tree sprouting fragrant blossoms, blossoms giving way to tiny sour apples, the growing apples drawing nutrients up through the structure of the tree, while swinging in the breeze, basking in the sun and bathing in the rain.

We think about, and give thanks for the nature-given orbs getting juicier and sweeter everyday until their weight demands picking. We are generally delighted at the beauty; aroma, color array and creativity displayed, and appreciate the care and laboring of love that brings such healthful layouts to the party.

The friendly, generous and well-meaning SAD folks in attendance generally offer a distinctly different type of presentation.

The first sensory experience that usually hits me when arriving at the party is a powerful and often nauseating olfactory sensation. This sensation immediately triggers a certain sadness.

Just as the scent of progressively rotting body parts that permeates the ‘common air’ near the meat counter in a supermarket, and most regrettably in many pseudo-natural food stores as well, sickens the sensitivities of the inhaler, so is the scent of ‘heat-treated’ cadavers on display at the party a bit challenging to handle even for the heartiest of plant eating folks who understand what is represented by the sometimes cleverly disguised meaty dishes.

It is well to keep in mind that the ‘scent’ or ‘smell’ results from actual physical particles of the stuff behind the glass or on the table coming into intimate contact with receptors in the scull. The scent of rotting flesh may be experienced as mildly offensive, horrendously objectionable, or even pleasurable, I am told, depending on the mindset, programming, culture affiliation or ‘source-knowledge’ of the person having the experience. So, while some, passing by the bloody counter/table will be powerfully repulsed, many will think nothing of it. It will, in fact smell just like the interior of the refrigerator at home.

But for the oblivious and the aware alike, there is no sensation of smell, no activation of the olfactory mechanism, unless, as stated, particles, millions of them, actually come into contact with living tissue in the head of the person doing the smelling. Along with the particles of flesh, blood and bone, Etc., are also millions of disease-producing microorganisms, mostly bacteria. Everyone breathing that air gets the little bugs, and takes them home, now circulating throughout the bloodstream, for free, like it or not… No purchase required.

Milk, and the many ill conditions it causes

Milk, and the many ill conditions it causes
~~~

I know MANY people, and have friends and family members who suffer from a range of health challenges which we have traced back to dietary mistakes sometimes far in the past, many times from using ‘foods’ that were supposed to be healthful or at least benign.
Maybe the most sinfully glaring example of a food (Loose use of the word) which was presented as GOOD by loving parents, relentless advertising and which was taught about and encouraged in schools and which was supplied, even forced upon children in school is Cow’s Milk and its various derivatives.

This nasty lie of a heavily infected and polluted JUNK FOOD has, since before I was born, been presented as an absolute essential food, while the truth is, that it is anything but, and is actually the opposite of its image.
This ‘milk thing’ is among the very biggest and most criminal scams ever forced down the throats of civilized Americans and Europeans.

With full support of governments charged with protecting the people, the unscrupulous corporate interests of the dairy industry have infiltrated medical institutions and educational facilities, and have created and maintained a complex culture of misinformation to disguise one of the most polluted and poisonous products as something not only healthful but essential.

It is heart-braking to remember the numerous examples of well meaning parents, coercing innocent, trusting children into drinking Cow’s Milk from a young age. Some were introduced to the foreign substance in the first year of life and had developed a perverted ‘taste’ for it that persisted long beyond the age when humans retain the enzymatic ability to digest even their own mother’s milk (16-24 months). Of course humans never did and never will have the ability to process, in a healthful way, the milk designed for an infant cow, even if it weren’t spiked with extra foreign hormones, all manor of infectious microbes born of filthy conditions and sickly, abused animals, high concentrations of agricultural chemicals and some of the most deleterious allergens in the environment, let alone in the food supply.

I can clearly remember some of the ingenious ways in which loving parents tricked or strong-armed children into swallowing the nasty stuff, always in the best interest of the kids:

Some parents put M ‘n’ Ms or chocolate chips in the glass, some poured sticky jelly in the bottom, and then carefully poured in the milk… The kids would have to drink the white poison to get the reward at the bottom of the glass. Sometimes the bribe of cookies ‘n’ milk would get the job done. And of course, the Cow’s Milk invasion also helped develop a whole new junk food category: chocolate syrup and super sweet cocoa drink mixes. These were often used to disguise the repulsive character of PUS-RICH Cow’s Milk enough to get the kids to enthusiastically chug it down….

Fatty, infectious, cross-species infant food + sugary Caffeine-like stimulating junk syrup = allergic, snotty, overweight, asthmatic, diabetic kids, troubled also with attention deficit, re-occurring ear infections, tonsillitis, chronic digestive and eliminative dysfunction, acne, Etc. sometimes growing into adulthood with exaggerated versions of the same maladies and additional ones to boot, thanks to milk.
Many people have retained their perverse, learned (Certainly not natural) association with Cow’s Milk into later life, even as the ‘quality’ of the commercial liquid has been further insulted through mass-production, chemical industry collusion, profit focused criminal activity and ever bolder lies.

It simply is a crying shame that kids trusted their parents. That backfired… Parents trusted their government and the schools, that backfired, and we all were brainwashed by sneaky advertising funded by criminals who invented a whole industry that makes no nutritional sense what-so-ever and serves no benevolent means at all. An entire multi-million dollar complex which reaps untold suffering on millions of animals, inexcusable sickness on people, and is a big part of the system more injurious to the environment than any other commercial interest in existence. This is the white slime that is supposed to do a body good… Take another look.
Take another look, see beyond the ‘White Lie’ and consider boycotting commercial Cow’s Milk and all the associated junk food (Un-Food). By refusing to be part of this ‘White Lie’ you will help the whole planet, all of her people and billions of ‘other’ animals to much happier and healthier.

Casein [Milk] is the most relevant chemical carcinogen ever discovered.
~Dr. T. Colin Campbell

Right now there are millions of human infants drinking poison Cow’s Milk through rubber nipples and millions of healthy young children being poisoned for life at the insistence of well meaning parents and teachers ill informed by an industry that buys government agencies, lies in the most intelligence-insulting ways, with the help of idolized celebrities, though: TV, radio, print media, internet, and through ‘Educational Material’ supplied BY THE INDUSTRY through the schools. And all of this disease producing whitewash is heavily subsidized by our government. The ‘Milk Crooks’ are getting rich from what sickens the people and pollutes the Earth… The pushers who are, right now hooking our kids on what can be a life long drug addiction can be stopped using the same system they exploit, supply and demand. When demand diminishes, supply dries-up.

Here’s something that is really wrong:

MILK MATH

MILK MATH…

Some revealing milk related numbers

THE ‘WHOLESOME’ PROTEIN MYTH:
87% of milk is water. So milk drinkers are paying, maybe a buck-a-quart for mostly water. But it’s the other 13 percent, no matter what the cost, that is worrisome and even more costly than you can probably imagine. Broken down into its basic groups… WHOLE MILK is: WATER (87%), FAT (3.7%), CARBOHYDRATE / LACTOSE (4.9%), FIBER (0%), CASEIN AND OTHER PROTEIN (3.5) (note: that is 3.7% “milk-fat” which includes the 87% water.)

80% of the protein in milk is casein. Casein is a powerful binder… a polymer used to make plastics. It is an adhesive that is better used to affix labels to mayonnaise jars then eat or drink. It is sneaked into thousands of processed foods as a binder… It appears on the label as “Whatever” caseinate. Casein is a powerful allergen… it activates histamine which creates lots of mucus.

It’s not just about gobs of mucus, indeed, cows’ milk protein may be the single most significant chemical carcinogen to which humans are exposed, to say nothing of its other negative effects on health.

Sound science clearly demonstrates that: animal protein, when consumed in excess of protein requirements, is one of the most toxic nutrients of all. Risk for disease goes up dramatically when even a little animal protein is added to the diet.

Dr. T. Colin Campbell states: “casein as an animal protein promotes cancer, in spades. [ ] casein is the most relevant chemical carcinogen ever discovered”.

T. Colin Campbell, is Professor Emeritus of Nutritional Biochemistry at Cornell University

Many studies demonstrate that diets high in protein (Especially Animal Protein) lower bone density and increase rick of fracture.

CALCIUM, MILK AND BONE DENSITY:
Fact: Around the world, the higher the dairy intake, the higher the osteoporosis rates.
Osteoporosis is not a calcium deficiency disease! Bone is composed of at least a dozen minerals, going ape over calcium actually increases the risk and severity of osteoporosis.
Think you’re absorbing usable calcium from cow’s milk? Nutritionists consider the optimum ratio (For calcium absorption) of Calcium to Magnesium to be 1:2. The ratio in milk at 10:1is 20 times to the negative, and would seem to be one of the reasons that; the more milk people drink /eat, the ‘Swiss- cheesy-er’ their bones become. So, as a bone-density promoting agent, cows’ milk fails profoundly when used by humans. Unabsorbed (Cellular- ly) calcium does cause great harm however, accumulating as micro-gravel in joints and becoming part of the cross-linkage ‘plaster’ which is so good at clogging arteries.

BACTERIA:
Cow’s milk is allowed to have feces in it
and always does. This is one of the sources of bacteria that milk drinkers drink. Milk is typically pasteurized for only 15 seconds at 162 degrees Fahrenheit. To sanitize water we are told to boil it (190-212 degrees F) for 20 minutes. Curious.
Keep in mind that at room temperature the number of bacteria in milk DOUBLE around every 20 minutes. As you know, milk turns rotten (more rotten) very quickly. While pasteurization lowers the bacterial count (Good bugs and bad bugs) it totally wipes out all the enzymes which would help to digest the milky mess.

PUS:
ONE cubic centimeter (cc) of commercial cow’s milk is allowed to have up to 750,000 somatic cells (“PUS” cells) and 20,000 live bacteria before it is kept off the market.

That amounts to a whopping 20 million live (And rapidly replicating) squiggly bacteria and up to 750 MILLION pus cells per liter / quart.

Or:
1 cup = 236.5882cc 177,441,150 pus cells and 4,731,600 bacteria.

Or:
24 oz (3 glasses) (the “recommended” daily intake) = 532,323,450 pus cells and 14,220,000 bacteria The EU and the Canadians allow for a ‘tangy’ 400,000,000 pus cells per liter.

Based on allowable (And common) counts of white blood cells and bacteria, that famous movie, recording or sports star in the commercials and magazine adds is wearing a white mustache containing 300,000 white blood cells and 25,000 bacteria.
