A whopping 96% of Tyson and 43% of Perdue chickens have beenfound to contain the dangerous drug-resistant bacteriaCampylobacter while only 5% Eberle and 13% of Bell and Evanschickens showed signs of the presence of the bacterium.

According to researchers at the Johns Hopkins BloombergSchool of Public Health, this is likely due to the use ofantibiotics in the raising of the chickens. Campylobacter isresponsible for an estimated 2.4 million cases of foodpoisoning a year in the US.

Producers claim that the use of antibiotics makes theirproducts safer, but the truth is the opposite, which hasbeen amply proved by numerous scientific studies that showthat the use of antibiotics in food production fosters thespread of drug-resistant bacteria.

Leonore Sweet, author of How to Photograph the Paranormal, writes: Scientists are actually starting to validate what orb photographers have been saying for a decade. The Hessdalen Project in Norway is a group of physicists and engineers who have been scientifically studying balls of light for about ten years. As of 2002, these scientists have determined the lights are thermal plasmas that constantly change shape and can eject smaller light balls. They can produce light with a power of up to 100 KW. They can pulsate and blink irregularly even when they are not moving. They turn on and off constantly and their movement is jerky. The scientists dont credit them with intelligent behavior as such, but they do say they are unpredictable and highly elusive.read more

The USDA may approve a genetically-modified strain of ricethat contains human genes. Rice is self pollinating, soit will not cross pollinate with rice plants in nearbyfields, but it will mix with other varieties during storageand handling, meaning that it may soon become the onlystrain of rice available in areas where it is grown. Thishas happened with StarLink corn in Mexico and is alsohappening in agricultural areas of the U.S., meaning thatvery soon, it may be impossible to buy organic,non-genetically modified, rice.

The plants have been modified to express the human glycoprotein lactoferrin and human lysozyme.
