An 80-year-old Italian goes to his doctor for an annual checkup. The doctor is amazed at what good shape the guy is in and asks, 'How do you stay in such great physical condition?'
‘I'm Italian and I am a golfer,' says the old guy, 'and that's why I'm in such good shape. I'm up well before daylight and out golfing up and down the fairways. 'I have a glass of vino, and all is well.' 'Well,' says the doctor, 'I'm sure that helps, but there's got to be more to it. How old was your Dad when he died?'
'Who said my Dad's dead?' The doctor is in amazement. 'You mean you're 80 years old and your Dad's still alive. How old is he?' 'He's 100 years old,' says the old Italian golfer. 'In fact he golfed with me this morning, and then we went to the beach for a walk and had a little vino and that's why he's still alive. He's Italian and he's a golfer, too.'
'Well,' the doctor says, 'that's great, but I'm sure there's more to it than that. How about your Dad's Dad? How old was he when he died?'
'Who said my grandpa's dead?'
Absolutely stunned, the doctor asks, 'You mean you're 80 years old and your grandfather's still living! Incredible, how old is he?' 'He's 118 years old,' says the old Italian golfer. The doctor is getting frustrated at this point, 'So, I guess he went golfing with you this morning too?' 'No. Grandpa couldn't go this morning because he's getting married today.'
At this point the doctor is close to losing it. 'Getting married; why would a 118-year-old guy want to get married?'
'Who said he wanted to?'

toxic vaccine hazards -swine flu
"These vaccines are untested, toxic, extremely dangerous to the human immune system... they must be avoided..."
by Stephen Lendman
On July 13, a World Health Organization (WHO) Global Alert headlined, "WHO recommendations on pandemic (H1N1) 2009 vaccinations" suggest that universally mandated ones are coming. It stated that on July 7, the pharmaceutical industry-dominated Strategic Advisory Group of Experts (SAGE) on Immunization held an "extraordinary meeting in Geneva to discuss issues and make recommendations related to vaccine for the pandemic (H1N1) 2009."
The WHO said the virus "is considered unstoppable," while admitting little evidence of spread so far, most cases are mild, and many people recover unaided. Nonetheless, all countries will need vaccines and should follow these priorities as initial supplies will be limited:
-- immunize health care workers "to protect the essential health care infrastructure;" then
-- pregnant women; children over six months of age "with one of several chronic medical conditions;" healthy young adults aged 15 - 49; healthy children; healthy adults aged 50 - 64; and finally healthy adults aged 65 or older.
WHO suggested the risks in stating "new technologies are involved in the production of some pandemic vaccines, which have not yet been extensively evaluated for their safety in certain population groups..." As a result, "post-marketing surveillance" and "post-marketing safety and effectiveness studies" are essential so that countries can adjust their vaccination policies.
WHO "recommendations" are binding on all 194 member countries in case a pandemic emergency is declared under the 2005 International Health Regulations Act and April 2009 WHO pandemic plan.
It's crucial to understand that these vaccines are experimental, untested, toxic and extremely dangerous to the human immune system. They contain squalene-based adjuvants that cause a host of annoying to life-threatening autoimmune diseases. They must be avoided, even if mandated. It's also known that vaccines don't protect against diseases they're designed to prevent and often cause them. They should be banned but proliferate anyway because they're so profitable, and if globally mandated to the greatest extent ever.
Get ready because that's precisely what's coming - universal orders to risk toxic vaccine hazards. In the coming weeks, the dominant media globally will get into high gear fear-mongering mode to convince people voluntarily to submit to jeopardizing their health and well-being. It's essential to refuse and be safe and international law absolutely allows it.

mountain of painkillers needed for back pain
Mountain of analgesics needed to treat back pain – BackCare Awareness Week 10-16 October 2009
BackCare Awareness week is running from 10-16 October.
Here are some interesting statistics below about back pain:
• 52% of Britons currently suffer from back pain , costing the NHS around £480 million a year to treat.
• Nearly 5 million working days were lost as a result of back pain in 2003-04, meaning that on any one day 1% of the working population were on sickness leave due to a back problem , making back pain the largest single cause of work-related absence in Britain.
• Around 125,175,200 pain killers are consumed each year to treat back pain (men: 47, 667, 500, women: 77, 507, 700).
• 50% of back pain sufferers think their painkillers don’t last long enough and 41% of sufferers can’t sleep through the night when they have back pain
• Back pain causes more than physical discomfort with 29% of sufferers feeling depressed
• According to leading experts ‘self-management’ is the most effective treatment for the first ten days and they stress that it is important to keep mobile in the day and get a good night’s rest.
• According to back pain experts, there is a strong connection between stress and back pain. Stress causes a release of stress hormones and stress hormones increase the perception of pain.
• Increased pain can, in turn, lead to increased stress and depression creating a cycle of depression and pain that can be difficult to break.

Hulda Clark 1928 - 2009
In Remembrance of Dr. Hulda Regehr Clark 1928 - 2009
Dr. Hulda Regehr Clark was born on October 18th, 1928 in Rosthern ,
Saskatchewan Canada.
She began her studies in biology at the University of Saskatchewan,
Canada, where she was awarded the Bachelor of Arts in 1950 , Magna Cum
Laude. Dr. Clark was awarded a Master of Arts degree, with High Honors
from the University of Saskatchewan. After two years of study at McGill
University, Dr. Clark was awarded her Doctorate degree in physiology by
the University of Minnesota in 1958. Dr. Clark studies throughout focused
on biophysics and cell physiology.
Dr. Clark established a nutritional consulting practice in the late 1960’s
as a complement to her university research at the University of Indiana.
In 1974 when Federal research funds were eliminated, she began private
nutritional consulting on a full time basis. She obtained a naturopathy
degree at the Clayton College of Natural Health.
Dr. Clark focused on consulting and independent research in all aspects
of human disease, especially cancer.
This research took her down many avenues; from the study of parasites,
bacteria, viruses and fungus to heavy metals, solvents and lately
radioactivity. She wanted to find out how the human body cells react to
these invaders.
She came up with many solutions to rid our bodies of these invaders. Dr.
Clark researched the use of herbs, essential oils, orthomolecular therapy
and frequency therapy. She focused on the importance of dental health, as
well as everyday awareness of environmental factors.
Her most important discovery was the zapper. Zapping means electrocuting
pathogens and for years she used a frequency generator to "zap" one
pathogen after another. In 1994 her son built a hand held, battery
operated, accurate frequency generator. The purpose was to kill the
intestinal fluke but she then noticed that the battery-operated zapper
killed all pathogens without having to set in a specific frequency. This
was a great time-saver.
Another key invention of Dr. Clark is the Syncrometer. It is an audio
oscillator circuit that tunes for and detects the resonance in all things
in much the same way a radio tuner located a specific station. The
Syncrometer can scan for anything in the body – be it an object, an organ,
a chemical or virus because everything has a characteristic frequency or
set of frequencies.
Dr. Clark undertook all of her research with her Syncrometer and detected
the causes of cancer, HIV and other "mysterious" diseases.
Her approach was quite simple. With the use of the Syncrometer she would
search for common denominators (e.g. toxins, pathogens) in each case she
undertook that was suffering from the same disease (for ex. cancer)
As Dr. Clark would become certain of a discovery, she would seek
confirmation of her more critical findings with conventional independent
laboratory analysis.
This was often difficult because the Syncrometer detects to specificity
well beyond the capabilities of most laboratory analysis.
Dr. Clark has written 7 books of which 5 concerning cancer. In them Dr.
Clark details her methods, her results, and her conclusions for all to
read. In her later books she describes in detail her newest frequency
technologies such as plate-zapping and homeography. In addition each
cancer book contains a specific holistic cancer fighting program.
Dr. Clark, with her self-health approach, has touched countless
individuals around the globe who have been able to help themselves with
the knowledge that she has provided. Dr. Clark endured severe attacks by
professional adversaries as well as Government Officials. She nevertheless
carried on sharing her knowledge for the benefit of health and mankind.
We are thankful for Dr. Clark’s unselfish dedication and lasting
contributions to all.
Dr. Clark passed away on September 3rd 2009 in Chula Vista California.

women and heart attacks
more useful information from Al Sears MD - this could save your life!
"The signs considered typical of a heart
attack - sharp chest pains, pains running down the left arm, and
shortness of breath - are true in men.
But the're not common in women. A
woman having a heart attack is more likely to experience:
Aches in the shoulders
and both arms.
Abdominal discomfort that
mimics indigestion.
Unusual fatigue.
Dizziness or
lightheadedness.
A general feeling that
something's wrong.
And often, no pain at
all.
So what can you do? If you have one or
more of the symptoms mentioned, get to an emergency room immediately!
Dont put it off. Calling 911 is usually better than driving to
the hospital. The EMS team can begin treatment immediately.
While you are waiting for EMS to arrive,
chew and swallow a regular 325 mg aspirin. There's strong
evidence that during a heart attack, a single aspirin could save your
life."

carbs cause cancer?
from Al Sears MD
"The other night, my son Dylan and I were
in line at the grocery checkout, and I couldnt help but notice
the woman in front of me.
As she unloaded potato chips, pastries,
waffles, and pasta onto the conveyor belt, I wondered if she
understood the risks she was taking. If she knew empty carbs were
linked to breast cancer would she still buy them?
Sugar feeds cancer cells ... and makes
them grow like wildfire. Cancer loves sugar.
And carbs turn into sugar in your body.
A 2004 study in Cancer Epidemiology followed the
eating habits of a large group of women in Mexico. The risk of breast
cancer was found to be 220% higher in the women who ate the largest
amounts of carbohydrates compared to the women who ate the least
carbs.1
And just a few weeks ago, a new study
confirmed it.
Researchers in Stockholm analyzed data
from women who completed food frequency questionnaires
in the late 1980s. They discovered that women who ate high glycemic
load foods were more likely to develop breast cancer.
They also found that carbohydrate
intake, glycemic index and glycemic load were all associated with a
specific estrogen receptor type of tumor.2
And it’s not just women who need
to be concerned. There have also been links to carbohydrate
consumption, especially high glycemic load foods, and colorectal
cancer among men.3
The evidence that refined, processed,
high glycemic foods are bad for you is overwhelming. And when it comes
to cancer, sugar is the worst.
So when you go to the store, make sure
to pass up on the sugar. Plus, youll want to avoid
...
Grains, including Potatoes and other white
foods, like white rice, sugar and salt.
Also avoid drinks and foods that
contain high fructose corn syrup"

swine flu disaster?
from Dr Tedd...
The swine flu vaccine has been rushed to the market even before safety tests are complete. A federal advisory panel said the FDA should move ahead to approve or license the new H1N1 vaccine without waiting to receive data from clinical trials to test its safety and efficacy.” (Wall Street Journal. July 24, 2009-see here)
I found something really interesting and important at Bild.com English on-line edition, August 7th 2009. The German health expert Dr. Wolfgang Wodarg is a specialist in lungs, hygiene and environmental medicine. He is also the chairman of the health committee in the German parliament and European Council. In this article, he warns us that the swine-flu is grown in a solution that consists of cancerous cells from animals.
There is fear that the risk of cancer could be increased by injecting these cells with the vaccine. Johannes Löwer, president of the Paul Ehrlich Institute, says that the swine flu shot can cause worse side effects than the actual swine flu virus.
Further, Johannes Löwer, president of the Paul Ehrlich Institute, says that the swine flu shot can cause worse side effects than the actual swine flu virus.
Contrary to what we are being fed in the media, Dr. Wodrag reports that the swine flu is milder than normal flu. “If you look at the number of cases, it is nothing compared to a normal flu outbreak,” he added

diabetes and pollution
While obesity is commonly held as a cause of diabetes, an
emerging understanding of environmental pollutants is challenging this theory.
A remarkable report published in the journal Diabetes Care in July 2006 bought to
light the suggestion that low-level exposure to common environmental pollutants may
be a risk factor for diabetes.
These pollutants are most commonly found in foods so switching to organic foods may be a wise move to prevent diabetes.
Pollutants and toxins tend to accumulate in fatty tissue so losing weight may still also be a good idea for overweight individuals.

BBQ Rules
It is important to refresh your memory on the etiquette of this sublime outdoor
cooking activity. When a man volunteers to do the BBQ the following chain of events
are put into motion:
Routine...
(1) The woman buys the food.
(2) The woman makes the salad, prepares the vegetables, and makes dessert.
(3) The woman prepares the meat for cooking, places it on a tray along with the
necessary cooking utensils and sauces, and takes it to the man who is lounging
beside the grill - beer in hand.
(4) The woman remains outside the compulsory three-meter exclusion zone where the
exuberance of testosterone and other manly bonding activities can take place without
the interference of the woman.
Here comes the important part:
(5) THE MAN PLACES THE MEAT ON THE GRILL.
More routine...
(6) The woman goes inside to organize the plates and cutlery.
(7) The woman comes out to tell the man that the meat is looking great. He thanks
her and asks if she will bring another beer while he flips the meat
Important again:
(8) THE MAN TAKES THE MEAT OFF THE GRILL AND HANDS IT TO THE WOMAN.
More routine...
(9) The woman prepares the plates, salad, bread, utensils, napkins, sauces, and
brings them to the table.
(10) After eating, the woman clears the table and does the dishes.
And most important of all:
(11) Everyone PRAISES the MAN and THANKS HIM for his cooking efforts.
(12) The man asks the woman how she enjoyed 'her night off', and, upon seeing her
annoyed reaction, concludes that there's just no pleasing some women.

antibiotics
It may not be an ideal topic for polite conversation, but human beings are swarming with bacteria: Even the average healthy adult plays host to about 100 trillion microscopic organisms. Infection takes place when the bacteria get out of hand.
Now, a University of Kansas researcher has penned a history of the struggle between man and bacteria — and warns that humankind someday may lose its advantage.
In the March 28 issue of the American Chemical Society’s Journal of Natural Products, Lester A. Mitscher, a University Distinguished Professor of Medicinal Chemistry, calls for the development of more potent antibiotics necessary for humanity to manage drug-resistant breeds of microbes.
“Antibiotics are essentially selective poisons that kill bacteria and that do not kill us,” Mitscher said.
In his article, “Coevolution: Mankind and Microbes,” Mitscher chronicles the advent of antibiotics in the 20th century. Sulfonamides, the first anti-infectives, were introduced the mid-1930s. Penicillin — “the first true antibiotic” — was employed widely during World War II. In the decades since, dozens of important antibiotics have been developed and marketed around the world.
“These were called ‘miracle drugs,’ ” said Mitscher. “Unfortunately, that had a downside. They were so relatively safe and so effective that we became careless in their use and in our personal habits. That has caused much of the resistance phenomenon we have today.”
Microbial resistance to these drugs has been an ever-increasing problem because of the speedy reproduction and evolution of microorganisms.
“Bacteria that survive the initial onslaught of antibiotics then are increasingly resistant to them,” said Mitscher. “The sensitive proportion of the bacterial population dies, but then the survivors multiply quickly — and they are less sensitive to antibiotics. The sensitivity goes all the way from requiring a longer course of therapy or a higher dose, to being totally unaffected by the antibiotic.”
Humans have overused antibiotics in areas such as agriculture, worsening the dilemma of highly resistant bacteria.
“People are surprised to learn that almost half of all the antibiotics produced in the world are used in animal husbandry,” said Mitscher. “I’m not referring to using antibiotics for curing infections of animals — what I mean is use of antibiotics in relatively small doses as an animal-feed supplement. Animals then grow quicker to a marketable size, and this is seen as a universal good. The difficulty is that use of antibiotics in that setting is an invitation towards resistance. Unfortunately, humans get infected with resistant strains that were generated in animals in this manner.”
These days, with so-called “super-bugs” like Methacillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) making news, resistance is becoming a major public health problem.
“Resistance that started in a hospital setting quickly spread into the community, and now resistance is essentially all around us,” Mitscher said. “That does not mean to say we’re all going to die in agony in the immediate future. But this is an important phenomenon that needs to be addressed more carefully than we have in the past.”
Part of the solution is to use antibiotics sparingly for industrial, agricultural and medical purposes. When an antibiotic is called for to treat an infection the best one should be used with appropriate intensity.
Mitscher said that drug corporations must develop antibiotics with the potential not only to kill microbes but also to inhibit their ability to mutate. These new drugs would be made more effective still if they enlisted the body’s own immune system to battle infections.
Alas, because of the economics of the drug industry, Mitscher said such “triple treat” antibiotics might be a long time coming.
“The pace of antibiotic discovery has fallen off, partly because the intensive research on them has lead to increasingly diminishing returns,” said Mitscher. “Pharmaceutical firms have, for a variety of commercial reasons, de-emphasized antibiotic research in recent decades.”
or what about this solution?
In the early part of this century, Colloidal Silver was used as a mainstream therapy until modern antibiotics came along; Silver was the primary antibiotic used by the wealthy before the advent of penicillin. With many organisms now resistant to antibiotic therapy and antibiotics causing numerous side effects; more and more people are turning to Colloidal Silver to treat a range of infections in a natural, balanced way.

Chiropractic is founded on "Tone"
Chiropractic is based on the principle of Tone.
What we do is allow normal tone to occur. To allow the restoration of the brain-body connection. To allow that nerve system, free of interference, to more fully express Life Energy, so that every cell can know and perform its task for the good of the whole. And as that person assimilates the lesson held within the energy and information stored as subluxation, they heal. They grow. They evolve. And their friends, families and aquaintences benefit from the change.
What we do is far more than put people's pain to sleep. We allow life to awaken. We bring forth in every individual that which will cause the world to heal. To move in a better direction. To allow the restoration of natural processes on the planet by making one more person less of a problem and more of a solution.
