[Biofuel] ot important info
If you are still brainwashed by the edible oil industry's incredibly effective media spin on soy, then please review the soy index page link below which has hundreds of pages describing the reason's you will not want to regularly consume non-fermented soy products. Soy protein powders and soy formula are the worst offenders and I don't believe that they should be consumed by anyone. -Mercola MD http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2001/10/27/soy-kidney-stones.aspx -- next part -- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Re: [Biofuel] A Green Process for Producing Biodiesel from Feather Meal
Thanks David. The story's been around for a few weeks though. The study was published on June 25, I picked it up on July 1, and there have been quite a few news reports since. Many of them also have the word green in the headline, or at least in the copy somewhere high up. Which is why I didn't post it here, I don't think it's very green. We concluded here long ago that all biodiesel or biofuel is not the same, and not necessarily a good thing, or even green. A prophetic message eight years ago from Steve Spence: From: steve spence [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Thu, 26 Jul 2001 05:52:44 -0400 Subject: Re: [biofuel] Support Grows for Corn-Based Fuel Despite Critics I have a niggling feeling that 10 years from now, the environmentalists will be fighting the ethanol industry tooth and nail. Anything can be done badly, and I expect the ADM's of the world will be successful in turning a clean renewable resource into a dirty unsustainable one... It happened sooner than he thought. In this case of the feather meal (hydrolysed feathers, blood and offal), the image above the abstract is clear enough: Broiler Meat Waste Cattle feed Biodiesel. The report says: Given the amount of feather meal produced by the poultry industry, it is estimated that this process can create 150-200 million gallons of biodiesel in the United States and 593.2 million gallons worldwide... And so on. The poultry industry. It just slops a bit of greenwash over the likes of Tysons and Perdue and what they do, but what they do is CAFOs, Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations, ie factory farms, and they're an unhygienic, unhealthy, environmentally filthy, brutal and wholly unnecessary atrocity. There's nothing good about them, there's no fixing them, they have to be eradicated, and it can't be too soon. And I'll stand on your grave til I'm sure that you're dead, as Bob Dylan put it (Masters of War, 1963). There's arguably a case for a technology that might help remediate some of the damage CAFOs cause in the meantime, but this study isn't angled that way, it assumes business-as-usual, and I can't see what damage it might remediate anyway. The stuff isn't being wasted now, it's used for cattlefeed (more CAFOs) and fertilizer - actually as an organic fertilizer (sic), all-natural and so on. That it ain't. http://www.organicgardeninfo.com/feather-meal.html The study doesn't even mention the option of using the biodiesel to defray the high input of fossil fuels that's found at every step of the industrial food production system, just the usual mantra of reducing the demand for foreign oil in general. Not much different from the turkey waste biodiesel study that got similar publicity a couple of years ago: http://www.autobloggreen.com/2006/07/17/turning-municipal-waste-in-to-biofuel/ However... http://www.autobloggreen.com/2006/11/27/missouri-biofuel-plant-smelling-up-the-air-again/ Missouri biofuel plant smelling up the air again :-( I said CAFOs are unhygienic and unhealthy, for at least two reasons, both of which you and I discussed here a few months ago, if you recall, when we were talking about swine flu and scare-mongering: http://www.mail-archive.com/biofuel@sustainablelists.org/msg74133.html CAFOs are the breeding ground of antibiotic-resistant super-bugs like MRSA: Factory farms are still feeding livestock megadoses of antibiotics, especially in the US, 40 years after the Swann Committee in the UK recommended that antibiotics used to treat people should not be fed to animals because of the danger of producing resistant bacteria. Which has since happened with Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), for starters... (previous message). They're also the breeding ground for highly pathogenic viruses, in much the same way that it took the frightful conditions in the World War 1 trenches to turn what was at first a mild form of the flu into the worldwide killer of the 1918 pandemic. For more on factory farms and viruses see: [Biofuel] Free-range poultry and bird flu Keith Addison Wed, 06 May 2009 http://www.mail-archive.com/biofuel@sustainablelists.org/msg74134.html I don't think the biodiesel from feather meal technique is something that could be applied on-farm (not on a real farm, that is) or at the local level. Not Appropriate Technology, IMHO.

[Biofuel] Now Legal Immunity for Swine flu Vaccine Makers
http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=vaaid=14453 Now Legal Immunity for Swine flu Vaccine Makers By F. William Engdahl Global Research, July 20, 2009 The US Secretary of Health and Human Services, Kathleen Sebelius, has just signed a decree granting vaccine makers total legal immunity from any lawsuits that result from any new Swine Flu vaccine. Moreover, the $7 billion US Government fast-track program to rush vaccines onto the market in time for the Autumn flu season is being done without even normal safety testing. Is there another agenda at work in the official WHO hysteria campaign to declare so-called H1N1 virus - which has yet to be rigorously scientifically isolated, characterized and photographed with an electron microscope - the scientifically accepted procedure - a global pandemic threat? The current official panic campaign over alleged Swine Flu danger is rapidly taking on the dimensions of a George Orwell science fiction novel. The document signed by Sebelius grants immunity to those making a swine flu vaccine, under the provisions of a 2006 law for public health emergencies. Not so sage SAGE That is once the WHO in Geneva, on recommendation of the WHO's Strategic Advisory Group on Immunizations, declared H1N1 to be Phase 6 or Pandemic, automatic emergency health response programs could be activated even in countries such as Germany where reported outbreaks of even suspected H1N1 can be counted to date on the fingers of slightly more than one hand. The WHO's SAGE is also worth scrutiny. Its Chairman since 2005 has been the UK Director of Immunization at the British Department of Health, Dr David Salisbury. In the 1980's Salisbury reportedly drew major fire for backing a massive vaccination of children with a multiple MMR vaccine manufactured by the predecessor company of GlaxoSmithKline. That vaccine was pulled off the market in Japan after significant numbers of children developed adverse reactions to the vaccine and the Japanese government was forced to pay significant compensation to the victims. In Sweden the MMR vaccine of GlaxoSmithKline was removed after scientists linked it to outbreaks of Crohn's disease. Apparently that had little impact on WHO SAGE chairman Salisbury. According to one independent UK investigator, Alan Golding, who obtained Freedom of Information documents on the case, in 1986 Trivirix, an MMR compound containing the Mumps Urabe strain AM-9, was introduced in Canada to replace MMR I. Concerns regarding the introduction of MMR in the UK are recorded in the minutes of the Joint Working Party of the British Paediatric Association and the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunization (JCVI) Liaison Group on June 26th of that year. Such concerns were soon to prove well grounded, as reports began to come in of an increased incidence of aseptic meningitis in vaccinated individuals. Ultimately, all MMR vaccines containing the Urabe strain of mumps were withdrawn in Canada in early 1988. This was before Urabe containing vaccines were licenced by the Department of Health for use in the UK The report adds, Smith-Kline - French, the pharmaceutical company who became Smith-Kline- Beecham and were involved in UK manufacture at that time, were concerned about these safety issues and were reluctant to obtain a UK license for their Urabe-containing vaccines. As a result of their 'concern' that children might be seriously damaged by one of their products, they requested that the UK government indemnify them against possible legal action that might be taken as a result of 'losses' associated with the vaccine, which by then was known to carry significant risk to health. The UK government, advised by Professor Salisbury and representatives from the Department of Health, in it's enthusiasm to get a cheap MMR onto the market, agreed to this request. Today the same Dr Salisbury is advocating global proliferation of untested H1N1 vaccines, also manufactured by the same firm, now called GlaxoSmithKline. The last phoney Swine Flu Disaster The last time the US Government faced a new swine flu virus was in 1976. Thousands filed claims contending they suffered side effects from the shots. This time, the government has taken steps to prevent any possible legal remedy should thousands of US citizens suffer severe complications as a result of being given untested vaccines. In 1976 President Gerald Ford, facing a difficult re-election campaign, was advised by the head of the CDC, David Sencer, to launch a mass national vaccination. As today with H1N1 Swine Flu, Sencer also used the scare of the alleged 1918 flu pandemic. Notably, some scientific researchers maintain that the deaths during the flu wave of 1918-1919, in the aftermath of the ghastly First World War, came not from any virus but from the governmental campaigns of mass vaccination against Spanish Flu.

Re: [Biofuel] Pigdozer update.
Nice, Peter! Thanks for the report, very interesting. It'd be great to have some pigs. Not here though, but next time for sure, which shouldn't be too long. Meanwhile the Muscovies are once again doing well with their ongoing global conspiracy to cover the world with a carpet of ducklings. Millions of ducklings! Well, 34 actually, so far, and we'll be lucky if we can keep it to less than 80 or 90 or so for the year. They're delightful little buggers, unbelievably cute, but 60 ducks is more than enough meat for us for a year. They're good grazers, useful on pastures, but they don't plough like pigs do. All best Keith Hi Keith ; Quick update for you about our pigdozer project. Our previous system for preparing a field for planting was the normal Cambodia way : 1) Plow in dry season to upturn roots and kill them. 2) Wait for some rain, this will germinate the remaining weed seeds. 3) Plow again. 4) Plow one more time before wet season to level for planting. This always infuriated me, because the naked earth was baking under the hot sun during the dry season. This KILLS the soil. But the concept was lost on them. They could see no other way to kill the weeds. We set up an electric fence. There was a bit of a learning experinence for the pigs, but they are not stupid. Now they will not touch the fence. My staff report that they could be running away from something and they stop at the fence like a car puts on brakes. We flood the field with water every two days. The pigs kill the grass and dig out all the strong roots of bamboo and other plants. Their weight is increasing, but slower than if fed by commercial feed. We also let them eat oil palm fruits, which they accept readily. They also love breadfruit, and we planted local water spinach and just let them get it by themselves. We hit a bell when we give them table rice scraps in the evening. They follow the guy with the bell like puppy dogs. If they ever do get out of the fence, we hit the bell and the pigs come running. Everyone is amazed, even the guy that took care of pigs for many years. He never thought it possible for the pigs to follow him around like puppy dogs. The report back is that the rice is growing VERY well in the area dug by the pigs. This is making big news with the locals. Now I get a wet, dug, and fertilized field without doing any work, without killing the soil, and without spending any money on diesel or pig food, and I get pig meat (and biogas later when we get to it).

[Biofuel] Exemptions From Vaccinations-Know Your Rights!
Protect yourselves from potentially dangerous vaccinations and help others do likewise. CANADA - IMMUNIZATION EXEMPTIONS (includes current statutes, letters forms) _http://www.vaclib.org/exempt/canada.htm_ (http://www.vaclib.org/exempt/canada.htm) HEALTH CANADA STATEMENT ON IMMUNIZATION Unlike some countries, immunization is not mandatory in Canada; it cannot be made mandatory because of the Canadian Constitution. Only three provinces have legislation or regulations under their health-protection acts to require proof of immunization for school entrance. Ontario and New Brunswick require proof for diphtheria, tetanus, polio, measles, mumps, and rubella immunization. In Manitoba, only measles vaccination is covered. It must be emphasized that, in these three provinces, exceptions are permitted for medical or religious grounds and reasons of conscience; legislation and regulations must not be interpreted to imply compulsory immunization.
