Job Cuts In Goverment, Tony Clement Good Man At The Reigns For A Change

Hundreds of Environment Canada jobs to be cut.

Well all I can say is, way to go Tony it is a long time coming.  Folks today have to remember government jobs does not make a health economy.  It drains the economy, as the working man has to pay them. Doesn’t take a rocket scientist to relalize that,  but there is lots out there that would beg to differ. Never ceases to amaze me with their thinking.  My opinion only.  Again; way to go Tony keep up the good work.

Hungary destroys all GMO maize fields

Some 400 hectares of maize found to have been grown with genetically modified seeds have been destroyed throughout Hungary deputy state secretary of the Ministry of Rural Development Lajos Bognar said. The GMO maize has been ploughed under, said Lajos Bognar, but pollen has not spread from the maize, he added. Unlike several EU members, GMO seeds are banned in Hungary.

Another country that has seen the light.  Hope more will come on board in the near future.

Goodbye For Now My Fiend: Peter Falk dead at 83

Well here again we lost a great feller.   Peter in my eyes was one of the greatest actors that the world has ever seen.  His death was not really known, or so they say, but earlier he had had some major dental work done.  Kind of makes you wonder doesn’t it.  For me I have my own theory and with the way the medical profession is going today, well nothing more needs to be said.   See you around Peter.  My Opinion Only.

News From Port Loring Ontario

Well been a couple cool days here.  Yesterday was cool enough for me to wear a jacket while getting my mowing done.  Also cloudy and day before that rained most of the day.  Today though is sunny and looks nice but still cool. Winds from the old north bringing in the cool air is the culprit but by the looks of the long range into next week things change back to warmer weather.  At least into the seventies they say, so that is ok with me.  Even had to put on the old furnace for a wee bit this morning to take the dampness out of the old bones and warm up the house a touch.  Today will get at working up my veggie gardens some, so that should keep me busy. Have to say they things are growing nicely too, been eating fresh veggies regularly every day now.   Our store is also open now for the season, loaded with all kinds of new items too.  So be sure to drop by when your out this way.  Can’t miss our place now as out front we have a brand new sign that says.  George & Ruth Walters Author and Artist with a gift shop sign underneath.  Have a great day.

The e.coli outbreak in Germany

The e.coli outbreak in Germany is raising alarm worldwide as scientists are now describing this particular strain of e.coli as “extremely aggressive and toxic.” Even worse, the strain is resistant to antibiotics, making it one of the world’s first widespread superbug food infections that’s racking up a noticeable body count while sickening thousands.

Of course, virtually every report you’ll read on this in the mainstream media has the facts wrong. This isn’t about cucumbers being dangerous, because e.coli does not grow on cucumbers. E.coli is an intestinal strain of bacteria that only grows inside the guts of animals (and people). Thus, the source of all this e.coli is ANIMAL, not vegetable.

But the media won’t admit that. Because the whole agenda here is to kill your vegetables but protect the atrocious practices of the factory animal meat industries. The FDA, in particular, loves all these outbreaks because it gives them more moral authority to clamp down on gardens and farms. They’ve been trying to irradiate and fumigate fresh veggies in the USA for years. (http://www.naturalnews.com/023015_f…)

For Those That Loves SUPERMAN The Man Of Steel

Well Smallville is finished, 10 years and all were pretty good shows.   This Article written by Steve Younis says it all, good writer too.  “There’s no doubt that this was a satisfying finale. Clark Kent became Superman. He flew. He wore the costume. He saved the world when nobody else could. This was a job for Superman. No one else on Earth could have saved the day. No other hero. No government. Nothing. Only Superman… and he did.
Smallville Finale “Smallville” was the journey of Clark Kent becoming Superman. And it succeeded in that premise. It wasn’t a finale… it was a journey. And as such, it’s not an end, but the beginning of the adventures of Superman. Did it leave us wanting more? Yes, but that’s because we know there is more… much more.
“Smallville” introduced us to a small boy whose space ship landed him in a Kansas corn field, grew up in the care of two kindly people, discovered he had great powers beyond those of mortal men, and decided to use those powers to help other people. Through many trials, loves lost and found, friends come and gone, enemies earthly and alien, he prevailed. When darkness threatened, he was the light that shone through. Clark Kent became Superman.”

Now look for the Superman Movie coming out later on this year at theatres everywhere.  I will miss Smallville, as through out the years one might say I grew up with the man of steel, comic books, cartoons, TV series, and Movies.  Will there more, sure there will, as everyone needs a hero.

The Collapse of Our Bees & Why

The silence of the bees – Colony Collapse Disorder continues to accelerate across North America. We already know it’s being caused in part by chemical pesticides (and possibly worsened by GMOs), but the chemical industry is engaged in a full-on cover-up to deny this truth while the pollinators of our world suffer a devastating population collapse.

Prime Minister Stephen Harper Gets His Majority Government

First off if Canadians would have listened to me many years ago our country wouldn’t have gotten into such a state as it did before the Conservatives got to power.  I blame it all on Trudeau, he was the guy that started it all.  He was the one that almost took Canada down for the count.  The next one in power Jean Chrétien wasn’t much better if not the same.  On another note.  Canadians gave gave Prime Minister Stephen Harper his first majority government   last night, our man up here in Port Loring Tony Clement got back in, so all in all it was a good night for Canada.   I expected it would happen as such and glad we now have a majority government, just I am hoping they don’t get to carried away.  There is some things I don’t agree with in what they are  planning but the alternative wouldn’t have been good.  With the NDP now being up there high on the ladder, the Conservatives will have to kind of bend a touch, as if not the next time round won’t be so blue in colour.  So lets hope folks, I for one am happy, for now any ways.   Way to go Mr. Harper you did good.  Oh and for the Liberals & the Bloc, well lets just say they are right where they should be, now if we can get rid of this Dalton gang here in Ontario we will be all set. One can only hope.

EPA Raises limits for radiation Canada turns off fallout detectors

Here is an itnteresting article for those that have some concerns over what is  happening in Japan.  Should open your eyes to what is happening here and in the USA, as to how they are making this whole thing in Japan take on a look of not being so bad.  I have said for years, that North America is the only countries in the world that feels it is safe to put millions of tons of poisons in our food, land and water each and every year. Meaning pesticides on our crops, antibiotics and hormones in our cattle and chickens, and treating out sick with drugs that would make anyone cringe if they really  knew what they were made of, along with treating more of our sick with radiation,chemotherapy well just to darn many things to name.  And these are all safe for humans to eat too, in moderation of course.  Are seeing what I am saying here??? My opinion only.
