Food Crisis: Wake up, U.S. farmers caught selling modified seeds as ‘organic’!

24 February 2016 /18:36 UTC-07 Tango 01 (06 Esfand 1394/16 Jumada al-Ula 1437/18 Geng Yin 4714)

“Since May 5, 2015, I have been investigating what appears to be a scheme to defraud farms and seed companies that purchase organic alfalfa seed for use or resale.”-Drew McCandless, FBI

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is about to search a southern Idaho farm after a state investigation caught the ‘farmer’ selling non-‘organic’ (conventional) alfalfa seed as ‘organic’.

The farmer in Buhl promoted his operation as organic, yet to boost his profits he sold less desired conventional seed as organic.  The FBI is also investigating how the farmer came up with $1.7-million USD to buy his farm.  Accounting books provided to state inspectors, in 2014, did not match with bank deposit records.  Another concern is that records show the ‘organic farm’ was selling for more seed than what could actually be grown on the farm’s 177 hectares (438 acres).   Interestingly, just days after the farm owner was interviewed by federal investigators he filed documents to have the farm transferred out of his name. However, investigators discovered the names listed on the transfer request are previously used aliases of the owner!

The federal investigation began last year, after an Idaho Department of Agriculture investigation.  The state was tipped off by a farm manager turned whistleblower.  The farm owner would buy conventional seed then sell it to ignorant buyers from out of state, mainly east of the Rocky Mountains.  The fake organic seed sales have taken place since at least 2010!

At this point nobody has been arrested.  If a federal judge approves the warrant to search the farm in Buhl, the FBI has implied that it expects to find evidence of illegal activity that will allow them to seize all property and assets of the owner.

United Failed States: Abe Shinzo openly disobey’s order from Barack Obama!

“Prime Minister Abe is planning an unofficial visit to Russia at an appropriate time before Russian President Vladimir Putin visits Japan.”-Suga Yoshihide, Chief Cabinet Secretary to Abe Shinzo

News reports out of Japan revealed that on 09 February 2016 U.S. regime leader Barack Obama ordered Japan’s neo-imperialist prime minister Abe Shinzo to stay away from Russian President Vladimir Putin!

Apparently the current Japanese government is eager to settle disputes over islands that Russia-Soviet Union and Japan fought over during the first half of the 20th century.  Russia and Japan have never signed a formal peace treaty.  This is probably neo-imperialist Japan positioning itself for war with China.

To have the prime minister of a country you’ve occupied since 1945 thumb his nose at your order not to do something is a sure sign you are a Failed State!

Covert Deforestation: Japan to help allergy sufferers by sterilizing the trees!

24 February 2016 (05:01 UTC-07 Tango 01) 05 Esfand 1394/15 Jumada al-Ula 1437/17 Geng Yin 4714

I hate airborne allergies, my nose runs and I have a heck of-a time trying to catch it.

Spring time is when many Japanese (1 in 4 according to publisher Shukan Gendai) suffer from cedar pollen, prompting huge sales of surgical masks.  But now a tree grower and some scientists have come up with two ways to end the allergy sufferer’s woes, and possibly end the life of the trees in the process.

The tree grower in Gunma Prefecture claims to have bred a cedar tree that produces 90% less pollen.  He already has greenhouses full of saplings ready to replace the ‘naturally’ occurring trees.

Scientists with Forestry and Forest Products Institute have created a way to use a dangerous bacteria.  They mix it with some liquid and then spray it on the cones of the trees.  It attacks the ‘male’ cones, killing them off so they won’t produce pollen.  They admitted they still need to test the bacterial spray effects on humans.

Now realize that pollen is how the Japanese Cedar tree reproduces, and the researches are effectivly proposing the sterilization of those trees in order to help people suffering from allergies!  If these plans go into effect then in the future the only Japanese Cedar trees left will be those literally created by humans in factory greenhouses.

But wait, did I say “naturally occurring” trees?  Just like in Europe it turns out that many of Japan’s forests are not naturally occurring, but were planted by humans. (“This boom in sugi allergies is the direct result of government policies implemented following World War II aimed at raising Japan’s domestic lumber production.”)

Charles Darwin’s rule of evolution is that a successful species is one that can produce the most surviving offspring, on its own.  (that’s what is meant by Survival of the Fittest)

By the way, articles published by Shukan Gendai blames the Japanese obsession with cleanliness for the high rates of allergies!

More TEPCo lies revealed! United States to blame!

Five years after the ongoing nuclear disaster known as Fukushima began more lies propogated by Tokyo Electric Power Company are being outed!

Originally TEPCo stated it had no corporate policy regarding the definition of a reactor core melt down.  They based their reasoning for not having melt down policies on lies from U.S. General Electric (who designed the disaster reactors), which literally said in writing that the reactors were “safe”.

It’s now been revealed that TEPCo did indeed have a definition of a reactor core emergency based on possible 5% damage to core.  Just days after the 11 March 2011 tsunami TEPCo employees documented 30% damage to several reactor cores!

A recent United Nations IAEA study concluded that the lack of response to the nuclear melt downs was because Japanese officials truly believed the bullshit spewed by U.S. nuclear industry, which said nuclear reactors were 100% safe!  Japanese officials have even produced letters from U.S. companies stating so!

Overwhelming proof College benefits only the 1%! Capitalist using real slaves in California! : U.S. Job Losses & Closings 23 February 2016

Incomplete list of job loss announcements and shutdowns.

“If you grow up low income and manage to get higher education, which few people manage to do, the potential for that to lift you solidly up into the middle-class and upper-middle class is more limited than we thought.”-Brad Hershbein, W.E. Upjohn Institute for Employment

A Brookings Institute study (A college degree is worth less if you are raised poor) revealed some surprising data about what is now obviously the ‘lie’ of higher education:  Using decades worth of data the researchers discovered that having a four year college degree does absolutely nothing to help low income people get out of poverty!  It seems only people from wealthy families benefit from a college degree!    I can attest to that; I’m from “low income” and I got a bachelors degree (later in life, after decades of working for the Man) and my income actually went down after I graduated. I’ve gotten numerous rejection letters, where as before I got the degree I could walk in anywhere and get hired!  What sup wit dat?

Arizona: In Tucson, Mexico based ANSARCO issued a WARN, 163 copper mining jobs lost due to low prices!

California: More proof you brick-n-mortar store owners can’t directly blame the internet/high tech for your demise; San Francisco based interactive entertainment company Kabam eliminating an undisclosed number of jobs, as part of their plan to acquire major gaming platforms.  In San Jose, evil vulture capitalist investment company Fenox Venture Capital was caught employing slaves!  The U.S. Department of Labor charged the capitalists of “misclassifying” 56 employees as “unpaid interns”, when they were, in fact, full paid employees.  Fenox Vulture Capital must now pay out $331,269 USD in back wages: “A large number of employees worked for free providing hundreds of man hours for this company to make a profit. For them to not even pay minimum wage in [San Francisco] Bay is really appalling.”-Michael Eastwood, U.S. Department of Labor

Colorado: Taxsucking military contractor Jacobs Technology-ETASS laying off 70 people.  The Vail Cascade resort issued a layoff WARN, 2-hundred jobs being eliminated!   Honeywell eliminating at least eight jobs.  Sky Hotel 39 Degrees issued a shutdown WARN, 91 jobs lost. Texas based insurance referrer All Web Leads issued a shutdown WARN, 103 jobs lost! It might be connected to the November 2015 takeover of rival InsuranceQuotes.  After killing off 5-hundred jobs in Washington, California based Concentrix eliminating between 270 to 378 Boulder County jobs due to the loss of their IBM contract!

Georgia: Suwanee based telecommunications equipment maker Arris eliminating at least 8-hundred jobs, as part of their merger with British empire United Kingdom based company Pace!

Florida:  Wholesale soup maker Chef Creations is no more, they’ve sold out to a Massachusetts corporation, resulting in 110 Chef Creations HQ employees, in Orlando, becoming jobless between April and July!  Local news media made the sale sound like a surprise as Chef Creations had recently won new local tax breaks, and gotten approval for major financing, for expansion of their soup making operations.

Kentucky: Lexington based printer maker Lexmark eliminating 550 jobs on the advise of Goldman Sachs!  The company is even considering the option of selling itself off.

Massachusetts:  In Edgartown, women’s clothier hannah b shutting down, with the owner saying “it just happens”.

New York: CNN’s Manhattan Center Productions updated their WARN saying 222 people will now become unemployed by the end of April! CNN is moving its HeadLineNews (HLN) program from New York City to Atlanta, Georgia.   In Saratoga Springs, after 30 years Aggie Mullaney boutique shutting down on Monday, so the owner can focus on her new retail operation.

North Dakota:  State Department of Transportation announced it must eliminate all temporary jobs due to a $69-million USD decline in fuel tax, vehicle registration and other fee revenues.  Crashing government revenues caused by people with no money to spend is  overwhelming proof we are in a depression.

Virginia: In Bland, transformer maker ABB eliminating 30 jobs, blaming “….a slowdown in the market, we can’t say for sure what will happen next. It depends on demand.”

WARN=Worker Adjustment & Retraining Notification

22 February 2016: “We’re being thrown out….”

Former employees who receive severance are not counted as unemployed

The U.S. Department of Labor (DoL) no longer issues mass layoff reports: “On March 1, 2013, President Obama ordered into effect the across-the- board spending cuts (commonly referred to as sequestration) required by the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act, as amended. Under the order, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) must cut its current budget by more than $30 million, 5 percent of the current 2013 appropriation, by September 30, 2013. In order to help achieve these savings and protect core programs, the BLS will eliminate two programs, including Mass Layoff Statistics, and all ‘measuring green jobs’ products. This news release is the final publication of monthly mass layoff survey data.”

Perfect Storm: Low oil prices & investor exodus will kill-off oil industry?

23 February 2016 (07:34 UTC-07 Tango 01) 04 Esfand 1394/14 Jumada al-Ula 1437/16 Geng Yin 4714

“It is easy for consumers to be lulled into complacency by ample stocks and low prices today, but they should heed the writing on the wall: the historic investment cuts we are seeing raise the odds of unpleasant oil-security surprises in the not too distant future.”-Fatih Birol, International Energy Agency

A British oil industry group says not only are they dealing with low oil commodity prices, but investors are getting out fast.

The result could be that 43% of oil companies in the North Sea will cease to exist.   However, it should be noted that the Oil & Gas UK 2016 Activity Survey is making that claim to justify a permanent tax cut, even the elimination of the petroleum tax, for British oil companies!

Oil & Gas UK also clams that British oil companies cannot survive while their Brent Crude fetches only $30 per barrel.  In 2015, an estimated 65-thousands Britons lost their oil industry related jobs!

Recently several oil producing countries, including Russia and Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, agreed to hold oil production at January levels.  I’ve written how Iranian oil ministers boasted that their oil industry can make a profit even if oil hits $10 per barrel.

Once infected, Ebola strikes again & again & again….

“…now becoming clear that Ebola is a far more complex disease than we previously imagined.  The meningitis that Ms Cafferkey suffered from at the end of last year is one of the most serious complications of all, as it can be life-threatening.  The other main rare serious complication is inflammation of the eyes which can lead to blindness, especially if supportive treatments are unavailable.”-Derek Gatherer, Lancaster University

In Scotland, a nurse who got infected with Ebola in 2014 is in the hospital for a third time.

Nurse Pauline got infected while working at an Ebola treatment camp in Kerry Town, Sierra Leone.  Since then she’s been in an out of hospitals in the United Kingdom.  Regarding her current hospitalization the National Health Service would only say she’s “…been admitted to hospital for further investigations.”

Since the 2014 ebola outbreak in western Africa, at least 11-thousand people have died.   The first ebola outbreak was reported in central Africa in 1976, I’ve written how the western Africa outbreak is radically different from central African ebola outbreaks and coincides with U.S. JUPITR ops and United Nations food aid programs using GMO corn.

Germany posts record government surplus, again? Credit illegal immigrants!

“…the small present German surplus seems to be caused by a non-sustainable low level of government investment which is of course burdening the young with the real costs.”–The largest ‘Bild’ lie ever? Factchecking Bild-zeitung

Despite falling factory orders, and funding massive bailouts of failed EU member countries (nobody seems to know where those bailout funds actually went), and despite waves of record numbers of illegal migrants and war refugees, and despite screwing over its own working class with austerity measures (or perhaps because of it), the U.S. led NATO government of Germany is claiming a record budget surplus of $21-billion USD!  The second year in a row they’ve made such a claim!

The video talks about record mass migration into Germany by 2013, before the floodgates were opened to the illegals:

Economists in Germany have admitted that the main reason the government is allowing record numbers of illegal immigrants into the country is to abuse them as cheap wage slave labor.  I’ve already reported how Germany is actually hitting up their citizen taxpayers for more money to ‘create’ jobs for the illegals.

Is it coincidence that after the ‘German’ government imposes austerity on its citizen taxpayers, and then opens its borders to waves of illegal immigrants, that it’s now running a budget surplus for the past two years?

Maybe the NSDAP was right after all?  German workers unite!

More than 800 Germans & Muslim immigrants in Germany join Islamic State! 

German government approves computer spying on its citizens: “we now have the skills in an area where we did not”!

“We’re being thrown out on the street!” Proof the oil layoffs are BS! 3,000 jobs lost due to no more Chrysler 200! Global warming causes Tree shortage? : U.S. Job Losses & Closings 22 February 2016

Incomplete list of job loss announcements and shutdowns.

California: Chevron is about to layoff 237 people at its beautiful Kern County oil ops!  Administrators say it’s necessary to maintain “long-term business objectives”.

Colorado:  Missouri based mattress maker Leggett & Platt eliminating 64 jobs at its Colorado Springs factory.  The factory is being shutdown by June.

Idaho:  Despite the U.S. petroleum industry slashing-n-burning jobs and drastically cutting production, the very same industry is pushing ‘lawmakers’ to create a new law that will allow them to accelerate oil and natural gas production in The Gem State.   The proposed regulation would change the way the state Department of Lands and the state Oil and Gas Conservation Commission handle the approval process for drilling.   A former manager at Aberdeen’s Idaho Select potato processing plant has been sentenced for his crime of ripping off the company.  He admitted to using company money to buy cars, homes, go on vacations, send his daughters to college and even pay his daily bills.  He must now repay $1.7-million USD within seven years, as well as spend time in prison.  Embezzlement crimes are very common here in the ‘christian’ dominated Idaho (2010 U.S. Census Bureau data says at least 80% claim to be Christians).  

Perhaps the former shed manager at the potato processor wasn’t being paid enough?  According to United Way, one in three workers in the Right to Work (you over) Idaho cannot afford to live on what they are paid!

Illinois:  Mass layoffs at Eastern Illinois University is creating what I call Ripple Effect Layoffs; the Test Center had to shut down temporarily “in order to train the remaining staff in the building to assume the duties of the lost positions”.  127 years old (surviving The Great Depression and numerous recessions) Bernzen Lumber store shutting down next month.  It was sold-off due to the health problems of the owner, it’s hoped the buyer will re-open the lumber store.

Massachusetts: MassMutual Financial Group about to eliminate 360 jobs at its operations in Springfield and Enfield, despite record dividend payouts and a 9th consecutive year of growth!  Administrators would only say that the layoffs were their way to “effectively and efficiently deliver the greatest value to our policy owners”.

Michigan: What automotive industry recovery?  Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) furloughed more than 3-thousand people at its Sterling Heights factory!  They’ll be back to work in mid-March, but only for a couple of weeks when they’ll be laid off in April for an unknown amount of time!  FCA is ending production of its slow selling Chrysler 200.     Local news are also reporting that the Right to Work (you over) Michigan government has cut in half what it normally pays furloughed auto industry workers!

Minnesota:  Richfield based Best Buy continues killing jobs, this time 24 corporate HQ employees were kicked to the curb, despite that fact Best Buy is advertising that they have 90 open jobs at their HQ.  In the past few years Best Buy has eliminated at least 4-thousand jobs!

This happened in Serbia, but U.S. regulators fear it’ll happen in the U.S.

Montana: Another saw mill blames lack of trees for shutting down.  Stoltze Land and Lumber revealed they shutdown their night shift last week, due to lack of lumber to be milled.  The lack of lumber isn’t because we’ve run out of trees, rather it’s related to load limits placed on logging trucks.  The load restrictions are blamed on ‘global warming’, meaning warmer winter temps resulting in muddy roads, which are normally frozen now.

New York:  God powerless to stop ‘his’ Albany Roman Catholic Diocese from shutting down ‘his’ Saint Augustine school in  Lansingburgh.   Church leaders blamed the state government for refusing to give them taxpayer funding (which would be a violation of the U.S. 1st Amendment).  Germany based Deutsche Bank eliminating about 30 NYC jobs, blaming new laws and competition from U.S. banks.  Alternative clothing store Trash and Vaudeville shutting down its 40 years old Saint Marks Place location.  The owner blames “perpetual rent increases”.

Ohio: U.S. Department of Energy forcing Centrus Energy to shutdown operations at the American Centrifuge Project by the end of the week. However, about 150 people will remain to take part in decontaminating the nuclear energy project.  The DoE ended funding claiming it was a waste of taxpayer money.  In Cheviot, Vitor’s Bistro shutting down on Sunday, the owner blames low sales on a bad location.   The Fort Rapids Indoor Waterpark Resort and Seafood Buffet & Grill shutdown after a long history of violating local health codes, which resulted in several customers getting sick.  In Cleveland, decades old iconic the DINER on clifton shutting down next Monday, due to the greedy landlord: “We’re being thrown out on the street! Next to my parents dying this is the most stressful time of my life!   …..This feels personal when it’s something that’s been such a huge part of my life.”-Perry Drosos, operator

The landlord claims the eviction was coming for at least a year, primarily due to planned radical remodeling of the building.

Pennsylvania:  After 104 years (surviving The Great Depression and numerous recessions) God is powerless to stop the shutdown of ‘his’ SS. Cosmas and Damian Church, in Conshohocken.   Church administrators say it just cost too much to maintain the old building, proving that the real ‘god’ is money.

South Dakota: Yes Virginia, franchised Blockbuster video stores still exist, but no longer in Rapid City.  The last franchised Blockbuster store there is now dead.  The corporate operated stores all shutdown in 2011.

Texas: Houston based oil driller Schlumberger eliminated at least 25-thousand jobs in 2015, claiming it was losing money due to low prices, then paid its CEO a bonus of $18-million USD, which was the same amount the CEO got for his 2014 bonus!  How does low prices kill 25-thousand jobs, yet has no effect on the CEO’s bonus?
