I was interstate and amateurs did and how the movie is still and nobody can explain that to us any better than kids for cash producer director. Robert many thanks for tickets -- gonna talk to when those Robert meant. It gave -- what's been happening since I last saw you which was the special screening. And we first -- goal at the theaters up a montage. Ultimately overwhelming earlier I mean -- then no we opened it up also felt -- attacked north eastern country being here now a little bit and so. Why we're able to Bergen Harrisburg Lancaster Redding. Erie Pennsylvania and -- 128. That's learned that I its national theaters around the country starting -- not. Steve on the air in Los Angeles Chicago -- other big markets. I'll get -- screening last week cannot Los Angeles the sort of release screenings. So few a full audience agree that eighty people that worked. In the always does that theatre and what tornado thing about it was just -- big company movie character. And don't look like it's don't get much attention it got considerable attention -- -- -- -- humidity and opens there on March 7. It's if we go to secure today. -- -- groups. And I'm it's been going well I think of a broad look at overwhelm -- how many people locally out of power categories the -- really. This story about -- about these kids. In the Jada hello -- the Southern California why do you believe that this such interest was express. They're not people are getting at these kind of appreciate that we current through there parity. Maybe not -- so much but direct direct. Here's her alive and well everywhere in the country they're really in the raid were treating -- And as and I think we're really. That really kind of not a charm you know -- you know someone here who we are welcome before happy -- I'm -- -- an audience -- air ball and currently is critical about any kind of work and -- Is talking about -- so literally called me to tell me. Chief still thinking about the movie and thinking about you know how unaware she was just how many people are. No way we treat kids I think that's it's it's universal and they're big they're portraying it as the -- Is universal and our treaty that you just can't expect. You know each other perhaps. You you mentioned to me than just last week a group of 250. Dallas high school students that's powered Dallas here in northeastern Pennsylvania screened the film what was what was that like Robert. Today because Dallas was the first large group -- I go to Smart group that's -- and today our schools didn't insult. And that what would maybe not a was weeks now to help one out because we watch audience response body language that sort of thing we've -- to -- Over very creatively done and what would so maybe all the -- watching was. We are on the back of the theater and these two were glued to the screen as a thrower the next big blockbuster all the work they they react to where we expected entry act just like adults state. They were clinched what we expect them to be and and the emotions that came out these kids to be entering a -- and it was quite remarkable should eat. Very strong comment and stand and -- it was probably one of the rescue and -- And I done anywhere I would sell out to support the fabric which features that work there without. What kind of question is were these teenagers asking. -- asking about problem -- eight you know why I tried Jack you know kids are judged. Assumed to be that. And and and and how is it that that happens and they they've helped create enough doubt it either going to be teachers that helped so -- -- were very curious. Course about why the judges spoke with just like those people -- They were curious about how other kids get their work is to try elsewhere in the country. Reacted to the go. And most importantly. -- spirited dialogue with some of these kids that wanted to see. A dialogue with the school but clearly wanted to see you know have some sort of got stronger relationship with the school. Itself which I think was remarkable for our you know for school -- -- or something like that. Was the Dallas invitation a special invitation or have you invited other high school students in northeastern Pennsylvania to see the movie. Well processor doing not alert literally would -- -- like three local school district to the cubs victory insurance state decades didn't fit. You know we can help coordinate back as we did with with ballots. And you know we really large. You do it every other local school districts -- happening now across the country is well named Alice was sort of a test case. Case and that you know if anyone can go -- tell -- is playing -- and it's starting its third week in the area which is which are remarkable for. Felt like that's -- and that's that we delicate feet. I telemarketing musik and are keeping hitters here it looks very NN that general sense. I'm here for -- certainly -- -- next week. And that would be great aren't hurt for our organization straight yet you know get kids tend to -- -- university Star Trek -- If after the Ron is complete that the theaters if at that point school districts in our community want to. Show the film to their high school students how they make contact how they do that. How well. Process that has setup much -- that we stay -- -- and we can bring some back for individual and screenings at any. Point in time during during Iran so we can creep back for a walk -- But it's bad. Virtually any -- any area and I just a little bit more logistically difficult to do it but we certainly can't do work there's also much discussion guys that's been developed. For the -- so people can talk about it. Today at school groups can go back to their classes -- what their teachers -- talk about democracy talk about corruption talk about the importance. Uploading skeletons this saying now kids grow up which -- remarkable to know earlier voting for. I'm fit about it after. He's going to I think there are so there's many ways that people could learn from -- from the story straight what gets. And say this is where I think. The power exists and you know maybe I talk about my area in my community because that's where I live and that's where I work I would love to -- All the school districts invite and I would love to see all the school districts. Made aware of how they can ask for this film to be shown to their high school students. And then follow up with that study guide but that's then one I anticipate trouble Robert -- because. I will not be at all surprised if some school districts. Do not want to open up that kind of conversation with their children do you see what I'm -- Absolutely -- serious -- that's why I applied Dallas for being the first person or any area it's actually peace and had a bit. And be aggressive enough to actually. I'll put it out there -- for their kids to creative dialogue and and I'm sure you're right that there are some schools are born to be. More of that they're going to see all that they're going to sort of -- didn't stay out of barker voice. And they. Got. Yeah I agree with you and I and I think that that's how Wright State that batted exactly what's necessary I think it's still respected -- notre kit. They know they do goofy and stupid statements but I think that accurate also feel a lot of disrespect I sometimes and I think the people they way to respect the kids. And the group's corporate -- -- and we also talked by the way. About bullying and can occur until about how I sometimes get to get into trouble or get better. A bullied by other kids or kids are police during that came out of the discussion as well let me just back kind of -- dialogue with which students per teacher I would certainly want drinkers that sort of dialogue because of pure respect. I completely agree with you so if people want to make contact people for example teachers. How they make that kind of contact. And what they can they can it's been Merrill group. And our -- to catch the movie dot com. -- they carried out thoroughly car opposition air and down in the end we can connect with the people actually handled Latin. DA they want the web site itself. It's actually dot com. They cannot collect our press inquiries -- all those various ways to connect. -- back to the folks they can actually help bakeries are those great lie. Think that's terrific idea and I really really encourage teachers and school board members and administrators and students to apply pressure to. These people they deal with on on the school board level on the school teacher level on the coaching level it's not important. And -- them maybe they'll Wilkes-Barre area school district will do that didn't Amanda -- go to a Myers high school. The she did it and as a matter of fact we've extended an invitation. Up a a personal invitation to -- area school districts to attempt. Well I know that the reason I bring up Amanda is because everybody was waiting to see when she'd have her baby. And everything worked out okay she has a brand new little girl I'm told. I decided baby is born not a couple days ago there and that she's really delighted and it's so interest staying because C. Well to visit California and she came back further career the tattered baby here which is not what that exactly what she expected. She's actually taking that -- is a sign of optimism that in some way as she goes back to California feeling that there are some. Can activity -- and so positive way try you know she's doing well. I am she was very excited that does so many people came out they hear their stories. Well the stories are important to stories are real and the stories need to continue to be told Robert May keep us posted always did the doctor. I think in six it's -- certain proud. Okay very goes Robert May produce a director of kids for cash. Go see the movie is.

Link: APOD: 2012 June 5 - Live: Watching for Venus to Cross the Sun
Explanation: Today Venus moves in front of the Sun. One way to follow this rare event is to actively reload the above live image of the Sun during the right time interval and look for an unusual circular dark dot. The smaller sprawling dark areas are sunspots. The circular dot is the planet Venus. The dark dot will only appear during a few very specific hours, from about 22:10 on 2012 June 5 through 4:50 2012 June 6, Universal Time. This transit is the rarest type of solar eclipse known -- much more rare than an eclipse of the Sun by the Moon or even by the planet Mercury. In fact, the next transit of Venus across the Sun will be in 2117. Anyone with a clear view of the Sun can go outside and carefully view the transit for themselves by projecting sunlight through a hole in a card onto a wall. Because this Venus transit is so unusual and visible from so much of the Earth, it is expected to be one of the more photographed celestial events in history. The above live image on the Sun is being taken by the Earth-orbiting Solar Dynamics Observatory and can be updated about every 15 minutes.

Good find - I decided that only going to see anything of it live for about 15mins at 5am and that's assuming its not cloudy!
(But got a good look at the last one - I used to work at a school in Much Hoole where Jeremiah Horrocks did the first recorded Transit`observation )
...and the scary thing is that each and every one of those (significant) sun spots is probably bigger than the Earth!
Makes you think, doesn't it?
Its started
May as well stay up now and wait for the sun to come up in a few hours!

A hearing for a woman suspected of helping to hide the body of a Denver man in northwest Nebraska has been delayed again.
So Rose Siefke will have to wait until Oct. 17 to challenge the case against her. Prosecutors say Siefke helped her boyfriend, Andres Gonzalez, hide the body of Joshua Bullock.
Gonzalez was killed in June after a daylong standoff with police in Alliance where he wounded three officers.
Investigators believe she helped Andres Gonzalez hide Bullock's death. Bullock's pickup was found near Chadron in December. Human remains believed to be Bullock's were found in June.

The other day I was slacking off on Twitter and clicked a link through to a JV promotion that I had seen in a number of emails, but hadn't really taken much interest in. I hadn't heard of the guy doing the promotion, and to be quite honest the topic didn't seem to be the best match for this blog, though it does fit with the overall "Make Money Online" and "Work From Home" niches very well.

This is a slightly taboo subject because with many product launches there is a launch competition not only for sales, but also for pre-launch opt-ins.
If you are offering an incentive for people to just opt-in, there is a high possibility that that lead might be worth less than a lead that has viewed some launch material, and decided that they are interested in the product enough to hand over an email address.

text: Al Qaeda On the Rise, Obama's People Blame Snowden by Javier Manjarres 31 Jan 2014 View Discussion Share This: In response to Clapper: Al-Qaeda Not Really 'On the Run': I was in D.C. at the time this committee hearing was going on (I was at the Holder one, where Cruz ate his lunch) but couldn't attend. While he contradicts Obama, in regards to Al Qaeda, you knew that they would have to blame this whole Al Qaeda threat on someone-Snowden. James Clapper explained that Al-Qaeda is probably a larger threat than ever because the terror group is "much more globally dispersed" and because of intelligence leaks by Edward Snowden. Clapper made his statements before the Senate Intelligence Committee. (Didn't Clapper lie to Congress? Does anyone believe what he says when he testifies under oath?) In further testimony Clapper stated that NSA leaker Edward Snowden caused "profound damage," and terrorists are "going to school" on U.S. surveillance methods.

FOR MONTHS CARSON HAS BEEN SAYING, "What do I care? I'm out of here in May." Well, his devil-may-care attitude is getting more pronounced—and seeming less like a joke each week. Just before going to commercial after showing a bleep-filled clip of Mercedes Ruehl in The Fisher King, Johnny turned to the camera and announced, "And, by the way, the mystery words were *$%# and #@*&." The expletives were, of course, deleted again, but it didn't take a lip-reader to see what Carson was saying. Those NBC censors better keep their fingers on the bleepers. Johnny is going out with a bang.

Lots of tears were shed – especially by Sapna Bhavnani and Vishal Karwal – when Dinesh Lal Yadav 'Nirahua' got evicted yesterday evening. And soon after the sob-fest in Bigg Boss 6, the inmates were called in to give their nominations. While Sana Khan emerged as everyone's favourite, Delnaz too got high number of votes and became safe.
Sapna was asked to exercise her power as captain and save three others. She chose to save the remaining girls – Aashka Goradia, Urvashi Dholakia and Karishma Kotak. As a result all the men got nominated for eviction that will take place on Friday.
So it's decided that one of the five dudes – Imam Siddique, Vishal Karwal, Rajev Paul, Niketan Madhok and Santosh Shukla – will get voted out. But who do you think is in real danger? Will it be the bizarrely entertaining Imam, the chocolate boy Vishal, the over-emotional Rajev, the model-guy Niketan or the coquettish Santosh?
Surely, it's time to wait and watch as the women rejoice their 'safe' status. But till then you tell us people – who do you think will get evicted on Friday?

Old Ninth Street Bridge
"Workmen Start Razing 80-Year-Old Landmark, Bridge at Ninth Street. Removal of Flooring Is First Step in Replacing of Structure as Ordered by War Department--Work on Seventh Street Span Advancing." The Gazette Times, 28 February 1925.
Pittsburgh's 80-year-old landmark, the Ninth Street Bridge yesterday began to pay the penalty of age when a corps of workmen relentlessly hacked away at the flooring in the preliminary stage of razing the old structure that connects downtown Pittsburgh and the North Side. At some later day, which at this time is quite uncertain, the county commissioners say, the old span will be replaced by a new modern type bridge, on orders of the War Department.
And while the Ninth Street Bridge is falling, the progress of the new new Seventh Street Bridge, which is under construction, becomes more marked. The fruits of labor appear in concrete form as the first pier on the north side of the river peeps out over the surface of the water from the caisson in which it is being built. After an inspection by county engineers, the announcement was made that the bridge probably will be completed in a little more than a year.
The old Ninth Street Bridge was built of a wooden superstructure in 1840 and was replaced in 1890 by a steel superstructure. Since then it served traffic until the War Department decided it should be replaced by a more modern span that would permit larger craft to pass under.

Type 2 diabetes is becoming a global pandemic. We know the consumption of eggs is related to the development of some other chronic diseases, what about diabetes? There appears to be a stepwise increase in risk as more and more eggs are consumed. One study found that eating just a single egg a week increased the odds of diabetes by 76%. Two eggs a week doubled the odds, and an egg a day tripled the odds.
Recent studies, profiled in my video Eggs and Diabetes, have confirmed the link. In 2009, Harvard researchers found that a single egg a day or more was associated with an increased risk of Type 2 diabetes in men and women. This finding has since been confirmed in Asia in 2011 and in Europe in 2012. Reducing egg consumption should start early in life, though, as it appears once we get into our 70s, it may be too late.
For those with diabetes, eggs may then hasten our death. Eating one egg or more a day appears to shorten anyone's lifespan, but may be even worse for those with diabetes, potentially doubling all-cause mortality, meaning egg-eating diabetics seem to live particularly short lives.
This is not good news for the egg industry. From a transcript of a closed meeting I got through the Freedom of Information Act, one egg industry advisor said, "Given the rate at which obesity and incidence of type II diabetes is growing in the US, any association between dietary cholesterol and type II diabetes could be a 'showstopper' that could overshadow the positive attributes in eggs."
More Freedom of Information Act insights into the egg industry can be found in:
Flax seeds may help control blood sugars (Flaxseeds for Diabetes) as well as Indian gooseberries (Amla Versus Diabetes), but our best bet may be a diet composed entirely of plants (How to Prevent Diabetes and How to Treat Diabetes).

A number of national health organizations-- U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, the Public Health Service, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have given nutrient density ratings that qualify certain foods as "powerhouse" foods.1 Powerhouse fruits and vegetables are defined as those that provide, on average, 10 percent or more per 100 calories of 17 qualifying nutrients that are deemed of public health importance by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and Institute of Medicine. including iron, zinc, potassium, numerous B vitamins (thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, folate, and B6), and vitamins A (as carotenoids), C, E, and K.
The powerhouse foods they list--all plant foods--contain a wealth of protective phytochemicals that are linked with reduced risk of chronic disease. Eight of the nutrients provided are deemed particularly protective against heart disease and cancer. Instead of a meal that is centered on turkey, an entree that is nearly devoid of phytochemicals, your health will get a big boost. Your taste buds will be happy too!
Identified powerhouse foods include winter squash, kale and other leafy greens (Chinese/napa cabbage, leaf or romaine lettuce, collard greens), Brussels sprouts, turnips, carrots, pumpkin, and lime or lemon. These can feature in a celebration meal that is satisfying, delicious, and beautiful! To round out a meal, add a salad (lettuce and berries), seasoned and baked tofu, gravy, cranberry sauce, and pumpkin pie.
Here are some recipes:
Kale and Red Pepper Holiday Wreath
Makes about 5 cups
From "Cooking Vegan" by Vesanto Melina RD and Joseph Forest. Book Publishing Co. 2012
The deep green kale, tossed with pieces of bright red bell pepper, provide a rich source of calcium, iron, potassium, the antioxidant vitamins A, C, and E, and omega 3 fatty acids. For a larger wreath, double the recipe. Including tahini as an ingredient is a delicious option, though the wreath will not be such a bright green.
Place kale in a steamer, cover, and steam over medium-high heat until the kale is soft to the bite. Drain in a colander and squeeze out any excess water. With a fork, combine the lemon juice, tamari, and tahini (if using) in a large bowl. Add the kale and toss to coat the leaves with dressing. Arrange on a warm platter to create a round wreath shape, leaving a clean open space in the center. Sprinkle with the red pepper and serve.
Holiday Winter Stuffed Squash
Makes 1 stuffed squash, about 8 servings, with 5 cups stuffing
From "Cooking Vegan" by Vesanto Melina RD and Joseph Forest. Book Publishing Co. 2012.
1 winter squash, about 5 lbs (Hubbard, butternut, acorn, kabocha, or turban)
Quinoa Stuffing
Pre heat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). Pierce the top of the squash with a sharp knife at 45 degree angle 2-inches (5 cm) over from the top. Pushing the knife blade away from your body, cut around the top of the squash and remove the cone-shaped top piece. Remove any fibrous material from the cone and set the top aside. Remove the seeds and pulp from the cavity of the squash with a spoon. Put the top back on the squash, put on a baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool for 15 minutes.
Bring 1-1/2 cups water to a boil over high heat in a small sauce pan. Stir in quinoa and salt, reduce heat to low, cover and cook for 15-20 minutes or until the liquid is absorbed. Put into a large bowl and set aside to cool. Heat 1/4 cup water in a skillet over medium heat and cook onion for 5 to 7 minutes or until tender. Add the garlic and celery and cook for 3 minutes. Stir into the cooled quinoa along with the corn, red pepper, sunflower seeds, parsley, lime juice, basil, dill, thyme, and pepper. Mix and adjust the seasoning.
Spoon the stuffing into the squash cavity. Leave a little space to allow stuffing to expand while baking. Set lid in place, return squash to baking sheet and bake for 45 to 60 minutes or until a toothpick can be easily inserted into the side of the squash. Leftover stuffing can be placed in a loaf pan, sprinkled with 2 - 3 tablespoons of water, covered, and heated in the oven for the last 20 minutes of the cooking time for the squash. Remove the squash from the oven and place on a warm serving platter. Slice into wedges and serve.

Turkeys are the routine centerpiece of many holiday meals, while chickens are a common "main course" for everyday dinners. Yet when you look closely at poultry, the health dangers may surprise you, and guide you to make life-affirming choices instead. Here are five hazards you should know about if you think that chicken and turkey are "health foods."
Chicken and turkey are portrayed as smart choices if you are trying to lose weight. Reality proves this is false advertising. A study in Europe followed 373,803 participants for an average of five years to see what foods were linked to weight gain over time. The strongest association was found for poultry.
The researchers point out that all meat is calorie-dense. According to the USDA, three ounces of light meat, roasted chicken (one "serving") contains 147 calories, while an equivalent amount of light meat, roasted turkey has 125 calories. This might not sound like much, until you realize that a "serving" is about the size of a deck of cards, while your stomach is about the size of a liter bottle. How many poultry servings would it take to fill that bottle? Lots of calories, and with zero associated fiber in the birds to make you feel full.
If you want to stop or reverse weight gain, try a whole foods, animal-free diet. Numerous studies consistently show that people who choose a plant-based lifestyle are leaner than those who eat animal foods, including poultry.
Several studies indicate that eating poultry and exposure to chickens and turkey over prolonged periods of time raise the risk of various kinds of cancer.
Researchers have tested the idea that viruses in chickens and turkeys that cause cancer may infect people, greatly increasing cancer likelihood. The easiest way to study this is in poultry workers, who have been found to have alarmingly higher incidence of liver, pancreatic, and brain cancer. Those who grow up on a poultry farm have an especially high incidence of blood cancers.
Does this mean that if you are not in one of these groups, you don't have to worry?

In a scathing expose of the USDA's new meat inspection program, the Washington Post quoted a representative from the meat inspectors union, who said:
"pig processing lines may be moving too quickly to catch tainted meat... Tremendous amounts of fecal matter remain on the carcasses. Not small bits, but chunks."
What about the other white meat?
In the video, Autopsy of Chicken Nuggets, you can see an infographic the Physician's Committee for Responsible Medicine created to highlight what they consider to be the five worst contaminants in chicken products. In their investigation of retail chicken products in ten U.S. cities, they found fecal contamination in about half the chicken they bought at the store. But with all the focus on what's in chicken products, we may have lost sight on what may be missing--such as actual chicken.
Researchers from the University of Mississippi Medical Center and the Baptist Medical Center recently published an "autopsy" of chicken nuggets in the American Journal of Medicine. The purpose was to determine the contents of chicken nuggets from two national food chains. Because chicken nuggets are popular among children, the researchers thought that parents should know more about what they may be feeding to their kids.
The nugget from the first restaurant was composed of approximately 50% skeletal muscle, with the remainder composed primarily of fat, blood vessels and nerves, and generous quantities of skin or gut lining and associated supportive tissue. The nugget from the second restaurant was composed of approximately 40% skeletal muscle with lots of other tissues, including bone.
"I was floored," said the lead investigator. "I had read what other reports have said is in them and I didn't believe it. I was astonished actually seeing it under the microscope." I profile some of those other pathology reports in my videos What's in a Burger? and What Is Really in Hot Dogs?
The researchers concluded that since actual chicken meat was not the predominant component of either nugget, the term "chicken" nugget was really a misnomer.
If we're going to eat something chicken-ish that isn't chicken meat, why not truly boneless chicken: Chicken vs. Veggie Chicken.

Used as a coloring agent in products ranging from colas and beer to gravies and soy sauce, caramel coloring may be the world's most widely consumed food coloring. It helps grocery stores sell more than a billion servings of food and beverages a day. Unfortunately, the manufacturing of certain artificial caramel colorings can lead to the formation of carcinogens such as 4-methylimidazole, which causes cancer in mice but not rats (or at least, not male rats). However, it is unclear whether humans are more like mice or rats in terms of their response to the carcinogen.
To be safe, California officially listed it as a carcinogen and started requiring warning labels on soft drinks containing more than 29 micrograms per serving. The soft drink industry was unsuccessful in opposing the action, so they were forced to reduce carcinogen levels in their products--but only in California. Buy Coke anywhere else, and it may have up to five times the limit (See Is Caramel Color Carcinogenic?).
There's another class of additives that the soda industry uses to make its soda brown (see Phosphate Additives in Meat Purge and Cola). There are other harmful additives in soda as well (Is Sodium Benzoate Harmful? and Diet Soda and Preterm Birth).
Similarly the junk food industry uses titanium dioxide to whiten processed foods (Titanium Dioxide & Inflammatory Bowel Disease).
The meat industry has also used potentially toxic additives for cosmetic purposes such as arsenic-containing drugs (Arsenic in Chicken) and phosphate additives in chicken to make poultry pink. Carbon monoxide is used to keep red meat red, and acanthoxanthins keep salmon pink (Artificial Coloring in Fish).
It's amazing the risks the food industry will take to alter appearances (Artificial Food Colors and ADHD).

Many of the diseases that are common in United States are rare or even nonexistent in populations eating mainly whole plant foods.
These so-called Western Diseases are some of our most common conditions:
These diseases are common in the West, but are rarities among plant-based populations.
A landmark study in 1959 I profiled in my video Cavities and Coronaries: Our Choice, for example, suggested that coronary heart disease was practically non-existent among those eating traditional plant-based diets in Uganda.
"Doctors in sub-Saharan Africa during the '30s and '40s recognized that certain diseases commonly seen in Western communities were rare in rural African peasants. This hearsay talk greeted any new doctor on arrival in Africa. Even the teaching manuals stated that diabetes, coronary heart disease, appendicitis, peptic ulcer, gallstones, hemorrhoids, and constipation were rare in African blacks who eat foods that contain many skins and fibers, such as beans and corn, and pass a bulky stool two or three times a day. Surgeons noticed that the common acute abdominal emergencies in Western communities were virtually absent in rural African peasants."
But did they have hard data to back it up? Yes.
Major autopsy series were performed. In one thousand Kenyan autopsies, there were "no cases of appendicitis, not a single heart attack, only three cases of diabetes, one peptic ulcer, no gallstones, and no evidence of high blood pressure" (which alone affects one out of three Americans).
Maybe the Africans were just dying early of other diseases and so never lived long enough to get heart disease? No. In the video One in a Thousand: Ending the Heart Disease Epidemic, you can see the age-matched heart attack rates in Uganda versus St. Louis. Out of 632 autopsies in Uganda, only one myocardial infarction. Out of 632 Missourians--with the same age and gender distribution--there were 136 myocardial infarctions. More than 100 times the rate of our number one killer. In fact, researchers were so blown away that they decided to do another 800 autopsies in Uganda. Still, just that one small healed infarct (meaning it wasn't even the cause of death) out of 1,427 patients. Less than one in a thousand, whereas in the U.S., it's an epidemic.
If heart disease is so rare in rural Africa, how do the local doctors even know what to look for? Though practically unheard of among the native population, the physicians are quite familiar with heart disease because of all the Westerners that immigrate to the country.
The famous surgeon Dr. Denis Burkitt insisted that modern medicine is treating disease all wrong:
"A highly unacceptable fact--that is rarely considered yet indisputable--is that, with rare exceptions, there is no evidence that the incidence of any disease was ever reduced by treatment. Improved therapies may reduce mortality but may not reduce the incidence of the disease."
Take cancer, for example, where the vast majority of effort is devoted to advances in treatment, and second priority is given to screening programs attempting early diagnosis. Is there any evidence that the incidence of any form of cancer has been reduced by improved treatment or by early detection? Early diagnosis may reduce mortality rates, and medical services can have a profoundly beneficial effect on sick people, but neither have little (if any) effect on the number of people becoming ill. No matter how fancy heart disease surgery gets, it's never going to reduce the number of people falling victim to the disease.
Dr. Burkitt compared the situation to an engine left out in the rain:
"If an engine repeatedly stops as a consequence of being exposed to the elements, it is of limited value to rely on the aid of mechanics to detect and remedy the fault. Examination of all engines would reveal that those out in the rain were stopping, but those under cover were running well. The correct approach would then be to provide protection from the offending environment. However, considering the failing engine as the ailing patient, this is seldom the priority of modern medicine."
Dr. Burkitt sums it up with the analogy of The Cliff or the Ambulance:
"If people are falling over the edge of a cliff and sustaining injuries, the problem could be dealt with by stationing ambulances at the bottom or erecting a fence at the top. Unfortunately, we put far too much effort into the provision of ambulances and far too little into the simple approach of erecting fences."
And of course there are all the industries enticing people to the edge, and profiting from pushing people off.
If all plant-based diets could do is reverse our number one killer, then shouldn't that be the default diet until proven otherwise? The fact that it also appears to reverse other leading killers like diabetes and hypertension appears to make the case for plant-based eating overwhelming. So why doesn't the medical profession embrace it? It may be because of The Tomato Effect. Why don't many individual doctors do it? It may be because lifestyle medicine hurts the bottom line (see Lifestyle Medicine: Treating the Causes of Disease). Why doesn't the federal government recommend it? It may be because of the self-interest of powerful industries (see The McGovern Report). But you can take your destiny into your own hands (mouth?) and work with your doctor to clean up your diet and maximize your chances of living happily ever after.

Many of today's lifestyle medicine doctors, myself included, were greatly influenced by Nathan Pritikin, the nutrition pioneer who started reversing heart disease with a plant-based diet and exercise back in the 70s. (More on Nathan Pritikin in Engineering a Cure, Our Number One Killer Can Be Stopped, and The Answer to the Pritikin Puzzle.) But how did he come up with the idea of opening up arteries without drugs or surgery? We tend to think of rural China as a place with a fraction of our disease rates, but we may forget about Africa.
Pritikin was 43 when he was told by his cardiologist that he was going to die from a heart attack, so he began to live on a diet patterned after the black population in Uganda, a population living off plants that was essentially free from death from heart attacks. After curing his own heart disease with a plant-based diet, he went on to save the lives of thousands of others. What was the data that so convinced him?
Last year, the International Journal of Epidemiology reprinted a landmark article from the '50s that started out with a shocking statement: "In the African population of Uganda, coronary heart disease is almost non-existent." Our number one cause of death almost nonexistent? What were they eating? Plantains and sweet potatoes, other vegetables, corn, millet, pumpkins, tomatoes, and "green leafy vegetables are taken by all." Their protein was almost entirely from plant sources, and they had the cholesterol levels to prove it, similar to modern-day plant-eaters. "Apart from the effects of diet and of the blood cholesterol levels," the researchers couldn't figure out any other reasons for their freedom from heart disease.
These fifty-year-old findings are still relevant today. They showed "dietary intake to be a key, modifiable, established and well-recognized risk factor for heart attacks. This contrasts with the rather desperate search in recent decades for even newer cardiovascular risk factors." We have the only risk factor we need--cholesterol. We've known it for 50 years, and we can do something about it. See One in a Thousand: Ending the Heart Disease Epidemic.
As you can see in the video Cavities and Coronaries: Our Choice, according to the Editor-in-Chief of the American Journal of Cardiology, the only risk factor required for atherosclerotic plaques to form is elevated LDL, or "bad" cholesterol in our blood. Dr. William Clifford Roberts is the distinguished cardiac pathologist who doubles as the Editor-in-Chief of the American Journal of Cardiology. More from him in Eliminating the #1 Cause of Death and Heart Attacks and Cholesterol: Purely a Question of Diet.
To drop our LDL cholesterol, we need to drop our intake of three things: trans fat (found in junk food and animal foods - See Trans Fat in Meat and Dairy); saturated fat (found in mostly animal foods); and dietary cholesterol (found exclusively in animal foods). More on lowering LDL in Trans Fat, Saturated Fat, and Cholesterol: Tolerable Upper Intake of Zero.
What Dr. Shaper discovered is that heart disease may be a choice.
Like cavities.
People who lived over 10,000 years before the invention of the toothbrush pretty much had no cavities. Didn't brush a day in their lives, never flossed, no Listerine, no Waterpik--and yet, no cavities. Why? Because candy bars hadn't been invented yet! So why do people continue to get cavities when we know they're preventable though diet? Simple: because the pleasure people derive from dessert may outweigh the cost and discomfort of the dentist.
As long as people understand the consequences of their actions, as a physician what more can I do? If you're an adult and decide that the benefits outweigh the risks for you and your family, then go for it--I certainly enjoy the occasional indulgence (I've got a good dental plan!). But what if instead of the plaque on our teeth, we're talking about the plaque building up in our arteries? Then we're no longer just talking about scraping tarter. We're talking life and death.
The most likely reason our loved ones will die is heart disease. It's still up to each of us to make our own decisions as to what to eat and how to live, but we should make our choices consciously, educating ourselves about the predictable consequences of our actions.

In my video Fish Intake Associated With Brain Shrinkage, I discussed evidence suggesting that mercury exposure through fish intake during pregnancy may decrease the size of the newborn's brain. However, just because fish-eating mothers may give birth to children with smaller brains doesn't necessarily mean their children will grow up with neurological defects. In the video, Mercury vs. Omega-3s for Brain Development, you can see real-time functional MRI scans of teens whose moms ate a lot of seafood when pregnant. Because these kinds of scans can measure brain activity, as opposed to just brain size, we can more accurately determine if exposure to mercury and PCBs affected these kids. You can see an MRI of what a normal brain looks like when you flash a light in someone's eyes, but the MRI is significantly different for the mercury and PCB exposed brains, suggesting toxicant related damage to the visual centers in brain. (For more on the effect of mercury on teens, see Nerves of Mercury). Fish consumption may also increase the risk of our children being born with epilepsy.
So does maternal fish consumption have an effect on how smart our kids turn out? The DHA in fish--a long chain omega 3 fatty acid--is good for brain development, but mercury is bad for brain development. So a group of researchers looked at 33 different fish species to see what the net effect of these compounds would have on children's IQ. For most fish species, they found that "the adverse effect of mercury on the IQ scores of children exceeded the beneficial effects of DHA." In fact, so much brainpower may be lost from fish consumption that the United States may actually lose $5 billion in economic productivity every year.
For example, if pregnant women ate tuna every day, the DHA would add a few IQ points. But the mercury in that very same tuna would cause so much brain damage that the overall effect of eating tuna while pregnant would be negative, wiping out an average of eight IQ points. The only two fish that were more brain-damaging than tuna were pike and swordfish.
At the other end of the spectrum, the brain boosting effect of DHA may trump the brain damaging effects of mercury in salmon by a little less than one IQ point. Unfortunately, IQ only takes into consideration the cognitive damage caused by mercury, not the adverse effects on motor function and attention and behavior deficits. We think that attention span may be particularly vulnerable to developmental mercury exposure, probably due to damage to the frontal lobes of the brain.
And the IQ study didn't take into account the relatively high levels of PCBs in salmon and the accompanying concerns about cancer risk. Sustainability concerns are another wrinkle, as farm-raised salmon are considered a "fish to avoid." While king mackerel is considered a best choice for sustainability, the mercury levels are so high as to warrant avoiding consumption--exceeding both the FDA and EPA action levels for mercury contamination. But why risk any loss in intelligence at all when pregnant women can get all the DHA they want from microalgae supplements without any of the contaminants? We can then get the brain boost without the brain damage.

All fish contain small amounts of methylmercury, the most toxic form of mercury, and "fish consumption represents the main source of methylmercury exposure." In my videos Nerves of Mercury and Fish Fog, I discuss how mercury exposure through fish consumption, even within the government's safety limits, can have adverse neurological and behavioral effects on child development. Severe exposure can cause overt structural brain abnormalities like microcephaly, a shrunken brain disorder. But we didn't know whether low exposure could also affect brain size until recently.
Autopsy studies suggest mercury preferentially affects the developing cerebellum, so researchers used ultrasound to measure cerebellum size in newborns of mothers who had high body levels of mercury.
Let's put those levels into practical terms. In the video, Fish Intake Associated with Brain Shrinkage, you can see the results of a study measuring mercury concentration in human hair. Just one can of tuna a week raises human hair mercury concentration to levels nearly three times as high as the "high" group in the ultrasound study. So the bodies of the women suffering high mercury contamination were considered heavily contaminated, but even just a little canned tuna once in a while could bump our levels even higher. So the high really wasn't that high. But what did they find?
The researchers demonstrated that babies born to mothers with higher hair mercury levels had cerebellums up to 14% shorter than those born to mothers with lower hair mercury levels. They conclude that prenatal exposure to what may be considered low-levels of methylmercury does indeed influence fetal brain development as evidenced "by decreased size of a newborn's brain."
But what about the long chain omega-3 DHA in fish--isn't that necessary for healthy brain development? That's the topic of my video Mercury vs. Omega-3s for Brain Development.

The food industry, like the tobacco companies and other drug lords, has been able to come up with products that tap into the same dopamine reward system that keeps people smoking cigarettes, using marijuana, and eating candy bars (See Are Sugary Foods Addictive?). New research, highlighted in my video Are Fatty Foods Addictive? suggests that fat may have similar effects on the brain. If people are fed yogurt packed with butter fat, within 30 minutes they exhibit the same brain activity as those who just drank sugar water.
People who regularly eat ice cream (sugar and fat) have a deadened dopamine response in their brains in response to drinking a milkshake. It's similar to when drug abusers have to use more and more to get the same high. Frequent ice cream consumption "is related to a reduction in reward-region (pleasure center) responsivity in humans, paralleling the tolerance observed in drug addiction." Once we've so dulled our dopamine response, we may subsequently overeat in an effort to achieve the degree of satisfaction experienced previously, contributing to unhealthy weight gain.
What do fatty and sugary foods have in common? They are energy-dense. It may be less about the number of calories than their concentration. Consumption of a calorie-dilute diet doesn't lead to deadened dopamine responsivity, but a calorie-dense diet with the same number of calories does. It's like the difference between cocaine and crack: same stuff chemically, but by smoking crack cocaine we can deliver a higher dose quicker to our brain.
As an aside, I found it interesting that the control drink in these milkshake studies wasn't just water. They can't use water because our brain actually tastes water on the tongue (who knew!). So instead the researchers had people drink a solution "designed to mimic the natural taste of saliva." Ew!
Anyway, with this new understanding of the neural correlates of food addiction, there have been calls to include obesity as an official mental disorder. After all, both obesity and addiction share the inability to restrain behavior in spite of an awareness of detrimental health consequences, one of the defining criteria of substance abuse. We keep putting crap in our bodies despite the knowledge that we have a problem that is likely caused by the crap, yet we can't stop (a phenomena called the "pleasure trap").
Redefining obesity as an addiction, a psychiatric disease, would be a boon to the drug companies that are already working on a whole bunch of drugs to muck with our brain chemistry. For example, subjects given an opiate blocker (like what's done for people with heroin overdoses to block the effects of the drug) eat significantly less cheese -- it just doesn't do as much for them anymore when their opiate receptors are blocked.
Rather than taking drugs, though, we can prevent the deadening of our pleasure center in the first place by sticking to foods that are naturally calorically dilute, like whole plant foods. This can help bring back our dopamine sensitivity such that we can again derive the same pleasure from the simplest of foods (see Changing Our Taste Buds). And this is not just for people who are obese. When we regularly eat calorie dense animal and junk foods like ice cream, we can blunt our pleasure so that we may overeat to compensate. When our brain down-regulates dopamine receptors to deal with all these jolts of fat and sugar, we may experience less enjoyment from other activities as well.
That's why cocaine addicts may have an impaired neurological capacity to enjoy sex, and why smokers have an impaired ability to respond to positive stimuli. Since these all involve the same dopamine pathways, what we put into our body--what we eat--can affect how we experience all of life's pleasures.
So to live life to the fullest, what should we do? The food industry, according to some addiction specialists, "should be given incentives to develop low calorie foods that are more attractive, palatable and affordable so that people can adhere to diet programs for a long time." No need! Mother Nature beat them to it--that's what the produce aisle is for.
By starting to eat healthfully, we can actually change how things taste. Healthiest means whole plant foods, which tend to be naturally dilute given their water and fiber content. Not only is fiber also calorie-free, but one might think of it as having "negative" calories, given the fermentation of fiber in our bowel into anti-obesity compounds (as well as anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer compounds). For this reason, those eating plant-based diets eat hundreds of fewer calories without even trying. (See my video Nutrient-Dense Approach to Weight Management).

People have chewed coca leaves for at least 8,000 years as a mild stimulant without any evidence of addiction, but when certain components are isolated and concentrated into cocaine, we've got a problem. The same may be true of sugar--people don't tend to binge on bananas. The isolation of sugar from the whole food may be the reason we're more likely to supersize soda than sweet potatoes, or why we're less likely to eat too much corn on the cob, but can't seem to get enough high fructose corn syrup.
The overconsumption of sugar-sweetened diets has often been compared to drug addiction. However, until very recently this parallel was based more on anecdotal evidence than on solid scientific grounds. But now we have PET scans, imaging technology that can measure brain activity. It all started with a publication from the Institute of Clinical Physiology that showed decreased dopamine sensitivity in obese individuals. The heavier they were, the less responsive to dopamine they appeared to be. We see the same reduction in sensitivity in cocaine addicts and alcoholics, which "would suggest that a reduction in dopamine receptors is associated with addictive behavior irrespective of whether it is due to food or to addictive drugs, as seen in substance abusers."
Dopamine is considered the neurotransmitter primarily involved in the pleasure and reward center of our brain, helping to motivate our drive for things like food, water and sex--all necessary for the perpetuation of our species. It was healthy and adaptive for our primate brains to drive us to eat that banana when there wasn't much food around. But now that fruit is in fruit loop form, this adaptation has "become a dangerous liability." The original Coca-Cola formulation actually included coca leaf, but now, perhaps, its sugar content may be the addictive stand-in.
What about artificial sweeteners? Though some are less harmful than others (Erythritol May Be a Sweet Antioxidant as opposed to Aspartame-Induced Fibromyalgia), they could still have adverse effects regardless of their individual chemistry. See my 3-part series:
What about fatty foods like meat? Does fat have addictive qualities as well? Good question! Check out my video Are Fatty Foods Addictive?

In my videos Phosphate Additives in Meat Purge and Cola and Phosphate Additives in Chicken, I talked about the danger of phosphate and phosphate additives, and how phosphates are often added to chicken and turkey to help preserve the meat. But how often is poultry injected with phosphates? The vast majority of chicken products (more than 90%) were found to contain these additives. However, most packages did not list the additives on their label.
Sometimes they call the phosphate additives "flavorings" or "broth," and sometimes the labels don't say anything at all. In the video, How to Avoid Phosphate Additives, you can see the different ways phosphate additives have been listed (if they are listed at all) on ingredient labels. I'd recommend minimizing one's intake of anything with the four letters: "phos". These additives are also used in junk foods and fast food. Some products have phosphorus and aluminum additives. We see this a lot in processed cheeses. One grilled cheese sandwich may exceed the World Health Organization's provisional tolerable daily intake of aluminum by 428%. (I've previously touched on the aluminum in cheese in Aluminum in Vaccines vs. Food). More concerning, though, are the levels of lead in some venison (Filled Full of Lead) and mercury in tuna (The Effect of Canned Tuna on Future Wages).
The food industry no longer has to list phosphorus content on the nutrition facts label. There have been calls from the public health community to mandate that phosphorus content of foods be included back on the nutrition facts label, but I'm not holding my breath.
All these studies bring home the same strong message, "phosphorus-containing additives are present in most meat products and significantly increase the phosphorus content. Moreover, the lack of this information in the Nutrition Facts labels and even in nutrition databases prevents patients and dietitians from accurately estimating the phosphorus content of their food and their daily intake."

In my video Phosphate Additives in Meat Purge and Cola, I talked about the danger of phosphorus additives in food. However, when surveyed, most future medical professionals were insufficiently aware--in fact, two-thirds had no clue--of the risks related to prolonged high dietary phosphate intake. Even if they knew it was a problem, they didn't know which foods had added phosphates. 99% knew that sugar was added to soda, but only 7% knew that phosphates were added. I bet even fewer knew that it's injected into most packages of meat.
Though this practice remains banned in Europe, 11 different phosphate salts are currently allowed to be injected into meat and poultry in the United States. This despite the fact that phosphate is considered an arterial toxin--causing our arteries to stiffen up within just two hours of consumption. Phosphate additives may also make poultry more dangerous from a food safety standpoint.
Phosphate additives may increase the number of Campylobacter bacteria in chicken exudates. Chicken exudate is the same as poultry purge (colloquially known as chicken "juice"), "the fluid that seeps out from processed poultry carcasses and is often found to be contaminated with considerable numbers of Campylobacter bacteria. It is comprised of water, blood, fats, and other materials added to the poultry during processing." If chicken isn't injected with phosphate, the exudates seeping into the package may grow about 100 Campylobacter bacteria. But, add some phosphate to the carcass, and up to a hundred million bacteria may grow.
Why does adding phosphate to poultry increase the number of Campylobacter bacteria? It may be because phosphates increase the survival of Campylobacter--by 100 fold or more. The infectious dose for Campylobacter has been shown to be as little as 500 organisms. How much might there be in chicken? 100,000 can be easily recovered from washes of whole chicken carcasses.
So what does a million times more food-poisoning bacteria mean for the risk to consumers? A mere hundred fold increase in these fecal matter bacteria can mean a thirty fold difference in the number of human outbreaks of Campylobacter, which can leave patients paralyzed (see my video Poultry and Paralysis). But, if the poultry industry doesn't add phosphates, how are they (in their words) going to "enhance the moisture absorbance, color, and flavor of the meat and reduce product shrinkage?"
Other concerning additives used by the meat industry include asthma-type drugs (Ractopamine in Pork), bacteria-eating viruses (Viral Meat Spray), larvae (Maggot Meat Spray), Arsenic in Chicken, nitrosamines (Prevention Is Better Than Cured Meat), and antibiotics (Drug Residues in Meat).
Since phosphate additives don't have to be listed on the nutrition label, how do we avoid them? All in my video How to Avoid Phosphate Additives.

In my video, Treating Kidney Failure Through Diet, I profiled research suggesting that the use of a plant-based diet for patients with kidney failure would be beneficial. An important function of our kidneys is to filter out excess phosphorus from our bloodstream, so a decline in kidney function can lead to the build-up of phosphorus in our bodies. This in turn can cause something called metastatic calcification, where our heart valves and muscles and other parts of the body can buildup mineral deposits, eventually potentially resulting in bad things like skin necrosis, gangrene, and amputations. Therefore, controlling dietary phosphorus intake is the lynchpin of successful prevention of metastatic calcification. While both plant foods and animal foods have phosphorus, our bodies seem better able to handle phosphorus excretion from plants, so a plant-based diet may help protect against this dreadful condition.
However, we're beginning to realize that absorbing too much phosphorus isn't good for anyone, even those with healthy kidneys. Having high levels in our blood has been found to be an independent predictor of heart attacks and mortality in the general population, increasing the risk not only of kidney failure, but also of heart failure, heart attacks, coronary death, and overall death. Dietary intake of phosphate is an important matter not just for persons with kidney disease, but for everybody. It's thought to cause damage to blood vessels, to accelerate the aging process, and even, potentially, to hurt our bones by contributing to osteoporosis via a disruption of hormonal regulation. The estimated average requirement of phosphorus is less than 600 mg a day, but the estimated average intake in the United States is nearly twice that. How do we stay away from too much of the stuff?
In the video, Phosphate Additives in Meat Purge and Cola, we can see the different levels of phosphorus in different foods. It looks like many plant foods have as much phosphorus as many animal foods. So why are plant-based diets so effective in treating kidney failure patients? Because most of the phosphorus in plant foods is found in the form of phytic acid, which we can't digest. Therefore, while plant and animal foods may have similar phosphate contents, the amount that is bioavailable differs. In plant foods, the bioavailability of phosphates is usually less than 50%, while the bioavailability of most animal products is up around 75%.
So when we adjust for how much actually gets into our system, plant foods are significantly better. It's like the absorption of heme and non-heme iron: our bodies can protect themselves from absorbing too much plant-based iron, but can't stop excess muscle and blood-based (heme) iron from animals slipping through the intestinal wall (see my video Risk Associated With Iron Supplements).
The worst kind of phosphorus is in the form of phosphate additives (which are absorbed nearly 100%) that are added, for example, to cola drinks. Why is phosphate added to cola? Without the added phosphate, so many glycotoxins would be produced that the beverage would turn pitch black (see my video on Glycotoxins). Thus, cola drinks owe their brown color to phosphate.
Phosphate additives play an especially important role in the meat industry, where they are used as preservatives for the same reason: to enhance a meat product's color. Just like the dairy industry adds aluminum to cheese, the meat and poultry industries "enhance" their products by injecting them with phosphates. If one looks at meat industry trade journals and can get past all the macabre ads for "head dropping robots for the kill floor," you'll see all ad after ad for injection machines. Why? Because of "increased profitability." Enhanced meats have better color and less "purge."
Purge is a term used to describe the liquid that seeps from flesh as it ages. Many consumers find this unattractive, so the industry views phosphate injection as a win-win. When chicken is injected with phosphates, the "consumer benefits through the perception of enhanced quality," and the processor benefits from increased yield because they just pump it up with water and they sell it by the pound. The problem is that it can boost phosphorus levels in meat nearly 70%, a "real and insidious danger" not only for kidney patients, but for us all.
Another toxic addition to alter the color of meat is arsenic-containing drugs fed directly to chickens (see my video Arsenic in Chicken). Carbon monoxide is used to keep red meat red, anthoxanthins keep salmon pink (Artificial Coloring in Fish) and titanium dioxide is used to whiten processed foods (Titanium Dioxide & Inflammatory Bowel Disease). I'm amazed by the risks the food industry will take to alter food cosmetically (more on this in Artificial Food Colors and ADHD).
There are other harmful additives in soda as well (Is Sodium Benzoate Harmful? and Diet Soda and Preterm Birth).
What else is in poultry purge (chicken "juice")? Find out in my video, Phosphate Additives in Chicken.
