1 in 10 employers admits gender pay gap
One in ten employers admits to paying women less than men for jobs at the same level, according to a YouGov survey for the charity Young Women's Trust. Nearly half say publishing gender pay gaps will not make a difference to pay and a fifth think equal pay will never be achieved.
The survey of 800 HR decision-makers shows that it's not just the BBC that has a problem with under-paying women. 10 per cent of those asked in the private sector and 13 per cent in the public sector said they were aware of women being paid less in their workplace.
In the UK, the full-time gender pay gap is 14 per cent. At the slow rate it is narrowing, it will take another 50 years to close the gap. By then, today's young women will have retired. Many employers think the gap will never be closed.
Young Women's Trust research shows that the pay gap for young women apprentices is even bigger than the average. They earn 21 per cent less than their male counterparts, leaving them £2,000 a year worse off. Often this is because the sectors women tend to work in, like care, administration and retail, are more likely to be poorly paid.
The government is now making organisations publish their gender pay gaps by April 2018 but employers doubt the effectiveness of this. 44 per cent of those making hiring decisions say the measure introduced last April will not lead to any change in pay levels. Women employers are even more pessimistic than men, with more than half saying it will not work.
Young Women's Trust chief executive Dr Carole Easton OBE said:
"We need urgent action to close the gap. Gender pay gap reporting is a great step forward but does not go far enough to close the gap. The new legislation will only be effective if the government puts in place and enforces penalties for firms that fail to report their pay gaps accurately. Where pay gaps do exist, like at the BBC, Young Women's Trust would like to see that companies are obliged to put in place plans to reduce them.
"Pay transparency alone will not change the gender stereotypes that often determine the types of roles men and women take and the industries they work in. We need action to support young women into male-dominated areas if we are to achieve equal pay. Providing more part-time and flexible working opportunities, for example, including for apprenticeships, would help many women balance work and family life.
"Without action, today's young women face a lifetime of unequal pay."
Young Women's Trust is working to help young women into the better-paid male-dominated apprenticeships to help close the gender pay gap.
Notes to editor:
Young Women's Trust is a charity that supports and represents women in England and Wales aged 16-30 trapped by low or no pay and facing a life of poverty. The charity provides services and runs campaigns to make sure that the talents of young women don't go to waste.
- Young Women's Trust commissioned YouGov to conduct a survey of 800 HR decision-makers between 5 April and 3 May 2017. The survey showed that:
- 10 per cent, or one in ten, said they were aware of women being paid less than men for jobs at the same level in their workplace in the past year. In large organisations, this number increased to 13 per cent, or one in eight;
- 44 per cent (51 per cent of women and 40 per cent of men) agreed that new gender pay gap reporting requirements will not lead to organisations taking action to close the gender pay gap. 23 per cent neither agreed nor disagreed and 11 per cent did not know;
- 18 per cent, or one in five, said women's average earnings will never be as high as men's. A further ten per cent said it would take longer than 25 years to achieve pay equality.
- The current overall gender pay gap for full time workers is 13.9 per cent. This is calculated by comparing the hourly mean earnings for men and women, as outlined in the Office for National Statistics' annual survey of hours and earnings.
- The Office for National Statistics' annual survey of hours and earnings shows the pay gap is falling by just 0.2 percentage points a year. If this continues, it will take 47 years to achieve pay parity between men and women.
- Young Women's Trust research has found that the gap for apprentices is bigger. There is an hourly gender pay gap among apprentices of £1.03, which represents a 17.6 per cent gap. A young woman apprentice working a 35 hour week would, on average, earn £8,772.40 a year. A young man working the same hours would earn £10,674 a year. This is an annual difference of £1,874.60. Apprentice hourly pay rates are based on a Young Women's Trust poll of 1,269 young people conducted by ComRes in 2015 and published in the 'Making Apprenticeships Work for Young Women' report in 2016.

This blog is an interview with Weddingsonline.ie. Ive picked their brains on what we need to be looking out for in terms of key wedding trends and here you go….
Dresses: What styles are going to be popular?
The retro tea length dress has been so popular for the last few years and will continue to be for the quirky bride who wants to bring some retro style into her day. These 50s style dresses are typically well suited to ladies with curves, as they accentuate the waist and show off a bit of leg!
Another style we love is the mermaid style gown, perfected by Enzoani for 2013. It's a tough one to pull off as there's no hiding in it, but in terms of elegance, sexiness, style and femininity, it's a hard shape to beat.
Art deco styles (20s/30s Great Gatsby style dresses) are gaining in popularity too. These incredibly detailed often hand beaded gowns tend to be for women with slim, or athletic shapes and add a real vintage factor to the bride's style – you can find this style of dress in collections by Jenny Packham, Yolan Cris, Amanda Wakeley… In terms of the 'statement' trend for 2013, for me, it's definitely the back – beaded, lace, bows, or nonexistent (some styles are dangerously low this year!) – the back is a real point of interest for bridal designers this year.
Colour Schemes: What are the popular bridesmaids, floral and décor colours?
Blush pink appeared on bridal catwalks this year in floral embellishments, belts and trains, and has transferred into decor and flowers. It's the perfect colour for those going for a muted palette, and want an elegant, somewhat understated scheme but that still looks romantic and pretty. Another colour we're seeing making its way to bridal, and particularly to bridesmaids' dresses, is emerald green. It's a stunning statement colour that works on pretty much every skin tone, and gives a real depth and richness to a wedding palette.
Guests Attending: What are the styles that guests attending a wedding should look out for – are there new patterns?
Guests are tending towards a more casual style of dress for weddings, due mostly to the fact that full length formal dresses tend to be more expensive and are usually never worn again! Bright floral patterns are great for summer weddings – and particularly marquee weddings – and don't have to be accessorised too much (ie a hat would be overkill, so a cute slide or hair band will do the trick). For dresses, below-the-knee styles are usually the best bet if you're not sure what style is most appropriate. Really it depends on the style of the wedding and on the guest's personal style as to what they wear, a tip is that you can usually gauge from the stationery or maybe even from the couple's personal wedding website what the style of the wedding is and just dress according to that. However I will say that one trend that is huge in fashion this year and one I think guests should AVOID is the two-piece with the exposed midriff. I can't imagine there's a style of wedding suited to that look. Also, don't wear white. Or cream. Or 'off white'. It's not cool.
Venue: Décor: We've seen a huge surge in handmade, folksy, DIY styles – will this be even bigger or will novelty wear off?
The funny thing is this is not only just for weddings! Handmade, DIY, folksy style is EVERYWHERE. You see it with the increasing popularity of sites like Etsy.com, and programs like The Great British Bake Off. Bunting, floral accents, chalkboards, burlap style stationery, Polaroid guest books, handmade photo booth backdrops etc are still popping up in weddings (as they are in home decor shops, restaurants, coffee shops, pubs and clubs) and it's just a sign of the times – it's become the anti-'big wedding' which some people equate with pre-recessionary times of overspending and everything that goes with that. The trend will definitely carry on this year, and may get more popular but like all trends it's not for everyone and even though it sometimes seems like the only way to style a wedding (and if you're an avid blog reader or Pinner, it probably does!) it's only one, and if it's not your retro china cup of chai, don't worry about it.
Unique Touches: Is there anything that you are seeing that is completely different to the usual wedding format?
Cheese platters and cake buffets instead of the traditional wedding cake – for many brides it's all about making the wedding personal and making guests feel special (individual notes for guests, family/friends involved in ceremony, table names, family photos, flip flop baskets, alternative bouquets and alternative guestbooks, photobooths)
Budget: Are they getting more expensive- are prices going up?
According to our recent wedding survey (1700 brides surveyed) weddings in Ireland continue to be an expensive event, with people prepared to spend significant amounts on their big day. While the most popular bracket was the €15,000-€20,000 (24%), over 21% of respondents still planned to shell out between €20,000 and €25,000 on their day.

About the Book
Award-winning Broadway actress Leighanne Webster has it all until an on-stage panic attack brings her career crashing to the ground. Returning to England to help produce the annual Robin Hood Festival play could be the diversion Leighanne needs. But with ex-fiancé, Jamison Blake, as the play's director focusing on her new job won't be easy. Breaking his engagement with Leighanne so she could pursue her dream of being a Broadway star was the hardest thing Jamison Blake ever did. When she returns to Nottingham, his heart insists he made a mistake. Can he convince her to give their relationships another try, or will he have to let her go again? This time, forever.
My Perspective
I thought this was a sweet story about rekindling old love. But what I enjoyed even more was reading about Leighanne's journey. Here is a woman who was in the limelight, but then had it taken away from her. In a move that probably required some humility on her part, she moves back home to help her sister out and possibly runs the risk of being in the limelight again. That must have been very difficult and I enjoyed how the author showed her nervousness and weaknesses here. It made her feel more like a real character to me.
This was a quick read for me. I found myself intrigued by the subplot. Why did these mysterious people want Jamison to keep tabs on Leighanne and what was in it for them? It provided a bit of mystery that kept my interest from page to page. I also appreciated the author keeping prayer and the sharing of the gospel alive! I love seeing that in stories in a realistic way. I think it gives us all the hope that we can outwardly say things as well.
I received a complimentary copy of this book through CelebrateLit. I was not required to write a favorable review. All thoughts and opinions are 100% my own.

Good day everyone! Here we are again sharing goodies with you. And yes, it's all free.
This time we are featuring digital wallpapers design: R for Rakim Gizlipa Series. It is a tribute to Ottoman Master Calligrapher Mustafa Rakim (1758-1826) from us. Inspired by the craftsmanship of Mustafa Râkım, original letterings are taken after his original mufradat (basic letterings) manual. So in these wallpapers, we feature the Arabic Thuluth letter: Raw' which is equivalent of letter R in Roman/Latin.
The letter Raw' or R, which is the initial letter for Rakim has 3 different appearances. It is digitally vector-traced and composed into series of graphic wallpapers. These letters are arranged in a specific manner to induce the calligraphic qualities of the original letterings, repeated in specific orientations and harmonised with colour combinations that reflects quiet, clean-space appeal when it's being used as digital wallpaper across all devices. Certain graphic features are in form of a logomark or emblems which all made up of just the same letterings. Through this, we focussed on cleaner visual backdrops for a comfortable digital work space on the eyes when used on devices like phones, tablets and computer screens. So have a try, download them and feel it on your device screens!
There's a total of 24 pieces of wallpaper designs, which accommodates UHD 4K resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels. These works are basically the author's practise on graphic arts as well as an attempt to gain a deeper understanding of the elements of classical Arabic/Islamic calligraphy through digital intervention. We hope through these, calligraphy enthusiasts may be exposed to essences of classical calligraphy by past masters with deeper appreciation.
To learn about who is Mustafa Rakim please click this link!
And to view our graphic art series, click here: R for Rakim – Calligraphic Art Series 2019.
And to get your free wallpapers, click here: R for Rakim – Gizlipa Series: Wallpaper Designs. Or click the image below. Don't forget to follow the instructions!

UPDATE: Man charged with deliberately lighting house fire
UPDATE: A MAN has been charged with an act of arson after a family lost everything in a house fire at the weekend.
The 37-year-old, who police say is known to the family, was arrested on Monday and has been charged with damage property by fire.
He was bail refused and has been ordered to undergo a mental health assessment.
Once released from Coffs Harbour Base Hospital he is due to have a court date assigned.
MONDAY: COFFS Clarence Police are currently holding a man in custody in relation to yesterday's house fire.
Police have arrested a 37-year-old man over the incident after their investigation.
The man is undergoing mental health assessments today.
Police said investigating officers will assess the case at the completion of the assessments.
EARLIER: A FIRE has completely gutted a family's home on Oriana Street this afternoon, with emergency services having to battle to put out the blaze.
The fire occurred just after 3pm, with emergency services getting a 000 call to attend the scene around 3.20pm
Coffs Harbour Fire and Rescue station commander Steve Ellis said neighbours were battling the flames with hoses when they arrived.
"We were redirected from a bush fire to come here and when we arrived the house was well alight with flames out through the front windows," commander Ellis said.
"The neighbours were in attendance with garden hoses and our crew quickly got to work and extinguished the fire and searched the building for any occupants."
Commander Ellis said no occupants were found inside the building, with paramedics assisting kittens who had been affected by the fire.
Commander Ellis said he was unsure whether the home had fire alarms, but it will form part of the investigation.
"We don't have an idea how the fire started yet, we're still in the process of extinguishing hot spots in the building.
"Police are on scene and are speaking with the occupants and the matter will be investigated by the police.
"It's a timely reminder to people to make sure their house keeping is in order.
"There's a fair amount of piled up, disused material under this building which will take a while to clear out and make sure it's fully extinguished."

Barn storing gas cylinders and charity goods destroyed in huge blaze
PUBLISHED: 17:08 05 May 2018 | UPDATED: 09:48 06 May 2018
A huge fire at a barn could be seen for miles around.
About 25 firefighters tackled the blaze and managed to stop it spreading to a nearby house.
Crews were called to Sea Palling Road, Ingham at about 11.40am on Saturday, May 5 to reports of an agricultural building, around 32ft by 22ft in size, on fire.
The house, barn and surrounding land are owned by Paul and Cynthia Meale who were not there at the time.
Emry Gough, station manager, said: "When we arrived we found a significant, well-developed fire, which could be seen for miles around.
"We had five appliances initially. There was a concern that the fire was going to spread to a domestic property close by. There were also a significant number of propane and bupane gas cylinders - about seven in total - in the building, plus asbestos.
"The barn was used to store furniture and there was significant loss and damage.
"We used defensive tactics to fight the fire, which means we did it from a distance. We used monitors and jets."
Fire crews returned to the scene later on Saturday. The cause of the blaze is not yet known.
Norfolk police and the East of England Ambulance Service also attended, as per standard procedure, plus the Environment Agency.
The alarm was raised by family friend Graham Cogman who was driving by. He said: "I saw big black smoke and called the fire brigade and tried to get some items away from the blaze."
The barn contained furniture and other items too large to be taken to Jimmy Tooley's fundraising charity shop in Stalham High Street, where funds for Stalham Youth Club, which is run by Mr Meale, are raised.
Mr Meale's wife Cynthia said: "We had a visitor to the shop who said our barn was on fire, which came out of the blue. I don't know how much the stock would have been worth."
Meanwhile, three fire crews quickly dealt with a blaze at a flat in Thurston Road, Lowestoft, at around 6pm on Friday, May 4.

The great thing about life is perspective. You can use the information intended for one purpose, but with a different perspective you can look from a different angle, you can see an entirely new conclusion. My hope is to walk you down the road to see that we have missed one of the most basic building blocks of performance in sport, oxygen.
The question I have always wanted to answer is how Native Americans were able to go on physically demanding hunts, maintain a slendor, muscular build without motor learning research performed during practice sessions or treadmills for endurance work or completed Olympic lifts in their weight room. So how could it be that they were able to accomplish such feats of endurance and strength without all the training?
My first hypothesis is oxygen and our current lack there of, in our current lives.
Here are my thoughts that lead me to this conclusion.
I realize that additional details may be needed to connect these dots into a more detailed, comprehensive study, suffice to say that increasing your oxygen intake would benefit athletes, both in the short and long run.
Is Fluoride To Blame?
By Mike Barrett, Infowars, February 25, 2015
Adding to the evidence that backs many U.S. communities' decisions to end water fluoridation, a recent study has found that fluoride within our water supply may be fueling thyroid issues experienced by millions of Americans, leading to depression and more.
After analyzing 98% of GP practices in England, the study found specifically that rates of hypothyroidism (an underactive thyroid) were 30% more likely in areas that fluoridated their water. In the study, it equated to approximately 15,000 needlessly suffering from the ailment.
As mentioned, hypothyroidism is an issue that affects millions – often without anyone knowing it. It's an issue that can lead to depression, weight gain, fatigue, aching muscles, weakness, and much more. While there are a number of causes of hypothyroidism, as well as numerous hypothyroidism natural treatments, this recent study suggests that limiting fluoride ingestion is one many should consider.
The study abstract's findings concluded:
"Findings We found that higher levels of fluoride in drinking water provide a useful contribution for predicting prevalence of hypothyroidism. We found that practices located in the West Midlands (a wholly fluoridated area) are nearly twice as likely to report high hypothyroidism prevalence in comparison to Greater Manchester (non-fluoridated area)"
Professor Stephen Peckham, of the University's Centre for Health Service Studies (CHSS), said that research was 'observational,' and thus no definitive conclusions should be drawn about cause and effect. He also notes how other sources of fluoride were not taken into account, such as toothpaste, food, or other drinks.
In the end, professor Peckham does say that a switch to other approaches to protecting tooth health should be considered.
You can Prevent Fluoridate Ingestion, and Prevent Any Potential Damage
In the guise of protecting and strengthening our teeth, the U.S. government has been adding fluoride to public water supplies for decades. But due to health toxicity and health concerns, many communities have voted to end fluoridation locally. However, if your city hasn't made the shift yet, don't worry; you can still avoid ingesting this substance.
While helping to end water fluoridation is the most official way to end fluoride consumption, there are numerous measures you can take to not only avoid fluoride, but reverse the damage it might have done.
Start by investing in a high quality water filtration system that removes fluoride. The filter will note if it filters our fluoride or not, but if you don't want to look, you can't go wrong with a reverse osmosis system. Just be sure to add in some apple cider vinegar or Himalayan sea salt to re-mineralize the water.
Additionally, you can utilize selenium, tamarind, and especially iodine to combat fluoride exposure, A compound in the spice turmeric has even been found to attenuate neurotoxicity induced by fluoride, meaning that the spice turmeric can prevent and even reverse damage from exposure to toxic fluoride.
Tell us what you think about water fluoridation – have you fought for your right to drink clean water?

In an attempt to curb the mass rush for food change and reform, psychiatry has green lighted a public relations push to spread awareness about their new buzzword "orthorexia nervosa," defined as "a pathological obsession for biologically pure and healthy nutrition." In other words, experts are saying that our demand for nutrient-dense, healthful food is a mental disorder that must be treated.
CNN, Fast Company, Popular Science, and other top outlets have all began to trumpet the talking points on cue relatively recently:
"Orthorexia nervosa is a label designated to those who are concerned about eating healthy. Characterized by disordered eating fueled by a desire for "clean" or "healthy" foods, those diagnosed with the condition are overly pre-occupied with the nutritional makeup of what they eat".
In short, if you turn your back on low quality, corporate food containing known cancer causing toxic additives and a rich history of dishonesty rooted in a continuous "profits over people" modus operandi, then you may suffer from a mental illness. The cherry on top is that if you have the pseudo-science labeled disorder of orthorexia nervosa, you will be prescribed known toxic, pharmaceutical drugs from some of the same conglomerate corporations that you are trying to avoid by eating healthy in the first place.
Orthorexia has not yet found its way into the latest edition of the psychiatric bible, the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM), yet is commonly being lumped in with other eating disorders. Stepping back and looking at the ones pushing this label on us shows highly questionable motives.
Psychiatry as a whole is deeply in bed with a pharmaceutical industry that makes the drugs to "treat" every one of these "disorders." It is often these companies that are wielding influence behind the scenes to invent more mental health categories with their toxic products as the answer. This latest media push to popularize orthorexia as a mental disorder with a goal to marginalize or derail the food revolution appears to have been dead on arrival.
The psychiatric community has even deemed creativity to be a mental illness.
As the people continue to walk away from the broken medical and agricultural/food systems like any abusive relationship, the food makers are willing to do anything to maintain their waning control. Organic and non-GMO food markets have exploded in the last 5 years, so much so that any corporation wishing to not follow the trend risks financial hardship or ruin. In addition, pharmaceutical companies are feeling the strain as less people want their toxic medications and crippling side effects.
Perhaps some people to take it too far to the point of self-harm, but the problem we face with a toxic food system is a much larger threat. In closing, let's be aware of some of the overall BS fed to us by the pharmaceutical bankrolled industry of psychiatry. When healthy eating and creativity are mental issues, something is amiss.

Stephen and Kate Miller talk about the concept of nutrient dense foods and attempt to answer the question, "Is food what they say it is?"
In today's world, you choose to eat healthy and you show up at the grocery store to pick-up fruits and vegetables. But are items really food? Is the genetically modified tomato as good as the non-gmo, organic, locally grown tomato? This and other questions around the concept of nutrient dense foods and the quality of food sources are covered. For the complete interview, visit here.
Bio on Kate Miller: Food has long been a focus in Kate's life, and she has worked in numerous kitchens and dining rooms in the US and Europe. Concerns about the quality of factory farmed food and social justice issues inherent in modern agriculture led to deeper involvement in the production end of our food supply. In 2010, after completing her M.A. and spending 6 months in India under the tutelage of organic food activist Dr. Vandana Shiva, Kate took a leap and began growing vegetables and herbs organically at Weathertop Farm. Every season is an adventure, and since that time we have added pork, chicken, and fruit production as well as a line of foraged foods through our business Wild Foraged. Foraging has been the natural progression in this journey to produce and share local, healthy foods with our community. Kate believes that wild foods, including wild medicinals, should play a distinct role in every person's quest for a healthy and happy balanced lifestyle.

The number of industrial chemicals with known links to neurodevelopmental disabilities like autism has more than doubled in the past seven years, according to new research published in The Lancet Neurology.
As rates of autism and attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) increase worldwide, researchers believe widespread exposure to these chemicals among children may be contributing to a "silent epidemic" of people with neurodevelopmental disabilities.
Based on an analysis of previous studies, researchers added six new toxins to a list of chemicals believed to pose a threat to the brains of fetuses and young children: manganese, fluoride, chlorpyrifos, dichlorodiphenyl-trichloroethane (DDT), tetrachloroethylene, and the polybrominated diphenyl ethers.
While chemicals like manganese and fluoride, common in drinking water, are rarely found in high enough concentrations in the U.S. to pose a health threat, other chemicals on the list are much more pervasive. More details

There is a raw milk renaissance sweeping America that is marked by swelling disregard for all the government fear-mongering over this all-natural, living "superfood." Writing for The Washington Post (WP), freelance journalist Whitney Pipkin highlights just a few of the many families throughout the Northeast and elsewhere that are embracing raw milk with open arms, despite oppressive restrictions on its sale and endless warnings by health authorities about its alleged dangers.
Raw milk is considerably hard to come by in the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area, for instance, as the District, Virginia and Maryland all currently prohibit the retail sale of raw milk. For families like the Jacksons, who recently moved out to the country to raise their own milk-producing animals and avoid the hassle, this used to mean having to cross state lines to access the whole food for their family of 13.

We made history today with the natural product industry's first ever agreement to limiting heavy metals levels in popular products. Garden of Life, SunWarrior and Natural News agreed to the terms described here:
I want to be clear that Garden of Life and SunWarrior are not the only companies that need to be on board with this. In truth, many brown rice proteins we've tested has been found to contain significant levels of heavy metals including tungsten. The entire industry needs to commit to these improved composition goals, and I expect we will soon hear from other companies who join this commitment to clean food! More information

Subway, one of the world's biggest bread bakers, is about to remove a chemical from its breads that raised the ire of an influential health activist and food blogger.
The world's biggest sandwich chain says it's in the process of removing the chemical known as Azodiacarbonamide from its sandwich breads — a chemical that Vani Hari, who runs the site FoodBabe.com, says is commonly used to increase elasticity in everything from yoga mats to shoe rubber to synthetic leather. It's used for the same reason in bread, she says, as a dough conditioner.
"We are already in the process of removing Azodiacarbonamide as part of our bread improvement efforts despite the fact that it is USDA and FDA approved ingredient," the company says in a statement. "The complete conversion to have this product out of the bread will be done soon."
Days before Subway announced its change of heart, "Food Babe" Vani Hari appeared on the Alex Jones Show to discuss her new initiative, after discovering that Subway makes bread with an ingredient called azodicarbonamide – a chemical also used to make yoga mats and shoe rubber.

The statement was drawn up by the European Network of Scientists for Social and Environmental Responsibility. It was released on October 21, 2013.
Since then, 297 scientists and experts have signed it.
Thus exploding the myth that "the science is settled."
Exploding the claim that a consensus about GMOs has been reached.
You can read the statement and the signatories at ensser.org.
Here are two excerpts from the statement:
"As scientists, physicians, academics, and experts from disciplines relevant to the scientific, legal, social and safety assessment aspects of genetically modified organisms (GMOs), we strongly reject claims by GM seed developers and some scientists, commentators, and journalists that there is a 'scientific consensus' on GMO safety and that the debate on this topic is 'over'."
"We feel compelled to issue this statement because the claimed consensus on GMO safety does not exist. The claim that it does exist is misleading and misrepresents the currently available scientific evidence and the broad diversity of opinion among scientists on this issue. Moreover, the claim encourages a climate of complacency that could lead to a lack of regulatory and scientific rigour and appropriate caution, potentially endangering the health of humans, animals, and the environment."
The number of scientists on either side of a question does not, alone, imply a final answer. But it does indicate whether the question is closed or still open. It does indicate that those who claim the question is closed are wrong.
Completely wrong.
Monsanto PR and government PR and media PR are so many tongues wagging in the wind.
In previous articles, I've highlighted dangers and lies re GMOs. Here I'm simply reporting that a consensus about GMO safety is a delusion.
In other words, anybody can say "everybody knows…" And if those people have access to, or control, major media, they can make a persuasive case.
But the persuasion is nothing more than one voice drowning out other voices.
Other voices who, for example, make this declaration:
(Signatory, Dr. Margarida Silva, biologist and professor at the Portugese Catholic University)—"…research has been mostly financed by the very companies that depend on positive outcomes for their business, and we now know that where money flows, influence grows. The few independent academics left must work double shift to address the vast array of unanswered questions and red flags that keep piling up."
Or this voice: Signatory, Dr. Raul Montenegro, biologist, University of Cordoba, Argentina—"As things stand, the governments of these countries [Argentina, Brazil] deny that there is a [GMO] problem even in the face of numerous reports from the people who are affected and the doctors who must treat them."
So far, there are 297 such voices.
Will CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN, FOX report this story in full and overturn the false consensus? Will they make room for the 297 voices?
Of course not. Their job is to invent consensus by consulting "reliable sources." Meaning: liars who also want to invent false consensus.

Nuclear Scientist J.W. Petermann of FukushimaUpdateReport.com evaluates the hazards of EMF radiation vs ionizing radiation, and the risks of the nuclear industry as a whole.
A group of Russian MPs have prepared a bill severely restricting imports of genetically modified agricultural produce, and completely banning its domestic production.
The initiative is backed by Evgeny Fyodorov of the parliamentary majority United Russia and a group called Russian Sovereignty, which unites MPs from various parties and parliamentary factions.
The politicians want to amend the existing law On Safety and Quality of Alimentary Products with a norm set for the maximum allowed content of transgenic and genetically modified components. The powers to establish that norm go to the government and products with excessive content of GMO components should be banned for turnover and imports. More Details

Have you ever wondered what's really in vaccines? According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control's vaccine additives page, all the following ingredients are routinely used as vaccine additives:
• Aluminum – A light metal that causes dementia and Alzheimer's disease. You should never inject yourself with aluminum.
• Antibiotics – Chemicals that promote superbugs, which are deadly antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria that are killing tens of thousands of Americans every year.
• Formaldehyde – A "pickling" chemical used to preserve cadavers. It's highly toxic to the nervous system, causing blindness, brain damage and seizures. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services openly admits that formaldehyde causes cancer. You can see this yourself on the National Toxicology Program website, featuring its 12th Report on Carcinogens.
There, the formaldehyde Fact Sheet completely neglects to mention formaldehyde in vaccines. This is the "dirty little secret" of government and the vaccine industry. It does state, however, that "…formaldehyde causes myeloid leukemia, and rare cancers including sinonasal and nasopharyngeal cancer."
• Monosodium Glutamate (MSG) – A neurotoxic chemical called an "excitotoxin." It causes brain neurons to be overexcited to the point of death. MSG is toxic even when consumed in foods, where it causes migraine headaches and endocrine system damage. You should NEVER inject MSG into your body. But that's what health workers do when they inject you with vaccines.
• Thimerosal – A methyl mercury compound that causes severe, permanent nervous system damage. Mercury is highly toxic to the brain. You should never touch, swallow or inject mercury at any dose. There is no safe dose of mercury! Doctors and vaccine pushers LIE to you and say there is no mercury in vaccines. Even the CDC readily admits vaccine still contain mercury (thimerosal).

Shocking video! During my scientific investigations of foods, I recently discovered tiny fragments of metal embedded in Wheaties cereal flakes. Curious about how much metal was in the cereal, I used a neodymium magnet and discovered — to my great astonishment — that Wheaties flakes can be lifted with magnets.
This isn't voodoo or woo woo or anything mystical; it's just straight physics and the laws of magnetism. Yep, magnets work on metal fragments in cereal! Full Story

So many of us have no idea the importance the type of seed used to produce the food we consume has on a society. Today, Scott Jackson, professor at the University of Georgia, will join Stephen McCarthy of The McCarthy Project to discuss the current and future trends in seed genetics and the use in our world today. We will be discussing the concepts of domestication, bottlenecks and epigenetics as it relates to the world of growing food.
For the complete show, visit here.
Areas we will touch on today's show are the following: The Debate on the Use of GMO's. Seeds that are cloned and then transferred together control pests and disease. Hybrid and the value to the food supply. Hybrid seeds and crossing the strands, corn, rice, need to solve the problems. Only works in a few crops. Heirlooms. Seeds that were used before commercialization and open pollinated.
Here are a couple articles for additional research.
1. Wall Street Journal on the GMO Debate.
2. Natural News on the return of the small, organic farmer or garden
3. Natural News on the political side of the debate related to sovereignty of nations and the use of certain seeds
4. Green Depot on the difference and debate to use hybrids or heirloom seeds.
Here are the links for additional reading recommended by Scott Jackson:

2. Seeds of Discovery website
3. USDA seed collections for various plants
4. Example of rice collection in the Philippines
About Scott Jackson:
Scott Jackson's research focuses on the application of genomics and cytogenetics to understand the structure, function and evolution of plant genomes, with a focus on the rice, soybean, common bean and peanut. The Jackson lab has been involved in sequencing plant genomes such as soybean, common bean, pigeonpea, chickpea and peanut. Research includes evolutionary studies of individual species as well as entire genera (e.g. Oryzeae and Glycine). We use cytogenetics to explore chromosome structure and function. Much of our work is at the intersection of genomics/epigenomics and bioinformatics. We generate and utilize large genomic data sets to discover genes, make gene-phenotype correlations and provide tools for engineering improved crops.
Dr. Edward Group of Global Healing Center talks with Anthony Gucciardi of Natural Society on how to detox GMOs from your body naturally.

General Mills just announced that one type of Cherrios will be non-GMO Cherrios "Original." The GMO labeling side declares a victory in the fight against the use of GMO in the creation of a major branded cereal product. Will this lead to a major change in the direction of the food industry. Check out the following posts and you make the call.
Made with 100 percent natural whole grain oats – the only major breakfast cereal grain proven to help lower cholesterol – Cheerios is a healthy start to the day or a perfect, crunchy snack for the entire family. More Details
General Mills Inc. has started producing Cheerios free of genetically modified content, making the 73-year-old breakfast cereal one of the highest-profile brands to change in the face of growing complaints over such ingredients from activist groups and some consumers. More Details
General Mills has confirmed that Cheerios cereal is going non-GMO. Many people are celebrating this "victory" but I'm not so sure it's a big deal at all — Cheerios are made from oats, and there are no GMO oats. So Cheerios has already been > 99% non-GMO forever. Here's the scoop on this announcement and why I remain very skeptical of General Mills, a cereal company with a documented history of deception. More Details

A practice being promoted on YouTube as a fad diet is actually a form of disordered eating that can pose serious health risks, health professionals are warning.
In videos promoting "the cotton ball diet," young girls soak cotton balls in lemonade or orange juice and then swallow them. The girls claim that the cotton balls expand in the stomach, producing a feeling of fullness and thereby making them eat less during the day. In this, the cotton ball diet may seem at first to resemble appetite-suppressing drugs such as Lipozene.
But everything about the diet is dangerous, experts warn, from the specifics of the practice to the attitude behind it. More Details

A new study published in Clinical Neurophysiology suggests it doesn't take years or even months of exposure for cell phone radiation to (negatively) alter our brains—it only takes minutes. The phones used in this double-blind, crossover, randomized study emitted LTE radiation, or the LTE technology so popular in "fourth generation" (4G) phones, the phones everyone clamors for.
The researchers exposed the right ears of 18 study participants to LTE radio frequency radiation. In just 30 minutes, they observed changes in brain activity. The radiation levels were within legal limits and the phone was always kept 1 cm from the ear. More Details
Concealing the corrupt and failed and harmful and dangerous practice of vaccination, propagandists and media idiots and government spokespeople have drowned the American population, for more than a century, with assurances and demands about "public health."
Exactly. That's the game they're playing. They build it (reality), and you come. Because in their absence and the absence of what they have built, there would be nothing. Unless you…built something yourself. Unless we build something different.
Unless we fight and maintain the right to claim exemptions and opt out of vaccination. Unless millions of people wake up and opt out, and opt for health.

In the midst of the Government shutting down I feel this is a good opportunity to remind everyone not to allow our bodies to do the same. This time of year can be very stressful with the holidays approaching, world events (that never end), and just emerging from summer.
Personally, this last few weeks have been crazy. I have been extremely busy running all over the place with work and family and I can feel my body weakening. Getting run down can happen to the best of us as it is real easy to forget to take care of yourself when you are busy and stressed out. However, it is in these times that taking care of ourselves is absolutely crucial.
The easiest way to achieve shut down is to run yourself into the ground. Stress, lack of sleep, poor nutrition, and burning the candle at both ends, all have detrimental effects on your immune system and once your immune system is compromised you are more susceptible to getting sick.
So for those of you in the same boat, here are some suggestions (some of which we offer, some just home remedies) to help you through the busy stressful times:
Daily Immune Support
This is a great product of mushroom extracts that will help maintain a healthy immune system. Mushrooms are adaptogens and are great stress combatant and immune system supporter.
Relax & De-Stress
This herbal blend has been my best friend over the last week. I like to take it throughout the day as needed. The great thing about this blend is that you can take it anytime because it does not cause drowsiness.
Vitamin D
This product is great but especially now as the days are getting shorter and our exposure to the Sun is becoming less. Make sure you are taking adequate doses, as Vitamin D has a tremendously positive effect on your immune system.
This is a powerful immune support blend and one of our most popular products during the winter months. This blend is great if you are feeling like you are about to get sick or to help speed up the recovery process.
Lack of sleep, poor nutrition, and too much stress are some of the exact reasons we created Enerfood. Darren and I designed the product to combat all these things. Make sure you are taking this product daily!
You know that feeling when you get that first hint of a sore throat? Which then leads to dread as to not if but when you will get sick. Well at the first sign of a sore throat I immediately cut up some Garlic and suck on it. Garlic is an extremely powerful antibiotic and usually nips any sore throat. Sure your significant other might be turned off but its better than being sick.
Turn off your WiFi
Darren actually suggested this to me this morning. He has had some trouble sleeping recently and last night turned off his WiFi Connection and said he slept great. We tend to forget all the energy constantly surrounding us and this is important I think regardless of whether you are sleeping well or not.
Those are just some suggestions, as I don' want to take up too much of your time on the beautiful weekend, but I feel this is an important reminder. So please take care of yourself.
Have a healthy, safe, and happy day,

Fall is upon us and the bombardment of "get your flu shot" hype has begun. Only this year it's worse as there is a plethora of new twists designed to give you a nice false sense of security.
First, there is a new shot that will offer "more protection". It is called the quadrivalent vaccine and it "protects" from 4 strains of the flu rather than the normal 3. The CDC is recommending this new 4-strain vaccine for children because they are at the highest risk and they are saying get it right away because there is a limited supply. So hurry to get your children "protected".
Second, they have an extra strength shot for seniors. This obviously is in response to the fact that last year's shot was a complete failure in protecting the elderly. In fact it was less than 50% effective in test groups and in other cases offered no protection at all. That's not an opinion it's a fact…look it up. Apparently "Extra-Strength" is supposed to calm the fears of those asking any questions.
Finally, it seems like Big Pharma has gotten privy to the fact that people have been using the "I'm allergic to eggs" excuse to get out of their shots because they now have an "egg-free" version. Not to mention they now have inhalable vaccines, finger pricks for those afraid of needles and I'm sure a million more reasons "why" there is no reason not to get a flu shot. Obviously they are trying to eliminate any excuse possible that people might have.
Of course, every year they tell us to get our flu shots because the flu strains change from year to year but somehow they already have the shots prepared without knowing what strains are present. I know they are making "educated" assumptions into how the strains have mutated this year but really this whole thing is a total scam.
I encourage you to do your own research as I am here to just help ignite the fire of further exploration. Part of being a health freedom activist means advocating everyone to make their own decisions about their health. We are just here to offer the alternative perspective and to create conversation. I know many people who get the flu shot and still get the flu just like I know many people who get it and don't get the flu. I can also say the exact same thing for people who don't get the flu shot. That is the point. Flu shot or no flu shot, you might get the flu. But in my opinion, getting the flu shot offers no more "protection". It is just another highly profitable control channel for Big Pharma.
You want REAL protection? Then take care of yourself with proper nourishment…mind, body, and soul. Get plenty of sleep, manage/limit your stress, and support your immune system through diet and supplementation.
I can not underestimate the importance of taking care of yourself. You could get all the shots in the world and if you are unhealthy and run yourself into the ground, you will get sick one way or another.
So please take care of your body. Take care of your mind, and as your friend my advice is steer clear of the flu shot.

This week a study was published by a cancer institute that stated that omega 3 supplements are inked to a 70% increase in prostate cancer. What!!
For the last 20 years, we have been told that omega 3 fish oil or here have numerous long-term health benefits.
What is the doctors motive? What are they really saying? A 360 degree change, have we followed a lie?
I would propose that the doctors are lying or manipulated the results of the study to support their business and the pharmaceutical companies. Check out the following information.
Mike Adams of Natural News on how a study can make it into the mainstream media under a false premise.
As a follow-up, Michael Savage on the same subject.
Athletes who listen to all this junk end up confused and dazed with misinformation. Remember, don't believe everything a doctor or scientist says. You must look deeper and find the truth.
by Mike Adams
Is it a competitive advantage to athletes to eat non-gmo wheat?
If it is not good for the general public/ Japanese to consume, then for a athlete looking to run at a elite level absolutely no.
Control your food sources as much as possible. You may not need to change what your eating. Simply, change who you buy it from and confirm their sources as much as possible.

3 (+2) chalazion treatments that really helped
[UPDATED May 19, 2016: Have you been here before? I've added new stuff to this post. Scroll to the bottom for my favourite chalazion-busters yet.] The title of this post is misleading. We tried many ways. When our little guy got his first chalazions (one under each eye, ugh) around the age of one and a half, we naturally thought they were styes. I get them every so often from eye makeup, and figured that if they're contagious, he may have gotten one from me … Continue reading

Personal information held by agencies
The Privacy Act controls how 'agencies' collect, use, disclose, store and give access to 'personal information'.
The privacy Codes of Practice do the same, but they apply to specific areas – particularly health, telecommunications and credit reporting.
Personal information is information about identifiable, living people.
Almost every person or organisation that holds personal information is an 'agency'. So, for example, the Privacy Act covers government departments, companies of all sizes, religious groups, schools and clubs.
Exemptions from the Act
Only a few organisations and people are not 'agencies'. Other rules exist to govern how they manage personal information, so the Privacy Act does not cover what they do. Organisations that aren't covered by the Privacy Act include:
• Members of Parliament, when they are acting as MPs. It's up to Parliament or political parties to discipline MPs for breaches of privacy
• courts and tribunals, in relation to their judicial functions. You have to challenge judicial decisions through the normal processes, such as an appeal
• The news media when they are conducting their news activities. The Press Council, the Broadcasting Standards Authority and the courts govern the news media.
In addition:
• if another law is inconsistent with the Privacy Act, that other law will 'trump' the Privacy Act
• individuals who collect or hold personal information for their own personal, family or household affairs are exempt
• in special circumstances, the Commissioner can authorise agencies to collect, use or disclose information even when that would usually breach principles 2, 10 or 11.
The privacy principles
At the heart of the Privacy Act are twelve privacy principles. The privacy principles cover:
• collection of personal information (principles 1-4)
• storage and security of personal information (principle 5)
• requests for access to and correction of personal information (principles 6 and 7, plus parts 4 and 5 of the Act)
• accuracy of personal information (principle 8)
• retention of personal information (principle 9)
• use and disclosure of personal information (principles 10 and 11), and
• using unique identifiers (principle 12).
There are also four principles covering public registers.
These principles reflect internationally accepted standards for good personal information handling.
The Privacy Commissioner
The current Privacy Commissioner is Marie Shroff.
The Office of the Privacy Commissioner is an Independent Crown Entity. It is funded by the State, but is independent of government or Ministerial control.
What the Privacy Commissioner does
The Privacy Commissioner has many responsibilities. These include:
• monitoring proposed legislation to see if it affects the privacy of individuals, and commenting on any privacy problems
• being consulted on policy developments that have an impact on privacy
• providing education about privacy
• overseeing information matching programmes
• being aware of technological developments that can affect privacy
• issuing codes of practice, which modify the privacy principles and which apply to a particular industry or topic
• investigating complaints about interferences with privacy. An interference with privacy can occur when:
(a) an agency wrongfully refuses to give an individual access to information about them, or wrongfully refuses to correct information about them, or
(b) an individual suffers some form of harm as a result of a breach of a privacy principle, rule, or a code of practice or information matching provision.

Previous Challenge Entry (Level 4 – Masters)
Topic: Summer (the season) (07/09/09)
TITLE: The Summertime Einstein Escapade | Previous Challenge Entry
By Lynda Lee Schab
To no avail.
If it were up to me, I'd live at the North Pole—a constant winter wonderland—with Santa and all his elves. I'll bet they don't have spiders crawling on their tool benches and mice hiding in their toy boxes. Unfortunately, my husband and kids love summertime and all of the icky things that come with it.
Nut cases. All of them.
I slept with one eye open all night, and my husband offered some help before leaving for work in the morning.
"Here," he said, shoving a broom into my hand. "If you see the mouse again, smack him with this."
I looked at the broom with skepticism. "This won't work. Mice can squeeze through the tiniest cracks and crevasses. He'll slip right through these whisks."
"But you'll feel better with some sort of weapon." He winked and kissed me goodbye.
"Mom, all my jeans are dirty. Can you do a load of laundry?" My son called over his shoulder as he left for school.
Laundry? That meant going into the basement.
Well, a mother's gotta do what a mother's gotta do.
Armed with my broom, I carefully made my way down the stairs, ever watchful for the slightest movement or flash of tail. By the time I reached the laundry room, my armpits were damp. If I weren't in such a hurry, I'd have thrown it in the wash along with the denim. But no time for that.
Setting the broom on the dryer, I hurried through the pile of laundry, praying I wouldn't touch something furry.
A noise from behind startled me. I stopped, hand mid-air, to listen. It sounded like someone was scratching a plastic bag. Feeling brave, I cast a look over my shoulder. There was a shelf along the wall, with four hooks lined up underneath. On one of the hooks, hung a plastic grocery bag. The crinkling sound continued, and it was coming directly from that bag.
So this is what I figured happened. Einstein, the mouse's new name, was sneaking along that shelf, lost his footing, and fell into the bag. And now he couldn't get out.
Ha! Ha!
I talked some smack to the bag before leaning against the dryer to slow my speeding heart rate. Now I had a decision to make. I could either wait until my husband got home to take care of Einstein, or I could face my fear and dispose of the mouse myself.
I chewed my lip.
Before I could think too hard about it, I lifted up a silent prayer, grabbed the broom and fed the pole through the bag's handle. With total concentration, I kept the broom steady so the bag wouldn't slide off the end. I wasn't quite ready to die from a heart attack.
I maneuvered the broom up the stairs, out the door, and through the garage. My hand trembled slightly but the bag stayed put. By the time I reached the driveway, my armpits weren't just damp, they were soaked. But I did it!
Here was my plan: I would count to three, drop the bag and start pounding the mouse like crazy. Sounds brutal, I know. The Animal Rights Activists would gasp in horror. But I wasn't about to set it free so it could make its way back inside my house.
I mentally prepared myself.
Pound! Pound! Pound!
Did I smush him?
Tentatively, I poked the bag. Standing as far away as possible, I lifted a corner of the bag with the broom and looked inside.
Something was making its way out! I held my breath.
I squinted. Huh?
A clearly disoriented cricket hobbled out of the bag.
I let out the breath I was holding. Quickly, I looked around the neighborhood to see if anyone had witnessed my insanity. A couple of curtains moved, evidence that I had an audience.
I looked down at the bug and shuddered. Yep, summer was way overrated.

Under the old Companies Act 1956, it was required to have at least two people to form a private limited company and 7 people to form a public limited company. There was no concept of forming a company with a single shareholder as its member.
Also Read: Minimum Persons required to register a company in India
In Companies Act 2013, a new concept has been introduced known as One Person Company which gives an opportunity to Indian entrepreneurs to enter the corporate world. It's popularly known as OPC i.e. One Person Company.
In this case, one individual can register a company in India by becoming a shareholder or member cum director of the same company. Liability of the member in this case is limited, which was not the case in Proprietorship business.
Also Read: How to register a One Person Company in India
One Person Company can be formed by an individual by subscribing his or her name to the memorandum of association and complying with the other requirements of the Companies Act 2013 in respect of registration.
After registration, the words "one person company" shall be mentioned in brackets below the name of such a company, wherever its name is printed, affixed or engraved.
Also Read:
At the time of registration, the OPC should also indicate the name of another person as nominee, with his prior written consent in the prescribed form.
Such nominee shall become the member of the company in the event of the subscriber's or shareholder's death.
A written consent of such person (nominee) shall also be filed with the registrar of companies at the time of incorporation along with its memorandum and articles of association.

OPC is a new concept for India but worldwide it's used in countries like the US, and many countries of Europe, China and Singapore. The entrepreneurs in these countries have options to decide the constitution of company as per their need and the option of an OPC is available to them.

More than 1,000 hydrangeas, of 150 varieties, are interspersed with the rhododendrons and are planted on a forested north-facing slope of mature deciduous trees, with gentle sloping walkways gracing the hillside. Their blossoms appear in May and continue until October. Colors include blue, pink, white, lavender and purple depending on the variety and soil acidity.
The Hydrangea Garden, with 5 months of blooms, tapers from the house to the start of the Pleasance Garden near the valley. Wooden benches provide rest along the path. Views are stunning from above and below.
