HOW MONSANTO WORKS- QUOTE FROM the FRESH TEAM

Dear Steven, It probably won’t come as a surprise that Monsanto actually feels they have the right to bypass the US Federal Court system. Just last August, a Federal court ruled that the USDA’s prior approval of Monsanto’s GE “Roundup Ready” sugar beets was unlawful because the USDA had neglected to conduct adequate analysis of the impacts of this crop on farmers and the environment. The ruling made it illegal to plant or sell GE sugar beets until further studies were conducted, which the USDA estimated would be finished in 2012. But Monsanto doesn’t play by the rules, and now the USDA has proposed to allow the planting and sale of Monsanto’s Roundup Ready sugar beets before the agency has completed its environmental assessment. To add insult to injury, we have an absurdly short window to voice our opposition - the USDA is giving us till December 6th to submit comments regarding their proposal. Let’s send the USDA 5,000 signatures to oppose Monsanto’s GE sugar beets before they get their foot in the door. Click here to sign our petition to the USDA by the December 6th deadline. http://action.freshthemovie.com/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=4856 We cannot let Monsanto’s sugar beets get through - it sets a bad precedent, suggesting that Federal ruling doesn't really mean anything and that Monsanto has more power than the government agencies that are supposed to be maintaining checks and balances to keep our food system safe. Currently, the USDA does not require manufacturers to label foods that contain GE ingredients. The U.S. is one of the world’s largest sugar producers - sugar beets account for 55% of our sugar products. Letting GE sugar beets through the cracks will mean GE sugar in your foods, without your knowledge. The multi-million dollar agriculture companies are pushing hard to get GE foods into our food supply without our knowledge and we have to fight back. You have till December 6th to sign the petition and rally your friends and family around this important issue. Let's send them 5,000 signatures. Let's rally, as only grassroots organizing can do! Sign our petition to the USDA now! Thanks for all you do to stand up to Monsanto. Eat safe, Lisa, Ana & Jamie, the FRESH team FRESHthemovie.com

Skin Cell transforms into Blood Cell skipping Stem Cell stage

http://www.nature.com/news/2010/101110/full/468149a.html

Though the aspirations of creating blood from one's skin and thus preventing the need of donor matching and risk of various dysplasia is rather noble, I am even more fascinated with the concepts / nature of cells that are observed here. This experiment reveals two observations of nature.



Number one, genes are not destiny... they are more like daily maintenance and adaptation. Not the One species jump to another species kind of adaptation over millions of years... but rather moment-to-moment adaptation over one's life time. This is illustrated in the fact that a mature skin cell was able to convert into a blood cell (white, red, and platelets).

Number two, I see here the concept of regeneration. I've observed this in nature via trees and various organisms and therefore have always wondered, "Why can't we regenerate what we need?" Probably, this is mostly because we have been trained and taught that we can't.

Perhaps we can.


As the saying attributed to Henry Ford goes, "Whether you think you can or think you can't, your right."

And even older, attributed to a King of 10th century b.c.e, "As a man thinks (human), so is he".


Well,
Now that this is being observed scientifically and published in NATURE, I feel i can safely discuss a seemingly rather natural idea of regeneration without being confined.
