Show You Care About Food

Food Democracy Now! says,
"Take a Stand with Family Farmers vs. Monsanto!


At Food Democracy Now! we believe that family farmers have a right to farm without threat and intimidation. We don’t think farmers should be sued because Monsanto’s patented genes from a neighbor’s field blow across their fence and contaminate their organic or conventional, non-GMO seeds. Actually, we’re outraged by this Orwellian practice and think it needs to stop.

That’s why we’re suing Monsanto in court to protect family farmers from unwanted genetic contamination of their crops and from Monsanto’s abusive lawsuits.

As an Iowa-based organization, we understand the threats and challenges that family farmers face every day. We don’t fight these battles from comfortable offices in Washington DC, but from the Heartland in rural Iowa where we see the harms from industrial agriculture firsthand. We know the risks that farmers face and we know what’s at stake if we don’t win.

Food Democracy Now! is on the front lines of the battle for the heart and soul of agriculture and a healthy food system, but we can only continue this work with your help today.

Can you chip in today so we can have the resources to stand up for family farmers? It’s time to end Monsanto’s abusive lawsuits and unwanted genetic contamination of our food! With your help we can win in 2013. Every bit counts!

Every year Monsanto investigates more than 500 family farmers for alleged patent “infringement” by sneaking onto their land. At Food Democracy Now! we find this outrageous and believe that it needs to stop immediately.

That’s why in March 2011, Food Democracy Now! joined the lawsuit Organic Seed Growers and Trade Association (OSGATA) et al v. Monsanto during the first round of plaintiffs, in what could be an historic lawsuit to protect family farmers and challenge the legitimacy of Monsanto’s patents on their genetically engineered (GMO) seeds and their right to sue farmers indiscriminately.

In the past 16 years Monsanto has sued 150 farmers and filed charges against more than another 700 farmers who settled out of court rather than face a brutal and expensive lawsuit versus Monsanto, who has a team of aggressive lawyers and endless resources.

In the coming weeks, on January 10, 2013, Food Democracy Now! will travel to Washington DC to stand with family farmers in court to make sure that their rights are protected.

Donate today to stand with family farmers versus Monsanto’s abusive lawsuits and unwanted genetic contamination to help us continue our important work. Your donation before December 31st will help us meet our fundraising goal.

Like most Americans, we believe that farmers have the right to farm how they choose, and that any inadvertent genetic contamination that they experience through no fault of their own should not open them up to frivolous patent infringement lawsuits by biotech bully Monsanto.

It’s an outrage that this can happen, but right now in America that’s just the case. Every year biotech chemical and seed giant Monsanto sends its "seed police" out into the fields of unsuspecting farmers, where they steal farmer’s plants to have them tested in their labs to see if they contain Monsanto’s patented genes.

It sounds crazy, that Monsanto’s seed police could sneak onto a farmer’s field without permission, but that’s exactly what they do.

Last year, we travelled to New York City with more than 50 family farmers to face Monsanto in court. Unfortunately, federal district court judge Naomi Buchwald dismissed our case, claiming that we overestimated the threat Monsanto poses to farmers with their abusive lawsuits and the risk that farmers face from unwanted genetic contamination of their crops.

On January 10th, we’ll stand in court with family farmers again, this time in Washington DC to have our appeal heard to make sure that farmers are protected. Please join us in helping make sure that our voice is heard loud and clear.

Can you donate today to make sure we have the resources to fight for farmers in the coming year? We can’t do it without you! Click here to donate $10 or more. Every bit counts.

Thank you for participating in food democracy,

Dave, Lisa and the Food Democracy Now! team"

This is just one more proof that America is not free.  You have to fight for the health of your food!  Please help by making a donation or, at the very least, investigating food products so that you can help farmers and not consume GMOed foods.  Thank-you.

Happy Galactic Alignment!

Teaser About Conneticut Slaughter

David Icke is informing the world that in the Dark Knight Rises movie, a map is seen with the words Sandy Hook on it.  It is very common for "the they" to have a teaser like this made public before they commit a crime.  For instance, in Painful Questions, a picture can be seen of two people holding a remote control and the Twin Buildings collapsing in the background.  That picture was published in July 2001.  Here, the teaser is placed where there is a tie-in with the Colorado slaughter earlier this year, because this is the movie they were watching at the time.

Here is the image supposedly taken from the Dark Knight Rises movie at 1:58:42 into the movie.  (I haven't seen the movie, so I have no idea if it's real, but I don't doubt David Icke, especially since his video clip showing it was taken down by Youtube personnel.  Also 1+5+8=14; the 14th.  So this clip may even be informing you when something is going to happen, not just where.)

Sandy Hook is written at the left on the map.

The close up can be seen on my wedsite's home page: www.chasnqi.com
, or in David Icke's newsletter.

When I heard about this latest slaughter of the innocent, I thought about how Holmes had a father who was testifying basically against the government.  I wondered what this latest supposed shooter's dad had done, in jest.  Information that researchers out there have uncovered can be Googled or Youtube searched with "Aurora & Conneticut Fathers to Testify".  It's interesting.

Those of us who rarely accept a story as told to us by the press do not mean any disrespect to the slain or to their families.  We just want the whole story to be given.  Since it's not, we feel we need to dig deeper.  Most of us see this as a little speck in the sand pit of what's really going on.  This isn't just about gun control, or getting us used to seeing uniformed, armed men all the time, either.

 

Stevie Wonder's "Someday at Christmas" and Discernment

We're all waiting for that some time, that elusive "when", when we will have people not being used robotically to destroy other fellow humans.  It's time to awake up and block those behind some kind of agenda from allowing us to head toward a militaery state.  Unfortunately, instead, more police will be assigned to our children's schools.  One thing this will do is to instill a false sense of security.  The other is to make your children as comfortable around a uniformed, armed person as they are being made comfortable with reptillian characters like Barney.  It's time to refine your discernment skills.  Open your eyes and question things that are occuring rather than allowing news teams to spoon feed you ideas.

It's time to think outside the box since "the they" seem to be going full speed ahead with their Agenda, whatever it is.  The elementary school in Newtown, Conneticut just may have been targeted because it was a great role model for safety.  If the best is torn down, the masses will be left in fear and begging for help from uniformed, armed services.  This is definitely not the answer, though.  Davis Icke's idea of "Problem Reaction Solution" needs to be investigated.  Ideas that citizens can be programmed to do nasty deeds also needs to be discerned.

As for beefed up security on campuses, it doesn't necessarily help, because the school police will still have to be in the exact right place at the exact right time. An example of this is with a situation that occured at a school where I worked last year. The following is not an example of a robot perptrator like I feel the Conneticut shooter was, but it stands as an example of the false security more policemen on campus can bring. On September 30, 2011, I was working as a sign language interpreter at a high school. That day, we had two armed school policemen on campus, along with two deans, and tons of administrators. A girl in a former class of my client, was fatally stabbed during lunch by an ex-boyfriend who had also been in a class of my client's. Part of the problem preventing one officer from arriving at the crime was all the students running in the oppsite direction. Anyone who has ever worked in a middle school or high school knows that children run toward a fight, anxious to see every second of it, rather than running away from it. On this day, the students were running away in fear of the blood and such, for it was no ordinary fight, and the closest officer, as reported to me by witnesses, interpreted the stampede as running toward the fight, temporarily taking him in the wrong direction. There is a solution to stopping school violence, but it doesn't begin with us being policed when at school. It begins with being able to discern people's motives on an individual level and continues with seeing the much bigger picture.

It must be sad for Stevie Wonder to see us no better off than decades ago when he wrote "Someday at Christmas" and, in fact, worse off. I am still keeping an eye out and have faith that humans will stand together and recognize "Problem Reaction Solution," take a step toward discernment, and finally know peace.

Validating the Feelings of Animals

It surprises me when I hear that people don’t take time to communicate with the animal family members in their households. I wonder what kind of relationship between “master” and “pet” is going on, and that it must be very different than the relating to animals that occurs in my home. For instance, the feline family member in my home, Avalon, is kept in the loop. We communicate with him and validate his feelings to the extent that guests wonder out loud to my human family members, “Who is Debbie talking to? Has someone arrived?” The nice thing that occurs when humans reach out to them is that humans start to notice how the animal family member is reaching out to them.

I can be a real worry-wart when I am unable to locate Avalon. He is uncomfortable with the outside world, yet loves prowling out the front. Once, he even got locked out for about five hours in the rain when it was thought he was inside sleeping as the last human left. Also, I have often disturbed his slumber either by yelling for him to respond so I know where he is, or I have disturbed him with kisses when I have finally located him. His solution to this is that he stands on the bottom two stairs, front paws ready to take off up the stairs, and bleats like a lamb until he is acknowledged. “Oh, you’re off for a nap? Okay. Thank-you. Sweet dreams,” and off he goes, I’m sure, certain that he won’t be disturbed.

I have a colleague who feels just awful that she can’t afford the $4,000 for her cat to have surgery. Her cat isn’t interested in food and is sixteen years old. I asked her if she’s had a talk with her cat, informing her of her diagnosis, suggestions the doctor has made, what she’s decided to do, and why. She looked at me incredulously. It may be helpful if she communicated why the medicine is important for the cat, that she would do her best to serve appetizing foods in a way to assist her cat’s appetite, and that the lack of $4,000 isn’t the issue since she wouldn’t go ahead with the surgery anyway. Validating how the cat must feel by imagining how she would feel with the same diagnosis is also helpful, because up until that moment, the cat may feel all alone in pain and misery without the compassion that can make any bad experience just a little better.

My animal neighbor, Coco, was most upset when her eighty-year old human-daddy got carted away to the hospital.  All she knew was that her constant companion, for the eighty-year old has been retired longer than Coco’s whole life, was suddenly gone.  She howled constantly during the day and night for days.  I finally got the scoop about the human neighbor’s condition and was informed that he’d be returning home shortly.  I saw Coco, so informed her about it all and further acknowledged her feelings about missing her human daddy.  She stopped howling.  Animals simply want to be heard.

When one beloved dog dies and the other is left alone, many humans think the dog who remains is moping around and not eating because he needs a new playmate, when in reality, he’s in mourning, just like the human is. What about acknowledging the loss the remaining dog feels? Why not have a heart to heart talk and cry together? Did the remaining dog get to sniff the carcass of the deceased for a full understanding, or did the dog simply drive away and not return? If a human knows they’re taking their doggy family member to the vet to be euthanized, it is thoughtful to allow the other animal family members to say goodbye to each other. It’s possible the ill one won’t be able to do much, but they both deserve to know what’s about to happen in play-by-play detail. Of course if there’s some sort of contagious disease, goodbyes may be forbidden, but chances are the two were together during the onset of the disease anyway. Common sense cannot be abandoned, but recognizing that the animal family member has feelings too is a must. Validate the feelings of your animal family member today.

Healing and Clearing Codes: Psychic Protection

Psychic protection can come to you in many forms. Your mind is by far the most readily available type of protection you can have. However, sometimes it is nice to have a physical tool to help you when you come face to face with the unseen. The Temple of Light Codes, the Goddess Code, the Crystal Imprint Clearing Code, the Spiritual Clearing Codes, the Manifestation Grid, and the Meridian Code are sacred geometry cards that Carleen Vincent and her son, Scott, visualized and made with the Spiritual Forces of Light’s aid. The energy and sound frequencies from the card(s) chosen seems to work by overlapping with a person’s aura, or emanating out into a specified area in the cases of land healings. The specific goal to balance and protect embedded within each card cannot be destroyed, altered, or interfered with while at the same time assisting a person to vibrate to their own distinct vibration.

The Temple of Light Codes are four individual, bright, mostly yellow cards that are intended to be set up in four corners of a designated area, offering protection from unseen forces. They can be buried outdoors in the front and back yards, establishing a huge rectangle that encompasses the house and garage for long-term use or they may simply be placed above ground in the four extreme corners of your home for long-term use as well. They may also be set up briefly for a day’s seminar in a conference room or overnight in a hotel room by placing them in the four corners of a designated room. You may place a crystal and a fluorite tetrahedron stone in the center of each card if drawn to do so.

The Goddess Code has multiple purposes. It most especially may be used to clear negative vibrations off jewelry and other objects, doorways and rooms in general, the exterior and interior of vehicles, and people and their energy fields. An affirmation written in pencil on a small piece of paper, folded, and placed on this Code under the pillow of the writer may help to clear energies interfering with a goal. A child prone to nightmares, or who is convinced that noxious energies are in the bedroom, may use this Code to help dispel the energetic darkness.

The Crystal Imprint Clearing Code clears crystallized negative thought-forms. The Vincents say, “This Code is designed to break up and purify trillions of these crystallized thought-forms throughout the matrix and hologram of time that are not in perfection with wholeness, oneness, and unity.” Next, “new programs are installed to broadcast frequencies of the Divine Blueprint to the Soul. Then frequencies for the manifestation of the perfected etheric template into the physical are broadcast.” Also, blocks are cleared and a connection to the conscious mind is established. This Code may be placed on the Heart Chakra area and turned a quarter turn at ten to fifteen minute intervals until it is in its starting position again.

The Spiritual Clearing Code set comes in a notebook encompassing the five individual cards, one Earth Chakra Code, a Manifestation Grid, and the Intent Code to be used in certain cases with the Manifestation Grid, along with written information. The five Codes may be used individually or together in personal treatments, on others, or for quick land clearings. They are a ‘must have’ for practitioners who treat holes in auras, foreign energies attached to auras, etc. Those with clairvoyant vision may see geometrical designs dancing in and out of a client’s body, seemingly convincing an aura to vibrate in synchronicity with the Code(s) chosen. Also, used with the Manifestation Grid and the Earth Chakra, an intended geographic space may be cleared over a longer period of time.

The Manifestation Grid set includes the Manifestation Grid and the Intent Code. The Vincents say, “The Intent Code and Manifestation Grid align you with the appropriate forces of Light for the manifestation of your goal in accordance with the highest good of all concerned. These codes set up a field of protection to keep limiting forces from interfering with your intentions.” This Grid and the smaller Intent Code may be used together with crystals or BioGenesis’ Amplifiers placed on each point of the picture of the star. The Grid set up alone with six amethyst crystals, will transmute the energies in a healing room. The intention of a workshop or a room intended to be continuously cleared, may be written in pencil and placed in the center of the Grid.

Of the Meridian Code, the Vincents say, “This Code provides sound frequencies and geometry for opening meridians and aligning the subtle energy bodies for easier integration of Code programs.” People who are sensitive to fine energies are usually aware of the body’s energy opening up and flowing freer. Acupuncture clients working on chronic stagnation may enjoy this Code’s help as will energy-practitioners who do not use needles.

Unseen forces play with humans on all levels: physical, mental, spiritual, and emotional. You can never be over prepared.

Jon Rappoport's Unveiling of Prop 37 Fraud

“Prop 37 Vote-Fraud Update: 3.3 million Votes Still Uncounted”- Jon Rappoport In my personal opinion, we cannot ever rely on a vote count.  This election just may be more proof of that. The day after the election, when results were revealed so quickly, I wondered why people did not raise an eyebrow at the speed of it all.  But then I remembered how we have become a society that dislikes delayed gratification.  We want everything and we want it now.  Perhaps Proposition 37 and the fraud involved will awaken the sheeple of the world...or at least right here in the USA...to the entrapment of wanting instant gratification. As for Genetically Modified Organisms, it is time to do a little work, folks.  I highly recommend we stand together and make our phone calls and send our e-mails.  You need to call the number on each package that you lift from a shelf.  Ask them if they include ingredients made from GMO's.  Ask your grocer if the organic items you wish to purchase are from Genetically Modified seeds.  If they cannot answer you, ask for phone numbers and/or e-mail addresses so as you can find out for yourself.  After you receive an answer, if it is an unfortunate one, inform your grocer that you can no longer purchase that particular product.  If there is an overwhelming number of GMOed foods in that store, then inform the store manager, in writing, that you will no longer be shopping there. We need to apply pressure, no matter how futile it is for us as individuals.  As a group, we may start getting somewhere.  Let us inform them that we are not an ignorant public.  Write letters to stores listing the items you discovered had GMO's in them, asking that the store either stops carrying them or to at least place a label beneath the item so as the public may be informed.  Any store that refuses can be given the names of the stores that co-operate and that they will be the stores where you will be shopping from now on.  Friends who are in agreement can also walk into these same stores making these same demands with your list. I am referring to the more enlightened stores, not the mainstream stores, of course.  Health food stores, Whole Foods, Sprouts, and stores along those lines are to have pressure placed on them.  It is not fair that we need to make a shopping booklet, even if it is as notes in our phones, listing products that are safe to buy and products that are to be avoided, but, thanks to money, power, and the planned destruction of 80% of the population, we need to take our healthcare by the reins.  Post your results on your Facebook pages and web/blogsites.  Let us stand together instead of falling apart. An example: As of summer 2012, Quaker Oats: Old Fashioned has No GMO's and is not irradiated, but it is not organic. Calling businesses may be helpful in that they see how concerned we are.  For those of you who would prefer a quicker solution to finding non-GMOed foods, please visit the helpful website below. http://www.nongmoproject.org/find-non-gmo/search-participating-products/ Here is an excerpt of Mr. Rappoport's article to be found over at NaturalNews, where I have posted some articles myself. "Monday, November 12, 2012 by: Jon Rappoport (NaturalNews) When the networks and other media outlets made the early call on election night, claiming Prop 37 had gone down to defeat, there were millions of votes still uncounted. I just checked the California Secretary of State's website, which is the official center for vote results, and  there are 3,334,495 votes that remain unprocessed. Reading the county-by-county reports, the last date any of them reported in with numbers was November 8, three days ago.  Why is it taking so long for California to count all its votes? Why do so many remain  uncounted at this late date? Yes, some of them are what's called provisional votes. That basically means they were turned in with errors, and those errors need to be tracked down and corrected. That takes time." Please become informed and read Mr. Rappoport's article in its entirety at  http://www.naturalnews.com/037930_vote_fraud_Proposition_37_uncounted.html  It is beyond ridiculous that I have to ask this, but please sign the petition demanding that the votes be counted. http://signon.org/sign/prop-37-count-all-the?source=c.url&r_by=486575rticle For a list of companies to boycott due to their involvement with the No on Prop 37 camp, please read The Alliance for Natural Health's article at the following link. http://www.anh-usa.org/prop-37-we-be-back/

Crisis Initiation 101

According to...false flag expert, Mr. Clawson, "The traditional way America gets to war is what would be best for U.S. interests.  Some people might think that Mr. Roosevelt wanted to get us into the World War Two.  As David mentioned, we had to wait for Pearl Harbor" (Youtube video, link below).  Get that?  The U.S. had to wait for Pearl Harbor.  They knew it was coming.   

According to…Gardnar Mulloy, in his book, As It Was: Reminiscences from a Man for All Seasons, Hank Prusoff predicted the impossible and the impossible came true on December 7, 1941.  Prusoff was a tennis player in Tampa, Florida in 1939 with Mulloy.  One night after tennis matches in the Dixie championships, some of the men were discussing the war between Great Britain and Germany.  Mulloy had expressed concern over America getting involved in the far-away conflict.  Mulloy writes in his memoir, “Hank responded quickly, stating strongly, ‘I wouldn’t worry about Germany, because we will be fighting Japan soon,” (71).  The men laughed and teased Prusoff, asking how he came by this knowledge.  “He responded, ‘The Japs are going to bomb Pearl Harbor’ (a place I had never of) and we queried, ‘Why would the Japs attack the United States?’” (71).  Prusoff went on to report that at that time in Seattle, Washington, the Japanese tourists, or perhaps spies, were “‘taking photos of the harbor and it’s the general talk, and furthermore, Pearl Harbor is our big naval base in the Pacific,’ Hank responded'”(71).  Mulloy reasoned President Roosevelt must also be aware. 

Through the men’s teasing and antagonizing of Prusoff, he became angry.  Finally, they decided that Prusoff should inform the President “in case, which is absurd, he didn’t already know” (71).  There, in a pro shop in Florida in 1939, Prusoff’s fate was sealed with a pen to paper.  Mulloy personally mailed the letter that held Prusoff’s name and address.  Mulloy writes, “My feeling is our government had to be aware the bombing would happen because, if nothing else, someone in the administration had Hank’s letter!”  Mulloy hypothesizes that that’s “why four of our aircraft carriers were conspicuous by their absence and not at Pearl Harbor but conveniently shipped out several days earlier on a ‘training mission’” (71). 

Hank was killed in an elevator accident by the time Mulloy called his buddies who were present at that 1939 talk.  

False Flag attacks are staged attacks so a country feels obliged to make war on another country.

Sacred Geometric Codes for Sale

Interdimensional protection can come to you in many forms. Your mind is by far the most readily available type of protection you can have. However, sometimes it is nice to have a physical tool to help you when you come face to face with the unseen. The Temple of Light Codes, the Goddess Code, the Crystal Imprint Clearing Code, the Spiritual Clearing Codes, the Manifestation Grid, and the Meridian Code are sacred geometry cards that are part of the Sacred Geometry Code Series visualized and made with the Spiritual Forces of Light’s aid. The energy and sound frequencies from the card(s) chosen seem to work by overlapping with a person’s aura, or emanating out into a specified area in the cases of land healings. The specific goal to balance and protect embedded within each card cannot be destroyed, altered, or interfered with while at the same time assisting a person to vibrate to their own distinct vibration.

The Metatron Matrix Code is separate from the Sacred Geometry Series and is the blue code seen in the background of AuthenticSelf Acupuncture & Beyond's fb page.

The Temple of Light Codes are four individual, bright, mostly yellow cards that are intended to be set up in four corners of a designated area, offering protection from unseen forces. They can be buried outdoors in the front and back yards, establishing a huge rectangle that encompasses the house and garage for long-term use or they may simply be placed above ground in the four extreme corners of your home for long-term use as well.

The MerKaBa Repatterning Codes work on an internal transformational level, helping to rid self-sabotage programming and replacing such with positive goals.^[1]  A person vibrating quickly will be more likely to notice a negative spirit’s influence and to take care of the situation in a timely manner.  Vibrations within really depressed people, for example, may start to change, too.    

           

The fifteen MerKaBa cards can be used individually or in combination, the same as with the Spiritual Clearing Codes.  In fact, both sets can be mixed and matched together during one treatment.  The MerKaBa codes may perform the following: open and clear the chakras, encourage the client to recognize that he or she is love, replace feelings of lack with an awareness of abundance, remind the cells of the vibration of inspiration, establish communication with the individual’s higher self, and tap into the feelings of gratitude, forgiveness, grace, and mercy among other tasks of equal value.^[2]

           

The cards support a person’s ability to integrate a personal Intention, possibly making a goal a reality.  In the prevention of psychic attack from human thoughts directed in a hostile manner and other such happenings, these codes can help manifest goals of protection.  They do this by clearing away internal base vibrations, helping the aura to vibrate quickly, thus warding off any kind of potential intruder.   The MerKaBA Code set comes with a Goddess Code.  These codes cost $150 plus s/h.

The Stargate Codes are made up of thirty-three codes: twenty-eight Pyramid Codes, four Ray Codes, and one Vortex Code.  Through these codes, the Vincents “devised a system to tap into the transformational process on energetic, visual, and metaphorical levels” of the ancient Egyptian “Starfire” ritual.[3]  The Vincents say to “expect greater integration of your multi-dimensional selves. Protected/safe portals for higher dimensional travel, enhanced vortex energy fields for healing work (local and long distance), [and] intent lists,” may also be expected.[4] 

Basically, as a basis, these codes will “repattern your energy field into grids of coherent energy which will remain in place and continue to work, integrate and uplift your being.”[5] Since they help you to experience multi-dimensional realities, there’s really no limit to the ways you can use these cards.  In the past, I’ve selected four and placed them around my bed, taken one with me for the day to stare at, hold, or to just have with me, and used them following the directions within the booklet that comes with them.  They can be used during treatments on yourself and others, or during your meditation time.  If you are intrigued by Sacred Geometry, you will most likely like these codes.  I finally purchased them when I was hungry for more after having treated myself and others with other Vincent codes for awhile.  These codes cost $230 plus s/h.

The Meridian Code "provides sound frequencies and geometry for opening meridians and aligning the subtle energy bodies for easier integration of Code programs.” People who are sensitive to fine energies are usually aware of the body’s energy opening up and flowing freer. Acupuncture clients working on chronic stagnation may enjoy this Code’s help as will energy-practitioners who do not use needles.

The Dimension Code: Based on "projective geometry," this code is used to access and align the proper dimensions necessary for the manifestations of desired goals.  May be used with the Manifestation Code under a client, by itself, or on a room full of participants needing a clearing.  This code may be as an operator connecting you with your Multiselves, supporting communication and connection.

The Metatron Matrix is a code brought to us by John Butler, a clairvoyant/dowser from New York.  It is recommended that the code be situated so that passers-by can look at it.  Just by taking a moment to examine the code, the person’s consciousness is increased.  Sensative people who have gazed at it comment on the various ways they can feel it working on them.  It also helps to settle the chakra’s spin to the correct direction.  This code may be placed on the body, held close to the body at the edge of the aura, and/or just put up on a wall.  In Nothing in This Book is True, But it’s Exactly How Things Are, Bob Frissell discusses Metatron’s Cube in detail.  One thing he says is, “All of the shapes I have been describing have been female energy curved lines, so one of the simplest and most obvious ways of adding male energy, in straight lines, is to connect all the centers of the spheres on the fruit of life.  If you do that you end up with a figure known as Metatron’s Cube.”[6]  Four out of the five three-dimensional Platonic solids can be seen within this code.  Frissell adds, “Even though it may not look like it, in fact we are nothing but geometrical images and shapes, both inside and out.”[7]  This is just one reason Sacred Geometry compliments us.  This code costs about $35 plus s/h.

Unseen forces play with humans on all levels: physical, mental, spiritual, and emotional. You can never be over prepared.  For more information, please visit http://www.chasnqi.com/ Contact Us and John Butler at www.ascensiontools.com.

Freedom in Governor Brown's Hands...YIKES!

  Governor Brown signed another chunk of our freedom away on September 30.

I suppose Brown thinks that parents of non-vaccinated children don't know how to read and so need to be forced by a law to go to a doctor to have him or her teach us about vaccinations.  

 

Never have I heard a doctor admit some children have been killed or maimed by vaccinations.  

 

We are to expect that doctors will happily sign a waiver for us when we get turned away by doctors who won't see kids who are not vaccinated.  

 

Warning: the next vaccination law will cut away at your freedoms even more.

Have You Asked Governor Brown To Veto AB2109 TODAY?

Dear California NVIC Advocacy Team Members,

Even if you’ve called or written the governor before to urge Governor Jerry Brown to Veto AB2109, we need EVERYONE calling, faxing, and emailing him today! There still has not been any action on the AB2109 by the governor and we only have until Sunday to get Governor Brown to Veto AB2109!  If everyone on this list makes a veto request today, maybe the Governor’s office will notice and do the right thing!

Governor Jerry Brown
Phone: (916) 445-2841
Fax: (916) 558-3160
Webmail: http://govnews.ca.gov/gov39mail/mail.php

Below is NVIC’s one page veto request to Governor Brown.  Feel free to use any points you like from it. If you receive any feedback, please let your California NVIC State Co-Directors, Dawn Winkler and Michelle Gutierrez, know at CADirector@NVICAdvocacy.org.  Thank you!

VETO AB2109 GOVERNOR BROWN

Plain and simply put, AB2109 will prohibit a child from attending school if their parent is unable to secure the additional burdensome requirement of a medical office visit and medical signature on their exemption form to mandatory vaccination. This can lead to truancy charges and damaging lapses in the child’s education.  It is very important to note that the vaccination status of the child will not change as a result of this bill becoming law, but the door to a free and public education for some children whose parents choose to delay or decline some vaccines will be closed forever.  

It is well documented that many physicians throw families out of their practice who don’t fully vaccinate (perform any internet search you like regarding doctors refusing to treat unvaccinated children to find numerous articles and studies).  Nothing in AB2109 compels a physician to accept an appointment with a partially vaccinated or unvaccinated child or sign the form if asked. Also, parents who cannot find a willing physician will be denied their right to exercise their religious beliefs in opposition to vaccination since Californians are reliant on the personal belief exemption to take an exemption to vaccine mandates for religious reasons. The state of California should not be putting medical personnel in charge as the gatekeepers of the free exercise of religion.

According to the Centers for Disease Control, vaccine refusals and disease importation are not to blame for pertussis outbreaks as bill supporters have tried to falsely imply.  (http://www.pbs.org/newshour/rundown/2012/08/whooping-cough-outbreak-top-10-things-you-should-know.html) Most cases are in the vaccinated and are due to lower levels of vaccine effectiveness and more rapidly waning protection than previously understood.  Further restricting current vaccine exemptions will not change this fact, it will only promote distrust in and resentment of public health programs by well-educated parents and health care providers who already know this.

AB2109 also creates an additional expense for an office visit with a practitioner that the family may not use.  Many parents cannot afford the time off from work or money for a new doctor visit and signature especially if they have multiple children.

The following is a list of vaccines in use or in current development: AIDS , Asthma, Botulism, Brucellosis, Chlamydia, Cocaine Addiction, Cytomegalovirus, Diabetes, Diphtheria, E-Coli (Shiga toxin), Genital Herpes, Giardiasis, Gonorrhea, Haemophilus influenza, Hepatitis A, Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, Heroin Addiction, High Blood Pressure, Human Papillomavirus, Influenza, Legionellosis, Lyme Disease, Malaria, Measles, Meningoccocal, Mumps, Novel H1N1 Influenza, Obesity, Pertussis, Polio,  Rubella, Salmonellosis, Shigellosis, Streptococcal group A, Streptococcus pneumonia, Syphilis, Tetanus, Tuberculosis, Typhoid Fever, Varicella (chickenpox), West Nile Virus.  

It is unreasonable to require a family to have a medical appointment and medical provider signature for wanting to delay or decline any of these vaccines. As more vaccines are added to the already fully packed mandatory schedule, this debate will only intensify unless the right to exercise informed consent to vaccination without medical harassment is upheld and respected. 

VETO AB2109

FINAL PUSH: Request CA Legislators Who Opposed AAB2109 During Session to ask Governor Brown for his VETO

Also Attend Veto Rally Friday from 12-2 pm in Sacramento, State Capitol West Steps

Dear California NVIC Advocacy Team Members,

AB2109, the bill that would restrict the personal belief exemption to mandated vaccines making it impossible for a child to attend school unless their parent obtains a medical visit and signature on the vaccine exemption form, was passed by the legislature on August 27^th, 2012.

Governor Brown holds the bill now, and if he does nothing with it, or signs it on or before September 30th, the bill becomes law.  However, if he Vetoes the bill, the vaccine exemption could be saved.

AB2109 received opposition from both political parties. Many legislators stepped up and offered oral arguments against the bill at various steps throughout the legislative process.  Some legislators are now contacting Governor Brown and urging his Veto on AB2109. 

We need for all of the legislators who took a stand against AB2109 to contact Governor Brown immediately to request he veto AB2109. 

If your Senator or Assemblyman ever voted “NO” on AB2109, we are counting on you to make a QUICK ONE MINUTE PHONE CALL to your legislator’s office to thank them for their opposition and ask them to contact Governor Brown to ask him to VETO AB2109!

This needs to be done right away! We need Governor Brown to Veto AB2109 on or before September 30^th otherwise AB2109 becomes law.

Here is what you can do to help:

1)    Look on this list of Senators and Assembly Members.  Did either of your legislators vote NO on AB2109 during the legislative process?

California State Senators who voted no on AB 2109: Anderson, Berryhill, Cannella, De León, DeSaulnier, Dutton, Emmerson, Fuller, Gaines, Huff, La Malfa, Runner, Strickland, Walters, Wyland.

California Assembly Members who voted no on AB 2109: Achadjian, Beth Gaines, Bill Berryhill, Conway, Cook, Donnelly, Garrick, Gatto, Gorell, Grove, Hagman, Halderman, Harkey, Huber, Jeffries, Jones, Knight, Logue, Mansoor , Miller, Morrell, Nestande, Nielsen, Norby, Olsen, Silva, Smyth, Valadao, Wagner.Don’t know who your legislators are? Legislative Lookup and Contact Information can be obtained by clicking on http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/yourleg.html and entering your zip code to lookup who your legsislators are or you can log into the NVIC Advocacy Portal at http://NVICAdvocacy.org, select your California State Team Page,  and click on your legislators names automatically displayed on the right side.

2)    If you have a Senator or Assembly Member on the lists above who voted “NO” on AB2109 at any time during the legislative process, call them or fax them and thank them for their NO Vote on AB2109 and ask them to PLEASE contact Governor Brown to ask him to VETO AB2109. Assembly Member Tim Donnelly has written an excellent open request to the Governor to Veto AB2109.  You can read it here: http://arc.asm.ca.gov/member/59/?p=article&sid=427&id=253064

3)    Keep calling and faxing Governor Brown himself to VETO AB2109.http://govnews.ca.gov/gov39mail/mail.php
Governor Jerry Brown
c/o State Capitol, Suite 1173
Sacramento, CA 95814
Phone: (916) 445-2841
Fax: (916) 558-3160

4)    If you can make time to attend and support the AB2109 VETO Rally this Friday, September 28^th from 12 pm – 2pm on the west steps of the Capitol, please go!  Your NVIC California State Directors Dawn Winkler and Michelle Gutierrez will be there, along with comedian/actor Rob Schneider, Assembly member Tim Donnelly, and others! Here is a personal request from NVIC CA State Director Dawn Winkler: “If you can make it, bring signs!!! Be creative! They were great last time. We need every single person possible to attend, this is the final stand. Media will undoubtedly be there and this should be quite the event. Should the bill be signed before then, the event will be a protest. Should the bill be vetoed before then, the event will be a HUGE CELEBRATION! The Governor often waits until the very last couple of days when it comes to controversial bills, so there is a chance he will have done nothing with the bill by then. This is a chance to really make some noise. No matter what, anyone who can come should try to be there! Updates and details regarding the rally can be found on the Californians Against AB2109 Facebook page.”

5)    If you need to contact NVIC California State Directors Dawn Winkler or Michelle Gutierrez about the rally or if you want to share information about your call to your legislators, they can be reached at CADirector@NVICAdvocacy.org.

Governor Brown and Senator Yee Are At it Again

 The following is a letter called Advocacy News put out by CSOMA, the California State Oriental Medical Association, for acupuncturists.  It seems Leland Yee is constantly bringing senseless, useless, acupuncture-related legislation up every year.  This actually got signed into law!

Tuesday, September 18, 2012

Legislative Update: Governor Signs SB 628 (Yee)

Last week, Governor Jerry Brown signed SB 628 (Yee), a bill regulating doctoral titles used by California licensed acupuncturists. CSOMA has received a number of inquiries regarding this new law. This email addresses some of the major questions we have received.

In this update…

• What does SB 628 do?
• Why was SB 628 enacted?
• Did CSOMA take a position on SB 628?
• Does this law impact my ability to use the title ‘doctor’ if its use isn’t connected with my practice?
• What licenses entitle me to use the title of ‘doctor’?
• What degrees entitle me to use the title of ‘doctor’?
• Do doctoral degrees earned abroad entitle me to use the title ‘doctor’?
• What is the proper way to use post-nominal letters?

What does SB 628 do?

Very little. SB 628 introduces nothing new. It simply takes decades-old California Acupuncture Board (CAB) regulation (16 CCR 1399.456: Use of the Title “Doctor”) and places this language—word for word—into statute. When it goes into effect on January 1, 2013, the new law will change nothing except that it will take away the CAB’s power to make changes to regulations governing doctoral titling. Any future changes in this area will require approval by the California legislature rather than the CAB.

Both the existing regulation and the new law prohibit acupuncturists from using the title ‘doctor’ or the abbreviation ‘Dr.’ in connection with an acupuncture practice unless s/he holds a doctoral title by license (e.g., MD) or unless s/he possesses an earned doctorate from an ‘accredited, approved, or authorized educational institution’ in acupuncture, oriental medicine, a biological science, or a field related to the practice of acupuncture. Both go on to prohibit the use of the title ‘doctor’ without further indicating the license or degree that authorizes its use.

Why was SB 628 enacted?

The purpose of moving CAB regulation into statute is unclear. This change does nothing more than eliminate the California Acupuncture Board’s authority to regulate in this area.

The bill’s author (Senator Leland Yee) asserts that this legislation will help improve the quality of acupuncture in California. The few supporters of the bill have claimed that the bill would raise the status of acupuncture in California and encourage advanced studies in the field.

Given that existing regulation is identical to the language of this bill and given that existing regulation has been in effect for more than 20 years, CSOMA did not and does not see meaningful or substantial positive impacts from this new law. Likewise, we do not anticipate substantial negative impacts.

Did CSOMA take a position on SB 628?

CSOMA took a ‘neutral’ position with respect to SB 628. Given negligible change to the status quo introduced by SB 628, we elected to focus our advocacy resources on higher priorities, including the successful defeat of SB 1488 (Yee), a bill that would have established a ‘California Traditional Chinese Medicine Traumatology Council’ without establishing adequate training standards.

Does this law impact my ability to use the title ‘doctor’ if its use isn’t connected with my practice?

No. SB 628 only restricts how a California licensed acupuncturist may use the title of ‘doctor’ in connection with the practice of acupuncture. It does not not impact how doctoral titles are used by licensed acupuncturists when this use is not connected with acupuncture practice in California.

What licenses entitle me to use the title of ‘doctor’?

Both current regulation and SB 628 are silent with respect to which other licenses would authorize the use of a doctoral title. Acupuncturists licensed in other medical disciplines should check with the relevant California licensing board(s) for information regarding authorization to use doctoral titles under these licenses.

For those California licensed acupuncturists who hold a doctoral title by license issued in another state (e.g., Doctor of Oriental Medicine in New Mexico, Doctor of Acupuncture in Rhode Island, medical doctor in any other state), we urge extreme caution. While SB 628 does not explicitly state that licenses authorizing the use of the title ‘doctor’ must be issued by California, it is reasonable to conclude that this is implied by the law.

What degrees entitle me to use the title of ‘doctor’?

To authorize the use of the title ‘doctor,’ both current regulation and SB 628 state that degrees must be:

1. An ‘earned doctoral degree;’
2. From an ‘accredited, approved, or authorized educational institution;’
3. In acupuncture, oriental medicine, a biological science, or is otherwise related to the authorized practice of an acupuncturist.

To meet criteria #2 above, an educational institution must either be:

1. Accredited by an accrediting agency recognized by the United States Department of Education; or
2. Approved or authorized to operate by California’s Bureau for Private Postsecondary Education (BPPE).

All DAOM post-graduate degree programs are accredited by Accreditation Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (ACAOM), a United States Department of Education recognized accrediting agency. Therefore, all of these degrees qualify.

CSOMA believes that the second standard (approval by BPPE) is inadequate. It is our view that all education in the field should be held to the significantly more rigorous United States Department of Education standards. This may be an issue for our field to address in the future. However, given the longstanding nature of existing regulation, CSOMA did not raise objections to SB 628.

Do doctoral degrees earned abroad entitle me to use the title ‘doctor’?

Both current regulation and SB 628 restrict the use of the title ‘doctor’ to those who have an ‘earned doctoral degree’ from an ‘accredited, approved, or authorized educational institution.’ Neither the United States Department of Education nor the California Bureau of Private Postsecondary Education (BPPE) regulate international educational institutions. Therefore, California licensed acupuncturists who have earned doctoral degrees abroad may not use this as the basis for using the title ‘doctor’ or the abbreviation ‘Dr.’ in conjunction with the practice of acupuncture.

It would appear that individuals with internationally earned doctorates in the field may still list these doctoral credentials after their name (e.g., Jane Doe, LAc, PhD) as long as these credentials are not false, misleading, or deceptive.

What is the proper way to use post-nominal letters?

This isn’t directly related to SB 628, but we’ve occasionally received questions regarding the proper use of post-nominal letters (i.e., letters placed after the name of a person to indicate that the individual holds a position, educational degree, accreditation, office, or honor). So we’ll take the opportunity to provide some guidance on this front.

Here are some guidelines generally used in the United States:

1. Post-nominal letters are typically listed in the following order:
   • Academic Degrees—listed lowest to highest (e.g., MBA, DAOM);
   • Honorary degrees;
   • Professional licenses (e.g, LAc)—listed from highest to lowest importance (as you determine) or alphabetically;
   • Professional certifications;
   • Professional associations and affiliations.
2. List only the highest degree earned in a particular discipline (e.g., ‘Jane Doe, DAOM, LAc’; not ‘Jane Doe, MSTCM, DAOM, LAc’).
3. If a doctoral post-nominal is used (e.g., DAOM), don’t use ‘Dr.’ prior to your name; this is redundant. It’s ‘Jane Doe, DAOM, LAc,’ not ‘Dr. Jane Doe, DAOM, LAc.’
4. Generally, no more than three post-nominals are listed unless you have a compelling reason to list more.

Additionally, current regulation, SB 628, and California Attorney General Opinion No. 87–103 all clearly indicate that a California licensed acupuncturist may not use the title ‘doctor’ or the abbreviation ‘Dr.’ without also indicating the type of license or degree that authorizes this use. For example, ‘Dr. Jane Doe’ and ‘Dr. Jane Doe, LAc’ are not permissible as they do not also indicate the doctoral license or degree. ‘Dr. Jane Doe, DAOM, LAc’ or ‘Dr. Jane Doe, MD, LAc’ are permitted (assuming, of course, that you hold a DAOM degree or MD license respectively); however, as we noted above, the prefix of ‘Dr.’ is not typically used concurrently with doctoral post-nominal letters (e.g., DAOM or MD).

California Attorney General Opinion No. 87–103 makes clear that using the initials ‘OMD’ or the title ‘Oriental Medical Doctor’ without further information that removes the implication that the individual is a physician or surgeon. For example, ‘Jane Doe, OMD’ is not permissible; ‘Jane Doe, OMD, LAc’ is permissible assuming that the OMD degree was granted by an accredited or approved institution as explained above.

Finally, all of the restrictions on the use of doctoral titles apply equally to written and spoken communications in connection with the practice of acupuncture. The law does not make a distintion between the two.
