Actions and Words…

I once thought I had a friend. That friend turned out to be not a friend at all, but someone I didn’t really know, just thought I did. I found this out through that person’s actions towards one of the horses I raised from a baby.

I saw hunger in that horse’s eyes when I brought him home from that person’s care. Not just a “hungry for the next meal” look, but the look of starvation.  I spent two days crying after I brought him home. It’s been five days now, and he is on the road to recovery. He is starting to perk up when he sees me, but I still get tears in my eyes when I think about what he must have endured.

A person can have all of the knowledge in the world, and be the smartest person in the world, but unless that person has compassion and really cares about what happens to others, I will not listen to anything he/she has to say. In other words,  if you are abusive, nothing you say means anything to me. I think this is the way most people are. We want to know that the people we associate with care. My horses are my children, and I love them dearly. Starve them and you starve me.

So here is my message to anyone who feels that what they say takes precedence over what they do:

I don’t need your knowledge. Knowledge comes and goes, and what one person knows, another will know. Therefore, I can choose my sources for things I need or want to know. Don’t expect me to forget your actions and listen to your words. Don’t try to talk to me about “important things” when you’ve just committed an act of extreme callousness and cruelty. In fact, don’t talk to me at all. When you can prove that you have grown a heart and care, then I might begin to listen. But I will always remember your actions with every word you speak. And actions speak much louder than words.

“The potential for RFID tagging of livestock is billions yearly and the potential for radio tagging of food is in trillions a year…”

U.S. Vs Canada Smack Down in October?

Not exactly how you expected to start your day is it? A little background might be in order.

In 1990 the creation of the National Advisory Board on Animal Identification was created to begin offering livestock traceability initiatives in Canada. Not content to use the systems in place that had proven effect in cost, labor and common sense, the Advisory Board determined that streamlining through Rfid tagging and individual reporting of livestock was the way to go.

Determining the total cost for this voluntary program over the past 19 years is impossible. I’d like to say names have been changed to protect the innocent, but it is more likely the “Program” and    Canadian Government simply don’t want the public to know the tax burden they bear. One can find the most recent funding totals $20 million over the next 3 years from The Canadian Industry Traceability Infrastructure Program.

However, in order to ensure that farmers, feedlots and others affected will be able to participate by the January 1, 2011 deadline, the Canadian Government announced a 70% rebate on handheld or panel readers (see fake cow ear below). The costs for CAN ID are considerable as stated by their own numbers   “Livestock producers, feedlots, veterinary clinics, meat processors, fairs and exhibitions are eligible for a maximum rebate of $50,000 per facility. Auction marts can get a maximum rebate of $100,000.”  That translates to a possible  investment of $71,429 to $142,857 per facility. Ouch.

 

Defining genetically modified organisms as invasive and alien species

PJ Gazette

Copyright 2009 © Marti Oakley All rights reserved without exception.

Official U.S. definitions regarding invasive species were clearly provided in Executive Order 13112 signed by President William J. Clinton on February 3, 1999.

“Invasive species” means an alien species whose introduction does or is likely to cause economic or environmental harm or harm to human health.

“Alien species” means, with respect to a particular ecosystem, any species, including its seeds, eggs, spores, or other biological material capable of propagating that species, that is not native to that ecosystem.

“Species” means a group of organisms all of which have a high degree of physical and genetic similarity, generally interbreed only among themselves, and show persistent differences from members of allied groups of organisms.

“Ecosystem” means the complex of a community of organisms and its environment.

_________________

Alien plant species, also known as genetically modified organisms, were engineered and introduced into natural environments specifically designed to spread rapidly. Because they are so uncontrollable and engineered to be aggressive, these aberrations of science gone mad rapidly overtake naturally occurring ecosystems and destroy the biodiversity needed to sustain not only the land, but the life on it. Alien GMO species are an unwelcome interruption, displacing natural plants and crops and all animal species dependent upon them for survival.  Continue reading

High-Fructose Corn Syrup Produces Toxic Chemical “HMF” When Heated

(NaturalNews) If you know anything about the food supply, you know that honey bees are a crucial part of the food production chain. In the United States, they pollinate roughly one-third of all the crops we eat, and without them, we’d be facing a disastrous collapse in viable food production.

 

Coal Mining Mountaintop Removal Destroys Natural Root Beds

What is the price we pay for coal mining? Destruction of the natural environment that sustains our health.

Carol is a root digger. She digs sassafras root, wild yam, black cohosh, yellowroot, goldenseal, and bloodroot for her mom’s skin cancers. A coal company is destroying her root beds and natural heritage by removing a nearby mountaintop to extract the coal.

Watch the video and understand that we are not alone. Everyone and everything is connected. You cannot destroy one piece of this earth without it affecting another piece. Is stripping the land of coal really worth the awful price?

Officials Say Don’t Blame the Swine Flu Shot, You’ll Drop Dead Anyway

The H1N1 vaccination propaganda machine is going full-tilt, and the timetable for rapid population reduction is upon us. This is soooooo obvious, people! They are telling us what is going to happen before it happens, because they are going to cause it. They know people will drop dead after the shot, and are putting out the pre-op denial propaganda so that people will think, ‘hey, they warned us of this, and it is nothing to worry about.’
