Aware & Safe

Rape - this word strikes fear in the heart of many women. 1 in 6 women will be raped in their lifetime. 1 in 3 will be sexually assaulted. Rape is the most violent form of crime that occurs on college campuses today. 25% of college students will be raped before college graduation.

When many female students go to college, it is their first time away from home. They set their own curfews, go to parties that go late or all night. Many students have classes that go well after sunset.

There are some ways to protect yourself at night & at parties to help you to avoid becoming a victim of a rape or sexual assault.

1. Use a buddy system. Don't go out alone at night. Whether you are leaving your dorm or apartment for a walk or a run to the convenience store, ask a room mate or friend to go with you. If you are leaving a class after dark, walk out with a classmate or have your professor walk out with you if you are the last one to leave the classroom.

2. Use your car key as a weapon. Put your car key between your index finger & middle finger. If you are attacked, you can use this key to poke, scratch or gouge at your attacker to inflict enough injury to get away to a safe location.

3. If you go a party, keep your drink in your sight at all time. 90% of all rapes occur while a person is under the influence of alcohol. Rohypnol can be slipped into a drink & you won't even know it's there. It is tasteless, odorless & doesn't cloud a clear drink. There are signs that you have been drugged with Rohypnol, they are - It creates a sleepy, relaxed, and drunk feeling that lasts 2 to 8 hours. Other effects may include blackouts, with a compete loss of memory, dizziness and disorientation, nausea, difficulty with motor movements and speaking.

If you've been the victim of a sexual assault then you need to seek medical treatment as soon as possible. Rohypnol can detected in a urine test up to 60 hours after being ingested by a victim. If you take a shower, all of the evidence will be washed away. Its best to get a rape kit done sooner rather than later. A rape kit will be done to check for fluids on the skin & in or around the vaginal area, to look for skin under the fingernails, pubic hair from your attacker & any other injuries that might have been inflicted during the attack. Rape kits for minors are mandatory for some states but optional in other states.

You will then give a statement to the police. As embarassing as it might be, it's necessary to be done as soon as possible after the attack since the memory of the attack will be fresh in your mind. Some departments have female officers that work with rape victims, ask if there is one available.
After giving your statement, the county attorney will decide if there is enough evidence to procede to a trial or if there is insufficient evidence. Sometimes, if your assailant says they did nothing wrong & there is very little evidence to go on, the case be will closed.

The anniversary date of your assault may bring up memories. If your attacker dies, this can bring up powerful memories, sometimes of relief that you don't have to worry about that person anymore if they weren't convicted. It can also bring about feelings of anger if the evidence collected wasn't enough to go to trial.

There are resources out there to help a victim get thru their attack & move on. THERE IS life after a rape or sexual assault.

Lets stay Aware & Safe this semester.

SANE Vax to FDA: Recombinant HPV DNA found in multiple samples of Gardasil

Greetings friends,

As things finally calm down a bit around the home front, a new development has appeared in the fight against Gardisil. This will be sent to all media outlets worldwide over the next 2 days, hopefully they will do something with it.

The Honorable Margaret A. Hamburg, M.D., Commissioner
U. S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
10903 New Hampshire Ave.
Silver Spring MD 20993-0002August 29, 2011
Dear Dr. Hamburg:

At the request of medical consumers concerned about HPV vaccine safety and efficacy, SANE Vax Inc. has retained a private laboratory to test a number of samples of HPV 4 Gardasil™ (Merck) for possible contamination by human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA in the vaccine lots distributed to physicians.

The laboratory has informed SANE Vax Inc. that one hundred percent of thirteen (13) samples of Gardasil™ taken from lots #1437Z, #1511Z, # 0553AA, #NL35360, #NP23400, #NN33070, #NL01490, #NM25110, #NL39620, #NK16180, #NK00140, #NM08120 and #NL13560, currently being marketed in the U.S.A., Australia, New Zealand, Spain, France, and Poland have been found to be positive for HPV DNA.

One of the HPV DNA fragments detected in the vaccine is part of a synthetic construct (GenBank Locus SCU55993) for HPV11 major capsid protein L1 gene, a recombinant DNA genetically engineered specifically for manufacturing of the Gardasil vaccine. Its unique sequence is copied below for your reference.

BIG Event coming to the Lincoln, NE area

Greetings everyone,

A friend in Lincoln, NE has told me of a BIG event coming to his area. If you are within driving distance of Lincoln, I encourage you to attend this seminar.

Protandim...Nature and God at work like a symphonyby

Protandim: The ONLY known activator of SOD (superoxide dismutase), catalase, and glutathione enzyme actions.

Nrf2 gene expressions are the most powerful cytoprotective genes to modern nutritional science.

Validated by over 29 medical universities, here and around the world, endorsed with FDA approvals, this one product will unveil the most remarkable recoveries ever witnessed in modern times.

NEVER before, in history, has a university or college of medicine ever studied a nutritional product. Those that are doing so now, are doing it at their cost, independently of each other, blind to their studies, all confirming each other's hypothesis.

THIS WILL BE THE MOST REMARKABLE support for parents of ASD children, cancers, autoimmune derailments, over 200 diseases.

You would need to consume over 87 glasses of red wine, 350 oranges, over 30 pounds of raspberries, 11 pounds of blueberries, 15 pounds of dark chocolate, or 120 vitamin 500 mg C tablets every day to equal the antioxidant power you receive from just one Protandim caplet daily.

We will be reviewing how our bodies can do what they are designed to do when provided with what they require to enable their design. We are seeing over 4000 gene actions that are upregulated in healthy fashion that support proper physiological processes. You will not want to miss this opportunity. Dates and location will be posted as we move forward. Plan on opening your schedules for this wonderful medical professional to educate us about the wonders of herbal applications.Dr Marvin has a CV that is a mile long. He was a former teaching doctor at Kansas State, as well as, Oral Roberts University in Oklahoma.


I'm going to take time from writing full blog entries. I have a lot to deal with in my personal life right now, so something needs to give a bit. I'll be posting short little entries like this one everyone once in awhile.

Have a good week,

Lori

To age or not to age, that is the question

Greetings,

A couple of weeks ago, my husband & I went to his 35 year class reunion. A total stranger could look at him & say "no way are you almost 53 years old" but he is. He has just a few gray hairs here & there, you have to really look to find them. We were looking at his classmates, many were fully gray or about 50% there. When we go to my class reunions (I graduated 12 years after he did), he looks like he belongs in my class.

Here is a link to his pic, does he look like he'll be 53 in September?

http://i226.photobucket.com/albums/dd52/mopar28m/100_1744.jpg

Now, what does my funny husband contribute his youthful appearance to? Well, we follow the dietary laws listed in Lev. 11, he gets at least 20 min. a day in the sun with 40% body exposure to get his Vit. D to keep his immune system healthy & I'm sure his corny sense of humor has a bit to do with it also.

I'm sure many of you are saying "Lori, where is your pic?". I'll be posting mine soon, just don't happen to have any I'm really happy with at the moment. Ladies, I'm sure you can agree with me on this.

Still looking into Chelation therapy methods. So much info to sift thru, you really need to discern what is truth & what is fiction.

My daughter got her wisdom teeth out yesterday morning. Everything went well & she slept most of the 2 1/2 hour trip home. She is taking Vicodin for the pain, Penicillen to keep any infection at bay & starts swishing with a mouthwash twice a day today. After she gets done with her antibiotics, we'll have to start her on probiotics to rebuild the flora in the gut area. Antibiotics destroy the flora & can cause digestion problems. She wasn't swelled up to much yesterday but is starting to swell up now. We are using hot, moist compresses to keep the swelling at bay. She has many days of R&R ahead of her. With heat indexes well above 100 for the next few days, she'll get to bask in our a/c.

Have a good weekend & a Happy 4th of July to my readers that celebrate it.

Lori

May 28, 2011

Each week is a challenge to come up with a new topic for a blog entry. While I'm listening to Mary Tocco on Republic Broadcasting Network (rbn.com), I pull up my blog web page & just start typing. Some days there is a purpose with my topic & other days its just thoughts to put towards a future topic.

Thank you to all of my faithful readers, its been a pleasure serving you.

Stay safe & well my friends,

My path to a healthier life - Part 1

Greetings,

As the idea of Meniere's Disease sets in, the prospect of losing control of my life is hard to handle. One of the last stages of the disease is loss of hearing. I can't imagine life like that. I love to listen to music to much & watch movies on TV. I don't know for sure I have it, as a series of tests need to be done to know for sure. I've decided to take a pro-active approach to my health.

As I was looking thru my stats tonight, I came across some search words that gave me an idea of what I may be dealing with & a possible solution. The key words were "do vaccines cause meniere's". This possibility never came to mind. As a child, I received the vaccinations that were "required" for kids to enter school back in 1975. Lets take a look at the vaccine schedule for kids back then.

2 months: DTP, TOPV (trivalent oral polio virus)
4 months: DTP, TOPV
6 months: DTP, TOPV
1 year: Measles, TB test
1-12 years: Rubella, Mumps
1 1/2 years: DTP, TOPV
4-6 years: DTP, TOPV

I remember getting a shot in the backside prior to entering school. It made me sick & I slept for over 12 hours after getting it. In 2nd grade, I remember distinctly my classmates getting a vaccine during school hours. Shortly after they got it, many started complaining of dizziness, seeing double & nausea. Many of them went home within a couple of hours of getting the vaccine. I don't remember exactly which one it was but somehow I got out of it.

Even though I never received any vaccines beyond the age of 5, I did receive many allergy shots between the ages of 7 & 10. I've wondered for the last few years, did those shots contain Thimerosal, mercury or other toxins? I'm going to be heading up to the city in about 10 days where my allergist had his office which I'm sure has changed hands a few times since the last time I was there back in the late 80s to see if they still have my records. I'm going to ask to see if the insert that came with the shots. That will put the first piece of the puzzle into place.

Now that I have one possible piece of mercury tracked down, what about other areas? One web page I was reading, it was talking about amalgam fillings. I've never had any of those, so cross that off the list. Many in the dental field will say that amalgam fillings are safe. However, long term safety studies have never been done on amalgam fillings. I know some people who have had their fillings removed & they have started to feel better. Hmm, coincidence? I don't think so. Nickel is used in braces, this is the 3rd toxic metal when it comes to neurotoxins. (mercury & aluminum are the first two respectively) How many thousands of kids have had braces during their teens years? I can count myself among the unfortunate one of those teens. For 3 1/2 years (I was only told I would have them for 2 years), I had those in my mouth. My daughter is supposed to be getting them this summer. I'm going to see if we can pay the difference between the regular braces (which the insurance will cover) & the invisalign ones to avoid her from having the toxic metal in her mouth.

This video below shows a smoking tooth, 50 years after it was removed from a mouth. It is still letting loose mercury vapors. Imagine what it is doing in a persons mouth.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ylnQ-T7oiA

My husband got a porcelain crown when he was about 11 years old. If you look at the back of his crown there is a heavy metal holding it in place. I've talked to dentists who are familiar with dentistry of the 50s, 60s & 70s & they have told me it is mercury based. We are going to have it removed & replaced with a mercury-free replacement. This removal involves a vacuum system to pull the mercury fumes away from the patient. The mercury that is removed is considered hazmat & will to be disposed of as such. Funny, how its ok to put mercury in a persons mouth but has to be treated as hazmat once its removed.

Next step in finding thimerosal & mercury in my life is to look at my food & environment. I don't live near a coal mine, so that rules that out. I'll be looking at other possible sources of heavy metals & other sources of toxins. High fructose corn syrup has been known to have mercury in it. I've just about eliminated all of that from our diet. Since heavy metals are known to accumulate in the brain, even though I've eliminated them from my diet, they are still in my system.

So, the next step is Chelation therapy. That helped Desiree Jennings when she was injured by the flu shot. After several sessions of chelation therapy, she was able to walk & talk normally. So, maybe if I get the mercury & other heavy metals out of my system, my body can start to heal itself.

That will be the next topic of my blog. I'll be looking at the different types of chelation therapy, the advantages & disadvantages of each kind & which route I'm going to go. I'm also going to look into whole body detoxifying. I've read that if you detoxify the body one area at a time, the toxins just go to other parts of the body so you have to do it all at once. There are a few different detoxifiers out there, so I will have to see which one is the best one to go with.

Til next time, have a good week,

Lori
