Alternative Treatments & Cancer:
Alternative Treatments & Cancer:
On Wednesday's show, health freedom advocate and author Ty Bollinger discussed alternative treatments and approaches against cancer. He believes that cancer rates have greatly increased in the last thirty years due to toxic factors and carcinogens in the environment. Among the factors, he pointed to such things as chemtrails, GMO foods, aspartame, fluoride, and EMF which weren't in our environment decades ago. Bollinger believes these factors have compromised many people's immune systems, making them less able to identify cancer cells and destroy them, as would be done by a normally healthy individual. He cited an alarming statistic from the World Health Organization-- 41% of people alive today will eventually come down with some type of cancer.
We're not winning the 'War on Cancer' (declared by Pres. Nixon over 40 years ago), as more people are dying than ever before, and standard treatments like surgery, radiation and chemotherapy have remained largely unchanged over the years. The reason, perhaps, that things have stayed the same is that these standard approaches are extremely lucrative, Bollinger remarked, adding that 'Big Pharma' seeks profits for their medications, while there's an effort to push people away from natural remedies.
Breast cancer and prostate cancer could be associated with a lack of exercise, he reported, as exercise stimulates the lymphatic system-- a primary detoxification system in the body. Bollinger recommends jumping on a mini-trampoline for 20 minutes a day, which he says is a great activator for the lymph system. He also commented on cases where parents are forced to agree to chemo treatments for their children when they have cancer, which he considers a usurping of parental rights. For a list of alternative cancer treatments, check out a recap from his 2/1/11 show appearance.
Sunken Artifacts & Atlantis:
First hour guest, author, filmmaker, and teacher Carmen Boulter talked about an underwater discovery of Egyptian period artifacts. Because of a UNESCO regulation, the artifacts must be kept in the sea water they were found in in order to be preserved. The artifacts were from a city called Thonis (Egyptian name) or Heracleion (Greek name), which was submerged by a series of earthquakes, the final one in the 8th century AD. Boulter announced that she's working on a new documentary series called The New Atlantis-- she believes the main land mass of Atlantis (about the size of Texas) was submerged in a location near the Azores, after an asteroid hit in 13,660 BC.

John Zawahri, 23, Identified as Suspected Santa Monica Shootings Gunman
By JOHN SCHRIFFEN and ALEXIS SHAW | Good Morning America – 1 hour 24 minutes ago
Surveillance video footage released today shows fearful Santa Monica, Calif., restaurant-goers ducking under tables as a man, whom ABC News has identified as 23-year-old John Zawahri, opens fire outside, part of a shooting rampage in which four people were killed.
"He shot 16 shots," restaurant owner Chedi Abed told ABC Los Angeles affiliate KABC-TV.
In addition, authorities released surveillance camera images of the gunman, whose name has not been officially announced by police, entering the Santa Monica Collegelibrary wielding an assault rifle.
Arezou Zakarai, who was in the library at the time of the shootings, told ABC News she was happy to be alive after the chilling ordeal.
"Three girls ran into the library yelling, 'There's a shooter! He has a gun! Help! Oh no!'" she said. "I got under a table and then there were three consecutive shots."
Santa Monica Police Chief Jacqueline Seabrooks said that once in the library, the gunman allegedly shot at students who barricaded themselves inside a "safe room."
"They stacked items found in the safe room against the door, hunkered down and avoided shots that were fired through the drywall at them as they were in that room," Seabrooks said in a news conference on Saturday.
He allegedly killed four people in what authorities characterized as a deliberate attack before he was gunned down in a shootout with police in the library.
Police said the suspect was wearing a protective vest and carrying so much weaponry he was, in the words of one official, "ready for battle."
"I would presume anytime someone puts on a vest of some sort and has a bag of loaded magazines as an extra receiver, has a handgun and has a semi automatic rifle, carjacks folks, goes to a college, kills more people and has to be neutralized at hands of police -- I would stay that's premeditated," Seabrooks said.
Police confirmed that the suspect would have turned 24 years old on Saturday and that he, along with another family member, had a connection to Santa Monica College.
He was carrying approximately 1,300 rounds of ammunition, in addition to a revolver and a rifle similar to an AR-15 semi-automatic in a duffel bag, Seabrooks said.
Police had responded to an earlier incident involving the suspect in 2006, Seabrooks said, but she could not release anything more about that incident because he was a minor at the time.
On Friday, authorities first responded to a report of shots fired at 11:52 a.m. PT and found a house on fire. Two dead bodies were found inside the home, fire officials said. Authorities said the dead bodies were related to the shooter, but they did not specify how.
Firefighters were able to quickly extinguish the fire in the front room before finding the bodies, which were toward the rear of the house. Authorities told reporters they were still investigating what caused the fire.
A few minutes after noon, Santa Monica authorities started getting calls that a city bus was being hit with gunfire. The suspected gunman had reportedly carjacked a woman at gunpoint and forced her to drive him to Santa Monica College's campus, spraying bullets at nearby vehicles on the route.
Two people riding a city bus sustained minor injuries from the gunfire.
Joe Orcutt told ABC News he came face to face with the shooter.
"When I saw the gun pointing at me, I ducked and heard the bullet whiz by," he said.
According to police, the suspect fired on two people in a Ford Explorer in the campus faculty parking lot. That vehicle later crashed into a block wall.
The driver was killed and the passenger was in critical condition, authorities said. The man killed was confirmed to be 68-year-old Carlos Navarro Franco, a Santa Monica College employee. His daughter, Marcela Franco, 26, who is a student at California State University, Dominguez Hills, remains in critical condition.
California State University, Dominguez Hills president Willie J. Hagan issued a statement on the school's Facebook page asking students to "keep Marcela and her family in your prayers."
The woman, who was forced to drive the shooter to the Santa Monica College campus, was unharmed.
Once on campus, the suspected shooter, who was dressed in all black, opened fire at bystanders, fatally shooting one woman and before he went inside a library on campus, police said. Authorities did not identify the woman who was killed by name, but said she was appeared to be white and in her 50's.
Once in the library, the shooter initially tried to shoot students in a "safe room," according to Seabrooks. But the students were able to barricade the door.
"He continued to shoot at them," Seabrooks said. "The officers came in and directly engaged the suspect, and he was shot and killed on the scene."
Three officers engaged the suspect according to authorities, two from the Santa Monica Police Department and one from Santa Monica College.
While authorities first stated the shootings left as many as six people dead, they later downgraded to five deaths, which included four victims and the shooter himself.
Lewis suggested the initial overcount may have been caused by overlapping witness reports of the same fatalities.
In addition to the dead, at least five people were injured, police said.
The college campus went on lockdown following the shootings as police attempted to secure the scene. Students would be allowed to return for their vehicles Saturday and other belongings Sunday. The campus was expected to reopen Monday morning at 7 a.m.
In 911 calls, the shooter was described as armed with several weapons.
Elsewhere on the campus, a person of interest was taken into custody, then released when his claim not to be involved checked out. According to Lewis, the man found a duffle bag belonging to the suspected shooter that had magazines, a handgun and part of a rile in side. Police temporarily detained him soon after that.
Santa Monica College student Sam Luster was preparing for a presentation in the school's library when he heard gunfire.
"We didn't know what was happening until all the students at the entrance of the library started running down towards the bottom of the library," Luster told ABC News Los Angeles station KABC.
Luster took cover under a desk before moving towards an exit. He said he heard multiple gunshots near the exit.

Chinese baby boy Rescuted after mother flushes him down the Toilet
Why human being are so cruel.I hope God has seen this and bring before her justice.......
Posted: 07 Jun 2013 04:49 AM PDT
Being nursed back to health: The abandoned baby boy is pictured being fed in hospital after firefighters rescued him from a sewage pipe after he was apparently flushed down a toilet in Jinhua, Zhejiang Province
The mother of the newborn baby boy flushed down a toilet in China watched in secret as rescuers dramatically plucked him alive from a sewer pipe.
The 22-year-old woman is believed to have raised the initial alarm but only confessed to police after they searched her rented room and found toys and blood-stained toilet paper, the Chinese state news agency reported.
The two-day-old, 5lb boy has been temporarily named Baby 59 – the number of the incubator in which he lies with a fractured skull and severe bruising.
In scenes captured on video and posted online, firemen desperately sawed away at the four-inch-wide pipe just below a ceiling in which the boy was trapped.
The rescuers then rushed the section of pipe to a hospital, where firemen and doctors alternately used pliers and saws to take it apart.
The infant’s arms were pinned to his side and when the pipe was prised away, he let out a long wail at the Pujiang County People’s Hospital in Jinhua, eastern China. He was still attached to the placenta.
Baby 59’s condition was said to be stable and he should recover. But the incident has succeeded in outraging a country in which brutal acts against youngsters are a common occurrence.
Reunited: The baby boy’s mother – believed to be a 22-year-old single woman – has been found and is said to be with her baby in hospital
Injured: A nurse said the baby boy – who weighs 6.2 pounds – suffered a fracture to his skull but is now in a stable condition
Recovering: The baby boy has been nicknamed number 59 after the number of his incubator
Police initially said they were treating the case of as possible attempted homicide, but it was not immediately clear whether the mother would face any criminal charges.
A police officer said she had hidden her pregnancy and claimed the baby fell into the lavatory after she unexpectedly gave birth. ‘The woman was on the scene during the entire rescue process … and admitted she was the mother when we asked her.’
He said police were still investigating whether she had any ‘malicious intentions’ before deciding on charges.
Harrowing: Firefighters work to free the unwanted baby from the pipe in Pujiang, Zhejiang Province, China
Fight for survival: The newborn baby was rescued by firefighters after being flushed down a toilet
At a public toilet on the fourth floor firefighters were able to hear faint cries and, exploring further, spotted the baby’s foot deep inside the pipe
The single woman, a tenant in the building, told police she could not afford an abortion and secretly delivered the child Saturday afternoon in the toilet.
She said the newborn slipped into the sewer line and that she alerted her landlord of the trapped baby after she could not pull the child out, Zhejiang News said.
The landlord of the building said there were no signs that the birth took place in the restroom and she had not been aware of any recent pregnancies among her tenants.
But the mother told police she cleaned up the toilet after the delivery and that she had managed to hide her pregnancy by wearing loose clothes and tightly wrapping her abdomen.
Unbelievably, the baby survived the ordeal, which saw him having to be cut out of a pipe
Firefighters received a call from a landlady of a block of flats saying that she thought a baby was trapped in a toilet pipe in the building as she had heard it crying
Hundreds of thousands of Chinese people took to Weibo – their version of Twitter – to vent their fury at the mother, believed to be an unmarried 22-year-old.
News of the rescue also prompted an outpouring of help from locals who came to the hospital armed with nappies, baby clothes, powdered milk and even offers to adopt the child.
Nurse Zhang Songhe told the Daily Mail that the mother of the baby was with him in hospital. ‘I don’t know the reason she abandoned the baby.
‘We’re going to take care of the baby. We are not sure when the baby can be discharged.’
She added: ‘When the baby arrived here, he was in critical condition.
‘We suspect he has a fracture in the top right section of his skull. But now everything has been stabilized.’
The firefighters worked quickly to dismantle the pipe and rescue the trapped youngster, who was heard wailing
Firefighters gently carried away the section of pipe that contained the terrified baby
Residents living in a residential building in Jinhua in the wealthy coastal province of Zhejiang reported the sound of a baby crying in the public restroom on Saturday.
The landlord of the building in Pujiang county told Zhejiang News that it was unlikely the birth took place in the restroom because there was no evidence of blood and she was not aware of any recent pregnancies among her tenants.
The baby was stuck in an L-shaped portion of the sewage pipe with a diameter of about 10 centimeters (3 inches).
There are many reports in Chinese media of babies being abandoned, often shortly after birth, making this incident a distressing but common occurrence
Doctors carefully cut around the sewage pipe to rescue the baby boy inside
The video shows rescuers sawing off a section of the pipe along a ceiling that apparently was just below the restroom.
His eyes, face and body were covered in the filth of the pipe.
There are frequent reports in Chinese media of babies being abandoned often shortly after birth, a problem attributed variously to young mothers unaware they were pregnant, the birth of an unwanted girl in a society which puts greater value on boys or China’s strict family planning rules.
The case has been widely discussed on China’s Twitter-like service Sina Weibo due to the graphic nature of the footage, with calls for the parents to be severely punished.
People have angrily reacted to the news, demanding the parents be punished and denouncing their cruel act
The child is in a stable condition and the police are looking for his parents, Chinese state television reported
The abandoned child has been named Baby No 59 from the number of his incubator, according to reports
Nurses treat the baby, who was believed to be only a few days old when he was flushed away
‘The parents who did this have hearts even filthier than that sewage pipe,’ wrote one user.
It was not immediately clear how the baby ended up in the toilet, but police said they were treating the case as an attempted homicide.
The Pujiang county police bureau said on its official microblog account that the boy’s mother has been located and that an investigation is ongoing, but gave no further details.

Kamsky Wins U.S. Championship in Playoff; Karjakin Triumphs in Norway
By Edward Scimia,
It was a busy week in the world of chess, as the U.S Championships were winding down and the Norway Chess tournament had many of the world's top players in action as well. As I mentioned last week, Irina Krush won the U.S. Women's title outright, but the overall Championship was down to a playoff between perennial contender Gata Kamsky and the surprising Alejandro Ramirez. The playoff consisted of two rapid games, and Kamsky had the better of the play in both instances. But after being unable to reach a winning position with the white pieces, Kamsky was then surprised to see Ramirez find a stalemate tactic that allowed him to once again escape with a draw in the second rapid game, meaning we still
It was a busy week in the world of chess, as the U.S Championships were winding down and the Norway Chess tournament had many of the world's top players in action as well. As I mentioned last week, Irina Krush won the U.S. Women's title outright, but the overall Championship was down to a playoff between perennial contender Gata Kamsky and the surprising Alejandro Ramirez. The playoff consisted of two rapid games, and Kamsky had the better of the play in both instances. But after being unable to reach a winning position with the white pieces, Kamsky was then surprised to see Ramirez find a stalemate tactic that allowed him to once again escape with a draw in the second rapid game, meaning we still
The tournament then came down to an Armageddon game in which one player would take White and need to score a win in order to win the tournament, while the other player would have Black with draw odds. In order to determine the colors, the players essentially bid for Black (and the draw odds) by secretly writing how little time they'd be willing to take as Black against a White player with 45 minutes. Kamsky bid 20 minutes, but Ramirez bid 19:45, giving him the black pieces with a significant time disadvantage. In the end, that may have proved decisive, as Ramirez was down to his increment by the end of the game. Kamsky eventually found himself up three pawns, and despite the best defensive efforts of Ramirez, that proved to be enough to score a win. For more details on the games in the playoff match, check out this report with photos from ChessBase!
Meanwhile, an even bigger event was taking place in Norway, where most of the world's elite met to battle for the Norway Chess title. Sergey Karjakin got out to a blistering fast start, winning his first four games to open up a lead on the field. Not surprisingly, hometown hero Magnus Carlsen was one of the contenders who struck back, beating Karjakin in their individual match to give himself a real chance to catch the leader. But a late loss by Carlsen (to Wang Hao) left him just short at the end, as Karjakin won the tournament with a 6/9 score -- a half-point ahead of Carlsen and Hikaru Nakamura. World Champion Viswanathan Anand was on hand as well (he finished with a solid 5/9 score), but there were no real fireworks in the Anand-Carlsen encounter, which ended in a draw. It would be a surprise to see any spectacular games between them before the World Championship match, as both sides will likely save their best preparation for that encounter.

Drone flies through hoops — guided by brainwaves
University of Minnesota
Guided by brainwaves, a Parrot quadracopter flew through two orange hoops.
Five test "pilots" recruited by Bin He's bioengineering lab sat at a desk in a gymnasium wearing a skullcap with 64 electrodes, and took turns individually flying the machine up, down, sideways, and through vibrant orange hoops strung from the ceiling.
The pilots didn't watch the drone. Instead, as if in a video game, they watched a screen to see what the copter saw via a camera installed on the front of the machine. They controlled the direction of flight by thinking about moving their limbs in the direction they wanted the drone to fly. Thinking about clenching the right or left fist turned the copter in that direction. Thinking about clenching both fists made the drone fly up, and thinking about neither made it drop.
As a run-up to a trial using a real copter, members of the same research crew demonstrated how subjects wearing a similar brainwave tracker could control a helicopter in a virtual game. But controlling a virtual copter required up to 12 hours of training in a virtual environment. "Some people are much better than others," He said.
Previously, the educational group Puzzlebox has flown orb-shaped copters using an off-the-shelf EEG headset made by the company NeuroSky. NeuroSky also makes those Necomimi cat ears that flop or prick up in tune with your mood swings. (Though the university group has been working on brainwave tracking for some time now, He said he was not familiar with the Puzzlebox technology until recently.) Last year a group from Zhejiang University in China, showed how they used the Emotiv headset to control a quadracopter and even made it compete with a remote-controlled machine.
The long-term goal is to refine the technology so an EEG headset will help guide the movement of prosthetic limbs.
In the past, EEG headsets have been used to move everything from wheelchairs to disembodied cockroach legs. But control is only half the story: after all, the brain's relationship with a limb is a two- way street. Other bioengineering groups are investigating how prosthetic appendages, moved by the brain or nerves, can be responsive, and send back a sense of touch.

Notorious Zeus banking Trojan is gaining speed on Facebook
Malware known as Zeus that can land on a user's computer and steal that user's bank account information is "remerging with a vengeance" and finding its way onto Facebook. One security firm believes Zeus' reemergence "peaked in May," but is still quite active.
An administrator of Facebook sports fan pages is so upset about it, he's made it his personal mission to try to get the social network to be more aggressive in dealing with Zeus, which has been a longtime threat to computer users, and in more recent years, to some smartphone users.
"Anybody can be anybody on Facebook, and that's what wrong with this; there needs to be a vetting process" of those who are allowed to sign up for the social network and post links to other websites, the administrator, Eric Feinberg told NBC News.
The average person, he says "doesn't know" how to look for such problem links, and he contends there are too many links on the site that are posted by criminals that can lead to downloads of Zeus, or to buying counterfeit goods.
Feinberg, a New York marketing professional, started a website, FAKE — (Fans Against Kounterfeit Enterprise) — to raise awareness of the issue.
Zeus installs itself on a user's computer then lurks, lying in wait. When a user logs on to a banking website, Zeus moves into action, capturing the bank account's username, password and routing information, and any other personal financial information it can locate.
"The notorious info-stealing ZeuS/ZBOT variants are reemerging with a vengeance, with increased activity and a different version of the malware seen this year," wrote Jay Yaneza of Trend Micro, on the security company's blog.
Yaneza said Zeus "surged in the beginning of February," and "peaked during the middle of May."
Feinberg, working with a security expert, Ian Malloy, and others in online "white hat" hacker groups, said they noticed that many of the Facebook links there were problems with had ".tk" extensions on them, signifying the websites' country code as Tokelau, a South Pacific territory, and a domain used by some Eastern European and Russian cybercriminals.
Frederic Wolens, of Facebook Policy Communications, told NBC News that users should always be "careful with suspicious links and always check the domain," saying that users should be aware that a link to a site like "www.Facebook.scarysite.tk is not Facebook," for example, and that they should not click on such links.
Zeus itself, Wolens said "can be found across the Internet, including on Facebook ... if Zeus is spreading using malicious links, these of course can crop up on Facebook." Users can also take advantage of the social network's Scan-and-Repair malware scan (and can learn more here).
Still, Zeus is pernicious, and Facebook is a natural destination because the network has so many users.
"Old threats like [Zeus] can always make a comeback because cybercriminals profit from these," Trend Micro's Yaneza wrote. "Peddling stolen banking and other personal information from users is a lucrative business in the underground market. Plus, these crooks can use your login credentials to initiate transactions in your account without your consent."
That's why it's important to both be careful in "opening email messages or clicking links," he said. "Bookmark trusted sites and avoid visiting unknown ones. Always keep your system up-to-date with the latest security releases from security vendors and install trusted anti-malware protection."
