Up to 20,000 Genetically Engineered Mosquitoes Released in Australian Towns
By Mike Barrett

Do you remember how some scientists, researchers, and individuals like Bill Gates were trying to release genetically modified mosquitoes into the environment?
Well, that endeavor isn’t quite over.
Two towns in Northern Australia have recently been gifted with 10-20 thousand genetically engineered mosquitoes – almost completely replacing mosquitoes naturally occurring in the outdoors.
Different Genetically Engineered Mosquitoes?
Although the mosquitoes released are still GM, they aren’t exactly the same as the more well-known mosquitoes developed my Oxitec. Oxitec is a British company responsible for the creation of the genetically engineered mosquitoes containing a gene designed to kill themselves unless given an antibiotic known as tetracycline.
The company created this internally manipulated insect to help control agricultural pests and reduce insect-borne diseases like dengue fever and malaria.
These new mosquitoes released in Australia, however, are developed with a slightly different strategy. A bacterium named Wolbackiapipientis infects numerous insects species, and harnesses the ability to alter it’s hosts reproductive ability.
When this happens, entire populations become infected within generations, and when the bacterium infects mosquitoes, the mosquitoes’ ability to pass on the dengue virus vanishes.
Needless to say, numerous scientists, researchers, and many individuals have expressed concern regarding the release of genetically engineered mosquitoes.
The first mosquito release by Oxitec took place in the Cayman Islands in the Caribbean in 2009, only for a second trial to occur in 2010, where 6,000 mosquitoes were released in Malaysia for further experiments.
Now, 10-20 thousand mosquitoes were released in Australia, drilling the environment with even more genetically modified creations. As mentioned, many people are not happy about this.
Some individuals, such as Daniel Strickman, point out the obvious discomfort surrounding the possibility that the bacterium could become out of control once released – in a way that does not naturally occur in nature.
In addition, mosquitoes less susceptible to dengue infection could in turn become more susceptible to other viruses.
Unfortunately, no peer-reviewed scientific proof of the safety of such biotechnologies can be offered. Long-term effects have not been at all measured, and once these insects are released, they can not be recalled.
Here are but a few of the questions and issues regarding GM mosquitoes (or any GM insect for that matter).
- Will Oxitec need to acquire the free and informed consent of residents in Key West for the release of the GM mosquitoes? With the previous release of the mosquitoes in the Cayman Islands there was no public consultation taken on potential risks and informed consent was not given from locals.
- What could happen to the ecosystem and local food chain with the major decrease in the Aedes aegypti mosquito population?
- Tetracycline, the antibiotic Oxitec’s genetically engineered mosquitoes are supposed to have no contact with, is showing up in the environment. With tetracycline being present in the wild, these GE mosquitoes would survive and thrive.
- Mosquitoes can develop resistance to the lethal gene inputted by Oxitec. In fact, 3.5 percent of the insects survived to adulthood in laboratory tests despite carrying the lethal gene, according to Todd Shelly, an entomologist for the Agriculture Department in Hawaii.
- 0.5 percent of the released insects are female (the gender which bites humans); what happens to humans if bitten by the female mosquitoes?
- Who regulates releases, and who will be responsible in the event of complications – to any degree?
The truth is that we have no idea what the future holds for genetic modification and the potential impacts it has on the environment and public health.
We know that the genetically engineered mosquitoes are equipped with a lethal gene designed to lower the mosquito population, but what does that really mean for humans?
We simply do not know the potential outcomes that could arise from such creations.

Lady Gaga’s new perfume created using blend of human blood, semen, and poisonous extract
by Jonathan Benson
Natural News
June 27, 2012
(NaturalNews) If you have ever doubted the truly satanic essence of the infamous Lady Gaga, then you need look no further than her new perfume, which is expected to debut this fall. According to the Boston Globe and various other sources, the new Gaga scent, known as “Fame,” was created using a sample of Gaga’s own blood, as well as semen from another unknown donor. The blend apparently also contains a highly-toxic plant extract that is known to kill humans.
It could all just be one big demonic publicity stunt to market the ugly black liquid packaged in an alien-like, egg-shaped bottle held by what appear to be slender claws. But several sources confirm that Gaga literally used her own DNA to create the scent, which included offering up a blood sample that was actually added to the fragrance batch. Where the alleged semen came from, though, is still unknown.
“It was taken out of my own blood sample, so it’s a sense of having me on your skin,” said Gaga in early 2011 about the perfume. “I wanted to extract sort of the feeling and sense of blood and semen from molecular structures …That is in the perfume, but it doesn’t smell like that. Actually, the perfume smells like an expensive hooker.”
Lady Gaga scent contains poisonous plant extract
The ingredient list printed on the fragrance bottle says it contains “Tears of Belladonna, crushed heart of tiger orchidea, with a black veil of incense, pulverized apricot, and, the combinative essences of saffron and honey drops.” Of particular concern here is “Tears of Belladonna,” which Starcasm.net reports is an extract of an extremely poisonous plant known as Belladonna, or “Deadly Nightshade.”
Deadly Nightshade has apparently been used throughout history as both an anesthetic and a poison. The berries produced by the plant appear safe and delicious, but just a few of them can kill a child — and a single leaf, in fact, is capable of killing a grown adult. Perhaps this is a metaphor for Gaga herself, as millions are drawn into her mysterious persona and musical style, only to be destroyed by the monster hiding within.
But in all seriousness, this extract, if truly present in Gaga’s perfume, is highly problematic for human health, not to mention the potential presence of blood and semen. Italian women used to apply extracts of Deadly Nightshade in their eyedrops to make their eyes dilate, a practice that has since been determined be very risky.
So between the toxic belladonna extract, the blood, and the semen, any rational person will clearly be able to see that avoiding Lady Gaga’s “Fame” scent like the plague is the only option here. Then again, these additives may not be any more toxic than the synthetic, petrochemical-based fragrance chemicals added to most other perfumes.

Invasive species from Fukushima tsunami washing up on U.S. shores
by J.D. Heyes
Natural News
June 23, 2012
(NaturalNews) Japan’s tsunami-caused nuclear disaster at the Fukushima energy complex in March 2011, in which three atomic reactors were heavily damaged, continues to wreak havoc on ecosystems – in the U.S.
The latest danger emanating from the Fukushima complex to hit our shores came not in the form of irradiated tuna, but in the form of a boxcar-sized piece of floating dock which washed ashore along a sandy Oregon beach earlier this month. The find initially excited some beachcombers, reports said, but scientists quickly began to worry that such debris was quickly becoming a whole new way to transport invasive species – crabs, seaweed and other marine organisms – to U.S. waters, further harming West Coast marine environments, The Associated Press reported.
Worse, scientists and marine biologists suspect more species could be hitching a ride to our shores as more tsunami debris arrives in the coming months.
“We know extinctions occur with invasions,” John Chapman, assistant professor of fisheries and invasive species at Oregon State University’s Hatfield Marine Science Center, told AP. “This is like arrows shot into the dark. Some of them could hit a mark.”
Mitten crabs, spartina, shellfish all cause problems here – though they came from far away
Indeed. While international trade has meant that marine invasion to the West Coast has been occurring since the late 1860s, the global economy has greatly accelerated the process. So much so that now, there are areas like San Francisco Bay which amount to a “global zoo” of invasive species, where as many as 500 plants and animals from waters afar have established in U.S. waters.
The species can attach themselves to the hulls of cargo ships and the water some vessels take on as ballast, but have also come from home aquariums that have been emptied into bays.
Not only have the species upset marine ecosystems, but there are staggering costs associated with the phenomenon as well, in tens of billions of dollars.
“Mitten crabs from China eat baby Dungeness crabs that are one of the region’s top commercial fisheries. Spartina, a ropey seaweed from Europe, chokes commercial oyster beds. Shellfish plug the cooling water intakes of power plants. Kelps and tiny shrimp-like creatures change the food web that fish, marine mammals and even humans depend on,” the AP reported.
If anything, the Fukushima disaster will only make matters worse, since the problem has been growing for years. A 2004 study published by the scientific journal Ecological Economic, for example, estimated then that some 400 threatened and endangered species in the U.S. were facing wipe-out due to invasive species.
That said, scientists admit it’s too early to tell how badly Japan’s tsunami debris will worsen the situation already here in the U.S.
“It may only introduce one thing,” Andrew Cohen, director of the Center for Research on Aquatic Bioinvasions in Richmond, Calif., said. “But if that thing turns out to be a big problem, we would rather it not happen. There could be an economic impact, an ecological impact, or even a human health impact.”
Johnny Clamseed
Reports said the dock that washed ashore in Oregon came from a fishing port located on Japan’s northern tip. It was strewn with a ton-and-a-half of mussels, seaweed, barnacles and starfish. AP reported that volunteers scraped it clean then buried it above the high water line and sterilized the rest with torches.
Some experts said, however, that despite the cleaning, there was no way to tell yet whether the scrap had released spores, larvae or anything else that could spawn and grow somewhere along the coast.
“That’s the ‘Johnny Clamseed’ approach,” James Carlton, professor of marine sciences at Williams College, said, a reference to John Chapman, better known as Johnny Appleseed, who introduced apple trees to parts of Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois and Indiana in the 19th century. “While that is theoretical, we don’t actually know if that kind of thing happens.”
Yet, scientists say they do know that the bigger the debris, the more likely it is bringing something along for the ride.
More debris continues to wash ashore along U.S. beaches – so much so that state officials are beginning to make appeals to Washington for help. This week, Washington state Gov. Chris Gregoire announced plans for her state to begin clean-up efforts but said federal help would be needed.
“We don’t have the resources at the state level to do what we’re going to have to do here,” she said.

6 Unnecessary Health Tests
by Elizabeth Renter
Natural Society
July 1, 2012
Typically, if you are interested in natural healing and preventative health, you aren’t the type to make an appointment with an M.D. for every little symptom. You probably aren’t asking your doctor for more health tests. But, other people are.
With so many medical information sites online, people are perhaps overly-informed when it comes to different diseases, conditions, and illnesses, contacting their doctor with fear in their voice, “I think I might have______. Can we run a test for that?”
Regardless of who you are or what your personal health philosophy is, it’s good to have some sense of what medical diagnostics are useful and which are totally unnecessary and overused. Here are five especially unnecessary health tests that you should know about.
- DEXA – This test is called dual energy X-ray absorptiometry and is used to detect bone strength and bone density, potentially providing people with a forewarning of their chances of developing osteoporosis. The problem with the test, however, is that measurements can say one thing one day and another the next. Also, two scans performed back to back on different machines will deliver different results. In other words, the results are unreliable. Also, it only measures bone mineral density, which isn’t the total picture when it comes to bone strength.
- Full Body CT Scans – One of many health tests full of radiation, you could pay several hundred or even a thousand bucks to have a CT scan, looking for any abnormalities. This one is a warning to those folks who just want to be on the safe side: don’t do it. Getting a full body CT scan is a little like paying a mechanic to take apart your engine to make sure nothing is wrong when your car is running smoothly. It’s unnecessary overkill. This unnecessary CT scan radiation has also been shown to triple brain tumor risk in children.
- PSA Testing – This is a blood test used to detect a protein produced by the prostate gland. High levels of this protein (prostate-specific antigen) can indicate prostate cancer. But, the association isn’t always right and the cancer isn’t always deadly. “The PSA test usually leads to overdiagnosis—biopsies and treatment in which the side effects are impotence and incontinence.”
- Home Menopause Testing – This test, which can be purchased at some drug stores, is said to tell a woman if she is going through her “life change.” But, like many other tests on this list, it’s unreliable. Particularly if you are using it to determine whether or not you still need birth control, it might be worth a visit to the doctor.
- Home Alzheimer’s Test – A scratch-and-sniff test for Alzheimer’s? Yes, really. Because a loss of smell has been associated with Alzheimer’s disease, this test says it can indicate the disease by testing your sniffer. Unfortunately, the link between smelling and Alzheimer’s is rare and is also indicative of other neurological conditions—or nothing more than “a smelling problem.”
- Breast Cancer Screenings – Among the most overused health tests, mammograms are unnecessarily pushed on women, only to cause harm. One study estimated that between 1,169 and 1,148 women of 2,500 tested were over-diagnosed and received unnecessary treatment. Even mainstream health officials are now admitting that breast cancer screening methods are not only ineffective, but are leading to improper diagnosis and unnecessary treatments at around 7,000 per year.

Kyodo: No. 4 Spent Fuel Pool’s Cooling System Stopped After Alarm Sounds
By ENENews
June 30, 2012
The cooling system for a spent fuel pool at the crippled Fukushima Daiichi power plant’s No. 4 reactor automatically suspended operation Saturday morning after an alarm issued a warning at around 6:25 a.m., Tokyo Electric Power Co. said.
The water temperature of the pool was 31 C at the time of the suspension, and leakage of water with radioactive materials has not been confirmed, TEPCO said, adding it is unlikely the temperature will rise rapidly.
