Musician. Entrepreneur. Philanthropist. Humanitarian. Damien Escobar bears many titles and puts no limits on what more he can achieve, making him one of the most prolific figures hailing from Jamaica, Queens. The Emmy-winning, NAACP Image Award nominee, possesses a nearly two-decade-spanning resume that includes billboard chart-topping albums, sold-out global tours, collaborations with music legends, and more — an inspirational success story that started with Escobar playing his violin on NYC subways. Proving his hustle, drive, passion and unquestionable talent, are the pillars that hold up his ever-expanding brand.
Damien Escobar, the artist, found success early on in the duo 'Nuttin' but Stringz' which he created with his brother Tourie in 2003. After the duo won a talent contest at the Apollo Theater, Damien went on to appear in the film Step Up. Nuttin but Stringz took third place in the 2008 season of America's Got Talent, and later performed at the First Inauguration of Barack Obama in 2009. The duo won two Emmy awards and eventually separated in 2012. Escobar launched his solo career by performing at a series of high profile events including Russell Simmons' Hip Hop Inaugural Ball, the Indy Car 2012 Championships Awards Banquet, and the Food & Wine Event in NYC. In 2013 he embarked on his first headlining tour, I Am Me, and released his solo album "Sensual Melodies" which debuted on the iTunes Top 100 chart. Following the album's release, Damien was featured on many national news outlets including the 'The Today Show' and was also invited to perform for Oprah's "The Life You Want" weekend tour. In 2017, Damien released his sophomore album "Boundless" to much critical acclaim.
Damien's entrepreneurial skills lead him to the worlds of writing, wine, design, and perfumery. In 2013 he penned and self-published an autobiographical children's book titled "The Sound of Strings." Soon after the book was released he began designing and building his own line of custom violins, all while establishing partnerships to develop wine and perfume lines. By 2019 he released his first signature fragrance, H2H, which sold out on the day of its release. Due to the overwhelming success of H2H, Damien launched the follow-up line Awaken, in 2020.
As a philanthropist and humanitarian, Damien founded the Violins Against Violence Foundation in 2007. He also continues to work with the VH1 Save the Music Foundation, UNICEF, and Kennedy's Cause, a charity that benefits children with lymphatic malformation. Escobar serves on the Board of Directors for the Jamaica YMCA, and oversees a series of artistically driven outreach programs for youth and young adults provided by The Glorial Gail Foundation.


They say you should never meet your heroes, but when one of them is Prince, it turns out that you probably shouldn't lend him your guitar either.
US audiences went crazy last week as they tuned in for Prince's appearance on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon, where 'The Purple One' performed new track 'Screwdriver' and 'Bambi' from his 1979 self-titled album.
Prince wowed crowds at the end of 'Bambi' by hurling his guitar to the ground. All well and good, except the 1961 Epiphone actually belongs to Captain Kirk Douglas, guitarist for legendary Philadelphia live hip-hop crew - and Jimmy Fallon house band - The Roots.
Taking to Twitter, Douglas posted a picture of the broken guitar caption "Purple pain.", while noting "Maybe it's because I'm a dad but I think framing the guitar is a little like rewarding bad behaviour."
Douglas went on to explain that, ironically, the only reason the guitar was at the studio that night is because he was rehearsing for a Prince tribute gig taking place at Carnegie Hall.
You can watch the video at the Late Night With Jimmy Fallon website, and meanwhile we'd like to wish Captain Kirk's Epiphone a speedy recovery.

Nine years after the 1994 genocide, which killed about 800,000 people, Rwanda ended its transitional ruling period with a constitutional referendum, followed by the first presidential and multiparty parliamentary elections in the country since its independence in 1962. The transitional government's control of the broadcast media and its repressive tactics against the independent press helped it consolidate power in all three polls. Nevertheless, the new constitution upholds the principle of press freedom, and a new media law allows for the introduction of private radio and television stations.
President Paul Kagame--an ethnic Tutsi and former military commander who has, in effect, ruled Rwanda since 1994, when his rebel army fought its way to power and ended the genocide--was re-elected with a staggering 95 percent of the vote. His main challenger, Faustin Twagiramungu, a moderate Hutu and former prime minister, garnered only 3.6 percent. Despite "numerous irregularities" in the election, European Union (EU) observers described the poll as a "positive step" toward democracy in Rwanda.
A directive from Rwanda's Supreme Press Council mandating that all candidates receive equal treatment in broadcast and print media was well respected in slots officially allotted for election coverage, according to the EU observers. But during other news, both "the written press and the broadcast media treated the candidates unequally," reserving more positive coverage for Kagame, said EU observers.
Rwanda remains haunted by the role that some media played in the 1994 genocide, notably Radio-Télévision Libre des Mille Collines (RTLM), which helped promote the massacres. On December 3, 2003, the U.N. International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda in Arusha, Tanzania, gave long prison sentences to three Rwandan media executives for genocide, incitement to genocide, conspiracy to commit genocide, and crimes against humanity. Ferdinand Nahimana, founder and board member of RTLM, and Hassan Ngeze, former editor of Kangura newspaper, both received the maximum sentence of life imprisonment. The court said that life imprisonment would also have been the appropriate punishment for Jean-Bosco Barayagwiza, an RTLM board member and former leader of a Hutu extremist political party, but it was bound by a previous ruling that his sentence should be reduced if he was convicted, because his rights had been violated while in detention. The court therefore reduced Barayagwiza's sentence to 35 years, eight of which he had already served.
Defense lawyers argued that the verdict was a serious attack on press freedom. However, most experts agree that speech intended to provoke imminent lawless violence and that is likely to do so is not protected in courts anywhere in the world. RTLM radio, for example, was used to direct gangs of killers to specific Tutsi targets. The risk remains, however, that governments--including Rwanda's--could use this verdict as a further excuse to clamp down on legitimate criticism in the press.
State TV and radio maintain a broadcast monopoly in Rwanda. The influence of the written press is limited mainly to the capital, Kigali, due to a lack of finances, poor infrastructure for distribution, and widespread illiteracy. Radio remains the most effective way to reach the population nationwide. But the government has used the example of RTLM to argue against private radio stations, claiming that they could incite ethnic division and violence. However, foreign radio services such as the BBC, Radio France Internationale, Voice of America (VOA), and Deutsche Welle broadcast in the country. The BBC and VOA carry programs in the local language, Kinyarwanda, as well as in French and English.
Private publications that have tackled sensitive subjects, such as the war in neighboring Congo, government corruption, or election irregularities, continued to face harassment in 2003. Ismail Mbonigaba, former editor of the Kinyarwanda-language newspaper Umuseso, which is seen as the only independent voice in the Rwandan media, was arrested and imprisoned for more than a month on charges of "inciting division and discrimination." The charges came after an article in the paper reported that Twagiramungu would run against Kagame in the August elections. Mbonigaba was released in late February and subsequently launched a new journal called Indorerwamo (The Mirror), whose first edition was seized in April. Police claimed that the publication had not obtained proper authorization, but local journalists believe that this was a pretext for censorship.
In November, police detained six Umuseso staff members, including news editor Robert Sebufirira, and confiscated copies of the newspaper, which officials accused of "inciting sectarian behavior." The action stemmed from an article that questioned why certain senior military officers were being removed from duty, and why taxpayers' money had been spent to train one of these officers abroad. The journalists were released without charge two days later but told CPJ they could not resume publishing Umuseso because revenue lost from the confiscation had compounded the paper's financial problems.
Internews, a U.S.-based nongovernmental media organization that conducts civic education in Rwanda on genocide-related justice issues, received authorization from Rwandan authorities to present films about the elections but was never able to distribute them. According to the organization, two films had been produced with the support of a US$250,000 grant from the U.S. Agency for International Development, but Rwandan authorities stalled on giving Internews permission to distribute the films until after the elections. The first film presented portraits of the four initial presidential candidates (one subsequently withdrew and supported Kagame), with the same questions posed to each. The second film included interviews with a range of parliamentary candidates on problems facing the country.
In March 2003, the Supreme Press Council was created in accordance with a media law passed in July 2002. The council has nine members, with three elected by the private press, one from the state media, two from civil-society groups, and three appointed by the government. Council head Privat Rutazibwa, editor of the pro-government Rwanda News Agency, told CPJ that seven authorization requests had been submitted for private radio stations, but that the requests were still being processed at press time. Some local observers expressed concerns that authorities might be deliberately stalling, adding to fears that the council may not be genuinely independent.

Home Police Protest Erupts Over Acquittal of Police Who Shot and Killed Philando Castile
Protest Erupts Over Acquittal of Police Who Shot and Killed Philando Castile
Amando Flavio
On July 6, 2016, a black man named Philando Castile was fatally shot by a reckless police officer, Jeronimo Yanez, in the city of St. Anthony, Minnesota.
Castile, a 32-year-old school cafeteria worker, was driving with his girlfriend Diamond Reynolds and their 4-year-old daughter, when Yanez pulled them over.
According to Minnesota Public Radio, just 74 seconds after Yanez activated his squad lights he fired the last of seven shots into the car of Yanez, killing him in the presence of his girlfriend and daughter.
In November, Yanez was charged with one count of felony second-degree manslaughter in Castile's death. Prosecutors later added two felony counts of intentional discharge of a dangerous weapon to endanger Castile's girlfriend and their daughter. Yanez pleaded not guilty to all charges.
A jury was constituted to hear and determine the fate of Yanez. The jury sat five times, and on Friday June 16, declared that Yanez is not guilty of any charges leveled against him.
After the ruling was announced, many people in the city expressed their dissatisfaction. People started calling for street protests, and by the evening the city came to a standstill. Many people were on the street protesting over the ruling.

Hundreds of protesters gathered at the Minnesota State Capitol holding signs that included the phrases "black lives matter," and "no justice, no peace." Some marched toward the Saint Paul Cathedral to register their displeasure about the ruling with the church.
The protest continued deep into the night. Some of the protesters furiously stormed highway Interstate 94 and blocked traffic for more than an hour. The state patrol even threatened to arrest protesters occupying the road.
"The system continues to fail black people, and it will continue to fail you all," Valerie Castile, Philando's mother, told reporters after the verdict. "My son loved this city and this city killed my son and the murderer gets away. … I'm mad as hell right now."
Castile's sister Allysza, weeping, said, "He didn't deserve to die the way he did, and I will never have faith in this system." Castile's family lawyer, Glenda Hatchett said they would appeal the ruling.

There were similar protests across the city when the appalling shooting happened in 2016. Minnesota Gov. Mark Dayton described the incident and its aftermath as "absolutely appalling at all levels."
Many people across the U.S. became appalled by the shooting after Castile's girlfriend live-streamed the immediate aftermath of the incident on Facebook, showing her boyfriend dying.
During the trial, the jurors requested for Reynolds' video, as well as dashcam video from Yanez's patrol vehicle. Commentators have said those videos were crucial pieces of evidence, showing that Yanez acted recklessly and unprofessional after he stopped Castile.
Between 2015 and 2016, policing in the U.S. came under close public scrutiny. Some officers unleashed pure terror on the very people they are supposed to protect. The disgusting actions of these officers led to the loss of many innocent lives, mostly black people. This led to the formation of the Black Lives Matter movement across the U.S.

This work presents the results of an exploratory study on adolescents' sexual and relational-emotional knowledge, sources of information, and behaviors. The study also investigates adolescents' risky experiences in both real and vir-tual life. The sample consists of 1522 adolescents of Italian nationality with age range between 12 and 18 years (44% males and 56% females), who completed an on-line self-report questionnaire. Results show that, contrary to their percep-tion, adolescents' knowledge about sexuality and emotionality is rather scarce. They refer primarily to parents, friends, and, to a considerable extent, to the In-ternet to get information about sexuality. In addition, the percentage of sexual-ly active adolescents who report to enact risky behaviors, especially among the youngest (12-14 years), is noteworthy. Finally, a consistent percentage of ado-lescents report to receive or send "sensual" photos through the Internet and to receive requests to provide personal material/information by strangers.

Brendan Benson, Audio Lunchbox, Fiona Apple
Tangled Web: A weekly column featuring intriguing online music-related issues & destinations. This Week: Brendan Benson, Audio Lunchbox and Fiona Apple
HOLIDAY SONG GIFTS FROM V2: V2 Records is celebrating Festivus season with free MP3s from a couple of its artists.
Brendan Benson, whose third album, "The Alternative to Love," is due out in March, offers a free download of that album's penultimate track "What I'm Looking For," at the V2 site.
Veteran singer/songwriter and labelmate Rickie Lee Jones has posted three free downloads of her takes on Christmas songs -- "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen," "Have a Merry Christmas" and "O Holy Night" -- at her official Web site. Visitors/fans should peek around for more free download goodness at Jones' online home.
GOBBLING UP THE LUNCHBOX: Indie-music digital clearinghouse Audio Lunchbox, previously profiled in these pages, has been bought out by competitor NetMusic Entertainment, significantly increasing the latter's breadth as an online music store.
The merged NetMusic claims a catalog of more than 1 million tracks drawn from more than 4,000 labels worldwide. In January, the company plans to relaunch its site with a new design based on the Audio Lunchbox site. The latter site will also continue to operate as a division of NetMusic.com.
AN APPLE WITH NO SEASON: The brainchild of a handful of web-savvy Fiona Apple fans, FreeFiona.com is a site dedicated to campaigning to get the artist's third album, "Extraordinary Machine," released by Sony BMG.
According to the site, Apple finished "Machine" in May 2003 and turned it into her label, which had released her first two albums, "Tidal" and "When the Pawn..." Sony has not yet set a release date for the set, a fact the site's creators blame on the major label's management for deigning the release "too uncommercial." The organizers are planning a protest week during the last week of January.


Thank you to peer-reviewers Dr. Nicholas Shaheen, Dr. David Katzka, and Dr. Joe Kingsbery.
Pearl 1: What is Barrett's esophagus?
Barrett's esophagus is metaplasia of the normal squamous epithelium of the esophagus to columnar epithelium.
Estimated prevalence of Barrett's in the general population is 5%, and the majority have do not have dysplasia, but if there is high grade dysplasia, there is a 7% annual risk of developing adenocarcinoma, which is what we ultimately want to prevent.
Pearl 2: Who do we screen for Barrett's, and why?
According to the American College of Gastroenterology (ACG), we should screen men who have chronic GERD and have at least two risk factors: Caucasian race, age over 50 years, any smoking history, central obesity, or a 1⁰ relative with barrett's or esophageal adenocarcinoma.
Pearl 3: How do we screen for Barrett's and counsel if they do have Barrett's?
Screening is done with an upper endoscopy (EGD) with 8 biopsies and is specially reviewed by expert pathologists.
Pearl 4: How do we treat and monitor Barrett's esophagus?
Patients with Barrett's esophagus should be on a once daily PPI because of its chemoprotective nature, even in the absence of GERD symptoms.
Patients with nondysplastic Barrett's should be reassured that there is low rate of progression, and should have repeat EGD every 3-5 years for surveillance.
If there is low grade dysplasia, the patient can choice between surveillance with more frequent EGDs or radiofrequency ablation.
If there is high grade dysplasia, first-line treatment is radiofrequency ablation followed by routine surveillance.
The delta, or change in between the two values of troponin, can help guide suspicion for ACS in less clear cases.

The Juicer is a very special overdrive pedal. Modeled after the DOD FX51 Juice Box (my fav OD for years) it's designed to give a very transparent and sustaining quality to your tone. It'll add some boost and life to a crunchy amp by hitting the front end with some added "juice" (gain). You'll notice that it's surprisingly quiet in use and makes playing leads a bit more effortless while imparting a singing quality to them. Use it before another overdrive/distortion pedal or a raging stack. It's subtle, but powerful! Enjoy!

Art Therapy @ Ren Ci
Art Therapy is a form of psychotherapy that uses visual arts as its primary mode of expression. Through Art Therapy, individuals are supported in their creative process, within a therapeutic relationship, to improve their psychosocial and socio-emotional well-being.
Art Therapy is facilitated by Art Therapists who have undergone post-graduate training in Art Therapy.
This therapeutic modality was formally introduced to Ren Ci in 2017 with the aim of providing a source of joy to Elders under our care. Our Art Therapists would engage the Elders across our facilities with different art forms while addressing their needs and reaping the benefits of creating art. The benefits include: The facilitation of self-expression, emotional regulation, promoting insights, resolving inner conflicts, fostering emotional and psychological resilience, establishing a positive sense of self and self-identity, enabling individuals to find empowerment, positive development and meaning making of life's experiences. Other benefits include improvement in motor skills & coordination, and cognitive function, such as stimulation of memories, and being able to share their memories through speech. Opportunities for social connections are enhanced, resulting in improved mood and mental health. Art Therapists have also worked with staff and caregivers to address caregiver stress, and facilitate self-care programmes to support their emotional, creative and spiritual growth.
In Ren Ci, Art Therapy is provided individually and within group settings, depending on suitability and the intervention objectives. The Art Therapy: Memories in the Making group programme for Persons with dementia and the Art Therapy Open Studio are two unique Art Therapy group programmes in Ren Ci. The artworks show glimpses of their creative abilities amid their diverse interests, approaches and personal narratives. These artistic expressions are a testament of how one may still rekindle old talents or find new ones while creatively celebrating one's lived and still unfolding life
The Art Circle (2020)
The Art Circle celebrates the works of 15 members from diverse backgrounds, who have come together in 2019 to create different art forms. Members engaged with the Art Therapists and art process to express their hidden emotional issues that may otherwise have remained unexpressed. Through the therapeutic creative art process, they were supported to build on their achievements, validate their successes in life, and leave a form of legacy to those significant to them.
The Happy Show (2019)
Jointly titled by members of the Art Therapy: Memories in the Making group programme, The Happy Show features the artworks of members from the Art Therapy Open Studio as well as the Art Therapy: Memories in the Making group programme. At the heart of the art show were our exhibiting residents who shared the stories behind their artworks and recounted what they had creatively expressed in their images at the moment of creation. The artworks spoke of the universal themes of struggle, loss, hope, faith, love, joy and happiness.

December 21st is believed to be the shortest day of the year and many pagan and Christian festivals take place leading up to and around this time. From the days of the ancient Roman Saturnalia, to the modern Christian Christmas and the Jewish celebration of Hanukkah meaning festival of Lights, it appears that most of these celebrations represent the bringing of light and cheer into the darkest days of the year. While most remain true to their original reason, others have adapted traditions which precede the religious aspect.
Surprisingly you will find a lot of the celebrations we do today with regards to Christmas, like decorating trees, exchanging gifts, good food parties and even Mistletoe were done in Saturnalia in Ancient Rome. The light that we all use no matter if it is a candle, tree lights and many other things, seems to harken back to ancient times when those less in tune must have feared the sun was gone forever. So in order to re awaken the sun, ceremonies would take place at this time. When they found that the days then began to grow in length after this celebration, they must have thought the Gods were pleased enough to repeat the ceremony every year.
Throughout the world, this time appears to have some sacred standing in many religions. As one belief took over form another, customs were adopted from the previous into the new. Even our cheery Santa Clause method of travel is believed to have stemmed from none other than the great Odin himself, who was said to fly over the land delivering presents to those who deserved them. The original yule or yuletide was a religious festival celebrated by the historical Germanic people. It was a pre-Christian celebration which, like so many other pre-Christian celebrations, got absorbed into the Christmas celebrations we know today.
In Nordic countries, the term Yule is still used in relation to the Christmas celebration, the Yule log, Yule boar and Yule singing have all stemmed from the pre-Christian celebration. Many pagan people have added their own additions into this celebration to suit their own beliefs. The yule celebrations last for twelve days, as do the Christmas celebrations. Yule is said to have derived from the old English word Geol of geohol indicating the 12 day festival. The original pre-Christian celebration is thought to have lasted around two months somewhere between November and January while the Old Norse month Ylir is similarly attested.
It is said that King Hakon the first of Norway arrived there already a confirmed Christian. Norway at the time was still heathen and the people maintained their pagan practices. Hakon was not about to let the people know of his Christianity until he had gained favour with the chieftains. Hakan's plan was that once he was firmly established he would have the gospel read across the land and so convert the people of Norway to Christianity. He spent most of his time in Trondheim and when the time was right he summoned bishops and priests from England to come and spread the word. The yule celebrations would have had to be absorbed into Christianity, to encourage its uptake. Such an important event would not easily have been stopped.
In the ancient Yule celebrations, sacrifices were made, farmers were called to the Heathen temple and were to bring all the food they would need while the feast lasted. All were expected to drink Ale and sacrifice livestock, the pedestals of the Idols were to be smeared with the blood of the sacrificial animals and a fire was lit with a kettle hung over it in the middle of the temple floor. The sacrificial beaker containing the blood of the animals was handed around the fire and the Chieftain would bless the beaker and all the sacrificial meat.
The month has also been connected to the wild hunt, a ghostly procession across the dark wintery skies where Odin would be leading the hunt. In this hunt Oden carries the name of Jolnir as mentioned above. The name is still mentioned in the Christmas celebrations and it would seem that across the ages in all cultures, this was a time of festivities and worship, just as it is today.

Medical weapons and fake data sets; how destruction multiplies

The mainstream reports I'm including in this article—I've written about them before. They form a grotesque track record of medical-cartel harm inflicted on the population.
I give you these reports again to point out how fake data sets multiply and spread, causing even more destruction.
For example—let's consider a drug called X. In fact, it is killing patients. However, studies of X published in leading medical journals report glowing results.
Those studies are then cited by researchers who publish more positive material on the drug.
Doctors, reading all these studies, continue to prescribe the killer X to their patients.
Pharmaceutical companies, seeing the profit picture of X, formulate their own versions of the drug, and market them—multiplying the killer effects throughout the population.
In the burgeoning field of AI medicine, which is increasingly used to automatically diagnose symptoms and prescribe drugs, X takes its place in MANY data sets as a powerful and safe remedy.
Medical schools, internship and residence programs blindly follow suit, using X and its knockoffs in standard treatment protocols.
Insurance companies, in their data sets, favor X and its cousins and cover claims based on the prescription of these drugs.
In every venue, data sets that mention killer X laud it as a useful tool in treating patients.
The fraud is deeply embedded, and the murders expand.
It's an example of the old adage, "Garbage in, garbage out," except in the field of medicine it's, "Killing in, killing out."
All right, here we go. MEDICAL WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION:
ONE: "The Epidemic of Sickness and Death from Prescription Drugs." The author is Donald Light, who teaches at Rowan University, and was the 2013 recipient of ASA's [American Sociological Association's] Distinguished Career Award for the Practice of Sociology. Light is a founding fellow of the Center for Bioethics at the University of Pennsylvania. In 2013, he was a fellow at the Edmond J. Safra Center for Ethics at Harvard. He is a Lokey Visiting Professor at Stanford University.
Donald Light: "Epidemiologically, appropriately prescribed, prescription drugs are the fourth leading cause of death, tied with stroke at about 2,460 deaths each week in the United States. About 330,000 patients die each year from prescription drugs in the United States and Europe. They [the drugs] cause an epidemic of about 20 times more hospitalizations [6.6 million annually], as well as falls, road accidents, and [annually] about 80 million medically minor problems such as pains, discomforts, and dysfunctions that hobble productivity or the ability to care for others. Deaths and adverse effects from overmedication, errors, and self-medication would increase these figures." (ASA publication, "Footnotes," November 2014)
TWO: Journal of the American Medical Association, April 15, 1998: "Incidence of Adverse Drug Reactions in Hospitalized Patients."
The authors, led by Jason Lazarou, culled 39 previous studies on patients in hospitals. These patients, who received drugs in hospitals, or were admitted to hospitals because they were suffering from the drugs doctors had given them, met the following fate:
Every year, in the US, between 76,000 and 137,000 hospitalized patients die as a direct result of the drugs.
Beyond that, every year 2.2 million hospitalized patients experience serious adverse reactions to the drugs.
The authors write: "…Our study on ADRs [Adverse Drug Reactions], which excludes medication errors, had a different objective: to show that there are a large number of ADRs even when the drugs are properly prescribed and administered."
So this study had nothing to do with doctor errors, nurse errors, or improper combining of drugs. And it only counted people killed or maimed who were admitted to hospitals. It didn't begin to tally all the people taking pharmaceuticals who died as consequence of the drugs, at home.
THREE: July 26, 2000, Journal of the American Medical Association; author, Dr. Barbara Starfield, revered public health expert at the Johns Hopkins School of Public Health; "Is US health really the best in the world?"
Starfield reported that the US medical system kills 225,000 Americans per year. 106,000 as a result of FDA-approved medical drugs, and 119,000 as a result of mistreatment and errors in hospitals. Extrapolate the numbers to a decade: that's 2.25 million deaths. You might want to read that last number again.
I interviewed Starfield in 2009. I asked her whether she was aware of any overall effort by the US government to eliminate this holocaust. She answered a resounding NO. She also said her estimate of medically caused deaths in America was on the conservative side.
FOUR: BMJ June 7, 2012 (BMJ 2012:344:e3989). Author, Jeanne Lenzer. Lenzer refers to a report by the Institute for Safe Medication Practices: "It [the Institute] calculated that in 2011 prescription drugs were associated with two to four million people in the US experiencing 'serious, disabling, or fatal injuries, including 128,000 deaths.'"
The report called this "one of the most significant perils to humans resulting from human activity."
The report was compiled by outside researchers who went into the FDA's own database of "serious adverse [medical-drug] events."
Therefore, to say the FDA isn't aware of this finding would be absurd. The FDA knows. The FDA knows and it isn't saying anything about it, because the FDA certifies, as safe and effective, all the medical drugs that are routinely maiming and killing Americans. Every public health agency knows the truth.
FIVE: None of the above reports factor in death or injury by vaccine.
Medical crimes.
Medically caused deaths of friends, family members, loved ones, who are buried along with the truth.
No criminal investigations, no prosecutions, no guilty verdicts, no prison sentences.
But of course, you can believe everything leading lights of the US medical system tell you about COVID.
You can believe everything the press—who buries the truth about this medical holocaust—tells you about COVID.
Given the reports on medically caused death and maiming I've just cited and described in this article, it's obvious that…
Leading medical journals around the world, which routinely publish glowing accounts of clinical trials of medical drugs…
Are spilling over with rank fraud, on page after page.
Indeed, here is a stunning quote from an editor who has quite probably read and analyzed more medical-drug studies than any doctor in the world:
"It is simply no longer possible to believe much of the clinical research that is published, or to rely on the judgment of trusted physicians or authoritative medical guidelines. I take no pleasure in this conclusion, which I reached slowly and reluctantly over my two decades as an editor of The New England Journal of Medicine." (Dr. Marcia Angell, NY Review of Books, January 15, 2009, "Drug Companies & Doctors: A Story of Corruption")
Compare that quote with one from "the father of COVID science," Tony Fauci. In an interview with the National Geographic, Fauci stated: "Anybody can claim to be an expert even when they have no idea what they're talking about…If something is published in places like New England Journal of Medicine, Science, Nature, Cell, or JAMA—you know, generally that is quite well peer-reviewed because the editors and the editorial staff of those journals really take things very seriously."
They take things so seriously, they routinely publish glowing studies of medical drugs that are killing people in great numbers.

The next chapter of Lina's life begins in Skellefteå /
Moving to Skellefteå
The next chapter of
Lina's life begins in Skellefteå
After 16 years, Lina Öberg has moved from the suburbs of Stockholm to a house in Sunnanå, Skellefteå. She and her husband Nils Bränström found similar jobs to the ones they had in Stockholm.
"It feels like a brand new Skellefteå compared to the one we left." If this development had not taken place, she is not so sure that they would have been moving back home.
Around the Christmas holidays, the Öberg/Bränström family headed back north. It was time for a new start to their family life, in a new neighborhood but a familiar city.
Or perhaps not so familiar after all.
"We have been going up at least once per year to see family and relatives, but once you live elsewhere, all the changes become very clear. In many ways, it feels like a brand new city! The center has expanded towards the river and new districts and restaurants have been added, so it's been a fresh start in Skellefteå," says Lina.
Nils is from Sjungande Dalen and Lina from Bergsbyn. But their choice of moving to Sunnanå and the south side of the river was not a complete coincidence.
"Many of our old friends live here, so it seemed only natural to monitor the housing market and make our way here," she says.
For those who drive around the neighborhood, it is obvious that they found the right place for their six-year-old son Folke. There are swings and sandboxes everywhere, and the driveways are full of scooters and bicycles. In other words, this is a family-friendly place.
"We have the luxury of having one of my best friends living two houses down, so we haven't had to look for a bunch of new friends to hang out with. But we were aware that we would need to make an effort and be open to meeting people. In Stockholm, we had friends on the other side of town, and we saw them much less, so from that perspective, we have gained a lot socially. Over there, everything was much more of a hassle, even if you were just seeing friends," says Lina.
Quickly found a job
Ever since Folke was born, Lina and Nils have felt that they needed to be "settled" before he starts school.
"Where that would happen, we didn't know yet. We weren't sure if it meant staying in Stockholm or moving. But after last Christmas, we started to land in the idea of moving back to Skellefteå, since we are both from here. But there was also the question of jobs of course, which felt like an important factor," says Lina
Nils started checking the job market and was soon offered a job as a construction consultant at WSP. A little later, Lina was offered a position as digital designer at Once Upon, which is a service that helps you to design photo albums using your own phone.
"I didn't really know anything about Once Upon, but a friend recommended me to apply. I was pleasantly surprised by the opportunity of continuing to work inhouse with digital design of a product and with a really great group of people. In terms of business, there are so many popping up these days that I had no idea existed before. In general, this is a brand new Skellefteå that I am getting to know. It makes a difference that I was 22 when I left and I will be 38 this summer, so I see things differently, but I don't know how we would have felt about it if Skellefteå was the same city as 17 years ago. I don't thing we would be moving back then," she says.
Another pulse
In the summer of 2003, she started a journey that ended up being much longer than she originally intended. She started a three-year program in information design in Eskilstuna. After finishing, she moved to Stockholm with a friend and started working at an ad agency – then she went through various jobs before getting a foot in the door at Hennes & Mauritz as a consultant graphic designer. In the last 2.5 years in Stockholm, she was working for Polarn o Pyret.
"I am incredibly grateful to have had the opportunity to work at that type of company. One thing that I am taking with me is that they function like any other company. There really isn't much of a difference, except a larger customer base and market to reach, but here at Once Upon, we are working towards more markets," says Lina
Now that she has changed the hectic city life of Stockholm for the slower tempo of Skellefteå, she sometimes misses the big city life.
"After so many years, you get used to a certain selection and a high tempo, it's the good with the bad. It's less stressful here, and we don't have to be the first to arrive at the pool to avoid the crowds when we go swimming. We feel that the pros outweigh the cons – and we have real winters again, that's maybe the biggest gain," says Lina.
But before then, the family will spend their first summer back in Sunnanå.
"Our son will have a different relationship with our families and his cousins, uncles, aunts and grandparents, and we are all looking forward to that."

Yesterday 23 September was an anniversary of the end of the Yoruba civil wars which snowball effect started sometime in the mid 1700s. These wars are important to Yorubas everywhere, including the diaspora because they were the catalyst for many ancestors being ripped away from the homeland in slavery . Due to violent unrests from the mid to late 1700s when the Oyo Empire became shaky right up to the late 1800s many years after Trans Atlantic Slavery was meant to have ended, so much so it became possible to photograph some of the fighters.
September 1893 marked the end of what could have made the beautiful Yoruba Homeland go the way of well advanced, but extinct civilizations like the Aztecs', Mankurians', and a host of others in a bloody implosion. Death came knocking on every door across the land. To the heart of the Middle East, to North Africa, to Brazil, to the Caribbeans and the Americas, the sons and daughters of the Kaaroojiire lands were scattered by the effects of the World's longest civil war!
The Yoruba homeland was caught in the crossfire of the Islamist and European imperialist ambitions. Like a cancer, some of Oyo citizens who had become Moslems turned on their own homeland, carrying out slave raids alongside their Fulbe friends.
After much resistance, the Old Oyo, capital of the Yorubas, caved in setting in motion mass displacement and migrations away from the old capital. These migrations helped Ibadan enjoy a swell in population, for many Oyo warlords resided in that city.
Ibadan coalesced into a strong republic which tried to forcefully unite the Yorubas under her against all odds, the Ibadan method at doing this created a lot of disaffections, the Ibadan tax collectors were mean and corrupt, this suffering brought the affected together under the same umbrella called the Ekiti Parapo coalition which was promptly joined by the Ijeshas and all the Ekitis.
The Fulanis in Ilorin capitalised on this chasm to try to get rid of the biggest threat to their quest of dominating the whole of Yoruba Land from Jebba to the Atlantic! Ilorin joined the war on the Ekitiparapo side, the Egbas and Ijebus also stood up in the South, Ife, which is the spiritual capital also stood up against the formidable behemoth of the Yorubas, what followed was almost two decades of bloodshed on the road to a mutually assured destruction!
The war raged on for sixteen whole years, the longest civil war ever fought among men! the seas were filled with vessels conveying the unfortunate to their place of sickening servitude, the desert filled with caravans taking men to their places of emasculation, those who remained on the homeland remained in fear and scarcity.
Countless efforts went into resolving the debacle hanging over the existence of the Yoruba civilization, so great was the carnage that even the Sultan of Gwandu sent an emissary to the Camp of the Fulanis of Ilorin and the camp of the Ibadans in a bid to end the strife, no sooner had they left did hostilities resume. The Apena of Eko (now called Lagos) also came to the hinterland to help stop the war among the sister states to no avail.
But Alas! this failed to work too as there was an irreconcilable disagreement on who to leave the battlefield first, thus, the war raged on! Then the Alaafin began to look to the British to salvage what was left of the homeland. Letters were sent to the British to help end the war as the Portuguese backed Dahomey army was also on a murderous march towards the capital in new Oyo, and have gotten to Iseyin!
The capital was left virtually defenseless as the Ibadans had their hands full fighting the Fulanis, the Ekitiparapo, the Ife, the Egbas and the Ijebus, formidably and flinching from none!
The British involvement helped hasten the disarmament process of the belligerents, the disagreement on who to leave the battlefield first reared its head again but was surmounted after much consultation, threat of force, and appeals.
On the 23rd of September, the former belligerents gathered on the battle grounds to plant trees to commemorate the narrow escape from self extermination and the continuous peaceful togetherness among the Kaaroojiire people, the tree selected for this commemoration was the Phoenix Peregun tree which blossoms afresh every new year. Thus ended what could have ended the Yoruba race!

"We did everything we could as a family to get answers. My mom's MS progressed quickly. Not only was walking difficult, but a whole suite of new symptoms appeared. I was terrified."
Written by guest contributor, Cheryl Hickey, host, Entertainment Tonight
I feel like I don't have the right to be mad but I am pissed.
I just got off the phone with my mom, who finished the call with, "Night, night. See you in the morning, surely will. Dubbers, dubbers, k, k." It may sound odd to the outside world, but we've been saying this to each other since I could talk. They are words that calm us both. But tonight our call was about her pain and frustration.
It's been almost four weeks since she lost most of the feeling in her left leg. The bottom half of her core is numb, and the pain is moving into her right leg. This agonizing pain owns her every movement. We've been waiting for an MRI for months, and we're not sure when we'll get one.
My mom doesn't have a family doctor; she can't secure one where she lives. When she's examined at a family teaching unit, it's by a dozen resident doctors. They've just diagnosed her with a back issue. In their words, "It's not an emergency, so just hold on."
My mom is — was — the most energetic, goofy, fun-loving lady you'd ever meet. She would jump in the lake at night, just because she could. On cold, snowy evenings in Owen Sound, ON, she would dress up in a full one-piece snowsuit and dance. Name any sport, summer or winter, and she was fully participating alongside us. And on long road trips, nothing broke up the silence like her car dance moves, which still make me smile when I remember them.
In her early 40s, my mom started getting a lot of headaches. She had dental work because it was thought to be needed when it wasn't. Medication after medication was prescribed for the headaches. The other symptoms — the back pain, the throbbing jaw — were thought to be just in her head. The dentist pulled teeth to try to fix the problem. Surprise, surprise — the pain remained, but the teeth didn't.
Being young at the time, I didn't think much of it — but knowing what I know now, she was amazing at hiding the really bad days. She eventually gave up trying to get answers about the cause of the strange tingling, unsteady walking and slippery hands. That is, until my wedding shower in August 2008.
It was the most amazing day. My mom, sister and friends had planned an incredible shower. The day went off without a hitch, until the drive home. My mom said her baby toe was numb and in pain. During the 60-minute drive, the pain worsened and travelled up her leg. My family's life changed in an instant.

The Latest: Video shows Holmes saying he regrets attack
PUBLISHED: May 28, 2015 at 1:42 p.m. | UPDATED: September 1, 2017 at 1:27 a.m.
6 p.m. MDT
The Colorado theater shooting trial has ended for the day after prosecutors played a videotaped interview in which James Holmes describes his parents' reaction to the deadly attack.
In the wide-ranging interview with state-appointed psychiatrist Dr. William Reid, Holmes says the July 20, 2012, shooting that left 12 people dead and 70 injured "negatively" affected his parents and "they were troubled by it."
When asked how he would have reacted if he was a parent of a person who carried out such an attack, Holmes responds, "I would have wanted to help them as soon as possible. … I'd be sad as well."
The interview is the first of nine conducted by Reid, beginning about two years after the shooting.
A video recorded about two years after the Colorado theater shooting shows James Holmes telling a state-appointed psychiatrist he regrets the deadly attack and sometimes cries about it.
The videotaped interview with Dr. William Reid was played for jurors at Holmes' trial Thursday.
It shows Reid asking Holmes if he teared up when his parents visited him in jail for the first time. Holmes responds "nope" but concedes he sometimes cries before he goes to bed because he regrets the shooting.
In much of the video recorded at the Colorado Mental Health Institute in Pueblo, Reid tries to create a rapport with Holmes, asking him about his family and his social and academic life in high school and college.
Reid testified he conducted about 300 hours of research before analyzing Holmes in late July 2014. He interviewed Holmes nine times, for a total of 22 hours.
3:30 p.m. MDT
A state-appointed psychiatrist says he did about 300 hours of research before starting to interview James Holmes in late July 2014, over two years after Holmes opened fire at a Colorado movie theater.
Dr. William Reid acknowledged a lot had changed between the July 2012 shooting and his interview, including what he described as Holmes' "physical and mental breakdown" in November 2012.
Reid testified Thursday that Holmes' breakdown occurred when he was treated at a Denver hospital and began taking anti-psychotic medication.
Reid's research before examining Holmes included talking to Holmes' parents, visiting the jail where Holmes is being held, reading Holmes' notebook and looking at videos from the jail and from Holmes' hospital stay.
Holmes has pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity in the attack, which killed 12 people and injured 70.
Testimony in the Colorado theater shooting trial has resumed after the judge recited the legal definition of insanity to the jury.
Judge Carlos Samour also instructed jurors to consider a psychiatrist's testimony only as to James Holmes' plea of not guilty by reason of insanity.
District Attorney George Brauchler asked Dr. William Reid if he believed Holmes met the legal definition of sanity at the time of the 2012 attack, and Reid declared, "Yes."
Brauchler preceded that question by asking if Reid believed Holmes had the capacity to distinguish right from wrong at the time. Brauchler didn't refer specifically to the shooting.
"Yes," Reid said.
Brauchler then asked Reid if he believed that Holmes had the capacity or intent to act knowingly and after deliberation at the time of the event. "Yes," Reid answered.
The judge in the Colorado theater shooting case has denied a defense request for a mistrial after a state-appointed psychiatrist gave his opinion about James Holmes' sanity.
William Reid testified Thursday that Holmes was able to form intent and knew the consequences of what he was doing at the time of the July 2012 attack. The psychiatrist's comments prompted questions from the defense about whether he violated rules on what he's allowed to tell jurors.
Judge Carlos Samour concluded Reid can testify about whether Holmes is capable of distinguishing between right and wrong. But he says Reid shouldn't give his opinion about whether Holmes actually did so.
Samour ruled that Reid stayed on the right side of that subtle line.
12:15 p.m. MDT
The Colorado theater shooting trial is in recess for lunch, and the judge says he'll use the break to think about an undisclosed issue that came up as soon as a state-appointed psychiatrist gave his opinion about James Holmes' sanity.
Before discussing the details of his 22 hours of interviews with Holmes, William Reid gave his conclusion: that Holmes was able to form intent and knew the consequences of what he was doing at the time of the July 2012 attack.
That prompted the defense to ask to talk privately with Judge Carlos Samour and prosecutors about Reid's comments.
Samour earlier set some ground rules about what Reid could and couldn't say about Holmes' mental state. It's possible the defense thinks he violated them.
11:45 a.m. MDT
The second of two state-appointed psychiatrists who examined the Colorado theater gunman believes James Holmes knew the consequences of his actions.
William Reid says: "Whatever he suffered from, it did not prevent him from forming the intent and knowing what he was doing and the consequences of what he was doing."
The comment led the defense to ask to speak to the judge. Lawyers are talking to Judge Carlos Samour privately about it.
Before Reid took the stand Thursday, Samour said the psychiatrist wouldn't be able to say whether Holmes had a particular mental state at the time of the July 2012 mass shooting.
Holmes has pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity in the Aurora movie theater attack, which killed 12 people and injured 70.
The second of two state-appointed psychiatrists who examined the Colorado theater gunman is testifying at James Holmes' trial in suburban Denver.
Excerpts of William Reid's 22 hours of videotaped interviews with Holmes were played on the trial's opening day. In one, Holmes called people wounded in the attack "collateral damage."
District Attorney George Brauchler told jurors at the time that Reid concluded Holmes was legally sane.
But before Reid took the stand Thursday, Judge Carlos Samour said Reid won't be able to say whether Holmes had a particular mental state at the time of the July 2012 mass shooting.
Holmes has pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity in the attack at an Aurora movie theater that killed 12 people and injured 70.
Under Colorado law, the burden of proof is on prosecutors to convince jurors that Holmes was sane and knew right from wrong.

Dominic Raab's mobile number freely available online for last decade
Exclusive: Finding raises questions for security services weeks after similar revelations about PM's number
For UK foreign secretary, simply having a mobile represents a security risk
The private mobile number of Dominic Raab, the UK foreign secretary, has been online for at least 11 years, raising questions for the security services weeks after the prime minister's number was also revealed to be accessible to anyone.
Raab's number was discovered by a Guardian reader using a Google search. It appears to have been online since before he became an MP in 2010, and remained after he became foreign secretary and first secretary of state – de facto deputy prime minister – in 2019.

Having just moved in with her fiance, Kris, Marice isn't too happy to be given an out of town job. She has been sent to Daytona Beach, Florida. There's been a huge sting operation, and the local FBI is under scrutiny. The Marshals have been called in to oversee prisoner transfers.
Things get sticky when Marice and her team are ordered to transport the ringleader, China Finetti, from Daytona Beach to a federal prison in Kansas City. Someone sets a car bomb, injuring Marice and Butch—and that's only the tip of the iceberg. Everything seems to point to China Finetti pulling the strings from prison—if so, how do they prove it?

Canada's Conservative Party calls to give Ukraine weapons for $9.5 million
Armaments previously assigned to the Iraqi Kurds are stored several months in the depots of Canadian Armed Forces
The Conservative Party of Canada called on the government to allocate $ 9.5 million worth of military equipment, originally intended for Kurdish forces to fight Islamic militants in Iraq to Ukraine. North Shore News reported this.
The Trudeau government announced 15 months ago that it would give the Kurds weapons — including rifles, machine-guns, light mortars, grenade launchers and anti-tank missiles — as part of Canada's revamped mission to help eradicate the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant.
But there were delays in getting approvals from the Iraqi government, and in ensuring adequate safeguards were in place to prevent the weapons from winding up in the hands of paramilitary groups accused of committing war crimes in Iraq.
By the time the weapons were finally purchased late last year, Iraqi and Kurdish forces had turned on each other over the Kurds' renewed push to carve out an independent state in northern Iraq.
To this day, those weapons remain in storage at a Canadian Forces supply depot in Montreal.

Now, the Conservatives say a Scheer government would send those arms to Ukraine instead.
"They've been allowing these weapons to sit in storage and collect dust and, meanwhile, the violence in Ukraine has taken on a new spring offensive," said Conservative defence critic James Bezan.
"Instead of letting those weapons go to waste, let's get them in the hands of people that can use them."
As it was reported earlier, the supplies of the modern Javelin anti-tank missiles to Ukraine took place a few weeks ago. Heather Nauert, the spokesperson of U.S. Department of State said. Nauert also emphasized that this issue was deliberately not disclosed and people who kept it in secret 'did a good job'.
At the same time, Nauert refused to comment the article of The New York Times that the Ukrainian side refused to cooperate in the investigation of the special prosecutor Muller for the supplies.
