A stunning situation is unfolding on the island of Cyprus.
Like other countries in Europe, Cyprus is in a debt crisis and is seeking a bailout from European central bankers.

The Fallibility of "Peer Review"
Source: The-Scientist.com
--According to a recent analysis published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, about 67 percent of 2047 studies retracted from biomedical and life-science journals (as of May 3, 2012) resulted from scientific misconduct. However, the same PNAS study indicated that about 21 percent of the retractions were attributed to a scientific error. This indicates that failures in peer-review led to the publication of studies that shouldn't have passed muster. This relatively low number of studies published in error (ca. 436) might be the tip of a larger iceberg, caused by the unwillingness of the editors to take an action.
Peer review is clearly an imperfect process, to say the least. Shoddy reviewing or reviewers have allowed subpar science into the literature. We hear about some of these oversights when studies are retracted due to "scientific error." Really, the error in these cases lies with reviewers, who should have caught such mistakes or deceptions in their initial review of the research. But journal editors are also to blame for not sufficiently using their powers to retract scientifically erroneous studies.

Family's Home Raided over Facebook Photo of Child's Rifle
Source: Foxnews.com
--"To make someone go through this because he posted a picture of his son with a .22 rifle on his Facebook page is pretty outrageous," he said. "Does that mean that anyone who posts a picture like that has to consent to a home inspection and a gun inspection? I don't think so."
Nappen said they are considering taking legal action against the state for the late night raid.

Organic Awareness is Growing - The Fight for GMO Labeling Continues
Source: Mercola.com
--This is indeed a huge problem, as numerous polls and surveys have shown that otherwise health-conscious Americans do not understand the qualitative difference between organic and so-called "natural" products. Contrary to reality, the majority of consumers believe the "natural" label equates to "almost organic," and many believe the "all-natural" label means a product is better than organic! That's the power of word-association, and these industries are well aware of how the word natural "feels" to consumers who are in the dark about the regulatory differences between the labels... As stated by Cummins:
"This is outrageous, given that organic food and products, by law and by third-party certification, are produced without the use of synthetic pesticides and chemical fertilizers, animal drugs, genetically modified organisms (GMOs), irradiation, nanoparticles, or sewage sludge, whereas so-called 'natural' products are unregulated."

You Are An Anarchist. The Question Is: How Often?
Source: Fee.org
--Consider Cambodia in the late 1970s. The Khmer Rouge government intentionally killed more than two million of its own citizens. That's an average of eight percent of the population killed each year while government simultaneously inflicted countless other horrors. Do you think the Cambodian people, faced with that government, would have been better off with no government at all? Congratulations. You are, sometimes, an anarchist.

Could Blue Light Replace Antibiotics?
Source: Mercola.com
In the study, lab animals were infected with P. aeruginosa. Incredibly, ALL of the animals treated with blue light survived while 82 percent of the controls died. Could this possibly be the beginning of a whole new treatment paradigm for infections? Clearly, we're nearing the end of the road of the antibiotic era, as antibiotic-resistance spreads.
Blue light therapy has also been shown effective against MRSA and other resistant bugs, offering new hope for effective treatments.
In a previous study published in 2009,3 over 90 percent of community acquired and hospital acquired strains of MRSA were successfully eradicated within mere minutes of exposure to blue light.

1970s Global Cooling Alarmism
Source: PopularTechnology.net
During the 1970s the media promoted global cooling alarmism with dire threats of a new ice age. Extreme weather events were hyped as signs of the coming apocalypse and man-made pollution was blamed as the cause. Environmental extremists called for everything from outlawing the internal combustion engine to communist style population controls. This media hype was found in newspapers, magazines, books and on television;

Fiat Bitcoins VS Fiat Federal Reserve Notes (w/ Video)
Source: JoePlummer.com
There are three really big problems with the FED's monetary system:
1. All of the "money" that the FED creates is inextricably tied to debt. In other words, the money that the FED creates only exists because a person, business, or government has borrowed it into existence. If the loan (which created the money) is repaid, those loaned dollars cease to exist. They disappear from the economy and will not return until another loan is made. This is a debt trap that our society cannot escape and it only grows deeper and more dangerous with the passage of time.
