Ford Exec Clarifies his Statement about Tracking Drivers
Source: Business Insider
Jim Farley, the global vp of marketing and sales at Ford, tells Business Insider he made a mistake when he implied that Ford gathers so much data from GPS units inside its customers' cars that the company knows when they're speeding or breaking the law.
"I absolutely left the wrong impression about how Ford operates. We do not track our customers in their cars without their approval or their consent," he says. "The statement I made in my eyes was hypothetical and I want to clear this up."
His original comments came yesterday during a panel discussion on consumer privacy at CES, the big electronics convention in Las Vegas: "We know everyone who breaks the law, we know when you're doing it. We have GPS in your car, so we know what you're doing. By the way, we don't supply that data to anyone," he told attendees.

A recent meta-review conducted by researchers at Harvard and Stanford3 compared the effectiveness of exercise versus drug interventions on mortality outcomes for diabetes, coronary heart disease, heart failure, and stroke. After reviewing 305 randomized controlled trials, which included nearly 339,300 people, they found "no statistically detectable differences" between physical activity and medications for prediabetes and heart disease.

Flu Attack! How a Virus Invades your Body
Source: Mercola.com
--The 'gold standard' of independent scientific evaluation and analysis, the Cochrane Database Review, has issued no less than five reports between 2006 and 2010, all of which decimate the myth that flu vaccinations are "the most effective flu prevention method" available.
In real-world and not laboratory conditions, when a flu vaccine at least partially matches the circulating virus, 100 people need to be vaccinated in order to avoid just ONE set of influenza symptoms, according to Cochrane's findings.
Yet as another flu season approaches, all these facts are conspicuously ignored by conventional medicine and media alike, and you'll certainly never see them mentioned in any flu vaccine promotion campaign. What else won't you typically see mentioned?
The fact that the status of your immune system is the most powerful determinant of whether or not you'll get sick this flu season … with flu or one of the hundreds of other flu-like illnesses going around.

Silicon Valley billionaire funding creation of artificial libertarian islands
Source: Yahoo
Pay Pal founder and early Facebook investor Peter Thiel has given $1.25 million to an initiative to create floating libertarian countries in international waters, according to a profile of the billionaire in Details magazine.
Thiel has been a big backer of the Seasteading Institute, which seeks to build sovereign nations on oil rig-like platforms to occupy waters beyond the reach of law-of-the-sea treaties. The idea is for these countries to start from scratch--free from the laws, regulations, and moral codes of any existing place. Details says the experiment would be "a kind of floating petri dish for implementing policies that libertarians, stymied by indifference at the voting booths, have been unable to advance: no welfare, looser building codes, no minimum wage, and few restrictions on weapons."

No More GMOs In Cheerios
Source: LibertyCrier.com
General Mills, maker of Cheerios, is stripping that one breakfast cereal of genetically modified organisms, seeing a growing market for foods with no GMOs. 'An avalanche' of companies will follow that lead, one analyst predicts.
Cheerios will no longer contain genetically modified ingredients, a manufacturer decision driven by heightened consumer awareness about the perceived health risks of such products, say food service experts.
General Mills, the Minneapolis-based company that makes the legendary breakfast cereal, announced the change late Thursday, saying it will use cornstarch and sugar that are not genetically modified when producing the cereal. Offshoots of the Cheerios brand, such as Honey Nut Cheerios, are not affected by the change. Nor are any other General Mills cereals.

MICHIGAN NULLIFIES NDAA INDEFINITE DETENTION
Source: BennSwann.com
Michigan Governor Rick Snyder (R) signed into law yesterday SB0094. The bill attempts to nullify Section 1021 of the 2012 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). Michigan joins other states who have sought to nullify the NDAA's controversial indefinite detention clause.
SB0094 sponsor Michigan Senator Rick Jones (R) told us:
"Historically Michigan first asserted 10th Amendment rights in 1855 when we passed a law to block the Fugitive Slave Act. I thought of this great history as I pushed the bill to nullify the NDAA. No US citizen should have to fear being thrown into jail or prison without charges. I got support from both sides of the political spectrum. With the Governor's signature, Michigan states no local police, state police, sheriff or Michigan National Guard will assist the feds with holding a US citizen without Habeas Corpus."
