A Strange Tale of Plagiarism, Journalists

and Damage Limitation

But Not Necessarily in That Order.

 by Martin J Walker MA

On Friday December 8, the Guardian newspaper and Radio 4’s Today programme both esteemed British journalistic institutions ran stories about Sir Richard Doll, the world’s greatest dead epidemiologist, and his corporate funding. Neither the Newspaper or the radio report mentioned a paper published a month before by the American Journal of Industrial Medicine (4) which dealt specifically with claims that Doll had received large amounts of money in consultancy fees from Monsanto. Both items ignored not only the AJIM paper, but also the past eight years’ research that I have carried out into the man and his industrial funding. The stories plagiarised, distorted and devalued research material that I had presented in 2003. http://www.zeusinfoservice.com/Articles/FinalScoop.pdf

 

ORIGINAL PAPER - MARTIN J. WALKER - pdf. of the Hardell, Walker, Friedman, Richter paper which exposed Sir Richard Doll's industry links in November 2006, 3 years after Walker had published them in Company Men Part II - also published on this site.

GSK snaps up Domantis to move into biotech field

9 December 2006

GlaxoSmithKline snapped up the privately owned British biotech company Domantis yesterday in a £230m deal that catapults the pharmaceutical firm into the arena of next generation antibody drugs. 

This is just the latest in a string of deals made by major drug companies keen to get a foothold in biotech medicine and more than doubles Glaxo's projects in this area. 

Monoclonal antibodies, such as the breast cancer drug Herceptin, are laboratory-engineered versions of the antibodies found in the natural immune system and bind with targets in the body. However, their therapeutic applications have been constrained by their large molecular size. Existing medicines are administered by injection.

The alternative professor

This is a scientist willing to explore the unthinkable and unwilling to be told what to think. Scientific logic says homeopathy cannot work, but Ernst continues to study its therapies not to shoot it down, but in the hope of discovering what it is that does work. He treats his French wife with homeopathy, he says. "We were both brought up with it."

Orgone Chips

Reduce your electric bills by 25-30%! Ongoing home-grown experiments are showing that Orgone applied to electrical devices can reduce energy consumption by as high as 30%. Simply place this chips along power lines for AC's refridgerators or on top of electric meters.
More Orgone devices the greater the power savings. How does this work? Orgone creates a Negative-Entropy field, i.e. Life-force energy. The Orgone field brings coherence to the electricity traveling across a wire. Normally up to 90% of the electric juice is lost due to heat and friction. The percentage of lost current drops as Orgone is applied to electrical devices. Orgone will also protect you from the negative effects of High EMF fields. High EMF fields weaken your electro-magnetic fields, which is your immune system. Placing Orgone in your home will make these magnetic fields compatible with human biology. We have a win-win situation, improve your health and reduce your electric bills.
You can also carry around these Orgone chips in your pocket for protection and to draw in good fortune.

Why Genetically Modifying (GM) Food Products Is A No No by Chris Gupta 

December 10, 2006.

Monsanto is making a killing on these seeds and chemicals. These corporations have lots of products for you in the pipeline. Here are just a few: Aluminum tolerance in papaya, tobacco, rice, and corn (so they can grow the plants in soil contaminated with aluminum). Growth-enhanced farm-raised salmon. Monosexed fish. Altering carnivorous fish to starch-based digestion. Antifreeze gene in warm-water fish to raise them in cold climates.

The book has sold 250,000 copies since 1999 and has spawned a cottage industry of books about indigo children.

Europe - Europa and Bible prophecy

by Stephen Clarke - 16th March 2004

One thing I found out on a visit to Brussels a couple of years ago amazed me somewhat. You're no doubt aware that the woman riding the beast is a symbol of the end-times empire described in Revelations. Imagine my surprise when I arrived at the European Commision to see a statue of a woman riding a beast overlooking the plaza at the entrance. Apparently this is Europa - from the greek myth of the same name and an official symbol of the EU.

One more thing, the beast carries ten horns - horns denote power - and upon the horns crowns - crowns denote kingdoms. Little known, but true, is this - The EU has a military arm called the WEU which is sheduled for ursurping NATO's role in the coming years as a global police force. Guess how many member states there are - that's right - 10 - check out their flag at http://www.weu.int  - The WEU is comprised of this permanent ten member core and no additions are to be made to this core - instead it has numerous non-permanent members. If they do become a global military power then we are certainly in end-times territory in a big way!  http://www.bilderberg.org/trib.htm#666
