Mind-Reading Technology

In case you needed any more evidence that science and technology are racing ahead faster than our ability to understand the implications and prepare for responsible governance, read this:

A team of world-leading neuroscientists has developed a powerful technique that allows them to look deep inside a person’s brain and read their intentions before they act.The research breaks controversial new ground in scientists’ ability to probe people’s minds and eavesdrop on their thoughts, and raises serious ethical issues over how brain-reading technology may be used in the future.

The team used high-resolution brain scans to identify patterns of activity before translating them into meaningful thoughts, revealing what a person planned to do in the near future. It is the first time scientists have succeeded in reading intentions in this way.

Whether it is neuroscience, genetic engineering, or nanotechnology, it is clear that a great deal more emphasis should be placed on studying the ethical, legal, and social implications (ELSI) of these emerging technologies.

We’re not advocating to slow down the technical track — that would be nearly impossible, and unwise to boot — but governments, corporate groups, and international issue organizations must prioritize and amply budget for serious applied studies of risks, benefits, and potential regulatory strategies.

Top 10 Reasons for Using Nanotech in Food

(The Demonic Criminals Get “us” to believe that these things are good for us, later we found it being used for mind control.)

Abstract:
Nanotechnology is in your food. Not all food. But those tiny, specialized particles (1,000 of them together would approximate the thickness of a piece of office paper), which are already advancing research in energy, biotech and medicine, are finding their way into food stuffs. Used in different ways, nanoparticles can extend food shelf life, add health benefits, impact flavor or even signal bacteria contamination.

But many people watching these innovations are shaking their heads with distrust.

“Companies are engaged in nanoscale research; however, they do not publicly declare so partly because of uncertainty in the safety assessment and regulatory climate,” said Betty Bugusu, research scientist at the Institute of Food Technologists in Washington, D.C.

Think of the arguments surrounding genetically modified crops this past decade and you’ll have some idea of the controversy over nanotechnology being used in food. Add to that the reality that companies aren’t always forthcoming about their use of nanotechnology when developing new products. The secrecy intended to deter competitors from stealing ideas can also make identifying potential harm more difficult for the regulatory agencies trying to manage risks and create law for this emerging technology.

Nonetheless, nanotechnology could offer benefits in food safety, storage, packaging and nutrition.

“I, personally, think that the most important applications of nanotechnology and food are in the area of sensing — spoilage, bacteria, other contaminants; crop safety,” said Lori Sheremeta, research officer for the Alberta Ingenuity Fund, National Institute for Nanotechnology in Edmonton, Canada.
The Project for Emerging Nanotechnologies, which has a database of consumer products and primarily government-funded nanotech grant proposals, reflects Sheremeta’s perspective. Two areas with the greatest number of scientists in pursuit of patents are detection of bacteria and contaminants, and development of better food storage.

Hongda Chen of the USDA’s Cooperative State Research, Education, and Extension Service in Washington, D.C., sees additional benefits in nutrition. People spend money on vitamins, minerals and other nutritional supplements out of concern that ordinary food isn’t providing them adequately with nutrients. Adding encapsulated nano-nutrients to food and beverages provides a two-in-one solution, Chen says.

“Nutrient delivery through nanotechnology is an area that can help improve health and save money,” he said. “This still requires more research, but that’s the visionary goal.”

Here are the top ten reasons why we should continue the conversation about using nanotechnology in food. Each point on the list is illustrated with at least one example the experts found to be especially useful or promising. Though several innovations on the list are still cooking on the proverbial laboratory backburner and may not be in the food production web for a few more years, others are being served up right now.

1. CONTAMINATION SENSOR
A University of Rochester Medical Center team has given quality assurance staff a way to immediately detect E. coli bacteria in a food sample by using a digital camera and a laser. The team’s research measuring and detecting light scattering by cell mitochondria evolved toward development of a system detecting light scattering in the presence of E. coli bacteria. A protein of the bacterium set on a silicon chip binds with any other E. coli bacteria present in the food sample. This binding results in a nano-sized light scattering detectable by analysis of digital images. A biosensor developed by an Agricultural Research Service scientist in Athens, Georgia, and his university colleagues uses fluorescent dye particles attached to bacteria antibodies. If Salmonella bacteria are present in the food being tested, the nano-sized dye particles become visible. No need to send out to the lab and wait days for culturing results with these two examples of instantaneous sensors.

2. ANTIMICROBIAL PACKAGING
Foods such as cheese, sliced meat and bakery that are prone to spoiling on the surface have been the focus for contact packaging imbued with antimicrobials. Spanish researchers and the manufacturer Artibal SA have brought to market a food film for bakery products that incorporates the essential oil of cinnamon. Working with oregano oil and apple puree, scientists for the USDA Agricultural Research Service have created edible food films that are able to kill certain E. coli. Britain’s University of Leeds is testing packaging made with nano particles of zinc, calcium, magnesium oxide and titanium dioxide — materials that are more cheaply sourced than nano silver, the now-controversial forerunner for antimicrobial packaging and food storage boxes.

3. IMPROVED FOOD STORAGE
Nanoclays embedded in plastic bottles and nylon food films stiffen packaging and reduce gas permeability. The nano-enhanced barrier keeps oxygen-sensitive foods fresher and can reduce packaging costs for manufacturers. Bayer Polymers has created a low cost nanoclay composite interior coating for paperboard cartons to keep juice fresher. And are you ready for beer in plastic bottles? Nanocomposites such as Nanocor’s Imperm or Honeywell’s Aegis OX with oxygen radical scavenging ability give plastic bottle manufacturers a 6-month shelf life for their beer.

4. ENHANCED NUTRIENT DELIVERY
Nano-encapsulating takes the process of micro encapsulation, a means for drug delivery pioneered by the pharmaceutical industry, and improves solubility of vitamins, antioxidants, healthy omega oil fractions and other nutrients. Israel’s NutraLease won a Food Expo Innovation Award last year from the IFT for their process. Nano-nutrient particles are fully soluble and invisible in water and oil, widening the door for potential nutraceutical beverages.

5. GREEN PACKAGING
Biodegradable bioplastics, usually made from plant-based materials, have become a big research focus for nanotechnology these days. Plantic, a company in Australia, manufactures their packaging from the starch of organic, non genetically modified corn. Using chitin, the main component of lobster shells, Jochen Weiss at the University of Hohenheim in Germany and Jose Maria Lagaron of the Agrochemistry and Food Technology Institute in Spain are just two of many materials scientists world wide who work with the electrospinning of this natural polymer. Chitosan is dissolved in solvent and the solution drawn through a tiny hole with applied electricity, a long, nano-slim fiber spins out from the hole. These strong and naturally antimicrobial nano fibers from a sustainable source can be developed into green food packaging.

6. PESTICIDE REDUCTION
A Cornell University team headed by textile scientist Margaret Frey developed a cloth farmers can use to reduce the amount of crop agrichemicals. Planted along with seeds, the cloth’s saturated nano fibers slowly release pesticides and herbicides so that additional spraying of crops becomes unnecessary. The targeted release also eliminates chemical leaching into the water supply to benefit both consumers and the environment.

7. TRACKING, TRACING; BRAND PROTECTION
California’s Oxonica makes Nanobarcodes from nano-particles that contain silver and gold stripes varying in width, length and amount, such that billions of combinations can be created to tag individual products. The barcodes have been primarily used to assure brand and authenticity in pharmaceuticals, but applications could be forthcoming in tracing food batches. Combined with pathogen sensors, the barcodes that must be read by modified microscopes could trace sources of outbreak.

8. TEXTURE
Scaling down the size of food molecules to nano-sized crystals creates more particles for an overall greater surface area. Wageningen University in central Holland has developed water-in-oil-in-water emulsions of nano-sized lipids. Food technologists say food spreadability and stability improve as a result of incorporating these multiple emulsions, as they’re called. For example a low-fat mayonnaise formulation provides a satisfying fatty mouth feel, tasters said, such that extra stabilizers and thickeners aren’t needed to achieve the desirable texture. The nano-emulsion could have its application in formulating other low-fat products.

9. FLAVOR
San Diego-based Senomyx has created novel flavors such as cold and creamy based on a rethinking of how taste buds perceive flavor. Using nanoscale assays, researchers have identified which individual cells on a given taste bud perceive a flavor. Each cell would recognize just one of the five main flavors — bitter, salty, sweet, sour and umami. Working within this conceptualization, the company has developed a library of flavors, including compounds called bitter blockers. These specialized molecules trick the tongue into not tasting the bitterness naturally inherent in foods such as cocoa or soy. These bitter blockers as well as Senomyx’s sweet and salty enhancers have already gotten the nod of approval from food giants such as Nestle and Coca Cola who are responding to consumer desires for packaged foods and beverages formulated with less salt and sugar.

10. BACTERIA IDENTIFICATION AND ELIMINATION
Researchers at Clemson University in South Carolina have developed a chicken feed to remove campylobacter, a bacteria common and benign in poultry that provokes cramps and diarrhea in people ingesting the contaminated, undercooked meat. The feed enriched by nano carbohydrate particles binds with the bacterium’s surface to remove it through the bird’s feces. These nano particles might one day be combined with sensors in order to identify and remove other bacteria. Eventually, researchers say, these antibiotic-functioning nanoparticles might even be applied to targeting and treating bacterial disease in humans. But for now, use in chickens might reduce the one million annual outbreaks of campylobacteriosis in Americans.

Food Packaging Using Nanotechnology Methods: an Overview of ‘Smart Packaging’ and ‘Active Packaging’

(The Demonic Criminals Get “us” to believe that these things are good for us, later we found it being used for mind control.)

Using Clay Nanoparticles to Improve Plastic Packaging for Food Products

How Creating a Molecular Barrier by Embedding Nanocrystals in Plastic Can Improve Packaging

Using Nanotechnology Methods to Develop Antimicrobial Packaging and ‘Active Packaging’

Embedded Sensors in Food Packaging and ‘Electronic Tongue’ Technology
Using a Nanotech Bioswitch in ‘Release on Command’ Food Packaging

Using Food Packaging Sensors in Defence and Security Applications

Problems in Industrial Food Production that Sensors and ‘Smart Packaging’ Will Not Address
Background

Today, food packaging and monitoring are a major focus of food industry-related nanotech R&D. Packaging that incorporates nanomaterials can be “smart,” which means that it can respond to environmental conditions or repair itself or alert a consumer to contamination and/or the presence of pathogens. According to industry analysts, the current US market for “active, controlled and smart” packaging for foods and beverages is an estimated $38 billion – and will surpass $54 billion by 2008. The following examples illustrate nanoscale applications for food & beverage packaging.
Using Clay Nanoparticles to Improve Plastic Packaging for Food Products

Chemical giant Bayer produces a transparent plastic film (called Durethan) containing nanoparticles of clay. The nanoparticles are dispersed throughout the plastic and are able to block oxygen, carbon dioxide and moisture from reaching fresh meats or other foods. The nanoclay also makes the plastic lighter, stronger and more heat-resistant.
How Creating a Molecular Barrier by Embedding Nanocrystals in Plastic Can Improve Packaging

Until recently, industry’s quest to package beer in plastic bottles (for cheaper transport) was unsuccessful because of spoilage and flavour problems. Today, Nanocor, a subsidiary of Amcol International Corp., is producing nanocomposites for use in plastic beer bottles that give the brew a six-month shelf-life. By embedding nanocrystals in plastic, researchers have created a molecular barrier that helps prevent the escape of oxygen. Nanocor and Southern Clay Products are now working on a plastic beer bottle that may increase shelf-life to 18 months.
Using Nanotechnology Methods to Develop Antimicrobial Packaging and ‘Active Packaging’

Kodak, best known for producing camera film, is using nanotech to develop antimicrobial packaging for food products that will be commercially available in 2005. Kodak is also developing other ‘active packaging,’ which absorbs oxygen, thereby keeping food fresh.
Embedded Sensors in Food Packaging and ‘Electronic Tongue’ Technology

Scientists at Kraft, as well as at Rutgers University and the University of Connecticut, are working on nano-particle films and other packaging with embedded sensors that will detect food pathogens. Called “electronic tongue” technology, the sensors can detect substances in parts per trillion and would trigger a colour change in the packaging to alert the consumer if a food has become contaminated or if it has begun to spoil.
Using a Nanotech Bioswitch in ‘Release on Command’ Food Packaging

Researchers in the Netherlands are going one further to develop intelligent packaging that will release a preservative if the food within begins to spoil. This “release on command” preservative packaging is operated by means of a bioswitch developed through nanotechnology.
Using Food Packaging Sensors in Defence and Security Applications

Developing small sensors to detect food-borne pathogens will not just extend the reach of industrial agriculture and large-scale food processing. In the view of the US military, it’s a national security priority. With present technologies, testing for microbial food-contamination takes two to seven days and the sensors that have been developed to date are too big to be transported easily. Several groups of researchers in the US are developing biosensors that can detect pathogens quickly and easily, reasoning that “super sensors” would play a crucial role in the event of a terrorist attack on the food supply. With USDA and National Science Foundation funding, researchers at Purdue University are working to produce a hand-held sensor capable of detecting a specific bacteria instantaneously from any sample. They’ve created a start-up company called BioVitesse.
Problems in Industrial Food Production that Sensors and ‘Smart Packaging’ Will Not Address

While devices capable of detecting food-borne pathogens could be useful in monitoring the food supply, sensors and ‘smart packaging’ will not address the root problems inherent in industrial food production that result in contaminated foods: faster meat (dis)assembly lines, increased mechanisation, a shrinking labour force of low-wage workers, fewer inspectors, the lack of corporate and government accountability and the great distances between food producers, processors and consumers. Just as it has become the consumer’s responsibility to make sure meat has been cooked long enough to ensure that pathogens have been killed, consumers will soon be expected to act as their own meat inspectors so that industry can continue to trim safety overhead costs and increase profits.

Do You Want To Be A “Government Guinea Pig” For The Rest of Your Life?

“We Don’t Want To Kill Science, but Don’t Want Science To Kill, Mange, & Abuse Us”

Contact Congress & the President to Request an Emergency Moratorium on Human Subjects Experiments on Dec. 19 & 20 or Join Us In Washington DC on Dec. 20

December 16, 2011-Trenton, NJ- Like our future, the future of America is at stake. Many of us have been placed in a non-consensual human experiment, which utilizes advanced electronic/electromagnetic radiation technology and COINTELPRO tactics. Electromagnetic radiation (ionizing radiation) is invisible to the naked eye, which can cause cancer and kill you. You can visit gammascout.com and learn about it. This started out being about saving my family, but now I maybe saving yours, too. Do I have your attention now?” Many Americans (and those worldwide) have been placed in non-consensual human experimentation, which utilizes advanced electronic/ electromagnetic radiation technology and COINTELPRO tactics. The United States has a long history of putting people in experiments without their consent. Do you remember the Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment, which lasted for over 40 years? In August 2011, the Presidential Commission for the Bioethical Ethics declared the Guatemala experiment as “unethical”. It made national and international news all across the world.

On December 15, 2011 (ironically, it was Bill of Rights Day), The Bioethics Commission published their final report. The Commission Chair, Amy Gutmann, Ph.D. said, “The Commission is confident that what happened in Guatemala in the 1940s could not happen today,” Many non-consensual human subjects testified at their 4th and 5th meetings (www.bioethics.gov) and 3 of us (a retired attorney, a 3rd year student, & myself; a former Federal Government engineer) have provided them with substantial evidence that the current Federal laws and International statutes are not adequate to protect human subjects. First, the informed consent is not on the law books because Congress has failed to pass the Human Subjects Protection Act in 1997, 2002, 2003, 2006, 2008 and 2011 which has allowed for unethical, non-consensual human subject experiments to continue. The researchers must get permission first, before experimenting with you. A list of the proposed laws is at www.circare.org. Since 1991, the Common Rule has not been a strict, ethical, enforceable and lawfully, promulgated regulation. It is now being updated. None of the Federal Agencies implemented the May 27, 1997 Executive Order by former President William Clinton that “Prohibits waiver of informed consent and requires researchers to disclose that the project is classified. For all, but minimal risk studies, it requires researchers to inform subjects of the sponsoring agency.” Since 1991, there have been numerous cases similar to the Guatemala syphilis experiment, which are listed at www.mnwelldir.org/docs/history/experiments.htm. Government attorneys have cited that the 45 CFR 46 are not laws, but “guidelines”. It makes it impossible to get compensated for injuries, due to being a non-consensual human subject There are many more reasons inose 3 investigative reports

None of our concerns were even mentioned in the 200 pages. You can watch Meeting 4 session 10 (March 1, 2011) and Meeting 5 Session 6 (May 18, 2011): Public Comments at bioethics.gov/cms/meeting-four and bioethics.gov/cms/meeting-five . In addition, you can download the transcript in pdf file or watch the live archived sessions.

We are asking for your support for two days: December 19 and 20, 2011. Please contact your Congressional Representatives & President Obama to ask for an emergency moratorium for all human subject experiments until strict, ethical, enforceable & lawfully, promulgated Federal regulations & International standards are ratified. We are also requesting that investigations are conducted into determining which Federal agencies are torturing law-abiding U.S. citizens. We would like this emergency moratorium passed before Christmas. You can use all of those words.

Here are the activities for the next 3 days:

1. Join us by praying & fasting from sundown on Saturday, Dec. 17, 2011 to sundown on Monday, Dec. 20, 2011.
2. Conference Call on Sunday, Dec. 18, 2011 @ 9:00 p.m. Call: 724-444-7444 Call ID #: 112450 Pin: 1#.
3. You can join us in Washington, DC on Tuesday, Dec. 20, 2011 @ 9:00 a.m. in front of U.S. Capitol Building. It will be a day full of blessing the Federal buildings, prayers, passing out literature & meeting with Congressional Representatives in DC.
4. Contact your Congressional representatives & the President Obama starting at 9:00 a.m. on Dec. 19. One Congressional representative said that if they got 20 phone calls on one issue, then they will investigate it. Will you be one of the 20?

Who are the Non-Consensual Human Subjects? Many are Law-Abiding Citizens & Heroes

Ms. Peters states, “Many people who are in this “experiment” are whistleblowers, people of faith, people of color, alternative media, journalists, human rights & peace workers, environmentalists, activists, celebrities, dissidents and women, especially women who live alone. People with infirmities, elderly people, and children are not exempt. Even the military is experimenting on its own; without his or her informed consent. We know now that they are not supposed to be doing it, but they are. This is happening to millions of innocent law-abiding people in America and worldwide known as Targeted Individuals or TIs.

While many Americans are caught up with the latest “celebrity tabloid” or watching their favorite “reality show”, many heroes are risking their lives to stop the corruption that is happening around you every day. Have you heard the story of Richard Taus, John Carman, Darlene Fitzgerald (bordergate.net), or Rodney Stich? They are some of our heroes. Many have died, been incarcerated, or even been committed to a mental institution. This is happening because “the organization” thinks that they can. They are “ABOVE THE LAW AND WHO IS GOING TO STOP THEM”. Their motto is “EVERYONE CAN BE BROUGHT FOR A PRICE”, or those heroes listed on www.defraudingamerica.com. They would whether do the right thing in order for justice to prevail, than be silent, take a bribe, or look the other way. Many have suffered such incredible loss that no one would imagine, unless you lived through it. What price can your soul be brought? People are “abusing” the law to do whatever they feel like it. This is not being reported in your major newspapers or on the nightly news, because they are being controlled. People should subscribe to alternative newspapers or watch alternative news.

I believe that many of you are unaware that your rights may have been violated by a Federal Investigator, please read, “IF AN AGENT KNOCKS”: FEDERAL INVESTIGATORS AND YOUR RIGHTS, which can be found at http://whatreallyhappened.com/RANCHO/POLITICS/COINTELPRO/agent.knocks.html.

Message To Our “Perps”- Repent & Confess

How could you do this to your family members, friends, neighbors, church members, or someone that you do not even know? You have been deceived. You are doing Satan’s work. You are murdering, maiming, and killing innocent law-abiding citizens. In the book, “Spies of Mississippi: The True Story of the Spy Network that Tried to Destroy the Civil Rights Movement” by Rick Bowers, he tells the story of Rev. Henry Hume, a conservative Black Baptist Minister who was very influential in the Black community became a spy for the Mississippi Sovereignty Commission in the 1950’s. When he was exposed in the newspaper, he tried to lie, but no one believed him. When he went to his “handler” for assistance, they did nothing for him. He fell from grace. They did not want to get involved. When he died suddenly of a heart attack, they came to get all of his paperwork. Do you want to end up like Rev. Hume? We are praying that you will confess & repent of your sins and tell the truth by 9:00 a.m. on Dec. 20, 2011. God loves you. You have been tricked by the devil. There’s a message for every prep to read called “perp email” on the document page. Murder is a sin! Doing physical or mental harm to someone is a sin. No one has the right to try to play “god”, even you. You are not a vigilante or a super Government spy! You are someone that they can use to do their dirty work.

Conference Calls:

We will host a conference call 2011 at 9:00 p.m EST on Sunday, December 18, 2011. EST. The call ID name is “CANCHE”. You can participate in the conference calls by phone OR computer:

Phone/Calling:

The call-in number is (724) 444-7444, Enter: 112450# (Call ID), Enter: 1# or your Pin.

Computer via 2 ways:

Letitia Peters states, “We are fighting for the human, civil, and constitutional rights of countless men, women, and children who have been placed into this “experiment” without your knowledge or informed consent into a federally funded human subject experiments nationally & internationally. They have invaded every aspect of our lives. How you would like it, if you came home to find that someone had rummaged through your personal items, taken your food, clothes, or worse yet, contaminated your items with some poison. There is NO PRIVACY! THIS IS NOT OF GOD, IT IS PURE EVIL! We need many prayer warriors. There is no coercion, you decide, but don’t say that I have not been warning you. You should turn away from your sin and turn back to God!

I challenge everyone

1) Do you want to see if you are implanted without your knowledge? I suggest that you buy this brand because it worked for me and I found it at Wal-Mart. You will need to go to the Hardware section and pick-up a Stanley Stud Sensor (this is a carpenter’s tool for $16.00). You will also need a 9V battery. If it beeps continuously, then there is a very strong possibility that you are implanted, then go to the doctor and request for an x-ray to be done in that area. If the doctor refuses, then there is a chance that you have been placed in the non-consensual experiment. Many Americans are being implanted without their consent. Read the saga of “Bob Boyce’s Un-Requested VeriChip and Associated Tumor Removed”, who was diagnosed with terminal cancer, which can be found at http://pesn.com/2010/12/07/9501740_Bob_Boyce_verichip_removed/ In 2009, VeriChip announced sales to Maryland’s Calvert Memorial Hospital and to Mercer and Atlantic counties in New Jersey. Did you know that VeriChips causes cancer?

2) Do you want to see the invisible realm? You can turn your camera to see into the visible realm by purchasing an infrared filter or infrared cover at Amazon. I have found that 2 cell phones can detect the electromagnetic radiation; Blackberry Pearl and the Samsung T140G. The Samsung T140G, a pre-paid phone detects the electromagnetic radiation. These cell phones do not need to be activated to use the camera or video camera on them.
