Government delays reaching EU deficit target by two years

Economy not expected to grow sufficiently to create jobs until 2015. A hike in personal income tax will remain for another year.
The government now expects the economy to shrink by 1.3 percent this year when it previously forecast a decline of 0.5 percent. Growth is expected to return in 2014, when GDP is seen advancing 0.5 percent. It will only be in 2015, when activity is projected to advance 2.4 percent, that jobs will be created. The pace of growth is expected to accelerate to 3.1 percent in 2016.

Milk: The Deadly Poison


American milk is banned in Europe and has been for some time. The reason for the ban, is the use of Bovine Growth Hormone in cows. BGH is a natural hormone that cows produce, and back in the early 90s Monsanto created their own version of it, which Americans now inject into cows in order to increase their milk production.The modern milk cow is already pushed to exhaustion, and attempting to increase milk production is inhumane.
BGH hurts the cows, they suffer from lameness, sterility, anemia and they get puss in their teats, which winds up in the milk and it also gives them bone cancer. BGH can be deadly to humans as it is linked to a long list of health conditions including:
  • Cancers - prostate cancer in men and breast cancer in women
  • Diabetes
  • Crohn’s
  • Obesity
  • Heart disease
  • Allergies
  • Digestive problems
  • Asthma
  • Osteoporosis
  • Calcium Deficiency
In a very amusing little book called, “50 Things You Are Not Supposed to Know”, I read of a secret that has been kept from consumers for years. Cows suffer from a type of leukemia known as BLV. Eighty-nine percent of all herds in America have BLV and it is especially bad in the Southeast region where 99% of herds have the tumor-causing bug.
In theory the virus is killed when the milk is pasteurized and in fact, no one knows if that is true or not. Several medical studies have found a correlation between higher milk/beef consumption and leukemia or lymphoma.
Latte, cappuccino, anyone? Might not be a such good idea, go for an espresso, much safer for now and supplement your diet with fresh fruits and vegetables rich in calcium instead.
