patrice apodaca is saying, that if one believes that declining vaccinations because of their toxic ingredients is to believe in " cockroaches". patrice apodaca's used cockroach 4 times to demean, dehumanize those who have read the science and declined vaccinations, to be no better than cockroaches. patrice apodaca and the LA Times are laying the groundwork just like the Hutus did against the Tutsis. From a 2014 NY Times article: For genocide to occur, it must be preceded by the dehumanisation of a group. To dehumanise means to deny the humanity of someone, reducing them to sub-humans. ....... .Tutsis were now called inyenzi (cockroach). The term became ingrained in the public sphere as almost every single Kangura edition, hate radio RTLM and outspoken politicians claiming to defend Hutu power referred to human beings as cockroaches. In Kangura, issue 40, the editorial title said it all: “A cockroach cannot bring forth a butterfly.” The editorial argued that the Tutsi, like a cockroach, use the cover of darkness to infiltrate; “the Tutsi camouflages himself to commit crimes.” https://www.newtimes.co.rw/section/read/73836

This jumped off the page--"highly coordinated care tailored". Yep we tailor autism to make it look good, inviting. AND we are real good at it. In fact, we have excellent tailors, just what the autism epidemic needs. We don't care why, we're just tailors.

Natalie, a word to the wise--do not let your baby out of your sight. There are standing orders which you may not be aware which will put your wishes and directives secondary to the entrenched dogmas of hospitals and medical personnel. Do not let your baby out of your sight.

Two things: First, the two women who cornered Senator Jeff Flake in elevator got my attention. Second, what if men and women cornered the 37 House cosponsors of H.Res.327 https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/house-resolution/327/cosponsors?q=%7B%22search%22%3A%5B%22vaccine%22%5D%7D&r=2. Yes look them in the eye have them tell you it didn't happen. 11 of 37 are women (about a third) and are D's (Deniers) 4 of the 37 are Republican. (Maybe these R's flourish in the swamp?) The majority (33) are science deniers. Yes confront them in the elevator--ask them to look you in the eye and tell you it didn't happen.

The Disappeared--this how they will make the great poisoning disappear. Manipulate and deny the numbers.

Cia, you make my brain hurt or feel heart pain from Daniel Greenfield's article. "immigration policy often leads to extremely serious, negative consequences for the indigenous population". I couldn't help but think of the negative consequences to Native Americans when Europeans arrived. I have no good answers, but thank you for making me think!

Powerful Words that can only be written by someone gravely wounded, not by life, but by lies. Your truth speaks powerfully to those who deny it didn't happen! Forever thankful!

CP--"before we lose [the] freedom of speech," when so many children have lost the ability to speak.

And furthermore--NPR--National Pharma Radio and PBS are the worst!! I know Dan Olmstead wrote an excellent piece on "what happened to my beloved NPR?" I can't find it, but NPR and PBS should get no funding from taxpayers since the get so much money from the corporate and special interest and those two networks are a disgrace.

Now is the time for good Age of Autism readers to come to the aid of all those who have been denied justice by the Department of [in]justice. Kennedy talks about writing various Senate Committees, but I can't find a link. I'm sure it will show up. Nhokkanen: "The journalism community is an incestuous band of altruists and opportunists." This so called journalism community can best be described as the ones who pushed women and children aside to get on the Titianic's life boats as it was sinking. They have blood on their hands.

Grace, The reason RFK jr et al chose the name they did was due to the fact that "All Governments Lie" was already in use. Given that pharma and the chemical industry have so much influence in government to the point the bureaucracies like the FDA, CDC, EPA, FCC all serve those corporate interests, the those interests are now a form of government known as a Corporatocracy. I'm curious Grace, what name would you have selected that would have included everyone whose ill-health at whatever age, could be attributable to collective behaviors of medical associations and corporations who put profits above safety. We may need to have coffee over this discussion.

As the news reports the number of first responders who have fallen ill from breathing dust at ground zero, let's not forget this press release: September 18, 2001 -EPA Administrator Christine Todd Whitman: "Given the scope of the tragedy from last week, I am glad to reassure the people of New York and Washington, DC that their air is safe to breathe and their water is safe to drink."² https://www.ucsusa.org/our-work/center-science-and-democracy/promoting-scientific-integrity/ground-zero-air-pollution.html#.W5f3H_ZlBPY We have been assured: Agent orange is safe, glyphosate is safe, hydrofluorosilicic acid in your water is safe, injected thimerasol safe, injected aluminum is safe. Its funny how all this safe stuff is making people ill. When the government declares something safe--what should you do? This might be a lol type question.

@Aimee, I was fortunate that the homeopath I stumbled on (probably with some divine intervention) and her training found the right remedy (the third one). I remember asking the homeopath, "what if this doesn't work" and the response was find a different homeopath. I will query my homeopath with what you have provided and just see what comes back. I also see the foundation cracking--I can almost hear it faint as it is. Keep the faith!!

Aimee, Justice Breyer concurring in Brusewitz https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/10pdf/09-152.pdf page 26 references "Impact of Anti-Vaccine Movement on Pertussis Control". It is clear that the majority opinion that parents should be willing to sacrifice their children to this religion of vaccinations that was sanctified in Bruesewitz and furthermore all forms of due process should be forever denied to protect the religion. "Walking on knees" made me curious so I looked in my Kent's Repertory of the Homeopathic Materia Medica under MIND;Delusions; walk--that he walks on his knees. I am not suggesting a remedy here, but it did get my attention. I didn't have time to look under mind "stay young" but I am thinking that a very good homeopath might be able to work with the symptoms you have provided. Was there an opportunity to try homeopathy with your son?

My hope there is a Part 3 where the doors are burst open and those incarcerated are set free. Thanks Teresa!

Kim, If money were no object, I would pay for your whole family to walk the halls of Congress and show our elected representatives what autism in America looks like. Show them the tax dollars which the IACC has misspent making sure that there is no funding for prevention or cures. Let them hear from a different type of Gold Star Family.

Eindecker back to August 17th on glyphosate in breast milk, lets just say the "overweight lady" is still deciding what she wants to sing. This recent announcement: https://www.telesurtv.net/english/news/Brazil-Poisonous-Agrotoxin-Found-Over-80-of-Breast-Milk-Samples-in-Urucui-20180809-0008.html. At the bottom is google translate of the abstract from Portuguese to English. The detection method used HPLC. Beyond that, it it is going to be self-explanatory because it is way beyond my pay grade. Also from reading--glyphosate becomes embedded in protein and can be left undetected if not freed up from the peptide chain. This can be accomplished using enzymes. From the Samsel Seneff paper: "In 1989, Monsanto researchers conducted an experiment on exposure of bluegill sunfish to 14C-radiolabeled glyphosate [89]. One of us (Samsel) obtained the (unpublished) report from the EPA through the Freedom of Information Act. The researchers had found that, with EDTA extraction, the amount of radiolabel in tissue samples was much higher than the amount of detected glyphosate. They decided to apply a digestive enzyme, proteinase K, and discovered that this “caused a substantial improvement in extractability”. It brought the yield from 17–20% in the case of EDTA to 57–70% following digestion with proteinase K. They summed up as follows: “Proteinase K hydrolyses proteins to amino acids and small oligopeptides, suggesting that a significant portion of the 14C activity residing in the bluegill sunfish tissue was tightly associated with or INCORPORATED INTO PROTEIN” (present authors’ emphasis). In this context it is important to recall that a 60- to 120-fold higher detection level of BMAA was obtained following protein hydrolysis of contaminated proteins [84]." The Washington State Univ. study likely missed what was present by not using an extraction process to free up glyphosate or its metabolite. Abstract: ABSTRACT: Glyphosate is the pesticide with the highest potential risk to human health because it is the most commercialized in the world, in Brazil and in Piauí. Based on this reality, this study aimed to evaluate the contamination of maternal milk by glyphosate agrotoxic in puerperas attended at public maternity hospitals in Piauí. We adopted a cross-sectional descriptive and cross-sectional study design applied in the municipalities of Teresina with 164 participants, Oeiras with 27 and Uruçuí with 13 participants. A method of laboratory analysis of the samples of breast milk applied to the technique of high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to ultraviolet radiation detection diode, through the derivatization reaction of glyphosate and its metabolite aminomethylphosphonic acid by 9-fluorenylmethyl chloroformate. After experimental tests, the method chosen for the analysis of breast milk samples was the isocratic gradient using the solvent acetonitrile 10%. It was tested in triplicate and the presence of glyphosate and aminomethylphosphonic acid in chromatographic peaks in the range of 263 nanometers (nm), with a correlation coefficient (r) equal to 0.9993, calibration and confirmation of its efficiency and linearity. Analysis of breast milk samples was limited to the detection of both substances. A total of 62.5% of the samples collected in Oeiras and Uruçuí were detected, with 64% of them being glyphosate or aminomethylphosphonic acid. When disaggregating by municipality, contamination was verified in 46.1% and 83.4% of samples analyzed from Oeiras and Uruçuí, respectively. It was concluded that the contamination of the mother's milk by the agrotoxic glyphosate was high, proving its severity and importance as a risk factor for the health of the woman and the child. ABSTRACT: Glyphosate is a herbicide with the greatest potential risk to human health because it is the most commercialized in the world, in Brazil and in the State of Piauí. Based on this reality, this study aimed to evaluate the contamination of maternal milk by glyphosate agrotoxic in puerperas attended at public maternity hospitals in Piauí. We adopted a descriptive correlational study of cross-sectional applied in the municipalities of Teresina with 164 participants, Oeiras with 27 and Uruçuí with 13 participants. We developed a method of laboratory analysis of the samples of breast milk applied to the technique of high-performance liquid chromatography coupled photodiode detector array, through the derivatization reaction of glyphosate and its metabolite aminomethylphosphonic acid by 9-fluorenylmethyl chloroformate. After experimental tests the chosen method for the analysis of the samples of breast milk was the isocratic gradient using the acetonitrile solvent to 10%. It was tested in triplicate and when passing through the detector we verified the presence of glyphosate and aminomethylphosphonic acid in chromatographic peaks in the range of 263 nanometers (nm), with correlation coefficient (r) equal to 0.9993, which led to the construction of the calibration curve and confirmation of its efficiency and linearity. Analysis of breast milk samples was limited to the detection of both substances. A total of 62.5% of the samples collected in Oeiras and Uruçuí were analyzed, where we detected presence of glyphosate or aminomethylphosphonic acid in 64% of them. When disaggregating by municipality, contamination was verified in 46.1% and 83.4% of samples analyzed from Oeiras and Uruçuí, respectively. We concluded this study by showing the high contamination of the breast milk by glyphosate agrotoxic, proving its severity and importance as a risk factor for the woman's health. Comments made in the interest of science.

Is anybody having trouble with the on-line donation working specifically when entering the expiration date?

Gary, its the same deliberate deception with percentage caries reductions attributed to fluoridation. The CDC, dentists use percent reductions which inflate fluoridation's value when its absolute differences that tell the truthful story of how ineffective fluoridation is: "In the largest dental study in the United States, for example, the average difference in tooth decay was just 0.6 tooth surfaces, which is less than 1% of the 100+ tooth surfaces in a child’s mouth. (Brunelle & Carlos 1990). Studies from Australia have found even less flattering results, with one large study finding no difference in DMFS, and others finding differences of just 0.12 to 0.3 tooth surfaces. (Spencer 1996). ....." http://fluoridealert.org/studies/caries02/

Got ahead of myself-- How are the "95% CI for difference" values established?

Anybody care to explain how in " Test and CI for Two Proportions" where the numbers

Lets be clear--Dewayne Johnson's killer is not only Monsanto, but the EPA who colluded, conspired with Monsanto to kill Mr. Johnson. It is Dr. Lorelei Mucci , of the Harvard School of Public Health, the go to for Monsanto (and other toxic, poisonous industries) looking for an alibi (and paid handsomely) to vouch that Monsanto was no where near the crime scene when Mr. Johnson was repeatedly and with malice poisoned. Lets just be real damn clear!

Kim, the photo breaks my heart, but it also outrages me. 18 years and "they" have ignored you and your daughters. Broken children; broken families; broken lives; broken policies; broken government; broken institutions; broken trust; broken hearts.

Linda, pediatricians will never earn the right to be off-leash when their medical training is so sloppy, grounded in pharma dogma; not good science or good health.

Sunday's Dr. Fox--American Government Undermines World Health. Further in the column, Dr. Fox states the premise; that if you have to ask the question the answer is already known. https://www.uexpress.com/animal-doctor/2018/8/5/american-government-undermines-world-health DEAR READERS: Andrew Jacobs, in his July 9 New York Times article “Opposition to Breast-feeding Resolution by U.S. Stuns World Health Officials,” reports that “the U.S. delegation, embracing the interests of infant formula manufacturers, upended deliberations” at a United Nations-affiliated World Health Assembly of hundreds of global government delegates. The topic was a resolution, based on decades of research, ”that mother’s milk is healthiest for children, and countries should strive to limit the inaccurate or misleading marketing of breast milk substitutes.” Countries such as Ecuador were threatened with punishing trade measures and withdrawal of U.S. military aid if they did not withdraw the resolution. So can ”we the people” in the United States trust government regulatory agencies when it comes to other matters? These include the safety and efficacy of vaccines for our children and pets; the risks of pesticides on the crops that we and farmed animals consume; and the quality and safety of manufactured pet foods and baby foods. Trust, transparency and accountability are the hallmarks of democracy and corporate responsibility. Such an exhibition of U.S. pandering to, and bullying for, corporate interests at this international world health gathering gives new credence to the term “ugly American.” It is up to us, the people, to make America first in ethics, honesty, justice and compassion -- rather than a nation of corporate hegemony and corruption.
