The Ultimatum

(CBS News) Can drinking soda cause cancer? A report from the U.S. consumer watchdog The Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI) said popular sodas contain high levels of a chemical that’s used to give cola its caramel coloring – and that chemical could raise a soda-drinkers’ cancer risk.
The consumer watchdog found Coca-Cola, Pepsi-Cola, Dr. Pepper Snapple Group Inc’s Dr. Pepper and Whole Foods’ 365 Cola contained unsafe levels of the coloring Ingredient, 4-methylimidazole or 4-MI. The group estimates the amount of 4-MI in the Coke and Pepsi products tested is causing about 15,000 cancers among the U.S. population, and many times more worldwide. This in addition to heart disease, epilepsy and chronic bone loss caused by aspartame and other ingredients. Continue reading “Coca Cola colouring and sweetener are Cancerogenous”
Ya sabemos que es mentira. La austeridad fiscal no soluciona la crisis, al contrario, al caer la economía sube el interés de la deuda que crece aún más, necesitando cada vez más cortes..
Pero ahora la política de austeridad ha perdido toda credibilidad. El trabajo de investigación clave, que siempre se cita para justificar la represión económica, ha sido totalmente desacreditado. Hablan de un simple ‘error de Excel’ descubierto por un estudiante. MENTIRA PODRIDA. Nos piden creer que un estudio masivamente influyentes por dos profesores de Harvard, usado para justificar cortes de miles de miliones, privatizaciones, paro, desahucios, etc., depende de un error de ‘omitir 5 lineas en una tabla de Excel!?

by Thé Tulloch In many ways, being a gay woman that is also a feminist feels like being the punchline to a bad joke. I am one of those hairy feminists. I am a lesbian: the sweater vest, sensible shoe, cat-loving kind; not the edgy-leather-and-studs-cool-haircut kind. You know, the one you trip over yourself to emphasise you’re not when the subject of your politics comes up, out of fear people think you’ve become a lavender menace. It’s sad that an ideology that concerns itself with the freedom of women from patriarchy is willing to engage in lesbophobia unashamedly.
Dear people,
Imagine, in the UK, 2013, John Major returning to be prime minister. It sounds a bit ridiculous, doesn’t it? Especially if you hypothesise him leading a government of the Conservatives and Labour combined. But in Italy, something like this is likely to happen.
Follow the livestream:
After striking a deal with Berlusconi over the presidency of the republic the Italian ‘Labour’ party is about to jump in bed with the media tycoon’s private political party and nominate Giovanni Amato as prime minister. Amato has already been prime minister of Italy in the 1990s. Continue reading “#ItalianRevolution: ‘false govt must be brought down’”

| Després de la jornada de lluita hi haurà un bingo sobre les varietats tradicionals, licors artesanals, música salsera i ens ensenyaran 4 nocions per no fer el ridícul en els clubs salseros. Durarà depenent de les ganes que tinguem de xerinola. Us adjuntem el cartell per si en voleu fer difusió. |
