... GLOBAL NEWS ... NEWS GOOD-MOOD FOOD IS NO LAUGHING MATTER 3) A majority believe it is possible that the CIA "intentionally permitted Central American drug dealers to sell cocaine to inner-city black children". 4) Sixty per cent believe that the govern- ment is withholding information about Agent Orange and other military abuses in the Vietnam and Gulf wars. 5) Nearly one-half suspect that FBI agents deliberately set the fires that killed 81 Branch Davidians near Waco, Texas, in 1993. 6) After the release of the US Air Force reports stating that the "alien bodies" seen at Roswell in 1947 were actually test dum- mies, more people believed the government is covering up information and technology from "extraterrestrials" than before the Air Force reports. "This is not good," commented Oklahoma Governor Frank Keating. "When we believe that our free institutions can commonly be corrupted to dark and evil purposes, it is a statement of a feeling of helplessness... We are in for some tur- bulent years ahead as a nation." Curtis Gans, the Executive Director for the Washington Committee for the Study of the American Electorate, had this to say about the recent poll: "Paranoia is killing this country. It is essentially reducing cohesion in our society and is creating fear in the minds of our citi- zenry." The 'experts' agree on one thing. It would be extremely difficult, if not impos- sible, to reverse the perception of a good portion of the public of a corrupt, secretive and conspiratorial US Government.

A scheme to insert chemicals into food to make people slimmer is being funded and investigated by British Government-backed scientists. They want to change the structure of food by introduc- ing chemicals such as tryptophan to alter people's moods, make them happier, and therefore, in theory, make them eat less. The ‘happy food' study is being funded by the Medical Research Council (which receives £300 million in state cash per year) and Unilever (producer of Wall's Ice Cream, Birds Eye and Flora products). Critics such as Professor Tim Land, a leading authority on diet, believe the conse- quences could be much more sinister and far-reaching, and warn of an Orwellian nightmare. "This could be a slippery slope," said Prof. Land. "Twenty or 30 years from now, states or companies could be using this technique to exercise mass psychological control—and people will be asking why they were not told in time."

The aim is to ban completely the use of dental amalgam within two years. And in Australia, contrary to the claims made by the Australian Dental Association that amalgam is safe, amalgam manufactur- ers themselves are now acknowledging the intrinsic dangers of this material. For example, Caulk Company, the manu- facturer of Dispersalloy, published the lat- est Materials Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) and Directions For Use (DFU) which includes contraindications to the use of dental amalgam. This places dentists in an interesting legal position. Dentists are obliged to be familiar with information published in MSDSs for the products they use. Ifa patient suffers ill-effects from the product being used in a way which is contrary to the manufacturer's directions, then the den- tist may be liable for the consequences.

Dr Hyland has recently presented research findings that biological systems, including the human body, generate and emit light—an extremely low intensity radiation in the form of microscopic pack- ets of light energy, or photons. These photon emissions are not random but display coherence similar to that of the much more intense light generated by a laser. Dr Hyland believes that the origin of this coherence is the body's own metabo- lism which generates its own coherent elec- tromagnetic field. These very weak emis- sions of light can be viewed as an outward sign of an orderly, functioning metabolism. This research raises serious questions about the effect of external sources of microwave radiation on living tissue and its self-generated electromagnetic patterns.
