I'm not going to make her the thirteenth doctor in my unintended series -yet. But. as I find out more details, as they say she was "alone" when she lost her footing, I will update you.

Dr. Jamie Zimmerman was alone when she allegedly slipped and died in Hawaii.

She was a famous author and holistic MD.

Here is her bio straight from Huffington Post (who she wrote for frequently)
Jamie Zimmerman, M.D. is a physician, meditation teacher and author who lectures internationally on "meditation medicine" and living your calling. A meditator since age 16, Jamie has had the privilege of studying with many of today's leading instructors, teaches in Spanish and English, and offers free guided meditations at www.jamiez.tv. Her voice has been featured on ABC.com, Yahoo News, MindBodyGreen, and The Huffington Post. Passionate about global health, Jamie has lived and worked around the globe - from Belize, Haiti and the Thai/Burma border to Congolese refugee camps and the Amazon rainforest. She believes that healing - on the individual and global level - happens from the inside out. In this vein, she recently organized and hosted a "Unite for Peace" event with bestselling author Marianne Williamson in New York City. As a teenager, Jamie performed on such shows as 7th Heaven, Boston Public and The Practice. She is currently a medical journalist at ABC National News. Outside of work, she loves spending time in nature, exploring museums, yoga classes, cafes, and live music with friends.
From the article:
Shocked ABC News staffers are mourning the tragic death of a doctor and reporter from the network's medical unit who drowned while on vacation in Hawaii.

Jamie Zimmerman, 31, was apparently alone when she lost her footing while trying to cross the Lumahai River on Kauai's north shore and was swept out to sea around 4 p.m. Monday.

Comment: ABC News Doctor Jamie Zimmerman has died:

"Lumahai can be dangerous for those unfamiliar with the area, particularly during the winter when surf is up on the North Shore, Blane said. However, there were no flash flood or high surf advisories on this day. While rescuers have responded to incidents there, there has not been a major incident in that area in recent memory, she said."


We are making a video now and again, will provide any more details as they emerge.

Our hearts go out to her friends and family.

Comment: Considering the vehemence and aggressiveness with which the medical-pharmaceutical-regulatory cartel are enacting a world-wide push for vaccination; the similar pattern of deaths of microbiologists and other scientists in recent years; and the plethora of facts around the lengths that the vaccine and medical industry will go to in order to cover up their agenda, there is a strong sense of malevolence surrounding the recent deaths of these physicians.

7,500 French police protest the shooting of a fellow officer by a radicalized inmate on temp leave

French police stand behind labor union banners as they protest near the Justice Ministry in Paris, France, October 14, 2015.
  • The biggest showing of discontent within the French police since 1983
  • Police are suffering more at the hands of violent criminals
  • The police are not doing well, have not been paid for a total of 20 million hours of overtime.
Thousands of French police officers staged a protest in Paris on Wednesday, demonstrating against a lack of resources, rising violence, and an ineffective justice system. Other protests took place in front of courthouses across the country. At least 5,000 officers waved union flags and flares which produced orange, black, and white smoke in front of France's Ministry of Justice in Place Vendome, the Local reported. France 24 put the number of participants at 7,500.
The demonstration in front of the Ministry of Justice was prompted after an officer was shot in the head and critically wounded earlier this month by a reportedly radicalized inmate who had been granted temporary leave from prison earlier in 2015, but never returned. The crowd fell silent as a speaker addressed the justice minister in the name of the injured officer. The sound of police sirens and whistles then erupted.
The officers on Wednesday criticized France's police system, which they consider to be dysfunctional, claiming that punishments are too lenient and that prisoners are too often allowed to leave jail. "When we arrest people, we want them to remain behind bars," said Laurent Diedrich of the Paris-area SCSI-CFDT police union, as quoted by AP.

Comment: Since the events of Charlie Hebdo, officers and security guards have monitored and stood guard at local "sensitive sites," apparently without pay, with increased security measures pushing police vigilance and resources to the breaking point. They are angry.

Rhode Island cops arrest, pepper spray high school students gathered to protest police brutality

Eight students and two adults were placed under arrest, with some being pepper-sprayed following a protest outside of Pawtucket City Hall, Rhode Island. The protest was sparked by a video of a security guard slamming a student to the ground during a scuffle.

About 200 students took part in the protest Thursday, which was staged in response to a video that was posted online Wednesday, which purportedly showed a security guard slamming a student from Tolman High School to the floor, according to WPRI.


The incident occurred after a school security guard arrested a 14-year-old boy who was shouting profanities and threatening to fight another student, police said. The boy's 17-year-old brother tried to intervene and pushed the guard, prompting both boys to attack the officer, with one of them striking him in the face.

The older brother was floored by the guard, with the guard then using a takedown maneuver on the younger one, according to police. A large group of students formed outside the guard's office during the struggle while teachers and staff tried to keep them under control.

This led to a demonstration of about 100 students at the school which began around 8:00am on Thursday which was initially peaceful, but erupted into chaos after a fire alarm went off in the school, leading to students being evacuated.

Is the outrage against the TPP a tipping point for ensuring access to medicines?

cost of drugs TTP
Earlier this month, the representatives of the Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement (TPPA) parties announced they had concluded five years of negotiations by agreeing to final terms.

Simply put, the TPPA is designed to block the sick and the poor from accessing affordable generic and biosimilar medicines. If the TPPA is ultimately approved by its member nations, it will enshrine a billions-over-millions trade-off: billions of dollars in profits will be made by patent-holding pharmaceutical corporations, and millions of people will needlessly suffer and die.

But the legislative bodies of those member nations, including the U.S. Congress, have not yet signed off on the deal. And many are facing significant pressure not to. That pressure provides an historic opportunity for advocates to not just scuttle a bad trade deal, but to elevate the human right to health.

As it stands, the TPPA is a certifiably deadly weapon. The final terms include multiple provisions that extend both the scope and length of patent protections. For example, the agreement guarantees market exclusivity for patented biologic drugs for at least five years in all TPPA countries, and likely eight years of de facto exclusion of more affordable versions. Biologic drugs are produced using living systems such as bacteria, or plant and animal cells, and have been particularly effective in response to cancer.

Under current law, the poorest of the TPPA countries, including Malaysia, Mexico, Peru and Vietnam, do not grant monopoly protection for biologic drugs. But the TPPA terms will compel them to do so within just a few years, despite the deadly impact that higher drug prices will inevitably have on their low-income population. The TPPA also sanctions "evergreening" of patented medicines at the national level, a process where barriers to generics are extended when new patents are granted for altered uses or methods of existing medicines

The $1500 chicken sandwich proves why most people will not survive a collapse

chicken sandwich
A humorous video posted recently on YouTube is not only good for laughs, but also serves to illustrate the fact that self-reliant living is not as easy as some people might imagine.

In the video, which has already amassed over two million views, a guy named Taylor Lewin successfully makes a chicken sandwich from scratch — but it takes him six months and ends up costing around $1500 to produce.

Lewin has produced a series of videos showing how he takes ordinary items that we take for granted and attempts to make them from scratch. In the caption of the chicken sandwich video, he writes:

"I spent 6 months and $1500 to completely make a sandwich from scratch. Including growing my own vegetables, making my own salt from ocean water, milking a cow to make cheese, grinding my own flour from wheat, collecting my own honey and killing a chicken myself."

Televangelist Pat Robertson tells his viewers to have faith instead of medical procedures while he chooses surgery

Televangelist Pat Robertson was asked on Oct. 15 by a viewer on "The 700 Club" why he undergoes medical surgeries, but tells others that God can heal them by faith (video below).

Robertson struggled to answer the question, notes RightWingWatch.org:
Listen I want you to know something. I don't think that religion, faith and medicine are necessarily enemies. I think that godly people are used by God to come forth with healing techniques that alleviate sickness and suffering and so forth.

I've been simply amazed at the wonders that the medical profession can perform. So you say, "How come you didn't pray that something would get taken way?' Well the Lord might say, "You prayed and go to see that doctor and he'll take the mole off your chin or something."

But I don't know what else to say. You know, if you have enough faith, maybe I don't have enough, but I have enough for other people, but for myself I think I did the right thing.

An American in Donbass: The MH17 report that should have been

Russell Bentley
The Dutch cover up report on MH17 comes out on Monday. Of course, I have not read the final draft yet, because the contents are secret, but I know bullshit when I smell it, and I can smell it all the way from Amsterdam. I do not have to read it to know it is a lie. But I will, and it will be. How can I be so sure? Because I know what happened, I have been told by an eyewitness. But even before that, all the circumstantial evidence really puts the answer beyond any reasonable doubt. And when the Dutch publish their lies on Monday, I expect the Russians will reply with the truth, and with their proof. In the meantime, let's consider what we already know...

There are already far too many discrepancies for any serious person to give the Dutch "report" any credence, regardless of what it says. If this report was not a cover up, if it actually was concerned with the truth, instead of just being a cover up of an obvious false flag, it would have come out at least a year ago, rather than 16 months after the fact. Why do you think it took so long?

Whistle

Oh, the irony! Whistleblower Protection Program worker fired for blowing the whistle

whistleblower
Earlier this year, Darrel Whitman decided to sound the alarm over the dysfunction he had seen while working for OSHA. He was employed with the Whistleblower Protection Program within OSHA, and investigated claims of illegal activity and safety issues among workers. But after revealing that his department managers closed complaints to alleviate backlogs, altered reports, and failed to protect workers who complained, he was fired. In other words, a worker for a department dedicated to protecting whistleblowers, has been fired for blowing the whistle.

Whitman told NBC news that "They got rid of the squeaky wheel" before adding "I was going to report what I thought to be violations of law and policy...they were going to have to answer to those reports and they didn't like that." In fact, Whitman was featured on the Daily Show with John Stewart several months ago, and admitted that he was going to be fired if the interview was ever aired. OSHA cited 6 different reasons for his termination, including "lack of candor during an investigatory meeting" and releasing government documents without permission (i.e. exactly the sort of thing a whistleblower has to do).

Personal injury law firms gearing up for mass tort actions against Monsanto claiming it knew glyphosate was toxic

roundup
Personal injury law firms around the United States are lining up plaintiffs for what they say could be "mass tort" actions against agrichemical giant Monsanto Co that claim the company's Roundup herbicide has caused cancer in farm workers and others exposed to the chemical.

The latest lawsuit was filed Wednesday in Delaware Superior Court by three law firms representing three plaintiffs.

The lawsuit is similar to others filed last month in New York and California accusing Monsanto of long knowing that the main ingredient in Roundup, glyphosate, was hazardous to human health." the lawsuit states.

The litigation follows the World Health Organization's declaration in March that there was sufficient evidence to classify glyphosate as "probably carcinogenic to humans."

Comment: There is now an enormous cache of evidence on both scientific and legal grounds that Monsanto in fact conducted numerous studies in the 1970s and 1980s on glyphosate's toxicity and health risks and intentionally sealed this research from independent and public review and scrutiny.

Has the United States lost its collective mind?: Top selling drug is antipsychotic

Image

From Ferguson, Missouri to the deserts of Afghanistan the specter of US aggression is fueling the flames of civil strife and military conflict around an increasingly volatile planet. Much of the problem may be connected to the breakdown of the American psyche.

Before attempting to shed some light on America's mental condition, let's open with a pop quiz question: What is the top-selling prescription drug in the US? Nope, it's not Viagra, not Prozac, forget the Percocet. If you don't know, take a peek in the medicine cabinet because there's a high chance it's lurking in there, right behind that purple people eater. Yes, you got it. The top-selling drug in the Land of the Free and Disturbed is an antipsychotic, happily named Abilify.

Once again: The top-selling drug in America is an antipsychotic. Now some might say that's mental.

Comment: While pharmaceuticals aren't the only problem Americans face, nor even the cause of the general insanity that's swept the nation, it should be extremely alarming that so many Americans are on psychotropic drugs. At the very least, they have reduced psychological and emotional health along with physical health from the "side" effects of the drug, as well as being dependent upon a pharmaceutical to be functional human beings. But worse than that, they've turned away from reality, and no problems can be solved - in fact, nothing positive can be done - without dealing with actual reality.

Even worse than that is the potential for a quickening of psychological disintegration from cosmic influences.
