"The announcement by mars and other candy producers that "chocolate is good for your heart" applies only to a tiny fraction of the chocolates sold, and therefore is misleading. The health claims made are part of a clever marketing campaign to sell more chocolate of any kind, knowing well that most people buy the cheapest chocolate available. The proclaimed health benefits of chocolate can, however, only be applied to fermented, roasted cocoa beans and the more expensive dark chocolate with mostly natural and healthy ingredients." - Andreas Moritz, Timeless Secrets of Health & Rejuvenation: Unleash The Natural Healing Power That Lies Dormant Within You (Get the book.)

"Even without interplanetary satellites, our understanding of how planets function may be on the verge of a revolution. mars will undoubtedly get the most attention, given the intriguing evidence concerning life there. Already, university researchers are working on novel ideas for moving around the Red Planet, and for improving the technologies for detecting biological activity. Of course, there are potential downsides to increased human activity in space. Within Earth's orbit, more satellites mean more chances for accidents; so-called space junk is already a concern." - Alex Steffen, Worldchanging: A User's Guide for the 21st Century (Get the book.) "It would be appalling if our own carelessness destroyed our chances of learning whether mars has its own native microbes because some earthly extremophile had become the martian equivalent of kudzu. jc Space Elevator ¦¦¦¦¦ Quite possibly the wildest idea for promoting space exploration is the Earth-to-orbit elevator. This is one of those notions that, at first blush, sounds almost too ludicrous to be real. After all, we're accustomed to thinking of rockets as our only way into space —mixing danger and adventure. Taking an elevator into space sounds almost boring." - Alex Steffen, Worldchanging: A User's Guide for the 21st Century (Get the book.)

"With reasonable confidence, I can predict that human beings will eventually land on Mars; but by contrast with the first landing on the moon, I can neither give the date nor name the astronauts involved. What we have just gleaned, from reflection on our ordinary thinking about time, is a set of ideas—about temporal passage, possibility and actuality, causation, freedom, and our knowledge of past and future?that fit together very neatly. They add up to what most people would regard as an intuitively very satisfying picture of the role that time plays in the world as we experience it." - Michael Lockwood, The Labyrinth of Time: Introducing the Universe (Get the book.)

"The American Dietetic Association (ADA) which is supported by a grant from mars, Inc. has a section on their website entitled, "Chocolate: Facts and Fiction." Although dietary sugar intake is a big factor for the millions of people who have type 2 diabetes or peripatetic conditions, the ADA advices, "If you have diabetes, ask your health professional how to incorporate chocolate into your eating plan." This sounds like "sound" medical advice. I would stay away from any of the ADA's dietary advice. You never know what kind of sickness you may develop because of it." - Andreas Moritz, Timeless Secrets of Health & Rejuvenation: Unleash The Natural Healing Power That Lies Dormant Within You (Get the book.)

"Why did Venus fall victim to a runaway greenhouse effect, while mars dried up? Why did Earth alone manage to emerge from its early uninhabitable "ice-ball" period with the potential to support life? We can speculate, but on-site exploration will give us far better answers than will remote theorizing. Given the potential disasters associated with climate change, these are not idle questions. The better we understand how similar planets work, the better we understand our own planetology. There are myriad connections between space research and green issues." - Alex Steffen, Worldchanging: A User's Guide for the 21st Century (Get the book.)

"The Earth-bound controller actually sends information that animates the Mariner on mars. But the information is not a one-way street. The NASA controller also learns from the lander, because the vehicle transmits information about its mars experiences back to Earth. The NASA controller interprets the information about the lander's experiences and then applies that new awareness to better navigate the Martian terrain. You and I are like "Earth landers" who receive information from an environmental controller/Spirit." - Bruce H. Lipton, The Biology Of Belief: Unleashing The Power Of Consciousness, Matter And Miracles (Get the book.)

"A whole subcategory of nutritional science—funded by industry and, according to one recent analysis,* remarkably reliable in its ability to find a health benefit in whatever food it has been commissioned to study—has sprung up to give a nutritionist sheen—(and FDA-approved health claim) to all sorts of foods, including some not ordinarily thought of as healthy." - Michael Pollan, In Defense of Food: An Eater's Manifesto (Get the book.)

"You also see mars, once an abode for life with its abundant liquid water lakes, streams and oceans, along with an atmosphere several times thicker. Now mars is a parched world with an evaporated atmosphere. Where had all the water gone? No liquid water is left, only the occasional winter and polar ice patch, along with a trace left as vapor. Carbon dioxide is the only gas that is left in any significant amount in the Martian atmosphere, now over a hundred times thinner than Earth's. Do the Earthbound scientists know, or do they want to know, what really happened to mars?" - Brian O'Leary, Reinheriting the Earth: Awakening to Sustainable Solutions and Greater Truths (Get the book.)

"In 1974, the Soviets made the first attempt to land on mars, but the spaceprobe crashed onto the planet. In 1976, however, two US spacecraft, Viking 1 and 2, landed on mars. They did not find life, but Viking 1 broadcast data about its vicinity until May, 1983, long after its expected "life." On March 2, 1971, the United States launched Pioneer 10 on a mission designed to go beyond mars. It was one of the most successful missions ever. In 1973, Pioneer 10 flew by Jupiter, providing data on its magnetic field and its moons. Then it just kept going." - Alexander Hellemans and Brian Bunch, The Timetables of Science: A Chronology of the Most Important People and Events in the History of Science (Get the book.)

"But what does the motion of Venus and mars have to do with sections of a cone? Closer to home, in the 1960s my mathematician friend Victor Kac investigated a class of intricate mathematical structures now known as Kac-Moody algebras. His only motivation was his nose, which told him that the structures smelled interesting and could yield some beautiful mathematics. No one could have predicted that in a couple of decades these algebras would play a major role in string theory. These examples are not exceptions." - Alex Vilenkin, Many Worlds in One: The Search for Other Universes (Get the book.)

"For thoughts command when people reach, Outward towards the stars, And it was thought which dropped the probe, Onto the surface of mars. It was thought that ruled, When the druids built Astronomic Temples of stone and clay. This is the testimony of the ancients: And the logic of today. And thoughts direct when empires sink, In storms of steel and flame. And it is by thought alone That seeds are sown — And it will always be the same. The powerful thoughts Of those who act, Rush forth to fill the mass, Of thoughtless minds Who should invest their lives, Growing gardens instead of grass." - David Wolfe, The Sunfood Diet Success System (Get the book.)

"Of course, the study was sponsored by a chocolate producer, mars candy company, which was so generous to also supply the chocolates for the "study." If the study has any real value, why didn't the researchers announce that flavonoids, as found in most plant foods, such as broccoli and fruits, grape juice and, yes, also chocolate, are beneficial for your arteries? But no, they were obliged by their sponsors to announce that "chocolate is beneficial for your arteries." - Andreas Moritz, Timeless Secrets of Health & Rejuvenation: Unleash The Natural Healing Power That Lies Dormant Within You (Get the book.)

"Even though doctors and patients may seem to be as distant from each other as mars is from Venus, they are locked in a partnership that goes infinitely deeper than anything the pharmaceutical industry can ever hope to achieve. Doctors have to believe in the medicines they prescribe but patients only have to believe in the doctots. In truth, they don't even have to believe in their doctors; but they do have to believe in something." - Jacky Law, Big Pharma: Exposing the Global Healthcare Agenda (Get the book.)

"Finally on July 14, 1965, the US spaceprobe Mariner IV passed close to mars. In 1969, two more US spaceprobes made flybys of the red planet. But 1971 was a banner year that saw two Soviet and one US spacecraft in orbit about mars, transmitting data, including television pictures, back to Earth. At first it seemed that nothing would be learned from orbiting mars, since it was impossible to see much through the atmosphere. Later it was found that the orbiting probes had arrived during a giant dust storm." - Alexander Hellemans and Brian Bunch, The Timetables of Science: A Chronology of the Most Important People and Events in the History of Science (Get the book.)

"In 2001 mars purchased Royal Canin in France, further expanding its international reach and consolidating its lead in the European pet food marker. Royal Canin produces a line of dry cat and dog foods, Natural Blend, Sensible Choice, Excel, and Kasco.3 Heinz, the ketchup maker, is also well known within the pet food industry. It produces Gravy Train, 9 Lives, Cycle, Kibbles n Bits, Reward, and Skippy. In 1996 Heinz acquired two pet food companies, one in Canada and the other in the United States." - Ann N.

"We've put men on the moon; we've put a robot on Mars; we've positioned a camera near Saturn. We've beaten back polio and smallpox. We've launched the Internet. You will never convince me that diseases cannot be cured. But until corporate America is called to task, until mankind matters more than money, cures will remain illusive.. .always just five years down the road.

"The mars and Venus atmosphere is 98% C02, and with the sun getting hotter (30%overits origin), Silica may protect plants from solar radiation on mars. Near the sea, bacteria produce white hydrogen sulfide; pink bacteria use hydrogen sulfide; and green psyannobacteriaproduce Oxygen. There was one-third less C02 20,000 years ago (greenhouse gas) from more sea life drawing more C02 from the atmosphere." - Joseph E.

"HERBS: A Tea for Healing Parched Skin Herbalists call certain herbs mucilaginous, meaning that they have soothing and anti-inflammatory qualities—qualities that can help heal dry skin, says Brigitte mars, an herbalist and nutritional consultant in Boulder, Colorado. Here's her formula for making a tea using four of the best mucilaginous herbs for dry skin: marshmallow root, fennel seed, plantain, and violet leaves. Combine 1 part each of marshmallow root and fennel seed, then add a heaping teaspoon of the mixture to 1 quart of water and boil for 20 minutes." - Bill Gottlieb, Alternative Cures: The Most Effective Natural Home Remedies for 160 Health Problems (Get the book.)

"The Roman poet Claudian left a fascinating description of some famous effigies of Venus and mars, most likely housed at a temple in his home town of Alexandria. The beautiful statue of Venus was carved from a large piece of lodestone, while that of the warrior god mars was made of pure iron. During festivals the two figures were introduced to each other on a nuptial couch spread with roses; to the accompaniment of music they were brought steadily closer until mars leaped forward to clasp his lover in a magnetic embrace. The use of magnetism in such temple wizardry was developed further." - Peter James, Nick Thorpe, Ancient Inventions (Get the book.)

"They tend to have a strong, acrid flavor, a pungent aroma, prickles and thorns, a conical tap root, and red coloring; they also tend to grow under adverse conditions and are often biennials. mars also governs plants that look like seaweeds yet are pioneers on land, such as lichens. Jupiter Jupiter is said to be warm and moist. It is associated with adventure, social order, morals, and optimism." - Brigitte mars, A.H.G., The Desktop Guide to Herbal Medicine: The Ultimate Multidisciplinary Reference to the Amazing Realm of Healing Plants, in a Quick-study, One-stop Guide (Get the book.)

"He's led to believe that every new day is as detached from the last as mars is from Jupiter. He is not supposed to notice that they both revolve around the same star and repeat the same cycles over and over until the crack of doom. Taking the regulators at their word, he sees the planets in the heavens and sees no reason to think they will ever be anywhere other than where they are right now. The lumpen investor looks at the prices on Wall Street or those of houses in his neighborhood. Those, too, must be permanent, he reckons." - William Bonner, Lila Rajiva, Mobs, Messiahs, and Markets: Surviving the Public Spectacle in Finance and Politics (Agora Series) (Get the book.)

"In addition to M&M mars company, the corporate sponsors of the FNB report also included major food and drug companies that would benefit from higher protein and sugar allowances.2 The Dannon Institute, a leading dairy-based consortium promoting its own brand of nutrition information, and the International Life Sciences Institute (ILSI), which is a front group for about fifty food, supplement and drug companies, both contributed funding for the FNB report. Corporate members include Coca-Cola, Taco Bell, Burger King, Nestle, Pfizer and Roche Vitamins." - T. Colin Campbell, Ph.D. and Thomas M.

"He sees mars heading out into space and he imagines himself going where no man has ever gone before ... when, actually, he never left home. OMNES GENTES ALLELUIA Without history, the investor is lost. Even with it, you have to be suspicious of what people say to you, even when they call them facts. More important, you have to be suspicious of what you say to yourself! As we said, the older we get, the less we know about anything; the more facts, opinions, and ideas we collect, the less sure we are of any of them. Besides, we get more and more experience with facts that turn out not to be so." - William Bonner, Lila Rajiva, Mobs, Messiahs, and Markets: Surviving the Public Spectacle in Finance and Politics (Agora Series) (Get the book.)

"It works for: Conoco, Grand Metropolitan Retail, Kingfisher Leisure, Marks and Spencer, mars Confectionery, the Ministry of Defence and the Sugar Bureau. In the case of the work for HRT Aware, any pretence of independence was purely token, because the whole project was paid for by Wyeth and other pharmaceutical companies. For the British project, The RED Consultancy lined up 'desirable media spokespeople', and their Choices Campaign booklet featured side bars with support from science journalist and broadcaster Judith Harm32 and, again, women's health specialist Dr Annie Evans." - Martin J.

"Under Ronald Reagan, America's debt seemed on course for mars. Less than $1 trillion in 1980, it soared to $2.7 trillion before Reagan left office. One might have expected some relief after the Cold War was over. But the habit of debt is hard to break. By the time George W. Bush took office, the debt had risen to $5.7 trillion. Mr. Bush, a conservative, might have seized the opportunity to pay down the debt. The nation was at peace and expected huge budget surpluses. He promised as much when he stood before a joint session of Congress in 2001 and announced his budget." - William Bonner, Addison Wiggin, Empire of Debt: The Rise of an Epic Financial Crisis (Get the book.)

"M&M mars candy company and a consortium of soft drink companies. Is it possible that the U.S. group felt an obligation to these sugar companies? Incidentally, the sugar industry, in their fight against the WHO conclusion, has relied heavily7 on the FNB report with its 25% limit. In other words, the FNB committee produces a friendly recommendation for the sugar industry which then turns around and uses this finding to support its claim against the WHO report. THE INFLUENCE OF INDUSTRY This discussion still leaves unanswered the question of how industry develops such extraordinary influence." - T. Colin Campbell, Ph.D. and Thomas M.
