Farmers Sue Monsanto Over Crop Contamination
Monsanto, you see, has a long and evil history of suing farmers whose crops were contaminated with GMOs. Monsanto calls that a “theft” of intellectual property. Organic farming groups are attempting a unique legal strategy of preemptively suing Monsanto so that they won’t be blamed for “pirating” patented seeds that happen to blow onto their non-GMO crop fields. http://www.naturalnews.com/031922_Monsanto_lawsuit.html
105 Year Old Street Car Film Footage
This is a fascinating movie taken in ‘Frisco just before the earthquake. A camera was mounted on the front of a street car. Some of the cars had steering wheels on the right side. I wonder when they standardised on the left? Sure were still a lot of horse drawn vehicles in use. Mass transit looked like the way to get around. Looks like everybody had the right of way.
Watch the beginning carefully. At the 33 second mark and immediately after an oncoming trolley clears the screen, a well dressed policeman walks across the street from left to right. Notice his right hand that he’s carrying a truncheon (26 inch police baton) and although he appears walking his beat, he looks ready to use it. Imagine the police of today walking down the street carrying a 26 inch club in their hand?
This film was originally thought to be from 1905 until David Kiehn with the Niles Essanay Silent Film Museum figured out exactly when it was shot. From New York trade papers announcing the film showing to the wet streets from recent heavy rainfall & shadows indicating time of year & actual weather and conditions on historical record, even when the cars were registered (he even knows who owned them and when the plates were issued!). It was filmed only four days before the Great California Earthquake of April 18th 1906 and shipped by train to NY for processing.
