Female Infants Growing Breasts After Being Fed Infant Formula
Posted by admin in Environment, Health and Wellness, Social Awareness on August 16th, 2010
According to the official Chinese Daily newspaper, medical tests performed on the babies found levels of estrogens circulating in their bloodstreams that are as high as those found in most adult women. These babies are between four and 15 months old. And the evidence is overwhelming that the milk formula they have been fed is responsible.
Along with China, the U.S. is today one of the few countries in the world that still allows bovine growth hormones to be injected into dairy cows. Though banned in Canada, Japan, Australia, New Zealand and most of Europe, the use of these hormones in U.S. dairy is not only legal, it’s routine in all 50 states.

Demonstration at Baldwin Hills Oil Field- August 18,2010
Posted by admin in Politics, Social Awareness, Uncategorized on August 4th, 2010
What: Baldwin Hills Big Oil Must Pay RALLY
When: Wednesday, August 18, 2010
Time: 5:00 pm – 6:30 pm
Where: Park and Gather at Ladera Soccer Fields
(Fairfax, between Slauson and Stocker)
Please join us on AUGUST 3, 2010 at 5:30 PM here at CHC to plan for the demonstration. Please RSVP your participation.
This is a unique opportunity to combine forces with other sectors working on the state-wide struggle to make oil companies pay their fair share. The demonstration will be on August 18 and will bring light to our current struggles with PXP AND it will build off local efforts to build support for the oil severance tax in both the Assembly and Senate budget proposals. California is the only major oil-producing state that does not tax oil companies drilling here or off our coast. It would raise at least $1.2 billion, to help balance the budget without devastating cuts to health and human services.
