Genetically Modified Crops Implicated in Honeybee Colony Collapse Disorder

As the disappearance of honeybees continues, researchers are trying desperately to discover the cause of Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD). General concensus at this point is that there is more than once cause and the latest culprit may be genetically modified crops. This is one area of research being neglected as mainstream scientists insist GM crops are safe.

For the last 100 years, beekeepers have experienced colony losses from bacteria, (foulbrood), mites (varroa and tracheal) and other pathogens. These problems are dealt with by using antibiotics, miticides and and other methods of pest management. Losses are slow and expected and beekeepers know how to limit the destruction. This new mass die-off is different in that it is virtually instantaneous with no warning of the impending collapse. more

Italy earthquake: Agony of families as death toll reaches 260

About 1,200 people were injured in the original quake and 100 of those are still in a serious condition.

Italy's civil protection services have set up 31 tent cities and 24 field kitchens, and 18,000 people are sheltering in 3,000 tents.

But victims said more tents were needed as many people continued to sleep in their cars with night-time temperatures approaching zero.

At least 200 homeless survivors were turned away from one of the camps because there wasn't enough room. source
