The Real Mobile Phone Wars - DRC, 10 October 2001

As the high tech age takes over more and more of our lives manufacturers will go to any lengths to get the sometimes scarce minerals that go into them. Tantalum is one such rare ingredient. Few of us know that in the middle of Africa much human suffering is created in the pursuit of it.

Coltan is a valuable metal because it can be processed and manufactured into a component called a capacitor, which sits on the circuit board of mobile phone and other portable electronic devices. The Democratic Republic of Congo is the world's second biggest supplier of coltan (after Australia), supplying an estimated 18 per cent of the world market. The trouble with coltan from Congo is that it is fuelling the war there. Various rebel groups and militias are mining, stealing, taxing and/or smuggling coltan to raise funds for their war effort. A recent UN report has declared the trade in coltan from Congo illegal because the legitimate and internationally recognised Government of the Democratic Republic of Congo does not license it. Instead the trade of coltan is helping to destabilise that government. Our reporter, JULIANA RUHFUS, travels via Uganda across the Kasindi border crossing, to Congo, her quest to find the source of coltan. Her often dangerous journey takes her via coltan traders, miners and warlords including the Mayi Mayi.

Nataki's Homemade Piña Colada
Nataki's Homemade Piña Colada Nataki Kambon 52 Views • 7 years ago

1 Organic pineapple
1 can organic coconut milk

1 Large Kichen Knife
Juicer and/or blender
Pineapple corer
Can opener

1. Turn the pineapple on its side and chop off the top as shown.

2. Take the corer and remove the pineapple down to within a quarter inch of the base.
Note: Don't core too far down or you will puncture the base of the pineapple. If you do that your pina colada will spill out of the bottom when you try to refill the rind.

2. Turn it on at the pineapple setting and put the pineapple in the juicer. Turn off when finished.

3. Open the can of coconut milk.

4. Add a 4 or ounce can of coconut milk and the juice pineapple in a glass blender. Optionally you can add some of the pulp from the juicing to get the fiber and the nutrients.

If you don't have a blender you can stir the ingredients together with a spoon or put in a jar with a lid and shake vigorously.

5. Pour the Pina Colada back into the rind.

6. Drink from the rind directly or with a straw.

Pineapple is a good source of vitamin C, manganese, and B1 and B6. Don't let your pina colada sit in open-air for very long.

It might be good to pair similar nutrient supplements with your pina colada for improved absorption of those nutrients.

The best way to get the nutrients is to drink your pina colada quickly. The more contact with oxygen the more the vitamin oxidizes and breaks down. In other words, the vitamin C loses its potency and you lose the nutritional value.

Pineapple and coconut are both immune builders.

APOCALYPSE OR FREEDOM?
APOCALYPSE OR FREEDOM? Blaxit 18 Views • 6 years ago

Controversial laws are being p****ed in different states in the US that appear to imply that the COVID 19 Vaccine may be mandatory. In light of the current speculation regarding the safety of the experimental vaccine with 4 alleged deaths of children who were involved in medical trials in Africa, it is questionable how safe the vaccine is. After an interview with two French Doctors during a TV interview they stated that they would test if the TB vaccine would be effective for the COVID 19 virus or CAPS . We felt very strongly that no tests should be conducted in Africa given the fact that the Continent in fact has the least fatalities. In fact it should be tested in those areas that most need it. In addition to this the population reduction statements made about Africa only raises further suspicion. Why is population control always directed towards Africa? Gambia for example has less than 2 million people who live in 4231 Square miles, whereas London is 600 Square miles and has over 9 million inhabitants. There are too many issues to address, however we are concerned that African Leaders will be bought out and implement Infectious Disease Centres in their countries thereby officiating and ensuring that experimental and possibly lethal vaccines are trialed in the countries potentially harmful viruses will be released causing a catastrophic pandemic. A thought should be given to the potential victims, not just to the money being pumped into Africa via World Banks. Which should be building lots of hospitals, not just testing centres. This all sounds nefarious and may be like a conspiracy theory. The conspiracy theorist were absolutely correct in predicting the events that are unfolding today and maybe we should pay closer attention. I have included a couple of clips one from Project Camelot that was made in 2010 and one from an old episode of X files. I just wanted to show you that everything is in plain view. It is whether you wish to see it or not. Condolences to all victims and their families that have transcended. Lets stay level headed and not be overcome by fear. I refuse to be governed by the media and I live my life as close to normal as possible without taking unnecessary risks. I see this whole episode playing itself out.
