Pregnant Woman Could Lose Baby via H1N1 Vaccine


In Canada they have just withdrawn 170,000 doses of the vaccine for the same reason. In the US, many pregnant women have lost their babies after having the vaccination, several people have had Guillam-Barres paralysis and there have been seizures too. There also have been 1,329 reports of suspected adverse reactions to Pandemrix in four weeks.
There have been two cases of anaphylactic shock, one child experienced arthritis and two had seizures. But all these reactions have been called "coincidences" by the vaccine companies and our MOH informed us that there are no concerns about these reports. Now that the H1N1 Vaccination Campaign has been suspended, so many unanswered questions lead to us getting very suspicious as to what is really going on. People should educate themselves about the dangers of any vaccines. Especially before allowing themselves and their children to be injected by something which can cause so much damage. Don't just ask your doctor. Research on the net and read books and get a well rounded education about something so important. So many people just repeat whatever rhetoric on the subject their doctor and government has brain washed them to believe.
Please also be aware that the vaccination makers will do everything in their (enormous financial) power to deny that this death has anything to do with the vaccine. It's not a vaccine that I would want to have until the safety of this jab has been clinically proven to OUR satisfaction.

HOW DO THE CHINESE CELEBRATE CHINESE NEW YEAR?

      SPRING CLEANING

Spring cleaning is a must before Chinese New Year's Day. No sweeping is allowed on the first day of Chinese New Year as it is believed that you will be sweeping out all your goodluck or family fortune.

      REUNION DINNER

Family members will get together on the eve of Chinese New Year for a reunion dinner. This is the most important day of all. Some families prepare elaborate dinners while some will choose to have a steamboat dinner.

The steamboat dinner is a big pot of soup placed in the middle of the dinner table and lots of different kinds of foods like shrimps, fish, crabs, meatballs, fishballs, chicken meat, pork and vegetables are put into the pot of soup to cook.

      FIRST DAY OF CHINESE NEW YEAR

All debts have to be repaid by this time. There should also be no lending on this day as it is believed that it will put you in debt for the whole year.

Foul language or curse words and words that are supposed to be unlucky or sound unlucky should not be uttered.

Children also get away with their misbehaviour on this day. Parents do not want to upset their children or make them cry as crying on New Year's Day is considered unlucky.

It is advisable to start the day off by consuming a bowl of sweet dessert called "tong sui" (sugary drink) in Cantonese. It symbolises starting the year off sweet and pleasant.

The children will greet their parents and adults :

# Gong Hei Fatt Choy (in Cantonese)
# Gong Xi Fa Cai (in Mandarin)
# Keong Hee Huat Chai (in Hokkien)

The meaning of "Gong Xi" is congratulations while "Fa Cai" means be rich or prosperous. All the above have the same meaning. They only sound different.

New clothes and shoes are a must for Chinese New Year.

The younger generation will go visit their elder relatives and friends too. Married couples, will have to give a red packet called "Hong Pow" containing money inside to those who are not married and also to their parents.

The hosts will serve their guests all kinds of cookies and the Mandarin Orange. The Mandarin Orange is a symbol of prosperity.

      SECOND DAY OF CHINESE NEW YEAR

The elder generation who stayed at home to welcome visiting relatives on the first day, will now visit their friends and relatives.

One of the things that most Chinese do during Chinese New Year is to play some card games. It is a favorite past time during this festive season of 15 days. The Chinese also like to set off lots of fireworks and firecrackers during this time.

03. 8-Bit Dynamic Life Shirt: Measures Proximity to Lovers


Let me explain --once again-- the concept of the 8-Bit Dynamic Life Shirt ($24.99): you wear one and give one to your partner. Then whenever you both are "in range", the pixilated hearts start glowing to full charge. This means your beloved is somewhere nearby and you can go over and give him/her a hug! When you are out of range the glowing hearts dip to two and a half. Essentially you either need to pick up two T-Shirts or one T-Shirt and a transmitter for the concept to work. Replicating the life power of your fav gaming hero, the hearts on the Tee indicate your life/love status: weird but cute!

04. Control-Your-Spouse Talking Remote

The beat of the pillow slowly synchs with your own heartbeat, and each time you turn it on, a new, unique heartbeat is created.

08. Hello Kitty Vibrator
