The Canadian Stockbroker© | TCS newswire™: "America quoted from “THE REPUBLIC of EAST VANCOUVER” Issue #147 September 15 to 28, 2006

The American century draws to its close

Like all world-dominating empires before it, America has stopped growing. The rest is inevitable

By Dan Adleman

In the lead-up to the fifth anniversary of 9/11, George Bush went on vacation to his Crawford ranch, where, when he wasn’t playing cowboy, he apparently did a little light reading. One of the books we’re told he dusted off was Camus’ The Stranger, which The Daily Show’s John Stewart quickly pointed out is a story about an unreflective “westerner who kills an Arab for no good reason and dies with no remorse.” To a great many observers, this sounds like a fitting summary of not only the Bush legacy and America’s fate in Iraq and Afghanistan, but also what will become of Uncle Sam’s stature in the 21st century."

Vancouver — A silent tectonic event, so powerful it has shifted southern Vancouver Island out to sea, but so subtle nobody has felt a thing, is slowly unfolding on the West Coast.

Scientists who are tracking the event with sensitive seismographs and earth orbiting satellites warn it could be a trigger for a massive earthquake -- some time, maybe soon.

But they are quick to add that the imperceptible tremors emanating from deep beneath the surface are sending signals scientists are not yet able to comprehend fully and 'the Big One' might yet be 200 years off.

What they do know is that the earth is moving this week on the West Coast as two massive tectonic plates slip past each other."

Wild Reishi is extremely rare. Only one or two mushrooms can be found on a hill. Due to damage by insects and weather, the quality of wild Reishi is unpredictable. Only the fruit body can be harvested, when the active ingredients have already decreased. The dried mushrooms may not have the potency of the fresh mushroom.
When buying wild Reishi, expertise is required in order not to confuse Reishi with the hundreds of other mushrooms (some of which are poisonous). After it matures, the fruit body is hardened by fibers which make it more difficult to extract and digest the active ingredients. The spores are of microscopic dimensions, similar to the size of bacteria. They are protected by two layers of hardened cell walls. These cell walls trap the active ingredients inside and are indigestible.

Although wild Reishi fruit body and the spores are all effective products, our ancestors had to use a large quantity of Reishi to get a little benefit. As it was impossible to cultivate, this rare mushroom was available only to emperors.

Modern bio-engineering technology has made Reishi available to the general public in large quantities. The quality can be carefully controlled by providing the best conditions and sufficient nutrients. Further investigations have discovered that the largest amount of active ingredients exists in the mycelium, and that the mycelium is more digestible. The extraction process can be timed at the precise stage when the mycelium contains the largest amount of active ingredients. Fresh mycelium is available, and there is no chance for mistaken identity. Without the obstacles of the fibers, the extraction is more complete and the extract is more digestible. Therefore, the latest research on the medicinal properties of Reishi is done on the mycelia extracts.
