Amnesty International and the ECHR have already joined the case, while Poland has found itself in a storm of criticism.
However, the official Warsaw continues to hold the line and drag out the investigation of the case.
More Tips Below! Many of you have asked me for some tips on how to get started with juicing and make it work, so here they are. :) Juicing has been very helpful to me, not only in terms of physical health but mental and emotional resilience and stamina. I hope this information is useful to you. Happy juicing! Basics:
Start at the bottom: get your water intake up before you even start juicing.
If you're going to buy a juicer, try to invest in a good one. They will make better juice and be easier to clean. Go slow! Don't throw yourself into it like a fad diet or you will end up in over your head and get discouraged. Start with just one juice a day and then increase. Store multiple servings for a day in a container in the fridge. When you have gotten into the daily habit, you might want to try doing a 2 or 3 day juice fast, or a having just juice, fruit, vegetables and other raw foods for 2 or 3 days.
In addition to this, I would recommend that you get a hair analysis and see a naturopath before you start to make sure you you are not inadvertently juicing things that contain minerals you already have excesses of. Some plants like parsley and dandelion are highly medicinal but that doesn't mean the more, the better. Parsley is very potent and in large quantities can be toxic. Celery has diuretic properties. A bit of celery might be good but if you drink large amounts of it and you find yourself constantly running to the washroom, you will know why. If you drink large amounts of carrot juice, your skin might take on an orange hue, especially in your palms. It's good to vary what you put in your juice and use many different fruits and vegetables. Try to use plenty of vegetables because they are very alkalizing.

As 60's activist Mario Savio put it, "You've got to put your bodies upon the gears, upon the wheels, upon the levers, and you've got to make the machine stop!
You've got to let the people who own it and run it know that unless you're free, the machine will be prevented from working at all!
What tricks do hackers have up their sleeves, that you could use to get off the grid?
With the bombshell revelation that the National Security Agency was reading email, keeping track of your meta-data, not to mention your phone-- staying anonymous seems like an uphill battle.
So, I decided to go on the offense- and set out to find an expert who could teach me a few things about protecting my own privacy and erasing my tracks.
Convenience and cool technology must be swapped if you want to keep your privacy- RT's Margaret Howell found.
Iceland has been informally contacted by an intermediary who stated that NSA leaker, former CIA contractor Edward Snowden, wants asylum in the Nordic island-state, Reuters reports.
The difficulty though is that he is not in the country. WikiLeaks spokesman Kristinn Hrafnsson wrote in Icelandic daily Frettabladid that a middleman had approached him on behalf of Snowden.
"Former vice president Dick Cheney defended the NSA surveillance on Fox News, saying that it could have helped the United States prevent the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks. "As everybody who's been associated with the program's said, if we had had this before 9/11, when there were two terrorists in San Diego—two hijackers—had been able to use that program, that capability, against that target, we might well have been able to prevent 9/11," Cheney said, according to NBC."*
Dick Cheney told Fox News that because Edward Snowden leaked classified information, he is a traitor. But wait, wait, wait, Dick! Does a name like "Scooter Libby" ring any bells? Is it okay for Cheney to leak info for his own benefit but not okay for anyone to expose him? Cenk Uygur breaks it down.
"In the months and early years after 9/11, FBI agents began showing up at Microsoft Corp. more frequently than before, armed with court orders demanding information on customers.
Around the world, government spies and eavesdroppers were tracking the email and Internet addresses used by suspected terrorists. Often, those trails led to the world's largest software company and, at the time, largest email provider."*
We know PRISM is a program used by the NSA to spy on Americans, data-mining and holding onto potentially damning data. But to what extent was this system taken? We have a more-complete take on the story now, and the present has never seemed more like 1984. Cenk Uygur breaks it down.

In this episode of the Keiser Report, Max Keiser and Stacy Herbert report from Belfast on location at the G8 and anti-G8 meetings.
They juxtapose the protests in China where thousands wait in line to buy gold to protect against G8-style inflationary policies to the less effective protests in Belfast where placards are waved in 'free speech zones;' while, in Westminster, secret proposals are drafted by Rothschilds to retroactively raise interest rates on $40 billion in outstanding student loan debts.
The plan is suggested in order to make the debt more attractive to private investors.
In the second half, Max talks to independent journalist, Luke Rudkowski, about fake shopfronts in Belfast meant to disguise the true state of the economy and about the few protesters demanding communism and socialism when that's part of the reason our financial and economic systems have collapsed.
Turkey's unbowed protesters have returned to Taksim Square - despite police efforts to clear the plaza and threats to bring in the military to quell the unrest.

Syria's conflict looms large over the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights, where the border is already troubled by fighting.
The prospect of having war on its doorstep is a worry for Israel - although not, perhaps, for the country's elite, who have been revealed to have an expensive and impenetrable hideout.
Paula Slier looks at what the rest of the country thinks about it.

DIRTY WARS film fails to explore the meaning of the words DIRTY WARS and the role of the CIA initiating these wars.(VIDEO)
Dirty Wars is the title of a new documentary film released earlier this month, claiming to document the covert US actions in Afghanistan, Yemen, Somalia, and elsewhere in the name of the phoney "War on Terror." Narrated by and starring Nation / Democracy Now alumnus Jeremy Scahill, it is co-produced by Anthony Arnove and Brenda Coughlin and directed by Richard Rowley, and its trailer gives a hint of its slick, modern Hollywood docudrama sensibility.
The documentary has already won raves, predictably enough, from Scahill's colleagues at the Nation and Democracy Now, as well as other sympathetic "progressive" outlets. It has even brought Scahill himself a certain level of celebrity in mainstream circles, something that a cursory glance at Scahill's Twitter feed is enough to confirm is greatly important to him—that feed containing many more photos of the celebrities he meets and hangs out with than news or information about the Dirty War he is supposedly documenting. His mainstream pop culture icon status was cemented during his recent appearance on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno.
But is Scahill's documentary worthy of the endless praise that is being heaped on it? Sadly, according to researchers like Douglas Valentine in his scathing review of the film, "Dirty Wars and Self-indulgence" the answer is a resounding 'no.' As its critics—few and far between as they may be—have been at pains to point out, the documentary fails to explore the meaning or history of the phrase it has taken for its title, Dirty Wars, or examined the people (and the agency) which has had the biggest hand in conducting these operations in the past: the CIA.
