Beautiful Perspective of the Day: Infographic on drug-related deaths vs. proportion of users vs. media coverage in the UK, prepared by David McCandless of Information Is Beautiful for a Guardian blog article on the subject.

Note on cannabis-related deaths:

The cannabis deaths figure is a bit dubious in my opinion. Firstly, how can you die from cannabis? It’s extremely non-toxic. There has never been a single documented case of fatal cannabis overdose. Also, the government’s own figures don’t tally. While drug figures from the Office Of National Statistics register 19 cannabis related deaths, the mortality stats from the same office log only 1 death.

Former Astronaut Announces: We Are Officially Not Alone.

Former Astronaut Edgar Mitchell (who flew in 1971’s Apollo 14 moon mission)

admits that the a member of the US Government confirmed the Roswell, New Mexico UFO crash was real and covered-up.

Edgar Mitchell:

“I urge those who are doubtful: Read the books, read the lore, start to understand what has really been going on. Because there really is no doubt we are being visited,” he said.

“The universe that we live in is much more wondrous, exciting, complex and far-reaching than we were ever able to know up to this point in time.”

Former Astronauts have openly stated that then have seen strange Objects while in space. What is the US government trying to hide?

Why are they so sure we can’t handle the truth? Maybe it’s because the truth is more sinister than the fiction we live.
