BEIJING: The man who exposed the illegal deeds of the Chinese dairy industry, resulting in a countrywide scandal in 2008, and the subsequent exposure of other incidents of milk contamination was beaten to death. The milk contamination had caused sickness to an estimated 300,000 people and resulted in the death of six infants in 2008.

Orphium frutescens is the only species in the genus. It's a member of the Gentian family, forming an attractive, small, evergreen shrub about 2½ feet tall. The lush foliage is thick and narrow, giving the plant the appearance of an upright Rosemary bush. The slightly cupped blooms cover the plant throughout the summer. Lilac and white flower forms of this species exist, however mine is an intense bubble-gum pink! The 1½" blooms are accented with bright yellow anthers.
The plant has an unusual relationship with a certain species of African carpenter bee. The flowers only release pollen when they sense the vibration of the buzzing bee! You can read the fascinating story in this BBC article. With some experimentation, i've managed to produce seeds without the bees.

China has always been extremely corrupt and this doesn't surprise me one bit, but what of all the untold story's/scandals yet to come?
How much food products are contaminated with poison that we don't of yet, likely 1000s if not tens of thousands....
Thoughts ATS?
