A New Era and New Tales in 2010

The Environmental Protection Agency or the EPA wants to have stricter Drinking water standards in the world. They want to do this because 4 contaminants that can cause cancer are many water supplies. The EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson spoke on Monday. She said that the EPA is developing stricter regulations for 4 chemcial compounds. They are tetrachloroethylene, trichloroethylene, acrylamide and epichlorohydrin. All four compounds can cause cancer.Trichloroethylene, also known as TCE, and tetrachloroethylene are used as industrial scolvents. They can seep into drinking water from contaminated groundwater or surface water. The other 2 compounds are impurities that can be introduced into drinking water during the water treatment process. Jackson said that the EPA will issue new rules on TCE and tetrachloroethylene within the next year. Rules for the other two compounds will follow. Jackson made the comments on Monday. She wants a new strategy to better protect public health from contaminants in drinking water. With budgets strained and new threats emerging, the EPA, states and utilities need to foster innovation that can increase cost-effective measures to protect drinking water according to Jackson. She said that we will have to be smarter to make our drinking water systems work harder in a speech to the Association of Metropolitan Water Agencies. She wants greater collaboration among states and the federal government as well as development of new technologies to meet the needs of rural, urban, and other water stressed communities. The is a new strategy attempting to address contaminants as a means to improve efficiency, develop new technologies to address health risks form a broad array of contaminants, use a combination of federal and state laws to protect drinking water, and form patnerships with states. Jackson didn't want slow progress to take place in handling water protection. TCEI is of course problematic. The compound was used to clean nuclear missiles and was frequently dumped at missile sites. Exposure to high concentrations of chemical can cuase nervous system system problems, liver and lung damage, abnormal heartbeat, coma, and death. This is according to the Department of Health and Human Services' Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is identifying and creating up doznes of former nuclear missile sites in nine states. The missile sites include 14 in Kansas, 10 in Nebraska, seven in Wyoming, seven in Colorado and two in Oklahoma. California, New Mexico, New York and Texas have one contaminated site each. One important thing to achieve is the banning of flouride in our water supply.



The Health care new law has arosed controversy in the world. A certain section of the United States believe that the new law is a grave improvement in the atmosphere of bringing much needed health care to all Americans. Another section of America concieve of thte new health care law as being a liberty grabbing and instristically bad law that sets to ruin the present American health care system. Some violence have occured against many Democratic buildings and that I don't agree with. You can easily express dissent without violence or destroying property completely. What is unmistakably true is that the US health care system presently have issues. The wealthiest nation in terms of per capita in GDP isn't America, but Luxembourg and Norway. The highest Human Development Index or the HDI is found in Iceland and Norway. combines normalized measures of life expectancy, literacy, educational attainment, and GDP per capita for countries worldwide. It is claimed as a standard means of measuring human development—a concept that, according to the United Nations Development Program (UNDP), refers to the process of widening the options of persons, giving them greater opportunities for education, health care, income, employment, etc. The basic use of HDI is to measure a country's development. The HDI of America is 15. The best education is found in Australia, Denmark, and other nations while America is number 19. This proves that certain parts of Europe like Norway with the stable krome currency have better economic efficiently than America.



The controversial health care bill is law now. Now, some Democrats want to protect a finananical regulatory bill. The Democratic Senator Christopher Dodd is a strong advocate of the legislate. Some support it and others feel that it doesn't go far enough in promoting financial security in America. The bill is about 1,300 pages. The Morgan Stanley Chairman says that the sky should be the limit in the banker bailouts. There is a 13-10 vote to send the bill to the Senate floor. Some feel that Treasury Timothy Geithner is trying to inspire Dodd to weaken the bill. This tactics relates to added to the bill amendments proposed by the Republicans on the committee. Geithner made commones to the American Enterprise Institute. The AEI is a neo con group that is responsible for the Iraq War causing over 1 million dead Iraqis to occur. If passed the bill will create a Consumer Financial Protection Bureau within the Federal Reserve, rather than the standalone Consumer Financial Protection Agency that is in the version of the bill that was approved by the House last December. You don't create a Consumer Financial Protection Bureau run out of the FED and cause it accountability. It only gives the FED a lot more power as it has today. Congress might not do anything about since Congress have been hijacked by the influence of international bankers. These bankers exploited trillions of dollars from the Americna people to benefit their own agenda. Members of Congress with a few small exceptions are members of the Bankster party. Democrat and Republican designations are nothing but fashion statements. Dodd shouldn't allow the Federal Reserve to seize control of our financial service industry. We can protect ordinary Americans by doing other means of auditing the FED, create protections independent of the FED's influence, and create the economic reforms necessary to decrease unemployment plus rise up our standard of living.








New York's Kingborough Community College flips and backs pro-life free speech. A student was told not to distribute a pro-life newsletter on the campus of Kingsborough Community College. Later, he will be allowed to so. This comes as a result of letter sent to the school by the Alliance Defense Fund. "Pro-life students shouldn't be discriminated against for expressing their beliefs," said ADF Litigation Staff Counsel Travis Barham. He added that: "...In this case, campus security officers and several administrators tried to stop a student from passing out pro-life fliers even though no campus policy prohibited him from doing so. We commend the college for quickly rectifying this situation and affirming our client’s rights protected by the First Amendment.” The story is that on September 24, Joseph Hayon was distributing copies of a pro-life newsletter to passerby outside the KCC cafeteria. He was approached by a campus security officer who toled him that he could not "give out fliers on campus" because they did not have an official stamp from the Office of Student Life. However, no school policy even discusses students distributing literature on campus. After speaking with several campus officials, Hayon was eventually told that he could have a table on campus to distribute his literature. Yet, he would have to wait 8 days to recieve the table. He could only used it for four hours at a time, and he could not directly hand the literature to those who passed by. In the letter sent March 11, ADF attorneys wrote that: "...To date, KCC has identified no interests that would support its restrictions on Mr. Hayon’s leafleting, particularly since courts readily recognize that peaceful leafleting poses little (if any) risk of disruption. One OSL official indicated that he could not distribute literature because it might ‘offend people.’ Yet the Supreme Court…could not be clearer on this point: the First Amendment exists to protect offensive speech, and KCC simply cannot silence speech because some people find it offensive. Indeed, this is a bedrock principle underlying the First Amendment..." In its response, dated March 16, counsel for KCC said the college would allow Hayon to pass out his fliers freely, without the restrictions it previously imposed. So, free speech, even if it's apart of pro-life free speech has a right to be legitimately expressed in the public arena.























There is a lot of information about the JFK assassination indeed. It's interesting to note that George H. W. Bush doesn't want more flies to be declassified about the JFK assassination. He claims that it deals with "national security." If this is true, why do they embrace a lone person theory (which doesn't relate to more powerful interests involved in the JFK assassination). Many witnesses say that anti-Castro Cubans were in Dallas during the time of the assassination. For example, Marita Lorenz under oath said that Posada Carriles was in Dallas in 11/22/1963. He was apart of the CIA trained group called Operation 40 that tried to kill Fidel Castro. Lee Harvey Oswald is even pictured with David Ferrie at a Civil Air Patrol picnic. Ferrie died in a "suicide" days before he was scheduled to testify in the famous trial of District Attorney Jim Garrison, who accused him of being part of a conspiracy in the murder of JFK. Sam Giancana states in his biography that he knew Lyndon Johnson and Richard Nixon personally. Sam is one Mob boss that believed that the CIA and Mafia colloborated with each other and other entities to do the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. Giancana claimed that both "Richard Nixon and Lyndon Johnson knew about the whole d___ thing"— adding that he had met with both future presidents in Dallas "immediately prior to the assassination." In recounting for his relatives a big favor the congressman did for Giancana back then, the gangster established a direct link between Nixon and a Chicago hoodlum who later moved to Texas and went on to shoot Lee Harvey Oswald: "Nixon's done me some favors, all right, got us some highway contracts, worked with the unions and overseas. And we've helped him and his CIA buddies out, too. S__, he even helped my guy in Texas, (Jack) Ruby, get out of testifying in front of Congress back in forty-seven … By sayin' Ruby worked for him." Giancana was the head of the Chicago Mafia for years. It's certainly true that the CIA and the Mafia worked together in the early 1960's in an attempt to assassination Fidel Castro. It's easy to more Nixon and Bush connections. George H. W. Bush, Gerald Ford, and Prescott Bush raised funds for Richard Nixon in his 1960 campaign. Nixon as President made George H. W. Bush ambassador to China.
