text Health Bill Ignores Industrial Health Harms Watchdog 2009-11-24 2:16 AM
Health care bill, now in hands of the Senate, ignores every industrial threat and harm to health. It finds that people's behavior is the biggest threat. Could this be because all Senators are economically-linked to health-harming industries, AND their insurers and investors? Sworn and public-paid Congress members wouldn't go AWOL on their solemn oaths and duties to the people, would they? (text/plain)

text TO HELL WITH THE GODS OF ZIONISM! - FOR THAT IS WHERE THEY BELONG. Ed Ward, MD 2009-11-20 12:23 AM
Zionism places 'the chosen' as more equal than anyone that doesn't support their dogma and justifies the destruction, control and even murder of 'the heathen' for any BS scam reason imaginable. blasphemy against god/nature/mankind. Murdering scumbags suffices for me. However, the Jewsih religion is the ONLY major religion to note its Zionism. http://www.jewsagainstzionism.com/ (text/plain)

General speaking, jewelry may take on various forms such as rings, bracelets, necklaces and ear rings. Each of these jewelry articles is worn on a particular part of the wearer's body having a naturally retentive shape such as the neck, wrist, ankle and even the waist. Other types of jewelry articles such as medals and broaches are attached to the wearer's clothing. These latter types of articles also include keychains and pocket watches which are suspended from a beltloop of the wearer and are generally stored in a pocket of the wearer. (text/plain)

Good and Bad Choices for Energy Policy and the Environmental Movement 2009-2010
Two energy/environment phenomena are being widely discussed currently. These are global warming, and its mitigation, and the nuclear resurgence – the worldwide push to supply power with nuclear power plants. Careful study of these issues leads to the following conclusions: 1. Global warming is real and is causing harm. 2. Global warming is mostly due to heat production by human industry since the 1800s, from nuclear power and fossil fuels, better termed hydrocarbons, – coal, oil, natural gas. Greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2 play a minor role even though they are widely claimed the cause. 3. Both nuclear and hydrocarbon-based power must be eliminated to solve the global warming problem. 4. Nuclear power advocates have commandeered the global warming/greenhouse gas formula to promote nuclear power, based upon two errors: exaggerating the role of CO2 on the one hand and incorrectly claiming that nuclear power plants do not produce CO2 on the other hand. 5. Nuclear power can not be separated from nuclear weapons, which are essential to the consistent drive for American military dominationof the world. This is the reason for nuclear power. Nuclear power does not make sense as a safe, efficient, or economical way to provide energy. 6. Solar and solar-derived (wind, wave) sources of power do not add heat to the environment and can be used to supply virtually unlimited electrical energy without causing global warming. If done properly they will open up new vistas of human freedom and cultural development. They also produce much less CO2 than either nukes or hydrocarbons. (image/jpeg)
