Mast protesters stage soccer ground clash

Here is one we helped to get rid of! I only heard today that the council refused permission after careful consideration i.e. two press releases from Mast Sanity and several blunt letters to the council and landlord! More to do here though as they have 7 masts and one TETRA up and running!

Mast protesters stage soccer ground clash

By Bruce Smith

A CROWD of amateur soccer fans was confronted by demonstrators protesting over plans for a new mast for police mobile phones at a Leeds football club.

When Yorkshire Amateur FC played the final match of the season against Carlton FC at their Bracken Edge ground at Leeds, demonstrators backed by the national campaign group, Mast Sanity, turned out in force to protest at the plan for the 25-metre high Tetra mast.

Waving banners and shouting: "No More Masts," the demonstrators received a mixed response, including beeps of support from drivers, said local residents spokeswoman Jill Harland.

Residents believe the mast, which if approved would have nine antennae, could be a threat to the health of residents and in particular children. The mast is to be installed by Airwave 02 to provide the new police service communications system.

Mast Sanity claims it is being left to ordinary people, like the residents of Bracken Edge and the Roxholmes in Chapel Allerton, to protect their communities as best they can from masts. It has urged the Government to act on the Stewart Report, which highlighted the vulnerability of children to emissions from masts. Before the protest a spokeswoman, said: "If Yorkshire Amateur CFC want to build up support they'd be well advised to listen to what the community is telling them and refuse this Tetra mast."

"We want the football club to stop playing games with our health," said Ms Harland. "The score is already in the opposition's favour, but there comes a time when health is more important than wealth."
Evidence

If approved, the new Tetra mast will be the ninth such installation locally. "There is mounting evidence of ill health among communities living near masts," says Mast Sanity health and safety adviser Yasmin Skelt. "We need urgent action to control the number of masts."

Residents claim the backing of the Labour parliamentary candidate for the Leeds North East seat, Fabian Hamilton. Other candidates are: Jonathan Brown for the Lib Dems, Celia Foote for the Alliance for Green Socialism, and Matthew Lobley for the Conservatives.

Stop Canada's Cruel and Senseless Seal Hunt

ActForChange and Working Assets are proud to bring you an urgent alert from CARE2, the largest online network for people who Care2 make a difference. This urgent action calls on the Canadian government to end the cruel and senseless seal hunt, the largest deliberate slaughter of marine mammals in the world.

I urge you to take action below in support of ending this tragic hunt. Together, we are making a difference.

Stop Canada's Cruel and Senseless Seal Hunt!

Nearly 1 million baby seals will be clubbed or shot to death in Canada in just three years. Shockingly, the hunt is subsidized by the Canadian government!

Every winter, Northwest Atlantic harp seals migrate to Eastern Canada to give birth and mate. Following their birth in late winter, mothers leave in search of mates, while the pups remain helpless and vulnerable on the ice until they can swim and catch their own food. It's during this time when they are most vulnerable that they are mercilessly slaughtered for their pelts!

Hunters armed with clubs and rifles will bludgeon to death hundreds of thousands of baby harp seals. About 96% of the seals killed will be less than three months old and more than 40% may be skinned alive!

Canada's seal hunt is the largest deliberate slaughter of marine mammals in the world. But the killing of baby seals doesn't make sense economically or ecologically, nor is it sustainable. It's simply a tragic slaughter of defenseless animals that benefits a small minority of boat captains armed with big ships, snowmobiles and even personal helicopters. This isn't about small town survival or tradition, it's an industrial killing machine for profit.

But Canada wants the media and public to believe that no one cares about the innocent blood spilled each year across the Gulf of St. Lawrence. This year's hunt will continue until the industry reaches its quota of 319,500 seals. That's why we must raise a public outcry.

Please tell the Canadian government that you do care and that this practice is unacceptable. We must show the Canadian Parliament that the rest of the world will no longer stand for this cruel and senseless hunt!

Indeed, Iraq is another Vietnam, and is taking our eyes away from other critical news: peak oil, global warming, species extinction, etc. There was never the time for this distraction, as will become clear over the next few years.

Sister Dorothy Stang Remembered

On Saturday, February 12, Sister Dorothy Stang, a 73 year-old American nun who had lived for more than 30 years in the Amazon rainforest, was assassinated. Dorothy had dedicated nearly half of her life to giving a voice to rural communities working for land rights and sustainable development in the Amazon rainforests.

Because of her advocacy, she often received death threats from unruly landgrabbers throughout the state of Para, an area plagued with violence resulting from ongoing land disputes and illegal logging.

Amidst international outcry over this tragedy, Brazil's President Lula da Silva recently ordered the creation of two massive new rainforest reserves http://www.ran.org/news/newsitem.php?id=1336&area=home totaling more than 9 million acres in the state of Para.

JP Morgan Chase and BlueLinx linked to illegal logging of endangered forests and resulting humanitarian crisis

Investigation Finds "IMD" In Indonesia

JP Morgan Chase and BlueLinx linked to illegal logging of endangered forests and resulting humanitarian crisis.

http://www.ran.org/news/newsitem.php?id=1345&area=home

Ongoing investigations by Rainforest Action Network and Greenpeace confirmed that BlueLinx, America's largest building products distributor, is smuggling legally disputed, undocumented timber out of Indonesia's critically endangered rainforests and flooding the U.S. marketplace with artificially cheap lauan plywood. Bluelinx is funded by JP Morgan Chase, a US-based bank that has built its financial empire on making Investments of Mass Destruction.

An "IMD of the Month" case study published on DirtyMoney.org http://www.dirtymoney.org/studies/jpmc-bluelinx.php details the trafficking of undocumented wood by current BlueLinx suppliers throughout Indonesia.

Illegal logging throughout Indonesia continues to cause widespread devastation to the region's tropical rainforests and neighboring communities. Indonesian Ministry of Forestry reports that 43 million hectares of the country's forests have been damaged or destroyed over the last several decades due to illegal logging, with the average annual deforestation rate estimated at more than 2.8 million hectares (7 million acres) since 1998. These forests are some of the most biodiverse on Earth, and are home to a variety of threatened and endangered species, including the rare Indonesian orangutan. In addition, illegal logging has been blamed for massive flooding and landslides throughout Indonesia.

The ongoing devastation has been well-documented by the Indonesian Ministry of Forests, Yale School of forestry, Environmental investigation Agency, and Business Week Magazine.

RAN is calling on JP Morgan Chase and BlueLinx to immediately comply with a voluntary corporate embargo of Indonesian forest products already in place by Centex Corporation, International Paper and Lanoga Corporation.

Thin ice

You'd think that crossing the Arctic would be less dangerous in the summer. But in fact, thin ice and a warming climate make it far more treacherous.

On 13 May, explorers Lonnie Dupre and Eric Larsen will leave on a four-month unsupported expedition across the Arctic Ocean. Enduring shifting sea ice, these explorers will attempt one of the toughest feats in history. This journey however, is more than a story about heroism and adventure. Using skis and canoes, the team will cross the ice from Cape Arctichesky, Siberia, through the North Pole and onto Ellesmere Island, Canada, to document the impacts of global warming and highlight the threat it presents -- not only to the region, but to our entire planet.

While you may not be able to join Lonnie and Eric, you can still do your part to stop global warming. Watch for global action alerts at Greenpeace USA's website covering the expedition.

It sends to the associations of Neighbors a communication in which indicates that they have gone to the Minister of Health sending to him a letter, of whose content advances some paragraph. We cannot be removed two questions: * A priori negation of the evidences. * Tactics of resisted delay. ·A priori negation of the evidences: It says the Council of Health of the Community of Madrid that "... being an interrogative subject that provokes manifold and preoccupations in the population at national level, although the scientific community knows clearly criterion on the matter... "Who says that the scientific community knows clearly the criterion on the matter? Money could be saved the WHO, the European Community and hundreds of Institutions that continue their investigations. Which is the criterion of the scientific community on the matter? It is accepting the Community of Madrid, finally, the conclusions of the Declaration of Alcala of May of 2002; the conclusions of the Call of Freiburg - October 2002; the Conclusions of Professor Roger Santini, April 2004; the Conclusions of the Declaration of Helsinki - January 2005 when they alert of the nonthermal effects of the nonionizing radiations? Who form leaves from the scientific community to which the Council of Health of the Community of Madrid talks about? Presumed official investigators under suspicion to protect the interests of the companies (when it is necessary we give names) or the investigators that are related to excrupuloso detail in the Document answer to the "Study Epidemiologist in the school Garci'a Quintana" made by the Council of Health and Social welfare public (Castile-Leon) the 20 of November of 2001, elaborated from the parents of students of the Public School Garcia Quintana of Valladolid. To affirm that the scientific community knows clearly the criterion on the nonionizing radioactivity is a joy not at all scientist; it is an ignorance of the thousands of serious studies that refer injurious effects to us for the health, derivatives of the nonionizing radioactivity and of electromagnetic fields; it is to ningunear the pain many and, in any case... it supposes clear a supposed one of recusación: So that it helps us who a priori it gives by discounted which there is nothing on which to work... God frees to us of similar aid. ·Tactics of resisted delay. It says the Council of Health of the Community of Madrid that "... it could be interesting the design and beginning of a study epidemiologist at national level, at which from this Council we would lend the Maximal collaboration." Why a study epidemiologist at national level when zones next to antennas can be studied and to compare its data with zones of residence that they have more far or they do not have antennas in its tile roofs? Why a study epidemiologist long play when what is denounced it is that one is becoming ill and dying people? That they go to Móstoles and they see! The neighbors of Almaraz and the localities in surroundings of 40 km of the frontier Nuclear power station still are waiting for a study epidemiologist who takes a means and year delay more and, according to revealed Mercedes Milá in the Daily program of... a threat Nuclear power station, when he went to interview the Spokesman of the Nuclear Security Council, all we could verify that the assumption study epidemiologist still was in phase of planning. Ah, and a warning respect to the meeting with the Chief of a main directorate of Public Health. Who can lose minutes she could see the sad role that Secretary General played of the Ministry of Health, Fernando Lamata, in interview of Mercedes emitted Milá east Tuesday in Tele Five: It affirmed that in a Centre of Reference the substances were analysed that a cigarette contained and in the Centre of Reference it was recognized that they did not analyse but that three components. Conclusion: Good connoisseur of which he makes his Secretariat General and the dependent organs or a good occultation of the evidences. http://www.telecinco.es/dn_5200.htm To the Meeting of Castile and Leon ordered Judge to him Instructor of the case Garci'a Quintana of Valladolid that made a study epidemiologist. It was never made and the penal case was filed, even in spite of counting on a total balance of cases of infantile leukaemia not sufficiently known and on a balance cases of cancer in adults within the zone of influence of the antennas also not known. If somebody wants that truths are not hidden to him and asks for studies epidemiologists, we suggested before know the data the own ones interested so that nobody manipulates the results. If somebody asks for measurements it must be sure that that will measure microwatios/cm2 can quantify values with sensitivity of 0.01 and to know the difference between limits legally allowed by an obsolete and desconocedora legislation all whichever studies they have become from 1999, and limits over which already have been proven injurious effects for the health of the people. When the authorities request measurements or when they offer them the companies the only thing that are persecuted is to credit that it is within the effective legality, although that legality does not suppose security so some and as already the Report alerted in 2001 to the European Parliament of Doctor G.

The pipeline's end point, the oil terminal, will be built in Southwest Primorye that is a home to over a quarter of Russia's endangered species, including the Amur (Siberian) tiger and the 30 last remaining Amur leopards. The terminal will also threaten the Far East Marine Biosphere Reserve - Russia's only marine reserve with the status of UNESCO Biosphere Reserve.

As I will relate at the end, most Americans seem to have been condition not to make time to learn what may really be going on in our country...unless, it has to do with Michael Jackson, Martha Stewart, and the like.

Last week there was a stunning program on C-Span2 were David Ray Griffin reported on parts of his book: "The 9/11 Commission Report - Omissions and Distortions" which provide EVIDENCE to the complicity of some aspects of our government in the planning of the 9/11 attack. To my knowledge, this is the first time such evidence is allowed to be presented on our main stream media. This, of course, also begs to question: "How come our press does not report such evidence? What is really going on!?

I will conclude this by relating an incident that occurred with a fellow worker when I shared with her the disclosures presented on C-Span2. She only managed to get out a "Oh Wow!". When I said I would send her the link to the C-span program (before I made these excerpts), I alerted her that the link takes about 3-4 minutes to load, given that it is 90 min.long.

She replied by saying that, in that case, it is going to have to wait until she had nothing else to do before she listened!

I WAS STUNNED!

Here I am providing a US citizen with disturbing evidence about what, perhaps, could be considered a most alarming aspects of our government... which now had to wait until "she had nothing else (better?) to do"!

Does anyone wonder then, how it is that "the powers that be" can get away with something as unbelievable as complicity with 9/11?

You see, what she could not tie up was that, if covert groups in our government were willing to sacrifice the lives of 3,000 people on 9/11, what problems would they have getting rid of half, of not only our population, but that of our planet as well... if they deemed it necessary to hold on to their power?

About Mandate for Bush, GOP

by John F. Harris and Jim VandeHei
Washington Post Staff Writers
Monday, May 2, 2005; Page A01

The day after he won a second term in November, President Bush offered his view of the new political landscape.

"When you win there is a feeling that the people have spoken and embraced your point of view," he said, "and that's what I intend to tell the Congress, that I made it clear what I intend to do as president . . . and the people made it clear what they wanted, now let's work together."

Six months ago, this comment was widely viewed as more than just a postgame boast. Among campaign strategists and academics, there was ample speculation that Bush's victory, combined with incremental gains in the Republican congressional majority, signaled something fundamental: a partisan and ideological "realignment" that would reshape politics over the long haul.

Bush faces Republican resistance on Social Security

by Adam Entous
Mon May 2, 2005 10:14 PM ET Reuters


WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Bush's plan to shore up Social Security by reducing promised benefits for all but low-income retirees is meeting resistance from some Senate Republicans, casting new doubt on Bush's top domestic priority, Republican aides and officials said.

A USA Today/CNN poll released on Monday also showed Bush with the worst approval-disapproval ratings of his presidency -- 35 percent to 58 percent -- on the Social Security issue. The proposal he backed last week for "progressive indexing" was opposed 54 percent to 38 percent. [...] Read the rest at:

Pentagon says Iraq war erodes military's abilities

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. military's operations in Iraq and Afghanistan have constrained its ability to tackle other potential conflicts, making any future war more likely to be longer and bloodier, according to America's top general.

In an annual classified report required by Congress, Air Force Gen. Richard Myers, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said stress on manpower and equipment could limit the ability to win other possible wars as quickly as the Pentagon had previously forecast, defense officials said on Tuesday.

Myers stated in the report that U.S. armed forces would "succeed" in any future major conflict but "may be unable to meet expectations for speed or precision." [...] Read the rest at:

The Instrument of Global Control - What Chemtrails Really Are

There are two plans that Tesla had for providing energy. One for production and one for wireless distribution of energy. I will give a cursory explanation of each as I understand them. Tesla's plan for wireless energy was based on pumping AC current into the atmosphere polarized so that the return path of the current was through the air rather than through the ground. The way it was supposed to work was that the hot end of an electrical system in a building say, would be connected to the earth and the cold end would be connected to some sort of antenna which would drain the current off into the air thus making a complete circuit.

What is really interesting about Tesla's work though was some of the work he did Colorado on power generation. The basic premise was this: that the earth and the ionosphere were like the plates of a giant capacitor with the air in between acting as the dialectric. His theory was that if you could use a bolt of electricity to bore up through the air to the ionosphere then the current from the ionosphere would flow back to the earth because of its lower voltage potential (the ionosphere has a voltage potential of around 250 kilovolts and the earth has a voltage potential of a few thousand at most). Once the hole was made in the atmosphere current would continue to flow until it was interrupted or the potential voltages became equalized. It has been recently observed that lightning in fact does this. The ionosphere is constantly recharged by the solar wind so the supply of electricity would be virtually unlimited. Apparently he was successful, but his financier at the time (it was either Morgan or Westinghouse) was outraged because he thought there would be no way to meter and sell it, so he sent some goons to the lab and they destroyed it. Wireless electricity would actually be just as easy to meter as wired, all you would have to do is put a meter on the return antenna. (It would however be a small matter to build one's own unmetered return antenna...)

On your second point about the spraying of biological and toxic agents, there were several fairly well documented incedents in the 60's where the CIA did "experimental" releases. One was from a ship off the west coast near San Francisco where they released bacterial aerosol from a ship basically to see if it could be done. I believe that 11 people died and hundreds became ill IIRC. I'll see if I can find some links.... There were also incedents in New York and Florida and people died there as well. The bacterial agent they used was not super lethal and not particularly contagious. Thet were just "testing" you see...

Iraq, Afghanistan Wars Preventing Proactive Moves

The strains imposed by the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have made it far more difficult for the U.S. military to beat back new acts of aggression, launch a pre-emptive strike or prevent conflict in another part of the world, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff concluded in a classified analysis presented to Congress today.

Army Recruiters Say They Feel Pressure to Bend Rules

It was late September when the 21-year-old man, fresh from a three-week commitment in a psychiatric ward, showed up at an Army recruiting station in southern Ohio. The two recruiters there wasted no time signing him up, and even after the man's parents told them he had bipolar disorder - a diagnosis that would disqualify him - he was all set to be shipped to boot camp, and perhaps Iraq after that, before senior officers found out and canceled the enlistment.

Traumatic Brain Injuries in Soldiers Often Go Undetected

Since Operation Iraqi Freedom began two years ago, the Department of Defense reports that more than 1,500 U.S. soldiers have died and more than 11-thousand American troops have been wounded. Among the most debilitating wounds are traumatic brain injuries. One of the nation's leading brain treatment centers is the Veteran's Affairs hospital in Palo Alto, California. Within the confines of the sprawling VA campus, veterans of World War II and the Vietnam war work on rehabilitation alongside returning soldiers from Iraq and Afghanistan.

Whose crisis is this, anyway?

The most accurate explanation of the Bush Administration's big-government tendencies is likely a peculiar mixture of ideology, political reality, and median voter theory. But such analyses have no ability to stir men's souls, and [Andrew] Sullivan's explanation does this quite well.

Gas price demagoguery

05/04/05

Spring may well be my favorite season. But in addition to ushering in bright flowers and warmer days, it is also the season of renewed displays of economic ignorance and political demagoguery centered on everyone's favorite gripe: higher gasoline prices. When housing prices zoom upward, as they have done recently in many areas of the country, people consider this a sign of good times -- especially if you are a home owner. But when gas prices zoom upward, this is a sign of conspiracy, fraud, and 'price gouging...

The evangelical crusade marches on

05/04/05

Many religious people are, no doubt, reacting against what they perceive as the triumph of subjectivism, relativism, and nihilism in various aspects of popular culture. But in celebrating their own isolation from that culture, they make possible the further alienation of young people from a world that demands their rational engagement. Worse: the embracing of instrinsicism, which inculcates a faith-based adherence to moral 'absolutes' regardless of context, is no genuine alternative. Humane values are passed on to children and young people by appealing to their growing, yet delicate, rational faculties. Reason is the only legitimate alternative to faith and force. And teaching children to use their minds is the surest way to raise healthy and happy adults...

My kingdom for a scapegoat

05/03/05

45 days. That's all the time that passed between the attack on the World Trade Center and President Bush signing into law the USA PATRIOT Act. With little dissent, and even less actual debate, federal law enforcement agencies managed to get a huge laundry list of long coveted new powers. How did they manage to avoid debate? Besides the excellent timing of the request, many of the most intrusive measures were couched as temporary provisions needed only for the present emergency, and it was promised that they would expire at the end of 2005. Of course there was never any intention of actually letting those expirations happen...

A majority of Americans do not believe it was worth going to war in Iraq, according to a national poll released Tuesday. Fifty-seven percent of those polled said they did not believe it was worth going to war, versus 41 percent who said it was, according to a CNN/USA Today/Gallup poll of 1,006 adults. That was a drop in support from February, when 48 percent said it was worth going to war and half said it was not...

Government tested AIDS drugs on foster kids

05/04/05

Government-funded researchers tested AIDS drugs on hundreds of foster children over the past two decades, often without providing them a basic protection afforded in federal law and required by some states, an Associated Press review has found. The research, funded by the National Institutes of Health ... was most widespread in the 1990s as foster care agencies sought treatments for their HIV-infected children that weren't yet available in the marketplace. The practice ensured that foster children -- mostly poor or minority -- received care from world-class researchers at government expense, slowing their rate of death and extending their lives. But it also exposed a vulnerable population to the risks of medical research and drugs that were known to have serious side effects in adults and for which the safety for children was unknown...

There was no freedom for Shi Tao and Florence Aubenas on World Press Freedom Day, or for Dawit Isaak, or for Marie-Jeanne Ion, or for Ricardo Gonzalez Alfonso, or for ... But they were remembered Tuesday. Even in press-hostile countries, journalists held marches and sit-ins to demand an end to the threats media workers face: killings, prison, kidnapping, government censorship and other abuses. The list of reporters in jail, held hostage or killed on the job was particularly long this year -- in part because of the violence in Iraq. The number of dead is higher than it has been in a decade. ... 'This has been an extremely bad year for press freedom,' said Robert Menard, president of Reporters Without Borders. 'Of course, it's in Iraq that the majority of journalists are dying. But there also are journalists being killed in Peru, Mexico, the Philippines -- outside of war zones.' Fifty-three journalists were killed on the job in 2004, the most in a decade, the Paris- based group said...

Airline passengers to be asked for data

05/04/05

Airline passengers soon will be asked to provide their full names and birth dates when they buy tickets, information the government says it needs for a new computerized screening system. The Bush administration is moving ahead with plans to implement the system, called Secure Flight, even though concerns about privacy and other issues raised in a congressional investigation have not been fully addressed. A limited rollout of the program is set for later this year. As part of the Transportation Security Administration's effort to implement Secure Flight, the agency will, within weeks, require airlines to solicit passengers' full names and birth dates. Passengers do not have to provide it, but if they don't there's a better chance they'll have to undergo more stringent screening at the airport, said Justin Oberman, the TSA official who heads the program. Oberman said having passengers' full names and birth dates will make it less likely that they'll be confused with people who are known or suspected terrorists."[Editor's note: Gee, how about fingerprints and a retina scan?-MLS]

Vorsicht: EU-Verfassung - Ungewöhnlich scharfe Kritik wegen EU-Verfassung

http://hh-online.net/eu/

Vor Ratifizierung: Ungewöhnlich scharfe Kritik wegen EU-Verfassung (09.05.05)

Am kommenden Donnerstag wird der Deutsche Bundestag über die Ratifizierung der EU-Verfassung entscheiden. Es wird eine breite Zustimmung erwartet. In der Union wollen nach Angaben des CSU-Europapolitikers Gerd Müller etwa 20 Abgeordnete von CDU und CSU mit Nein stimmen. Vertreter der deutschen Friedensbewegung nannten die Informationspolitik der Bundesregierung "skandalös". Die Regierung würde "schönen, lügen und verschweigen". Besonders empörend sei die Weigerung der etablierten Parteien, eine Volksabstimmung über die EU-Verfassung zuzulassen. Gerade wenn landauf landab beklagt werde, dass in der Bevölkerung der europäische Einigungsgedanke unterentwickelt sei, wäre es gut gewesen, eine öffentliche Debatte über den Verfassungsvertrag in Gang zu setzen, meint der Bundesausschuss Friedensratschlag. Dessen Ansicht nach entwickelten Bürgerinnen und Bürger nur dann ein Interesse an Europa, wenn sie über "grundlegende Weichenstellungen der europäischen Politik" mitentscheiden dürften. Währenddessen hätten in Frankreich "Demokratie und Transparenz gesiegt", weil auch über die neoliberalen und militaristischen Aspekte der Verfassung offen und breit gesprochen worden sei.
