THEONGOING

WARON TERROR

ON THE FRONT LINE

When will this horrible nightmare end. It seems like it has been nonstop ten years

of fighting. When will it be time for our troops to come home? When will this pitty war end.Some say that it will end in the next three years, but who believes that line of crock. Obama promised to do his best in bringing our boys home. Well it looks like we havent seen that day yet. The war on terrorism just gets worse day by day, the front line just gets more intense. All our men want to do is come home, yet they cant because they have to fight a war that we should not be a part of.

Watching, and waitingfor a solution to this messwhile our men risk there

lives day by day. Fighting a war we dontbelong in and risking

lives that should not be risked.We need to put a stop

to the war on terror and bringour loved ones home. How

many need to be killed untilwe can come to retreat.

taking onefor our country

OSAMA BINLADEN has gone long enough on this killing spree. Its about time he takes a bullet for our country. Osama should of been killed years ago. We couldnt find him for the longest time, yet he was in his own town right beneath our feet for the past couple years. Go to hell Osama!

I have PTSD. I know when I got it — the night I killed an 8-year-old girl.

Her family was trying to cross a check-point. We’d just shot three guys who’d tried to run a checkpoint. And during that mess, they were just trying to get through to get away from it all. And we ended up shooting all them, too. It was a family of six. The only one that survived was a 13-month-old and her mother. And the worst part about it all was that where I shot my bullets, when I went to see what I’d shot at, there was an 8-year-old girl there. I tried my best to bring her back to life, but there was no use. But that’s what triggered my depression.

Three months after 9/11, every major Tal-iban city in Afghanistan had fallen — first Mazar-i-Sharif, then Kabul, finally Kan-

dahar. Osama bin Laden and Mullah Omar were on the run. It looked as if the war was over, and the Americans and their Afghan allies had won.Butch Ivie, then a school administrator in Winfield, Ala., remembers, “We thought we’d soon have it tied up in a neat little bag.”But bin Laden and Omar eluded capture. The Taliban regrouped. Today, Kandahar again is up for grabs. And soon, Afghanistan will pass Vietnam as America’s longest war.The Vietnam War’s length can be measured in many ways. The formal beginning of U.S. involvement often is dated to Aug. 7, 1964, when Congress passed the Tonkin Gulf Res-olution, giving the president a virtual carte blanche to wage war. By the time the last U.S. ground combat troops were withdrawn in March 1973, the war had lasted 103 months.

According to a study published in the New England Journal of Medicine

in 2004, 86 percent of soldiers in Iraq reported knowing someone who was seriously injured or killed there. Some 77 percent reported shooting at the en-emy; 75 percent reported seeing women or children in imminent peril and being unable to help. Fifty-one percent re-ported handling or uncovering human remains; 28 percent were responsible for the death of a noncombatant. One in five Iraq veterans return home seriously im-paired by post-traumatic stress disorder.

Some people looks at hoarding as disgusting unhealthy and just flat out wrong. Others are comfortable with the clutter, some actually enjoy it, but always remember “one mans garbage, is another mans treasure.”

The nextdisaster could be themost devastating yet.

But where willit happen?

The 2012 Apocalypse is

to a possible apocalyptic

event happening in the year

2012. We will explore the

2012 Apocalypse theories and

predictions of who or what

group may behind the inner

workings of The war to end all

wars? What acts of nature may

cause the apocalypse 2012?

What are the warning signs?

And...our interpretation of

Great Seers’ writings and

words. We will use information

from; Nostradamus, The Bible,

The Mayan Civilization, The

Many Books written on the

topic of 2012.

Beginning in 2014, you can buy into the American Health Benefit Exchange. Modeled after the FEHB, which pro-vides insurance for federal workers in-cluding members of Congress, the

Exchange is not a centralized, government-controlled plan. Instead, it is a network of choices that are offered at lower cost due to the number of people enrolled. Each state will create its own Exchange. Each Ex-change will offer a minimum of two multistate plans managed by the Of-fice of Personnel Management (the governing body of the FEHB). You

may select one of the OPM plans or any other plan in the Exchange. Most states will provide Separate Exchanges for individuals and small businesses, al-though under certain conditions occuring.

After a year of watching Congress wrangle, deal, twist and tussle over comprehensive health care reform, the Obama Administration finally released its own blue-print today. The release comes three days before a bi-partisan summit on the issue that the White House is hoping will be a game changer. The White House “plan” contains many of the same elements included in the House and Sen-ate bills already passed by Congressio-nal Democrats, but makes adjustments and adds provisions that were on the ta-ble when House and Senate Democrats were merging their bills shortly before Scott Brown was elected in Massachu-setts.Details on the plan are after the jump, but in essence, the Obama plan is the Senate bill wisome changes that the Administra-tion says can all be passed via reconciliation. Getting reform done would re-quire the House to pass the Sen-ate bill and both chambers to pass a reconciliation bill loaded with fixes, like those contained in the White House plan. The Obama plan would cost $950 billion over ten years and provide new insurance coverage for 31 million Americans. Democrats are still miles from the finish line. House Democrats are not eager to pass the Senate bill and Republicans have promised to obstruct a reconciliation bill in the Senate. Asked on a confer-ence call with reporters if the House and Senate leader-ship have signed off on the Obama plan, White House communications director Dan Pfeiffer said the plan was “informed by our discussions with House and Senate leadership…but this is the President’s proposal.” The

thing is, the President can’t make laws by himself. President Obama is hoping that by laying out a com-promise health care plan that largely resembles the House and Senate bills, Congressional Democrats will be able to join together to embrace it. By releasing this plan to-day, three days before the health care summit, the White House is trying to frame the debate until then. The plan,

just posted online here, is written in plain language. The plan includes a new federal health insurance regulatory board that will review rate increases and block those it deems unjustified. (The Obama Administra-tion is hoping to capitalize on the recent at-tention on exorbitant and unpredictable in-creases, like those from Anthem Blue Cross hikes in California.) State insurance com-missioners have the power to do this in most

places, but a new federal authority could strengthen rate regulation. The plan would eliminate the notorious and despised Corn-

husker Kickback, a special Medicaid deal awarded to Nebraska under the original Senate bill. Instead, the Obama Administra-tion’s health care plan would increase Med-icaid funding for all states. The plan would also give extra funding to states that have already expanded their Medicaid programs, even without federal prompting. This could do a lot to appease governors who have been loudly protesting the Medicaid ex-

pansion called for under Democratic reform, saying the state-federal program will eventually break their budgets. The plan delays the implementation of the excise tax on “Cadillac” health plans until 2018 and raises the threshold for which plans would get taxed. Beginning in 2018, indi-vidual plans with premiums above $10,200.

This year, more than 1 million Americans and more than 10 million people worldwide are expected to be diag-nosed with cancer, a disease commonly believed to be

preventable. Only 5–10% of all cancer cases can be attributed to genetic defects, whereas the remaining 90–95% have their roots in the environment and lifestyle. The lifestyle factors in-clude cigarette smoking, diet (fried foods, red meat), alcohol, sun exposure, environmental pollutants, infections, stress, obe-sity, and physical inactivity. The evidence indicates that of all cancer-related deaths, almost 25–30% are due to tobacco, as many as 30–35% are linked to diet, about 15–20% are due to infections, and the remaining percentage are due to other factors like radiation, stress, physical activity, environmental pollutants etc. Therefore, cancer prevention requires smoking cessation, increased ingestion of fruits and vegetables, moderate use of al-cohol, caloric restriction, exercise, avoidance of direct exposure to sunlight, minimal meat consumption, use of whole grains, use of vaccinations, and regular check-ups. In this review, we

present evidence that inflammation is the link between the agents/factors that cause cancer and the agents that prevent it. In addition, we provide evidence that cancer is a pre-ventable disease that requires major lifestyle changes.After sequencing his own genome, pioneer genomic researcher Craig Venter remarked at a leadership for the twenty-first cen-tury conference, “Human biology is actually far more compli-cated than we imagine. Everybody talks about the genes that they received from their mother and father, for this trait or the other. But in reality, those genes have very little impact on life outcomes. Our biology is way too complicated for that and deals with hundreds of thousands of independent factors. Genes are absolutely not our fate. They can give us useful information about the increased risk of a disease, but in most cases they will not determine the actual cause of the disease, or the actual inci-dence of somebody getting it. Most biology will come from the complex interaction of all the proteins and cells working with environmental factors, not driven directly by the genetic code”

Ohh, how we all love the show Its Always Sunny In Philadelphia. The halarious gang, the funny pranks and the rediculous events that take place every episode. The funny thing about the show is that its not filmed in Philadelphia. The cast comes to the city of brotherly love maybe three to four times a year. The rest of the time the show is shot in Los Angelos California. I was giving my one friend directions to meet me at my apartment one day and I accidently gave him directions that ended him up at an Its Always Sunny set. He got to see the cast and everything, and called me to say thanks for giving me the wrong driections.

but I know the real truth behind it. The sets and camera’s might fool you,
