  Bullying
    Bullying email
      Glad you are listening, for tomorrow you will be embarassed about your profession as I reveal yet another agenda of the bullying meme....
      It is being used to cover up child suicides due to use of drugs like prozac.
      Now, on the censorship issue...
      Just when does it stop, at what age is bullying no longer a crime? after the teenage years? Or is it ok when that teen is a celebrity like Justin Bieber? Is it ok for him to be made fun of by talk show hosts and even politicians?
      Just how does that work legally?
      Do you think a kid like him, or any other underage star(let) has some super powers that shields them from the same hurt? Or do they just deserve what they get because they (supposedly) are getting paid to accept the abuse?
      Thanks for giving me yet more ammo for tomorrow's show!

    Suicide of Phoebe Prince - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
      The suicide of Phoebe Prince, on January 14, 2010, led to the criminal prosecution of six teenagers for charges including statutory rape and civil rights violations,[1] as well as to the enactment of stricter anti-bullying legislation by the Massachusetts state legislature.[2]
    The Truth Behind the Phoebe Prince Suicide | The Stir
      Bazelon's research reveals that before Phoebe arrived in the States, she began cutting herself in 2008 while having troubles with other girls in boarding school in Ireland and was ultimately pulled out by her mother who sought professional help for her. That help came in the form of the antidepressant Prozac.
      Phoebe then moved to the States from her former home in Ireland in September -- just four months before her suicide -- with her sister and her mother who had just split from her father. Her father stayed in Ireland, and it's revealed that Phoebe deeply missed him.-
      After trouble started at South Hadley between Phoebe and other students, she was reevaluated and prescribed Seroquel, a drug used to treat mood disorders. But when Phoebe fell into relationship with the wrong guy -- one with an ex-girlfriend waiting in the wings -- and told the ex about her sexual relationship with the guy, things got ugly. When he tried to break off the relationship completely, Phoebe swallowed the bottle of Seroquel in a suicide attempt and ended up hospitalized for the next week.
      Even up until the days before she committed suicide, Phoebe continued with cutting her own body in an attempt to relieve her emotional pain. Add what sounds like a little promiscuity and misplaced emotional attachments and possibly alcohol and marijuana use to the barrel, and you have a case for one very emotionally disturbed girl.

    FDA Study Links Antidepressants, Teen Suicide
      All Things Considered, August 20, 2004 ¬… The Food and Drug Administration releases a long-awaited analysis of the possible risks posed by antidepressants to children and teens. The study comes on the heels of a report published earlier this week that showed Prozac can help alleviate depression in adolescents, but also raises the risk of suicidal behaviors.
      The new FDA analysis similarly concludes that young patients taking antidepressants could be at increased risk for self harm.
    Gov. Rick Snyder says before he was a 'tough nerd,' he was a victim of bullying | MLive.com
      It wasn't an easy path, as senators approved a House version after their own measure drew national attention after Democrats called it "a license to bully" because of provisions that said students could not be punished for "a statement of a sincerely-held religious belief or moral conviction of a school employee, school volunteer, pupil, or a pupil's parent or guardian."
      Democrats have argued that the law could do more to protect students, especially those in the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community.
      The final version said law says no child should be bullied for any reason.
      "Bullying is bullying," Snyder said. "It's wrong and bad. It's unacceptable in any context and in all circumstances."

    EU summit to push forward ESM to 2012-euro zone official | Reuters
      European Union leaders are likely to decide on Thursday and Friday to bring forward the launch date of the euro zone's permanent bailout fund, the European Stability Mechanism (ESM), to 2012 from the initially planned mid-2013, a senior euro zone official said.

      Treaty establishing the European Stability Mechanism (ESM) signed - ECFIN - European Commission
        On 11 July, finance ministers of the 17 euro-area countries signed the Treaty establishing the European Stability Mechanism (ESM). The Treaty follows the European Council decision of 25 March 2011 and builds on an amendment of Article 136 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU).
        In July 2013, the ESM will assume the tasks currently fulfilled by the European Financial Stability Facility (EFSF) and the European Financial Stabilisation Mechanism (EFSM). Although the Treaty was signed by the 17 euro-area countries, the ESM will also be open to non-euro area EU countries for ad hoc participation in financial assistance operations.
      ESM, the new European dictator! - Secrets behind world events - Researches and analyses
        On 11 July 2011 the treaty was signed. Although the signature has been made public later that day, directly at the opening of a press conference with dozens of journalists, the next day there was not a single headline in the newspapers (not nationally, nor internationally) about the signature of this new European Treaty. Would it have been caused by the fact that Juncker announced it in French... before continuing the conference in English?
        At the moment the ESM treaty awaits ratification by the national Parliaments of the euro-zone countries. The ratifications are expected between today and 31 December 2011.

      1. Tightening credit conditions across the eurozone;
      2. Markedly higher risk premiums on a growing number of eurozone sovereigns, including some that are currently rated 'AAA';
      3. Continuing disagreements among European policy makers on how to tackle the immediate market confidence crisis and, longer term, how to ensure greater economic, financial, and fiscal convergence among eurozone members;
      4. High levels of government and household indebtedness across a large area of the eurozone; and
      5. The rising risk of economic recession in the eurozone as a whole in 2012. Currently, we expect output to decline next year in countries such as Spain, Portugal and Greece, but we now assign a 40% probability of a fall in output for the eurozone as a whole.
    EU Fiscal Union = EU Debt Serfdom - BlackListedNews.com
      "Fiscal union" is a code-phrase for a highly profitable debt-serfdom: the banks profit, the EU bureaucracy flourishes and the people of the EU are imprisoned in a modern serfdom.
      The stock and bond markets are gearing up to celebrate the EU's approval this Friday of "fiscal union," the necessary surrender of sovereignty that's needed to seal the bondage of the EU's hapless citizenry to the banks and the lapdog bureaucrats slavishly devoted to their dominance.

    European nations could lose powers, EC head's memo says - CNN.com
      European nations could be penalized by being stripped of some powers if they fail to manage their budgets, according to a memo from European Commission President Herman Van Rompuy leaked Tuesday.
      For "member states that are under an assistance program and have consistently failed to meet the conditionality, the (European) Commission could receive exceptional power such as ex-ante approval of all major economic reforms," the document says.
      The confidential memo, sent out to leaders ahead of the final European Council meeting of the year at the end of the week, comes only a day after the leaders of Germany and France agreed in Paris on a new fiscal pact they say will help prevent another debt crisis.
    EU To Seize Control Over National Economies With Stroke of a Pen -- www.infowars.com -- Readability
      Having repeatedly staged national referendums until they got the vote they wanted, the Lisbon Treaty was passed with a provision, the obscure 'passerelle' clause, Art. 126 (14) via protocol 12, that bestowed upon Brussels the power to change its terms without any kind of vote whatsoever -- popular or parliamentary.
      "This decision does not require ratification at national level. This procedure could therefore lead to rapid and significant changes," according to a confidential text issued by EU President Herman Van Rompuy.
      This means that any effort to change the treaty in order to create a "fiscal union," or in other words, impose centralized control over every member state's economy from Brussels, would simply be accomplished with the stroke of a pen and would not involve votes from any national parliament or any MEP.
    Nederlandse huishoudens grootste schuldenaars binnen Europa! | Slim Beleggen
      Terwijl de overheden in landen als Portugal, Ierland en Griekenland bezwijken onder hun schuldenlast, staan de gezinnen in die landen er qua schuldenlast opmerkelijk beter voor.
      De Europese huishoudens met de hoogste schuldenlast wonen namelijk in Nederland! Met name de gigantische hypotheken zorgen ervoor de Nederlandse gezinnen met +/-250% schuld versus hun inkomen de grootste schuldenaars binnen Europa zijn.
      De lage werkloosheid houdt Nederland vooralsnog overeind, maar een forse daling van de huizenprijzen, een stijging van de rente of een oplopende werkloosheid kan snel voor problemen zorgen.

  NDAA
    Behind Closed Doors: Congress Trying to Force Indefinite Detention Bill on Americans >> Blog of Rights: Official Blog of the American Civil Liberties Union
      Now, the two bills are in conference committee. The chairmen and ranking members of the Armed Services Committee -- known as "the Big Four" -- have been having one secret meeting after another over the past few days to quickly write a final bill. Who are the Big Four? From the Senate, it is Sens. Carl Levin (D-Mich.) and John McCain (R-Ariz.) who were the very two who had secretly written the Senate indefinite detention provisions. The third member is the House Armed Services Committee Chairman Buck McKeon (R-Calif.), who is the person who wrote the House indefinite detention provisions without so much as a hearing. And the fourth member is the House Armed Services Committee Ranking Member Adam Smith (D-Wash.), who courageously fought the indefinite detention provisions on the House floor.
      That's 3-1 for indefinite military imprisonment without charge or trial. There's good reason to worry about what the Big Four do in their secret meetings.
      What happens next? First, there will be a more formal House-Senate conference in the next few days to put an official stamp of approval on what the Big Four wrote in secret. And then the bills will be on the floors of the House and Senate by early next week.
      Their plan is to move very, very fast. Congress certainly has earned a reputation for being slow, but the plan for the NDAA is to jam it through the House and Senate with as little debate as possible.
    Texas Senators Vote to Legalize Sex with Animals in National Defense Authorization Act | Texas GOP Vote
      The National Defense Authorization Act includes a provision to repeal Article 125 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ).
      Article 125 of the UCMJ makes it illegal to engage in both sodomy with humans and sex with animals.
      It states: "(a) Any person subject to this chapter who engages in unnatural carnal copulation with another person of the same or opposite sex or with an animal is guilty of sodomy. Penetration, however slight, is sufficient to complete the offense. (b) Any person found guilty of sodomy shall be punished as a court-martial may direct."

    Oblivious Supreme Court poised to legalize medical patents
      The Supreme Court on Wednesday heard oral arguments in a case that raises a fundamental question: whether a physician can infringe a patent merely by using scientific research to inform her treatment decisions.
      Unfortunately, this issue was barely mentioned in Wednesday's arguments. A number of influential organizations had filed briefs warning of the dire consequences of allowing medical patents, but their arguments were largely ignored in the courtroom. Instead, everyone seemed to agree that medical patents were legal in general, and focused on the narrow question of whether the specific patent in the case was overly broad.

    Recent Charges Of Sexual Abuse Of Children In Hollywood Just Tip Of Iceberg, Experts Say | Fox News
      Arngrim, who revealed her own sexual abuse in her 2010 autobiography, "Confessions of a Prairie Bitch," explains: "I've heard from victims from all over the country. Everyone tells the same kind of story, everyone is told to keep it secret, everyone is threatened with something. Corey Feldman may have opened a can of worms by speaking out, but yes, this does go on."
      Even though Feldman spoke candidly about the abuse, he hasn't named the predator. "People don't want to talk about this because they're afraid for their careers," says Peterson. "From my perspective, what Corey did was pretty brave. It would be really wonderful if his allegations reached through all of the protective layers and identified the real people who are a part of a worldwide child pornography ring, because it's huge and it respects no borders, just as it does not respect the age of the children involved."

    Haiti: The next Caribbean vacation getaway? - USATODAY.com
      Just two years after an earthquake devastated vast areas of Haiti, its president is vowing to promote tourism as a way to break the nation's dependence on foreign aid, AFP reports.
      Even before the January 2010 disaster killed about 225,000 and devastated much of its capital city of Port au Prince, Haiti's image was more intertwined with poverty and corruption than sunny delights and cultural riches. But President Michel Martelly told the news agency that "we have a very rich and diversified culture, we have beautiful sights, a historical past. We have the most beautiful coast."
      Obviously, the island nation first needs to get its infrastructure in place. But Martelly, in office for just seven months, said he believes once investors realize the island's potential as a tourist spot, they'll "come to Haiti and rebuild Haiti."
      If this were to happen, would the island make your vacation short list?

    Lunar Eclipse Saturday
      TOTAL LUNAR ECLIPSE
      by Brian Webb
      If the sky is clear, observers in the Southwest can see the first stages of a total
      lunar eclipse on the morning of Saturday, December 10. Varying portions of the event
      will also be visible across much of the globe.
      The eclipse officially begins at 03:33 PST when the Moon's orbit begins taking the
      Moon into the Earth's penumbra, or outer shadow. During this phase of the eclipse,
      the Moon will be very slightly shaded, but the effect will be too subtle for most
      people to notice.
      The eclipse's partial phase begins at 04:45 PST, when the Moon begins entering the
      Earth's umbra, or inner shadow. At first, a small, black dent will appear on the
      Moon's limb. The dent will then slowly grow and advance across the Moon's face.
      Totality begins at 06:06 PST when the Moon completely enters the umbra. For the next
      51 minutes, a portion of the sunlight from the Earth¹s day side will be refracted,
      or bent, around the Earth by the atmosphere and directed into the umbra. The light
      will give the normally white Moon a dull copper color.
      Unfortunately, the brightening of the sky and the setting of the Moon will prevent
      observers in the Southwest from seeing the entire event. Generally, the further you
      move to the west-northwest, the more of the eclipse you will see. For example, for
      observers in New Mexico, totality begins around moonset. On California's Central
      Coast, however, more of the event will be visible with the Moon setting around the
      end of totality.
      To see Saturday's eclipse, all you'll need are a clear sky, the naked eye, and a
      vantage point with an unobstructed view of the western horizon. Selecting a viewing

    The biggest scam of all time
      This situation sickens me.- The big offshore record companies funded a group MUSIC FIRST and then SOUND EXCHANGE to essentially get more money from their library of songs recorded over the years.- If you play BOOM BOOM BOOM by John Lee Hooker you have to pay to play what I bought back in 1963 then for 89 cents.- Now we are told that the poor musicians need more payment.- At my studio we paid the American Federation of Musicians scale for each 3 hours and paid into their retirement fund.- Depending on the deals they could have gotten a piece of sales money or whatever.- However professional musicians get a pension and social security.-
