The time to end the USA war on the people of the world is now; here is a way to start.
The time for correcting the historic excesses of the United States government & its ruling class is now. Begin by removing all tax cuts for the rich, increasing the taxes on the wealthy, and slashing the pentagon/cia/fbi/nsa budgets by ten trillion dollars (for starters) over the next decade.
At the same time, provide housing, food, and jobs to all our people who need such; offer a progressive program designed to lift the majority of the unemployed/poor into productive areas of human endeavor such as helping prisoners to at once legally escape their jail cells and to gain counseling for all where needed.
Commence criminal investigations against the fbi/cia/police/pentagon torturers and assassins and hold all government officials & private persons ( including doctors, lawyers, nurses, and others) responsible for high crimes.
In the state of California, where a state budget has yet to be passed, state employees are facing a huge pay cut. California’s governor has asked that all paychecks be cut to federal minimum wage until a spending budget is passed. Some banks and credit unions are offering a emergency money to these employees, including no-interest installment payday loans.
The state of California hadn’t passed a spending budget when their fiscal year began on July 1. The State of California is going to be facing a $ 19.1 billion budget deficit if they don’t pass a spending budget. Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger ordered that all 200,000 state employees have their wages reduced to minimum wage until a budget is passed. State Controller John Chiang issued a statement saying that worker wages cannot be reduced until the state budget system is totally overhauled -- something that will take at least two years and a number of million dollars.
Banks and credit unions offer employee “impasse” loans
Several large banks and small credit unions, including Wells Fargo and Bank of The US, are offering no fax quick payday loans called "budget impasse loans". There’s no credit check and no interest on these “impasse” loans. These loans either provide money or extended credit to state employees. When the state spending budget is passed, employees could be given a retroactive payment that they can use to pay down these impasse loans.
If you are reading this article you obviously you have college tuition costs to pay and you want to know how to get the best bang for your buck.
Tuition Costs are at record highs and the economy is in the dumper. This places us under an incredible amount of stress and anxiety trying to figure out HOW to pay college tuition costs that are growing every year?
A four year college education can cost, in some cases, OVER $200,000!
Here is what I did to get the maximum funding through grants and scholarship for my students and I have three in college AT THE SAME TIME! Listen, if you’re seriously concerned about how you are going to pay for college tuition let me tell you what I did and what resources I used to make getting the most possible free college tuition possible.
I started out doing what most of us do; I paid for my first Childs tuition in full out of pocket for the first semester. After that shocker I decided to apply for a student loan. However, after realizing that either my daughter or I would be responsible for, somewhere in the neighborhood of $180,000, just for one of my children, I knew I had to do something and do it quickly, before the next semester.
So I hit the internet, the library and the book stores. I found some great information through those sources and discovered that there were a lot of grants and scholarships to pay college tuition costs; however, it was always a hassle to make the phone calls, wait on hold and then go through the same details time and again.

This is a statement from Negotiation is Over (NIO) which has chapters in many states please feel free to check out the web site http://negotiationisover.com/.
I repost this here as an active member of the NIO editorial collective and look forward to future action here in Colorado.
An action is currently underway at a courthouse in Marysville, Ohio to disrupt the legal system that legimates animal torture, constrains activism, and excuses the real terrorists.
For Immediate Release
September 8, 2010
6:00 a.m. EST
Three animal rights activists, editors of the website Negotiation Is Over!, have begun a civil disobedience demonstration at the courthouse where Billy Joe Gregg evaded his hearing in Marysville, Ohio this morning. Jody Sidote, Agatha Maksymiak, and Camille Marino come fromdivere professional backgrounds but share an array of concerns about agribusiness. The three activists were compelled to put their bodies on the machine today in order to use their voices to speak for all hidden and terrified victims of the dairy industry.
FLORIDA – September 1, 2010 – Last weekend Youth for Human Rights Florida President, Dustin McGahee, joined human rights defenders at the 7th Annual Youth for Human Rights International Summit, in support of making the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights widely known and used. Held in the United Nations Palais des Nations in Geneva, the event was also attended by youth from more than 30 countries and over 60 UN Diplomats.
The UN Resolution proclaiming August 2010-2011 the “Year of Youth” was honored as part of the Summit’s theme. The Summit opened with a procession of the youth delegates carrying the flag of their respective nations. McGahee, who was the Youth for Human Rights International (YHRI) USA Delegate in 2009, came back this year as an International Youth Ambassador, and spoke at the UN Building to the Youth Delegates and UN Diplomats, about the activities of Youth for Human Rights members from across the globe. These young advocates have been busy not only educating others in schools and universities across the world, but also at events such as European auto races, World Cup Festivals, summer camps, soccer games, and concerts.
One of the most notable events created by the Youth for Human Rights Delegates was the “International Walk for Human Rights”, on United Nations Human Rights Day 2009, originated and spearheaded by Florida’s YHR President, Dustin McGahee. Using the power of the Internet, these youth created a historical event where over 20 countries and nearly 10,000 people joined forces to bring about the awareness of the need of human rights education and actions. McGahee said, “Creating this walk was possible by a gathering of youth at the Geneva Summit last year where filled with energy and camaraderie a diverse group of young people from around the world shared a desire to help others know and use their intrinsic human rights.”
Santa Fe National Forest, NM (July 31, 2009) - When Hurricane Katrina hit the Gulf Coast in 2005, a grassroots emergency relief effort was born out of dedicated volunteers with years of experience working at outdoor kitchens and medical stations at Rainbow gatherings. Their prompt mobilization to the Gulf Coast fully equipped with supplies, know-how and ingenuity tremendously helped victims survive and recover from one of America’s most epic disasters. Their accomplishments were recognized all the way to the highest level of government, the Bush administration’s White House. In May 2008, these intrepid volunteers accepted an invitation and attended a function in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building within the White House complex, where they were thanked for their work. Some of these same volunteers are currently enjoying their visit to this year’s Rainbow Gathering being held in New Mexico’s magnificent Santa Fe National Forest, now in its final phase of “clean-up.”
In late August 2005 when these skilled Rainbow gatherers saw people literally dying on television after the hurricane hit and no one was helping them, they sprung into action. Familiar with surviving quite well for extended time periods with no running water or electricity in the woods, they first headed to Waveland, MS – where there had been a 32-foot storm surge – and set up a huge relief center in the parking lot of Fred’s Department Store across the street from the Waveland Police Department. From there more Rainbow volunteers branched out to New Orleans and quickly built another center in Washington Park that ran simultaneously with the one in Waveland.

In another focused assault upon the scourge of drugs in our Tampa Bay communities, the local chapter of the Foundation for a Drug-Free World, an international educational organization established to empower individuals with factual information about drugs, mobilized their volunteers to hand out more than 6,000 booklets this past weekend.
These ten different drug education booklets delineate, in detailed but understandable term, the effects of all common illegal street drugs, as well as many prescription drugs when abused.
Each booklet covers one specific drug, such as heroin, cocaine, painkillers, marijuana and even alcohol. Each is written in a simple and straightforward manner that leads the reader to make a rational decision not to use or abuse drugs based on facts and not just an emotional pitch.
The Foundation for a Drug-Free World is a world leader in drug education. In addition to hosting regular drug awareness events in countries across the globe, the Foundation sponsors public service announcements on television and other public venues that feature young people speaking about the dangers of drugs in the language of their peers.
More than 56 million copies of the drug education booklets have been distributed all told and this weekend’s local push was part of a synchronized international effort to hand out 500,000 more.
L. Ron Hubbard, whose developments in the field of drug rehabilitation are used by the effective “Narconon” program, once said that, “The acceleration of widespread use of drugs has contributed heavily to a debilitated society. The drug scene is planet-wide. It is swimming in blood and human misery.”

There was a highway banner protest today at the Fort Collins / Windsor exit and I-25. Highway patrol approached us and we told the officer we are within our rights to hold the banner as long as we don't attach it to anything, it doesn't hang over the freeway and we are not blocking traffic. After initially telling us we had to leave, he later agreed with us that we were with in our rights to be there. (He checked with his supervisor to confirm what we told him).
The protest is about the re-defining of Corporations with the same rights as human beings with the ability to flood our political system with money thereby corrupting democracy. May 10th is the 127th anniversary of the Santa Clara vs. Southern Pacific Railroad decision established that a railroad corporation possessed equal protection "rights" identical to living human beings under the 14th Amendment of the Constitution. The 14th Amendment was a post-Civil War decision specifically intended to apply to freed slaves.
Move to amend Fort Collins will continue to organize with the aim of establishing a grass roots movement that will eventually be able to purge our political system of the corruptive / corrosive influence of money. Many people involved in Move to amend and Move to amend Fort Collins have been involved in the Occupy movement and realize that Corporate power is only one aspect of a sick and dysfunctional system that must be changed.
Pentagon Loses Court Case over Refusal to Release Names of SOA/ WHINSEC Graduates
Oakland, CA – In a rare reflection of judicial independence, United States District Judge Phyllis J. Hamilton from the Northern District of California ordered the Pentagon to release the names of who trains and teaches at the Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Cooperation (SOA/WHINSEC), a U.S. military training school for Latin American soldiers that has been connected to torturers, death squads and military dictators throughout the Americas. Human rights activists had taken the U.S. government to court over its refusal to release the information, and won.
Read the court ruling here: SOAW.org/judgment
SOA Watch compiled the names, course, rank, country of origin, and dates attended for every soldier and instructor at the SOA/ WHINSEC from 1946 to 2003. After researchers exposed many cases of known human rights abusers attending the WHINSEC (despite claims that the "new" school was committed to human rights), and shared this research with Congressional decision-makers, the Department of Defense (DOD) refused to disclose any future information about students or teachers at the WHINSEC. The human rights community and the U.S. Congress did not agree with the decision. In 2008 and 2009, the House of Representatives passed an amendment to the Defense Authorization bill demanding that the DOD release this information. President Obama signed this measure into law. However, SOA/ WHINSEC supporters in Congress managed to slip in the caveat that Secretary of Defense Robert Gates could issue a waiver to ignore the public's right to know and refuse to release the information, if he "determines it to be in the national interest." Predictably, Obama's Secretary of Defense used the waiver to deny human rights organizations and the public access to any more information.

Yesterday, two holdout vulture funds, including Paul Singer’s NML Capital, were in a New York Federal court versus Argentina. The Financial Times has dubbed the proceeding the “‘the trial of the century’ in sovereign debt restructuring.” After the hearing, judges at the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said that will issue their ruling in the coming weeks.
Jubilee USA Network is bringing attention to the effect that this case could have on poor countries: “If these vulture hedge funds win, it will mean they will more aggressively target poor countries in fragile financial recovery. If we win, it will mean that it will be harder for vulture funds to target the monies that develop social infrastructure in many poor countries,” said Eric LeCompte, Jubilee USA Network’s Executive Director.
The faith community and other groups, organized by Jubilee USA, held a vigil in concern for poor people affected by vulture funds during the proceeding outside the hearing. Vigils also took place in London and Buenos Aires.
In 2001, when Argentina defaulted on roughly $81 billion, NML Capital purchased some of Argentina’s debt on a secondary market. When Argentina defaulted, they restructured with some of their creditors in 2005 and 2010 but holdout creditors, led by NML Capital, rejected the proposal and sued Argentina for the full amount in NY courts – thus, naming NML Capital a holdout vulture fund. Vulture funds buy the debt of poor countries or countries in financial recovery for pennies on the dollar and then sue to make as much as a 400% profit off the backs of the poor. Jubilee USA Network introduced bipartisan legislation in 2009 to stop vulture funds from making a profit off of poor countries.
Pro-choice Production Offers New Venue for Social Justice in an Engaging Activism Based Theater Experience
“Words of Choice,” a dynamic pro-choice theater piece is bringing its show to New York City this March in honor of Women’s History Month and the 40th anniversary of Roe v. Wade. In addition to the two performances, the show is available via live-streaming to audiences across the nation and the globe.
“Words of Choice” weaves together dozens of stories of reproductive rights through poetry, spoken word, oral history, theater and journalism. It is performed by three actors, and showcases a variety of serious, comedic and contemplative pieces. As part of the first-ever WiredArts Fest, Words of Choice will be showcased to hundreds of activists with the shared goal of reproductive and social justice.
“Women’s rights and reproductive freedoms are still under attack. As activists and ambassadors of change, everyone involved with Words of Choice is committed to moving public sentiment and influencing policy makers. We created this event because the use of theater is a way to transmit the pro-choice message, opening hearts and minds, and empowering the movement for women’s full equality and rights,” said Cindy Cooper, creator of Words of Choice.
“Words of Choice” will be performed on March 1 at 7 pm EST and March 2 at 3 pm EST at The Secret Theater in Long Island City. As part of the WiredArts Fest, the live streaming audience will be able to participate simultaneously with tweeting, instant messaging, photo shots and Facebook. After the shows a panel discussion will take place to discuss the pieces and the state of reproductive and social justice.
"I don't agree with only one of the words you say, but I will defend to the death your right to do so!"(Voltaire),
It is controversial the relationship between freedom of expression and the degree of development of societies.
Many seek to justify the repressive character of the current regimes as a price that must be paid for achieving progress.
Throughout history, however, people fought and died for the right to speak, to question, to publish.
Specifically we found, to our great relief, that the more developed societies are precisely those who managed broader and unquestioned freedom of expression.
However, there are difficulties everywhere, because everywhere there are those who use free speech as a weapon of war, war itself, political war and commercial war.
It is no coincidence that in many countries today, people debate legislation on the subject. This is the case of our neighboring republic, Argentina, to name just one instance.
In Brazil we have a history of abuse and arbitrariness: from the most vile censorship, like that practiced during the "military dictatorship*", even dishonest and virulent attacks carried out by sectors of the press, against institutions, citizens and even banks.
Who does not remember the school closed in São Paulo, for alleged sexual abuse against children? Or a known and respected politician who had his reputation soiled and took years and many slow lawsuits to reestablish the truth? And a certain large bank, labeled as "broken" by a magazine of great circulation, to then face really great difficulties caused by those malicious news and to end (badly) sold?
The White House Tuesday rebuked Israel for officially endorsing 1,500 new Jewish residences in Arab East Jerusalem, saying the action makes suspicious Israel’s pledge to peace talks and an independent Palestinian state. A number of European Union countries also condemned the Israeli move.
“We are deeply disappointed that Israel insists on continuing this pattern of provocative action,” State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland said, according to the Washington Post. “These repeated announcements and plans of new construction run counter to the cause of peace. Israel’s leaders continually say that they support a path toward a two-state solution, yet these actions only put that goal further at risk.”
The Palestinians recently said that they expect all of the UN Security Council members, excluding the US, to denounce Israel's fresh announcements of constructing new homes in East Jerusalem.
The Obama administration’s statement delivered an unusual but hard blow to Israel, its top Midle East ally. However, Israelis think the US would not support a Security Council resolution or statement.
"(T)he confirmation process would be lengthy, disruptive, and costly -- to you and to our most pressing national and international priorities. That trade-off is simply not worth it to our country." -- Susan RiceSusan Rice, letter to President Obama
CNN is reporting that Susan Rice, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, has “voluntarily” withdrawn her name from consideration as Hillary Clinton’s successor as secretary of state.
Rice has been under heavy, repeated, unrelenting, and unwarranted criticism from Republicans and right wing media over statements she made following the September attacks on the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya. Those attacks took the lives of the Ambassador to Libya, Chris Stevens, and three other CIA operatives.
Her withdrawal came in the form of a letter dated Thursday, Dec. 13, 2012 to President Barack Obama. Here is the complete text of Rice's letter to the President. Obama promptly described Rice as "an extraordinarily capable, patriotic, and passionate public servant."
Clinton has said in the past that she would relinquish her office immediately upon the confirmation of a successor.
