Nearly 17,000 chemicals remain corporate secrets – even the EPA doesn’t know what they are
Natural News The 1976 Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) requires that manufacturers of products containing potentially toxic chemicals disclose their ingredients to the federal government, however a loophole in the requirement allows manufacturers to arbitrarily withhold information that they deem sensitive to their business. As a result, over 17,000 product chemicals remain secret not only from the public but from government officials. Each year, over 700 new chemicals are introduced by manufacturers, many of which do not get disclosed either to the public or to government agencies. About 95 percent of new chemical notices submitted to the government request some kind of secrecy. Critics allege that manufacturers are exploiting the original intent of TSCA, abusing it to hide sensitive information about ingredients that are likely toxic and may otherwise get banned ... |
No Help in Sight, More Homeowners Walk Away
New York Times
Wednesday, February 3, 2010
In 2006, Benjamin Koellmann bought a condominium in Miami Beach. By his calculation, it will be about the year 2025 before he can sell his modest home for what he paid. Or maybe 2040.
“People like me are beginning to feel like suckers,” Mr. Koellmann said. “Why not let it go in default and rent a better place for less?”
After three years of plunging real estate values, after the bailouts of the bankers and the revival of their million-dollar bonuses, after the Obama administration’s loan modification plan raised the expectations of many but satisfied only a few, a large group of distressed homeowners is wondering the same thing.
New research suggests that when a home’s value falls below 75 percent of the amount owed on the mortgage, the owner starts to think hard about walking away, even if he or she has the money to keep paying.

The Myth of the Humane Society of the United States
04 Feb 2010
By: John Dillard
University of Richmond Law School
I recently viewed a commercial for the Humane Society of the United States. It contained footage of pets suffering from abuse. The footage of dirty cats with split ears to dogs visibly suffering from neglect and malnourishment was intended to tug at the heartstrings of anyone with half a heart. In addition to the animal footage, the commercial featured the lady from Just Shoot Me asking the viewers to commit to a $19 monthly pledge to help save these animals from abuse and neglect. The funds raised by the ad campaign would ostensibly be used to fund animal rescue efforts and animal adoption services.
For less than a dollar a day, it seems like a common sense move for a pet lover with disposable income to contribute to the HSUS. Who doesn't like the idea of an organization dedicated to rescuing animals from neglect?
There is one minor detail left out of these commercials. The Humane Society of the United States is not a large network of animal shelters, as it would have you to believe. In fact, the HSUS does not own, operate, or lease a single animal shelter in our country. Instead, it is primarily a special interest lobby that is clever and shrewd enough to capitalize on the good name of local "humane societies" which actually do the good work of taking in strays and finding suitable adoptive homes for unwanted pets.
While most local animal shelters scrimp and scrape to collect enough funds to cover overhead, the HSUS has a healthy budget of well over $100 million. According to their most recent annual report (2008), $6.7 million, or 5.4% of their $125 million budget was spent on animal shelters. The bulk of the balance was spent on fundraising, campaigns, lawsuits, propaganda, and those people that stand outside the D.C. Metro who stop you and ask "Do you have a minute to talk about saving animals?"

Sioux City Meatpacking Plant closing - costing 1,450 jobs State and local officials are discussing options for buying a Sioux City meatpacking plant that's closing this spring. John Frew, Governor Chet Culver's chief of staff, says Sioux City lawmakers have approached him about options for buying the 51-year-old John Morrell & Co. plant so the building can be torn down and the area redeveloped. Frew told The Associated Press on Thursday there are a variety of ways the state or local governments could buy the plant, but it's too early to specify those options. Officials at John Morrell, a subsidiary of Smithfield, Va.-based Smithfield Foods Inc., announced last week they would close the pork processing plant, costing 1,450 jobs. wowt.com Source: newsroom - meattradenewsdaily.co.uk |
The Defense Budget – New York Times
February 4, 2010
The New York Times is inching back slowly to its base progressive readership. Today in an editorial entitled The Defense Budget the Times tells the President that he must start cutting from Defense outlays in order to balance the budget.
It is a tepid call for defense cuts, but it is a call nonetheless for less money for guns and more for butter. Thank the heavens, the Times has found reason again.
For a few months now the New York Times has been uncharacteristically hawkish on the wars overseas and the defense outlays that go with these ridiculous and unnecessary “wars” where no one is expected to win but the war industry captains, the emerging market manipulators and the energy cartel moguls.
Many of us suspect foreign influence on the editorial board. That is all I will say at the moment about that.
Somehow or other, the Times is coming home; slowly, but coming home nonetheless. We’ve missed you NYT. We will take you to the woodshed over this later, right now we are glad that you are starting to walk back home toward progressive thinking on this murderous and completely ridiculous set of “wars” that do not serve any possible or clearly defined American defense need.

America at WarCowardly Congress Thinks Backing White House Plays It Safe VeteransToday.com February 4, 2010 While the Constitution’s Article I, Section 8, invests Congress with the power “to declare War,” the law school dean points out this has been largely ignored since President Harry Truman in 1950 “de facto changed the Constitution so that not the Congress, but the President, and he alone, makes the decision on war.” “From Korea, to the Tonkin Gulf Resolution, to the 2002 Congressional Resolution which said to (President) Bush II that he alone should decide whether and whom to fight, the decision on war has been the President’s in fact,” Velvel writes. He points out, however, “the framers deliberately intended it to be for Congress because they felt, as has now come true, that the Executive is too prone to get into wars. The shifting of the power to decide on war has been a de facto Constitutional revolution.” |

In April 2001, the Cessna with Jim and Veronica Bowers and their two children aboard was mistaken for a drug smuggling plane by the Peruvian Air Force, which was working with the CIA on an anti-narcotics mission. A Peruvian gunship fired on the small aircraft. It burst into flames but managed an emergency landing along a stretch of the Amazon River. Veronica Bowers and her daughter were killed by gunfire. Jim Bowers and their 6-year-old son, Cory, survived, along with the pilot, Kevin Donaldson. In the moments leading up to the crash, CIA operatives and Peruvian officials did not follow strict rules of engagement, ABC reported. The military pilots failed to identify the Cessna from its tail number and did not order the plane to follow them and land. The CIA announced Wednesday its nine-year investigation found that 16 CIA employees should be disciplined, including the agent then in charge of counternarcotics. Many of the agents no longer work for the CIA. "If there's ever an example of justice delayed, justice denied, this is it," said Rep. Pete Hoekstra, (R-Mich.), ranking minority member of the House Intelligence Committee. "The [intelligence] community's performance in terms of accountability has been unacceptable. These were Americans that were killed with the help of their government, the community covered it up, they delayed investigating." In a statement to ABC, a CIA spokesperson placed the blame for the incident on the Peruvian Air Force, and said the agency's own internal review had shown no evidence of a cover up. Intelligence chief acknowledges U.S. may target Americans involved in terrorism Director of National Intelligence Dennis C. Blair acknowledged Wednesday that government agencies may kill U.S. citizens abroad who are involved in terrorist activities if they are "taking action that threatens Americans. Senate Burglary: CIA Domestic Black-Op Team Arrested Last week’s breakin at Senator Mary Landrieu’s office in the New Orleans Federal Building was more than it seemed, much more.

Problem is, his skills were being used as part of a criminal conspiracy inside the United States against members of our own government. Pentagon's Black Budget Tops $56 Billion The Defense Department just released its king-sized, $708 billion budget for the next fiscal year. Much of the proposed spending is fairly detailed — noting exactly how many helicopters the Pentagon plans to buy and how many troops it plans on playing. But about $56 billion goes simply to “classified programs,” or to projects known only by their code names, like “Chalk Eagle” and “Link Plumeria.” That’s the Pentagon’s black budget. |

Taiwan - With 1,500 tons of US beef recalled in January the USA have to clean up their act Meat Trade Daily February 4, 2010 The US will consider appealing to the WTO to resolve the row with Taiwan over US beef imports, Deputy US Trade Representative Demetrios Marantis said on Thursday in Washington. Speaking at the Center for Strategic International Studies, Marantis said the Taiwanese legislature’s about-face on imports of US beef had “effaced sound science and effaced the protocol Taiwan and the US had negotiated,” and that he was very disappointed with the outcome. He said that US beef was consistent with standards set by the World Organization for Animal Health and that Taiwan’s decision had no scientific basis. He made the same response when asked about the bans on US beef imports in South Korea and Japan. A report quoted the US trade representative as saying the US was contemplating using all possible means to resolve its differences with Taiwan, including the WTO court. Marantis was non-committal on when Trade and Investment Framework Agreement (TIFA) talks with Taiwan would be held. The US has made clear its stance and the ball was in Taiwan’s court on how to approach the issue, he said, adding that Taiwan’s reputation as an international trading partner has been tarnished by the disagreement over beef. The report said Canada also considered taking Taiwan to the WTO court for refusing to lift a ban on Canadian bone-in beef while giving the US the green light. Earlier this week, a group of US academics suggest in a Web cast that the US should bring the beef issue to the WTO.

Obama keeps North Korea off terror sponsor list
President Barack Obama said Wednesday he had decided not to reinstate nuclear-armed North Korea to a list of countries that the United States considers state sponsors of terrorism.
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton last June had raised the possibility of returning North Korea to the list in reaction to recent nuclear and missile tests. Several Republican senators had been demanding such a move.
Obama made the determination in a letter sent to leaders of the U.S. Congress that accompanied a classified report on the conduct of North Korea between June 26, 2008, and Nov. 16, 2009.

Obama is letting the generals and contractors roll over him GlobalResearch.ca February 3, 2010 It is not possible to believe that it is coincidence that just as the Pentagon is being called upon to justify its immunity from the across-the-board budget freeze that President Barack Obama is declaring for the federal government, at least three provocative U.S. arms sales have been announced -- to Taiwan, Poland and four Persian Gulf states. The announcements were clearly scheduled to provoke, respectively, China, Russia and Iran. Each will now bark loudly, and perhaps take retaliatory action. Their responses will, in turn, serve as justification by the Pentagon for the 7.1 percent increase in proposed defense spending, even as painful cuts are being administered in other fields. The other beneficiaries of this move will be the defense contractors -- the happy band of manufacturers and trainers and their lobbyists -- into the ranks of which many senior military officers and Pentagon officials retire once their active duty days are done. The timing is extraordinary, if one had any inclination to consider it to be coincidental. The other "coincidental" development was the failure -- again -- of the missile-defense system in a $150 million trial that took place Sunday. That system, a dog that has been around for years, cleverly conceived and presented as an umbrella over the United States and some of its allies against Iranian or North Korean missiles, has two basic problems. First, it is expensive. Second, it doesn't work, although those two flaws do not necessarily deter Pentagon planners or defense contractors. |

E-coli vaccine a waste of farmers money but great for the drug companies Meat Trade Daily February 4, 2010 Bioniche Life Sciences Inc. (TSX: BNC), a research-based, technology-driven Canadian biopharmaceutical company, announced that Econiche(TM), the world's first vaccine developed to reduce the shedding by cattle of Escherichia coli (E. coli) O157, has been cited in the February, 2010 issue of Scientific American (Vol. 302, # 2). The article, "The Art of Bacterial Warfare", was written by Dr. Brett Finlay, Peter Wall Distinguished Professor in the Michael Smith Laboratories, the biochemistry and molecular biology department, and the microbiology and immunology department at the University of British Columbia. Dr. Finlay's research led to the development of Econiche. In his article, Dr. Finlay discusses the evolution of research into disease-causing bacteria and the discovery that bacteria have become increasingly adept at penetrating organs and tissues to survive and thrive in the human body. Dr. Finlay describes the E. coli O157 bacterium as having "perhaps the most remarkable method of locking itself onto a host cell", making its own receptor in the host's intestinal cells, anchoring it and allowing the bacterial toxins to enter the body and cause illness. Dr. Finlay further describes how E. coli O157 resides harmlessly in domestic cattle, but is released in their fecal matter where it can spread to human food and water supplies. READ MORE: |
