I’m going to be busy for the next week or so. Posting might be a little light. I will try to keep up on my reading though. But I’d hate to leave you empty handed so I’ll leave some interesting links to sites and headlines.
This guy is going to be the executive director of the new Alberta-based Canada School of Energy and the Environment. they were given $15 million from the government. This same person was disbarred and jailed for defrauding law clients!
I know this is old news, but for those of you who don’t know. You really should check this out:
It looks pretty crappy. I don’t know why. On my camera and the movie I did with “movie maker” it is great quality. Oh well.
I say “Oh my G*D” twice! I don’t like doing that and I appologize. I always thought I’d run and warn people in a situation like that. I didn’t. I just stood there waiting to see where it was headed. I’m definately not someone to count on in this type of situation! I freeze.
Here it is:
Some still shots:
They are calling this a water spout. Whatever that is…it makes it sound so cushy and cute. Look, it’s a tiny water spout! To me, it was a freaking tornado! Thank you.
Please let this boat get through to help the victims of this mass land grab and inhumane treatment. Innocent people who are being collectively punished before our very eyes. The whole world watches and keeps silent. World leaders ignore this knowing that it is wrong. Knowing that people are dying. Crops destroyed, homes bulldozed. Basic needs are being blocked. We are all guilty for not speaking out. We should be ashamed.
If they were white Christians there would be an uproar. But they are Palestinians. And no one listens. Leaders don’t care, a Palestinian isn’t going to get them a vote.
There is a one Government and a group of people here willing to do something. So, watch over them. I think they will need you.
The Free Gaza Movement. From Cyprus to Gaza. The world will be watching and you can too. Spread the word. Keep updated. Keep watching. The more people that know, the more likely they will succeed.
It tells of a student working with the police on a sting operation. She was supposed to buy a gun. Somehow the police lost contact with her and they found her dead a few days later.
What it does say is that the gun that had killed her was traced to the one she was supposed to buy. Not the same make or model. The gun itself. How do they know the exact gun she was supposed to buy?
I have so many things to write about this week, things I learned these past few weeks talking with other people, but I have been so busy and want to put a bit of effort into them. Last week-end I had five houseguests! It was nice, but I don’t own a dishwasher and I felt like that is all I did! LOL! Poor me. No, actually I had a very nice time. Busy but enjoyable.
This week has been so hot and humid and I am just about toast when I get home. So, instead of writing a puff piece, I’m just going to share some headlines I have collected. Mostly to preserve them for myself and maybe someone out there might be interested in them.
This article tells of Native students in Canada are taking their plight to the UN. In 1979 there was a diesel spill on the land and that caused students and teachers to get sick they had been promised a new school since the year 2000, of course, it’s still just talk, no action. Sound familiar?
