March 27, 2024, 12:55:24 pm Mark says: Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked  When Hamas spokesman Abu Ubaida began a speech marking the 100th day of the war in Gaza, one confounding yet eye-opening proclamation escaped the headlines. Listing the motives for the Palestinian militant group's Oct. 7 massacre in Israel, he accused Jews of "bringing red cows" to the Holy Land.

September 24, 2017, 10:45:16 pm Psalm 51:17 says: The specific rule pertaining to the national anthem is found on pages A62-63 of the league rulebook. It states: “The National Anthem must be played prior to every NFL game, and all players must be on the sideline for the National Anthem. “During the National Anthem, players on the field and bench area should stand at attention, face the flag, hold helmets in their left hand, and refrain from talking. The home team should ensure that the American flag is in good condition. It should be pointed out to players and coaches that we continue to be judged by the public in this area of respect for the flag and our country. Failure to be on the field by the start of the National Anthem may result in discipline, such as fines, suspensions, and/or the forfeiture of draft choice(s) for violations of the above, including first offenses.”
September 20, 2017, 04:32:32 am Christian40 says: "The most popular Hepatitis B vaccine is nothing short of a witch’s brew including aluminum, formaldehyde, yeast, amino acids, and soy. Aluminum is a known neurotoxin that destroys cellular metabolism and function. Hundreds of studies link to the ravaging effects of aluminum. The other proteins and formaldehyde serve to activate the immune system and open up the blood-brain barrier. This is NOT a good thing."

China's unwelcome export to the US: air pollution
http://www.nbcnews.com/business/chinas-unwelcome-export-us-air-pollution-2D11967266
1/21/14

The U.S. may have sent jobs making cellphones and big-screen TVs to Chinese factories, but the pollution from those factories is coming back onshore.

China's famously foul urban air is blowing across the Pacific Ocean — much of it derived from factories that make popular consumer goods sold in the U.S. and Europe, according to a new paper by a group of researchers at the University of California at Irvine and other scientists published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

"When you buy a product at Walmart, it has to be manufactured somewhere," said co-author Steven Davis, an earth systems scientist at Irvine, in a press release. "The product doesn't contain the pollution, but creating it caused the pollution."

Air pollution is a major problem confronting China's leaders, who are coping with social, economic and environmental strains resulting from decades of rapid industrialization. A former Chinese health minister recently said that air pollution kills 500,000 people in China every year.

Most air pollution in the U.S. is produced locally by cars, trucks, refineries and other sources. But powerful global westerly winds can move airborne chemicals across the Pacific in days, according to the researchers.

The incoming dust, ozone and carbon is especially strong in the spring, causing dangerous spikes in contaminants that can accumulate in valleys and basins in California and other Western states, the study said. In Los Angeles, for example, the nitrogen oxide and carbon monoxide from Chinese factories pushes smog levels above U.S. federal ozone limits at least one extra day a year.

The researchers said their study is the first to quantify how much of the pollution is tied to the production in China of cellphones, televisions and other consumer items exported to the U.S. and the rest of the world.

The scientists note that while Chinese pollution exports have degraded air quality in Western states, the offshoring of U.S. manufacturing has improved air quality in the eastern half of the country.
