China is building a huge nuclear arsenal, Russia is claiming that it wants to reduce its arsenal, but secretly continuing to build, so what should the United States do? The United States has been developing high-accuracy hypersonic weapons that are capable of striking the territory of an enemy in mere minutes. To put it in a nutshell, up to 90 percent of ballistic missiles will be destroyed before they could be launched. The rest will be destroyed with the help of the structured missile defense system, which Washington has been working on for years already. So a word to our enemies. DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE THE UNITED STATES!

I looked up in the sky and saw this cloud and had to take a picture.

Leaders' Statement: The Pittsburgh Summit September 24 – 25, 2009 PREAMBLE 1. We meet in the midst of a critical transition from crisis to recovery to turn the page on an era of irresponsibility and to adopt a set of policies, regulations and reforms to meet the needs of the 21st century global economy. 2. When we last gathered in April, we confronted the greatest challenge to the world economy in our generation. 3. Global output was contracting at pace not seen since the 1930s. Trade was plummeting. Jobs were disappearing rapidly. Our people worried that the world was on the edge of a depression. 4. At that time, our countries agreed to do everything necessary to ensure recovery, to repair our financial systems and to maintain the global flow of capital. 5. It worked. 6. Our forceful response helped stop the dangerous, sharp decline in global activity and stabilize financial markets. Industrial output is now rising in nearly all our economies. International trade is starting to re...

September 25, 2009 Dear Friend, Yesterday I voted to protect seniors from unfair increases in their 2010 Medicare Part B premiums. The passage of H.R. 3631, the Medicare Premium Fairness Act, comes at a time when many of Pennsylvania's seniors are burdened by rising premiums and struggling to make ends meet. This legislation would prevent the burden of increased out-of-pocket expenses from falling on the 2.1 million Pennsylvanians enrolled in Medicare. As I've traveled throughout northeastern and central Pennsylvania, I've listened to families who struggle to make ends meet because of their expensive medical costs. Our seniors should not be forced to choose between Medicare premiums and their food. Providing for our nation's senior citizens is not a partisan political issue, it is a moral obligation. I will continue to work tirelessly for lower out-of-pocket costs to those already struggling to pay for medical care. The Medicare Premium Fairness Act passed the Hous...

When I took this shot of my boys, I did not think anything of it, but when I downloaded it and started to stare at it, a sad feeling overwhelmed, and I was wonder to myself if my boys, just sitting there will have a future? I felt tears coming down my cheeks knowing that the future, not only for my children, but for all children around the world, looks bleak. Hatred, wars, famine, greed, lust fro money and power will bring the downfall of humanity and our children will suffer.

September 18, 2009 Dear Friend, Earlier this week I supported legislation to strengthen both our economy and our national security. The Advanced Vehicle Technology Act (AVTA), which passed with broad bi-partisan support (312-114), will create the most comprehensive national vehicle research and development program to date. This program is aimed at keeping American industry at the forefront of alternative energy and fuel efficient auto technology far into the future. This legislation is a definitive acknowledgement that it is time for the United States to become a leader in renewable energy and fuel-efficient technology. I am a firm believer that an investment in renewable fuels not only lessens our dependence on foreign oil but also increases our national security. I am committed to sensible energy policies like this that will lower the price of fuel, strengthen our national security, grow our economy and create new jobs. The Advanced Vehicle Technology Act is a step in that directi...

These are just some of the items on my wall.

Dear Mr. Seretis: Thank you for taking the time to contact me about the performance of Congress and the need for a clean, accountable government. I appreciate hearing from all Pennsylvanians about the issues that matter most to them. As a United States Senator, I take very seriously the responsibilities that come with my job as a public official. Sadly, all too often I hear from constituents across Pennsylvania who fear that Congress has lost sight of its mission to represent the American people and solve the serious problems facing our Nation today. They express concern about fiscal responsibility, failed congressional oversight, earmark reform, partisanship and reports of corruption or conflicts of interest on the part of other members. While I can’t speak for my colleagues or how they manage their offices, I can assure you that I am vigilant in making sure that my Senate office, which truly belongs to the people of Pennsylvania, is run transparently and without undue influence from ...

UNIVERSAL DECLARATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS “Everyone has the right to a standard of living, adequate for, health and well-being of himself and of his family, including food, clothing, housing and medical care, and necessary social services. Everyone has the right to security in the event of unemployment, sickness, disability, widowhood, old age, or other lack of livelihood in circumstances beyond one’s control”. For humanity to go forth, it is crucial that we realize we are all brothers and sisters. All over the world, including here in the United States of America, the so-called richest nation on earth, men, women, and children, do not have the essentials to stay alive. This crime should shame us all. We are not savages, yet we act like animals. Humanity, we call ourselves humans and we are above all other species, yet we allow children to die right before our eyes because they have no food, no water, no shelter, no future. If humanity is to move forward, we must learn the concept of...

According to the CDC, like seasonal flu, symptoms of swine flu infections can include: fever, which is usually high, but unlike seasonal flu, is sometimes absent cough runny nose or stuffy nose sore throat body aches headache chills fatigue or tiredness, which can be extreme diarrhea and vomiting, sometimes, but more commonly seen than with seasonal flu Signs of a more serious swine flu infection might include pneumonia and respiratory failure. If your child has symptoms of swine flu, you should avoid other people and call your pediatrician who might do a rapid flu test to see if he has an influenza A infection. Further testing can then be done to see if it is a swine flu infection. (Samples can be sent to local and state health departments and the CDC for confirmation of swine flu, especially if a child is in the hospital.) Swine Flu High Risk Groups With regular seasonal flu, infants and the elderly are usually thought to be most at risk for serious infections, in addition to people ...
