Obama invokes grandmother's death in health debate

In a debate in which he often sounds professor-like, Obama spoke with a rare bit of emotion that seemed to counter that of vocal health care opponents as he referenced the beloved grandmother who helped raise him and who he called "Toot."
She died of cancer at age 86 on Nov. 2, two days before he won election to become the nation's first African-American president.

Obama's grandmother banned by The Kenya Police from giving interviews that may jeopardise Obama's Presidential victory on November 4th.
In the recent past, a battery of local and international journalists have been visiting the home on a daily basis to seek interviews from the 85-year old granny.

But Mr Said Obama said the family would open up to the media on November 5, a day after the elections.

The United States Navy will be decimating millions of marine mammals and other aquatic life, each year, for the next five years, under their Warfare Testing Range Complex Expansions in the Atlantic, Pacific, and the Gulf of Mexico.

The Navy Warfare Testing Program will "utilize mid- and high frequency active sonar sources and explosive detonations.
These sonar and explosive sources will be utilized during Antisubmarine Warfare Tracking Exercises, Mine Avoidance Training, Extended Echo Ranging and Improved Extended Echo Ranging events, Missile Exercises, Gunnery Exercises, Bombing Exercises, Sinking Exercises, and Mine Warfare Training.

In all, the Navy anticipates that its sonar exercises will "take" marine mammals more than 2.3 million times per year, or 11.7 million times over the course of a 5-year permit.

Burning uranium from dirty bombs, dirty missiles and dirty bullets produce a radioactive gas composed of very tiny particles of uranium oxide that are produced when the shells leave the gun barrel and throughout its trajectory to the impact sites.

The tissues in our bodies filter out the depleted uranium particles from the blood and cause a web of diseases called "Gulf War Syndrome". Radiation is different. It respects no borders, no socio economic class, and no religion. There is no way to turn it off and no way to clean it up. It's the weapon that keeps giving and keeps killing. The half life of depleted uranium is 4.5 billion years. It is the "Trojan Horse" of nuclear war.

Within days, symptoms of GBS were reported among those who had been immunised and 25 people died from respiratory failure after severe paralysis. One in 80,000 people came down with the condition. In contrast, just one person died of swine flu.

The swine flu virus in the new vaccine is a slightly different strain from the 1976 virus, but the possibility of an increased incidence of GBS remains a concern.

Healthworkers in The Netherlands who reported 'incidents' immediately after a vaccination (like HPV), were fired from their job.
