The naming of an "environmental nutritionist" to a top USDA nutrition post is drawing fire from the National Center for Public Policy Research's Risk Analysis Division.
In an op-ed published in Friday's Des Moines Register, "Iowan’s USDA Appointment Raises Concern," Risk Analysis Division Director Jeff S
Bill Gates, one of the world’s most notable (or notorious) billionaires is at it again, announcing a remote controlled implantable birth control chip that could last up to 16 years.
The idea sprouted after a visit Bill made to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) two years prior, where he asked professor Robert Langer if there was any way to turn birth control on and off
There is significant interest and need in mental health services among people who identify as belonging to a racial or ethnic minority, data from Mental Health America's new online screening site show.
Responses of individuals from racial and ethnic minorities indicate that they are more likely than whites to report that they would monitor their health by taking screens regularly. And they are also more likely to want a way to privately contact a peer to discuss results.

[ VIEWPOINT| BY JESSIE DUARTE ] Few had not anticipated that the discovery that the kidnapped Israeli youth had been killed inside Palestinian territories would lead a terrible collective punishment of Palestinian civilians. The death of the two kidnapped young people is a sad and frightening reality of the injustice of a war forced upon the people of Israel and Palestine to serve but one objective; the continued illegal occupation of Palestinian land. While we acknowledge that many Israeli fa
As it stands now, the GOP will never win another presidential election.
Let me explain what I mean:
The American electorate has changed, and with it - so too has the formula to win elections.
The GOP's goal of turning out their base of older, white voters and winning over independents is no longer sufficient to win presidential elections.
For too long the GOP has been content with just appealing to white voters. We will never heal America and win consistently until conservatives are just as su

CELEBRATING THE HOLIDAYS OF OUR CAPTORS
Today is July 4th and people are celebrating the Independence of the United States, and that would also include descendants of Slaves. Ironically, just as Blacks were converted to worship the man-god, JC, the god of the Slavers, they are also encouraged to observe the celebrations such as the Independence Day of the very people who have wreaked havoc and misery in their lives. Some Blacks are doing very well financially in the US and in other Slave Nation

Waving American flags, the citizens of Murietta, California turned back buses carrying undocumented immigrants to a center for processing because the centers in Texas was full and in deplorable conditions. The undocumented immigrants were children who had desperately taken a hazardous journey all the way from Central America and had been detained in Texas under the most deplorable conditions. Transporting them away from there was virtually an act of mercy.

Have you ever felt guilty for saying ‘NO’ to your son when he’s asked for something that he did
I remember the story my husband tells where his ex-wife bought a car for their (teenage) son against his wishes. Son crashed the car by the third week of owning it. What do you say? Mothers say “I’m glad he’s unharmed. What a blessing.” Fathers say “That boy didn’t need a car. He’s too young for the responsibility and he won’t take care of it.” Fathers remember when they were teen boys and are speaking

Roosevelt outlined four freedoms that every person in the world ought to enjoy, including some from the very first amendment of the Constitution: freedom of speech, freedom of worship, freedom from want, and freedom from fear.
A new poll, released today by Heart+Mind Strategies, asked Americans if we as a country a
