Die Energiesparlampe

Gift, Strahlung und Elektro-Smog: Experten warnen vor den neuen Energiesparlampen. Die Industrie aber wirbt dafür, doch der Grund für die Werbung ist reine Profitgier.

Energiesparlampen: Ein zweischneidiges Schwert

Denn die Energiesparlampen enthalten giftiges Quecksilber – zudem erzeugen sie Elektrosmog. Das Quecksilber ist für die Lichterzeugung nötig: Unter Strom ...

A New York District Judge has ordered the Federal Reserve to disclose the destination of around $2 trillion dollars in bailout funds after the Fed failed to convince the Judge that the records should be exempt from the Freedom of Information Act.

Those of you still hoping for ‘change’ can forget it. Young Mr. Obama is working the same number that young Mr. Bush pulled on us. In Obama’s address to the Veterans of Foreign Wars in Phoenix, Ariz., on Aug. 17, he made his commitment to war in the Bananastans irrevocable. It would be wonderful if public servants seeking to associate themselves with the military would cater to the agenda of the Veterans for Peace. For a president of the United States to pander to the VFW is a disgrace. While the VFW is not a pack of latter-day Brownshirts like the American Legion, the two groups possess a common value: they never saw an armed conflict they didn’t like. If they had to serve in a pointless war, everyone else should too...

„Wie wir erfahren haben (und auch dokumentieren können), werden im Stadtgebiet Marburg die Müllkörbe in der Oberstadt und an den Bushaltestellen im Stadtgebiet von Erwerbslosen geleert, die sich in einer Maßnahme nach § 16 d SGB II bei der Praxis gGmbH befinden. Diese Maßnahmen werden landläufig 1-€-Jobs genannt und sind nur dann rechtskonform, wenn eindeutig zusätzliche Arbeiten erledigt werden. Die Müllbeseitigung ist aber eine Pflichtaufgabe der Universitätstadt Marburg…“ Offener Brief von ver.di Mittelhessen vom 20.8.09 an die Stadt Marburg bezüglich des Missbrauchs von 1-€-Job //mittelhessen.verdi.de/bezirk/offener-brief

Morgen soll die Sitzung des Haushaltsausschusses nicht nur Aufklärung über die Dienstwagen-Affäre von Ulla Schmidt bringen, sondern auch über die Feier von Deutsche-Bank-Chef Ackermann im Bundeskanzleramt. Dazu erklärt der Bundesgeschäftsführer Dietmar Bartsch, Mitglied des Haushaltsausschusses:

Warum "schenkte" die so integer erscheinende Kanzlerin Deutsche-Bank-Chef Ackermann eine Geburtstagsparty im Bundeskanzleramt auf Kosten des Steuerzahlers? Aus Dankbarkeit für Parteispenden oder als Dankeschön für die Beratertätigkeit im Zusammenhang mit der Bankenkrise? Aus der Party wird jetzt ein offizieller Termin. Dabei könnte das Kanzleramt wissen, dass das bei Ulla Schmidt auch schon schief gegangen ist… Das Verständnis der CDU-SPD-Bundesregierung vom Umgang mit Steuergeldern ist höchst skandalös. In Zeiten der Krise mit Kurzarbeit in Größenordnung, wo Millionen Menschen um ihre Arbeitsplätze bangen und im Staatshalshalt tiefe Löcher klaffen, greifen Kanzlerin und Bundesgesundheitsministerin schamlos in die Steuerkasse. Von Kanzlerin Merkel fordere ich, die entstandenen Partykosten zu begleichen. Gleichzeitig muss die Kanzlerin offen legen, welche weiteren "Geburtstagspartys" das Kanzleramt ausgerichtet hat.

A prominent banking analyst said Sunday that 150 to 200 more U.S. banks will fail in the current banking crisis, and the industry's payments to keep the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp afloat could eat up 25 percent of pretax income in 2010.

The Obama administration will continue the Bush administration's practice of sending terror suspects to third countries for detention and interrogation, but will monitor their treatment to insure they are not tortured, administration officials said on Monday.

CIA report: 'Inhumane' tactics used on detainees

The documents released by the CIA's inspector general said interrogators went too far - even beyond what was authorized under Justice Department legal memos that have since been withdrawn and discredited.

Who Needs Trials? Kill Terror Suspects!

Is it possible that the CIA would actually commit alleged war crimes - and the U.S. government would not hold the CIA and itself accountable in any way? Is water wet?

Between 40 and 62 percent of the American people, including 80 percent of registered Democrats, want universal, single-payer not-for-profit health care for all Americans. The ability of the corporations to discredit and silence voices that represent at least half of the population is another sad testament to the power of our corporate state.

The wise men sitting safely on the Potomac think that real "men" and real "patriots" can just get over the trauma that they have witnessed or inflicted upon others, through a contrived simplistic form of auto-hypnosis.

I am cutting my writing-staycation short to head to Martha's Vineyard because I think the new titular head of the empire needs to know that his policies are devastating people as much as the same policies did when Bush was president.

New US Deaths Make 2009 Afghan War's Deadliest

Peter Graff, Reuters: "Four U.S. servicemen were killed by a roadside bomb in Afghanistan on Tuesday, making 2009 the deadliest year for the growing contingent of foreign troops since the overthrow of the Taliban in 2001. The deaths highlighted the steadily worsening violence in the country, which has been in political limbo since a disputed presidential election last week. Afghan election authorities were preparing later on Tuesday to publish the first partial results from the presidential election, but the tiny sample may do little to resolve a growing war of words on the outcome."

RESIDENTS campaigning to stop a phone mast from being built near their homes are refusing to give up their peaceful protest.

A determined group have been keeping a round-the-clock vigil at the site of a proposed Vodafone mast in Stoke since last Monday.

They are refusing to budge until the development on the corner of Masterman Road and Keppel Place is scrapped.

The residents spent the weekend maintaining a watchful eye on the spot, some waking up in the early hours in case contractors arrived in the dark.
