Minuteman Border Group Report Results in Arrests

Comcast.net:"PHOENIX - Volunteers for an effort to patrol the Mexican border reported their first sighting of suspected illegal immigrants, resulting in 18 arrests, authorities said Sunday. Participants in the Minuteman Project spotted the migrants Saturday near Naco as the volunteers were surveying the border to familiarize themselves with area. When agents arrived, they apprehended 18 people, Border Patrol spokesman Andy Adame said. You observe them, report them and get out of the way. Minuteman volunteers planned to start regular patrols Monday, fanning out across 23 miles of the San Pedro Valley to watch the border and report any illegal activity to federal agents. It's an exercise some law enforcement authorities and others fear could lead to vigilante violence. McGarry said about 200 people would be in place for Monday's patrols, although human rights activists and some authorities have questioned whether the project will attract as many volunteers as organizers expect. Law enforcement officials said the volunteers were keeping the peace, despite concerns they might become confrontational with immigrants. Many of the volunteers were recruited over the Internet and some plan to be armed. Everything seems to be going well, said Carol Capas, a spokeswoman for the Cochise County Sheriff's Office.The Arizona-Mexico border is considered the most vulnerable stretch of the 2,000-mile southern border. Of the 1.1 million illegal immigrants caught by the Border Patrol last year, 51 percent crossed into the country at the Arizona border."

Intimate & Body Piercings

Doctors report:" THINK twice if you're considering wearing jewelry in an intimate place. People with such body piercings suffer associated health problems, according to people with nipple, genital, tongue, mouth piercings. Many reported genital piercing had urinary flow problems. This is because one type of piercing in particular, known as the Prince Albert, creates an extra hole in the urethra. Men with genital piercings reported that they sometimes led to torn condoms. Women reported getting infections really easy down below, and genital & nipples torn when pulled on or caught on something. Also people with different mouth piercings, reported getting infection from their partners in their pierced area, during oral-sex.

Earth near breaking point - WARNING

MSNBC:"Humans are damaging the planet at an unprecedented rate, raising risks of abrupt collapses that could worsen the spread of disease, deforestation and dead zones in the seas, according to a report, billed as the most comprehensive look at Earth's vital signs. The study, by 1,360 experts in 95 nations, said a rising human population had polluted or overexploited two thirds of the ecological systems on which life depends, ranging from clean air to fresh water. Humans have changed ecosystems more rapidly and extensively than in any comparable time in human history, largely to meet rapidly growing demands for food, fresh water, timber, fiber and fuel. This has resulted in a substantial and largely irreversible loss in the diversity of life on Earth. Next 50 years could be significantly worse. The very basis for life on Earth, is declining at an alarming rate. Future changes could bring sudden outbreaks of disease. The report said that in 100 years global warming, which many scientists tie to the burning of fossil fuels in cars, factories and power plants take over as the main source of damage. Governments should recognize that natural services have costs. Protection of natural services is unlikely to be a priority for those who see them as free and limitless. I myself worry about this alot, even tho I will never see if we as humans turn this around. As I feel it may take at least, another 100 years, if not more to turn it around even if we started today.”
