There is going to be a big announcement made at Mount Rushmore South Dakota this spring. Apparently there is someone that wants to put another face on the mountain, the face of Ronald Regan. The fund raising has begun as the sculpting of a face this big is not a small undertaking. It has not been mentioned who the sculpture will be done by although there have been rumors that a local man would be in charge. The official announcement is designed to illicit public opinion about the project. Opinions will be gathered for several months before the final decision is made to authorize the go ahead on the project. Most people thought there was no more room on the mountain for another sculpture but after years of computer models a way was found to actually take some of the removed rock and reattach it therefore making it possible to get one more head up there. There were several suggestions as to who’s head should actually be put there. Al Gore was dismissed immediately as were Bill Clinton and George Bush. Some thought we should wait for Hillary Clinton to become president and put her up there. Obama immediately objected to that suggestion.

Electronic mind control slavery has taken its part in those of us who have the ability to reach others at an emotional level. I sometimes read these mind control posts on different political boards. Back in the 50s hypnosis was a major focus of mind control research. To add to the possibilities of mind control, there are thousands of individuals seeing what they call master numbers 1111, 222, 444, 555, etc. The more I learn the more disturbing the potential of mass mind control becomes. My only comment: mind control works on the weak-minded, so victims should take that into consideration. Most experts say it’s only a matter of time before mind control weapons are a reality. There are a lot of mind control techniques that give the power of influencing others to follow your lead. Conversational hypnosis is something nearly similar to mind control. Read the full story for conversational hypnosis.Â

I just read a hilarous article on why Obama might become President. Apparently Obama has a chance because he is not bald. The blog article listed all the past US Presidents and pointed out that they all had hair.
Go read this article about Barrak Obama and other Presidents at http://hairgrowth-talk.com.

With the election season upon us, we should ask ourselves if we really know who these people are that are running for public office. Seriously, who are these guys? Have they committed crimes in their past? Are they to be trusted? There was a time when the media would do such research for us, but in this time of partisanship and bias, the media can’t be trusted to deliver this information. It may be time for the voting public to perform background checks themselves on these candidates, and share this information via the new media, that being blogs and websites.
Background checks enable consumers to delve deeper into an individual’s background, giving them the information they need to feel secure that their potential date, neighbor, caretaker or business partner is really who they say they are.
Backgroundcheckforcriminalrecords.com has researched a broad range of background check and criminal record providers, and it has chosen “Instant Background Report” as its exclusive partner for this all-important service to employers, landlords, and individuals.

If you are a political junkie and would like some information on Iowa tourism then you have come to the right place. Iowa, until the 3rd of January, is filled with talking mouths, politicians in every corner of the state making promises that after election will never be remembered by them and events that you can go to and meet and greet the candidates.
It’s the time of the election process when Iowa tourism isn’t comprised of people that want to see the zoo or the capital or go gambling at one of the casinos, they come for the entertainment of listening to the candidates.
Whether you are a political junkie or not you can’t help but get interested in what they have to say, after all, one of them, and who knows which one, will end up being the President of the United States after the election. Most people would like to be able to say they have met the President, shook his/her hand and probably remember it for years to come.
So, join the Iowa tourism flood and come see the state and all it’s candidates prior to January 3 when, alas, they will leave the state until the next election and then it starts all over again! Ahhh, for the financial benefits of the campaign trail! Bring them on!!

The SBA commissioned regulatory cost research to provide analysis of what the cost of compliance with regulatory requirements imposes upon small business.
The report finds that it costs small business $7,647 per employee to comply with federal regualtions. These are costs that otherwise could be used to increase employee pay, hire new employees, compete with greater competitiveness in a global economy.
Small businesses are the driving force of new job creation, accounting for over 70% of all new jobs created. The burden of regulatory compliance is placing this economic engine in jeopardy. The report asks the questions about whether this economic engine can possibly survive.

When John Edwards decided to continue his bid for the Democratic nomination for president, despite the fact that his wife Elizabeth’s cancer has returned, he has been facing some intense criticism.
Because of this decision, John Edward’s character, ethics and capacity for family love have been hotly debated over the last few days. He has been labeled both callous and courageous, and has been blasted for his seemingly insatiable ambition.
Those disapproving of his staying in the race ask angrily, “Now that Elizabeth is ill and her life almost certainly shortened, how can her husband not offer her relaxed, private time?â€? Others state just as emphatically, “This decision is the test of the man. Despite everything, he shows grit – he persists.â€?
Discuss the John Edwards presidential run.

It is time to tie problem companies to their political opponents. The Democrats do not address unethical practices of any kind if they can’t make political hay out of it. Do we ask our leaders to address the underlying problems of religious conflict, nationalism, hunger, and political oppression. Smith a friend of mime, a diehard liberal Democrat, has failed in the political game. And yet, a number of people continue to listen to Smith’s political musings—not because of his so called intellectual insight, I would hate to see a massage go the way of today’s politics which is to attempt to label every political view as either liberal or conservative. Whatever our personal and political differences, we have the finest law money can buy.

Being self sufficient is best. During our time, we have each experienced and observed the importance of energy to our civilization. In fact, energy is what our current civilization is centered upon. We need it to run our technology. It is what separates us from the Stone Age. But our current method of energy production has proved costly.

Field Notes From a Catastrophe – Elizabeth Kolbert – Audio Book that is a MUST listen!
Elizabeth Kolbert has been a staff writer for the New Yorker since 1999, Prior to that she was a reporter for the New York Times . She received the American Association for the Advancement of Science’s magazine writing award for the New Yorker series on which this book is based. So this in not fiction or fantasy – It’s the bloody sad truth……
The UN report on the climate and the two other parts to be published later this month will support her findings. Americans ( and Europeans! – and a few of the fast grwoing new industrialized nations) need to wake up!
Americans have been warned since the late 1970s that the buildup of carbon dioxide in our atmosphere threatens to melt the polar ice sheets and irreversibly change our climate. With little done since then to alter this dangerous path, the world has reached a critical threshold. By the end of the century, it will likely be hotter than at any point in the last two million years, and the sweeping consequences of this change will determine the future of life on earth for generations to come.
Taking listeners from the melting Alaskan permafrost to storm-torn New Orleans, acclaimed journalist Elizabeth Kolbert approaches this monumental problem from every angle. She interviews researchers and environmentalists, explains the science, draws frightening parallels to lost civilizations and presents the moving tales of people who are watching their worlds disappear. Growing out of an award-winning three-part series for the New Yorker , Field Notes from a Catastrophe brings the environment into the consciousness of the American people and asks what, if anything, can be done to save our planet.
What’s coming will make the Volcano Krakatoa – (The Day the World Exploded) look and sound like peanuts…….

Two key people were on hand to recover the debris from the Roswell saucer crash site: the base intelligence officer and a member of the Counter Intelligence Corps. They directed the recovery of the debris, which consumed a good part of the following day, and loaded the pieces into two vehicles. The debris was taken to Roswell AAF for disposition.
At about the same time, 100 miles away, Grady Barnett found what he believed to be a crashed saucer. Nearby were four small dead bodies. They had frail limbs and large heads with big, slanted eyes. According to Barnett, their bodies were encased in tight, one-piece, grey suits with no visible fasteners. Again, the military was quick to arrive. All witnesses were ushered away and ordered not to speak of the event.
On June 8, 1947, six days after the first event (all the debris may have been from the same vehicle), a press release approved by Lt. W. Haut, announced that saucer debris had been recovered by the 509th Bomb Group. The debris from both finds was loaded aboard a B-29 and flown to Carswell AFB in Fort Worth, Texas where it was announced that it was nothing more than the remains of a standard weather balloon…

All eyes are turning to the 2008 political season—especially those of Democratic voters, who are casting about for a galvanizing leader to help them win back the White House. Here is a great audio book ‘The Case for Hillary Clinton’, that will help you make your opinion:
Longtime political analyst Susan Estrich argues that no candidate even approaches the power and promise of Hillary Rodham Clinton , the senator from New York. Both a passionate spokesperson for progressive values and a strong advocate for our troops overseas, Hillary Clinton has used her time in the Senate to establish herself successfully as a genuine political powerhouse. And she offers Americans a once-in-a-lifetime chance to break the world’s most prominent glass ceiling and elect a female president of the United States.

There are many different finishes in ceiling tile. You can find geometric, orante or elemental ones. You can choose from plain , embossed or patterned finishes. Some are molded with special textures or squared edges, instead of the common beveled edges to make the seams barely visible when the tiles are in place. Acoustical ceiling tiles are made from the same fiber, but an additional manufacturing process helps these tiles absorb much of the sound in a room.

Here’s about Car Donations
What do you do with an old car in the automotive capital of the US. The state of Michigan is undoubtedly the automotive capital in the US. Michigan is the home of US car giants Ford, Chrysler and General Motors and several international auto manufacturers. With the continued production of new vehicles each it is not hard to imagine that the number of old cars pile up in the different part of the state.
An old car becomes less and less reliable and sooner or later will eventually become useless and a hassle to drive. Charities across Michigan are giving owners of old cars to dispose their struggling rides easily and at the same time help in a noble cause.

At a time when security is becoming a concern for many companies, it is important to recognize that you may be subject to a background check before receiving an offer of employment. When filling out the application during the interview process, you should be up front about your criminal record and reveal any legal problems you have had in the past. Many companies will allow you to explain any felonies on your record, but if they are discovered during a background check you will likely never get that chance.
