<p> </p>
<p><strong>Creators</strong>: Becky T. Bordo &amp; Courtenay Turner</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Genre</strong>: Dramedy</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Title</strong>: “Taking the Leap.”</p>
<p><strong>Premise</strong>: Follow the growth and propulsion of four female entrepreneurs.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Tagline</strong>: Entrepreneurship. The journey from dreaming to doing: a world where young entrepreneurs plant seeds and enormous trees grow.</p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Logline</strong>:</p>
<p>An earthquake and typical LA traffic bring together four young feisty female entrepreneurial visionaries while their drastically different personalities make them unlikely friends they bond while taking a leap in their personal, professional and spiritual lives.</p>
<p><strong>Synopsis</strong>: A show propelling every American viewer onto the crazy &amp; unpredictable journey on the road less travelled where the Entrepreneur triumphs; where a focused dream, a huge vision, and a hunger to attain all the riches that one can conceive is the direct path towards greatness; a look at the journey of four young female Visionaries doing whatever it takes to build themselves while building a business in the largest industries in today’s marketplace: Film, Fashion, Finance &amp; Food.</p>
<p>Every week we engage in the next step on the journey of building something for oneself, and not for some other person, and all the drama and chaos that ensues. We meet four females, starting with Cait, our Chi-town native, grounded Capricorn, out in LA to revolutionize the Food industry by creating a new chain that will rebuild the way food works, by taking things back to the caveman days. Cait creates a completely savage environment where it’s about real and raw, from the food, to the communication, to the service, to the experience. In contrast, we then meet Gigi, bred in Philly, and risking it all in LA to make a huge change in Film, rebuilding what she finds to be a technologically molested industry that needs to go back to the basics and cater to the audience, giving the viewer what he/she truly wants. With her bodacious and bubbly personality, she makes herself known and forges a frenzy of eclectic friendships in order to build her Center for audience-friendly filmic experience, where everyone is the commander in chief of their movie pick. If you and your girlfriend can’t decide between the chick flick or the action film, no problem, come to the Center and sit side-by-side while you both watch your respective flicks <em>together </em>on your personalized screen, and then enjoy post-film banter at the wine lounge located in the lobby. Gemini Gigi creates a high-energy and fast-paced tempo, in contrast to Cait, yet they both work well in establishing that necessary yin-yang effect for the four, especially when it comes to our Scorpio queen, Shantelle, Palm Beach’s African American fashionista, born with a silver spoon in her mouth. Shantelle is a control-freak and rather manipulative in getting her way when it comes to establishing a new trend in fashion and sizing. Shantelle’s view is that there needs to be an improvement in sizing for every woman, man, and therein, where a program organizes your closet and measures you at any point in time, determining what the best outfit is for your shape, size, bloating, and fatigue. This program will do all the necessary research involved in locating the best outfits and accessories for the user, from all designers and online sites. Shantelle’s strong sexual drive creates an interesting platform for drama between the ladies, especially when we meet the romantic and straightforward Saryn, the Saggitarius Latina, whose immigrant background makes her moral thinking and passion for education a focal point. Saryn’s passion to build a new industry within Finance begins at the core of educating the youth on how money works, and systematizing an educational program to implement nationwide and internationally where the financial dilemma can be cured.</p>
<p>The four ferocious females have their own interesting personas, and their intention to rebuild their respective industry, but at the core they exhibit similar success principles that set them apart from the employee-minded LA chick. Each week we explore the importance of taking ownership and making a commitment to success when going into business for oneself, and the difficulties of balancing a social life, personal life, and business life in one. From dating (where Gigi states ‘it’s easier to build a business than date in LA’), to maturing through financing a business, taking meetings with investors, building a team, enduring the set-backs, as well as appreciating your individual blessings when it comes to making a big move and a decision to win big. This show touches on the missing link to success- <strong>focused energy</strong>. And each lady’s innovative idea is linked to the desire to make relationships easier; the Film-Center alleviates quarrels over date-night, Fashion lessens the female’s low-self esteem and the male’s discomfort when asked ‘how do I look?’, Food enhances health and sexual productivity through proper diet, and Finance helps cure the #1 cause of divorce, money issues. Productive positivity is the key here, and these four leaders completely redefine the American Dream and the possibilities for young women and the new business class, the ‘entrepreneur class’, in rebuilding today’s modern and fast-changing economy…making it look good all the while.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Main Characters:</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Cait- </strong>a Capricorn, this grounded and earthly Vegan from the outskirts of Chicago has relocated to LA in order to pursue her long-term vision of pioneering a new Food Industry worldwide. Cait is a very serious and focused female, practical and patient, she knows that a solid foundation must be set for her business, and has major commitment to the task at hand. Her restaurant is a mix between the Paleo diet of the Caveman days, and the Atkins diet. She believes we must all go back to how things were done during the caveman days when things were simple and real, food was raw and true, and when communication was so straightforward it was nearly barbaric. Yet once the big earthquake hits town, she begins to pursue a new direction, one that aligns with her own true passions and not subject to external persuasions. She does not trust everyone in LA at all, and keeps to herself in the very trendy part of town where she has set up her restaurant.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Cait has very specific expectations for the men in her life. She isn’t overly sex-crazed, and is a long-term kind of girl, but still enjoys the fun in life. She is looking for something ‘real’ but is well aware that this may take some digging and excavating in the tumultuous dating scene of LA.</p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Gigi</strong>- a Gemini; fast-paced and a true chameleon, the kind of girl-next-door who charms the socks off of anyone she encounters. Moving from the suburbs of Philadelphia to Los Angeles to make a move in the Film industry, Gigi has her eyes set on building a new Entertainment industry where the audience is King, and getting there by whatever means necessary. Raised amidst wealth, all the while sharing a room with her younger sister in a tiny apartment, Gigi is bold and bodacious, especially when it comes to her vision of bringing Filmic freedom to the consumer by creating a chain of Centers where anyone, rich or poor, smart or dumb, fat or skinny, boring or entertained, can go and view any movie, any genre, at their own seat and viewing screen, while sitting next to their friend or spouse or family member who may be watching something completely separate. Gone are the days of fighting over the ‘remote’ or genre of which movie to go out and see tonight, everyone is in control of their experience, while still enjoying the company of their chosen film-going partner. Gigi loves life, and wine, and has attached a lounge for post-viewing conversation. Very big on halting the technological infusion of dumbed down content, and the reintroduction of the fundamentals of film, Gigi uses her personality and aggressive relationship building to put all the puzzle pieces together to create this viewing center where everyone can fall back in love with Film, and become more active in its creation and distribution.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>As far as her dating life is concerned, our airy Gigi is a commitment-phobe, but she enjoys relationships very much. Her duality in nature causes her major turmoil, and she constantly proclaims that building this Center is easier than dating in LA. She has an eclectic taste in men, and each week we see her with a new man, new race, new religion, new ethnicity, new status and class.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Shantelle</strong>- a Scorpio, this African American ferocious model from Palm Beach, Florida, is out in LA to make her dent in Fashion. Growing up wealthy has shaped this young lady’s vision, to the point where she feels that everyone owes her something. A control freak, tantrum-throwing and rather harsh entrepreneur, Shantelle proclaims that clothes today are designed for the fat middle-Americans, and that a new Fashion Industry needs to be created where the consumers’ sizing is back in their hands. Shantelle has created any person’s dream software that completely monitors and logs in the client’s wardrobe, and each time the individual wishes to get ready, he/she stands upon a platform that measures the person’s size/weight/bloating/pms, and is able to piece together the perfect outfit for the person’s measurements, curves, and exact shape. The program has a strong internet interface for all users to interact and give one another input on fashion and its evolution. The site immediately looks up and locates any missing wardrobe pieces or accessories from all designers and websites, also providing links with suggestions on the latest fashions, to best suit the customers’ needs. It’s all about control for the individual, and for Shantelle, as she makes sure that any situation she’s in, she has the upper-hand. Mildly manipulative and secretive, it is sometimes hard to tell if Shantelle is lying or telling the truth, or somewhere in between.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Men don’t trouble Shantelle, she just sleeps with all of them. Her sexuality has always been her downfall, and she is a demanding and power-hungry female in the bedroom, as much as in the workplace.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Saryn</strong>- a Saggitarius, this fired up young Texan Latina has ventured to LA to make a big change in how people understand the workings of money by revolutionizing the Financial industry to take things back to the basics. Saryn is an Immigrant from Mexico, and saw her parents work very hard her entire life, but not having much to show for it today. Saryn is passionate about educating the youth not about history and grammar, which are certainly valuable subjects, but about how money actually works- getting to the root of the financial illiteracy epidemic. Saryn wants to systematize a program whereby all schools implement a core curriculum for financial awareness, and she applies her idealism towards this incredible feat. Saryn is naturally gifted, whatever she touches tends to turn to gold, and she attracts money like a magnet. She is honest and straightforward, believing in morality, sometimes to an intensely romanticized degree, which creates some friction with the cynics and naysayers of Los Angeles, as well as within her own family and friendship circle.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>A romantic and very sentimental, Saryn loves to create lavish dates and enjoys the finer things in life. From fine dining to travelling to beautiful optimistic romance novel-esque scenes, Saryn finds it disheartening when a man doesn’t bring her roses and shower her with kisses and compliments. LA is certainly a wake up call!</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>PILOT</strong></p>
<p> </p>
<p>“Manifestation”</p>
<p> </p>
<p>We open in a humongous traffic accident, a huge truck has blockaded the whole southband lane of the 405. Here we are introduced to Cait, on the phone with her head-chef. They talk about her needing to make an important decision to grow her restaurant, she’s been stalling on expanding to the open space next door. The price, the location, the contracts are all right, but she puts off signing on the dotted line. While the conversation goes on, we hear Gigi yelling remakrs on a megaphone in the background. This woman is on top of her car, and instigates an altercation with a lady in an opposite car, Shantelle, who now gets out of her car and begins bickering with Gigi. Back to Cait, hangs up her phone, and we meet Saryn as she walks in to stand next to Cait, holding some hot food. Saryn mentions she needs to keep her food spiritually protected. Cait and Saryn notice Gigi and Shantelle’s altercation is now getting physical, the claws come out, and so the peace-maker Saryn wanders over to lend a hand. Ends up getting food tossed all over, mainly all over Cait.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Cut to:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Cait enters her kitchen covered in food. We see the head-chef, and the two continue their previous conversation. Cait explains the accident, the crazy women, and suddenly we hear the voices of Gigi and Shantelle in her very own restaurant. In disbelief, Cait heads into the restaurant from the kitchen, and low and behold she finds the ladies bickering again. She tries to keep the peace, and believe it or not Saryn walks in, and sees the three. She remarks on the serendipity of the situation, and how auspicious it is. Cait sits Gigi down while the head chef seats Shantelle on the opposite side of the restaurant. We sit with Gigi and her sugar-daddy date, and hear her master plan, as she dominates the entire conversation. We don’t hear Sugar Daddy say a word, and by the end of her lunch and rant about her humongous vision, she has already closed him giving her a check for the down payment on a space.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Interwoven with Gigi’s conversation is Shantelle’s lunch meeting with a prospective web designer. She tries to communicate her goal, but she doesn’t have much idea about web stuff. As she talks about what she wants in a web-designer, we feel like she’s really casting for a man, and mid-way through the conversation we cut to Saryn and Cait’s conversation, as Saryn tries to get some more food since all of her hot food is now all over the 405 and Cait. Saryn shares her story here about her Financial revolution vision, and preaches how everything happens for a reason. These three conversations are blended together, and suddenly an earthquake hits to bring them all together. The wall separating the restaurant with the space next door crumbles d own…and the head chef turns to Cait and says, “well, I guess we’re expanding.”</p>
<p> </p>
<p>&#8212;Earthquake&#8212;-                                                                         end of 1<sup>st</sup> Act</p>
<p> </p>
<p>We are brought back to Gigi, whom we follow as she arrives at the location she’s scouted. And she finds it in disarray after the earthquake, and the landlord notifies her that she won’t be able to occupy the space anytime soon. Gigi has a mini-panick attack and calls her Guru, whose manly voice we hear but whose face we never quite see. The Guru suggests and makes Gigi come to the conclusion that she never truly wanted the place, and it was for the best that she starts looking for another location. So begins Gigi’s quest, and mini-montage, of the process of location scouting for her Film-Center.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Meanwhile, Shantelle is in the tub talking to her mother about her unsuccessful lunch with yet another lousy prospect. Her mom instills the mentality of just settling for finding a rich man and not working so hard. We pan out to see Shantelle’s decked out lifestyle, as her obnoxious sided LCD screen hangs on the wall, the screen split to three, as we see her multi-tasking; doing her internet shopping buying more gadgets, her true stress relief, skyping her boy-toy, and watching some Access Hollywood.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Then we see Saryn, stepping out on stage to give her enthusiastic speech about her passion in the financial realm. Her words are so out there that by the time she finishes there is only one gentleman clapping enthusiastically, while the rest seem rather puzzled. After the speech, we find Saryn at the reception filling her plate. The gentleman clapping approaches Saryn, and introduces himself, beginning to reiterate her utopian message in a much more concrete manner. As he does so, the crowd around them begins listening and actually engaging. So after his speech to Saryn, everyone begins clapping, finally grasping the message. Saryn is in awe.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Next we find Cait again, sitting in the middle of the empty side of the building, disheveled, as construction workers work around her. The head chef is there, alongside the landlord, basically trying to get her to sign the papers to expand next door. She is about to sign when her phone rings, it’s her mentor who also has introduced her to her favorite Vegan restaurant next door. He reminds her that they are supposed to meet up and check out this Raw-foods spot, and she uses this as an excuse to bail.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>We go back to Gigi’s montage, seeing a bunch of imperfect and odd spaces. We experience the eclectic disarray of the different LA hubs, and catch Gigi’s interesting reactions to each. Next to Shantelle, stepping into her Fortune 500-esque office space, decked out with reception area, full staff, yet one room remains bare, the web-designer’s office. We follow her through her interactions with her staff, and we see her receiving an incorrect gadget by her assistant, and as she nearly freaks out, she takes a moment and calls her anger-management counselor who calms her down. He then also, through conversation, suggests for her to meet with a prospect who may be able to help her in some way at a mentioned address, and so Shantelle heads over to the location.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Cut to Saryn, who is giving an in-depth mock-presentation to a group of young kids at the park. We pan across their befuddled faces, one is picking his nose, the other is twirling her hair, while one little Asian kid actually starts grasping her message. She finishes her speech, the kids run off, and the guy from her school presentation approaches her at the park, bringing her a coffee and the two begin to walk. Saryn speaks of her dreams and goals, establishing the exposition and heart of the series- manifestation and following your passion. Here we see that all four of our lady characters’ struggles are linked together by these basic cohesive principles.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Now we are brought back to Cait’s meeting with her mentor, where we hear her talking about her fears and doubts of why she hesitates to sign the contract. We see her sitting in a cavernous booth with this Renaissance man, who is so simple in appearance, the true physical representation of manifestation. He is actually a waiter/bartender at the Raw-food spot, who we see serving Cait healthy elixirs from across the bar, and listening to her vent. After a few sips of the ‘Manifestation Serum’, the mentor stars speaking on Manifestation and the right mindset, leading Cait into switching her pessimistic view and opening her eyes to unforeseen opportunities. She finishes her drink, he clears her drink, and the coaster beneath her drink is an invite to the <em>Manifestation Workshop </em>that same evening. And Cait decides this is a sign, deciding to go.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>&#8212;-End of Act 2&#8212;-</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Cait is walking towards the workshop building, gets to the doorway and stop. She doubts her decision to go, turns around, and sees Gigi approaching. Gigi and Cait start conversing and Gigi mentions that she is scouting the location, that it was one of the spots on her list. Cait explains why she herself is there, what she was going to do, and now why she is now probably not going to. Shantelle enters, makes a snide comment about Gigi, and Cait mediates an argument between the two. The three hear Saryn’s voice from inside the building, they all share a ‘what the hell?’ look, and walk inside to find Saryn talking in front of a group of men and women, all ages all sizes, sitting on mats. Saryn expresses her goals and dreams, states her newfound understanding that she cannot do anything big alone, that her message needs synergy in order to be conveyed, and at this point looks up to see her three new gal pals, and excitedly and lovingly invites them to join the group.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Cait, Shantelle, and Gigi hesitate but grab a mat and find their place. The mediator rises and introduces the current exercise. She asks the three what they want, as Transformation is figuring out where you want to go, and what’s holding you back, that thin veil between your current situation and a positive breakthrough- in a business, personal, and spiritual sense. The mediator mentions that there are some childhood tendencies and stories that each carries, declaring that one must understand where they are and where they came from in order to figure out where they want to go.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Shantelle and Gigi both deliver articulate descriptions of their goals and dreams. When it comes to Cait’s turn to share, we see her struggle to make much sense of her clear purpose. The build up over the episode is apparent; she speaks on the present, but not much of her future vision. The group starts to remark that she is not really expressing desires, and the mediator nudges her forth to share her wants. Cait tries to come up with some stuff, and Saryn and Gigi and Shantelle now become more involved as they see parts of her struggles within themselves. They all push her to articulate, and finally Cait rants forth her true feelings, “I just want everyone to leave me alone.” She gets personal in actually expressing her true wants, without the outside forces pressing in on her. Emphatically closing with “I just want to be happy and quit having to prove myself!”</p>
<p> </p>
<p>After a brief and awkward silence, Gigi looks over to Cait asking “feel better?” Cait sits down, answers “actually I do” with a smile we haven’t yet seen. And the mood is lighter.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>&#8212;&#8211; CUT TO &#8212;&#8212;</p>
<p> </p>
<p>We come back to see the group mingling after the Manifestation workshop is over. Everyone is in their little groups, and we see Cait off on her own. After her outburst she is slightly embarrassed. Next we see Shantelle and Gigi having a pleasant conversation, bonding over their shared articulation. Saryn approaches Cait from behind, and pulls Cait into a conversation, instilling some confidence in her. Shantelle and Gigi move towards Cait as well, and the four now start chatting and decide to share their BBM pins.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The group begins to leave, and Cait checks her phone and sees that Saryn has updated her BBM status expressing her joy and love for the new ‘team’ of friends. Gigi starts a group for the ladies, and begins the chat, trying to organize them all to celebrate at her film-center as soon as she opens the doors, and Shantelle responds to Gigi in an attempt to gain control, mentioning that Gigi doesn’t even have a space yet, and they should meet at her lavish office instead . The two begin to bicker through BBM, we hear nonstop beeps, and see a close-up on Cait’s face as her smile fades and she realizes what she has gotten herself into.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>CUT TO BLACK</p>
<p> </p>
<p>END.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><em> </em></p>
<p><em>Through this spiritual adventure towards learning and accepting growth, the four ladies provide different entry-points for the viewers. Our primary protagonist, Cait, conveys a grounded outlook which offers a solid entry-point that will engage the general audience as they embark the journey of these four characters. The other three ladies bring out other elements of human nature, which will also ring true with the eclectic scope of personalities. Therefore this show offers a bit of something for everyone.</em></p>

<td style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 13px;"> American Solutions General Chairman Newt Gingrich recently wrote an article in the <span style="font-style: italic;">Washington Post</span> that has annoyed a few people, including it seems, President Obama.In this <a title="article" href="http://cl.exct.net/?qs=c38164bb4a6d2bc8ab6b406079c9e5212e1ac84deda78c5a9184ae54d6ffa6c8">article</a>, Gingrich repeats an earlier assertion that President Obama is &#8220;the most radical president in American history&#8221; and describes with several examples how the governing team of Obama-Pelosi-Reid operates as a &#8220;secular socialist machine.&#8221;It appears that describing Obama administration policies as &#8220;socialist&#8221; is more than President Obama and his defenders can stand. They seek to marginalize any serious discussion of whether President Obama is indeed attempting to impose socialist programs on American society.Consider President Obama&#8217;s <a title="remarks" href="http://cl.exct.net/?qs=c38164bb4a6d2bc83df28ff93d74ffa11a288f1a3ff0036af4fb203a6afdb0fd">remarks</a> this past weekend at the University of Michigan:</p>
<div style="font-style: italic; margin-left: 40px;">The&#8230; way to keep our democracy healthy is to maintain a basic level of civility in our public debate&#8230;. Throwing around phrases like &#8220;socialist&#8221; and &#8220;Soviet-style takeover;&#8221; &#8220;fascist&#8221; and &#8220;right-wing nut&#8221; may grab headlines, but it also has the effect of comparing our government, or our political opponents, to authoritarian, and even murderous regimes.</div>
<p>&#8230; The problem is that this kind of vilification and over-the-top rhetoric closes the door to the possibility of compromise. It undermines democratic deliberation. It prevents learning &#8211; since after all, why should we listen to a &#8220;fascist&#8221; or &#8220;socialist&#8221; or &#8220;right-wing nut?&#8221; It makes it nearly impossible for people who have legitimate but bridgeable differences to sit down at the same table and hash things out. It robs us of a rational and serious debate that we need to have about the very real and very big challenges facing this nation.</p>
<p>The President would have us believe that using the term &#8220;socialist&#8221; undermines democratic deliberation and robs us of rational and serious debate about the challenges facing our country. </p>
<p>We disagree completely and believe that assessing Obama administration policies as socialist or not serves a very useful purpose.  We believe that people can learn a lot about socialism when examining many of the Obama administration policies.</p>
<p>Here a few examples:</p>
<ul>
<li>The recently passed healthcare bill is a government takeover by regulation of approximately one-sixth of the economy. It will raise taxes by almost $1 trillion dollars over the next ten years and insurance premiums and associated healthcare costs will likely continue to go up each year. </li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>President Obama supports an economy wide cap and trade system, which he believes will strengthen job creation. Opponents believe that a cap and trade system will kill jobs and lead to government control of the entire U.S. economy, or, in other words, a socialist means of government control and of taxing and redistributing wealth to politically favored constituencies.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>A free market economy is about rewarding companies that produce high quality products at a competitive cost and allowing them to fail when they are unable to deliver value at a price consumers are willing to pay.  A socialist approach is for the government to bail out companies with taxpayer dollars and then manage them, even though we already have an established bankruptcy process in this country for the orderly reorganization of failing companies.  President Obama chose the socialist approach when he bailed out General Motors and Chrysler. </li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>During the 2008 presidential campaign Barack Obama said &#8220;When you spread the wealth around, it&#8217;s good for everybody&#8221;.  This world view is socialist in perspective, especially when you consider the spreader of the wealth is the federal government.  Well it&#8217;s time to get ready for some more wealth being spread around because the Obama Administration is talking about introducing an entirely new form of taxation to the U.S.  It&#8217;s called the Value -Added Tax (VAT), and it functions as a national sales tax on materials and goods at the production level, which will be passed along to the consumer in the form of higher prices on everything that is purchased.</li>
</ul>
<p>These are a few of many examples in which President Obama&#8217;s administration has or is trying to increase the size and power of the federal government in a manner that justifies the term socialist.</p>
<p>We believe the American people can decide for themselves whether certain terms reflect their understanding of reality.  At American Solutions, we will continue to use the terms we believe accurately reflect the direction of this Administration.</p>
<p>Over the coming months in this election year we expect a vibrant national debate about the direction of this administration and what words most accurately define it. </p>
<p>Along the way, we will be providing you with updates on the actions of the &#8220;Secular-Socialist Machine&#8221; and asking for your feedback and help in stopping it.</p>
<p>Sincerely,<br />

Tomatoes and Cheap Labor</p>
<p>CHEAP TOMATOES?<br />
This should make <span style="text-decoration: underline;">everyone think</span>, be you Democrat, Republican or Independent </p>
<p>From a California school teacher &#8211; - - </p>
<p>&#8220;As you listen to the news about the student protests over illegal immigration, there are some things that you should be <strong>aware</strong> of:</p>
<p>I am in charge of the English-as-a-second-language department at a large southern California high school which is designated a Title 1 school, meaning that its students average lower socioeconomic and income levels</p>
<p>Most of the schools you are hearing about, South Gate High, Bell Gardens , Huntington Park , etc., where these students are protesting, are also Title 1 schools. </p>
<p>Title 1 schools are on the <span style="text-decoration: underline;">free breakfast and free lunch program.</span> When I say free breakfast, I&#8217;m not talking a glass of milk and roll &#8212; but a full breakfast and cereal bar with fruits and juices that would make a Marriott proud. The <strong>waste</strong> of this food is <strong>monumental</strong>, with trays and trays of it being <strong>dumped in the trash uneaten</strong>.<br />
<strong><br />
I estimate that well over 50% of these students are obese or at least moderately overweight. About 75% or more <span style="text-decoration: underline;">DO</span> have </strong><strong>cell phones</strong><strong>.</strong><strong> The school also provides <span style="text-decoration: underline;">day care centers</span> for the</strong><strong> unwed teenage pregnant girls</strong><strong> (some as young as 13) so they can attend class without the inconvenience of having to arrange for babysitters or having family watch their kids.<br />
</strong></strong></p>
<p>I was ordered to spend <span style="text-decoration: underline;">$700,000</span> on my department or <span style="text-decoration: underline;">risk losing<br />
funding</span> for the upcoming year even though there was <span style="text-decoration: underline;">little need for anything; my budget was already substantial. I ended up buying new computers for the computer learning center, half of which, one month later, have been carved with graffiti by the appreciative students who obviously feel humbled and grateful to have a free education in America .. </p>
<p>I have had to intervene several times for young and substitute teachers whose classes consist of many illegal immigrant students, here in the country less then 3 months, who raised so much hell with the female teachers, calling them &#8220;Putas&#8221;</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">(</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">whores</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">)</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"> and throwing things</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">,</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"> that the teachers were in tears. </p>
<p>Free medical, free education, free food, free day care etc., etc, etc.  Is it any wonder they feel entitled to not only be in this country but to demand rights, privileges and entitlements?</p>
<p>To those who want to point out how much these illegal immigrants contribute to our society because they LIKE their gardener and housekeeper and they like to pay less for tomatoes: spend some time in the real world of illegal immigration and see the TRUE costs. </p>
<p>Higher insurance, medical facilities closing, higher medical costs, more crime, lower standards of education in our schools, overcrowding, new diseases</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">.</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"> For me, I&#8217;ll pay more for tomatoes. <br />
</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><br />
</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Americans, </span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">We need to wake up.<br />
</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><br />
It does, however, have everything to do with culture: It involves an American third-world culture that does not value education, that accepts children getting pregnant and dropping out of school by 15 and that refuses to assimilate, and an </span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">American culture</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"> </span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">that has become</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"> so </span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">weak</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"> </span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">and worried about</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">&#8220;</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">political correctness</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">&#8220;</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">  that we don&#8217;t have the will to do anything about it. </p>
<p>If this makes your </span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">blood boil</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">, as it did mine, forward this to everyone you know. </p>
<p>CHEAP LABOR? Isn&#8217;t that what the whole immigration issue is about?</p>
<p>Business doesn&#8217;t want to pay a decent wage. </p>
<p>Consumers don&#8217;t want expensive produce. </p>
<p>Government will tell you Americans don&#8217;t want the jobs.</p>
<p>But the bottom line is cheap labor. The phrase &#8220;cheap labor&#8221; is</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"> </span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">a </span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">myth</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">, a </span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">farce, and a lie. There is no such thing as &#8220;cheap</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"> </span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">labor.&#8221; <br />
</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><br />
Take, for example, an illegal alien with a wife and five children. He takes a job for $5.00 or 6.00/hour. At that wage, with six dependents, </span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">he pays no income tax, yet at the end of the year, if he</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"> files an Income Tax Return, he gets an &#8220;</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">earned income credit&#8221; of up to $3,200 free. <br />
</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><br />
He qualifies for </span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Section 8 housing</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"> and </span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">subsidized rent</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">.</p>
<p>He qualifies for</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"> food stamps.<br />
</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><br />
He qualifies for </span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">free (no deductible, no co-pay) health care.<br />
</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><br />
His </span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">children get free breakfasts and</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"> </span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">lunches</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"> </span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">at school.</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"> <br />
</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><br />
He </span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">requires bilingual teachers and books.<br />
</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><br />
He</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"> qualifies for relief from high energy bills.<br />
</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><br />
If </span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">they are, or become, aged, blind or</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"> </span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">disabled</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">, they </span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">qualify for SSI.  If </span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">qualified for SSI they can qualify for </span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Medica</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">id.   </span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">All of this is at</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"> (our) taxpayer&#8217;s expense</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">. </p>
<p>He doesn&#8217;t worry about car insurance, life insurance, or homeowners insurance.</p>
<p>Taxpayers provide </span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Spanish </span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">language signs, bulletins and printed material.</p>
<p>He and his family receive the equivalent of $20.00 to $30.00/hour in </span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">benefits.</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"> </p>
<p>Working Americans<br />
are lucky to have $5.00 or $6..00/hour left after paying their bills and his. </p>
<p>Cheap labor? YEAH RIGHT!</p>
<p>THESE ARE THE QUESTIONS WE SHOULD BE ADDRESSING TO THE CONGRESSIONAL MEMBERS OF EITHER PARTY. &#8216;AND WHEN THEY LIE TO US AND DON&#8217;T DO AS THEY SAY, WE SHOULD REPLACE THEM </span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">.</span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"></p>
<p></span></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Please pass this on to as many as possible.  Immigration legislation is to be considered in 2010.  This is important to working Americans, our economy and our American culture and heritage.</span></strong>.</p>

<p> </p></div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">By Joseph J Kusnell</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">There is a lesson to be learned from Greece. Like us, they hired too many state workers. Like us they overpaid them. Like us they gave them unsustainable benefits including in some cases 55 year retirement with FULL life-time benefits. </span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">When Greece couldn&#8217;t sustain this giveaway, their financial house of cards collapsed but the workers could care less. They have been overpaid and using taxpayers money for years. But now, it has dried up. There is no money. Do they care? No. They are selfish and they are stupid.</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">They seem to think by rioting, more money will be generated.  Then they can continue on their own gravy train even if the other taxpayers are forced into tax-bankruptcy. </span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">What these morons don&#8217;t seem to understand is that there is no money. The money they have been stealing for years has run out. An adjustment is needed. </span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">That&#8217;s the trouble with getting people used to more than they are worth. When you eventually have to cut them back, they can&#8217;t handle it. </span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">I wouldn&#8217;t want to be running any government that had to correct this type situation. It is not likely to be peaceful.</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">Our unions at GM are like this. Do anything to anyone but not to us. After all, &#8220;we earn our money!&#8221;. THEY bankrupted GM but don&#8217;t blame them! Let the taxpayer bail them out just as long as they continue to get what they have been getting or close to it.</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">lol</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">I have a friend who is a steel rod-setter. He and his wife have a $500,000.00 home in the suburbs. He will tell you &#8220;We earned every bit of that money&#8221;. </span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">In what society is a rod setter worth that kind of money? If he is worth that, what must a doctor be worth? Or an engineer? BUT, doctors and engineers aren&#8217;t unionized. </span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">And what does this do to a nation&#8217;s economy? Well, it can destroy it if labor&#8217;s demands are excessive. Or it can drive employers to seek cheaper labor if they are.</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">In America they were so &#8211;  </span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">How about if all those Greek government workers were replaced with cheaper labor? The country would recover quickly. The government workers wouldn&#8217;t.  </span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">Unions are composed of a lot of politically and economically uninformed people; hence, it&#8217;s hard to tell that them the truth about anything. They won&#8217;t hear it. Instead they riot. </span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">Better them than us.</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">But our day might be coming if we don&#8217;t straighten out our act soon. </span></div>
<div> </div>

<p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">MINNEAPOLIS</span></span> &#8211; Facebook is now sharing your personal profile information with third parties. For now, it&#8217;s just a few web sites, like the music site Pandora, and the consumer review site, Yelp.</p>
<p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Facebook is automatically sharing that information, without your consent. If you don&#8217;t want to share, you have to opt out.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">University</span></span> of Minnesota law professor and privacy expert Bill McGevern says it&#8217;s an important line in the sand. And for Facebook, with 600 million users, the stakes are high.</p>
<p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">“Facebook is trying over and over to get this shared so Facebook becomes the center of the web,” said McGevern.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Facebook wants to make money by selling user information.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Last week, Facebook announced new features designed to unlock more of the data accumulated about its users during its six-year history. The senators said the recent changes by Facebook fundamentally alter the relationship between users and the social networking site. Before the change, users had control over what information they wished to share publicly and what information they wanted to keep private.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Among other things, Facebook is plugging into other websites so people can communicate their interests with friends, colleagues and acquaintances online. Facebook also changed its own website to create more pages where users&#8217; biographical information could be exposed to a wider audience.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">In a statement, Facebook said, &#8220;these new products and features are designed to enhance personalization and promote social activity. All of Facebook’s partner sites interact with a user’s consent.&#8221;</span></span></div>

<p dir="ltr"><span lang="en-us">By </span><a title="http://www.washingtontimes.com/staff/jerry-seper/" href="http://www.washingtontimes.com/staff/jerry-seper/"><span lang="en-us"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Jerry Seper</span></span></span></a></p>
<p dir="ltr"><span lang="en-us">Mexican President Felipe Calderon denounced as &#8220;racial discrimination&#8221; an Arizona law giving state and local police the authority to arrest suspected illegal immigrants and vowed to use all means at his disposal to defend Mexican nationals against a law he called a &#8220;violation of human rights.&#8221; </span></p>
<p dir="ltr"><span lang="en-us">But the legislation, signed April 23 by Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer, is similar to Reglamento de la Ley General de Poblacion — the General Law on Population enacted in Mexico in April 2000, which mandates that federal, local and municipal police cooperate with federal immigration authorities in that country in the arrests of illegal immigrants. </span></p>
<p dir="ltr"><span lang="en-us">Under the Mexican law, illegal immigration is a felony, punishable by up to two years in prison. Immigrants who are deported and attempt to re-enter can be imprisoned for 10 years. Visa violators can be sentenced to six-year terms. Mexicans who help illegal immigrants are considered criminals. </span></p>
<p dir="ltr"><span lang="en-us">The law also says Mexico can deport foreigners who are deemed detrimental to &#8220;economic or national interests,&#8221; violate Mexican law, are not &#8220;physically or mentally healthy&#8221; or lack the &#8220;necessary funds for their sustenance&#8221; and for their dependents. </span></p>
<p dir="ltr"><span lang="en-us"><strong>&#8220;This sounds like the kind of law that a rational nation would have to protect itself against illegal immigrants — that would stop and punish the very people who are violating the law,&#8221; said Rep. Steve King of Iowa, ranking Republican on the House Judiciary subcommittee on immigration, citizenship, refugees, border security and international law. </strong></span></p>
<p dir="ltr"><span lang="en-us"><strong>&#8220;Why would Mr. Calderon have any objections to an Arizona law that is less draconian than his own, one he has pledged to enforce?&#8221; Mr. King said. </strong></span></p>
<p dir="ltr"><span lang="en-us">Sen. Jon Kyl of Arizona, the ranking Republican on the Senate Judiciary subcommittee on terrorism and homeland security, described Mr. Calderon&#8217;s comments as &#8220;hypocritical to say the least.&#8221; </span></p>
<p dir="ltr"><span lang="en-us">&#8220;I would have expected more from Mr. Calderon,&#8221; said Mr. Kyl, who serves as the Senate minority whip. &#8220;We are spending millions of dollars to help Mexico fight the drug cartels that pose a threat to his government, and he doesn&#8217;t seem to recognize our concerns. He ought to be apologizing to us instead of condemning us.&#8221; </span></p>
<p dir="ltr"><span lang="en-us">Mr. Kyl, along with fellow Arizona Republican Sen. John McCain, has introduced a 10-point comprehensive border security plan to combat illegal immigration, drug and human smuggling, and violent crime along the southwestern border. It includes the deployment of National Guard troops, an increase in U.S. Border Patrol agents and 700 miles of fencing, along with other equipment and funding upgrades. </span></p>
<p dir="ltr"><span lang="en-us">He said skyrocketing violence on the border, including the recent killing of an Arizona rancher by an illegal immigrant he had gone to assist, has not gone unnoticed by the public, adding that until the federal government provides the necessary funding and manpower to adequately secure the southwestern border, Arizona will not long remain the only state to pass legislation to do it on its own. </span></p>

<p><strong>A Review of John Kanzius&#8217; Thermal Destruction of Cancer Cells </strong></p>

<div id="attachment_6193" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 310px"><img class="size-full wp-image-6193" title="byb-kanzius-inventor-of-the-cancer-killing-radio-wave-machine-300x225" src="http://boomeryearbook.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/byb-kanzius-inventor-of-the-cancer-killing-radio-wave-machine-300x225.jpg" alt="BoomerYearbook.com " width="300" height="225" /><p class="wp-caption-text">BoomerYearbook.com </p></div>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>What is Thermal Destruction of Cancer Cells? John Kanzius says he uses radio waves in a noninvasive way to heat nanoparticles which can kill cancer. John Kanzius is not a doctor. In fact he holds no degrees at all, not even a college bachelor degree. Who is he? He is a man, like so many, diagnosed with cancer.</p>
<p>Five years ago, John was informed that he has b-cell leukemia. John understood and witnessed first hand the devastation the current cancer treatment wrecked on one&#8217;s body and spirit; seeing the hopeful smiling faces starting chemo therapy and radiation turn sickly and zombie like as treatment progressed. These difficult, toxic cancer treatment sessions prompted him to invent the use of radio wave frequencies to kill cancer. So, John started working in his garage. Since childhood, John had been fascinated by radio waves. He soon discovered that nanoparticles and other molecules can be heated with radio waves and that cancerous cells are eradicated! In testing he discovered, that cancer cells could be eradicated, without side effects, in an 8 week period of time!</p>
<p>John Kanzius, sans the professional degree, has worked as owner and operator of a radio station and also engineered and managed TV stations. Radio waves were a childhood fascination and a major component of his adult work. Prior to Kanzius&#8217; breakthrough, using radio waves to cure cancer had not been an avenue pursued by ANY mainstream researchers. Contrary, researchers have concentrated their efforts on drugs, surgery and other medical cancer treatment interventions. Now, thanks to Kanzius&#8217; pioneering work, researchers are finding solutions through the science of physics. When John was queried as to what made him think he could invent a cure for cancer?, he responded, &#8220;no one else had done it.&#8221;</p>
<p>This possible cure gives many people hope but unfortunately, it is quite likely that the inventor himself might succumb to his cancer prior to benefiting from it as a curative cancer treatment. Preparing for such a scenario, John Kanzius has proactively made arrangements for his discovery to be handled by a corporation, and ensured that his hometown in PA could benefit once the FDA gave approval for the Radio Wave Machine&#8217;s use in killing cancer. It means a lot to his hometown in Erie county. The machine to cure some of the worst cancers, manufactured and then conducted at their local cancer center, will put the small town of Erie PA on the world&#8217;s map. It&#8217;s anticipated, that once instituted and approved, that visiting cancer patients will be coming in from all over the world.</p>
<p>Is it a little too early to call it a cure? Maybe? but the medical profession is very hopeful. The FDA has given Kanzius testing phase approval to receive international patients. The county of Erie is excited about the economic growth that will likely be experienced if the treatment is approved. It could mean a 10 billion increase in revenue for the county. A lot of key people and resources are behind Kanzius. Dr. Stephen Curly is a surgical oncologist and does cancer research at MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston. Curly said, &#8220;This has the most fascinating potential I&#8217;ve seen in anything in my twenty years of cancer research.&#8221; Dr. Curly continues to provide fund raising support so the research can continue at it&#8217;s miracle accelerated pace.</p>
<p>We at Boomer Yearbook will continue to follow John Kanzius&#8217;s Radio Wave Cancer Killing Machine and update you regularly. We hope you will write in to us and let us know what you think. We&#8217;d love to hear from you.</p>

<div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">                              <strong>            A Cure for Cancer</strong> </span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">I wish to ask you – the reader – a question that I suspect you have heard before. But, I am going to ask it anyway just to get started. Please read this entire letter, this is the hottest thing in Cancer treatment in America today. </span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">Over a billion dollars is spent each year on cancer. This includes cancer research, cancer treatments and cancer drugs. Clinics, research facilities and hospitals run on money donated to find a cure of cancer. What if they found out that a new process could cure many types of cancer without expensive treatments, without expense drugs, and with no side effects?  Would these groups greet the news with elation or dismay?</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">Let’s paint a scenario: You are the President and CEO of a billion-dollar Pharmaceutical company that markets cancer-fighting drugs. These drugs are very expensive and you sell many hundreds of millions of dollars worth each and every year. Your company employs 2,300 people who work in sales, research, administration and accounting. In other words, you are a highly successful billion-dollar corporation that is doing quite well. </span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">One day an employee of the research department rushes into your office. He is obviously very exited. When he catches his breath, he let’s you in on his news. “Chief, we have just found a cure for cancer!”</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">“You have,” you ask him guardedly.</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">“Yes, sir, tomatoes!”</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">“Tomatoes? Tomatoes cure cancer? Regular home grown variety ordinary tomatoes?”</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">“Yes sir, regular tomatoes. Taken in a certain way, they cure cancer with no side effects at all! And Chief, you can grow you own in your yard so you can cure yourself and it won’t cost you anything! Isn’t that great!!!”</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">How do you respond? Now I am sure the thought of curing cancer is something you have often paid lip service to, but now that you as the CEO of this giant pharmaceutical are faced with a cure, how do you feel? What do you say?</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">As you stare at your employee you begin to feel ill. You can see your job, your company, the jobs of all 2,300 employees, all the shareholders money and many others affiliated with the work you do all being ruined overnight. You are going to lose hundreds of millions of dollars not this year, but this year, next year, the year after that, and every year forever. You are about to lose billions of dollars and your job. </span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">How do you respond?</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">We all would love to say we stand up and shout, “Praise the Lord!” because we are all good people and curing cancer is a wonderful thing – something we had dedicated our life to or at least seemed to. But if you think that, you are more than a bit naive. </span></div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">I am not going to carry this any further and I am not going to say the CEO would bury the cure because I don’t know what would happen. But what I do know is nobody making a fortune off a disease is truly dedicated to curing that disease. Treating it yes, curing it, no.</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">Do you know how new drugs are brought to market? A pharmaceutical company with a research lab discovers this drug they think might treat a certain disease. They present their facts to the FDA and ask for approval for a Clinical Trial. Sometimes the National Institute of Health will give a grant to a company to run a trial but at others the company will pay for the trial themselves if the FDA gives them the okay to go ahead.</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">So they begin their trial. First, they run a Phase 1 with a few people. If that is successful then they run a Phase II with more people. If that is successful then they run a Phase III with even more people. If that is successful they petition the FDA for approval to market their drug. They may have spent a couple of hundred million dollars on this trial but if the drug gets approval, they can sell it and recoup their money and make a lot more. It’s a big stake gamble but that’s what they do. That&#8217;s why they put up the money for the trial. </span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">The FDA is empowered to make the final decision but everyone is aware that the Drug Company has a huge financial investment in that drug and &#8211; well we&#8217;ll let it go there.</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">Now back to the tomato cure. In order to be sure the tomato cure works and has no bad side effects, we have to run just such a Clinical Trial. And to run that trial, someone has to pay the hundreds of millions of dollars that are needed. </span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">Do you think any pharmaceutical company that is basically going to be put out of business if this trial is successful is going to offer to pick up the tab? I don’t think so. Okay then, where is the money to come from? </span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">Well, one way is for the Federal Government to &#8211; through the National Institute of Health &#8211; pick up the cost of the tomato trials. Actually that&#8217;s about the only way. And if the FDA won&#8217;t or can&#8217;t put up that money, the trials may simply be put on the back burner and things will go back to normal. </span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">Now just to explain: we are dealing here with a maybe – maybe the tomatoes will work and maybe there will be great success and maybe there will be NO side affects. But we won’t know that until we finish these very expensive tests. And convincing the government that it should put all that money into tests on tomatoes may be a hard sell since if the tomatoes don’t work, a lot of people are going to point fingers in their direction.</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">So maybe the tomato tests will get run and maybe they won’t. Or maybe they cut the money way down and try just a little test and if that works, try a little bigger test and so on and so on. And maybe they will and maybe they won’t. And why the uncertainty?<br />
Because no one is going to make any money from this discovery so no one is going to invest any of his money in it. Certainly, cancer may be cured but while that may be a great thing for we-the-people, it isn’t so great for these particular companies.<br />
They could end up out of business and a lot of their lives ruined. You can’t expect them to voluntarily contribute to their own demise. </span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">Now why am I writing this. Well, because someone like this is going on right now outside of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania where a new cancer treating technique that proponents think will cure many cancers with no side effects and no expensive treatments or drugs, is languishing for lack of sufficient money to move it forward.<br />
This is not some third world miracle drug, or something off the back shelf. This is not some goofy idea promulgated by a disbarred doctor. No, this is a process invented by a man who had cancer and died from his cancer a few months ago, before his machine could be used on him. This is an idea that has gotten a lot of publicity and a lot of attention and may well be the best idea in cancer treatment in the past 50 years. But it has a couple of problems. It is NOT expensive, it uses NO high-priced drugs, and there are NO side effects.</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">The tests of this treatment to date have been 100% successful and they have been conducted in some of our finest cancer research facilities. But it is time to move forward through the next stage, i.e. human tests. This takes money, in fact about 12 million dollars over the next two years. Where is that money going to come from? Who will benefit from this cure? We will. Those of us are afraid of cancer, those of us who have cancer, those of us who have loved ones that have had cancer. WE are the ones to put up the money to drive these tests forward. Or nobody will. The hospitals have been getting some money but we need to raise 12 million to get this done!</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">This has been called the best new idea in cancer treatment in 50 years. Okay then I say we find 100,000 people who will contribute $100 each to the hospitals that are conducting the tests on The Kanzius Machine. (The Kanzius machine is named after its inventor John Kanzius, recently deceased from cancer. Sadly John’s own machine could not be used on him since it is illegal to use devices such as this one before they receive FDA approval so the doctors couldn’t do it.)  </span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">At this time, I want you to cut and paste the following link and go read about The Kanzius Foundation. Read about this marvelous potential cure for many types of cancers not ten years or twenty years from now but as soon as the trials are finished and the results approved which could be within five years. Here’s the link: read the rest of this article and then go to the link and read all about the Foundation. It was featured twice on 60 Minutes and created quite a stir. </span></div>

<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">Okay so now you know, this is very promising but they need lots of money to get it done. Whatever you give is tax deductible but $100 from 100,000 of us should do the trick. Checks can be made (as outlined in the link) to The Kanzius Foundation in Pittsburgh, Pa. </span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">Come on folks, this is for us. After all, we can’t reasonably expect those people or corporations that are going to lose so much money if this is successful, to chip in to put themselves out of business. This is something we have to do for ourselves. Write your check today. It’s the best $100 bucks you will ever spend. </span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">Send it to THE KANZIUS FOUNDATION at the address on the link: We CAN cure Cancer. You and me – so let’s do it now. A good man died to bring us this idea which he conceived at Children’s Hospital in Philadelphia watching kids die of Cancer as he stood there crying helplessly. We can make his dream a reality if you will help. So, what do you say – are you willing to make the effort? After all, the life you save may be your own or that a loved one or friend. You just never know where Cancer is going to strike next. </span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: small;">Thank you and please, pass this on. It’s really up to us this time.</span></div>
