The Blessings and the Problems of Earplugs
http://www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eardrum
As you know, I am a former graduated EMT and I end up to learn this on the hard way. Last Year I caught an ear infection that woke me up very quickly! The blessing of earplugs is that will help you abate sometimes and for certain noise from 45% to 65% of the noise pollution on the surroundings perimeter. However here goes the down turn. Earplugs must be sanitized and cleaned at all times before you insert it in your ears and in addition you can not use it for long periods of time and I explain why!
1. The limited time of hours of use is because our body produce wax daily through the ears and if there are a build up of wax and it drops back into your Chochlea and Eustachian Tube; it has knowing to cause tinnitus or as we common refer to it; "ring of the ears"
2. The second point it is sanitation as I did mentioned before!
3. Third it does not block all noise. As an example, the Electrical Muni Bus whistles still coming through even with the plugs tucked in. It is even worse because as the sound still invading our bodies we have that tendency to push the plugs in causing some pain in and around the ear cartilage. http://www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eardrum ... more -
What TV can do to help us reach the greatest number of people?
When TV was invented, the original inventors dreamed that from its invention, it would be happening a social and economic revolution and in the process greatly benefit education. If anyone got the time to read some history about the invention of the Television, here is a link.

Television still holding the mass audience in the United States. This war was fabricated in part by Controlled Television Network Production! I do Thank Current Networks for the opportunity to express myself. However being part of it raise my feelings to make it better for people, for education and the environment. There are a lots of things that TV can do right now to refine its programming towards human education and development. Here is a little personal history. I guess many of you already know I love Radio. Not so long ago Radio was controlled and as they say democratically free. What that means? It means that people still controlling it but the musical programing was done by a popular voting system. My GOD, at some point it got so bad that I could not listen to it any longer. That means that some times the majority that is out there voting are not always into quality but into making wars. It become a daily shooting out game of destruction. I am not sure if that changed because I stopped listening to it. Now, just recently I had the opportunity to create a radio station to air something that is at least pleasant to ear it. Sure everything has its time and what is there is not everything but a little sample of Modern Rock and Roll.
So, what is the point here. The point is that the some majority are not always right and that we need help from our own Network to be able to reach that maximum audience numbers as possible with our Environmental News Release. I hope all you guys at the TVNEWS editorial board are willing to help us to do this. We do not want to settled to be only a Cyber Journal! We want to be Cyber Journal, TV, Internet, Magazine, Film, Theater and anything you can think about out there!
I personally have the goal to reach the biggest population ever with my human health environmental message! We got to change that wrong perception out there and there are a lots things Current TV Networks can do to help us out.

An Inconvenient Truth: Two years later
It has been two years since An Inconvenient Truth was released. These were my thoughts on it after seeing it for the first time:
I had a front row seat in a packed theatre to see Al Gore's An Inconvenient Truth last night. I can describe it in two words: a journey. It is Al Gore's journey of heart, soul, spirit, and mind through a lifetime of stewardship and also growth. For as much as this movie is a clarion call to all of us to now take our own journey for our planet, ourselves, and our children, it is also Al Gore's reckoning with himself. He lays his soul bare to warn us of the consequences of our inaction now regarding this crisis, because it relays to the events in his own life in the past that brought him to this point as well.
The scenes showing his early years in Congress, his son's car accident, the 2000 election (yes, I cried here,) and the very poignant scenes of him with his sister Nancy who died of lung cancer revealed to me a man not doing this out of any selfish political intent, but of a man who is telling you, the viewer, that even he has had to experience loss and near loss in his life in order to realize what he lost and how much of a part he played in it. I think those scenes were shown in direct correlation to this climate crisis and his message that we must not make the same mistake now with our planet.
Will we look back years from now regretting that we continued the very behavior that is contributing to this crisis even knowing what it is doing to our planet? Or will we take the necessary steps to change our ways and heed the warnings before it is too late? That is the question of this movie and there is no alarmism whatsoever in the presentation of the solutions we have at our disposal. Mr. Gore relays the facts starkly, calmly, and at times humorously, and clearly lays out what we can do to mitigate this crisis. And the scientific consensus cannot be denied that we as a species are contributing to it and it is having a definite effect on our world.
His statistics on Co2, invasive species, species loss, ice cap melting, population growth, etc., intertwined with footage from around the world showing the effects of the statistics he showed was all very well presented and backed up. I also never got the impression that any of this is about him in any other sense than him using himself as an example of someone who had to reach the bottom in order to reach for the top.
I laughed, I cried, and I saw before me on the screen a man who has surely come full circle with who he is and what his mission is, and that is handing that mission and truth to us. He says he is not a hero, and frankly, I didn't see a hero in this movie and that is a good thing. Heroes have a tendency to be placed on pedestals and forgotten. I saw something much more. I saw a prophet, a missive, and a trailblazer who has full faith in our abilty to save our planet. And we must not let our planet down, and that also includes those in government and the corporate world whose indifference to this issue can no longer be tolerated.

Clinton Statement On NY Airspace Czar Appointment
On April 8, 2008 presidential contender Hillary Rodham Clinton's statement regarding the appointment of Director Kennington-Gardinera included directing the new NY airspace czar to include the environmental impacts on residential communities in any criteria to address the metro area's congestion and delays (see below).
The New Jersey Coalition Against Aircraft Noise (NJCAAN) appreciates Clinton's statement that includes consideration regarding the health impacts generated by the aviation industry in the metro area. One clear way to address delays would be to utilize the restricted offshore military airspace for commercial aircraft. The military utilizes this airspace for training purposes. The unintended consequence is to force more commercial aircraft over residential communities.

Statement of Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton Regarding the Appointment of
the Director for the Federal Aviation Administration's New York Integration Office
"I am pleased that the FAA has finally taken action to appoint someone who can take a comprehensive look at the problems with our airspace. I certainly hope that Director Kennington-Gardinera will immediately begin the critical task of evaluating congestion at every step of the flight process, including the impact of flights over residential areas. While we must take action immediately to end the problems that plague our airports and airspace, any plans moving forward must also consider the quality of life for those people living in current and proposed flight paths. This is a quality of life issue for travelers as well as residents and this is our best chance to make sure everyone's concerns are heard."
Late last year, Senator Clinton joined her colleagues in the New York and New Jersey congressional delegation in calling for the appointment of an "airspace czar" to evaluate congestion at every step of the flight process - from tower control, to the TRACON, to the routing center.
