Our gang society believes its strength comes from initiation, the ability to kill someone

When we have a president who thinks our power is in our brave men and women who serve our country Rosetta Stone outlet through war, why are we surprised when children pick up guns and emulate soldiers with weapons to destroy people different from us? Our gang society believes its strength comes from initiation, the ability to kill someone.Our president took us to war to avenge the 3,000 deaths of 9/11. The price: more than 3,000 more deaths of our citizens.When our leadership can evolve to the fact that killing is not the healthy solution for mankind, and that the biggest gun does not define the most powerful country, we'll make headway in preventing such tragedies. Marilee Ullmann,Thousand OaksGlobal warming questionFor anybody who still believes Al Gore and thinks the greenhouse gas, carbon dioxide, is the cause of global warming, I have one question: If greenhouse gases are so effective in warming the climate, why are the highest temperatures recorded where there are the least amount of greenhouse gases?Water vapor is the most abundant greenhouse gas, but the warmest temperatures are recorded in the driest places. Water vapor varies from 0 percent to 4 percent of the atmosphere. On average, it can be considered to be 1 percent of the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide is 0.04 percent of the atmosphere. This means Rosetta Stone German water vapor is 95 percent of the greenhouse gases.Yet, the warmest temperatures are recorded where 95 percent of the greenhouse gases are absent. Why? David J. Ameling,Newbury ParkFluoride warning neededI must say that it took strength for a member of the Triunfo Sanitation District board to step up and try to include an advisory about fluoridation via a letter in the local newspaper. I thank Ron Stark of TSD for doing that.However, not all TSD customers will be reading his letter, and it doesn't take away TSD's responsibility to post a warning on its bills. The cost of doing that was an objection by Stark. Another board member sees no problem posting that advisory, and it wouldn't be costly. Cost shouldn't be the issue anyway when it comes to performing due diligence.Based on the conclusions of the National Research Council's report, we have requested that TSD place a warning on its bill to alert its customers that only unfluoridated bottled water should be used to prepare infant formula to prevent infants and babies from overdosing on fluoride.Other vulnerable population groups, such as diabetics, kidney patients, those with compromised immune systems, athletes and laborers who drink a lot of water should also Rosetta Stone Greek be alerted that they should use nonfluoridated bottled water or risk adverse health effects from unsafe levels of fluoride exposure.Due diligence calls for the advisory to be in the form of a page stapled to the front of the monthly bill so that all their customers have the opportunity to see it. The citizens are asking TSD board members again to place this issue on their next agenda. Caroline Aslanian,Oak ParkFree money?Maybe some community service for that free money that is falling from the tax-rebate helicopters should be in the offing. After all, the cost of that $160 billion rebate is being added to our $9 trillion deficit, or the Federal Reserve will print more money to pay for it.So, maybe, a little litter pickup assignment or crossing-guard service in your community should be [Rosetta Stone] required since Americans are more than happy to accept that free money falling from the sky.Do Americans ever ask how all these tax cuts are paid for? Just look at your gas and milk prices, your healthcare and water bills oh, well! There goes that free money !Community service is a nice gesture anyway!
