WORLD WAR II--TULE LAKE INTERNMENT CAMP AND POW CAMP

Tule Lake Internment CampTwo months after the bombing of Pearl Harbor by the Empire of Japan on December 7,1941, Franklin D. Roosevelt signed Executive Order No. 9066, a proclamation that ultimately consigned 110,000 Japanese Americans to ten internment camps scattered throughout the United States. Tule Lake was the largest of the internment camps with a peak population of 18,789 persons of Japanese descent. Tule Lake was the only camp turned into a high-security segregation center, ruled by martial law and occupied by the United States Army.Stripped of their constitutional rights, Japanese American men, women and children were allowed one trunk per person and sent to camps around the country - leaving behind their homes, businesses and personal belongings built over a lifetime. Tule Lake Prisoner of War CampJust a few miles north of the ancient lava flows of Lava Beds National Monument - nestled next to a high bluff -- lies a group of buildings weathered by more than sixty-years of extreme temperatures and the dry dust-filled winds of the Modoc Plateau.These rustic buildings, scattered like unwanted tumbleweeds in the wind, once housed Japanese American internees, and both Italian and German prisoners-of-war.The Tule Lake Branch Prisoner of War Camp (Camp Tulelake) was originally used as a Civilian Conservation Corps camp in the 1930's. (This camp should not be confused with the nearby Tule Lake War Relocation Center.) The camp, built between 1935 and 1938, contained some thirty structures - including administration, barracks, mess hall and hospital -- all grouped around a central courtyard.Japanese Americans who were interned at the Tule Lake Relocation Center (five miles to the east) who refused to answer the WRA's loyalty questionnaire were arrested and temporarily held at the CCC camp. A second group of Japanese Americans arrived in October of 1943 when evacuee farm workers at the Tule Lake Relocation (Segregation) Center went on strike. To break the strike, 234 Japanese Americans from other relocation centers were brought in to harvest crops in the area. For their protection, the Japanese Americans were housed at the CCC camp.As the war intensified in Europe, modifications were made to the CCC camp. A double fence was erected to form a compound around the barracks and mess hall. Four guard towers with searchlights were built at the corners; a patrol road, gate and sentry post were added as well.Italian POWs lived at the camp first and then were replaced by German POWs in late 1944, after the Allied invasion of Normandy, France. The Italian and German POWs were brought in to help local farmers clear canals of moss and algae and to help in harvesting their crops. The Italian and German POWs were often paid more than the Japanese American internees to do the same type of work. Camp Tulelake reached its peak population of more than 800 POWs by the end of October 1944. Today, only five of the original CCC buildings remain. The buildings, which include the mess hall and kitchen, a barracks, garage, paint shop, and pump house, are presently abandoned and in poor condition.Camp Tulelake now resides on land within the Tule Lake National Wildlife Refuge. A barbed wire fence prevents public access to the buildings and no signs are posted to indicate the structures' historical significance. The current plan for the CCC/World War II POW camp is the demolition and destruction of the remaining buildings.

Secret "Geo-Engineering" Projects Threaten Unknown Environmental Dangers

http://www.prisonplanet.com/secret-geo-engineering-projects-threaten-unknown-environmental-dangers.htmlSecret "Geo-Engineering" Projects Threaten Unknown Environmental DangersU.S. government scientists bombarding skies with acid-rain causing pollutant in name of fighting global warmingPaul Joseph WatsonPrison PlanetFriday, September 5, 2008U.S. government scientists are bombarding the skies with the acid-rain causing pollutant sulphur dioxide in an attempt to fight global warming by "geo-engineering" the planet, despite the fact that injecting aerosols into the upper atmosphere carries with it a host of both known and unknown dangers.The proposal to disperse sulphur dioxide in an attempt to reflect sunlight was again raised in a London Guardian article this week entitled, Geoengineering: The radical ideas to combat global warming, in which Ken Caldeira, a leading climate scientist based at the Carnegie Institution in Stanford, California, promotes the idea of injecting the atmosphere with aerosols."One approach is to insert "scatterers" into the stratosphere," states the article. "Caldeira cites an idea to deploy jumbo jets into the upper atmosphere and deposit clouds of tiny particles there, such as sulphur dioxide. Dispersing around 1m tonnes of sulphur dioxide per year across 10m square kilometres of the atmosphere would be enough to reflect away sufficient amounts of sunlight."Experiments similar to Caldeira's proposal are already being carried out by U.S. government -backed scientists, such as those at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Savannah River National Laboratory in Aiken, S.C, who this year conducted studies which involved shooting huge amounts of particulate matter, in this case "porous-walled glass microspheres," into the stratosphere.The project, which reached its conclusion this past April, is closely tied to an idea by Nobel Prize winner Paul Crutzen, who "proposed sending aircraft 747s to dump huge quantities of sulfur particles into the far-reaches of the stratosphere to cool down the atmosphere."Such programs merely scratch the surface of what is likely to be a gargantuan and overarching black-budget funded project to geo-engineer the planet, with little or no care for the unknown environmental consequences this could engender.What is known about what happens when the environment is loaded with sulphur dioxide is bad enough, since the compound is the main component of acid rain, which according to the EPA "Causes acidification of lakes and streams and contributes to the damage of trees at high elevations (for example, red spruce trees above 2,000 feet) and many sensitive forest soils. In addition, acid rain accelerates the decay of building materials and paints, including irreplaceable buildings, statues, and sculptures that are part of our nation's cultural heritage."The health effects of bombarding the skies with sulphur dioxide alone are enough to raise serious questions about whether such programs should even be allowed to proceed.The following health effects are linked with exposure to sulphur.- Neurological effects and behavioural changes- Disturbance of blood circulation- Heart damage- Effects on eyes and eyesight- Reproductive failure- Damage to immune systems- Stomach and gastrointestinal disorder- Damage to liver and kidney functions- Hearing defects- Disturbance of the hormonal metabolism- Dermatological effects- Suffocation and lung embolismAccording to the LennTech website, "Laboratory tests with test animals have indicated that sulfur can cause serious vascular damage in veins of the brains, the heart and the kidneys. These tests have also indicated that certain forms of sulfur can cause foetal damage and congenital effects. Mothers can even carry sulfur poisoning over to their children through mother milk. Finally, sulfur can damage the internal enzyme systems of animals."Fred Singer, president of the Science Environmental Policy Project and a skeptic of man-made global warming theories, warns that the consequences of tinkering with the planet's delicate eco-system could have far-reaching dangers."If you do this on a continuous basis, you would depress the ozone layer and cause all kinds of other problems that people would rather avoid," said Singer.Even Greenpeace's chief UK scientist - a staunch advocate of the man-made global warming explanation - Doug Parr has slammed attempts to geo-engineer the planet as "outlandish" and "dangerous".Stephen Schneider of Stanford University, who recently proposed a bizarre plan to send spaceships into the upper atmosphere that would be used to block out the Sun, admits that geo-engineering could cause "conflicts between nations if geoengineering projects go wrong."[Rest at above URL]

Child Development Centre under Office of Phuket City

Special Report for Andaman News NBT (VHF dial) + FM90.5 Radio Thailand at 8.30am & perhaps relays/repeats on local Cable TV channel 1, broadcast to Phang Nga, Krabi & Phuket provinces, & possibly FM108 Mazz Radio 7.30pm in Phuket, Friday 5th September 2008 & http://thainews.prd.go.th/newsenglish/ Contact AndamanNews@yahoo.comThe children are taking us to their 'Dolphin' room. This is a pre-school lesson in the Child Development Centreunder the Office of Phuket City. The school bags are tidily placed on a shelf.After parents drop them off in the mornings, the children know what they have to do. Everyone is well dressed, ready to learn new things, join in activities, have meals, and play. This is a preparation stage for everyone before they are introduced to the first lesson on their education path. "We have 4 Child Development Centres. They accept children aged 4 years up. The centers prepare the children for social skills & to be independent at a certain level." This week is 'Good Health and Wellness' at the Child Development Centre. The children then learn about their bodiesand simple health care. Now, it's time for a midday nap. The Child Development Centre, under the Office of Phuket City,currently opens for all children, different from its original purpose when starting in 1995 to serve only the children of the municipality's staff. While the younger ones are taking a nap,it's time for the older ones of K.1 and K.2to exercise with different equipment located in the grounds of the kindergarten school under the Office of Phuket City. It is situated nearby within the compound of the Office of Phuket City's Public Library. Everything looks so fun. It's difficult to make up your mind. The Office of Phuket City has opened classes for this kindergarten on a trial period for one semester now. It started by giving lessons to kindergarten students from Tesaban Ban Bang Niew school.The school accepts new enrollment in the 2009 academic year. "We originally planned to stop kindergarten educationin some of our schools to get prepared for the Office's Kindergarten School which is called Tesaban 6. But we still face limits in term of classrooms & teachers so we delayed it & will fully commence in 2009. We are determined to prepare the best for children to go to their 1st, 2nd, 3rd & 4th year." The children begin to learn about the open world and meet more new friends here.
