When War has Passed - Vietam
March 2003
Vietnamese children are still suffering the horrific effects of Agent Orange.
A child stumbles aimlessly, covered in grotesque brown growths; the living legacy of America's chemical warfare policy in Vietnam. Between 1961 and 1971 the US Air Force sprayed 72 million litres of chemicals. Horrific pictures show the range and devastation US dioxins have caused in Vietnam.

My efforts along with some caring members of our community and our attorney, have made some positive strides towards a "cleaner" environment, but the challenge to end the harm persists as our legal struggle continues to move forward after nearly 4 years now. From what I have seen, this legal struggle will proceed to reveal new information as time passes.
I decided long ago to see this arduous task through until I am fully satisfied with the end result(S) indicative of a "clean" environment no matter what it takes or how long simply because long after I am gone there will be others who may appreciate a "cleaner" place in which to live and raise their families without worrying about the likelyhood of serious health problems. My reasoning is simple because it is the "right" thing to do and someone needed to see that this mess wasn't just swept under the rug.
My guess is any damage that is already done is irreverseable, which is extremely disheartening.
The lack of respect for our environment due to the GREED from BIG business is utterly disgusting to say the least.

**A special thanks is in order to the Toxic Action Center from Portland Maine. Their dedication to our Non-Profit cause deserves to be recognized as well. Thank You for your help when we needed it.
http://www.msha.gov/ Once there just
"click" on Data Retrieval System on the left hand side, and simply enter Dragon's Mine Identification Number (1700022). From there, you can access a wealth of information including history, Mine Accidents, Health issues, Violations, and more. Enjoy! I did, and still do.
PS: YES this is Public information under FOIA (Freedom of Information Act) and it is made available by the U.S. Department of Labor. It is quite a useful tool indeed.

Note: I am searching for more information on the toxic effects on humans for ALL of the chemicals known to come from Dragon Cement according to EPA records, anyway. Please bear with me, as this will be frequently updated. Thanks.
As I mentioned, I have witnessed these Wild Turkeys eating (most recently this morning as you see in this video) and drinking VERY close to the Dragon Cement Plant, and this video shows beyond a shadow of a doubt, that these defenseless wild birds are activly feeding and or drinking/wandering through the Dragon's Cement lair.
What toxic chemicals are these Wild Turkeys and other living, and even plant life (through their roots and leaves) ingesting?? Is there Mercury in that soil? (I firmly believe there is Mercury and other harmful toxic contaminants in the soil, water, and elsewhere since Dragon burns thousands of tons of Coal and Petroleum Coke (and who really knows what else) annually? Is there Lead, Dioxin's and Furan's in the soil as well? Are there high levels of Nitrates or Sulfates in that soil or the water?
The odds that there are harmless levels of these contaminants is very slim to none given the incredible amount of fossil fuels, explosive residue and contaminated soils/leachate that Dragon burns in it's Cement Kiln (and we don't really know what "chemical compounds" are in the soil prior to incineration unless that soil itself has been tested prior to incinerating it). Common sense easily dictates that point.
It would then be logical to conclude that the wildlife is ingesting toxic chemical compounds, and in fact the whole food chain would be negatively impacted by the toxic constituants in the soil and water.
It is my firm belief, and I am entitled to believe or express my opinion, and the ONLY WAY to prove me wrong would be to perform the appropriate TESTS. By that I mean an independant, scientific laboratory, with NO affiliation or interest whether Political or business oriented, what-so-ever, in ANY form with Dragon Cement, LLC.
Testing all surrounding areas for these chemicals/elements seems to be highly logical and morally correct, in order to protect these innocent wild animals, not to mention protecting human beings!!
To simply ignore the most obvious contamination issues is preposterous and blatantly inhumane.

Acne relief, cure and home remedies "ance"
http://tinyurl.com/5lffrn
The root cause of why some people get acne and some do not is not fully known. It is known to be partly hereditary. Several factors are known
to be linked to acne:
* Family/Genetic history. The tendency to develop acne runs in families. For example, school-age boys with acne often have other members in their family with acne as well. A family history of acne is associated with an earlier occurrence of acne and an increased number of retentional acne lesions.
* Hormonal activity, such as menstrual cycles and puberty. During puberty, an increase in male sex hormones called androgens cause the glands to get larger and make more sebum.
* Inflammation, anti-inflammatories are known to improve acne
* Stress, through increased output of hormones from the adrenal (stress) glands, although modern tests have said otherwise and point to this not being a cause.
* Hyperactive sebaceous glands, secondary to the
three hormone sources above.
* Accumulation of dead skin cells.
* Bacteria in the pores. Propionibacterium acnes (P. acnes) is the anaerobic bacterium that causes
acne. In-vitro resistance of P. acnes to commonly used antibiotics has been increasing.
* Skin irritation or scratching of any sort will activate inflammation.
* Use of anabolic steroids.
* Any medication containing halogens (iodides, chlorides, bromides), lithium, barbiturates, or androgens.
* Exposure to certain chemical compounds. Chloracne is particularly linked to toxic exposure to dioxins,
namely Chlorinated dioxins.
Several hormones have been linked to acne: the androgens testosterone, dihydrotestosterone (DHT) and
dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS), as well as insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-I). In addition, acne-prone skin has been shown to be insulin resistant.
Development of acne vulgaris in later years is uncommon, although this is the age group for Rosacea which may have similar appearances. True acne vulgaris in adult women may be a feature of an underlying condition such as pregnancy and disorders such as polycystic ovary
syndrome or the rare Cushing's syndrome. Menopause-associated acne occurs as production of the natural anti-acne ovarian hormone estradiol fails at menopause. The lack of estradiol also causes thinning hair, hot flashes, thin skin, wrinkles, vaginal dryness, and predisposes to osteopenia and osteoporosis as well as triggering acne (known as acne climacterica in this situation).
