Extractions: House Subcommittee on Labor-HHS-Education Appropriations Mr. Chairman, and members of the Committee, I am pleased to be here on behalf of the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) to tell you about our great progress in understanding the brain basis of mental illnesses and about our active and growing collaborative efforts with our fellow National Institutes of Health (NIH) research institutes and with the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). The President's budget request for NIMH for FY 2005, a sum of $1,421 million, reflects an increase of $39 million over the comparable FY 2004 appropriation. In my statement, I will call to your attention the immense burden on our Nation of mental and behavioral disorders. In addition, in the context of our research activities and accomplishments, I will describe some of our trans-NIH initiatives to bring new treatments and preventive interventions from the laboratory to the clinical research arena and ultimately the practice communities. I will also discuss our ongoing and strengthened collaboration with SAMHSA to assist in implementing the science-based knowledge generated by investigators funded through NIH.

Extractions: The Council on Foreign Relations is the U.S. branch of the Illuminati, its British counterpart being the Royal Institute of International Affairs. Both are outgrowths of the Round Table conceived by Cecil Rhodes for the establishment of a future world government dominated by Britain and the U.S. The CFR is composed of both right and left political persuasions, as noted by Joseph Kraft in Harper's Magazine: [T]he Council [on Foreign Relations] plays a special part in helping to bridge the gap between the two parties, affording unofficially a measure of continuity when the guard changes in Washington. In theory at least, the Council comes close to being an organ of what C. Wright Mills has called the Power Elite a group of men, similar in interest and outlook, shaping events from INVULNERABLE positions behind the scenes...It has been called a government in exile. This dichotomy is also mentioned by Michael Howard in The Occult Conspiracy Initially the CFR was regarded by its critics as an elitist, right-wing power group and it was even accused of helping finance Hitler's rise to power... Following the Second World war however, the CFR has been labeled a promoter of international socialism through the United Nations. Conspiracy theorists claim it was the CFR who supported Henry Wallace's plan to have the Illuminist symbol of the eye in the triangle on the one dollar note [1945]. The CFR's apparent contradictory political ideals are said to be typical of modern Illuminati
Crowning Women Awards Dinner Willie Faye Bush is a native of Martin of Floridas African american Environmental Justice as the state network s Coordinating Council Representative since http://www.xula.edu/dscej/news and events/CrowningWomenAwardsDinner.html
Extractions: It was an occasion that many would agree was filled with excitement, reflection, testimonies, and celebration. "Crowning Women," was the first awards dinner held to honor women in the environmental justice movement. Thirteen women of color from across the country were honored for their fight for equal protection against pollution in their community. Twelve women were honored with the " Bread and Roses " award for their leadership, impact in grassroots organizing, innovation in solving enviromental justice problems, and commitment to the principles of environmental justice. The " Dana Alston " award paid tribute to the woman of color who has shown empicable leadership, a passion to serve her community, integrity, resilience against opposition, and longevitiy in the environmental justice movement. For generations, women of color have led and fought for the struggle of social, economic and environmental justice. They have struggled, sometimes in the forefront but more often in the shadowed spaces of men within social movements. In many cases men take public roles on the national and international levels; however, women provide the base, local leadership and behind-the-scenes activism upon which social movements are built. The environmental justice movement is no different. Untold numbers of Native American, African American, Latina American, Asian/Pacific Islander, Native Alaskan and Hawaiian women have dedicated their lives to fighting environmental threats to their families, homes, communities and workplaces.
