***The Global Non-transferable 0.5 limit plan***

The basis of the argument...

1) we are approximately 50% over global carrying capacity as a species.

2) one child can carry the biological records for two...where a second child assumes the burden of the necessary reduction in population be an involuntary forfeiture of the biological records of two other individuals...

3) under awareness of said earth system stress levels, and loss of specification, many may voluntarily forfeit the passing of their biology as a means of preserving species on the brink, and securing planetary health, while insuring the right of humans to breed, should they choose to, remain an accessible option....in order that this wish be respected, these voluntary forfeitures must not be allowed to become a birth credit to be assumed by any existing parent, maternal, paternal, or both, in the case of a second potential child.

In order that human rights be observed:

The following proposal sites the rights of children not yet created as per 1) that they may not be born into a world that cannot adequately support them, or if this world can arguably support them, that one may site a degraded world relative to that which the potential child’s forbears enjoyed would be the child’s inheritance…

The following proposal sites the right of humans to procreate as per 2), while imposing limits to protect the rights of others who may choose to employ this right…

The following proposal sites the right to chose not to reproduce, as per 3)

Proposed proceedings to safe guard these rights are as follows, and are to be applied equally on a global scale to all members of the human populous.

Initial Proceedings:

all male parents of existing children, that are not already fixed, would need to schedule an appointment to address the situation, or face issuance of a warrant for their arrest for obstruction of justice and associated fines....

all female parents of two or more existing children that are not fixed, would need to schedule an appointment to address the situation, or face issuance of a warrant for their arrest for obstruction of justice and associated fines....

all female parents of fewer than two existing children, should be informed that weather though abstinence, birth control, selection of a fixed male partner, or any other means, they may wish to avoid fines and procedures.

Protocol:

Post conception the suspected father would be incarcerated until such a
time that it can be determined beyond question that he indeed is the
father...If he is not the father, he is free to go... The woman
then, would be incarcerated until such a time as she could provide sufficient information to bring the father of her child into custody..Upon determination, the father of the child would undergo vasectomy before being released...

Should the mother choose to terminate the pregnancy in the first trimester, the father would be released unaltered. If she does not choose to terminate the pregnancy within the first trimester, this becomes a default decision to carry the child to term under the fore mentioned proceedings.

In any cases of a potential child , by a parent of an existing child, paternal, maternal or both, the offender(s) would have the choice of aborting the child or being put to death. The former decision inclusive of fines issued to a father potentially twice ,for assuming what should rightfully be the woman's choice, and issued to a mother potentially twice, as a means of securing finance for the tubal she would receive in post.

More great news from this "hotbed" of sustainable, USA-based energy technology and industry, from the Youngstown Business Journal:

* Biofuels Energy Project $2.5 million startup would convert algae.

* Youngstown's top development official updates viewers on job-creation initiatives.

If you are need working energy business models, or a place to build your new energy businesses, you should look at the Youngstown, Ohio region. We are already building it here with every tool in the tool box, including waste-to-energy, solar, wind, coal-to-aircraft fuel, and everything needed for Marcellus shale gas exploration.

We have unprecedented teamwork including our Regional Chamber of Commerce, universities, and government officials who understand and are committed to building our economy by eliminating our dependence on foreign oil.

Congressman Tim Ryan (OH-17) Newsletter Reported:

NORTHEAST OHIO IS RIPE FOR 'GREEN GROWTH'
In a Vindy article from Monday, Team NEO, a Cleveland-based nonprofit that promotes business development and attraction, released its quarterly economic report. The report focuses on the future of “clean-tech” industries in the 16 counties that make up Northeastern Ohio. Major Northeastern Ohio manufacturing sectors that make up the clean-tech supply chain include fabricated metals, plastics, machinery, iron and steel mills and structural metals.

These industries contribute $12.5 billion to the regional economy and make up 35 percent of manufacturing in the area. The industries are expected to grow more than 20 percent by 2015, according to the Team NEO report. The report points out that U.S. Department of Labor has identified occupations expected to see increased demand from the growing clean-tech sector, including computer-controlled machine tool operators, machine setters, materials scientists and industrial production managers.

SELECTED TO POWERFUL DEFENSE SUBCOMMITTEE
Earlier this week, I announced my selection to the powerful Defense Appropriations Subcommittee of the U.S. House of Representatives. I am humbled and honored to fill the vacancy caused by the untimely death of Congressman John Murtha of Pennsylvania.

The Defense Appropriations Subcommittee has jurisdiction over the Department of Defense – Military, Departments of Army, Navy (including Marine Corps), Air Force, Office of Secretary of Defense, certain Defense Agencies, the Central Intelligence Agency, and Intelligence Community Staff.

This appointment is a huge win for the 17th District. The Defense budget is the largest of all the budgets in the United States government. Having the opportunity to steer federal defense dollars to our district will accelerate the economic progress of our region and further promote the Tech Belt initiative. I will make sure everyone doing business with the Pentagon knows what a great place Northeast Ohio is to do business.

I have been given a very serious responsibility and a tremendous opportunity to serve on the subcommittee that provides direction and funding for our national security. I will work extremely hard to make sure the men and women who serve our great country have all of the resources they need. This seat on the Defense Appropriations subcommittee will have a significant impact on our military facilities at the Ravenna Training and Logistics Site and the Youngstown-Warren Air Reserve Wing and its 910 Airlift Wing, as well as the manufacturers and contractors in our region that provide equipment and services to the military.

In Fiscal Year 2010, the Defense Appropriations subcommittee appropriated more than $625.9 billion for Defense-related activities including operations and training, health care for uniformed and civilian personnel, the maintenance of arms, equipment and facilities, and the development and purchase of new equipment.

I also joined the Appropriations Subcommittee on Financial Services and General Government and retained his seat on the Appropriations Subcommittee on Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education.

PRESIDENT OBAMA TO TRAVEL TO YOUNGSTOWN
I'm proud to announce that President Obama will be visiting Youngstown on Tuesday, May 18. The President will tour the V&M Star facility and address the current economy, and efforts to retain and create jobs in Northeastern Ohio and across the country.

I have been urging President Obama to visit the Mahoning Valley, and look forward to showing him first-hand the exciting progress that we are making here. National and international publications have recognized the positive economic news coming from our community. Our progress has now caught the attention of the President of the United States.

It is evident that our local economic development strategy is bearing fruit; residents, businesses, and local governments throughout the Valley and the District stand to reap long-term benefits from a number of recent positive investments in our economy – V&M Star, GM Lordstown, Revere Data, and Severstal Steel are just the beginning. These significant investments send a clear message that Ohio's 17th District has a world-class workforce and is home to a globally-competitive business climate.

TAA ASSISTANCE FOR FORMER MAHONING GLASS EMPLOYEES
Yesterday, I announced that workers of Mahoning Glass Plant in Niles, OH were certified to receive important job training and placement assistance from the U. S. Department of Labor.

According to the report issued by the Department of Labor:

"All workers of Mahoning Glass Plant, GE Appliances and Lighting Division, a subsidiary of General Electric Co., Inc., Niles, Ohio, who became totally or partially separated from employment on or after March 29, 2010, through two years from the date of certification, and all workers in the group threatened with total or partial separation from employment on the date of certification through two years from the date of certification, are eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under Chapter 2 of Title II of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended."

I will continue to urge the Obama Administration to provide TAA benefits for all constituents in the 17th District who have lost their jobs. The advantages provided by training and job placement assistance will position the former employees of Mahoning Glass Plant for success in a new economy.

* Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) and Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance (ATAA) help trade-affected workers who have lost their jobs as a result of increased imports or shifts in production out of the United States. Certified individuals may be eligible to receive one or more program benefits and services depending on what is needed to return them to employment.
