Rape in The Military | Socyberty

Rape in The Military | Socyberty

Rape in the military is a sad but true fact but that’s not the end if it. It’s also how the military handles the situation. Often the victims are discouraged from reporting rape and when they do report it little is done. A class action was filed Tuesday by a group of U.S. veterans who say they were raped and abused by their comrades then forced to live and work along side of them. They want to force the Pentagon to change how such cases are handled. Named in the federal class-action lawsuit were Defense Secretary Robert Gates and his predecessor, Donald Rumsfield.

Politics in America | Socyberty

Americans complain about crooked politics and unsavory candidates, and it’s the truth. Look on the Internet, Newspapers or TV, and there are the names of politicians dealing in corruption, adultery,swindles and about anything you can think of. But we tend to think that earlier in our history politicians were more honest and acted with less self interest. Not so. Take a look at some of the earlier politicians in America. Don’t get me wrong. We do have politicians who are honest to the extent possible but most of it is self interest all the way.

The End of The Recession May be in Sight | Socyberty

The end of the recession may be in sight. The economy is picking up faster than economists estimated last year. Businesses are more stable and are hiring more workers. Lower taxes and higher stock prices are encouraging the population to spend more money and empower the economy. Things are looking up, folks. We aren’t there yet, but we are on our way.

A New Study of Breast Cancer Surgery | Healthmad

According to a new study on breast cancer surgery, at least 20% of breast cancer patients have been routinely undergoing painful lymph node removable which was unnecessary. New studies show the long painful process of lymph node removal from under the arm does not make cancer less likely to reoccur nor does it improve the survival rate of many breast cancer patients. Experts say the new study will change the treatment of many breast cancer patients.

You can learn to sew. You can make beautiful clothes and enjoy your own creations. It doesn’t take expensive lessons. All it takes is a piece of material, a pattern, a pair of scissors, straight pins, thread and a needle. If you have a sewing machine, that’s great. But if not, don’t let that stop you. It will be more time consuming but the results will be just as satisfying.

Inner peace may seem impossible with all the upheavals and disappointments we are faced with every day. But it is possible to create our own inner peace. If you feel your life is off track take time out to find your inner self. When you find your own strength you won’t worry so much about life’s problems. You will learn peace of mind is still possible in grief, or when the world seems to have gone haywire. It’s all within you and it was there all the time.
