Thank you for the kind words. My business, "West Boca Karate", established in 1986, in the Shoppes of Loggers Run, keeps me busy. With over 500 Black Belts and thousands of loyal and happy customers, (over our 26 years span) I am now able do things in our community like helping to get Alan West elected was very important to me. I would like to say, Linda, my wife, and I both enjoy listening to you each morning. I heard you and Jim speaking about Iran and would like to weigh in. Sanctions against Iran are nothing more than a tool they will use against us at a later date. They also have a tendency to hurt the people of the country and make them mad. Change can only take place in this country in two ways, as I see it. 1. Change needs to come from within. The people of Iran have to say they have had enough. Methods like social media can work, however will take longer and can be interfered with by the government of Iran. 2. More effective and I feel will be much faster, would be to get to the Iranian citizens that exist behind the scenes/shadows, the ones that have the ears and power that control the Iranian government. I would venture to say that the CIA knows exactly who these people are and where they live. More than likely, many of them live in the USA and some countries we are friendly with. Force these people to move back to their country, Iran, and uproot their entire lives. Brian, the opposite of Love is not hate, it's indifference. When you dismiss a persons existence or a countries existence, for that matter, that is effective pain. Change will come much quicker when the right people can feel the loss.

Job Creation

Whenever it falls upon a president or a committee to find ways of creating jobs for a nation in abnormal times of serious national unemployment these steps should be followed:

1. Seek projects that will employ a diverse number of highly technically skilled trades as well as an unskilled work force. (College kids and locals)

2. Look for investors from the private sector to take part in a national project that will be run by the private sector and government jointly. Incentives for private investors would be:
1: Government donated land for all five projects.
2: Access to money and loans.
3. Government will donate the land and oversee placement of five projects within the nation. Placement of said projects must immediately benefit large populations by relieving unemployment in the immediate area and socially upscale the local area.

4. Project scope: Must take over large areas of land. Provide plans for a new and advanced transportation system. Provision must be met to secure future area growth by providing development for surrounding business and industry.
5. Project completion must provide a growing community of highly technical job creation as well as an unskilled labor force to support local business.

6. Implementations should start in five locations chosen by the government seen to provide a clear opportunity for both job opportunity for the local population as well as socially upgrade the surrounding area.

7. The implementations of an oversight team (government and private) that can oversee all five projects in areas of development continuity and problem solving.

Conclusion: The creation of five projects of this size running simultaneous and strategically located within the United Stated will see to the unemployment problem. Funding should be private with the incentive being donated government land and future profits. Each project should be an amusement park the size of a Disney or bigger with the same idea as Disney of building a community of high tech jobs with local support from area population. Each project should be placed within the nation in such a way as to create a travel loop, that will get the populous to want to travel by all means of transportation with an emphasis placed on travel by car mostly creating an environment for more spending within the nation. The creation of amusement parks the size and stature of a Disney will always be seen by the populous as creation and opportunity for the local community and will act as a catalyst for future growth in the of business and industry.

How Does The Entrepreneurial World of Seal Team 1‘s, Stack Up To The United States Navy’s, Seal Team 1

Seal Team 1, Wow! the best of the best. For many people in America and around the world this is the flash that produces the thoughts and pictures in the minds of all of us as those words are spoken, and rightly so. They are the best, at what they choose to do. A team of men and women so finely tuned that a comparison can only produce one and only one thought and that is of the finest of Swiss Time Pieces. So finely created that its workings are without question as to pre session and accuracy. Seal Teams train and execute missions much like this watch. Never missing a beat. A question arises however, Seal Team member, outside of his or her team, what do they aspires to? As an individual they are successful men and women that have acquired skills. Ask yourself this question. What is the difference between Ability and Skill? Ability is what we are born with and is given to us by God. Skill is what we have acquired through training and experience. What is experience? Trial and error...mostly error, bad chooses we hopefully learn from. There has never been nor will there ever be a Seal Team member or Team born with “ability only” that can do what Seal Team 1 has accomplished. Be dropped into Pakistan and take out Osama Bin Ladin. Individual Seal Team member training, and teamwork, are only but two of a three part quest for the making of a Seal Team 1 capable unit. The third part, is experience, and that is a killer. The Seals, of Seal Team 1 have had to do a mission or missions like this before to acquire the experience to qualify for the first team. If you were a member of any of the other teams and failed, there is a good chance you’re dead. If you’re in Entrepreneurial World you’re probably broke, out of business and would like to be dead. Okay, you have passed the test and by trail and error you have been found worthy of your new position. SEAL Team 1... STOP! I forgot to tell you one more thing you have to know.

Do you remember that Swiss Time Piece we where talking about? The one that can run one hundred years without missing a beat. Why do you think it can do that? I will tell you why. Because it knows it’s a Swiss Time Piece and it has Purpose, Integrity and Honor, made by a team of people with the same values. I see it this way. While the sum of the parts are enclosed in that solid gold watch case it will do its job and never let its team members that are also enclosed in that solid gold case down. For many of us that solid gold case may be an office or a basket ball court or a football field. For a Seal Team 1 member it’s the world stage. We can never forget the reasons we do the things we do. That’s what gets us home at the end of the day. When you walk through that door and hold the people you love in your arms, does it really matter how you got there? Or just that you’re there. At night, lie that solid gold watch on your night stands, and get into bed. Slide up to your world and hold them in your arm as you smile knowing the world your world is safer and better then it was yesterday.

No Death Sentence/Life W/O Parole on circumstantial evidence

Please
Sign Our Petition
http://tiny.cc/wf0oj

Case in point, Casey Anthony, you do not try to give a person a death sentence, or life in prison “Without Parole” only on circumstantial evidence. Justification for this kind of sentencing can only be made with hard factual evidence. Governor, Senators and Speaker, every day we read in the newspapers someone is getting out of prison because of new DNA evidence being found, or a new DNA test has been invented. Well, where is the balance for people who have been convicted on circumstantial evidence? When no physical evidence exist in a case it becomes impossible to prove your innocence. Today, it would seem one rule covers all events that fall into a specific category...such as crimes that fall under "capital felony". It needs to be changed by people who refuse to give the rule of law to another RULE... instead of giving it to a thinking person. Legislation I would like you to consider. I would ask that legislation be crafted that would not allow a person convicted on circumstantial evidence to receive a life term without parole. Please make this retroactive for all persons now being held in Florida jails. Have all persons that fall into this category go in front of a parole board for a review. If they have served an amount of time the board feels is just, and they have not been getting in any trouble while incarcerated, what would be the harm in giving them their life back? It would also save Florida some money and relieve the overcrowding in our prisons. Ron Tramontano
