BANGKOK, Thailand -- China is tightening control over Tibet and flexing its strategic roof of the world advantage by cyber-spying on the Dalai Lama's supporters "worldwide from Lhasa to London," opening Tibet's international airport to Singapore and Nepal, and building the world's biggest hydroelectric dam on a glacier-fed river.

China prizes resource-rich Tibet's lofty Himalayan heights which allow the People's Liberation Army to "look down" on India, China's regional rival, and provide a formidable buffer between Beijing and New Delhi.

The United Kingdom's GCHQ intelligence agency meanwhile is warning Tibetan and foreign activists, researchers, and supporters of the self-exiled 14th Dalai Lama that they are in danger of infection from "malicious actors" who created international surveillance malware identified as MOONSHINE and BADBAZAAR.

The British government's National Cyber Security Center (NCSC) which is part of the GCHQ, said Chinese also created snooping apps deceptively resembling WhatsApp and Skype which allow text, audio, and video.

On Wednesday, May 7th, requests will be sent out by Representatives Michele Grim and Tristan Rader, to all Ohio House representatives asking them to co-sponsor 'The Ohio Healthcare Plan', the bill which would establish a universal, publicly funded healthcare finance system in Ohio.

Please call your Ohio representative and ask him/her to co-sponsor and support the bill.

Don't know who your Ohio rep is?

Go to 'Find My State Legislators', then it will ask for your address to find your rep. and his/her phone number.

Here's what to say:

I am ______, your constituent in ______County.

Ohioans have suffered from lack of access to good health care for too long. We have worse health outcomes than most other states.

This is due to being uninsured or having insurance that has such high deductibles that we hesitate too long before seeking care.

It's time you realize that a large majority of Ohioans favor a universal system of healthcare financing.

I ask that you co-sponsor and implement 'The Ohio Health Care Plan'.

The 1970 killings by National Guardsmen of four students during a peaceful anti-war demonstration at Kent State University have now been shown to be cold-blooded, premeditated official murder. But the definitive proof of this monumental historic reality is not, apparently, worthy of significant analysis or comment in today’s mainstream media.

After 37 years of official denial and cover-up, tape-recorded evidence, that has existed for decades and has been in the possession of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), has finally been made public.

It proves what “conspiracy theorists” have argued since 1970—that there was a direct military order leading to the unprovoked assassination of unarmed students. Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) documents show collusion between Ohio Governor James A. Rhodes and the FBI that aimed to terrorize anti-war demonstrators and their protests that were raging throughout the nation.
