New Book on PTSD in Whistleblowers includes story centering in New Boston and Goffstown

Folks,

my name is Michael Volpe and I'm an investigative journalist. I've written a lengthy investigative piece, been on television, and now I've written a book that includes a story that the mainstream media in New Hampshire has chosen to continue to ignore.I thought a web site like yours might take it up.   It is the story of a roofer named Gerard Beloin and he became a whistleblower when he discovered a case of bid rigging in a roofing project he was bidding on at his daughter's school. Below is the investigative piece I wrote about this.

I've also been on tv, that link is below.

A PDF of the book is also attached. So, hopefully, someone will give this story the attention it deserves.

ALG's Daily Grind - Will markets crash without a capital gains and dividends tax fix?

Will markets crash without a capital gains and dividends tax fix?

Many investors would sell their stocks now to lock in the lower tax rate, and each day that goes by without resolution to the fiscal cliff, the more likely a selloff becomes.

The missing link

Taking away 3 to 5 percent of the incomes of top-earners won't really hurt most of the so-called "wealthy" all that much, but it sure will hurt those who depend upon the expenditure of their discretionary income.

Hedges: Three Men Who Wouldn't Let the NSA Get Away With It

"[W]histle-blowers such as Kirk Wiebe and William Binney, both of whom worked at the National Security Agency and then left because of mismanagement and corruption, have warned that intelligence agencies are abusing the Constitution and lavishing private companies with expensive contracts in exchange for subpar data processing and analysis systems."

CEI - Fight Global Warming Scare Tactics - FOIA-WOW!

CEI has two issues that might interest you today, to blog, write or tweet about.

First, in documents obtained this week by CEI, the Treasury Department acknowledged, in previously internal discussions, that global warming cap-and-trade legislation would cost taxpayers hundreds of billions of dollars.  You may have noticed that most proponents of cap-and-trade energy restrictions won't even acknowledge it amounts to a tax on consumers and energy use.  CEI Senior Fellow Christopher Horner got that admission out of the department through a FOIA request. 

> See the item in Tuesday's Washington Times about it

> See the pdf FOIA document

> Read about the FOIA request on GlobalWarming.org

Second, CEI has a new website and letter-writing campaign for grassroots activists: FreedomAction.org.  As an initial campaign, we have a letter campaign on the EPA/globalwarming whistleblower scandal.  Activists can write their own letter and/or choose a list of specific action items, such as urging the EPA to allow the public to submit comments on the global warming report the agency tried to suppress.  In light of this week's FOIA news and the hundreds of billions at stake, the letter writing campaign seems more timely than ever.
