THIS IS HOW YOU FIX CONGRESS! - Warren Buffet

How can we as Americans who love our country get these changes made to save this country. Start with passing this on to everyone you know.

Warren Buffet is asking each visitor to this information to forward a link to this page to a minimum of
twenty people on their address list; in turn ask each of those to do likewise.

In the days to come, most people in The United States of America will have the message.
This is one idea that really should be passed around.



*Congressional Reform Act of 2012*

1. No Tenure / No Pension.
A Congressman/woman
collects a salary while in office
and receives no pay when
they're out of office.

2. Congress (past, present & future)
participates in Social Security. All funds in the
Congressional retirement fund move to the
Social Security system immediately.
All future funds flow into the
Social Security system, and Congress
participates with the American people. It
may not be used for any other purpose.

3. Congress can purchase their own retirement plan,
just as all Americans do.

4. Congress will no longer vote themselves a pay raise.
Congressional pay will
rise by the lower of CPI or 3%.

5. Congress loses their current health care system 
and participates in the same health care system as the American people.

6. Congress must equally abide by all laws
they impose on the American people.

7. All contracts with past and present Congressmen/women are void effective 12/31/12. 
The American
people did not make this contract with
Congressmen/women.
Congressmen/women made all
these contracts for themselves. Serving in
Congress is an honor, not a career.
The Founding Fathers envisioned
citizen legislators, so ours should
serve their term(s), then go home and
back to work.

If each person contacts a minimum
of twenty people then it will
only take three days for
most people (in the U.S. )
to receive the message.

Don't you think it's time?


THIS IS HOW YOU FIX CONGRESS!


Dog Saves Baby Who Stopped Breathing

Portland, CT — A faithful rescue dog is a hero for saving the life of a newborn baby who unbeknownst to her parents had stopped breathing.

The Brousseau family adopted Duke, the life-saving mixed breed canine, about six years ago. Last Sunday night, according to WFSB Hartford, Duke jumped on the Brousseaus’ bed and was jumping up and down and shaking so “uncontrollably” that he woke up Jenna Brousseau and her husband.

Since their family dog was always “insanely obedient,” the couple knew something was wrong in the house and Duke — through his bizarre behavior – was trying to alert the Brousseaus to that. And they were right: “When they went into their 9-week-old daughter Harper’s room, she was not breathing.”

The parents called 911, and paramedics quickly responded to the residence and revived Harper. She was later treated at a local hospital and apparently is back home and doing fine now.

According to Lifewithdogs.tv, “Jenna Brousseau believes that Duke understands what they did for him when they rescued him and truly wanted to return the favor.”

The Brosseaus hope that sharing this story of how Duke saved their baby daughter Harper will encourage other families to adopt a homeless dog from a shelter. October is Adopt-a-Shelter Dog month.

UPDATE: Body Found On Pierce Island Related To Lizzi Marriott Disappearance



DOVER, N.H. (CBS/AP) — A crime scene on Pierce Island has become the latest focus in the search for a missing UNH studentand Westboro resident.

Elizabeth “Lizzi” Marriott has been missing since last Tuesday, and the search for her has led police and FBI to Pierce Island.

While a heavy police presence and a large area of Prescott Park being taped off indicates the significance of the scene, police have made no statement as to the relation of Pierce Island to Marriott’s disappearance.

That silence has been troubling for family members, who showed up at the scene looking for answers.

“I just want to get answers for my family and do anything I can to help bring her home safely,” Marriott’s aunt, Rebecca Tyning, said.

Searchers have been combing seacoast communities after Marriott disappeared after making plans to visit friends earlier this week.

Senior Assistant Attorney General Jane Young said investigators searched for Elizabeth “Lizzi” Marriott “from the sea, land and sky” and continued to hold out hope of finding her alive.

Young said a bulletin was broadcast to police nationwide with Marriott’s description and that of the car she was driving — a tan 2001 Mazda Tribute. The family is offering a $10,000 reward for information leading to her safe return.

“At this point I would stress this is a missing person investigation,” Young said, adding that the legion of FBI agents and state and local investigators “does not mean that we think something nefarious has happened to Lizzi.”

“We are not losing hope in this case,” Young said.

Crime scene at Dover apartment building
May be connected to missing UNH student

DOVER, N.H. —
Police were seen entering an apartment building in Dover late Friday night and a Dumpster in the parking lot was taped off with crime scene tape.

The building is on Mill Street, right along the edge of the Piscatiqua River.

The apartment is believed to be where Lizzi Marriott was headed late Tuesday night to visit a friend. She has not been heard from since and police, family and friends have launched a massive search effort.

Police would not say if the activity Friday night was related to the Marriott disappearance, but did refer all questions to the investigator with the state Attorney General's Office, which is handling her case.

This police activity all took place while investigators swarmed Peirce Island in Portsmouth Friday where they told News 9 it was a recovery effort and they expected to find a body. Again, police would not say if that scene was related to the Marriott case, but most of the investigators involved in that case were at Peirce Island, along with one of Marriott's aunts.

Elizabeth Marriott: Police eye second arrest in case of N.H. student, report says

Officials say a second person may be arrested in connection with the case of 19-year-old Elizabeth Marriott, a University of New Hampshire student believed to have been killed a week ago.

Police are investigating claims that Marriott may have suffered a suffocation death during a sexual encounter with 29-year-old Seth Mazzaglia and another woman, CBS Boston reports.

Marriott was last seen on Oct. 9 after attending an evening class in Dover. Mazzaglia was charged Saturday with second-degree murder. He is accused of killing Marriott in his apartment that night.

A law enforcement official who spoke under condition of anonymity on Tuesday said that additional arrests should be expected, the Portsmouth Herald reported.

But Associate Attorney General Jane Young said Wednesday that authorities do not have enough evidence to charge a second person in connection with Marriott's death, according to the Herald.

"We bring a charge when there's evidence," Young said. "What I maintain in this case, is if the evidence brings us to the fact that another person was or other persons were involved then other charges would be brought."

Marriott's body has not been found, but authorities have been searching the waters around Peirce Island in nearby Portsmouth in hopes of finding her.

The family is offering a $10,000 reward for information.



Source did not believe police had any one person in particular they were focused on and did not rule out that Marriott may have been involved in an accident.

"We're not ruling out that she was an inexperienced driver and may have just driven off the side of the road. It's quite a distance. And we're trying to coordinate a search," he said.

"Police are trying to gather any information they can from her computer, her laptop and phones. They want to know who she was communicating with and see her last messages," said Anthony Hanna, Marriott's uncle with whom she lived in Chester, N.H.

An army of volunteers are fanning out today around Dover, N.H., posting missing person fliers and searching for signs of 19-year-old Elizabeth "Lizzi" Marriott.

Volunteers plan to distribute 2,500 fliers today alone, according to family members.

Investigators from the state Attorney General's Office, FBI, and Fish and Game have joined state and local police in the hunt for 19-year-old Elizabeth "Lizzi" Marriott, a sophomore and marine biology major who planned to visit a friend in Dover after classes Tuesday night but never showed up.

"We have no answers, a lot of questions and a lot of hope," her father, Bob Marriott, said from a room next to the police department where volunteers and others were organizing teams of searchers who spent Friday looking for clues along the sides of roads and other spots around the UNH campus and in nearby Dover.

Investigators pinged her cell phone, which indicated a signal around 9:30 p.m. in the Dover area. Another ping indicated that she was somewhere between Dover and Durham around 10:10 p.m., possibly in the area of Wentworth-Douglass Hospital in Dover, according to another aunt, Becky Tyning of Beverly, Mass.

Marriott's cousin, Tommy Hanna, 17, said she lived upstairs of his parents' home and while he heard her going to bed Monday night, he didn't see her. He said he left around 5 a.m. Tuesday before she awoke and that he hasn't heard from her.

“She’s a new driver. She didn’t get her license until she was 18 just a week before she started college. She’s newer to New Hampshire. She’s only been here a year. She’s only gone to UNH for this past month,” said Marriott’s aunt, Becky Hannah. “She’s damn smart and she’s clever, but I don’t know if her street smarts are that great and we really need everybody to help us.”






Original Story:

DURHAM — Police throughout the region are searching for a University of New Hampshire student who hasn't been heard from since leaving a class last Tuesday night.


Elizabeth Marriott, 19, a commuter student at the University of New Hampshire, attended a class on Tuesday and was last seen at 9 p.m., police said.


Chester Police Officer Nick McLellan said Elizabeth Marriott is a University of New Hampshire student who lives at home in Chester with her parents.


The UNH Police Department is assisting the Chester Police Department and also the Westborough, Mass. Police Department in the search.

She has not made contact with anyone since sending a text message to a friend just before 9 p.m. on Tuesday night after a class at the university.



Elizabeth Marriott, who goes by “Lizzie,” is a marine biology major and a sophomore at UNH. Family said between classes, her volunteer work at the New England Aquarium and her job at Target, she has little time to socialize. Marriott’s family is confused and concerned. They said this is completely out of character.


A family member tells investigators Marriott had indicated she was thinking about going to Portsmouth to see friends after class.


Students said they have not received an e-mail from the school notifying them of the incident.


McLellan said she did not return home that night, did not show up for her job at the Target store in Greenland on Wednesday, and has not been to any of her classes in the last two days.


On Thursday, police put out an alert for Marriott and her vehicle, a 2001 tan Mazda Tribute with the license plate 3045397. Marriott is 5-foot-5, weighs about 130 pounds and has blonde hair and blue eyes. Police did not have a description of what she was last seen wearing.
