The white boy will kill us all of in short order if we don&#039;t get up for our knees.

Latest figures show the amount of toxic chemicals released on Guam increased in 2010 compared with the previous year.

The United States Environmental Protection Agency’s Toxics Release Inventory collates data on hundreds of toxic chemicals emitted by various industries.

According to the report, facilities on Guam released more than double the 2009 amount of toxic chemicals in 2010, at just under 221,000 kilograms.

The agency’s Dean Higuchi says while the report is a valuable resource for communities and emergency responders, it doesn’t evaluate risks to human health.

“Neither is it a way to determine whether or not a facility is technically in compliance or not. I would say all of these facilities would be in compliance but they’re having to report their chemical releases.”

Dean Higuchi says the top contributor, Tristar Terminal Guam, is revising its figure.

Tristar says an inputting error resulted in an inflated figure and it is aiming to have correct data to the EPA by the end of next week.
=====================
We really need to get these creatures off our island.

		<description><![CDATA[Michelle the men no Guam and I don&#039;t just mean the natives are so abominable.
=====================

Guam&#039;s high rate of reported rapes could climb even higher in the coming years because of a widened definition of the crime recently adopted by FBI statisticians.

Rape statistics will be expanded to include statutory rape, rape of men and just about any other crime that involves sexual penetration, according to a press release from the U.S. Department of Justice.

Previously, although these crimes could still be charged as rape, crime statistics -- kept both nationwide and in Guam -- would only include the forcible rape of a woman. The FBI compiles the statistics, which are recorded by police around the country.

This archaic definition was established in 1927, the press release states.

&quot;These long overdue updates to the definition of rape will help ensure justice for those whose lives have been devastated by sexual violence and reflect the Department of Justice&#039;s commitment to standing with rape victims,&quot; U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder stated in a press release. 

&quot;This new, more inclusive definition will provide us with a more accurate understanding of the scope and volume of these crimes.&quot;

Guam Police Department spokesman Office A.J. Balajadia has conformed local police will adopt whatever definition was provided by the FBI. The Unified Crime Reports collected by local police are intended to feed into FBI statistics, Balajadia said.

Even under narrow, archaic definition, there were nearly three times as many rapes reported on Guam than in an average American town of the same size, according to the crime reports. About 40 percent of those rape reports never lead to an arrest.

According to a five-year average compiled from Census data, about 30 rapes are reported for each year for every 100,000 residents in the United States. 

However, for the same number of Guam residents, about 88 rapes are reported to local police each year, according to a 2009 Guam Police Department Unified Crime Report.

GPD reports show there were 722 rapes reported to local police between 2005 and 2009, more reports of rape per capita than in any state or territory in the rest of America.

But there were plenty of reports those statistics overlooked.

For example, under the FBI&#039;s old definition of rape, local statisticians wouldn&#039;t include a report of two prison inmates who allegedly raped another inmate.
================
What are we women to do?
