Baltimore officials: No immediate decision in Gray caseby By AMANDA LEE MYERS and DAVID DISHNEAU
BALTIMORE (AP) -- Having weathered two all-night curfews with no major disturbances, Baltimore officials are now trying to manage growing expectations they will immediately decide whether to prosecute six police officers involved in the arrest of a black man who later died of injuries he apparently received while in custody....
US Lowers Fluoride Levels In Drinking Water For First Time in 50 Years by The European Union Times
The United States government has finally lowered fluoride levels in drinking water for the first time in 50 years following research by Harvard and other institutions that high exposure to fluoride can lower your IQ and wreak havoc on your body.
It was around 3 years ago, after all, that the government actually backed the historic study by Harvard scientists on the subject of fluoride’s devastating effects on cognitive ability. As I detailed in July of 2012, authors published their conclusion online in the July 20th edition of the prominent journal Environmental Health Perspectives: a federal government medical journal stemming from the United States National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences.
In the research by Harvard, it is made even more explicitly clear just how toxic fluoride can be to the body. In a written statement, researchers state:
“The children in high fluoride areas had significantly lower IQ than those who lived in low fluoride areas.”
Three years later, and we’re now seeing action by the government. As The Guardian reports:
“The government is lowering the recommended amount of fluoride added to drinking water for the first time in more than 50 years…. Since 1962, the government has been advising water systems to add fluoride to a level of 0.7 parts per million for warmer climates, where people drink more water, to 1.2 parts per million in cooler areas. The new standard is 0.7 everywhere.”
While lower, these levels are still concerning. But with a possible ban on the horizon for Monsanto’s cancer-linked herbicides and top corporations being forced to remove dangerous additives from their products, perhaps fluoride may be next.

National Guard in Baltimore: Armored vehicles, military gearby The European Union Times
Riots in Baltimore, Maryland have largely subsided since protests there, in the wake of Freddie Gray’s death, turned violent earlier this week, albeit in the shadows of a massive police presence amplified by the activation of the National Guard.
A week-long nightly curfew went into effect in Baltimore on Tuesday evening, and more 3,000 police officers were on the scene thanks to a collaborative effort between law enforcement from Maryland, New Jersey and Washington, DC, as well as the National Guard.
Clad in riot gear, flanks of police marched through sections of Baltimore late Tuesday evening to clear the city streets pursuant to the curfew.
Efforts to enforce the curfew proved largely successful, and much of the city was comparatively quiet during early Wednesday morning, a sharp contrast to the riots and looting on Monday night after Freddie Gray’s funeral.
Gray, 25, died earlier this month, a week after he suffered critical injuries while in the custody of the Baltimore Police Department. Demonstrations, mostly peaceful, have been waged across the region since Gray’s arrest on April 12, and have become amplified following his death. Thousands attended Gray’s funeral on Monday and went on a peaceful protest after. It turned violent later in the day, prompting Republican Gov. Larry Hogan to activate the National Guard to restore order.
“People have the right to protest and express their frustration, but Baltimore City families deserve peace and safety in their communities and these acts of violence and destruction of property cannot and will not be tolerated,” Hogan said.
On Wednesday, Baltimore Police Capt. Eric Kowalczyk said that the city will be assessing the need to keep the curfew into effect “day by day, hour by hour.”

Moody’s downgrades Greece credit rating over debt uncertaintyby The European Union Times
Moody’s rating agency downgrades Greece’s debt to junk.
Moody’s rating agency has downgraded Greece’s credit rating further into junk territory over growing uncertainty about the country’s ability to make its debt payments.
On Thursday, Moody’s slashed Athens’ rating to Caa2 from Caa1 and assigned it a “negative” outlook.
The rating is just two steps away from the level signaling that a default is imminent.
The rating agency said that talks between the debt-ridden country and its international lenders, including the International Monetary Fund (IMF), show “no immediate prospect of agreement being reached on a new financing package.”
The rating reflects the agency’s overview of the economic, financial, and political risks in the country.
To meet the challenges caused by its debt, “Greece will need higher medium-term growth and political resolve,” Moody’s said.
“Recent events make both doubtful, raising further concerns over Greece’s ability to sustain financial support from official creditors over the coming years,” the agency said.
Moody’s said that the outcome of the talks would be determined primarily on a political level between the sides.
Debt-ridden Greece is in talks with the European Union (EU), the IMF and the European Central Bank (ECB) to receive the last tranche of its bailout – worth EUR 7.2 billion (USD 7.8 billion) – to help Athens avoid default and a possible exit from the European Union (EU).
The government of Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras, whose leftist Syriza Party stormed to victory in January 25 elections, has tried to renegotiate the terms of the country’s bailout, which Athens had received in return for imposing harsh austerity measures.
Athens received two bailouts in 2010 and 2012 worth a total of EUR 240 billion (USD 272 billion) from the troika of international lenders following Greece’s 2009 economic crisis.

JP Morgan prepares for global war, Unprecedented silver accumulation by The European Union Times
Silver stockpile of the largest US bank and major provider of financial services JPMorgan Chase has increased drastically for the last three years. In 2012 the amount of physical silver was at 5 million ounces, while for the current year it increased more than tenfold and accounts for 55 million.
Silver has always been regarded as a great investment tool. But the fact that it is estimated at that low as $15.66 an ounce implies that it is accumulated for the possible financial turmoil. Only in this case the stockpile can be paid off.
It can be seen in the letter of JPMorgan Chase chairman and CEO Jamie Dimon in his letter to shareholders. As he stated, “Some things never change – there will be another crisis, and its impact will be felt by the financial market.
The trigger to the next crisis will not be the same as the trigger to the last one – but there will be another crisis. Triggering events could be geopolitical (the 1973 Middle East crisis), a recession where the Fed rapidly increases interest rates (the 1980-1982 recession), a commodities price collapse (oil in the late 1980s), the commercial real estate crisis (in the early 1990s), the Asian crisis (in 1997), so-called “bubbles” (the 2000 Internet bubble and the 2008 mortgage/housing bubble), etc. While the past crises had different roots (you could spend a lot of time arguing the degree to which geopolitical, economic or purely financial factors caused each crisis), they generally had a strong effect across the financial markets.”
The preference to silver instead of gold can be directly explained with the current low price it has.
For the last two weeks, JP Morgan Chase has accumulated more than eight million ounces of physical silver.
In addition to this, JP Morgan Chase restricted the use of cash for selected markets and went so far as restricted its clients from using cash for credit cards payments, mortgages, equity lines and auto loans. There will also be no ability to store the cash in its safe deposit boxes.
The case tips at the anticipation of a new great economic crisis.

IDF soldiers assault press in West Bankby The European Union Times
A video has emerged showing Israeli forces assaulting photojournalists near the West Bank town of Nabi Saleh. Despite being clearly marked as members of the press, the soldiers push the photographers to the ground and proceed to hit them.
One of the troops also throws a stone at a journalist.
The assault begins with soldiers shouting “Get out of here!”
One of the soldiers is then seen pushing one of the photographers to the ground with his helmet. Another soldier knocks the other photographer to the ground and then picks up a stone and hurls it at him.
The attack happened on Friday. Since then the Israeli army has stated that the area was a closed military zone and that dozens of Palestinian protesters gathered there and hurled stones at IDF soldiers prior to the assault of journalists.
However, an IDF spokesman later told Haaretz that “the behavior seen in the video is reprehensible and isn’t in line with the guidelines issued by the commanders in the region.”
“The IDF guidelines allow for free press coverage in the territory under control of the Central Command in general, and specifically during demonstrations,” he added.
The matter will be looked into shortly, the spokesman concluded.
It’s by no means the first time that the IDF has targeted journalists and assaulted them.
Last July, at least seven Palestinian journalists and media workers were killed in during the assault on Gaza and IDF forces directly hit at least four media offices.
During the November 2012 conflict, at least four Israeli attacks on media workers and facilities in Gaza were reported. In those attacks, two Palestinian cameramen were killed and at least 10 other media employees wounded.

MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russia looks likely to extend a ban on Western food imports beyond an Aug. 7 deadline, with a lack of incentive to lift its embargo due to the prospect of extended European sanctions.
Indonesia executed eight people Wednesday for drug smuggling, but one of them, a paranoid schizophrenic who also suffered from bipolar disorder, wasn’t aware he was about to be killed.
The priest who had been ministering to Rodrigo Gularte said the Brazilian inmate was “lost because he’s a schizophrenic,” the Guardian reports.
“He was hearing voices all the time,” Father Charlie Burrows said. “I talked to him for about an hour and a half, trying to prepare him for the execution. I said to him, ‘I’m 72 years old, I’ll be heading to heaven in the near future, so you find out where my house is and prepare a garden for me.’
But when Gularte was taken from his cell and put in chains, Burrows said he asked, “Am I being executed?”
Burrows explained, “I said, ‘Yes, I thought I explained that you.’ He didn’t get excited – he’s a quiet sort of a guy – but he said, ‘This is not right.’
Eight people were executed by a firing squad in Indonesia Wednesday for smuggling drugs into the country. One other was granted a stay of execution while her case is investigated further.
ANKARA (Reuters) - Turkish leader Tayyip Erdogan said on Thursday the strong executive presidency he seeks would bear no resemblance to Asian or African dictatorships but would be "like a bee... taking something from every flower" to create a uniquely Turkish honey.
