“Eyes Cannot Trespass”
November 18, 2013 By: Kelly Diamond, Publisher The justifications for all the spying as well as all the secrecy concerning their tactics and even their budgets have become tired and feeble.

The Erosion of Hope
By: Kelly Diamond, Publisher The deterioration of our society is directly attributable to the very social construct people rely on for order and leadership.
