Stories or narratives have been shared in every culture as a means of entertainment, education, cultural preservation and instilling moral values.

This graphic indicates how storytelling affects the recipients.

Some warn that Venezuela, Argentina, and Brazil's political money strength has been using Central Banks. Big money wants to control South America, and they are not going to let that happen.

Ozone season is here once again, and it presents a health hazard to all New Yorkers. Ground level ozone is a harmful pollutant and the main ingredient of “smog”. It forms on hot, sunny days when pollution reacts with sunlight. Ground level ozone can be especially bad for sensitive groups: children, elderly, and those with heart or lung problems. Plants are also at risk for damage from ozone, both directly and indirectly.

There are several things you can do to help reduce ground-level ozone:
