Immunization H1N1 Vaccine Update | Ashland High School
Commentary:
Be aware the H1N1 swine flu is being touted by government and health agencies worldwide as the next pandemic and are selling millions of vaccines. In our opinion the fear of pandemic is being intentionally created without considering the side effects and possible health consequences of this and other vaccines which remain controversial at best.
The Whole Foods Alternative to ObamaCare | Wall Street Journal
With a projected $1.8 trillion deficit for 2009, several trillions more in deficits projected over the next decade, and with both Medicare and Social Security entitlement spending about to ratchet up several
notches over the next 15 years as Baby Boomers become eligible for
both, we are rapidly running out of other people's money. These
deficits are simply not sustainable. They are either going to result in
unprecedented new taxes and inflation, or they will bankrupt us.
City to look at helping builders | Daily Tidings
With the recession putting a damper on construction, the Ashland City Council will consider whether to give 18-month extensions to all development approvals in town. That
could help keep approvals on projects from expiring before projects can
be built. The projects have already gone through the regular planning
process.

Media Cover-up | WanttoKnow
The riveting excerpts below are from the revealing accounts of 20 award-winning journalists in the highly acclaimed book Into the Buzzsaw. These courageous writers were prevented by corporate media ownership from reporting major news stories. Some were even fired or laid off. They have won numerous awards, including several Emmys and a Pulitzer. Join in building a better world by helping to spread this news across the land.Obama issues executive order exempting INTERPOL from the restraints of the Constitution and American law while operating in the U.S. | LiveLeak.com
During his presidency, Ronald Reagan granted the global police agency Interpol the status of diplomatic personnel in order to engage more constructively on international law enforcement. In Executive Order 12425, Reagan made two exceptions to that status. The first had to do with taxation, but the second was to make sure that Interpol had the same accountability for its actions as American law enforcement — namely, they had to produce records when demanded by courts and could not have immunity for their actions.US military deaths in Iraq war at 4,370 | Yahoo!
