Fiction account of the risks of ayahuasca
Since President Barack Obama took office in January, the U.S. economy has gone from bad to worst. Nationwide, home foreclosures continue to climb, consumer spending is down due to the credit crisis, more than 6 million Americans remain unemployed, and while paychecks are shrinking, inflation and gas prices are on the increase. The U.S. economy and capitalism is in a total mess.
Nearly all the excesses summarized under the terms turbo- or casino-capitalism are based on the ideology of shareholder value: the rule of financial markets over the real economy, the short-term and short-sightedness of shareholders and the waves of rationalizations.
When: Saturday May 23rd 7pm-12am

Portland OR) What: Speakers: Lauren Regan and Kristian Williams, music from Resist, Adelit@s, Coffin Ship and Silent Majority How much: $6-$100 sliding scale donation.

Cheney rescued by FBI street theater.
As the executive administration spews no more torture, the old
executive of the State begs to differ. In the mean while the FBI(?) entraps a group in terror plot.
The real reason behind Obama's reversal of a decision to release the torture photos has been almost completely ignored by the corporate media - the fact that the photos show both US and Iraqi soldiers raping teenage boys in front of their mothers.

"Cyclists hitting the road for Bike to Work Week will find their commutes safer, faster and more relaxing. So says the City of Vancouver, which has spent around $20 million on improvements to its 400 kilometres of bike routes over the past three years.Improvements include two new greenways designated for cyclists and pedestrians and five new bikeways.."
This year, nearly two thousand chimpanzees will be used for testing in laboratories across the United States. Thousands of animals will be left to starve on foreclosed farms and hundreds of malnourished horses will be abandoned on public lands because the cost of their care is too high. These are just a few examples of the types of abuse and neglect that animals face each day. Although many of these animals will never know kindness, affection or proper nutrition- for those who find their way to a sanctuary, there is hope. This talk highlights the inspiring stories of three Northwest no-kill sanctuaries that provide lifetime quality of life to abused, abandoned and neglected animals.
resident Obama's request for a "speedy" congressional vote on $92.4 billion more in supplemental war funds to pay for more troops, more drone bombing, and more carnage in Afghanistan, has inadvertently shown his values in practice: war over diplomacy, and wishful thinking over clear-eyed realism.
The magnificent crow. The large black bird that we see so commonly flying in the skies in the pacific northwest, and perching on the tall trees is our avian brother. And as feeling, living beings, we should have a caring and respectful relationship with them. The department of fish and wildlife, as a publicly funded organization that represents the citizens should make policies based on respect and caring for wild animals. However they are operating in an exploitative manner toward wildlife, a legacy that has been handed down from the 1850s, and should be modernized to an approach that is ecological and compassionate.

A despairing country elected a president who promised change. Americans arrived from every state to witness in bitter cold Obama's swearing in ceremony. The mall was packed in a way that it has never been for any other president.
The people's good will toward Obama and the expectations they had for him were sufficient for Obama to end the gratuitous wars and enact major reforms. But Obama has deserted the people for the interests. He is relying on his non-threatening demeanor and rhetoric to convince the people that change is underway. The change that we are witnessing is in Obama, not in policies. Obama is morphing into Dick Cheney.
The State has ended trapping at Bonneville dam for the year -- or so they say, anyway. Trapping and killing continue in Astoria, in a place that has become popular with tourists coming to view native wildlife. Most people are unaware that the government is killing the very animals that these tourists are bringing their children to see.
isn't it a little odd that we as americans can demand justice and fair trials with the international community, and at the same time when it comes for us as the leaders of the free world to offer new and fair trials for our own possible innocent american citizens in georgia & pennsylvania , we can somehow accept the easier route of allowing two possible innocent american citizens to be falsely executed ?
President Barack Obama has nominated a lawyer for the nation's largest toxic polluters to run the enforcement of the nation's environmental laws.
Barack Obama is lying about the Reliable Replacement Nuclear Warhead (RRW). He says that it's not in his budget. However, the RRW is in the $50 billion Pentagon "black budget," and this is Commander-in-Chief Obama's budget too.

"The old story promised stability based on enterprise but delivered chaos based on speculation. It preached transparency but created a world ruled by occult financial knowledge.. We need to recognize that natural laws will always overrule economic laws.."

Unfortunately, logic trumps stock liberal memes.
The domestic media seems to be falling all too easily into the atmosphere of celebration proclaimed by the Sinhalese side (and, yes, it is "the Sinhalese side," and not the "legitimate and rightful government") in the conflict.
"Guaranteeing the social infrastructure and social security for everyone should be central instead of guarantees for banks and corporations and socialization and democratization of the economy instead of nationalization!"
The past week has provided a definitive demonstration of the subservience of the Obama administration and the Democratic Party to the military-intelligence apparatus of American imperialism. Day by day, the White House and the Democratic-controlled Congress delivered decisions along the lines demanded by the Pentagon and CIA, in many instances directly repudiating the campaign promises made to win popular support during the 2008 election.
Tri-Met has proposed making cuts to 93 routes and eliminating fairless square. FIGHT THE CUTS! Let Tri-Met know we must strengthen our public transportation system rather than weaken it. These cuts and changes will disproportionately affect low income and people of color. Join the TRANSIT RIDERS UNION!
The People's Age is near but will have to be struggled for by focusing on the 'bottom-up' human rights approach which are the rights left out by the Global Elites at the UN in their discussions of economic and social rights over the past four years which resulted in the 'we are all in it together' approach presently being adopted by States.
When the reality of the economic crisis first made itself known, many who realized what was happening dubbed it "the greatest crisis since the Great Depression." This description was more than bombast; it was a sober analysis of the immensity of the economic problems in the country — problems that had been building up for years.
The mainstream media is now — for political reasons — in a constant clamor for the economy's elusive "rock bottom." This is so people will be more hopeful, less agitated, and more willing to let those who destroyed the economy continue running the country un-challenged. Every time a new economic indicator comes out that wasn't "as bad as expected," Wall Street cheers and politicians give their "we've turned the corner" speeches. Reality is thus turned on its head.
Conscientious Objector & Marine Corps veteran, Benji Lewis will be speaking about his decision to refuse a 3rd tour of duty in the Middle East.
How Many Kicks To The Head Does It Take to Arrest Rampant Police Violence?
May 18, 2009 "Information Clearing House" --- Anyone who has ever wasted good money on a clunker only to drop the transmission 15 minutes after leaving the car-lot, knows the feeling. It's like a swift-kick in the groin followed by weeks of fist-pounding rage. It's called buyer's remorse; "Gawd, I wish I hadn't bought that piece of dogshite!"
There are probably a lot of former-Obama supporters feeling that same agonizing sense despair now that President Rainbow has done an about-face on every campaign promise he made. So much for "truth in advertising", eh?
Molière's irreverent satire on the world of medicine - the questionable cures and costs - is a whirl of romantic triangles, double entendres and mistaken identities. Constance Congdon gives this Molière classic a double dose of devilishness sure to cure whatever ails you with a laugh.
"Here is the grand vision I suggest Americans can pursue: the right of all citizens to larger lives.

CAVEAT: Eleven percent of mass lesions in cancer patients are not metastases; mass lesions that can masquerade as brain metastasis include abscess (20%) and granuloma (less common and mostly associated with mycobacterial or fungal infection). The commonly observed deficits observed in CNS infection include weakness on one side of the body (hemiparesis), impaired speech production (dysphasia), visual field deficits (may or may not be present), and an inability to smoothly coordinate muscle movements, such as during walking (ataxia). Patients with a dioagnosis of primary or metastic brain tumor(s) associated with a CNS event should have a meticulous review of their history for possible iatrogenic causes.
I've been listening to the news about Sri Lanka and the Tamil Tigers. But what is going on? I don't trust NPR, but I came across this informative article by John Pilger which I found very helpful to understand what is happening.
