I speak at high schools on Veterans Day programs and I ask three questions of the collective students: 1. How many of you want to get shot at? Most usually nobody responds. 2. Who among you wants to get wounded? Nobody responds to that either. 3. Who wants to kill a human being?

Veterans for Common Sense and Veterans United for Truth Inc., brought the matter forward, representing their members and a class of all veterans similarly situated. http://salem-news.com/articles/may122011/veterans-courts-tk.php http://salem-news.com/articles/may122011/veterans-courts-tk.php Thu, 12 May 2011 05:38:00 PDT With what seemed like a stunning career ahead of her, the unquestionably stunning Pro Golfer Erica Blasberg, died suddenly last May.

This is rather standard history within this profession.

I warned about this three years ago when I wrote The Chickens Are Coming Home To Roost. Not to imply that our war hero veterans are “chicken” by any means but the Army is destroying a generation of this country's war heroes, many after they come home. These suicides et cetera are just the tip of the iceberg. The PTSD rate of these returning battle veterans is escalating in numbers and also in severity. Almost every returning combat veteran has PTSD. http://salem-news.com/articles/september142010/leveque-ptsd.php http://salem-news.com/articles/september142010/leveque-ptsd.php Tue, 14 Sep 2010 14:31:00 PDT The main problems that concern child obesity are cardiovascular and medical. Nonetheless, an even greater dilemma exists, cancer. According to a published study by Cell Magazine, overweight acts as a promoter of tumors in general and in the liver in particular.

If the networks and huge daily newspapers paid attention to what was really going on around them, they would be in for quite a shock. Americans are increasingly buying food that falls into the 'mad scientist' category; created in laboratories by essentially fooling nature. http://salem-news.com/articles/june082010/gmfood-radio.php http://salem-news.com/articles/june082010/gmfood-radio.php Tue, 08 Jun 2010 23:31:00 PDT The most important job in the world is being a mother. There is nothing more satisfying that raising a child, knowing that even though you’ve made mistakes, overall you did your best. You loved them, guided them and nurtured them into well adjusted adults. http://salem-news.com/articles/june072010/munchausen-mama-as.php http://salem-news.com/articles/june072010/munchausen-mama-as.php Mon, 07 Jun 2010 05:27:00 PDT Protesters in the Netherlands shut down a Monsanto seed plant by forming a blockade.
