CDC: Kids may get up to 4 flu shots in the fall -- School children who have never had a flu shot may need to get vaccinated four times in the fall - twice for seasonal flu, twice for pandemic swine flu - officials at the CDC told health professionals on Wednesday.

Another example of censorship of US mainstream media - Cynthia McKinney detention in Israel -- Cynthia McKinney and 20 other humanitarians on the ship "Spirit of Humanity" were stopped in International waters Monday by the Israeli Navy. This is a pretty big deal. An aid ship captured by the armed forces of another country in International waters is an act of piracy...I think. At least it was when Somali pirates captured an American ship recently. It appears that the U.S. Mainstream media is going to ignore this story even though Cynthia McKinney was once a Congresswoman from Georgia and a Presidential candidate. How odd.

Test 184-electromagnetic pulse -- This is a new page for 2009 on the Soviet nuclear EMP tests in 1962.
Plantagon: Geodesic Dome Farm of the Future -- A Swedish-American company called Plantagon has conceived of an incredible solution to many moving to the cities: a massive urban greenhouse contained within a geodesic dome.

The licensing of tyranny in dog ownership -- To Legislate Animals and Control or Not to Legislate that is the Question.
California Supreme court admits, ignores breathalyzer flaws -- The California Supreme Court last Thursday entered a ruling allowing motorists accused of driving under the influence of alcohol (DUI) to question the reliability of the breathalyzer machinery used to secure convictions.
