The Dark Side of Dairy
Milk - The Wrong Stuff Cows produce milk to feed their babies — just like humans. It flows for the best part of a year and then stops. More milk requires more babies. That’s the reality of dairy farming — the visible, obvious side of the industry. But there is another, cruel, much darker side to dairy which few see much and even fewer know about.

McCain’s Emotional Instability
John McCain assaulted Jeannette Jenkins, cousin of an American missing in South Vietnam since May of 1965, by backhanding her against the wall. He then threatened a wheelchair-bound mother by raising his left arm as if to strike her before coming to his senses. He then pushed her wheelchair out of the way and abruptly continued down the hall.
The two speakers are Eleanor Apodaca, sister of a Vietnam War MIA, and Carol Hrdlicka, wife of a USAF pilot shot down in 1965. Photos demonstrate that Hrdlicka’s husband was held in CAPTIVITY, yet he never returned after the war. She details her long experience with John McCain’s betrayal of trust.
To view McCain’s rude and antagonistic attack against Delores Alfond, Chairperson of the National Alliance of Families for the Return of America’s Missing, at the Senate Select Committee for POW/MIA Affairs in November 1992 please see the YouTube link below.

Make a Difference on World AIDS Day
The Clinton Foundation’s (clintonfoundation.org) work is built on President Clinton’s belief that we all have the unprecedented ability to help people. In 2002, President Clinton established the Clinton HIV/AIDS Initiative to work with governments to make HIV/AIDS care and treatment more accessible in the developing world. Today, more than 70 countries have access to affordable drugs and diagnostics through CHAIs agreements, and the annual cost of life-saving pediatric medicines has dropped 90% from $567 to $60 per year. On this World AIDS Day, support the Clinton Foundations work to ensure that everyone with HIV/AIDS has access to the lifesaving care and treatment they need.

Help Cure Patrick Swayze & Connie Loughman
Video made by: http://www.CureConnieAndPatrick.com
Presentation by the Loughman family of Indianapolis, IN. Connie Loughman, loving wife and mother of three daughters, is battling pancreatic cancer, the same disease that Hollywood legend, Patrick Swayze, recently announced he has.
Pancreatic cancer is one of the most deadly forms of cancer. 90% of patients die within 1-year of being diagnosed. Over 95% of patients die within 5-years of being diagnosed.
The good news is that there is a revolutionary new treatment called TNFerade by GenVec, Inc. which is in clinical trials and has already cured patients and saved lives.
The FDA allows persons with terminal illnesses for which there is no effective treatment protocol (a universe which includes pancreatic cancer patients) to obtain access to drugs in clinical trials - outside of the trial.
It’s called expanded access/compassionate use.
The problem: GenVec, Inc. has denied requests by people with pancreatic cancer to receive the drug outside of the current PACT clinical trial - even those who are willing to pay for the costs of the treatment (such as the Loughman family).
Please go to http://www.CureConnieAndPatrick.com and ask GenVec, Inc. to grant compassionate use/expanded access of TNFerade to pancreatic cancer patients such as Connie Loughman and Patrick Swayze.
