    • Pentagon may drop mental health question

      Posted by theangryindian from Yahoo News!

      WASHINGTON - U.S. troops would no longer be asked to reveal previous mental health treatment when applying for security clearances under a proposal being considered by the Pentagon. ADVERTISEMENT The idea stems from the finding that service members avoid needed counseling because they believe that getting it — and acknowledging it — could cost them their clearance as well as do other harm to their careers, The Associated Press has learned. "This is just one of several items under rev

      Farmington Daily Times - Lots of socks: Navajo First Lady accepts Rotary Club donation

      Posted by theangryindian

      FARMINGTON — Yellow socks, purple socks, black socks — 1,407 pairs to be exact, spilled from an array of boxes at the San Juan Rotary Club meeting Tuesday. Navajo Nation First Lady Vikki Shirley accepted the donation of socks in every shade, size and color from the Rotary Club.

"We're going to give them out to c

      Al-Huwaider, Iraq – The sheikh’s long elegant fingers moved liked birds as he spoke with the American commander from Texas. In the modest office of the representative of the most revered Shiite cleric in Iraq, religious authority met military power – and agreed on one thing. “The enemy didn’t come from outer space or the moon. He is between us, from here,” Sheikh Ahmed Hamid al-Tamimi told Colonel David Sutherland. Tamimi, the Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani’s representative in Diya

      Posted by theangryindian from Truth Out

      Khartoum supplies information to the CIA on insurgents in Iraq. Washington - Sudan has secretly worked with the CIA to spy on the insurgency in Iraq - an example of how the United States has continued to cooperate with the Sudanese regime even while condemning its role in the killing of tens of thousands of civilians in Darfur.

      BBC hostage in Gaza 'treated very well'

      Posted by theangryindian from Turkish Press

      Palestinian militants released on Friday the first video of BBC reporter Alan Johnston since he was kidnapped 80 days ago, in which the journalist said he was in good health and being well treated. "First of all, my captors have treated me very well. They've fed me well, there's been no violence towards me at all and I'm in good health," said a pale Johnston, wearing a red sweatshirt and seated before a black backdrop. There was no indication as to when the relatively sophisticated Interne

    Judge: Saudi threats apparently 'rolled over' British government

    I also listen to Malloy and he does not report on nearly as much alternative news as we do here or I do on my own Indigenist newsblog. Raw Story and Common Dreams seems to be his main alt-news sources. I’m not sure how much he knows about portals like ours. Drop him a line, maybe he’ll give us a look-see.

    Pretty amazing story. I heard about this on Mike Malloy last night.

    He always complains about the lack of a free press – but hey, we’re here sharing stories like this!

    Black Oil Spill in Kerch Strait

    I think this spill should have received far more attention here in the US than it did. What happened in San Francisco around the same time pales in comparison to this mess.

    This is a shame, Russia should be a more dedicated hosting to its environment. Good post, keep up the good work.
