 Your Right to Choose in Vermont

This is from Vermont Microbiologist and Homeopath Jennifer R. Stella, who is testifying at the State House on behalf of Vermont parents who exercise our right to vaccine exemptions for our children.  This is about our right to choose. 

Vermont Senate Bill S.199 proposes to take away our choice.  Please contact your Reps and Senators in Montpelier, and make your voice heard.

Vermont has a well-established culture of tolerance towards difference in opinion and behavior. Lately, this...

This is a thought seed growing off into postmodernism. Modernity and Marx brought us intellectualism from the mechanistic material point of view. While the news services are just now picking up on certain commodity situations, I've known by simple reading of media about food farming and Good Baloney Bulls. The dialectic of modernity is tracable in Astrology, for masonic sakes, to the Age of Picses, which we are trans muting from, into the Astrological sign of Aquarius. Does that mean anything? To me it would be like looking at the finest Cartier watch. What in reality is a Universe with so many more complications of activity than we can even now begin to touch upon before our space ships won't work due to using all the oil fighting...

Fukushima and Its Impact Upon the Westinghouse-Toshiba Designed AP1000 Atomic Power Plant from Fairewinds Associates on Vimeo.

Fairewinds was retained by the AP1000 Oversight Group to evaluate the AP1000 design for flaws that are now evident as a result of the nuclear accidents at Fukushima. The NRC’s refusal to thoroughly examine these flaws is reminiscent of the Atomic Energy...

Lately I've been seeing some people react to the recent announcement of Usama's death with lament, from a pacifist perspective. Posting MLK, Gandhi, or Jesus quotes and bemoaning the loss of even one human life. (I'll reiterate that I thought he was already dead, but that's beside the point.)

I understand where they're coming from, really. Even with all the assumptions of his guilt and his still being alive, I'm not a fan of hunting people down for purposes of vengeance. A family member of mine was murdered, and frankly, I don't really want to perpetrator to get caught. I just want to him abandon the gang lifestyle, maybe find some kind of helpful religion or something and get on a good path in his life, trying to atone for his...

Irene blew through Vermont just over one week ago.

Thanks to all of you who have contacted us @VermontCommons from all over, asking how we in Vermont are doing, and asking for news.

We shipped the new fall issue off to press just as Irene hit, and have been focused on Irene ever since.

I've sent many of you who have been asking to Anne Galloway's VermontDigger - she and her crew are doing a fine job of aggregating press releases, official government response documents, and original reporting there.

Our Mad River Valley, where Vermont Commons is based, got walloped by Irene.

This past week, Gaelan Brown (our VC business manager...

This aritlce is by Marc Estrin. It questions how to proceed in the 9/11 Truth movement given the myth that has covered the collective consciousness of Americans. Maybe we can create our own myth with the millions around the world who try to do the same.  See www.9-11cc.org for the next wave.  JH

Floodplain Diagram

Hurricane Irene, who was down graded to a Tropical Storm, embraced Vermont on Sunday the 28th of August. The rain swelled the rivers over their banks; flooding downtowns, stranding many with road closures, destroying bridges, disintegrating mountain roads and taking down power lines leaving many without power. The 100 year flood plain is something that isn't documented well enough nor heeded when it is.

In Permaculture, observation is your number one "tool" and water is a key element to watch throughout the season and especially in instances like the flooding of Irene. In a sustainable whole...

Our fair Green Mountain once and future republic took a trouncing yesterday by tropical storm Irene.

Here's a photo of downtown Moretown in central Vermont on Route 100B.

Thanks to Carl Etnier for posting useful post-Irene links here.

Good luck to all Vermonters cleaning up after Irene - "Freedom and Unity" takes on a new meaning as we clean up our communities, working together with one another.
