Danish survey finds neighbours can learn to love wind turbines
http://www.ewea.org/blog/2012/12/danes-shows-neighbours-can-learn-to-lov...

A new Danish survey on people living close to wind turbines shows that four out of five people feel there are no downsides to the experience – and 23 % of those surveyed became more positive towards the turbines within one year of installation. In addition, 59% of respondents answered “neither positive nor negative” to the question of whether their attitude changed over one year of living with the turbines in their midst.

Contrary to Glenn Beck preppers the world will not end tomorrow. Stay calm, think rational, be alert, watch out for gun toting believers!

Fox News chief Roger Ailes has issued a new directive to his staff: He wants the faces associated with the election off the air — for now. For Karl Rove and Dick Morris — a pair of pundits perhaps most closely aligned with Fox’s anti-Obama campaign

Go after the entitlements Mr. President! Walmart's six family aires own more wealth than the bottom 40% of America. Walmart is the largest receipt of government welfare. Walmart's everyday low wages cost U.S. taxpayers $2.6 billion annually in government social services for its poverty employees. Walmart, biggest corporate welfare queen in America.

Rupert Murdoch — the guy who’s under investigation in England for phone hacking, influence peddling and bribery — wants to get his mitts on the Los Angeles Times and the Chicago Tribune.. These are the major papers in the nation's second- and third-largest cities (where, incidentally, Murdoch already owns TV stations).

Federal Communications Commission Chairman Julius Genachowski is trying to change the agency’s ownership rules to pave the way for Murdoch to get exactly what he wants. Worse, Genachowski and Murdoch are keeping this all very hush-hush, hoping you won't notice.

Clear Channel, Owner of Toledo’s WSPD owes billions to Bain Capital
http://www.toledoblade.com/Economy/2012/11/18/Clear-Channel-Owner-of-Tol...

The silly Romney ads running on WSPD and local television will hurt his campaign. Specifically the ads about the local auto industry are insulting and shallow- thinking autoworkers are not up to speed on this subject. Auto workers and their families know the score when it comes to Mitt Romney's Let Detroit go Bankrupt letter Published: November 18, 2008 http://www.nytimes.com/2008/11/19/opinion/19romney.html . We get that this man represents his wealthy donors and not Midwest workers and the small businesses they support.
