From the Associated Press Sunday December 27th, 2009
LANTANA, Fla. – It started with a cough, an autumn hack that refused to go away.
Then came the fevers. They bathed and chilled the skinny frame of Oswaldo Juarez, a 19-year-old Peruvian visiting to study English. His lungs clattered, his chest tightened and he ached with every gasp. During a wheezing fit at 4 a.m., Juarez felt a warm knot rise from his throat. He ran to the bathroom sink and spewed a mouthful of…

Having a seasonal flu shot, or even a case of ordinary flu, appears to "prime" an H1N1 vaccination and make it more effective, new research from Italy shows.
The results are a surprise, because seasonal flu shots alone give no protection…

For thousands of years astrologers have claimed that disasters are foretold in the movement of the planets.
Now a new study suggests they might be right.
Scientists have discovered that the faint gravitational tug of the sun and moon can…

Since I've been seeing posts here on 12.160Mhz that demonize Islam I thought it might be apropos to provide some factual data on precisely what the Koran says about Jesus and Christianity for those of you that aren't fully knowledgeable.
There is NO DIFFERENCE between Allah and God.
Here's what you didn't know.
Please read this if you believe that there's a difference and that it's appropriate to say, "not Allah." It isn't.
An Open…

As these sell-outs argue over which of their money-stealing schemes will fly without provoking a revolution among the sheep, the illegal wars that they have authorized rage on in multiple countries. For our own sakes, for the sake of posterity and for the sake of humanity itself, the American people must activate their absolute right and duty and abolish this government. Yes, it is that time.
Here on 12.160Mhz we all have certain goals in common. We argue about the details but our…

Or, an operational guide to terrorism:
Isn't it curious how every little terror attempt, even the really stupid ones like the "shoe-bomber," this guy and the doctor who tried to blow-up a car load of gas cans in London are turned into gigantic proofs of a "world-wide Islamist conspiracy"? This incident was first reported as firecrackers on an airplane, now tools like Rep. King of NY claim that it was a "sophisticated device." Surely the organization of Islamic supermen who can run…

As of Friday morning, Michael Badnarik was awake and spunky. He asked what happened to him and how long had he been out? He was told it was Christmas and he asked what year. He is very weak of course but he is improving very rapidly! They removed the temporary pacemaker and the doctors are very pleased with Michael's progress. He is still heavily sedated to keep him calm and immobile. So, he is not awake due to the medication but is getting better every day.
Please don't call…

If there is a God you can believe that whatever we choose to call her/him, God, Yeshuah, Yahweh, Buddha, Elohim, Elohay or Allah, the same entity answers to all and if there is a supreme being there's surely ONLY ONE and we will all answer to it.
Would it be a surprise to find out that there's only one supreme being?
Would it be a surprise to find out that he/she doesn't care by which name you call her?
Would it be a surprise to find out that because you dislike…

I just want to preface this post with a short opinion. Keep in mind that I am neither Christian nor Jewish nor Muslim.
Many of us here in the west have been propagandized by the media to fear and hate the Muslim world. Believers in Islam are vilified, called fanatics and terrorists and we believe that they're under the couch or hiding in the closet waiting to kill us with box cutters. With the latest attempt this week to blow up a US airplane with firecrackers this picture is…

If Iraq war spending helped plunge the U.S. economy into its worst slump since the Depression, what does President Obama think his escalation of the Afghan war will do it?
Besides forcing taxpayers to cough up fresh billions to enable the Pentagon to chase down a few hundred Taliban fighters, the Afghan war is liable to continue to inflate oil prices---and this means more than the ongoing swindle of motorists at the pump.
Higher oil prices also…
