Obama’s law; March of Dimes; Finding balance; more
ANOTHER VOICE: Library board of directors: We need you!
The porn topic returns a year later. Yes, there have been letters written, people stabbing each other in “letters to the editor” and making extreme comments about “Nazism” etc., but let’s look at some facts. I would like to challenge our library board of directors to do some research and get back to the community regarding our valid concerns. Here are some things I found:
Blossom Time: A festival for everyone
Starting this weekend, it’s time to celebrate Blossom Festival.

Drink cold to get warm; Sing for your supper; Kudos to Follies; more
Project Graduation: Safe party needs help
Thanks to a group of caring parents, and wide community support, Hood River Valley High School’s Class of 2013 will have a fun and safe graduation party on June 7. The all-night party is held each year at the Hood River Elks Lodge, which donates the space.
ANOTHER VOICE: USDA school nutrition rule bears fruit
The U.S. Department of Agriculture works every day to improve childhood nutrition and combat obesity in order to raise a healthier generation of Americans.

There are currently almost 130,000 LLCs (limited liability companies) registered in Oregon. These companies represent businesses of all sizes, but the vast majority are small businesses working and employing people in communities throughout Oregon.

Library policies re: porn; Something of value
Natural link: The current and potential wonders of Powerdale Corridor

Porn is not free speech; Calm the porn storm; Call before you dig; more
ANOTHER VOICE: Teach our children the full cost of war
The National Museum of American History, and a billionaire who has funded a new exhibit there, would like you to know that we’re going to need more wars if we want to have freedom.
ANOTHER VOICE: Make accountability universal standard
I’d like to discuss the word accountability. It’s an interesting word that has been inflated to the point that it can mean almost anything. It’s like the phrase “moving forward.” Or another abused word, “reform.”
