Obama Extols Organized Labor in ‘Workers Memorial Day’ Proclamation
Obama Extols Organized Labor in ‘Workers Memorial Day’ Proclamation | CNS News:
"With high praise for labor unions and criticism for the manufacturing industry’s history, President Barack Obama declared Sunday to be “Workers Memorial Day.”
In the proclamation, Obama cited deplorable work conditions in factories during the early 20th Century.
“A combination of shoddy equipment and fatigue from long shifts made serious injury and death all too common,” the president said.
“Career-ending injuries often led to poverty and starvation.
From mine shafts to railroads to factory floors, workers began to speak out.”
He then praised organized labor and government regulation stopping these injuries and deaths."

The politically incorrect truth about violence and fundamental Islam
The politically incorrect truth about violence and fundamental Islam | Washington Times Communities:
"The truth is that the Koran directly compels Muslims to commit violent acts against disbelievers.
While the ultimate goal of Judaism and Christianity, the most prominent Western religions, is individual salvation, the ultimate goal of Islam is collective domination and for the entire world to be under Islamic control and Sharia law.
Muslims are instructed to do all that they can to facilitate this goal, including to kill and subjugate disbelievers and America MUST understand this or watch as our culture crumbles and our citizens continue to die."

Michigan 'brain drain' bill would give tax credits to college graduates who stay in state, pay loans | MLive.com:
"Michigan is working to keep college graduates in the state, and new legislation seeks to slow the "brain drain" with an additional incentive:
A tax credit for student loan payments.
"For me, it's kind of a first step in talent retention," said sponsoring state Rep. Andy Schor, D-Lansing,
"We have some of the best colleges and universities in the world, but people get educated here and then leave for Chicago or San Francisco or some place else.
We need to keep them in Michigan, and we need to keep them in our cities."

"Ready for the next Solyndra?
If you haven’t heard of GreenTech Automotive, that’s going to change. And fast.
The “green energy” company that boasts about building electric cars has recently been vaulted into the national spotlight because of its ties to top Clinton donors and Obama administration officials, and most disturbingly, because of its assault on freedom of speech by suing the Franklin Center and its independent journalism arm Watchdog.org."

Muskegon leaders contemplate branding project; What are outsiders saying about the community?
Muskegon leaders contemplate branding project; What are outsiders saying about the community? | MLive.com
"WMSRDC environmental planner Kathy Evans said Monday night’s discussions and feedback will be used to see if there is support for perception research and a full community branding project.
The Great Lakes Commission is offering a $12,000 grant for the initial research and the Muskegon Lake Watershed Partnership would contribute $1,000 to a $24,000 research effort.
Domine said that the research and its analysis that would lead to Muskegon’s “story” and the creative logos, slogans and advertising materials to support that would cost a total of about $80,000 and take a year to develop.
The community would have to find the financial resources to support the effort, Evans said."

Michigan road funding: House panel debates 20% registration fee increase, more for electric/hybrids
Michigan road funding: House panel debates 20% registration fee increase, more for electric/hybrids | MLive.com:
"Phil Lombard, a Ferndale resident who owns a Toyota Prius, told the panel that the proposed fees would create "a separate an unequal standard" for hybrid vehicles.
He pointed out that not all hybrids get great gas mileage while many traditional vehicles do, and he suggested that the proposed fee increase would generate more revenue than the state is currently losing as a result of hybrid technology.
"Hybrid owners aren't asking for thanks for leaving more gas at the tank for others, and we're not asking thanks for emitting less air pollution than other vehicles," he said.
"We're just looking for equitable, fair treatment. House Bill 4632 is unreasonable and punitive to hybrid vehicle owners."
