Turlock Community Scores with Stadium Redevelopment
Submitted by truthseekers on Fri, 2009-11-20 06:51.By Ted Howze
The collaborative effort between the Turlock City Council, acting as the Redevelopment Agency, and the Turlock Unified School District to renovate Joe Debely Stadium is a visionary project, a project which will provide an opportunity for two public agencies to work together for the benefit of our entire community in a number of ways which neither agency could currently achieve alone.
The proposed project will rebuild the woefully inadequate stadium that serves both of Turlock's high schools' student bodies and the whole community. One benefit of turfing the field and installing an all-weather track will be increased usability and availability of the stadium venue to better serve both Turlock high schools and the city's residents. The new track and turfed field stadium can accommodate numerous important community events, such as the American Cancer Society's annual Relay for Life.

Quick Fact: Limbaugh falsely claims undocumented immigrants "are covered" under House health care bill
November 19, 2009 5:41 pm ET
SUMMARY: On his November 19 radio show, Rush Limbaugh falsely claimed that undocumented immigrants "are covered" under the recently passed House health care bill. In fact, the Affordable Health Care for America Act (H.R. 3962) stipulates that those "not lawfully present" may not receive subsidies to purchase insurance.
From the November 19 broadcast of Premiere Radio Networks' The Rush Limbaugh Show:
Sheriff caught in a web of lies..Stanislaus County Sheriff defends sexual harassment class
Submitted by truthseekers on Tue, 2009-11-10 06:33.You read it here a week before the McClatchy News printed the story here, and at www.voiceofmodesto.org . Our Sheriff mislead the McClatchy News and the citizens of Stanislaus County once again.
Here is Garth Stapley's story, a day late(well actually a week late) and a dollar short....
The only Stanislaus County department among 27 that opts out of conventional sexual harassment training has been contending with three lawsuits brought by a total of six female employees.
The other 26 county departments, uniformly educated on combating sexual harassment, face one lawsuit brought by one woman claiming gender and disability bias.
Sheriff Adam Christianson defended his department's internal program, which meets a 5-year-old state law requiring sexual harassment training for supervisors every two years.

Why is Paul Warda Claiming the Salida Chamber of Commerce is endorsing him? There is NO Salida Chamber of Commerce
Submitted by truthseekers on Mon, 2009-11-02 08:41.Warda claims to be endorsed by a nonexistant Chamber of Commerce and Olsen claims to have family values, what a farce.
I've pointed out the direct relationship between Kristin Olsen and her contributors.
And have shown how Geers mind gets changes for contributions.
And the fallacy of Muratore's claims that most of his money comes from small donations(this can be seen in a video on his site). We know that despite his claims that less than 14% of his large campaign chest came from $100 dollar donors.
Now showing cause and effect isn't attacking, its framing the problem we have here in Modesto with undue influence by the building industry/developers/and those whos lively hoods depends on staying in the good graces of the first two.
Do you want your taxes to rise?
Do you want your sewer and water rates to rise?
We need fresh blood on the city council, and not fresh bought and paid for developer blood.

Is the stancoslimesider being Paid by the Olsen and Muratore Campaigns to Slime Their Opponents?
Submitted by truthseekers on Mon, 2009-11-02 06:54.Now that we know that the slimesider is a pay site thanks to Bmoore3, the question has become is the slimesider being paid for the use of its multiple sockpuppet accounts in order to attack Kristin Olsen's opponents.
Is Olsen's advertisement paid for? It isn't listed as a non-monitary contribution so has a delayed recompense been arranged for?
Others have noticed similar pictures on both the saraj and slimesider sites.
Will Kristin Olsen's campaign acknowledge a connection. At this point there has been no response.
And who is responsible for the sockpuppet account? Could it be the stancoslimesider or is it directly related to an insider at Olsen headquarters?
