Other (hopefully) Useful Links
The weather report for Hartford, CT. (Has it
changed yet?)
Statistics Links. Very useful stuff for those of
that mind.
HIV/AIDS links.
This is not meant to be an exhaustive list, but it will point you to some pages
that are.
Complementary and Alternative Medicine links. Although it is impossible to be even remotely complete in this area, these links will point you in many directions.
All the news you never read about can be found in the Undernews at the Progressive
Review.
Other useful progressive news (and opinion) sources are Alternet, Buzzflash, Bartcop, Commondreams (great list of news links), FromTheWilderness, London Independent, Guerrillanews, Tom Paine, LiberalOasis, RawStory, and Unknownnews.
Do you want informed opinion on the current state of
affairs in America? Progressives should try TheNation or CounterPunch; libertarians might want to look at Reason. Conservatives can open any
newspaper or watch any television news program.
For those news stories that disappeared at the speed of light (and maybe never appeared at all), you should head down TheMemoryHole.
Media criticism is available at FAIR. This site also includes a very nice set
of links to other media resources.
You may also want to look at the DailyHowler, Lying Media Bastards, Take Back the Media, and Cursor.
Interested in the state of the country? Try the Center for Defense Information, the National Priorities Project, the War Resisters League, the Center for Public Integrity, Institute for Policy Studies, Center for American Progress,
Brief and sensible commentary on abuse of science and technology can be had at WhatsNew, written by Bob Park. There is also the homepage of the Union of Concerned Scientists. If you want to keep up with all the news in science, look at Eurekalert.
In need of a quick humor fix at the
expense of almost anyone? Try the headlines in the Ironictimes. Guaranteed to produce at least a smile.
