Indigenous Peoples of Canada March on Canadian Embassy in Copenhagen to Protest Tar Sands

Canada is the largest supplier of oil to the United States, and most of it comes from the Alberta tar sands. Described as the world's biggest single industrial source of carbon emissions, the tar sands have drawn widespread protest and civil disobedience from environmentalists. On Tuesday, as climate delegates met across town at the Bella Center, a protest led by indigenous peoples of Canada was held outside the Canadian embassy. Democracy Now!'s John Hamilton files a report.

Cheap, Safe Drug Kills Most Cancers
http://www.truthout.org/issues_06/013007HA.shtml

It sounds almost too good to be true: a cheap and simple drug that kills almost all cancers by switching off their "immortality." The drug, dichloroacetate (DCA), has already been used for years to treat rare metabolic disorders and is known to be relatively safe. It also has no patent, meaning it could be manufactured for a fraction of the cost of newly developed drugs.
