Washington, DC...Today, the House Judiciary Committee released an interim staff report titled, " GARM's Harm: How the World's Biggest Brands Seek to Control Online Speech." This report details how large corporations, advertising agencies, and industry associations through the World Federation of Advertisers (WFA) and specifically its Global Alliance for Responsible Media (GARM) initiative participated in boycotts and coordinated action to demonetize platforms, podcasts, news outlets, and other content that GARM and its members deem disfavored.

The 2024 GABA Arnold Independence Parade Photos & Video |
Posted by: thepinetree on 07/10/2024 01:29 PM

Arnold, CA...It was another great GABA Arnold Independence Day Parade & Weekend. Bonnie Saville was the well deserving Grand Marshall. There were lots of floats and a great turnout especially with the heat. Linda Baker did a wonderful job again this year putting it all together. We are a bit late in posting this because the heat caused issues with our video camera. The files ended up being corrupted and after the panic that I might not have parade video I got to work trying to fix it. Ended up using a repair tool that got most of it back. Some frames are jumpy so it has me believing that the stabilization processing in the camera was the culprit. Time for a new camera...but enough whining and we have 135 photos of the parade. So if you were in or had a family member in the parade odds are we have a photo in our gallery. And yes we have most of the parade video. Sorry for the delay and enjoy.

Stop The Bleed - Save A Life! ~ Merita Callaway |

Murphys, CA...Hands on Global (HOG) a medical non-profit has gone to Ukraine several times since March 2022. As a HOG volunteer, along with my sister Tama, who served as a nurse in Vietnam, I went to Ukraine on a couple of trips to deliver donated external fixators that reduce amputations and other equipment for orthopedic trauma surgeons. As part of our future trips, we are raising funds for Combat Application Tourniquets (CATs). Tama said these CATs save life and limbs, which would have helped in Vietnam.
