Summer projects also include developing teacher lesson plans for Museum web site and compiling photos from both Cave Creek and Carefree

CAVE CREEK – Preserving history sometimes requires thinking to the future, and Cave Creek Museum is doing just that this summer.

The Museum is seeking volunteers of all ages to help digitize nearly 25,000 documents dating back to 1870. Help is also needed to compile past and current photos from both Cave Creek and Carefree to create a comprehensive photo disk. And, thanks to a grant from APS, Cave Creek Museum will create and post teacher lesson plans on its web site.

Urgent fundraising appeal

Please help

BELLEVUE, WASH. – KeepAndBearArms.com, a grassroots movement helping lawful people maintain their abilities to protect themselves, is experiencing a critical cash flow problem this spring and summer. They have many urgent needs at the moment – in particular getting caught up on bills owed.

They are also trying to expand the number of gun owners that visit their web site before Congress and many state legislatures take up new gun control measures. To do so requires placement of banner ads on other sites and ads in search engines like Google, Yahoo and MSN.

They plan on expanding their reach with more news, information, and grassroots action projects to expose and defeat the enemies of freedom.

Help them send a loud and clear message to the United Nations, Brady Center, Million Mom March, Violence Policy Center and the entire anti-gun rights movement.

At this time what is needed is funds. So, if you can join, renew, and/or make a mid-year contribution RIGHT NOW, it will help immensely. They need to raise $9,870 from generous donors to meet current obligations.

Donations can be made at www.KeepandBearArms.com or by mailing a check to: KeepAndBearArms.com, 12500 N.E. Tenth Place, Bellevue, WA.

A challenge for you

Join American Solutions
Gas prices are climbing – with a 20 percent jump in the past month alone. Unbelievably, although it is called cap and trade, it's just a new energy tax. Tackling climate change does not require regulating the energy use of every individual and business in America. That's not a solution – it's a recipe for another summer of $4 a gallon gas.

The "5 for 5: Stop the Energy Tax Challenge" was started to get the facts out.
Please read the five facts and sign the petition at www.AmericanSolutions.com. Urge your friends to do the same.

Think about it – how would these added expenses affect you, and your family? This new energy tax would:
• Raise inflation-adjusted gasoline prices by 74 percent
• Raise electricity rates 90 percent after adjusting for inflation
• Raise the cost of living of a typical household by $1,600 a year
• Raise residential natural gas prices by 55 percent
• Destroy 1-3 million jobs per year, every year until 2035

This new energy tax is neither an energy nor an environmental solution. It's a tax. And nobody thinks they're under-taxed.
Roll Call is reporting that Nancy Pelosi wants this passed by the Fourth of July recess. So, we must move fast.

Make the politicians listen – and act.
