What is the wrong with this guys? Why is it that when i view the month of November 2010 it also view the month of 2009?Can anyone help me?

<?php include("db.php");

$query = mysql_query("SELECT distinct YEAR(local_date) as year FROM tbl_localnews order by local_date desc");
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($query)) {
//$row = array_unique($r);
$unique_year = $row['year'];
echo($unique_year)."<br>";

$query2 = mysql_query("select distinct monthname(local_date) as month from tbl_localnews where local_date like '$unique_year%' order by local_date desc");
while($r2 = mysql_fetch_array($query2)) {
//$row2 = array_unique($r2);
$unique_month = $r2['month'];
print("<a href='news.php?month=$unique_month'&year=$unique_year>News for $unique_month</a><br>");
//echo($unique_month);
}

}
?>

This is my display

<?php

$year = $_REQUEST['year'];
$last_date = "";
$result = mysql_query("SELECT *,YEAR(local_date) as year FROM tbl_localnews where year(local_date)='".$year."' ORDER BY local_date DESC ");
//echo '<h1>'.$month.'</h1>';
if(mysql_num_rows($result))
{
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
if ($row['local_date'] != $last_date) {
print("<h2>News for ".date('F j, Y',strtotime($row['local_date']))."</h2>");
$last_date = $row['local_date'];
}
print("<p><b>".$row['local_title']."</b></p>");
print("<p>".$row['local_desc']."</p>");
// print("<p><b>".date('F j, Y',strtotime($row['local_date']))."</b></p>");
//print("<p><b>".$row['local_title']."</b></p>");
//print("<p>".$row['local_desc']."</p>");
}
mysql_free_result($result);
}
?>
