601. Katrina Changed World History
     Much has been made of the tragedy in the southern U.S. over the past few weeks. The media have enjoyed immensely showing us scenes of people who were stranded on housetops and stuck in unhealthy shelters. Sadly, what many of them missed was the good stuff that happened to the large majority of one million people who were forced to evacuate their homes and leave their home states to bunk in with others, sometimes total strangers. Some, for example, are staying as far away as Canadian univer…

603. Pending Oil Crisis By Karen Boyer
     Heavens, what are we up against? It seems these days that we are inundated with worsening situations, not just in Canada but worldwide:  Increasing terrorism threats; Global arrests of Al Qaeda operatives; More corruption in our Canadian Liberal federal government; A backlash against Official Bilingualism resulting in Mini Official Bilingualism referendums, that incidentally are overwhelmingly against implementing Official Bilingualism in Canada’s Capitol; A new Republic of Western Canada dem…



604. Why Edward Abington, Jr. Must be Investigated! By David Ben-Ariel
     "The American Diplomat in Arafat's Corner," published in The Jerusalem Report, came as no surprise to me. It was referring to Edward Abington, Jr., the United States' former consul general in Jerusalem who is now "guiding the Palestinians through the labyrinths of Washington. And his firm is being paid $2.25 million for his expertise."Allow the following information to shed light on his less than faithful service to American taxpayers:"Dear Congresswoman Kaptur: Thank you for your valuable ass…



605. Peace in the Middle East By Robert Baird
     Peace in the Middle East - whoa that is a toughie.You have millennia of sheople being led around by the nose while abusing their mothers and daughters on both (or all eight or nine) sides of the issue and then there is all that oil that corpserists backing the US are in need of.I suspect there needs to be real ecumenicism and the religions must be forced (which will require Bush or someone also admitting all religions say the same things) to say so. And then it will take years of re-programmin…



606. Six Sigma Can Improve Government Practices By Peter Peterka
     Government bodies at any level, local, state, and Federal, can implement Six Sigma to improve customer service and increase the effectiveness of government. Although Six Sigma has its roots in private-sector manufacturing, it works just as effectively in governmental organizations and government will reap the same benefits as corporations.Many top companies have produced outstanding results with Six Sigma, dramatically cutting costs, increasing profits, and improving customer service. Governme…



607. Water at the Roots of Twenty First Century's Conflicts By Bagneki Hugues
     According to a postulate made by Ignacio Ramonet ecological resources are deemed to constitute the main cause of this new century. Water as a source of scourge concerns: oceans and seas on the one hand (that’s over 71 of the globe surface) and access to potable water (underground reserve and rivers) on the other hand. Over the years, water has gradually become a stake at many levelsWater: an economic stakeWater without any single doubt constitutes a consumption goods and surely the mos…



608. How The Republicans Stole The 2004 US Election
     When I first learned that George W. Bush won the 2004 Presidential election, I was shocked. 'How could that be?' I thought. This man is a criminal. How could America have done such a horrific thing? Keep this monster as President? He is a man who has caused an estimated 100 000 deaths in Iraq.After November 2nd, bits and pieces of the truth started surfacing. As intellectuals started investigating and uncovering the evidence, it became clear that George W. and his regime committed the most hein…



609. Fast Food : No Legal Recourse
     Do you eat fast food? You must. According to the House of Representatives, the fast food industry is a significant part of our national economy. It did not become that way be having few customers. Many independent researches have found that fast food is unhealthy and causes weight gain. This research suggests there is something 'faulty' with fast food. Our nation is becoming more obese by the day and many obese people are attributing their weight gain to fast food consumption. In the documentar…



610. HE WILL ALSO INVADE THE BEAUTIFUL LAND...The U.S.-Israel Strategic Alliance - Part III
     THE WEST'S INTRUSION INTO THE LAND OF THE PATRIARCHS--NOTHING BUT TOTAL VICTORY! The West's fascination with the Holy Land--the 'Beautiful Land' or 'Glorious Land' (Daniel 11:41)--be it for 'hidden/material' or 'prophetic/spiritual' treasures, has climaxed at the apex of the modern era in America's most recent intrusion into Iraq. The last Caliphate, the Ottoman Turks, collapsed at the close of World War I. On December 11, 1917, British Field Marshal, Edmund Allenby, dismounted, and walked throu…



611. Crime: An Analysis By Andy Carloff
     IntroductionIt seems that thinkers, philosophers, social critics, and typically anyone concerned with the plight of those who must endure through misery and suffering, usually make references to the poverty, oppression, and crime of those who must go through a harder life. Throughout the ages, the political leaders of a nation, whom have been elected by their campaign funds or their birth rights, have always given great concern to ending crime. Murder, robbery, and rape have typically been r…



612. End Time Clock Ticking Away? By Diane Williams
     Earlier this month, I heard President George W. Bush and Mahmoud Abbas, the Prime Minister of the Palestinians speaking of another Peace Treaty with Israel. President Bush spoke about the boarder security of the two countries: Israel and Palestine. Abbas of course, spoke of achieving final peace between the two nations. Upon hearing these two heads of state speak, I remembered what the Bible stated in 1st Thessalonians Chapter 5: Verse 3: "When you hear them say peace and safety then sudden…



613. Liberals Continue to Trash on Bush By Lance Winslow
     The liberal rhetoric is getting fairly loud and somehow this self-induced disenfranchised group believes that they have a mandate to attack the Commander in Chief? Not so. Oh they point to the political attack on Scooter Libby, an honorable American. They point to the war in Iraq and the recent elections for Governor. Elections, which were so vindictive and petty, I would not have voted for either side with all those millions of dollars spent in character assassination attack ads. They even po…



614. Fixing the World By Lance Winslow
     Many have wanted to fix the world, so few understand where to start. It is indeed a tough choice, as there really is so much that needs to be fixed. Both with our selves and our civilization, so where does one start. Most of us, even the most enlightened thinker admits they are clueless as to how to even begin to think of all the types of fixes. Sure some of us can point to three or four, maybe five things that are extremely problematic. These folks point to homeless, healthcare, starving Afri…

616. Global Initiative of Electronic Commerce Taxation; Guiding Principles for Pakistan By Adil Waseem
     1. United States of America (USA)In the United States, legislation was introduced in the House of Representatives and the Senate, creating the Internet Tax Freedom Act, which represents a continuing effort on the part of federal legislation to ensure that the taxation of economic activity, whether electronic or otherwise, is dealt with in an impartial manner. This Act created a three year moratorium for all e-business activities, in effect from October 1, 1998, until October 21, 2001, that exc…



617. The Sexist Tragedy By Andy Carloff
     A hero's words die slowly once his body has been given back to the earth. A last kiss. A song. A sunrise. A breeze. A memory of what it was once like.Millions of children have had to grow up in a world that believed virtue, goodness, and strength to be male traits, and believed that lust, viciousness, and betrayal to be female traits. Long years of battling, using the weapon of argument and the shield of rhetoric, have gained territory for the Feminist movement. Everywhere there could b…



618. Common Sense vs. Common Senseless - How Thomas Paine Can Be Applied To Modern Day; Part One By Alexia Lunningham
     INTRODUCTIONPERHAPS the sentiments contained in the following pages, are not yet sufficiently fashionable to procure them general favor; a long habit of not thinking a thing wrong, gives it a superficial appearance of being right, and raises at first a formidable outcry in defence of custom. But the tumult soon subsides. Time makes more converts than reason.You don’t want to hear this, you are content in your general ignorance. You have been brainwashed into thinking that your personal views a…



619. 7 Proposals to solve the Unemployment Problem
     The subject is constantly in the news and may decide the next national elections – the infamous jobless recovery. More than 8 million Americans are out of work with another 4 million underemployed or no longer looking for work. Good manufacturing, technical and services jobs are being shipped to India, Asia, and other developing countries. The mood of the middle and working class becomes more pessimistic, the outlook for their immediate future more grim.Politicians debate solutions: abrogating c…

621. What Does It Take
     What does it take to make people realize that we live in the United States, an how important it is to buy things that are built in this country, if you don't think so, just ask the Ford motor company, who's chomping at the bit, just to stay alive in this economy. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see what's going on here, people have quit supporting our country and it's products, and this is a sad thing to see happening in the USA, I think it's all due to the ignorance of the people that cal…



622. John Roberts – Supreme Court Nominee By Richard Chapo
     President Bush’s selection of the Hon. John Roberts is an interesting choice. The betting, and there had been betting, was on a minority or female candidate. Instead, President Bush swings for the fences with a middle-aged, white male. Let the ugliness begin.CompetencyRegardless of your political views, Roberts’ intellectual competency cannot be questioned. This man was a very competent lawyer and is a thoughtful judge. As an advocate, his arguments before the Supreme Court were always creativ…



623. Religion, Wars and Civilization By Lance Winslow
     Many are quick to point out the benefits of religion in civilization as the bond that keeps us together; a bond, which keeps society from disrupting into chaos and spontaneously turning to anarchy. Yet, to do so without discussion of the flip side of the coin is misleading at best. Religion may have its place in mankind’s groupings, but we must understand what we give up for it in return for its few benefits.Some of these draw backs to religion are the loss of innovation from self derived will…

625. Mexicanizing America By Douglas Bower
     A friend of mine, who lives in the thick of the Arizona conflict concerning illegal Mexican migrants, sent me a web site that you really should read:http://www.newswithviews.com/Wooldridge/frosty59.htm.It features an article by a man named Frosty Wooldridge (I am not making this name up!). It was the cause of my response to her e-mail:###"The article you sent that I read (and I have read this sort of extremism before), was, as you said, an interesting viewpoint.However, it is just that--"a vie…
