1201. Anarchy: Law, Order, and Authority By Andy Carloff
      [Author's Note: Another essay that I wrote on notebook paper during boring school hours. This wonderful little piece was starting in boring English class on Tuesday, November 26, 2002, and continued into Art class. It was finished in school on Tuesday, December 2, 2002, when I finished it in English class. I worked on it in no other class, and finished it within a few classes. Hooray for high school.]The BeginningIf a group of people were to live on an island, who would govern who, how, a…



1202. Protecting the American People Through Technology By Lance Winslow
      It is amazing the latest technologies used in the United States Military; we have certainly come light years in a very short time. Our military is the most technologically advanced army in the World.Today we can control whole Armies with Blue Force Tracking, PDAs, Bio-Metrics, under skin RFID, all by satellite, RF, non-active pinging, AWACS, etc. There is even talk of figuring out ways to track your enemies troop movements, Red Force tracking by hacking into their system, then marching them in…



1203. When Will America Wake Up? By Bruce Schwartz
      In order to win the presidency in America, candidates must stir up the religious fervor of the voters (gay marriage/civil union) and then vocally (and in some cases visually) wear your (new) Evangelical beliefs on your sleeve. It used to be candidate vs. candidate, then party vs. party, big business vs. the common (wo)man, platform vs. platform, then region vs. region, but now none of that matters as a new America has emerged, an America in which the majority with a religious manifest rules th…



1204. The True Power of Terrorism By Virginia Bola, PsyD
      Those of us hundreds of miles from ground zero sat glued to our television sets with horror and disbelief as two of the tallest buildings in the world slowly disintegrated in a violence of dust and death.Since that bright September morning in 2001, none of us have felt the same. Undergoing an unexpected and brutal national rape, we shuddered at our own vulnerability and defenselessness.In grief, anger, and frustration, we gathered our tattered dignity around us and vowed repeatedly that it wou…



1205. Right, Right Back At Ya!
      I've decided that this liberal needs to start throwing the same crap at conservatives that they're slinging at us. Yes, I am going to sink to their level because they're winning.Conservative jackass: We are winning in Iraq and the unsuccessful attacks in London prove that the terrorists are weakened because of it.Indy: People as dumb as you should not be allowed to breathe.Honestly, how can anyone have a rational argument with a conservative who is so irrational as to question your motivations, …



1206. Sour Grapes Between: China, the US and EU By Dennis Siluk
      Much is being said about China nowadays, most of it not good. I was in China in l996, and the people were good to fair to shitty, to nice. So somewhat like a few other countries I know, but not as bad as France, and not as good as South American countries; so all-in-all, not bad. We have been trying hard to get China to join the world for a long time, a very long time, and we have; matter-of-fact, it was the United States who opened the doors for them into the WTO [World Trade Organization].…



1207. So How Far Have We Come? Here are some of the 2001 Anti Terrorist Projects By Lance Winslow
      An article in Information Week in January 14, 2002 discussed an interesting subject of tracking terrorists. It talked about tracing of spending by Terrorists. Things like airlines, car rentals, hotels, credit cards, telephones, banks, etc. and the vast software available. It talked in detail, I mean real detail about the ACL Services LTD. Software consultants and forensic accountants. I thought to my self after reviewing all the data and information on the Internet about NetMap, which also run…



1208. Are Social Security Private Accounts a Good Deal or Raw Deal for African Americans? By Bret Searles
      How many legs does a dog have if you call the tail a leg? Calling the tail a leg doesn't make it a leg. -- Abraham LincolnWhew! I almost wrote a really long article about the Social Security System and what it means to Black folks.Fortunately, I fell asleep while writing it just like you would have reading it. I can't think of anything more boring then an in depth analysis of what is wrong with Social Security.I think that one thing the under 40, Black Am…



1209. How Senator Sarbaines and Oxley Destroyed America By Lance Winslow
      You have probably heard of the Sarbaines Oxley Law (SOX) on corporate governance to make corporations totally transparent. And the voters and investors wanted this law so they could know which companies to invest in so they could make 20% per year on their money, which they damn well feel entitled to. The issues is that those corporations abroad do not have to follow those laws and therefore are able to scan and study all that financial data to beat American Companies in the market place.Then …



1210. Without Trucks America Stops By Lance Winslow
      Do you ever wonder how everything gets to the super markets? It came by truck. Some items come from half way around the world. First by ship or plane in a container, then loaded on rail or truck and dropped at a depot, then resorted and taken to the store. Everything goes to the store in boxes and leaves in your SUV in small containers via a shopping cart or plastic bag thru the check out and parking lot.Recently products have been available online and are delivered to your doorstep thru the …



1211. Weapons of Mass Destruction
      Trying to control the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction is probably the most important issue facing the world's population today. It's certainly the most dangerous, because more and more countries are trying to develop these weapons. Now I'm talking more about the nuclear threat, rather than the bacterial and chemical threats, although these are just as dangerous and have to be controlled as well. The countries that we know that have these nuclear weapons at present are the USA, the …



1212. The Truth About Power and Absolute Zero By Lance Winslow
      Societies have always had a problem of what to do with their young males with high testosterone. In many countries it is important for them to kill off many of them. In times of war it is advantageous to kill off those who may eventually challenge the dictator. Kings of tribes in Africa realized that they too could get rid of their strong males in order to stay in power by selling them as slaves. Yet in doing so the tribes become weak and have issues with the genes of strength and then are …



1213. 911 Conspiracy Theory Revealed During Coffee Shop Conversation By Lance Winslow
      A coffee shop conversation about a Great Country in Historic Times. It seems there are many out there who believe in conspiracy theories and are all too quick to label and judge our leadership as evil. They are looking for conspiracy theories and people to blame, I suppose that is human nature? Unfortunately there are problems with conspiracy theories because they tear down trust. Regarding this post:http://www.parthe.net/_cwg1203/00000028.htmA reader writes in to discuss topics of Patriotism…



1214. Arson Neighborhood Mobile Watch Program for Summer Fire Season By Lance Winslow
      Due to the bizarre weather patterns this winter California got pummeled with rain storms while Oregon and Washington are at a deficit. Nevada and Arizona now have deserts, which have come alive with blooming and greenness. These events are even evident from satellite photos from 100’s of miles above the Earth. Even Colorado, Montana, Wyoming are a rain deficits.The greenery in the deserts will dry out towards the end of summer and add fuel for a fast moving fire. The drying out brush in Wa…



1215. Bush Administration Condemned for Continental Drift By Lance Winslow
      Some are calling for the political ousting of the President when they recently learned in a University Geology class that Continental Drift and Plate Tectonics are the cause of Super volcanoes and Earthquakes as well as Super Plumes and Tsunamis. You see the Federal Government under the leadership of one George Walker Bush, has done nothing to stop the plate tectonics. In fact evidence shows that Continental Drift maybe the cause of much of our problems with the climate heating up.Further stud…



1216. No More Support for President Bush By Chris Souther
      As the 2000 elections drew near, my family eagerly awaited the chance to cast our ballots for George W. Bush. Being from Texas, we felt a kindred spirit in Mr. Bush and believed his leadership could lead us out of what we felt were two wasted terms of presidential leadership under President Clinton.Mr. Bush promised a return to conservatism, harkening back to the glory days of President Reagan. A “new tone,” that’s what was promised, and in this, President Bush has not disappointed. Unfortunat…



1217. John Roberts Confirmation Hearings By Lance Winslow
      It sure is wonderful to have serious hearings to confirm a new Supreme Court Judge, who will become the head of the Supreme Judges in our Civilization. It is wonderful to see the Senators ask those ever so important questions of the nominated head of the third branch of our government. Isn’t it just like a politician to get up on a podium to ask those serious questions?My friends these are not hearings to confirm anyone, these confirmation hearings are being used as yet another media opportuni…



1218. OPEC's Swan Song? By Sam Vaknin
      Indonesia's Energy Minister, Purnomo Yusgiantoro, is unhappy with the modest production cut, from June 1, of 2 million barrels per day, adopted by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries last week. He intends to demand further reductions at the June 11 get-together in Qatar.The deal struck is so convoluted and loopholed that actual output declines may amount to no more than 600,000 bpd, assuming, miraculously, full compliance. Quotas were first raised before the war to 27.4 million b…



1219. Excerpt From An Iraqi Citizen's Blog
      To understand the toll on the people of Iraq, forget the US cable news networks,go to the people of Iraq. The following is an excerpt from one of Iraq's citizens taken from: http://riverbendblog.blogspot.com/The cousin, his wife S. and their two daughters have been houseguests these last three days. They drove up to the house a couple of days ago with several bags of laundry.

1220. A Pact Between India and Singapore By Dhirendra Deshpande
      Already, India has a free trade pact with Thailand. There is further scope for economic diplomacy for India in this region which can result in a larger share of the growing service pie. Viewed in this perspective the Singapore agreement is just a beginning, though a significant one in the right direction.Such bilateral pacts have assumed greater importance precisely because the WTO has not been able to make any breakthrough in movement of labour. The rich nations are opposed to GATS (General …



1221. Pope Bush and The Dixie Chick Prophets By Ellen Thunite
      Natalie Maines is a singer with the popular country group The Dixie Chicks. Natalie was born in Lubbock Texas. Shortly before the Iraq War began Natalie said in London that she was ashamed that President Bush was from Texas, because she opposed the idea of the United States invading Iraq. As a result of this comment, Natalie faced scorching criticism and even death threats from the American media and public. American country music stations vilified her and refused to play the Dixie Chicks musi…



1222. George & Dick's War of the Worlds?
      In 1938 Orson Wells made history when he inadvertently set off mass panic with his War of the Worlds broadcast. An early science fiction classic, War of the Worlds was the tale of a hostile Martian invasion of earth that Wells adapted for his radio audience. What created havoc was that many listeners tuned in as the show was already in progress and made the erroneous assumption that the Earth was really under attack. There were many stories of people taking drastic actions like evacuating their…

      All UAVs Need a Self Destruct BLOS DeviceWhat do you do when your latest technology equipped UAV crash lands in enemy territory?

The UAV malfunctioned and crashed.http://www.paktribune.com/news/index.php?id=88973When we went to retrieve it we were met with minor resistance as it fell within Pakistan’s side of the border. Imagine if we lost a UAV in North Korea or in Iran? The…



1224. Changing The Tone
      Changing the ToneByScott C. Smith“The spirit of cooperation I have seen in this hall is what is needed in Washington, D.C. It is the challenge of our moment. After a difficult election, we must put politics behind us and work together to make the promise of America available for every one of our citizens. I am optimistic that we can change the tone in Washington, D.C.” -- President George W. Bush, speech, Dec. 13, 2000. “That background may lack the polish of Washington. Then again, I don't have…



1225. Lies, Damned Lies... and Statistics: The U.S. Economic Reports
      Lies, Damned Lies…and StatisticsThe U.S. Economic ReportsBy Dene McGriffMark Twain, who said “there are three kinds of lies – lies, damned lies and statistics”, would turn over in his grave if he knew what the government had been doing with its reporting. As a result of government hype and reporting, the June Consumer Confidence Index soared the month of June 2005 to 105.8 and the stock market rose triple digits on the news. Optimism abounds as the economy appears to be doing well. Housing conti…
