I don’t have kids but I do know that a lot of families are looking for cheap ways to keep their children occupied this summer.

Cass Sunstein, Obama Czar, Information and Regulatory Affairs, White House office, Sunstein quotes, - (USA)
Speaking about the US Constitution: “it is an imperfect document.” Barack Obama “Why should we be governed by people long dead? … In any case, the group that ratified the Constitution included just a small subset of the society; it excluded all women, the vast majority of African Americans, many of those without property, and numerous others who were not permitted to vote.” Cass Sunstein “we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor.” Signe

Fabricating an Enemy - (USA)
Fabricating an Enemy 16 11 2008 Fabricating an Enemy by Michel Chossudovsky One of the main objectives of war propaganda is to «fabricate an enemy» . As anti-war sentiment grows and the political legitimacy the Bush Administration falters, doubts regarding the existence of this “outside enemy” must be dispelled. As the date of the planned invasion of Iraq approaches, the Bush Administration and its indefectible British ally have multiplied the “warnings” of future Al Qaeda terrorist attacks

The Saddle - (USA)
It would not be a wrong assumption that my recent trip to a mountainous environ would involve taking in the powdery slopes of some ski resort. However, even though this recreation is native to my home state, it is not something i usually engage in, due largely to my fascination with exploring the outdoors. Whenever i travel back, i like to fill my time with walks, drives, hikes, rock-climbing, and on a rare treat, horseback riding. I have stated before my experience with horses, but i haven't

The Big, Raw, NBA-WWE Comparison - (USA)
July 28th, 2009DominicLeave a commentGo to comments So I’m definitely in the summer doldrums slump, but sports goes on. I’m not invested enough in baseball or football to care enough right now, so I’ve fallen to watching pro wrestling like I was 14 again. Let me say that it was 1998 when I was 14, as in right in the thick of the nWo, Monday night wars, and invasion storylines that drove the Attitude Era. Suffice it to say, things are different now. I’ve heard the current era called “the PG

New York Honors Che Guevara with a Statue On Friday November 21st, while strolling through Central Park’s Doris C. Freedman Plaza, Commentary Magazine’s online editor Abe Greenwald noticed a statue and did a double take. “Is that…Che Guevara?” Indeed! There was no mistaking it: a statue of “El Che” by German artist, Christian Jankowski. Upon investigating the matter, Abe Greenwald learned that, “the sculpture is not intended to depict Che Guevara,” but rather a street performer from Barc

A Contemplation on Music - (USA)
Have you seen the welcome address to parents of the incoming freshman class at Boston Conservatory? It was delivered by Karl Paulnack, director of the music division at Boston Conservatory. One of my parents’ deepest fears, I suspect, is that society would not properly value me as a musician, that I wouldn’t be appreciated. I had very good grades in high school, I was good in science and math, and they imagined that as a doctor or a research chemist or an engineer I might be more appreciated

Kim Jong-il's love of the people in the military-first era - (USA)
It is a small stand against incalculable evil but if Italy's move to block the sale of two yachts gets up Kim Jong Il's nose I am all in favour. Also encouraging, in a roundabout way, is news of a new North Korean "luxury" resort hotel. Note to enthusiastic undergraduates, sheltered academics and one Manchurian president: This is the best statism has to offer.North Korea on Monday celebrated the completion of what it has hailed as a "world-class" hotel in the Majon resort area in Hamhung, South

Summer Activities for Kids: 10 Non-Electronic Outings - (USA)
Reader Sue asked, “I have a seven year old daughter, can you suggest ways and means to keep her occupied during the summer holidays. I don’t want her to get hooked on to the TV or the hi-tech games.” I think this is a multi-faceted question, because there are many aspects to managing large amounts of free time for kids. In the first article, I covered summer camps , and in the next one I will cover limiting (undesirable) activities. This one will focus on finding activities for kids to do.

disaster profiteering - (USA)
DISASTER PROFITEERINGLet's just get this out of the way first thing. I approve of profiteering, price gouging, obscene profits and usury. I think check cashing businesses should be allowed to run unmolested. Gas stations should be allowed to charge whatever they wish during shortages. You may not approve, being indoctrinated by the People's Re-Education Camps at a young and impressionable age. You think everything should be "fair". You think the intelligent should be penalized because they can g
