U.N. drug control officers said the Taliban religious militia has nearly wiped out opium production in Afghanistan -- once the world's largest producer -- since banning poppy cultivation last summer. (2001)

Now:

Afghanistan poppy cultivation skyrockets

WASHINGTON - Afghanistan will produce another record poppy harvest this year that cements its status as the world's near-sole supplier of the heroin source, yet a furious debate over how to reverse the trend is stalling proposals to cut the crop, U.S. officials say.

Not once in the article above did the writer say anything about the Taliban wiping out Opium production and instead says the Taliban is using the production to further their agenda.

I already had my one year old female cat, Evie when I got Nala (11 weeks) from the local shelter. It's been 3 days since I got Nala and she's adjusting very well. Evie was a little upset at first but seems to be getting used to the little kitten. At night and when I've been at work, I keep Nala in my bedroom with her own litter and food/water, and let Evie have the rest of the apartment. I have to leave Tuesday at 7am-Thursday Afternoon, is it okay to leave a new kitten of that age alone, should I worry about her eating her food and generally being okay? I hope this doesn't sound too silly, but I'm just hoping someone has some feedback!

Okay, well I have a wedding to go to on August 11. And I need a dress. I am 11 years old and I have no good dresses. Should I buy a new dress that's cheap and trendy (between $20-$35) or borrow a dress from my neighbor who is 14? If I do buy a dress I need to either buy it in Great Mall (Milpitas, CA) or Valley Fair (Santa Clara, CA). If you could help me look online that would be great!


Love,

Klarissa

Hi BranFlan, I'm glad to see I'm not the only one here that likes that particularly well written series! But, that is the only thing I can think of that describes the plant that I know exists in the area I mentioned, that if I could get my hands on it I would be able to go back to work. I have acute rhuematoid and Osteo arthritis and severe Osteoperosis and its all in my lower back. If I can get the pain numbed down so that I could walk and be functional again, I could go back to work.
Believe me- poverty is highly overrated when you have to get by on only one paycheck!!

Can the medicine of the company Mederex cure cancer? Mederex makes antibodies to cure cancer. I heard that this medicine is very promising to cure cancer. Is that true?

They ALWAYS voice that complaint when it seems that's the standard formula for movies; You start slowly to create the mood and introduce characters, then build to the big climax. So why do people always complain because they spend 20 minutes establishing things. If they didn't people would complain about lack of 'character development'. (another lame criticism).

Does this tell you anything you didn't know before? Terrorism is not Islamic. I don't care what those who anti Islam say, because the verses they quote are taken out of context. No muslim will listen to that because they know for sure that those verses are taken as part of a situation, and not a command to do away with anyone not muslim. Even some non muslims have looked into it and can see that. What do you think of this?
