We all know made in Korea textiles, household goods and toys. Can any one tell me, how many of us know N. Korea had the nuclear power station? Who gave all necessary equipments to develop this nuclear power? If the leader of this country is bad as Saddam Hussain then why was he still in power while Saddam Hussain is in custody? Why not the world famous leaders did not go to N. Korea to over throw the leader. Now this country is a threat to western world should it be punished?

She's a great woman. Strong, powerful, and beautiful too (A great representative for this nation).

She would be a great president. And Gayle (Oprah's best friend ... they got into a fight but it's all good now) could be the vice president too.

Oprah could teach those male politicians a lesson. She would be a great president, and I think she should and I hope she does ... run for president. What do you think? Would you vote for Oprah?

I know of a public school where the students are required to perform 60 hrs of community service in order to graduate. These are good, smart, young people. It is assumed that the volunteer work will help the community and make the students better citizens when they graduate. I need suggestions for projects to propose. Thanks.

Reporter says magazine killed story in May,
2 newspapers had info from source 1 year ago
October 10, 2006

A Democratic operative shopped around the story of disgraced former congressman Mark Foley's inappropriate behavior with male pages more than one year ago, according to Harper's magazine.


In a story posted today on the weekly's website, reporter Ken Silverstein says that in May he received copies of the now-infamous e-mail exchanges between Foley and a 16-year-old page.


Silverstein said that one year ago his unnamed source provided the same material to the St. Petersburg Times and, he "presumes," the Miami Herald, which both decided against publishing the stories. The two papers already have acknowledged receiving copies of the e-mails ? the Times said it didn't run the story because the e-mails contained "nothing overtly sexual," and the boy and his family wouldn't speak on the record.




The Harper's reporter wrote a story after receiving the e-mails in May, but the magazine did not publish it, he said, "because we didn't have absolute proof that Foley was, as one editor put it, 'anything but creepy.'"


In the e-mails ? which were not sexually explicit but, nevertheless, troubled the teens' parents ? Foley requested a photograph and asked what the 16-year-old wanted for his birthday. Later, Foley's salacious instant-message exchanges with another teen prompted his resignation.

Is John McCain just trying to shift some blame onto the democrats as the republicans are pretty much circling the bowl right now? Is he trying to rile up the republican base in an effort to counter the negative effects of Woodwards book, Foley, Iraq, etc? Is he just blindly throwing haymakers hoping to land a fluke knockout punch?

Why is it everytime the United States does something wrong the world hates us? But if some other country does something wrong everyone just gets over it or expresses 'concern'?

Also any thoughts on the impracticality of the building ? The inside debating chamber does look quite special though - pity it's too small and keeps falling down.
