 | | Naomi Wolf Celebrated Author of quotThe End of Americaquot; 38:25Fascinating interview with renowned author Naomi Wolf, perhaps best known for her early 1990s feminist classic "The Beauty Myth", considered by many to be one of the most important works of more...the 20th century. Wolf discusses her new book "The End of America", already on the New York Times bestseller list. The book identifies ten classic steps common to all dictatorships including those of Mussolini, Hitler and Stalin. Alarmingly, Wolf makes the case that each of these ten steps is occurring in post 9/11 America today. The book is a call to action for young and concerned Americans and this interview intimately frames this important discussion. less Tags: naomi wolf the end of america the beauty myth Category: News Views: 591 Comments: 8 Added: Dec 4, 07 By: sm0ky  | |  |  | | Arundhati Roy Author An Ordinary Persons Guide to Empire Must See) 06:53Arundhati Roy and David Barsamian at Seattle Town Hall. Author of: An Ordinary Persons Guide to Empire I think she's one of the most important thinkers in the world today. And so utterly charming, and tells more...it like it T..I..S. The most eloquent spokesman of our time! Picking between detergents....Great & so True of an analogy. Visit weroy.org for a whole documentary based on her Come September speech. Bio: Arundhati Roy (born November 24, 1961) is an Indian novelist, activist and a world citizen. She won the Booker Prize in 1997 for her first novel The God of Small Things.
Roy was born in Shillong, Meghalaya to a Keralite Syrian Christian mother and a Bengali Hindu father, a tea planter by profession. She spent her childhood in Aymanam, in Kerala, schooling in Corpus Christi. She left Kerala for Delhi at age 16, and embarked on a homeless lifestyle, staying in a small hut with a tin roof within the walls of Delhi's Feroz Shah Kotla and making a living selling empty bottles. She then proceeded to study architecture at the Delhi School of Architecture, where she met her first husband, the architect Gerard Da Cunha.
An unparalleled benchmark in documentary filmmaking. A wicked soundtrack. Powerful imagery. Arundhati Roy's speech strikes to the heart - every word poignantly and poetically weaving an intricate tapestry of our modern global ache. America, hear her clarity in objective voice; be confounded by it's compelling incisiveness. The film brought me to tears... grief is an under-rated thing in the American culture; main stream tv and movies have done a good job at Desensitizing the general public to what really happens when a person We love dies. less Tags: 911 america democracy war cia dictatorship september 11 iraq oil kurds arundhati roy iran middle east wmd kuwait desert storm skull bones Category: People Views: 137 Comments: 6 Added: Aug 21, 07 By: rclark23  | |  |  | | Words Through MyselfOriginal Poems 03:05Three self-penned poems... Hearts On Fire Hot blood comes coarsing, fast, through my veins "Hold on tight boy, hold onto the reins." Yesterday's burn remembers the unbargained wager Hot dice rolled, more...eyes closed, an imminent danger Yet, searing blazes ignite, ourselves aglow with fire As a tendered heart knows of love's ending pyre. How far must we keep from the inferno of the heat, To a cost of smoldering embers, our souls never to meet.
Two (To) A Bed
We sleep two (to) a bed touching only words left unsaid On scortched sheets faded, from view amongst no light, color, or hue.
Windswept dreams blown over passion winter's cold season faintly in fashion. I finally awake to a textile embrace, at love's hidden memory leaving no trace.
SHE IN SIX LINES
And, her vissage with strands of undulating curls, culminating in golden fire, cooled only by her white smile.
From amidst a vestal’s heart, uniformly consecrated by beams of Her returning, unending grace.
She walks in steps hinted by fragrence of patchouli, faint clues To indelible vestiges of her man’s heart.
Her sweet angel’s breath, speaks to the flowers of the field in Gentle tunes, to the light amusement of time.
A spark of her own, pursued and somehow found, careens throughout Worlds in unending lifespan, time curving inward, unto a lover’s equinox.
And yet, ashes rain fron an ascending phoenix, riding upon The sweet edges of a crest, emanating only…from her love, and... less Tags: poems poetry verse lyrics love endings writing author literature divorce thoughts folk pastoral heart passion daringdaver Category: Entertainment Views: 163 Comments: 9 Added: Jul 17, 07 By: DaringDaver  | |  |  | | You Can Be a Published Author Like Brett Keane 01:47How to be a published author, the easy way.

"How much are more...they really worth?? A film by producer and senior journalist Janine Roberts, author of Glitter & Greed: The Secret World of the Diamond Cartel. (1994) 102 minutes The Diamond Empire, which sent Shockwaves through the Transnational Diamond Industry when it first appeared, systematically takes apart the myth that "diamonds are forever." It exposes how one white South African family, through a process of monopoly and fantasy, managed to exert control over the Global flow of Diamonds and change the very way we think about Courtship, Marriage, and Love — an achievement all the more stunning given that Diamonds are in fact neither scarce nor imperishable. Zeroing in on how "the diamond empire" managed to convert something valueless into one of the most coveted commodities in history, the film provides a riveting look at how marketing and consumer culture shape not only global trade and economics, but also our very identities. MEF is delighted to be able to make this powerful educational resource available to teachers once again. De Beers is able to create an artificial scarcity of diamonds through its wholly-owned Central Selling Organization (CSO), thus keeping prices high. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartels A cartel is a group of formally independent producers whose goal is to increase their collective profits by means of price fixing, limiting supply, or other restrictive practices. The US oil and gasoline markets work the same way seeking to restrict the flow of IRAQ Oil for example. http://www.gregpalast.com/the-best-thing-in-the-world-for-big-oil/#more-1468 Now hold on a minute: Why is our government in a “Difficult” position if Iraq is a “swing producer” of Oil? The answer was that Saddam was jerking the Oil market up and down. One week, without notice, the man in the moustache suddenly announces he’s going to “support the Palestinian intifada” and cuts off all Oil shipments. The result: Worldwide oil prices jump up. The next week, Saddam forgets about the Palestinians and pumps to the maximum allowed under the Oil-for-Food Program. The result: Oil prices suddenly dive-bomb. Up, down, up, down. Saddam was out of control. “Control is what it’s all about,” one oilman told me. “It’s not about getting the oil, it’s about controlling oil’s price.” less Tags: mef diamond empire blood consumerism de beers oppenheimer sut jhally secret world janine roberts glitter and greed global trade obama clinton rothschild south african rclark23 romantic marriage courtship madison avenue wall street bailout monopoly cso Category: People Views: 498 Comments: 2 Added: Mar 2, 09 By: rclark23  | |  |  | | KULDIPTHE STAR OF LIGHT 02:54KULDIP--THE INTERNATIONAL SINGING SENSATION SINGS THE SONG "SI ALGUN DIA TE DEJASE" FROM THE BROADWAY MUSICAL "CAMELOT" KULDIP IS KULDIP--THE INTERNATIONAL SINGING SENSATION SINGS more...THE SONG "SI ALGUN DIA TE DEJASE" FROM THE BROADWAY MUSICAL "CAMELOT" KULDIP IS THE AUTHOR OF THE LYRICS IN SPANISH OF THIS SONG.- WEBSITE:- WWW.KULDIP.50MEGS.COM less Tags: kuldip singer composer poet lyricist author actor world music entertainment news Category: Music Views: 35 Comments: 2 Added: Jun 13, 08 By: adam7 | |  |  | | Book Orders being taken now! 02:19I am currently taking orders for the first in the series "The Adventures of Lewis the Dragon."

She takes him in and becomes attached to him. As a joke, she says she wants to keep him as a pet (dog.) To her surprise, the young man agrees. She names him Momo - after a pet from her childhood. Sumire provides room and board - and Momo provides unconditional love and loyalty. Sumire says there is no sex involved in their relationship, and she will only sleep with men who have the "three highs": higher pay, higher education and higher height (i.e. taller than her 170 cm.)

Many of Eternity's inhabitants who are witnessing the changes, become determined to understand what is happening. Amongst them evolves a certain sect of creatures who begin to enjoy the newfound knowledge. Different sensations are experienced as new emotions surface, which were hidden from them since the beginning of their existence.
