Yahoo! News - Tyson Stopped in Shocking Fourth-Round KO

FANTASTIC WRITING!

Beaten and battered, Tyson laid helplessly along the ropes, blood flowing down his face. The former baddest man on the planet stared ahead with a look of resignation on his face as his latest comeback — and perhaps his tumultuous career — collapsed along with him.

A super friend of mine made a great point today...

"They put flouride in the water for healthier teeth. If they put prozac in the water supply. The world would be a much happier place. not to mention more sane."

Definitely food for thought!

Teresa Heinz-Kerry speech at the 2004 Democratic Convention:

With John Kerry as President, global climate change and other threats to the health of our planet will begin to be reversed.

With John Kerry as President, the alliances that bind the community of nations and that truly make our country and the world a safer place, will be strengthened once more.


Will John Kerry also make water into wine?

Ohhhhhhhhhhhh PUHHHHHLEEEZE!

Edwards: All Fla. Votes to Count in Nov

ORLANDO, Fla. - Democratic vice presidential candidate John Edwards (news - web sites) pledged from the pulpit of a black church on Sunday that the party will work hard to head off the kind of Florida ballot irregularities that Democrats assert gave the White House to George W. Bush.

I guess it doesn't count that former Democratic Presidential Candidate Al Gore's suing to prevent the military votes from being counted in that contested election doesn't count.

Folks, it is not about LEADERSHIP and addressing problem that our country faces. It is about EGO and nothing but EGO.

NYT: COLLAPSE OF THE EARTH'S MAGNETIC FIELD ACCELERATES
Mon Jul 12 2004 18:17:38 ET

The collapse of the earth's magnetic field, which both guards the planet and guides many of its creatures, appears to have started in earnest about 150 years ago, the NY TIMES is planning to report on Page Ones Tuesday.

Science reporter Bill Broad has filed a report, according to newsroom sources, which explores how: 'The field's strength has waned 10 percent to 15 percent so far and this deterioration has accelerated of late, increasing debate over whether it portends a reversal of the lines of magnetic force that normally envelop the earth.'

Broad explains: 'During a reversal, the main field weakens, almost vanishes, and then reappears with opposite polarity. Afterward, compass needles that normally point north would point south, and during the thousands of years of transition much in the heavens and Earth would go askew.'

Broad claims: 'A reversal could knock out power grids, hurt astronauts and satellites, widen atmospheric ozone holes, send polar auroras flashing to the equator and confuse birds, fish and migratory animals that rely on the steadiness of the magnetic field as a navigation aid.'"
This is what is going through my head tonight...

Words I live by....

Promise Yourself

Promise yourself to be so strong that nothing can
disturb your peace of mind. To talk health, happiness
and prosperity to every person you meet. To make all
your friends feel that there is something in them.
To look at the sunny side of everything and make
your optimism come true. To think only of the best,
to work only for the best, and expect only the best.
To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others
as you are about your own. To forget the mistakes of
the past and press on to greater achievements of the
future. To wear a cheerful countenance at all times
and give every living creature you meet a smile. To
give so much time to the improvement of yourself
that you have no time to criticize others. To be too
large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear
and too happy to permit the presence of trouble.

Court: fence violates int'l law, must be dismantled

By Aluf Benn, Haaretz Correspondent

"The International Court of Justice will rule on Friday that the separation fence contravenes international law, that it must be dismantled, and that compensation must be paid to the Palestinian owners of property confiscated for its construction, according to documents obtained by Haaretz.

"The International Court of Justice will rule on Friday that the separation fence contravenes international law, that it must be dismantled, and that compensation must be paid to the Palestinian owners of property confiscated for its construction, according to documents obtained by Haaretz.

"Most of the justices believed that in building the fence, Israel violated international humanitarian law, by infringing on Palestinians' freedom of movement, freedom to seek employment, education and health. Israel violated international treaties it had signed which deal with these topics, the ruling states."

Israel has a right to exist and has the right to do whatever it has to do to protect itself from the crazy Palestinians. An integral part of the Israel/Palestinian peace process is for the Palestinians to behave themselves in accordance to world norms and go beyond throwing rocks at the Israelis....and not actively recruiting homicide bombers. Israel has done everything to employ Palestinians...and Israel is constantly having its security being threatened.

The situation is no difference in Latvia where the former Russian occupiers continue to harrangue and interfere in the affairs of the legitimate Latvian (Baltic) republics.
