The Joint Special Representative of the United Nations and the League of Arab States on the Syrian crisis, Lakhdar Brahimi, today arrived in Damascus, where he will hold talks with the Government, representatives of the opposition and members of civil society.

In a statement upon arrival in the capital city’s international airport, Mr. Brahimi said no one disagrees with the need to stop the bloodshed and restore harmony among the people in Syria.

“We came to Syria for consultation with the brotherly Syrians… There is a crisis and I think it is deteriorating,” he said.

The U.S. National Debt Crisis

The American dream is a commonly shared belief by the people of our nation, considered today as the most powerful in the world. We want to establish our family name, make them proud, and ultimately live the best life during our time on this beautiful planet. Because of this, we are never satisfied, believing tomorrow will always be better than today and spend accordingly. This is why there are many who default on credit cards; try to find the next “get rich quick scheme”, and why we elect politicians who can do the most for us regardless of the long term effect of our nation.

I was putting stuff together and looking at links, this really stuck out to me as something fun to post...mainly because this type of thing never happens. Not "normally doesn't happen", NEVER happens. Nolan Ryan was an old fart when he retired from pitching. He was 46. Buuuutttt....Roger Clemens is 50. He hasn't played in the MLB in close to 5 years.

Many media outlets recognized the 11th anniversary of 9/11 on their front pages today. But some did not. The decision raises a question: How will we all know when it’s time to stop featuring 9/11 anniversary stories on the front page?

The emotional scars, the pain, the outrage, the sense of loss may never fade. The amount of news coverage, however, must, just like it has for Pearl Harbor and other attacks. We also need to be moving forward. Often, other than many local events surrounding an anniversary, there isn’t always much to say that is original.
