Where's Qaddafi and Who Are These Rebels?

Submitted by ub on

Where is the world is Moamamar? Who are these rebels?

In 1999, Qaddafi escaped judgment by turning over two underlings to pay for his criminal murder of 270 innocent people eleven years earlier in 1988.

In 1988 Qaddafi murdered all 243 passengers and 16 crew members on Pan Am Flight 103, which he had bombed. In addition he killed Eleven people in Lockerbie, Scotland, who died as large sections of the plane fell on the town and destroyed several houses.

It would have been nice if NATO had taken Qaddafi out back in 1988, or even in 1999.

NOBODY LIKES BUSY BODIES

They can be fat, skinny, tall, short, young, old, male, female, clerk or senior manager, busybodies come in all shapes, sizes, industries and job titles. That's part of their skill.

Busybodies aren't always easy to identify at first, and before you know it they've become our confidants who know everything about us. They can then make life unpleasant when they decide to use their knowledge to get their way or just to spread rumors.

Individuals who are regularly stressed out by inconsiderate people around the are more likely to keep that stress with them. and pass it on to whoever is unfortunate enough to be near them.

People who experience such incivility keep the stress, negative emotion and perceived ostracism that results from those experiences, which then affects more than their daily lives – it also creates problems for their health and their well being.

ARE WE WHAT WE CONSUME?

Submitted by ub on

There is a notion that to stay fit and healthy we need to consume good food and content.

This phrase has come to us via quite a tortuous route. Anthelme Brillat-Savarin wrote, in Physiologie du Gout, ou Meditations de Gastronomie Transcendante, 1826: Tell me what you eat and I will tell you what you are.

In an essay entitled Concerning Spiritualism and Materialism, 1863/4, Ludwig Andreas Feuerbach wrote: 'man is what he eats'.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

Following the Arab Spring of 2011, which brought down Mubarak in Egypt, US seemed to outsource much of our Syria political policy to the ancient capital city of Ankara, Turkey.
But now that all our efforts have proven unable, or incapable of convincing that Syrian dictator to adopt reforms, Americans must insist that our leaders formulate solid plans for that entire region.

By:WRN208

The price of Gold (the metal) has soared. City Island Gold (the honey) has soared as well. It has soared through the air of City Island in the form of bees collecting nectar for that delicious end product known as City Island Gold.

In case you are not familiar with City Island Gold, it is produced and sold locally at merchants such as Kaleidoscope at the corner of City Island Avenue and Hawkins Street. So if you are in the mood for a sweet, natural treat pick up a jar or two and enjoy the nectar of the bees without getting stung.
