      The Merovignian ancestry of the 2008 presidential candidates
      From: /*All in the Dragon Family <-lineage.html>*/With the presidential election proceeding as planned, the United States is as polarized as ever and, once again, many conservative Christians are under the false impression that it matters who is elected in November. This report is an effort to demonstrate in practical terms that, at this point, it makes no difference who wins the presidential election. Fears about a Bush-Clinton dynasty which could rule the United States for 28 years, or more, become even more unsettling with the discovery that /all/ of the presidential candidates belong to the same dynasty. It is called the Merovingian dynasty and it claims to have a long history, being nearly has ancient as the human race. The good news is that God destroyed this evil dynasty once

      Bahamian Businesspeople Of Haitian Ancestry Urge Bahamians To Invest In Emerging Market Haiti
      Businesspeople Urge Investment In Haiti: By Macushla N. Pinder - Nassau, Bahamas: Bahamians of Haitian descent have added their voices to those urging locals to take advantage of Haiti’s emerging market and invest in the impoverished Caribbean nation as a means of stemming the flow of illegal migration to countries like The Bahamas. One of two business proprietors of Haitian descent who accompanied the Chamber of Commerce on its recent four-day trade mission to Haiti, Odley Aretis, principal of Top Builders International, said Haiti’s construction industry is one segment that Bahamians can tap into. "This has been a real life-changing experience for me….When I saw what was happening in the construction industry in Haiti, it was really appalling. To the local contractors, we can really take advantage of the construction opportunities in Haiti," Mr. Aretis said. "Why do I say that? Port-au-Prince was designed for 150,000 people but there are presently over three million people

      Family matters: genealogy, ancestry and heritage
      How much do you know about your family? When I trained to be an ESOL teacher, one of the topics we covered was having a sense of home (a tricky thing for migrants to regain in a new country). Family plays an important role in our sense of home and identity - who we are and where we’ve come from - but when we were asked to name just one of our great-grandparents, not one person could do it. This got me thinking about where my family had come from… I knew some of the names, but did I know anything about who those people really were, what mattered to them, what their achievements had been and why they’d come to New Zealand from far-off lands? Not a chance. Yet these people are the reason I’m here today, calling myself a New Zealander and living in this peaceful, prosperous country. Try talking to your family about your heritage and ancestry, so that this knowledge won’t be lost. Plus, it’s fascinating stuff when you get into the stories of people&rsquo

      Warne retired earlier this year with 708 Test scalps to his name Australian cricket legend Shane Warne may apply for German citizenship in a bid to avoid filling Hampshire's overseas player spot.The spinner is hopeful that he may qualify for a European Union passport, which would exempt him from being classified as an overseas star, through his mother's side of the family."My Mum was German. She came over to Australia when she was, I think, four or five," the 37-year-old said."With only one overseas [player] next year, it's something we're looking at. There's been some amazing things happen here in England with people to play as locals, and all that sort of stuff, so it's something we're investigating."The rules currently state that the counties can have two overseas players on their books, but the allowance is to be halved by the start of next season as the England and Wales Cricket Board attempts to promote domestic talent.Warne is currently preparing for Ha
