Introduction   Africa’s rise to prominence in the geopolitics of the 21st century is explained largely by the renewal of great power interest in the region of the world once dismissed as the “forgotten continent.” This great power concern reproduces the same power-play which is reminiscent of the Cold War when inter-locking and overlapping interests of great [...]

I really don’t know whether you folks out there are ready to view the following 57-minute video. This is big, probably too big for Malaysians to chew since you are all bent on banging Islam, the Malay community, UMNO or Barisan Nasional at the moment. You folks might ridicule me for this but I really don’t care because I know, we Muslims know that it is true.You think this is nonsense? :-)Go ahead folks, ask Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, ask Najib, ask Mahathir and while I’m at it, go and ask Anwar Ibrahim about this. They should know. :-)Once again, I call upon all Muslims and Malays here in Malaysia to stop fighting with each other.

Camp Bondsteel and America’s plans to control Caspian oilCamp Bondsteel, the biggest “from scratch” foreign US military base since the Vietnam War is near completion in the Yugoslav province of Kosovo. It is located close to vital oil pipelines and energy corridors presently under construction, such as the US sponsored Trans-Balkan oil pipeline. As a result defence contractors—in particular Halliburton Oil subsidiary Brown & Root Services—are making a fortune. In June 1999, in the immediate aftermath of the bombing of Yugoslavia, US forces seized 1,000 acres of farmland in southeast Kosovo at Uresevic, near the Macedonian border, and began the construction of a camp. Camp Bondsteel is known as the “grand dame” in a network of US bases running both sides of the border be

Dinner at Americas in Houston, my second time here. The day was unusually windy and chilly, and since I was staying at the Hilton Post Oak, the only place I dared venture out for dinner was this restaurant right across the street. The entire block here is being reconstructed and only Hermes of Paris and Americas are open in this block. Americas is the place to go for fine South American dining. The place has a funky interior, very unlike Churrascos which I had reviewed in my previous visit to this city, and which shares the same owners! I ordered a glass of La Crema Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir with my starter, a Peruvian style Ceviche that contained sushi grade seafood served in a carved pineapple. The ceviche was very fresh and tangy and went very well with the wine.I ordered Churrasco for my entree, an 8 oz medium-rare beef tenderloin; the meat was most tender and flavorful.I ended my dinner with the The Original Tres Leches, a cake soaked in three kinds of milk. So moist, so wonderful!

Remember Nintendo? The original, I mean. I remember when it first came out, it was THE THING. Everybody had to get one. If you weren't playing Nintendo, you were behind the times, man. But now, what has happened? Are games and game systems still that important? I'd say yes if you're a gamer, but no if you're not. If you're heavy into video games, then of course the newest, coolest system is where it's at. But Nintendo broke down barriers when it came onto the market. Are there systems that still do that? Sega Genesis came out, and it was a competitor. It took things to the next level, but it wasn't amazing the way the Nintendo was. The NES was outstanding because there wasn't really anything like it (if you weren't into Atari). So all the systems that came after it were really just upgrades, but not earth-shatteringly new, completely unique, never-seen-before inventions. Even the X-Box and PS3 seem just like faster, cleaner, mo

A new world record was set on 28th September with a bottle of Bowmore selling at auction for a remarkable £29,400.The bottle of single malt is the oldest Bowmore known to be in existence and is believed to have been bottled on Islay around 1850 by W & J Mutter. It was being sold on behalf of a private owner during the fine and rare whisky wine and port auction held at McTears auctioneers in Glasgow. Purchased by an anonymous telephone bidder the lot was expected to fetch £15,000 - £20,000, and the crowd burst into applause on completion of the sale. The hand blown pale green glass bottle and original cardboard carton in which it has been stored had been in good condition until one week before the sale when the delicate driven cork had dropped from the neck of the bottle into the whisky itself - leaving this extremely rare bottle requiring some renovation for the lucky purchaser. Morrison Bowmore Distillers ltd, attempted to buy the bottle and Bowmore brand director Glen Moore, who l

Either from The Left or The Right, it's not uncommon to hear people dishing out conspiracy theories involving a one world government, and whether it be controlled by Freemasons, members of the Illuminati, or International Zionofascists, the theme is consistent - TOTALITARIANISM. Is there a chance of this ever happening? Well, in a very scary and realistic tone I

Dozens of years ago, financial consultants invented the zero coupon bond. “Normal” bonds, like stock, earn the holder payments, often annual. When government consultants, ages ago, thought how to cut the government’s expenses in their obligation to send dividends -bond payments to bond holders– one of these “paper creators” invented a new type of bond; zero coupon. Instead of a bond paying monthly, quarterly or even annually, this type of bond is sold without any attached coupons so that holder need send nothing in to the gov to earn one’s annual payment. Also, with a zero coupon bond, the cost is significantly less than a coupon bond–about 12% of its face. Zeros have different due dates with 25 yrs being fairly common. NOW, if one had both a financial hardship while paying a mortgage and a relationship with their banker [the banker owned the bank or an intimate financial relationship existed], the debtor should be able to convin

The SideQuest Studios team took the time to post up a new update on the official Soldner-X website. Though this week's update is relatively small, the latest batch of screenshots revealed on the media page contain the first look of the second world in the Soldner-X game. According to the game's official website, world 2 is called Industrial Menace, and will be an underground world filled with tactical traps, barricades, mines, lasers, and enemies all wanting to see your ship destroyed. At first glance, I'm already getting the feeling that narrow corridors and falling ceilings may be the norm in world 2. Anyone familiar with the tight spaces in Gradius should feel right at home in Industrial Menace.There were a few other details revealed with this week's update on the website. Some of the items that were revealed during the last update had a redesign, and two of the ??? items were revealed as being a Score X2 multiplier pick up and a Weapon Cooler (presumably to slow down the o

This one goes out to Tom...The Roots are, arguably, the most successful hip-hop group of the past decade. They have some turn over of band members over the years, for a variety of reasons, but they're currently working on their 10th album - a significant achievement for any group in any genre. Their music has been consistently innovative, interesting and intelligent, despite, and in opposition to, the bootification of hip-hop pushed by the industry.I recently gave a lecture on hip-hop music and culture as part of this Masters' module. The students were largely a bit schtum, but they responded really well when I showed them What They Do, taken from Illadelph Halflife. They had not considered, it seems, that within the hip-hop community itself there is a small but nonetheless significant number of people who oppose and criticise the modern day minstrel show that hip-hop has sadly been reduced to. The Roots are a key part of this critique, showing what hip-hop can be when creativity is

As predicted last week, Andy Murray has moved up again to a career-high of 8 - his target position for the end of the 2007 tennis season. Maintaining that position until the Shanghai Masters comes round will be tough, but definitely achievable.The change in ranking occurred because James Blake didn't enter the Stella Artois (Queens) tournament and so failed to defend the points he picked up by reaching the final back in 2006.This places Murray 10 points above James Blake - enough to secure 8th place. Andy Murray is now just 115 points behind Tommy Robredo who lies in seventh position.It may seem strange to some that Murray can move up the rankings without playing, but it's worth noting that the ranking position is a snapshot of the last 12 months - a long time in tennis. For that reason, the rankings usually take a while to catch up with the current form of the players.Murray didn't move up the rankings because he was injured. He moved up the rankings because of a strong showing at

One of my new favorite pastimes is checking out conspiracy theories and trying to approve or disapprove them... Yes, I know most of you understand that I do have strange interests. But, I happen to be a nerd, and quite proud of it, actually.

While studying it though, One thing kept jumping out at me....Let me back up for a minute.New World Order in a nutshell:The theory is there are "interest" groups who are molding the world structure into one. Essentially, one currency, one Government for this planet.Ok, back to the ONE thing that keeps running through my head as I read various articles on this. I am going to go out on a limb here and assume the majority of you are at least somewhat familiar with Biblical beliefs. If you a

The New World Symphony will be performing Stravinsky's Pétrouchka with Michael Tilson Thomas this Sunday at 4:30 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time. Here is some more information on this event from the NWS website: On Sunday, April 29 at 4:30PM EDT, the New World Symphony, America’s Orchestral Academy, will webcast a performance Igor Stravinsky’s Pétrouchka live from the Lincoln Theatre on Miami Beach.

Christian News,Jan. 30, 1995: This book is considered a classic without peer by many authorities in the field. It exposes the interface between New Age thought and the move towards a New World Order.

I played Risk as a kid. It's never a good idea to fight a war on two fronts. But that's what winemakers are doing. They're fighting for our taste buds and our minds. And in the quest for our minds, New Worlders are winning. Why? In a word: marketing. And that's where Old Worlders have fallen behind. For too long, they didn't play the game. They didn't embrace the global marketplace with a big, wide bear hug. They didn't think they needed to. They were wrong. I get this. People want at-a-glance labels, suggested pairings, critters, playful names and specified grapes. They don't want micro appellations, regular-size appellations or any appellation, for that matter. They want wine. Just wine. So many people don't really care where it comes from or about the traditions and geography behind it. The German wine industry has taken this so much to heart that it's changing the name of one of its wine regions (they've done this before). The Mosel-Saar-Ruwer appellation will most

I'm in the mood for a throw-down. No more of this namby-pamby dancing around the ring. A couple of weeks ago, I got slammed on the ropes for a comment I made about a post on Vinography. The winos over there are apparently pretty fond of their New World wines because, when I suggested that Old World wines might be suffering in the global marketplace because of what is simply an archaic (or nonexistent?) approach to marketing, damn. You'd have thought I said something about their mother."Absurd!" they said. "Wine that tastes like fruit, not boxes of cigars and pencil lead, appeals to US consumers," they proclaimed.Hmmm.I'm a U.S. consumer, and I'm a pretty even-handed gal. I like New World wines; I like Old World wines. I was trying to make a point about what I considered to be the glaring difference in the marketplace. I was trying to make that point independent of taste, because I tend to believe there's a place out there for both styles of wine. But then I started to think about

In the Introduction to an important new book by J. Budziszewski that engages four distinct traditions of evangelical political thought, Michael Cromartie observes: "While appreciative of the contributions of each of these thinkers [Carl Henry, Abraham Kuyper, Francis Schaeffer, and John Howard Yoder], Budziszewski finds fault with each, to a greater or lesser degree, for failing to develop a systematic political theory as compelling as those offered by the secularist establishment. He suggests that evangelical political thought would be improved if it were informed by the tradition of natural law" I couldn't agree more. But I'd like to take this a step further, or, at the very least, in a slightly different direction, and one that I'm sure Budziszewski would also find complementary: evangelical bioethical thought.There are some very good people and organizations at work in this field already, but, as with Protestant natural law thinking in general, evangelicals as a group mu
