The entire country is being transformed – according to the directives given by the Neo-Nazi Abyssinian dictator Meles Zenawi to his puppet, Somaliland´s murderous tyrant Riyale – to a vast concentration camp whereby minorities are mercilessly tyrannized and terrorized. The ruling gang around the illegitimate ´president´ of the illegal country Somaliland belongs to the Isaaq tribe, and they intend to impose a subservient to Abyssinia, treacherous, and totalitarian regime, canceling (´postponing´ according to their shameful lies) the presidential elections whereby the most loathed high traitor Riyale would be rebuffed by a whopping 80% majority (composed by most of the Isaaq patriotic Somalis, and the various minorities).

This morning at the Exponential Conference, I attended a session that focused on multi-ethnic church planting. This is becoming a growing passion for me. I believe that church planting in America must embrace starting multi-ethnic churches.In today's session, George Yancey discussed several approaches to assessing churches and identifying the multiracial potential of your church.Rev. Ed Lee, pastor of Mosaic Community Covenant Church in Missouri City, Texas (mosaicpeople.org), presented a very helpful comparison of a variety of approaches to being a multi-ethnic church. The reality is that not all churches that would identify themselves as "multi-ethnic" will look the same or have the same emphasis, fundamental commitments, or motivations. I would encourage you to spend some time studying
The ethnic history of the Hawaiian Islands is thought to go back approximately to the eighth century A.D., when Polynesians in long-distance canoes made their incredible voyages over hundreds of miles of open sea, probably from the Marquesas and Society Islands, to discover and settle the archipelago. Four hundred years later, still more Polynesians came from Tahiti. When Captain Cook's ships first came upon the Islands in 1778, some 300,000 natives lived there. Seventy-five years later, after ample exposure to white man's culture and his diseases (starting with syphilis carried by men off Cook's Resolution and Discovery), only 71,000 natives remained. In 1872., the combined count of native Hawaiians and haoles (Caucasians) in the Islands was 56,897, the lowest population count on record.

What I've been wondering for some time is to what extent national borders should coincide with ethnic or religious groups. The lack of a reasonable ethnic division in Africa, for example, has probably caused or exacerbated many conflicts in the post-colonial era. But what would another way of doing it have been?Had the English or French decided to carve up their empires in a reasonably ethnic manner (as Woodrow Wilson generally believed that borders and ethnicities are meant to coincide) that would have left Africa with something like 800 tiny states. Some ethnic groups have 100,000 members. Others have 500. The ability of a state of 100,000 to simply overwhelm the tiny ethnic state might have created more instability. With ratios that skewed, you just need one twentyeth of one perce

Designing your rooms around an ethnic theme can be exciting and fun and allows you to bring elements of other cultures and distant lands into your home. You can be more daring in your approach to colour and with such a wide variety of textures and patterns available, this can collectively add a whole new dimension to your interior design project. Unusual artefacts from different cultures can work very well as focal points in a room and as there are no hard and fast rules to stick to and because there are so many variations, you can go beyond the usual or traditional to portray a style that is not only beautiful, it is unique.
So what do we mean by ethnic?
Ethnic basically means native or indigenous people from a particular area so in relation to Interior Design it means to bring the natural elements that are representative of whatever culture, land or peoples you choose to portray into your own home to define your space.

Dr. W. Earle Matory Jr. director of cosmetic surgery at the University of Massachusetts Medical Center in Worcester was quoted in a recent New York Times write-up on ethnic cosmetic surgery saying, "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and when the beholder or the beholdee is an individual of color, what is considered attractive may be different than in a Caucasian." He provided valid food for thought when he questioned the logic in Whitney Houston opting for Madonna’s nose. Would she still be as striking he asks.According to data collated by the American Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons, over 20 percent of cosmetic surgery patients were black, Asian or Hispanic in 1990. The number jumped by 65 percent from 2004 to 2005 the American Society of Plastic Surgeons pointed out.This number is held to have risen significantly with icons like Michael Jackson and his sister Janet Jackson breaking the apprehensiveness with which ethnic groups held plastic surgery procedures.

Investigative reporter Seymour Hersh told Der Spiegel that President Bush’s famous surge
is nothing more than a disguise to engage in an ethnic cleansing operation. “We have Balkanized Iraq” by building walls to separate Sunni from Shiite and Kurds from both of them. Hersh argues America under Bush deals with enemies by “Hitlerizing” them so Saddam Hussein who headed a nondescript army or Ahmadinejad who has scant control over Iranian armed forces are portrayed as capable of engaging in military operations akin to that of Adolf Hitler. The Nazi dictator controlled the most powerful army in the world which possessed the best tanks and a strong airforce. Two inept leaders whose armed forces could barely defeat a minor nation are being depicted by Bush as capable of damaging the interests of America.
Hersh casts blame on the American media for allowing Bush to sell them his pipe dreams and fail to do serious investigative studies of such things as the WMD. I
The battle waged by the Communist-ANC to ethnically cleanse Afrikaans from the so-called "New" South Africa rages on two fronts this week.On January 18 of last year, military judge Lieutenant Colonel Mbulelo Mandela allegedly referred to Afrikaans as "disgusting". The judge was quoted as saying, "... I must say it on record that to me it is disgusting that at this time and age we still find official correspondence or official communication in Afrikaans... ", because English was the official communication language of the SANDF.Then last Thursday, South African newspaper Beeld confidentially acquired an internal memo of the Tshwane Metro Council advising that it planned to replace the (name)"Pretoria" on route-and direction signs countrywide with "Tshwane".Defending the rights of Afrikaans-speaking people in both of these battles is Dr. Sydney Gregan, Deputy Leader of the Reformed National Party (HNP), founded in 1969, who speaks on the battle against the ethnic cleansing of Afrikaans fr

One of the most exciting things you can learn at a cooking school is how to cook ethnic food. Ethnic food is a delicious treat, a break from the usual fare, and most people have at least one or two favorite ethnic cuisines. Unfortunately, ethnic restaurants can be expensive, especially if you would like to enjoy your favorite ethnic food more frequently.
The solution is, of course, to learn how to make your own ethnic food. Buying an ethnic cookbook and diving right in is overwhelming for most people, however: Cookbooks do not always do a very good job of explaining how to prepare a dish, as well as what goes into it. A better approach is to take classes at a cooking school. You will learn to not only prepare your favorite ethnic food, but also all of the little tricks of the trade that will make it look and taste more authentic.
Here is a sampling of ethnic foods that you can learn to make at your local cooking school:

At Rodeo Drive Plastic Surgery, we see an-ever increasing number of patients from diverse ethnic groups.

As a cosmetic surgeon, I see this trend every day.Nationally, the trend we are seeing in Beverly Hills is being reproduced. Data shows that across the county, the number of ethnic patients who had plastic surgery -- to enhance their appearance or minimize the signs of aging through cosmetic plastic surgery -- took a substantial jump last year, with 2.3 million procedures performed – an increase of 65 percent from 2004, according to statistics released today by the national plastic surgery society. Hispanics continue to lead all ethnic groups with more than 921,000 cosmetic procedures performed, up and amazing 67 percent from 2004. Next African Americans with 769,000 procedures, up 67 percent; and Asians with 437,000 procedures, up 58 percent. These are

People of different ethnic groups often come to plastic surgeons seeking to refine the appearance of their noses. Modern Beverly Hills rhinoplasty techniques like those done at Rodeo Drive Plastic Surgery stress preservation of ethnic appearance along with overall facial balance. The nose should match the rest of the face. Ethnic rhinoplasty or nose job works to achieve this while providing the improvements and enhancements sought in the nose. Ethnic groups often tend to have certain characteristics to their noses, both in terms of their outer appearance and of their internal structures. For this reason, it is best to address the noses of various ethnic groups such as African Americans and Hispanics and Asians individually. “Cookie cutter” approaches to rhinoplasty rarely work well, and this is especially the case with non-caucasian nose surgery. There are many examples of how this individualized approach offers the best outcome in ethnic rhinoplasty. For instance, many p

For this reason, it is best to address the noses of various ethnic groups such as African Americans and Hispanics and Asians individually. “Cookie cutter” approaches to rhinoplasty rarely work well, and this is especially the case with non-caucasian nose surgery. There are many examples of how this individualized approach offers the best outcome in ethnic rhinoplasty. For instance, many people of Asian
Fear Factor host and comedian (who knew this guy told jokes?) Joe Rogan calls out Carlos Mencia, aka Ned Holness for stealing jokes and not being Mexican.I'm not sure if Mencia/Holness is actually not of Mexican heritage. Some folks report seeing an updated version of his IMDB page since the Rogan call out, which now says he is half Mexican but said he was half German, half Honduran prior to the Rogan incident.If Mencia isn't part Mexican, he's using an ethnic disguise to pander to a certain audience. Passing for profit.Who does this hurt? And who is hurt by the "stealing" of jokes? Is it even possible to copyright jokes? Perhaps it should be. Or at least whole routines. George Lopez says Mencia/Holness stole some of his act, and he ruffed him up for it.Here is the call out heard 'round the world, which took place at the Comedy Store.This call out got Rogan banned from the Comedy Store. And the banning didn't stop there.Here is a podcast of "Mencia" getting banned from The Mikey
Cross posted from Bear Creek Ledger:Well, isn't this interesting. From Freedom Folks we see a Black principal lose his job at a Chicago High School (Curie High School) because 68% of those attending this school are "Hispanic". Showdown at OK Corral (from Chicago Sun-Times):The highly rated African-American principal of Curie High School remains ousted after the new Hispanic majority on the local school council refused to reverse its vote Saturday under pressure from school and city officials. "The school is 62 percent Hispanic, and they want a Hispanic principal," Otis Davis Jr. said Saturday after he and two other LSC members who support Jones stormed out of the meeting to deprive members of a quorum. African-American supporters of Principal Jerryelyn Jones shouted, "Speak English!" at anti-Jones LSC member Maria Lopez as she addressed the crowd in Spanish. There's more so check it out. I'd say the situation in Chicago hasn't reached the level of violence as Los Angeles, but gi
I could not believe what I was learning: The descendants of Native Americans who once owned slaves and later under a federal treaty and other legalities, made the slaves and their descendants citizens in the Cherokee Nation, were stripping them of their rights. The audacity! The racism! The greed! See how the official Cherokee newspaper, The Phoenix, reported this: http://www.cherokeephoenix.org/News/News.aspx?StoryID=2480The New York Times explains some of the background to this in a Mar. 8 editorial (www.nytimes.com):“This bitter dispute dates to the treaties of 1866, when the Cherokee, Seminole and Creek agreed to admit their former slaves as tribal members in return for recognition as sovereign nations. The tribes fought black membership from the start — even though many of the former slaves were products of mixed black and Indian marriages.“The federal courts repeatedly upheld the treaties. But the federal government fanned the flames when a government commission set out in

Letter to the Editor, Daily Nation9/19/2006 As we mark the 6th anniversary of the death of Catholic priest John Kaiser this year, it is time once again to reflect on what he stood for in the fight for the respect of the rights of the internally displaced and the poor in Kenya.The Refugee Consortium of Kenya (RCK) joined other human rights organisations in remembering a man many people have praised for being outspoken in human rights advocacy. The life and times of Fr John Anthony Kaiser is a study in courage, determination and sacrifice on behalf of the weak, the oppressed and the down-trodden.He did not consider himself a civil rights activist or champion. His achievements have, however, emboldened and inspired many to love the truth, cherish liberty and fight for human rights. Fr Kaiser said he was just a simple parish priest. We agree and honour him.Kenya's transition from single-party dictatorship to multi-partyism in the 1990s was accompanied by violent conflicts dubbed the "la

By Adam Nossiter for the New York Times:
The heritage of suspicion and misery separating this city's poorest residents from its comfortable classes is playing out in a fierce battle over the future of the public housing projects here, a fight in which the shelter of as many as 20,000 people is at stake.
It has raged ever since the federal Department of Housing and Urban Development announced
From the show " The News Hour " with Jim Lehrer:"I pray that it does. But the fact is we know that it would increase the odds of it working if there were some sincere efforts to engage the other countries in the region in the diplomatic solutions that are necessary to stabilize the region, and do the political work, do the political work -- that is to say, amend the constitution, include the Sunnis and others into the civic life of Iraq. That's where you go. You don't go into ethnic cleansing of neighborhoods and say, "Now we're going to referee."
