And China is said to be repressive towards its people! I am amazed at the cultural differences between the so called "western countries" and the rest of the world. We seem to be so far apart (at least from the official stance) from many [...]]]></description>

		<title>War and our energy policies</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I have to say I've thought about this one a bit and then went online to look up some figures - Without trying to put a price on the over 4000 US soldiers killed and 13,000 seriously wounded (or the over 500,000 Iraqis killed) we have spent over 500 Billion dollars in Iraq. That's a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Senator No (Jessie Helms) Dies</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Former Senator for North Carolina, Jessie Helms died today. For many years, this man was supposedly represented North Carolina in the US Senate. He was actually NC's longest serving Senator. His stances against anything remotely liberal (or even moderate) earned him his nickname of Senator No.

He was another one of those who believed that AIDS [...]]]></description>

The other day I mentioned having ordered a new lens. Well today I was out playing with it a bit and, while a fisheye lens wasn't appropriate for the situation, just by being there I caught a fun shot on the grounds of the NC state capitol building.lorazepam maximal doze lisinopril fosamax interactions purchase of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Earth Day?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
One would think that the 20th of January 2009 would be declared as Earth Day. After all that's the day that George W. Bush will be leaving the White House. With his denial of the existence of global warming, our president has never exactly been a friend of the environment. The problem is, I'm not [...]]]></description>

		<title>Getting what you paid for</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Over the weekend I ordered (via the Internet) a new camera lens . I want it for an upcoming trip and specified 3 day delivery for the shipping. Since the company is just a couple of states away, I figured I would likely get the package today (second day after shipping). No such luck!

The camera [...]]]></description>

		<title>The passing of a friend</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
It was his time. He was almost 16 years old and had been my dog for 14 years. I got him from the Wake county SPCA since, for whatever reason, his previous owners couldn't keep him. It was a blessing to me.

Beau really was a wonderful dog. Friendly to everyone, even cats. Like most dogs [...]]]></description>

		<title>Happy Birthday to ME</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Yes, it's that time again. It comes once a year and there is simply no avoiding it.

It's my birthday ... and it's Gabino's birthday as well. We happen to share January 28th as our common birthday. That makes it easier on the diets with just one cake to deal with.

No great plans, just dinner at [...]]]></description>

The first one I knew was coming up for 2008, it's the first in a planned series of direct to DVD movies from the StarGate series - The Ark of Truth is the title. The [...]]]></description>
