	        <title> A Few Things Parents Should Know About Tamiflu</title> 
	        <description><![CDATA[Several weeks ago, I had a "personal experience" with a young teen being diagnosed with H1N1 aka "swine flu" by his pediatrician.  The antibiotic Tamiflu was prescribed for treatment of the H1N1 flu.  

This writing is to alert parents to educate themselves about Tamiflu in the treatment of the H1N1 flu -- especially as it relates to children and make a competent decision with your pediatrician before filling that prescription -- weighing out what is safe for your child or loved one.

	        <title> The War on Terror Does Not Exist</title> 
	        <description><![CDATA[The “War on Terror” does not exist. It never has. We only perceive the West’s current conflict, against Islamic Fundamentalism, as a “war on terror” because it has been framed as such.

Let us start with the terminology. The very concept of a “war on terror” is nonsensical and self-contradictory. War, itself, is terrorism.

	        <title> A Fish Story </title> 
	        <description><![CDATA[Historically the Pacific Northwest of North America has been one of those spots in the world where food is usually always abundant. The sea along its coast has always been a good provider, and the most important gift that that sea has offered up is the Pacific salmon that once filled its rivers and streams from far west of Alaska to Central California. That is changing.

This year the return of Sockeye to the Fraser River collapsed and finally the Canadian government is ordering judicial inquiry into why this happened.

	        <title> Could Obama's Apparent Surrender to the Zionist Lobby Turn out to be Good for Justice and Peace?</title> 
	        <description><![CDATA[I’m quite strongly inclined to the view that the answer is “No”, but the question is still worth asking. It was triggered in my mind by a phrase in the introduction to the lead story of the BBC’s World Service (Radio) news bulletins late on 17 November and early the following morning. 

The story was the Obama’s administration’s “dismay” at Israel’s decision to approve 900 new homes in occupied Arab East Jerusalem “in defiance of world opinion”.

If moral and legislative laws are two different things, then the possibility arises that they can be in conflict. If the moral and the legislative law come into conflict, then you are faced with a choice of which to follow.
