American Opinion
OLD CHATHAM, N.Y. -- Alfred Nobel, the inventor of dynamite, was big on explosions. And the Committee that bears his name loves them as well. It set one off in Oslo on Saturday by awarding its Peace Prize to Dr. Mohamed El-Baradei and his International Atomic Energy Agency - and burying the Bush Administration in the fallout. Through the Bushies' lens, this was never supposed to happen. El-Baradei should have been out of the IAEA at the end of last year, when his second term expired. Instead, he was unanimously elected to a third term as the organization's Director General. The Egyptian-born diplomat and lawyer survived a relentless assault by the Bush Administration, led by our now-Ambassador to the United Nations, John Bolton, and bolstered by the "mushroom cloud" rhetoric of Dick Cheney and Condi Rice.
Two Options For Pat Riley, Shaquille O’Neal, Dwyane Wade, & 1-6 ...
O'Neal's game has bottomed-out, while Wade has struggled with injuries. Right now, the Heat can go in two directions:Option one: They wave the white flag of surrender and rebuild. Wade is the centerpiece, Shaq is kept as elder statesman, and everybody else is expendable. Instead of bringing in another crop of stop-gap veterans, the club commits to developing fresh talent. This would mark a change in their win-now philosophy.Option two: Wade alters his style to avoid injury and Miami re-tools on the fly. A new batch of experienced players are brought-in. This approach has worked before. In the early nineties, after a few playoff failures, the Seattle Sonics changed the supporting cast around Gary Payton and Shawn Kemp and were eventually rewarded with two trips to the NBA Finals.Miami must do something.
Norrona visit is a big boost
"However the final number was 935 passengers so it has more than exceeded people's expectations. The trip has been a huge success for the company." Mr Paterson is hoping that the huge vessel will return to the town soon, saying: "We are hopeful that the Norrona may return in Easter. Shopping trips are only organised when Smyril-Line have a space available, and historically they tend to have one around Easter. "The trip to Peterhead outsold a similar trip to London which the company organised this year so we are quietly confident that a return may be on the cards." The 166 metre long Torshavn-registered MV Norrona cruise ferry, arrived in the Blue Toon on Tuesday, December 20. Its passengers were taken on a bus tour to see the sights of the North-east, in addition to doing a spot of Christmas shopping both in local shops and in Aberdeen.
The Weedpatch Gazette
The leaders of nations act and sound like lunatics, and if you have ever visited an insane asylum, by whatever euphemism, you will have witnessed behavior that makes your skin crawl and the word "spooky" is appropriate. This is now the case with world leaders; some seeming to be afflicted with such madness to the point of Hannibal Lecter though lacking his brilliance. With the recent news about another man being quarantined for carrying a deadly strain of TB and the thought of all of us eventually being required to wear surgical masks everywhere we go, things are spiraling out of control to the point where we have passed from alarm over so much bad news to the spooky stage. Now spooky is not a term one usually associates with clinical psychology and serious discussions about current affairs, however it is one that suggests itself when considering some manifestations of human behavior.
