Bob Barr Says U.S. Must Cut United Nations Role and Budget
2008-06-26 19:19:00 Bob Barr Says U.S. Must Cut United Nations Role and BudgetOn this day in 1945 the U.S. and other countries signed the United Nations Charter. Unfortunately, “the UN has been an enormous disappointment,” says Libertarian Party presidential candidate Bob Barr. “The U.S. should push to roll back the UN’s functions and slash America ’s financial contribution.”Expectations for the UN initially were high: before the signing, President Harry S. Truman said “At no time in history has there been a more important Conference than this one.” Obviously, “President Truman had no sense of history,” notes Barr. “ America ’s constitutional convention always had a much better claim to that honor.”Nor was President Truman much of a prophet. “The United Nations has turned out far different than expected,” says Barr. The budget is bloated. “The UN has become a huge, bloated and costly bureaucracy, constantly seeking ways to ...
The Role of the Underdog
2008-06-11 00:20:00 Every sport aside FBS college football has a true champion crowned at the end of the season. Sometimes the champion crowned is exactly who everyone figures it will be. During the 1990?s the Chicago Bulls were as sure a bet as anyone could make during their six championship runs. On the other hand sometimes the favorite is upset in monumental fashion. During the 2007-2008 Super Bowl we as a nation were able to watch one of the bigger upsets in history as the New York Giants knocked off the undefeated New England Patriots. Sure there are fans out there that picked the Giants to win the Super Bowl, but the Patriots were overwhelming favorites prior to the startof the game. I realize none of this directly has to do with the college world series unless you take a look deeper into what I am trying to say. This weekend Fresno State will compete in their first college world series in seventeen years as heavy underdogs. As an underdog Fresno State has done the job over the past two w...

Apparently, she dubs herself the “teen president” and vows that she’ll never stoop low and succumb to pressure by the industry to act more sexually mature than she really is.She says,“Kids can’t look up to girls who are trying to be growner than they are,” she says. “And if you know there are a lot of teenage girls having babies, why would you want to be in a video half-naked at 17 or 18? I don’t get it.”

Chillar's role on the team
2008-06-04 13:01:00 Through the first several Organized Team Activity (OTA) practices, Brady Poppina remains the starting strong side linebacker for the Green Bay Packers with new free agent pickup Brandon Chillar as the backup.It's still early, and it's possible that Chillar could push for a starting job by September, but head coach Mike McCarthy seems set on having Chillar serve a very particular role for the Packers for the time being."Chillar gives us excellent flexibility," McCarthy told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. "He can line up in all three positions, and by the time we're finished with our spring football here, he'll be able to play all three positions. He'll be part of the sub-packages, sub-personnel. Very athletic, and he definitely can run, and you have to be able to run at the linebacker position in our scheme. Really I like his work ethic. He came in from day one, jumped right into the off-season program, didn't miss a beat, and he's really done a very nice job of fitting in he...

"You Ask...I Answer" - What Role Does A Spouse Play in Going Solo?
2008-05-29 10:23:00 Question: Let me start by introducing myself to you. I am a paralegal student. I love your weblog and it has truly been a source of inspiration to me. My husband is an attorney. I came to the United States as a student from India, completed my Masters in Computer Sciences, worked for roughly 2 years in the software industry until last fall and now I am enrolled in the paralegal program due to a keen interest in law and thanks to my husband's encouragement that I could potentially be a lawyer myself. We got married last year. He moved to my part of the country to be with me while I finish my paralegal degree, but now we intend to move back where he is from and hang a shingle. I come from a family of entrepreneurs and the idea of a solo practice is very appealing to me as well (my aunt in India has been a succesful solo practitioner for many years). I am also currently doing some IT-related work as I finish my paralegal certificate program part-time. However we hope to be able to ...

Cameron Diaz loses her crowning glory for new film role
2008-05-24 08:53:00 Cameron Diaz's blonde locks are as integral to her sun-kissed beauty as her radiant smile and seductive green eyes. The actress showed that even losing her crowning glory couldn't diminish her silver screen glamour, though, as she went 'bald' for her new flick. The There's Something About Mary star was sporting the new look on the set of My Sister's Keeper - which also stars Alec Baldwin and 12-year-old Little Miss Sunshine actress Abigail Breslin. Those who prefer Cameron with a full head of hair needn't worry; her new look isn't the result of a shaved head. The actress' trademark tresses were hidden under a close-fitting make-up prosthesis in preparation for filming in Santa Monica.

Since it is an action role, Dia has been doing regular work-out for last few...
