Movie Review: The French Connection ? Blu-ray Disc
2009-02-22 23:29:00
A good action movie is hard to find.  That?s undeniable.  It needs more than sweet special effects and stuff blowing up and bullets and more explosions (hint, hint, Michael Bay).  There needs to be a story which draws you in, a struggle between good and evil, characters which feel real and involve you personally.  Of ...

By Selwyn Duke It’s hard to shock a man living in a planetary insane asylum, so it doesn’t raise my eyebrows when I watch a people commit suicide. Nevertheless, I had to shake my head when I read about how Barack Obama’s election has inspired France to consider affirmative-action policies to combat their dreaded “white ...

When Will the French Demonstrate Against the Escalating Food & Gas Prices?
2008-05-27 21:23:00
For a country that is King of demonstrating against injustices inflicted on its people, I honestly don’t know why no one has done anything about the unreasonably high food prices, and now, gas prices. The fleecing of France by merchants charging exorbitant food costs began 6 years ago with the introduction of the euro. ...

I think I know why the French revolted and chopped off the heads of the ruling class.Our political system is just so convoluted that I think it should be redone. Forget the delegates, expensive campaigning and year-long ordeal--just vote for the one you want. I know it would have to be more detailed than that, but that is the general idea.
The French Baby Boom - A Bomb waiting to Explode
2008-05-03 18:14:00
France956 (Grande Mosquée de Paris) Photo by: tehelkaThe Website EURSOC (News and Comment from Europe) noted in its article Baby Boom A La Française that France now has the highest fertility rate in the European Union and that it is estimated that the current trend will increase the population of France from 60.7 million today to 70 million by 2050. That extra 10 million may sound nice, but as I warned in The Sunset of Christianity, "Muslims within Europe have a birthrate twice that of Christians." The EURSOC article itself points out that "French families have a birth rate of 1.8 (still very high, for Europe); for North African women the figure is 3.25, for African 4.07, for Turks 3.35, And Asians 2.83." If I told you that the bare replacement rate is 2.0, then you shouldn't need a degree in statistics to realize that the 10 million increase in population will not be in French families. By 2050 France will not be a country filled with French but by Muslims who won't even b...

The French Connection
2008-03-31 09:19:00
Filipino workers who dream of one day saying Oui, mademoiselle, Oui mossieur, or those imagining to drink that uppity and classy Bordeaux wines, or perhaps salivating on escargot as in French haute cuisine--- time to make a landing at Charles de Gaulle Airport. And start brushing up on your French. Because Paris here we come. Whopee! How you say? French Ambassador to the Philippines confirmed that France is easing up their immigration rules to accommodate more Filipino IT and nursing professionals. It’s been quite a process but finally signing of the formal agreement will happen this year between country representatives. Fact is, Filipino professionals are known to be one of the most outstanding workers worldwide. Be it an IT line of work, engineering, accountancy, customer service, the fine arts, health care I must say we are among the best. And what country wouldn’t want such type of workers? France is a country where the words, liberty, equality and fr...

The French Kill the Walk for ‘Peace’
2008-03-01 03:09:00
Freeloading Euro Backpacker Upset People Think He’s a Freeloading Euro Backpacker Much of what we do here is serious commentary on the leftist bias in this world, issues that are consequential to the debate between right and left. But, today we can sit back and have a little lighthearted fun with our lefty friends without all that worry and seriousness hovering over us like a cloud of leftist generated noxious gas. So… do ya wanna hear something funny? The Telegraph brings us the heart wrenching tale of one Mr. Mark Boyle, the man who thought he was going to backpack on foot from Bristol, England to Mahatma Gandhi’s birthplace in Porbander, India. Unfortunately, Mr. Boyle was crestfallen to have to quit this noble effort early. And we are all the poorer for it. Speaking of poorer… Mr. Boyle, who is a member of the Freeconomy Movement, wanted to do this important trek all to bring the world “peace.” So selfless, ain’t he? Yes, Boyle was c...

MAC does it the French Way
2008-02-14 17:19:00
French graffiti artist, Fafi, has teamed up with MAC Cosmetics to produce one of the most exciting collections to date. And it's finally landed at a MAC make-up counter near you!Fafi, known for her drawings of sexy and sassy girl characters , and MAC have created a line that is so bold and innovative, you'll want the entire collection (including the limited edition Fafi figurines and make-up bags) to parade around your bathroom counter.Personally, I'm obsessed with the packaging. The compacts and lipstick tubes boast original Fafi drawings... tres girly with a street edge, much like the pigments (bold pinks and purples with every hue in between).MAC's Creative Director, James Gager, says this about the collaboration:"Fafi will certainly appeal to a younger generation, but I believe the world of Fafi is one that all ages will enjoy. Everyone wants to escape into a world of fantasy and imagination, and that?s what this collection offers."And MAC's SVP of Product Development, ...

2008-02-08 14:04:00
   “Some guys have all the luck” is what can be surely said for Indian actor Shahrukh Khan famously known as King Khan in Bollywood industry he has another jewel in his bag now not that his bag is empty but now the buzz is that he is honored by French Government. Now how come he has any link with the French men any clues? Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan was Sunday night conferred the prestigious 'Insignia of Officer in the Order of Arts and Letters' by the French government. 'Entertainment is something where one cannot be selfish, as it is purely for others,' the actor said after receiving the award. He said he was in this field only to entertain the audience.

Kuyper on the French Revolution
2008-02-01 15:26:00
This again is from Abraham Kuyper's 1891 speech, The Problem of Poverty (originally titled in Dutch, Sociale vraagstuk en de Christelijke religie). His analysis and comparing and contrasting of the social ideas of Christianity and the French Revolution are imbued with a sense of timelessness. What he says of the French Revolution may just as easily be said about the West today. And, of course, our prayer may be that what he says of Christianity may also remain true today.The French Revolution, against which every Christian who thinks consistently should turn, produced its evil not so much by throwing the Bourbons from the throne, nor my making the middle class more powerful than both the nobility and the clergy, but rather by completely changing people's consciousness and view of life.In the Christian religion, authority and freedom are bound together by the deeper principle that everything in creation is subject to God. The French Revolution threw out the majesty of the Lord i...
