Samsung Group Under Siege
2008-04-18 09:54:00
 In Samsung Group corporate lore, it was the dawn of a new era. After reading a harsh report by a Japanese adviser on the rigid and outdated management practices at South Korea’s biggest conglomerate, Chairman Lee Kun Hee summoned 100 top executives to a June 7, 1993, meeting at the baroque Kempinski Gravenbruch Hotel, a ...
Net neutrality in Canada under siege: Bell implements ?traffic shaping? ser
2008-03-31 15:02:00
Bell Canada - Canada's largest internet provider - is going ahead with its plan to undermine net neutrality. They call it ?traffic shaping? and ?traffic management?, but what it adds up to is the end of net neutrality for anyone on the Bell system. This includes Bell customers and non-Bell customers who contract with third party ISPs who use the Bell system. Bell and other Canadian ISPs such as Rogers have been ?traffic managing? for over a year, slowing some kinds of traffic down while privileging others. The data that Bell tends to target for slow down is peer-to-peer and torrent traffic. Last week, Bell applied the same ?traffic shaping? controls to its third party ISPs, service providers who use the Bell system but who are independent companies with their own clients. What this means is that Bell is screwing - not only with its own customers' data, but with the accounts of third party Internet users. Do you know whose system your ISP is using? April 7 is the date Bell...
Under Siege

Here is a quick glimpse of my vision for what will eventually be my largest piece of bead embroidery yet - an 18" wide beaded Beatles Yellow Submarine.(click image to enlarge)Undoubtedly, you remember the music-hating Blue Meanies from the original 1968 Yellow Submarine film. Well, they cannot swim, so they must hijack the beaded submarine to continue their war effort against music, art, and freedom. As they embark on their journey, the deep blue sea suddenly turns into a dark depressing gray helter skelter...
Free Markets Under Siege: Cartels, Politics, and Social Welfare by Richard
2008-02-09 08:30:00
Drawing on his extensive knowledge of history, law, and economics, Richard Epstein examines how best to regulate the interface between market choice and government intervention—and find a middle way between socialism and libertarianism. He argues the merits of competition over protectionism and reveals the negative results that ensue when political forces displace economic competition with subsidies and barriers to entry....
Minorities Under Siege: The Art of the Super Bowl Commercial
2008-02-07 06:00:00
I, Too, Sing America I, too, sing America I am the darker brother They send me to eat in the kitchen When company comes, But I laugh, And eat well And grow strong. This was one of my favorite poems growing up, not just because Langston Hughes was the only poet that we studied in depth for Black History Month, but because at ...

A Financial System under Siege
2007-11-17 15:53:00
by Rodrigue Tremblay "If these items [promised benefits in Social Security, Medicare, Veterans Administration and other entitlement programs] are factored in, the total [debt] burden in present value dollars is estimated to be about $53 trillion. Stated differently, the estimated current total burden for every American is nearly $175,000; and every day that burden becomes larger." - David Walker, comptroller general of the United States "The economic forces driving the global saving-investment balance have been unfolding over the course of the past decade, so the steepness of the recent decline in long-term dollar yields and the associated distant forward rates suggests that something more may have been at work." - Alan Greenspan, former Fed Chairman, July 20, 2005 “The subprime black hole is appearing deeper, darker and scarier than they [the banks] thought. They’ve worked through ... about 40 percent of the backlog of the leveraged loan side,...

When I was back in Saint John a few weeks ago Theresa sent me this article from Telegraph Journal called Christianity is under siege by sacraphobes. I won?t go too far into the article but I do have some thoughts. The article claims that Christians are put on the defensive with accusations of hypocrisy and alleged ...
Montebello - A Village Under Siege?
2007-08-21 19:04:00
The right to dissent is under siege!The police response to the protest against the SPP - and presumably also the government's - was nothing short of bizarre!Just to be perverse, I'm going to begin at the end today. Sophie Harkat and I were bus buddies for the Montebello trip, and as we strolled toward a restaurant so I could get a coffee and we could find a comfortable place to wait for the bus that would take us back home to Ottawa, we passed this picturesque little establishment: (All pics will enlarge if you click on them)Sophie said, "Isn't that the place the Ottawa Sun said was going to be closed and boarded up?" Turns out she was absolutely right. The Sun headline was: "A Village Under Siege".Dominique Joly plans to close up his hunting and fishing shop for a few days, but he'll be sleeping inside with a gas mask and bulletproof vest nearby in case some protests turn violent... He's already stinging from the cost of protesters slapping up anti-summit stickers along the...
Under siege ? the version without the bad acting
2007-08-16 19:04:00
This is our third night in a row in utter darkness. The worst part is that the electricity never even came on at all today to allow us to recharge anything. Our cell phone is dead and so is our back up lamp. I feel under siege and unable to do anything ...
Philadelphians Under Siege
2007-08-15 04:00:00
They call Philadelphia the birthplace of freedom, but its residents aren't very free any more. Because the city is being crippled by violence. And what they aren't telling you is that the most violent murderers, rapists and attackers are among the most free... because Philadelphia's given up. Over the last five years, the homicide rate in Philadelphia rose 36 percent, while the national rate increased only two percent. In 2005, the city witnessed 377 murders. There were 406 in 2006 and, this year,...(read more)
A Country Under Siege
2007-07-19 06:58:00
Reid said today, ?Because Republicans continue to block votes on important amendments to the Defense Authorization bill, we can make no further progress on Iraq and this bill at this time. For these reasons, I have temporarily laid aside the Defense Authorization bill and have entered a motion to reconsider.But let me be clear to my Republican colleagues ? I emphasize the word ?temporarily?. We will do everything in our power to change course in Iraq. We will do everything in our power to complete consideration of a Defense Authorization bill. We must do both.Sens. John McCain (R-AZ) and Jon Kyl (R-AZ) raced to the television cameras this afternoon to offer hyperbolic attacks against Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, following Reid?s decision to pull the entire Defense Authorization bill from consideration. McCain and Kyl were quick to dishonestly politicize Reid?s maneuver, after obstructing passage of the bill over opposition to an Iraq redeployment amendment.The Republicans hav...

By Darwaish As expected, the Military Government of Pakistan has finally lost its patience and the live coverage of CJ’s bar addresses and live talk shows have been banned from today. This means there is every chance that we won’t be able to see Live with Talat Hussain or Hamid Mir’s Capital Talk and possibly Dr. Shahid ...

Estonians Under Siege in Moscow Russia
2007-05-03 01:11:00
Rioting by ethnic Russians in Estonia in protest at that country’s removal of a World War II memorial to fallen Soviet soldiers has subsided, but not in Moscow. For the past six days, a pro-Kremlin youth movement has been blockading the Estonian Embassy, demanding that either Estonia apologize for its desecration of the memorial, or ...
Sanctuary under siege
2006-12-11 10:19:01
by Karli, disembarking the Esperanza It has been three weeks onboard the Esperanza in the Gulf of California, and as I pack up my cabin and do my laundry, it is sad to leave the ship. At the end of our time in Mexico, we are in Puerto Vallarta and it feels right. It is a symbolic place to close this chapter of Defending Our Oceans and open the next - a return to the Southern Ocean to confront the whale hunters.
Autonomy Under Siege
2006-12-02 15:35:02
The Philippine Collegian and RA 9184The Philippine Collegian bears witness to a lasting tradition of independence as a student institution. It is a publication funded solely by the students, and for years has served as a salient representation of academic freedom and democratic rights. Throughout history, UP students have vigilantly fought for the publication's autonomy from all forms of administration intervention. Once again, the Collegian's autonomy is under siege. Using Republic Act 9184 or the Government Procurement Reform Act, the UP administration since June 2006 has blocked the release of the Collegian's printing funds. According to the administration's interpretation of RA 9184, all fees collected by the university are government funds?including the Collegian's funds. Under this false assumption, the UP administration insists that the bidding and selection of the publication?s printing press be facilitated not by the Collegian editorial board, but by the administration...
