		<description><![CDATA[Potential plan to lead an attack on Cuba based on false eviddence presented by the U.S.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In 1962 The American Department of Defense and the Joints Chiefs of Staff came up with a document that would potentially bring the U.S. into war with Cuba. The plans involved having undercover CIA operatives, posed as Cuban soldiers,&nbsp;commit acts of terrorism on innocent American citizens to inflict anger into the&nbsp;people and create a reason to go to war. Kennedy&nbsp;rejected the proposed plans and fired the lead planners.&nbsp;The document&nbsp;was kept&nbsp;secret all the way up until November 8, 1997 by the John F. Kennedy Records Review board. The document contained outrageous plans such as&nbsp;blowing up&nbsp;an American ship, holding mock funerals, and carrying out fake Cuban invasions.

		<description><![CDATA[A review of an article published in the may 31st 1997 edition of the New Zealand Listener which discusses the morality of legalising euthanasia.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The article &lsquo;life and Death Situations&rsquo;, written by Denis Welch and published in the May 31st &ndash; June 6th edition of the New Zealand Listener, looks at the ongoing debate concerning legalising euthanasia by providing the reader with information about a paralysed man who is desperate to die, and die legally.</p>
<p>One thing I liked about this article is how unbiased it is. Unlike many writers, Denis Welch doesn&rsquo;t focus on one aspect concerning the debate of legalised euthanasia. The reader isn&rsquo;t given one point of view, but the point of view of the whole spectrum of people, including religious groups, political groups and human rights activists. Although the main focus of the article is of Fred Robinson, a tetraplegic who is desperate for euthanasia to become legal so he can die, it doesn&rsquo;t give the reader a sense of bias. The story is only there to emphasise what its like to want to die, not to try and change the readers&rsquo; point of views regarding the debate. The fact that this article is free from bias helps the reader choose there own side of the debate from the unbiased information given which, in my opinion, is a very good quality in an article.</p>
<p>Another thing I liked about this article was the insight it gave me as a reader. The article shows readers what its like to want to die. The main focus of the article is about Fred Robinson, a tetraplegic who desperately wants to die through the use of euthanasia. The article explores his life living in a confined hospital room in Christchurch and his past, how he got this way and what he&rsquo;s done to try and die. Before I read this article I didn&rsquo;t&nbsp; know what it was like to live in pain wishing to die, but this article helped me understand why people desperately want euthanasia.</p>
<p>In conclusion, this article was a good one because it was free from bias by providing information from all sides of the debate concerning legalising euthanasia. Another good thing about this article was the amount of information given to help the reader understand peoples point of views. Overall this article was very well done.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Brief trip in the eventful life of Princess Diana.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A dazed Britain received the shocking news at 4:41 a.m. on the Sunday of 31st August 1997, their beloved princess, Diana, Princess of Wales, had tragically died in a ghastly car crash in Paris.&nbsp; Not just in Britain , but all over the orb, people were joined in a vast sense of sadness.&nbsp; As homage to this distinctive and inimitable Queen of Hearts, teddy bears and warm notes were placed at improvised memorials throughout the world.</p>
<p><a href="http://commons.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Alma_tunnel_Paris.jpg" target="_blank"><br /></a></p>
<h3><strong>Childhood Days</strong></h3>
<p>Lady Diana Frances Spencer&rsquo;s birth took place on July 1st 1961, at Park House, Sandringham .&nbsp; She was the third daughter of Viscount Althorp &#8211; who afterwards became known as Earl Spencer) and his wife Frances.&nbsp; At eight years old, Diana entered Riddlesworth Hall prep school and later on went with her two elder sisters to West Heath school in Sevenoaks.&nbsp; After a short spell at a finishing school in Switzerland , she came back in Britain and got a job as a kindergarten teacher: one which conferred her all-time love for children.</p>
<h3><strong>The Engagement </strong></h3>
<p>As a child, Diana knew Princes Andrew and Edward though she only actually got to be acquainted with Charles when he came to a shooting party at her family home when she was sixteen.</p>
<p>For the subsequent few years, Diana and Prince Charles were seen spending much time together and their feelings for one another began to grow deeper.&nbsp; On February 24 1981, the couple declared their engagement to an eager nation.</p>
<h3><strong>The Royal Wedding in St Paul&rsquo;s Cathedral</strong></h3>
<p>On the 29th of July 1981, above 700 million individuals all over the world viewed the wedding of the decade on television.&nbsp; They looked in joy as the glowing bride walked down the passageway of St Paul &rsquo;s Cathedral to tie the knot to her prince.</p>
<p>[http://www.royalanecdotes.com/wp-content/Dianawedding.jpg]</p>
<p>Wearing a dress of ivory silk taffeta with a 25ft train embellished with beads and with diamonds glistening in her hair, Diana was every inch the fairytale princess.&nbsp; This attractive young lady has not just captured the heart of Prince Charles, but the hearts of a whole population.&nbsp; Diana was the first English woman to marry a successor to the throne in more than 300 years and the inhabitants of Britain rejoiced by giving street parties in admiration of the pair who should one day be the King and Queen of their nation state.</p>
<h3><strong>Motherhood Experience</strong></h3>
<p>On 21st June 1982, some days before her 21st birthday, Princess Diana had her first baby boy, Prince William, in St Mary&rsquo;s Hospital, Paddington.&nbsp; The entire state shared the couple&rsquo;s clear happiness and satisfaction.&nbsp; Two years afterward the family unit was complete upon the arrival of their second child, Prince Henry, lovingly called Harry.</p>
<p>&nbsp;[http://www.theroyalforums.com/ugala/forums/images/avatars/diana-kids-b.jpg]</p>
<h3><strong>The Ideal Family</strong></h3>
<p>Nothing gave Princess Diana added contentment than spending time with her offspring and she was firm in her resolve that her two sons should have as usual an upbringing as was feasible.&nbsp; Diana took pleasure in taking them to burger bars and the cinema but William and Harry in addition went together with her when she visited old people&rsquo;s homes, AIDs patients and the homeless as the princess believed that it was essential that they realized the troubles and fears of real people.</p>
<p>Diana was the first royal ever to bring her kids to a theme park and she persisted that they queue for the rides with the other children.</p>
<h3><strong>As Fashion Idol</strong></h3>
<p>The world observed, as over the years, the bashful young nursery teacher bloomed into a self-assured and stylish princess.&nbsp; She made a look for herself that was chic and majestic, yet simultaneously very contemporary.&nbsp; Princess Diana became popular for her stunning sense of fashion and millions of women throughout the globe attempted to imitate her look.</p>
<h3><strong>The Public&rsquo;s Princess</strong></h3>
<p>Perhaps Diana&rsquo;s best endowment was the profound love she felt for normal persons.&nbsp; She altered people&rsquo;s existence by offering them optimism and nerve and worked untiringly for the unwell and deprived.&nbsp; She conveyed a twinkle of hope into the hearts of those who had nothing, she comforted the souls of the disadvantaged and her unlimited kindness encouraged and soothed people from all walks of life.&nbsp; Princess Diana broke through fences of class, race, colour and religion to turn out to be a Queen of people&rsquo;s hearts.</p>

<h3><strong>Meeting Well-Known Faces</strong></h3>
<p>Due to her elevated public profile, Princess Diana met many famous persons; world leaders, politicians, pop stars, fashion designers, princesses and TV personalities, and she struck out deep friendship with several of them.&nbsp; Besides, she made friends with many of the children who she met in hospitals as well and kept contact with them via birthday and Christmas cards, personal letters and telephone calls.</p>

<h3><strong>Amending the Earth</strong></h3>
<p>Princess Diana embraced the sick, the underprivileged, the famished and the injured and with this simple gesture she did more to rise above public discrimination than numerous government movements.&nbsp; When Diana spoke out about sensitive issues such as AIDs, leprosy, and landmines, the community paid attention.</p>
<h3><strong>A Playful Princess </strong></h3>
<p>Diana was a contemporary princess in-out who loved pop music, watching ballet, eating comfortable meals with her friends, shopping and sunny holidays overseas.&nbsp; She teased journalists, played sensible jokes, loved throwing parties and had fun mimicking.&nbsp; Princess Diana inhaled new life into the Royal Family and her sense of enjoyment enchanted and appealed &nbsp;to every one who met her.</p>
<h3><strong>Official Events</strong></h3>
<p>In all places she went, be it a charity ball, a fund-raising occasion for one of the charities she sustained, a ballet or a pop concert, Diana at all times looked gorgeous and well-dressed.&nbsp; She sold several of her ball gowns and cocktail dresses and raised almost two million pound sterling for her preferred charities such as the Royal Marsden   Hospital Cancer Fund and AIDs Crisis Trust.</p>

<h3><strong>The Diana We Will Never-Ever Forget</strong></h3>
<p>Princess Diana touched the lives of so many individuals all through the planet.&nbsp; With a smile, a handshake or a nice word, she put people comfortable and her kindness and sympathy lit up the lives of everyone she met.&nbsp; She will stay in our hearts forever.</p>
