			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>hello everyone</p>
<p>natural cycle, what do i mean? well lets get right into it with the seasons</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Seasons</strong></li>
</ul>
<p>well the season are just one of our natural cycle, you may already know this but ill tell you the greater cause to why I&#8217;m sharing with you the natural cycles. the season are summer, winter, autumn and spring which come every year, am i wrong? keep reading. so these all happen at the same time every year and they will keep happening through out mine and your life time</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Years</strong></li>
</ul>
<p>years are also a natural cycle, well not really natural more universal, so a universal cycle where the world rotates around the sun, when it fully goes around we call this a year and this keeps happening in a cycle</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>(big) Solar flares</strong></li>
</ul>
<p>now I&#8217;m not just talking about the normal solar flare here and there I&#8217;m talking about the big one that goes through a 11 year cycle, well something close to that, this is also another example of a universal cycle</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Heat spikes</strong></li>
</ul>
<p>these heats spike (global warming) happen every so and so years, in the 10,000 range maybe more, but these spike occur&nbsp;right before a ice age, but we will get into more detail later, so these heat spike or global warming or whatever we call it is not the caused by humans but by natural cycle, if anything caused global warming the closest thing we could say would be our road which are black, and black attract heat</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Ice age</strong></li>
</ul>
<p>an ice age happens every 10,000 years, and usually comes right after a heats spike, 4 ice ages have been recorded as i know and all ice ages have been in between a certain length time, this length time happens to come into action sometime in the next 100 years? BUT is there a chance it could be happening this year? who knows</p>
<p><strong>what has been discussed&nbsp;</strong></p>
<p>i have looked through lots and lots of articles, and conversations about this ice age and chances are very slim, but the are still high chance of a mini ice age that will make miner effect, in the case of a normal ice age we could run into poverty, and people will most likely die</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2012/05/28/olympic10a_1.jpg" alt="" width="460" height="276" /></p>
<p>Main stadium of the Olympic Games, 2012.</p>
<p>Extremists have posted of&nbsp; detailed instructions, on a website that links with a terrorist group,&nbsp;of a potential terrorist attack on this summer&#8217;s Olympic Games.</p>
<p>The attack is to be potentially undertaken, via toxic cyanide; that would be mixed in a unidentified hand cream. Which the poison is absorbed through the human skin. Stated by one member, called Abu Hija Ansari.</p>
<p>Ansari stated, in Arabic that anyone performing the attack should wear &#8220;medical gloves&#8221;, as they produce their lethal mixture.</p>
<p>He also stated: &#8220;Mix the ingredients. The skin cream will open the pores in the skin and speed up the process, and increase effectiveness of the poison&#8221;.</p>
<p>The articles also stated that they were able to access the website, which has 17,000 members world wide and links to six al-Qaeda terrorists.</p>
<p>Another extremist stated that: &#8220;It is a good idea and you need to plan well&#8221;.</p>
<p>Writing under the 2012 Olympic Games logo she stated: &#8220;It&#8217;s time to prepare for the event, as once again they are interfering with innocent Muslims.</p>
<p>Security in the region are on high alert for any form of attack or hindrance, on the Olympic Games which start of on July 27. In the main stadium in Stratford, east London.</p>
<p>Jonathan Evan the M15 director-general. Briefed the cabinet, last week, of the potential terrorist threat facing the UK in the run up to the Olympic Games.</p>
<p>Also emerged, last week, two terrorists involved with the liquids plot to blow up trans-Atlantic passenger jets. Where back on the streets after being released from prison.</p>
<p>Conservative MP for Essex, Bernand Jenkin, told the newspaper: &#8221; I hope the individuals are identified so action can be taken&#8221;</p>
<p>The run up to the games is a period of great tension to the British government and defence, and all measures all being taken to ensure the safety of the arriving athletes and citizens.</p>

The Dark Side of Asian Idols - Asian idols are not as important in society as they are made out to be. 
Persuasive Piece 2012
(Focus on Korean Idols)]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Asian idols are on the rise. They have been in the headlines. They are starting to break into the mainstream pop culture. With this popularity comes a countless number of fans. However, are idols really as important as society makes them out to be? Are idols really worth all the praise that is given to them?</p>
<p>Idolising idols is a great waste. While there may be nothing wrong with listening to songs once in a while, it can also easily turn into an addiction. From merely listening to songs of a favourite idol or band, it can easily turn into looking up their information and other works (to hear more of them), searching for their pictures (to stick up in their rooms or display as backgrounds for their computer screens), reading gossip magazines or websites (to see what their idols are up to), etc. This, uses up a lot of time which cannot be brought back, can it not? In order to attend an idol&rsquo;s concert, buy fan merchandise and &lsquo;fan rice&rsquo;, it is also wasting endless amounts of money which will not easily be earned back. Clearly, this is an obsession which must stop occurring. Teenagers and early adults are still in school and should not be focussing so much time on idols and things which are in relation to idols. Instead, they should focus on more on school and those who are close to them such as friends and family. Idols are a waste of time as they are not as important as the fans make them out to be.</p>
<p>Most Asian celebrities are multi-talented, making them great role models for their fans. Nowadays, most Asian idols know not only how to model, sing and dance, but also to play musical instruments, compose their own songs and even write their own lyrics. Some of these idols have even launched their own acting career. Korean romantic comedy and music drama &lsquo;Dream High&rsquo; (2011) was popular not only among Koreans, but also many international fans. Although the acting could have been better, it has successfully boosted the names of many of its idol-turned-actors. Due to its popularity, &lsquo;Dream High 2&rsquo;, which recently broadcasted its last episode, had again, most of its cast being idols rather than professional actors. These talented people inspire fans to become more like them, to study hard in school and strive hard to achieve their goals. Many fans have admitted that they went to learn a new language so that if they ever got to meet their idols they would be able to converse with them in their native tongue, while other fans have strived to become more like their idols by learning to sing, dance and take up music.</p>
<p>However, idols can also have a bad influence on their fans. Idols are looked upon not only for their talents, but also more often than not, their outer appearance. Female and male idols, (in particular Korean idols), have admitted to getting plastic surgery done. Some of the most common surgeries are the double eyelid surgery and nose job. Due to &lsquo;popular&rsquo; fashion trends, these young stars are often seen in rather revealing and sometimes even borderline offensive clothing. One such case is of Tiffany&rsquo;s (SNSD) shorts. Several netizens have criticised Tiffany&rsquo;s short shorts for being too short. There were several shots where Tiffany&rsquo;s shorts, which rest right below her bottom, easily rode up her bottom, revealing her butt cheeks when she started dancing. SNSD are role models for many young girls around the world and should be setting a good example to the girls that look up to them.</p>
<p>While idols do have positive impacts on society, more often than not, idolising idols waste the time and money of their fans and idols persuade their fans to do certain things and follow certain trends. We do not need idols to tell the youth of today what to do and not to do. The fans&rsquo; infatuated idolism is not necessary as Asian idols are not as important as society makes them out to be.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Will Kenyan's Elections be Free and Fair....Free from violence and other mul-practices.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>TENSION remained high in Mombasa  County following the just ended party of national unity alliance that saw over 12,000 voters locked from voting.</p>
<p>The irked rejected upcountry voters from all 30 wards within the Mombasa County reacted angrily to the move saying it was part of the plot by the Coastal voters to throw them out of the city.</p>
<p>The PNU grassroots elections which were held on Saturday in various parts of the county turned out to be a tribal voting as the upcountry voters were not briefed on where the polling stations would be stationed and hence threw the whole process in disarray as the voters rummaged every parts of the county to find where the exercise was being held.</p>
<p>Earlier on the part of the local dailies had published the date of the elections and the names of the officials to officiate but till yesterday night the upcountry voters despite making several calls to the returning clerk Yusuf Mambo, they had not been told which stations would be used as polling centers.</p>
<p>It was until today morning that they heard rumours that elections were being held in certain centres in Changamwe and Portrietz built when they contacted the returning officer as early as 8:30 am, they were told the elections were already over.</p>
<p>Others who confessed to the press also expressed bitterness from the way the returning officer dismissed them over claims that they had no right to vote here as they were not of the coast origin.</p>
<p>Carrying evidential materials which implicated that the voters were actually registered in Mombasa County wards the voters led by an aspiring Chairman Patrick Kabundu, protested that it was unfair for them to be locked out yet they were all in the same alliance.</p>
<p>&lsquo;We are all in the same umbrella body that encompasses various political parties who have a common goal and its too embarrassing&nbsp;&nbsp; to see this kind of tribal seclusion and this is just early signs that there wont be free and fair elections in the coming polls.&rdquo;&nbsp;</p>
<p>They alleged that aspiring governor and gulf bank chairman Suleiman Shahbal was the master mind behind the whole upcountry voters as part of the ploy to bar them from contesting any seat within the Mombasa County as part of the devolved government setup.</p>
<p>&ldquo;We are not in anyway aspiring for the governor or senator ship seats but as part of being the coastal community residing and having business interests here we also need to be part of the devolved government.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Kabundu reiterated that it was evident that a plot has hatched to kick out all upcountry residents in Mombasa  County so as to give way for the locals to fully exploit and enjoy the devolved government benefits by themselves.</p>
<p>Kabundu further alleged that Shahbal who is member of the PNU alliance has not been active in the drumming up support for the alliance and all over a sudden he springs out of nowhere via Shirikisho party and start discriminating upcountry voters who have dedicated all their time and resources to uplift the alliance.</p>
<p>He said he would mobiles the rejected voters for ditch the PNU alliance if the rigged elections were not cancelled and a fresh date set again.</p>
<p>&ldquo;We have had consensus with the Lamu people where elections went on smoothly involving each other as after talks they realized we needed each other to cohabit.&rdquo;</p>
<p>The PNU Member who is also a prominent business man in Mombasa said their earlier arrangement to meet with Suleiman Shahbal and Mvita aspirant on Narc-K Mvita Mp aspirant Mohammed Tenge flopped after Shahbal did not show up.</p>
<p>Reports reaching the media however confirm that Shahbal whop was to be in the consensus meeting attended by Kabundu and Tenge was holed up in Big range hotel in Nyali hosting coordinators and other election officials as part of the syndicate to shortchange the voting pattern.</p>
<p>It is amazing if this is what Shahbal intents to do as a governor then it simply disqualifies him as a potential candidate and we will mobilize all the upcountry voters to vote against him when the time comes.</p>
<p>He condemned the act and added that they will move to court to challenge the elections results as they were not conducted in a free and fair manner.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Is freedom, the spirit of the Republic, gaining popularity among a growing class of Americans frustrated with the political system?]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span>The 2008 and 2012 United States presidential nominations have seen the Republican party reeling from the effects of the financial crisis and the unpopular foreign policy witnessed during Republican George W. Bush&#8217;s two terms as president. An unorthodox Republican presidential candidate, Congressman Ron Paul of Texas, has gained some national attention more specifically in the growing internet community, by preaching a message of fundamental change of the institutional structures of government established since the early twentieth century. Although Paul has run as a Republican twice now, he has run as a Libertarian in 1988, and has channeled the trend growing distrust in the federal government by arguing for more limited federal  powers on a broader scale that includes getting rid of the military-industrial complex, the federal reserve, and the nation’s “War on Drugs.”  By advocating individual rights and freedoms, Ron Paul has espoused a Libertarian platform that attempts to safeguard people’s liberties from the encroachment of federal policies that limit or endanger the people’s Constitutional rights. Paul’s Libertarian platform may likely prove unsuccessful in the short term but if the growing trend of distrust in the  both the politicians and the political process persists, his Libertarian philosophy might just  spark the revolution disenchanted citizens of the United States are looking for. </span></p>

		<description><![CDATA[The Defence Ministry has already made it clear to the residents that the weapons will only be fired as a last resort.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://commons.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Ministry_of_Defence%2C_London_from_air.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2012/04/29/ministryofdefence2clondonfromair_1.jpg" alt="" width="540" height="293" border="0" /></a></p>
<p>Britain is set to host the Olympics in July 2012 but the plans by the Ministry of Defence to use residential flats to station their military materiel is already causing fear among property owners.</p>
<p>Block flats in East London have been identified and found to be very ideal for covering the air space where the Olympics stadium is located from any terrorist air threats and the 700 residents living here have already received leaflet notices from the authorities to this effect.</p>
<p>&nbsp;The Defence Ministry has made it clear that the weapons will be put on top of the houses and they will only be fired as a last resort. Most importantly, the weapons will be stationed on the rooftops of the flats for as long as two months from now, supported by a 24 hour police and military presence.</p>
<p>The biggest fears being expressed by residents is the possibility of their neighbourhood being targeted by terrorists, thereby putting their lives in danger. Many say the decision to use their high rise residential buildings was arrived at arbitrarily without consulting the residents and owners of the property. &nbsp;</p>
<p>There is also the question of whether or not, the private owners of the property will be compensated for having such high velocity weapons placed atop their buildings. The Ministry of Defence insists a final decision has not been taken, but that a number of sites have been identified, including the flats near Bow in East London, for a robust air security plan during the Olympics which is due to take place in July.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[A non-partisan article to help YOU decide who to vote for in the next United States' Election.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Note:</strong> Everything I will be talking about here will all be facts, backed up by sources which I will state. If any comments are worded in a way which is partisan to one party or another, it is not intentional.</p>
<p>So I&#8217;ll start off by making a list of what might be on your mind (I know it&#8217;s on mine) of the issues in this upcoming election.</p>
<p><strong>1 &#8211; </strong>National Debt.</p>
<p>This, I believe, is on every American&#8217;s mind who really cares enough to even vote in the next election.</p>
<p>So, let&#8217;s share some facts.</p>
<p>The national debt was first introduced (Meaning, we were actually in debt) around the turn of the 20th Century (1900s). After that point, the debt has accumalated to what it is today. It is worth noting that this is just a couple years before WWI.</p>
<p>Now, from the 1900s up until the end of George W. Bush&#8217;s final term, the national debt had been added on to by a total of $9.5 Trillion&sup1;. George W. Bush himself (In 8 years/2 terms) contributed $4.5 Trillion&sup2;&nbsp;of that. In Obama&#8217;s first term (4 years), he is projected&sup3; to have tacked on a total of $6.477 Trillion of debt.⁴</p>
<p>According to this information, Obama has put an additional 68.1% ($6.477/$9.5) on top of the national debt in 4 years, compared to W. Bush&#8217;s 47.3% ($4.5/$9.5) in 8 years. Neither President helped one bit in terms of debt, yet the conclusion is clear.</p>
<p>Now, we have no idea how the other Presidential candidate will perform in terms of debt, but it&#8217;s <strong>your</strong> choice whether you want to set Obama up to increase the debt by 68% again, or take a chance on a new President.</p>
<p><strong>2 &#8211; </strong>Agendas.⁵</p>
<p>Agendas can be difficult to discern, especially when the majority of anything ANY politican says is political banter and influential comments to achieve votes. We can assume Obama will do more of the same things he&#8217;s been doing; not implementing a budget, putting more federalized plans into action, and other socialiazed plans.</p>
<p>Assuming the current &#8216;winning&#8217; nominee (Romney) wins the nomination for his party, his agenda is &#8217;supposedly&#8217; as follows:</p>
<p>Demand Congress cut corporate income taxes (35% to 25%), and demand Congress slash $20 Billion from the budget.</p>
<p>Allow states to escape part&#8217;s of the Nationalized &#8220;Obamacare&#8221; plan by issuing &#8216;waivers&#8217; to all 50 states. He would need Congress to vote with him on this since the Health Plan states that you can&#8217;t put out waivers until 2017; and even then, on strict conditions.</p>
<p>Rewrite the manner in which all federal regulations are issued. At present, the government calculates the potential cost of implementing new rules, but doesn&#8217;t set an annual limit on what those costs can add up to; Romney would, and his limit would be zero, though the idea of being precisely zero is debated and critized. &#8220;You&#8217;re trying to land a jumbo jet on an aircraft carrier. . . if you&#8217;re going to say &#8216;It&#8217;s going to be exactly zero&#8217;,&#8221; Jim Nussle says.</p>
<p>And finally, call out China for manipulating international trade. Romney argues that by keeping the value artificially low, China gains an unfair advantage with cheaper export goods. &#8220;So,&#8221; Romney says, &#8220;I&#8217;m going to label them a currency manipulator&#8221; (Said in his Wisconsin debate). China experts say Romney would nevertheless be risking a backlash from the Chinese &#8211; over an issue that is not top priority. &#8220;It&#8217;s not the thing I would pick&#8221;, said Derek Scissors, a China expert at the conservative Heritage Foundation.</p>
<p>An ambitious agenda, and perhaps not all necessary. Yet some of these would indeed help our country; the question is, can he actually put them into action? Obama promised many things that have never been done, some of which he is no longer even pushing for. Will Romney do the same?</p>
<p>So my brother Americans, who will you choose? Will you choose a President who has added more to the national debt than Bush in half the time, and who doesn&#8217;t follow-up on his campaign promises? We have already seen what Obama is capable of. Will you choose him again, close your eyes, and hope for the best?</p>
<p>Or are you going to take a chance and vote for the other Presidential candidate; whom we don&#8217;t know how he will perform in comparison, in strict terms? The fate of America is in your hands.</p>
