Pakistan's Descent into Anarchy | Opinion Maker
Pakistan's Descent into Anarchy | Opinion Maker: "The political situation of Pakistan is quite murky and ironical as the government shows total indifference to what a ‘democratic’ governance demands. Actually a government exists only in name but is hardly kicking. It has shown blunt defiance to the judiciary, due to the macho’ Law Minister, who is utterly predisposed towards sycophancy of the President and humiliates the apex judiciary. The Chief Justice however has given an unequivocal message that the intervention becomes absolute necessity in order to protect the sanctity of the Constitution. If the NRO beneficiaries are not removed from the coveted positions they hold, the judiciary shall act as per Constitution to ensure the implementation of the apex court’s order."

99ers need a Tier 5 extension now
99ers need a Tier 5 extension now: "The 99ers need a Tier 5 unemployment extension now, but is Congress listening? Despite hopes that Debbie Stabenow's Americans Want to Work Act S3706 will make its way through Congress and to the President, currently this bill is not even on the Senate docket."
99 weeks are not enough for millions of unemployed Americans and so Stabenow's bill will add an additional 20 weeks. This, of course, is only a temporary measure. To combat the long-term problem, Stabenow suggests offering tax incentives to businesses who hire long-term unemployed workers.
Holding Elected Officials Responsible for Unemployment - NYTimes.com
Holding Elected Officials Responsible for Unemployment - NYTimes.com: "We approach the midterm elections, and the unemployment rate is 9.6 percent. Inevitably, economic policy will play a major role in voting decisions, but wise voting and wise policy require us to recognize two central, almost contradictory, truths about the government and the economy: economic policy does affect people’s lives and the economy, and, less obviously, most of what happens in the economy has little to do with government policy."

Christian Books For Less - Pagan Christianity?: Exploring the Roots of Our Church Practices
Christian Books For Less - Pagan Christianity?: Exploring the Roots of Our Church Practices: "Have you ever wondered why we Christians do what we do for church every Sunday morning? Why do we 'dress up' for church? Why does the pastor preach a sermon each week? Why do we have pews, steeples, choirs, and seminaries? This volume reveals the startling truth: most of what Christians do in present-day churches is not rooted in the New Testament, but in pagan culture and rituals developed long after the death of the apostles. Coauthors Frank Viola and George Barna support their thesis with compelling historical evidence in the first-ever book to document the full story of modern Christian church practices."
