  • I do agree with Mr. Gopnik.

    In the last few months here in Italy there is an open controversy going on upon the role and even the real existence of mirror neurons in human's brain and macaque's brain as well (see: I neuroni specchio esistono o non esistono nell'uomo, at www.brainfactor.it ). Beside for the real existence of this new category of neurons, which I do not ...

  • Recent US led Afghan Airstrike Violate International Law

    International Law is explicit about civilian protection, including but not limited to Article 51, 52 and 57 of Protocol 1 of the 1949 Geneva Conventions. Violation of these articles are demonstrable by the recent U.S. raid on an Afghan Village as reported in early May of 2009. Article 51: Protection of the civilian population Paragraph ...

  • The Legacy has a history

    This is the agency that gave us the missile gap between the U.S. and the Soviet Union. The CIA's tactics have embaressed the U.S. for year, but its failure to deliver accurate intelligence has been far worse, far more dangerous.

  • Wow -- What a Rant by "Rage Boy" Chris Hitch Today

    I am perfectly content, really quite happy, about Obama's decision to have this mega-Church author, pastor, and cultural figure, Rick Warren, give the prayer at the January 20th Inauguration of our new United States President. I understand the apoplexy of ''Rage Boy'' Christopher Hitchens at the very thought of a prayer being said, let alone a ...

  • Mumbai terrorists

    Here in Canada a survivor told the media that as he was fleeing a restaurant it appeared that some of the servers had guns and others appeared to have been living in the hotel which means there were a lot more terrorists in on this slaughter than just 10.

  • WHAT ARE WE COMING TO IN THE US?

    I just cannot believe anymore the fearmongering that is happening in our country. This polictial season is just SO NEGATIVE. Throw in the negative nature of the economy and one begins to wonder if this negativity isn't part of some grand plan to keep the masses off their game. It sure does make for an environment that allows for subterfuge from ...

  • Vintage Hitchens destroys Gov Palin's remains

    Mr Hitchens warns us of his ire with the 2 year campaign in his 1st sentence which goes far from being soured gastric juices. A manufacturing chemist who works daily with the most toxic compounds will identiy the composition of Mr Hitchins's 1st sentence for us shortly. I wish to be enlightened. Sarah Palin's remains, political & earthly, ...

  • Longevity does not necessarily bring wisdom

    Biden was wrong on the surge. Biden was the one whose wisdom was to recommend that Iraq be partitioned into four zones - an approach that would have guaranteed a Shia region completely dependent on Iran. Biden has been around many years and can tell decent stories but Biden is such an ideologue he is incapable of actually looking at the data. The ...

  • Re: Advertising, etc.

    I bet you would prefer such a person! You have misspelled ''literal,'' ''familiar,'' ''grammar,'' and you have failed to capitalize the E in English. And you've done this even though the program underlines errors. However, the Founders of this country were all literate, well-read, and articulate. Most of them could—and did— read Greek, ...
