Note: Last year's TED winner, James Nachtwey, wanted his wish to be able to use new media and the power of photography to tell the stories that need to be told.
The stories of XDR-TB, HIV, genocide, war. the list goes of challenges this world faces.
Some of the photos he's captured over the years: shocking, stunning.
Posted by BAHRAMERAD, at 11:58AM 10/10/08 : Barack Obama's link to the mullah's of Iran.: All My Friends, this is very important, please take the time to read it.
Note: This election has me very worried. So many things to consider. About a year ago I would have voted for Obama. I have changed my mind three times since than. I watch all the news channels, jumping from one to another. I must say this drives my husband crazy. But, I feel if you view MSNBC, CNN, and Fox News, you might get some middle ground to work with. About six months ago, I started thinking 'where did the money come from for Obama'. I have four daughters who went to College, and we were middle class, and money was tight. We (including my girls) worked hard and there were lots of student loans.I started looking into Obama's life

Posted by BAHRAMERAD, at 11:20AM 10/10/08 and by 1 others: Sorry, Karl - Capitalism is Not Dying ; By Amir Taheri
Note: In one of those coincidences that add some spice to events, the passage of the $700 billion financial bailout package by the US Congress the other day came at the same time as some dyed-in-wool romantics were marking the 160th anniversary of the publication of the Communist Manifesto.As you know, the slim volume penned by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels in 1848 is an almost messianic hymn to the end of capitalism and the advent of the Communist utopia. It is, therefore, no surprise that some commentators have tried to see the current problems in the banking sector of the major Western economies as a fulfillment of the Manifesto's predictions."Capitalism is dying," announced he French left wing daily Liberation."Maybe Marx was right, after all, "noted a British friend who has spent most of his adult life fighting Communism." I plan to go back and read the Manifesto."
