I seriously envy all kept women. They have well manicured nails, elaborate hair styles, flashy cars, designer outfits and just about any thing else that they want. The weird thing though, is that these women dont have to work a day in their lives, they have husbands who are so affluent that the luxury lifestyle is inevitable. Most kept women marry wealthy businessmen, plastic surgeons, rich lawyers, CEOs and Executives.They pass the time by shopping, joining book groups and doing charity work. But most of all they are absolutely, positively, avidly, and obsessively devoted to their children. They run the PTA as if it's the FBI. They're constantly after the school board - and the teachers - to make...

MY STORYTime and again, I hear from Christian people of all denominations, ministers included - men and women who love Jesus and are bearing much fruit as Believers - who express that they are totally uninformed or just plain fearful when it comes to dealing with demons.Many years ago, I attended a very large church in Texas with several thousand people on the role. Quite often I prayed that all the things Jesus wanted me to have in order to be the most effective "Omega Warrior" I could be would be entrusted to me. From speaking in tongues to healing the sick to casting out demons, I wanted a double portion of it all!Occasionally, I found myself in the vicinity whenever something "strange" would...

"Oye Mi Canto"; Hear my song. Latinos, Puerto Ricans in particular, have been stating this for years. Trying to get anyone who will listen to hear their music: Reggaeton.

Probably one of the most contentious issues of recent times in the aviation community is the proposed changes to the age 60 rule. As most of the readers will be aware, age 60 is a mandatory retirement age for pilots involved in the part 121 airline environment. Representations and pressure groups from both ends of the age spectrum have recently been engaged in open warfare to influence the change in legislation to their specific sides benefit. In early 2005, the republican senator for Nevada introduced a bill, HR 65, which dealt with altering the retirement age for airline pilots from 60 to 65, so as to be inline with ICAO rules. The resolution was then referred to the House Committee on...

Chances are, you haven't heard of Peppercorn Day. A holiday in Bermuda, Peppercorn Day may be the oddest holiday in the Caribbean. Its history dates to 1797 when a group of Freemasons began renting the Old State House in St. George, for the sum of one peppercorn. In 1816, the holiday tradition began. Every year on the Wednesday closest to April 23, amidst pomp and circumstance, a horse-drawn carriage brings the governor to collect the peppercorn.While Peppercorn Day is exclusive to Bermuda, many Caribbean islands share similar holidays. For instance, while the specifics differ, many islands celebrate their heritage with national holidays. In Dominica, late October ushers in Creole Week. Part of...

Rap music originated as a cross-cultural product. Most of its important early practitioners-including Kool Herc, D.J. Hollywood, and Afrika Bambaataa-were either first- or second-generation Americans of Caribbean ancestry. Herc and Hollywood are both credited with introducing the Jamaican style of cutting and mixing into the musical culture of the South Bronx. By most accounts Herc was the first DJ to buy two copies of the same record for just a 15-second break (rhythmic instrumental segment) in the middle. By mixing back and forth between the two copies he was able to double, triple, or indefinitely extend the break. In so doing, Herc effectively deconstructed and reconstructed so-called found...

There are apparently some people who think that the current "Greenhouse Effect" will simply lead to an "evolutionary" change in the global climate, so that climatic areas in the northern hemisphere like Canada, Scandinavia, Russia, Alaska in the U.S., and Antarctica in the southern hemisphere will become like one big tropical resort area like Tahiti, Cuba, or Jamaica. Soon everyone will be enjoying glorious sunshine, and sipping exotic tropical drinks in Nova Scotia, Baffin Island in the Canadian Arctic, or around the Arctic waters of Siberia, according to people with this apparent view.
