 GPS surveying- Friday
May 14, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : New technology often becomes standard operating
methods simply because all of what it replaces can no longer compete with the accuracy
and speed of the invention. In this case a system for guiding Intercontinetal Balistic
Missiles works just as well directing a sprayer in a field or discovering where the
corner is of a town lot.

 Bush’s God cannot win the
hearts and minds of the Iraqi people- Thursday
May 13, 2004
by : Mario deSantis
Nipawin : This
article is a summary of a series of articles and material that paints a very unfavourable
picture of our American neighbours. The Iraqi prison torture story is disturbing,
but even more disturbing is the death of an American in Iraq, which has the timing,
that suggests this was a sacrifice rather than execution, as it provides Americans
with justification for their war crimes.

for the Geneva Convention as demonstrated in their holding of more than 400 people
at a Cuban military concentration camp.
