To Torture TerrorismBy: Vladimir Skoric Two CIA field officers break into the house of a terrorist on foreign soil. They search the premises and find the individual barricaded in the bedroom. They restrain him and kidnap him under the silence of the night, transporting him back to the United States. While under the interrogation of a few CIA officers they find out the terrorist is

Debating the Death PenaltyBy: Vladimir Skoric The death penalty is one of the most controversial issues in the United States. Many lives have been both lost and saved through the grim determination of capital punishment. Today the United States stands as one of the only socially adept countries to hold the death penalty as part of its judicial system. Many have debated its moral as

The Obesity Epidemic and Fast Food RestaurantsBy: Vladimir Skoric Walking to the bank yesterday I saw an obese man with a bucket, not a cup but what looked like a bucket of at least a half gallon of soda. What could possibly cause a person to drink that much soda? Better yet who knows if that was just one serving a day or if it was later refilled. The man of course has a

Stem Cell Research: The Cureby: Vladimir Skoric What would you do if someone in your family had diabetes, or even worse, had a spinal cord injury? What if you had the power, as a U.S. citizen, to vote into law legislation which could cure your family member sometime in the future? Stem cell research is viewed as a horrible thing by many. Stem cell research uses an embryo, a

Well its been a few months since I've posted any "wise" insight. I recently took a English class for critical thinking last semester. I ended up writing a few essays on current events. My sister told me I should publish them on here to stir up a little debate among all my "avid" readers. So for those loyal few out there here we go and feel free as always to blast away at my thought.

     About fourteen years ago an unprecedented action occurred to change the fate of world power. A bilateral world power system turned into a unilateral system with a hegemonic state. The action that took place was the fall of The Soviet Union. For about 30 years the cold war occurred between the United States of America and The Soviet Union. These two countries were the most powerful actors on

The unprecedented disaster that occurred in our country has left the federal government in great shambles. Thousands upon thousands of people have been stranded in New Orleans at the Superdome, with out adequate food or water. Only today, September 2nd 2005, did the convoy trucks from the National Guard start rolling into the flood ravaged city. Armed guards are at the supplies side throughout

It’s no secret that Al-Qaeda is in search of a nuclear bomb. God forbid they might already have one. But what sort of international consequence would result, if Al-Qaeda manages to smuggle a nuclear bomb into the US and set it off in a major city? Osama Bin Ladin financed and managed the 9/11 attacks in order to "kill infidels" and provoke the US to attack himself and Al-Qaeda in Afghanistan, on

I ended up finishing the book lastnight at a late hour. I was very impressed, and partially depressed, when I woke up this morning to find out that I've gone through the book allready. I had the urge to pick it up and start reading it again from page 1. But I figure hey, I got 6 days of summer vacation left why not devour few more books untill then.Bob Woodward seemes to impress me everytime I

Well no one really knows about this but a couple of people, but my sister is in Asia right now working with another fella starting a business development firm. Its a long story but they're getting funding taken care of through Asian Development Bank in the Philippines. Anyway to make a long story very short I got offered a job to go there and work with the firm as part of the the Technical

This weekend I fianlly picked up a copy of "The Secret Man: The story of Watergate's Deepthroat" by Bob Woodward. The book is absolutley amazing. The clandestine operations that were going on during the Nixon administration would blow your mind. This is by far one of the best non-fiction political books I've read in my life. To think the kind of power Richard Nixon had over the FBI and CIA to

Why does it take the death of a man to truly recognize his greatness? Peter Jennings, ABC anchoring just passed away 2 weeks ago. One night while on the computer I get a "CNN Breaking News" email.-- Peter Jennings, the longtime anchor of ABC's "World NewsTonight," diedSunday, the news network reports. He was 67.Now I didn't follow Peter Jennings to much on TV since I mostly stay with CNN and CNBC
