EU summit good for prostitutes COPENHAGEN (Reuters) - The European Union summit, at which 10 mostly ex-communist nations were admitted to the bloc, has kept prostitutes in the Danish capital busy, according to local media. "We had many more clients during the summit," Danish tabloid Ekstra Bladet quoted a prostitute, Pia, as saying. "Many were foreigners -- business men, politicians and reporters," said Pia. Around 3,500 delegates and reporters were in Copenhagen for the December 12-13 summit. read full story / add a comment

"Fare Thee Ill, Kissinger Posted on December 13, 2002 @ 7:22PM Henry Kissinger has resigned from his post as the head of the 9/11 investigation commission. The problem, however, was not his shoddy track record of human rights violations, abuse of power, or clandestine warfare. He resigned because of his consulting firm. . Kissinger had been under pressure from families of 9/11 victims to reveal his client list to avoid any potential conflicts of interest. In his letter to Bush, he said, "It is clear that, although specific potential conflicts can be resolved in this manner, the controversy would quickly move to the consulting firm I have built and own. I have, therefore, concluded that I cannot accept the responsibility you proposed." The good news: Henry's history. Bad news: Poindexter and Abrams are still around " from www.alternet.org read full story / add a comment

We already made a big banner, 12 meters long, demanding "ZONA CATASTROFICA, XA!" and we hanged it in Riazor (football stadium) taking advantage of the Depor-Juve match and all the foreign media there. I watched the recorded match at home and the panoramic shots of the crowd would stop exactly when reaching our banner. Other networks didn’t broadcast a single shot either and I can assure you, you could read it from the whole stadium. On the 1st of December there was a demonstration in Santiago to ask for "catastrophic zone". ON TV NO ONE TALKS ABOUT IT". If a power popular movement doesn’t grow to support this it will soon be forgotten (even though some foreign papers are claming that this is the worst environmental disaster in the history of Europe) read full story / add a comment

The fishermen have joined other groups of ordinary people such as the residents in Mayo who are bravely fighting the Shell corporation which is ripping off their gas resourses and the relatives of the young people who died at the hands of the drug corporations and who refuse to accept the mockery of the Lindsey tribunal. It proves that you dont need a nutty dogma to do the right thing, read full story / add a comment
