Allen Taylor’s opinion in this past week’s edition was certainly well thought out and written, but I feel, had some major flaws. Mr. Taylor based much of his column on U.S. opinion polls today, stating that fewer and fewer (yet still a majority) feel President Bush is handling the economy […]

Beyond the War: What About the People?
A day doesn’t go by when I think about and discuss the probability of the United States entering into war with Iraq. I have watched the televised protests and supportive demonstrations, much as I did during Vietnam when I was just a child. If you discuss the idea of war […]
lmp presents: ANTIGONE RISING
Antigone Rising is not a feminist band, per se. They might give that impression, seeing as how they took their name from one of the first feminists – the tragic Greek character who lost her life because she refused to compromise her principles. But moreover, they’re a band made up […]

EQUAL INK – FOR WAR – Don’t let history repeat itself!
If Spanish-American philosopher George Santayana warned us that “those who do not learn history are doomed to repeat it,” then why are we constantly repeating past mistakes and allowing a madman like Saddam Hussein to remain in power? Since the Gulf War of the 1990’s, Hussein has been in the […]
