| | Who Is Sending Death Threats from Obama’s Campaign Site? | | 2008-06-14 22:58:00 | | THREATS?Someone from the Obama campaign sites is sending death threats under the name of Michelle Obama and David Axelrod. Steve Corbett of WILK News Radio has been the recipient. It is something rather unique, considering the fact that death threats are alleged to have been aimed at various members of the Obama campaign, not the reverse. I’ve heard rumors that others have received death threats. “…What makes this threat to kill me all the more mysterious is that it appears to have been sent through Barack Obama’s official campaign website – barackobama.com – the website that sends me ... | | By: The Pink Flamingo | | |

| Lady Doctor Gets Death Threats for Revealing TOP SECRET Fat Loss Secret to General Public! | | 2008-05-15 08:57:00 | | A new breakthrough secret is all you now need in order to forever shed countless pounds, stay healthy, and add many years to your life! A lady doctor from Arizona has blown the lid off the best-kept secret in weight loss ever discovered -- and this has the whole diet food and drug industries turned upside down and in nothing less than a torrential uproar. Her name is Dr Suzanne Gudakunst, and she's marching to the beat of a different drum. And no, nothing about her "secret" is difficult -- nor does it require that you do something completely out of the ordinary or anything unnatural. Instead, the Arizonian boasts proudly "...this is something that I caught onto just before 2002 when there was so much research and exploration going around concerning the human colon and digestive system working in harmony with nutritional absorption, and I started doing independent studies just to test things at first ... but which I later expanded on after seeing some fantastic results."

| | Fashion Threats - Is Anorexia and Bulimia Fashionable | | 2008-03-10 04:10:00 | | Fashion should be referred to like that of a magnetic force because of its power of attraction. People of all ages are drawn to the latest trend in designs that hang on boutique clothes rails like magnets. Regardless of shape and size there will always be a new designer creation to suit you. What you need to remember is - an outfit should be tailor made around your size - and not your size around the outfit you tend on wearing. Dieting is all well and good in a bid to shed those excess pounds should you be on the pleasantly plump side, but, sadly, there are women who feel the need to follow suit of others i.e. models that grace the catwalk. Images of bony skeletal frames are not a pretty sight, so why would you want to change from what is, naturally you, to what naturally belongs to someone else (Their identity). Clothes to compliment your shape and size are ten a penny due to massive quantities of new designs shipped from different countries from all around the world.

| | Threats of violence prompt security boost at Chrysler plant after layoff | | 2008-03-08 03:03:20 | | Threats of violence prompt security boost at Chrysler plant after layoff
In response to threats of violence and vandalism, Chrysler boosted security and added police presence at its Belvidere, IL assembly plant Thursday. The rumors have been circulating all week, and are believed to be in response to the elimination of the third shift, which amounts to 1,069 workers being laid off this week, as announced in January. The added Chrysler security staff together with the police on-site are patrolling the plant and parking lots, searching workers’ bags as they enter the factory. These measures are in response to threats that refer to last month’s shooting at the nearby Northern Illinois University, which killed six, according to local media. There have been no reports of any trouble. The Dodge Caliber, Jeep Patriot and Jeep Compass, all of which share a common platform, are assembled at the Belvidere plant, which is one of five at which Chrysler announced it will end a shift. | | By: Auto News: Car Reviews, Car News, Car Shows | | |

Police, sheriff's department, state troopers, SWAT teams, bomb squads, FBI, BATFE, Homeland Security, National Guard units and the town dogcatcher converged on a "suspicious brown paper bag" left unattended in front of Mother McRaggedy's Second Hand Store on Main Street. Following a six-hour standoff, a $190,000 remote-controlled ordinance-disposal robot was sent in. The bag contained an empty Mad Dog 20/20 wine bottle, left there the night before by Elmer Swilling, the town wino and dogcatcher.

| | Fight against LTTE bomb threats and our social responsibilities | | 2008-01-15 23:35:57 | | Recent chain of minor and major blasts in the capital city clearly indicates that security in Colombo is vulnerable to attacks. In few months back, there was strict and planned security checking network in placed and the armed forces and the police managed to catch large amount of explosives and vehicles packed with explosives. However, pro terrorist media network and allied NGO rights organizations were able to create an artificial howl against tight security measures.For them rights of parking of vehicles for shopping, increased traffic due to extra checking, etc were supreme than brutal killings due to bomb blasts. Those who are killed in the bomb blasts are the ordinary people in this country and those dead people can never go to the supreme courts to demand their human rights. In the other hand, the rights of these innocent people have less dollar values for various NGO right agents to organize campaigns! The unfortunate effect was the Supreme Court order on removing permanent check points and orders in allowing parking of vehicles in road way sides.Media mafia is not in the side of the peopleThe brave armed forces are engaged in crucial final stage of battle in Wanni jungle. However it is tragedy that foreign funded media mafia in Sri Lanka, having different agenda, was not in line with these victories and possible reactions of defeated terrorists. It is in this back drop that doctors are organizing strikes and private bus mafia threatening for strikes.Whenever there is a blast, the political wing of LTTE terrorists ably supported by their waged journalists in the south was busy highlighting the deaths and casualties. The media in general has failed to create a constructive discussion on how to defeat the ulterior motives of terrorists and safeguard the society from bomb threats, the only capability of coward and defeated terrorists.Can we safe guard our society from bomb threats?LTTE allied segments have spread another myth in the society that bomb threats o | | By: Lanka Rising | | |

| | | Analyzing Your Business's Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats | | 2007-10-08 10:13:00 | | Another tool for the toolbox, it is amazing how we overlook many things in our business which are actual strengths.Analyzing Your Business's Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threatsby BNET staffSWOT analysis (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats) is a method of assessing a business, its resources, and its environment. Doing an analysis of this type is a good way to better understand a business and its markets, and can also show potential investors that all options open to, or affecting a business at a given time have been thought about thoroughly.The essence of the SWOT analysis is to discover what you do well; how you could improve; whether you are making the most of the opportunities around you; and whether there are any changes in your market—such as technological developments, mergers of businesses, or unreliability of suppliers—that may require corresponding changes in your business. This action list will introduce you to the ideas behind the SWOT analysis, and give suggestions as to how you might carry out one of your own. What You Need To KnowWhat is the SWOT process?The SWOT process focuses on the internal strengths and weaknesses of you, your staff, your products, and your business. At the same time, it looks at the external opportunities and threats that may have an impact on your business, such as market and consumer trends, changes in technology, legislation, and financial issues. What is the best way to complete the analysis?The traditional approach to completing SWOT is to produce a blank grid of four columns— one each for strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and weaknesses—and then list relevant factors beneath the appropriate heading. Don't worry if some factors appear in more than one box and remember that a factor that appears to be a threat could also represent a potential opportunity. A rush of competitors into your area could easily represent a major threat to your business. However, competitors could boost customer numbers in your area, some of whom may well visit your business. What is the point of completing a SWOT analysis?Completing a SWOT analysis will enable you to pinpoint your core activities and identify what you do well, and why. It will also point you towards where your greatest opportunities lie, and highlight areas where changes need to be made to make the most of your business.What To DoKnow Your StrengthsTake some time to consider what you believe are the strengths of your business. These could be seen in terms of your staff, products, customer loyalty, processes, or location. Evaluate what your business does well; it could be your marketing expertise, your environmentally-friendly packaging, or your excellent customer service. It's important to try to evaluate your strengths in terms of how they compare to those of your competitors. For example, if you and your competitors provide the same prompt delivery time, then this cannot be listed as a strength. However, if your delivery staff is extremely polite and helpful, and your competitor's staff has very few customer-friendly attributes, then you should consider listing your delivery staff's attitude as a strength. It is very important to be totally honest and realistic. Try to include some personal strengths and characteristics of your staff as individuals, and the management team as individuals. Whatever you do, you must be totally honest and realistic: there's no point creating a useless work of fiction! Recognize Your WeaknessesTry to take an objective look at every aspect of your business. Ask yourself whether your products and services could be improved. Think about how reliable your customer service is, or whether your supplier always delivers exactly what you want, when you want it. Try to identify any area of expertise that is lacking in the business. as you can then take steps to improve that aspect. For example, you might realize that you need some more sales staff, or financial help and guidance. Don't forget to think about your business's location and whether it really does suit your purpose. Is there enough parking, or enough opportunities to attract passing trade?Your main objective during this exercise is to be as honest as you can in listing weaknesses. Don't just make a list of mistakes that have been made, such as an occasion when a customer was not called back promptly. Try to see the broader picture instead and learn from what happened. It may be that your systems or processes could be improved so that customers are contacted at the right time, so work on boosting your systems and making that change happen rather than looking about for someone to blame.It's a good idea to get an outside viewpoint on what your weaknesses are as your own perceptions may not always marry up to reality. You may strongly believe that your years of experience in a sector reflect your business's thorough grounding and knowledge of all of your customers' needs. Your customers, on the other hand, may perceive this wealth of experience as an old-fashioned approach that shows an unwillingness to change and work with new ideas. Be prepared to hear things you may not like, but which, ultimately, may be extremely helpful. Spot the OpportunitiesCompleting a SWOT analysis will enable you to pinpoint your core activities and identify what you do well, and why. It will also point you towards where your greatest opportunities lie, and highlight areas where changes need to be made to make the most of your business.The next step is to analyze your opportunities, and this can be tackled in several ways.External opportunities can include the misfortune of competitors who are not performing well, providing you with the opportunity to do better. There may be technological developments that you could benefit from, such as broadband arriving in your area, or a new process enhancing your products. There may be some legislative changes affecting your customers, offering you an opportunity to provide advice, support, or added services. Changes in market trends and consumer buying habits may provide the development of a niche market, of which you could take advantage before your competitors, if you are quick enough to take action.Another good idea is to consider your weaknesses more carefully, and work out ways of addressing the problems, turning them around in order to create an opportunity. For example, the pressing issue of a supplier who continually lets you down could be turned into an opportunity by sourcing another supplier who is more reliable and who may even offer you a better deal. If a member of staff leaves, you have an opportunity to re- evaluate duties more efficiently or to recruit a new member of staff who brings additional experience and skills with them. Watch Out for ThreatsAnalyzing the threats to your business requires some guesswork, and this is where your analysis can be overly subjective. Some threats are tangible, such as a new competitor moving into your area, but others may be only intuitive guesses that result in nothing. Having said that, it's much better to be vigilant because if potential threat does become a real one, you'll be able to react much quicker: you'll have considered your options already and hopefully also put some contingency planning into place.Think about the worst things that could realistically happen, such as losing your customers to your major competitor, or the development of a new product far superior to your own. Listing your threats in your SWOT analysis will provide ways for you to plan to deal with the threats, if they ever actually start to affect your business. Use Your AnalysisAfter completing your SWOT analysis, it's vital that you learn from the information you have gathered. You should now plan to build on your strengths, using them to their full potential, and also plan to reduce your weaknesses, either by minimizing the risk they represent, or making changes to overcome them. Now that you understand where your opportunities lie, make the most of them and aim to capitalize on every opportunity in front of you. Try to turn threats into opportunities. Try to be proactive, and put plans into place to counter any threats as they arise.To help you in planning ahead, you could combine some of the areas you have highlighted in the boxes; for example, if you see an external opportunity of a new market growing, you will be able to check whether your internal strengths will be able to make the most of the opportunity. For example, do you have enough trained staff in place, and can your phone system cope with extra customer orders? If you have a weakness that undermines an opportunity, it provides a good insight as to how you might develop your internal strengths and weaknesses to maximize your opportunities and minimize your threats.The basic SWOT process is to fill in the four boxes, but the real benefit is to take an overview of everything in each box, in relation to all the other boxes. This comparative analysis will then provide an evaluation that links external and internal forces to help your business prosper.What To Avoid Focusing just on a few issuesDon't just focus on the large, obvious issues, such as a major competitor encroaching on your business. You need to consider all issues carefully, such as whether your Internet system provides everything you need or whether your staffing levels are as they should be.Completing your SWOT analysis on your ownDo take advantage of other people's contribution when you're completing your SWOT analysis; don't try and do it alone. Other people's perspectives can be very useful, particularly as they may not be as close to the business as you are. This distance can often help them see answers to thorny questions more easily, or to be more innovative: we all get stuck in a rut at points.Using your analysis for the next ten yearsDon't do a SWOT analysis once and then never repeat the exercise. Your business environment will be constantly changing, so use SWOT as an ongoing business analysis practice.Relying on SWOT to provide all the answersUse SWOT as part of an overall strategy to analyze your business and its potential. It is a useful guide, not a major decision-making tool so don't base major decisions on this analysis and nothing else.Slainte GordonThe daily challenges of an Entrepreneur living in the North East of England | | By: Gordon Whyte's Blog of the daily challenges of an | | |

| | Civilization: Amid Old Triumphs, New Threats from Fascism | | 2007-08-13 21:01:47 | | Bertrand Russell, in hisWisdom of the West, put forward a simple thesis. Western Civilization is essentially Greek civilization.There is no civilization but the Greek in which a philosophic movement goeshand in hand with a scientific tradition. It is this that gives the Greek enterprise its peculiar scope; it is this dual tradition that hasshaped the civilization of the west.--Bertrand Russell, Wisdom of the WestIn support of his thesis, Russell points to the authoritarian,theocratic natures of earlier civilizations --Egypt and Babylonia.Religion, Russell stated, seems inconsistent with the Greek spirit offree inquiry typified most famously by Socrates and the Platonictradition that followed.

Politely but firmly, they instructed him to take down the colourful array of Bollywood and bhangradance tunes on display and to restrict his business to Islamic music. Until last week he might not have worried about these men from Islamabad’s Lal Masjid (Red Mosque). After all, his shop is legal and within walking distance of Pervez Musharraf’s presidential palace. But this was just one of several signs in the past ten days that a creeping campaign to “Talebanise” Pakistan has spread from tribal areas on the Afghan border right to the heart of the capital.More | | By: THE NEW BABYLON TIMES | | |
