The history of terrorism is intricately tied to the first political organization in which dominance was established, not by wisdom, knowledge, age, by prowess in the hunt, or some special, spiritual power, but by pure, physical force. The first social terrorist was probably a bully. That worked for a time until men realized the strength of the bully was no match to the strength of a gang.

Advance Australia Fair

Tuesday, February 27th, 2007

The official national anthem of Australia, Advance Australia Fair, was composed by Peter Dodds McCormick, a Glasgow-born citizen who used the alias “Amicus” which meant “friend” in the nineteenth century. It was first sung by Andrew Fairfax during a function in Sydney on the celebration of St. Andrew’s Day on November 30, 1878.

African American History – Teaches Values Across Generations

Tuesday, February 20th, 2007

I have always thought of myself as a rebel, but after studying a little bit of the history of African Americans, I realize it is my parents that are the rebels. They were willing to risk everything – their safety, their freedom, even their life – to make things better for me and my generation. Studying African American history has taught me that I should be grateful to them for the sacrifices that they made. More importantly, it has taught me that it is crucial that I make the most of myself. Being aware of African American history means that I know how hard it was to get to where we are today. I must not squander the chances that I have been given.

1776 – The Story of Americans in the Ranks

Thursday, January 4th, 2007
1776 (Unabridged)

Written By : David McCullough
Narrator : David McCullough
Publisher : Simon & Schuster
12 hours
Type : American Pre 1900
Based on extensive research in both American and British archives, 1776 is the story of Americans in the ranks, men of every shape, size, and color, farmers, schoolteachers, shoemakers, no-accounts, and mere boys turned soldiers. And it is the story of the British commander, William Howe, and his highly disciplined redcoats who looked on their rebel foes with contempt and fought with a valor too little known. But it is the American commander-in-chief who stands foremost — Washington, who had never before led an army in battle.

From Tomboy to A Modern Woman

Wednesday, October 18th, 2006

When I was young, I was a tomboy.

I played with the other boys in the street in games like soccer and cricket. I wasn’t remotely interested in dolls or anything girly. I didn’t want to do skipping games, in fact everything the girls in the neighborhood did looked very boring. My toys were also of the tomboy persuasion and I had 10 toys which I played with the most.

Rainy days were often spent inside with my fort.

It was a well built fort with look out posts. The cavalry soldiers guarded it against the Indian invaders. It was probably the best of my favorite 10 toys. I also had a farm, which had pigs, horses, sheep and cattle. There was a big tree and a well. I made the farmer and his wife work very hard, milking the cows and driving the animals to market.

I also had racing cars which were a bit beat up but I loved them anyway.

I gave each one the name of a racing driver, so there was Stirling Moss, Jack Brabham, Allan Clarke and Graham Hill. A list of favorite..
