Greed, Hunger, Chaos, and Destruction are the prelude to and are just as devastating as the original Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. When faced with unprecedented food and water shortages all over the world through man's indifference have given rise to another set of...
The turbulence during the first World War led to the intrigue that brought about the downfall of the last Tsar of Russia. It was during this period that Nicholas II took control over his vast fortune and hid it hoping to retrieve it one day to reclaim his rightful place as...
One of the great purposes in life is to achieve a level higher with each passing generation. I have always tried to gain a greater degree of excellence than my father. Whether it was athletics, academics, music or any other great passion. Personally I succeeded in some and in...
When the Berlin Wall came down signaling the beginning of the end of Communist rule in Russia their life expectancy rates steadily declined. Both men and women's mortality rates took a sharp decline. Whether it was because of the instability of government, the economic...
In this the year of the early spring. You couldn't tell that by the weather in New England though. But down here in Florida spring really does come early. Soft gentle breezes that flow ever so slow aided by the warmth of the sun brings an altogether unique sense of...
From Joyce's Ulysses quote "Hold to the now, the here, through which all future plunges to the past" we are supposed to embellish our present moments where ever one happens to be. It strikes me as somewhat ironic that at the time when Ulysses was written how one simple quote...

Shangri-La, you know that place far off in the distance where luxury and ambiance abound. Where the cares of the world all in a world far, far away. Where one feels that tranquil harmony with nature. Where the everyday mundane tasks of survival in a world that has become so...
Never before in recent memory has the media been totally misinterpreting the facts about the U.S. economy. With enough job growth that only keeps the unemployment rate steady, which by the way is over 25% for African Americans age 18-35 and some where over 15% for everyone...
"People won't believe me. They think I was just bragging. The way I feel the way I do I should be on the wagon. Oh me! Oh my! baby do I feel high." Another opening to a great song of a carefree time. Leave it to the Kingston Trio whose lyrics simplified my coming of age...
