It’s hip to be square – in your diet, anyway!
| |
| As with everything else we buy, there are people who have a vested interest in where we spend our food dollars. You’ve heard of the food pyramid, you might have even learnt about it at school, and certainly you can picture it, at least vaguely, showing you what you should be eating in greater and lesser amounts to stay healthy – eat more of the stuff at the bottom and less of the stuff at the top and you’ll be right. It was a very helpful tool for generations of parents with the best interests of their families at heart. |

| |
| However, most countries have not yet incorporated job creation plans into their national development frameworks. The national strategies include anti-poverty programmes, commonly based on Poverty Reduction Strategy Papers (PRSPs).

Micro-finance Policy and Development Framework: Malawi
| |
| In Malawi poverty is more persistent in the rural areas at about 65.3% of the population. The
recent poverty profile (National Economic Council, 2000) suggests that these poor are characterised
by malnutrition, lack of income earning opportunities, and unfavourable production environment.
Female-headed households, which are estimated to be about 35% nationally, are consistently
poorer than male-headed households, and are mainly engaged in subsistence farming and petty
trading activities. |

How many people does it take to change a light bulb
| |
| I was told about a recent article in the Weekend Australian Magazine. The article looked at a study by the University of Chicago. that found that if we excluded all animal based foods, including dairy and eggs, from our diet, that change would benefit the environment more than buying an eco-friendly car. Apparently 23% of a typical Australian diet comes from animal sources and so generates almost 1.5 tonnes more greenhouse gases per person per year than a vegan diet of the same calories. |

Metropolitics: Why Local Government is the Solution to Preserve American Democracy (and Society)
| |
| It's quite unfortunate that American national elections are perceived as a Partisan Death Match through which 51% of the nation gets to impose its personal beliefs on the hapless 49% minority. America's Culture War (Kulturkampf for you Germans out there) is still raging, and is increasingly being fought over national social policy. |

How to maximize store sales during the holiday season
| |
| The big question everyone is asking these days is if retailers are ready for the upcoming holiday season.
There have been numerous predictions and discussions on how malls and retailers are going to fare. An article in the Wall Street Journal last Tuesday mentioned that forecasters expect a better season for U.S retailers this year, but prices will be more discounted to get consumers into the stores. Another article mentioned that the National Retail Federation expects holiday sales to rise 2.3% from last year. And The International Council of Shopping Centers predicts holiday sales to increase anywhere from 3% to 3.5%. The Corporate News Headline in the WSJ on Thursday was, “Malls begin the healing process, vacancy rate improved for the first times since 2006.”
So, things seem to be looking up – BUT, are they?

I collect sports memorabilia and the National is the place where everyone who is a serious collector or dealer goes. People fly in from all over the world to buy and sell every kind of sports collectible imaginable. And fifty sports celebrities are there signing autographs (for a fee).
