TWO TICKETS TO HAVANA, PLEASE... REALLY
by Ernest Barteldes
Today, any American citizen can hop on a plane and fly to 'rogue nations' like Iran or North Korea, provided he or she gets a visa to enter those countries. Even though they are part of what the Bush administration called 'the Axis of Evil,' there is nothing (legally) that this country can do to against you if you decide to do so. However, the same does not ring true in case that same citizen decides to spend a few days sipping mojitos at a Caribbean island just 90 miles off the coast of Florida. If you do that, you are breaking the law, and might suffer dire consequences if you go for it anyway.STORY

Fat Chance
by Melissa Beveridge
While passing by a local fast food restaurant, I saw an overweight child,around 12 years old,
bringing his tray to the table with his friend. Curious, I looked a little closer to see what this overweight
12 year old boy would be consuming, and surprise, it wasn’t a kids meal, hamburger, or even
French fries. This boy had a big salad on his tray....Then, his next action smashed my hopes. -nycny.com

Such disasters result from incremental and rapid ecological change, resulting in increased droughts, desertification, sea level rise, and the more frequent occurrence of extreme weather events such as hurricanes, cyclones, fires, mass flooding and tornadoes.
