		<description><![CDATA[The media is versed at making us feel so inadequate that we start doubting our beliefs and values after a while. This is really detrimental since we already have such a difficult time to think for ourselves and to assert ourselves. So what the media does is to keep eroding our already vulnerable and, in some cases, fragmented self.

		<description><![CDATA[We are currently in the innovation age as demonstrated by the fact that humankind's knowledge is doubling every ten years, and probably more so in technology. America can thrive in an age like this. Why? Let me give you ten good reasons. America is a nation of immigrants who came here for a better life for the most part. Therefore they have the genes to initiate changes in business, education, computers, the Internet and practically all the fields of human endeavor that require reason.

		<description><![CDATA[To use Twitter or not, that is the question.  It seems that every time I turn around, someone is mentioning Twitter. People ask me what Twitter is, television shows ask for viewers to send in their Twitter comments, and businesses wonder how Twitter can help their profits. Instead of a short-lived fad, Twitter is becoming an important part of our modern lives. So should you be using Twitter?

		<description><![CDATA[Here in Canada we are a proud people with a wonderful country in so many ways. Yet, we often don't speak about. We certainly don't brag about it. We often celebrate all that it means to be Canadian and be blessed enough to live in the majestic mosiac that is the pulsating heart of all that Canada is and exemplifies. The Vancouver Olympics, unfolding now, and specifically the opening ceremonies, reminded this Canadian just how vibrant and alive my pride in Canada is. Hopefully it has reminded all of us that we have so much to be proud about.

		<description><![CDATA[Once an individual starts writing, its almost impossible for him/her to stop. Writing becomes a person's passion, joy and compulsion. A serious  writer writes at the bus stop, in the dentist's office, in cafe‚'s, as well as on beaches, in lonely woods, at his computer, and sometimes even in bed. Some writers begin as hobbyists or recreational writers, jotting down ideas after work or on the weekends when they have a free hour. They may find themselves spending more and more time at the writing venture until they think about it most of the day.

		<description><![CDATA[Our beliefs literally shape our reality, your world is totally different from the world I live in right now and that's great.  We all live in a world shaped by our beliefs and our beliefs have been shaped by the people around us in childhood and the experiences we had when we were younger.  New beliefs are also formed when we are older but most of our beliefs are formed at a young age.

		<description><![CDATA[It is always best for writers to write about what they are passionate about. If something really matters to you, you should write about that because you will have the most likelihood to have the manuscript written. Otherwise, writers who don't have a passion about what they are writing have a tendency to let such ariticles, blogs, or manuscripts fall by the wayside before completing them.

		<description><![CDATA[There has been and continues to be a steady increase in the violence in the game of hockey. Hockey is, of course a physical sport. However, increasingly it is becoming a blood-sport. The growing lack of respect that players have for each other and each other's lives is alarming. When fans watch a hockey game they do not want to see a player's head slammed so hard into the boards or glass that his skull is fractured. Fans don't want to continue to witness the senseless inflicting of brain trauma that head shots cause. Fans don't want to see what we saw happen just last night, Sunday January 17, 2010 in a game in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League (QMJHL). The  hit on  - the dirty, violent, and intentional elbow viciously delivered to the head of  Mikael Tam of the Quebec Remparts who crashed to the ice convulsing and who actually did stop breathing for 30 seconds

		<description><![CDATA[Every year around this time, I start thinking about my goals and priorities for 2010 in all parts of my life.

Apparently, this visual representation of your goals helps remind you that these are things that you said that you would accomplish.
