Ecstatic Voices (Oct 30 2004 23:38 GMT) - Ladysmith Black Mambazo Rain, Rain, Beautiful Rain, The Very Best of (Wrasse Records WRASS 139, 2004) There can be no doubt that the collective voices of Joseph Shabalala and his troupe still raise the small hairs on the back of the neck with their distinctive and wide-ranging harmonies. They have been doing this for a long time now and know just how to touch the minds and bodies of listeners who may be totally unfamiliar with the Zulu language. Such is the power of certain music to reach across cultures and frontiers. |

Your best bet might be to find some German helpers to look at your site for you, and see they can help you determine if there is something on the site that might be harming your opportunities to convince your visitors to become buyers. |

If Osama Is Still Making Videos, Then Bush Failed (Oct 30 2004 23:34 GMT) - Why the hell would right wingers applaud a new video from Osama bin Laden as evidence we need to keep Bush?

Sneer of the Day (Oct 30 2004 23:33 GMT) - Speaking about bus rides from Democratic rallies directly to the polls, William R. Scherer, a Fort Lauderdale lawyer working for the Republicans, said his party had no need for such stunts. "We don't need to bus," he said. "Most of our people have cars." According to the literature, one of the reasons for the famous Literary Digest polling error in the 1936 election was a reliance on lists drawn from automobile and telephone registrations, and at the time only the prosperous had either. |

Helping 'Take Back the Night' (Oct 30 2004 23:30 GMT) - By Mark Wilcox, Gazette Writer Daily Mining Gazette - Houghton MI CALUMET - Since age 16, more than half the women in Michigan report experiencing some sort of violence by a man, according to the Michigan Resource Center on Domestic and Sexual Violence. Statistics from this center also reveal that one out of every five women in Michigan with current partners reported sustaining some type of violence in that relationship.
