"Palestinian" Population Problems (Jan 25 2005 23:49 GMT) - Joel Mowbray reveals another of the untruths at the heart of the "palestinian" problem. According to Mowbray, the population statistics for the "Palestinian" occupied area of Israel has been inflated since Israel passed over controlling authority, to almost double the real figures.

This directory is an attempt to bring together all of the area's great cafes, community spaces, and the like that offer free wireless internet.There are two cafes in the bottom of my building (at Richards and Pacific)--Zodiac and a crepery--who have unsecured wifi. |

Another story seed (Jan 25 2005 23:45 GMT) - A strong element in The World of Christopher Marlowe was the Catch-22 that existed in Elizabethan England for the well-educated lower classes. Marlowe was too smart to be satisfied in the trades (besides academia raising hopes, he was also probably too old for apprenticeships after earning his degree), yet not well-connected or high-born enough to land a secure court position.
