| Maple Leafs fend off Hurricanes
We expected a couple of wins a lot sooner than this, but we've been working hard the last couple of games and we worked hard for this one and got the result we wanted." Toronto's dismal record, underscored by the five-game skid, has fuelled speculation to a fever pitch and prompted Maple Leafs ownership to explore the possibility of replacing general manager John Ferguson Jr. "I am accountable for everything that happens here," Ferguson told Rogers Sportsnet during an intermission. "At the same time, we demand things out of our players, our coaches and our organization." Asked if he was trying to swing trades, Ferguson replied: "Fairly aggressively. When your team's going through a stretch that we are, you're trying to shake it up but, at the same time, not give anything away." Sergei Samsonov led Carolina with one goal and two assists, and Rod Brind'Amour and Erik Cole each had a goal and an assist.
Are You Ready for ‘Islamo-Fascism Week’?
But, as I said above, no actual “conservatives" (i.e. the kind that need to be re-elected or want to write books to convince people that disagree with them) are actually involved. Finally, to all the Muslim and Arab students out there: I am serious about what I said about snacks. I guarantee you, that if you host a festival celebrating Arab culture, which (and this is the important part) includes lots of good-tasting food, people won't even notice David Horowitz and his dwindling dog-and-pony show.

Research: Globalization, Imperialism, Militarism, Social Imperialism ...
By Dr. Mehdi S. Shariati
This paper examines US national debt and proposes that its causes are to be found in the political and military imperatives structured into the accumulation dynamics of global capitalism. To that end four historically overlapping and essential components of the accumulation process; globalization, imperialism, militarism, and social imperialism will be analyzed. Accumulation strategiesare at the same time imperialistic projects involving the internationalization of capital and production which in turn involves imperialism and militarism on a global scale. Imperialism here is defined not as "the highest stage of capitalism" (ala Lenin), but as an ongoing project of facilitating accumulation on a global scale and particularly with the ability to use its "creative destruction" (ala Schumpeter) in reinventing itself at a more expansive level.
