Oriana Fallaci

In her new book, "The Force of Reason" Italian journalist and novelist Oriana Fallaci , faults Muslims for the fact that "they breed like rats"; for requiring their meat to be slaughtered in a "barbaric" manner she says is similar to kosher butchery; for having their own schools, hospitals, and cemeteries; for immigrating; and for wanting accommodation of their religious holidays and Sabbath in schools and workplaces.

So as you can see from the above mentioned book, there are people out there that hate Muslims not for their alleged extremism and occasional terrorism, they hate them for the way they are, and in my opinion this kind of hatred is very hard to deal with, as a matter of fact, it probably doesn't have any kind of solution at all.

Time for the last post

In this article appearing in the Financial Times http://news.ft.com/cms/s/384be1be-9eb1-11da-ba48-0000779e2340.html The writer argues that blogging is already a virtual tomb for a billion posts, he adds, blogs are superabundant and often irrelevant because we suffer from a glut of data. By 2005, 56 new blogs were starting every minute. As I type this sentence, there are, according to technorati.com, 27.2 million blogs. By the time you read this sentence, there surely will be many more.

Read on if you are interested in learning about the immediate fate, and long term goals for your own blog.
