It is essential to stress two things. First, unlike some of the one star reviewers who obviously haven't cracked the book, Phillips means this as a warning against all political dynasties, which was, in fact, a major concern of the Founding Fathers. They were terrified of political families whose influence would extend from one generation to another. And this fear persisted well into the 19th century. Anyone doubting this should read a good biography of John Quincy Adams. Phillips points out early in the book that the Kennedy family was a bit of a dynasty (and would have been one for certain had Robert F. Kennedy not been assassinated in 1968), and he acknowledges that if Hillary Clinton were to run and win in 2008 that would also constitute a dynasty. His decision to focus on the Bush/Walker family derives from the fact that they in fact have had two presidencies in less than a decade, as well as other members of the family holding other political positions (Preston Bush was a U.S. Senator and Jeb Bush a governor). Second, this book is an exploration of many of the ills of the political system.Read more ›
This is not a shrill, one-note, Bush-bashing book, and Phillips does not appear to have an agenda or axe to grind. Accordingly, he comes across as exceedingly fair and objective. His history goes back several generations, is detailed and fully supported, and reveals the Bush family's long-standing ability to insinuate itself with, and do the bidding of, the monied class. As others, including Phillips himself, have mentioned, these are not new revelations - it is all public and available information. What seems to particularly gall Phillips is the mainstream media's laziness and lack of interest in pursuing any aspect of this tale.
Neither Al Frankin nor Ann Coulter, Phillips is to be commended for this book.
With that said, Phillips does go off on some odd jags that will strike some readers as beyond the pale and a little nutty. In Phillips' hands, the sparse record around Prescott Bush's alleged dealings with Nazi Germany probably gets more attention than it should. Some of these more conspiratorial elements of "American Dynasty" keep this indictment from being absolutely first-rate, but do not ultimately derail the book's stronger elements.
Many other reviewers have dismissed Phillips as "bitter" or trying to "foment class warfare." To such criticisms, I think it's important to consider Phillips' background. Phillips is most famous for having written "The Emerging Republican Majority," and for having been a kind of political soothsayer who predicted the realignment that led to the end of the New Deal liberal coalition. Phillips made his greatest mark during a time of real intellectual ferment in the Republican Party -- when the ascendency of neo conservatism was breathing new life into the conservative movement, and real, serious ideas were being generated.Read more ›

Video Industry News Video Company News Technology Industry News Technology Company News Novelty Industry News Novelty Company News Gay Industry News Gay Company News Legal Industry News All Company News
Released: Apr 01st, 1997
Running Time: 85
Director: M Stone
Company: Moonlight Entertainment
Cast: Nico Treasures, Nyrobi Knight, Julian St. Jox, Crystal Knight, Mr. Marcus, Sophia Ferrari, Jake Steed, Vanessa (VII), Sam Strong, Stephanie Swift
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: All-Sex
Well, nobody has shining panties (and in some cases, no panties at all), but there are two "Knights," so that's half the battle won. Several scenes score here, including the opener, with Stephanie Swift chowing down on Julian St. Jox's wiener as he tongues her snatch. Two cowgirl positions and a facial complete the heat. Nico Treasures and Vanessa share an invigorating interracial muff munch, which includes lots of fingering and dildo-ing.
Best of show, though, has Sophia Ferrari being double-teamed by Mr. Marcus and Jake Steed. After Ferrari delivers twin b.j.'s, she gets to be the bridge between Marcus' doggie pounding and Steed's pulsating hot dog. The guys switch positions, and for the rest of the scene, Ferrari has a cock in her mouth and one in the pussy, until a long, screen-shattering d.p. ends in double facials. Even Nyrobi Knight's finale, with its long anal reverse cowgirl pounding, doesn't top Ferrari. Stock up on this winner.

Eaton's BECOPAD® Depth Filter Sheets Help Distiller Increase Productivity, Decrease Complexity and Retain Flavor
TINTON FALLS, N.J. … A Pennsylvania-based distiller that prides itself on producing award-winning craft beverages has turned to Eaton to help increase productivity by replacing inferior depth filter sheets that were inefficient and difficult handle. BECOPAD depth filter sheets were able to perform in an efficient manner, offering time savings and retaining the flavor that is critical to this small business's success.
Producing a good, consistent whiskey is a complex process. One of the issues encountered during the filtration process is the appearance of the finished product. There is the question of how the whiskey should appear when it's cold, which is really a customer preference issue that has little to do with quality. Some people do chill filtering, which means the whiskey is chilled below the freezing point of water and put it through a very fine filter that removes the large chain molecules that cause cloudiness. That alters the flavor, but a lot of people don't want their whiskey to get cloudy when it's cold.
To meet the company's challenging filtration needs, Eaton recommended its BECOPAD depth filter sheets. The BECOPAD depth filter sheets are a new, mineral-free depth filter medium for a wide range of applications, from coarse to sterile filtration. In a special process, high-purity celluloses cross-link to form a unique structure that requires no inorganic ingredients. BECOPAD depth filter sheets are characterized by maximum purity.
Once the distiller introduced this new technology to its process, the results were evident. The BECOPAD depth filter sheets were very easy to load and unload into the filter press, considered an invaluable, time saver for the company owner and primary distiller. Additionally, filtration at higher flow rates was realized. Best of all, the flavor retention is right where they want it to be.

Patriot Bowl
I don't like war. And I don't like the war in Iraq. But what I really don't like is how our wounded veterans are being treated by the government that sent them into harm's way in the first place.
This leaves me with a couple of choices: Do nothing but bitch to people who can't change a thing anyway, or try to help some of those veterans out on my own. If you feel the same way I do and would like to actually manifest some change yourself, then head over to Brunswick Zone XL, 9225 Kimmer Drive in Lone Tree, on Saturday, July 19 from 5 to 8 p.m. for Bowling for Wounded Heroes.
The evening includes guest appearances by Erik Weihenmayer plus Mammoths and Broncos players, laser tag, bowling, door prizes and a silent auction; proceeds benefit Adaptive Adventures, a non-profit organization helping people with disabilities through outdoor recreational activities. Specifically, the proceeds are going to help Adaptive Adventures help wounded soldiers. Great fun, great cause -- I'm there! Tickets are $50; for information, visit Adaptive Adventures here.

Rutgers Course To Explore Springsteen's Biblical References
A religion professor at Rutgers University has introduced a one-credit course exploring religious references in Bruce Springsteen's songwriting. The professor says it's important to understand the "broader context" of a writer's work.
Good morning, I'm David Greene. For many fans, listening to Bruce Springsteen can be spiritual. That certainly includes a religion professor at Rutgers University. He's introduced a one-credit course exploring religious references in "The Boss's" songwriting.
The professor says it's important to understand the broader context of a writer's work. Some of the biblical references in the music, he says, are subtle; others, not.

Xcelmobility owns or has control of CC Mobility Limited, Shenzhen CC Wireless Limited and Shenzhen CC Power Industry Development Co. So a merger with Tencent Holdings is a perfect fit.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
This could certainly boost share holder value. Time to add shares.
What!!! you have admitted in previous post that you are indeed flipping this stock. But with the stock just sitting still or going up like it is right now. your right, its very difficult for you to play the game. To bad your not getting the sell offs like before.
Sentiment: Buy
You purchase and sale shares almost daily. Your not being honest when you say you would not put another penny on this stock. Be truthful and let people know your a flipper. And want the the shares to sell off so you can repurchase them to make your flip. You like upward momentum but don't like it when shares sit still. Unless you can discourage some folks to bail out your not making any money. Good luck with that.
I assume you need the stock to go lower so you can buy some more shares to sell later. But the Chinese are very well connected. The people that have money over there are very connected including with the government. Mr. Yu is a very important person in China and knows the lotto market very well over there. Not just a guy who knows a guy. My company has been in the process of partnering with Linuo Solar and have had several meeting with some very influential people. I believe him if he says this company has a good shot at some success. Time will tell. But if you can pick up a few million shares for cheap its worth the gamble. They have very little room for any downward moves. and have proven that over a very long period of time. But they have a very large potential for upward momentum. Even if its just a couple of cents or Maybe 10
Things are going to get exciting for this company very soon. Add now while shares are still under 8.00

Restuarant Carcassone: Dont miss the real Tunisien food!
I found this place because I was walking trough the main street in the center seeking for some good and moreover cheap place to eat. At that time came to me two young guys (the guys which paid me the cigarettes…) and they brought me in this restaurant.
I could not eat all they brought me!!!!
I had the entrance (was the spicy Tunisian salad), the main course (it was the cuscus with vegetables and chicken), the second plate, (it was a small piece of steak with pommes frittes) and the dessert, plus beer and coke…
Well, for all that, I spent 5 Dinars!!!
The restaurant is moreover full of backpackers and local people, very quiet, clean and the waitress are amazing! Nice and very cool!!!!

Chicken Kebab: Don't miss such a Kebab!
Just in front of the Arc of the Medina, there is the main street, where a lot of restaurant and bars has been open during last pasts years.
If you want to eat something quick and good, spending as less as possible, then I would suggest you to come here and eat a Chicken Kebab, such a nice food!
You will spend the ridiculous amount of 2 Dinar for a huge Kebab plus a Soda….something extremely cheap, good for the backpackers like me ):-
Address: in front of the arc of Medina
Carthage: Smart Tunis Restaurant
Carthage is a lovely restaurant on a quiet street near Avenue Bourguiba. From outside it didn't look like much. We peered in through the window and couldn't see anyone eating in the downstairs section so we assumed it was either closed or very quiet.
A guy sitting behind a desk downstairs beckoned us in and indicated that the restaurant was upstairs. So up we went, dressed like two backpackers only to be met by very well attired waiters. We felt very underdressed but no one seemed to mind. A TV blaring in the background made us feel a little more comfortable.
Carthage is more expensive than your average Tunisian restaurant. It also serves alcohol which you only find in touristy type places or more expensive local places. This was one of the latter. As it was Saturday night the restaurant was nearly full though we were the only non Tunisians. Most of the diners were youngish, affluent Tunisians.
We both went for the 12 Dinar set menu plus a bottle of red wine (Terrale - one of the famous names in Tunisian wines). The food was delicious and as it was our first night in Tunisia it was quiet a novelty to be brought our free appetizers of olives, harissa, tuna and bread. Little did I know you get this in practically every restaurant in the country. Among the dishes we had were Salade de Tomates, Salade Tunisien, Wiener Schnitzel and Tagine.
The service here was mostly excellent. I asked for a fruit salad as all the desserts were too sugary for a diabetic and they made up the nicest fruit salad I can remember. And they didn't charge anything extra. The wine waiter must still be learning the trade as he took ages to open the bottle then spilt it everywhere when he was pouring the first glass! Overall, we really enjoyed the night. The bill came to 38 Dinar which was excellent value for such a nice meal.
Address: 10 rue Ali Bach Hamba
Directions: North of Avenue Bourguiba, near El Hana International Hotel
Noir et Blanc: Great Value Tunis Resturant
After visiting a posh restaurant on our first night in Tunis we tried the other end of the scale at Noir & Blanc, a good value place near our hotel on rue de Yougoslavie. The average main course cost about 5 Dinar though I decided to splash out and try the 8D steak. We were brought the usual appetizer of olives, harissa and bread while for starter we both had Salade Tunisienne. The food was very nice and overall it was good value at 20 Dinar for everything.
Abid: Sfaxian Restaurant
Twelve Dinars for an entire meal for two people! It does not get better than this.
By our last night in Tunisia we were well used to eating in the cheap, locals restaurants. Abid specialises in Sfaxian food. It's an extremely friendly place and even though we were the only non-locals there we were made very welcome.
We were brought a huge plate of olives, bread and harissa after we sat down. Abid didn't serve alcohol so we had bottles of cold mineral water to accompany our food. We both had Salade de Tomates for starters while for mains I had Merguez (spicy lamb sausages) and Ruth had couscous. This was the biggest couscous I've ever seen. I helped her eat it and even between us we didn't get through half of it.
We didn't have a dessert though we were brought complimentary mint teas by the owner which was a nice way to round of our meal and our trip to Tunisia.
Address: 98 rue de Yougoslavie
Mahdoui: Cheap Medina Restaurant
On our first day in Tunis we went for a very late lunch while exploring the medina. Ruth wasn't hungry as she had eaten on the plane a few hours before but I was ravenous so we stopped at this restaurant, which was near the Great Mosque, on rue Jemaa Zitouna.
Here I learned my first lessons about Tunisian restaurants.
1) No matter what drink you order, even if it's not on the menu or served in the restaurant, you'll get it. Ruth ordered a coke and we saw our waiter walk down the street with an empty coke bottle. He came back about 10 minutes later with a full bottle. No idea where he went!
2) If you order the fish, there's a good chance it will be served with head attached. This kind of put me off eating it but not quite as I was so hungry. If you're the squeamish type order something else.
Mahdoui is open from 11-4 but if you want a good choice of main courses I'd advise getting there early. The menu looked nice but at 3pm all that was left was the fish. It cost about 6D for a main course and two drinks. Very good value but the food was only adequate.
Address: 79 rue Jemaa Zitouna
Directions: Near the Great Mosque
il capricho: nice and clean
at isle de jerba near the shoppin area, it was one of the few restaurant or coffeshops that i liked, because it was clean, the food was nice and was full of people of the village, not just for tourist.
Favorite Dish: pizzas and croassants, good expresso coffee

Restaurant Capitole
Probably the best bargain around! The Capitole has a set menu for each day of the week, the price always 5.5TD (less than 3GBP) for two starters, a main course and desert with mint tea. All the food is Tunisian, all of it very tasty and obviously fairly authentic as most of the customers are Tunisians.
The restaurant is on the first floor of a building on Avenue Bourguiba, with many tables overlooking the street.
Favorite Dish: Starters include Brik al-azma (Brik a l'ouef, the odd parcel containing a fried egg and a bit of tuna, quite messy to eat), various salads and soup. For the main course, I ate couscous with fish which was tasty and filling. Service was great even though it was busy, the waiters friendly and the food good and cheap, so I can recommend this to any visitor to Tunis.

El Dar Restaurant at The Residence Hotel: Traditional Tunisian Food in Style
This is a real traditional style restaurant, even though it is in a luxury hotel.
When you walk inside out of the hotel corridor you imagine you are somewhere in the Casbah.
All the decor is traditional and simple with a flagged floor and local arts and crafts.
The staff are friendly and helpful and are very good at explaining the dishes on the menu.
Favorite Dish: The lamb cooked in a traditional clay pot is really good and so different to anything I have had before. It is best if you share as the portion is huge. The lamb is baked in herbs and spices in a large clay pot that is sealed so all the juices and taste stay in. The waiter breaks the pot at your table. It is served with couscous and vegetables.
You need to be very hungry as the portions are big and it is very difficult to resist the lovely fresh local bread they bring before the meal!

Carcassone: A nice reasonably priced restaurant
Although this restaurant is named after a French city, it serves mostly Tunisian food. Excellent service and very reasonably priced. I dined here twice and had couscous the first time (enormous serving!) and Tunisan salad the second time. The couscous was only 3 TD ( about $2.10 US) But if you are a big eater, you can have your choice of an entire 4 course meal for only 4 TD( less than $3) After all meals you are served the traditional mint tea.
Favorite Dish: Couscous and Tunisian salad

Bayruth Café: A Great Lunch Treat
We ate at this restaurant for lunch twice during our week in Tunis. The restaurant and service was impeccable. Each dish was prepared and presented perfectly, from simple shwarma to delicious plats du jour. The restaurant has three levels. If you are looking for a quick sandwich, remain on the ground floor and order. If you would like a plate with salad and hummus, venture upstairs. I would recommend venturing upstairs…the hummus is amazing. And be sure to leave room for mint tea, a staple of Tunisian dining.
Favorite Dish: The hummus was amazing, but I rtuly loved my chicken shwarma the best.

Au Bon Vieux Temps: A Great Restaurant in Sidi Bou Said
Our first night in Tunis we were treated to a wonderful meal at this quaint restaurant. After a series of appetizers that was shared amongst the six diners (and great bread), we al chose different entrees. I had the stuffed lamb and it was awesome. None of my colleagues were disappointed in their meals which ranged from couscous to seafood to other lamb dishes. I apologize that I was so engrossed in my meal that I didn't take note of other meals. I do know that everyone walked away impressed and the cleanliness and service was impeccable. It is easy to see why this restaurant was chosen as to kick off a great week of great food.
Favorite Dish: The stuffed lamb was very very good.

Mamma's: Touristy Touristy Touristy
What can I say about Mammas? Well, first of all, it broke all my normal rules for dining in Tunisia. It was in a touristy district and it catered to tourists. It offered fixed priced meals. It had a hawker on the street trying to draw patrons in. Could it get any worse? Well, luckily for us, no. It was a fair restaurant and the prices were fair as well. Nothing spectacular, but it wasn't trying to be spectacular. It is what it is…a restaurant for Europeans and Americans that are looking for "comfort food." It is not a place for the adventurous diner. I would hope that VT members are more sophisticated than that…live a little…go outside your comfort zone. The only meal I was disappointed in all week was when we "played it safe" at Mammas. Sorry, Mamma!
Le Capitole: Cheap & basic
This restaurant is well located along Ave Habib Bourguiba and, indeed, you get a good view of the road from its high vantage point. I settled on the set menu at just TD5.800 which had salads and Hors d'oeuvres for starters, cous-cous, chicken and other meat dishes for mains. I had a salad followed by steak Dinine (turkey) which was a slab of thinly cut meat with fries. The food and general atmosphere are cheap so don't expect anything fancy. This place is ideal if on a budget and so the food reflected this.
Other Cafes: Other Cafes
Ave Habib Bourguiba is Tunis' answer to Paris' Champs Elysees and like its more famous French cousin, is lined with several cafe where the locals sit out under unbrellas at all times of the day and people watch. A cafe aux lait varies in price rather dramatically depending on which cafe you plumb for. For example it costs TD1.200 at the Cafe de Paris and a rather expensive TD2.500 at the El Hana International whilst only costing 900 mills at a cafe opposite the 5-star Africa Hotel.
