In the U.S., the gender gap in national politics first appeared in the 1980 election. It's stayed in the 5-10 percentage point range ever since; in 1972 and 1976, there was no difference between male and female preferences. Doug

[from The Onion] Flood Of Cheap Afghan Heroin To Arrive Just In Time For Recession NEW YORK-The nation's smack addicts received welcome news Monday, when The Wall Street Journal reported that the war in Afghanistan has opened the floodgates for cheap Afghan heroin, just in time for the coming recession. "Even if their stock portfolios are dwindling, America's junkies can take heart in the fact that the Taliban is embarking on a massive heroin sell-off, slashing prices dramatically," Wa ...

31420 yet more Bina -- rank: 1000
From: "Cyrus Bina" <binac at mrs.umn.edu> Date: Tue, 6 Nov 2001 14:16:47 -0600 Thanks for raising some pretty important questions. First, Saudi Arabia belongs to OPEC, which is a rent-collecting agency. The price of oil is determined globally via the spot and futures markets. So, OIL PRICE DETERMINATION, not attempt to determine prices, belongs to larger forces that are beyond a rent-colleting entity. The US engagement of the early 1990s with Iraq stems from the US reaction ag ...

[via PEN-L] Date: Tue, 6 Nov 2001 10:00:39 -0800 (PST) From: Tim Bousquet <chicoexaminer at yahoo.com> IndyMedia has removed the Nancy Oden story from their web site, but CounterPunch is still running it. I'm kind of perplexed by St. Clair's attitude on this. I mean, we all make mistakes, and it's especially difficult to stay on top of articles that are merely re-posted. I pointed out some problems with the article, and instead of addressing those, he attacks me and my efforts. I'm the fir ...

31424 FOMC -- rank: 1000
[Fed funds - the rate at which banks lend each other money overnight - haven't been 2% since 1961; the discount rate hasn't been 1.5% since 1955. They're scared. And they've left the door open for more. Wall Street pays big money for that kind of Fed-watching analysis, and you get it here for free.
