What exactly is a "docu-drama"?
A docu-drama is like a documentary in that it is based on
real events. Unlike a true documentary, however, a
docu-drama includes elements of fiction to more dramatically
illustrate the historical events depicted. (Actors might
re-enact the events, for example.)
What bird migrates from the Arctic to the Antarctic each
year?
The Arctic tern. This traveling bird flies nearly 22,000
miles each year in its migration (roughly the circumference
of the Earth), making it the animal with the greatest
migratory range.

Iraq trial resumes without Saddam Former Iraqi leader Saddam
Hussein Saddam has been protesting over the attacks on his
lawyers The trial of Saddam Hussein has resumed in Baghdad
without the former Iraqi leader who is ill in hospital.
Saddam Hussein was taken to hospital on Sunday as a result
of a hunger strike, which he reportedly began on 7 July in
protest at the murder of his lawyer.
The entire defence team also boycotted the hearing, claiming
their demands for a fair trial had not been met.
Saddam and seven co-defendants are on trial charged with
crimes against humanity. They all deny the charges.
"The decision of the lawyers to boycott the hearing is
designed to generate publicity and thwart the course of
justice," Chief Judge Raouf Abdel Rahman said.
He also accused Saddam Hussein's former intelligence chief
and half-brother, Barzan Ibrahim al-Tikriti - who did attend
court on Monday - of having blood on his hands.
"Enough blood. Your hands have been saturated with blood
since your childhood," Mr Rahman said.
The session heard a closing statement from a court-appointed
lawyer representing Barzan Ibrahim al-Tikriti, who said he
refused to accept the lawyers nominated by the court.
Mr Tikriti is also said to be taking part in the hunger
strike.
'Stable condition'
The judge adjourned the case until Wednesday, when he said
he hoped lawyers for the defendants would come to present
their case.
The lawyers acting for co-defendants Taha Yassin Ramadan and
Awad Hamad al-Bandar are due to give their final summations,
followed by those acting for Saddam Hussein and Barzan
Ibrahim al-Tikriti.
Lawyers for the four other defendants have already presented
their summations.
Once the final statements have been made the trial will be
suspended while the five-judge panel considers its verdict,
which is expected by mid-August.
A patch of blood shows the spot where Saddam Hussein's
lawyer Khamis al-Obeidi was shot dead in June Three defence
lawyers have been murdered during the trial Court spokesman
Raed Juhi said Saddam Hussein's condition was stable.
Chief prosecutor Jaafar al-Moussawi has said the 68-year-old
ousted leader is being fed through a tube.
Saddam Hussein and three co-defendants are believed to have
begun their latest hunger strike more than two weeks ago.
They are protesting against procedures at the tribunal, and
also demanding better security for defence lawyers.
Three members of the defence team have been murdered during
the course of the trial - most recently senior lawyer Khamis
al-Obeidi, shot dead in June.
The prosecution has called for the execution of the former
president and two others for the deaths of 148 villagers
during a crackdown in the village of Dujail after an
assassination attempt in 1982.

Love, and power, lie in the quiet stillness of your mind. You
can find it with meditation. Know this - it is far removed from
the emotions you think of as love here in earth.

Some Thoughts About Soy
PART 5 of 5
Second soy bulletin: Soy associated with reduced fracture
risk in postmenopausal women A study published in the
September 12 2005 issue of the journal Archives of Internal
Medicine found that postmenopausal women whose dietary
intake of soy was high had a lower risk of bone fracture
than women whose intake was comparatively low. Researchers
analyzed data from women who took part in the Shanghai
Women's Health study, which included approximately 75,000
Chinese women aged 40 to 70.
Women consuming 13.27 grams or more per day had a 37 percent
lower risk of fracture than those whose soy intake was less
than 4.98 grams per day. Isoflavones from soy were found to
provide a similar protective benefit. Those with the highest
intake of isoflavones had a 35 percent reduced risk of
fracture compared to the risk of women whose intake was the
lowest. The inverse association was more pronounced among
women in early menopause. Diets high in soy may reduce the
risk of bone fracture in postmenopausal women, particularly
during the early years following menopause. Arch Intern Med.
2005;165:1890-1895.
Conclusion: You have just read several opinions. I heard one
scientist say "You are undoubtedly aware that there really
are no products worth anything that don't have dissenting
opinions and detractors. There are still plenty of
researchers that believe vitamin E and other antioxidants
are useless, or even dangerous, although there are hundreds
of published studies to the contrary. Soy is one of the most
researched food products of all time with a massive amount
of positive research, yet there are website and books
dedicated to alerting people to the "evils" of soy. Good and
proper science necessitates dialogue, both in the positive
and negative." Please think for yourself and look
realistically at anything you put into your body.

PERCEPTIONS . . . by Ken Darby
-----------------------DISCLAIMER
Some around me think I am an opinionated old goat.
Whether that be true or not I will sometimes, in this column,
talk about things people don't like to talk about - or don't want
out in the open. Take it all with a grain of salt.
Do your own thinking, and don't accept the things I say as
gospel. They are only mental meanderings from a simple soul.
-----------------------END DISCLAIMER
It seems pretty clear, to me at least, that Suddam Hussein
is real clear on what his destiny now is. He has been
pulling every stunt in the book to delay the trial.
Yet he is in custody and will never again be out of it.
Sooner or later his fate will be decided. It is highly
probable he and his henchmen will be put to death.
However, if this trial does not end with that result there
are several others for even worse crimes that will be
following, so he will never be a free man again.
Sooner or later this man will be put to death. That is his
fear and that is why the stalling.
There are some who never realize that actions beget
reactions - as ye sow, so shall ye reap. The laws of our
Maker are never to be mocked or overlooked.

WHY DO WE SAY IT?
Salary: Where did we get the word "salary"?
From the ancient Romans. The word literally means "salt
money". The Roman soldier was once given an allowance of
salt; then he was given an allowance of money for the
purchase of salt. This was called a salarium - from sal,
meaning "salt".

HA! HA! HA!
Suspecting her husband of infidelity, the woman attempted to
put an end to it by arousing his jealousy. "What would you
say if I told you that I've been sleeping with your best
friend?" she asked provocatively.
"Well," he mused, "I'd have to say that you're a lesbian!"
