February 25, 2009 by Kevin Phoenix · 9 Comments
Disneyland Resort Paris was built to give a creative joy and entertaining experience for children and family. It should bring happiness and excitement with sensual pleasure and opportunities to explore. A magical place that is filled with amusement, magic and personal memories. From the smallest child to the biggest kids of all ages, Disneyland Resort Paris has been turning dreams into reality for the last fifteen years.
The Paris resort is the biggest of the four theme parks in Florida, Tokyo and California. There are a number of original additions and features that make Disney Paris a must visit amusement park of all times. It has been designed a little like the California Park where the little paths and corners are concerned but some of the shows and features are completely new. The rides are more exciting, the most popular being the “Pirates of the Caribbean”.

One of the commentators on my post “Who Really Rules Your World?” bought this video to my attention – for which thanks goes to greenman.france.
Money as Debt
When we understand how money is created in the modern world we can then understand the main cause of many major problems: ever increasing taxation; pensions disappearing; inequitable distribution of wealth; inflation; national debt; currency crises and devaluations; recessions; depressions; and even the failure of government in a democracy to govern in the interest of its electors.

Now Fluoride can be added to our Food
February 3, 2009 by Kevin Phoenix · 17 Comments
Fluoride may now be added to foods manufactured and supplied in Europe. It’s been classified as a harmless supplement, according to Europe’s highest authority on food standards.
The decision means that food manufacturers can include sodium monofluorophosphate in their products. This is the common form of fluoride found in toothpaste and mouth washes.
The decision, by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), has angered the consumer pressure group Alliance for Natural Health (ANH). ANH is asking for an immediate enquiry.

Bishop Denies Holocaust

British Catholic Bishop Richard Williamson is clearly the most dangerously deluded man in the world. His denial of the Holocaust is at best naive – at worst it is the mind of a very sick individual.
In November 2008, he told Swedish television that he did not believe any Jews had died in gas chambers during the World War II.

Paris Couture Week
February 1, 2009 by Ashley Scott · 4 Comments
“More Dior than Dior” was the way that Christian Dior billed its spring summer haute couture collection last week. It was the leading major show of the Paris Couture Week, and proposed the first answer as to how the luxury fashion houses could provide an aesthetic response to the recession.
An profuse designer such as John Galliano was scarcely likely to present an austere, “credit crunch chic” collection, particularly as couture is about visionary, made-to-measure creations that showcase the skills of the fashion house and justify the price tag to the buyer. Instead, he returned to the essence of the Christian Dior label under its founder, then put his own exuberant historical variation on it.
Revisiting the roots of a brand is an conventional way to respond to hard times, and president and chief executive of Dior, Sidney Toledano, said that couture sales had seen “double-digit growth,” because Galliano had returned to “truly interpreting the Dior codes and the Dior cuts”. Consequently, the classic Dior profile of bar jacket of the late 1940′s, with its nipped-in waist emphasised by flared hips and a full skirt, was seen throughout the show. The amount of fabric used in Dior’s new look might have created outrage in post-war years, but the full skirts shown by Galliano last week made their iconic predecessors look almost skimpy.
The dreamy material of several of the dresses had an aristocratic feel – as if the wearer had successfully made a fairy-tale dress out of the curtains in her château … a sartorial echo for those couture clients whose finances aren’t recession proof after all.
