China`s Antidumping Investigations Against Cellulose Pulp

Dissolving pulp is not a homogenous market.

(NEW YORK CITY) - In February 2013, the Chinese government announced that it would be conducting an antidumping duty investigation of dissolving pulp producers in Canada, the United States and Brazil.

This article examines the structure of the dissolving pulp market, the factors that have negatively affected China’s domestic producers and the likely effect of a duty on China’s domestic price.

Ken O`Keefe`s Middle East Show on `The Peoples Voice`

We are moving well beyond the mundane problem oriented reporting of this region, rather we are committed to the illumination of the real issues, with focus on the common solutions that unite the struggle for justice in the Middle East.

(LONDON) - The Middle East is a focal point of global geopolitics and understanding this region provides great insight into the tyranny of our world.

Massive investment in the mainstream media's role to deceive the public regarding the Middle East, with 9/11 being the zenith of this deception, has resulted in continuous crimes against humanity.

One Man`s Fight for Justice

Brother of murdered Marine fighter pilot has never given up his quest for justice.

(SOMERDALE, NJ) - The Sabow brothers were only one year apart; both graduated from Georgetown University. Both dated the same girls in high school and for all practical purposes were twins. James Sabow accepted a commission in the Marine Corps and became a Marine Corps fighter pilot. The men remained close as they perused their separate careers.

In January 1991, Colonel James E. Sabow was murdered at Marine Corps Air Station El Toro, CA.

(LAS CRUCES , NM) - For 20 years, Frontera NorteSur (FNS) has kept readers in the United States and abroad informed about critical issues along the U.S.-Mexico border, in Mexico and New Mexico and beyond. This has been a transformational, pivotal period of history globally as well as locally here in the Paso del Norte borderland.

In the past two decades, we’ve witnessed the North American Free Trade Agreement, Operation Hold the Line and the expansion of border security, the onslaught of climate change, the economic crises of 2000 and 2008...

Congressman Walden`s Agenda Just Rejected by Swing Voters

The results in Virginia’s off-year governor’s race often predict how swing voters will vote in the following year’s midterms...

(WASHINGTON, DC) - Yesterday, voters in the battleground state of Virginia rejected Congressman Greg Walden’s agenda – embodied by gubernatorial candidate Ken Cuccinelli, who pushed the same wrong priorities as Congressman Walden and House Republicans.

Whether it’s social issues, women’s rights, immigration reform or deeply flawed priorities on the budget, there’s little daylight between Congressman Walden and Ken Cuccinelli.

Americans Turn Out in Droves for DEA`s Seventh National Prescription Drug Take-Back Day

Prescription drugs that languish in home medicine cabinets are highly susceptible to diversion, misuse, and abuse

(WASHINGTON, DC) - The American people have again responded in droves to the most recent DEA-led National Prescription Drug Take-Back Day. Last Saturday citizens turned in 647,211 pounds (324 tons) of expired and unwanted medications for safe and proper disposal at the 4,114 take-back sites that were available in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and U.S. territories.

This is the second-largest collection of medications in seven Take-Back Days.

Shine a Light on Lung Cancer

Nobody can breathe easy while the disease of lung cancer continues to strike our fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters, husbands, wives, neighbors and friends.

(SALEM) - I am writing you today to inform you of this wonderful event we have created, progress we are making locally, after my mother-in-law passed away from a terrible disease.

She was 50 years old and two weeks away from meeting her first grandson when she passed. She was overlooked by her doctor for months before they finally found her cancer. I ask that you please read my letter and help spread the information.

Pro-Tamil leaders Inaugurate Mullivaikal Memorial Museum

The sculptures have been fashioned based on the line drawings rendered by artist Veera Santhanam and have been carved out by Mamallapuram Sthapathi Murugan and his team.

(CHENNAI) - Mullivaikkal Ninaivu Muttram, a memorial for the Sri Lankan Tamils who lost their lives in the bloody war in Sri Lanka has come up in Vilar road near Thanjavur.

A brainchild of World Tamils Confederation, this memorial is the only sad reminder of the dead Tamils in Sri Lanka where each and every remnant of the war with the tiger rebels has been wiped out by the Sri Lankan Army, including the house where LTTE supremo Velupillai Prabhakaran lived.

Appeasement Dooms Palestinians to Everlasting Misery

UN's precious gift empowering legal action is squandered while Israel, with US/UK/EU acquiescence, continues to seize land and resources with impunity.

(LONDON) - Later this month Palestinians will be celebrating an important anniversary, namely the decision by the UN General Assembly a year ago to recognise Palestine as a non-member observer state. But not with much joy, I suspect.

Its upgraded status enables Palestine to now take part in UN debates and join bodies like the International Criminal Court (ICC). Predictably, Israel flew into a rage at the prospect and said the move pushed the peace process "backwards", while the US said it was "unfortunate".

(RANGOON RFA) - Myanmar’s government and armed ethnic rebel groups failed to hammer out details of a nationwide cease-fire accord at the end of landmark peace talks Tuesday, putting off further discussions until next month.

The government delegation and representatives from more than a dozen rebel groups will hold their next meeting in southern Myanmar’s Kayin (Karen) state capital Hpa-An in December, the two sides said in a joint statement after a two-day meeting in Myitkyina, the capital city of Kachin state.
