&lt;p&gt;This week, two countries are seeking to &lt;b&gt;break the worldwide ban on ivory trading — a decision that could wipe out whole elephant populations&lt;/b&gt; and bring these magnificent animals closer to extinction.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; But many African states and conservationists support extending the ban on elephant-slaughtering ivory trade. The decision will be made at a UN meeting in Doha on 13 March, and &lt;b&gt;global public opinion could tip the balance!&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.avaaz.org/en/no_more_bloody_ivory_gg/?rc=fbp&amp;pv=1" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sign the petition now&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;This wrap skirt is made from absolutely gorgeous fabric purchased directly from the vendors at the fabric markets in Accra, Ghana. The fabric is dyed and batiked with very permanent high quality dyes. It will not run, even in warm water! It is a joy to behold, with vibrant colors and remarkably inventive designs.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://www.mzreport.com/post/427786345</link><guid>http://www.mzreport.com/post/427786345</guid><pubDate>Fri, 05 Mar 2010 00:07:11 -0600</pubDate></item><item><title>

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“The fact that these really are the excess people in America, we— our  economy doesn’t need them.  We don’t need ten or 15 percent of our  population.  And certainly the ones that are undereducated, that have  been ill served by the inner city school system, that have been  unprepared for the technocracy of the modern economy.  We pretend to  need them.  We pretend to educate the kids.  We pretend that we’re  actually including them in the American ideal, but we’re not.  And  they’re not foolish.  They get it.”&lt;/p&gt;
