across happens people safety sort walk
Typically, what happens is there will be times when people can go across, but we don't know when those times will be. It's really sort of a safety concern, but we'll try to accommodate people who want to walk across the dam.
agreement people unions
Nixon tried to wrap the Soviet Union into a web of agreements that would constrain its behavior. What happened is that many people lost faith in that approach, not the least because of how the Soviets handled it.

With the growing recognition of the value of herbs, it is surely time to examine the professional therapeutic use of these herbs. There are profound changes happening in the American culture and herbal medicine, 'green medicine,' is playing an ever-increasing role in people's experience of this transformation.

america areas credible endemic expect hear information injustice lack large media music people portions radio surprise tap tend turning ubiquitous water
Media is so ubiquitous in America that we take it for granted. It's like turning on your tap and water comes out. You turn on your radio and you expect to hear music or commentary. But there are large portions of the world where people have no credible information whatsoever, and it's no surprise that these tend to be the same areas where there is endemic poverty, injustice and a lack of democracy.

access avoiding began civil clearer critical flow free infamous information longer media mention news people president role shut siege television turned violence war work
The civil war began when Azerbaijan shut down the Armenian-language television station. It's the same thing that precipitated the siege of Sarajevo when (former President Slobodan) Milosevic turned around the television transmitters so people didn't have access to news -- not to mention radio's infamous role in fomenting violence in Rwanda. The longer I work on media issues, the clearer it is that the free flow of information is critical to avoiding war.
