Winter didn''t come; it was. Snow didn''t set; it was the ground. Night didn''t grow cold; it was always cold. Gone were the days of golden leaves falling in autumn. Gone were the light greens of sprouting plants in spring. Gone was the sun. Gone was the warmth. Gone was the light. In this silence, the forest watches. Ancient power stirs. Veins pulse. Blood falls. This is a tale about more than survival. When the cold snaps, we snap back.

Throughout his campaign in 1992, Mr Clinton made bold and far-reaching promises. He worked carefully to take credit for what he had not done, and to distance himself from the negative things he had done. Whether Bill Clinton was talking about his promises to the middle class, denying an affair with Gennifer Flowers, or making one of his many false pledges to balance the budget, there was one central flaw that ran to the core of the Clinton technique: dishonesty. Now, as Bill Clinton begins another campaign of broken promises in his second bid for the presidency, it is imperitive that he be taken to task for what he has failed to do. To quote a statement Bill Clinton made on the campaign trail in 1992, It''s read my lips all over again. Except this time we can read the record. I have striven to show that the very words of Bill Clinto are the best evidence of his deceit, corruption and indecision.

Reprint of the original, first published in 1842.

This paper examines one aspect of the Goldwater - Nichols Department of Defense Reorganization Act of 1986: communications from combatant commanders, through the Secretary of Defense, to the President. The 3 October 1993 firefight between US forces from Task Force Ranger and Somalia irregulars aligned with Mohammad Aided will serve as a case study for this project. Beforehand, the combatant commander requested armor (for force protection purposes) "up the Goldwater-Nichols chain of command." The Secretary of Defense denied that request - but the President (the person ultimately responsible) never knew. Subsequent congressional testimony revealed that the requested armor might have made a difference. Accordingly, this paper examines the then existing chain of command processes (which had developed over the past 40 years); whether the President''s constitutional function as Commander in Chief was well served by those processes; and ultimately suggests improvements to the same.

For two decades, the consensus explanation of the British Industrial Revolution has placed technological change and the supply side at center stage, affording little or no role for demand or overseas trade. Recently, alternative explanations have placed an emphasis on the importance of trade with New World colonies, and the expanded supply of raw cotton it provided. We test both hypotheses using calibrated general equilibrium models of the British economy and the rest of the world for 1760 and 1850. Neither claim is supported. Trade was vital for the progress of the industrial revolution; but it was trade with the rest of the world, not the American colonies, that allowed Britain to export its rapidly expanding textile output and achieve growth through extreme specialization in response to shifting comparative advantage.
