"We all get so involved in our silly little lives that we have made for ourselves to where we don't have the time to do anything for God," says Travis, age 12. Worship is the way we see God's larger purpose for us. A life of worship usually doesn't make media headlines, but even the smallest things done in relation to God are significant because they're part of a grand plan. Saying you don't have time to worship God is like saying you don't have time to breathe. If you don't breathe, you die. If you don't worship, you'll wither and live small. Oxygen deprivation does strange things to your head. I once flew to La Paz, Bolivia, which is almost 12,000 feet above sea level. For the first 24 hours, I...

Bolivia ~ An Historical Background To completely appreciate the nature of Bolivia's political climate and social structure you have to take the time to review the fairly complex history it shares with most of South America. Long before the arrival of the Spanish to the South American continent, the Bolivian Highlands shared the Andean culture with its neighbors on all sides. The Andean region is said to have been inhabited for over 13,000 years, but it was only around the second century BC that civilization began to flourish around the southern end of Lake Titicaca, the highest commercially navigable lake in the world, with a surface area of 8,372 square kilometers. The southern end of the lake was...

I was thinking the other day that soon, I would have to start making plans for my next vacation. So there I was looking through my world atlas for a destination of my dreams flipping through the pages when I came across a map of North America and there it hit me. At a rate of one State a year, it would take 50 years to explore the US, 50 American Vacations that would not even scratch the surface of this great big land of ours. Indeed I remember visiting the Grand Canyon with my wife last year when we thought that one week of exploration through this incredibly beautiful land had only enabled us to see but a mere fraction and we had promised each other to return another year. I remember thinking...

Members of the Bolivian Senate have ended a week-long boycott and approved President Evo Morales' controversial plan to redistribute land to the nation's landless poor. The plan was approved Tuesday night when three opposition senators voted with 12 senators from the president's ruling Movement Toward Socialism (MAS) party. The vote came after thousands of Bolivia's indigenous Indians marched on the capital city of La Paz to support the measure. Many of them had marched for several weeks across several hundred kilometers. Conservative lawmakers walked out of the Senate chamber last week to block the reform, which is opposed by large landowners from Bolivia's eastern agricultural region of Santa Cruz...

Cyprus is a beautiful island but is also one that has been involved in a lot of political turmoil over the past few decades. Northern Cyprus has been the focus for much of the tension - we take a look at whether the area is worth visiting. Cyprus gained independence from the United Kingdom in 1960 but in 1974 a section of northern Cyprus was invaded by Turkish forces. The resulting occupation has led to many Cypriots being displaced from their homes. The aftermath of the invasion saw much debate as to the rights and wrongs of the situation, with there being considerable tension between Greeks and Turks. For many decades, the southern section of the island (known as the Republic of Cyprus) has been...

Mention the word "Siberia," and images of gulags, frozen tundra and wastelands may come to mind. While there is some truth to these, my impressions of Siberia included more. Siberia comprises more than 75 percent of modern Russia. Unless you visit, there is simply no way to describe the total landmass of this much-maligned area of the world. To give you some perspective, consider the fact that Siberia is bigger than Canada, has more natural resources than any area of the world, spans nine time zones and contains the largest plain in the world. One of the best ways to give you an impression of the size of Siberia is to discuss the infamous gulag system. When one thinks of a gulag or prison, visions...

Imbalance of Ecosystems and Its effect on Public and Livestock health Dr.Kedar Karki M.V.St. (Preventive veterinary Medicine) Central Veterinary Laboratory Tripureshwor The health of humans, like all living organisms, is dependent on an ecosystem that sustains life.

The consequences of ecosystem degradation to human health are numerous, and include...
