Posted on 18. Feb, 2010 by in History

The nature of God in Christianity is a debate fraught with difficultly. Chief among these difficulties is the establishment and nature of the Trinitarian doctrine.

Posted on 18. Feb, 2010 by in Organized Crime

If Ed Vrdolyak has not been assigned a new judge yet for his resentencing, I discovered the judge he had better pray for U.S. District Judge Joan Gottschall. Her Honor cited former Governor George Ryan’s sentence when she decided to give “The King of Melrose Park” (what a wonderful turn of phrase Mr. Scott Drury) [...]

Posted on 16. Feb, 2010 by in Organized Crime

There used to be a racing competition known as IROC. No, I’m not referring to the infamous Camaro model, rather the competition (the International Race of Champions) that inspired it.

In the recent wake of yet another child abuse scandal, Pope Benedict XVI spoke out strongly, condemning the unconscionable actions of predator clergy. He said that while it is the duty of the Church and her followers to protect children, “unfortunately, in different instances, certain of its members went against this commitment and violated rights.” [...]

The ‘No Nose’ Knows Better Than John ‘Teflon Don’ Gotti

Posted on 09. Feb, 2010 by in Organized Crime

John ‘No Nose’ DiFronzo and John ‘Teflon Don’ Gotti are like night and day. DiFronzo likes to kill quietly, Gotti liked to kill with a bang. DiFronzo drives a pickup truck. Gotti was chauffeured around in a sedan. DiFronzo dresses like a sales clerk that works at a cheap shoe store. When he goes out [...]

Okay, I am not going to waste your time and report what is going on with Mr. Cohen. His life story has been in the media for the last few days. You and I know it forwards and backwards. I am not going to get in to the reasons why Cohen should drop out of [...]

The Line Between Legitimate News And The Blogosphere Continues To Blur

Posted on 05. Feb, 2010 by in Analysis, Current Events

As another birthday celebration for KTF Media comes rolling around, a major question as to the worth of internet publication is foremost in my mind.
