in a rich man's house, there's no place to spit but his face

Rethink the Cool + the Shoe
phil knight had a dream. he'd sell shoes. he'd sell dreams.
he'd get rich. he'd use sweatshops if he had to.
then along came a new shoe. plain. simple. cheap. fair.
designed for only one thing: kicking phil's ass.
the unswoosher
For years, Nike was the undisputed champion of logo culture,
its swoosh an instant symbol of global cool.
Today, Phil Knight's Nike is a fading empire, badly hurt by
years of "brand damage" as activists and culture jammers
fought back against mindfuck marketing and dirty sweatshop labor.
Now a final challenge. We take on Phil at his own game - and win.
We turn the shoes we wear into a counterbranding game. The swoosh
versus the anti-swoosh. Which side are you on?
Adbusters has been doing R&D for more than a year, and guess what?
Making a shoe - a good shoe - isn't exactly rocket science.
With a network of supporters, we're getting ready to launch the
blackSpot sneaker, the world's first grassroots anti-brand.
You can help launch the blackSpot revolution.
THE BIG QUESTION:
Is it possible to take Phil Knight's billion-dollar
marketing momentum and, in a quick judo-like move, slap
him onto the mat with the power of his own PR thrust?

amazing that we mostly only care about ourselves and our
body and our interests, shame on such humanity and such sons who would
not care about someone who brought them up with unconditional care and
affection while they were weak.
I hope the day comes when today?s society becomes more human again and
ends the days of inhuman monsters and their inhuman practises. May God
give rise to his true followers once again. wa?Salam Mohsin
Israelies have good control over Muslim women
Assalam u?Alekum,
In mid 2001, a man who claimed he was working for BBC told me that Jews
need my next generation, so it is either I give it to them voluntarily
or they will forcibly take it. I asked him how can he make me do
unlawful things when I don?t want to he said they can, they have very
good control over Muslims. He asked me my likes and dislikes, and the
next day one of my neighbour?s Muslim girl comes to my door and asks me
that she wants to learn some maths of so. Well because she didn?t bring
anything with her, so I though she was joking, this girl came into my
house forcibly and during all this period I had to stay out of my own
house. But I was lucky as I did not really understand what it mean,
apparently when someone says you don?t know maths then it means you
don?t know rude things or so. I don?t know I guess the world is r
