<TD class=px15 width=400><B>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.<BR><BR>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?<BR><BR>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
<I>blackSpot</I> sneaker, the world's first grassroots anti-brand. You can
help launch the <I>blackSpot</I> revolution.<BR><BR>THE BIG
QUESTION:<BR>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?<BR><BR><A

die, show them that truth and innocence matters, show them the truth,
And you know it if I die today no one will ever take you name again on
this planet, and if you want me to die today, Oh God please forgive me
on judgement day".

Mahmud Kurchu started running towards me again, I think there was a man
who was standing right behind me. I said Allah-hu-Akbar and I jumped, as
I was leaning back on chair only the back side of my head was hitting
the stairs again and again. During the half way, one of those guys who
punched me really hard came and stood before the glass at the end of
those stairs. I though oh so it is reality. He knew there is mirror
behind him, when I reached the end of stairs I collided with him and he
flies out of window, my wheel chair stops, I was also feeling back now
in my back, sever pain. I though he was flying, he was wearing black
suit and he had this pistol with very small silencer.

My idea was if it is a dream I will hit the ground and I will wake up,
and if it isn?t, God will insha?Allah save me and the fact is he did and
Oh God I thank you ever moment for that and I know you exi
