In their skeletal-body-less physique
Of what hope is left for the future?
We should show humane habits
And refuse any contradictory chaos
Any that the Patriots uses us to achieve
Their self aggrandizement, very bad!
That a nation under confusion,
Without detailed assertions,
'Difficulty' is the best name ought
it should answer
Our Judiciary, not being extra-Judicial
And Patriots shouldn't corrupt us
Are we not the future hope?
We should use our 'good' creative charisma
Of creative Writing, Visual Arts, Sports etc.
To help ourselves, than contracting problems;
And trace our history, than 'modern nation'
which is like a child without a history
And like a penis-less man with a wife,
We have to fear God and Mankind we reverence,
To truly achieve our Millenium Development Goals
Are we not the future hope?

Kids Can Make A Difference (KIDS) neil jay wollman | Sep 6th, 2009
Kids Can Make A Difference (KIDS) is an innovative educational program for middle school and high school students. It helps them understand the root causes of hunger and poverty and how they as individuals can take action.
KIDS has three major components:
►Teachers’ Guide: Finding Solutions To Hunger: Kids Can Make A Difference has provided over 5,000 classrooms, religious schools, after school programs and homeschoolers with tools to help young people to understand the causes of poverty and become informed and effective citizens, realizing their own capacity to change the world. Students learn about the pain of hunger; the importance of food; the inequality of its distribution; and the links between poverty, hunger, joblessness, and homelessness. They are then given the skills to take what they have learned into their communities.
►Website: The KIDS web site is rated one of the top 20 websites for educators by Educational World. The site provides news, a hunger quiz, hunger facts, suggested books, back issues of the newsletter, the table of contents, sample lessons, program notes from the teacher guide; and
►Newsletter: The three yearly issues highlight current hunger issues, showcase student initiatives, and feature teachers' experiences teaching the KIDS program and students' experiences making a difference in their community and world.
