Christmas cake

Article Abstract:

Cheaper Christmas cakes are generally better than more expensive ones, according to a survey involving sampling 14 different cakes. The general standard was satisfactory, but some cakes did not contain enough fruit and others lacked spice or luxury ingredients such as nuts or alcohol. In terms of appearance, the best cake was the Asda Luxury Iced Brandy and Rum fruit cake. The best overall cake was the Safeway Connoisseur Christmas cake.

Five hundred years of servitude

Article Abstract:

The Columbus Quincentenary has been an occasion for indigenous peoples representing 400 ethnic groups in the Americas to demonstrate against their exploitation and oppression by European settlers. Today transnational companies and governments that deprive indigenous people's rights are seen as the direct descendants of the imperialism that conquered the new world with firearms and disease.
