The South’s going to do it again | Commentary. POSTED AT 10:11 PM ON Jan. 10, 2010 (UPDATED AT 10:30 AM ON Nov. 4, 2010) We could do without the South. Let’s face it, they’re just holding us back. From outdated ideas on religion and politics to big cultural differences such as the overabundance of Southern adult bookstore billboards and the grave matter of what to call our bubbly beverages (that’d be soda), there are simply far too many differences between us and the South to make this strained relationship work. First and foremost, I have to address the pressing problem of that highly unfortunate accent. While I am perfectly aware that the speakers of certain accents or dialects speak that way through no fault of their own, I’ve chosen to go ahead and ignore that (if Republicans can ignore facts like evolution, why can’t I?)
(WARNING: Republican logic follows!) Secondly, there’s the issue of the utterly titanic chasm separating the South from the rest of the country in terms of religion and politics.

Wanted: humanitarians with a conscience- About the small steps from UNICEF to NESTLE, from PEPSICO to WHO. Within the humanitarian world, there has always been a debate about the professional profile of development or aid workers. While the world often has an image of aidworkers resembling "the long-haired hippie singing 'We are the world' with a bunch of black kids on our knees, wearing hand-knitted goat-wool socks", many of us agree that the profile of a humanitarian should be different.
Rather than "Good Intentions-only" we often look for "professionals", people who can bring an aid organisation to a operational level comparable to the commercial sector. But somewhere there is a trade-off. We can not only hire shark-like business people, "to cut our overhead and bring more aid for less money", as often this would conflict with our humanitarian mandate. So, the ideal profile of a humanitarian, in my book, is a "professional with a conscience". While my ideals stand, I can only validate them up to a certain point.
