(source) ex•ploi•ta•tion: utilization of another person or group for selfish purposes. American Heritage Dictionary To exploit someone means to take unfair advantage of that person.

There's an awful lot of kinds of exploitation out there. You got your blaxploitation, your sexploitation, your nazisploitation, your drugsploitation, but sometimes someone comes along and does something entirely new that carves it's own category. Tonight's film is one of those ground breakers that proves that less is indeed still less. That all it takes is a couple of brash young film makers to

At a time when there is so much concern about the exploitation and early sexualisation of children, Australian photographer Bill Henson has decided to display his art of naked pre-pubescent children.

The country exploited 722,000 tons of aquatic products in the first four months, 34.38% of the yearly target and a decrease of 1.81% year on year, said the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development.

BBC reported, Chinese police have rescued more than 100 village children sold to work as slave labourers in the booming southern province of Guangdong.This show the greed of the businessman in China and their no-holds barred business approach.

Kaliti Blog (April 14) - I have been observing the increasing sexual exploitation of refugees in Kampala. The concerns are increasingly worrying. Rumors are no longer rumors as these issues are openly discussed among young female asylum seekers who are regularly being pressurized to do sexual favors and/or to pay bribe by refugee workers employed by intergovernmental agencies in Kampala.I, myself, have experienced the pressure and I am outraged by the behavior of some male officers who directly and indirectly ask for sexual favor in order to speed up my asylum case.I have also been in contact with several other young females especially from Ethiopia and Eritrea who have categorically been under similar pressure by these Ugandan officers who deal with asylum cases. However, many of these yo

Democrat Andrew Young is the former mayor from Atlanta and also was the first African American ambassador to The United Nations. He was once appointed to pastor a church in Marion, Alabama and was also a friend and ally of Dr. Martin Luther King.From these accomplishments, you would guess him to be a respectable picture for morality. However as of late, you would be wrong-that is unless you count honesty as the only virtue.In a recent video for "The Newsmaker Journal" he talks about his support for Democratic presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton over Barack Obama. In the video he brags about Bill Clinton's sexual relationship with numerous black women and talks about the defense committee that Hillary formed to neutralize women that Bill was involved with during his campaign for the presidency.I have a feeling that Hillary is not too happy with Young's public endorsement of her. I guess he strayed from the Clinton campaign strategy that honesty is not always the best policy.Bel

If you take your time to watch the videos below I think you will consider what kind of textiles you purchase. Cotton is not as fluffy as you may think. The cotton industry in Uzbekistan, the second largest exporter in the world, is responsible for enormous ecological and human suffering. During harvest season the schools are shut down and the children are sent to the fields to collect the cotton under slave like conditions. Due to irresponsible water usage of the cotton industry the Aral sea has almost disappeared, only 15% remaining.

The worms he combats with the pesticides grow resistant and the soil gets worse year by year, which means that he needs to increase amounts of pesticides he uses and eventually he has to upgrade to even more potent and toxic products. The pesticides are expensive and many farmers get indebted to the pesticide providers. Some farmers end up committing suicide by

Colonialism may have ended in the middle of the 19th century, but foreign powers still exert a great influence over the African continent. Although the methods of intervention are different, the motives have remained unchanged. Instead of colonial governments, the major players are vast multinational corporations that seek to tap Africa's abundant natural resources.On such an expansive subject as resource exploitation, an all-inclusive depiction of the present situation is a highly ambitious endeavor. Africa is a vast continent with numerous states and tremendous biodiversity, and the numerous differences serve only to make the existing picture even more amorphous. For this reason I will focus upon the Democratic Republic of the Congo, a nation with enormous levels of unrealized potential.Known as Zaire from 1971-1997, the Democratic Republic of the Congo was formerly a Belgian-administered colony. A wave of nationalist sentiments in the 1950's led to the first parliamentary election

Wendell Willick, co-founder and CEO for real estate marketing and technology provider Point2 Technologies, resigned his position last week and this week entered a guilty plea for sexual exploitation of a teen from January 1996 to November 1999 while serving as a church elder in the teen’s congregation, according to news reports and court records. Willick is scheduled to be sentenced at 1:30 p.m. on Oct. 5 in Queen’s Bench Court in Saskatoon, Canada. He faces a maximum sentence of five years, according to Kristen Crowell, a spokeswoman for Saskatchewan Law Courts.

How long have you been reading this blog? How many breaths have you taken? How long have I been reading this blog? How many breaths have I taken since I sat down to peruse and surf around the blogosphere?I recently read an interview with Sam Storms regarding his new book, Signs of the Spirit. As its subtitle reveals, this work is "an interpretation of Jonathan Edwards' Religious Affections." Though he recognizes the enduring nature of Edwards' original, Storms is burdened to 'translate' Edwards for a new generation. Storms confesses that Edwards' thought has greatly impacted him. But he also reveals that Edwards' life has had a similar effect:I don’t know if Edwards would cope well in today’s world. I certainly think most of us wouldn’t have coped well in his world. In any case, he is a standing rebuke to our wasting of time, our trivial pursuits, our failure to redeem each day for God’s glory, our lack of care in what we eat and drink, and our tendency to squander

Remember When Workers In Meatpacking Plants Earned A Respectable Living?Former employees are suing Swift & Co. for $23 million, alleging the meatpacking company conspired to keep wages down by hiring illegal workers.The 18 former employees are legal residents who worked at a plant in Cactus, Texas, north of Amarillo. The plant was one of six facilities - including one in Marshalltown, Ia. - raided in a multistate federal sweep that led to the arrests of nearly 1,300 employees and temporarily halted Swift's operations."These plaintiffs are ... victims in a long-standing scheme by Swift to depress and artificially lower the wages of its workers by knowingly hiring illegal workers," said their lawyer, Angel Reyes.The lawsuit was filed late Friday against Swift, based in Greeley, Colo., and investment firm HM Capital Partners LLC, in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas.
