"Drawing on stories and lessons from her impressive foreign policy career, FOX News contributor and White House veteran KT McFarland outlines why it's time to recapture American exceptionalism and reassert our position as a global leader. President Obama will leave office with the majority Americans believing we're a nation in decline, that our economy will never recover, that we're being pushed around all over the world, and that we've lost our sense of national purpose. The President's weak and schizophrenic foreign policies are to blame for this malaise, but the good news delivered inTurning Pointis that this state does not have to permanent. Based on her experience under three presidents, particularly as a key player in Reagan's Cold War triumph, KT McFarland knows that with the right leadership and a major policy course correction, America can choose to dominate the world stage once again. Every 40 years since America's founding, our country's leaders have lost their way. But where other countries would succumb to an inevitable decline, America has always come roaring back, sweeping away the Establishment of the day and reconnecting with our core values. Most recently, we did it in 1980 with the Reagan Revolution--with KT's help--setting off one of the longest periods of peace and prosperity in American history. Drawing on her years working with Kissinger, Nixon, and Reagan, and discussing Russia, Iran, and ISIS, among many other current foreign policy issues, KT offers a prescription for how to turn America around--by fixing the economy, cutting taxes, and unleashing American innovators and entrepreneurs; reestablishing America's global leadership; and remembering not just that we are an exceptional nation, but recounting why"--

J. L. Austin (1911-1960) exercised in Post-war Oxford an intellectual authority similar to that of Wittgenstein in Cambridge. Although he completed no books of his own and published only seven papers, Austin became through lectures and talks one of the acknowledged leaders in what is called 'Oxford philosophy' or 'ordinary language philosophy'. Few would dispute that among analytic philosophers Austin stands out as a great and original philosophical genius. Three volumes of his writing, published after his death, have become classics in analytical philosophy: Philosophical Papers

This article is an appeal to South African political and ecclesiastical leaders to form a synergy in order to redress the land issue in the post-apartheid era. It surveys the historical development of land dispossession through various initiatives as a prima for national conflicts in Africa. From the Berlin Conference (1884) to 1990, when the apartheid government relocated millions of Black people to some Bantustans known as homelands, or newly created townships, the land conflicts continued. The dispossession stripped the masses of their dignity, integrity, and respect. The story of Naboth's vineyard (1 Kgs. 21) is used as a theological framework to redress the land issue. The narrative is expounded to compare the African land perspectives with those of eighth-century Israel. There is an appeal for the ecclesiastical formations to form a synergy with the political stakeholders in addressing this matter.
