Anyone who has switched from a dial-up modem to broadband DSL knows the advantages of DSL internet access. The differences between the two are truly astounding. When people begin surfing the internet using broadband DSL after struggling with a dial-up modem, they never want to go back to a slow and often unreliable dial-up connection.

Broadband DSL connection speeds vary, but the average DSL connection rate ranges on average between 128 kilobits per second all the way up to 1.54 megabits per second. Typical dial-up modems can't even come close to reaching typical broadband DSL speeds.

The remarkable speed of broadband DSL has made internet use more convenient, and DSL has improved the quality of many existing online activities such as shopping, banking, downloading audio and video, and gaming. Besides a notable increase in connection speed and website navigation, with broadband DSL, internet users are always connected to the world wide web. DSL provides

valuable information and online activities that remain just a few keystrokes away.

Broadband DSL saves money as well as valuable time. Broadband DSL eliminates the need for additional phone lines. People using broadband DSL are able to talk on the phone while browsing the net, and all computers within a household can surf the web independently with the use of wireless routers.

with their DSL service provider. Cables and lines are not shared by other internet subscribers, and therefore user access is private and very secure.

Broadband DSL is constantly improving as new technology is discovered and implemented. When considering the cost of broadband DSL versus the cost of dial-up, there is no comparison. The benefits of broadband DSL are immeasurable. Broadband DSL is truly the solution for businesses and consumers wanting quick and reliable internet connectivity.

ADSL: Short for asymmetric digital subscriber line, a new technology that allows more data to be sent over existing copper telephone lines. The old Dial up internet also used the phone line but used the same frequency, therefore you could not use the phone while surfing the internet. ADSL operates on a different frequency and you can use the internet at the same time. Your phone may require a simple filter to remove any white noise that can be caused by using both.

ADSL internet connection is always on, whereas with dialup internet you had to connect and sign in each time. In order to use ADSL you will need an internet service provider and a ADSL modem. With technology developing at a rapid pace, the speeds available on ADSL are increasing every few months.

US Army Casualties

Dubbed as a major offensive, the assault

on Marjah turned out to be mere photo opportunities to show the American tax payers that their money is being spent properly.

People around the world were led to imagine Marjah as a large city until a few months later when it was suddenly Discovered that Marjah was the name of an agricultural farmland in southern Afghanistan.

The number of coalition forces’ casualties in Afghanistan reached a new record in June at 103 NATO troops killed including 61 Americans.

This is despite Obama administration officials voicing confidence over the prospect of victory against local Taliban militia forces after nearly ten years of combat. Last year US officials were talking about the importance of a new strategy in which to boost troops by more than 30,000 dispatched from Iraq.

They said within a limited time period the coalition would be able to crash Taliban without any problems. Early in 2010, the US and coalition troops announced that they were ready to defeat Taliban resistance after taking over a large city called Marjah home to 300,000 residents. People around the world were led to imagine Marjah as a mid-size town until a few months later when it was suddenly discovered that Marjah was the name of an agricultural farmland in southern Afghanistan consisting of several small villages of no strategic importance for any of the warring parties.

It was also discovered in May, the US Army is actually paying Taliban fores not to attack supply lines passing from south of the border with Pakistan through Khyber Pass, a long-narrow mountainous pass where Taliban militias can easily target supply convoys.

After spending billions of US tax payers money for staying too long in Afghanistan, Obama administration officials continue to proceed with their illusions regarding the war. Top Army officials say they are now planning a major offensive against Taliban’s last stronghold in their native province of Kandahar any time soon.

On Wednesday US Army’s second in command Lt. Gen. David Rodriguez said everyone should expect more coalition casualties when the final offensive on Kandagar begins. “We are going into places that have been significant support bases for the Taliban for the past several years, and they’re going to fight hard for those, and that’s why we expect the casualties to go up,’ explained Rodriguez.

He also brushed aside any talk about failures in Afghanistan saying, ‘This is a contest of wills, there is an upward trajectory in the war.

Eurasian Gas Pipeline Projects

For years the United States tried to prevent construction of the North Stream gas Pipeline between Russia and Germany.

All of these major gas pipeline projects pose grave geopolitical consequences for US nd its status as a globalsuperpower in the years ahead.

A major geopolitical transformation is slowly emerging as two of the world’s greatest energy holders Iran and Russia proceed with their major gas pipeline projects across Eurasia.

The first section of a large undersea pipeline between the town of Vyborg in Russia and the town of Lubmin in Germany is scheduled for completion this month. The pipeline is called North Stream and runs all the way under the Baltic Sea thus avoiding territorial waters of Poland, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania.

In the past the United States government has been putting enormous pressures on successive German politicians particularly the former Gerhard Schroeder administration to refrain from joining the Russian block. But despite Washington’s strategy the second and final section of this project is due completion by next year.

Also another major pipeline called the South Stream is under study that will ultimately transfer Russian gas to southern countries of Europe from Bulgaria to Italy In Iran a new 1000 km pipeline is under construction which would supply Iranian natural gas to Pakistan and India afterwards. Washington also opposes the Peace Pipeline Project by making life too difficult for Pakistan and India, the two populous countries in great need to diversify their growing energy demands.

All of these major gas pipeline projects pose grave geopolitical consequences for US and its status as a global superpower in the years ahead. Washington is doing all it can militarily in Poland, Bulgaria, Afghanistan and Iraq to place itself in a position to influence the course of events and hopefully prevent or delay construction of those major gas pipelines.

Russia and Iran are two of the world's largest holders of natural gas, a fuel that has recent years witnessed a dramatic rise in global demands
