Skip to comments.Timbuktu mausoleums destroyed
Posted on 12/23/2012 9:23:24 PM PST by Olog-hai
click here to read article
You can see the same work going on in Austrian churches presently on fire.
Coming soon here if Obama green lights it.
When they take over here, they'll tear down
all the shrines to Elvis too.
Now that is going too far!
Ah, yes, the "religion of pieces."
Mali was once French. Where is the Foreign Legion? Oh, I forgot, another red is running the country, right into the ground under another white flag of surrender.
Depardieu knew what he was doing when he left. Thank God the two strong women of the French film industry, Bridget Bardot and Catherine Deneuve, had the guts to speak up in his defense.
No, they'll just sanitize history. And claim that Elvis was always a muslim.
Other than weapons and hovels, have these people actually built anything recently (i.e., in the last 400 years)?
I wouldn't rule out the possibility that a few rare individuals have contributed something of value to humanity in that time, but I'll be damned if I can cite you a single instance.
"Today, Timbuktu - tomorrow, Giza!"
Actually, they never built any of their weapons either. They got them from subordinate humans.
Not a chance! This country is too spineless to do it.
I don't care which country does it. Or even if it is a country that does it. ;-)
It even tries to obliterate history.
As long as Obama is in that office, it will be a similar scenario, however, never Mecca.... it will be Israel.
Ask his army, the MB/ AlQ, and all the other muslim groups. Greater probability is him allowing the release of Iranian nuclear weapons here in America.
Freep-mail me to get on or off my pro-life and Catholic List:
Please ping me to note-worthy Pro-Life or Catholic threads, or other threads of general interest.
Its a lovely thought. Soooo lovely.
I think something more effective would be to make sure the internet is open keyed to all the repressive governments seeking to take control of the net via the UN.
Once the peeple see and better understand the west, gain some knowledge, and understand how the outside functions, their leaders will have one helluva problem.
Imagine the world of Islam understanding the culture of democracy! Just... imagine.
ROP at its very best.....bleeeech. What won't they destroy?
Islam is a war plan.
Too bad the left doesn't understand it either.
First we had the "Arab Spring."
Now we have the "Arab Spring Cleaning."
Islam is stuck in the 5th century politically and culturally. They are doing the same stupid things throughout the ages. The word, "backward" comes to mind. Stuck on stupid also comes to mind.
Most fail to recognize the Christian heritage that gave us our individualism, our rights , freedoms and liberties codified in the Magna Carta.
This is something for which the muslim world has no comparison, explaining why they are so backwards.
And we have a backwards muslim driving America..... down the drain. Their hero. Their fraud.
That's a bit of an insult to the fifth century, which had its highlightsmost significantly the retreat of the Roman Empire, especially from Britain. (Opinions of the Hunnic Empire vary, of course.)
The ways of the "religion" in question don't belong in any century, even the antediluvian ones.
my personal suspicion... it will be done by a hot head dot head. some day, some hindu is going to conclude the assault by muslims is TOO MUCH, and will pursue what he feels to be the karmic equivalent of the 72 muslim virgins. and a muslim holy site will get completely wiped out.
piles of rubble
Much of the positive contributions of Islam have come from Sufism - the people who built the mausoleums an mosques that are being destroyed. In India, a "golden age" was overseen by Sufi rulers. In that instance as in this one all the contributions were ground to dust mixed with blood by Islamic fundamentalists.
That's an interesting thought. I do think it's more likely to not come from the west. I wouldn't be surprised if it took several more decades.
The departure of the Romans from England was a highlight? That was a tragedy. They fell back into chaos, and stopped building roads until the Norman conquest.
The Romans were the best thing to ever happen to those isles.
And the egyptians are wondering why their izlamist president is having a negative effect on tourism. Heh
Indeed. A roman revival would not be a bad thing overall.
The name Obama comes to mind immediately.
I am finally ready to waste Mecca.
I'm not sure regarding the return of the Roman Republic. We have a republic now, such as it is. However if we might dicuss the calling forth of a Lucius Quinctius Cincinnatus-like personage from the 'heartland' I might be receptive of the idea. I find swearing loyalty and striking the breastplate in salute to the 'Nero' we have unspeakable, repugnant and beyond my ability. Cinncinatus? SPQR

Well, I meant the ideal. Power and justice and so on. Not Christian or Judaism for sure, but was strong and powerful for a long time. A great turning point in early history.
Muslims are the human equivalent of cockroaches.
"The Romans were the best thing to ever happen to those isles."
That's just silly; there is no cultural trace that Rome had even been there. For Ireland/Scotland, Rome never WAS there.
If Latin (or Italian) was the worldwide language of business today, you'd have a point.
Sad. Mali is a beautiful country. Hate to see what is happening there.
If I could push one button to obliterate that entire group of subhuman, murderous filth, I'd do it.
"The other significant 5th-century event in Britain was the arrival of the Anglo-Saxons."
That was a critical point in Britain's history, and left a much deeper impression on the island (most specifically the English language itself - spoken much more widely than Italian). Immediately prior to the Norman invasion, the Saxon king Harold had just defeated a Viking invasion and had to double-time to meet the Normans; accounts of the battle of Hastings, in which Harold was killed, indicate a battle the Normans very nearly lost. The Saxons snatched defeat from the jaws of victory by breaking their shield wall (which had held for the duration of the battle) and charging. A special Norman unit was then able to kill Harold, and rather than be driven back to Normandy for lack of supplies the Norman forces were able to win the day.
These were hardly barbarian invasions; William was familiar with Harold and thought he was the rightful heir to Harold's throne (they had made some agreement years earlier).
India's capital is currently in their third day of riots over Muslim gang-rapists.
Ah, the cosmopolitan Mohammedan pigs strike again—part of their never-ending quest to bring back the 7th century.
"Other than weapons and hovels, have these people actually built anything recently..."

Sendmail, Inc. Commitment
Sendmail, Inc. offers a commercial-grade platform that is vendor-agnostic and allows diverse, best-of-breed applications to be managed in a unified framework, the Sentrion Email Integration Platform. Sentrion helps reduce the time spent managing and integrating point solutions and vastly enhances functionality and performance.
While the Sentrion platform is specifically designed with large, complex environments in mind, we make a subset of that solution available as an open source offering. For over 25 years we have championed the belief that everyone should have access to the sophisticated tools and technologies required to run a more secure and efficient email environment. This includes companies that are too small to afford, the scholars who need a platform to experiment on, and the students and heroes who have not yet convinced their companies to modernize their infrastructure with an industry recognized platform like Sentrion.
Sentrion is not for everyone, but if you are using open source for a large complex environment and need an enterprise platform that will enable your messaging roadmap for years to come (virtualization, consolidation, cloud migration, etc.), download the product specs or request a demo to see if Sentrion is right for you.

Other Bradley Manning solidarity events:
Pentagon Papers whistleblower Daniel Ellsberg and filmmaker Michael Moore invite you,
On April 3rd, Icelandic Parliamentarian, activist WikiLeaks contributor and "poetician" Birgitta Jonsdottir is making her first visit to the United States since the release of the "Collateral Murder" video. This video is one of the most graphic and devastating pieces of journalism from the war in Iraq. Bradley Manning, who has now been in jail for over 1000 days without trial, leaked this video to raise awareness.
On Friday April 5th, we invite you to an evening of art and discussion to sow the seeds of resistance against illegal imperialist wars, and to discuss the present state of free speech and freedom of the press. Your presence at Judson Memorial Church would send a clear signal that we the people value truth and stand against the unbelievable lack of ethics and accountability this, and other leaks, consistently reveal.
Doors will open at 5:30 PM, for two hours of drinks, refreshments, and artwork , including stills from Collateral Murder, art prints by Molly Crabapple, and Laura Poitras's five-minute documentary.
Then at 8 PM, we'll move to a discussion among Birgitta, independent journalist Alexa O'Brien, FireDogLake's Kevin Gosztola, and FAIR media critic Peter Hart, moderated by Sam Seder.
See more information about their discussion here, and see how to bid on Molly Crabapple's art prints of Bradley Manning here.
Birgitta and comrades will be speaking in order to raise awareness about Bradley and raise funds for his defense. Along with helping Bradley we would like to help the families in Iraq effected by this war crime, and Ethan McCord the soldier on the scene in the video who helped the injured children – he now has severe PTSD. In interest of sparking discussion and more shifts in awareness levels printed stills from the video will be on exhibit for the very first time.
Please come stand with Birgitta Jonsdottir and support hero Bradley Manning and the ethics and values he so clearly embodies.
RSVP for this event by emailing: email@example.com

"PHA's research program has yielded an explosion of understanding about PH that was not known before." – John Newman, MD, Vanderbilt University Medical Center
"PHA's research program has yielded an explosion of understanding about PH that was not known before." – John Newman, MD, Vanderbilt University Medical Center
Twenty years ago there were no pulmonary hypertension treatments available. Through focused research there are now fourteen PH-specific treatments with more in development. But we know that your ultimate wish is for a cure, and that is why PHA will continue to support the work of researchers until the day when no one suffers from PH.
PHA's Research Program has committed more than $17 million for PH research by leveraging partnerships with the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) and the American Thoracic Society (ATS). We have supported 70 promising researchers through four independently reviewed, cutting-edge research programs.
View a recording on PHA Classroom of a May 2015 webinar in which Dr. Ioana Preston of Tufts Medical Center covers the current treatments available for PH as well as new treatments in the pipeline.
PHA's Scientific Leadership Council's Education Committee has put together comprehensive fact sheets on all the treatments available for pulmonary hypertension.
Stay informed about ongoing clinical research pertaining to evaluation and treatment of pulmonary hypertension through PHA's PH clinical trial listings, and be sure to post information about the PH clinical trial work you are doing.
Every issue of Pathlight, PHA's quarterly magazine, features a Research Corner with information about some of the latest research.
From Brigham and Women's Hospital - A new study published in EMBO Molecular Medicine by researchers from Brigham and Women's Hospital (BWH) sheds light on the disease's surprising cause, with crucial implications for diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of PH in persons at risk. Read more.
From PipelineReview.com - Yesterday, key long-term outcome data from Actelion's pivotal selexipag (Uptravi®) Phase III GRIPHON study were shared during an oral presentation at the American College of Cardiology (ACC) Congress in San Diego, Calif. The presentation highlighted that the investigational drug selexipag significantly reduced the risk of a morbidity/mortality event by 40 percent versus placebo (p<0.0001) in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Read article
(CNW) - The Pulmonary Hypertension Association of Canada (PHA Canada) was pleased to learn that a new treatment option for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is now being publicly funded in the province of Quebec. On October 1, the Institut national d'excellence en santé et services sociaux (INESSS) recommended that the drug Opsumit (macitentan) be added to the list of drugs covered by the prescription drug insurance plan administered by the Régie de l'assurance maladie du Québec (RAMQ). Read the full press release
We are excited to announce that we have accredited our first six Pulmonary Hypertension Care Centers (PHCC). This initiative aims at improving overall quality of care and ultimately improving outcomes of patients with pulmonary hypertension. Two types of centers will be accredited: Centers of Comprehensive Care (CCC) - the first six are listed below - and Regional Clinical Programs (RCP). For interested centers, the PHCC Application is now open and available for download. Many PH programs have already submitted their application, and you can track their progress on the Applicant Center page. Quality Care from Experts in the Field "The PHCC will give PH patients security in knowing they are receiving quality care from the experts in the field," said Dr. Murali Chakinala, from the Washington University School of Medicine and PHCC Committee Chair. "Patients can feel confident that the PHCCs have been vetted by a rigorous process that includes a detailed application and a comprehensive site visit with ultimate adjudication by a Committee of more than 20 health professionals with vast experience in caring for PH patients." PHA's Scientific Leadership Council and the PHCC Oversight Committee set high parameters for PHCC accreditation. PHCC accreditation signifies that a PH program has demonstrated a dedication to making proper diagnosis and capacity to appropriately and comprehensively manage PH patients through a set of criteria established by the PHA Scientific Leadership Council – 28 global leaders in the field of pulmonary hypertension. These criteria have also been developed with input from many PH stakeholders including physicians, allied health care professionals, patients and PHA leadership and are considered essential to delivering high-quality care for these complex patients. Patient Registry for Determining Effective Care Accredited PH Care Centers will also contribute to a PH patient registry that will track diagnostic and treatment patterns at a national level, ultimately demonstrating quality improvement for the care of PH patients. "The PH patient registry will provide important data on the care and outcomes of patients with pulmonary hypertension across the country," said Dr. Steven Kawut of the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania. "We can then begin to understand best practices in the treatment of PH and continue to improve the quality of life and survival of individuals with this disease." Linking Centers through a national network will increase collaboration in the PH community, through clinical, quality improvement and investigative partnership. First Six Accredited Centers

THIS would have been great fun:
It�s one of the great untold stories of the 2012 presidential campaign, a tale of ego and intrigue that nearly upended the Republican primary contest and might even have produced a different nominee.
As Mitt Romney struggled in the weeks leading up to the Michigan primary, Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum almost agreed to form a joint �Unity Ticket� to consolidate conservatives support and topple Romney.
�We were close,� former Representative Bob Walker, a Gingrich ally, said. �Everybody thought there was an opportunity.�
�It would have sent shock waves through the establishment and the ...

No matter that the targets were groups I consider wacky and bad for America, THIS SORT OF THING is outrageous:
Senior Internal Revenue Service officials knew agents were targeting tea party groups as early as 2011, according to a draft of an inspector general�s report obtained by The Associated Press that seemingly contradicts public statements by the IRS commissioner.
The IRS apologized Friday for what it acknowledged was �inappropriate� targeting of conservative political groups during the 2012 election to see if they were violating their tax-exempt status. The agency blamed low-level employees, saying no high-level officials were aware.

"Need help overriding some of ActiveScaffold's css properties."
The general census around the room is that ActiveScaffold has been painful and we should think about replacing it with normal "scaffolding" functionality. Short of that, if anyone has experience with ActiveScaffold, please step forward.
On a clean project, setting up RubyMine 681 (possibly 535 as well?) with RSpec 1.12 only worked when RSpec was installed in the vendor/plugins directory. Others have had luck with RSpec installed only as a gem.
RubyMine 681 file renaming is broken.
Two cool new features in RubyMine 681 are the Gem Manager and Extract Method Refactoring.
Running gem env from a terminal on Mac OS X often has two GEM PATHS: a sudo'ed one and a non-sudo'ed one. It's helpful to delete the non-sudo'ed one and only install gems using sudo (or geminstaller -s).

I'm becoming used to conversations with Luke about Tour Divide and what it will take to finish it. �Its all�theoretical�for me, since I'll be following his progress from the�comfortable�chair at my desk, but for Luke its becoming a question of survival. �For example, tent vs. Bivy sack. �I couldn't imagine sleeping in a waterproof bag night after night, but Luke was seriously thinking about taking a bivy over a tent since it would be easier to pack.
Luke's�preparation�could be broken down into 2 distinct areas, body and gear. �He began his body training about 8 months ago when he started pursuing longer rides over fast rides. �Over the fall and winter this has morphed into weighted down endurance rides on hilly gravel roads in awful conditions, usually around 50-60 miles, and often times after a 12 hour shift. �Now that he's down to 3 months he's planning on putting in some consecutive 100 plus days in similar conditions.
He has avoided any sort of "structured training" such as the intervals recommended by our local racing guru. �He has become somewhat worried about the extend of his training. �Many of those who have been blogging about their Tour Divide�preparation�have hired coaches and done extensive structured training. �One rider even commented on how his coach banned music while training because it would take his mind off his pedal stroke.
As both Luke's technical�adviser�and secondary coach I have told him not to worry about those dorks and continue riding. �I�recommended�he strap more weight on his bike and ankle weights on his legs. �I keep reminding him how Rocky trained to fight Ivan Drago, he didn't rely on the man and his machines, he got country strong by running in the snow and lifting heavy rocks.
Now just as important as training your body is the logistical�preparation�to complete the Divide. �Luke has pretty much wore every part on his bike out in the last 8 months getting ready for the Tour. �I have personally supplied him with two Shimano Bottom Brackets afters he's grinded the bearings out of his. �We've discused the ins and outs and bar end shifters, brifters, in comparison to standard trigger shifters. �We've looked at alt handlebars like the Salsa Woodchipper, and I even supplied him an old wore out set of aerobars to use.
Luke has trained his body to be so�efficient�with calories that he will need almost no food on the tour. �Just the other day he did 55 miles on one half eaten granola bar that he borrowed from me. �He has been learning to breath through the mouth to extract water vapor from the air. �He's learned how to pack everything he'll need into 3 small bags that will weight about 35 pounds when he's loaded down.
So is he ready? �I don't honestly think there is anyway to get ready to do Tour Divide, you just get as tough and prepared as you can. �I'm sure that there is little more physically possible Luke could do to get ready. �He's got some week long tours planned for the Spring to test his setup out, which should reveal what needs to be worked on.
So here's a question for you, what one non essential item would bring on a 2700 mile bicycle tour?

For Family at Tipping Point, A Safety Net—and Hope
For the past two years, the Minevas' downward spiral has mirrored Bulgaria's economic decline—and now both have reached a critical tipping point. Mihaela, 40, proud mom of 15-year-old Monica, never imagined her family would plunge into poverty. In 2010, Mihaela's husband lost his construction business and abandoned the family. The same year, her father lost his small grocery shop and suffered a heart attack.
