"It's sometimes a challenge to get teens reading for fun," said Richardson, adding that the contests "get teens thinking about summer reading early." This is the third year Cedar Mill Community Library is participating in the countywide art contest, and Richardson says "it's always fun to look at (the entries) and see what the kids are doing."
Entrants must have a library card or be able to use a parent's card. Deadline for entries is Feb. 29. Richardson advises teens to keep in mind the image will be "blown up and shrunk down," so artwork should have clean lines and not be "super busy." Submissions should be in color but be easy to translate into black and white. Pick up an entry form at the library, 12505 N.W. Cornell Road, for complete details.
Teens who create videos can enter a national contest sponsored by the company that develops the summer reading theme for libraries across the country. Details can be found at http://tinyurl.com/73vm9xs.

@"seeing as Kendrick is wearing all black, it's the complete opposite of what Elvis fans might enjoy."
Elvis is considered the king of rock music, a genre that is known to have more Caucasian fans than other races. It's a very big stereotype that white people, specifically old white people if we're talking Elvis fans. Therefore, he could be saying this isn't for the old white folks, this is for hip-hop.
Similar to his line on Money Trees: "They say your hood is a pot of gold, And we gone crash it when nobody's home"
This doesn't really explain the line for those that don't follow politics, who are these people and what do they do? I myself sure do not know the answer.

When shopping, take along a rough floor plan, photograph and room dimensions (including height, width and length) of the space you're redecorating. Measure other furniture in the room to ensure that your purchase will be compatible with the overall proportions and scale. (Be sure to wear comfortable clothing on shopping trips, as you may want to get down on your hands and knees to examine the furniture more closely.)
Always test chairs, benches and other furniture used for seating by doing just that – sitting on them. Furniture that looks great may not feel great.

PDF - Registered users only 355Kb |
BACKGROUND: In this retrospective study we evaluate the causative mechanisms underlying postoperative atrioventricular block (AVB) following mitral valve replacement and mitral valve annuloplasty. METHODS: Between January 1990 and December 2003, 391 patients underwent mitral valve replacement or ring annuloplasty and quadrangular resection. Exclusion criteria were preoperative AV block, two or three valvular procedures, reoperations and procedures combined with coronary artery bypass grafting. The presence of the postoperative AVB was compared with preoperative and intraoperative variables. On 55 post-mortem specimens the relationship between the AV node, AV node artery and mitral valve annulus was investigated. RESULTS: The mean age was 59+/-14 years and 44% of patients were female. Postoperatively AVB occurred in 92 (23.5%) patients. AVB III was found in 17 (4%) patents, in whom a pacemaker was implanted within median interval of 4 days. Second degree AVB occurred and first degree AVB in five (1.3%) and in 70 (18%) patients respectively. In dry dissected human hearts in 23% of investigated cases the AV node artery was discovered to run close to the annulus of the mitral valve. CONCLUSIONS: Data collected in this study showed that, sotalol and amiodarone as well as a prolonged cross-clamp time may slightly influence the 23% incidence of postoperative AVB. The morphological investigation showed that the AV node artery runs in close proximity to the annulus in 23% of cases. We speculate that damage of the AV node artery may play a role in development of AVB.

This review is from: Don Cherry's Hockey Stories, Part 2 (Hardcover)
This book was filled with more entertaining stories. I really enjoyed reading the first book and I enjoyed this one as well. I guess if there was something I didn't enjoy about the book it would be at the end where it's not Don's stories anymore, but his kids. Those weren't as good and it took quite a while for me to get through that, but Don's stories are always good!

John McCain's sad, bitter twilight
The senator's contempt for Chuck Hagel in Thursday's confirmation hearing was all about the guy who nominated him
Topics: The American Prospect, John McCain, Chuck Hagel, Barack Obama, Secretary of Defense, Politics News
"That one," John McCain famously snarled in a presidential debate four years ago, referring to his opponent, who was a quarter of a century younger than McCain and who had been in the Senate 3 years to McCain's 20. It's difficult to imagine a better revelation of the McCain psyche than that moment, but if there is one, then it came yesterday at the meeting of the Senate Armed Services Committee, convened to consider the nomination of Chuck Hagel as Secretary of Defense. The McCain fury is something to behold, almost irresistible for how unvarnished it is in all its forms. In the instance of the 2008 debate, McCain's dumbfounded antipathy had to do with facing an opponent he so clearly considered unworthy. In the instance of the hearing yesterday, McCain's bitter blast was at somebody who once was among his closest friends, a former Vietnam warrior and fellow Republican of a similarly independent ilk who supported McCain's first run for the presidency in 2000 against George W. Bush but then appeared to abandon the Arizona senator eight years later.
If all this suggests political differences born largely of personal dynamics and their breach, it's because for McCain the two are interchangeable. At this moment, we should make the effort to remind ourselves of what's commendable about McCain, an admiral's son who could only live up to his father's reputation by way of five years in a Hanoi jail, where he walked — or hobbled, given the crippling abuse he suffered at the hands of his captors — the walk of loyalty and didn't just talk it. When offered freedom halfway through those five years, he refused to leave behind his fellow prisoners of war who had been there longer and were due their freedom first. It's a story so formidable that 12 years ago Bush supporters resorted to suggesting McCain was a "Hanoi Candidate," brainwashed in the manner of cinematic Manchurians. So let's not question McCain's courage, or a code that means as much to him as patriotism. In that initial presidential run, admiration for the man trumped what disagreements overly romantic voters like myself had when it came time to mark his name on our ballots (as I did in that year's California primary).
Steve Erickson's new novel, "The Sea Came in at Midnight," will be published next spring by Bard/Avon.

In high school, I was obsessed with planning what I was going to wear to school every day. I would spend hours upon hours sorting through clothes, losing myself in the depths of my closet. At 13 I couldn't control my attraction to men, but I could control what shirt I was going to wear.
Straight women hang out in gay bars. Therefore, straight dudes who don't have much luck with the ladies should have better luck picking up women at a gay bar. Right? I was more than happy to test this theory.
My first gay bar was the first night of the rest of my life. Perhaps sharing our "my first gay bar" stories will reveal to those still struggling for acceptance that their community is out there, waiting for them under a silver, disco-ball moon.

Manipulating NH: Bloomberg and the terrorist
The rally was part of a national bus tour organized by Mayors Against Illegal Guns, New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg's anti-gun organization. A Guardian newspaper story about the tour reported its purpose this way: "The organisers of the bus tour hope it will sustain the public anger that surged after the killing of so many small children in Newtown, and maintain pressure on the opposing senators ahead of a possible second vote on the issue."

(AFP) – Jun 10, 2010
WASHINGTON — Human rights groups filed a complaint seeking an investigation into allegations that CIA-led medical personnel conducted research experiments on terror detainees after the September 11 attacks.
Physicians for Human Rights, which released a report this week outlining allegations of illegal human subject research and experimentation on detainees, said it filed the complaint Wednesday with seven other organizations with the US Department of Health and Human Services Office for Human Research Protections.
The office "should initiate immediately an official investigation" into the evidence, which the group said was detailed in declassified government documents.
The division, which sets guidelines for government research on humans including by the CIA, "has a legal responsibility to investigate these disturbing new allegations about the CIA and possible illegal human experimentation on detainees," said Nathaniel Raymond, lead author of the report.
The CIA has rejected the report as erroneous.
"The CIA did not, as part of its past detention program, conduct human subject research on any detainee or group of detainees," said CIA spokesman George Little earlier this week.
Joining in the complaint were Amnesty International USA, the Bill of Rights Defense Committee, the Center for Constitutional Rights, the Center for Victims of Torture, Human Rights Watch, the National Religious Campaign Against Torture and Psychologists for Social Responsibility.

States With the Most Social Small Businesses [INFOGRAPHIC]

The small business sector represents 65% of the economy -- and owners of these businesses are wise to the importance social media can play in promoting their businesses. Radius, a company providing sales intelligence for the small business market, released a report ranking cities based on the social media usage of its small business owners.

Seoul, South Korea – From the minds of the creative geniuses at renowned mobile software developer IntStorm Studios, comes an iPhone app that will forever change the way users think about reasoning games. Situation Shuffle for iPhone, available for just $0.99 at iTunes, is a reasoning game that – in surprising users during gameplay with the ability to unlock secret Shuffle Quizzes – does away with the dull and puts the fun and wild spontaneity back into problem solving games. All you have to do is arrange a set of image cards in the right sequence; but, be advised…you'll have to be super observant (and intelligent) to crack the code!
Unlike most problem solving apps, many of which provide a rigid, dreary format and a limited scope, Situation Shuffle solves the problem of dull, dry reasoning apps by offering an application that offers a wide variety of different game modes and numerical and imaging challenges. Your logic might be tested by a number-sequencing challenge; you might decide you want to challenge your I.Q.; or maybe take a stroll through the comprehensive Quiz Challenge mode. You're not likely to ever get bored with this app, as Situation Shuffle features 30 IQ quizzes, 30 extra quizzes and six Shuffle quizzes.
"We wanted to solve the problem of the usual, everyday reasoning game app – which is that, even if they are challenging, they are sometimes just so dull and stuffy and repetitive," said Lena Kwon, Manager at UbiNuri Inc.. "With Situation Shuffle, we have created a reasoning app that not only develops critical thinking skills, but is also fun to play. The interface is beautiful to look at, the image cards are really bright, and there are different modes to get lost in…Everything about this app, especially the ability to, during gameplay, unlock hidden shuffle quizzes, was designed to put the fun and spontaneity back into problem solving games."
No matter what your pleasure is when it comes to reasoning games, IntStorm Studios has your number with this unique and challenging app, available right now at iTunes for $0.99. Situation Shuffle is not just a super fun game that provides a never-ending stream of reasoning challenges, it is an app that solves the proverbial question: Where does one find a reasoning game app that is challenging, fun and spontaneous, and NOT boring?
"We think Situation Shuffle is the answer to the dull reasoning game," said Kwon, "but I guess you'll have to try it and find out for yourself. We always appreciate customer feedback, so after you try Situation Shuffle, tell us what you think!"
* Quiz selection mode
* Quiz challenge mode

Starmap App Launches New Website and Video Series
Austin, Texas – Starmap, the most expansive and professional planetarium mobile phone application available, has announced a new promotional campaign that includes a redesigned website and a series of animated and live action videos. The campaign, called "Starmap: The Universe Just Got Smaller" intends to expand its already massive user base by educating the public, explaining the apps through engaging videos, and showcasing why Starmap is still the best and most downloaded planetarium app in iTunes.
"Starmap is still the best planetarium app available on the market today," said Frederic Descamps, CEO of Starmap. "We've had a lot of success since we launched the Starmap app in 2008. This campaign is simply an effort to boost the Starmap user base even more, and reward the longtime users of the app."
The new website is set to go live on October 10, 2011. Starmap will release a series of HD live action and animated videos throughout the end of year. Frederic believes that the videos and redesigned website will further enhance the usability and incredible features of Starmap apps.
"The Starmap apps have such an expansive platform yet they are so easy to use," said Descamps. "They are the only planetarium mobile phone apps that can be used by a casual sky gazer or a professional astronomer."
The new promotional campaign also intends to show how Starmap is a far better tool than any of its competitors, which is why it has won several awards and been an iTunes "Featured" app multiple times. Starmap has been so successful for Descamps, that he has turned this mobile application suite into a viable and profitable business. To celebrate the campaign, Descamps is also offering all Starmap applications 50% off the original price for a limited time only.
Descamps is a PhD electronics/physics engineer, working in the field of scientific instrumentation. He developed the Starmap app on his own in a mere four months in his spare time. He has been an astronomer since the age of 12, and naturally gravitated towards building an app that would aid him in his profession and his hobby.
"Starmap was somehow going back to my roots," said Descamps.
Starmap currently offers four different applications: Starmap Standard, Starmap Pro, Starmap HD, and Spacemap. These highly successful apps have been praised by a number of publications and review sites including iLounge.com and Sky and Telescope magazine. The Starmap apps are available on the iPhone, iPhone Touch, and Starmap HD and Spacemap are available on the iPad. For more information, please visit www.star-map.fr or download the Starmap app from iTunes.

New mobile application works to get users out of jail fast
Northport, Alabama – Online marketing innovator Aeron Agency has announced the launch of its new mobile application Busted, available now through the iTunes App Store and the Android Market. Busted is designed for users to activate a button in the event of their arrest to contact friends or family, a bail bondsman, and an attorney; making Busted the first application of its kind and the only product on the market that can actually speed up the process of being released from jail.
"Busted starts the process of bailing you out of jail faster than an officer can drive you there," says Aeron's Apple development specialist Taylor Addison. "Busted makes all the necessary calls for you with the simple touch of a button, hours before you'll ever receive a chance to make your one phone call." Addison, currently an electrical engineering student at the University of Alabama, is co-creator of the Busted app alongside Android specialist, Austin Haskew. Originally designed with students in mind, Busted is quickly proving to be a useful tool for anyone who has been detained and doesn't have time on their side.
With the push of a bright red button on the app's interface, Busted will be activated anywhere in the United States with access to cell phone service providers. After activation, Busted calls, emails, and texts the personal contacts of the user, which are pre-selected during set-up of the app. Then utilizing GPS and Google search, Busted contacts an available bail bondsman within 20 miles of the user and informs a local attorney of the arrest.
Addison says Busted is "the best tool intended to make the difficult situation of being arrested easier. When you find yourself in a tight spot, you can have peace of mind knowing that the right people are aware of your situation. This could be the difference between being in jail for minutes and days." For users, Busted may never be activated. Yet it's always better to be prepared; especially when the user is in an unfamiliar area. Download the Busted app today from the iTunes App Store and the Android Market. Busted is unique in that it is the only product for mobile phones that employs a mechanism with the ability of making release from jail less painful.
Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad
* Requires iOS 3.2 or later
Pricing and Availability:
Busted 1.11 is only $0.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Utilities category. There is also a free Lite version available.

Peg Pals Pro – Free for Tuesday November 1, 2011
Columbia, South Carolina – Created by retired research mathematics professor, David Sumner, the app Peg Pals Pro is the only puzzle of its kind on the App Store. Its predecessor Peg Pals appeared on Apple's "What's Hot in Board Games," and "What's Hot in Puzzles."
A puzzle consists of the classic triangular board with 15 peg locations (such as those commonly seen in the Cracker Barrel restaurant). The object is to reduce the puzzle to a single peg by successively jumping a peg over an adjacent peg and into an empty location. Puzzles can vary in difficulty from requiring about 30 seconds to solve, to much more complex.
What's special about Peg Pals is that it does not restrict the user to a single-peg removed puzzle, but rather generates random – but always solvable – puzzles with varying number of pegs removed. As an option, puzzles may require that the final peg be in a specific spot. The user also has an option to use a timer and the option to show a solvable indicator that turns pink when there is no solution for the current puzzle.
Peg Pals also uses artificial intelligence search methodology to analyze positions and can tell the user how many solutions there are to a given puzzle and which moves are best in a given position. The game allows for unlimited hints and the app will show you, move-by-move, how to solve any puzzle that you like. This makes the app great for both playing and learning how to solve any such puzzle.
The game play is smooth, fluid, and nicely animated. The pieces resemble smiley faces that beam when they are about to jump, or show horror when they are about to be jumped. All settings are preserved between sessions, and the user will resume a puzzle exactly where she left off. The app includes detailed and easy to access documentation of all its features.
Features of Peg Pals Include:
* Automated generation of solvable puzzles
* Retina graphics
* Unlimited hints
* Unlimited undo's
* Optional timer
* Optional indicator turns pink if there is no solution
* Set up custom puzzles
* Completely analyze any puzzle
* Move by dragging pieces like the real game or optionally tap to move
* Graphics are designed for the retina display
* Complete documentation included
Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad
* Requires iOS 3.1 or later
Pricing and Availability:
Peg Pals Pro is available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Games category – specifically Board Games and Educational Games.

Game-Changing Essay Writing Encyclopedia Receives Top Reviews
Charlottesville, Virginia – Essay WorkStation 2.1, an essay writing encyclopedia and mobile writing platform, by Niles Technology Group, has proved to be instrumental in getting students to write better essays. Designed to address the important critical thinking aspects of writing, Essay WorkStation 2.1 teaches the skills of argument development. As colleges and high schools expect more and better writing from students, Niles Technology apps, for the iPad and iPhone, are the perfect writing solution for busy students.
Colleges, high schools and students are realizing that superior writing skills are in huge demand. However, student writing skills have not kept pace as evidenced by the increase in remedial writing classes at the collegiate level. Niles Technology's essay writing apps specifically teaches how to improve writing skills. Developed, from start to finish, with extensive teacher and student input, Essay WorkStation 2.1 does what no other essay writing product does – seamlessly directs students, step-by-step, in how to write the best essays possible. Essay WorkStation 2.1 is 258 pages on the iPad and 752 pages on the iPhone, which, by far, is the most detailed and comprehensive mobile writing product on the market.
"Our goal is rather simple; for an affordable price, to provide students with essay writing guidelines coupled with a mobile writing platform that are second-to-none," explains Michael A. Niles, president of Niles Technology Group. "It is one thing to say a product helps students, but it is another thing altogether to actually produce one that really does. Essay WorkStation 2.1, based on reviews by teachers and students, is a resounding success and does what it says."
Niles Technology apps employ a proprietary, teacher-written, teacher-designed writing system that simultaneously develops students' critical thinking and writing skills. After all, writing is the prose representation of one thoughts and ideas. Once students understand the concept of higher order essay preparation, they instinctively spend more time researching, outlining and planning their essays; and, therefore, when they write, arguments are both well-structured and supported with logical reasoning. Essay WorkStation 2.1 effectively teaches these skills.
"Creating the best educational content does not happen in a vacuum. Niles Technology is fortunate to have advisors, who are also accomplished teachers, as part of its team," continues Mr. Niles. "Our Education Advisory Board ensures that the apps stay on track in their goals and learning objectives. Niles Technology is very thankful to have them on board, and I am sure the students are as well, given the enthusiastic reception to the apps."
Niles Technology's Education Advisory Board members are distinguished in their respective fields and are also bringing their success to the mobile technology sector. The members of the Board are:
Erica Warren, EdD – Founder and Director of Learning to Learn, LLC and Good Sensory Learning – Dr. Warren is an author, learning specialist and educational therapist whose professional approach is based on the development of critical thinking skills and compensatory learning strategies, across all spectra of student ability. She offers individually tailored remedial assistance, cognitive therapy and challenging multi-sensory methods that accommodates each student's zone of proximal development. Dr. Warren is currently developing teacher downloads, consumer materials and mobile teaching applications for various learning areas.
David Epstein, MD – Founder, MediRounds, LLC – A pediatric critical care physician and assistant medical school professor, Dr. Epstein is a strong advocate of critical thinking in teaching and understands how to develop content to get the most out of students. Papers that he has authored or co-authored have received peer-reviewed "best of" accolades. MediRounds is a health-care company of the future and is currently developing the next generation of mobile medical teaching applications.
Michael Niles – President, Niles Technology Group, Inc. – Niles Technology Group is the author and creator of the Essay Czar and Achievers Writing Center essay apps, highly recognized mobile apps for college and high school students. Solidly based on critical thinking pedagogy, the apps are the most comprehensive and detailed essay writing assistance available for the iPad and iPhone. Mr. Niles serves as Chairman of the Advisory Board.
Schools and teachers have discovered the efficacy of Niles Technology apps. Each month the volume purchase of the apps increase, which indicates that the use of mobile apps in schools is becoming more commonplace. Parents have also caught on because Essay Workstation is the No. 1 gifted app in the Niles inventory. For the lower grades, Middle School Writing has become a solid No. 2 bestseller, with both parents and schools purchasing the app. The Niles app catalog can be seen in the App Store by simply entering "Niles" in the iTunes search.
Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad
* Requires iOS 3.0 or later (iOS 4.0 Tested)

Can someone please help me find these two totems? Thanks
Answer from: iwnbts
Cinteotl is inside the tent to the right at the start of level 8. you have to take the frisbee left briefly over the tent to the left, then fly to the right again to get inside the tent. I'm pretty sure I got the Patecatl trophy from a gift, you may have to upgrade your gift spawn, if you haven't already done so, to get trophies

Staten Island metal fans: do you know about "ANVIL!" ? MAROONED MUSIC
Ben Johnson
November 11, 2008, 12:20PM
I admit, I was unaware of this film until recently, even though it debuted at Sundance last winter. Obviously, it looks like a real-life version of "This Is Spinal Tap," which is to say, it looks incredible. WARNING: some strong language in this video:

Ahh yes. You know how it goes. Local Staten Island band gets out there with the hustle, eventually scoring some sort of "top spot" in a "high profile" contest with "big prizes," and you have to vote for them. Now look, I'm not going to dress it up: usually these things are scams of some sort, or set up...

Aha. Ha. Haha. I remember the days of moshing. I was at a community center dance once, rockin' it in the mosh pit to Metallica's "Wherever I May Roam," and this kid who was swinging hard punched me square in the nose. Man, was that a bloody one. He was nice though--helped me walk to the bathroom and apologized all...

It's about time. New York City has for many years been pretty much it as far as rock and roll for any musician. When I went to a Wolf Parade show at Terminal 5 recently, one of those dudes said something about how playing New York was "so intimidating." Why? Because it matters when you play here. There's a...

In response to:
Sooo..... I take it you support an Amendments Convention?
I can't wait for the food fight to begin between "Smoken Double Barrel Joe" and "The Duchess of Benghazi". The winner of the debates, as judged by the media, will be the one with the most outrageous lies. Let the games begin!
This is the best post I've seen in a long time. Thanks!
Under the promise of transparency, OBufus has probably exercised "Executive Privilege" on that executive order.
In response to:
Was there ever any doubt that this would be the outcome? Socialism is really great..... until you run out of other people's money (Margaret Thatcher).
The "uninformed" drones that support the bundler in chief don't care anything about the Constitution or the country. All they care about is their free money and free stuff. What they don't realize is that their free stuff will END, when these socialist collapse the economy. When you run out of other people's money, You are out of money!
This socialist war on energy has far reaching repercussions. Not only will we lose hundreds of thousands of coal and generating plant related jobs immediately, but utlility costs to consumers and industry will skyrocket. What few manufacturing jobs that are left, after being ravaged by NAFTA, will be lost because of higher energy costs. We are well on our way to becoming Greece II. If you want a preview of things to come in the good ole USA, watch what happens to Greece and the Euro Zone in the months to come.
Stock Broker hell, let's run him for president. Charles totally understands our political and financial history. The only thing financial our present "campaigner in chief" understands is "CONTRIBUTION" !!
Now let's not be too rough on OLD Joe. After all, he is presenting the case for a change in the white house this fall better than the RNC. He is like the conservative's secret propaganda weapon. Any rational, informed citizen, after hearing OLD Joe, will vote against all liberals.
Dear USA,
This is a very real preview of where our socialist liberal comrades are taking us. Unless we throw the National Socialist Democrats out of congress and the presidential palace in 2012, we will be Europe in 5 years. Have a nice day.

Israel & Palestine Topics
Democracy Now! stories, posts and pages that relate to Israel & Palestine
Turkey has downgraded diplomatic ties with Israel and frozen military cooperation ahead of a long-awaited United Nations report on Israel's deadly attack on a Gaza-bound aid ship in 2010. The report accuses Israel of "excessive and unreasonable" force in its attack—which killed nine people—on the Mavi Marmara ship, and says Israel should issue a statement of regret and compensate the families of the dead as well as wounded...Sep 02, 2011 | Story
In Israel, tens of thousands have joined nationwide protests against high costs of living and growing income inequality. Protesters have set up more than 40 tent encampments scattered across Israel, with as many as 120,000 people turning out to demand lower taxes and increased access to education and housing. In Jerusalem, some 15,000 gathered outside the home of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. We go to Tel Aviv to speak with Dimi Reider, an...Aug 03, 2011 | Story
Earlier this week, three Israeli missile ships and seven commando boats intercepted a French ship attempting to reach the Gaza Strip. The ship, Dignité-Al Karama, was the sole representative of the original 10-strong international aid flotilla hoping to break the blockade on Gaza and express support for Palestinians living under occupation. At least 150 soldiers were sent to sea early Tuesday morning to prevent the 10 civilian activists, the...Jul 21, 2011 | Story
Israel has passed a new law outlawing citizens and organizations from advocating for boycotts against any Israeli person or entity. The law is drawing criticism from around the world as an attack on freedom of speech. Under the new law, any person, including journalists, calling for the boycott or divestment of Israel or the occupied West Bank can be sued by the boycott's targets, without having to prove that they sustained damage. We're...Jul 21, 2011 | Story
A French boat carrying eight people as part of the 10-ship Freedom Flotilla to the Gaza Strip has left Greek waters, defying a ban imposed by Greece under heavy pressure from Israel and the United States. The small boat is the first to elude Greek authorities after two ships were stopped since Friday. Carrying humanitarian cargo, the ships are trying to reach Gaza just over a year after Israeli forces killed nine people aboard the first Freedom...Jul 06, 2011 | Story
The U.S.-flagged ship "The Audacity of Hope" left a Greek port today bound for Gaza, but the status of the 10-boat flotilla remains uncertain. At least one boat has already pulled out due to sabotage. Another is still being repaired. All 10 ships were supposed to set sail earlier this week, but the Greek government, already facing a financial crisis and public uproar over austerity measures, blocked the ships' departure under international...Jul 01, 2011 | Story
Ido Aharoni, Consul General of Israel in New York, defends the Israeli government's campaign against the flotilla, claiming there is no need for humanitarian aid to be shipped to Gaza now that Egypt has opened the Rafah border crossing. Aharoni also refuses to deny Israel played a role in the sabotage of two boats in the flotilla and refuses to promise that Israeli officials will not arrest the Democracy Now! journalists on board the flotilla...Jul 01, 2011 | Story
As the 400 international activists wait to set sail from Greece to Gaza on the Freedom Flotilla, Israeli media has been full of reports speculating about the activists' character and motivations for participating in the humanitarian aid mission. Israeli newspapers have charged that the flotilla is carrying sacks of chemicals on board because passengers plan to kill IDF soldiers. The reports come after Foreign Ministry officials informed...Jul 01, 2011 | Story
Organizers of the humanitarian flotilla to the Gaza Strip say another one of their ships has been sabotaged. The engine of an Irish ship docked in Turkey was reportedly so badly damaged it would have sunk in the middle of the ocean, threatening the lives of the passengers on board. It's at least the second flotilla vessel to be targeted this week following damage to a Greek-Swedish ship docked in a port near Athens. Activists have accused...Jun 30, 2011 | Story
Debunking the Israeli-U.S. Effort to Thwart Gaza Freedom Flotilla: "We Are Committed to Nonviolence"
In addition to fears of ship sabotage and threats from the Israeli military, the U.S. citizens trying to sail to Gaza aboard U.S.-flagged ship "The Audacity of Hope" in the humanitarian flotilla are dealing with another challenge: their own government. The U.S. Department of State has warned U.S. passengers they could face "fines and incarceration" for taking part in the flotilla, and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton appears to...Jun 30, 2011 | Story

Great Story
Jane Eyre is one of my favorite books...I first read it at the age of eleven...I struggled through it a bit, but once I had finished I was very very glad that I had started. A truly charming tale, a must-read for everybody. I decided to write my review under this particular copy (the authoritative text and whatnot) but I never read that (hehehe) so I have no idea whether it's any good or not...in the actual text it includes many, many footnotes, mostly dealing with the translations and the words of the age that aren't used any more, and I found that particularly useful. I can, of course, assure you that the actual book is so good you'll just devour it.

Simply Wonderful!
This is my favorite book. I was first introduced to this book in college and I must say that it had been an experience. This book showed many distinct views such as the feminist view, christian ethics, fairytale and even Charlotte Bronte's own life. I rate this book 5 stars!
