Danilo Perez and Somi at the Kimmel Center
Illustrative of the entire set was the group's rendering of the Dizzy Gillespie/Kenny Clarke
Perez is a superb pianist and band leader, and one of the most productive musicians in the business. He put together a fabulous group for this occasion and let them go all out. However, exception can be taken to the way he tried to warm up the audience by getting them to clap and sing on several occasions. It is not the sort of thing to do with the likes of Haddad and Mahanthappa playing. They are not your ordinary salsa band! While these gentlemen took the campy gesture with grace, the world needs frequent reminders that jazz music can be as holy and heavenly as classical music and should be listened to with as much reverence, especially with such brilliant and creative musicians performing.
Another somewhat distressing note was that the concert occurred amidst talk that the Kimmel Center, due to the economics of the recession, let go of its vice president for programming, Tom Warner, who is a dear friend of jazz, not to mention all music that meets high standards. Coincidentally there are rumors that the "Jazz Fridays" Program, of which this concert was part, is being disbanded. This is virtually the only series in Philadelphia that features high-profile jazz players on a regular basis. Given that the stated mission of the Kimmel Center is to serve the community, it appears that the jazz flank of that community is being short-changed. All jazz lovers in this city and its suburbs should contact the Kimmel Center and make known the inestimable value of the Friday Night Jazz series, expressing hope that it will continue.

WNYC Reporter Arun Venugopal reports on the dueling rallies held Sunday over the proposed Islamic cultural center and mosque in lower Manhattan and Bobby Ghosh, senior editor at Time Magazine, talks about the role anti-Muslim sentiment plays in the opposition to Park51 development.
if someone who killed a doctor who performed abortions calls themselves a christian and says they did it because they did it on religious grounds we would not stop the building of a christian church in the same area?!?!?!?!
@ Harry from Brooklyn from NYC -
You state: "I know that both Presidents Bush and Obama have stated several times that the United States is not at war with Islam (but then whom are we at war with)."
...and then answer your own question: "Radical Islam" is at war with us and has been at war with us long before 9/11."
Fair enough, and fair enough to "question Muslim leaders of where they stand on various issues."
But your leap to rabid anti-Islam rhetoric and sentiment is all over the place and conflates all extremists with all Muslims. One minute your explaining the longstanding peace and good citizenship that Muslim Americans have given to the U.S., the next you're spouting off against radical, extremist Islamists.
They're not the same and it is just irresponsible to lump everyone all together...unless of course that is an intentional rhetorical trick to forward your argument.
By definition, extremists are those outside the mainstream, which of course describes al-Qaeda and jihadists. You can't have it both ways.
In the end, I'm much more worried about you and your anti-constitutional, anti-American rhetoric against entire religions than normal, peace-loving American Muslims (and a Sufi center at that).
This is a city where the Rachel Corrie play could not be staged. How could one expect a place for muslims to be built. The so called bastion of tolerance and multiculturalism is not as advertised. As Bob Marley said " dont let dem fool ya"
I am surprised about the comparison of Islam to the KKK as expressed by Newt Gingrich and others. Members of the KKK were Christians that burned crosses on lawns, and committed acts of domestic terrorism. No one confused Christianity with the KKK. Lets not confuse Islam with Al Qaeda,
Harry from Brooklyn continued.
Just to name a few and their position in the Islamic Terror Network;
1) Adnan Shukrijumah: The long-time Florida resident, who obtained a green card while living in the U.S. for more than 15 years, has replaced 9/11 planner Khalid Sheikh Mohammad as chief of al-Qaida's terror operations.
2) Adam Gadahn: The California-born Muslim convert assists Shukrijumah and Osama bin Laden as al-Qaida's chief propagandist. He tailors the group's message to American Muslims, as well as disaffected minorities ripe for conversion.
3) Anwar Awlaki: Articulate and media savvy, the American-born cleric is al-Qaida's top recruiter of Western suicide cells. Awlaki has called on American Muslims to turn against their government, and has even justified killing American civilians. "Jihad against America is binding on every other (American) Muslim," he said
4) Samir Khan: A U.S. citizen who grew up in New York and Charlotte, N.C., the Web-savvy 24-year-old is now in Yemen helping Awlaki target American audiences as al-Qaida's newest propagandist. Khan is editor of al-Qaida's splashy new organ, "Inspire," a Webzine that provides jihadists step-by-step instructions in English on making bombs that can elude bomb-sniffing dogs.
5) Omar Hammami: The ex-Baptist convert to Islam grew up in the Alabama suburbs before joining al-Qaida. He's now, at 25, a field commander in Somalia, another key al-Qaida hot spot, where he's recruiting and training U.S. jihadists. His trainees include dozens of Minneapolis college kids, including one who earned the dubious title, "first American suicide bomber."
In light of the above it is perfectly reasonable to question Muslim leaders of where they stand on various issues. Especially since the so-called moderates of the Muslim establishment are sitting on their hands. It's just a matter of time before a homegrown nut inspired by a radical mosque or Web site overcomes their bomb-making learning curve and successfully detonates one, blowing up a building or a mall or a plane inside America. And then we'll all wonder why more wasn't done to shut down these sites. Of course, by then we'll be sweeping up the remains of victims, and it will be too late.
Dear Brian,
I have a problem with calling anyone concerned about any issue with Islam an "Islamophobic". It implies that the person with the concern has a phobia which is defined as a mental illness, thereby ending any reasonable conversation.
There are many legitimate questions and concerns regarding the Park51Project and Islam in America today. It is no more bigoted to ask hard questions of Muslims than it is to ask a Pro-Life Christian organization what their position is on using violence to prevent abortions and demand of them to say so in public.
Islam is not new to America. Islam has been practiced in and has had Mosques in the US since at least the mid 19th. century; if not longer. In the past 150 years, native Muslims have lived peacefully and were left in peace to practice their religion, build Mosques and Muslim Centers.
The problems with Islam are relatively new. They predate 9/11/01 by at least 30 years, when Saudi Arabia started funding new Mosques and schools in the US. This is also when a major influx of Muslims from Arabic countries made their way to our shores. A large percentage of these new Muslim immigrants had no intention to integrate into American society (the so called melting pot). They migrated to regions, cities and neighborhoods where they could continue to be Arabs (or Pakistani, Bangladeshi, etc.) who just happened to live in the United States.
This in itself is not a problem. After all the Orthodox Jews of Williamsburg and the Amish in Pennsylvania are also living a life apart to some extent. The difference is that these two groups (and others like them) are not trying to take down the host country as some of the Muslims do.
I know that both Presidents Bush and Obama have stated several times that the United States is not at war with Islam (but then whom are we at war with). However the reality is that Islam, at least "Radical Islam" is at war with us and has been at war with us long before 9/11. A problem is how to define Radical Islam. Is it just al-Qaida and its active supporters or is it also Muslims who just do not object to al-Qaida acting in the name of all Muslims.
The truly big problem that no elected official is addressing is that these "Radical Muslims" are no longer just overseas Muslims (Arab or Pakistani, etc.), they are also Americans. Products of the Mosques and schools mentioned above. We're no longer at war with just a foreign enemy, but fellow Americans recruited by the enemy. They're supplied, in turn, by a seemingly endless stream of homegrown foot soldiers, fed by a native Muslim population once believed quiescent and nonthreatening.
To be continued.
@ jgarbuz & all others that believe...
"This [anti-mosque sentiment] has nothing whatsoever to do with racism or bigotry! This has to do with insensitivity and intransigence of those pushing this mosque/cultural center upon the will of the majority who feel this goes too far. And if they do succeed in this brazen disregard for the feelings of the victims and the will of the majority, that will lead to the very bigotry all people of good will seek to attenuate and avoid. It will leave a bruise that will not be forgotten."
Just so all those out there that hold this belief understand, this statement is Political Correctness in the ultimate.
Since the majority of people that are against the building of this mosque tend to be right-wing, conservative, and strong "American exceptionalists" - just the sort that have always in the past dismissed Political Correctness. If a person shares the above sentiment, that person must admit that they are now espousing "sensitivity" above American law and constitutional rights.
Just so ya' know...
The Anti-Mosque Movement is Politically Correct Nonsense:
March 30th of this year Christian militia were accused of plotting to kill a Michigan law enforcement officer (ironically in the state where the largest Muslim population is living outside the middle east) and then attack other police at the funeral. Where's the public apologies from any Christian group for this action? Exactly, none…. There are those here that claim that there are Muslim militias out there yet we have all known for decades that there are Christian extremists out there that have some pretty scary ideas and are doing some scary stuff (Did you already forget Ruby Ridge?). Yet I have never heard any church of any sect denounce such actions…. So I ask to those who bring up these Muslim militias, why are you not just as angry and scared of these Christian militias that have actually made their anarchist intentions known to the public for a very long time now?
Of course all Muslims support Al Quaida and Osama Bin Laden, just like all Christians support the Army of God and James Kopp. Right?
Where are our Christian leaders?
You would think that this topic is one that the Archbishop Timothy Dolan would chime in. Your eminence remained strangely silent and would rather travel to Staten Island. This topic is more about religion and hysteria and less about politics. Please take a stand. We (New Yorkers) are not exactly debating the merit of a third term for Mayor Bloomberg.

First, I want to say that the Muslim religion is not the only religion to try to influence others that theirs is the way. From the crusades on to the supreme race of the Nazis, Christiany has reared its ugly face.
Also I feel that the present anti-Islam panic in this country has some economic roots. After all, dealing with the Muslims of Saudi Arabia was quite acceptable when we were negotiating oil imports.
Finally, the main ingredient of prejudice is ignorance. I wonder how many Jewish people reside in Mississippi and what their religious lives are like. I know that I went to college in Reading, PA and was told by someone from the coal district of PA that he thought that Jews had horns. Also, I have been approached on the streets of NYC and asked why I wasn't in temple on the "Lord's" day.
I highly recommend this article from the Chicago Tribune written by a Muslim reporter. Wake up, America.
Hard-liners won battle for Bridgeview mosque

Just one more thing every Religion has its,own code or court,Just ask any Orthodox Jew,or devout Christian,Hindu,Buddhist it goes on and on.What religion has not tried to influence Politics or Law, Divorce ,Choice, Polygamy,Blue laws,the list goes on and on.
The very headline "Is America Islamophobic?" plays into the same pattern as the people who think Islam as a whole is pro-terrorist. "America" is not a single entity that's Islamophobic any more than "Islam" is a single entity that's pro-terrorist, & I'm sorry to hear so many people on both sides making blanket statements about people on the other side. Brian, I appreciate your continually framiing your questions in terms of "individual Muslims" (or members of other groups) & challenging "broad brush" statements by guests & callers. I wonder what can be done to counter the tendency to generalize any negative characteristics or behavior by *some* members of a group--even if they claim it's in the name of that group--to *all* members of the group, especially in the current political climate.
This has nothing whatsoever to do with racism or bigotry! This has to do with insensitivity and intransigence of those pushing this mosque/cultural center upon the will of the majority who feel this goes too far. And if they do succeed in this brazen disregard for the feelings of the victims and the will of the majority, that will lead to the very bigotry all people of good will seek to attenuate and avoid. It will leave a bruise that will not be forgotten.
I Live in Bay ridge in a wonderfully large block size Apt complex.If you know the area you know to which I speak,in this complex are people of all religions,colors,preferences,the whole spectrum .If you want to see Americans live their lives with respect and Tolerance this Jew says come on down.The ignorance,injustice,and hatred that is spewing through the airways,the demonazation that we are seeing on the TV and the net is not representative of the "regulars" only a concerted few whose agenda we are all aware of.SPEAK UP NOW DON'T LET THEM WIN!IT HAPPENED BEFORE IN THE 30'S DO NOT LET IT HAPPEN AGAIN.
Have we forgotten what we did to the Japanese Americans living here, after Pearl Harbor? This is along the same lines. And where did it get us? It was an embarrassment to us as a nation. Just like it was wrong conflate all the Japanese people in the world with the ones that attacked Pearl Harbor, and intern all the Japanese Americans, it is wrong to do the same with regard to all Muslims.
I was thinking, how interesting it is that people come forth with outrage when their particular race is attacked and one common factor in all of it (and I always wait for it)....is that Black America is held up as the "go to" example of extreme racism and bigotry and persecution yet, when we are discussing specifically the plight of the African in America, there are not many Amens, except from same.....just thinking aloud.
Islam DOES represent itself as civil authority, though
I'm the first to respect the freedom of religion, for religions that consider the relation between individuals and their faith as being personal, and extra-legal.
A conflict seems to arise for Islam, which seems to either passively or actively present itself as superseding "civil" authority wherever that is the adherent's belief. Doesn't that present a constitutional conflict for the US, and violate the role of a government in guaranteeing freedom of religion for all?
Just because for a long time treating religion as a private matter worked fine, doesn't mean a religion that treats itself as the source of civil authority can be free to practice in a democracy, does it?
I have lived a block away from the Tribeca muslim storefront on West Broadway for a long time, and must tell you that the restaurants in the block felt its pressure, and had to fight hard to keep their liquor licenses on religious grounds. I have nothing against a religious edifice, especially a small one like this one, as long as its visitors mind their own business, and also avoid using sidewalks for praying and loitering around.
And of course, the Muslims wait for long periods on the sidewalk next to one restaurant
M. Junaid Levesque-Alam from Astoria, thanks for your clear comments. Unfortuantly the bigotry will continue and now anti Semitism has metastasized into anti-Islam, anti-immigrant, anti-other. The lies continue coming.

Roger's Rules
Accommodation or resistance? A reply to Ron Radosh
August 21, 2010 - by Roger Kimball
Let's be honest and call this what it is. Racism, Bigotry, and Intolerance in it's most American form. This is not new, this is a continuing practice in this country. The video that surfaced from the rally yesterday is despicable, but was it any different than what America saw when students tried to integrate Little Rock Arkansas?
This has very little to do with 9/11, and more to do with White Americans hatred/fear of anything and everything different. Combine that with frustration at the current economic conditions, and just a general misery in their own lives, and it's a recipe for disaster, which is what we have today. You could hear chanting on the video that 'Muhammad is a Pig'..in the same way that if you are at the Tea Party rallies you will find people calling Obama a N****r.
This is pure hatred, and Racism. And it's time NPR stopped covering it as if it is a topic to remain neutral on. The true face of the protestors has always been recognizable, and while i've tolerated NPR's 'balanced' coverage of this issue so far, I think it may be time for me to turn the dial back down to WBAI. I know they tend to go off to the opposite extreme on many occasions, but they will at least call a spade a spade and not dance around an issue under the pretense of neutrality.
Racism is Racism is Racism. And it is back in vogue in the USA. Perhaps we can finally put to death the term ridiculous term post-racial USA. I for one, at least am glad the thin veil has been removed.
Brian should not allow callers to conflate all Muslims together. There is a world of difference between Wahabis and Sufis. I am very liberal, but if this were a Wahabi center, I would be against it too, regardless of the constitution. The U.S. should embrace Sufis as much as we can, because they are the closest thing that we have to an ally in the Muslim world.
(p.s. Klazun: If having one's picture taken with a Wahabi Saudi made one a Wahabi, then Bush Sr. would be a Wahabi imam.)
Andy McCarthy wrote:
I have long argued that:
(1) Islam is not a moderate doctrine;
(2) Islamists who practice terror and are otherwise aggressive toward non-Muslims (and toward Muslims who disagree with them) are not twisting or perverting Islam;
(3) this does not mean that the Islamist interpretation of Islam is the only possible viable interpretation; but
(4) a concrete theology of "moderate Islam" does not exist (even though there are plenty of moderate Muslims) and therefore it will have to be created; and
(5) because it will have to be non-literal and reformist, it will have a tough time competing with Islamist ideology which, however noxious it may be, has the advantage of being firmly rooted in Islamic scripture. Nevertheless,
(6) Islamist ideology is anti-constitutional and anti-freedom in many of its core particulars, so that
(7) if, instead of letting them pretend to be "moderates," we force Islamists to defend their beliefs, we will marginalize them — at least in our society, which
(8) will empower true moderate Muslim reformers and — maybe — give them the space they need to solidify a coherent, moderate Islam that embraces the West, and in particular the separation of secular public life from privately held religious beliefs.
There is more to say about all this, not least to observe that we may be arriving at a juncture at which most people of good will agree that Islam as-is is problematic, that promoting real moderate Islam (meaning reformist Islam) is vital, and that our real difference of opinion is how to do it: Do we expose and confront the Islamists, or do we embrace them — as long as they seem not to be terrorists themselves — and hope that we can co-opt them before they co-opt us?
Jgarbuz, thank you. Well said. As I said earlier one of Fascism's technique is to create the great lie and repeat it over and over again.
I think that the couple that are behind Park 51 are remarkable in so many ways. That said I do think this is not a case of pure predjudice. If indeed we look to Europe we see all kinds of problems with the Muslim population, the murder of that filmmaker in holland and the insident with the cartoonist. also we have found here that so many who become terrorists are educated middle class people that get their schooling in the west. This is a real problem, its not something that is being invented by americans. I know that the couple who are behind this project are remarkable and have built a bridge with the Jewish Community. I would love for them to be leaders in this endevor, but I regret that I feel they wouldn't find many followers. What happens in Israel isn't just a fault of Israel, let's see a little self-reflection from Muslims on this subject.
Bobby Ghosh uttered 2 absolute errors. FACTUAL ERRORS:
1. There are indeed militia training camps run by muslims in most states. it's not illegal, as long as they don't admit that it's intended as insurrection. And what idiot would?
2. There's no such thing as Saudi money??!! Who does he think has been financing the hundreds of mosques being built in the US since the 1970s!!! When survaillence of jihadist and islamists first picked up and translated the words "money weapon", federal agents didn't know what that was. They later learned it was Saudi money, or "oil money".
19 Muslims killed ~3000 Americans -- all Muslims are terrorists.
Hundreds/thousands of young boys molested by Christian priests -- all Christians are pedophiles.
Stop the mosque AND move St Patrick's out of NYC. We don't need terrorists or pedophiles.
Thank you for your discussion of the potential for Islamophobia in our society. I am deeply troubled, though, that the discussion about the development at Park51 is isolated in our discussion from parallel disturbing phenomena: the lack of public concern about the Pakistani flood victims, the lack of concern about how so significant a part of our population can be ignorant or the President's religion, and so susceptible to the Big Lie. Aren't these all related issues... what's happening to facts and accuracy in our "information and knowledge society"
Dose anybody know how embedded American Oil companies are in Saudi Arabia and it's royal family?
And has been since the 1930's.
I'm sure this has been raised before, but was there objection to allowing Christian churches near the site of the Oklahoma City bombing? Timothy McVeigh did not represent Christianity, and a few extremists don't represent Islam.
The Catholic church operates its own interior "court" system which serves to punish its church hierarchy. Where is the outrage over a system that has categorically refused to turn its lawbreaking, pederastic clerics over to the proper authorities and at the same time has acted without the proper haste to address, or even admit, the problem?
Sharia court in the US will never be permitted to override the laws of the jurisdiction, whether Federal, state or local.
The difference between Islam and Christianity, is that Christians have recognized and profusely apologized and repented for their crimes of the past. But Islam never has and never will, as it considers itself perfect in every way, and everyone else to be in error and in opposition to the will of Allah. As for my people, the Jews, the major black mark against us is that too many of us in the past backed leftist dystopian, atheistic ideas, like communism, which also led to the murder of millions. But communism and other far leftist ideals were a definite and distinct deviation from the ethos and ideals of Judaism. And those leftist Jews who support these wrongheaded ideals will always arrive at a dead end. As did those who supported communism in the USSR.
I am a 27-year-old American Muslim and a citizen. Every day I hear the arguments being put forth against the Muslim center, and they are so transparently hateful and duplicitous that it seems almost pointless to critique them because people swept up in a mob mentality have zero interest in facts.
For instance, the opposition cloaks their argument in the garb of "sensitivity" for 9/11 families - but there is no consensus among these families. In fact, Muslim prayer services have been held at the Pentagon since 2002, and none of the Pentagon families have complained.
Also, American extremists are railing against mosques across the country - Connecticut, California, Tennessee, Staten Island. So it is sheer dishonesty to pretend that opposition to Park 51 is some sort of exception based on the "sensitivities" of any families when it is really a part of a national hate wave.
I think what's most disheartening - and disturbing - for me is the power and anger of conservative extremism. This controversy was manufactured, as we've learned now from Salon.com and Washington Post reports, by one or two bloggers who are known to hate Muslims and blacks. Pamela Geller, who began fanning the hysteria before being amplified by Fox News and friends, posits that the president is the son of Malcolm X and sympathizes with Serbian ultra-nationalists and South African defenders of apartheid.
So that is the intellectual and moral level of the people who now control the agenda of conservatives. In other words, the people judging Muslims for their level of "moderation" are rabid extremists. It's like putting the arsonist in charge of the fire station.
Finally, I just want to say that I wince a little every time I hear someone say that Muslims don't speak out enough against terrorism. Self-absorption appears to be an incurable disease, but let me point out that Al-Qaeda has killed far, far more Muslims than non-Muslims, and that Al-Qaeda is a movement of no more than a few thousand people in a religion of 1.5 billion people.
Ironically, what helps Al-Qaeda more than anything is the hatefulness of a growing number of Americans who seem intent on proving bin Laden right when he says that America is against Islam.

on a segment from the daily show last week, john oliver asks why we can open a school next to a catholic church http://www.thedailyshow.com/watch/mon-august-16-2010/mosque-erade
The comment made by the guest on the previous show has got to be kidding.
Historically, Christianity has won over every existing religion in almost every age.
What religion ended up with the Italian Peninsula?
What religion ended up with the Iberian Peninsula?
What religion ended up with Eastern Europe or Western Europe and the British Isles?
It won with treachery and torture.
Let's be impartial with our characterisations of religion.
It seems tome all religions except some of the Eastern religions have been propagated by warfare.
I lived in Bloomington Indiana for over 12 years from the late 60's through 1980. I knew a number Muslims from the university and the community. The greatest threat there is from the intolerant fundamentalist Christians who hated everyone outside their own splinter sects. The "book" the woman talked about sounds as honest and truthful as the Protocols of the Elders of Zion...that is an outright lie written for propaganda purposes.
The U.S. Constitution reigns supreme.
There LESS THAN NO CHANCE FOR ANY SHARIA LAW IN THE U.S.
To say otherwise is irrational fear-mongering.
It is incumbent upon those intolerant of Islam to prove otherwise (of course they cannot).
We live in the United States of America, people, where do you think you live? Get with it.
Why do all these nonNYers care so much about our city, especially since they hate NYers so much and think we're left-wing, communist, Jewish, homosexual pornographers? I don't tell Mitch McConnell what to do in Kentucky; he shouldn't tell us what to do in NYC.
If only people were so passionate about more important issues. I am concerned about any religious extremest with intent to do harm to other people; however, this Islamic Cultural Center seems far from that. How much does one have to prove their intent to do something beneficial for society before they are accepted? How long before America truly understands the concept of equality for all?

Writing this requires a severe lack of irony.
If nothing else, don't you have any sense of the sanctity of individual liberty in this country, and property rights?
One day you (or your ethnic group) will find yourself on the receiving end, and you'll wish you had stood up for equality, tolerance, and religious freedom.
In response to Patty's call, did she stand up and complain about Operation Rescue violently harassing women going into women's health clinics? Did she protest the shootings of doctors by Christians? Did she protest Operation Rescue's plan to buy the building of a women's health clinic after one of their fellow Christians assassinated the clinic's doctor?
Wow, for a moment I thought my radio was tuned to WNYM or some other conservative drivel. I'm ashamed of the blatant bigotry being expressed here.
Jewish Beth Din courts also operate in London. By Jews, for Jews. Fine. What's the problem.
The double standard is the marker of racism. The bigots hold Muslims and Arabs to one standard that they reject for themselves.
Again, a mosque was BOMBED in Florida -- in May! That's where this is headed. And Gingrich, Palin, Geller are COUNTING on this.
If only people were so passionate about more important issues. I am concerned about any religious extremest with intent to do harm to other people; however, this Islamic Cultural Center seems far from that. How much does one have to prove their intent to do something beneficial for society before they are accepted? How long before America truly understands the concept of equality for all?
Former US Attorney Andy McCarthy explains the reason we must consider mainstream Islam dangerous, and why doing so will help the true peaceful minority of Muslims.
"Islamophobia" Or Empowering Pro-Western Muslims?
August 21, 2010 12:00 PM
By Andy McCarthy
on a segment from the daily show last week, john oliver asks why we can open a school next to a catholic church http://www.thedailyshow.com/watch/mon-august-16-2010/mosque-erade
Can you get this crank off the air? Good heavens Brian!
I often wonder if the people that show the most hatred of Islam, including politicians, know any Muslims. It would be impossible to maintain a relationship with someone if you hold such contempt for their religion so their circle of friends has to be 100% christian. Maybe they would be better off if they spoke to someone and found out what their faith was about instead of going on sound bites.
ROFLAMO @ this dumba$$ caller. Such a racist, conspiracy theorist, nut-job. I'll bet she has tin foil on her head right now!
I don't bellieve this would have been an issue under the Bush administration. For one, George Bush would have come out squarely for the cultural center. For two, this frustrating out-of-towners' paranoid xenophobia didn't seem to need to express itself so forthrightly while that perceived Good Old Boy regime ran the show.
By no means should anyone use Christianity as an example...that religion also was twisted and used for evil as well.
Brian difference is we don't blow ourselves up and wish death on all others.
What about the recent Somali situaton in the US.

That's an extremely bigoted position to take, it's a total generalization of millions and millions of people.
If the actions of a few dictate the feelings of all, there are all sorts of horrible things we could attribute to every single tribal, ethnic, and religious group in america and around the world, including your own.
Could we try to leverage this controversy into a way of getting the Turkish government to allow the Eastern Orthodox Christians their school in Istanbul or the Bahais their cultural buildings in Tehran?
Bobby: Is it not true, and has TIME not reported, that attacks are planned INSIDE these places? Is that true or not????????????????????/
It is time for the victims of the Palinist, Gellerist, Gingrichist hate-speech to sue. To charge Gingrich, Palin, Geller and others with actionable hate-speech, with inciting others to riot.
The American Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee has documented -- exhaustively -- attacks upon Muslims and Arabs.
If the US government won't defend Arabs and Muslims, then victims must take it to the courts and sue Gingrich and others for libel, slander, hate-speech, incitement to riot.
The argument is that Muslims tear down a conquered country's institutions and build their own. Well isn't that what Christian invading armies have done over the course of history? Isn't that what we all cheered over when the statues and images of Saddam Hussein came down? And The US military built the Green Zone?
And while it would be abhorrent for a Nazi group to put up a shrine next to Auschwitz exalting their ideology, the German people have certainly made sure that the memory of that atrocity will be remembered. So why can't Muslims contribute to the rebuilding of an area that a few extremists destroyed?
john from office, thanks for your history of Islamic Cordoba.
Remember, there where Muslims victims on that horrible day-9 11
Why is it called "islamophobia"? The issue does not seem to be fear of Muslims, but virulent hatred. Same applies to "homophobia," etc.
But maybe there's something to it. I remember George Hanson in "Easy Rider":
"Oh, yeah, they're gonna talk to you, and talk to you, and talk to you about individual freedom. But they see a free individual, it's gonna scare 'em."
Mayor Bloomberg and President Obama are defending our Constitution.
I think some of the raging generalizations of some of the comments in this trail.. basically confirms that there is bigotry out there!
jgarbuz - Christianity is hardly a religion of peace.. take the Crusades as a good example
Becuase it was the site of a Islamic victory.
I lived in London through several waves of IRA bombings. There was some unpleasant anti-irish stuff going on in the culture, but no-one thought to protest the catholic church....
@ Jgarbuz: Latin American is full of Catholic churches build on the top of indigenous tembles. They're everywhere. Just a bit of context.
Finally, it seems like opponents are not really thinking about how the USA will secure-itself from terrorism: by doing good police and intelligence work, and by winning over moderates.
how does commercial space get to be called hallowed ground?
Americans cannot be "Islamaphobic" because we are afraid this can happen again. New Yorkers in particular were directly affected. It is just plain insensitive to build the center in that locale.
Bravo, Eric K - right on! If Americans ever
grow up, the world will be a better place. If not, we're doomed, with ignorance and gullibility winning out over intelligence. I'm not too optimistic on this issue, but keep hoping.
Brian, your show is my absolute favorite; I almost never miss it. That said, I am DEVASTATED how much air time you've been giving to this "debate," as if it were a valid issue. And, just now, prompting your guest to distinguish between protesters who "simply" say "It's just too close to Ground Zero" and protestors' "Islamophobia" -- they're the same thing! I really cannot believe more media outlets aren't making this point.
I'm just disgusted with this issue in general and particularly the media coverage of it. Call it out for what it is: good old fashioned American BIGOTRY.
Brian, the Time Square Bomber was Americanized, educated here and full of hate for America. What would you think.??
The sweeping, blanket association of Muslims with the 9/11 attacks is _racism_. It's that simple.
Mr. Lehrer _would_ note this -- rightly -- if anybody were making sweeping comments about Jews and the occupation of the Palestinian territories. Likewise, any sweeping condemnation of blacks and Africa is _racist_.
This is widely recognized -- EXCEPT when the racist assertions are about Islam, Muslims or Arabs.
Mr. Lehrer is coddling anti-Arab, anti-Muslim racists.
Those signs that said "sharia" in bloody red letters are a definite statement of Islamophobia. What the people holding the signs don't know is that Park51 is a center for Sufis, who don't observe sharia very closely. So these people are trying to dehumanize Muslims by saying they are all the same.
The nazi/japanese argument only holds water if you are blaming all muslims for 9/11.
Same with the sensitivity case: it's only insensitive if you are blaming all muslims for what Al Quida did.
Why are we blaming an entire religion for what Al Q did on 9/11???
john from office
"Why the name Cordoba??"
I always feared ALL hispanic people are al qaeda sleeper cells
Can we please reconsider the use of the word "Hallowed" when refering to this location. It implies a religous significance withoust specifying which religion.

I know the history of Islam. It begins with the murder, robbery and ethnic cleansing of the Jews out of Medina, Khaybar and the Hijaz where they had lived for 500 years after fleeing Roman persecution in Judea. It continues with a vast invasion of the entire Middle East - of Christianized Syria and Mesopotamia and North Africa and Zoroastrian Persia, Hindu India, and even Christian Europe. It marks its victories by placing mosques on the Jewish Temple Mount, the Christian Haggia Sophia, and thousands of destroyed Hindu Temple sites. And now it seeks to desecrate hallowed ground where the WTC was destroyed by Muslim terrorists.
Unbelievable. And Gingrich is allegedly a historian? And he's never heard of the Crusades, the 30 years war, the hundred years war, imperialists forcing Christianity down the throats of Native Americans, Africans, and Indians from the subcontinent? The ignorance on display here is mind boggling. And the hypocrisy.
In honor of all the bigots protesting the Cordoba House, why not call it the Chrysler Cordoba house and have Ricardo Montalban be the spokesman? That enough to satisfy you?
Are we to forget the party in the street after 9/11 in most of the Islamic world. We will never forget.
What I don't understand is why no one is complaining the OTB and Strip Club that is even closer to ground zero. Now it is really sacred?!
And the protesters: Go BACK to jersey, go back to Pennsylvania. go back VA!! This is NYC, not middle America. Fix your own home.
americans don't like freedom
The pro section was the usual suspects, anti anything american crowd.
I think that 1) If the media would stop leading the charge that creates "Islamaphobia", Americans of all races will see with a clear head and proceed in logical discussion of why it is certainly a bad idea to erect the center in that location.
Brian, thanks for taking this on in today's show!
Glenn Greenwald has an excellent column up today covering several aspects of this controversy, most notably the following, which seems quite missing in our discourse (perhaps this is the point where both sides ought to come to an understanding?):
"Obviously, not all opponents of Park51 are as overtly hateful as those in that video -- and not all opponents are themselves bigots -- but the position they've adopted is inherently bigoted, as it seeks to impose guilt and blame on a large demographic group for the aberrational acts of a small number of individual members."
I think xenophobia is on the rise in America, not just a fear of Islam. Whether it's the anti-immigration movement in the Southwest or the opposition to Islamic centers and mosques in Florida and California, there's a growing fear of the other. You hear it in the chants of "We want our country back," at rallies in New York and elsewhere. We want our country back from whom? Unfortunately, Park51 is just the latest casualty in our country's inability to have a mature discussion about race, religion, freedom, and change.
Mr. Lehrer:
A mosque in Florida was BOMBED. That's not "scrutiny". That's murderous attack. Terrorism directed at Muslims and Arabs here in the United States by the the EXACT people who assert that all terrorism is committed by Muslims.
And, Mr. Lehrer, it's time for you to be honest about what is happening. It's not "scrutiny." It's anti-Muslim, racist terrorism.
Why the name Cordoba??
It was captured in 711[3] by a Muslim army: in 716 it became a provincial capital, depending from the Caliphate of Damascus; in Arabic it was known as قرطبة (Qurṭuba). In May 766, it was elected as capital of the independent Muslim emirate of al-Andalus, later a Caliphate itself. During the caliphate apogee (1000 AD), Córdoba had a population of roughly 400,000 inhabitants,[4] though estimates range between 250,000 and 500,000. In the 10th-11th centuries Córdoba was one of the most advanced cities in the world, as well as a great cultural, political, financial and economic centre. The Great Mosque of Córdoba dates back to this time; under caliph Al-Hakam II Córdoba received what was then the largest library in the world, housing from 400,000 to 1,000,000 volumes.
After the fall of the caliphate (1031), Córdoba became the capital of a Republican independent taifa. This short-lived state was conquered by Al-Mu'tamid ibn Abbad, lord of Seville, in 1070
The people against Park51 and Islam in general are the ones that sound like the terrorists.
Replace "moslem" with "Jew", replace "mosque" with "synagogue", and you've got Germany 1934.
Brian please please please do not undermine this controversy as a political issue, exploited by strategists to make candidates look weak or shaky.
This is depressing.
In greater context it is, yes, another episode of American intolerance and history tells us we will one day move on from it a better, more welcoming country as we have time and again. And yes, it is also valid to think this is merely filling a vacuum in the media because of the summer. But it is still depressing.
How many more episodes is it going to take for America to stop being this way? What will be the generation that finally sheds any and all kneeejerk reactions of fear and hate? Why can't it be our time that finally leaves that way of thinking behind?
That Pew poll showing so many Americans in a fog about the personal characteristics of the President really was the final straw. How can so many people in this country just not get a proper sense of reality? How much of this is about humble, just-getting-by American Joes not understanding the world around them and how much of it is deliberate willful ignornance in order to cling to a comfortable anxiety about everything they don't understand?
Are we just a functionally immature nation? We're over 230 years old. When are we going to grow up?
I find it interesting that Brian frames the show as "are Americans Islamophopic" when , Islam, in the form of 19 hijackers attacked America and much of the Islamic world celebrated. Which is why the avaerage American does not care that Pakistan is drowning. They celebrated in the streets, we will not forget that..
I was at the Rally, as a neutral party, They have every right to build the Center, they should move it out of respect. It is too close and it offends.
They are not BIGOTS, they are outraged Americans.
Good morning Bigots! I see you're all out in force today as usual. Deal with this: the Cordoba House has been in the works since December. Its going to get build. And its going to be fine. They may even have some nice events there that you may even attend. But the bottom line is that 1 year from now, when its not an election partisan circus, you won't hear a peep about this project just like you didn't hear a thing about it in January, February, March, April, May, and June. Welcome back to reality!
Klazun Geronomilon from nyc, my sense is the you probably don't know much about Islam, it's history it's culture and you could not care less.
John Batchelor is taking a page out of Hitler's "Mein Kampf." In it Hitler said if you tell a large lie and repeat it over and over again, the public will believe you. Congratulations to those Islamophobes and bigots (Fox News) for learning that lesson.
Is America "islamophobic?" No, Muslims are Judeophobic and democracy-phobic. This aggressive, arrogant and insensitive refusal of the backers of the mosque/cultural center to accommodate the sensitivities of many of those who lost their loved ones in 9/11, and wishes of the majority that the mosque be moved elsewhere has opened the eyes of many. Islam has a long history of triumphantly placing mosques on temple sites of other religions is well known. The American people are generous and forgiving, but are finally waking up to the resolute aggressiveness of the adherents of Islam who brook no compromise.
At least you are now calling it park 51. But how do we get Fox news to be neutral, perhaps we could pass a new law defining what News and Journalism is and how its supposed to be searching for the truth and not just a cheerleader for the Neo Cons, Oh but that would require Congress to do something. I think we are all screwed by the bias and spinning of facts, all the way from advertising soda to promoting politicians and the art of dividing people along religious lines. The father of advertising / Propaganda was the NAZI Joseph Goebels ( sp ? )c
the changing economy & 911 trauma set the stage for demagogues to take the stage. americans are frightened
The element of absolute insistence that this place must be at this address is extreme. That has nothing to do with religion, that has to do with shoving your agenda down someone's throat. Now that pictures of the Imam have emerged with Wahabi Saudi's in a very comfy situation, as reported by the John Batchelor Show, this peaceful little ping pong and swimming pool center suddenly seems to attain the ever so slight whiff of suspicion, as does its leader. There is a concept in Islam of building a "victory mosk" near an attack site. No one will report this, because journalists today are anti-truth, anti-digging for facts, and pro-their own agenda.

Denning, General
- Next Article
Depnen - Previous Article
Military officer with the United States Army Air Corps on 20th-century Earth. Denning, a veteran of two world wars, was deeply concerned for his nation's security, and about the potential risk that extraterrestrials might pose.
General Denning investigated the crash of an extraterrestrial spacecraft near Roswell, New Mexico, on Earth in 1947. Denning's investigation was conducted under the direct orders of American President Harry S Truman. He found himself face-to-face with three Ferengi who had inadvertently travelled back in time from the 24th century, fielding their proposition to engage in trade. The apparent leader of those extraterrestrials, Quark, offered to sell the general's nation-state advanced technology for millions of bars of gold, but he also warned that he would be willing to do business with the Russians if the Americans wouldn't play ball. Denning was particularly concerned about their weapons technology. After being mistreated by the military investigators, the Ferengi eventually got away in their ship, and Denning was willing to let the existing cover story lay that the crashed "flying saucer" was just a weather balloon.
General Denning had a brother-in-law who was a car salesman whom he didn't trust; Quark reminded him of that relative. Even though he was beholden to President Truman, Denning had a low opinion of his commander-in-chief, calling him a "little piano-playing Democrat" — even though he acknowledged that that Democrat wasn't as dumb as he looked.

Open the valve all of the way and then BACK IT OFF 1/4 to 1/2 turn. The slight closure will make no difference to the flow but will make a huge difference to the wear pattern that is set up. Now many years later when you turn the valve, the leak will not be at the full open position and chances are very good that it will either not leak or by opening it full, the leak will stop. It's that easy.
It doesn't matter what you do as a seller, you will get screwed over.
9 things you learn when you sell your home
By Brett Martin of Popular Mechanics
We put our house on the market recently. This was our first home, which we've lived in for more than a decade, so we expected to invest a lot of time cleaning, organizing and making some minor repairs that we'd been putting off. Here's what we didn't see coming.
White and bold wall colors are no-nos
We worked with a stager — a person who specializes in making homes more sellable. Walking through our house with her was humbling and a bit exasperating. In the past four years, I've painted every single room in the house and applied a decorative finish in the kitchen. I'd repaired any problems with the walls and filled all nicks, cracks and holes to make the walls look smooth. I used paints that were easy to clean to keep the walls looking fresh.
The problem? The colors. The white in the foyer and family room (too bland), the green in the dining room and the ocean blue in the kitchen (too bold), the blue-gray in the basement (too dark) and one bright red wall in our older son's bedroom (too bright) were all the wrong choices to entice buyers. We ended up having to paint nearly every room in the house a neutral color.

9 things you learn when you sell your home
What 'cut the clutter' really means
We knew the real-estate mantra that having the house tidy and organized, with only the minimum amount of furniture in each room, makes the space appear larger and more enticing. So we knew we'd have to clear out plenty of clutter. We didn't expect to have to take out almost everything.
Three bookshelves in my office, one apiece in three bedrooms and one in the basement all had to go. That meant packing up and carrying about 600 books to the garage. We also had to remove sofas, chairs, dressers, cabinets, lamps, televisions, a desk, kitchenware and one-third of the clothes in our closets. Our garage is now filled to the limit with furniture and full boxes. Be prepared to park your car outside.

It's not your home anymore
We've lived in this home for more than a decade, so the walls are covered in plenty of family pictures. Our stager wasn't impressed. She told us that almost every picture had to go. To show the house, the walls had to be almost bare, with the exception of a strategically placed mirror or two and a couple of small scenic pictures in nice frames. This removes personality, allowing potential buyers to see the house as theirs, not yours.

The walls are in worse shape than you think
Once you start removing the clutter, you'll find all kind of unpleasant surprises. Once we removed those dressers, we found myriad nail holes, gouges and cracks that were easily visible in the naked walls. They required filling the holes and fixing the damaged spots, then sanding the walls smooth and then vacuuming up all the dust. It proved to be a time-consuming project that we hadn't planned to undertake. On the plus side, the new homeowners are going to have perfect walls.

Those large items might not come back out so easily
You may tell yourself that anything you got in a room in one piece will come back out in one piece. But as anyone who has ever moved can attest, getting a large item, mainly a sofa, through tight doorways can be like trying to solve a puzzle that weighs several hundred pounds.
Our absurdly heavy sofa with a hideaway bed refused to come out of a room. No matter how we twisted, flipped or contorted the couch, it jammed against the wall opposite the doorway before we could get it out. I ended up taking it apart and removing the bed to get it through the door.

Some cleaning projects will be frustratingly stubborn
A decade's worth of hands running up and down our handrails had caused the brown-stained wood to turn dark and ugly. The wood grains were nearly black. We had cleaned the railings periodically with a wood cleaner, but it didn't remove or prevent what looked like black stains running the length of the rails. Finally, we used a liquid dishwasher detergent mixed with water to cut through the grease. Then we used a lemon-based furniture cleaner and a lot of vigorous scrubbing to get the wood clean. There are going to be projects that won't come clean with just a sponge, soap and water, especially if you've lived in a home for many years.

Fix those nagging problems — but don't expect them to be easy
The pop-up sink stopper in the bathroom sink hadn't worked in awhile. It was a problem we could live with — the water still drained just fine — but I wanted to fix it before listing the house; even small, neglected problems could put off buyers.
What should have been a simple fix turned into a major project. The replacement stopper wouldn't work either. Since one of the faucet handles was cracked anyway, we decided to replace the whole faucet and drain assembly. After three trips to the home center — one for the stopper, one for the new faucet and then one to replace the shutoff valves that decided to start leaking after being turned off for the first time in years — and spending plenty of time working in the tight quarters behind the pedestal sink, the faucet and drain worked great. But it shot an entire afternoon.

9 things you learn when you sell your home
Everything will take longer than you think
We made the decision to sell our home in early April. My kids and my wife, who's a teacher, were on spring break, and I took the better part of the week off to get the house in order. With all four of us working, we expected to have the house ready for listing by the end of the week. And by working 12-plus hours a day, we almost made our goal.
We ate up four days filling nail holes, sanding and giving each room two coats of paint, which put us behind schedule. We also ran into the common problem most people face when they prepare to move: We had a lot more stuff than we thought, and it took a long time to pack it up. It also made us wonder why we didn't have a garage sale a long, long time ago.

The house won't stay clean
With the house freshly painted, thoroughly cleaned and filled with just a minimal amount of furniture in the rooms, our mission of making the home look large and inviting was accomplished. It actually looks better now than when we bought it. But maintaining that clean and organized look is a challenge that we have to answer every day because of constant showings.
Despite a new family-wide policy of not wearing shoes indoors and not touching the walls, the house won't stay clean. The floor in the foyer seems to magically attract mud, the carpet constantly needs vacuuming, schoolbooks and backpacks appear throughout the house and the walls get dinged and need to be touched up. Some of this is unavoidable: You can't live in a house without kicking up a little dirt. It's what we'll be dealing with until the house sells.

President Obama's lack of support for Israel is disgusting! I feel like Israel will act and soon. I feel this way.. because Israel has been thrown under the bus on Iran and the Syrian chemical weapons by the U.S. Netanyahu and our allies keep hearing not until after the elections...and you know what? Netanyahu just might make sure he does it before the election. The only problem for non Obama fans would be it could rally the country around him if he backs them up. If he does what it appears he will do...which is not back Israel and maybe cut military support and funding then...Romney wins in a Reagan like landslide. Israel doesn't want war more than anyone else...they are good people. They do understand threats and when push comes to shove they will not be dictated to by the U.S. When Israel feels they need to act they will...with or without U.S. support. Natanyahu is a leader who knows America and Israeli politics better than some politicians in America. He knows what to do and how to do it. If U.S. officials keep pushing him...then he will act and do so to stop Iran..and prove to the U.S. that they decide their future not U.S. policy. I think the more we push Netanyahu..the more he gets close to saying the hell with it and launching a massive strike on Iran and then the middle east will be in war. You then have a situation where President Obama has said he will not back them up. So...if that plays out then the economy gets far worse,gas prices sky rocket,we look weak for not supporting Israel and finally Romney celebrates big in November. Let's face it...Netanyahu wants to work with Romney in 2013 not Obama. This is becoming very interesting as we are now in September.
MM...didn't Krauthammer say he thought that Israel would strike during the conventions here in the U.S.? If so they have about a 4 day window to do so.
Anonymous Coward 881258
Yes but (Charles) is a political analyst not so much militarily, the window does not look ripe for another week. I am getting bad feedback that Israel is in checkmate and cannot strike, I hope they are wrong.
Checkmate in the sense that they would have to take on Hez, Hamas, Iran, et al, all by themselves?
Or give up all idea to do so knowing Israel needs US support.

History: Altitude, formerly Mile High Club, was formed as a World of Warcraft guild in September, 2008. The goal was to game with players locally to Colorado while having the chance to meetup locally for things away from the computer, or sometimes at the computer just somewhere else.
Leadership has changed hands many times throughout the guild, and eventually the meetup groups history but the attitude always remains the same. There is always a helping hand, or an eager participant.
Meetups: We do meetups in Colorado: Denver, Colorado Springs, Fort Collins...and even Glenwood Springs. We meetup up for bowling, karaoke, food, etc. The conversations generally turn out to be nerdy in nature, but they can range over a variety of topics.
If you don't see an event you would like to attend, feel free to make recommendations or throw up a suggestion for a new event. You'd be surprised how many people will tag along once the details get laid down.
If you are interested in Dungeons and dragons, Console games, Magic the Gathering, Starcraft 2, League of Legends, Heroes of Newerth, or just Computer games of all sorts. This is the place for you!
World of Warcraft: Our server is Hyjal, our faction is Horde.
Altitude is a successful adult raiding guild looking for a few more to round out their Dragon Soul Heroic groups (and others on the side of course).
Altitude is recruiting: We are awesome!
Our local members enjoy getting together for fun times and discussion of all things WoW. If you are from Colorado, and this sounds like something you want to get involved in, then please feel free to check out the Forums!

Re: your April 28 editorial, "Rushing drivers mostly to blame for road injuries":
Although I agree with your editorial regarding speed and increased road injuries, I would like to take this opportunity to point out one other factor I believe adds to increased accidents and serious injuries. That is quite simply distractions, namely from mobile phones.
If speeding drivers insist on participating in this dangerous undertaking, then at the very least they should stay focused and refrain from all distractions. When I see drivers driving erratically, I immediately suspect that they may be drunk, but inevitably I find they are simply preoccupied, talking on their phones.
Driving well over the speed limits is dangerous enough, not only to themselves but everyone on the road. Add in being distracted, and that increases their chances of being in a serious accident exponentially.

Overview of the Prechter Fund
The Heinz C. Prechter Bipolar Research Fund is helping to lay the new foundation of medical research. The fund brings together national collaborators, thereby creating larger sample sizes to be made available to scientists around the world. It is increasingly apparent that a detailed longitudinal course of study is necessary to understand the underpinnings of bipolar disorder. Understanding how the interactions between individual and his/her environment result in the manifestation of bipolar disorder is pivotal to the development of novel treatment strategies.
Predicting Outcomes and Preventing Disease
Researchers who study bipolar disorder have discovered an important connection between genes, stresses and environmental experiences. Understanding this connection is believed to be a key to conquering this illness.
Requirements for conquering bipolar illness include:
- Understanding the interactions between genes and life stresses in causing bipolar disorder
- Integrating genetics, stress, psychological factors and clinical studies to enable clinicians to make an accurate diagnosis, choose the best treatments, and prevent recurrences of the disease
- Diagnosing and treating individuals earlier in life, monitoring their progress over years to understand the different courses of the illness, and linking genetic vulnerabilities with clinical interventions
Unique characteristics of the Prechter Bipolar Genes Project include:
- Emphasis on those with early onset, especially adolescents
- Ongoing relationships and frequent evaluations of participants at regular intervals to establish longitudinal patters
- The first "translational" ("bench-to-bedside") bipolar project to integrate genetic, longitudinal biomedical and clinical outcome measures
- Incorporating established partnerships with Johns Hopkins, Penn State, Stanford and Weill Cornell Universities
- Confidential availability of coded DNA samples and clinical information to scientists worldwide to accelerate knowledge breakthroughs
To learn more about participating or to obtain more information about the projects, please call 1-877-UM-GENES
"If you look at the research in regard to bipolar disorder, it is 20 years or more behind compared to where we are with cancer and all the other illnesses. They are just as valid to investigate and research, but I do believe that we have forgotten about mental illnesses."
Waltraud E. Prechter
Founder, Prechter Bipolar Research Fund

Singapore, October 22, 2012. Asia is one of the key markets with the highest potential for renewable energies and is quickly moving towards energy transition. Today the highly anticipated "Singapore International Energy Week" is starting with the PV Asia Pacific Expo. Amongst the key players of the energy week is the juwi group. The company is one of the leading project developers for renewable energies with a presence in 15 countries. Since the beginning of this year, the company has established its regional headquarters in Singapore. Now, juwi has entered the Japanese and Taiwanese markets with its own projects.
Currently, 65 juwi employees are working in Asia-Pacific with Singapore as the hub for all
juwi activities. At the moment, juwi's activities in six markets are managed from Singapore
with more markets to be added.
"Singapore is well positioned as the leading project development and financing hub for the Asia-Pacific region which is regarded as the next growth frontier in renewable energy.
Companies can also leverage Singapore's strengths in market access, technology and
ability to attract international talent. We are confident that juwi's new regional headquarters
in Singapore will help increase the vibrancy of our clean technology industry," said Mr. Goh Chee Kiong, Director of Cleantech at the Singapore Economic Development Board.
Amiram Roth-Deblon, juwi Regional Director Asia-Pacific, adds: "Singapore holds a
unique position as the vibrant economic centre of Asia-Pacific. We are very well supported
here and could thus successfully start our business."
Amiram Roth-Deblon says: "We are very happy to have found a strategic partner in Japan
with great cooperation leading to a successful market entry in Japan. We are convinced
that one hundred per cent electricity supply with renewable energy is not only possible, but
worthwhile. It is the only secure, affordable and sustainable alternative to nuclear power
stations and coal power stations."
In Taiwan, juwi is currently installing photovoltaic systems on eight rooftops. The projects
are being constructed in the Province of Jyn Lin. Since the beginning of October, juwi
experts and its local Taiwanese partner started renovating the roof for the installation of
the photovoltaic system. By the beginning of December the solar plant is expected to be
connected to the grid.
So far juwi has realized the greatest volume of Asian projects in India. Here the company
started its activities with solar energy in October 2010. Up until now five solar free-field
plants have been connected to the grid. In total these projects have a capacity of 22
megawatt. The projects are located in the Northern part of India. Moreover, three more
solar free-field plants with a total capacity of approximately 50 megawatt are currently
being built by juwi in India. These projects will be connected to the grid in January 2013 at
the latest. They are situated in in the federal state of Rajasthan in Northern India. Amiram
Roth-Deblon says: "India has a rising energy demand. Renewable energies are a good
means to answer this demand without polluting the environment."
juwi was founded in 1996. Since then the company has gained enormous experience and
know-how in the field of renewable energies. It is going to expand its activities as project
developer, financier and EPC contractor also to other Asia-Pacific markets. juwi CFO
Martin Winter says: "We think that the markets in Asia-Pacific have a large untapped
potential for renewable energies. Asia has a backlog of demand for renewable energies
and its energy demand is steadily increasing. We therefore expect high growth rates in the
field of renewable energies. With 16 years of experience, juwi can contribute significantly
to the development of the green energy market." In the medium-term juwi not only plans to
be active in the field of solar, but also in the field of wind and other forms of renewable
energy such as bioenergy.
Just one month ago juwi and its strategic Japanese partner started the construction of asolar free-field plant in Japan. The project is located in the south of Japan which has acapacity of one megawatt and will produce environmentally friendly electricity forapproximately 300 households. The plant will be connected to the grid by mid-December.

Feb 8, 2011 Full Version 12 comments1.Download and extract with winrar. 2. Put the Call-In folder in your steam/steamapps/sourcemods folder. 3. Restart Steam 4. Find Call-In in your game...
1 comment by kudden on Feb 13th, 2011
I want to thank everyone who already played and have given their comments on my work! It is much appreciated and I will surely release other games or mods in the future so the feedback will not have gone to waist.
If you are listening to the same music as you were yesterday. Why not listen to the Interview I had the pleasure of having with Phillip.
We talk about the mod and discuss parts that many have criticized as well as combine architecture.
Check it out at Planetphillip.com
1.Download and extract with winrar. 2. Put the Call-In folder in your steam/steamapps/sourcemods folder. 3. Restart Steam 4. Find Call-In in your game...
This mod isn't updated o the latest SDK format. So it will give a lot of "error" objects and purple/black checkerboard textures.
Mod maintainer must update.
I just realized this mod disappeared from my game library, but when I looked in my source mods folder it is still there.
A handful of other mods won't appear either. While I fixed a few by redownloading them, I can't do the same for Call-In, nothing is making it come back.
Is anyone else having this issue? And is there a solution?
thats cause its not in steam you *******
Um i have a really bad glitch going on. Can someone help me? The enviroment is all purple.
Reinstall, because that probably means that the textures are missing.
i take the intel-stick then run and theres nowhere to go.Any advice?
I haven't played it in a while, but I believe a door opens up on the other side of the room. I'll need to check again.
Really nice mod!
Longish, too! You think it's ending and, no!, it keeps on going.
Great map design, good gameplay, and having a storyline helps in setting a mood.
Good work, thank you!
Overall I enjoyed this mod.
The only gripe I had was that the spelling and grammar weren't perfect.
It's weird to think that someone who could make such great looking maps, didn't use a basic spell checker.
9/10, good mod.
Highest Rated (4 agree) 8/10
beautiful textures-
great level design-
nice mix of puzzle & run-n-shoot-
touches on all aspects of HL2 gameplay-
no disappointments, definitely a very fun mod.
look forward to CI2

text: The original Robin is back in business and wearing the costume that helped define him. It appears that Dick Grayson's story has mostly gone unchanged. There's chatter of his time as Batman, a few remarks on his history, but most important of all, he's back as Nightwing! With a few tweaks to his costume (and the return of his taser), Grayson is flipping around the rooftops of Gotham and breaking teeth with his eskima sticks. His rogues gallery was infamous for being absolutely terrible. Blockbuster was great, but then there was the likes of Brutale and Shrike. But, let's hope Saiko more than compensates as his long-term enemy.
