A Course in Miracles
, Lesson 190
Oprah.com | July 08, 2008
You have been going through many lessons and so it is easy to see the joy of God. Why would you choose pain? Pain is a choice that your thoughts make. Pain is a choice of the ego. As you learn to bring your thoughts under the power in you through the Holy Spirit, you understand that joy belongs to you and God wants you to have joy. This is not happiness that comes and goes with what is happening, this is a joy that is continuous through all other emotions because you have made the choice of the joy of God.
I choose the joy of God instead of pain.
Pain is a wrong perspective. When it is experienced in any form, it is a proof of self-deception. It is not a fact at all. There is no form it takes that will not disappear if seen aright. For pain proclaims God cruel. How could it be real in any form? It witnesses to God the Father's hatred of His Son, the sinfulness He sees in him, and His insane desire for revenge and death.
Can such projections be attested to? Can they be anything but wholly false? Pain is but witness to the Son's mistakes in what he thinks he is. It is a dream of fierce retaliation for a crime that could not be committed; for attack on what is wholly unassailable. It is a nightmare of abandonment by an Eternal Love, which could not leave the Son whom It created out of love.
Pain is a sign illusions reign in place of truth. It demonstrates God is denied, confused with fear, perceived as mad, and seen as traitor to Himself. If God is real, there is no pain. If pain is real, there is no God. For vengeance is not part of love. And fear, denying love and using pain to prove that God is dead, has shown that death is victor over life. The body is the Son of God, corruptible in death, as mortal as the Father he has slain.
Peace to such foolishness! The time has come to laugh at such insane ideas. There is no need to think of them as savage crimes, or secret sins with weighty consequence. Who but a madman could conceive of them as cause of anything? Their witness, pain, is mad as they, and no more to be feared than the insane illusions which it shields, and tries to demonstrate must still be true.
It is your thoughts alone that cause you pain. Nothing external to your mind can hurt or injure you in any way. There is no cause beyond yourself that can reach down and bring oppression. No one but yourself affects you. There is nothing in the world that has the power to make you ill or sad, or weak or frail. But it is you who have the power to dominate all things you see by merely recognizing what you are. As you perceive the harmlessness in them, they will accept your holy will as theirs. And what was seen as fearful now becomes a source of innocence and holiness.
My holy brother, think of this awhile: The world you see does nothing. It has no effects at all. It merely represents your thoughts. And it will change entirely as you elect to change your mind, and choose the joy of God as what you really want. Your Self is radiant in this holy joy, unchanged, unchanging and unchangeable, forever and forever. And would you deny a little corner of your mind its own inheritance, and keep it as a hospital for pain; a sickly place where living things must come at last to die?
The world may seem to cause you pain. And yet the world, as causeless, has no power to cause. As an effect, it cannot make effects. As an illusion, it is what you wish. Your idle wishes represent its pains. Your strange desires bring it evil dreams. Your thoughts of death envelop it in fear, while in your kind forgiveness does it live.
Pain is the thought of evil taking form, and working havoc in your holy mind. Pain is the ransom you have gladly paid not to be free. In pain is God denied the Son He loves. In pain does fear appear to triumph over love, and time replace eternity and Heaven. And the world becomes a cruel and a bitter place, where sorrow rules and little joys give way before the onslaught of the savage pain that waits to end all joy in misery.
Lay down your arms, and come without defense into the quiet place where Heaven's peace holds all things still at last. Lay down all thoughts of danger and of fear. Let no attack enter with you. Lay down the cruel sword of judgment that you hold against your throat, and put aside the withering assaults with which you seek to hide your holiness.
Here will you understand there is no pain. Here does the joy of God belong to you. This is the day when it is given you to realize the lesson that contains all of salvation's power. It is this: Pain is illusion; joy, reality. Pain is but sleep; joy is awakening. Pain is deception; joy alone is truth.
And so again we make the only choice that ever can be made; we choose between illusions and the truth, or pain and joy, or hell and Heaven. Let our gratitude unto our Teacher fill our hearts, as we are free to choose our joy instead of pain, our holiness in place of sin, the peace of God instead of conflict, and the light of Heaven for the darkness of the world.
Quote of the Day
"And whether we love, or close our hearts to love, is a mental choice we make, every moment of every day."

How do I cross-compile for a Motorola 68000? The GCC main pages list gcc -m68000 as an option http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.0.4/gcc/M680x0-Options.html#M680x0-Options, but when I do gcc -m68000 test.c
it won't work (unknown option). In the past when I cross-compiled I used avr-gcc or msp-gcc, each needing a separate package to be downloaded, but I do not see the like for the m68000. Any ideas? Thanks

Pool Drowning Deaths Jump in 2012
July 13, 2012
© Veer
With record temperatures all over the country this month, the pool might seem like the best way to keep cool and have some fun outdoors. But even if your kids swim like fish, it's absolutely imperative to stay vigilant. "Drowning is quick and silent; it can happen before any adult knows about it," says Inez Tenenbaum, chairwoman of the Consumer Product Safety Commission.
Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy
Drowning is the number one cause of death of children under 5 and deaths are on the rise, according to a report by TODAY, so it's worth reviewing pool safety guidelines to keep your little mermaid or merman safe.
Plus: All About Infant Swimming Lessons
Since Memorial Day, 77 people have drowned in a pool (most of them kids), and 78 others were involved in near-drowning experiences. Each year, 390 kids under 14 die in accidental drownings, so pool safety should be on everyone's mind when that temperature creeps up the thermometer.
Plus: 11 Hot Swim Suits for Cool Kids
One of the best things you can do for your child is teach them to swim. Babies as young as four months old can learn basic water survival skills along side their parent in programs like Waterbabies, Infant Swim and others.
What measures have you taken to keep your kids safe at the pool this summer?

Ibra is world class! He's tearing up serie A. Was funny when gattuso jumped on him after he injured his arm though.
hes loving his life in italy isnt he..ibra suits serie A more then any other league,he should try EPL some other times in his career tho..
I thought this was a game Milan dominated but Viola put up a good fight, nonetheless it was Zlatan to rescue again for Milan.
it's a shame this goal is at the top of footytube goal of the week...Monaco's Adriano scored a brilliant goal (though my Lillois beat them 2-1) that made Zlatan's look like child's play...still a great goal, but since no one on footytube watches Ligue 1, and everyone watches Milan matches, there you have it...in the interest of great goals, I highly recommend watching
it was very nice, much harder than the Zlatans one, and it was stylish too, Ibra had more individual work but a lousy finish, lucky it went int..It's a hard choice but I like Adrianos more!
Great goal by Ibra, savior of the team, Fav team in Serie A, great Job, hahaha Inter in Europa League
True, I agree, but that 1 goal for Ajax is a LEGEND!!!He needs to be the star, at FCB he was 1 of many, look at his last season for Inter, he works hard and is used to the playing style in Italy because of his time at Juve and Inter.
I disagree. He had a great start at Barca and yea he slowed down a bit near the middle but then Pep just stopped playing him.
i think Pep stop playing him because of that dry spell in the middle. On a team like Barca there is a constant flow of incoming talent. If you are not preforming, there is room for you on the bench.
He stopped being Barça's n°1 striker because he stopped showing passion and stopped working to prove himself. As CescArse said, he needs to be the star, and everyone must bow to him. If they do, he'll be a good striker. But he's far from a legend.
He's actually been playing pretty well. Much better option than Ronaldinho at this point in his career. Which is a shame, I love Ronnie.
Beautiful goal from Zlatan! he knew exactly what he wanted to do to score with a overhead kick! Que Belle

Take-Two Trademarks GTA TV and Rockstar TV
Posted on February 21, 2012 AT 06:26am
THE BUZZ: Take-Two has trademarked GTA TV and Rockstar TV, which could hint at a wider cross-media promotion for Grand Theft Auto V.
The trademarks themselves are open to interpretation, with the listings mentioning:
"Computer game programs and software; animated motion picture films featuring entertainment, namely, action, adventure, dramatic, comedic, children's and documentary themes; pre-recorded video discs and other pre-recorded digital and electronic media in the field of live action programs, motion pictures, or animation featuring entertainment, namely, action, adventure, dramatic, comedic, children's and documentary themes."
EGM's TAKE: Could we be seeing some GTA themed TV programming or even a web series in the next few months leading up to the game's release? This wouldn't be the first time we've seen an advertising campaign like this, Ubisoft did it with Assassin's Creed and EA with Dragon Age, both with major success. How would the team choose to go about it though, would they use live action or animation? Personally We feel that live action would be a bad move as it may cheapen the Grand Theft Auto universe down to a bad gang movie.
Rockstar recently revealed that they plan on offering new Grand Theft Auto V details in the next few months.
What would you like to see Take-Two do with these trademarks? Let us know in the comments below.

The Victory Hammer 8-Ball is basically a lower-seat, cheaper specification version of the Hammer muscle bike. It still has the same gutsy motor, but instead of twin front brake discs it has a single caliper and rotor, plain black paint instead of the more upmarket finish usually seen and the suspension is lowered front and rear to drop the seat ...

The Street Glide tries hard to bridge the gap between full-on tourer and custom street bike. The bike is based on Harley's spine frame touring chassis but is 'slammed' for a low mean look. The twin cam 96 cubic inch (1584cc) engine hauls the bike briskly to a comfortable 80mph cruising speed with just the right amount of vibes. As ...
1580cc, 67bhp, 118mph, Insurance group 16
One of Harley's whackier 'image bikes', in a similar vein to the Harley-Davidson Bad Boy, Street Bob and Night Rod. The Harley-Davidson Night Train is a Europe-only model based on the Softail. It's lean, mean and very black and it goes pretty much as it looks. If you like the style of the Harley-Davidson Night Train you won't be disappointed.

The Netherlands' incumbent telecom operator KPN has continued its aggressive push for growth in pay TV by acquiring local cable operator Caiway for an undisclosed amount. Caiway delivers TV, broadband and telephony services in several parts of the Netherlands through cable and fiber infrastructures and had intended to get into IPTV to expand its footprint. Instead it has been swept up by KPN's grander plans to become a major player in the Dutch pay-TV market by reaching cable as well as its own IPTV and DTT subscribers.
KPN's recent fortunes in pay TV have been mixed, with strong growth in IPTV balanced by slight decline in DTT and continued erosion of its subscriber base for mobile TV based on the ill-fated DVB-H standard. As of June 1, KPN will follow the lead of many other operators by stopping its DVB-H-based mobile TV service. And like some other operators, KPN's mobile TV service got off to a good start in 2008, registering 40,000 customers in the first year, but since then, subscriber numbers have fallen steadily in the absence of compelling content and lack of sufficient quality. There are currently 20,000 customers left. KPN wants to use the frequencies allocated to DVB-H for its DTT service Digitenne and hopes to increase subscribers there, which declined by 13,000, or 1.5 percent, over the first quarter of 2011 from 895,000 to 882,000 by March 31.
However, IPTV subscriptions rose strongly by 19.2 percent from 302,000 to 360,000 over the same period. This took KPN's total number of pay-TV subscribers to 1.242 million, or 16 percent of the Dutch pay-TV market. The Caiway acquisition brings an additional 143,000 TV subscribers, raising KPN's share to 18 percent.

Is Search Engine Optimization (SEO) worth it for SMBs?
Type 'Search Engine Optimization' and you will find about 108,000,000 results in Google. Couple this daunting number with the fact that most Small to Medium-Size Business (SMB) has neither the budget nor talent to effectively optimize the business' website for top search placement, and you have to ask yourself "Is it worth the investment?"
Many businesses, not only SMB's, have questioned the return on investment (ROI) of search engine optimization when compared to all online marketing options. Furthermore, whenever a search is performed for SEO services, SMB's are often left more confused than helped. Even conducting a search for simple SEO or any related search will deliver millions of articles both supporting and arguing against the value of SEO. Let alone the fact that the practice of SEO is still relatively young, thus resulting in a wide range of skill levels and quality of work. This leaves many SMB decision makers in a difficult spot.
The Value is Not Lost
So where is the money going? A recent survey conducted by Merchant Circle asked 2,500 small businesses (this sample was from their 1.6 million member database), "If you had to put all your marketing time and budget into only one channel [SEO, Paid Search, Mobile, Social and Traditional media], what would it be?" The results (also republished by Search Engine Land) are below:
Image via: Search Engine Land
It is clear that most SMBs recognize the value of effective Search Engine Optimization, and it has more to do than just being on the first page of Google. One reason is probably because nearly 80% of consumers are utilize online searches prior to making their buying decision – Google calls it the Zero Moment of Truth, but it is essentially has to do with the change that Internet Marketing has had on the buying process of a consumer. In the end, having an online presence is crucial to all business efforts.
Maximize your SEO
The lesson from this is simple and at the same time complex. SEO is not as easy as googling "SEO", but requires finding the right team (in-house or outsourced) and clear strategic goals. Once the team is built, to maximize return on your SEO campaign, the decision maker(s) must know the ultimate goal – whether it is increase traffic, reduction of bounce rate or higher conversions.
Ultimately, proper search engine optimization cannot only improve search engine placement, but help every small business owner see the effective return on the business' online marketing investment.

One Response to "Is Search Engine Optimization (SEO) worth it for SMBs?"
Yes it's worth it. SMBs aim profit too and to make this happen they need to cope with internet marketing as well. Business is always business. Small or big, it needs to compete in the vast world of business and Internet.

Have you ever attended a large expo and wished someone would remind you about the events you don't want to miss? Or as an exhibitor, maybe you'd like a more reliable way to drive traffic to your booth or to the panel discussion that you're moderating in 15 minutes?
Ladies and gentlemen, take out your digital cellphones and dial into ShowPhone. Following its initial rollout this summer at Advanstar's Customer Contact Week at the McCormick Place Complex in Chicago, Kikucall Inc.'s new wireless marketing technique may soon find its way to a conference near you.
At the Advanstar show, attendees were met between the registration area and exhibit area and invited to sign up. Only digital cellphone users can receive the service, which sends short text messages to attendees' phones. Of the 6,500 attendees, more than 500 tested the ShowPhone system. Among the messages they received:
Free Coffee & Cappucino. Go Now to Mitel Booth 653. Supplies Limited.
PeopleSoft Presents Next Generation Call Center. 3:45 Theater One.
Free Blooze CD. Go to Frogjazz Booth 1433 and Collect Your Free CD.
"Our goal was to manipulate attendee behavior by sending them to specific booths or events," explains Ryan Labbe, president of Washington, D.C.-based Kikucall Inc. (www.kikucall.com). "One of FrogJazz's goals was to run out of CDs. And they did. It was our proof of concept. We were wonderfully surprised by the response." Other corporate participants included Verizon and WorldCom.
Ninety-five percent of cellphones sold today are digital, which Labbe says is one of the keys to ShowPhone's viability. In fact, most phones sold since 1995 can receive text messages.
The ShowPhone system is "100 percent opt-in," says Labbe. Users who want the service dial a specific number that captures their telephone number. Those who dial in and hang up immediately receive a variety of general and specific messages — about four per hour. But those who call in and follow a series of profiling menus ("Which industries are you interested in?" "Are you interested in product demonstrations?" and so on) get messages targeted to their needs.
Why market to cellphones? Sheer volume, Labbe says. "There are 140 million cellphones in the United States," he says. "By comparison, there are only 5 million [PDAs]. We've heard that as many as 80 [percent] to 90 percent of attendees at these shows carry cellphones."
The other big question: Who pays? "The attendee doesn't pay anything," Labbe says. "There probably will be a slotting fee for exhibitors. Or we may sell the service to trade show operators and let them sell it to exhibitors."
The service is numbingly cheap to operate. Kikucall brings no equipment or hardware to a show; the success of the service is all based on attendees carrying a device that they already carry. And opting out is as easy as opting in: Just call back in and disconnect. Labbe says that his company does not sell the cellphone numbers it collects.
Marguerite Gervaise, a marketing manager for Santa Ana, Calif.-based Advanstar, was pleased with ShowPhone's debut. "With everyone having cellphones attached to their heads, we thought this was a great idea," she says.
Not that sending messages to attendees' personal phones wasn't of some concern. "Either people would love it or hate it," Gervaise says. "Thankfully, 95 percent of the people were happy. The other 5 percent? They complained, 'I got messages all the time!'"
Gervaise would like to do it again, but would cut back the volume of messages, moving away from Advanstar announcements and emphasizing messages from exhibitors.

Let's start with a disclaimer. I think self-publishing is a viable form of publishing. There have been many cases where self-published authors have done amazingly well, and those stories seem to be growing at an exponential rate. And, I think there are certain circumstances where self-publishing might not be just a good alternative but actually a better alternative to traditional publishing.
So, let's get that out of the way. This blog is not an anti-self-publishing piece. Instead, it's a word of caution.
Articles describing the glories of self-publishing are popping up every day. Technology and infrastructure has advanced to the point where it's perfectly possible for someone to present a book to the world and have it selling hundreds of thousands of copies in just a few months. This has happened, and it will continue to happen.
Combine that success with the woes of the traditional publishing routes. Disruptive technologies and waning readership have hurt both publishers and booksellers. The poor economy has made publishers skittish about accepting new, untested authors. Agents are more and more in demand. Contracts are harder and harder to get.
Looking at those last two paragraphs it seems like self-publishing might be the best way to go, right?
Here's my worry:
Publishing has always been hard. It's always been a struggle to rise through the slushpile, whether that slush was with an agent or a publisher. It's always taken a long time, and it's been a fight the entire time. Authors write and rewrite that first chapter, paragraph and sentence to get their submission seen.
And then it gets rejected anyway, so you write another book and you send that one out. And it gets rejected. Authors wore rejections as a badge of honor. At one time there was even an award (riffing off the Writers of the Future award) called Writers With No Future, where the winner was whoever could produce the most rejection letters, by weight.
This isn't to say that rejections are wonderful. But rejections make you work harder. They make you go back to your manuscript and revise, or rewrite, or throw it away entirely and write something even better. The submission and rejection process is the fiery furnace that refines your writing, removing the impurities and leaving the gold.
While there are always stories like Stephenie Meyer, who sold her first novel, there are many many more stories like my friend Brandon Sanderson, who sold his sixth novel (and at that point he was already working on his thirteenth). My brother, Dan Wells, sold his sixth novel. One new author whose story I love is Brodi Ashton: she sold a three-book deal to Balzer and Bray for lots of money after only two days on submission! Of course, that was only after being rejected by 92 agents, after her first book with that agent didn't sell, and after she got a new agent.
The moral of the story: success almost always comes after a long, hard fight.
Aspiring authors will inevitably think: but that sounds terrible! Why would I ever want to go through that? The answer is just what I said above: the struggle is valuable, because it makes you work harder, and it makes your writing better.
So, what does this have to do with self-publishing?
When you finish your first manuscript, you probably think it's pretty good. Maybe it is. I'm not saying it's impossible to create something great on the first try (though I am saying it's really, really rare).
So, you take that first manuscript and you shop it around. You submit to agents, and you get some rejections and it really sucks. And then you turn to the internet, and you read that some other author has sold five hundred thousand ebooks by self-publishing! You read that another author made $200,000 in a single month! Man, screw this traditional publishing crap! Self-publishing is both easier and more lucrative!
And maybe you'll make a million dollars. It's definitely possible.
But unless you have gone through all the years of work and refinement and revisioning and rewriting, then odds are you won't. Because it's the work that makes your writing good, and good writing is what sells.
Again, I'm not anti-self-publishing. But to me it has all the dangers of a get-rich-quick scheme: It's very tempting, because you see other people who have done it and made a lot of money; it's easy to get into; it seems like an appealing alternative to a very difficult path. And, just like a get-rich-quick scheme, 99% of people who try it won't get rich. Some will lose money. Some will get their name forever plastered on a poorly written book, and spend the rest of their career hiding their past.
So this is not a blog to tell you not to self-publish. It's just to warn you:Be wary of the hype. If you're going into self-publishing, you have to be a great writer—as good and polished as if you'd worked your way through years of rejections and rewrites. And you have to be a great businessperson, because you don't have professional editors, marketers, salespeople, accountants, graphic designers, distributors and retailers in your corner. It's all you.
If you can handle that, then dive right in. The changes to the industry really are amazing, and the right person with the right book can be very successful. Just know what you're getting into, and make sure you're ready before you do it.

By Wayne Arnold and Tetsushi Kajimoto
HONG KONG (Reuters) - Asia's once-reliable export engine remains stalled two years into a global economic recovery, raising concerns about the region's competitiveness and its ability to motor through the next tough time for emerging markets.
Exports from seven of East Asia's biggest exporters - Japan, China, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, Hong Kong and Singapore - grew by just 0.8 percent in the third quarter, according to a Reuters analysis of national trade data, led by a 3.1 percent gain in exports to the U.S. from the same three months of 2012.
The data reinforce a worrying trend in a region where gross exports represent more than a third of its combined economic output: since peaking in 2010 as the global economy rebounded from financial crisis, Asia's export growth has rapidly cooled.
Double-digit growth, common to the past decade, petered out in 2011 and has not recovered.
"There is really no change in the main thing that's going on across Asia - which is no growth in exports the past two years," said Tim Condon, head of financial markets research at ING in Singapore.
"I think it's weak global spending, it's as simple as that."
There is a growing consensus that Asia faces slower growth and more uncertain prospects once the U.S. economy improves to the point where the Federal Reserve begins scaling back five years of radical monetary stimulus.
If exports fail to offset rising interest rates and ebbing global capital flows, economists say, Asia will have to rely on domestic demand to take up the slack - a difficult proposition given aging populations and other structural hurdles.
The failure of Asian exports to rise in tandem with global recovery has sparked a debate among economists about whether Asia might be losing its competitiveness as wages and other costs rise. But Asia's share of U.S. imports, according to data from the U.S. Census Bureau and Bureau of Economic Analysis, has been growing since 2002 alongside a steady climb in China's exports since its 2001 entry into the World Trade Organization.
"There's no compelling evidence that the competitiveness of EM (emerging market) Asia's exports has fallen," said Johanna Chua, head of Asia economics and market analysis at Citigroup in Hong Kong. The sluggish recovery in U.S. imports reflects the lopsided nature of the U.S. recovery, she said, one led by housing and shale gas instead of consumer spending or business investment.
"We're not getting a broad-based recovery," said Chua.
Japan, however, is a different story.
The world's third-largest economy has slowly been losing market share in the United States. Japanese exports fell almost 11 percent to $180.4 billion (112.1 billion pounds) in the third quarter, leading Asia's export decline.
In local currency terms, Japanese exports climbed nearly 13 percent in the quarter because of a sharply weaker yen over the past 12 months. But the volume of shipments was virtually flat.
And while Japan lost its lead as Asia's top exporter to the United States and Europe a decade ago, it now appears to be losing its edge in China to neighbour and rival South Korea.
Asia's exports to China in the third quarter rose 1 percent, with a 9 percent rise in exports from Korea offsetting an 11 percent decline in exports to China from Japan. Indeed, in the past five years, Korea has edged out Japan as Asia's biggest exporter to China.
That may be a reflection less of declining popularity or competitiveness of Japanese products than a shift of production out of Japan to other production bases in Asia and the United States - the "hollowing out" of Japanese industry.
This phenomenon explains how a weak yen can boost exports in yen and the earnings of Japanese exporters calculated in yen even though shipments from Japan are falling. Japan's exporters are earning more from products sold - and manufactured - overseas.
"Japanese automobiles and general machinery remain competitive and, in fact, Japanese auto sales have increased in the United States this year from last. But exports have not increased as much," said Yasuo Yamamoto, senior economist at Mizuho Research Institute in Tokyo.
"The reason is their continued shift to local production. The weak yen at current levels won't help reverse the trend of hollowing out of industry and is unlikely to boost exports as much as it used to."

Priced accordingly for a premium filter product. If you want clean air to come out of your vacuum don't skimp on bargain no-name replacement products. Get the real deal for your Kenmore machine and you won't regret it.
Gillette, WY
via sears.com
Since the reduction in quality and air filtering properties in tge disposable canister bags for Intuition and Progressive Canisters, I recommend replacing this filter FREQUENTLY! Since the newly designed bags came out, this filter gets dirty MUCH faster and unless it is replaced OFTEN, the HEPA filtration properties are severely reduced.
via sears.com
The difference between using this filter and not is huge and I would recommend using a vacuum, that is not rated as a HEPA vacuum. by using this filter along with the HEPA bags it reduces the fine particular in the air and resulting dust in my home is greatly reduced.
Reno, NV
via sears.com
These are so awesome. They make my vacuum cleaner provide deeper cleaning and better air quality for my home. Little on the expensive side but do not need to change for awhile.
Port Washington, NY
via sears.com
The vacuum cleaner has held up well and the filters seem to do well. There is no evidence of dust laden air coming out of the the unit so it appears the filters are doing the job on capturing the smaller particles that might normally get through a vacuum cleaner

State Department Officials Have an Obligation to Speak Out Against Israeli Threats to Attack U.S. Boat to Gaza
Posted on: Friday, June 24, 2011
Keywords: Gaza, Israel, Middle East, US Foreign Policy
This article has been sent to us from USTOGAZA.
Athens, June 24, 2011- U.S. peace activists preparing to set sail on the U.S. Boat to Gaza, The Audacity of Hope, expressed profound disappointment over a statement issued by the U.S. State Department on Wednesday, June 22, 2011. Instead of calling on the Israeli government to let a flotilla of unarmed civilians sail to Gaza, the United States government is pressuring its own citizens to refrain from legal acts.
On Wednesday, the State Department sent out a "travel advisory" urging Americans not to participate in the Gaza Freedom Flotilla. According to the statement, U.S. citizens are advised against traveling to Gaza by any means, including via sea, noting that previous attempts to enter Gaza by sea "have been stopped by Israeli naval vessels and resulted in the injury, death, arrest, and deportation of U.S. citizens."
"Apparently, the State Department subscribes to the view that Israel's anticipated violence against unarmed protesters is an immutable act of nature," said Hagit Borer, a professor of Linguistics at the University of Southern California and a passenger on the U.S. boat. "This is a remarkable attitude, coming from a government that provides the Israeli government with billions of dollars in military aid and routinely uses its veto to protect the Israeli government from censure of its occupation policies by the UN Security Council."
Passengers on the boat noted that the U.S. State Department has a legal obligation to act to protect U.S. citizens when they are traveling abroad. "So far, U.S. government officials have failed to use their influence to discourage Israeli authorities from ordering a physical assault on us," said Just Foreign Policy policy director Robert Naiman, another passenger on the U.S. boat. "Of course, State Department officials have an obligation to speak out against threats to attack us. It is deeply disappointing that they have so far failed to do so."
Below is a copy of a letter the passengers of The Audacity of Hope sent of June 14, 2011 to President Obama, Secretary of State Hilary Clinton and other high-ranking government officials. There has yet to be a response to the letter.
14 June 2011
The President
The White House
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW
Washington, DC 20500
Dear Mr. Obama:
We are writing to inform you that 50 unarmed Americans will soon be sailing in a U.S. flagged ship called The Audacity of Hope as part of an international flotilla to Gaza.
Our peaceful demonstration will challenge Israel's blockade of Gaza, which has effectively imprisoned 1.6 million civilians, almost half of whom are under the age of 16. The blockade has impoverished the people of Gaza, deprived them of needed materials and supplies to rebuild their lives after the Israeli attack of late 2008 - early 2009, impeded those who are ill or infirm from seeking outside medical aid, and prevented students from seeking education outside of Gaza. 45% of the working age population is unemployed.
In addition to 36 passengers, 4 crew, and 10 members of the press, our boat will carry thousands of letters of support and friendship from people throughout the U.S. to the women, children and men of Gaza. There will be no weapons of any sort on board. We will carry no goods of any kind for delivery in Gaza. Our mission is from American civil society to the civil society of Gaza. We do not serve the agenda of any political leadership, government or group. We are engaged solely in non-violent action in support of the Palestinian people and their human rights.
In our country's great tradition of citizen activists taking nonviolent action to stand up to injustice, we sail in the hope that our voyage will show the people in Gaza that they are not alone, and that it will call attention to the morally and legally indefensible collective punishment of a population of civilians.
Mr. President, you have noted the unsustainability of the Gaza blockade. And your administration has spoken boldly in support of peaceful demonstrations throughout this "Arab Spring."
As U.S. citizens we expect our country and its leaders to help ensure the Flotilla's safe passage to Gaza - as our country should support our humanitarian demand that the Gaza blockade be lifted. This should begin by notifying the Israeli government in clear and certain terms that it may not physically interfere with the upcoming Flotilla of which the U.S. boat-The Audacity of Hope -- is part. We-authors, builders, firefighters, lawyers, social workers, retirees, Holocaust survivors, former government employees and more-expect no less from our President and your administration.
Our boat will sail from the eastern Mediterranean in the last week of June. We shall be grateful to you for acting promptly and decisively to uphold the rights of civilians to safe passage on the seas.

- Description
Lovers of design classics are in for another treat. Ever since the 1960s, bar accessories from Arne Jacobsen's Cylinda-Line have defined the good life when it comes to serving everything from the perfect martini (shaken or stirred) to a classic scotch and soda. The bar set includes a cocktail mixer and spoon, a shaker, ice bucket with tongs, a two-litre pitcher with strainer, small glass coasters and a serving tray. Paul Smith has transformed Jacobsen's bar series into a gorgeous fantasy in black. The special titanium alloy surface lends the steel a rich, deep black colour. Handles on the serving tray and the ice bucket remain in the original brushed steel finish, creating an effective contrast. Another surprising innovation is a collection of statements by the British designer himself, engraved into the black surface to reveal their message in steel. Paul Smith asks us to consider thoughts such as "Take pleasure seriously" and "Start something new" as we enjoy our drinks. Statement is the ideal gift for the design-loving man or woman who is celebrating a special birthday, an anniversary or merely the joy of everyday living. Statement is being produced in a limited edition in 2010.
In detail:- Type : Shaker
Colour : Shiny black
Material : Stainless steel with titanium surface

In order to succeed you must BE. DO. HAVE.
February 22, 2012 by Lance Carter
Filed under Acting Advice Columns
Written by Jamison Haase, L.A. On-Camera Training Center
Most actors start at the end.
Most actors after having moved to Los Angeles right away set about trying to find an agent. They think to themselves, "I need an agent in order to get auditions so that can be the TV/Film actor/star that I want to be."
They struggle to find an agent, or on the very outside chance find someone, but still rarely get auditions, let alone callbacks and bookings. Over time, they grow more and more frustrated, and shed more and more tears not realizing that they were doomed from the start.
Ultimately, they were really saying, "Once I have the career I want, THEN I'll start working hard, and THEN I'll be the person I want to be." You don't have to be caught in that cycle. I know, because I was thinking that way when I first started; spending five years of my life not understanding the key to real success.
One simple phrase, "Be, do, have." Read more

Time for a ban?
Should the ruling bodies now outlaw anchored putters?
Last Updated: 02/11/12 8:43am
Should the anchored putter be banned?
Where do you stand on the long putter debate?
Do recent majors wins for Keegan Bradley (2011 USPGA), Webb Simpson (2012 US Open) and Ernie Els (2012 Open Championship) suggest they're giving golfers an unfair advantage?
And should that lead to a ban?
Or should we recognise that there isn't really a problem given that those regarded as the game's best putters (such as Luke Donald and Brandt Snedeker) are still using a traditional flatstick?

November 29 Reinventing the Enterprise: Mobile Wireless
The writing is on the wall for the emergence of mobile wireless computing, yet agencies tend to implement the technologies in a very piecemeal, reactive fashion, without enterprise wide policies and standards. Doing it this way increases costs and security risks. This story will be a look into the future at how mobile wireless technologies are going to permeate all facets of enterprise IT and how smart IT organizations can start preparing for that day now.
