River Oaks, Estate of the Day
Filed under: Estates
As commenter Spectacular Bid pointed out last year on a different home, architect John Staub was one of the top architects for wealthy families in Dallas and Houston in the early to mid 20th century. Today's home in the River Oaks area of Houston shows off a bit of Staub's appeal. This home was designed by the Houston architect in 1933. Staub reversed the front and rear elevations to insure private arrivals. The home has a Tudor/Jacobean style but manages to avoid the slightly Disneyfied appearance that some Tudor aspirants can get. A two-story addition was done by architect P.M. Frost in the 1970s, expanding the interior space while keeping the home's street-side facade.
The reception parlor features carved golden oak wood paneling reportedly rescued by a New Orleans antiquities dealer and re-assembled here. A sky-painted ceiling with cherubs completes the Napoleonic theme. The original entry foyer was designed by Staub and has a wrought iron balustrade and banister. The living room with its bay window alcove and plaster moldings is also a Staub creation. The master bedroom has a fireplace with carved marble mantel and surround. The media room which could also serve as a guest suite has a ceiling-mounted retractable projection screen and projector and a built-in kitchenette with beverage fridge. The grounds include a croquet court, koi pond, sculpted shrubs and marble statuary well positioned in graceful courtyard spaces. This elegant home is listed at $9.5 million with Martha Turner Properties.

The Einstein Two Dog ET-402TS is medium range trainer loaded with unique features making it the most humane and effective trainer available.
Don't be fooled by the small collar receiver size 2"X1.5"X1" 2.4 ounce, it provides plenty of stimulation for most dogs. The unique COS (control of stimulation) technology provides very clean stimulation without the normal head jerking often found with other training collars.
The tapping sensation employed is similar to vibration, but more intense making it a good substitute to the stimulation. The stop watch style transmitter is so ergonomic; you don't even have to look at the remote allowing you to watch your dog. The night tracking light is controlled by the transmitter allowing the user to flash or continuously light up the collar receiver for locating your dog after dark. Lost transmitter beeper can be turned on to help locate a misplaced or lost transmitter. The transmitter even floats! Assembled in the USA.

Quadrantid meteor shower to set night skies ablaze
Get ready fireball fans, one of the best meteor showers of the year is about to peak. Each new year begins with a visit from the Quadrantids, which are known for producing lots of bright fireballs in the night sky.
The Quadrantids don't have the following of more famous asteroid showers like the Perseids because the Quadrantid peak only lasts for a few hours, compared to peaks that can last for a few days for the better known meteor groups. But if you know when to look, the Quadrantids typically deliver. NASA says it's possible to see them at a rate of more than one per minute, with many of them being of the exceptionally bright and longer-lasting fireball variety.… Read more

Christian Encounters, a series of biographies from Thomas Nelson Publishers, highlights important lives from all ages and areas of the Church. Some are familiar faces. Others are unexpected guests. But all, through their relationships, struggles, prayers, and desires, uniquely illuminate our shared experience.
As an inventor, astronomer, physicist, and philosopher, Isaac Newton forever changed the way we see and understand the world. At one point, he was the world's leading authority in mathematics, optics, and alchemy. And surprisingly he wrote more about faith and religion than on all of these subjects combined. But his single-minded focus on knowledge and discovery was a great detriment to his health. Newton suffered from fits of mania, insomnia, depression, a nervous breakdown, and even mercury poisoning.
Yet from all of his suffering came great gain. Newton saw the scientific world not as a way to refute theology, but as a way to explain it. He believed that all of creation was mandated and set in motion by God and that it was simply waiting to be "discovered" by man. Because of his diligence in both scientific and biblical study, Newton had a tremendous impact on religious thought that is still evident today.

Fungi Spores *
Difficulty | |
Time Required | Very Long (1+ months) |
Prerequisites | None |
Material Availability | This project requires access to a place where mushrooms grow wildly (and you have permission to harvest them) or the purchase of a mushroom growing kit from an online vendor. |
Cost | Low ($20 - $50) |
Safety | Do not eat any mushrooms that you find growing in the wild. |
*Note: This is an abbreviated Project Idea, without notes to start your background research, a specific list of materials, or a procedure for how to do the experiment. You can identify abbreviated Project Ideas by the asterisk at the end of the title. If you want a Project Idea with full instructions, please pick one without an asterisk.
Mushrooms are not plants, but are fungi. Fungi include mushrooms, molds, and lichen. They do not produce seeds to reproduce like some plants. Fungi produce spores, like more primitive plants do. The spores of a mushroom are contained in the tiny folds around the stem underneath the mushroom cap. Different species of mushrooms have different types of spores, with different colors and different patterns of folds. You can make mushroom prints by removing the stem from a mushroom and placing the cap on a white piece of paper, leaving it undisturbed overnight. In the morning you can carefully lift the cap to see a design left by the release of the tiny spores. What do the spore patterns from different species of mushrooms look like? You can collect the spores from different species and try to propagate them in a nutrient rich humus or manure. Which species are easiest to propagate? Do mushrooms need the same things as plants to grow? (Gardner & Webster, 1987, 42)Share your story with Science Buddies!

Self-described "Sloppy Pop" trio Parlovr (pronounced "parlor") formed in Montreal, Quebec in 2005 around the talents of Louis Jackson, Alex Cooper, and Jeremy MacCuish. Employing a heavily beat-up arsenal of drums, keyboards, and guitars, the trio bangs out willful slabs of experimental rock that reflect a wide range of influences that include the Pixies, Guided by Voices, and the Talking Heads, as well as a healthy dose of the kind of anthem-driven, ensemble-heavy indie rock that has fueled similarly themed Canadian acts like Plants and Animals, Arcade Fire, and Handsome Furs. Parlovr issued its debut, self-released eponymous LP in 2008. ~ James Christopher Monger

Meningococcal Vaccines: What you need to know.
Meningococcal disease is a serious illness, caused by a bacteria. It is a leading cause of bacterial meningitis in children 2 through 18 years old in the United States. Meningitis is an infection of fluid surrounding the brain and the spinal cord. Meningococcal disease also causes blood infections. About 2,600 people get meningococcal disease each year in the U.S. 10 to 5 percent of these people die, in spite of treatment with antibiotics. Of those who live, another 11to19 percent lose their arms or legs, become deaf, have problems with their nervous systems, become mentally retarded, or suffer seizures or strokes. Anyone can get meningococcal disease. But it is most common in infants less than one year of age and people with certain medical conditions, such as lack of a spleen. College freshmen who live in dormitories have an increased risk of getting meningococcal disease. Meningococcal infections can be treated with drugs such as penicillin. Still, about 1 out of every ten people who get the disease dies from it, and many others are affected for life. This is why preventing the disease through use of meningococcal vaccine is important for people at highest risk.
Two meningococcal vaccines are available in the U.S.: Meningococcal polysaccharide vaccine (M.P.S.V.4 or Menomune) has been available since the 1970s. Meningococcal conjugate vaccine (M.C.V.4 or Menactra) was licensed in 2005. Both vaccines can prevent 4 types of meningococcal disease, including 2 of the 3 types most common in the United States and a type that causes epidemics in Africa. Meningococcal vaccines cannot prevent all types of the disease. But they do protect many people who might become sick if they didn't get the vaccine. Both vaccines work well, and protect about 90 percent of those who get it. Menactra is expected to give better, longer-lasting protection. Menactra should also be better at preventing the disease from spreading from person to person.
Menactra is recommended for all children at their routine preadolescent visit (11 to 12 years of age). For those who have never gotten Menactra previously, a dose is recommended at high school entry. Other adolescents who want to decrease their risk of meningococcal disease can also get the vaccine. Meningococcal vaccine is also recommended for other people at increased risk for meningococcal disease:
Menactra is the preferred vaccine for people 11 to 55 years of age in these risk groups, but Menomune can be used if Menactra is not available. Menomune should be used for children 2 to 10 years old, and adults over 55, who are at risk.
People 2 years of age and older should get 1 dose. (Sometimes an additional dose is recommended for people who remain at high risk. Ask your provider.) Menomune may be recommended for children 3 months to 2 years of age under special circumstances. These children should get 2 doses, 3 months apart.

It makes no difference whether it is a student lead prayer or one lead by a teacher. Either way, they have no place in a public school. If you want your kid to say prayers in school, then send them to a religious school.

Although I kept the "paintings,". I use that term very loosely. They are like mimeographs of a painting, if you remember those. No attempt to add texture to make them look like there was real paint involved. However, the colors and the size worked in my dining area, so I kept them.
My gut reaction when I first unwrapped these 3 canvases was how cheap they look. They are copies of an original painting, and that is very obvious. That can be done well, but in this case it is not done well at all. The quality of the canvas seems great, it's just the image quality that has really suffered. The images online are somehow done in a way that makes the canvases look like they have texture. There is absolutely no texture in real life, although you can see where the brush strokes were on the original. I don't know what else to say except for "cheap, cheap, cheap."
These fit perfectly in the spot we wanted them in. They look great and are very light (which is what we were looking for). We are very pleased with this purchase.
I purchased two sets and hung the pieces consecutively to fill a rather long wall in my dining room. The assortment and brightness of the colors made it very easy to select additional accessories for the room. Delivery was fast and the pieces were packed securely to avoid any damage during shipment. The art looks more expensive than the cost.
Not worth the high price for what you get. I knew it was going to be a print of an oil painting, but the brush strokes are so obvious and makes the print look cheap. It was also smaller than I anticipated, even though the dimensions were listed on the website. I would return it if it didn't cost so much to send back.
We just painted in the living room and I wanted something with lots of color and something to cover a large side wall. The box that is came in was safe and the picture was inperfect condition. I get so many compliments whenfriends come over......WOW where did you get that? The price I thought was fair also. LOVE IT make the room look very modern, the look I wanted .....
I am redoing my dining room and this canvas art fits right in. I love all the colors and am very pleased with these panels to add a pop of color to my room.
Great for the waiting room - just what I wanted. It's going on a smaller wall than I had planned, but I didn't measure before ordering so that's my faulty - duh
I have a big wall in my bedroom that needed a dramatic piece to pull the room together. This was perfect! It completely ties everything together and now I love my room!

I'm pretty sure I said 2 months to those in IRC wondering about the voting scheme. I thought 2 months had gone by, shows how much attention I have been paying. Who picked 1 month, and why did you go against what I initially said? People are complaining in #smogon that it's too early to vote.
It's really not too early to vote. I mean, if it's too early now, it'll be too early in a month as well.. Have a nice day.
I personally don't think that the people that are complaining on IRC that it's too early to vote actually realize how long 1 month really is. I have a feeling they're just saying this because they like the suspect test ladder and don't want to go back to playing standard. I really think it may be too hard to satisfy everyone anyway. For instance, for 1 month, you may get people complaining that it's too short. Then with 2 months, you get people complaining that it's too long (or even that being too short like Hip was mentioning).
Don't post over a lock. To answer your question: the plan where the people who met the eligibility requirements will vote on the future of Garchomp. You know, the plan that was discussed to death with multiple threads in this forum and others... the one that dominated #insidescoop for weeks. I don't understand why people are acting like this was sprung upon them. Voting will commence as soon as I accomplish the two items below: 1) Finish evaluating the special applications 2) Match the qualifying shoddy nicks with forum accounts

M. Brock Fenton, a leading authority on bat behavior and ecology, will conduct an intensive field workshop, providing "hands-on" training for wildlife biologists and others wishing to learn technical skills to work with bats. BCI is sponsoring the workshop, which will be held from August 8-19 at various field sites in and around Toronto, Kingston, and London, Ontario in Canada.
Few nongame specialists have had an opportunity to learn the skills necessary to determine bat status trends and needs. Many bat populations are in decline, and six American species already are listed as endangered. There exists a serious need for qualified individuals to obtain baseline ecological and census data for many poorly understood species.
Dr. Fenton is Chairman of Biology at York University in Toronto, and is a member of BCI's Scientific Advisory Board. He has designed a thorough program which will include; 1) netting and trapping for field sampling; 2) use of bat detectors; 3) light-tagging and other methods of harmless marking of bats for study; 4) field identification; 5) information on how to conduct bat walks and prepare educational materials; 6) literature sources for additional information.
A registration fee of $895 covers all transportation upon arrival at York University, lodging, 19 meals and field expenses. The registration deadline and a non-refundable deposit of $200 is due by March 1st. Registration information should be requested from Pat Morton, Education Coordinator, BCI. Course enrollment is limited and the first 16 qualified applicants will be accepted.
Participants will handle bats and must obtain pre-exposure vaccinations for rabies. All will receive a certificate of completion. It is possible to acquire academic credit through York University by special arrangement.

As the regular season winds down in high school hoops this week, several area boys teams are riding high in the latest New York State Sportswriters rankings.
Canisius is once again the class of Class A. It's a busy week for the top-ranked Crusaders, who host always-tough Bishop Timon-St. Jude on Thursday, followed by the rivarly showdown with 8th-ranked St. Joe's on Saturday at Koessler Center. Canisius won their first meeting last month.
In Class B, Olean once again reigns supreme in the poll. Since their lone loss to 5th-ranked Nichols, the Huskies have won nine in row as they appear primed for another long run in the post-season.
Silver Creek continues to impress the voters in Class C. The unbeaten Black Knights are number two in the state, while Maple Grove is right behind them, ranked 3rd.
Below is a link to the complete rankings, which feature many more teams from Western New York who have earned statewide recognition:

1 note Posted 13, February, 2014 4D's own Drooka teams up with 4D regular Krease to put together this dark mechanical one called 'Tinman'. A sparse and clean minimal intro starts off the tune, with basic percussion and an accompanying ambiance. At the 51 second mark, the Tinman announces his presence, at which point all hell breaks loose. Krease's trademark oldschool wobbles and deep 808's take the listener without mercy, as a screeching metallic sound dances through the air. Percussion that screams Drooka (with hints of Krease's work) hold the track together. This beautiful formula plays on for the most of the tune, and I personally wouldn't have it any other way. Krease switches up his bass work for the second drop, with more presence of his wobbles and the interactions of them between the other elements of the tune. Both producers' individual talents really shine through on this one, out to Drooka and Krease for the free download! Let's hope this isn't the only collaboration the two see. • @drooka• www.facebook.com/pages/Drooka/313676781993472 • @krease• www.facebook.com/kreasedubstep • www.deepdarkdungeondubstep.tumblr.com• www.facebook.com/deepdarkdungeondubstep• www.twitter.com/4d_blog• soundcloud.com/groups/deep-dark-dungeon-dubstep #Deep #Dark #Dungeon #Dubstep #Minimal #Bass #Sub #140 #Music #Drooka #Krease #Tinman #Free #Exclusive #Download #4D
4 notes Posted 11, January, 2014 Epoxtacy presents his darkly written 'Multiverse' to the 4D world. Straight from the 00:00 mark, a dark ambiance fills the air. Hi-hats create a sort of life-raft for the listener to hold on to, later joined by kicks. This sea of darkness continues until the heavy sub and waving growl intertwine the sparse, yet groovy beat. As the tune progresses, the midrange takes more varied dominance over the track, as bongos and an even more chilling ambiance are introduced. A tastefully minimal one, despair fills this multiverse. • @epoxtacyofficial• www.facebook.com/Epoxtacy • www.deepdarkdungeondubstep.tumblr.com• www.facebook.com/deepdarkdungeondubstep• www.twitter.com/4d_blog• soundcloud.com/groups/deep-dark-dungeon-dubstep #deep #dark #dungeon #dubstep #epoxtacy #multiverse #netherlands #free #bass #music #download #140 #sub #4D

5 notes Posted 11, December, 2013 South Bavarian producer Unimog (also known as Moguri, Stratos Zero, and the co-producer of Blanc's latest release) is a new one to the 4D blog, but not to music production. Having (silently) been in the game for almost 10 years, Unimog produces an almost impossible array of music, from italo disco, to 80's synth pop, to IDM, to future garage, and as you can hear today, to dubstep. Unimog wrote a plethora of dubstep tunes back in 2011 and 2012 that are finally now seeing release, 'Shuriken' is the first of these. An oriental flute soars throughout the track as minimalistic percussion and a tearing bass line accompany. Towards the end, the music slows while the familiar flute takes on an echoing solo, with small ambiances in the background, not unsimilar to some of Unimog's other work. The tearing bass takes over, to pick the pattern back up and conclude this menacing tune. I've been pushing him hard to get some of his other tracks out, so hopefully more of these gems will see the light of day. • @unimoglordofthefarmers• www.facebook.com/pages/Unimog/468490216497347• @m-guri• @blanc-1 • www.deepdarkdungeondubstep.tumblr.com• www.facebook.com/deepdarkdungeondubstep• www.twitter.com/4d_blog• soundcloud.com/groups/deep-dark-dungeon-dubstep #Deep #Dark #Dungeon #Dubstep #Unimog #Shuriken #Flute #Free #Exclusive #Download #Oriental #Germany #Bavaria #4D
2 notes Posted 9, December, 2013 Seems to be that time of the year again, Dubstep Forum are hosting their awards nominations for 2013. If you like what we do, we'd really appreciate it if you'd write our name (Deep, Dark, Dungeon Dubstep) in for nomination. Running this blog takes up a big chunk of our free time (which we don't have much of these days), so to even get on that ballot would mean the world to us. (NOTE that writing our name in isn't voting for us, it's simply getting us on the ballot.)Anyways, much love for all the support so far, it's been a bit rough with M.A.K.Z. gone for Drooka and I, but we hope you've all enjoyed these past 6 months. We've got something big in store for this month, so keep an eye out.. 4D isn't done with 2013 yet »http://awards.dubstepforum.com/ #Deep #Dark #Dungeon #Dubstep #DSF #Forum #Awards #4D #Blog
4 notes Posted 3, December, 2013 • Download Metamorphosis EP (MP3 320): tinyurl.com/ozb9499• Download Metamorphosis EP (WAV): tinyurl.com/o9z8mob "Russian born, now London based producer FJH steps up with a very generous offering to the bass music community: the Metamorphosis EP. This EP takes no time getting to the point; 'Cursed Triangle' instantly surrounds the listener with cool chords, beating percussion, and a warm sub. Horns swell as the bass line gallops along, all the while fuzzy hints of a vocal hum embraces the listener. 'Dirty Hands' slows down the action with a smooth lead and laid back plucks. A driving sub guides the track along as minimally appropriate percussion accompany. Midway though the track electro stabs command attention, further adding to the downtempo- yet grooving and lustful- rhythm. 'Mort' picks the pace back up with piano chords, guitar licks, smooth vocals, and other tasteful orchestrations. A hollow bass hits first while the familiar sub follows in aftermath. The track does not let up, as new and interesting orchestrations take turns presenting themselves within the music, all the while the beat keeps the listener's head moving. Last but definitely not least is 'Second Jahz'. Reversed female vocals play as jittery percussion, guitar chords, piano hits, and a melancholic violin open the track. Sub and piano guide the track as precise beats and fx fills the air around the sad vocals. A twisting midrange presents itself after the vocalist takes a break, only to be joined in duet moments later. This brilliant collaboration plays through the rest of the track until a solitary piano, reminiscent of a pianist playing out a vocalist in a small, dark, and smoke-filled 20th century lounge, closes the EP. With no moment short of sonic brilliance, FJH really sets the bar high and takes no prisoners with the Metamorphosis EP. This is not one to miss for lovers of smooth, yet driving, bass music." - @echomaker • @filik• www.facebook.com/xFJHx• twitter.com/xfjhx • www.deepdarkdungeondubstep.tumblr.com• www.facebook.com/deepdarkdungeondubstep• www.twitter.com/4d_blog• soundcloud.com/groups/deep-dark-dungeon-dubstep #Deep #Dark #Dungeon #Dubstep #Minimal #Bass #Sub #140 #Music #FJH #Metamorphosis #EP #Russia #UK #Londom #Free #Exclusive #Download #4D
5 notes Posted 26, November, 2013 "We here at 4D have been fortunate enough for the opportunity to team with Iron Shirt Recordings on their latest project: a free release from the one Yokai. Mystery surrounds the man, a mystery which spills over into his weighty productions. 'Odd' wastes no time imprinting this distinction as it is introduced with a troubling vocal and completely alien tone. As the apprehension mounts, listeners are reintroduced to something familiar… weight. Yokai holds no bars at the drop with a threatening halfstep combination of subsonic frequencies and midrange creations that might as well originate from Mars. 'Horror Park' further twists dark perceptions out of the sound spectrum with an all too real theme park score. It's apparent that this production could serve as a dancefloor basher with all of its weight and snap, yet it also aspires to be something more cerebral – a mindmelding, late night headphone listen. A big thank you to Yokai and Iron Shirt Recordings for sharing this unique set of tunes with us (for free, nonetheless) and, of course, out to all of the Deep, Dark, Dungeon, Dubstep supporters out there." - @drooka • @yokaidubs • @iron-shirt-recordings• www.ironshirtrecordings.com/• www.facebook.com/pages/IronShirtRecordings• twitter.com/Konsida • www.deepdarkdungeondubstep.tumblr.com• www.facebook.com/deepdarkdungeondubstep• www.twitter.com/4d_blog• soundcloud.com/groups/deep-dark-dungeon-dubstep #Deep #Dark #Dungeon #Dubstep #Yokai #Odd #Horror #Park #Iron #Shirt #Recordings #ISR #NZ #Free #Download #4D

Food is one of the most powerful ways that we relate to the people around us, to our community, and to our planet. Our "eating transforms the body of the world into our bodies" (Michael Pollan).
If we are to know ourselves – we have to understand our relation to this thing we call food. Our journey in this seminar has nothing to do with diets or calories. It is about relatedness and discovering the faces of hunger and its power to release our self-centeredness. It is about being gently conscious while connecting with a primal and profound part of our spiritual path.

Both Sunni and Shia Muslims regard Hasan as a martyr.[citation needed] Hasan is one of the five people of the Ahl al-Kisa, as well as a member of the Ahl al-Bayt. Hasan ibn Ali is 2nd Imam of Shia Islam. Hasan is also highly respected by the Sunni as the grandson of Muhammad.
Birth and family life[edit]
According to Shia[9] and Sunni[10] sources, Muhammad, upon the birth of his grandson in 3 AH, was ordered by the archangel Gabriel to name him Hasan - a name not used in the pre-Islamic period.[11] Muhammad also honoured his grandson by reciting the Adhān in his right ear,[12] the Iqāmah in his left ear,[12] shaving his head,[13] and sacrificing a ram for the sake of his birth.[14]
Number of Marriages
He married nine women:[15]
- Um Kulthum bint Alfadhl bin Al-Abbas bin Abdulmuttalib bin Hashim
- Khawla bint Mandhoor bin Zaban bin Syar bin Amro
- Um Basheer bint Abi Mas'ud
- Ju'da bint Al-Ash'ath bin Qays Ma'di Karb Alkindi
- Um Ishaq bint Talha bin Ubaydillah bin Uthman Al-Taymi
- Zainab bint Sabee' bin Abdullah
- Baqliya
- Dhamya'
- Safia
Early life[edit]
As a growing youth Hasan saw his father on the battlefield defending Islam as well as preaching to a vast congregation of believers on the occasion of hajj and as a missionary of Islam to Yemen before retreating to a passive role in the matters of the state during the period of the first three caliphs after the death of his grandfather, Muhammad. Hasan and his younger brother, Husayn ibn Ali, are believed to have been greatly beloved by their grandfather Muhammad as numerous hadiths affirm .[citation needed] There are also hadiths that state that Hasan and Husayn are the Masters of the youth in paradise and that Hasan and his brother Hussein are imams "whether they sit or stand". Hasan is one of five persons included in the Hadith of the Cloak. He is said to have been the first of the Prophet's family to enter Yemeni Kisa after Muhammad and to have walked hand in hand with Muhammad as a child to testify to the truth of Islam at Mubahila.
In Medina when Muhammad was sitting with his companions and Hasan, who was still a child, was playing between his hands, Muhammad is said to have gazed at Hasan and said to his companions "This (grand)son of mine is a delight, and may God place in his hands the reconciliation of two great groups of believers (mu'minun)."[citation needed]
Hasan was raised with Muhammad ibn Abi Bakr and Hussein ibn Ali. After the death of Abu Bakr, Abu Bakr's son Muhammad ibn Abi Bakr was raised by Ali and was brought up with Hasan and Hussein ibn Ali. Hasan was one of the guards defending Uthman ibn Affan when the attackers climbed a wall and went around him and killed Uthman ibn Affan.
When the third caliph was murdered by demonstrators in his palace in Mad'mah Ali was elected to lead the Muslims. Hasan assisted his father: he went to Kufa and raised an army against the dissenting Muslims, then participated actively in the battles of Basra, Siffin and Nahrawan alongside his father, demonstrating skill both as a soldier and a leader.
The Shia view is that Ali's right to the caliphate was usurped and his family abused by Abu Bakr but Ali, Hasan and his younger brother Husayn ibn Ali valued the Muslim community's stability above their own rights, even going to defend the third caliph Uthman before Ali himself received the caliphate.
Upon the death of Ali in Kufa a new caliph had to be elected. According to Ali's appointment before his death the choice was restricted to Hasan and his younger brother Husayn. The latter did not claim the caliphate so Kufi Muslims gave their allegiance (bay'ah) to Hasan without dispute.[16] Most caliph chronologies do not include Hasan ibn Ali among the Rashidun Caliphs. However, many Sunni Muslim historians, such as Suyuti, Ibn al-Arabi, and Ibn Kathir accept Hasan ibn Ali as the last such caliph.[17][18]
Muawiyah ibn Abi Sufyan, who had a long-running dispute with Ali, summoned the commanders of his forces in Syria, Palestine, and Transjordan to join him in preparation for battle. He first attempted to negotiate with Hasan, sending him letters asking him to give up his caliphate, believing he could thus avoid killing fellow Muslims and avoid lingering questions regarding his legitimacy should he kill Hasan outright. Most historians say that large sums of money and promises of vast properties and governorships of provinces were offered to commanders of Hassan's army who left him,one of which was ubaydallah ibn al abbas,the commander of Imam Hassan army and that Muawiyah was not interested in the functions of preaching piety or theology but in expanding his sphere of influence in the territories already conquered by the Muslims and in further conquests to the north and north west of Syria.
Negotiations failed and Muawiyah decided to march against Hasan's army of forty thousand[19] with his own army, claimed to have numbered sixty thousand fighters.[20] The two armies faced each other near Sabat. Hasan is said to have given a sermon in which he proclaimed his hatred of schism and appealed to his men to follow his orders even if they did not agree with them. Some of the troops, taking this as a sign that Hasan was preparing to give up battle, rebelled and attacked him. Hasan was wounded but loyal soldiers surrounded him and managed to kill the mutineers. One commander, Ubayd-Allah ibn Abbas, deserted him and joined Muawiyah's forces.
The two armies fought a few inconclusive skirmishes. Hasan was distressed, understanding that the engagement of Muslims in a battle against each other would mean a loss of many: Muawiyah also had his concerns about being forced into a battle and sent two men from the Quraish tribe to negotiate a settlement.[21] Shia scholars[who?] quote hadith from later Shia Imams to the effect that Hassan lacked the support to fight and win and so ceded power to Muawiya, signing an agreement that he would return the caliphate at his death. According to Shia scholars Hasan stipulated that the caliphate should be returned to him if he was still alive after Muawiyah's death, otherwise it should be given to his younger brother.[22] According to Sunni scholars[who?] Hasan stipulated that Muawiyah should follow the Qur'an and the Sunnah, allow a parliament (shura) as regards the caliphate after his death and refrain from any acts of revenge. Muawiyah accepted the conditions attached to the peace treaty;
- the enforced public cursing of Ali, e.g. during prayers, should be abandoned
- Muawiyah should not use tax money for his own private needs
- there should be peace: followers of Hasan should be given security and their rights[23]
Al-Hasan Al-Basri provides a detailed description of the events:
Sahih Al Bukhari, Volume 3, Book 49 (Peacemaking), Number 867 :[24] Narrated by Al-Hasan Al-Basri
By Allah, Al-Hasan bin Ali led large battalions like mountains against Muawiya. Amr bin Al-As said (to Muawiya), "I surely see battalions which will not turn back before killing their opponents." Muawiya who was really the best of the two men said to him, "O 'Amr! If these killed those and those killed these, who would be left with me for the jobs of the public, who would be left with me for their women, who would be left with me for their children?" Then Muawiya sent two Quraishi men from the tribe of 'Abd-i-Shams called 'Abdur Rahman bin Sumura and Abdullah bin 'Amir bin Kuraiz to Al-Hasan saying to them, "Go to this man (i.e. Al-Hasan) and negotiate peace with him and talk and appeal to him." So, they went to Al-Hasan and talked and appealed to him to accept peace. Al-Hasan said, "We, the offspring of 'Abdul Muttalib, have got wealth and people have indulged in killing and corruption (and money only will appease them)." They said to Al-Hasan, "Muawiya offers you so and so, and appeals to you and entreats you to accept peace." Al-Hasan said to them, "But who will be responsible for what you have said?" They said, "We will be responsible for it." So, what-ever Al-Hasan asked they said, "We will be responsible for it for you." So, Al-Hasan concluded a peace treaty with Muawiya. Al-Hasan (Al-Basri) said: I heard Abu Bakr saying, "I saw Allah's Apostle on the pulpit and Al-Hasan bin 'Ali was by his side. The Prophet was looking once at the people and once at Al-Hasan bin 'Ali saying, 'This son of mine is a Saiyid (i.e. a noble) and may Allah make peace between two big groups of Muslims through him."
After witnessing what happened due to the lust for wealth and power, Hasan of Basra later advocated piety and the condemnation of worldliness which later influenced the development of the Sufis.
Hassan wanted peace. He was one of the guards defending Uthman ibn Affan when the attacker climbed a wall and went around him and killed Uthman ibn Affan. Those events had led to much bloodshed. Many of Hassan's closest friends had been killed in those futile wars, including Muhammad ibn Abi Bakr who he was raised with. Many of the people around him also wanted peace. There was also a Kharijites rebellion on going and these people viewed everyone as an enermy. Hassan viewed Muawiyah as a Muslim, who could deal with the Kharijites. Hassan therefore made the Hassan–Muawiya treaty with Muawiyah.
Muawiyah proceeded to Kufa and demanded that the Muslims there pledge allegiance to him as caliph. He also asked Hasan to join him and support him in the fight against the rebellious Kharijites. Hasan is claimed to have written to him in response: "I have abandoned the fight against you, even though it was my legal right, for the sake of peace and reconciliation of the Muslim congregation (ummah). Do you think that I shall then fight together with you?"[25]
Muawiyah did not comply with the terms of the treaty, saying to the people of Kufa, "do you think I have taken power to teach you? No, I have taken power and if any one of you tries to disagree with me he shall pay the costly price of the loss of his head." He carried out his ambition of keeping the power in his family by nominating his son Yazid as caliph after him. But the decision stirred widespread agitation, particularly amidst prominent personalities such as Hussain, Abdu'l-Rahman ibn Abu Bakr, Abdullah ibn Umar, Abdullah ibn al-Zubayr, Aisha and others.
Retirement to Medina[edit]
Hasan returned to Medina. According to Persian Shia historians ,[who?] Marwan ibn al-Hakam, the personal secretary to the third caliph Uthman ibn Affan who had fought against Ali during the Battle of Bassorah, was now the governor of Medina. Hasan lacked his moral support and had a hard time during his stay there after the peace treaty, with taunts and abuse from some of Muawiyah's followers and the anger of his supporters for having relinquished the caliphate.
On the other hand, Sunni historians[26] see the treaty as conferring great benefits on the Muslim Empire in years to come. Hasan has been quoted as commenting:
"If Muawiyah was the rightful successor to the caliphate, he has received it. And if I had that right, I, too, have passed it on to him; so the matter ends there."[27]
He donated all his belongings completely twice in his lifetime. Also, he divided his property between himself and the poor people equally three times .[28]
Events surrounding his death[edit]
Hasan ibn Ali died in Medina either on Safar 7th or 28th, 50 AH. He is buried at the famous Jannatul Baqee' cemetery across from the Masjid al-Nabawi (Mosque of the Prophet). According to historians, Muawiyah wished to pass the caliphate to his own son Yazid, and saw Hasan as an obstacle. According to the Shia sources he secretly contacted one of Hasan's wives, Ja'da bint al-Ash'ath ibn Qays, and incited her to poison her husband. Ja'da did as Muawiyah suggested, giving her husband poison mixed with honey.[29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36] Madelung notes other versions of this story, suggesting that Hasan may have been poisoned by another wife, the daughter of Suhayl ibn Amr, or perhaps by one of his servants, citing early historians (Baladhuri, Waqidi, etc.). Madelung from the Institute for Ismaili Studies in London believed that Hasan was poisoned but that the famous early Islamic historian al-Tabari suppressed this tale out of concern for the faith of the common people.[37]
Shia Muslims believe that Ja'da was promised gold and marriage to Yazid. Seduced by the promise of wealth and power, she poisoned her husband, and then hastened to the court of Muawiyah in Damascus to receive her reward. Muawiyah reneged on his promises and married her to another man.[38]
According to Encyclopedia Iranica:[39]
"Moʿāwiya would naturally be suspected of having a hand in a murder that removed an obstacle to the succession of his son Yazid which he was promoting, and, in any case, he did not try to hide his pleasure on news of Ḥasan's death."
Hasan had asked for his body to be taken to the prophet's grave, so that he could pay his last respect, and then to be buried near his mother Fatima bint Muhammad. This caused armed opposition. As the funeral proceeded towards the grave of Muhammad some Umayyads mounted on horses obstructed it. Some more recent Shia sources[which?] suggest that Aisha bint Abu Bakr appeared, riding a mule and shouting that the grave of Muhammad was in her house and she would not allow the grandson of Khadijah binte Khuwaylid to be buried beside Muhammad. A shower of arrows fell on the coffin. Sunni sources[which?] disagree with this.
Marwan was the governor of Madina at the time and objected on the grounds that Authman had not been allowed to be buried.
There is a detailed account of the events in Ibn Katheer's book Al-Bidayah wan-Nihayah:[40]
It is narrated that Jabir bin 'Abdullah saw al_Hasan bin Ali on the day of his death. Conflict almost broke out between al-Hasan bin Ali and Marwan bin al_Hakam after al_Hasan instructed his brother to bury him with the Messenger of Allah, but if some battle or mishap were to occur because of it then he should be buried with in al-Baqee. Marwan objected to allowing al-Hasan to be buried with the Messenger. In fact Marwan never ceased to be the enemy of the Banu Hashim tribe until his death. As Jabar recalls: "That day I spoke to Husain bin Ali to whom I said "O Abu Abdullah! Fear Allah for your brother did not like to see conflict. Therefore bury him in al-Baquee with his mother, so he did"[40]
Husayn, fulfilling the last wish of his brother, turned the procession of the funeral towards Jannat al-Baqi, the general graveyard of Medina, where he was buried. According to one version Marwan asked Muhammad's wife Aisha also to allow his relative Uthman ibn Affan to be buried beside the Prophet, but Aisha refused Marwan's request. No one else was buried beside Muhammad in Aishas house.[41]
According to Encyclopedia Iranica:[39]
"Marwān b. al-Ḥakam, who had been deposed the year before, swore that he would not allow Ḥa-san to be buried next to Moḥammad with Abu Bakr and ʿOmar as long as ʿOṯmān was buried in al-Baqiʿ...Moʿāwiya eventually rewarded Marwān for his stand by reappointing him governor of Medina "
When Aishas brother Muhammad ibn Abi Bakr was killed by the Ummayads[42] Aisha raised and taught her nephew Qasim ibn Muhammad ibn Abu Bakr. Qasim ibn Muhammad ibn Abu Bakrs mother was from Alis family and Qasims daughter Farwah bint al-Qasim was married to Muhammad al-Baqir and was the mother of Jafar al-Sadiq.
After Hasan's death his Iraqi followers wrote to Husayn pledging allegiance and proposing to remove Muawiya. However, Husayn refused, choosing to abide by the treaty between Hassan ibn Ali and Muawiyah, which could not be broken at that time.
The shrine containing Hasan's tomb was destroyed in 1925 during the conquest of Medina by al-Saud tribes.[43][44] This was part of a general destruction of memorials in cemeteries for religious reasons.[45] "In the eyes of Wahabis, historical sites and shrines encourage "shirq" – the sin of idolatry or polytheism – and should be destroyed."[45]

A show-and-tell of stolen goods from across the Southland may include something belongs to you.
Jewelry, kitchen utensils and cell phones are just some of the thousands of stolen items recovered by the LAPD during burglaries in five counties this year.
They were recovered as part of a knock-knock task force investigation into "fence" burglaries (That's the type of crime where crooks buy stolen property for re-sale).
After extensive surveillance and investigation, police arrested several suspects and recovered 11,000 stolen items.
If you live in Los Angeles, Ventura, Orange, Riverside or San Bernardino Counties and have been a victim of theft, go to the LAPD's website to take a look at the stolen items and then claim it.
